that local business and business men-which
compositey is the municipality such
conveniences as will invite the trade and send it
away entirely satisfied.
Economically the city might well move to the
establishment of such convenience, it seems
to u.s. We have frequently heard people from
the county express dissatisfaction with the ten
dency to push their vehicles off the street. We
would not hold any brief for the desire to hitch
on Queen Street for any length of time, but for
brief period, while shopping-and this, we
are informed, the point which the author
CT the communication had in mind-we believe
there is no more reason for driving the vehicles
off the street than in driving the automobiles
off. We are certain that the establishment of
municipal hitching yard in the central part
Of the town would find favor with country folk
and would react favorably in a business way to
the merchants of the city,

PUBLIC OPINION
As Told in Communications
to the Editor.
FOR COUNTRY CUSTOMERS.

To the Editor of THE WORLD:
WIFI the business men of Martins
burg sit idly by and permit our city
authorities to drive THE country PEG.
PIE from our city? This is what our
city authorities are doing when they
drive our country people with horses
and buggies off of our streets We do
not give our country people a hitching
yard as Winchester and other towns
do.
One reason why so many of our
country people deal at the country
stores and buy from mail order houses
is that Martinsburg doesn't give them
any accommodation. The Evening
Journal is devoting a lot of space to
roasting the people for ordering heir
supplies from mail order houses. The
country people are driven to this by
our city authorities driving the coun-
~ people with horses and buggies
rom the streets. If they are not to
be allowed to hitch on the streets,
some provision ought to be made
they can do their shopping
in town and feel that their horses
and buggies are safe

luxuRlEs IA IA WARTIME.

1t is doubtless the fear of injuring
respectable business that has pre-
vented agitation in favor of taxing
luxuries. But if we relate the prob
lem solely to the question of victory
our decision can not be in doubt
The production of Injuries requires
skilled workmanship which could bet
ter be employed in manufacturing ar
ticles of military value On the
o.her hand, these Injuries absorb
earnings that ought to be devoted to
subscriptions for the Red Cross, for
War Savings Stamps, or for Liberty
loans.
France and Great Britain are insti-
tuting taxes on Injuries. The Unit
ed Stafes is about to prepare a rev.
enue measure designed to produce
some $S,000,000, 200. Is there any
reason why the persons who can still
afford to purchase luxuries should
not bear a considerable share of this
burden? We do not believe it would
be wise for the government to pro-
hibit altogether the manufacture of
so-called non-essentials; none Of the
belligerent countries have thus far ia
ken so radical a step; but common
sense would suggest that the pur-
chase of luxuries should be discour-
aged rather than otherwise
If we consider the case of the man.
ufactures, it is clear that the pro-
gress of the war must inevitably re-
strict their output. They will have to
make good the resulting loss in pro-
fit by charging more for their pro-
ducts. And it is certain that the per-
sons who are able to pay the advanc-
ed price will likewise be able to pay
the extra tax
Professor Sprague, of Harvard, a
leading economist, has submitted to
congress comprehensive program
for taxing Injuries. While there will
be obvious difficulties in determining
what are necessities and what are
not, nevertheless congress ought to
make beginning in this direction.
Prof Sprague's ideas seem, on the
whole, to be supported by common
sense and good udgment.-Chicago

FLAG ETIQUETTE.

Reacting to persistent requests for instru
ions, the National Committee of Patriotic S,
ieties, of Washington, recently prepared tn
Glowing well defined rules for paying respect
o the Flag The variety of Interpretation
which we have observed makes it seem advis.
lie to repeat them here:
When the colors are passing the specta-
tor, if a man, should halt if walking, arise
if sitting and uncover, holding the head
dress opposite the left shoulder with the
right hand; if bareheaded he should salute
with the right hand. A woman should
stand at attention as the flag passes by
When the flag is waving from station
airy flagstaff or pole it is not saluted with
the hand.
In decorating, the flag should never be
festooned or draped. Always hang flat. If
hung with stripes horizontal, Union should
be in upper left corner. If hung perpendi-
cularly, Union should be in upper right
corner.
When the flag is carried IN parade, or
when crossed with other flags, the Stars
and Stripes should always be at the right.
The law specifically forbids the use of and
representation of the flag in any manner
or in any connection with merchandise for
sale.
The flag should be raised at sunrise and
lowered at sunset. 1t should not be dis
played on stormy days or, except when
under fire of the enemy, left out over night
Although there is no authoritative ruling
which compels civilians to lower the flag at
shutdown, good taste should impe them to
follow the traditions of the Army and Navy
in this shutdown ceremonial. Primarily the
flag is raised to be seen, and secondarily
the flag is something to be guarded. trea-
sure, and so tradition holds it shall not be
nlenaced by the darkness To leave the
flag out at night unattended is proof Of
~shiftlessness, or at least carelessness.
On Memorial Day the flag should be dis
played at half-mhst from sunrise until
noon, and at the peak from noon until sun
set. 1t should on being retired, never be
allowed to touch the ground
When "The Star Spanged Banner" is
played or sung, uncover, stand and remain
standing, in silence until it is finished
Applause at the conclusion of "The Star
Spangled Banner" is not out of place.
Wornout and useless flags should be de-
stroyed by burning.
A flag torn or frayed by the wind and
weather should never again be hoisted I'M
til it has been repaired. This is a regula-
ton of both the Army and Navy and
should also be followed by all civilians.
