 AM hail to our glorious ensign Courage to the heart and strength to the hand, to which in all time 1t shall he intrusted May it ever wave in ironor. in unsullied glory and patriotic hope on the dome of the capitol, on the country's stronghold on the ens tented plain, on the w2ve-rocked top mast, Wherever on the earth's sur face the eye of the American shall hehold it, may he have reason to bless it, On whatever spot 1t is planted. there may freedom have n foothold, humanity brave champion and rell- zion an altar Though stained with blood in a righteous cause, may it nev- CT in any cause be stained With shame
 Alike when its gorgeous folds shall wanton in lazy holiday triumphs on the summer breeze and it's tattered fragments he dimly seen through the clouds of war may it be the joy and pride of the American heart, First raised in the cause of right and liber- ty, in that cause alone may it fpyever spread out it's streaming blazonry to the battle and the storm, Having been borne victoriously across the con tinent and on every sea, may virtue and freedom and peace forever follow where it leads the way"
 With Henry Ward Beecher at n later date, they can stand beside the graves of their dead and take com fort from the truths that an enlarged vision brings within their grasp:
 "Oh, tell me not that they are dead that generous, that airy army of invisible heroes. They hover as a cloud If witnesses above this nation. Are they dead that yet speak louder than we can speak, and a more ami verSal language? Are they dead that yet act? Are they dead that yet move upon society and inspire Inc people with nobler motives anu more heroic patriotism? Ye that mourn, let gladneSS mingle with your tears.

MEMORY TREES TO SOLDIERS
Plan Proposed to Adorn American Highways Meets With General Ap-
 provaI Throughout Country.

To plant tree along the great new American highways in honor of every United States soldier, sailor and ma rine in the World war. is a proposal which has met with the hearty sup port of the Ameican Legion, c. A. R., Gold Star Mothers and other patriotic organizations. A permanent marker would be placed on each tree, bear ing the name of one veteran and his organization, with no indication of rank. A separate inscription would be placed on the trees representing those who died.
 Full success of the project means that the great Lincoln highway from New York to San Francisco and the Dixie highway from Chicago to Flor ida will be fringed with shade trees. President Harding has expressed his approval of the plan and the United States forestry bureau has promised its aid

 And they can proudly prophecy with the eloquent Henry Armitt Brown. whose death at thirty-four was so great loss to the Philadelphia bar of n generation ago. in words which he used in n centennial oratioa com memorative of the assembling of tn. first Continental congress tn Carpen- ter's hall;
 "fhe American Union has endured hundred years Here on the thres- hold of the future the voice of human ity shall not plead to us In vain. There shall be darkness in the days to come danger for our courage, temptation for our virtue, doubt for our faith. suffering for our fortitude.

COUNTRY IS BEING STRIPPED OF MEN FOR WAR WITH
 THE TURKS.
FINAL ARRANGEMENTS MADE
Declines Offer of France, Great Britain and Italy To Mediate-Mo- bilize Greek-Ame ricans Holding
 Citizenship Papers.

Athens.-The note of Greece declin. ing the offer of France, Great Britain and Italy to mediate in the trouble between the Turks and the Greeks in Asia Minor says Greece finds herself in a position in which military inter. ests are to guide her conduct and her decision. An abandonment of the of. fensiye against the Turks. would com promise and prejudice the position of Greece and give courage to the Turks.
 The note adds that Greece will be ready to hear concrete proposals from the allies during every phase of the operations and that she hopes the al. lies will obtain definite terms from the Turks
 Having declined the allies offer, Greece felt herself free to give all her thoughts and energies to the long planned offensive throughout the Turkish Nationalists. There is a feel ing of confidence throughout the coun. try that Greek arms will win the in itial victory, and the people are de- bending on this to strengthen the in teruational position of Greece and ob- tain from the powers hettcrs terms of settlement in the event of renewal of peace parleys

 Veterans of five wars participated in the ceremonies.

 Our banner still defiance filings To sceptered power and may not rest until All peoples and all lands alike are free From threat of princes and their brood
 of tyranny.
 None the less, many of the old ex- hortations still ring true. To the end of time Americans can repeat the words uttered by Daniel Webster. not many months before his death, when the republic completed its seventy fifth year and the great orator entered on his seventleth:
 This anniversary animates and gladdens and unites all American hearts. On other days Of the year we may be party men, indulglng in controversies more or less important to the public good; We may have likes and disiikes, and we may maintain our political differences often with warm and sometimes with angry feelings.

A
 interest w h ic h in that paper has survived the occasion upon which it was issued, the interest which is of every age and every cline, the interest which quickens with the lapse of years, spreads as it grows old, and brightens as it recedes, is in the principles which 1t proclaims. It was the first solemn declaration by nation of the on- ly legitimate foundation of civil government. It was the cornerstone of a new fabric, destined to cover the surface of the globe. It demolished at a stroke the lawfulness of all govern ments founded upon con- quest. It swept away all the rubbish of accumulat- ed centuries of servitude. It announced in practical form to the world the tram scendent truth of theS.n- alienable sovereignty of the people. It proved that the social compact was no fgment of the imagina- ton, but a real, solid, and sacred bond of the social union.-J O h n Quincy Adams.
