Flags on Wisconsin ScIlOOlhOuses.

Chapter 81 Of the st tie laws of Wis
consin definitely requires the display
of the United Safes flag at school
houses everywhere in this state, eX-
cept during inclement weather. Tie
law provides that school directors
have the power to purchase the flag,
and they are required to see that it is
properly displayed The ilagstaff may
be on the schoolhouSe or in the
grounds, but it must be in a conspic-
uous place where the flag may unfurl
to the breezes and be seen by those
who pass, The flag in this instance
denotes tie close relationship between
school AMI state. One great differ
ence between America and South At
frica is that we have schools and are
constantly trying to educate and bet
ter ourselves In America the school
house always follows the flag. And
it is often a close race to determine
which lands first. Tie flag stands
-socr esree schools. freedom Of thought
aad action and fer every opportunity
which an enlightened mind and a
healthy body may permit. The coun-
try school expenses are paid by the
people, and in our system OF affairs
Jhe people are the government. At
least it is supposed to be. We have
not seen a rural school this year where
the flag has not been floating accord
ing TO law, but if there should be one
in Wisconsin. best get in line for this
proper and patriotic custom. No mat
ter what oar individual views may be
on some things we are all united for
the old flag, Let's show it by putting
Old Glory on all school grounds.
THE above article was read by one OF
our readers who learned for the first
time Of the existence of this law
passed at tile last session of the legis-
lature- He gave it TO US for republi-
cation thinking it might be new to
some others also.

ESTABLISH GREAT !
 AVIATION SCHOOL

Cairo, Egypt, Sept 3O.-(Corres- pondence of The Associated Press)- At place which can be resigned only las Somewhere in Egypt" the British forces are establishing what will be one of the largest and most complete lily equipped aviation schools in the world. An Associated Press corres- pendent who recently visited the site found the school was nearing comple- tion, and he was told that at least |seven thoroughly qualified pupils in the art of flying will be graduated each week so long as the war lasts, for service not only with British forces in Egyps, but elsewhere if their ser vices was demanded.
 This part of the world was chosen for the school mainly because it is adapted climatically to flying the whole year round, and because it is handy to the various theatres of war. Incidentally an observer here might remark that the sands of the desert also furnish soft bed for the mex perienced to fall upon.
 The school will accommodate, in ad4 dition to the pubils, fifty officers and 800 mechanics and other workers. Each student will require from four to six weeks training. A large number are already receiving instruction.

center at the end of 200 mile radius falls into the hands of the enemy.
 As result not only do the richest manufacturing cities in the country fall into the enemy's hands, but there are deeds done by the invading armies which turn the blood cold.
 In the midst of these terrors lovers are torn from each others arms, numberless families are scattered across the land, never to be reunited, women are dishon- ored and men slain like rats against a wall because they dared to defend their homes against the despoiler. Then, like the low beating of drum in the dis tance, which grows ever stronger, clearer, more inspiring as the drum- mer advances, recurs the underlying motif of the story-the call to arms against war; the call to arms of a mighty and martial host to sweep from the shores of America the enemies of the peoples liberties, and which, stand ing guard upon her frontiers, shall guarantee forever the sanctity of the homes within her borders.
 That is "The Battle Cry of Peace"- a call to the manhood and courage and nobility of the worlds greatest repub.

to show the 'pacifist" the suicidal na- ture of his policy, but MT. Vandergriff refuses to listen.
 Instead he continues his ''peace at any price" propaganda with such sue cess that when finally one of the great foreign powers, thirsting for the wealth of America, makes war sud- denly upon us, our coast defenses are outranged and undermanned, our fleet is dispersed and our army, unequipped with guns of sufficient caliber to de- stroy those of the enemy, is cut to pieces by the hostile artillery.
 There follows scene after scene of staggering power, in which the mil lions of people in New York flee like sheep before the great guns of the en- emy's fleet, and the tall buildings of Manhattan crumble and fall into the streets, spreading terror and death for blocks upon blocks filled with the mad dened people.
 The American fleet. battling heroical- 1y against overwhelming odds, is sunk off the coast of New Jersey in an en. gagement with the enemy, and the district which has New York for it's

lie to arm themselves in order that they may forever have peace.
 It is call not for an army of hire. lings, which is militarism, but for an army in which every man shall have his place in the ranks or in the coun. cils, an army in which will be found work for every one, no matter what his business or profession-an army. in other words, of the people, for the peo. pie and maintained for the preserva- tion of the peoples peace.
 The dramatic power of "The Battle Cry of Peace" and the beauty and winy someness of the love story which is' woven throughout the drama drew unanimous praise from the New York newspaper critics during it's long run in New York at the Vitagraph Theater. But the great thrill in the photo play, the underlying motif of it all, is the fact that it is literally battle cry of, peace, call to arms to all who are worthy of the name American to guard the honor and safety of their country and their homes with an armed force sufficient to guarantee forever tho peace and prosperity of free and hap py people.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1916-10-11

"1he Battle Cry of Peace," the great photo dramatic spectacle in which J. Stuart Blackton, head of the Vitagraph company, presents the distinguished American actor, Charles Richman, in the most vital, gripping and momentous screen drama ever produced, is remark able for the fact that it proves that military and naval preparedness against a possible foe is not necessarily that bugaboo of the cracker box politician, '.militarism."
 "The Battle Cry of Peace" tells the story of a, young New York business man who, going to lecture on prepar- edness given by Hudson Maxim, the we'll known inventor, is greatly inn pressed by what he hears and becomes convinced that his country's lack of preparation against war is great and ever present menace to the peace and happiness of the people.
 He is in love with Virginia Wander gri1f, the beautiful daughter of the most influential 'paciflst' of the coun- try, railsaad magnate, and attempts
