FLAG FOR THE PUBLIC SQUARE

To the citizens of Green Forest: This nation, so long at peace with all the world, is today upon the verge of war; in fact state of war now ex- ists, and an army is now being recruit ed for the purpose of entering into the greatest and bloodiest war in the his tory of the world. Some of our boys have enlisted, others will enlist and the laggard and unpatriotic will be reached by conscription.
 During the many years of peace, plenty and prosperity, enjoyed by the people of this nation, we have almost forgotten our flag and the great prini- pies for which it stands.
 1 have therefore thought it fitting and appropriate:that suitable flag pole be erected in our Public Square, and that our flag, the emblem of freedom, be tloated from it every day this sum- mer, and have accordingly ordered a 100-foot flag pole, believing the people of Green Forest will gladly pay the ex- pense of the same by popular subscrip- tion. When tbis is received it will be raised with appropriate ceremonies.
 l call upon the citizens of Green For est to show your loyalty and patriotism by contributing such sums as you feel warranted in giving. Step into the First National Bank or the Farmers & Merchants Bank and leave your sub scription. We will need the money in few days. This request is to all. men. women and the children.
 Remember we are about to enter great conflict; the duration of which none can tell, conflict which the boy in knee pants today is as liable as a bearded man not to see finished. We should talk nothing but loyalty and patriotism, and endeavor in every way to instill this in the mind and education of the youth, who will doubtless take part in this great conflict. Nothing will inspire our boys to deeds of hero ism more than the sight of Old Glory, and with the flag floating above us morning, noon and night, will be an education in itself. Let us be liberal in this giving and with our gift pray the God of Battles to watch over and protect our brave boys who are risk ing their lives in answer to the call of Duty.
