H HOW TO FLY
H THE FLAG.
H A friend has sent the Standard a
B statement as to how the American
Hj flag should he displayed.
m The flag should never be laid over
B a table, or wound around a post, or
B tacked against a wall. It should al-
m ways be flown to the breeze from a
H pole. Red, white and blue bunting
H alone should be used for purposes of
m decoration. Here arc some other
B things to remember about flag eti-
B The flag should not be hoisted be-
' fore sunrise nor be allowed up after
H sunset. In the navy the colors are
B hoisted, in ordinary' circumstances, at
H 8 a.m.
M At "Morning and Evening Colors" at,
M forts and military posts civilian spoc-
B tators should stand at attention and
V uncover during the playing of the
B "Star Spangled Banner."
m The flag should never be allowed
H to touch the ground and should never
M be raised or lowered by Any mechani-
M cal appliance.
H When the national and State or
H other flags are flown together the
H national flag should be on the right
H side of the building or lawn.
Hl When the flag is used as a ban-
H ner, that is, suspended on a rope
Hj across a street, the union, or field
Hj of stars, should fly to the north; and
Hj to the cast ln streets running cast
j and west.
m When flags are used in an un-
m eiling of a statue or monument they
m should not be allowed to fall to the
M ground, but should be carried aloft
M to wave out, forming a distinctive fea-
B ture during the remainder of the cere-
B mony.
H When the flag is flown at half staff
H as a sign of mourning it should bo
M hoisted to full staff at the end of the
M funeral.
H To fly a flag at half staff It must
B first be raised to full staff and then
m lowered.
m On Memorial Day the flag should
fl fly at half staff from sunrise to noon
m and full staff from noon to sunset.
B. Rules governing the proper respect
for the flag have been laid down as
follows by the Sons of the Revolution:
It should not bo hoisted before sun
rise nor allowed to remain up after
sunset.
At sunset spectators should stand
at "attention" and uncover during the
playing of the "Star Spanglod Ban
ner," military men are requirod to
do so by regulation.
When the national colors are pass
ing on parade, or in review, tho spec
tator should, if walking, halt, and if
sitting, arise and stand at attention
and uncover.

H Amazing Power of Bon-Opto
H To Make Weak Eyes Strong
H Doctor Says It Strengthens
H Eyesight SO per cent in One
H Week's Time in Many Instances
H A Free Prescription You Can Have
M Filled and Use at Home
m Victims of eye strain and other eye
H weaknesses and those who wear glasses,
H will bo glad to know that according to
B Dr. Lcwia there is real hope and help for
H them. Many whose eyes 'were failing say
H they have had their eyes restored by this
BW remarkablo prescription and many who
H once wore glasses say they havo thrown
H them away. One man says, after using
H it: "I was almost blind. Could not see
H to read at all. Now I can read cvery-
B. thing without my glasses, and my eyes do
H not hurt any more. At night they would
M pain dreadfully. Now they feel fine all
B the time. It was like a miracle to me."
B A lady who used it says: "The atmos-
fl phere seemed hazy with or without
BB classes, but after using this prescription
BB for fifteen days everything seems dear
BB I can read even fine print without
BB glasses." Another who used it says: "I
BBB iras bothered, with eye strain caused by
BBB overworked, tired eyes, which induced
BBB fierce headaches. I havo worn glasses for
BBB several years, both for distanco and work.
BB and without them I could not read my
BB own name on an envelope or tho type-
BB writing on the machine before me. I
BB can do both now and have discarded my
BB i long distanco glasses altogether. I can
BB 'count the fluttering leaves on the trees
BB across the Btreet now, which for several
BB years .have looked like a dim green blue
. &?, A canDot express my joy at what
itihasono for me."
BB j It Istbclteved that thousands who wear
BB ( fxmses can now discard them in a reason-,
ON THE WEST
FRONT.
General F. B. Maurice, chief direc
tor of military operations at the Brit
ish war office in London, in speaking
of the offensive on the French front,
said :
"I will tell you now what our plan
has bocrf and is on the western fronL
It Is- to wear the Germans down. We
realizo that there is going to bo no
big advance without the accomplish
ment of this, "iou need not expect
sensational pushes into enemy terri
tory at presenL It will.be slow ham
mer and tongs fighting, such as we
have been having in tho battle of
Arras. In tills connection I may cite
as a significant fact that the German
higher command lately adopted a de
liberate policy of deceit in the advance
of official statements. This was not
done in the early part of the war and
the reasons for tho present deception
are due to obvious causes. The Ger
man officials are trying to bolster up
the courage of their people and make
them patient."
What is General Maurice's object in
making this public statement? He Is
serving notice on the British public
that the Gerfhans, for tho present at
least, have halted the British advance.
The Teutons have thrown nearly ono
million reserves into the fighting in
France and are drawing on the east
ern front for another million in order
to allow Hlhdcnburg to reassure his
people that when HIndenburg says,
"STOP," the allies cease to make
headway.

