MANY GRAND ARMY VETERANS MARCHED TO THE FRIENDS CHURCH UNDER SHADOW

OF OLD GLORY SUNDAY TO ENGAGE IN SERVICES.

HAVE FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT

And Deserve All the Honors That Can Be Heaped Upon Them—A Splendid Sermon and Music Commemorate Deeds of Our Heroes,

The remnant of that vast army of valiant youths who went out from Hancock county, leaving their homes and families to fight, to starve, to die, if called upon, in defense of their country, met again Sunday morning to engage in their memorial services f^r those of their comrades who fell on .the battlefield or have since answered the summons that was, hastened in many cases because of wounds received or hardships and privations endured while engaged in that awful struggle half a century ago.

Every year the ranks prow thinner, the hair whiter and the once straight, strong forms more bent and enfeebled. And still, as they marched proudly in the shadow of Old Glory from their Post Room to the Friends church, one could, without much effort, people their ranks with young men, strong and vigorous, and in their imigination see them following the flag to the bloody battlefields, bravely, proudly, willingly sacrificing every personal ambition that they might present this country to their children, a free country. As these few remaining veterans marched they were accompanied by the ladies of the ladies' auxiliary to the G. A. R. and seats were reserved in the church for all.

While the scene was a sad one in a way, still it was one in which all were proud to engage who love their country, for honoring the heroes, dead and living, is not a task, but a privilege.

As the gray locks of the veterans were uncovered at the command of their officer of the day and they were seated, the organ and voices were blended in the music of two beautiful and inspiring hymns, and these were followed by a number by the Imperial Male Quartet from Indianapolis. Rev. Mrs. Harrold read the scripture lesson and Rev. J. W. Loder, one of the veterans, offered a prayer for God's blessing upon those who have lost their lives because of the war, for the few remaining veterans, for the country and for the state. When the quartet sang the old song beloved by all the old soldiers, "Tenting on the Old Camp Ground," tears came to the eyes of the wThite-haired men, as their minds were made to travel back over a period of half a century ago to again live in the scenes so real to them, but which are only history to the present generation.

The sermon of Mrs. Harrold was based on the words of Paul, spoken at the close of his wonderful and fruitful career, "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." The text was an appropriate one for this memorial occasion and not only did it commemorate the deeds oi the dead comrades of those sitting before her, but they, too, were included for the good fight they have fought, the course almost finished, and the plea was that they might keep the faith.

In opening her address, Mrs. Harrold said: "It is with a real heart welcome that we greet the members of the Grand Army of the Republic and of the Woman's Relief Corps," and that sentiment was echoed in every hart who heard, for the Grand Army Veterans stimulate a true patriotic spirit in the young.

The sermon was full of uplifting thoughts, clothed and expressed in beautiful language and at the close

This is a powerful story of life on the Montana cattle ranges. It is a novel of elemental power in which passion plays unrestrained.

MUSIC AND FLOWERS OF IKE DEAD

Knights of Pythias and Uniform Rank Hear Address and Scatter Flowers Over Graves of Deceased Members.

The Knights of Pythias and Uniform Rank observed their memorial service Sunday afternoon in an appropriate manner. At the hall an address was heard and a musical program rendered. The members then formed in line and, preceded by the Greenfield Military Band, they marched to Park cemetery, where the ritualistic service for the dead was held at the mound. The graves of deceased members were then covered with the season's choicest flowers by a committee appointed to look after this part of the program. While there was a fair representation of the orders in line, counter attractions claimed some and the attendance was not as good as usual on these occasions.

EA! LOIS OF FRUIT IF YOU WANT HEALTH

Lecturer Gives Nature's Cures For Disorders Common in Summer —A Fruit Fast is Strongly Recommended.

W. Earl Flynn, who is lecturing in churches on the subject of health says in his talks that if the schools taught more of good food values and the care of the body and not so much science that does not enter into every day life, the people would be greatly benefited, says the Indianapolis News. Man must learn by study what the animals know by instinct about what is the best food to eat under certain conditions, he says. In his lectures he tells of the medical value of some of the common fruits and vegetables.

Nothing is better, he says, for colds, fevers, rheumatism, throat trouble, pimples, liver trouble, and a tired feeling, than the juice of two or three lemons taken without sugar daily. Sugar should be used as little as possible in these diseases. Pineapple juice with no sugar is the best remedy for indigestion, while for a nervous temperament onions, cooked or raw, are good. The kidneys have a great friend in spinach and asparagus. An effective remedy for neuralgia, nervous dyspepsia and rheumatism is to chew the green leaves of celery and also the roots when boiled to a pulp.

In summer, when the blood is hot and you are troubled with insomnia, chew the green leaves of lettuce. Beets and cranberries are good for the blood, when eaten raw. Instead of taking calomel for the liver, eat a skinned tomato. This will cure sick headache. Apples are good for disordered nerves and grapes are good for malaria, although the seeds and skin should be discarded. Fresh ripe peaches have a medical effect on the kidneys. Orange juice plays an important part with the kidneys and liver.

Blackberries will cure a case of dysentery in a few hours, while strawberries aggravate a case of rheumatism or indigestion. Figs, dates, prunes and raisins should be eaten for constipation, and also where candy or sugar have caused acidity or nervousness. A fruit fast that is, living on fruit alone one day out of every week, will be of great value during the summer, he says.

General Good Time.

Clarence Barr, Preston Wilson, Raymond Orr, Jesse Hughes, and George Ramsey, who have been camping on Sugar Creek, west of this city, for two weeks, have about decided to spend the summer there. They have a nice summer cottage and are taking a great deal of pleasure in "batching" it. While all the young men work in this city, they remain every night and have their supper and breakfast at their summer cottage and from their wellfed, satisfied appearance, they are first class cooks. One of their chief sources of pleasure is fishing in Sugar Creek and they report some fine catches of bass and other kinds of fish. They took charge of the cottage with the intention of remaining only a couple of weeks, but the experience has been so pleasant that they cannot decide to give it up.
