Marshall Co. AARP To Hear Sheriff Ed Criswell Today The Marshall County Chapter of AARP on May 25th in celebration of Older Americans Month, is presenting as guest speaker, Sheriff Ed Criswell.

AARP’s vision statement, "Bringing Lifetime Os Experience And Leadership To Serve All Ages”, emphasizes that everyone in the community — no matter what the age — benefits from that service.

Merry Widow? A lonely lady had been married four times, first to a banker, then to an actor, then to a minister and finally to an un-

dertaker. When asked why she had married so often, the lady replied, "One for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go!”. My nephew had just started first grade. His dad asked how he liked going to school. “Oh,” he replied, "That dumb old teacher is always trying to teach me something I don’t know”.

We do not know what books you read, what gave you pleasure or release, what poems you thought but never said — we only know you died for peace. We do not know so many things, but you must know (somehow, somewhere) your dream of peace still spreads its wings above our heads and hovers there. TAPS: Day is done, gone the sun From the hills, from the lake from the skies. All is well, safely rest, God is high. The above is in tribute to the men and women who served in the military of the United States, some never to return to their home. We remember them especially on this Memorial Day, 1995. The history of “Taps” may not be known to some so is related here. Taps is

used by the military to mark flag lowering at the end of the day, to mark “lights out and all to bed” at night, and to mark the end of life at a burial. Union Civil War General Daniel Adams Butterfield, in 1862, while bivouacked along the James River near Richmond, Virginia, was depressed from the heat, humidity, rains, mud, mosquitoes, dysentery, typhoid and general wretchedness from having lost so many comrades. From his humming and whistling since he did not know music, he had an aide record the sad, melodious call, Taps. He asked buglar Oliver W. Norton, then 22 years old, of Chicago, to use it instead of the regulation call to “Extinguish Lights” at night. Taps were used at burials instead of rifle volleys which were often mistaken by Confederate soldiers as an attack. In 1874, Taps, was adopted officially by the U.S. Army. Butterfield had risen to the rank of major general in 43 battle actions.
