OMAHA HONORS
MEMORY OF ITS
SOLDIER DEAD
Graves of Fallen Heroes Deco
rated During Morning and
Eulogies Pronounced at
Afternoon Meeting.
When committees of men and
women visited Omaha cemeteries
yesterday to decorate the graves of
departed soldiers, they found there
had been placed on scores of
mounds, the last resting places of
men who gave their lives on fields
of battle, small American flags.
Delegations representing the
Grand Army of the Republic, Spanish-American
war veterans and oth
er patriotic organizations, yesterday
visited the various local burying
grounds, and on each soldier's grave
they placed a miniature national em
blem. 'Assemble in Auditorium.
The program at the Auditorium
began at 2:30 o'clock. Rev. Mr.
Young paid eloquent tribute to the
memory of the men who fought in
the war between the states. He re
ferred in glowing terms to the valor
of the American soldiers who fought
and died in the trenches of the
great world war and declared that
the principle which actuated the
heroes of the '60's to defend the
union was identical with that which
prompted America to respond to the
cry of outraged Europe-
Music by the band and numbers
by the grand army quartet also was
included in the program.
Women of the Grand Army of the
Republic visited the cemeteries and
decorated the graves of the unknown
dead with flags and flowers.
Lee Pixley Speaks.
Garfield circle No. 11 visited For
est Lawn cemetery in the forenoon
for this ceremony. "Assembly" was
blown by the buglers and the invo
cation was pronounced by Rev. Aus
tin. The address was delivered by
Lee Pixley. The Misses Philpott
sang a duet. Solos were rendered
by Miss Daisy Higgins and Mrs.
Holtman. Mrs. Camelia Elliott gave
a reading.
Graves were decorated by sailors,
Boy Scouts and members of the
Omaha drum corps. Attorney John
Berger was marshal of the day.
A special ceremony for the boys
who died at seti was held at 5 o'clock
in Hanscom Park. A. F. Church
hill v delivered the address and the
singing was led by Charles W.
Campbell of the Y. M. C. A.
Escorted by eight little girls, a
boat will be launched on the lake
by sailors. The women of the
Grand Army of the Republic had
charge of the ritualistic services.
The South Side Memorial day
services were in charge of Phil
Kedrney Post No. 2, and the Worn-
Nebraska D. S.-C. Hero Was
Under Barrage for 8 Hours
Ed Sittler Decorated by General Pershing for Giving
First Aid to 25 Men While He WasvWounded Him
self in Battle of Mauthanville Woods Near Verdun.
One of the most modest men of
the 341st Machine Gun company was
one of the bravest on October 24,
1918, when his company was under
a barrage from 7 a. m. until 3 p. m.
in Bauthanville woods, near Verdun.
A newspaper man in quest of a
"feature" early yesterday morning
went to the train where the machine
gunners were waiting to be called to
parade. Several were asked who of
their number had won a distinctive
honor.
"Go and see Ed Sittler; he's the
guy you want to talk to," one of the
gunners said.
Sittler was found and was per
suaded to talk.
Decorated by Pershing.
"Jack Pershing pinned that dis
tinguished service cross on me at
Trier, Germany, on April 23, of this
year," he said.
Mr. littler was an undertaker at
Merna, Neb., before he went into the
service. He was No. 1 man on a
machine gun on October 24 when
he suffered a wound in his leg and
hip.
"Our medic was killed and two
privates also killed close to me in
an hour. Twenty-three of our com
pany weve wounded. I gave first aid
"to 25 of our men and also dressed
my own wounds. Then I was in a
hospital at Paris two months," he
related.
John Goodenow, 4322 North Thirty-third
street, was in the hospital
with Sittler and was one of the
men who received first aid attendance.
Ed Sittler.
Sittler stated that John Harmon
of Omaha was the first man of his
company to be killed, his death oc
curring in the St. Mihiel drive.
"One of my ears went 'kopoot'
during that terrific barrage," added
Sittler. He said that after he is
discharged he is going to visit his
mother at Rode, la., and then re
turn to Omaha for a few days' visit.
He then expects to return to his
business at Merna, Neb.
en's Relief Corps No.v 143, Sons of
Veterans, Spanish-American War
veterans and World War veterans
also took part in the program. Visits
were made to the four cemeteries on
the South Side and the graves were
decorated with flowers and flags.
A more or less facetious friend has asked just what we mean when
we advertise "5 Good Drug Stores." Our answer was and is r
Stores that in almost every instance supply all the articles desired
by their customers and of standard quality and undoubted
genuineness a service adequate as to quantity and quality and
lastly at prices as low as are afforded in this market. Such stores
are the Sherman & McConnell "Rexall Drug Stores."

