FLAG OF VENICE HAS PLACE OF
HONOR TN AMERICAN CONSUL.
ATE
(By Associated Press.)

Venice, June 49, The silken stand
ard Of the proud old republic Of Ven
ice, known as the Gonfalon of San
Marco, now has a place of honor in
the American consulate at Venice, and
upon American Consul B. Harvey
Carroll, Jr, has been conferred the
distinction of being Gonfalonier OF
San Marco or standard bearer of the
Venetian flag
It is the first time in the history OF
Venice that such distinction has
been given to any foreigner, and 1t
reflects the feeling of the city toward
the American representative for the
attention he has given their interests
during the trials Of the last six
months with the enemy on the Piave
only fifteen miles east of Venice.
Throughout the political changes Of
Venice, the city has preserved the
emblems which marked its greatest
glory, when as the Venetian Republic
she was mistress of the Adriatic and
the eastern Mediterranean and was
strong enough to defeat the Turks and
conquer Constantinople. The winged
/ lions of St. Mark are the most famil-
lar emblem, and they are not only
seen in Venice and all the surround
ing cities of the Venetian province.
but in Corfu and all along the coast
of PaImatia and Croatia.
Another of these emblems is q
Doge's ring, conferred in the old days
on Venice as a symbol of the suzer-
ainity OF the Oceans Queen over
the sea. But the proudest relic of the
PAST is the Gonfalon of San Marco, or
standard of the famous old republic.
/ It is one of the possessions of the city
and the municipal council guards its
use and designates the few who are
privileged to carry 1t, the designation
carrying with 1t the title of Gonfal-
'onier of San Marco.
It was a notable ceremony at the
city council chamber when the rank
OF standard bearer of the Venetian
fag was conferred on Consul Carroll,
more as an evidence of personal es-
teen than in his ofAcial capacity Z.
With the mayor and councillors of
Venice were the Admiral of the port
and the high officers of the armv and
,navy. Addresses were exchanged and
toasts drunk. expressing the feeling
toward the consul and the cordial re-
lations existing between Italy and the
United States
Following this "a delegation of the
city fathers proceeded to the Ameri-
can consulate. bearing one of the sill
ken gonfalons of San Marco, and
gave it into the hands of the new
standard-bearer. The standard is OF
heavy silk richly edged with gold
fringe with the gilded staff tipped by
the lions of San Marco.

PLANNING YOUR CANNING

Now that the spring vegetable sea-
son is almost here it is time that
plans be made for canning the sur
plus fresh products which usually
flood the market at this time so that
next winter will not find the family
cupboard bare of those edibles which
could have profitably been put up" in
the summer.
Many have their war gardens.
These will produce more than can
possibly be used on the table while it
is fresh. One thing remains can
the surplus instead of throwing it
away or letting it become too tough
for use in the garden. Those who have
no gardens of their own should buy
of their neighbOrs, their farmer
friends or their grocer those products
which can best be canned for home
consumption.
The boys in France and our Allies
will need much food in the coming
months. We at home can help them
get that food by eating and canning for
future eating those products which
cannot be successfully sent for long
distances.
A clever advertiser has coined the
slogan Eat without a guilty con-
science" Those who eat fresh products
will need have no fear of feeling that
they are depriying the fighting men
of something they could use.

FOR GOOD ROADS IN COOPER
Bond Issue Carried By Big Ma
jOrity.

The following article on the re-
cent road election in Cooper County
is taken from the Central Missouri
Republican, Boonville:
What leading business men OF
Boonville and farmers of Boonville
and other townships say is the great
est forward step taken by this COM
munity for years, was made Tuesday
when 100000 worth of bonds were
voted for hard-surfacing twenty miles
of roads in this township. The issue
carried 799 to 100, ratio of practical
ly s to l.
The victory came after weeks of
hard, driving work by the supporters
of the proposition, the farmers, busi-
ness men, civic organizations and the
Copper County Permanent Roads As
sociation. The election was extensive
ly advertised and a vigorous cam
paign carried on ending in the over
whelming vote Tuesday.
by IL o'clock Tuesday morning
luc VI INC ClCNliOh was NNSAAy
foretold Workers were on the streets
all day and cars were sent for those
who lived at a distance from the poll
ing places. 1t was at first thought
that an opposition vote might arise
from some few landowners but all
doubt was dispelled that afternoon
when the number of votes favoring the
issue increased in the same proper
tiOn.
THE roads to be hard-surfaced are
the Old Trails Route, from the
Saline township line to the Lamine
line and the Bell Air Road
to the Kelly township line. The work
will not be done until after the war.
1t means an expenditure of 100000
on the 90 miles of roads, $4,000 to the
mile The government, which is pay
ing for all the work, will also fur
nish engineers to oversee the work of
the roads according to
regulations.
The passage of the issue insures
the keeping of the Old Trails route
through Cooper County as the other
through which the Trail |
passes are expected to vote bonds |
without any difficulty"

THE OPEN COLUMN
The Red Star.

Editor the Missourian: The Red
Star is a most worthy war charity.
Its aim is to help our horses and dogs
now with the Americans in France.
When you think of the Red Cross and
what il means to our soldiers at the
front. think also of the Red Star
Animal Relief, which does for our
dumb animal friends just what the
Red Cross does for our fighting men
in Flanders and in France. We cannot
hope for victory unless we send food,
ships, money and men to our Allies
in Europe. When they get there, our
men cannot fight with efficiency unless
they have the proper supplies of food,
shells and horses. | understand that
England, Italy, France and all our
allies take the utmost care of their
dogs and horses now on duty with
their men. Shall We stand idly by and
let our soldiers fail for lack of these
animals. which we can save if we
will?
The Red Star urges you to help in
this most pressing matter. The money
raised will be used to purchase sur
gical dressings and ambulances for
the wounded animals. There is a
great demand at present for medicines
and bandages for the animals now in
France which have been injured. Be-
cause of the lack of ships it is almost
impossible to get many more horses
over there, and so it is vitality impor-
tant to save the lives of those already
there. To do this the proper surgical
dressings and attention are required
If those good and faithful servants
are to have these things, you can see
that some money must be raised to
buy them and get them there without
loss of time So this is what the Red
Star is trying to do.
The first ambulance of the Kansas
City chapter of the Red Star will be
bought soon. Money for it is being
raised by donations and entertain
ments. The annual horse show at
Longview Farm will be on Decoration
Day this year. for the benefit of the
