lawyers came forward with a motion
for a rehearfng and in support offered
several afidayits.
Two were by Mrs. amelia Fischer

No Possession OF Country More
Loyalty Loved and Revered.
There is no possession Of a country
which is more deeply revered, more
consistently loved or more loyalty sup
ported than its national flag. In our
country is this especially true, for in
that one emblem are embodied all the
principles which our forefathers up
held, all the benefits of a century and
u quarter of enlightened progress ana
all the hope and assurance of a promis-
ing future.
The stripes of alternate red and white
proclaim the original union of thirteen
states to maintain the Declaration of
Independence It's stars, white on a
field of blue, proclaim that union of
states constituting our national cOnstel-
lation which receives a new star with
every state. Thus the stars and stripes
signify union and 'in union there is
strength"
The very colors have a significance
White stands for purity, red for valor
and blue for justice, together forming a
combination which it is our inherited
privilege to honor and uphold
1t is not the flag of q king or an en-
pero" or a president. 1t is the flag Of
the people, brought into being by their
will, defended when necessary by their
patriotism and to which they turn
for protection in time of danger. No
matter into what parties our people
may be divided, due to political beliefs
and leanings, they all stand united
under one flag 1t is the emblem Of
unity, safety and faith st. Nicholas.

zen exciting. It was, of course, in
committee. The findings were in
substance that Watson's charges
were unsustained. There was a
minority report headed by his
friend, Jerry Simpson, who was
on the committee. The natural
result would have been either cen
sure at the bar of the House or
expulsion from the House.
"'HoWever, to save Watson from
the joy of martyrdom, the matter
was passed over without any ac-
ton by the House.
Speaking of Mr.. Watson, while
in the House, Speaker Reed said
that he never understood the Bib

colt" until Watson came to Con-
gress.

Every man in Georgia, in the

his abuse. Collectively he has an

Magazine he prints an editorial
under this heading: "The Vaga.

1.-The Democratic party is bank
