conductor and master mechanic. The
motive power was Of the best in those
days. and consisted of several yoke Of
oxen, commonly known as "hay-burn.

Mr.. Higginson ran his train on tri-
weekly schedule. When he had gath
cred up "cargo" and everything was
ready for the trip he loaded the oxen
into the first box car in the train. In
the next car he had put the freight and
the passengers, and In the third he
himself rode. The cars started down
the steep grade out Of Marshall and,
after they had rolled as far as they
would Mr.. Higginson set the brakes
and proceeded to unload the oxen and
hitch them to the coupling Of the car.
Then he released the brakes and start

the oxen were again loaded int their
car and another start was made down.

The passenger rate was 25 cents a

Higginson made money. All freight

OUR FLAG

Emblem of Liberty. with its crimson

ling stars,
There's no other flag that contains
in its folds
The hope for mankind that our sa.
cred flag holds. ,..-...
Shoulder to shoulder and shed their
own blood,
To throw off the yoke of oppression
and greed.
And sacrifice all in their country's
great need.
Carried in battles where brave men
fell,
Cheered in victory and defeat as
we'll,
Often shot down by the enemy's fire,
Just to be rescued and raised even
higher.
It's flying today with no stars OBJ
scured,
Speaking palmer than words what
brave men endured,
To keep it unsullied, when traitors h ad
tried
To trample it down and our country
divide.
When Cuba no longer was able to
stand,
The yoke of oppression and tyran.

In the wake Of Old Glory, the yoke so
long worn.
Was wrested away--a Republic was
born.
1t now has crossed safely, the death
lurking sea,
Over there it is flying to make the
world free,
With the flags OF our allies, it seems
that 1t must,
Will it fall? God forbid, when our
cause is so just.
The cablegrams frequently hasten to
tell,
OF brave boys courageously fighting
who fell,
And others will fall, but the war must
go on.
Till Democracy's cause shall safely
be won.
Yes, the old flag we love, for our boys
give their lives,
In defense Of its honor wherever It
flies,
Each shred of its tresses in our hearts
Wen entwine.
And our love will increase through
the ages OF time.
Hail the flag of our heroes, who left
US their glory,
Their deeds we will herald in both
song and story.
Let everyone hasten regardless OF
birth,
All honor to pay to the best flag on

TOMORROW NIGHT
"PASSERS BY" TO BE FEATURE AT
GUILD HALL ENTERTAINMENT
MUSIC, TOO

The play to be read by Mr. Bridge
tomorrow evening at the Guild hall, Is
"Passers By by C. Haddon Chambers.
This drama is as Enthusiastically Eng
lish as "Colonef Sellers" is American.
The slang Is English, the snobbery
English, and the characters, even in
the most intense moments, show self
control that we look for in our British
cousins. This restraint is the dom
inant note of the story, and Masks
would be appropriate for its title. An
emotional drama where the leading
characters try to conceal their feelings
rather than to parade them, can only
be written by an artist.
The program Of song offered at this
recital will be strong attraction for
all music lovers. Mrs. Liberty and
Miss McGinnis of the university will
be heard in the following:
la Less Than the Dust, Sindin.
(b) Morning, Obey Speaks.
