What the Flag Means While we are told from time to time just how we jTiust hang the American flag, just when and how r we must raise or lower it on a pole and what emotions we must go through-in its presence, too little Attention is given to the meaning of the flag and /our flag worship. At last, however, we have on explanation of the flag's meaning from an authoritative source—at least from the one who ought to know most about it—the President of the United States. In his address to the members of the South Dakota Legislature, President Coolidge, speaking of the hills of his native Vermont and the hills of South Dakota, said: “Here as there we are under the same flag, and let me leave this thought with you: Any. one who has an occupation, or, as they say on the street, a job, no matter whether in industry, agriculture or commerce, that person may be assured that he has the best occupation or job of any one on earth. That is what the American flag means.” Somehow, that explanation of the flag doesn’t touch the spot. It stimulates no responsive thrill. It isn’t the meaning of the flag as given to us in childhood and held clear through to mature manhood and passed on to our children. Always the- appeal of the American flag—at least to us—has been spiritual rather than material. It was an appeal to the heart, not to the stomach. It seemed to symbolise our early impressions of the Declaration of Independence and the American Constitution—the Bill of Rights, freedom of speech and of conscience, civil and religious liberty—life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It seemed to us, and so it must have seemed to many others, that our worship of the American flag was a spiritual worship of all the blessings of liberty for which the founders of the Republic fought and ■ died that they might be secured for and passed on to succeeding generations of liberty-loving American citizens. And now we are told that what we worship, the thing that thrills us through and through, so that our blood tingles with a sort of ecstasy, is our job. We don’t want to believe it. We dofTr belieye it. We can’t believe it, We won’t believe it. We can’t worship selfishness. While we all fear starvation and want to hold onto our jobs—while we want enough to eat, sheltered protection against the elements and a fair chance for our children to live, grow to useful manhood and be happy—we want more than that. We want the spiritual blessings that come with life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness in a democratic republic. No. the American flag does not mean our j—i —it means our entire life as American citizens, of which the job a material means to a spiritual end.
Thrills to He'p Weak Appetites It is becoming painfully apparent that the best tonic the doctors can prescribe to keep life from becoming a drab, bilious, uninteresting companion with a chronic headache and a coated tongue is a serial thrill. People never seem to be getting along as well with themselves, each other and the wide, wide world as when they have some heroes or arch villains to worry about. This, at least, has been the experience of the world In the past year, for we have gone from one thrill to another with much gusto. Across the national consciousness have flitted the thrills provided by such hale and hearty beings as Mellie Dunham, who held the center of national interest for weeks with his “Turkey in the Straw” and “Old Zip Coon.” Close after him came the inspiring BerlinMackay romance. Helen Wills went down fighting after a hectic week or two in the headlines, and Marian Talley came up singing. Browning obliged by marrying “Peaches,” and gave the nation something really worth thinking about for a number of weeks. Countess Cathcart and the Earl Carrol bathtub provided their wholesome, invigorating touches and helped appetites immensely. * There was a touch of adventure in the Byrd and Amundsen expeditions, which were so beneficial that many people who had suffered through the winter months were no doubt enabled to get out of bed and prepare to enjoy the summer. The explosion in the naval ammunition dump in New Jersey caused a temporary relapse, but Gertrude Ederle’s swimming of the channel, and Valentino’s well-timed passing away had desirable health-giving attributes. The Florida hurricane was an electrical treatment, Queen Marie nursed along jaded nerves, and the HallMills case really did many people a heap of good. This year, of course, we have had Lindbergh and his flying companions for stimulus. It is not at all improbable that the world, under this treatment, will be able to live through the summer. Treatment of this sort is good for nerves. It acts as a counter-irritant and makes average men or women forget the numerous aches and pains with which they are so obviously afflicted.
