which Is regarded a. the national anthem
Of Yankeeland all over the world.
Just before the battle Of Long Island
General George Washington applied 70 the
continental congress for more troops. and
among those sent him was Colonel Small
woods brigade Of Maryland infantry.
They were only 200 strong, but what they
lacked in numbers they made up In cour-
age. Added to their reputation for bravery,
they wsre conspicuous by reason Of their
particularly bright uniforms, which were
copied after those Of . regiment Of the pri-
vate guard Of the king Of Italy. Red gold,
green and blue were - intcrmingled that
the other soldiers In palmer dress dubbed
them the "Macaronis. Then wag oi
the Long Island camp took the music of q
German drinking song and wrote the dog

Yankee Doodle came to town riding ON pony.
He stuck feather In his cap and called Aim
Macaroni.
The Macaroni rcferrcd TO must have
been one of Colonel Smallwood's brigade,
which later took part In the campaign
which ended In the surrender of Cornwallis
at Yorktown, Va. and fought with such
daring bravery that, when the articles ol
peace werc signed between this country
and England and they returned to theii
homes In and around Baltimore, only IL
Mncaronis remained out Of the brigade oi

When the clover's full Of blossoms, and
the blossoms full Of bees
And you hear the blackbirds whistle
in the early appletrees,
And the Jay puts on his summer suit,
and the robin does her best
To find some pretty, cosy nook where.
in to hide her nest.
When the busy farmer hustlee forth ut
early, rosy morn,
And with his crew Of barefoot boys
goes out to plant his corn
And you hear constant humming
among the orchard trees,
For the trees are full Of blossoms and
the blossoms full Of bees.
The lively season Of the year when sheep
begin to browse
When the farmers busy with his crops

Oh, 'tis the Jolly farmer is feel

When everything's in blossom and the

When the busy seasons over and the
crops are all "laid by"
And the season for the roasting ear is
drawing very nigh,
When spring chicks begin to crow and
are big enough to fry,
And new potatoes plump and nice with
huckelberry pie,
With raddishes and lettuce and poke
and turnip greens,
With applesaucea and johnny cake along
with pork and beans,
Oh, il were but farmer I'd feast and
take my ease
II had q million dollars I'd spend it

A good story is being told on the
committee on resolutions Of the re-
cent Republican congressional con-
vention for the Third district.
When, after the Democratic party
had been charged with everything
that is mean that could be conjured
up, member Of the committee sug-
gested that another resolution be
added charging the crucifxon Of
Christ upon the Democrats. The
resolution, the report says, failed
because majority Of the commit
tee did not know who Christ was.

Selections From the Speeches Of John
B. Finch.

The theory of the Prohibitionists
is that il is the duty Of the state Ia
make il just as easy to do right and
just as difficult to do wrong as poss-
ible; that it is the duty Of the state
TO make the road up TO manhood
and honor as smooth As possible. to
plant along the side Of the road the
flowers Of hope and promise and OF
public appreciation. Into the road
down to RIGHTEOUSNESS and vice and
crime and infamv and death roll the
rocks Of law. Hedge il with the
brambles Of public opinion, the
briers of public condemnation, and
then place the citizen at the begin
ming Of the two ways and say to
him. "Take your choice" Z"
The civilized people believe in
reaching down into the depths Of
debauchery and getting hold Of the
victims Of this trafiic-reaching with
tears and prayers and lifting and
holding them up-but after they
have helped them out they believe
in closing the drunkard factory 50

vent drunkenness.
While the churches and the moral
suasion organizations 90 down Il
the gutter after the sick drunkard
while they endeavor to cure his sick
body by scientific treatment and hi'
sick soul by the grace of God, II Is
the duty of the state To do away
with the places. to destroy the
trade which necessarily turns out
these sick men and keeps the sup
ply constant, and forces this work
through the years and on through
the ages.
Cowards may cry, "You are 90

home, humanity, civilization anc
