The stars and Stripes have made he
roes of several million men and these
men have made this nation great In
time of war the flag goes forward over
fields of glory. ana dying men lift up
their heads and bless 1t as 1t passes
But in times of peace We are not so
particular about 1t. Some OF US bless
it -reverently while Others give 1t to
trained dogs and ponies to wave IN
vaudeville and still others stamp upon
it with great fury when they cannot
run the country to suit themselves.
1t is pretty hard to die for the Stars
and Stripes. lust at present, but we can
at least remember that If a million sol
diers have loved this country enough to
die under its flag in time of war, the
rest of US should have enough affection
to refrain from grabbing everything
loose in time Of peace. The soldier who
starved in prison because he would not
desert his flag must feel pretty cheap
nowadays when millions of breathless
men are tramping on the features OF the
Goddess of Liberty in their mad desire
to get instantaneoUsly rich.
Let us take this day off to admire the
Stars and Stripes and to form stern
resolutions to keep this great country
of ours worth diving for again, If neces-
