restrained wrath of the senate was

Back east in some backwoods COM
munity un ordinance has been passed
prohibiting the ladies from wearing
Ameri IN flags embroidered upon
their stockings. All sorts OF Jokes
might be suggested about this rather
silly piece OF legislation, but we only
rise to remark that from reading OF
the ordinance no provision was made
for finding out whether the ladies'
wore such decorations OF not, and that
again suggests the idea that perhaps
no such clause is needed: It certainly
wouldn't be in Elko today. Plenty OF
