COLORED FLAGPOLES.
Tall Stats of Red and Even Of Green
Are Now Occasionally to
Be Seen.

''White is, of course, still the prevail
ing color for painting fagpoles," said
flag pole man, according to the New
York Sun, ''but you seenowadaysm more
colored flag poles than you used to, and
Idon't know but what like the colored
fagpoles pretty well. White is, sup
pose, after all the proper color for q
fagpole. The white pole seems to
stand up more mast like and defiant,
but the colored pole is more pictur-
esque.
"The poles that thus far have been
painted in other colors than white have
most of them been painted red, terra
Gotta red. And il my Judgment this
deep red is pretty good color for a
flagstaff. Red is a good color to stand
exposure; it shows wear less than
white does. and SO the people paint 'em
red.
"As to green, that must say seems
at first like an odd and inappropriate
color for a flagstaff surmounting a
building; nevertheless, a pole in dark
green may be a dignifed and slightly
object, and there is one advantage per-
tanning to green pole, namely, it
shows off the gilt TOP piece, if there is
one, to fine advantage. have in mind
one dark green pole upon the summit
of which, rising above the gilded me-
tallic fixture indicating the points of
the compass, is fine, gilded eagle,
this whole top piece of gold showing
very strikingly and effectively by con-
trast with it's dark green support"
