Emphasis laid news in the hope that the fact will encourage building opera- tions by local capitalists first, and if not by them, that capital will be at- tracted from city. This, for the reason that proper housing is one of the gost important matters to be considered in advocating move- ments looking to the welfare of a city and its people. Capital will building solely because such build- ing add to the happiness and welfare of the people of a city, Capital is proverbially cold are should be on the increased outside the not be interested in will of course. and calculating. But, strange as it may seem, cap- ital is sometimes influenced to turn to an investment which will bring in- well-being to a locality be- where capital creased canse of that very fact, i debating which way to turn for in- vastment. The future of New Britain is sured. Temporary quiet in business and manufacture cannot aiter this fact. There will be people here al- ways looking for homes, then better homes, then the best sort of homes. The rise of local men from poverty to afflucnce is furnishing proof of the truth of this statement—it is a good place in which to live, grow and suc- ceed. Those who build here will eventually p big returns on their investment. OMMUVICATED Verse “Your Flag and My Flag” Sup- plied by Mrs. G. E. Brann In answer to a communication in Jast evening's Herald requesting that the poem “Your Flag and My Flag” be submitted for publication, Mrs. G. E. Brann was kind enough to come forward with a copy which we reprint herewith. Peter Barone of Park .street also kindly furnished the Herald with the text, as- YOUR FLAG AND MY FLAG v ovox (Wilbur D. Nesbit) Your flag and my fla, And how it flies today In your land and my land And { the world away!

March 15.—Unable to agree upon a verdict, Mercer coun- ty's second mixed jury to remain locked up together all night was dis- charged today. It heard a suit for damages against the Public Service Railway Co., but was unable to agree. Whereas the members of the last mixed jury told conflicting stories as to how they spent the night, some of them admitting that they played cards and took naps, today's jury ap- parently had agreed upon a policy of silence as not one word was forth- coming as to how the deliberations were conducted. Five of the jurors discharged today were married women and their hu bands were in court when they re- ported.
