The mere mention of the name of Gettysburg brings a thrill to every member of the older generation who recalls how the whole North awaited with anxiety and abated breath the outcome of this, one of the most critical battles of the Civil War. The churches were filled with praying people and the newspaper bulletins eagerly scanned, for there wbb scarcely anyone but had some relative or friend on the scene of the great conflict. To visit this famous battlefield has been the ambition of many people who have been compelled for various reasons to defer It'until the present time. Now a splendid opportunity is ofTered to go over the historic field. From July 1st to 4th, the 40th anniversary of the battle of Gettysburg will be celebrated and there will be most impressive exercises in which representatives of both the North and South will take part. To visit Gettysburg at this time will be highly inspiring as well as educational, and in no other way* can the rising generation get such a clear idea of the great sacrifices that were made to preserve the grand old Union.
