♦ FROM NOW TILL THE END OF ♦
* THE WORLD ♦
(By Salisbury Field of the Vigilantes.)
We are a free-born people, strong in
the pride of birth,
Kneeling to God on His shining throne,
kneeling to none on earth.
By all that is blest and holy, stars of
our flag unfurled,
The flag You gave to us shall wave
from now till the end of the
world!
We are free-born people, strong with
the will to do,
Ready for peace or battle, firm in our
faith in You.
Hope of the lesser nations, stars of our
flag unfurled—
Shine on! Shine on! And. greet the
dawn from now till the end of
the world. ' (
We are free-born people, honest in
word and deed;
Love is the light of our being, right is
the root of our creed.
And right shall prevail—’tis Your
promise. Stars of our flag un
furled,
Lead true! Lead through! We’ll follow
you from now till the end of the
world.

(LI B WOMEN PREPARING
FOR FEDERATION MEETING.
Owing to the present stress of na
tional conditions, the twenty-first an
nual convention of the Georgia Feder
ation of Woman’s Clubs, which will be
held in Augusta November th to 9th,
will be one of the thost notable in the
history of the federation.
The club women all over the coun
try, for the past year have directed
their attention, their most serious
thought and their combined energies
toward the question of the most effec
tive and efficient patrotism and service
to their country.
In view of these facts, it has been
'announced that the social side of the
convention will be eliminated to a
great extent, in order that the time us
ually devoted to social functions may
be devoted to more serious questions
confronting the organized women and
to inspirational meetings.
St. Paul's parish house will be used
for the daily sessions, and the evening
meetings will probably be held in one
of the theatres. Among the promin
ent women who will be present are
Mrs. Joseph Evans Cowles, of Los
.Angeles, Cal., president of the general
federation; Miss Julia Lathrop, chief
of the children’s bureau, Washington;
Mrs. Nellie Peters Black, president ot
the Georgia federation and others.