(PRINCETON DEMOCRAT) A recent- discussion of the question which form' the caption of this article quotes the opinion of two doctors. One a doctor from Bedford, Ind., who states that he has practiced medicine for Whisky in nearly thirty-nine years. The other jt . a doctor from Patricsburg, Ind., who lie oICK <j oes not give the time of his service Room but states that in three years *ln army camps there was found no need of alcohol for internal treatment. Here is what each man has to say: The Bedford physician is reported as follows: “I have practiced medicine for almost thirty-nine years. In these years, I have had experience with all kinds of diseases at all times, day and night, in rain, snow, sleet and sunshine. I think I know what is best for my patients. You stand in the presencee of a dying child, mother, father, companion or friend; ifVthey need whisky, get it at any cost; that is your constitutional right, regardless of any condition. The lav\ in Indiana is an outrage on liberty, justice and conlmon sense.” Tlae following is taken from the Patricksburgh doctor's \pticle: “Because patients, in extremes have bee* liven whisky, brandyior alcohol in some form,

Widow Fleecing Becomes Chronic In any number of States it is becoming more and more evident that, there is need of a law to protect the fortunes of widows. Too smart confidence men, having exhausted the gold brick and the money machine possibilities, have turned to the widow with recently acquired insurance and property left by her husband’s will as the most lucrative of sources for easy rndney. v The routine followed is usually the same. The confidence man calls upon the widow. He represents himself as a banker or broker, and is properly sympathetic. I-Ie would like to be of service, he offers the usual sure thing. Her money will be safe—it will be doubled. The trusting widow leans heavily upon the solicitous sympathy. And falls. If necessary, the confidence man will marry his victim to gain control of her fortune. Once that is secured, he vanishes. It is often known by bankers, attorneys and courthouse officials that women are throwing away their fortunes-, but there is no action that they can take. They may caution, they may attempt stronger spadecalling language, but the honeyed words of the confidence man are always, apparently, sweeter to the ear. Until there is State protection, the eternal fleecing of widows is bound to continue. A Chicago newspaper is seeking “the best known professional woman in the country,” in the belief she lives in Chicago. Let’s see, where is Peggy Joyce now? Wear sunburn, advises a doctor. My good man, the jails are full enough now without such advice. A stag cook book has been published, offering the favorite recipes of various men. It looks to us like a lot of bologna. Chimpanzees can be taught to sing, says a scientist. Looks like competition for the elephants in grand opera. > Si Slocum looked in at the opera house where they were holding graduation exercises the other day and decided to stay. He said he thought it was a revival of Black Croojc. A professor announces a college course on how to be happy though married is the next step to be taken. Einstein’s theory of relativity probably will be the main subject. A former prohibition leader now is head of a mosquito abatement association. No drinks. No bites. America Conies of Age BY GILSON GARDNER That the preservation of personal liberty to the individual citizen is the most important function of any government, is the conclusion of the brilliant Frenchman Andre Siegfried as set forth in his justpublished and generally acclaimed book, “America Comes of Age.” Siegfried feels that there is an overwhelming spirit of commercialism and materialism in our country, which has made a god of production and has drifted the American republic far from the moorings of Jefferson and Washington. While this is how it looks to a studious foreigner who has evidently made a conscientious study of our country, it is interesting to note the recent formation of an organization to combat this tendency. It has headquarters in Washington and calls itself the American Constitutional Association. J. C. Duke, a practitioner before the United States Supreme Court, is one of the incorporators and spokesman. Mr. Duke says our country is drifting toward a .■dictatorship. Among other pertinent things he says are: “We have but one mission and that is to restore the Government of the United States to the people and the first step in this program is to induce Congress to get back its self-respect by insisting on the rights of the people, whose servant it is. "A free government is not self-perpetuating. It is only through eternal vigilance, as stated by Patrick Henry, that popular government can be guaranteed. “We charge that for some years a determined, sedulous, aggressive and well financed campaign has been in progress having for its definite objective the destruction of the influence of Congress. ?How well these men and interests have succeeded is shown by the fact that today the legislative branch of our National Government is almost wholly discredited. “As all students know, it is only through Congress that the collective voice of the forty-eight States can be heard and it is only through the same agency that the collective demands of our great commonwealths can obtain proper attention. With the destruction of the power and influence of Congress State lines are virtually wiped out and the commonwealths, which the Constitution has invested with sovereignty, are converted into mere administrative divisions of the National Government.” Mr. Duke says the present contest is between the Hamiltonian theory that all power emanates from the President;, and the Jeffersonian theory that all power reposes in the people and is exercised under the Constitution, with a special view to its first ten amendments—its Bill of Rights. “Mussolini,” sa.ys Mr. Duke, “is dictator of Italy today not chiefly by reason of great ability or brilliancy, although he has both, but because the Italian people lazily surrendered their political rights and willingly turned them over to an absolute ruler, just as they did to Augustus many centuries ago. “In this country as all over the world there is an apathy and Indifference to public affairs which lends aid to the secret and insidious efforts of interested parties to break down popular government and pave the way for a dictatorship here.”
