Patriotic Addresses and Impressive Music Mark Unveilingf of Beautiful Bronze Memorial to Former S^rice Men—284 Names on the List —It Will Be Erected on Village Green
Rockvlll* Centre, March 28.—"Dedl- the scars ot battle. The thoughts of the
«ate4l in honor of thoM from this vil¬ lage who answered the call of the coun- Iry In the World War, 1S17-H19."
These words met the gaze of three kundred or more people who viewed tbe beautiful bronze tablet which will ^ erected in the village green, at tbe intersection of Untwln avenue and the llCerrlck road, when former Village President Morley K. Dunn, slowly drew the American Flag from before tt, at the conclusion of a thrilling, patriotic dedication service in Masonic auditor¬ ium last nght.
Beneath this salutation was the Barnes of 284 men and women who had gone out of this village to serve their (country. Before some of the names was a star, and this fact seemed to mak* Itself felt throughout the assemblage. There was no loud aliouting, though ap¬ plause mr.i^ed appreciation of the pa¬ triotic speeches and good singing. There •eemed to be a realization that gaiety was out ot plac« and although the cere- Kony was.In no way what could bo •Ailed solemn, there was no doubt that many felt 'restrained to respect the slg- alflcance of the tablet.
The tablet Is a memorial. Memory Mtrrled '^bacK itmnf in t)iat crowd to iftys gone by,' when the "boys" 'and "girls" cbeMtuUy gave themaelvea to tha aenric* oC tbair oountry. Put aome iMve not returned. Some that did, bear
horrors of war i>ermeated th^ mlndn. There could be no outburst thAugh pa¬ triotism stirred in the breasts as ac¬ complishments of the American soldier from^ the Revolutionary War to the recent war were related with much satlflkctlon.
* Everyone WOlfaig to Help
The great auditorium of the former Rockville Centre Clubhouse, donated by Massapequa Lodge for the occasion was decorated with American flags, obtained from Are companies and residents of the village. They were placed In posi¬ tion by James Patten and several cheer¬ ful volunteers. The spirit that the dedi¬ cation was for "our boys" was reflected tn the willingness to help make prepara¬ tions for the event.
Wilfred Glen, who delayed a profes¬ sional engagement, that he might be of service, sang several solos that were truly appreciated. The Cpmmunlty Chorus provided a double quartet and Mrs. Charles O. Wlnshlp played the piano. Some ot the orcbeiftra of tbe high school was present. A detail of firemen,"under command of the Are chief and his assistants, were present to lend assistance.
