All flags used in the United States
navy are made by women at the Brook
Ign navy yard. In the great sewing
room from twenty to thirty women are
assembled daily to work on the flags.
Not only are our own "Old Glory''
made by them, but also the flags OF
every nation in whose waters our YES
sells sail. Some of the women grow old
in the service, for the workers in the
department are preferred for their
skill as needle workers and not on &C
count of partisan influence. The work
lasts all the year round, and as there
is no f1uctuation in the wages OF the
willing workers, Uncle Sans flag
makers never talk strike.

Evangelist Moody says: Newspaper
work is one of the most ennObling ano
educating of professions. In my
opinion every theological student in
the land ought to WORK on q newspaper
for a. least q year, in order to study
human nature and gain the human
knowledge that is impossible to receive
in the academy, at college aud in the
seminary. That's the trouble with
preachers. They don't know the men
to whom they are preaching; they
haven't a knowledge Of human nature;
the best way to acquire all is to work
on the press.'
