The Ada Memorial Day services on Monday will be held at a new time this year, 1 p.m. instead of the usual 2 p.m.

The program will be held at the veterans memorial on the east side of Woodlawn Cemetery, with the service at Preston Cemetery east of Alger immediately following. The services will be held at the VFW Post 9381, at 2147 SR 81, if the weather is inclement.

Jay Conley will be the speaker this year. The program will begin with a 21-gun salute. Members of the Ladies Auxiliary will place wreaths in memory of those who have served in America's past wars.

Payton Dyer, the representative to Boys State, will recite the "Gettysburg Address" and "In Flanders Field."
