Because style DEGREES that women

Is 1t Treason?
Star Spangled Banner"
Has Anti-British Verse.

DO yOt, consider the third verse
of The star Snangied Banner in
appropriate now"
That question was put to about
80 people yesterday. Not one OF
them had ever heard the third
verse OF the national anthem sung
or could guess what it said, but
~ said. indignantly:
Certainly it is not appropriate.
What are you talking abcut?''
Well. it seems that some one, in
n patriotic fervor not yet euualled
here, actually sang through the
third verse of THE Star Spanplcd
Banner" and discovered that re-
marks uncomplimentary to Great
Britain. one Of our allies. are made
In the verse. The anthem was
written by Francis Scott Key while
he was n prisoner on board a Brit
ish Warship. and love of the Eng
fish wits not one of the motives be-
hind the composition. The third
Verse is rs follows:
And where is that band who so
vauntingly swore,
Midst the havoc of war and the
battles confusion,
A home and a country they'd leave
us no more?
Their blood has washed out their
foul footsteps pollution;
No refuge could save the hireling
and slave
From the terror of flight or the
gloom of the grave,
And the Star Spangled Banner
in triumph shall wave
Ger the land of the free and the
home of the brave.
Some persons now want the third
verse omitted They are not en-
listing much support however, for
I" the third verse is seldom sung. In
deed, few unframed voices can
manage the song. And bands. upon
whom the nation chiefly relies for
renditions of the anthem, plav the
verse but once.
