L. M. Price. owner and proprietor
of the we'll known fertilizer business
of Smyrna, has given his son, Warner
w. Price, an interest in the business,
the firm to trade as L. Nj. Price & Son.
The relation begins March 1st. With
the business strengthened by the unit
ing of forces, Prices well known
brands of fertilizers have bright out
look. The firm is not only preparing
to sell fertilizers and put up more
goods, but they have completed plans
to better the transportation facilities
and established quicker system of
delivering from factory to farm by
way of auto trucks. Besides the truck
they already have, they have on the
way to Smyrna another big White
truck which will be put in service fol-
the spring and summer trade. In
thus avoiding the uncertain railroad
delays. they are giving the farmers
service that will mean much to them.
TIE new firm has the good will ant
best wishes of large clientele. Th'
entrance of Warner w. Price into th'
firm does not affect his coal business
which will still be run under his owl
name

THE FABRIC OF OUR FLAGS
Adapted isFss from poem BY william Ladlunn. Jr,.
The fabric of our flags was spun
From more than simple thread.
Il was woven from the hearts and
hopes
Of our heroic dead;
The blue field proves their constancv
The red their sacrifice,
The white the Faith for which they
died,
And nobly paid the price.
The stars were plucked from
Heavens vault
And stitched upon the blue
AS shining lamps of Liberty
To light the whole world through.
God blessed the shuttle as it sped
To warp and wool entwine,
And Love, by def and tender touch.
Completed the design.
IT was Freedom snatched them from
the loom
For Liberty TO bear,
AS banner, pledge and star of Hope
To mankind - everywhere.
All that we are, or hope to be
Is woven in their folds;
The glory of our Nation stands
A Nation we uphold.
The fabric of our flags was spun
By those who lived and died
That we might have that liberty
For which they Fate defied;
And we, If of their breed and blood,
Must strive with every breath,
For those that follow after us,
Yea, even unto death!
