FIVE GOLD STARS.
On Service Flag Which Bonaccord Club
Unfurled.

A note of solemnity in the Bonaccord
service flag dedication at Clan Gordon
hall Saturday evening was hghtened by
the exhilirating news from the Franco
American and British fronts. While rev.
erently commemorating the five members
of the club who made the final sacrifice
over there, the crowd which assembled
for the ceremony could not restrain an
outburst of enthusiasm when Alderman
Duncan Mcmillan, in speaking briefly
at the close of the exercises, said that
the tide of battle on the western front
was turning, perhaps permanently, in
favor of the allies.
There are twenty-nine stars on the
banner which Mrs. Samuel Sargent un.
furled and there are five gold stars. Even
as the Bonaccord club contributed the
first Barre man to die in the great war,
undoubtedly it may also claim the hon
or of sending to the colors the largest
membership proportion Of any organiza-
tion in the city, if not in the state. Alex
ander Younie, one of the stafwarts of
the old Bonaccord soccer team, left Barre
in the late summer Of 1914, 1t was be-
fore the smoke of battle had lifted on
the German reverses along the Marine.
He went to Canada and enlisted. Short
ly he was on his way overseas, and a
few months later taps sounded for him
on a field in Flanders
In 1914 there were 80 members enrolled
in the Bonaccord football club; AT in
1916; Al in 1916; and 80 in 1917. To-
day the majority of the members are
bearing arms, in Scottish, English, Ca
madam and American units, These facts
were briefly mentioned by President Sar-
gent as he introduced Alderman MeMil-
Ian. The latter made a stirring pa
triotic speech in which he extolled the
memory of the men who are represented
by gold stars on the Bonaccord flag,
That their fellow club men who have
thus far survived the conflict are willing
to add their lives to the toll If 1t will
hasten the day of victory is evident by
the eagerness with which they have of.
fered their all for country and humanity.
The speaker was cheered to the echo.
Afterward the service banner, which
adorns the south wall of the hall, was
unfurled by Mrs. Samuel Sargent, wife
Of the club president. At the same mo-
ment Pipers Richie and Mcdonald, with
Miss Betty Stephen at the piano and
John Cooper playing the VIOLIN struck
into the strains of "The Star Spangled
Banner" Then followed the stirring
measure of the Scottish anthem, Scots
Wha Haze" One Of the most enjoyable
features of the evening was repertoire

Marrying Your Husbands Furniture.

The story, "All in the Family" in the
August Woman's Home Companion.
brings up the question, when YOU marry
a man, do you marry his famiiy's furni-
ture?R Here Is a description of some Of
the furniture:
The mansard sheltered the accumula-
tions Of two or more Garland households
.of mid. Victorian tastes. 1t was de.
bauch Of black walnut and haircloth in
twilight Of heavy lambrequins and large
figured wall paper Never in all nv %
years had beheld so many marble.top
tables gathered under a single roof.
There were three in the parlor alone.
One bore Rogers group Coming to
the Parson, it was called; another q
stereoscope with views of the Yosemite
and the centennial of 1875; the third
served as pedestal for case of pallid
wax flowers. On the walls hung oils
OF mountain scenery which it would fave
crazed a geologist to classify.
The sitting room across the wide hall
was even worse 1t was bullied by the
ugly bulk of secretary with vicious
rams heads carved on its lower doors.
Second In massive gloom was a black
marble mantelpiece crowned by black
marble clock with limping tick and
an asthmatie chime Tables filed the
spaces unclaimed by haircloth sofas and
chairs and whatnot--you will have
foreseen the whatnot-bestrode a corner

Prayer, and I did, poor maiden, neatly
done in the best female academy style.
There was also bronze plaque of

was appropriate 1t portrayed the youth

news that she was now queen Of Great
Britain defender Of the faith and high

our boys are, generally speaking well
taken care of-yictory is coming un-
der the splendid leadership of the
woodrow Wilson" and this is
no time to recognize and pay COM
pllments to our neighbors, but time
so momentous that no man, loving
his country more than himself, can
afford to bring discord and strife in
Iplace of cooperation and confidence.
We believe Judge Swiggart and
Mrs. Welch. We believe that some
young men are worth more to the
government in some other capacity
than as soldiers, We believe that
where a case of that sort is brought
to the notice of Senator Shields or
any Other member in Senate or Con-
gress, it is absolutely right to have
such men placed where their services
are worth most to the government
and regard the smallness of this
attack as an evidence of the fact
that Rye has no actual reason for his
campaign.
No smaller, more contemplate at
tack than the reference to the flag,
presented to the county by Senator
Shields could have been made. The
love and admiration, which the Sen
ator has always felt and manifested
for the confederate soldier, to whom
the flag was given is 100 well known
to need discussion. That flag, waiv-
ing over the building in Washington,
where Senator Shields has so faith
fully and actively discharged his du-
ties and cooperated with our Presi-
dent. stands for greater things, and
is altogether, especially at the pres
ent time, too dear to all true Ameri-
cans to have it attacked by evil mind
ed or jealous office seekers with the
idea of bribery.
The flag is appreciated and dear
to us, our boys are looking to it and
fighting for it, and as we see it I'M
frrled and it's stainless colors waited
TO the breeze, we think and pray for
our BOYS over there, not as officers
without any qualifications, except
that daddy happened to be governor,
but as sons of freemen, ready to
take upon themselves the lowliest
position, not to rule, but to serve hui
manity.
The last lines of the letter, stating
that Rye has treated all alike, should
in view of these facts, be amended,
reading: "Except-his own people
and some of his particular friends"

DIES AS FOE FLEEs
British Aviator Killed in Trianuu.
lar Fight.
Salvation Army Truck Driver Figures
In Tragic Air Battle at
the Front.

Paris.-Dying in the arms Of a Sal
walton Army supply truck driver at
the front in France, a British aviator
who had just been crashed to earth
in a desperate triangular battle in the
sky had the satisfaction Of Witness
ing the defeat of his German antag-
onist by French plane just before he
drew his last breath.
The struggle, according to report
reaching here occurred recently just
behind the allied lines in France and
was witnessed by Ransom Clifford,
eighteen-year-o son of Col Adam
Clifford, head of the Salvation Army for
New England, and residing in Boston.
Young Clifford was hauling supplies to
hutments along the line, when sudden
ly three big planes circled Immediately
over his head and opened up a terrific
fight.
In a short time one plane shot down
ward in flames and crashed to earth
less than 100 feet from Gifford's truck.
The young Salvationist ran to the
wreckage, and after desperate efforts
extricated the broken and pleading avi-
ator, who was still alive. Two French
soldiers, who had been concealed near
by ran up, and noting the condition Of
the aviator, raced of in different d.
rections for doctor and ambulance.
Young Clifford held the dying airman in
his arms, enabling him to lie back, and
with fast closing eyes gaze at the con-
fict still raging Immediately over their
heads. The French plane put the Ger
man to rout, whereupon the English
fighter with smile relaxed and ex-
pired in the arms Of the Salvationist.
Clifford states that for a month he
has not had his shoes of, and that this
Is no uncommon occurrence with the
supply drivers. He spent "a hours un-
der his truck on a subsequent trip
when 1t ran of the road into ditch,
with shells dropping around it all day
and half the night.
