zeng of Skagway and also a num
ber of visitors who were in town.

ritualistic Flag service of the B. f
O, Elks was performed by the of
ficers and members of the order and
a most pleasing program of In
strumental and vocal numbers to
gether with two addresses rendered.
E. A. Rasmuson read the history
of "Old. Glory" and he was atten
tively listened to by the audience.
Rev. L. H. Pedersen delivered a
oatriotic address which was exceed
ingly fine. He summarized the rec
ord of the flag and took for his
theme "Autocracy and Democracy"
pointing out the three great histori
cal epochs in America's history.
The Declaration of Independence,
The Emancipation Proclamation, an
President Wilson's address to the
United States congress on APrll 2,
1917, in which he asks Congress
to declare the existence of a
state of war with Germany. Mr. Ped
ersen closed his address with "My
Flae and Your Flag,'' which he re
cited In a most eloquent manner.

The boya squeez% together in the

Crowded round; the fireplace, a thin§

They watch tne shifting embre<9 till

That fill the law hovel with blos

And blue sky and white clouds
that sail, the clear air through.
They talk of daffodillies and blue*

Till silence thrills and murmurs at
\ the things they have said . . .