as a last resort, and have recovered, is no proof that their lives were saved by such agency. The National Pharmacopoeia has discarded alcohol as a medicinal agent, and such a scientific authority is to be preferred to the contrary opinion of some physicians. The regulations of the medical department of the United States army specifically interdict the internal use of alcohol in combating shock resulting from wounds, bleeding, etc., calling attention to the fact that alcohol is a depressant and not a true stimulant. The writer’s nearly three years medical army experience in the United States army camps and in France during the world war confirms the wisdom of such medical procedure.” Naturally, few people have practiced medicine and these opinions from two men of the profession leave the average individual in about the same position as before. x You can read what <they say and take your choice of the argument. . So far as Indiana is concerned the question is settled until another election and legislature is in session and if there is no more setiment in favor of changing Indiana’s “bone dry” law than has been made evident in past few sessions of that body there is not much likelihood of it being changed at the ntxt session.
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
M. E. TRACY SAYS: Liberty Is of Essential Importance, Not Because It Allows Us to Vote, but Because It Allows Us to Think.
It costs more to celebrate the Fourth of July these days than it did to make it worth celebrating in the first place. If the people of this country spend an average of two dollars each, and that is a conservative estimate, you have a total of $220,000,000, which is more than it took to finance the Revolution. If twenty-five people are killed and fifty injured, which is also a conservative estimate, you have a greater casualty list per day than prevailed during the six years the colonies took to win their independence. But Gloom Unnecessary Let us not gloom over such startling comparisons. They prove what we can afford, or think we can, whether they prove anything else or not. The Fathers hardly realized what a fine job they were doing when they signed the Declaration of Independence, or how 'pleased wc would be over it. They certainly never realized that we would blow off more powder in their honor than they used to lick King George. IVftich Has Happened It is a far cry back to 1776, farther when measured.by the changes that have taken place than the years that have intervened. When the Liberty Bell rang out its fateful message, a horse was the fastest medium by which to carry the news. It was four or five days before the people of Boston knew what had occurred in Philadelphia, and it | was months before somt-of the outlying rural communities realized that war had been formally declared. Such conditions seem ancient when viewed in the light of radio and trans-Atlantic flying, yet there are living men, who have talked with men, who were old enough tq shoulder muskets when the Declaration of Independence was signed. Hemmed in by Fear This Republic is not great because it is 151 years old, but because of the Inventions and discoveries that have been made during its life, because of the way people have learned to convert raw material into comforts and conveniences, because of the great improvement in living conditions that has taken place. The average child not only has twice the chance to grow up that he did when this Republic came into existence, but he has ten times the chance to enjoy himself. One hundred and fifty-one years ago it was a common thing for people to live and die without ever going fifty miles away from their home. It was a common thing for them to live and die without having seen a newspaper more than once a week, or have read more than a score of books. They were hemmed in not only by physical barriers, but by innumerable fears and superstitions. Born with just as good brains as we possess, they lacked the incentive and in some cases the courage to use them.
