    FLYING THE LOYALTY FLAG
By WILLIAM T. ELLIS
Loyalty first!
is the imperative word of the
nation. Disloyalty is dishonor, black
and complete. There is no room in
this land for divided allegiance. If
a person's loyalty bo even suspected,
lie is forced to fly the flag of fealty.
As the war goes on, the conviction
has grown in the common mind that
any failure in full fidelity is simply
Intolerable. Pro-Germanism, pacif
ism, "internationalism" are no long
er permitted in any degree.
Life's great lesson of loyalty is be
ing taught afresh to the world. All
tne trimmers and trucklers and dil
lettantes are forced to take a posi
tion. squarely and openly. The men-'
tal laziness and indecision which
masquerade as superior culture have
been rudely jolted into a knowledge
of the eternal truth that a hallmark
of every genuine character is loyalty, i
The man who does not experience;
the passion of faithfulness to a,
friend, a conviction or a cause is an j
outcast. The war has taught us to j
fly our flags.
"If you have a friend worth loving.;
Love him, yes, and let him know.
That you love him, ere life's even- j
ing I
Tinges his brow with sunset glow, i
"Why should good words ne'er be said j'
Of a friend —till he is dead?
"If you hear a song that thrills you, J
Sung by any child of song.
Praise it. Do not let the singer
Wait deserved praises long.
Why should one who thrills youri
heart
Lack the joy you may impart? j
"If your work is made more easy
By a friendly, helping hand, •
Bay so. Speak out brave and truly, j
Ere the darkness veil the land.
Should a brother workman dear
Falter for a word of cheer? '
An Old Poet's Wise Wort!
The sort of mind that squirms un-;
der the necessity of coming to am
open decision finds these hard times
to be alive. The spirit of the world j
war has taught us that we cannot be >
neutral when moral issues are con- |
cerned.
Neutrial nations, even as was true
of America before she entered the
war, have profited i" worldly wealth;
by their position, but they have suf-1
fered spiritual and moral deteriora-'
tian. When a great Cause comes
forth with its challenge, all noble
souls are bound to align themselves
on one side or the other. Loyalty is.
the touchstone of character.
An ancient Hebrew poet summed
tip the cases, as respects religion, in j
the terse exhortation. "Let the re
deemed of the Lord say so!" ;
That is an adequate program for;
the growth of the kingdom of God..
"Say so!"—and by that testimony
the number of witnesses will eon-;
tinue to increase in geometric ratio. j
Never mind about preaching an;
elaborate system of theology, or pro- i
nioting an intricate ecclesiastical or-j
ganization: simply "Say so!" if you i
are a friend of Christ. Thus His
crowd will grow and grow, until the|
last man on earth has entered this;
fellowship. There is no other method j
propaganda to equal the simple
Wstimony of those who know what;
they are talking about.
Haul Times For the Pharisees !
Something like bitterness marks
the attitude of men in the armyj
e-.air.st anything savoring of phari-;
Saism. They are as fierce as Jesus;
himself against paraded, .self-right-;
< UfllF**. fieiy poses as suprt ->
lor to others meets with scant court-',
e v front soldiers. "Goodiness" gets;
tough treatment. Hosts of self-j
conscious Christian boys have been |
cured of priggishness in camp. Theyi
hive had to learn, in a rather severe |
school, that there is all the differ
ence in the world between a pose of j
piety, painfully aware of its own re
ligiousness, and a simple, modest!
genuine faith that is a thing of the,
heart and of the conduct. They have:
been taught that Christian testimony!
which is not tactful, and respectful j
to the other man's personality, Is!
really odious.
"Saying so," among the friends of:
Christ in the army, is not a matter|
of sanctimonious phraseology. It is,
rather a sunny .imperturbable ad-i
herence to Christian standards and.
a display of the Christ-spirit in
everyday life. The three cardinal
sins, in the eyes of the soldiers, have 1
1. en listed as (1) cowardice. (2),
selfishness, (3) self-conceit. These j
things are the antithesis of the gen
ius of Jesus: and a Christian may j
•'lay so" by his bravery, his helpful-,
ness, his modesty and his comrade- j
ship.
This is the special light that the
var throws on the lesson. It is not
new, for Jesus indicated it in His;
tremendous phillippics against phar-,
i:nism. which is hut self-righteous
ncss. Anybody who is going to ad-|
vertise the Christian religion nowa-1
days has sot to put the soft pedal,
or. himself. Likewise, he must be j
considerate of the rights and heliefs
of the other man. Censoriousness is i
not saintliness: on the contrary
Jesus is advertised by His loving
friends —loving towards others, as j
well as towards Him.
Hipped by the Tongues
Sages of all times have dwelt upon I
the power of the tongue for evil and |
for good. A few days ago I was :
confronted at Atlantic City with an j
f pinion which I had expressed in San !
