This is the season of the year when
the Philippines become the playground
season in Manila.
In 1908 the first Philippine carnival
was held on historic Wallace Field in
Manila in February, when the climate
of the Islands is at its best, and each
succeeding year there has been a larg-
er and more elaborate celebration.
The 1920, or Victory Carnival, will be
the greatest event of its sort ever held
anywhere in the Far East.
There are commercial and govern
ment exhibits in connection with the
carnival, and on no other occasion is it
possible to gain at once such a COM
prehensive idea of the production and

visitor at the carnival city.
In the evenings the carnival becomes
the center of Philippine and oriental
social activity. A huge open air audi
torium serves Tor the elaborate nightly
balls, and on Its mammoth floor thou
sands of couples swing together to the
strains of music furnished by the fa-
nous Constabulary and other military
bands Probably at no other place in
the world will one see an equally i'm

The people of Idaho Springs
will be interested to hear that the
University of Colorado has invited
the Idaho Springs High School to
become a member of the North

best universities, colleges and high
schools in the Middle West and

ton our high school graduates
will be accepted by all colleges
and universities in the United
States without examination, ex-
cepting a few of the large Eastern

to the bottom of the list with the
state university. Now they are

UNCLE TED'S BED TIME
STORIES
"No Red Without the
White and Blue

"Uncle Ted" SAID Jack, Il have
to write something for school about
the American flag and | know you
can tell me all about it. Will your
"Yes. Jack" answered his Uncle.
II could tell you a long story
about the the history of our
flag but | believe what will be
still better, is to tell you what our
flag stands for and how certain
people are trying to tearitdown and
place another in its stead. First
/ will tell you about how our flag
came into being. The American
Flag was born on June IA, l777,
about one year after the first rep
resentatiyes of the United States
of America had pledged to support
+ha Dee' l4ition Of Independence,
if necessary with their lives. The
creation of this first flag, which
COu Idlutd Tie pdHiC II iiuiiioti VI ltNt
and white stripes as it contains
today, that is thirteen for the orig
inal states but different only in
that the stars were arranged in Il
circle. was made the subject of a
resolution in the Continental Con
gress. The Committee of the
Continental Congress which hand
the work now handled by our
Naval Affairs Committee was
known as the Marine Committee.
1t was from this committee the
resolution proclaiming the Stars
and Stripes was reported. Tqgive
20. idea What chat seso
...s..44 contained / will read it to
you.
Resolved, that the Marine
Committee be empowered to give
such directions respecting the Con
tinental ships of war in the river
Delaware as they think proper in
case the enemy succeed in their
attempts on said river
Resolved, that the flag of
the thirteen United States be
thirteen stripes, alternate red
and white: that the union be
thirteen stars, white in blue field
representing a new constellation
There is more to the resolu-
tion but this is the part which
applies directly to the flag
What do the colors in our flag
mean?" asked Ruth who had be-
come greatly interested.
First of all, Ruth, our flag
stands for liberty. When you
look at it you should not just see
the colors which it contains and
the design which is SO beautiful
but you should see the entire ma
ton. The American flag has never
stood for castles and kings and
dictators. 1t stands as a protection
to all loyal citizens, and as an
invitation to the oppressed of
other nations to join us and come
under the protection of its folds.
The colors have real meaning.
The red stands for courage, the
white for purity and the blue for
loyalty, truth and justice. The
star signifies dominion. While we
are on the subject Of the colors I
will show you what difference
color can make when it stands for
something wrong instead of some
thing right. AS [ just told you
the red in Old Glory is forcourage,
courage to stand for those things
which are right. To keep the
principles upon which our govern
ment was founded from being sup
planted by dictators and foes of
liberty and justice. Our fore
fathers, the men who started our
government, signed the Declara-
ton of Independence, because
they saw that this country could
not go ahead under the dictation
and tyranny of King George who
