THE CITY OF FLAGS.

According to railroad men and
strangers visiting the town, this
city can well be named the city of
flags, as it is reported we have
more flags flying than any other
city OF like size in the state.
Hardly a business house or home
but have the Stars and Stripes
prominently displayed and many
have more than one. Any bust
ness house or home not display
ing the colors should be ashamed
of the fact and remedy it at once.
Now is the time. to show your true
colors and the only true colors
just now are the Red White and
Blue.
