Canada TO Develop Mussel.

Canada is about to make capita!
out of a substitute for the oyster
which is found along the Atlantic
coast, chiefly in New Brunswick. 1t
is a mussel which is by no means a
new article Of diet to the people OF
Canada. Its delicacy of flavor >ano
high food value have been much ad'
vertised since the establishment OF
government investigation and expert
ment. A survey of the mussel beds OF
the st. Croix river, which constitutes
the boundary between New bruins
wick and Maine, mas occupied the at
tentjon OF scientist Of the council
for three years, and it is expected
that this year will see the satlsfac-
tory conclusion of the research. The
sea muSSel cannot be produced IN
fresh water, so that there is no pos
sibili,y of developing an industry I'D
the Great Lakes. 1t is believed that
there are possibilities, however, of the
DEVELOPMENT of freSh-water CLANS
there in the near future.

Americas Unknown Soldier
Requiescat in Pace.
BY W. H. CLAGETT.

Sleep on in peace, my unknown soldier.
brave!
A nation touched by valiant deeds
displayed
Today in reverence gathers at your
grave,
Al tribute to the sacrifice you made
And while you sleep a torn and bleed
ing world,
Distorted, crazed and weary OF the
strife,
In saneness comes with flags of truce
unfurled,
To arbitrate in conference for its
life.
God grant the spirit Of those such
as you,
Who gave their all that freer men
might live,
Will guide the rulings OF the con-
claye through,
And cause the most self-centered
there to give!
Then, in such case, those peoples oo"eo
in grief,
Disccnsolate of happiness again,
Will rise once more, convinced IN
their belief
That neither He nor you have oled
in vain!

He Leads Today.

Since first this continent emerged
From recordless abyss,
And hill and valley welcomed man
To test Of pain and bliss,
America has never seen
"A funeral like this.
A solemn hush pervades the land;
No more the anvil rings;
The loom its drowsy tune has lost
Among the silent strings.
While traffic reins his iron steed
And folds his cable wings.
Tears and eternal love for thee.
Thou nameless wreck OF clay;
The Great Republic brings wreath
OF rosemary and bay.
And kindred Of the martyred dead
Shall weep for thee today.
Above the tumult and the storm.
The noxious fume and name.
The spirit rose to realms serene,
The acme bound Of fame
He gave his country most who died
For her and lost his name.
BY this sad nag that sways in air
For all thy comrades slain,
BY crosses that the world must bear,
When hate and carnage reign,
Above thy hallowed bier we swear
Thou hast not died in vain.
Ry Ali the soldier Qea0 VINO steep
In mountain, field or .glen,
BY all the grief and pain and tears
Wrune from the sons of men.
Above this spoil Of arms we swear
at shall not be again."
In council soon will statesmen sit.
To crown the hope sublime.
To chain the ruthless god Of war.
To stay the waste and crime,
To heed the plea of earth-nor fail
As traitors to their time.
For 10! this hero lives and leads
A myriad array; 1
This captain of the quick and dead
No mortal night shall stay.
For In his knightly hand he bears
The olive branch today.

The Flags of Other Nations.

To the Editor OF Ihe star:
In displaying the flags of other ma
tions mistakes are frequently made
in their positions, the one most often
occurring being that of hanging the
Union Jack" (more properly called
the great union") of Great Britain
upside down.
To the ordinary observer the differ
ence is hardly distinguishable, but TO
one who knows it is as if the flag
of our country was hung with the
starry canton underneath.
Another error is common to such
flags as bear a shield of any design
in the center. Such flags are some
times hung with the pointed end
Of the shield uppermost.
The rule governing the position Of
the Union Jack" is simple when
known. The diagonal stripes, which
constitute the combined crosses OF
st. Andrew and st. Patrick, are, II
the flag Is correctly made. mar

of red and a broad white as wide as
the combined width OF the first TWO.
This broad white must be uppermost
in the portion of the flag known as
the hoist, which is. Of course. the end

The flag of China must be hung
with red stripe uppermost; that or

it is hung, except that the round red
