NEW CASTLE, June 14.-This is
F.ag Day:
See, all its Stars are priceless gems,
The brightest in Times diadems.
And as the feeting years go by
II bOrrows others from the sky
o, Stars lead Freedoms mighty host
Till every human heart may boast
In every land beneath the Sun
That all her battles have been won.
It fires the heart of youth and age
With the spirit of a deathless page;
II breaks Oppression's iron rod
Bids all the world have faith in God.
0. Flag, lead Freedoms mighty host
Tit every human heart may boast
In every land beneath the sun
That all her battles have been won.
