More than anyone, they have either suffered its consequences or been more cloeely aware of them than others. o Memorial day is a reminder of those consequences. A strong sensitivity to what war is all about, and a con­ tinuing pride in the men and women who represented us in the past, may be the best deterrents individual citizens have at their disposal to avoid future conflicts. Contrary to some opinions, a loyalty to our veterans, and to what they stand for, has nothing to do with a warmonger. With this in mind, wouldn't it give all of us a good feeling to line the streets, and fill the park, next Monday as we honor our veterans' in the ob­ servance of Memorial day 1882?
