The instrument was
discovered by Peruvian
excavators after it had
been buried for many
centuries IN the ruins
of the main palace Of
Chan Chan, the capital
of the Chimus.
The Chimu telephone
consists Of two speak

made out Of the ncCks
OF gourds. At the mar
rover end of each tube
is a tight little drum,
a counterpart of the

In the center of this
drum a twisted cord Of
cotton Is pulled through
a tiny hole and fastened
by means of a knot.

feet long and connected
the apartment Of the

DEDICATION OF SERVICE FLAG
BY John l.. Blackboard

To-Day we dedicate this service
flag of So stars to our 63 young
men and young women who valiant
Nv help to man the battlefronts and
life lines of the globe, that Amer
lea may achieve victory in this,
another world war 1t is more than
fitting that we honor them-men
who struggled in the miasmic jungle
hell of Bataan: men who faced the
treacherous Jap through the black,
malaria nights of Guadalcanal, men
who stride on wings Of steel over
the snoW-capped roofs of the world,
and men and women who press
back Hitler's Unsuitable hordes
across North Africa and the stra-
tegic Mediterranean. These brave
deeds will forever honor them. But
this symbol Of their rvice will at
tain its real significance, or lack of
it, for what we keep and hold in our
hearts.
We have seen every advantage OF
our late, hard won victory for de-
mocracy. for freedom, and for safety
of our homeland melt away and
vanish in less than IS short years.
Will we again be so spendthrift
and careless of another victory
Will these young soldiers bloody
sacrifices avail for no longer than

that? Will We follow our pleas
ures and ambitions, utterly forget
ting what they have won2 Will we
again be deluded by subtle propa-
gandists mounting of peace while
preparing for war; and will we once
more fail to make America inn
pregnable while about us greedy
peoples and tyrants march toward
another conflict?
For a quarter of century Amer
lea practiced good will toward all
the peoples of the world By now,
we surely have learned that it is
not enough merely to believe in
justice, in liberty, and in democracy.
They must be constantly guarded
and upheld 1t is recognized that
America should do her full part
in building a world peace. But We
Shall have failed miserably in our
dedication of this, and every Amer
lean service flag if again we so
gamble with our country's fate that
our soldiers and sailors must battle
in hopeless defense, as they did at
Wake Island and at Bataan
Every single achievement OF
which America is proud, must, in
the end, be credited to those men
whose loyal arms created and pre-
served this nation. We shall strive
for better world; but every true
analysis of history proves that nc
country ever existed longer than
there were sufficient fighting men
sufficiently armed, to defend it
Yet, during these past years of g
false peace, we have tolerated anc
harbored those who repeatedly
questioned the value of America
victories for freedom and for -oul
way of life, and who cynicall5
limited at the gullibility of the brave
men who won them. The motive
of some of these slanderers, We
well know was sinister. That of 9TH
ers represented the instability o
many, whose minds never GRASP
reality.
But today as loyal citizens, dedi
eating symbol sacred to Ameri
can soldiers who are now fighting
toiling and dying in arms, we mus
likewise dedicate ourselves to pre-
serving the fruits of their victories
This we must do throughout future
periods of peace, as well as honor
ing them during the interims 0
war;
To effectively promote peace, w
must never again succumb to tina
| sentimentality that leaves us LIN
armed to face its foes. Only thel
can we truly say we dedicate thi
flag, matching their faith in us, b,
our faith in them.

AT the recent meeting of the Lib

and to our country. both when peace
comes as well as now, it is pub
lished below as a favor both to
those who heard it when first given
and to all those who can profit by
