Monmouth county in New Jersey

sary of the Battle Of Monmouth. This
severe and critical engagement of the
Revolution was re-enacted in a pag-
cant which showed how the fight was
waged from Monmouth Courthouse to
Old Tennent, and also the heroic
part played that day by Molly Pitcher,
writes May w. Mount in the New
York Times.
The victory of Monmouth strength
ened the morale Of the army, worn
by their winter at Valley Forge, and
encouraged the Colonies in their
struggle. 1t made their commander In
chief more heroic than ever as they
pictured him, constantly exposed to
fire, rallying his troops.
In dead, wounded and missing the
British lost 1862 and the Americans
$50. Included among these were four
British and eight American officers /;
fifty-nine British and many Americans
died Of fatigue and sunstroke. The
banks of Molly Pitchers brook were
strewn with dead and wounded SOL
diers who had dragged themselves to
the water.
The British dead and not a few Of
the Americans were buried on the
field.
At some period after the War Of
the Revolution the village of Mon

What do you see when the flag goes
by?
Just banner of red and white and

Just patch of gay color against the
sky?
What does it mean to you?
Perhaps a vision comes of Betsy
Ross
Red cheeks aflame to meet her
lands appeal,
White, skillful fingers stitching pa
tiently.
And blue eyes flashing with an
ardent zeal.
To some the red is martyred Presi-
dents blood;
The white, Potomac's city, fair to
view,
Across the stream from Arlington
where sleep
In honored peace the men who bore
the blue.
And some will see the peoples flam-
ing red
Beneath blue skies that lie across
the sea,
And brave young souls made white
by sacrifice.
The sacrifice by which world is
free.

Would you have thought it? A

from the bottom up. He despaired
of making any progress, but finally
the company offered him a salary of
$4,000 year if he could think of at
least one money-saving scheme an

thought he suggested that the final

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
THEME ANNOUNCED

Soul" is the subject of the les
son sermon in all Churches of
Christ, Scientist, Sunday, Feb. IS.
Among citations which comprise
the lesSon-sern1on is the following
from the Bible:
And as Jesus passed by. he saw a man
which was blind from his birth. And his
disciples asked him. saying Master. who
did sin. this man. or his parents. that
he was born blind? Jesus answered,
neither hath this man sinned. nor his
parents: but that the works Of God should
be made manifest In him. must work
the works Of him that sent me. while 1t is
day: the night cometh, when no man can
work. John 9:1-4.

export trade of all the principal
powers on earth combined.
These more backward neighbors,
of course, are not suddenly going
to step out and buy things on the
Canadian scale. It will be long
time before they get anywhere near
such point.
But if they are helped on IN
every way possible, instead Of held
back, as they unquestionably have
been, they will make rapid progress.
For every dollar their buying power
increases, $1,50O,oOO,000 will be
added to world trade.
Japan has shown what can be
done.
Japan Sets Example
In 1870, right after she emerged
from feudalism and opened her
doors to commerce, she imported
only $16,O00,00G worth of goods from
abroad.
Twenty years later she was i'm
porting $143,000,00O worth per an
mum. BY 1900 her foreign purchases
jumped to 100000, and since
1920 they have averaged well above
81, 0Oc 600, 900 year.
China now is struggling to get
ahead. She is moving heaven and
earth to improve her living stand
ards. Yet, instead of eager hands
outstretched to help her, she is en-
countering obstacles every inch of
the way,
India, with her 320,0o000O sub
jects, would offer a similarly rich
market for the goods of trade
hungry world were she to equal
Japan's record advancement.
Victims of Own Stupidity
In the past, inperialistic powers
stupidity have exploited the weaker
races. They have held down wages,
opposed movements to better mass
conditions and generally contrived
to block progres%deaf, dumb and
blind to the fact that higher stand
ards Of living and bigger buying
power are synonymous.
4lICy have OFC44OOhCQ OllC 1dCO
that instead of loin cloths these
people would buy good clothes and
shoes. Instead of OK carts there
would be a market for railroad
irons, locomotives and steel bridges.
Instead of wheelbarrowS there would
be a demand for automobiles.
Imperia1istic exploitation must
go if buying power is to keep pace
with production. In its place the
great powers must adopt policies de-
signed to help the more backward
people help themselves.
Look to America
No people on earth, for that mat
ter, whatever their nationality, have
anything like reached the place
where their standard of living
can not be improved. And for every
dollar the earth's population ad-
vanceS 100000 900 will be added
to trade.
Intelligent effort in this direction,
in both domestic and foreign policies
on the part of the powers, would
Danish the bugaboo of overproduc-
ton and forever put an end to the
scandal Of breadlines.
Capitalism is on trial, some of the
worlds most conservative thinkers
candidly are warning. America in
| diSputably is the worlds leading
capitalistic power. AS such, the other
nations are looking to her for in
spiration and guidance.
