FLAGDAY
SERVICESBEFORE LARGE AUDIENCE

of Greece has been abdicated, and
probably already that country Is on
its way to join the sisterhood Of re-
publics.
What is our duty today? This war
is no mere pastime. It Is the most
gigantic struggle the world has ever
seen.
What does the flag mean to you"
You have heard the significance o:
its colors explained here. Is it mere
ly a matter of protection to you? Or
is it an emblem that demands your
devotion and solicits your strength
and courage. Every man and woman
owing allegiance to that flag has
duty to perform. and il We do not re
spond to that duty We are as much
of a Stacker. as the man who runs
away to avoid enlistment.
1T mean mean stricter economy.
Perhaps II will mean doing q bit to
assist the Red Cross and similar char.
tiles. Perhaps II will mean the use OF
money, the purchase Of a Liberty
Bond. Perhaps it will mean service
at the front that will call for LIES
blood.
The Flag at a time like this needs
our life's all. II We have this spirit
We can proudly and honestly say Our
Flag II we lack 1t, then We must
get right with our Flag.
do you remember, when the Revo'
luton came apaee, of the spirit OF
Paul Revere and Israel Putnam? Do
you remember the example set by
Nathan Hale who, when he was about
to be hung as a spy, said I only re-
gret that l have but one life to give
for my country? Do You remember
Molly Pitcher who, on that hot July
day, carried water to quench the
thirst of the men at the cannon and
who, on one trip, found her husband
dead, and who helped to remove her
husbands body and then took his
place at the gun!
ut Ii these examples that demand
our attention at this time. President
Wilson said This Is the time for
Americans to show that Democracy
like our own is efficient in a trial Of
this kind.i
"The flag Is not only'the emblem Of
truth and virtue, but stands as well
for devotion, courage and loyalty.
What are we going to be in our sew
eral stations? Allies Of the enemy by
failing In our duty or stand with our
country for the triumph Of human
rights?
We must stand by our country so
that when the war is ended Old Glory,
unstained today, will come out still
nntarnished and with added luster,
having been the true friend 81 man
kind in establishing reign Of free
dom and equality"

TRENTON, Sept. s.-Joseoh - Bodlne,

soldier is in uniform until he is dis
charged, even though he may have pa
jamas on. The opinion was called
forth by a request OF City Commits
sion LaBarre, director OF public
safety.
A number OF soldiers were staying
at a Trenton hotel, and when the man.
aRement refused to sell them liquor
while in uniform, they went to their
rooms and appeared later in paJamas
and requested food and drink. The
management again refused, and the
military men called attention to the
law, which states that they shall not
be served while in uniform" The
hotel people. nevertheless, refused to
serve the men, and the matter was re-
ported to City Commissioner LaBarre,
who asked for the formal opinion.

MRS. DULL'SFIANCE
LUREDBY SLAYERS,
IS POLICE THEORY

BOSTON. Mass, Sept. s.-opinion
gathered force today that Harold A.
whitman was murdered by some per
SON or persons who Iured him into q
trap and then struck him down from
behind without warning.
The young Melrose chemist. who
was found dying from fractures Of
the skull on the dump in SomerVills
last Sunday morning, bore no marks
beyond the fractures at the top and
base Of the skull. The absence Of
other marks on the bo1y and the fact
that whitman's clothing was not
torn or severely disarranged, indi-
Gates that there was no death grapplo
or struggle with one or more asail-
ants.
Apparently there were two blows
from behind. one on top of the head.
the other at the base OF the skull
Severe as these blows were, neither
one was sufficient to cause instant
death. How long Whitman lived
after receiving the blows Is so far q
matter OF conjecture
1t has been generally assumed, and
this assumption still holds good. that
the man was attacked first and taken
to the dump later.
Assistant District Attorney George
& Harvey, OF Middlesex county. says
that some of the early theories in the
case have been abandoned and that
new conclusions are shaping.