RUSSIANS WOULD BE
BLIND.
Germans papers havo commented on
Bethmann-Hollweg's overtures to Rus
sia as a bait to lure the Muscovites
into a separate peace in order to make
conquests in the west.
How simple-minded tho Russians
must De if fhey accept Germany's
offer!
ablo time and multitudes more will be
able to strengthen their eyes so as to be
spared the trouble and expense of ever
getting glasses. Eyo troubles of many
descriptions may bo wonderfully benetfied
by tho use- of this prescription at home.
Go to any activo drug store and get a
bottle of Bon-Opto tablets. Drop one
Bon-Opto tablet in u fourth of a glass of
water and let it dissolve. "With this
liquid bathe the eyes two to four times
daily. You should notice your eyes clear
up perceptibly rlcht from tho start, and
inflammation and redness will quickly
disappear. If your eyes bother you even
a little it is your duty to take steps to
save them now before it is too late.
Many hopelessly blind might have saved
their sight if they had cared for their
eyes in time.
Note: Another prominent Physician to whom
the aboTc nrticl6 "was submitted, fiaid: "Yes.
tho Borj-Opto prescription is truly n wonderful
eye remedy. Its constituent Incredlcnts are rll
known to eminent eye upeclaHsts and -widely

Armored Tank Aids French in Present Offensive
' The new French tank. , -'I"'''js s""i
A new engine of war has made its appearance on the French front. It is an armored car of the same
general style as the British "tank," but it is built on different lines. It is more powerful and is especially
adapted for use in the heavy country through -which General Nivelle's troops arc now advancing.
What confidence can Potrograd
place In the promises of a govern
ment which regards signed treaties
as nothing more than scraps of pa
per? Germany's most solemn obliga
tion would not prevent the militarism
of Germany ignoring any treaty stand
ing in the way of the Junker policy of
devastation and conquest.
Russia would be guaranteed rights
of self-government and freedom from
indemnity, only to find, after France
and Great Britain had been disposed
of, that a flaw in the agreement gave
Germany a complete mastery over the
new republic. If necessary, revolution
would be fostered to give tho Kaiser
the excuse to assert control over the
Russian people.
If Russia ever enters into a compact
with the Central powers, the Slavs
will be dupes.

