WHAT rs THE MATTER?

End YOU hang out a flag today? If not. why not?
IL 1t might be interesting to make a canvass OF
the city and jt down the various reasons ohered
bv&the citizens for non-observance of Flag Day.
was it too much trouble to get out the flag and
put it up? DID the householder forget that 1t was
Flag Day? or did the family not own a flag? Il
is a solemn fact that every American family ought
to fly the American flag on Flag Day, there
should be no exceptions, and no excuses. June IA
should be observed as religiously as July 4 The
difficulty must be largely a matter OF lack OF ecu
cation. Americans have not been educated 60 De
demonstratiyely patriotic.
There is no question of the PATRIOTISM Q / the
families whose homes displayed no flag today, that
is in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, there
would be no possibility of question. Some OF the
fagless homes sent their sons. to war Willingly ana
freelv for the flag and the things for which it
stands. Some of them have even watched a nag
draped casket pass. over their threshold, and there
is no more supreme test of patriotism than TINS.
1t is solely-that the American public nave never
been taught to give outward sign o. ohe u 'nen
deepest emotions.
This should be corrected in the: training Of the
next generation. It should be, and it is recognized
in the schools today, and the children now being
educated for their life work are being impressed
with the necessity for an outward display of their
love for the flag and the reverence and veneratlon
they truly have for it.
The American attitude deceves and puzzles for
eigners. They take it that the American mas
scant love for his flag and must therefore be in
different about the principals and Ideals II rep
resents. They get the surprise OF their nVes VIII
they see an American aroused! The white not
ferver for the flag and its institutions fairly dazes

for spread eagle occasions, andSdrawn 4entlrely the
wrong conclusions therefrom. a spotlessiy clean

Miss Maude Royden in Women at the
Worlds Crossroads" (Woman's Press)
yearns for a more humane humanity"
and thinks that women might contribute
to this end because the maternal responsi
biities have stimulated their altruism. The
experience of the last war when women
were as eager for military achievements
as men and even participated in battle has
apparently made little impression on Miss
Royden. She sees the world as having
reached crisis, headed straight for heaven
or hell and implores women leaders with
spiritual vision" to help remake civili-
zation.
The book is a collection of addresses
made by the woman preacher at the last
National Convention of the Young
Women's Christian Association. Hence, it
is necessarily fragmentary and disjointed
and is tinged with the moralizing tone of
the sermonizer.
In her chapter on "Woman's Service
to Theology" the author bases her de-
fence of women ministers on the ground
that "in distinction of class or sex there
is no authority to be derived from Christ" "
She also quotes many references from the
gospels to prove that Jesus appeared both
to men and women. from which we may
imply that Jesus. unlike Ambassador Har-
vey, believed women possessed souls.
The last address on Love, the Fulfilling
of the Law" reveals fine spiritual feeling
and discernment. Miss Royden sees love
as the only creative power. Those who
are filed with hatred are useless"
When feminists get too proud of their
much boasted achievements it is well for
them to remember Jeanne dare who,
centuries ago, became symbol of courage
and power. Perhaps for this reason
