Eulogy to the Flag

Start the song of the Star Spanged Banner up
on the crowded streets-revelry ceases reverence
steals upon them and thousands pause and bow
their heads This signifies that thousands who came
to our shores seeking liberty justice and equality of
opportunity have learned and understood that under
this flag, we have a government of the people, by
the people and for the people" 1t signifies that
the native American understands how dedicated to
the freedom of ali mankind this emblem is and wor-
ships willingly at its shrine
Its Stars and Stripes hearten today the boys In
training camp, in barracks upon the sea-in bill
let stations, in the fighting line and in Red Cross
hospitals behind the line-and keeps the home fires
burning in their hearts.
1t has taken the pain of parting from your heart
and placed in it the courage to await his return-or
a message of his sacrifice.
1t will shield thousands of boys asleep in the
soil of France; asleep that liberty and this Flag
not become a memory and by-Word.
Was ever flag so beautiful; did ever flag fire
the souls of men the world over this flag does to-
day? 1t is kissed by warworn thousands born
proudly through the streets of London by an Amer
lean army of Freedom. France bathes it in her
1t takes it's place in the battle line side by side
with her glorious tr-color.
PROSTATE Belgium recognizes in this Flag the
nation which succored her and the army that will
drive the bestal invader from her soil and restore to
her that of which she was robbed freedom.
The wounded soldier struggling to his knees to
carry on long strength may last sees it flashing
in the sunlight on the Marine, at Cantigny. at Cha
teau Thierry, at Belleau Wood and reads its mess
age to the Hun: Thou shalt not pass"
To us at home this Flag must mean the love of
women-the tenderness of baby arms-and the sense
of duty to protect them. 1t must mean the heart
throbbings that impel the humblest American to
stand by his colors in defense of the freedom Of the
world and holding it sweet if need be, to die for it.
And by every sacrifice of every character which
we can make we must defend it. Without it there
is no ray of hope to manly H. M. Magevney.

Romantic Sicily

Sicily's history is vivid and picturesque. as
ferocious and creative and destructive, mythical
and intensely practical the stories of all the
of the world put together. And in beauty of nature.
of climate or and of beast the island is para
disc today, whether not it the voorhees,,
painless passonless elysium where our first ances-
tiers enjoyed all the good things of life without hav
ing to toll.
Nature, ITSELF now in the guise of the misun-
dersood gods of old, now in commissions or in quiet
fertility that science has made plain to us, it's
mysterious shuttle through and through the highly
colored fabric
And men-such men!-tower above their fell
lows in the story like Titans-PiDdar. Aeschylus.

Buy a Liberty Bond
By WOODROW WILSON, PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES


Again the government comes to the people of
the country with the request that they lend their
money, and lend it upon more liberal scale than
ever before, in order that the great war for the
rights of America and the liberation of the world
may be prosecuted with increasing vigor to
victorious conclusion. And it makes the appeal
with the greatest confidence because it knows that
day it is becoming clearer and clearer to think
ing men throughout the nation that the winning of
the war is essential investment The money that
is held back will be of little value if the
war is not won and the selfish masters of Germany
are permitted to dictate what America may and may
not do. Men in America, besides. have from the
first until dedicated both their lives and their
fortunes to the vindication and maintenance of the
great principles and objects for which govern
ment set up They will not fail to show
the world for what their wealth was intended

Bury Me in The Sunshine

Several years ago the late Archbishop Ireland
was discussing the subject of the crypt in the new
Cathedral the place intended for the burial of the
Archbshops of st. Paul. Suddenly he exclaimed
oh bury me in the sunshine when de- few
days before his death the venerable preate gave
preston to the same sentiments when he said: Let
me lie out there with my people, under the green sod
of Calvary; it is my WISH" says The Catholic World
Mr. James Nolan, who was present at the above
meeting put the sentiments into the following
ses which were published at the time
Bury Me In the Sunshine
Bury me in the sunshine
There would have my rest,
On some fair slope, tree.sentinelled,
In the great all-mother's breast.
Rain-swept, wind-swept, snow-swept,
As the seasons come and co.
And God renews the gala dress
OF this His world below.
Sarcophagus of porphyry
In dismal crypt or vault, =
If this must be the seal of fame,
I gladly make default.

The waters gurgling flow:
Where God renews the gala dress
OF this His world below.

