The Stars and Stripes Abroad.
(By Elizabeth Powers Merrill.

(By Elizabeth Powers Merrill)
The Flag of America flies today
Mid the nations beyond the seas
1t floats over the stately old world halls
And laughs in the spring time breeze.
1t floats from mansion and college and
church.
1t swings on the mast-heads high
1t CLEANS at the head of the royal troops
And trembles against the sky.
The Flag of America cheers the sight
OF those who have suffered and weep
1t has brought new cheer to the hearts
of those
1t blesses the eyes of the old and young,
Little children laugh in glee
Ana salute the glorious Stars and Stripes
Brought to Them from over the seal
The Flag of America stands today
For the Unity of Man
Not for hate Of Any nation or race
That have lived since the world began
But IT asks for chance chance for
ALI
To live and work for the best!
1t asks that all men in harmony dwell
All men on the earth's green breastl
Then hail. o Flag Of American birth,
Wherever you swing or fly!
You are the Flag Of all races Of men
For their welfare you live or die
Wherever you go, o Flag with the stars,
Let all souls draw strength from Thee
Thou radiant Flag of the U. S. A.,
Whose colors shall Guard the sea!

How a Dollar
Circulates
Spend dollar with your home merchant and you
will have an opportunity Of spending it again soon.
Spend dollar away from Mssoula and that dollar
is forever out Of circulation far Mssoula is con-
cerned.
Spend dollar in Missoula for shoes, the shoe man
spends it at the drug store the druggist spends it at
the grocery store the grocer spends at the dry goods
store the dry goods spends it with the butcher,
and the butcher owes you account and is now able
to pay you because you spent dollar in Missoula
You sold the butcher an insurance policy, or you
were his lawyer, or his DOCTOR carpenter or painter
That dollar bought seven dollars worth Of goods
while it was coming back to you Seven men besides
yourself made profit on that dollar.
This question Of ',BUYINC IN, MlsSOULA" is
much more than mere loyalty to home merchants-it
resolves itself into matter Of whether or not one will
reduce or increase their chances to accumulate money
or have less money or more money to spend.
Every dollar sent away from Missoula simply re-
duces the chances for profit for the who sent it
away
Looking at it from hard-headed, business view
point-it is good, common business sense to spend
your money where you have chance to get at least
part of it back.

have seen the box Of warm
wooden garments that left

alone comfort and warmth
for our boys in France, but
a loyal response to the urg-
ent and intelligent plea from
men who are at the front
and know what is needed. If
you had a pair Of socks, or
wristlets, a muffler or sweat
er or helmet in this ship
ment, be assured that you
will have the gratitude OF
some man who is fighting for
liberty.
Following is a report OF
what our box contained. 1t
is only a beginning, OF
course, but it is a glorious
start. And next week, Mon
day, the second box goes.
Bring in therefore, your fin
ished articles tonight or Sat
