YOUR FLAG AND MY FLAG.
Your flag, and my flag,
And how it flies today,
In your land and my land,
And half a world away!
Rose-red, and blood-red,
The stripes forever gleam;
Snow-white and soul-white—
The good forefather's dream;
Sky blue and true blue, with stars
to gleam aright—
The gloried guidon of the day- a
shelter through the night.
Your flag, and my flag,
To every star and stripe
The drums beat as hearts beat
And lifers shrilly pipe!
Y'our flag, and my flag—
A blessing in the sky;
Your hope, and my hope—
It never hid a lie!
Home land and far land, and half
the world around,
Old Glory hears our glad salute,
and ripples to the sound!
Ycur flag, and my flag!
And, oh, how much it holds;
Your land and my land—
Secure within its folds!
Y'our heart and my heart
Beats quicker at the sight!
Sur. kissed and wind j?«d-r-
Red and blue and white!
The one flag, the great flag, the
flag for me and you—
Glorified all else beside—the red
and white and blue!
—Wilbur D. Nesbit.

Perfect Day
a day of big attainments — begins with a real
breakfast. Nothing puts you in finer fettle—gives
you a better foundation for real work and acconv
plishment than abreakfastofSupreme Hamor Bacon
and Eggs. You 11 need no Big Ben to call you when
either starts spluttering in the pan. Just a whiff of
their incenseand you're up with appetite all primed.
Supreme Ham and Bacon are the extra-quality
kind— the meat of selected, young Government'
inspected porkers — cured as only Morris can.
And every Morris Supreme Ham and piece of
Morris Supreme Bacon must meet the Morris
Supreme Test. They're always dependable.
