me siiken banner gently floating in
the breeze
And swiftly from the mast-tops on the
seas,
is but the faintest symbol of that
nameless flag,
That fires the prancing steed and stirs
the jaded nag;
That thrills the souls of men to dare
to do great deeds,
And soothes the pallid lips and binds
the heart that bleeds;
Moves Armies on the land and Navies
on the sea,
And in the breast OF man plants hope
Of victory.
The symbols seen by the eye and felt
by finger tips,
The flags the wond'rous Hope of the
Apocalypse.
The symbol is the shadow soon to fade
away,
The flag is lasting as the stars in the
milky way.
The symbols like the stupid figure on
the board,
The flags the living Rock, the great
unspoken Word
The symbols oft suspended from a
golden pole,
The flag is deeply rooted in the human
soul
The symbols brightly colored red and
white and blue,
The flag reflects the spirit of God in
me and you.
The symbol may be rent and perish
on the sod,
The flag is sealed forever in the heart
of God.
The flag is like a bless ed angel sent
from God,
Within her secret breast to bear His
treasured Word,
And in her folded arms to bring the
souls of men
And on her gilded wings to take them
back again.
It spreads it's sacred folds out over
land and sea,
And covers country, mother, home and
liberty.
It's stripes Of red and white and starry
field of blue
Is the only hope we have to make our
dreams come true.
Wave on, wave on, wave on, brave
Flag, on land and sea,
Wave on until "the world is safe for
democracy"
Wave on, wave on, wave on, wave on,
Old Glory, wave!
Wave on until each tyrant's in his
lowly grave.

acted, features that would mean mil
lions of dollars to the farmers and no
loss to the ultimate consumers of
farm products, and they were turned
down.
The things asked were:
The re-establishment of the War
Finance Corporation which would
bring immediate relief by carrying the
cotton crop to the cotton mills of the
old world and allow them to place
their goods on the market before pay
ability TO finance themselves having
closed their operations and paralyzed
the cotton trade of the world. The
same principle applying to other ex-
port materials.
Every official, with the exception
of the Secretary of the Treasury. in
dorsed in the strongest terms this
proposition" is the words of the Presi-
dent of the American Cotton Associa-
ton.
And what do you suppose was the
defense put up by the Secretary? Her.
IL is: 1T would not be wise to in
crease the Indebtedness of the gov
ernments of Central Europe for the
purpose of marketing agricultural pro-
ducts there. | do not think it wise
for the government to subsidise our
producers or TO maintain or increase
the level of prices here by stimulating
sales to European countries which
find themselves unable or unwilling
10 make payments for their purchas-
es."
There you have it, He doesn't want
the markets opened. They are closed.
What does bankruptcy of farmers
mean to the Honorable Digniifed Sec
rotary of the Treasury? A man who
has been Secretary of Agriculture and
il would seem would have imbibed q
reasonable understanding and sympa
thy for farmers, in his new position
of Secretary of the Treasury, shows a
positive antipathy to any proposal to
save millions to the country without
injury to the consuming public, for the
consumers will finally pay as much as
they would were the crop marketed
gradually as the farmers are desiIus
of doing.
The other thing asked for was the
carrying out of the spirit, letter and
purpose of the Federal Reserve Law.
That liberal extentions of credits be
allowed on commercial taper based on
farm products which meet the require
ments of the Federal Reserve Act, due
TO the fact that our exports have been
blocked by inability of European mar
kets to respond to the demands of
trade. for lack of finances.
This was refused also:
The only thing left for the farmers
TO do was to form an Export Corpor
alton and finance it, opening up the
foreign markets in spite of the handi-
cap brought about by the collapse OF
credits and the depreciation of for.
eign exchange.
This is under way. 1t is proposed
TO capitalize an Export Corporation for
handling cotton for $1O0,OOO,O00. This
effort should receive our utmost and
enthusiastic support. If handled
honestly and efficiently it will prove
the right arm of power for the pro-
ducers, not only for the present but
for years TO come.
If the farmers do not support their
headquarters in Washington they will
take the consequence. Business and
political affairs cannot be separated.
Farmers should take a lively interest

Early Day History.

