were appointed as follows: Program,
committee; Traffic committee to dir
ect the orderly parking of cars; Music
committee to arrange for a united
choir and necessary special numbers;
Committee to arrange for procuring a
musical instrument to lead the sing
ing.
The aim of those responsible for
the arrangements will be to make the
service one of quiet devotion and
worship, a memorial service in the ful
lest sense of the word. No formal de-
coratic of graves will be observed.
Any decoration that is done will be
voluntary in its nature and may be
done before or after the service. This
effort is somewhat of an experiment;
if it is successful this year it is likely
to become an annual event.
