LAYMAN MAKES
STRONG ADDRESS

One CT the strongest addresses ever
delivered from the pulpit Of the First
Methodist church, was delivered
BY a Iayman, Prof. R H. PEBBLES. If
Battle Ground Academy. Franklin, on
Sunday morning from the text Thou
art Peter, and Upon this Rock | Build
Nv Church" The address was full OF
sound advice and was a splendid ex-
position Of the subject He said that
Peter, standing upon the rock OF
truth. with the granite foundation
beneath him, acknowledged the recog-
milton of Christ's divinity and Christ
founded his church upon the eternal
rock OF truth
Prof. PEBBLES spoke OF the essential
need OF character: its whole fabric
rests on truth Mans character. he
said. Is what he is and not what
he pretends to be, OF what the people
think of him He drew a vivid dis
tinction between real character and
reputation: between tie way q man
discharges the real duties OF life and
the manner in which he makes the
public believe that he is fulfilling
LIES mission.
The speaker Illustrated this point
by referring to the small men who
hold once and who display their lit
tleneas and evidence their utter lack
OF character upon every occasion
While on the contrary great men Of
ten do heroic deeds without the
thought Of public recognition. He re
ferred to the real greatness OF Sam
Davis, who went TO bis death rather
than betray a confidence. Other
equally striking Illustrations were
made
In conclusion the speaker declared
that true living among the people was
not only the foundation Of the church.

otisn when occasion demands.
Because of the wide use Of the flag
for advertising purposes during the
past fifteen years a movement has been
undertaken by the American Flas
Association, the Sons Of the. American
Revolution. the Daughters of the
American Revolution and the Trade
Unions to secure national and state
legislation for the protection of the
flag against such degrading uses. While
legislation has not yet been secured,
public sentiment has been awakened
and the flag is receiving more rever-
ence.
The first time the stripes design was
publicly recognized as the American
Tag was when it was flown from Pros
pect Hill. Somerville, Massachusetts,
early in January. 1875. Though a New
York regiment had borne ten-stripe
flag, a design borrowed from the Brit
ish East India Company, its use had
only been local The Prospect Hill flag
was the one selected by the committee
that Congress had sent over from
Philadelphia to Cambridge to confer
with Washington as to the adoption
of some national emblem. Thirteen
stripes We're chosen to represent the
thirteen colonies, adopted. some say out
of compliment to Washington's coat OF
arms. These stripes were made Of the
same width TO express the equal i'm
portance of the colonies and were sew

purpose White was chosen to rep
resent the idea of just and reasonable
demands that might be secured by
peaceable means. Red was chosen to
the force and determination
that must be used, If necessary, to Sc
cure justice.
This first flag bore the British union.

the union of the crosses of St. George
of England and St. Andrew of Scot
land under James I, giving the flag
its name of Union Jack. Later stars.

erty were used. set in a circle to rep
resent the endlessness of the colonies
Some authorities claim
that the stars. too, came from Wash
ington's coat of arms on which are dis
played three ''mullets" or roweIs.
The men who carved the nation from
the chaos Of political strife did not
forsee the possibilities Of forty-six
commemorative when they designed
the flag All the empire their minds
could then compass was hedged about
by the territory of other nations. So
when now states began to appear,
ordered that a new stripe
and new star be added for each new
conner. BY 1918. when territorial ex-
oansion was proceeding on stupen-
1ous scale. il was seen that the flag

SPEAK FROM FENCE
1911 Given the Privilege of Occupying the Historic
 Seat.
G-WINDED 0RATl0MS
Carl Lehman Speaks for Sophomores, and Carroll Clark Accepts
 for Freshmen.

Practically the entire student body last evening attended the exercises at the Yale fence, consisting of the for nal transfer of the much prized seats from the sophomore to the freshmen class. Had the freshmen won the baseball game from Harvard, they would nave been allowed to sit on the fence several weeks ago. and the game fight put up for fourteen in- nings showed how this honor was cov- eted.
 Carl Albert Lohman of Akron. Ohio. was the orator for the sophomores and he talked about quarters of an hour. He explained at great length what a privilege 1t is to be q sophomore and what n disgrace to be freshman. And nothing had ever been such a disgrace as to be mem Der of 1911. If Elihu Yale could have foreseen the class which some times would decorate the fence, he would have named some other fate for 1t.
 Not at all feazed by his predeces- sors' address Carroll Clark of And over, politely thanked the donors, and stated that he fully realized the inn portance of the privilege of sitting on the fence. After he had finished the freshmen took the fence and occupied it until the showers of the evening drove them to their studies.
