If any one can see disloyalty in that
sentiment or in those views, then l
can only say that his ideas of loyalty
differ from mine. To deny me the
right to express what I believe to be
the best course for our common coun-
try, is to deny to me the right Of free
speech, and the right to exercise my
judgment as free citizen. But l re-
fuse to be classed as disloyal because
1 have positive views on a su. ject so
vital to our common veal. l may be
wrong. I profess no superior wisdom,
but long, patient and careful study
tells me l am right. I am not dicta-
torial, nor egotistic, but 1 deny to any
one the right to question my loyalty
or to profess a greater loyalty to the
flag than mine. I know but one flag,
l have never known any other, and
hope ! never shall.
Your flag and my flag,
And how it flies today,
In your land and my land
And half world away!
Rose-red and blood ed
The stripes forever CLEAN;
white and soul white
The good forefathers' dream;
Sky-blue and true blue, with stars
to CLEAN Alright,
The gloried guidon of the day:
shelter through the night.
Your flag and my flag!
And, oh, how much it holds
Your land and my land
Secure within it's folds!
Your heart and my heart
Beat quicker at the sight:
Sun-kissed and wind tossed
Red and blue and white,
The one flag-the great flag--she
flag for me and you
Glorified all else beside--the red and
white and blue!"
Loyalty yours,

Fanny Ward Is particularly likable
in her latest Paramount film, "A
School for Husbands" which is now
being shown at the Isis theater. In
the first part of the film Miss Ward,
playing the part of the wife Of a
business man, dresses in simple colthes
in order to be economical and combs
her hair straight back, which makes
her look like an old-time school ma am
Later she runs her husband into bank
ruptcy when she becomes extravagant
in clothes and lavish house parties but
saves him with fortune which she
had inherited and which had been kept
a secret from him. Many little de-
lightful comedy touches are incorpor-
ated in the picture and the cast is ex-
cellently made up. Jack Dean plays
the part of tn husband and others
who appear are Mabel Van Buren, and
Frank Elliott.

WATERV|LLE TO HAVE
COLD STORAGE PLANT

From time to time in the past, Wa
terville has experienced thrills when
someone happened to mention that
plans We're then under way for the
building of a large cold storage plant
to serve Waterville and it's interests.
At last it would seem as though
something tangible might develop
from a meeting Of interested members
Of the Chamber of Commerce with the
Farmers Union headquarters on San
ger avenue, where considerable inter.
est was aroused by the assurance OF
the Farmers Union, that parties inter-
ested had made tentative plans for the
building Of a large cold storage plant
to serve Waterville and vicinity and
eventually the entire state to work In
connection with the Union.
1t is more than probable that a
joint meeting of the Farmers Union
and the Waterville Chamber Of Com
merce will be called within the next
month, where the entire proposition
will be laid before the members

of one-quarter cent a mile in the pas
senger fares, including mileage ticket

will become effective tomorrow, 1t was
announced tonight by the management
of the company. The new rate Is cl-2
cents a mile for mileage books and ap-
proximately 2 3-4 cents for tickets.
AS the increase was suspended until
December by the Puplic Utilities
Commission Of Maine for the purpose
OF investigating the reasonableness Of
the change, the new rates will not ap-
ply at present to trafhc originating
and terminating within this state.
Because Of this condition, two forms
OF mileage books will be issued one
good only within the state, at the pres
ent rate Of 21-4 cents and the other
for use between points in Maine and
other states and within New Hamp-
shire, Vermont and Canada for e1.a
