Nation Will surmount Difficulties.


The republic is not ungrateful. 1t has
given such honors and rewards as were
never given elsewhere, but we individuals
may be ungrateful if we do not show by
our living that we prize what was bought
for us with the blood of our best The
eyes of the world are on US not simply with
admiration, but with criticism, sharpened
sometimes perhaps by envy and jealousy,
and we must justify our claim to the proud
name Of Americans. l believe we shall do
so. I believe we shall meet our difficulties
at home and abroad great as they are,
with the same herOism and altruism as Were
shown by our forefathers.
Tonight the flag waves over more terrific
~ and over more people than ever before,
but it is the same old flag, and stands for
the same old blessings Here in it's home,
in the national capital which, unlike the
states, has never known any other than the
national flag, we salute it lovingly and rev.
erently for all that it represents in the
past and in the future
Two Views of the Flag.
Two other numbers added materially to
the interest Of the concert. One was the
recitation of ]. Rodman brakes lode to
the American Flag" by Mr.. Charles B.
Hanford, for many years resident of
Washington and now widely distinguished
as one of the best readers on the American
professional stage. The other was THE
STORY OF the SldTS, tOlu by lSdDel
Worrell Ball, with the assistance of Misses
Elsie Frances Howe and Josephine O1drOyd
Tiefenthaler, two little girls, and Miss Abbie
Johnson, as color bearer The last named
traces her descent back to John Adams
and the days when the American flag was
created. Mrs. Ball developed the flag his
tory Of America step by step, from the
days when the colors of Spain heralded the
light of European civilization to those when
the red, white and blue carried the newer
light of American ideals to the savages Of
the South sea. With the two little girls
the speaker illustrated the cutting Of four
pointed, five-pointed and six-pointed stars.
Her address concluded with the unfurling
Of the flag of Cuba as new banner, which
came into existence as an outgrowth of the
high purposes represented in the stars and
stripes.
A drill by Company F of the High School
Cadet Corps ended the program. This COM
pany holds the prize offered annually by
| the High School authorities for the most
soldierly execution of long and compre-
hensive program of field maneuvers and
movements from the manual Of arms. The
drill Of Saturday night was restricted by
the limited space open to the young soldiers,
but it reflected great credit on the CORPS of
which Company F Is part.
Other Celebrations.
The exercises at the pension bureau oc-
CURED at o'clock Saturday afternoon and
followed the program published in Satur-

address excited much approving comment
His theme was that the American flae never
touched the ground and that its supporters
ought to keep their ideals true to so high a
standard. About 1900 persons attended.

the statement "health is bet
ter than wealth.. Those who
- have always had health are
liable to underrate the value of this
great blessing, but little illness brings
them to the realization of the fact that
life itself without health is worth little

the body needs relief. Thousands Of
women have been brought to the con
seriousness that they were sufferers and
needed medical attention Irregular
menstruation has been allowed to run
on until the system has become so run
down that there is hardly anything to

fails TO improve. She is beginning to
appreciate health, Then Wine of Cardui
Is brought to her attention. The
