Changes IN the flag.

At the beginning all was choas in the
flag business of the revolution. Each
colony used it's own flag till the regular
armies were formed; then special army
flags were used, and by and bY sort of
uniformity became apparent, Finally,
after much discussion, the continental
Congress on June Il, l777. passed this
resolution:
"Resolved, That the flag of the thir-
teen United States be thirteen stripes.
alternate red and white; that the union
be thirteen stars, white, in blue field,
representing new constellation"
This was confirmed by the first Con-
gress under the constitution, but the
admission into the Union, after the
establishment of the present govern
ment, of Vermont and Kentucky as
new states caused the number of stars
and stripes to be increased to fifteen
each, and the subsequent addition of
five other states led to the following
enactment, which is still in force, ap-
proved on April 4, 1918:
IAN act to establish the flag of the
United States.
BE it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives Of the Omitted
States of America in Congress assem-
bled: That from and after the 4th day
of July next the flag of the United
States be thirteen horizontal stripes,
alternate red and white; that the union
be twenty stars, white, in blue field.
''Sec. 2. And be 1t further enacted,
That on the admission OF every new
state into the union one star be added
to the unicn of the flag; and that such
addition shall take effect on the 4th day
of July then next succeeding such ad-
missiOn.o
So there really isn't much law on the
subject, and if you want 20 use flag
with only the original thirteen stars on
it, no ones patriotic feelings Will be
burt. And whenever an American sees
this glorious ensign of his country, the
stripes recall to his mind the Dirth OF
the republic, with the events that sur
rounded 1t; the stars suggest it's Won
derful development OF size, III re-
sources and in power; and, in homage
to the national grandeur and protective
authority which it represents, where
eyer he behoIds it-whether in mid
ocean floating at the head of passing
ship, or waved aloft in the streets OF

a patriotic feeling of flial love and

Important to Know.

The following rubrical information
concerning low, high and solemn high
Masses Of requiem, is of Importance to
Catholics generally, very crude ideas
being entertained by some people re-
garding the matter. Non Catholic
papers make ludicrous mistakes regard
ing the ceremonial of the Church, and
even our Catholic exchanges sometimes
get terms mixed as regards Mass being
1'said,' celebrated" or sung"
In the first place it is to be observed
chat as regards Masses Of requiem, a
low Mass is said; a high Mass. ami
yersary or months mind, is celebrated;
a solemn high Mass is sung.
A low Mass of requiem cannot be said
on Sundays, or within the octave of
Epiphany, Easter, Pentecost, Corpus,
Christi, Nativity, Ash Wednesday,
Holy Week, Vigil OF Epiphany, Pente-
cost Nativity and on Doubles or days in
which the Office of the feast follows. OF
is combined with the: *:feria (rltes,) said
for saint Of the highest rite. AS these
doubles occur frequently, a low Mass
of requiem may not be said for weeks
at time. MI.
A high Mass of requiem, anniversary
or months mind, is inhibited from be-
ing celebrated on the Nativity, Epiph-
any, Easter, Ascension, Pentecost, Cor
pus Christi, Feasts of"*the Assumption,
Immaculate Conception, St. John, ST.
Joseph, SIS. Peter. and Paul, three last
days of Holy Week, feast of the patron
IF the particular church, and on all
lays on which by Apostolic Indult a
least, the Forty Hours Devotion for
example, is transferred.
The ordinary Mass of the day can be
offered for the repose of souls and a
funeral Mass can be said or celebrated
on Sunday, provided==it does not take
the place of any ordinary Mass. Pas
tors and their clergical assistants are
sometimes, in cases of necessity and by
special permission, obliged to say two
ordinary Masses, but generally speak
ing, funeral Mass on Sunday is seldom
said or celebrated, unless guest priest
is present.
AS regards the terms ordinary,
simple, semi-doubles and doubles, the
ordinary is not commemorative of a
saint; the simple is commemorative OF
saint of the lowest rite, and semi
doubles, like to the doubles, of saints
of the highest rite.

Easily Americanlzed.

Wright County Times: The North,

Irish get larger share of the offices
than they are entitled to--much more
than the Scandinavians. The North
should remember that the Irish are born
politicians, and even before they land
on our shores they have some Office in
view. and seem to succeed in getting it.
No people become SO easily American
lied as the Irish, and their wit, shrewd-

MUSINGS RY TIE DEEM.

The golden chain blooms once again,
The golden sun CLEANS, too;
The river shines as once it did,
The skies smile just as blue;
The rhododendrons crimson tints
Flash through the woods deep green;
But where art then who wandered once
With me beside the Deen =?
Last eve stood upon its banks,
And fancied as stood
Thy beaming eyes smiled on me still.
From out that shining flood;
watched the waters slow bright sweep,
And dreamed of thee again
All, me !alone on them gazed,
For thou vert distant then F.!
Some other streams with thoughts of thee.
Blend ever in my heart
Some streams that of my memory
Shall always form part:
But one there is beyond the rest
That ever keeps it green.
Along whose banks we wandered once
The sunlit, laughing Deem
I've dreamed of rivers far away,
In fairer lands than this;
I've seen the sun in fancy climes
I'll tiCplc glory KISS
I've roamed in thought where castles lowered,
Midst woods Of beauty wild,
And breathed sweet flowers Of strange perfum
Where skies forever smiled
But none of these e'er brought to me
face-a voice. love;
Not all their beauties round my heart
The deep, sweet gladness move.
That once knew that fair, bright hour,
When meath the golden chain
We stood together-thou and I,
Beside the sunny Deen
Though long or short my life may be,
Though bliss or woe be mine
That bygone hour, thy radiant smile,
My heart will ever shrine
And for their sake each sunny beam
Has dearer grown to me-
For sun can never shine again
That will not speak Of thee F!
All years may pass, and time dispel
The dreams Of happy hours;
And fancies vanish at the mist,
Or fade like broken flowers
But midst the crumbling ruins pile,
Midst Withered hopes dead sheen,
Shall shine one memory fai: and pure,
Beside the golden Deem /!
