AMERICAN LEGIONERS CARRIED
FLAG IN SECRET TO WAR

Few people know that in the famous
American Legion of the Canadian
Army every man carried an American
flag over his heart. When an American
eager to enter the big fight for liberty,
went UP to Canada to enlist he was
sworn in as a Canadian soldier and
then his commanding officer presented
him with a small American flag
which was pinned inside his tunic.
I'll carry this to Berlin or bust
was what many man said
This in fact became the slogan of
the famous 97th Battalion, around

sponsored by FIT. Early Chapter D. A.
R. Those who see the film will have
portrayed for them the romance of a
young American who enlisted in the
Canadian Army, won his commission
and also the love of beautiful Cana
dian girl before going overseas. Their
adventures, their wonderful love and
their even more wonderful sacrifice
form the basis for war story more
thrilling than anything which has
yet been done
Made with the cooperation of both
the Canadian Government and the
United States military authorities,
the film has in it many thousands of
regular soldiers and series of battle
scenes which in their realism have
never been surpassed The story was
written by Captain Edwin Bower
Hesser of the American Legion.

Rattania Fibre Rugs

These are the herringbone woven rugs that
are SO liked because this weave makes them
so heavy and firm and smooth, it eliminates
all warp, and the rugs never curl up at the
corners and edge, but lie smoothly on the
floor. For popular-priced floor covering,
suitable for all parts of the house, there is
nothing better than the Rattania Fibre Rugs
and now that their coloringS are so very beau
tiful and the designs actually copy the Period
designs they will be more than ever in demand
Just now the Chinese influence has affected
the pattern on many of the rugs, with most
artistic results There is very large aSsort-
ment of sizes, and color effects TO match anv
color scheme. All sizes are shown in both
plain and figured rugs.