Francisco a dozen years ago. Those j
few idle words had been treasured I
by a friend as my creed upon a vital |
public matter: though they are at;
\ ariance with my lifelong convic- j
tion. Either he had misconstrued!
xny words, or I had been careless and j
susceptible of misunderstanding in !
my utterance. Xo special harm had |
been done: but it was startling to j
realize, in this concrete fashion, the ;
power of a chance flung sentence.
" 'The boneless tongue, so small and'
weak.
Can crush and kill,' declares the
Greek.
"'The tongue destroys a greater'
horde,'
The Turk assents, 'than does the'
sword.'
"The Persian proverb wisely salth, j
length tongue—an early death.'
.
•"Or sometimes take this form in-,
stead,
•fu.n't let your tongue cut off yourj
nead.'
" 'The tongue can speak a word!
whose speed,' • ;
Say the Chinese, 'outstrips the i
steed.'
"While Arab sages this Impart,
'The tongue's great storehouse Is the
heart.'
"From Hebrew wit the maxim
sprung,
'Though feet should slip, ne'er let
the tongue.'
"The sacred writers crowns the
whole,
'Who keeps his tongue doth keep
his soul.' "
Staggering as the statement may I
r.eem, Jesus undertook to build His!
Church on the words of His friends.'
"Thou art the Christ," spoken by '
FRIDAY EVENING,
Peter, is the key-truth to the king
i dom. His last commission to His
disciples was "Ye shall be my wit
nesses." The tongue of testimony is
; the principal reliance of the cause
iof God. Wise words win souls. In
'jthe shop talk of business. Christians
are to "sell" the Saviour to their as
-1; sociates.
Putting Passion Into It
.! Anybody who has looked at things
, 1 religious in the large knows full well
! that it is not the rich or the wise or
the fashionable or the powerful or
jthe sophisticated churches that win
; recruits. Ecclesiastical correctness
j does not spell success. Prestige does
4 gain converts. A ghastly reality,
! from the discussion of which we
: shrink, is the fact that there are
many elegant. wealthy, famous
; church edifices which are echoing
j emptiness, week after week. The
j footsteps of the people are never
j heard on their portals. They have
everything a church could ask—ex
cept the glow of faith and the en
j thusiasm of numbers.
Passion is a prerequisite to testi
j mony. Christian hearts must be
I aglow with love for the Saviour be
j fore they can impart that love to
| others. A salesman cannot dispose
of even hardware if he does not be
j lieve in it: how much less can one
dispense spiritual verities which he
] himself does not experience?
"Thy heart must overflow,
j If thou another's heart wouldst 1
reach."
1
; All the exhortations to witness-!
I bearing that can be penned are vain ;
j unless there be the reality of an ar-i
dent love for Christ. Soldiers glow;
with the praises of their com-1
rades and of their officers, because I
that sentiment is so real to them 1
that they cannot hide it. The lover
j betrays his devotion to his beloved
i inevitably, because it is the overflow-)
ing passion of his life. Christians!
j commend Jesus successfully when:
He is the very fulfilment of their be-!
I ing. They "say so" because silence)
i would be recreancy to the best they I
i are and know.
I
"I have a friend so precious.
So very dear to me,
He loves mo with such tender love.;
He loves so faithfully:
I could not live apart from Him,
I love to fee! Him nigh.
And so we dwell together,
My Lord and I.
"He knows how much I love Him, j
He knows 1 love Him well;
But with what love He loveth me i
My tongue can never tell;
It is an everlasting love
In ever rich supply,
And so we love each other.
My Lord and I.
' "I tell him all my sorrows,
I tell Him all my joys,
I tell Him all that pleases me,
I tell Him what annoys:
He tells me what I ought to do,
He tells me what to try.
And so we talk together,
My Lord and I.
I "He knows how I am longing
Some weary soul to win.
And so He bids me go. and speak
The loving word for Him:
He bids me tell His wondrous love.
And why He came to die.
And so we work together.
My Lord and I.

LIEUT. STONE
VISITS SCRANTON
Hero of Thrilling Adventure
in Channel Spending Leave
With Relatives
Soranton Invalided for two
months to recuperate from the ef
fects of his harrowing experience of
a few months ago, when, with a
companion he was adrift on a
wrecked seaplane in the English
Channel for four days, Lieutenant
E. A. Stone, of the naval aviation
corps, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. J.
Stone, formerly of this city, and un
til eleven years ago a resident of
Scranton himself, is visiting his
uncle, Bert Stone, of Clarks Sum
mit.
! Unless granted an extension of his
i leave. Lieutenant Stone will report
j back for uctive service within a tew
; week c . He was in an English hos
pital for' ninety days following his
rescue, and upon his return in this
country spent some time in naval
hospitals in Brooklyn and Norfolk.
His feet, which were turned black
by exposure. s.fter having completely i
healed, became injected again, but
are now healing.
