Flag day has come to stay. Is is now
an established institution, and June IA
will each wear mean a demonstration in
honor of our national ensign. Last
year. all days were flag days, the patri-
otto impulse Of the American people
moving them to keep the nations
beautiful emblem always and every
where in sight, and it was impos sioie
to distinguish it from many days that
came before and after it. But there
were many more flags in sight, yester-
day, all over the country than on other
days. Augusta displayed many, but
would have done credit to itself to have
more generally observed the day. 1t
will do better, next year.

Can health and hope afford
And JOY impart

A tender word of cheer,
To soothc ana calm the troubled soul

Sweet solace to afford

The gift is small,
Yet great is the reward
The seed we scatter far and wide
Along the mellow field -

And rich abundance yield;
And everywhere the loving heart
May east its precious gold,
Yet feel no lack,

How rich the recompense we win
For favors slight and small!
How little cause we have to fear
That we shall lose our ali!
And yet how many, mserltkc.

And miss the sweet reward!