HOME GUARDS ARE
AUTHORIZED.
Word comes to the Standard to the
effect that the right of the Hoive
Guards to exist as an organization and
eventually carry arms has been chal
lenged by one or two whose horizon
Is very narrow. "
Perhaps those who would obstruct
the good work of the guards havo
nover read the exchange of letters
between the local committeo on prepa
ration and safety and Adjutant Gen
eral Williams:
"Dear Sir: Your letter of the 12th
instant to the Governor, rogarding tho
organization of the Citizens' Commit
tee of Preparation and Safety for We
ber County has been handed to me by
the Governor for reply. This is a very
laudable and commondable undertak
ing for tho citizens of Ogden and any
suggestions and services that thiB of
fice can render will be cheerfully giv
en and performed at any time upcii
advice from you.
"There is at the present time no
state law or regulation providing for
the organization or discipline of Home
Guards and wo know of no national
law covering the same. I bcllevo,
however, that an organization along
military lines that is, with the sever
al hundred men whom you havo into
companies, platoons, squads, etc., with
designated leaders would bo the best
scheme of organization.
"Under the present national law, the
State has no authority, in fact, It is
,strictly prohibited, to loan any arms
or equipment of any kind or put the
same in the hands of any persons
other than the regular organizations
of the National Guard. I wish wo
'could be of some assistance to you
along these linos, but, as stated above,
this lo absolutely prohibited. It Is
true that tho State at the present
time has plenty of arms but no uni
forms, in fact, wo haven't enough uni
forms to outfit tho present enlisted
strength of tho guard, I believe, there
fore, that it will be necessary It you
desire to provide the Home Guard with
uniforms that this will have to bo
done 'by the city or county govern
ments. "If, at any time, the officers of the
National Guard can be of any assist
ance to you whatever in any way,
kindly advise me and wo will do all
that wo can to further your Interests.
"Yours very truly,
(Signed) "W. G. WILLIAMS,
"Adjutant General."
The foregoing should set at rest all
insinuations as to the questionable
status of the Home Guards of Ogden.
The guards require no more authority
than they now possess, and they will
go on drilling and preparing for tho
day when they may bo a source of
great protection to Ogden.
The destruction of 16 cars of distil
late, to tho west of Ogden, on the
Western Pacific, is a reminder that
the ugly head of a conspiracy may
visit any part of this country at any
time, and, if it shows itself in a com
munity which, has a home guard plan
ned on the lines of the Ogden organi
zation, that community will be fortun
ate in having men who had the fore
sight to prepare to ward off the blow.
WANT ABSOLUTE PROHIBITION.
NEW" ORLEANS, May 18. Appeals
to President Wilson and congress for
absolute prohibition in the United
States during the war were adopted
and telegraphed to Washington today
by the Southern Baptist convention.

JAMES GQDDARD TO BE
A CHAUTAUQUA
ATTRACTION
James Goddard, the great bass-baritone
of tho Chicago Grand Opera com
pany, who entertained an Ogden aud
ience during the past season, will re
turn here as one of the Chautauqua
entertainers of 1917. The coining of
this great artist will be one of the
most important features of the Chau
tauqua this yesr and will probably
attract much attention among music
lovers of the city.
Though his first successes were
achieved in Europe, singing at Covent
Garden, London, and the Royal Opera,
Vienna, Goddard Is a native American,
born in Tennessee, and his strongest
passion In music is not the operatic
roles in which he has achieved world
wide fame, but the simple melodies
of the South, which he sings with a
meltfng tenderness that no audience
can withstand. With perfect candor,
Goddard confesses his special prefer
ence for negro music. He knows and
loves his southern darky. Recently,
following a concert at Salem, Oregon,
in which he sang negro songs along
with selections from roles in which he
appeared jointly with Caruso, Frem
stad, Qlausscn and Farrar, Goddard
said:
"t tike negro music seriously. It
is good music, simple but sincere, and
if sympathetically handled is full of
genuine musical value. There is no
other music in the world like iL"
Ho is to give equal prominence to
three distinct classes of music Opera,
such old-time favorites as "The Ros
ary," "A Dream," "Drink to Me Only
With Thine Eyes," and among his ne
gro songs "Exhortation" (a negro
sermon set to music), and the supreme
favorite of all negro requiem songs
"Deep River."

CHICAGO, May IS. Cautiousness
about selling after such sharp declines
as recently witnessed was manifest
today in the wheat pit. It was pointed
out by bullish traders that premiums
for cash wheat, that is, wheat for Im
mediate delivery, had shown a ten
dency to harden and that stocks at
Minneapolis had decreased 820.000
bushels for the week as against 60,000
bushels falling off a year ao. Forced
restriction of buying of future deliv
eries, however, continued to exerciso
a bearish influence in the option pit.
Opening prices of futures ranged from
2 to 4 cents lower, with July at $2.15
to $2.17 and September at $1.96 to
$1.97. There was a slight furthor sub
sequent setback but then a moderate
rally.
