Flagstaff took place as planned last Saturday morning at the Ravinia Station park despite the drizzling rain. From out of the distance came the military strains of the new Fife and Drum corps of the Dumaresq Spencer post of the American Legion, Then finally coming to a stand in front of the platform at the base of the flagstaff they stood at attention during the exercises. The fag was then raised by James Garnett, president of the C. A. R. soâ€" ciety, assisted by five other members, John Seyfarth, Parliament Peabody, Lucienne Reichardt, who held the flag during the ceremonies. Invocation was given by the Rev. Christopher Keller and short speechâ€"= es were made by Mrs. W. C. Egan, the pastâ€"regent who presented aâ€"flagâ€" staff to the city thirtyâ€"five years ago; Mrs. E. R. Phelps who originated the idea for the Ravinia flagstaff; and Mrs. J. F. Leaming who carried out the idea and formally presented the keys of the flag to Mr. Milton Hardâ€" acre, president of the East Park board. Mrs. R. L. Sandwick led the Salute to the Flag after which the regent, Mrs. Kellogg Speed, introduced Mayor E. B. Metzel who made a fitting and beautiful response for the town, emâ€" phasizing the thought of Honorable Peace. After the singing of America, led by Mr. Orrin Keller, accompanied on the cornet by George Hinn of the Boy Scouts, the services were brought to a close with the retirement of the Fife and Drum corps. Ts ols Following the dedication the first regular meeting of the Children of the American Revolution was held at the home of James Garnettâ€" on Lindenâ€"avenue. â€"â€"Nineteen children were present for an indoor picnic lunch and a short business meeting which was followed by games and much fun and laughter.
