Juarez, Mex, Aug. S.-General
Francisco Murguia, commander Of the
north, has forsaken the ways of way
for more peaceful pursuits. While he
has not relinquished his command of
the northeastern military zone, Cen
eral Murguia is devoting practically
all of his time and attention to re-
constructive work in northern Mex
leo.
In addition to the agricultural COL
onies he has established at Molinar
and Casas Grande1, Chihuahua, he
has plans for opening large tracts of
land which were conf1scated from land
holders during the revolution and COL
onizing on these tracts with Mexi-
cans from the crowded cities Of the
south and with Mexican laborers who
have been forced to go to the United
States to seek employment.
When the constitutional movement
led by Carranza succeeded, the work
Of the Madero revolution, which had
been left unfinished, was resumed.
Confiscation DEGREES were issued
against General Luis Terrazas and
many other large land holders in the
north. These lands have been under
the control of the government since
they were seized by the confiscation
decree issued by Francisco Villa
while he was commander of the north
under Carranza. They are we'll
adapted to cattle grazing, irrigation
farming where water is available and
in many places cutting high grade
timber. 1t is these lands that Gen.
eral Murguia plans to colonize and
his experimental colony at Molinar,
north of Chihuahua City, is receiving
practically all of his attention at the
present. He visits it frequently and
assists the colonists.

Young women with brave hearts
and strong physiques are needed for
nurses, and a glorious opportunity
for service is offered them. But we
fear that perhaps not more than one
out of hundred young women
would be able to perform the arduous
duties involved. Sentimental girls
who think that nursing consists most
ly of making themselves as pretty as
possible while they bind a wounded
hero's brow, or daintily serve him q
little broth, would be only in the way.
Strong, capable, good-natured, even
tempered girls who are not afraid OF
hard work and disagreeable tasks, are
the kind the army is crying for.

RIGHT USE OF THE FLAG

In these days when every house
hold should have a flag, and should
fly it upon every occasion offered. its
crrect use should be known to ALL
The following from the National Ge-
ographic Magazine, tells the proper
usage succinctly:
While there Is no federal law in
force pertaining to the manner OF
displaying, hanging or saluting the
United States flag, or prescribing any
ceremonies that should be observed,
there are many regulations and us
ages of national force hearing upon
the subject.
I'm raising the flag it should new
er be rolled up and hoisted to the
top of the staff before un furling. In
stead the flag should be free during
the act of hosting, which should be
done quickly. 1t should be taken
in slowly and with dignity. 1t should
pos be allowed to touch the ground
en- shore, nor should 1t be permitted
70 trail in the dust. 1t should no
be hung where it can be contaminat-
ed or soiled easily, or draped over
chairs or benches for seating pur
poses, and no object or emblem oil
any kind should be placed upon 1T OF
Lincoln County times. (Jerome, Idaho) 1911-1919, 1918-07-11

above it,
"A common but regrettable prac-
tice at public meetings is to drape
the flag like a tablecloth over the
speakers table and then place on the
nag a pitcher of ice water, flowers,
books, etc.
THE flag should not be festooned
over doorways or arches Always
let the flag hang straight. Do not
tie it in a bow knot Where colors
are desirable for decorative proposes,
use red. white and blue bunting.
The flag should not be hoisted up
SIDE down, other than as a signal of
distress at sea.
international usage forbids the
display of the flag of one nation
ebove that of any other with which
it is at peace. When the flags OF
two or more nations are displayed.
they should be on separate STATS, or
on separate halyards of equal size
aLc on the same level
The flag should never be raised
oc lowered by any mechanical appli-
arce.
when the national colors are
passing on parade, or in review, the
spectator should If walking. halt,
and if sitting, raise. and stand at at
ter ton and uncover.
when flags are used in unwilling
statute or monument they should
not be allowed TO fall to the ground,
but should be carried aloft to wave
out, forming a distinctive feature
curing the remainder of the cere-
moBy.
Where the national flag is dis
Played with State or other flags. it
Should be given the place of honor on
the right. It's use should be con-
fined as much as possible to it's dis
play upon the staff. Where used as
banner, the union should fly to
the north in streets running east and
west, and to the east in streets run
ming north and south.
odd, faded, or WORKOUT flags
should not be used for banners or
other secondary purposes.
When no longer fit for display,
the flag should be destroyed pri-
vately, preferably by burning or 9TH
er methods lacking the suggestion
Of irreverence or disrespect.
"A flag or an ensign at half-mast
is the universal sign of mourning.
Before being placed at half-mast the
nag must always be raised to the ton
OF the staff, and before It is lowered
from half-mast 1t must likewise be
hoisted to the top.

Efficiency is the watchword OF the

up-to-date housewife employs up-to-

in the best possible manner in the

fense in the annals of heroic deeds in all the world. As to why this regiment was not reinforced this deponent saith not, for he knows not. Kemmel was vital point It has withstood ten assaults already. lt had been known for weeks that it was a Ger man objective Doubtless if the allies had had the men they would have held it. Foch's strategy is as yet unrevealed. His cards are still in his hand. A mere fringe of French and English troops are holding the front lines against hordes of German soldiers. Not even at points that have been under overwhelming pressure for weeks have the allies massed troops in large num- bers to hold these positions. High ground as well as low has been given up day after day before superior numbers. In modern war no high ground can be taken except by thousands over hundreds In spite of continued reverses and a monotous dirge of bad news and the steady German ad- vance up to and past danger points, this column steadfastly believes that Foch holds the trump card still in his strong, swift, skilled hand, and then when he plays it he will sweep the board.
