In answer to the worn-out argu-

act as maximum, Hackett declared
that it would not then any more than
it does now, where in every case there

Might is money, and money rules,
And many are the human tools
Who serve their masters all too well
For paltry sums that never swell,
Because the knowing highbrow sees
The wisdom of their prayers and
pleas,
But strengthens that grand system
which
Has made the poor man and the rich.
The law may boost a stately ship,
While Joker Justice yields whip
AS vigorously as before
To satisfy puny score,
Who with great billions at their beck
Can waylay any hapless wreck,
Possessed of human heart and soul
That they may reach some vain-born
goal.
But might is measured not with
scorn, z
For power there is as yet unborn
That will set all right the ev'ry wrong
And ease all suffering 'mongst the

If workers would but know that

The power is theirs, and theirs the

FLAG DAY.
Some Suggestions as to Observance of
the Day.

the Day.
More and more as the years come and
90. we realize the significance of Flag
day-June "A, Old Glory's birthday.
For one hundred and thirty-seven years,
the stars and stripes have been the Wis
ible symbol of our nationality, and with
but few changes. The original plan of
an additional stripe and star for each
state added TO the union soon proved i'm
practicable, the narrowing of the stripes
detracting from the beauty of the flag;
and so. in 1878, the number of stripes
was fixed at thirteen, the number of the
original states, and star has been
added for each newcomer, until now we
have a constellation of forty-eight stars
upon the azure field.
Sometimes we hear rumors of pro-
posed changes in our flag but it is diff
cult to believe that anything like an or
ganized movement for that purpose cS-
lists. Our banner is so beautiful, so sat
isfying sentimentally and artistically
that no true American of any section
could wish to see it changed or displaced.
On Flag day we unite to do honor to
it. to demonstrate our love for it, to re-
tell its story. II is an especially fitting
time to call attention to the desecration
to which it is sometimes subject, be-
cause of the carelessness which seems
TO be an American popularity, for IT IS
said that all other great nations uphold
the dignity Of their standard to great

President Wilson Is Expect

Monday

Washington, June l3.--Only the presi-

act exempting American ships from tolls.
The long bitter congressional tight

Berlin, Germany. June l3.-The So

Prussian Diet are protesting against
"the long unkept promise of the King. I"
More than six years ago the emperor,
as king of Prussia, declared it to be his

place of the existing three-class, non

termed "thc most iniquitous system

The marriage was an idyll, Queen
Amelia looked upon the daughter Of her

possessing all those qualities which were
lacking in his character. The little prin-

manded, first of all, experience, and in
this the princess was totally lacking.
She found that Manuel was careless,
easy going, almost irresponsible youth,
irresolute but yet capable of sudden and
unforeseen obstinacy. He on his side saw
in her narrow minded authoriticial,
a passion for housekeeping and other
domestic virtues which fell in neither
with his tastes nor his requirements.
Under these circumstances quarrel was

to smooth away the differences between
the young couple, but they are not OPP

CHOOSES AMERICAN STYLE.
King Christians Newest Residence Shall

Copenhagen, June liking Christian

numerous residences shall be furnished
in American style in every detail. lie

can multi millionaire. The style he mas
selected to copy is that OF the simple
and efficient equipment of the average
American home. He has long been an
admirer of the American arts and con-
vcniences of home making and he has in
sisted that his newest house, which ~
situated on the Skaw, will lack none
of them.
The excuse for SO many residences as
King Christian has in so small a coun-
try as Denmark is his fondness of keep
ing in touch with his people, which, he
maintains. he cannot do better than by
living everywhere.
The king maintains an elaborate en-
courage. but it is only for the enter
tainment of visiting soyereigns and dip
lomats. As for himself he lives In the
most simple manner. No ruler in Eu-
rope is more easily accessible.
Recently ON visit to Nakskov, the
king was attracted by delicious apple

there bought some cake for small boy

learned the identity of her royal Gus
toner and she promptly hung out sign

During the late motor show the king
evinced keen interest in the display OF
American motor cars and when he
bought 80 lottery tickets he expressed
the hope that he would win an American
car.

Salaries of Moving Picture Directors.

In the July Woman's Home Compan.
ion Daniel Frohman, the well known
theatrical manager, writes a practical
article entitled How to Write a Nov
ing Picture Play" which contains many
interesting stories and also suggestions
of great value to authors who would like
to take up the writing of moving picture
scenarios. On the Importance of the
moving picture director Mr.. Frohman
saws:
There are not many people gifted
with the ability to prepare a moving
picture scenario or outline of the cpl
sodes wanted for a story; when they
have that talent, their services are well
paid for by the manufacturers In fact,
the different firms carry their official
dramatists, or stage directors men who
draw salaries of $4,000 or more-men
of rare creative ability. One well known
director draws $4,000 a year."