DEAR MIRROR:
notice has been sent recently to persons en-
gagged in war work. requesting that everybody write
a letter to his Home Paper by way of helping the
United War Work Campaign for funds One such
notice came to me and after some consideration de-
cided that THE MIRROR came near being my home

receive regularly and when it arrives frequently
get word from the mail distributor that there is

Another reason why 1 glad to write this
letter is that it will reach good many who
are going to subscribe literally to the new fund. l
remember how the previous have been re-
sponded to at Saltwater. So want to tell you all
(as we say down here) that your money is being
spent in ways that have made the army the most
wonderful army II is army not only
of trained fighters with good, strong bodies but it is
an army with brains and souls. 1t takes more than

Losses of Ships
AS Reported
To WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, June Sup to q
late hour tonight the destruction of
five sailing craft and the tanker Her
bert L. Pratt was the record of losses
to U-boats officially reported to the
Navy Department. The fate of the
coastwise. liner Carolina, which re-
ported by wireless yesterday she was
being shelled, was still unknown. The
crews OF some of the craft destroyed
have been brought into port with a
story of eleven days Imprisonment
aboard an enemy submarine.
Losses Reported to Daniels
Tonight MIR. Daniels summarized thu
information reaching the Department
as follows:
"Navy Department reports show
that the following vessels have been
sunk:
Jacob M. Haskell, schooner, 1852

Norfolk, eleven in crew, no passengers.

but the advantage would be slight.
They may legally in any event enter
Mexican ports for supplies. remaining
there ouly twenty four hours.
The American coast and the West In
dies have been constantly and thor
oughly watched. Over Mexico no such
surveillance is practicable, but all that
can be done has been done to keep
Mexico clear of the U-boat.
One of the submarines making the
present attacks is said to have been
larger than the U-53. which once Wis
tied Newport. And the U-53 was sup
posed to have a radius of 6OOO miles
The U53 was a boat of about 500
tons capacity. The 200-foot U-boat is
supposed to be of about 1,2OO tons
capacity. A submarine of that size
might readily mount 6-inch guns and it
N ght have a steaming radius of 1000
10 5000 miles.
Apparently the 200 footer is not the
largest U-boat which the navy knows
of from practical experience. Naval
mon speak Of 250-foot U-boats as if
they were realities. One of that size
might have displacement of 1000
tons and a steaming radius that would
permit her to remain some time in
American waters. U-boats larger than
that fare, so far as our navy knows,
merely myths" Apparently none of
the tabled 5000 and 5,OOO-ton undersea
cruisers has ever been captured. Wash

'Change Closes Higher
Despite U-Boat Raid

Traders on the New York Stock Ex-
change were little impressed yesterday
with Germany's attempt to frighten
the American people by sinking steam
crs on this coast of the Atlantic. Prices
were remarkably steady under the cir
cumstances, and in many cases the quo
tations closed higher than on Satur-
day.
When the first report reached the
exchange and it was greatly exag-
gerated-stocks in large quantities
were thrown on the market, and prices
rapidly slumped from one to four
points. Many traders, anticipating a.
large decline, sold short, helping the
general downward trend. AS soon as
the effect of the sinkings was better
understood traders started to buy back,
and prices regained their former levels.
Observers of the reflex of the ac-
tivities of the U-boats on the exchange
emphasized the fact that the general
public did not participate in the tenn
porary depression. The professional
traders were largely responsible for
the momentary break, and when they
found the public failed to follow their
lead they took more cheerful view of
the situation.

Mock Submarine Hunt
AS U-Boats Attacked

CAPE MAY, N. j.. June 3.--While
the two German submarines we're sink
ing American merchantmen off the New
Jersey coast feet Of naval subma
rine chasers and hydro o-airplanes we're
staging q mock submarine hunt off the
mouth of Delaware Bay fer the benefit
of Rear Admiral Stephen McRae
Winslow
Admiral Winslow arrived at the
headquarters base of the 4th Naval
District here, where 10000 naval re-
serves are quartered, and from which
point destroyers, submarine chasers
and air feet operate to protect the
mouth of the Delaware. yesterday
morning.
Every boat was at once put into ser
vice and scores of fiers went winging
their way out over the ocean in the
mimic submarine hunt, while Admiral
Winslow followed aboard a destroyer
He and his staff we're fully convinced
after a two-hour demonstration, that
there was no danger of subma arine
attack
Within two hours thereafter, while
the officers were entertaining at din
ner in the various hotels and the men
were on leave, word of attacks by Ger
man submarines was received, and air
planes, m motorcycle couriers and buglers
were sent through the town and out
into the country to round up the u
boat hunters. In another hour two
score destroyers and chasers and many
fliers we're on the search.
