THE SERVICE FLAG

(By William Herschell, the Indianapolis News) Dear little flag in the window there, Hung with tear and woman's prayer; Child of Old Glory, born with star Oh, what wonderful flag you are! Blue is your star in its field of white, Dipped in the red that was born of fight; Born of the blood that our forbears shed To raise your mother, the Flag, o'erhead. And you've come in this frenzied day To speak from a window-to speak and say I am the voice of a solder-son Gone to be gone till the victory's won. q am the flag of the Service, sir; The flag of his mother-I speak for her Who stands by my window and waits and fears. But hides from the others her unwept tears. q am the flag of the wives who wait For the safe return of martial mate mate gone forth where the war god thrlves To save from sacrifice other mems wives. q am the flag of the sweethearts true; The often unthought of-the sisters, too. I am the flag of moth CTS son And won't come down till the victory's WOn Dear little flag in the window there, Hung with tear and womans prayer; Child of Old Glory born with star Oh what a wonderful flag you are

PLAZA

The Plaza bill for the latter half of the week scored triumphantly at all three performances yesterday. Little cause for wonder with, the group of 1rawing cards listed on the programs.
 Johnny Ross and Ruth Howard, both of whom are popular young lo- cal people were featured in "The Sidewalk Cabaret which has just come East after a phenomenally suc- cessful tour of the West and middle western vaudeville circuits. Their work is happily a credit to them and to their home town. It proved that all our returning local rthespians are not in the amateur class as well as that Ross and Howard have "arrived' They are not only featured here, they are stars in the act and they deserve their laurels. Louise Dacre, a robust, fitian-haired character comedienne took care of the comedy end as we have seen no other female do in years. She has personality and her material is original, not cornered from a joke book. A group of clever and pretty young women complete the cast.
 It was good for the eyes to see such oId-tirne favorftes as Jones and Syl- vester whose connection with That Quartette" of by-gone days will never be entirely forgotten. They have a slEtt now and they have titled it 'The Actor and the Huckster" So much for the szit. It had a lot of laughs ln 1t but we were waiting to hear the pair sing. Sylvester sung a sisneeze" song, we we would call ii and the house went into mysteries ot laughter. Their duets were admirable

South, this time to the home of King Cotton Georgia.
 The plot of the play deals with the attempts of a young Northerner to regulate the child-labor system in the cotton mills of the south. His efforts are met with strong opposition by the mill owners, and how he wins over their prejudices, even standing trial for murder, eventually winning a Southern beauty for a wife, is told by the cast in a manner that is ap- pealing.
 The "kiddies' will receive another treat Saturday morning, when 8 choicely selected series of pictures will be shown for their amusement The list of pictures comprise both comedy and educational pictures and will prove of interest to both old and young.

Uncle Sam Planning Big for Mis-
souri's Big Fair.

Every day that passes adds some
new feature to the Patriotic Exhibits
kthat Uncle Sam is getting ready to
send to the Missouri State Fair
Sept. 22 to 2o. Not only is Uncle
Sam getting together the vast dis
play of things that will incite all
Missourians to greater love of
country and keener interest in the
welfare of the boys who have gone
from Missouri farms and shops and
homes, but England and France are
going to join in sending to Sedalia
this fall the greatest display of war
relics and materials ever gotten to-
gether. There will be guns from the
Somme, grim old veterans of the
great campaigns of that name. Eng
land will send relics from Flanders
and the Ypres. Canadians will send
relics that they have captured or
used on the salients they have at
tackled and taken. ..
But more realistic and more vivid
than these speechless yet eloquent
relics will be the acres of visualized
warfare, with their No Mans Land
lying between the trenches that will
shelter the dummy soldiers of oppos-
ing armies. Into these trenches will
crawl the tanks their machine guns
splitting fire as they brush aside the
yards of barbed wire entanglements.
As they move across No Mans land
the aeroplanes will rise from the
hangers back of the American
trenches and drop bombs on the dunn
my Teutons.
Back of the Sammies and their
trenches will be the Red Cross units
and ambulances and hospitals, and
still farther in the rear the war
kitchens and ration depots and rnuni-
ton depots and back of these the
heavy guns and the rest camps of the
Sammies. These scenes will depict
war as it is and bring to Missourians
as in no other way the sacrifice and
devotion that prompts Missouri's
fighting men and boys to follow
Black Jack Pershing against foe
that is ingenious and powerful.
Many hearts will be touched and
reached as never before by this pow
erful spectacle and pageant of death.
One OF the largest buildings in the
grounds will house the exhibits that
will not be used in the trench war
fare pageant in front of the huge
steel grand stand The Red Cross
display will carry the message of
tender sympathy for the wounded
and dying Missourians on a foreign
shore fighting the battles of the
cause of that liberty which is as
priceless to Missourians as to any
race or section of Americans,

WHISKY MAKING TO END
NIGHT OF SEPT. 9Th
All Processes Incident to Manufac-
ture of Liquor Will Cease in
United States.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 16.-All
processes incident to the manufacture
of whisky for beverage purposes
must cease in every quarter of the
United States at II O'Clock on the
night OF Saturday, September 8. Such
is the decree Of the Food Admins
tration.
This action by the Food Admins
tration was taken in accordance with
Section IS of the food control act,
which reads:
That from and after 80 days from
the date of the approval of this act
no foods, fruits, food materials or
feeds shall be used in the production
of distilled spirits for beverage pu:-
poses"
The act was approved August 10.
The 3o-day period named will expire
at midnight September 9. AS this
date falls on Sunday and as the in
ternal revenue laws prevent the op-
Grafton of distilleries after IL o'clock
at night on Saturday until the follow
ing Monday at a. m, it was ruled
by the Food Administration that the
provisions of Section IS will become
effective at II p. m. Saturday, Sep
tember 8.
The law contemplates that all
steps in the process of distillatlon
shall cease at the point of time in
dicated in the ruling, it was stated
by the Food Administration. So far
as the utilization of foods, fruits and
food materials or feeds for the pro-
duction OF distilled spirits for bever'
age purposes is concerned the act
should be construed as to inhibit the
initiation of any step, unless the en-
tire process may be fully completes
prior to III p. m. of September 8
