^ ^s&utAor of
"Tour Flag and My Flag"
Mow did we maKe tHe dag?
By rule?
By compass, and square, and line?
WitH pattern,and thvread.and the sempster’s tool
To follow the plain design?
Was it only the lore that the draftsmen Knew
That gave us the red, and the white, and blue'
How did we maKe the flag?
Not all
By measuring stitch and seam;
For part of rt came from a country call
And part of it is a dream -
Is a vision that led brave souls ar ight.
And gave us the red, and the blue, and white
How did we maKe the flag?
In peace
We fashioned it fold on folds
In war it was blend with the grim caprice
The drums in their summons rolled.
’Twas the courage aliKe of the quicK and dead
That gave us the blue, and the white, and red.
How did we maKe the flag?
’Twas thus
It came to its grace and worths
Through all that is good in the souls of us
The banner has had its birth;
’Twas the holier strength of the purpose true
That gave us the red, and the white, and blue
Thus have we made the flag?
Ah, no!
By colors that will not fade,
By sinuous sweep and by deathless glow,
’Tis us that the flag has made!
And it whispers today to each star-told state:
“You must hold me high and must Keep me great !*

For the Plaintiff.
The Marion Machine company has
many workmen, among whom are
three brothers, “Doc” Cook, and his
two brothers all doctor sick autos. In
line with the policy of this company
to exhibit an interest in the welfare
of their men, encouragement to own
a home is always given each em-
ploye. The rest of the short story
is that when W. L Moore told “Doc”
the advantages of buying now, all
three brothers took homes adjoining,
being the property formerly owned
by Louie Meyer, south of the Ice
plant. To supply the third borne for
this trio it was necessary to move in
a five-room house, but this is being
done now.
Mr. Moore also reports the sale of
the Howard Hagan home to John H.
Moore.

There is considerable complaint
about the way some of our officers
are holding up people who pass
through this county, one of the mis-
takes made in the law passed last
winter, confiscating the autos caught
in transportation, seems to have been
the divvy. We believe tn the enforce-
ment of law, but if the little reward
is going to set men crazy to capture
cars to the point of endangering our
citizens then it is time to call a halt.
