Flar-Raising.

At $50 Sunday afternoon about
1000 people gathered at the front of
st. Mary's Catholic church to wit
ness the raising of large u. S. flag
and the very impressive ceremonies
appertaining thereto.
Space will not permit US to give all
the details. The flag was borne by
girls dressed in the flags of the Al
lied nations, supported by the paro-
chial school children, who sang very
sweetly the Marsellaise Hymn in
French.
Oscar Proulx presided and in his
remarks announced the Society st.
Jean de Baptiste were glad on this
anniversary to raise the national en-
blem, which was loved by all, with
the hope that it might wave forever.
Rev. j. M. H. Bastien delivered a

General Ben Butler, of Civil war
fame, was there making a speech one

for some reason, arranged to march
out during his talk at q prearranged
signal in an effort to disconcert him.
Accordingly, when the call came the
whole class arose and began to march
out, keeping time IN noisy tramping.
The faculty was aghast. Butler was
equal to the occasion, however. He
stopped talking, watched them and
then remarked calmly TO the audience:

WHAT NEW FACTORIES MEAN.


With resources in its banks of upwards
Of s2s, 900 900, according to their last annual
reports. this city has a population of TO-
4S6. It is fair to say that the six local
institutions are in part industries, some
of them doing business in several States.
and among the best managed industries Of
Vermont. They give employment to
considerable number Of persons among
them. Yet even they, like the citys
stores, transportation facilities, and what
not, are batteners upon the farms. the
factories and the forwarding concerns.
among which the big wholesale lumber
firms may be included.
Burlington is more than a municipality
II is the metropolis Of one of the richest
commemorative. territory considered. Of
the Union. 1t is the seat of the States
university. But its population and pros
perity must always rest to big extent
upon the degree to which 1t produces.
manufactures or distributes useful COM
nodities.
This Is no time for self-congratulatton.
One factory doesn't make an industrial
center, such as this city with its capital,
situation and railroad facilities should be.
Much less is it enough that several of the
principal factories here have enlarged
their buildings during the past year. and
are crying for labor.
Burlington will never possess the popu-
lation it should have, and all that large
population means for the general prosper
ity, until it has utilized the hundreds of
fine factory sites which line the lake.

PEACE.

But, to speak plainly. peace is not in
itself human ideal. AS long as 1t leaves
unsolved the problems of justice it is not
even desirable aspiration. 1t may even
be repugnant to the moral sentiments of
an enlightened conscience. 1t is to be de-
sired only when II is the concomitant of
realized social good, for 1t is in no sense
an end In itself. But the word is not to be
set aside as representing a mere negation,
as II 1t were simply the absence Of strife.
Peace on earth would mean the liberation
OF human faculties for the highest and
noblest achievements VI which human
nature Is capable. 1t would mean a
splendid effiorescence of art. literature.
science, philosophy and religion. in short.
culture In its best sense. as the sponta-
neous unfolding of the powers of person.
