Then when the flag reached the top, ried the following account of the dedication of the tallest flagpole in America," presented to Camp Jack bn bv Lieut. Bruce Carraway of Kinston: "In the presence of Maj, Gen Charles J. Dbiley and staff, a num ber of distinguished visitors,, and thousands of soldiers and civilians, the most beautiful military ceremony so far observed at Camp Mckapn took place yesterday afternoon when the Stars and Stripes were unfurled to the breeze from the top of 'the glistening white flag pole in front of the di vision headquarters. On this occas ion the pole from which will fly the official colors of .the Eighty-first Di vision and Camp Jackson was ac cepted from the donor, Lieut Bruce H.' Carraway, and became the proper ty of the cantonment, with the dedi cation to the American soldiers. "Impressive, indeed, was the scene as Old dory ascended when Lieut Carraway pulled upon the rope. Ar tillerymen, 'cavalrymen and ocmpa nie ; of infantrymen had been march ed up under arms and surrounded the baso of the pole on three sides, whi'e General Bailey, his staff and visitors, together with a number of civilian spectators occupied the other side, thus making a large hollow square. 'Within this square long leaf pine branches were set upright in the ground, forming a unique and pleasing decoration. Directly in front of the pole, and a little distance to the rear, of the assembled troops the military band of the Three Hun dred and Sixteenth Field Artillery occupied a bandstand. The natural surroundings made the scene all the prettier, for the place is just in the center of a grove of pine trees, and is on an eminence that rises grad ually above the remaining terrain of the cantonment. The weather Was ideal for the occasion; the day was well nigh perfect, with the clear November sunshine, and a gentle breeze blowing. When the colors began the ascent, the soldiers drawn up in ranks came to the positiKm present arms while those out of rank stood at 'salute.' and the draw string, releasing a thousand small flags had been pull ed and the unfurled standard float ed proudly in the gentle breeze, the Three Hundred and Sixteenth Band played the 'Star Spangled Banner.' A thrill wept thrfcugh the assembled thousand and the event will be a memorable one, indeed, for those who witnessed it. When the closing bars of the national anthem had been wafted away on the afternoon air, many of the spectators made a rush for the small flags, which had flut tered down and which lay scattered around upon the ground. These mall bits of dolor were considered valuable souvenirs ty the people in the vicinity and some of them even climbed the trees to get the email flags that had lodged there on their downward journey. "SHcrtly before tne official cere mony began the Three Hundred and Eighteenth Field Artillery Band, formerly the Second South Carolina, gave a concert while the spectators were assembling and the troopj marching up to take their places. It Was the Three Hundred and Sixteenth Field Artillery Band, however, which furnished the lefficial music for the occasion. 'Much praise is due these musicians who were led by ,Sergt. Otto Caffin. Their renderings were exceptionally good although they have had their instruments but eight days. "The program began promptly at 1:30 o'clock, when Major General Bailey placed the ceremony in charge of Dr. TJyvnas Newlin, Army Y. M. O. A. camp educational) secretary, who immediately called upon the Three Hundred and Sixteenth Band for its opening1 number. Following this, Dr. Newlin with bared head briefly splakeisentering his thought about the eignificance of the flag for spirituality, idealism and democracy. He told of how the fore-fathers had handed down a glorious flag, prtmd and unsullied, that stood for right and freedom wherever it may fly. whether at home or abroad.
