Among the amenities of our times, one of the most agreeable is the apparently growing inclination on the part of the States, em- battled during the war between the North and South to return captured flags. Recently representatives of the State of Maine went to Washington and, meeting there officials of the States of Virginia, South Carolina and Texas and survivors of the Confederacy, gave back to the Southern States these treasured relics of idealism and courage. Later, North Carolinias gathered at Trenton, where they were presented with flags captured by New Jersey troops in 1863. No indication has been given as to how these exchanges began. It is clear that Maine led off by returning flags to South Carolina, but is this a general movement under way? It would be a fine thing if that were so. Americans never proved their mettle more conclusively than when they fought one another during the 60 s, and their records of gallantry stand as the pride of each state then vjor i in the field. There must be many Southern flags in states, and in the South there are still standards which were taken ! These flags are proud family !. m-- n of L.ee and Jackson. the descendants of brave that is and it not heirlooms, surprising their American soldiers should value among possession colors which their ancestors brought home from the war. But they would mean so much to the people of the states in whose name they were borne, and hung on the walls of the State Capitols they would be a con- stant reminder of a glorious, if unhappy, past. Each flag could be draped above a tablet reciting where, when and by whom it was taken and celebrating the fraternal spirit back of the restitution. There is a sentiment involved in this which could be used to mitigate the forgetfulness of a busy, materialistic age.

I THE MAN FROM THE COUNTRY. Why do so many men from "the country wind up chief executive positions in industry and in public office? Probably because they develop a stronger physical constitution and a broader education on many and varied lines of human endeavor and activity. The average man raised in- the city does not have the same opportunity for mental and physical growthr The man who gained his early training away from the great centers of population generally has a broader vision of human affairs, and a better mental "yardstick with which to see nd measure the possibilities of the future. - REAL ESTATE ACTIVE.