With the modesty characteristic
of most men who have a real story
to tetf. Lieutenant Stone give 3 an
Egyptian rnummy a close run for its
laurels when it comes to talking
about himself. "1 wish they'd let!
me alone," he said. "Down at Nor
folk they made my life miserable."
Referring to an account of his ad
venture in a recent issue of a wo
man's magazine, the young officer
said: "it wouldn't be half bad if they
had it in the Police Gazette, but in
'The Ladies' Home Journal' —can
you beat it?"
Story lteads Like Fiction
The story of the experience of
Lieutenant Stone and his companion.
Sub-Lieutenant Eric Moore, reads j
like a most fascinating bit of fiction. |
At that time he was an ensign in the!
naval aviation section, having en-|
tered the service at the declaration
of war. Previously he hud been,!
for two years, with the Queens, a|
famous English regiment.
Leaving the Isle of Wight in his i
seaplane, as pilot, with Moore as;
observer, at 9 o'clock on the morning
of Saturday, March 16, he went out I
on convoy patrol. Two hours out, j
after having met the incoming con-;
voy, the seaplane, sighting a sup-|
posed U-boat, started off in pursuit, j
but lost its course. The motor went)
"dead" and at. 11.30 o'clock the l
plane landed in a heavy sea. With-j
out a kite or radio aerial to call for,
aid, the two men released two car-1
rier pigeons, the first only reaching)
home, giving the location of the)
plane, with the word, "sinking." The)
second bird lit on the machine and)
would not move until Moore threw i
the navigating clock at him.
The tail-planes were smashed by|
the heavy seas, and the machine wasj
pulled down, by the rear, turning;
over. Finally, the nose rose per
pendicularly in the air. The two
men climbed up and over it, as the
plane capsized, at 2.30 o'clock. The
emergency ration had been in the
rear and the men had not thought of j
it until too late. When Lieutenant j
Stone endeavored to crawl out toj
reach it, he only helped the plane I
to list all the more.
With the two men on the same
pontoon, with nothing to cling to I
but one another to keep from being

washed overboard, the -pontoon be
gan to drift westward. Attacked
by thirst, which they could not
quench, the two endured untold
agony. They later suffered a crav
ing for canned peaches. Lieutenant
Stone's tongue became swollen and
he sucked a pair of "crap" dice
which he had in his pocket until Iris
pips disappeared. Two drizzles came
on, wetting the pontoons, but when
the men turning on their stomach,
lapped up the moisture, the paint
came off with the salt, nauseating
them.
Numbed in all their limbs by ex
posure to the cold and the water
they were unable to swim for bits
of wreckage that from time to time
floated by. Two full biscuit tins
passed, and when the third came
along the men did haul it in only
to find that it contained tobacco.
Convoys were seen daily in the dis
tance and the two officers vainly
signaled with their handkerchiefs.
They had no lights to signal by night
finally their watches stopped, and
they lost all track of time.
Sighting a masthead light on Sun
day night, the men yelled, and the
ship, evidently hearing began ,to
circle. When only a hundred yards
away, with the crew plainly visible,
the ship, evidently mistaking ihe
craft for a submvine, turned away.
This fact afforded some relief, how
ever. for they thought the boat would
report and patrols would be sent out.
Even this failed. The following af
ternoon a seaplane, from the east,
came overhead not more than 800
feet. As the craft passed them they
decided that the observer was sig
naling for help for them. The
plane passed, came back later, but
again went by.
Until this time the two had feared
to be rescued by a neutral ship and
interned. As their spirits fell, the
dread of being taken by an enemy
U-boat turned to the hope that one
—that anything— might pick them
up. Finally, after they had been
adrift for eighty hours, a trawler
was sighted. She had just pursued
a submarine and was listening on

her underseas ■ hyrdophone. The
captain and most of the watch were
below so that the aviators weer not
seen for half an hour. The men
were too weak to stand up and sig
nal, hut rose on their knees to do
so. Moore's hands were too swollen
to hold a handkerchief, but Stone,
who had kept his gloves on, was able
to do so. Finally the trawler three
life-preservers at the end of a line,
but the fficers shouted that theyj
were too weak to catch them. The:
trawler then lowered a boat.
Taken aboard the vessel the offi
cers collapsed after they had been
given water and jam. They were
unable to swallow biscuit. They felt
no pain until their clothes were re
moved, allowing the blood to flow in
to their swollen limbs. Moore lost
six toes from gangrene in the hos
pital, but Stone, as related above,
was fortunate in that his feet, while
turning black, did not decay. They
were taken to a hospital at Portland,
and after five weeks there were taken
to London. Stone left the hospital
at Norfolk last month.
Stone is well known in this city,
having been born here. The family
resided on Adams and Washington
avenues, and Lieutenant Stone at
tended Mercersburg Academy with
many Scranton men. His mother
spends some time at Clarks Summit
each summer since taking up ner
residence in the South. The young
aviator has been made a lieutenant
since his adventure.

The library committee is at present
