As the Flag Goes BY.

(By II. c. Bunner.)
Off with your hat as the Flag goes by,
And let the heart have it's say;
You're man enough for a tear in Your
eye
That you will not wipe away
You're man enough for thrill that
goes
To your very finger tips
Ay. the lump just then in your throat
that rose
Spoke more than your parted lips.
Lift up the boy on your shoulder, high,
And show him the faded shred
Those stripes would be red as the sun
set sky
If death could have dyed them red
The man that bore it with death has
lain
These 80 years and more
He died that the work should not be
OF the men who bore it before.
The man that bears 1t is bent and old,
And ragged his beard and gray
But look at his eye fire young and bold
At the tune that he hears them play
The old tune thunders thru all the air.
And strikes right into the heart:
If il ever calls for you. boy be there.
Be there and ready to start
Off with your hat as the Flag goes by,
Uncover the youngsters head,
Teach him TO hold il holy and high,
For the sake of its sacred dead.

And half world away,
Rose-red and blood-red

The Stars Of the states.

Flag of freedom and emblem of glory,
Hope of the world in each floating
fold.
Long and wild and deathless the story
Flung to the winds when thy stars
are unrolled.
The thirteen stars of the fight with
Great Britain,
Through strenuous years, by land
and by sea.
Till they proved to the world the great
words written,

freei"
The stars of the States of bluegrass
and prairie,
The splendid prize of the bold pio-

Won from the savage, dark, cruel and

BY peril and hardship. by blood and
by tears.
The stars Of the States Of the golden
treasure,
Won on the fields of the fiery fray
Where the Southwest poured its blood
without measure.

There is no doubt in my mind about
the President being too hasty in dis
honorably dismising battalion of 25th

know it wrong to condemn an entire

been done during the civil war how
many of us would have gone free? To

did the entire battalion get their guns

A Novel Form of Nail.

A novel type of nail has recently been
invented by Mr.. Charles A Brdsali of
Holden, Mo. for use with all kinds of
woodwork where a smooth finish is de-
sired. The body of the nail is of the
usual form, but the head is provided
with pair of pronss which are adapt
ed 10 be driven into piece of wood to
bind it to the timber in which the main
body is imbedded. The form of the
nail is clearly illustrated in Fig. l, which
shows the body of the nail driven into Il
timber. In order to drive the nail home
without bending or injuring the prongs
that project from the head Il special tool
is employed. which is illustrated in Fig.
2. This consists of a punch formed with
a recess in one end adapted to receive
the prongs. This recess is centrally di-
vided by cross-plate which is adapted
to fit between the prongs. A transverse

The Name Of Old Glery.
(By James Whitcomb Riley.)


Old Glory. say, who,
BY the ships and the crew,
And the long. blended ranks of the
gray and the blue,
Who gave you, Old Glory, the name
that you bear
With such pride everywhere
AS you cast yourself free through the
rapturOuS air
And leap out full length, as we're
wanting you to?
Who gave you that name, with the
ring of the same.
And the honor and fame so becoming
to you?
Your stripes stroked in ripples of white
and of red,
With your stars at their glittc-:ag best
overhead,
By day or by night
Their delightfulest light
Laughing down from their little square
heaven of bluei
Who gave you the name of Old Glory?
Say. who
Who gave you the name of Old Glory?
The old banner lifted, and faltering
then
In vague Iisps and whispers fell silent
Old Glory, speak out. we are asking
about
How you happened to flavor" a name,
So to say,
That sounds so familiar and careless
and gay
As We cheer it and shout in our wild
breezy way
We-the crowd. every man of u.s. call
ing you that
,We-TOm, Dick. and Harry-each
swinging his hat
And hurrahing "OId Glory" like you
were our kin,
When. Lord we all know we're as
common as sin!
And yet it just seems like YOU humor
us all
And watt us your thanks, as we hail
YOU and fall
Into line, with you over us, waving US
on
Where our glorified, sanctified betters
have gone.
And this is the reason we're wanting
to know
(And we're wanting it so-wherc our
own fathers went we are willing
to goD
Who gave you the name of Old Glory

