A dramatic fragment depicts the devil by a fiery lake admitting defeat and wishing to quit his job in Hell. He laments not keeping up with the times and credits Kaiser Wilhelm with greater cunning, while a requested quotation by Norman Maine is noted.
The Elks observe Flag Day on June 4 with a tribute to the Stars and Stripes. From colonial flags to the 1775 Continental banner, the piece traces the evolution of the American flag and its ties to liberty and national identity.
The article traces the flag’s origins from 1777 to 1778 with the first stars and thirteen stripes design tied to Congress actions and builders like Robert Ross, noting later additions of states and revisions during Vermont and Kentucky periods. It evokes patriotism, the Flag’s symbolism, and Elks’ pledge to uphold liberty, invoking Webster’s maxim about country first and the moral duties tied to Old Glory.
