Oh, say, YOU see, by the dawn's early light
What proudly hailed the twileht's cleaning
Whose broad stripes bright through the fight
Ger the rampars watched CALAMITY sramnsl
And the rockets glare, the bombs bursting air,
Gave proof through the night flag still
Oh, say, does that star-spanged banner yet
Ger the land OF the free and the home OF the brave2
On that shore dimy through the mists the deep,
Where the foes naughty host dread silence reposes
What is that which the breeze, the towering steep
As fitfully blows, cOnceas, discloses2
Now it catches the CLEAN Of the mornings first beam,
In full glory reflected shines the stream;
It's the star-spangled banner; oh, long may
Ger the land of the free and the home of the bravel
Oh thus be it when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the desolationi
Best with victory and peace may the heavn rescued land
Praise the that hath made and preserved nation.

And the star-spansled banner in triumph shall
Ger the land of the free and the home the brave.

A PATRIOTIC FAMILY.

/ The wealthy and influential God
chaux family of Louisiana, descend
ants of the late Leon Godchaux, is
setting an example of practical pa
triotism and loyalty that is worthy OF
all possible emulation and praise. A
number of it's members, both men and
women. have enlisted for service in
various war activities essential to the
successful prosecution Of the great
enterprise of making the world safe
for democracy upon which our ma
ton has embarked.
The most recent Godchaux ere
cruit" is. Judge Emile Godchaux of
New Orleans, who has resigned his Of
fee as one of the judges of the court
of appeal to go to France and engage
in Red Cross work. This service is
urgently in need of Americans who
can speak French, and Judge God
chaux felt that he could not consclen-
tiously refrain from responding to
the demand. He will receive no
salary and will pay his own expenses,
hence his action typifies patriotism
and loyalty of the highest and finest
order.
1t is understood that all the men,
bers of Edward Godchaux's branch of
the family, parents and children alike,
are doing some kind of war work,
and each of the other branches is
furnishing a creditable quota: of
volunteers who labor freely with. no
hope or desire of reward save the
consciousness of serving the interests
of their country and the cause Of hu
manity. -'
Glory be to all such good people as
the Godchauxs

SENATOR LAFOLLETTE CON
DEMNED.

Both houses of the Wisconsin legis-

the following resolution:
''The people of the state Of Wis
consin always have stood and always
will stand squarely behind the ma
tional government in all things which
are essential to bringing the present
war to successful end, and we con-
demn Senator Robert Lafollette and
all others who have failed to see the
righteousness Of our nations cause,
or who have failed to support our
government in matters vital to the
winning of the war, and we denounce
any attitude or utterance Of theirs
which has tended to incite sedition
among the people Of our country and
to injure Wisconsin's fair name be-
fore the free people Of the world
Friends Of the recalcitrant senator
tilibustered all night in the house of
representatives to prevent a vote on
the resolution, but a persistent ma
jority maintained it's position until the
proposition was finally adopted by SO
yeas to 33 nays il.

PASSOVER FEAST OBSERVED.
Patriotic Touch to Services Commem-
Grating Jewish Festival.

The feast of Passover, commemorate
ing the wondrous deliverance of the
Jews from Egyptian bondage, was OBJ
served by the members Of Bikur
Chol m Congregation with impressive
services in their temple of worship

mann delivered an eloquent address
On the significance of the festival,
and took occasion to preach a pa
triotic sermon at the same time, urg-
ing the male members Of the congre-
cation to cooperate to the fullest ex-
tent of their ability in all phases of
war work, and the ladies to devote
their best efforts in behalf of the Red
Cross FOR the ultimate benefit of the
boys in the trenches. The musical
accompaniment to the impressive
ceremonies was rendered by choir
composed of Mrs. w. A. Poche, or
ganist, Mrs. Joel G. Richardson and
Miss Ethel Werner.
A large American flag which has
been draped over the Holy Ark in the
temple was dedicated Thursday morn
ing, the choir singing "The Star
Spangled Banner" while the congre-
cation stood. Addressing the assem-
blage, Mr.. Singer said:
eve are standing before the Holy
Ark, which contains the Holy Thorah
given by God to Moses and the chill
dren of Israel, and which is the heri-
tage of the house of Israel. It is
hidden from our view by the flag OF
our country, the stars and stripes, now
displayw in one thousand aKnagogues
throughout this broad ahd. The
United States of America has been
from It's beginning a haven for the
Jewish people, and we in turn have
been some of It's best and most loyal
citizens. BY virtue of the power.
vested in me as your reader, hereby
dedicaN, this flag for the lapble and
g1orious purpose which itSindicates.
AS this flag has been shield and
protection to our fathers, to us, and
to our children, so may it continue for
future generations, not only to the
house of Israel, but to all mankind
and humanity. Long and forever
may it wave Ger the land of the free
and the home Of the brave"
Bikur Cholim Congregation has two
of it's members in the military service
of the nation, and two more are due
to respond to the next draft call.

SAFEST SECURITY IN THE
WORLD.

The credit of the United States was
so unquestionable. that in 1900, two
years after the Spanish war;. 2 per
cent bonds were offered at par and
oversubscribed. This is a financial
performance no other nation has ever
equaalled. :,s.
Back of the 100000, 900, 900. of
this nations resources, stands the
rugged honesty of America. War
savings and thrift stamps are the
safest security in the world.
The United States has never de-
faulted on any of it's bonds. Not one
of its bondholders has ever lost a cent
of principal or interest, except those
who h-~e voluntarily takeEsosses by
selling their bonds in period of
temporary price depression. One
hundred cents on the dollar, principal
and interest, haf the, United States
always paid. I'LL 55.s;i
