The Raymond Cleaves Post oI Mattttuck. the Orlswold-Terry-Olov- k er Post of Southold and their AuxU- ' larles were also In the line of march. Other organlatlons Including the Boy Scouts, the Olrl Scouts, the Brownies, Sons of the American Legion, Spanish American War Veterans, Gold Star ft Mothers, I5aughters of the American Revolution and many others partici- pated in the parade. Martial music was furnished by the Mattituck, South- old and Oreenport High School Bands and toy the Southold Fire Department f Band. In the exercises which followed at the World War Monument, William Rose, last of the Civil War Veterans from the East End, placed a wreath at the foot of the monument. Mr. f Rose also took i » r t in the parade. In- vocation was given by the Rev. C. E. Butterer which was followed by the RoU Call by Henry S. Welden, adjut- ant of the Burton Potter Post. Music was furnished by the Mattituck High # School Glee Club and toy the combined bands of the three schools. The pro- gram was in charge of M. D. Lowen- thal. Commander of the Greenport Post. ^ Judge L. Barron Hill was the speak- # er of the day and delivered an inspir- ing and timely address. His speech was as follows: We have assembled once more for the purpose of doing honour to those A brave men who gave their lives on the field of battlr that we all might be free and that we might enjoy that freedom. For many years before the war that has been commonly called the World War, ' ^ e m o n a i Day was to many just another hoUday wlien sol- diers mar(^d to martial music ac- companied by young people carrying flags all in a gay holiday spirit. After the World War was over, and those who had been engaged in its prosecu- tion were again peacefully occupied, # we all were little by little forgetting the dark days; we were falling to re- call clearly the physical suffering on the battle field and the mental suffer- ing of those at home. Most of us can recall the thrill of watching men in A the blue uniform of the Union Army marching to the shrill strains of the martial music of the flfe and drum corps — we can all recall the more recent memorial days of witnessing soldiers marching in the uniform of A the expeditionary force and today the uniform of the American Legion, all paying respect to the memory of their comrades. Even these failed to sharp- en our memories. If our pursuits of peace have in- 9 creased our vision and blinded our memory, the wars now in progress in Europe and in the Orient have sharp- ened our memory and brought us to a realization that vigilance is neces- fc gary in a world a large portion of * which is ruled by madmen. Our forefathers fought in a Rev- olutionary War that we might be free to work out our own destiny. Others fought to preserve that union which • had been formed, and still others fought for an ideal which was — as we all thought — to make the whole world safe for democratic principles. The past history of our country is glorious. We are all proud of it and ^ proud of the men and women who * made it possible, both individually and collectively. Their success has never before even been approached — it is in fact a dream come true. If Memorial Day means anything to ^^ us — if It Is anything more than a holiday for parades — we all must pause for reflection and not only praise our Illustrious dead but prove that we are worthy of our inheritance thereby being prepared to pass on to future |k generations a country just as glorious as we found it. Within the last few months we are reminded that countries, some large and some small, whose citizens were peace loving, have been raped, laid ^ waste, conquered and subjected by the doge of war. Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Denmark, Norway, Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, have been sub- jected to Hitler's wUl. Women and children have suffered more horribly than the human mind can imagine, liittle Finland has been overrun by the hoards of Stalin, Btheopia and Albania (Continued on Page 4) Plans arc now being worked out for the opening of the 1940 season by the Southold Yacht Club on Saturday, June 15th. The raising of the Club Burgee, sailing races and an informal get-together of the members in the evening wUl be the program for the day. Pull details of the opening fes- tivities will be announced next week. The Board of Governors at a meet- ing held last Saturday night at the Southold Fire House appropriated $160. to be used for repairs and improve- ments on the exterior and interior of the Wharf House at Founders Land- ing which will be used for club activ- ities this year. The appropriation Is made In return for the permission to occupy the building granted by the Southold Park District. The work will start immediately. Commodore Robinson and his com- mittee are working out the details for the regatta which will be held dur- ing the week of the Tercentenary Cel- ebration. It is expected that it will be the largest regatta ever held in this part of the Island. A program of events for the balance of the 1940 season will be completed In the very near future. Michael J. Walsh Head s L i s t of Prominent Speakers Supreme Court Upholds School Salute To Flag Editor's Note: The following story was taken from the June 4th issue of the New York Herald Tribune and is of special Interest to the residents of Suffolk County due to a similar case tried before County Judge L. Barron Hill and the handing down of the same decision by the County Judge: WASHINGTON, June 3 (UP). — School children must salute the Amer- ican flag if state laiws so require, the Supreme ouiuri i-uisd today, Oecame the flag symbcdiaes a national unity which transcends all internal differ- ences — religious or otherwise. In an 8-to-l decision, the court im- plied that the flag salute was a means of evoking \that unifying sentiment without which there can ultimately be no liberties, civil or religious.\ Associate Justice Harlan F. Stone dissented. The court upheld the action of a Pennsylvania school board which ex- pelled two children from their classes for refusing, on religious grounds, to salute the flag. The children, Lillian and WUllam Gobltis, of Minersville, are members of Jehovah's Witnesses, a religious sect which believes that sal- uting the flag violates the Second Commandment — a prohibition against the worship of images. School privil- eges were denied to them after they refused to comply with a regulation requiring pupils to recite, with hand outstretched to the flag, the oath of allegiance: \I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands; one nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.\ X-, Uniisual Picnic L Planne d At Marratooka Club Mrs. Vincent Browne Is C h a i r m a n Of Specia l G r o u p Southold High School Junior Prom Friday Night On Friday, June 7, the Junior Class of SouUiold High School will hold its annual Prom.

