THE SERVICE FLAG

Dear little flag in the window there,
Hung with tear and a woman's prayer,
Child of Old Glory, born with star
Oh, what wonderful flag you are!
Blue is your star in it's field Of white,
Dipped in the red that was born Of white;
Born of the blood that our forbears shed
TO raise your mother flag, o'erhead
And now you've come, in this frenzied day,
TO speak from window-to speak and say:
81 am the voice Of a soldier son
Gone to be gone till the victorys wOn'
81 am the flag of The Service, sir;
The flag of his mother-I speak for her
Who stands by my window and waits and
fears,
But hides from the others her unwept tears.
F'I am the flag of the wives who wait
For the safe return of a martial mate,
A mate gone forth where the war god
thrives
To save from sacrifice other men's wives.
81 am the flag Of the sweethearts true
The often unthought of-the sisters-to.
| am the flag of the mothers son
And won't come down till the victory's
won.'
Dear little flag in the window there,
Hung with tear and womans prayer.
Child of Old Glory, born with a star
O, what wonderful flag you are!

BLESSING IN DISGUISE

Negroes in hte state Of New York have
met their Waterloo in the matter of civil
rights By recent decision of the Court
of Appeals handed down last week they
cannot demand service in a saloon in the
state unless the proprietor is willing to serve
them. Heretofore the proprietors worked
around serving them by greatly overcharg-
ing. The court held that saloon does not
come under the classification of "a place of
public accommodation. Such places the
court held, "of public accommodation"
under the law as leach of those utilities,
facilities and agencies created and operated
for the common advantage and benefit of
the people, This very special construction
may save the saloon against us, but what

CURRENT COMMENT

If the United States has more men in
France than the original schedule called for,
as declares Secretary Baker, why does he
conceal the facts and figures from the great
American public? The public does not want
the war department to cause to be printed
in the great daily and weekly press Of this
country the sailing Of every boat load Of
soldiers for France but once there it can see
no reasonable excuse for not acquainting it
of the fact through the press. So far as the
general public is aware of there may be a
hundred thousand Sammes in France or
there may not be to exceed five thousand.
"a still tongue may make wise head"
but "believe me-, still tongue does not
inspire men, women and children to enthuse
over foreign war; All Of us want to help,
Mr.. Secretary, but we want you to keep us
posted.
A publication entitled "Fire Facts came
under our observation one day this week
and after carefully perusing it we almost
smiled. Fire Facts seems to have two le-
gitimate excuses for it's existence, which
are as follows: fire prevention and fire in
surance. The most Of the 6x8 folio is fran

presto CHANGE"

"a colored physician, trained in a medi-
cal college, boarded a Pullman car in a
certain city near the Mason and Dixon line,
enroute to his home in Southern state"
writes I. Garland Penn, secretary Of the
Freedman's Aid Society, in the Baltimore
Commonwealth con entering the car he
was the object of conversation and ridicule
by few AnglO-SaXons from John G. Cal
houn's state, who were not accustomed to
riding with the Negro. Much was said by
the South Caroinians about the Negro for
his benefit, but the Negro was Of the sort to
grin and bear, trusting that the Lord would
take him through, as so often coored men
must do under similar circumstances. The
limited sped along at 5O-mile-an-hour clip,
when all at once, hundred miles down the
line, one of the South Carolinians took Sc
riOusly i'll with acute indigestion and the
conversation and ridicule of the Negro
ceased and turned to inquiry if physician
was aboard the train. When every white
passenger aboard had been questioned, the
South Carolinan reached the Negro and
blurted out, care you preacher or doc
tor?' The Negro answered politely, but as
suringly, 81 am a physician and surgeon'
''Well,' said the South Carolinian, 'help
this man.
The Negro physician said: "Gentlemen,
y
car put me in very embarrassing position
| have been anxious to serve your friend
but afraid to offer my services. 1t will please
me to do all | can.' The Negro physician
proceeded to relieve the sufferer. see that he
was taken to his berth and ministered to
during the night. "No charge,'' was the
reply made when money was offered the
physician remarking that in this case he was
the Samaritan The next morning the pa
tient was in good condition, barring weak
ness the party happy and the relieved one
thankful
The Negro physician, having been up dur
ing the night slept rather late the next
morning, but the party, even though speed
ing through North Carolina, wanted the Ne
gro physician to breakfast with them in the
dining car on the first call. The South
Carolinian went to his berth, got the doctor
up and took him into the diner and ate
with him. The doctor ate ''square meal
forty miles long, so he says, and never had
a better time in all his life Thus essen
tials to progress possessed and demonstrated
and waiting ones opportunity wins non
essentials Mans extrmeity is God s oppor-
tunity. ."-Exchange.

tically devoted to fire prevention remedies
and what's left tells why each and every one
should carry heavy fire insurance policy.
This pamphlet is published by the fire insur
ance agents and they devote all it's space to
telling how to prevent fires-not because
they give "a tinkers DAM how many fires
occur when they are not interested, but be-
cause it's dollars and cents in the pockets of
the stock holders Of these companies to pre-
vent fires Having been well coached as to
preventing fires you are encouraged to in

simply lucrative investment for the insur-
ance companies. In other words there is

And this short screed about the undue
interest the fire insurance companies take in
protecting the ''pepul'' is likened unto the
great interest the banks take in having the
''pepul" deposit their earnings in their saw
ings vaults. According to their version dire
calamity will overtake every one who does
not deposit their earnings with them and re-
ceive two per cent interest for your de-
posits which are loaned out at from eight
to one hundred per cent interest. We have
no objections however, to them making all
they can out Of the money, but we are
amused at the great fatherly love these
banks take in the lay ctizens-to get their
money for practically nothing that they may
loan it out at enormous profits. The Euro
pean, who said ''the citizens of the United
States are money mad" was far from be-
ing fool.

