are searching for trees that are af-
fiicted with disease or insects. This

where a disease is destroying thou

The boys have been of great help to
the forestry department in detecting
this disease and reporting the trees
thus afflicted to the department Of for

That work afforded an excellent

Emblem of Church Should Be First

A CHURCH flag is the emblem and
~ standard of God, and to place 1t
above the flag of the United States
during religious services aboard a
vessel is but little enough recognition
of God, it was asserted the other day
by DR.. E. M. Blackwell, of the navy.
81 have noticed that certain parties
object to the church pennant being
hoisted above the national flag on
board ship of the navy during divine
services, stating in effect that there
is nothing paramount to the national
flag" DR.. Blackwell said
"As regards other nations and flags
and other human organizations, fully
agree that there is nothing para
mount to the United States or it's flag.
but there is Supreme Power or
Force that Is paramount to every
thing earthly, and the emblem Of that
Supreme Power or Force, when hoist
ed, should be hoisted above every
other flag or emblem.
"As / understand it, the church
flag. whether Christian, Jew, Budd-
hist, Brahman, Confucian, Mahomme-
dan, or what not, is the emblem and
standard of God to that religion and
not of the religion itself.
Different nations and peoples have
conflicting ideas of God. Some re-
gard Him as Supreme Being, others
as the great Force or Power Of the
universe or nature; but, however we
regard Him, we should recognize Him

MADE BIG PROFIT FOR STATE
Purely Business Argument for the Es-
tabIishment Of Sanitoriums for
the tuberculosis.

According to figures contained In the
annual report of DR.. H. L. Barnes, SUI
perintendent of the Rhode Island state
sanitorium, the earnings Of the ex-
patients of that institution during the
year 1911 would amount to over $685.
600. This is a sum three times as
large as that spent each year for main
tenance of the institution, including
four per cent. interest and deprecia-
ton charges.
The actual earnings in 1911 Of ITO
ex-patients were obtained by DIR.
Barnes. These ranged from 81 to
S31 per week, the total earnings for
the year amounting to $102,752. On
this basis, DR.. Barnes computes the
figures above given. He says, how
ever: while institutions for the cure
of tuberculosis are good investments.
there is good reason for thinking that
institutions for the isolation Of far
advanced cases would be still better
investments"

the state on an average 5000 per pa

Out of 1872 patients having homes, the
