The American flag.

The history Of the "Stars and Stripes" we
millions of freemen over whose destinies it
20 proudly and triumphantly floats. The
first national flag Of the present design was
adopted in 1918. 1t was designed by Capt.
RrED, or the Navy, and made at his house in
New York City, by his wife and number
of young ladies'. and was first hois,ed over
the Hall OF Representatives on the 18th Of
April. 1918.
Previous to the adoption Of the present
Gag by Congress, the number of stripes in
the old flag had been increased to eighteen,
according to the number of States admitted
into the Union, thus destroying the beauty
and perspicuity of the flag; and while this
ed different numbers of stripes as fancy die
tated. On the admission of Indiana into the
Union, it became necessary to add another
stripe to the national Gag, which fact made
it apparent that the original design was de-.
fective, and would be constantly subjected to
alterations. While the bill for the admis-
sion OF this State was under discussion In the
House, member from New York offered a
resolution "that q committee be appointed
to examine into the expedency of altering
the flag of the United States" The COM
mittee reported favorably, but the matter
was not acted upon during the session.
During the recess of Congress, Capt. REID
was requested to form design Of our flag SO
as to represent the increase of States, with.
out destroying its distinctive character
Capt. Reid submitted his design to the com.
mitfee at the next session, recommending
the stripes be reduced to the original number
ofthirteen States, and to form the number
of stars representing the whole number oil
States into one great star in the Union, ad.
ing one star for every new State, thus giving
the significant meaning to the flag, SYMBOL
callyexpressed, of az Pluribus Unum."
The first flag was made at small cost ant
presented to Congress by Capt. REID, te
whom Mr.. Clay, who was then Speaker o
the House. responded in one Of his best pat
riotic strains of admiration, both for the de-
sigL Of the flag and the gallant Captain
Our flag has now become time-honored, anc
like our free Constitution, there is little in il
to improve by change.
