Mrs. Cantwell Proposes a New Salute
To Flag
"N. C. American Legionalrs: Par
tially If not entirely through the ef
forts of a North Carolina member of
the American Legion Auxiliary, Mrs.
Robert C. Cantwell, Jr., of Wilmington,
a change has been made In tjie correct
position for a woman to assume as
the flag of her country pusses by. In
stead of the military salute which has
been the rules, from now on a woman
will placo her right hand over her
heart and stand at attention.
"Mrs. Cantwell brought the matter
before the Auxiliary convention at
Greensboro, last September, and
brought it up again at the national
convention at New Orleans. The new
attitude has been promulgated in the
new auxiliary manual of ceremonies.
"It is awkward at times for a wom
an to put her hand to her head, Mrs.
Cantwell comments, particularly with
her hat on. And Burely her flag Is near
her heart. It makes my heart beat
faster when I see the flag go by."

Of all the engllsh words misused
Taken was the moat abused.

" CITIZENSHIP

Is made up of citizens. Ecclrstate Is
weak or strong according as the mass
at its citlsens Is weelror strong. Each
Individual Is a. part ot the St ite. If
there ate one million citizens then
each citizen Is one millionth of the
State. If there are three hundred citi
zens in a comnnlty then that com
munity Is three hundred mlllionths of
the State. What these three hundred
determines what three hundred mil
lionth:-! of the State is. It determines
wl?t the community is.
80 also Is It tnje that in a com-,
munity where therq are three hundred
citizens, each Individual Is one thr e
huiidredths of the community. Is not
one Juit as much a part of the c.in-i

True If Is that that person should n >t.
But If he does permit -it and the t-vo
hundred ninety-nine don't do anything
about it, -are th?y not permiMne it
too?
The time has come when we mnjt
act. We are oitizens, and we must
assume the responsibility of citizens.
If there is a cancer on the body It
Is the duty of the will to command (tie
members to administer medicine or
else go to a doctor. If there is a sore
or cancer In a cotamunlty. It is (he
duty of the citizens of thatcommunity
toadmlnlstermedlclnethat afhetshillion
to administer medicine that will cure.
It is the duty of every citizen to
that he, as a part of the State, Is a
good citizen. It is a duty of every citi
zen to cooperate with other citizens In
enforcing law and preserving g^od
order ? '?
But you say .Whit If no one will
stand by you In putting down evils?
Listen! When all parts of the body
give up the fight against disease, It
dies. The white corpuscles In the blood
fight to the end. The body^does not die
of disease until the white corpuscle*
give up.
How many men will be like these
white corpuscles Will you fight the
comunlty evils to the end. Are yon
enough In earnest to band together for
law enforcement and see that every
law breaker Is brought to trial with
enough evidence to convict au4
enough sentiment to puntsh to the
