judgment seat and admouished by the
Cody old man in skirts as follows
Captain, thou hast sinned against me
and my house; thou has voted with
them that have despitefnlly used him
that made me governor; thou wouldst
not heed his commands at the great
convention in the city Of few waters.
This day shall thy name be Dennis

DURING the last few years there
has been a great deal of agitation over
the flag laws" which have been past
in several States compelling the school
boards and trustees of various educa-
tional institutions to keep the Ameri-
can flag flying from every school house
over which they have charge during
school hours. A grand jury has now
indicted the trustees Of the University
Of Illinois for not keeping the flag fly-
ing from every building instead OF one
large flag which was prominently dis
played upon the college campus. This
business, as in fact the whole law, is
the veriest faddishness. While the
sentiment as it. at first appears, is
pretty, the attempt to force patriotism
by compulsory legislation is as sense
less and futile as for father to at.
tempt to compel child 20 love him,
