FLAG DAY.

ooh say can you see by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last
 gleamings"
 Yes, you can see 1t If you happen to be where 1t is, but 1t Is in so few places that there are not many who can see 1t. It ought to be in great many mogs places, and constantly, too. There Is no finer or more inspiring sight in the world than the Stars and Stripes, and the old flag should bs much more conspicuous than 1t is. To morrow will be the one hundred and seventeenth anniversary of the adoption by act of congress of the Stars and Stripes as the national emblem. Ths New York Society of Sons of the American Revolution has requested the secretaries of war and the navy to order national salute fired at noon at every military post and naval station, and the governor of the State, the mayors of all it's cities, supsrintendents of schools, owners of ship ping, presidents of exchanges and all pa triot;c organizations snd citizens to "dis- play the flag of our country upon all build in9s within their control on that day." It is to be hoped that the national authorities will comply with thir request, and that all the people of Connecticut who have flags to fly will fly them. There should be many more flags flying all the time than there are. The flag of our Union is good to look at and good to think about. It should be in the sight of all, and the children should be taught to look on it with pride and pa triotism. They may have to follow It into battle yet, but if they do not they should be we'll taught in youth what it means.

SAD AND SHAMEFUL.

There are many sad and shameful sights in the City Court, but there are few that are more sad and shameful than that of 'youpg gentlemen of the University" gathered there in deep concern over the fate of a stIumpet who has been arrested with one of their companions. This sad and shameful sight has been seen three times recently, tho last time yesterday, when young woman who es- pecislly rejoices in thu favor of freshmen was rudely torn from her admir- CTS by sentence to jail, which forbade her release by the payment of her fine and coats. On another occasion ''a young gentleman of the University" who was not over eighteen years old shamelessly paid her dues and she went out to con tinue her ravages, but yesterday her faith ful young friends couldn't do anything for her.
 We make no comment on the moral quality of these and similar proceedings by "young gentlemen of the University" !" If the faculty of the University do not feel bound to pay attention to the moral condition of "the young gentlemen we do not feel like meddling with what is probably none of our busi- ness. But we do that 1t is a sad and 8 shameful sight to See "young gentlemen of the University" not yet out of their teens openly interested in the prosperity of a strumpet who, though quite young. is about as bad as anything of the kind that has been seen in New Haven for long time.

"Faith, tfope ana Love.

Rev. J. NJ. Hopp!n, D. D., professor !n Yale university, in bringing cut second edition of his sermons on Faith, Hope ar d Love, very philosoph:cally and cheerfully admits that the prospect is hot texhilarating to him who puts forth volume of ser mons, since nobody reads sermons. i few copies sent to ones friends are sacred ly preserved with uncut leeves. They dis appear in the limbo Of dead things" But this also holds true Of any books that have nothing in them. TEe.e is no good reason why sermons should Hos have fair chance with essays, poems, histories and other forms of literature, though there are these who deny that they deserve 8 place In lit erature at sll; who claim that having done their work they are like spent shot, worth less, the feeling that produced thsm having passed away. "But," argues Prof. Hoppin, Eff music which Is feeling, can still awaken feeling, and speech, which is thought, csn still arouse thought, and motives which move the will can bs brought to bear sgs;n ard again on the mind to impsl 1t to sc', then sermons are not spsnt forces, but SakACL up ha2A NbUSEANC power for use," there is no gainssying the strength of this argument.

en the line by decreasing this curve and the apparent height is added to, and ss height suggests slenderness. two things are thus gained for the figure. each more important than girth of waist On the other hand, an effort to keep the waist small will prevent these two considera- tlons entirely. The result is tendency of women to try to keep the hip line, rather than as they did while ago to sac- ri6ce everything to preserve the waist. The woman of this illustration would not look nearly as we'll if her waist was less in girth, and this Is so apparent that it is a wonder women have not realized 1t be- fore and done away with the ungaiIly hour glass figure.

 "Foolscsp paper" has a curious origin. It is said that this designation is derived from the fact that Charles I. granted to certain parties g monopoly of the manu. fscture of paper, and every sheet bore in watermarks the royal arms. But the par. lament under Cromwell made jests of this in every conceivable manner, and ordered the royal arms to be removed and the foolscap and bells to be substituted. Oi course these were reversed after the restor ation, but the paper of the size of the par lament journals always retained the name of foolscap.

Waists Widen.

Fashions begin to favor larger waist line. It is coming to be understood that the slenderness of 8 woman's figure de- pends upon the apparent slenderness Of her hips. If woman has small wsist and slender hips, too, that is very nice,
 but if she has big hips she should make every effort to take from their apparent elenderness of curve, and one way is to al- low her waist to gain in girth. The tall woman is the one who has long line from under her arm to the floor. A curved line always appears shorter than 1t is, there. fore, when big hips make decided curve from the waist up and down, the apparent length of this line ia decreased. Straight

In Front Of Petersburg, 1864.

The lines of the confronting forces
at the crater front were about 10
yards apart, and so accurate were the
sharpshooters that hat raised on a
ramrod ever so slightly above the crest
of the parapet was sure to be soon per-
forated with balls; indeed, ceaseless
vigilance was the only guarantee against
injury at any point along these lines,
and, incredible as it may seem, it is
nevertheless true that soldiers facing to
the front, and with the earthworks be-
tween the enemy and themselves, were
frequently struck in the back by the
bullets just grazing the edge of the
parapet in passing over with downward
inclination, striking some hard sub
stance behind and glancing diagonally
forward. Hence there was not always
discredit in being wounded in the back
while serving in these trenches. Dan
ger became of such hourly occurrence
that its presence made it jocular with
the soldiers. When broadsde would
issue from federal battery, and the
heavy missiles come hurting toward
our works, the cry, "naore bread,'
would go up from the nearby soldiers,
which meant that as soon as night or a
flag of truce allowed, the fragments of
metal would be exchanged for fresh
bread with the junk dealer and baker
from Petersburg; and these loaves were
indeed relief from the monotony of
bareback and coarse corn-meal, called
"grits," and often sour.-Blue and

General LOngstreet.

There is no surviving general on
either side who occupied so prominent
position during the civil war as Gen.
eral Longstreet, now a resident of
Gainesville, Ga. General Longstreet
was born in South Carolina, January s,
1921. He was graduated at West Point
in 1912, and especially distinguished
himself in the Mexican war, during
which he rose from the position of first
lieutenant to that of major. When Sc
cession came, Longstre let sided with
the South, and was at once made major
general. From this time on it is I'M
necessary 10 recite his military career.
The history of his exploits is that of
the Army of the Potomac. In all the
great battles, from Bull Run to the
close, Longstreet was most promi-
nent and distinguished figure. There
are those who believe that as fighting
general no man on either side was
Longstreet's peer. After the war he
accepted defeat in manly way. He
was strong personal friend of General
Grant, and this, no doubt, influenced
him in his decision to join the republic
can party, movement which made
him very unpopular with the people of
the South, whose prejudices naturally
survived the war. General Grant made
Longstreet surveyor of the port of New
Orleans, and President Hayes subse-
quently sent him as minister to Turkey.
Honored and revered by all who know
him, and particularly dear to the sur
vivors of the old army, whom he so
