WOULD PREVENT THE
FLAG DESIGNATING

Jackson, Miss, March Ex-senator
Williams, of the twelfth district, has
introduced in the state Senate a bill
TO prevent the dissertation of the Unit
ed States or Mississippi flag. and says
that he is sure it will pass the upper
body of the legislature.
The bill is similar to the laws of
this nature in 3S states in the Union.
Only few weeks ago The South Caro-
lima lawmaking body passed such a
measure.
The introduction of the bill was re-
quested by ladies of the Daughters of
the American Revolution. of which
Mrs. Carl j. Won Seutter, of Jackson,
is state chairman of the committee
to prevent Dissertation of the Stars
and Stripes. She has taken a great
deal of interest along with other
ladies, in having the bill prepared and
offered in the legislature.
The measure would prohibit the
use Of the flag, or any picture of it,
for advertising purposes, making it
misdemeanor to print or paint any adj
vertising matter, to be exposed to
public view, on any such flag, color,
standard or ensign"
The ladies, in furtheriag arguments
for the passage Of the act. refer to
Mexico as having a national law
against flag conservation In that
country paper napkins with the ma
tiOnal cOlors or national flag thereon
are barred, and children are taught to
reverence the emblem. The children
OF that land would not think, for in
stance, of using a flag or a representa-
ton of their flag, as a table cloth, and
it is never used in any but reveren-
tial manner.

ars. The committee listed Troy, n.
~, New Work City, Passaic. n j., and
the city of Gary itself, and found
many points in the Gary systtm that
are highly endorsed by the committee.
However, the Minneapolis educators
reach this conclusion; The double
use of the school plant can only be
effected at a loss in educational eff
ciency-a distinct loss to the child
taught by overworked teachers and in
lack of aim and direction in their
work. We believe that many of the
best ideas Of the Gary plan are now
in use in Minneapolis. We believe in
greater freedom and spontaneity on
the part of pupils, but are convinced
that these unrestrained will lead to
lessened respect for law and the de-
yelopment Of those personal qualities
which do not make for thOughtful-
ness, order and good citizenship"

We must always consider that internal
sanitation is vastly more important

do.

ribbons hanging from the front of it. !

her house" said the queen. Take !
hold of the ribbons all of you, and it |!

When the fairies brought the baby !
into the house the queen said: 1.-THE |

of Violet, as we found her among
them?"
oh that is a beautiful name dear
