A MEMORABLE *FLAG TRIBUTE: — One ot the best thoughts about our flag—a thought particularly timely with tlie approach of Decoration Day, May 30th ami Flag Day, June 14th—came from Franknn K. Lane. The late secretary of the interior brought from his newspaper work a mastery of clear and plepsing expression which lifted his addresses out of the rut of the perfunctory and commonplace. With him the keynote of writing was to make the subject interesting. His was no disposition to spout mere phrases and platitudes. Moreover, he was a man of vision. Both as an example of literary value and soundness of thinking, his talk at a flag day celebration deserves to live in popular memory. He brought the nation's standard close to heart and mind, while at the same time broadening with informative strokes the outlook ot life and its meaning as lived nnUer freedom's ensign. Lane's flag reminded ns that however beneticient the services render ed by the greatest statesman, financier or captain of industry, such acts loom no larger on it than “the struggle which the boy in Georgia is mat-, ing to win the corn club prize this summer.'’

“Congress spoke a word which will open the door of Alaska, but a mother in Michigan worked from sunrise until far into the night to give her boy an education. She, too. is making the flag." “But," 1 said, “these people are only working." Then from the flag: "Let me tell you who J am. The work we do is the making ot the real flag. I am not the flag, not at all. 1 am but its shadow. I am whatever you make me, nothing more. I am your belief in yourself, your dream of what a people may become. I am all that you hope to be and have the courage to try for. lam the day's work of the weakeA man

and the largest dream of the most daring. 1 am the constitution and the courts, the statutes and statute makers, soldier and dreadnaught, drayman and street sweep, cook. , counselor and clerk. '“lem the dutch of an* idea and the reasoned purpose of resolution. 1 am what you make me. I swing before your eyes as a bright gleam of color, a symbol of yourself, the pictured suggestion of that big thing which makes this nation. My stars and my stripes are your dreams and your labors. They are bright with cheer, brilliant with courage, firm with faith, because you have made them so out of your hearts, for you are the makers of the flag." Actual peace in Europe seems nearer today than for months and if the representatives of the United States would take necessary steps the troubles could soon be disposed of and the citizens of the world get down to the real business of reconstruction. About the first thing that ought to be done is to withdraw Col. Harvey from England, before he makes any more of his humorous outbursts. A lot of the five million men out of work, because of normalcy, have a chance to slip into complete uncon-<

Assist the officials and employes of the city to provide better lighting by protecting the bulbs, globes and other property. It is a serious crime to destroy property and if the proper interest is shown, there can be but one result—the arrest of those who do this. A few examples will stop the work of those who thus entertain themselves and will assure better service in the way of lights. Complaints are now being offered because it costs so much more to secure a divorce now than before the war. Is . this to be classed as a luxury? .

"I just hate to think of how I suffered all those years. Why. at times I had such severe attacks of indigestion 1 simply broke down and cried. The cramps and pains were almost unbearable, and it seemed sometimes like 1 was being smothered to death. “1 was almost afraid to eat. and I became so weak that at times I could hardly stand up. Every day that came 1 had a bursting headache, and 1 thought sometimes it would drive me distracted. Often 1 became so dizzy and fainty I almost fell over and I was so discouraged and dishearled 1 didn't ‘think 1 would ever be well anymore. "But it was a lucky day for mo when I began taking Tarflac. It has been a blessing I can never forget and I am overjoyed at the way it has restored my health and built me up so wonderfully. I eat anything and everything I wish and it all digests perfectly. It certainly is grand to be feeling so well ami strong again, and I just wish I could tell how thankful 1 fee! to Tanlac.”

WOMEN HELP IN MOVE. / New York, May 27. —At a luncheon given by Mrs. Douglas Robinson, sister of Theodore Roosevelt, to a large number of prominent club women, it was determined to make a concentrated effort by club women to assist the Woman’s Roosevelt Memorial Association, of 1 East 57th Street, to complete at once the restoration of Roosevelt House, the birthplace of Theodore Roosevelt. Said Mrs- Thomas G. Winter, President of the National Federation of Women’s Clubs, comprising over two million women. “I commend this movement to the General Federation and hope that each of its members will join the Woman’s Roosevelt Memorial Association. Millions of American women should be glad to contribute each a little to keep as a memorial of their eminent friend the birthplace of Theodore Roosevelt.” The cornerstone of Roosevelt House was laid January last byMajor General Leonard Wood. The structure itself will incorporate much of the material of the old Roosevelt mansion, which is now to be accurately reproduced. When finished, it will contain the bedstead in which Theodore Roosevelt was born together with other of the original furnishings now in possession of the Roosevelt family. About $150,000 additional is needed for the work of restoration. • •<._ - ■ -- - CHOIR PRACTICE.
