YOUR FLAG AND MY FLAG.

(By Wilbur Nesbit.)
Your flag and my flag,
And how it flies today.
In your land and my land
And half a world awayl
Rose-red and blood-red
The stripes forever gleam;
Snow-white and soul-white--
The good forefathers' dream.
Sky-blue and true-blue with stars t

The gloried guidon of the day;

THE GARDEN THAT PAYS.

a Many a backyard garden is being started this spring that under nor nal circumstances would not be fin ished Enthusiasm starts many things in this world that only patient de- termination can finish
 Our backyard gardeners must not forget that we are living ill abnor- mai times. The backyard garden. lightly started, must not be lightly abandoned. It is vital factor in tn , winning of the war.
 The man who gardens this year must be more than a mere enthusiast, ., he is to all intents and purposes a soldier of our republic, doing his bit toward the fulfillment of national duty. There must be no shirking. The garden that pays-that garden that helps to win tho war-is thl garden that you sec right through to the finish.

PENSIONS FOR MINISTER'S.

Thc Episcopal church endowment fund represents definite practic Il step to encourage young men to en- ter the ministry. The campaign lasting fifteen months has resulted in raising $6,500,C0O. As a result, the $500 ministers of the church whose salaries, it is stated, average around $1,200 a year, will on retire ment or disability be entitled to pen sions of $500 year, and widows ot ministers will receive $30O a year. These minimum figures may increase according to service, age and other factors.
 Young men do not seek the minis try for purely monetary rewards :; but young men are often deterred from entering it by the fact that the rewards of an active ministerial ca reer are, compared with other pro fessions, pitifully sma..., while there is always confronting them the diff ficult problem of poverty in old age The ministerial pension is great step forward.

JEFFERSON'S PATRIOTISM
 PUT TO TEST.

It is generally urged as necessary for the good of the nation that the Liberty loan" bonds be oversub- scribed, and that the ponds be taken by the people. "A liberty bond in every home" will go fa' toward end- ing the war by convincing the Prus- sian government that the Americans are united and determined to wage sure the liberty of the warld, ana future freedom from menace of mili- taristic, ambitious, ruthless autoc- racy.
 The charge has been made that Pine Bluff and JeffersCn county are displaying less patriotism than other cities and counties. The charge is not justified. It may ba true that we are not waving quite as many flags as other communities, or that we are not talking quite so much. But ono recruit is worth more to the nation than half a hundred or more mere flag-wavers, and measured by this standard the record si.ows that Jef- ferson and Pine Bluff are doing theS'' part. Approximately 1G0 of our boys the flower of Jefferson youth-have enlisted for war service others have offered to go into the trenches, but were rejected-a fact that does not detract from the quality of their pa triotism and courage-and others are ready to go wher it becomes evident they are needed, and are not to be kept in camp for months and then sent home Jefferson's colored citizens have indicated they will do their part Some have enlisted, more will do so. and still others will be drafted. There is nothing to show any will seek to eva1e dischargins 3 the duty they owe the nation.
 Compare the record of Pine Bluff and Jefferson county with that of other cities and counties-especially of the East, where the most flags are fluttering ana where the most war talk is indulged in-and the charge of lack of patriotism falls flat. The young men of the com munity have vindicatel the city and county of any charge of want of pat riotism and courage.
 There is, however. duty which the stay-at-homes must perform. And unless this duty is promptly discharg- ed the delinquency may be interpret, ed as basis for the accusation that we are too complacent when the na ton is in danger. Aud that is tho duty to help finance the war of dc
