Date of Election Day

Can you tell me why the first Tues day after the first Monday in Novem Der Is election day in most of the states of the union and always that appointed for the presidential election? Why not say at once the first Tuesday in November? THOMAS D. NJ"
 At first glance l admit that I thought yours silly question. But, oddly enough. l chanced that day to pick up a paper asking the same. I repeat the reply given by the chief bibligrapher of the congressional library, to whom the matter was referred: "As to why the first Tuesday after the first Mon day in November instead of the first Tuesday in November was fixed for the date of presidential elections. we have to report that no satisfactory answer can be given" Yet I dare pass on the question to our constituents. They have solved so many tough problems that my confidence in their ability and re- sources Is wellnigh boundless

History of the Flag

"I am sending 8 self-addressed and stamped envelope. and will you kindly send me or tell me where l can get the complete history of our nations flag?
 Mrs. F. G. S.
 I do not know where you can get the complets history, although snatches of 1t appear often in the papers. The out line is briefly this: Up to 1775 each colony had it's own flag. Then com mittee was appointed to consider 9 single flag for the 1s states. Washing ton and one of his aids visited a young matron in Philadelphia noted for her embroidery and designs for heraldic emblems, etc. Her name was Betsey Ross. At the suggestion of the commit tee she undertook to design the national emblem. The story that 1t was. in some sort, fashioned after the Washington coat of arms Is hardly tenable since the said coat of arms displays the raven. and not the eagle, and has but two bars tand they are red) and three red stars. Be that as 1t may. the flag grew into being under "Betsey's" fin gers and the supervision of the military men, until there appeared the banner adopted by Congress in TIT. It was re- solved that the-~fag of the United States be IS stripes. alternate red and white, that the union be 13 stars, white in a blue field, representing new con stellation. The 13 stars represented the number of the original states. After Vermont. in 1790, and Kentucky. in 1Ts2. joined the union there were 15 stars and as many stripes upon the flag. And still the number grew until in 1918 1t was determined to go back to the 13 stripes, but to add star for each new state admitted to the union.

GLENDALE

Last Saturday night was no exception
to the rule of night drunkenness anC
disorderly conduct, not withstanding
our new police officer, in whom we had
such confidence. Whiskey was plenti-
| ful, and all who wished to imbibe found
no difficulty in quenchng their thirst,
both men and women seemed to enjoyed
the sport, but Sunday morning brought
the usual number Of sore heads and
tangled legs.
We are more than usually disappoint-
ed with an effort for the last two weeks,
to bring together our people to consider
a fire fighting apparatus but with all
the firm promises made by prominent
citizens, not even a small organization
cou be effected. 1t has been promised
that another effort will be made in tn e
near future to bring the matter up be-
fore the people.
With the country now in peace it be-
hooves US to prepare for war and have
ableboded and patriotic citizens. Ellen
dale is determined to do her part, and
this week has brought into the world
two small future citizens. Mr.. and Mrs.
Cove Smith are being congratulated on
the birth of ten pound son, while Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Doublestein have fine
German boy that weighs just twelve
pounds, but il is likely that Germany
will need all her proud sons, even of
American birth.
W. S. Dickerson is still seriously i'll.
Dropsical effection has developed, which
forbodes no encouragement. Her family
are in great distress for her safety. Her
daughter, Mrs. Mary Price, of Skillman,
is at her bedside, and the skill DR.. San
son is bending every effort for her re-
covery.
Oscar Postles, son of the butcher,
Luke Postles, suffered a painful acci-
dent last week, while butchering a steer.
The animal, inhis wild dash for freedom
ran a horn through Mr.. POstles' hand.
He is suffering great pain.
Rev. Kelley is attending conference
and his presence here is much missed.
1t is hoped and believed that he will re-
turn to us another year. His daughter,
Miss Mary Kelly, of Wilmington, is
visitor at the parsonage during his
absence. Paul Pry.

CHILD'S TONGUE
BECOMES COATED
If CONSTIPATED
When cross, feverish and sick give
California Syrup Of Figs

Children love this fruit laxa-
tive and nothing else cleanses
the tender stomach, liver and
bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop
playing to empty the bowels and
the result Is, they become tightly
clogged with waste. liver gets
sluggish, stomach sours, then your
little one becomes cross, half-sick,
feverish, doesn't eat, sleep or act
naturally, breath is bad, system
full Of cold, has sore throat,
stomach ache or diarrhoea.
Listen. Mother! See II tongue
is coated, then give a tea
spoonful of California Syrup
Of Figs" and In few hours all
the constipated waste, sour bile
and undigested food passes out of
the system. and you have a we'll,
playful child again.
Millions of mothers give Cali
fornfa Syrup of Figs because 1t
is perfectly harmless: children
love it, and 1t never fails to act
on the stomach, liver and bowels.
Ask your druggist for a 50-cent
bottle Of California Syrup of
Figs" which has full directions
for babies. children of all ages and
for grown-ups plainly printed on
the bottle. Beware of counter
feits sold here. Get the genuine,
made by California Fig Syrup
Company" Refuse any other
kind with contempt.
