The annual services in memory of our soldier dead were held in the Opera House on Sunday morning and a large attendance of old vetersns, W. R. C. ladies and citizens were present. Rev.

I. B. Heisey preached the sermon, taking for his text this verse, "These Stones shall be for a Memorial," Josh. 11. His remarks were most impressive.

He claimed that these memorial occasions were not intended to keep alive the camp fires of war but to stimulate patriotism. The nature and necessity of patriotism were set forth with emphasis. He called attention to important features of our history, and to the vastness of our land and its resources as a stimulus to patriotism, closing his remarks by saying that the standard of liberty folded itself naturally about the standard of Christianity, and called upon all old soldiers to enlist in the army of the King Emanuel and to be ready for the grand review before the Captain of our salvation. It was a sermon which could not fail to make its import felt, especially to the old veterans whom he specially addressed. A choir of the different churches sang several On Wednesday afternoon the old veterans, members of the W.

R. C. and school children met at Fraternity Hall, and headed by the Drum Corps marched to Riverside Cemetery, where the usual program was given at. the monument erected to the unknown dead. Both G.

A. R. and W. R. C.

took part in this ceremony. After the floral tributes had been been placed to the memory of the vast army of unknown heroes, the school children marched in squads around the cemetery and placed their garlands of flowers on the graves of those who lie buried in Riverside. The Lutheran choir sang several selections and Mr. A. T.

Bennett sang a solo especially composed for the occasion for the W. R. C. For about 20 years Decoration Day has been observed in Waterville but the interest in the annual tribute to our soldier dead never lessens. Shirck-Lawson.

During Rev. I. B. Heisey's short stay in Atchison last week he had the pleasant duty assigned to him of reading the marriage ceremony which united Rev. Fred Ross Shirck and Miss Cora May Lawson.

The wedding was a very quiet affair and took place at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. W. J. Hooper, 409 South 6th. They will leave at once for Whitewater, where a nice home awaits them.

Rev. Shirck has been serving the church at that city for some time and is held in the highest esteem by his parishioners. No doubt a very pleasant reception awaits their arrival. Waterville friends extend congratulations. Advertised Letter List.
