It Is an old say ing that "familiarity breeds con tempt." It may not do that in the case of our nattonsl flag, but it la certain that if it Is used at .all man ner of dolnga Irrespective of their character, there cannot be for it that love and reverence such as one feels that puts the proper estimate on the flag and has a due sense of the fit ness of things. To drap ethe flag about a beer barrel, or to fly it at some little foolish show, or as an advertisement for one-s business Is an Insult to the nation and a dishon or to the flag.

An old camp wagon was rigged up and a couple of firemen costumed as mov ers drove a team hitched to the wagon up to the midle of the square where they proceeded to unhitch and water the horses and make camp. As a part of the program they acci dentally set the wagon on fire with a gasoline stove while preparing a meal. The fire alarm was sounded and the hose carts which were sta tioned an equal distance apart, rac ed to the fire, the object being a race for first water. Hose cart number one were the winners although hose cart number two out ran their op ponents. On Monday July 6 the regular monthly meeting was held. The meeting was of short duration as the members were anxious to pro ceed with a smoker scheduled for the evening. A few well chosen re marks were made by Chief Severyn, Mayor McLeod and L. W. Dickinson and were loudly applauded by the firemen who enjoyed themselves un til a late hour with cards and refreshments. Political Cards v V'. i.',-.