Let People Think The power and prosperity of this republic have been developed by the mechanic, the scientist and the business man, who were given their chance by the new political system for which it stood. The world would have had the telegraph, the railroad, the automobile and the airplane long before it did if people had been allowed to think. Before this republic was established, with freedom of speech, freedom of conscience and freedom of the press as its foundation stone?, the world lived in terror of human ingenuity. Instead of encouraging people to use their wits, the moving idea was to prevent them. An invention, especially if it had to do with mechanical forces, was generally regarded as- emanating from the devil and as representing a menace to be destroyed. It is an interesting fact that while the Revolutionary War was going on, Benjamin Franklin’s lightning rod became the subject of prosecution in a French court on the ground that it was a contrivance of black magic. Liberty’s Importance In this day when men are honored for original ideas and original achievement, we find it hard to realize that the same thing would have bee nmore likely to land them in jail than bring them apjplause 151 years ago. Liberty is of essential importance, not because it ajlows us to vote, but because it allows us to think. The progress that has been made not only in this nation, but throughout the world proves what men can do for themselves when given the ebapee, and what they might have done many centuries before if they had not been restrained by a lot of nonsensical tyrannies. How old is Lon Chaney? Is he married? He was born at Colorado Springs, Colo., April 1, 1883. Hejs married and has a grown son. His wife was formerly Hazel Bennett. /She is a non-professional.

A Highly Dramatic Puzzle Awaits Your Solution When You See A Million Bid’ at the Indiana —— BY WALTER D. HICKMAN—
Just suppose—that you were a great brain surgeon and by performing one successful operation upon a certain man you may ruin your own domestic happiness. And then suppose that you perform the operation and the patient, with his memory restored, can legally demand his wife. The question as applied to “The Million Bid" is: Was the memory of Geoffrey Marsh restored by the
operation of Dr. Brent? This dramatic ending of 'this movie ends in a question mark, and it is one of the most effective endings I have seen for a long time. Here is a magnificently directed picture by Michael Curtis and in it is some highly effective trick photography. Tfte director really shows you what is going on in the brain

box of Marsh when he is fighting | to reclaim his memory after the operation. Here is one of the most startling bits of photography, as well as magnificent direction, that I have seen for many months. , Here is the problem as presented in “A Million Bid”: A society woman in Paris needs some real coin and a lot of it to pay her bills. She has a beautiful daughter by the name of Dorothy and so mamma decides that she will compel her daughter to marry Geoffrey Marsh. Mother pulls that sob stuff by the gallon and daughter consents to marry Marsh, although her mother knows that her daughter really loves another, a young Dr. Brent. Daughter does not learn until it is too late that Marsh had paid hei mother a cold million for her and also did not know that her mother had prevented the doctor’s love letters ever reaching Dorothy. A swell wedding happens and mother is happy with her cash and daughter is mighty unhappy with her husband. They take mother on a honeymoon on their yacht, the newlyweds do. Os course there is a storm and during the storm the bridegroom gets mighty unruly with his bride. Then the yacht is wrecked. We see mother meeting her death while she attempts to rescue her jewels. Dorothy is rescued and we next see her in a highly nervous condition in a grand home in London. When the yacht is wrecked we see friend husband being left for dead on the sinking yacht. Finally Dorothy is mentally cured by Dr. Brent and they marry. They have three happy years and on* child. And then suddenly Husband No. 1 arrives, minus any memory of the past or even who he is, to be operated on by Dr. Brent. Just before the doctor is to operate, Dorothy tells her husband that if his operation is successful, their happiness would be ruined because her first husband would claim her. The doctor remembers that he is a surgeon and performs the operation on Marsh. And then what happens, I will let you be your own judge. Dolores Costello certainly is a beautiful looking creature in this movie. She does magnificent work. Betty Blythe certainly makes an effective highbrow mother whose only interest in life is money and social position. Warner Oland is a powerful Geoffrey Marsh. And Malcolm McGreggor was Just the right choice as Dr. Brent. Publix this week is presenting their best revue so far, called “Way Down South." Here you find several beautiful scenes, some good singing smart dancing and a lot of good specialty numbers, especially those contributed by Jack Russell, a dancer, and Uke Lew and “Chic,” blue blowers. A splendid whistling novelty is offered by Sybil Anderson Fagan,

