Ifdacha W jtichisi'i PlMs By JOHN oiekmsofrtfitiiiii HAT new American Shrine, the tomb of the "Unknown Dead" lB the Arlington National Cemetery will bulk large In the public consciousness Memorial Day. To It on Armistice Day turns the people's heart Now It will be the epitome of the people's observance of Memorial Day. None the will the people strew flowers for remembrance on graves of Blue and Qray and Khaki In every nook and cranny of the land. But the official recognition of the services of its patriotic eons will be made Memorial Day by the placing of a wreath on the tomb of the "Unknown Dead" In front of the amphitheater at Arlington. President Coolldge and members of his cabinet will place that wreath. And President Coolldge will make the address of the day. And this Is eminently fitting. For Memorial Day and Armistice Day not only touch but overlap. On Memorial Day we Americans assemble to commemorate our soldier dead--to express our thanks for their service, by recounting their deeds of valor, by making new resolves to make ourselves worthy of their name and fame. Unstinted and unashamed la oar hero worship Memorial Day. And this is well. Time Is kindly la that It heals all wounds. But time is not kindly If It also brings forgetfulness of the glorious past. What was worth fighting for Is worth remembering. We are not a warlike nation, hat there Is no fighting man like the American fighting man. The Stars and 8tripes has never been lowered in defeat. We won our Independence by fighting for It. We have kept It by lighting for It So on Memorial Day we celebrate the deeds of oar lighting men. Yet the spirit of Memorial Day is not war hot peace. Its purpose la not to awaken memorlea of war and slaughter, nor to rekindle hateful Area of passion, nor to exult over the defeated. We weep because the dead are ours. We thrill pride because they are ours. We rejoice that they are In God's keeping. We should resolve anew to dedicate the wealth and power and Influence of the nation to liberty. Justice, humanity and peace. Doubtless the President will make a notable address. The scene and the occasion are Inspiring. It is said that he accepted the Invitation to speak with thanks. Certainly the opportunity Is great For all the world will listen snd take heed to his words. It is known how ardently he desires peace With honor for all the world. In his Inaugural address he said: But thers la Another eteopant, more Important than all, without which thare cannot be the *1l(kt- •st hop* of a permanent peace. That element Ilea In the heart of humanity. Unleaa the deBlre for pace be cherished there, unless this fundamental and only natural aource of brotherly love be cultivated to Its highest degree, all artificial efforts will be In vain. Peace"»wiU come where there la realisation that only under a reign of law, baaed on righteousness and supported by the religious conviction of the brotherhood of man. can there be any hope of a complete and satisfying Mfe. Parchment will fall, the eword will fall--It Is only the spiritual nature of man that can be triumphant. And is It known that President Coolldge bellevaa In action rather than words to bring about world peace. He is making preparations looking to the calling of a second arms conference at Washington. The first succeeded in abolishing competitive naval armament among the great powers. The coming conference, it is believed, will begin where the last left off. And the President received at the White House the delegates to the recent Conference on the Cause and Cure of War by organized woman and said to them, among other things: Tour conference has been brought together to oonaider the causes and cure of war. In our generation, which has seen the supreme demonstration of the futility and the horrors of war, we ought to be able to count upon an overwhelming sentiment for measures which give reasonable promise of preventlnK or limiting wars. As our vision of Its frightfulness Is dimmed, ae the edge of its horror Is dulled with the passing of time, we may expect a corresponding diminution of seal for inetltutione to prevent war. This is; unfortunate, but It is the leeeon taught by all experience For thla very reason, every organised movement to keep alive the realisation of war'e destructlvenesa serves a helpful purpose. If, for the next hundred years, the men and women who fought and suffered to carry on the World war and who were compelled afterward to struggle and sacrifice to pay for it. could survive and keep alive the proper realisation of what war really means, the chance of formulating programa to prevent Its repetition would be greatly improved. But thoae who lived and saw and felt and knew these things will pass on. They will be succeeded by others to whom a distorted picture of glory « heroism will make its appeal. So It la particularly to be desired that measures be instituted as soon as possible by the men and women who know the truth about war, which may save the future from such experiences as have eome In oar time. It la for the generation which eaw and survived to devise measure of preveatlee. tt we tall la this, «S shall deserve all the disaster Which win sure# be visited upon us. because of our failure. " Surely no ffiore fitting place can be found fof official recognition of the spirit of Memorial Day by the United States Government than this National Shrine at Arlington., It thrills every g°od American who stands by it Back of it Is the great white marble amphitheater, built for patriot!# gatherings of the people and impressive beyond words in quality of material, simplicity of design and perfection of proportions. In front lies th^ smiling Potomac Valley, with the winding river, and beyond the Capital City of the nation, with the George Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial und the Capitol Itself In plain view. And the tomb Itself is more than a memorial to „ the "Unknown Soldier"--to the American Fighting Man who gave his life to his country, it symbolizes far more than this. It Is a symbol of every patriotic service rendered by a loyal peopl* It symbolizes the soldier who never got beyond the training camp "Over Here"; the woman who tolled at Red Cross bandages; the children whe went witbont sugar. It la as symbolic aa the Flag ItaeU: Bea fights and land fighta. grim and great, * -• Fought to make and to save the state; t:<.'