SATURDAY, JANUARY is, 1919.

During the morning hours of this
day the planetary influences are not
fortunate. according to astrology.
Uranus rules strongly for evil Venus
Is in benefic aspect. The Sun is ad-
verse.
The planet supposed to incline men
and women to see one another's faults
and to criticise them is in a place
most menacing for all in public life
Secret forces arc believed to be
strongly active in tearing down char
acters that have been raised high in
public esteem and these forces ma Y
cause serious trouble in labor mat
ters as well as in politics.
Warning is given that there may be
rapid growth of radical ideas in the
United States. These may be preached
in drawing-roOms and churches as
well as on street corners.
The fault-finding influences that
tend to depreciate public service and
to discredit public servants will ex-
tend to private life and many divorces
are prognosticated, owing to the cap
tious spirit.
This is believed TO be a lucky day,
since 1t promises material success as
well as good luck in love.
This is not a favorable sway under
which to seek positions and there is
representation that some govern
ment agency will be severely ar
raiGned because of inability to place
soldiers and others who seek work.
While the seers caution men and
women to be frugal careful and un-
usually industrious during this new
year. they declare that prosperity may
be maintained. if wisdom is exercised
Danger through pessimistic propa =
ganda is foretold.
The President of the United States
comes under a sway this month that
is enigmatical since it is read as
combining opposite tendencies that
have in them supreme possibilities.
He is to reach an apex of popularity
that, however, does not measure wha t
the future will bring him, If he safe
guards his health.
Persons whose birthdate il is have
the augury of travel and change. New
friends may alter the course of life.
The young will marry.
Children born on this day may be
proud and domineering but warm
hearted and affectionate. These SUBJ
Jects of Capricorn, who are on the
cusp have Aquarius characterics
usually and are more successful in
love affairs than they are in business.

younger children kissed me and sat on
MY knees and gave me the small news
of the Aeighborhood.
How good were the look OF those

WHAT FLAG MEANS TO ALL
Days of Sacrifice and Devotion Have
Made II Cause of Pride to
Every American.

The flag means more to Americans
in the year 1919 than it has ever meant
in our lives. And why? Not, surely,
because 1t is more familiar. Nor yet
because it floats over hosts of sol Hers
and mighty fleets. There were soldiers
and fleets before. Not therefore, be-
cause of its new part in the panoply
of war.
1t means more to us because we
have put more into 1t. Because, after
years of peace and plenty in which we
thought of our flag chiefly as some
thing to protect and guard us, we have
in time of war and grief and hardship
learned to know our flag as something
for us to protect and guard and serve.
A flag, I'm short, is as great as its
people--and no greater When they
are great and generous and coura-
geous, it is great and beautiful and
holy. When they falter and haggle,
their flag is less than nothing to them,
as to the world at large.
Ours to love and cherish and die for
IL the greatest Of causes Therefore
source Of pride and of deep emotion
to every American. That is the lesson
we are learning in these days of sacri-
flee and devotion, wher a flying bit OF
color becomes the most glorious and
joyous and sacred thing in the whole
wide wofld.--New York Tribune.

BRIEF HISTORY or THE FLAG
Glorious Record From January 10,
1875, to Its Proud Position In
the World In 1919.

The Stars and Stripes was raised
on the heights near Boston on Janu-
airy 1S, 1T76, and the British troops be-
lieved It to be evidence of submits
sion to the king. The Betsy Ross
flag, the official flag came later.
After the declaration of independ-
ence, July 4, 1776, the first salute to 1t
was given by the Dutch island of st.
Eustatlous in the West Indies by Jo-
hannes de Graf, commander Of the
port.
When Kentucky and Vermont came
into the Union in 1854 two additional
stars were placed ON the field, but
they were discarded after much de-
bate in congress and the original thir-
teen were restored in 1918.
The first flag that floated over for
eign and captured fort was at Nassau,
January IS, 1878. The first carried
to London was on a vessel February 3.
1888. 1t floated in China In 1884.
1t was carried around the world from
1877 TO 1890. The first blood shed un-
der 1t was in Ireland in 1870 during a
mob riot over a bridge built by Ameri-
can engineers. The first salute to 1t
given by an English vessel was in May,
1901.
One Of Napoleon's generals remark
ed to the illustrlous man that senti-
me1t had no place In the thought OF
country. Napoleon replied: SEN
timent concerns what most enriches
life"
