THE FLAGt
FLAG DAY is obsei'ved to conmiomorate the ideals of
the founders of the republic as well ns the ndoption
of the nntional emblem. These ideals were embodied in
the Declaration of Independence and in the constitution
of the United States.
In brief, the fhttf stands for personal, religious and pol
itical freedom, for a government that aims at the social
and political equality of humanity, based upon the "just
conseni of the governed."
Only a democracy can fulfill these ideals. Only by
keeping the republic true to these ideals can tho nation
fulfill its destiny and the United States escape the fate
that befel great nations of the past, the cornerstone of
whose civilization was slavery.
It is not the part of a republic to toy with imperialism,
for imperialism means the destruction of democracy. The
time ought never to come when the United States becomes
a world power in the old world feudal sense of empire,
based on the triumph of might and on the destruction of
the freedom of others by forcible acquisition of land.
The nation has not always been true to the flag, or the
constitution would always follow the flag. Wherever Old
Glory floats unaccompanied by the constitution, it should
be at most only temporarily. The machinery of the repub
lic is not adapted to governing others without their con
sent. When it is attempted it sows the dragon teeth of its
own destruction.
Admiral Fiskc, in a speech before the American Do
fense league in New York last night, bemoaned the decay
of patriotism in the nation. lie stated that "under the
influence of wealth, the allurement of pleasure and the
sophistical arguments of the pacifists the patriotism of
the nation has been rapidly weakening J or Jiltcen years,
and the outbreak of the European war found us well
started down the broad way Unit leads to destruction, fol
lowing iOgypt, Assyria, China, Greece, Rome and other
countries" to decay.
If the nation is on the broad road to destruction it is
not because of opposition to militarism, as the admiral
thinks, for Americans recognize in militarism the weapon
that occasioned the destruction of the nations enumerated.
It is because of a commercialism and an industrialism that
seeks to force the republic into imperialism and an aban
donment of the ideals of democracy.
It is true wo havo great wealth, but tho wealth is so
distributed that only a very, very few enjoy it. It is a real
source of danger only in that itis used to limit equality of
opportunity, destroy social justice and create industrial
slavery. To maintain tho traditions of the flag we must
address ourselves to conquering our internal problems
rather than conquering our neighbors.
Despite the pessimism of the admiral, there is no lack
of patriotism in the nation, no lack of enthusiasm for tho
flag, and no sacrifice the rank and file would not cheerfully
make to preserve the republic as a democracy and to keep
the flag unstained. But to prostitute the bravery of the
nation for the benefit of commercial avarice is not patriot
ism, and such a course, substituting might for right, would
rob America of the grandeur of its mission among nations
and destroy the ideals for which we revere Old Glory.
What Is the Flag of Freedom?
Flnps of the world, ivo answer:
Men nro whispering to nnd fro,
Ami whnt do thoy know of freedom,
Who other emblems know?
The wenry, toil-worn serf
Wlio from hunger faint nnd lap,
Arc lifting their voices in their
homo lnrula
To eheor for our country's flnjr.
AHist we lowor the flnir of freedom
To color nnow with blood?
Our flV tho jrrent world standard,
Upheld by llio hand of God.
)Vc dure to offer freedom,
Our flnnn the world's to slinro,
JVlmt is the flnjr of freedom?
FlngH of the world declare!
Norway's flag nnd Sweden's
Dip in tho breeze amain, ,
And the nnswer is flunjf world-wide
Shouted to bill nnd plain,
"Yon have taken our best nnd brav
est, They prosper upon your sod,
They form tho strength of your em
pire It is the will of God."

This message comes from the flaps
Thnt henr thu crescent nnd cress:
"Your colors called our sons;
They went, nnd we felt the loss.
Ali flntr of western empire,
You arose from n dream,
And we furnished the thews and sin
ews That mako you Iho flag supreme."'
The dragon sends nnswer
Tlint falls on the walling nir:
"You gave us more thnn freedom,
You called us from our lair;
You gttvo us hope for the future,
You shattered our chains to the
past,
And in the forward march of tho nn
tious, The dragon shall not bo last."
Japan's haughty linnnnr sends
Tills inoflhitgo cant and west :
"Hail, flags of the world 1
My islands nre fairest and best. .
The nnns of my loyal sons
Arc reaching far nnd wide,
Yot the small brown men of destiny
Must bow to the New World's
pride."
tuftsin's nnoient stnndnrd
Sends- this greeting neross the sen :
"Your flag floats in the offing
And my children bend the luiee.
)t luros them westward, though
i hold them under n ban,
And benoath your flag of freedom
My slnve becomes a mnnl"
The in-color of France bends Jow
With a roynl sway:
"We honored that flag of yore,
Wc honor it iriorc todny.
Jn its enuse our nation
Struck ninny n blow with pride,
And it floats o'er the sons of Franco
Who under it fought and died."
The Gorman ling's proud answer
Booms o'er tho oeenn feam:
"My sons left thoir fatherland
To build nncw their home.
They cherish your flag
And the nation for which it stnnds,
And thn swords that defend its
honor
Arc held in Gcrmnn hsuds."
i
From Englnnd's grand old flag
Tho winds this message benr:
"Ked, white nnd blue, by your colors
My bravo yeomen swear.
Knob banner stands tribute
To thu cnuso that gave it birth
Freedom's flng nnd England's?
Thev nre the roynl twins or the
' earth."
Old Glory waves nn nnswer,
Floating nobly on the breeze:
"I send hoKi to the souls of men
Chained on land nnd sens.
From nil linvo I taken toll
Your best each of you gave,
And they've learned tho power of self
Where only sin is slnve.

Sometimes a aoro spot becomes Indo

Nature acts with marvelous rapidity

H. 8. S. so stimulates celralar activity
that the part surrounding on ulcer so