**Vffcveery marches and sinking ships; ?heers of victory on dying lips; >aya of plenty and years of peace; larch of a strong land's swift lacrcaaet Squal Justice, right and law; Stately honor and reverent awe; jllgn of a nation, great and strong o ward her people from foreign ride and glory and honor--all tve in the Colore to stand or falL * ' And Memorial Day to the American peopla means all these things. President Harding Bald this in a different way when the body of the "Unknown Soldier" was placed In the tomb at Arlington. Fitting worda they were Indeed: We do not know the eminence of hla birth, but we do know the glory of hla death. He died for hla country, and greater devotion hath no maa than thia. He died unqueationlng. uncomplaining, with faith In his heart and hope on his lips, that his country should triumph and Its civilisation survive. As a typical soldier of this representaUve democracy, he fought and died, believing in the Indisputable justice of his country's cause. . We gather him to the Nation s breast, within the shadow of the capltol, of the towering shaft that honore Washington, the great father, and of the exquisite monument to ' Lincoln, the martyred savior. Here the Inspirations of yesterday and the conscience of today forever unite to make the republic worthy of his death for Flag and country. gome day this Arlington National Cemetery will be as much a part of the Capital as if it were on the other side of the Potomac. For the United States Government has bfegun work on the Arlington Memorial Bridge, for which congress has authorized the appropriation of $15,000,000. Five years will see the completed bridge nnd ten years the completed project. Then the official funeral cortege of the great will move from the Capltol to Arlington Amphitheater over a way worthy of the occasion. An extension will link up Mount Vernon, where lies George Washington, who directed the planning of the city that bears his name. In Arlington lies Major L'Enfant who under Washington planned the city destined to be the most . beautiful in the world. Also In Arlington stands the Washington-Lee Mansion, to be restored; Ai^ llngton, as everyone knows, was the home of Robert E. Lee, which he left when he followed Virginia out of the Union. And in Arlington sleepa "Fighting Joe" Wheeler, the dashing Confederate cavalry leader who wore the Blue at West Point and on The Plains, the Gray on many a hardfought battlefield of tile Civil War. and the Khaki In the Spanish-American War. The Potomac was the dividing line in the Civil War between the North and South; many a time Lincoln, under the Stars and Stripes #of the White House. ^ Stars and Bars defiantly waving on the Virginia T,l» maJcstlc .«- "'«• the Arlington Memoria!

This la a Christian nation. "In God we trust" Is on our coins. Presidents from Washington to Coolldge have made emphatic public declaration of belief In the interposition of Divine Providence in great moments that shaped our destiny. The dedication of this War Cross, as the photograph shows, was purely military. Perhaps the meaning of the services was that this Nation trusts In God, Is dedicated to liberty and peace, and does not wage aggressive war for selfish purpose or conquest and through the prowess of its fighting men has never known defeat "Tsps" is blown by the bugler In memory of the glorious dead. Memorial Day will see this War Cross heaped high with flowers, symbolical of the gentler emotions that •bund out the observance of the national holiday. Mayhap some will lay flowers on the War Cross |B memory of the devoted women who deserve well af their country no leas than the lighting men. Exceedingly fitting would that be. Mid the flower-wreathed tombs I Staad Bearing lilies In my hand. Comrades: In what soldier grave Sleeps the bravest ef the bra vet Turning from my comrades' eyee. Kneeling where a woman lias, I etrew lilies on the grave Of the bravest of the brave. So wrote Thomas W. Hlgglnson many years ago. And no truer word was ever penned. For a brave heart is a brave heart, though its courage may differ in kind. A brave heart In a man's breast hastens him to the firing line A brave heart in a woman's breast bids him "God speed." And Often the woman'a lot Is the harder and her sacrifice the greater. In the World War woman showed that her courage was like to man's by going Into service as near the front as she could get. Yet often it took no less courage to atay at home. Arlington will never be complete without a great memorial to woman'a devoted service In time of national emergency. Admiral George Dewey no longer rests In Arlington. His body has been transferred from the cemetery mausoleum to the Washington cathedral. where President Wilson also sleepa. The removal was made by authority of the War department upon request of his widow. The body will rest In the crypt of Bethlehem chapei until an adequate memorial can be built in the cathedral. Admiral Dewey was for many years a devoted member of the chapter of Washington cathedral. The services were affecting. The widow, now eighty, was tenderly assisted by Secretary Wilbur and was escorted by the old admirals-- Badger. Rodman, Eberle, Hilary Jones, Wood, and Coivocoresses, all of whom were with Dewey at Manila. Harding will hot sleep In Arlington. His last resting place will be near Marion, his home town. The Harding Memorial association has raised $800.000--of which $000,000 will be used for a mausoleum, $100,000 for the purchase of land and $100,000 as a fund for the perpetual care and maintenance of the memorial. The National Fine Arts commission has asked that designs be prepared under the direction of