"i " r -.....,., m v-nnsuair deeds, an incentive to heroic sacrifice, a mo tive of supreme devotion :n the serv ice of God, of country, and of our fel low men. Wherever thaf banner hangs it re calls the story of that love of Christ greater than which no man hath whereby He laid down His life for us Hence that readiness for sacrifice which is bred in every truly Christian heart; sacrifice for the church, sacri fice for the Christian upbringing of children, sacrifice for institutions of charity and zeal, sacrifice for home for country and for God. History bears on every page the testimony to this spirit. Without it no one can be a true Christian. It implies the renum-iaation of the world's flattery and favors, for we cannot doubt the Divine asurance that if the world ha ted the Master and persecuted Him, it will deal no better with His faith ful servants. Nor should we wish to be more tenderly treated indot v, love of the world for us would be the surest sign that we ourselves have proved renegade to that service flag of Christ. Yet in the school of war the world has been taught one lesson. If it once tore down the churches, if it vainly tempted the Christian martyr to trample upon it in token of apos tasy, if it denounced as idolatrous the very reverance shown to that service flag of Christ, it has now been made to confess in its own practice, the beauty and tmth of our devotion. What humn emblem can be more sa cred in the eyes, of all the world than that modest service flag we see hung from the window of some humble home? It tells of the brave youths who have gone forth in their prime of life to offer for their country all that earth holds dear. It speaks of the young wife's anxious fears, and tender hopes and loving tears; of the mother's heart that bleeds and the mother's hair that daily grows more silvery underneath the silent burden of grief, even though the sorrow be borne heroically. Who indeed might hope to put into words all the voice less eloquence of that tiny emblem, that mere span of cloth which every breeze can lift and every gust of wind can toss about but which is sacred to us all with a world of tender thoughts and fond affections woven in with every fibre of its texture? Yet what is the greatest glory that is cast about it but a reflection from the Cross of Calvary, and what are the highest hopes that can rest upon it but the light of the Resurrection i' -Ittvrvinyniciii lEf the hospital the horticulturist :'s mak-i, ing trial of dust sprays on a commer cial scale. MEMORIAL DAY OBSERVED. Dr. J. R. N. Bell came down from Corvaliis Wednesday and visited with friends in town Thursdav. He deliv ered the Decoration Day address at Monmouth in the new Normal Chapel to over a thousand people, when the following program was rendered: The School Orchestra rendered a meclly of patriotic airs under the able direction of Miss Mary Hoham, after which the National Anthem was sung by the audience. Scripture Reading and prayer by members of the G. A. R. Music by School Orchestra; song, The New "Hail Columbia" by the Normal Students; The President's proclamation, read by Miss Rosa B. Parrott. President Ackerman then introduced the speaker of the day Dr. o. H. N. Bell, who held the large au dience spellbound ."or two hours in one of the most masterly and power ful patriotic addresses ever delivered "rom jhe rostrum of the Oregon Nor- mal School. He did not forget to pay tribute to the old veterans of other wars nor did he forget to pay tribute to our noble boys who are over there now in the trenches fighting for our liberty. "That is the supreme test, he said "going over there to be shot at." He closed his remarks by re questing the audience to give three rousing cheers for Old Glory which they did, making the very rafters ring. A group of High School Students then sang a very pretty selection, af ter which "America" was sung and all marched out on the campus where the band discoursed sweet music, making a fitting ending for the successful day just passed: NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT. Notice is hereby given that E. K Piasecki, administrator of the estate of J. A. Simons, deceased, has filed his final account as such administra tor in the County Court of the State of Oregon, for Polk county, and that said Court has appointed Saturday, the 29th day of June, 1918, at the hour of ten o'clock in the forenoon of said day, at the court room of said Coun ty Court, in Dallas, Oregon, as the time and place for the hearing of all objections of the said final account and the settlement thereof.
