Mrs. Hendricks, whose love of the Stars and Stripes was somcth'uvr very much like worship, thought at once of the pledge of allegiance written by the high school boy who now was with Uncle Sam's fighting men across the Pacific, and she submitted it to the national committee which was to make the selection. Out of thousands upon thousands of manuscripts which reached the committee and were read and passed on, the pledge of Frank Bellamy was chosen as the one expressing in fewest words and strongest phrases the loyalty of an American to his flag and to the Announcement of New Ownership of the Overland Sales and Service Station Saturday a deal was consummated whereby the Overland Sales Service Station passed from the hands of Hahn Bros, to Workman Ross.

S. Smith, author of "America," and others from whose pens have come undying expressions of fealty to the United States. Frank Bellamy returned from the Philippines shattered in health by his stay in the tropics. It is an interesting fact that he knew nothing of the adoption of his pledge of allegiance by the patriotic societies of America until Mrs. Hendricks told him when he arrived in his home town.

"We are proud of you, Frank," she said, "and the national W. R. C. has passed a resolution thanking you for writing it." The boy flushed. "It didn't express half what I tried to write," he said.

The physicians who examined him on his arrival home found that the white plague already had him in his grip and ordered him to the mountains.

Mr. Gossard has issued a statement to the people of the county and asks that it be given the widest publicity through the newspapers, inviting every town and township to send as many people to the Altamont meeting as possible.

That is the scene presented to the visitor in any public schoolroom in America on Washington's birthday or Flag day, or any other occasion of a patriotic program. And the visitor, man or woman, old or young, cannot but carry away a never fading picture of the scene, for it is patriotism in the making. So universal is the custom and so chief a part does the Flag Pledge play in America's expression of loyalty that it is hard to realize that it came into existence less, than twenty years ago.

But in spite of its modern origin the public knows little of ita authorization and still less of its author. New interest in it has-eome in the preparations for war with Germany and many requests for information regarding it have reached the Star in the last few days.
