Forrester, Publisher oronio, Ontario LEST WýE FORGET The ana Decoration Day Se;ýrvice at Orono Cemetery is ~omedalefor- the simiple rao that people corne togeth er, upon ha,,llowed rond and devote somie ittie time and respect to loved -ns whnave g-.one before. Maniy of the foundation families ofClarke Towt i and 'Durhiam'Conty a large are represented among the namTes insicriibed ispoii the myonuflýiients dotting the green expause of this cemnetery ,vwhich has perhaps r-ig-itfully gaîned for itself the i-epTutationi of "ene of the most beautiful simali cemeteries in Ontarlo", In the horse and ugg days, we are told, seldom a day passed ,na the sumlmer without its quota of visitors. Folk brought their flow- er, t1ey spent a, littie finme in the quietude of this well kept portion ucf "Godl's Garden," as t1ihe E'nglish cail their cerncteries and they de- pas_,ted wiblh a stren-gtheingil of resolve through contact -with ithe mem- ory o,,fA those they had loved ami lost. Since ithe ahýove men tioned days weï have corne into an age of callous commercialization., Motor cars whskthor ~assegem ovr rods hic were founIded by slow, Pain- fnl abo on the prtofe -very Inea wl-bo rest beeatte eine- tory sod. 'The lact that theso mnen (anýd thewoe too) plineered a great county and a grc'at pi'oviince does flot enter the p-icture. We, their successors, travol uponrube and finely iiphlolstered sea-tS, Ours is an age of hurry and bustle, About thleoroly turn e w devote to the comtory is rwhen the domand of a fuoabeokon ius, Faa even then our response-is perfunctory to say the loasit. Theo re still the faithful few #hbo visit- the family plot witbegularit Y, andwh plant or place flowers upon the graves. Thes-e few-ware becrmting fewer stili as time goes on. 'Therefore, we s;eo somethiiiug of the worthiness of decoration day, 'Our people willhv that o0ppor- tuaity of makiag arnends for the aeglect of thopat. They will gather and pay homage to those who bulit farmiis, homes and roads, witbout the comforts of1 motor cars, hydro and fine cIethes, Two things which would add to the present day prtacýticabiý,ity and7 heauty of the cemetery would Ibe an irrigation system fo-r water- Ing, and a chapol for the use of funeral gatherings. PIerbýaps des- cendanits of some of the pioneers of this county could go tog-ether and.set up a memorial of this -nature. Again, some well dlisp)osedand well blessed person might either take came of one or the othor in its, entirety, or else head up a fund from xuhieh the necessariy -objective could be reached, Presont day customs have clhaaged oýur habits anld our outlook urithings geaemally. iSo far they have not chaaged the came and devotion xvhich bave ibeen bestowed upon Omonio Cemietery- throughout the years. That "exýtra mile" could be traversed-easily enough whoreby !the cemetery wo-(uld bo still more truly termed "one. of the most beautiful in Ontario."