Harold Ramsey succeeds in getting the people to sing while he plays, “It All Depends On You,” on the pipe organ. The orchestra is playing a collection of tunes by Victor Herbert as an overture. At the Indiana all week. RICHARD DIX GOES IN FOR MODERN MELODRAMA After enjoying much popularity because of himself as well as the ability of someone to get him effective movie stories, Richard Dix now attempts modern melodramas to retain his popularity. We see Richard Dix now placed in the melodramatic atmespheree of being an Army officer ordered to
round up a gang of morphine smugglers. Nearly all the tricks which can be crow ded into modem melodrama have been used in “Quicksands.” You have a bunch of bad men; in fact, a lot of ’em, who smuggle in the dope. There you see a pretty girl and a good one, played by Helene Chadwick. You do not get the “low-
Richard Dix
down” on our heroine until near the end of the picture, when you discover that her father is really a Secret Service agent, and not a dope-smuggler at all. Daughter was only helping her father to do his duty. But our heroine finds time to fall in love with the young Army officer, played by Richard Dix. But of course daughter must help father in his work, and she has no time to marry just then. Os course the dope smugglers learn that our heroine’s father is a secret agent of the Government and so they capture him. Daughter then calls on the Army to rescue her dad. But only one is sent at first and that, of course, is our hero, the young Army officer. A pretty mean fight is staged by Dix and the smugglers, and just when things begin to look serious for the hero and heronine, well, Uncle Sam arrives. Happy ending —love and_ duty triumphs. I doubt 'very much if I will remember “Quicksands” as a Richard Dix picture. Helene Chadwick seems to walk away with a nearly all the acting honors. The director did not do a good job directing this one. The bill includes a comedy, “Eve’s Love Letters’ 1 ; a news reel, Apollo Merrymakers and Earl Gordon at the organ. At the Apollo all week. CORKING GOOD COMEDY IS “IS ZAT SO?” You recall that I thought a good deal of “Is at So?” on the stage. And I .think just as much of it and maybe a little more as a movie. You remember that this story concerns a chap who had the mak-
ings of a champion prize fighter and he probably would have remained a street car motorman if he had not become a pal of a guy who managed fighters. So the two form a partnership in the fight business. Have told you before about the story and the screen version is the same as the stage with many scenes, of course,

that the stage version did not have. Georgk O’Brien is cast as the banana eating fighter and EdmuncJ, Lowe is the kid’s manager. Here ss a comedy
team new to movies. They have appeared separately in other successes but this is the first time that I recall that they have teamed together. O’Erien owns a pair of mighty wicked fists, and I am told that he was pretty much of a fighter when in the navy. The fact-remains that he puts up several wonderful fights in this movie. O’Brien needs no understudy to do his fightin’. He also has a natural comedy sense. He does not overact and seems to just himself all tho time. Lowe knows his way about the movie studio. He is excellent in this comedy. Never have seen Doug Fairbanks Jr. show up as well as he does as the rich man, wno learns how to fight. This lad is a sure comer and he is relying upon his own work and not family fame to make himself a success on the screen. And the subtitles are filled with those wise cracking remarks which made the stage version such a hit. “Is Zit So?” is corking good entertainment, well mounted and splendidly acted. Every time that I see Ted Lewis the more impressed am I with his showmanship and his dramatic and comedy sense of the theater. I will give Paul Whiteman all the credit in the world for at least attempting to make an Institution out of jazz with classical ancestors, but when it comes to putting over a dramatic song, Ted Lewis leads ’em all. This high hat individual in song is only “high hat” when it comes to wearing one on the stage. He is first of all one of the cleverest showmen that we have. He knows what the people want and he serves the food to them his way. That is the reason he is so individual. And