DR.. G. J.. Christensen at High
School Last Night Tells
What Old Glory Should
Mean to Us.
WE CAN ALL HELP FLAG
Rev. F. w. Long Sees Greater
Democracy as Result of
War-Community Sing
Is Great Success.

A plea for greater loyalty, fof
greater appreciation of Old Glory,
and all that it stands for, was voiced
last night by DR.. G. j. Christensen
at the community sing and Wash
ington day celebration at the Keokuk
high school. Dr. Christensen spoke
from the standpoint of one who
knows, since his parents came to this
country from Denmark, and he him
self fought for the flag in the Span
ish war.
Rev. Fred W. Long of the First
Congregational church, the other
speaker last evening, said that he be-
lieved were Washington living today,
he would be at the back OF President
Wilson in all of the measures he Is
urging, and that he was sure the prob
lens Of tomorrow were going to be
solved in the furnace 'tover there"
A chorus of four hundred school
children accompanied by the high
school orchestra, and directed by P
nc. Hayden, supervisor of music, in
the schools, furnished the songs, and
the audience joined in the singing.
Loyalty" and Three Cheers for
Uncle Sam" were the popular ones.
and of course the national anthem.
The assembly room OF the high
school was packed last night for the
sing, which is the first to be given
here. and which has been planned
for many weeks.
Do Not Appreciate Flag.
Many OF us do not appreciate just
what Old Glory means" DR.. Chrest-
ensen said. at means the opportun-
ity to live. to serve God as we choose,
and TO carve out our own destinies.
Until republicanism was born, people
could not say what they wanted to
do, but must do the bidding OF some
ruler The struggle today is TO de
eide whether the people have the
right, or whether some ruler who
claims to have divine right, shall
rule over them.
In my own case. the opportunities
that l have today were given me
through Old Glory. In the old coun-
try where my parents come from,
children go to school from six to four
teen. but after fourteen you usually
have to go to work. and the money
that you earn is hardly enough to
buy suit Of clothes with.
There are some people around us,
who would tear the flag down, and
yet they are living in the freedom and
the opportunity that its colors af-
ford. We are in this war today be-
cause Germany trampled on our
rights, and because of the murder
and death of hundreds of our men.
women and children. Now that we
are in this struggle, there should be
but one word, and that should be
loyalty. We must clear our hearts
Of any thought of rebellion towards
any act which our government asks
Of us to win this war. If they ask us
to eat war bread and to save sugar,
we must do it, and do all that they
ask. because we cannot live with a
nation that treats treaties as scraps
Of paper. Nations as well as people
must keep their word.
The ruthlessness of Germany is
