Donald Sinclair ad dressed an audience of almost 200 persons at the annual Decor ation Day Service held at the Exeter Cemetery last Sunday. Oddfellows and Legion members placed 96 flags on graves. Using as his text, "Why seek ye the living among the dead?”, Mr. Sinclair said that at a de coration service, our minds should not dwell too much on those who are dead. "Our Chris tian teaching tells us that they have risen,” he said. "We come primarily to pay respect to their memory and to dedicate ourselves in the worthy examples they have set.” He went on to say that we should take such a time to think on life and death in relation to our own lives. "The stones placed here are not to mark the spot where a person lies hurried,” he said, "but. rather as a tribute to the life he led.” Mr. Sinclair re marked on the beauty of the grounds and congratulated the board and the keeper on th'e way the cemetery had been kept.