Eds. Freeman-.IOurnal In order t(
Straightcn out Il bit of interesting
Hamilton county history. we came tC
the conclusion when reading in youl
paper the report Of Uncle JAS Bells
birthday dinner. the particulars OF
which were no doubt furnished by one
of his many admiring friends-ot
which the writer is surely one-that
we would add a word to our early
history This is done in JUS
tice to the early pioneers and to
history itself. also to the younger gen
era ton as well as to the older ones
who are confused. and to relieve the
minds of many of the 'abOve five
hundred who are between fifty and
sixty years old Also it is due
."Uncle Jas" himself. who has to stand
good naturedly the ''honors' or "indig-
mites" thrust upon him. for we know
if he were consulted he would never
give his consent to have things written
the way they sometimes are.
True history cannot be changed. At
the close of the civil war First Lieu
tenant Joseph Bone arrived home to
his wife and nine children-"who can
say which were the greater soldier for
their country" He bought the small
water mill from Il man named Ecker
son on the spot which is now known
as Bells MILL one of the three first
mills ever built on Boone river. He
tore the mill down and built new. He
replaced the log house with the frame
house which is now going to decay on
top of the hill. His wife's father
Alanson Bryan-who many of the old
settlers will remember. moved here and
bought a half interest in the mill and
built the house where Uncle Jas"
Bell now lives.
In 1872 Joseph Bone sold his interest
in the mill to man named John Ather-
ton. The next year Mr.. Bryan sold his
interest in the mill to Benjamin Bell,
father of Jasper Bell. and cousin OF
Preston Bell, who lived near the mill
and was reputed to be the earliest
settler of the county. The Benjamin
Bell family lived near where the Lot
now stands. After Ben
iamin Bell bought the mill. his son.
John Bell. younger brother of Uncle
and lived in the house which is now
the home Of Uncle Jas. SO one can
readily see that from around 1878
TO 1920 makes it nearer Al years than

WE SHALL SET THE PACE IN
THIS CITY

We make the prediction that profiteer-
ing in this locality will stop with the open
ing of Community Stores of Iowa. We
have stopped it iii the cities where we have
stores, with the result that many men of
local prominence are patrons OF our
stores. The list includes county officers
bankers, farmers, professional men, bust
ness men, stockmen, working mcn-in fact,
all classes of men and women who love
good things to eat and who know values
in all kinds of merchandise.

HOW 1T IS DONE

In each Of these communities several
hundred men and women have joined our
Community Club for one year, paying
small fee which amounts to about five
cents day The member receives certi-
fcate which entities him to trade at the
Community Store and purchase goods at
wholesale prices plus 1929 to cover cost of
handling. This privilege saves him from
POO to 5000 Oh all purchases of grocer
les. work clothes, auto tires, supplies, etc.
To the average family this means say
ing of $lOO to $3.50 year. In addition to
this the certificate entities the owner to
the service Of the Community Store, which
of itself is worth more than the fee. This

is potent one. They see in the Commun-
ity Stores Of Iowa an illustration Of the
principle of cooperation which they are
adopting in the selling of their crops and
they know the principle to be sound They
are gradually eliminating the miqdleman,
who absorbs their profits, while the Com
munity Store submerges the middleman
for the benefit of the consumer.

THE ESSENCE Of COOPERATION

We are attaining wonderful results
through our unique plan Of cooperation
among the consumers Of a county and our
great buying and selling agency. We could
not put stop to extortionate retail prices
in the absence of the splendid cooper
alton enjoyed by our stores. 1t is this re-
markabe cooperation that enables us to
buy merchandise in very large quantities
at low prices impossible to the small
dealer. The average retail dealer cannot
buv goods on as small margins as we do.
