tertained last Saturday evening in
honor of Mrs. Rankin's birthday.
Owing to the bad evening quite a
few were deprived of the pleasure
of being present, however, the num-
Der exceeded AS. At 10: 80 the guests
were invited into the dining room,
where a most beautiful patriotic
scene awaited them. The table was
draped with patriotic crepe. paper,
Red, white and blue candles gave a
beautiful light on the scene. Ten
flags surrounded these candles and
a large Old Glory bell swung above
them. Strawberry cream and lady
fingers were served each guest, with
a tiny flag raised in each cream as a
souvenir. Miss Sarah Yeager was at
the piano and played america" and
each guest marched from the dining
room singing in low tone this beau
tiful and appropriate hymn. The ev-
ening was indeed delightful in this
home and each one was sorry when
the hour came to depart. Mrs. Ran
kin received a number of nice pres
ents. 1t is needless to say that Mr..
and Mrs. Rankin know how to. enter
tain and make each one feel at home,

OUR FLAG

What does it mean to you and me
To say this flag is ours?
Can we in truth say loyalty
Within our soul-realm towers
Above and ever doth dispel
That soectral tyrant-Fear?
And doth "The Emblem" e'er compel
The voice of God to hear?
Are we TO patriotism spurred
BY its empyrean pool
Wherein each stars a Golden Word
Within the Golden Rule?
And doth the seven bars of red
That "Magic number" mean
Completeness as when once it led
A unified Thirteen?
And doth each bar of white fulfil
Its mission in our heart?
To purify and their instill
The Citizens full part
To love-To act-To serve-To dare
To Fight-To Sacrifice?
With Freedom as the goal to share
And Peace the Eternal Prize?
