I am whatever you make me ; nothing more. I am your belief in yourselves, your dream of what a people may become. I live a changing life, a life of moods and passions, of heart breaks and tired muscles Sometimes I am strong with pride, when men do an honest work, fitting the rails together truly. 1 Sometimes I droop, for then purpose has gone from me, and cynically I play the coward. Sometimes I am loud, garish, and full of that ego that blasts judgment, but always I am all that you hope to be and have the courage to try for. I am song and fear, struggle and panic and ennobling hope. I am the day's work of the weakest man and the largest dream of the most daring. I am the constitution and the courts, statutes and the statute makers, soldier and dreadnaught, drayman and street sweep, cook, counsellor and clerk. I am the battle of yesterday and the mistake of tomorrow. I am the mvsterv of the men who do without knowing why. I am the clutch of an jdea and the reasoned purpose of reso lution. I am nd more than what you believe me to be and I am all that you believe I can be. I am what you make me ; nothing more. I swing before your eyes as a bright gleam of color, a sym bol of yourself, the pictured suggestion of that big thing which makes this nation. My stars and my stripes are your dream and your labors. Thev are bright with cheer, brilliant with courage, firm with faith, because you have made them so out of your heart;' you are the makers of the flag, and it is well that you glory in the making.

SOLDIERS TAKE JOBS IMi ME would think that the war had taught us to value a thor f I nnarhlv iin-tn-Hate naw and an efficient air service if nothing els6 in the way of military preparedness. Yet some people consider it the height of wisdom to slash theaval appropriation bill regardless of the fact we are not in the League of Nations or any other world combination for preserv ing peace. These people view with disfavor the strengthening of the navy although we are admittedly outclassed at present by Great Britain and regardless of the fact Japan has an am bitious navy building program under way. They are unmoved by the fact our administration is pledged to change the Panama canal tolls act in seeming disregard of a treaty with England. They are unmindful of the fact tiie status of the Anglo-Japanese alliance is not yet determined. They fail to consider that part of Europe is under a bolsheviki regime that makes open war on democracy and that the rest of the big European states never know from day to day what dangrers they may face on the morrow. Our pacificts ignore the fact that the world has been shown to be small and that when a big fire rages the flames may easily reach our shores. These people are making a mistake. If they had their way they could lead us into blunders that might prove disastrous. We want peace and disarmament and we should be actively leading a world move to make peace and disarmament effective and sure. But until we do that and bring about security it would be insane for America to neglect its sea strength. Until we get a fire department we can count upon it would be folly to tear the fire extinguisher from the wall and the hose bib from the kitchen sink.

(O. P.) Italian soldiers who were mure or less mutl lnted during the war lutely have taken the law into their own hands and have sw.'irmecf in thousands into many of he government ministries, taking pos session by force of ther places of the many young women who gained a foot ing there during the wur, and bo far have refused to bo displaced. Newspapers are being flooded with letters, some few of thrm arguing that he women clerks have earned the right to work if they please, and to ipport themselves, but most of the riters telling lurid and terrible talcs of the frivolity of these daughters of Eve; of the little work they do and the great amount of time they waste on flirtations and on their toilettes: of the alleged subversive effect they have in well-resulated ministries, and of many families whose peace is said to have been undermined by their dangerous proxmity to staid and re spectable men. At any rate It appears that soldiers who have served their country have made good their claim to the coveted positions and, both in Rome and In many provincial towns the edict has gone forth that the girls must go. Italian housekeepers hope that some will return to the many mistresses who sigh in vain for assistance in their households, but doubt whether after the short hours and Independence of office life they will take kindly to do. mestlc service or the long hours of shop work. . MEMBER OF HOUSE OF COMMONS WHO KNIT SOCKS PASSES AWAY LONDON", May 19. (A. P.) The death of J. Oithcart Wason, member of parliament for the Orkney and Shetland Islands, re- moves one of the most original characters in the house. Jlr. Wason was "8 years old and stood six feet six inches In height. He developed the curious ha- bit, some years ago of knitting socks during slack lime In the' commons, not actually in the house but in the tea room or one of the whips' rooms, while unin- teresting debates were going on in the chamber. He said his original purpose in learning to knit was-to corn- mend himself to the women- folk of Orkney and Shetland during his electoral enmnaftma. but he found afterwards that it was a sootliinir occunntinn for dull hours. VICTIM OF ILUCT LOVE W lvTIIKuFI KLD, Conn.. May 19. (U P.) The hanging of IClwood 11. Wade, scheduled fur tonight, will be the third death to result from a man's wild infatuation for another's wife. When the youthful milk wagon driv er became unduly alternative to the fair Mrs. Ethel Hutchins Nott in the summer of 19!0. there was no shadow of the Impending tragedy. Both prin cipals apparently lived happily with their respective families In their homes In Bridgeport. Mrs. Nott is 3d; Wade is 23. The latter has two children, Oertrude 5, niul-lClbert 3, - and Mrs. Nott had two children, tieorgc 5, and Mildred 3. The first death was that of George B. Nott, gambler by profession, who was attacked while sleeping In the at tic of his homo and later killed in the struggle. A heavy piece of pipe, a carving knife and a revolver were used. The persons who committed this murder were, according to testl mony at the trial, Klwood B. Wade and John il Johnston, who was em ployed by Wade on the lutter's milk route. New ,FkeiMsf ' PoBte'di Voiles The second death was that of John ston's aged mother, who died Febru ary 28 of a broken heart. And the end is not yet. When Mrs, Nott stands trial she will be faced by Homer S. Cumings, state's attorney and former chairman of the democrat ic national committee, and the main instrument in sending Wudo to the death house. Johnston, it was believed, may es cape with a light sentence for his part in assisting the prosecution in Wade s trial. This 20-year-old youth was the first to break down and tell the police of the murder. The murder of Nott was carefully planned, and deliberately end method ically consummated. None of the principals with the exception of John ston, appeared' unduly excited when committing the deed, testimony at Wade's trial revealed. A player piano, with a roll of jazz music on it, was played to drovn the sounds of the struggle. On Sunday morning, August 29, George Nott came home after being out all night, slapped his wife's face. went up to the attic and to bed. Mrs. Nott called Wade on the telephone. Summoning his hired man, John ston, and getting a heavy piece of pipe, the two men drove to the Wade home. Mrs. Nott admitted them, and the pair crept up the stairs to the attic after shedding their shoes and stockings. Raising his heavy pipe Wade struck -Vott five times over the head. Nott awoke, screaming and grappled with his assailant. Wade then fired twice. Airs. Nott emerged from nij Inner room and handed Wade a . huge carving knife, it was testified at tho trial. Physicians said they found 1" knifo wounds in tho slain man's body.
