The new national flag bearing fortyeight stars, emblematic of all the states, including the recently Arizona and New Mexico, was flung from all federal structures in the country and from the American navy throughout the world Thursday. Thirteen stars only wifi be permitted in the blue square of the flags that are less than five feet wide, to avoid overcrowding.

A few weeks later this same Star began making eyes at Roosevelt and still later while asserting continued confidence in President Taft declared for Roosevelt as the aVailable vote-getting candidate. And now, less tb»u three months after its first eulogistic discussion of President Taft it making headliners of Louie Ludlow’s third party slush. For fickle affectionsTThe Star is the political mermaid of the century. To find a buyer for your property, try a classified adv. in this paper. * • * I-.:
