SALVATION ARMY |S ENDORSEDB BY DUR
 v|CE-PRES|OENT
Members of State Advisory Board from GreenIee County Attend Meeting
 in Phoenix on Sunday Last

.'The problem of today is not one of labor and capital, or of poverty and riches, or of democracy and aristoc- racy The problem of this age is to believe that men are naturally help full to each other and that men have natural interests in each other"
 This was the opinion expressed by Vice President Thomas R. Marshall a. the state convention of the Salvation Army Advisory boarQs at the Adams Hotel in Phoenix last Sunday.
 When he spoke before the delegates of the convention, the vice president broke a silence on public questions he has maintained since the death of his adopted son at Washington last month. Touching upon his bereavement and the reason for his talk at this time, MT. Marshall said:
 "I said to myself that while here l would not say anything on any public question, but when MT. Clark inform ed me that there was to be meeting for promoting the interests of the Sal vation Army, said I could not be faithful to the memory of the little one we loved so well if by any word of mine I could induce you gentlemen
  earth
 As this conference was a pioneer effort, the second of it's kind ever held in the United States, the unqualified indorsement of which the vice presi- dent gave the movement in his talk, encouraged the delegates to elaborate on plans for the future. These plans include a campaign for $30, ,000 bud get, to be carried on in Arizona from May 12 to May 20. This amount was decided upon after O. c. Bortzmeyer had presented a detafIed report which showed the conditions in every coun- ty of the state ana outlined their re- quirements.
 There were 62 delegaes and many visitors present. The newly organ ized lay boards will cooperate with the Army in their work. Vernon L. Clark, chairman of the state advisory board presided Avery Thompson city manager, made an address oi welcome to the visrors.
 Lieut.. Colonel Mary Stilwell of the Salvation Army sketched the work oi the organization, leading up to the present day activities from the estab 1ishment of the first rescue home 2f years ago. She impressed her hear CTS with the sincerity of her message and brought them to realization o the thousands of individuals indebted to the Army in many ways.
 Delegates attending from Greenies county were: F. H. Springer, MT. l. Bernstein and MT. A. W. Liddel.

FOLK 0F HAMELIN BRING PIPER ID
 CLIFTON

A capacity house greeted the Piper and the towns folk of Hamelin. Even the Rats of this quaint old berg came in for a generous share of the greet ings. Hamelin, you must know, is situated in Pennsylvania, which is only a Short distance from the spot where the first mirage was woven on those famous old looms of-but never mind, we were going to tell about the Piper when he came to Clifton.
 Some time ago MT Brown of the Grammar school decided to bring Hame1in right home to the good peo- pie of Clifton, and with the help of about forty dozen of the Grammar school children, he did it. We can never say again that we have never seen the Piper, or Hamelin, and it's people. or even the Rats of Hamelin for we saw them all last Thursday night, and they sang for us, did their quaint dances for us and explained to us certain details of how to arrive at civic cleanliness
 While all this was in full swing they dropped the curtain anl when it came up again a dainty little fairy from Old Spain tripped out and vamp- ed us. She did dance to deIectable strains from the piano that could only cause Geraldine Farrar to hesitate the next time she essays the role of Car men. Then quick as a flash she chang ed from a Spanish dancer to the Egyptian and we know Cleopatrara is right now tearing her grave clothes with envy! The house rocked with applause when the last step was taken and the last strain of music died. The modest recipient of all this was little Miss Josephine Martin.
 Then the Hamelin folk came back again and proceeded to show us how they rid their city of Rats. The Ham elin Rats were so perfectly dear we wonder why they wanted to be rid oi | them, but they seemed much excited about it, and the Piper made a bar | gain with them and turned the trick with a merry tune played on his pipes When they refused to keep their part of the bargain he reyenged himself by piping all the Hamelin children away i This was at last straightened out, the children returned, and then to show
 how much they appreciated a visi

lYCEUM COURSE AND SCHOOL PLAY
 COMBINE DATES WITH CHAUTAUQUA

Let Us Honor Our Flag

At meeting of the American Le- zion last Tuesday evening attention was called to the disreputable appear ance of a number of American Flags flying in Clifton, That custom, if not Federal regulation, calls for strict observance of the rules for handling the flag is sometimes thoughtlessly ig- nored. To those who were taught in the last few years the sacredness of the Colors it seems passing strange that a community will permit itself to become lax in this matter. The American Legion has done well to in terest itself, and we expect to see bright new flags waving where poor weather tortued remains have but late iy been sending appealingly thread bare rags to the wind. We have for eigners as guests within our gates and a matter of pride should also be an- other object to spur one into present ing only a flag to the breezes whose beauty is unmarred by wind and weather, for our patriotism can only be measured by an outsider from the appearance we present to the public.