Sqldiers Advised to
Convert War Risks
Into Other Insurance
Few people realize the dangers
of peace-time life," says Ed. Wol
verton, New York Life insurance
agent. "There are more people
killed each year in the United
States from automobile and railroad
accidents than were killed in the
United States army during the re
cent war.
"Young men should not fail to
hold on to their war risk insurance
and convert it into one of the six
kinds offered them. All that is nec
essary is to write to the Treasury
department, Bureau of War Risk
Insurance, Washington, giving the
number of the present policy and
stating what kind of permanent in
surance is desired.
"Some young men say they have
no .one dependent on them and
therefore need no insurance. They
have their own prespective disabil
ity to look to. Out of 100 healthy
men 26 years old, 36 will die before
they reach 65; one will be rich, four
will be fairly prosperous, five will
be supporting themselves and 54
will be dependent on others if they
have no insurance."
Mr. Wolverton says he will be
glad to give personal advice to any
soldier who wants to know how to
convert his war risk insurance into
permanent insurance.

City went over with the 355th in

the famous 89th division when it
first.pushed forward in a major com
bat operation. "Give the boys the
credit, don't mention me," he mod
estly said.
Maj. Gen. John Winn, who as
sumed command when Maj. Gen.
Leonard Wood was relieved, was
with the men. He was promoted
while overseas.
"We're proud of our boys," Col
onel Brown remarked to Governor
McKelvie and newspaper men com
ing in from Des Moines today.
"They fought many battles without a
rest."
"They say farmers around Omaha
are rich these days," remarked one
of the men while coming in their
train. "I'm going back to the farm.
I've seen New York and Paris, but
I love the cows and chickens, and;
say, I'm strong for good old Nebraska."
The boys made the most of the
time during the ride through Iowa.
At Valley Junction, two miles out
of Des Moines, they crowded around
the telegraph operator and asked:
"How is Iowa?" ''Do they still
milk the cows in Iowa?" "How is
my best girl?"
Colored Baptists in
Drive to Raise Money
to Complete Church
A dinner was tendered last night
i Zion Baptist church (colored) to
a number of white people prepara
tory to launching a drive for $10,000
to complete the church at Twenty
second and Grant street. The guests
were :
David Cole, I. W. Carpenter, G.
W. Noble, J. A. Sunderland, M. D.
Cameron, E. H. Hoel. R. B. Evans,
H. H. Baldridge. W. W. Head, Mm
L. Webster, A. C. Busk, A. M. Wind,
Rev. A. A. DeLarme, Rev. Floyd
Whitcomb, E- R. Curtis. The
wives of some of these were pres
ent. The dinner was served by the
colored members of the church.
"This church has made remark
able progress in raising money to
build," said A. C. Busk. "They have
had the basement constructed for
some time and it is paid for. Within
the last seven weeks they have
raised $10,800 among themselves.
This is not in pledges, but in cash.
They walk up to a table and lay
down greenbacks, silver, Liberty
bonds, checks. The money is in
cash in the bank. .
"And now they are going out to
raise the other $10,000 and I believe
they will do it. The church is to
have reading rooms, bath rooms and
everything that an up-to-date church
for colored people needs."

Rev. Ernest Vincent Shayler,

- Cathedral Sunday.
Rev. Ernest Vincent Shayler,
rector of St. Mark's church. Seattle.
Wash.; who was elected bishop of
the Episcopal diocese of Nebraska
last week, is by no means certain
that he will accept the place. He
was in consultation with leadinp
Episcopal clergymen of Omaha all
day yesterday, going over the situa
tion. Dean Tancock entertained the
clergymen at luncheon at the Ath
letic club.
"I shall have to go over the situa
tion here and in Seattle very care
fully. My work there is at an ex
tremely important stage now lie
cause I am in the midst of building
a $500,000 cathedral.
"St. Mark's is the dominating
church of Seattle and Seattle is a
great city. I shall have to gather
my faithful ones around me when
I return and tell them just how the
work here stands and we shall have
to consult prayerfully."
"The Omaha Bee had an editorial
squib at the time you were electei!.
saying that one of the inducement-;
of accepting the bishopric would he
that 'you could move from Seattle
to Omaha," said Rev. John A. Wil
liams. t
The- bishop-elect laughed.
