THE BRITISH FLAG.
"It flies for the government of the people, for the people, by the people, and for the greatest good of the greatest numher. It flies for liberty for all who are able to use it and will not abuse it, and for guiding all others along the road that leads to it. It flies (whatever the difficulties of these days may be) for the Open Door, a fair field and equal rights for all nations. It flies for the gospel that the labourer is worthy of his hire, and that men shall not be vslaves. It flies for humanity in all things, for Justice and Merey, for the stopping of cruelty, for kindness to animals, for the love of little children. It flies for the honour of the spoken and written word through the world. It flies for spreading as wide as can be the field of human happinesfs. It flies for the toleration of every man's opinion. It flies for the unselfish pursnit of the good of all mankind. It flies for the peaee of all the world, which no nation ever ionged for more."-— From "Salute Ihe Kum,". bjr Arihur Mm.
