A New Service FIao.

One of our jackies. Maurice Glenn
ent, the quartermaster on the U. 8. 8.
Texas, thinks that the conventional
service flag which is now flying from
immunerable windows all over the
country, has one defect. It does not
tell what branch Of the service each
man has entered.
Now Quartermaster Clement is ex-
tremely proud Of being in the navy,
30. when he came to make a service
flag for his own home, he framed the
central white space with. piece Of
white-line tied in attractive knots. At
the top and bottom Of the panel he
made double Carrick bend; at each
side, at equal intervals, a figure eight
knot, and then a square knot, thus
making a balanced design.
This flag is not only very attractive,
but it leaves absolutely no doubt as
to what branch of the service it SYM
bolizes.-Popular Science Monthly.

Washington.-The encounters Of
American merchant vessels with Ger
man submarines constitute one Of the
most thrilling chapters Of the war.
When the president ordered our mer-
chantmen armed for protection against
undersea attack the navy was called
upon to furnish hundreds Of guns and
thousands Of trained gunners to man
them. To perform this task a new
branch of the service was organized

country declared war they were on ac-
tive duty, and the first man Of the
navy to lose his life in service against
the enemy was member Of the armed
guards, John I. Eopolucci. lost in the
sinking of the Aztec April l, 1917

II farmers are paid more for Hive

approximately 90 per cent of the price

The remaining 10 per cent pays for
dressing. freight to market, operation