And now comes Representative John NJ
Baer with the startling statement that,
worldwide food famine confronts us. It
seems to us that many of the representatives
in Congress spend the greater part of their
time Matching up sensations to be handed
out to the great daily newsmongers, which
they print on their front pages under the
black scare heads that they may thereby
keep themselves in the public eye There
are fewer people to feed in the world by
quite few millions today than there were
three years ago and yet the farming is Just
as extensive as it was three years ago
Under the strain of war the food production
increased good many millions of dollars
worth last year over the previous year and,
we suspect, it will do the same thing this
year. The various families of course should
be encouraged to produce enough edibles
Tor home consumption even to those living
IN cities and towns but such scare crow
screeds seem nothing short of damphooldom.
In spite Of the fact he was only a gladi-
ator and won the most Of the fame he en-
!oyed while alive, which followed him to
his grave and will live after him, vet John
l.. Sullivan, who was buried last Tuesday
IN Boston, was one Of the remarkable men
OF the world. He was Uncle Sam s first re-
noWned gladiator and put the punch in
modern pugilism. He it was that restored
the lost art and strange to say, as popular
as 1t grew to be in the course of thirty
wears ne lived to see the art practically
lost for, be it remembered, when Jack John
son, for consideration, permitted Jess Will
ard to whip him in Havana, the world lost
interest in pugilism. John L. Sullivan
fought on the square and when he was
whipped he acknowledged the corn and
gracefully bowed his au revoir.

proved fatal to another employe at the
Morgan plant who was standing near
Reed when the explosion happened.

up a fuse cap and declared that 1t
would not explode, but the cap went
off In Reeds hand. injuring his hand
and causing several lacerations of the
arm.
The cap also wounded Schenck
slightly on both sides Of his skull and
injured him in the chest.
Both men, beyond the shock and ap-
parently minor wounds seemed all
right, and Schenck. who was q check
ing clerk, continued in his work and
checked two cars before he finished
his work for the day. He went home
and partook of his supper and then
went down in the business section OF

To OOFFER HIGHER
PR|CEFOR LAND
Board of Water Commission
ers May Purchase AIgair
Property at $3.50 an Acre

The real estate committee of the
Water Board, which Is composed OF
c. ID. Snedeker, chairman: Harry Con-
ard and Hugh Timmens, reported to
the water commissioners at a meeting
held at city hall last night that they
had taken a trip to South River this
week to confer with Joseps Algair. Jr.,
and his mother. Mrs. Mary Algair.
widow of the late Joseph Algair. Sr.,
regarding ten acres of land which the
board wants to buy.
The committee stated that they had
offered the Algairs $500 an acre. but
that they had refused. stating that
they would not accept less than t4O0
per acre.
The committee said that they had
gone into the matter carefully and that
Joseph Algair who acted as spokes-
man for his mother, stated that his
father. who Is now dead, held the land
at $500 per acre and would not sell for
a cent less, but that after talking the
matter over with the committee and
agreeing with them that the city could
have the land condemned and then get
1t at a much lower figure. he finally
consulted his mother and they agreed
that they would accept $500 per acre.
The committee stated that they had
been empowered to offer only $500. as
this was the sum paid for land nearby,
but the Algairs refused this The COM
missioners talked the matter over and
will go before the Board OF Aldermen
on Monday night and ask that they be
permitted to offer $3.50 per acre for
the land. for 1t is the general opinion
of all of the commissioners that the
Algairs will accept this.
President Landbeck told Of an in
spection he had made of the pumping
OF q ~ 90 ha q
surprised at the great amount of water
there at this time. The flow of weter
Is greater than ever In the history Of
the water department and as the pond
and wells are overlooking and no mat
ter how hard the water freezes this
season there will be no danger Of the
city being without water. A great deal
of credit Is due to Superintendent Sam
uel Mason, said Mr.. Landbeck, for the
dam he has constructed and for the
wonderful work he has done at Run
yon.
Improvements have been made to
the engines and pumps and President
Landbeck said that he had ordered
two pump plungers at cost of $3.50
each as this was a bargain, as the or
iginal cost of these was $1,000 each.
Superintendent Mason said that the
bond issue recently granted to the
Water Board of 100000 would not be
enough. as the work would amount to
about $4,000 and as a result the COM
missioners will have to ask the Board
of Aldermen to allow an additional
$4,000 bond issue. The clerk was in
structed to ask the city treasurer how
soon the 100000 would be available,
as the board has many bills to meet
and no money to meet them with. The
board ordered the issuance Sof war
rants for the employees of the depart
ment which are due at the end of the
month. for Christmas.
The board adjourned to meet again
on Monday night at s o'clock.

two men. Friends of the two are
working to bring about their appoint
ment
