MALOXEY Xcws Kdltor il I1BIAL HOW TO 1'LY ON) OLORY Tho approach of Memorial Day and Fourth of July makes tho following suggestion timely: Somo of tho people wno ny v tho ting from their residences or nlnccs of business do not scorn tn know, according to an old soldier, t! c rospoct Hint is due to Old Olory. Tho rule In the army niul navy Is that tho Stars and Stripes nro never i flown nftcr sunset, nor boforo sunrise, and civilians nro sup- posed to observo this, though thoro Is no law to make- them do so. As a matter of fact, somo tings aro kept up nil night. Be Generally Observed As Holiday On Coos Bay Program Given. A SUCCESSFUL STEAMSHIP CO. THERE is ono steamship com pany owned In tills country that is a remarkably successful con corn, but that Is because Its roal busi ness Is raising bananas. Tho Unitod Fruit company of Boston has a floot of somo 50 steamers, all bought abroad becauso thoy can bo built or nt loast purchased cheaper In Rolfast and Glasgow than in Philadelphia or Nowport News. Thoy aro nomin ally ownod by a Scotch company, tho snares of which aro owned by tho Amorican company. Tho ships aro oqulppod to carry pasongors, but tliolr main yoarly cargo is $30,000, 000 bunches of bananas or about throo bananas n month for ovoryl In habitant of the United States, making u fair allowanco for wasto. Thoy mako a prollt of about 11 conts on a bunch and It can bo called nn agri cultural profit or a profit on oconn carrlago ,as ono chooses to look at It. nut It looks quite clear that whon tbey can mako 10 por cont on run ning a stonmshlp lino Americans will roadlly ongago In tho business. Fur thormoro thoy will lot pooplo carry tliolr ocoan freight for thorn whon tho business Is dono at a profit of loss than C por cont and thoy savo mon oy by doing so. Our national prldo might bo gratllled iy Having our ships In ovcry port, but wo havo a great many things to gratify our national prldo as It Is, and It Is hard ly worth whllo to ompty tho national pocket book for another ono. Wo Hhnll havo tho Panama canal to brag nbout, which Is a bigger thing than a thousand ships and will cost nbout as much and last a good doal longer. Ol.l) OLORY OX MEMORIAL DAY Of all tho many questions that aro constantly bolng nsked tho war department at Washlug- ton to answer, tho ono most fro- qiiently put boforo It Is as to tho correct position of flying Old Olory on Memorial day at army posts and stations. To thoso who havo no relation to tho military sorvlco It Is al- most tho unlvorsnl belief that tho flag should bo displayed at half staff all of May .10, but this Is not so, for paragraph 411 of tho army regulations prescribes as follows: "444. On Memorial day, May 30, at all army posts and stn- tlons tho nntlonnl flag will bo displayed at half staff from sun- rlso till midday, and immediate- ly boforo noon tho band, or field music, will play somo approprl- ato air, and tho national saluto of twontyono guns will bo fired at 12 in. at all posts and stations provided with nrtlllory. At tho conclusion of this memorial trlbuto at noon tho flag will bo hoisted to tho top of tho staff and will remain thoro until sun- sot. Whon holBted to tho top of tho staff tho flag will bo saluted " by playing ono or moro appro- prlato patriotic airs. In this way fitting testimonial of re- spect for tho horolc dead and honor to tliolr patriotic dovotton will bo appropriately rendered. TIMES CIIAXOE In d:iy of old, so I've been told, tho knight who won nuecoss wns wont to soolc week nftor week, for dnmsels In distress; ho giants faced and ogre chased and fought with sword and lanco, and folt repaid when rescued maid gava him a grateful glance. In tlioso old dnys tho woodland way with damsels crowded wore, who needed aid, and so his blade sont clouds of flying fur. Thoso dnys am gone, so help me John, and knights nro on tho blink; and lid pious maid cries out for nld mid succor, I don't think, If modern knight in nrmor bright went forth to succor dames, he'd find a squad of girls abroad a playing luwloss gamos; he'd seo it mob, with vim nthrob, of wllil-oyod Cruzy Janes, a-throwlng bricks, dead cnts and sticks through merchants' window pai.vs. Tho rattled knight In (tiro affright would rhnse himself and say "Tho rescue Hchoino Is but n dro.im as girls aro built today; I'd Hook tho lairs of grizzly boars and rusciio them, by Jlugs. ere I would wnlk around n block to help thoso Kcroochlng things!"

THE MOTOR BOAT. 1 look my motor bnnt last fall And wrapped It up with care, Each part of It, both large and small. Wns polished up for fair. I paid an expert ulnoty bones To clean and fix tho thing, And then I said, in Joyous tones, "She'll run right off next spring." Ro wlen I got her out this year, My boat wns staunch and sounrt. Havo thnt sho leaked and wouldn't steer And alwnys ran aground; Tho cyllndor wns clogged somehow, Tho motor lay down flat. Hut sho's In perfect ordtM" now, Aside, I mean, from that. The Itattorles aren't such n much, Sho needs another scrow, Sho lias nn Inefficient clutch, The pump Is ailing, too. Wli.it say tho blithe- repairing men And such like clever ducks? They say, "We'll mako her run again For Just two hundred bucks." H. 11. Preparations for tho observance of t Momorlnl Day havo boon porfoctod and It Is likely that tho exorcises will bo participated In by a larger num ber than ovor boforo.
