ANENT VACCINATION
Editor Picayune::

Editor Picayune:
 1 have heard a good deal said aboutithe law requiring school children to be yaccinated and condemning the legislature for passing such a law. Now, while 1 do not approve everything the legis lature did, yet the vaccina- tion regulation was not passed by the legislature at all; but is a regulation. made by the State Board of Health. The law crea- ting the State Board of Health was enacted in 1881, with its powers enlarged from time to time; but not by the last legisla- ture or the session of 1915. l am writing this simply to set the matter straight before the people as to where the responsi. bility for the vaccination law be. longs.
 Respectfully,
 J. o. A. Bush.

 Your Flag and My Flag

The banner breaks in glory the breeze,
 The trumpets sing from all their brazen throats chorused chant of thrilling harmonies
 The drumbeats throb amid the ringing notes An echo, but growing echo; yes,
 An echo that is flung from hill to plain, An echo that shall grow the less,
 Born from the chord that not struck in vain The diapason of the booming guns
 Blends with the shrler sounding o the cheers An this had been foreheard by those great ones Who planned the structure in the former years, Who dreamed and dared, and gave of wealth and life That this great naton-song should never cease, Who blent the surgng song of somber strife
 With all the after croons of honored peace! And today the southland and the north
 Clasp hands with their blood brohered east and west And in the mighty song their lips send forth
 The fulness of our faith is all expressed. And deeper than the very deepest chord
 Are the foundations laid in days agone When for hearth and home and manhood warred- The truths nation has been builded on. And higher than the farthest reach of song
 That quivers in the bosom of the sky There flames the flag of faith above the thIong- The flag whose plan and purpose cannot die The flag of promise floats from sea to sea-
 The bugles shout in answer to the drum And send of strength to you and me
 From days that were, and are. and are to come!

PATRIOTIC LOANS

The United States ha; loaned to other
nations engaged in war with Germany
something over three billion dollars, TAX
ing for the sums advanced the obligations
oe such nations, bearing the same interest
and maturing at the same time as the Lib
erty Loan Bonds.
The wisdom Of this policy is beyond
question. BY Strengthening these nations
and making them as powerful and as
effective as possible we are greatly aiding
III the shortening of the struggle; we are
doing much to insure an ultimate victory;
and only that which is Our duty to do
toward our allies in this tremendous war
against autocracy which would debase and
enslave all nations and men.
The fact that if we did not advance this
money much of the work which the allies
are doing would have to be done with
american money and American men estab-
fishes clearly the intelligence and wisdom
Of our policy.
There is work to be done which requires
the expenditure of blood and treasure. In
making these money advances in Great
Britain. France, Italy and other nations
we are lending money, which will be re-
turned to us instead of expanding sums as
81 eat, possibly greater, with no hope of re-
turn. In addition we are saving the lives
OF American soldiers.
No policy the American government has
pursued is wiser or more truly economical
and patriotic. &c.

NEW POWERFUL
MACHINE WEAPON

Hartford, Conn, Dec. 1.-"Well,

That is the chief topic of conversa-
ton these days in the big shops of
Hartford. New Haven and Bridgeport,
where the bulk of the rifles. pistols
and machine guns for. Uncle Sans
army is being turned out
For in these towns to say that
cold j. NJ. has done it again" is the
simplest and most direct way of stat
ing that John M. Browning has in
vented new kind of firearm.
This time, however, "Old j. NJ" has
done it twice. He has invented not
one, but two new guns. Both have
been accepted by the United States
government, contracts for immense
numbers of each have been sig2ed,
and work of production is being
pushed night and day. The new
weapons will be put into the fieln
against Germany at the earliest pos
sible day.
Who is John Browning? You never
heard of him?
Well, Browning is the father Of
rapid-fire and automatic firearms.
His is the brain behind practically
every basic small fire-arm invention
