Is something we should watch in ourselves. We must not neglect our rtutlew of citizenship. I do not wish to plead with you to accept the League of Nations, hut I do plead with you to study the League of N.tions as It Is; not to accept it because it is Wilson's league, nor to he against it because it Is Wilson's league, hat to honestly think about it yourselves. Do not break faith with those who fell in Flanders Field by allowing a re-occurrence of that because of which they fell," said Knollenberg. Mrs. H. H. Huntington, regent of the local chapter of the Daughters of the Revolution, introduced the speakers. The Rev. Addison Parker offered an Invocation and spoke of the religion of the American flag and its significance to the Ideals of America.

"What have the things for which our boys have fought, been worth, if we cannot prove their worth; if we do not come back more determined to discharge our duty as citizens?" asked .Wilfred Jessup, Richmond attorney, in an address before the audience gathered in the South Tenth stree park Saturday afternoon in honor of Flag Day. "It is the increasing responsibility of every citizen to make worth while the things which have been saved for America," said Jessup. "I for one nave no patience with the fear which is going from mouth to mouth, ever present, regarding conditions in this country. I cannot turn the pages of history and find a- single period following war which was not accompanied by distress, but what have the things out boys fought for been worth if we allow ourselves to be overcome by the distress following the Btruggle. Ask any of these veterans sitting here if things are in any more chaotic condition now than they were at th close of the Civil war, and do not for-

get that that is ony less than sixty years ago." Jessup urged that the view of some Americans on the European situation Is not logical. "Why Bhould we believe that peoples who had the power to push forward In the great diives that the allies did in 1914, 1915 and 1916 are unable to save themselves? "With our help they can Bave themselves industrially and politically as they did in battle,"said he, "and we shall save America. "We are on the threshold of the greatest industrial era of our history, but I do not understand how we are to reap the joys unless we assume some obligations and take the sorrows," said Jessup. Captain W. L. Misener and Corporal Harold Norris talked about their ex

periences abroad. Particularly did Cap

tain Meisener praise the spirit of com

radeship shown among the wounded men who were brought to his hospital in France, and among the elisted men stationed at the hospital. Brotherly Love Is Shown. "I have seen a wounded man get up to do something for a comrade, despite all that the nurses and orderlies could say. I have seen men do this when they were 60 weak they fell on the floor faint from the effort. The spirit of brotherly love and comradeship was shown in France to a magnificent extent," said he. "Every boy and man had his 'buddy." who would

stick by him through thick and thin." Captain Misener explained that he was permanently assigned to a hospital near La Rochelle about July 10, 1918. He said they were able to get good food for the patients. While eggs sold from 75 cents to a dollar a dozen, milk was only seven cents a Quart, said he. Norris" Talk Is Jolly .Corporal "Hobo" Norris talked about everything but the horrors and difficulties of war. . In true American style be delighted his audience with a recital of the funny side of fighting Huns in France. "We found ourselves at the front at

Chateau Thierry last July. That was an awful big day," said Corporal Xor-

rig. "It was rather a surprise to find ourselves up there, but we were loaded with rifles, bayonets, pistols, helmets, winter underwear, winter suits and it was a hot day. "I bad a bad job." said Norris. "As a telephone corporal I bad to get to

posts, three and sometimes eight to ten kilometers out, generally going and coming under shell fire. It was a swell job and once out there on a; special charge, I said goodbye to the!

front. I wasn't in the hospital over two months, though, and then got back to the Argonne, which also was a bad place. Very annoying! "And when I got back to the embarkation camp after my wounded shoulder caused me trouble on the march to Germany. I believe I would bave taken a row-boat and beat it home bad there been one bandy. "Of course I didn't do more thau any other fellows but do you know that it rather made me wonder when I got back home here and several people mentioned in my presence that they did not know whether it all 'over there' had been worth much anyhow, and insinuated that they wondered whether we should have gone into it at

all. Yes, that's pretty bad after a fellow had gone through with it all.

"It is not merely to think and do for our country during the war. We still have a faith to keep," said Bernhard Knollenberg, Richmond attorney, who also addressed the audience. Using that bit from "Flanders Field"

MURRAY V Tom Mix, with five reels of stunts and peppery action, ia coming to the Murray Theater today in a play called "The Coming of the Law." This drama of life in the West is taken from the book by Charles Alden Seltzer. The scenario was written by Dennison Clift, and the production was staged by Arthur Rosson. In the story Mix, in the character of Kent Hollis, enters Dry Bottom, New Mexico, like any other tenderfoot, without guns; but he has brought with him two powerful fists and a clear and cool brain. There is no law in Dry Bottom when he arrives. The cattle rustlers headed by big Bill Dunlavey, are running the town. The Sheriff does their will, and the only honest official is Judge Graney whose attempts to keep things stranght are continually thwarted. But when the Judge and Hollis get going they soon rout the bad men and bring the law into Dry Bottom to stay.
