THE FLAG OF MAN


HyHTEAVE for the world the flag of man
w Finish the fabric our sires began.
Out of our lives shall the thread be spunl
Out Of our veins shall the color run!
Out of our deeds shall rise its luster
Out of our dreams its stars shall cluster
Wide as the heavens spin the span
OF freedoms fabric-the flag of man!
Ply the shuttle and crowd the loom!
Spin the threads of the tyrants doom!
Spin humanity's hopes fulfilled
Shackles sundered and cannon stilled.
Blend the glorious flags of the free
In the far spun cloth of fraternity
Twine with the victor's shining sheaf
The somber threads of the peoples grief
Those who inherit must know the price
Dye the folds in our sacrifice!
Weave for the world the flag of man!
Gather the nations into its span.
Yea, there shall still be struggle to spin,
And divers goals for the tribes to win,
But show them Joined in generous strife
To lead the race to larger life;
Lifting the torch of common aim
Out of warfare's trampled flame.
Making the roads our armies beat
Paths to a common judgment seat"'

The Shore In September

FIN1E sands are lonely in the fall. On
those broad New Jersey beaches, where
the rollers sprawl inward in ridges of
crumbing snow. the ocean looks almost
wistfully for its former playmates. The
children are gone, the small brown legs,
the toy shovels and the red tin pals. The
familiar figures of the summer season have
vanished: the stout ladies who sat in avn
inged chairs and wrestled desperately to
unfurl their newspapers in the wind the
handsome mahogany tanned lifesavers, the
vampernoes necessarily drying their tawny
hair, the corpulent males of dark complexion
wearing ladies' bathing caps. the young men
playing q degenerate baseball with a rubber
sphere and bit of shingle. All that life
and excitement, fed upon hot dogs and
vanilla cones, anointed with cold cream
and citronella, has vanished for another
year.

imposing bulge of the real estate agent, who
has been too busy selling lots and dreaming
hotel sites to visit the surf hitherto. Far

little quiet fishing from the tafrail of
deserted pier. The engineer of the ROLLER

boardwalk and discusses the league of ma

along the crowded arcade, has boarded up

All those gayly caparisoned horses, with
their bright Arabian housings, their flowing
names and tossing heads and scarlet painted
nostrils, stand stilled in the very gesture
of glorious rotation. One remembers what
