CANNON JUNKED TO MAKE WAY FOR FLAGPOLE

The small brass cannon that has, almost since the present court house was built, stood guard over the south east corner of the lot and advised young Americans with a penchant for seeing the world to join the navy, was removed from it's foun- datiOn Thursday afternoon and no longer points menacing barrel to- ward the cigar store across the street.
 The space is needed for a new flagpole which the board of revenue is to erect at the, suggestion of the American Legion. In the past it has been the custom to fly the na- tional emblem from the topmost tip of the court house steeple; but it was hard to get to. and often, through oversight, remained exposed to the weather day and night. Whenever it became so tattered that it had to be replaced, the board of revenue had to spend considerable sum to employ steeple-jack to ad- just 1t properly.
 Lieut.. o. R. Crandall of the navy has promsied detachment of sailors to run up the flag in the morning and haul it down in the afternoon at sunset, in keeping with the rules of flag etiquette. e
 The fate of the brass cannon has not yet been decideds Meanwhile it is lying ignominously on the ground.
