OPTIMISM IN MINNESOTA (Continued from Page One) NOW APPARENT. SHOWN THE PIONEER WANT AD BRING RESULTS Subseribe for The Daily Piopeer. ‘|for a caretaker S5 MEN-TO ASSIST . (Continued from Page One) *|for- sports and agtractions, one for the ‘school exhibits, one for art ex hibits and one ‘for ‘publicity. Members were called upon for ideas and suggestions which déveloped into amost-interesting and profitable’ dis- cussion. It was brought out that the county'might provide funds with which to erect new buildings, and this matter will be .referred to proper committees. Good horse races at the fair was a ion, which met with popular approvi -A -earnival or vaudeville was another suggestion. Larger ex- hibits of machihery and greater. rev- enues from: - concessions were also favorably"argued. ~ In case new buildings are con- structed on the fair grounds, A. P. Ritchie *suggested that one be built to look after all the buildings. stated that most of the windows had been broken in the: exhibit buildijpg - and that ° unless proper precaution was taken the con- stant repair..cost -would be greater than the cost of ‘providing quarters for a caretaker, who might be se- cured for free rental. J. P. Lahr urged that we take the exhibit which is shown annually at the state fair and county fair after it has served its purpose, and place. it on display in the association rooms for the remainder of the year, so that visitors might be priyileged to see what is grown in this county. Secretary C. F. Schroeder read his annual report, which showed that the association ‘made good progress the past year, having cleared all ex- . Londoners fiad a special and most ‘mpresslve ceremony, when as the #“maroons” boomed forth the hour, King George unveiled the permanent memorial to “The Glorious Dead,” iknown as the Cenotaph, on White- hall. The monument is the marble ireplica. of the temporary Cenotaph erected for the great Victory parade last year, and ‘which was saluted by +the trcops of the Allied nations. Or- iiginally it was intended to erect a ‘much larger memorial in one of the parks or big open spaces, but the plaster cast of Sir Edward Lutyens’ severcly . plain yet wierdly and 1 solemnly beautiful design caught the public imagingtion and the spot where it was originally erected, al- most opposite the Whitehall end of “Downing streef, became a national :shrine hallowed by the tears of count- 1less pilgrims. »~'Unimaginative ofticlals wished to I remove the structure immediately after the victory parade but there ‘was such a public outery that it was allowed to remain until the plaster| ‘began to crumple, and the erection | < of a more substantial memorial be- came imperatiye. Again officialdom wished to erect the marble replica elsewhere, but,the British nation ex- pressed its wishes so definitely that the ‘officials gave way and the per- .manent Cenotaph today rests on the original spot {n Whitehall. . King George, with Queen Mary, the Prince of Wales, Duke of York, and Princess Mary drove from Bucking- ham Palace attended by a brilliant ‘staft-and a sovereign’s escort of Life Guards resplendant in pre-war scar- : 1et, gold and steel.” Drawn up around the velled Cenotaph were detach- ments representing every branch of the army, navy, air force and ser- ¢ vice. Aliled diplomats and foreign naval and military attaches were also ‘ present, as ‘were Premier Lloyd George and“the cabinet. A funeral _party of the Guards in pre-war crim- -86n and gold, stood at each corner of the memorjal with heads bowded over thelr reversed rifles and guards gt honor of the King’s Company, Asrenadier Guards and the Royal Navy with standards and bands, stood ready to render honors. .The formerly dreaded air-raid warnings boomed out the hour. King Qeorge, standing a little in front of ; the' royal group immediately pulled the sllken’ cord releasing the drapery and stood at the salute. The guards “of‘honor presented arms and the hugé concourse remained absolutely sta- tionary for the prescribed two min- utes. The silence was only broken when trumpets of the Guards Sounded the “Last Post and “All Clear.” Before leaving the Cenotaph King George placed a large wreath at the foot of the plinth, an example which was imitated by Lloyd George, and other Prominent British and Allied repre- sentatives. The inscription, *“The Glorious Dead,” caught the popular imagination more than anything else. During the afternoon floral tributes ofevery description, from expensive hot-house products -to ~humble ‘bunches of wild flowers were piled round the plinth.