being individual, he won over the audience when I was present Sunday as one person can, and, his name is Ted Lewis. He hat a real show with him, but of course Lewis is enough of a show himself. He has a real band and gives each member an individual chance. He has three dancers with him and he works up to the point when the dancers become a sensation. Then Lewis again asks “Are you happy?” pulls the sob finale number and the show is his own again. To my way of thinking this is the best orchestra of the season. On view at the Circle all week. REAL MOVIE ARTICLE ON VIEW AT THE OHIO Generally, a story about crooked politics is one of those theatrical affairs which does not ring true. At last we have a pretty good idea of how crooked politics may be in a photoplay called, “The Telephone Girl.” This story has such a beginning that one would never suspect it to be a political story. You see a man
and a woman enter the lobby of ’he hotel. You 'ear him tell the girl that he “would register as man and wife” because “by then the minister would be there.” You see the girl hestitate and then start toward the elevator of the hotel. Then five years have passed when the story is resumed. You see a girl at the switchboard of a telephone hotel

You learn that the political boss is having trouble in getting the “dear voters” to accept his son-in-law as governor of the State a second time. His opposition is a reform candidate. He is supposed to be lily white in character. You then discover that the political boss learns of the “man and wife” signature on a hotel register five years ago. And the political boss declares that the register is five years old and that the reform candidate has only been married five years. The man is known but the

Why the Weather?
CLOTHING FOR HOT WEATHER Describing a midsummer journey from India into Afghanistan by way of the Khyser Pass. Lowell Thomas, the well-known globe-trotter and lecturer, tells us how he and his companions dressed for the trip. Their clothing was strikingly different from what is commonly supposed to be appropriate for a hot climate. Draped over the backs of unusually thick sunhelmets they wore enormous sun-protectors. These were khaki-colored pads which hung own to protect the base of the brain and the top of the spine, particularly sensitive areas of the human anatomy. Under their coats was worn another long pad to protect the rest of the spinal column. This is known as a “spine-pad,” and is a regulation part of the hotweather equipment of the British Army. In addition to all this they wore heavy clothing, to keep out the heat. “In doing so,” says Mr. Thomas, “we were merely following the well-known example of those poor mortals who stoke furnaces on liners in the Red Sea or the Indian Ocean, and who must endure temperatures almost beyond the limit of human imagination.” Lastly, they wore special amber glasses to protect their eyes from the glare of the sun. ’ Every few miles on their way acros sthe plain from Peshawar <to Ft. Jamrud, at the eastern end of the Khyber, they passed stone structures marked “Heat Stroke Hot.” These are for travelers who break down while trekking along the caravan route.

Mr. Fixit Overtime Parking in Front of Private Property Is Prohibited.
Relief from parked autos preventing use of a private garage was sought by a correspondent of Mr. Fixit. Dear Mr. Fixit: Does the city have an ordinance preventing the parking of autos in front of property at the point that said property owner can not even drive up to his own property and at times is unable to enter the drive to his garage? If not, why not? Persons in an apartment find it more convenient to park on a cross street, opposite from their apartment. Often cars are congested on my side of the street and there are none on the opposite side. They just don’t want to drive a half-block and turn around. Frequently the cars set out all night without tail lights, menacing every driver who enters the street. I believe police should investigate. TIMES READER. There Is no ordinance to prevent persons from parking In front of your home unless they park overtime. You could call attention of the patrolman on , your beat to It. Motorists are not permitted to use streets for a garage all night. Traffic Captain Lester E. Jones ordered motorcyclemen to keep an eye on your street. Motorists In the future will find tags for overtime parking and failure to have tail lights burning. Dear Mr. Fixit: Will you please sec why the hedge is not trimmed at the corner of Cruse and Market Sts. It has grown so high that it obstructs the view of machines coming east on Market St. TIMES READER. Your complaint was referred to the street commissioner who will investigate and order relief. *
