The Sorlulisl part) in (‘ouueetlrl‘ll
has adopted u resolution under the

ty serving iu the militia may be ex-
pelled. The resolution does not apply
'-to those already enlisted. until their
terms expire. This notion hppnreutly
7 grows out of the frequent. use of the
militia in labor tlifilt-ultles, and uutrks
vice in labor circles. For sometime the

must be relied upon in time of war
“could be‘reserved for that purpose.
' The use of the soldiers us peace oili-
cers has undoubtedly tit-graded the
service and made it ulmiensttul to
many who would be glad to enlist for
inaliousl defense.
‘ If the military tlrnty were rolled out

exists. and for the more purpose of

«Service in the militia ought not to
{be lur utputiblc with honorable mem-
bership in a civic body. The Social-
ists would have done better to point
out the abuse of the system. rather
than attempt its destruction. The SD-
ciulists surely do not claim that the
need of armed ostnblishtneuts is post.
and that the dnttger of war is at. on

Editor Sentinel : —-
Memorial Day, 1912. with all that it
meant to our country is again but his-
tory. The citizens of Norwalk did
credit to the town. an honor to them
selves, and showed a well deserved
mark of respect to the Grand Army
of the Republic and their dead heroes.
Memorial Day is osmium: more and
more every year It day of frivollty
hilarity and sociability. instead of the
real intent of the day. a memorial re-
verencofor'thohation's deed. and sin.
eero respect to the nation's- living
hordes of" their Wilton.
The. changing attitude of the perv
plo toward our national holidays and
our devotional observance days is be-
coming a serious consideration. There
seems to be u growing demand among
a set of fastidious and another set of
avaricions peOple. to do away with the
object of thrice I days as they term it
for a 'iSttneEr‘onrth of July, It Sane
Gmd Friday; and u soon Memorial
Duy" and soon pcrhups it will be a
noun Thanksgiving tiny and a sane
Christmas day. It would seem to a
mind that hns nut entered into the
coutureheuslhlllly of the fullness of
the development of the more modern
wisdom, thul this is un iusnue project

whence it was dlggcd by the patriotic
hands and sacrificial blood of our
forefathers n hundred and thirty-five
years nan. And when we allow mer-
cantile urarielousnsss and bullish
greed and pleasure. to take the place
of the true spirit of “Memorial day."
it is smiling a death blow to the pet»
rtottc devotion and letting lire so out
upon the altar whose burning influ-
ence line kept alive the memory .-of
thesnerlitcinlf binod of our fathers
and grundfathhrs to preserve the un-
ion nnd mainthin our American lilnr-
ty. "Memorial day" means more than
n holiday and a day's pleasure for the
working people. it means more than
the strewing of the graves of our lov-
ed ones who were in the‘ rebellion.
which is n uteri: of respect to be com-
mended to no small extent. it means
moro titan the towns‘und cities to up-
propriulo a small pittance to assist
the old soldiers to show respect to
their dead comrades once u year by
martial music and a parade such as
was had on Monday laat, which was
a plan-urn to the people and a credit
to our commonwealth. it. means more
than opening and advertising summer
resorts on the 30th of May every year.
It means something to evs'ry individ-
ual on Ameridsn loll; yea, it means
something to every people of every
nation in both 1hethisphercs. it means
the commemoration of s victory ach-
ieved such as' the world has never