Who gave you the name of Old Glory?
The old flag unfurled with billowy
thrill
For an instant, then wistfully sighed
and was still.
Old Glory, the story we're wanting to
hear
Is what the plain facts of your chris
tening were,
For your name-jus. to hear it.
Repeat it and cheer it, s a tang to the
spirit
As salt as tear
And seeing you fly and the boys march,
ing by,
There's shout in the throat and a
blur in the eye
And an aching TO live for you always
or die.
If, dying. we still keep you waving
on high.
And so. by our love
For you, floating above,
And the stars of all wars and the sor-
rows thereof.
Who gave you the name of Old Glory.
and why
Are we thrilled at the name of Old
Glory?
Then the old banner leaped, like
sail in the blast.
And iluttered an audible answer at

voice. and ii said:

OF my bars, and their heaven Of stars

Or droop DER the sod where the long

Remember.

Out of the mellow West there came
| A man whom neither praise nor blame
| Could gid or tarnish; one who rose
With fate-appointed swiftness far
Above his friends. above his foes;
Whose life shone like a splendid star,
To fill his peoples hearts with flame;
Who never sought for gold or fame;
But gave himself without price
A willing. humble sacrifice
An erring Nations Paschal Lamb
The great, gaunt, patient Abraham.
never saw his wrinkled face.
Where tears and smiles disputed place;
never touched his homely hand,
That seemed in benediction raised,
Fen when it emphasized command,
What time the fires of battle blazed,
The hand that signed the act of grace
Which freed a wronged and tortured
race;
And yet I feel that he is mine
My country's; and that light divine
Streams from the sanity oriflamme
Of great, gaunt, patient Abraham.
He was our standard bearer; he
Caught up the thread of destiny,
And round the breaking Union bound
And wove it firmly. To his task
He rose gigantic: nor could sound
OF menace daunt him. Did he ask
For homage when glad Victory
ofto"Cu iiiS mugs II Oili scd " Std
Nay, but he staunched the wounds of
war;
And you owe all you have and are
And / owe all I have and am
To great, gaunt, patient Abraham.
The pillars of our temple rocked
Beneath the mighty wind that shocked
Foundations that the fathers laid;
But he upheld the roof and stood
Fearless, while others were afraid;
His sturdy strength and faith were
good,
While coward knees together knocked,
And traitor hands the door unlocked,
To let the unbeliever in.
He bore the burden of our sin.
While rebel voices rose to damn
The great, gaunt, patient Abraham.
And then he died a martyrs death
Forgiveness in his latest breath,
And peace upon his dying lips.
He died for me; he died for you;
Heaven help us if his memory slips
Out of our hearts! His soul was true
And clean and beautiful. What saith
Dull history that reckoneth
But coldly? That he was man
Who loved his fellows as few can;
And that he hated every sham
Our great, gaunt, patient Abraham.
Majestic. sweet was Washington;
And Jefferson was like the sun
He glorified the simplest thing
He touched; and Andrew Jackson
seems
The impress of fiery king
To leave upon US: these in dreams
Are oft before us; but the one
Whose vast work was so simply done
The Lincoln o our war-tried years
Has all our deepest love; in tears,
We chant the In Memoriam
Of great. gaunt. patient Abraham.

The ocean guarded flag of light, for
ever may it fly!
1t flashed DER. Monmouth's bloody
fight, and lit McHenry's sky;
1t bears upon its folds of flame to
earth's remoteSt wave
The names of men whose deeds of
fame shall e'er inspire the brave.
Timbers have crashed and guns have
pealed beneath its radiant glow,
But never did that ensign yield its
honor to the foe:
Its fame shall march with martial
tread down ages yet to be,
To guard these stars that never paled
in fight on land or sea.
It's stripes Of red, eternal dyed with
heart-streams of all lands;
Its white. the Snow-capped hills that
hide in storm their appraised hands;
Its blue, the ocean waves that beat
round freedoms circled shore;
Its stars, the stripes of angels feet
that turn for evermore.
