The Temple at Nikko.
BY NIKS sab

What St Peters is to Rome, what
Westminster Abbey is to London. what
the Pantheon was to Athens, that is
the temple at Nikko to Japan today.
1t is the richest and most perfect ex-
preston of the art of whole nation
in so far as that art can be gathered
into a single building. The Japanese
| have been called a nation of artists.
and in their great temple they have
gone far toward justifying the term.
The temple was built centuries ago
as setting for the tomb of the Sho-
gun Iyeyasu, perhaps the greatest
ruler Japan has ever known. 1t is
the work of forty years. of unnum-
bered scores of patient and nameless
artists, of unnumbered thousands OF
forgotten workmen. a work that re-
garded neither time nor effort nor
cost.
The avenue of stately pines that
! leads to the temple is twenty miles
! long. Before the building rushes a
boiling river, spanned by two bridges
red and green. The red bridge is for
the Mikado, the green bridge for com
mon humanity, but the red of the
sacred bridge is the exact tint to sci
off the green of the pines, the gray OF
/ the water and the brown of the Hills
1t may not be trodden. but its color
is there to complete the picture fol

| The first gate is guarded by two
carven lions, and here you meet fol
! the first time the patient perfection
of carving that distinguishes every
/ scrap of cut stone in this wilderness OF
/ chiseled granite. Japanese carvings
are wonderful things in their sweep OF
J line and their beauty of detail, and

gilded temple, but withdrawn among
the quiet pines, in smooth casket o
bronze walled in with uncarven stone
lie the ashes of Iyeyasu.

When the liberty loan has been sub

lea is ships. Not only are they need
ed for the purpose of compromising
losses thru German divers, but they
are needed to bring food and other
necessaries to our shores. from South
America. Given adequate transport
tation facilities we can double the
meat supply in this country and bring
in million hides a year from Brazil
alone. Here is afforded an oppor-
tunity for team work between General
Cocktails and Mr.. Hoover. That both
of these gentlemen are fully alive to
the exigencies and the opportunities
of the situation there can be no doubt.
We need ships to bring foods and raw

THE AMERICAS FLAG.

When Freedom from her mountain height
: Unfurrd her standard to the air,
She tore the azure robe of night,
And set the stars of glory there.
She mingled with its gorgeous dyes
The milky baldric of the skies.
And striped its pure celestial white
With streakings of the morning light;
Then from his mansion in the sun
And gave into his mighty hand
The symbol of her chosen land.
Majestic monarch of the cloud
Who rear'st aloft thy regal form,
To hear the -trumpings loud.
When strive the warriors of the storm,
And rolls the thunder drum of heaven
Child of the sun I. to thee it's given
To guard the banner Of the free,
To hover in the sulphur-smoke.
To ward away the battle-stroke,
And bid its blendings shine afar,
Like rainbows on the cloud OF war,
The harbingers Of victory!
Flag of the seas. on ocean wave
Thy stars shall glitter DER the brave;
When death, careering on the gale.
Sweeps darkly round the bellied sail.
And fr!ghted waves rush wildly back
Before the broadside's reeling rack.
Each dying wanderer of the sea
Shall look at once to heaven and thee,
And smile to see thy splendors fly
In triumph DER his closing eye.
Flag of the free hearts hope and home!
BY angel hands to va1or given;
Thy stars have lit the welkin dome.
And all thy hues were born in heaven.
Forever float that standard sheet,
Where breathes the foe but falls before
us,
! With freedoms soil breath our feet.
And freedoms banner streaming Ger me
