SCHLEY COUNTY'S
INDIGNATION,

A WORTHY negro farmer, who
through his thrift, honesty and in
telligence and the application OF
those virtues which the white man
teaches the members of his race make
good citizens and which all of them
should practice, has been killed by
a mob in Schley county, seemingly
without provocation, and the best
people of the community, who appear
to be vastly in the majority, are up
in arms, demanding that the outrage
be punished.
But at the outset apparently they
have run up against serious snag.
After coroner's jury had made ac-
cusations upon evidence heard, and
warrants had been placed in the pos
session of the county sheriff, that Of
ficer, according to popular belief sup
ported by the record of net results
achieved by him, has been anything
but diligent in the performance OF
his duty. And so indignant has the
community become that efforts are
to be made to have the sheriff oustcd
from office by the governor, who
alone holds that power.
Evidently there is something rot
ten about the situation in Schley.
Somewhere the machinery of justice
is jumping cogs. For results were
not attained when they could have
been attained and the accused men
have not been rounded up, but rath-
er have been given the opportunity
to make their getaway, except two
wounded men.
The Times-Recorder does not in
tend here to reflect any conclusion
as to the. guilt or innocence of the
men accused of this crime; but it is
merely attempting to point out that
the names of the men alleged to have
been involved have been duly report
ed and warrants placed in the hands
of the sheriff for service, and that
because of his negligence, either will
ful or through sheer inefficiency. has
permitted men to escape from under
his very nose when all he would have
had to do would have been to Law
his hands on them and arrest them.
But the accused men likely will
be caught eventually. If the sheriff
does not locate them they probably
will drift home one by one to face
the music, unless they know and feel
that the circumstances are such and
the evidence likely to be SO con.
elusive that they will find it too dan
porous to stand trial voluntarily.
The Times-Recorder believes the
good people of Schley county are
justified in their indignation, and thai
trey are to be commended upon theil
lnslstence that these men be arrested
and brought to trial, there to estab
lsh their justification for the kill
ing of viii Jones, if there be any
Or the guilt or innocence of this ap
parently atrocious crime. The eyes

IF you have ever had the "fiu''
you know that for several years aft
erwards, you are far more suscep-
tible to colds and coughs. Influenza
with it's severe draining of vital re-
sources leaves the respiratory or

power of resistance and you are apt
to be sneezing and coughing at every
change of weather unless you take
precautionary measures.
At the very first symptom of a

pectorant. Get the best of that cold

a sample, whereupOn she set to work and completed flag which was ap- proved. This was the flag that was finally adopted by congress, and on June II, 17TT, congress entered on it's journal an official indorsement of the Stars and Stripes in resolution word- ed as follows:
 "Resolved, That the flag of the United States be 13 stripes. alternate 13 stars white in blue field. repre- senting a new constellation"
 The resolution says nothing about the arrangement of the stars in the field.
 The ensign of the United States re- mained the same as fixed by the reSo- luton of June II, TIT, until 1195, when Vermont and Kentucky had been admitted to the Union, and on January 13, 1794, congress passed the following act.
 "rhat from and after the first day of May, 1795, the flag of the United States be 15 stripes alternate red and "HHe, tItul tlle lllpl Ut lc Stul ~ white in blue field"
 In 1918, at the suggestion of sam uel C. Reid, the original l3 stripes were restored and congress voted to add q new star on the Fourth of July succeeding the admission of each new state.
 Significance of Symbols.
 When white flag staff or pole Is set up on village green" says Mir. Guthrie, "it will doubtless show at the top on golden ball the American eagte,, also golden, Tapping his wide wings, as if just alighting or about to exult in heavenward flight. This eagle is the very prime symbol of our de fensive and aspiring Union. It is the bird or angel of our peace, our winged Victory, our Phoenix, the point of con \Hct and the vehicle of grace in our on a blue tieid, star strewn, 1t Is the emblem of the executive head of the nation"
 In his right talon our eagle clutches the olive branch. with l3 green leaves and 13 berries, the leaves that are the show of life and the berries that are the fruit--that symbol itself carrying us back to the olive twig borne by the dove of Noah. This olive branch pro- claims our constant purpose-a posi- tive creative peace.
 Now, in the left talon of our her aldc eagle are clutched the 13 arrows which signify the threatening thunder bolts. As. MT. Guthrie explains it.
The Cordova daily times., 1922-07-01

The flag is the emblem of our unity. our power, our purpose as a nation. It speaks to us of the past. It has wit messed a great history. Since it's off cial adoption on June IA, TIT, it has been associated with whatever patr- Otic idea we worship and is the sym bol of the great faith to which we are born.
 "AS long as men are men that flag chosen on June IA, 1777. is well chosen. 1t has meaning, a message, a com mand," says Rev. William Norman Guthrie, who has written book, "The Religion of Old Glory" to explain the meaning and message of Americas 's flag to the nations of the world.
 The flag of the United States came into being more deliberately and con sciously than other flags. such as that of England, or France, or Spain. It was chosen after many popular ex- periments had been made. officially and nn0fiicialiy, on sea and land.
 inception of the Flag.
 The story of the actual making. of ahe first American flag as we know it is not touched on by Mir Guthrie. Quitting all minor particulars. the main points are these:
 Washington, accompanied by two gentlemen, called one day in l776 at the little upholstery shop In Arch street, Philadelphia, where Mrs. Betsy Ross was carrying on business, and asked her if she could make il flag. She said that she had never made one. but that she could try. They there upon produced a design rather roughly drawn She examined the design and noticing that the stars were siX-point- ed, suggested that they be made with five points, showing them how a five pointed star could be made with q single clip of pthe scissors.
 Design Approved by Congress.
 General Washington then and there changed the sketch. and soon after a coloYed design by d painter named Will liam Barrett was sent to Mrs. Ross as