When Southold Township celebrates its 300th Anniversary the week of July 4th, numerous members of the Town's Old Families will gather for a Special Picnic, at ISie Marratooka Club, at 4 o'clock on July 4th. Many of these visitors will be descendants of the families of the original settlers of Southold Township In 1640. It had been hoped that visitors from the par- ent town, Souttiwold, England, would join with these members of Southold's Old Families, when invitations w6re sent across the sea several months ago. However, now as twenty five years ago in 1915 when the 275th AnniVltflbry of the Founding of Southold Town was celebrated, residents and dignitaries of Southwold have refused their invita- tions because of War. Captain Oliver W. Case of Cutchogue, Chairman of the CTommittee on Old Families expects a large number of the descendants of these families to attend the various events of Tercen- tenary Week as well as the reunion Picnic. Many have answered his let- ters and expressed great interest in the unusual event of a 300^ Town- ship Birthday as well as the wish to meet with scattered members of the various Old Families. The Picnic will be an unusually hospitable one be- cause of the fact that SO of the com- mittee members have been asked to bring two picnic hampers aoiece filled with food for two out-of-t(^ guests. AU local members of Old FamUles wiU attend the Picnic supiMied with Biq>- per for their own fanlilieBy'Mnd thCM 100 extra hampers ai« to take care of the hundred extra guests from other regions who are memtoers of Old Fam- ilies of Southold Town. The Southold High School Band wiU furnish music and there will be community singing. All guests visiting Southold Town- ship during Tercentenary week will receive Registration Cards at the gen- eral information booths in each vil- lage in order that a record may be made of the visitors. Members of the Old FamUles will register the fact that they sure such, and a special list of Old Family visitors will ibe made pub- lic later, under each family line.

Each booth wUl be open all of Ter- centenary Week staffed by the Ladies of Oie Legion Auxiliaries and others, so that every visitor will be able to receive information at any hour of any day.* This wiU save visitors a great deal of time, and make their stay In Southold much more enjoyatole.

The communities that occupy the Northeastern tip of Long Island were represented at the Spring Muslcale in the Mattituck High School toy many genuine music lovers, who had come the second time to hear Judith Hell- wig, Soprano; Ruth Klsch-Amdt, Con- tralto; Werner G«bauer, violinist and Kurt Adler, Pianist. Orient, East Mar- lon, Greenport, Southold, Cutehogue, Mattituck and Rlverhead have for many years held discriminating and appreciative listeners. So the audience of the Winter Concert requested the return of the artists who had so en- riched the community in great music, because it felt not only the urge to hear again the unfolding of a majestic pro- gram, but because it felt it wished to know these artists better. It is only these incredible times that have brought these artists out here to us, for not so long ago this country-side had to go to New York to hear oper- atic performances. To the writer, the musicians of the Winter and Spring Muslcales for refugee musicians, bring the poignant thrill of European Opera Houses we shall probably never see — Zurich, Switzerland, the curtain going up before an audience of cosmopolites, royalty perhaps, Vienna, Prague, Kieff, all richly memorable, all fiercely difB- cult in which to make any impression unless bona fide. Reading in the order of the pro- gram of Mfey 27th, we find Werner Bebauer, violinist. His youth is no handicap to his facile and fluent tech- nique, nor to his depth of conception, which In the St. Matthew Passion Aria, with Madame Kisch-Ardnt, reached sublimity. We know of no contralto whose pianissimo is lovelier, nor does she ever lose sight of the spiritual val- ues. It might be of interest to state that Carnegie Ifoll, a few weeks ago, heI4, a w ^ d i d audience to hear her. Kuct.. Adler, former conductor of European Opera Houses, was the ac- con^nnist. How-can.we say we are not conscious of the difficult accom- paniments until they are over? Be- cause he presents such unity, accur- acy without over stressing, and intui- tive Interpretation varied to reflect the musical picture each composer makes. Wills and Estates The estate of Henry G. Fltz of Pe- conic, member of an old and promi- nent Southold Town family, has been appraised for transfer tax purposes at $7,715.25 gross and $7,590.25 net. The net estate, which is exempt from tax, passes entirely to Mary R. Fltz, widow. Hettle B. Howell of Peconic left property of a gross appraised value of $7,907.71. The net estate of $6,534,12, which is tax exempt, goes to Alberta H. Mldgley, daughter, Peconic. Application has been made for let- ters of administration in the estates of the following: Charles E. Thorp, late of New Suf- folk (died May 22); estate, not over $2,500 in personal and about $4,000 in real property; Wiliam T, Thorp, broth- er, Manhasset, petitioner and sole heir. A final accounting was filed this week by Henry L. Fleet, administrator of the estate of the late Henry P. Tut- hill, long one of Mattltuck's leading men and former County Treasurer. The administrator reports receiving a total of $77,205.41 and that he had an undistributed balance of $3,963.06. The decree directs him to retain $1,- 645,06 as conunissions and costs and to pay the remainder to Henrietta A. TuthUl, the widow. CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our sincere ap- preciation to our friends and neigh bore for their many acts of kindness to us during our recent bereavement.
