Francis Scott Key.

You may have seen him on the
streets. or in the Government
buildings, this sturdy, erect little
man, who fought the Stars and
Stripes for four years, but nom
spends nearly all his time at his
self-appointed task of seeing that
Old Glory is not insulted by a dis
play of ragged and tattered speci-
mems of the flag.
He still wedrs the Stars and
Bars, for he is a member of Camp
III, Confederate Veterans. But
Minter Key, related to Francis
Scott Key, takes off his hat to no
one, he mill tell you, in honoring
the Stars and Stripes.
With the same persistence and
courage that led to his promotion
to captain of spies under Gen.
Lucius Polk, he now fearlessly
carries his plea for whole, new,
fresh flags, to high Government Of

Mr.. Minter now is seventy-four
years old. Ever since the civil war
he has been active in movements Of
a semi-public nature. He was an
agent of the Washington Humane

in the flag may be accentuated by
the fact that he is a distant rela-
tive of Francis Scott Key.

My father was proud of that re-
lationship," he said. and one Of my
earliest memories was his graphic
story Of the day Of the attack upon
Fort McHenry, when Key wrote his
famous song.

the first stanza Of the immortal song,
written in bronze, and looked at the
hand pointing TO the flag nearby, a
sensation OF reverence came over me,
and tears came TO my eyes, despite
my efforts to keep them back.

BOND TRADING TO BE RESUMED
 NEXT SATURDAY

New York, Nov. 25-Governors of the Stock lExchange. voted yesterday to re- open the board on Saturday for trading in bands under restrictions which in clude the establishment Of minimum prices and the prohibition of sales on which deliveries cannot be made on the following day. The decision of the Governors was unanimous and ac- companied by an expression of thanks to the committee of i've for their ef- forts in the conduct of the Exchange since it closed on July 31.The keen in- terest taken in the meeting was dis played in the fact that thirty y-nine of the forty Governors were there.
 The committee aof lie had consid- cred practically all details for renew ing business before the Governors got together, and little was left to do ex- cept to hear the comInittee's report and ratdfy its recommendations It was specified that for a few days the ticker would not be used in recording prices and the progress of trading. In- stead, it was decided to have issued four times a. day-instead Of twice as has been castomary-the official Sheet of bond transactions, and to distribute them among all the Stock Exchange houses.
 The first sheet will be made up, ac- cording to present plans. before bs1si- ness starts and wil1 set forth the low est price for each bond at which sales may be made. Thereafter minimum prices will not change during the ses- sion, and the subsequent sheets will re- cord individual transactions as they occur
 The committee Of i've, acting with subcommittee that has regulated trading in bonds since the Exchange closed. will be on the floor constantly for a. time, to solve any problem that may arise under the extraor1inafy plan for conducting business in se- curtties.
