FLAG RAISING FEATURES
MORNING SERVICE At
CHURCH OF ST. THOMAS
Congregation AppIauds as Stars and
Stripes Raise Following the Mass
Neil M. Cronin Points Out Love Of
God and Of Country Are Inseparable.

The parishioners of the Church of
st. Thomas, all that could crowd into
the building for children's mass last
Sunday morning, showed by applause
an enthusiastic approval Of cere-
mony which formed part of the morn
ing program.
The ceremony took place outside
Immediately after the mass. The con-
gregation gathered around a tall flag
pole, raised in the church grounds,
the Rev. M. O'Brien and the altar
boys bearing the cross in the center.
While all stood at salute, little Mar
garet Bloom, 444S Zenith avenue
south, ran large flag to the top of
the pole. She made little speech,
too, in which she explained the pole
and the flag were the gift of the wom-
en- of the parish, in testimony of the
patriotism of it's members and their
devotion to their country.
Neil M. Cronin followed with an ad-
dress in which he said the ceremony
exemplified an abiding principle of
the Roman Catholic faith, that love of
God and love of country are INSOFAR
able. 1--WE have heard in recent days, "
he said, leading representatives of
the church in America speak noble
words as to the nations crisis and
the part that members of the Roman
Catholic faith will play in it. Cardinal
O'Connell's up from your knees!' call
to his people has thrilled all America.
The Most Reverend Archbishop of St.
Paul, himself Civil war veteran, has
spoken burning words of zeal and 10y
atty for our common country. We
have heard our beloved pastor, Father
O'Brien, again and again speak the
patriotism that actuates the true Ro-
man Catholic. And now we meet to
signify, in public way, to the unani-
nous love which the members of this
parish bear to their country and to
pledge it in this hour all the service,
of whatever kind, that is in their
power" ... ......
The gathering sang The Star Span
gled Banner before dispensing. The
flag will fly in the church yard until
the United States is again at peace
with all the world.

 The report of the Austrian general staff indicates that the Russians of fered no great resistance to the enry of the Austro- Hungarian troops, the larger part of the Slav armies having been withdrawn, leaving only strong rearguard, which fought stub bornly before retiring to the east ward of the city.

Along the northern section of the Galician line, the combined Austro- German armies are in con- stant touch with the enemy rear guards and slight engagements are frequent.
