poetic as ours! When George Wash
ington ana Robert Norris and Colonel
Ross. the committee appointed by the
Second Continental congress, visited
Betsy Ross in her Philadelphia home,
they accomplished Il great work. Ihat
flag symbolized thirteen different gov
ernments in one. and still that one gov
crnment kept its thirteen distinct IN
,liyidualities. The thirteen bars ana
the thirteen stars represented the thlr-
teen colonies which afterward became
the thirteen states. Then. after Yer
ment and Kentucky. the first Of the new
states. were added to the Union, the
thirteen bars and thirteen stars We're
changed into fifteen bars ana ntteen
stars. but now, by law, there are stun
tbe original thirteen bars, but every
state has a star. Thus today the Amer
ican flag has forty-hve different states
in one government-One great govern
ment with forty-five different, distinct
states. Beautiful is the symbolism!
But is not the gospel banner just as
beautiful in symbol? Does it not make
Ms one with God? Like a chameleon
It continually changes Its colors. one
day it is all red, reminding us that we
are one with God. through the blood Of
the cross. Another day it is all white
suggesting purity, as Christ is pure.
Another day it is all blue. That sig
nifies our infnity of divine resources
as space itself is filed with blue. Oh,
the glorious, the transcending, the in

We are all ready to recognize the use
fulness of pruning hook in a tenn
poraI sense. Why can we not do this
in a spiritual sense?
To the spiritual weakling the death
Of the strong Christian is not always
n misfortune. but a blessing. Let me
illustrate this truth in a simple way:
Some years ago there lived in your
town a noble, true man, who was the
father of Il large family. Suddenly he
died. The friends who came into the
bereft home not only sympathized
with the widow because she had lost
her husband but because she seemed
to have no visible means of support.
Her eldest son was a nothing He
was hothouse plant He had de-
pended in the past entirely upon his
father. Mentally and morally he seem
ed to be entirely united to assume the
responsibilities of the home. But hard
" had the father died when change
came over the boy. Instead of being
n clinging vine he stiffened into a stall
vart oak. He went TO work to supply
bread sfor that family of little ones.
He became the stan upon which his
mother leaned 1t was the death Of his
father that developed him, 1t was the
billock of a paternal grave by which
the son was able to find his stepping
stones to a throne. God, l believe,
often uses the sharp pruning hook Of
death to spiritually develop his unde-
velopcd children. He takes away his
Moses in order to throw the spiritual
responsibilities upon his Joshuas. He
saws to us one and all: 1t is not right
for you. oh, young nan, to learn to
lean upon your fathers and mother S
spiritual life! You must learn to lean
unon my divine arm, and mine alone
And in the leaning ] viii protect thee
and care for thee, as 1 did for your

show that twelve Of the thirteen state
institutions reported earnings in their
annual settlement with the auditor.
The twelve institutions earned al ag-
gregate of $l2s, O659s. The report.
however, does not explain how the
money was earned. The Indiana re.
formatory earned $50, OO3.77; the state
prison, 2,259.S2: the Industrial
School for Girls and women's prison.

Beware OF the Gun.

One of the Chicago bandits said
thai his first step that led him tC
the life of crime was when his father
allowed him to have gun and go Out
and kill innocent birds and animals.
The gun had great fascination fol
him, as it has for many boy. and
from frequent use Of it, he became SC
thoroughly infatuated with the idea
OF shooting something that he could
not bear to go unarmed, SO he procur.
ed revolver to carry with him at all
times, and from shooting at an inno-
cent rabbit or at innocent birds he
sought men as the victims of his
workmanship.
The idea of this bad fellow was that
he could shoot at ANYTHING and man s
life was no more to him than cat S
life. The gun was a part Of bis
being and there was little difference in
pulling his revolver from bis pocket
and firing at whatever came in his way
than he did of taking out his jack
knife and whiting stick. He grew
not TO use bis weapon as means of
defense, but Of attack and thus he was
led into the ways of darkest crime.
How many boys there are who have
become cruel, hard-hearted towards
the suffering of other beings, and even
vicious through the gift Of gun at
Christmas or on a birthday anniver-
sary. The gun should be tabooed
from every respectable family. 1t is
a dangerous implement to have around
at best, as more accidents take place
in households from this source any
any other, and a boy who gets lnfat-
uated with a gun and is allowed to use
one when and how be pleaseS is in
danger Of growing up bad man.

ment by the government of $50, oOo,-
900. Just how this payment is to be
made. SO that it will cause the least
disturbance to the money market, has
not at present been decided. but Sec
tary Shaw is reported to have put his
absolute veto on all suggestions that
it be bond issue.
The government is, it is true, facing
a daily deficit in its balance between
receipts and expenditures, but in view
of the large available cash balance
now on hand this deficit is anything
but alarming. The expenditures for
the fiscal year up to last Saturday
amounted to s235, 4Ss, OFT, and the re.
ceipts amounted to 1921. 1859, 229. The
deficit for five months, lacking one
business day. was therefore only s4,.
12s. 1873. The month OF November
began, however, with a small surplus,
and the deficit on the months business
taken by itself will be close TO S5,.
| 600, 900. Expenditures are larger this
year than last, and receipts are
smaller, some gain in internal revenue
and miscellaneous receipts being more
than offset by tho decline in custom
receipts.
Even should the present rate of de-
felt continue, the government woulc
still be perfectly able to meet the
