70 thc Members Of The Community
Tabor Boards:
| trust sincerely that no lncmbcr Of
a Community Labor Board will fail
10 appreciate that the cessation Of
hostilitics brings now opportunities
for service and imposes new and inn
portant duties. The country now faces
the obligation to return to suitable
employment those whom under the
stress OF war II has induced 10 enter
lis service in Tic field or in the fac
tory. Upon the manner in which that
obligation will be fulfilled depends in
very large measure the wcll-bcing Of
the people for many wears 10 come, as
well as the vindication OF those prin-
ciplcS Of Justice which animated US in
the pursuits Of war.
There is no inStrumcntality at the
Governments command 50 well equip
ped TO help in the process Of tranS-
ton from war 10 peace as the Com
munity Labor Boards, and at no time
since the beginning Of the war has the
need Of such services been SO urgent
or the duty imposed upon those cap
able Of performing them SO impcra-
tive.
Therefore, I confidently appeal to
each Of you to continue at your post
until the last unit of our forces over
seas shall have been brought back to
appropriate pursuits Of peace and the
last man to be withdrawn from war
portunity of employment for which he
is fitted to serve.
The demands OF these days arc per-
hapS even greater because more diff
cult to fulfill than the high call of
duty in war. We must be true to our
selves and to our faith and discharge
the problems that arc pressing upon
us. Much depends upon the members
of The Community Labor Boards in the
rul!illmont Of our task.

THE OLD FLAG.

God bless our brave old Union Flag!
Tis the symbol of the free;
From river, vale and mountain crag,
1t lights to victory!
No New Flag can the Old replace,
No traitor shall its stars erase,
Nor ruthless foe its stripes deface-
Brave arms will. shield it from disgrace,
Chorus-Proudiy over sea and land,
1t floats above our hero band,
And pledged its every heart and hand
To the Old Flag of the Union
That Flag, in the days that tried mems souls,
Was borne thro' storm nd,food;
Our Fathers fought beneath it's folds,
This halowed by their blood;
Memories of the storied dead
Immortal halo round it shed,
And ever shall it's lustre spread
Where freedoms martyrs fought and bled
Chorus:
Mid the smoke and flame of the battle tide
What cheers our brave lads on?
'Tis the star.lit flag, the soldiers pride,
Cleaning thrugh the war clouds dun,
Triumphantly it waves on high,
Its foes in wild confusion fly;
Whilst echoing hills repeat the cry,
"Our Flag! The Union! Victoryw
Chorus:
All honor to our gallant stars,
Columbia's fearless sons
Whose watchword is the "Stripes and Stars"
Their war.cry, imam the gum
Their noble deeds, the voice of Fame
TO endless ages shall proclaim;
And evermore pure glory's fame
Will glld the Union sailors name.
Chorus
Then fling the Old Flag to the breeze!
Loved, honored, let it BEL
In foreign lands, in distant seas,
1t still protects the free!
That Standard ever must remain
Purge'd of treason's blighting strain
The sacred blood of Patriots slain
Now bedews it's folds again
Chorus
