It is they | are supreme in your thoughts and the thoughts of all of and it they when we honor today in the | blessing of flags which indicates by | its stars the number of men from this | parish who fighting the of | democracy. It is fitting indeed that these three | flags should be unfurled in a church, the history of which is so closely identified with that for which the emblems stand. The service flag has indeed a red border, but we know that that red is not the red of anarchy or revolution. 1t has a field of white, hut | that white is neither truce nor defeat. | | No, my friends, the red in that service flag is the blood of our young men; | the white is the purity of their love of | country; and the blue stars——, they | are stars of hope and confidence that | Victory will be theirs and that the will all come back to us from the fra into which their love of country has sent them. This service flag repre- | sents our country militant, and the same spirit of righteous militancy which emboldened the church of old will inspire her sons taday in their struggle against an oppressive tyrant. “The Red Cross flag typifies our country suffering. It bears a cross even as the founder of the church bore his cross. It is the svmbol of ' sacrifice which we must undergo to- day whether we will or not Wha are not free to choose. We must sacrifice just as nobly here at home as though we were with our bovs over there. And in the same spirit as Christ and his church suffered, so must we Wea are obliged to do it. Tt is our duty. There is no home in this city, aye, in this country, where the spirit of sacri- i fice symbolized by that flag has not made itself felt. Your presence here friends, is a guarantee of nciples at stake in the life of our nation at this mo- ment. Our country is dependent upon our spirit of sacrifice Without this spirit, the nation would perish, for the nation is made up of states, the states of fami and the | families of individuals who must he willing to undergo ev fice if their country is to surv lven as the history of the church is made of epochs of sacrifice, so is the tory of our country. It was in toil and sacrifice that our forefathers laid the foundation of this land of freedom, and sacrifice has been the cardinal | virtue of her greatest men | “And what shall T say of that third ! flag, that most glorious emblem of all, the Stars and Stripes? If r- vice flag represents the country m ftant, and if the Red Cross flag sym- bolizes the country suffering, then the national banner, the Red, White and | Blue stands for nothing else than the | ecountry triumphant! It stands for | freedom, equal rights and the rule of the majority of the peopla. The jand over which it flies knows no creed that admits of any inherited clvil au- thority or right to govern. The land of the Star S L Banner, like the church, has fought and suffered, but it aly triumphed over its enc- mies. And the God of justice Who | aided His church in ng a obstacles will not fail our country its fight to defcat the alms of a m dened despot who dares to call his ally, though worshipping in the same breath another god, ambition, on whose altar he would immolate the world. “Just a sac ar the te enacted | nee solemn for ones at | | | this | aging the | ana for | which | of car-| | t of who in is whose dear be en struggle, us, 1 | { are cause i | | unp his- | | | { has 1ys word more ahbout another And | failed | gists, | banner | children | what they | station to bid them good-bye, VINOL FOR BRONCHITIS| Cured Her—Read r’s Letter.
