Oh. the great big Irishman,

size for parade use by the United States
army.
If there is to be any law at all on
this subject. it should be such as to
preclude such travesty as that at
tempted by the New Yorl, Socialists
1t is doubtful, however. that any real
good might be accomplished by law
of that kind. Forcing person to dis
play the flag OF his country when he
has no love for that country itself,
much less for its emblem, is like bestow-
ing upon him an honor which he does
not merit. 1t puts him in false posi-
ton he gets credit for sentiments which
he does not feel and will not entertain.
Patriotism is either inherent or nom
existent in any given individual. 1t cam
not be created by statute or mandate /;
statutes and mandates designed to create
patriotism are most likely to have the
opposite effect, exciting still further
whatever sense or lack of sense it is
that makes an unpatriotic person what
he is.
1t would seem that the flag and what
it stands for are too precious to be
entrusted to people who avowedly have
a contempt for such things. Instead
of reforming or even Furnishing such
people, laws or ordinances of the kind
invoked in New York on the occasion
of the Socialist meeting which displayed
no flag would more logically tend to
aggravate the disrespect which they are
designed to cure.

PATRIOTISM'S SHADOW

How big is this country's flag: That
question is not impertinent in the light
of an incident reported recently from
New York, although it may have a ridi-
culous sound like the old witticism
How long is stick"
Upon occasions calling for the mani
festation of patriotic sentiment, flags OF
various sizes are displayed from public
and private buildings. There arc flags
almost large enough to cover the front
of the cottages over which they are
raised. And there are miniature flags,
hardly larger than two-cent postage
stamp, decorating the lapels Of ,ncn's
coats.
But suppose it should be legally man
datory to display "thc flag at any and
all public meetings in this country.
What would the Size of Old Glory have
to be to insure literal compliance with
the law:
Some such law, it seems, obtains in
New York. That much is indicated by
the dispatch reporting the incident al
luded to, although the exact nature ard
requirements OF the law are not de-
scribed. Some Socialists were holding a
meeting, but they did not display the
American flag. Police authorities in
voked the law--or ordinancc--req,,ir-
ing the display of "the flag" at sucl,
meetings. and the Socialists undertook
to comply in the letter, but obviously
not in the spirit.
They "unfurlcd' the American flag
in miniature. The flag they displayed
was in size, travcsty upon the national
emblem. 1t had an area of 1 square
inch.
Had they, in reality complied with
the law? In the absence OF legal def.
milton of the flags size, they had. But
the municipal authorities were not sat
isficd, and one of the aldermen an
nounced his intention of drafting 4 meas
urc providing that the flag for public
display must be three feet wide by

THE SONG MY PADDLE SINGS.

West wind. blow from your prairie nest.
Blow from the mountains. blow from the west
The sail is idle, the sailor too;
o wind of the west, We wait for YOU
Blow, blow.
] have woocd YOU so,
But never favor you bcstow.
You rock your cradle the hills between,
But scorn TO notice my white latccn.
I stow the sail and unship the mast;
/ wooed you long, but my wooing's past;
My paddle will lull you into rest;
drowsy wind of drowsy west,
Sleep, sleep.
By your mountains steep,
Or down where the prairie grasses sweep,
Now fold in sIumbcr your laggard wing,
For soft is the song my paddle sings.
Be strong. paddle; be brave, canoe.
The reckless waves you must plunge into.
Reel, reel,
On your trembling keel,
But never fear my craft will feel.
We've raced the rapids; we're far ahead
Sway, sway.
As the bubbles spray.
And fall in tinklng tunes away.
And UP on the hills against the sky,
fir tree rocking its lullaby,
Swings, swings
Its emerald wings,
Swelling the song that ny paddle sings.

GRAND AND GLORIOUS"

After many days, San Antonio came
into her own again. She had i pleasant
Sunday. Agreeable days at the begin
ming of the week have been very scarce
of late. There have been, during the
last three months. one or two Sundays
that permitted excursions into the coun-
try. but none of them was free from
apprehension. At the time Ct starting
out in the morning there was no prom
Use that there would be 10 rain before
night. Other Sundays were pleasant
enough for few hours after sunrise
but went to the bad. metcorologically
speaking. before nightfall. Last week
generally fair was predicted on Sat-
urday for the succeeding thirty-siX hours
and we are prepared to argue that the
forecast produced a grand and glorious
feeling"
The last three months have been far
below the San Antonio average icr pleas
ant weather. In fact, there have been
very few pleasant days since the first OF
February. We were due TO have rain
i'll December and January but none
came. The weather during those two
months was delightful. 1t was the
brand OF climate that would render fam
Gus any spot in the world. However,
it came to an end about the close OF
January and since then there has been
another tale to tell.
For the last few weeks our disagree
able weather has been caused by storm
areas that came ZIP from Mexico. There
is no way Of forecasting anything from
that direction because the weather sta
tons of Mexico disappeared during the
various revolutions and now. there is
nobody in that part OF the world
who pays any attention 10 the weather
beyond taking himself ont Of the rain.
In consequence the United States Wealth
or Rurcau has no possible way OF telling
what will transpirc from that direction.
Therefore, we may have prediction of
fair weather that is properly based upon
conditions i'll the United States and it
may be completely destroyed by the
sudden appearance of storm area but
ting into the United States from the
south side OF the Rio Grande.
That has been ono source al the re-
cent long spell OF bad weather. An
other has been the general cusscdness
of the elements. On several occasions
there has been every prospect OF period
OF fair weather and, overnight storm
area would form TO the west of San
Antonio, out over New Mexico and
Arizona, and there the thing would hang
for days at time, bringing us clouds
and drizzles and rains and ":iuggy'
weather.
The main office of the Weather Bu-
reau at Washington predicts that this
part of the world will have good wealth
er for the greater part Of this week, but
along about the time when next Sun
days outing is being planned there may
be more OF the same old Sunday stuff
that we have been getting for so long.
1t is up to us to use the good weather
we have for by the time next Sunday
rolls around there may be no more OF it.

The mystic triangle shown above

been inscribed upon the mummy case
of an Egyptian pharoah. 1t is sup
posed to be the mystic sign of the
Egyptian deitics, Isis. Osiris and
Thoth. The triangle is equilateral.
and contains 16 smaller equilateral
triangles. The most remarkable
thing about it, however, is the fact
that the design may be drawn in one
continuous line, without lifting the
pencil from the paper. and without
going over any line twice. Can you
solve the problem:
Yesterdays answer:
Three skies can be made into the
number seven by writing them as
