To PUBLIC SCHOOL

Monday morning the exercises at the
High school we're little out OF the
ordinary. Our townsman and soldier
Of the Civil war, John Reed, gave to the
school a very nice American flag. O.
w. Rowland, in behalf Of Mr.. Reed
presented the stars and stripes with a
talk that was full of good advice to the
boys and girls and will tend to make the
fires of patriotism and love OF country
burn all the brighter. The band rend-
cred several selections and the school
united in singing America. 1t was a
most enjoyable opening of the weeks
work, and .he pupils will always cherish
the flag as long as it's folds shall fly over,

the Brave"

Mr.. Rowland desires to meke an ex
phantom of his remarks made at the
presentation of the flag presented to the
school at the morning exercises last
Monday morning. He was under the
impression that it came from the Grand
Army Post, whereas it was the individ-
ual gift of Comrade John Reed aud his
wife. 1t was a happy thought OF theirs
and fine thing to do. The school will
greatly appreciate the beautiful gift.
