LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Flag Day the 14th of June.

Editor, Barre Times: Thanking you
for the many past favors, we once more
ask for space in your paper to call at
tention to Flag day, the. l4th of June.
which will be the l42d anniversary of
the birth Of our honored flag. In all
these years it has foated over our coun
| try, a symbol of freedom and protection,
| il has led on to victory the soldiers of
the Revolutionary war, the war of 1872,
the Mexican war, the great Civil war,
the Spanish American war and last of
all the great world war
| We can almost believe that this flag
had its birth in the spirit world The
! life blood of thousands has been spilled
in its defense, no not spilled, for within
| its crimson arteries the life blood still
| flows, giving strength and victory to our
nations emblem, making it not merely
an emblem, but living creature. Its
stripes have never yet been sullied with
stain of shame. This, the flag of Wash
! ington, the flag of Lincoln, the United
| States flag, the G. A. R. flag, the heaven
born flag, the flag which gives all free
dom to worship God, the flag which has
so lately been engaged in the mighty
vortex Of battle across the waters When
the purpose for which it was created
shall be realized then will come to the
! troubled nations of the world Gods per-
feet gift of universal peace.
When the Stars and Stripes were
raised over Fort Sumter, Major Ander-
son assembled his little band of about
80 men and the workmen engaged about
the fort around the foot of the flag staff,
the nations ensign was attached to the
cord and Major Anderson, holding the
ends of the line in his hand, knelt rev.
erently Many of the men were on their
knees, the chaplain made an earnest
prayer, an appeal for support and mercy
as one would make who felt that mans
extremity was Gods opportunity" As
the words ceased the men responded
Amen" the major drew the star
spangled banner to the top of the staff,
the band broke out with the national
air of Hail Columbia" loud cheers We're
given again and again by the men. If
an attack had been made on the fort
there would have been no hesitation on
the part of these men about defending
that flag. Our flag is symbol of all
that makes home for us.
The eolors of our flag are symbolic Of
love, truth, hope and loyalty; their Ian
guage is valor, purity and sincerity. The
flag should not be raised before sunrise
and should be lowered at sunset On
Memorial day the flag should be flown
at half staff until noon and then raised
to the top for the remainder Of the day
Let us remember that the only flag that
may be raised above the Stars and
Stripes is the church pennant, blue
cross on white ground.
Let the flag be displayed June IA at
all homes and places Of business, that we
may not only honor Old Glory hut show
the boys respect who have so lately been
defending her. Emma A. LaPoint
Press Correspondent of w. r. c.

THE AMERICAN LEGION SLOW TO
ORGANIZE.

Enrolment in the proposed posts of
the American legion, the organization Of
men who served in the war of l9l7-l9
seems to be going slowly; that is, there
is well defined backwardness about the
formation of posts. of the organization,
which was started at st. Louis. Tn
doubtedly the sluggishness of the move
ment is due to the lack of information
concerning the nature Of the parent or
ganization, and, perhaps, as to Ell eli
gibility to membership. In order TO ae-
quaint the public with the purpose and
scope of the American legion it might be
advisable to send out duly authorized
agents into the various states, they, in
turn, to deputize certain veterans OF the
war to go into the smaller places and
explain the legion Apparently con
strueted along lines similar to the Grand
Army Of the Republic, the American le.
gion ought to be able to muster very
large membership during the first year
Of its existence.

THE EcoNoNnc WASTE IN BARRE.

THE ECONOMIC WASTE IN BARRE
"The Barre Board of Trade is after an
industry that will employ 200 girls
Hope they succeed. Waterbury Record
Yes, by all means. You've got to keep
the girls busy if you want to keep them
out of mischief, Swanton Courier.
The Swanton contemporary may be
right; and again it may not be right
But aside from that, the great benefit OF
having such factory in Barre would be
the economic value that would result
therefrom. At the present time there
are few chances for girls and young
women in Barre to engage in useful EN-
ployment, and their economic energy is
going to waste, There are hundreds of
persons Of the right age for employment
in factories Of this sort who are com
PEELED to seek employment in the large
cities or spend their time in partial idle
ness at home, A factory such as is con
tempated would furnish place where
large number of these girls and young
women could remain in Barre and vet
earn good wages. That is the chief rea
son why it is hoped that arrangements
can be made for getting one or more in,
dustries of this sort in Barre.

The graduating class Of Norwich uni,
versity in the 1919 exercises held this
week was small in numbers but the size
of the class is readily accounted for by
the fact that the ,call of the country
came when the present seniors were in
the middle of their courses, enlistment
necessitating that they forego the priv
ilege of completing their studies. Nor
witch contributed large number of men
for the service OF the country, and the
class Of 1919 contributed its full share
of the university's list Of men engaged
in that service. Therefore, the patriot
ism emanating from the institution at
Mortified more than makes up for the
paucity of its graduates this year; and
the class of 1910, though small in mum
bers, will be held in esteem for its devo.
tion to the country.

The Inauguration of the district health
officer system in Vermont on July l.,
next, is likely to result to the advantage
of the smaller towns of the state which
heretofore have not had the services of
health officers at all because of the
towns failure to provide such officials.
In the cases of the cities and larger
towns there is not likely to be much
difference, inasmuch as most Of them
will choose to have their own health
officers, as they are permitted TO do UNI
der the law providing the cities and
towns Of 5000 population pay for the
service. The working out of the system
as whole will be watched with more
than usual interest because OF the com.
