SERVICE FLAG PRESENTED
TO CITY AT Big MEETING
CONTINUED from page II

Continued from page -
IL it is to be a Ipace where good will
Is promoted. where the strong sup
port the weak. and where all are
protected in life and liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness then this world
will be home to every right mind
ed man. On the contrary, If it is to
be a place where his satanic
majesty, the kaiser, is to be on the
throne, where the strong destroy the
weak. where the worst displace the
best, where the perpetrators of most
hideous and revolving crimes are re-
warded with medals, and where the
spirit Of hate Is cultivated as the
supreme grace. then this world will
be a HE'LL! These young men have
gone forth to help settle that ques-
ton for all time, and they intend to
see it settled right!
And now let me address myself
to the president Of the Fargo War
Organization. In behalf Of the two
mitted to. give-they have no desire
other than to be Of service-I have
the honor OF presenting to the Fargo
War Organization. through you, its
president, this beautiful service flag,
to be known as The City of Fargo
Service Flag. I charge you to see
that it is treasured with proper
care, and that when other young
men Of Fargo 20 forth to help rid
the world Of the Potsdam devils
other stars for these young men
shall be placed upon this flag. And
when the Fargo War Organization
shall have finished its work and dis
continued its existence this flag shall
become the property of the city Of
Fargo, to be guarded and kept as
a sacred memorial Of the part the
young men Of the fair city Of Fargo
had in making this world a fit place
to live in"
Lowell Makes Acceptance.
President Lowell. in brief address,
expressed the thanks of the Fargo
War organization for the service flag,
and he said the membership of that
body, an organization made up Of
men who are absolutely loyal, was
deeply appreciative Of the honor con-
ferred upon it, and the responsibility
the organization assumes.
Officers Get Splendid Ovation.
When Sergeant Boyle and Lieut.
Bryant were introduced, they were
given splendid ovations.
Sergeant Boyle, an exceptionally
strong speaker, brought to his audi
ence most forcefully the terrible dew
astation wrought by the Hun.
The fate Of one woman he pictured
in terms that brought shudders.
And She said the speaker, twas
just one OF thousands Of women and
children killed by the damnable
Hun.