the award committee composed of Paul Cret of Philadelphia. Edgerton Swartwout. New York; John Russell Pope, New York, and Henry Hornbostel of Pittsburgh. The design to be finally adopted must have the aDDroval of a special committee of which Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, Secretary of Wpr Weeks and Charles M. Schwab are members. On this Memorial Day of 1925 pay tribute of flowers to the soldier dead at home; wear a poppy. made by disabled ex-service men. In memory of those sleeping "Over There." and give thanks yon are an American citizen I New Proposition to Make Desert Useful The suggestion was made recently that the Sahara might become the greatest power-station in the world by the utilization of the heat of its countless miles of burning sand. This is a new idea in the way Of making the desert useful; but when we remember how electrical power is obtained from water, as in the case of Niagara, and even from the wind, this latest suggestion cannot be dismissed as Impracticable. It is certainly unlikely that the deserts of the world will be permitted to remain indefinitely as they are at present. New territory Is constantly |>eing opened up in the search for new Sources of food and raw materials, the latest development in this direction being a plan for making the French possessions In the Sudan into a great cotton-growing and cattle-raising coun- Duty of Literature That the world Is "seething with scoundrels of both sexes" is true. Human nature is Imperfect, and therefore it would be strange to see on earth none but the righteous. To believe that It is the duty of literature to dig out "pearls" from the heap of scoundrels is to reject literature itself. Fiction Is called artistic because it draws life as it actually is. Its aim Is absolute and honest truth. To narrow Its function to the special task of digging for "pearls" is Just as deadly for It as If you were to make Levltan paint a tree and ordered him not to Include the dirty bark nor the yellow leaves.-- From the "Life and Letters of Anton Tchekkov," by S. S. Kobellansky and Philip Tomllnson. Alright dlfNtlVA •limiaativi inproTt* loato Easy to Demonstrate The problem of the revolution of a wheel may be explained by the fact that the top is moving forward In the direction in which the vehicle is progressing, while the bottom is moving backward or in an opposite direction. To demonstrate this in a practical way, take a coin, mark points at the top and botton as A and B. Make a mark at the starting point directly beneath A and B upon whatever surface the coin Is to be rolled. Roll the coin forward a quarter revolution. It will be seen that A moves upon a radius equal to the diameter of the circle and by actual measurement A has moved a greater distance and described a greater curve than B. Expert Repairing We have heard a good deal of late years of Invisible mending, and It Is a fact that some of the experts in this work can repair the worst rents in tweeds or stuffs without leaving a trace of their handiwork. The most remarkable feat In this direction stands to the credit of the Gobelin tapestry factory In Paris. Some years ago the priceless tapestry representing the entry of Louis XIV Into Dunkirk was stolen, and when recovered had been cut Into a dozen pieces.

Day of Two Thomases The annual festival of St. Thomas takes place always on the shortest day of the year. It is said to have been placed on that particular day to punish him for his unbelief.

It Is a real ghost and has been photographed, one snapshot showing a dim figure against a pillar where ordinary photographs reveal no such appearance.

On Memorial day the minds of thoughtful Americana are turned toward the ceremonies at Washington •nd what they represent. The Lincoln memorial, built beside the Potomac to stand for agea. Is dedicated by a grateful nation to that commander In chief who In life kept the nation from Screaking and who, dying for his country, brought Its people closer together Ljpaa tbag had beetr*# >snlgh generation. What Lincoln tried to do In life baa been completed by tt>£ healing years. In the rites this Memorial day there Is no sectionalism. When a nation Is so united in spirit why should It not be completely united In the form of observing Memorial day? It is true that the day originated In a deal re to honor only the men who Ml for the Union, but we have gone «rax ended what little sectional feeling remained. The great war made more graves upon which the wreath of gratitude must fall. We cannot set the Civil war apart from the wars before it or after It when It comes to doing honor to the dead. Sentiment knows no technicalities. What this nation should do la to make one day for our soldier dead. Let it be called Decoration day or Memorial day--the name matters little. And let there be no lines of time or section. Let the nation, through •*M^pRiilMgplN?a congress or the action of the states, establlab a day In each year for the commemoration of all Americans who died In war. Only one possible difficulty appears and that, we think. Is unreal. Some of the states of the Confederacy observe their Memorial day at times different from the majority of the Unlon. Several choose April 28; South Carolina takes May 10; Tennessee June 8. Let the men who fought on both sides of the Civil w*r agree on one day for both Qray and Blue.--Washington 8tar. "Limited1* Railway Trains The word "limited" as applied to trains came Into use about the time of the Civil war. Originally the only Ilm- ' itlng feature of the "limited train" was the number of cars to be drawn. Now "limited" Is applied to trains running a certain distance, carrying only a limited number of cara and prescribing the accommodations that can be given each passenger, for which an increased fare is charged. Such trains are Invariably fast trains. Consequently "limited train" has become synonymous, popularly speaking, with "fast train."--Pathfinder Migadlk BELLAHS Hot water SureRetaf Nothing Visible She was a freshman from Vassar.
