with the eagle bearing the olive
branch and the scroll with the words
sc Pluribus t'num.'
Some years ago the heralds of Eu-
rope took atfront at the familiar use
of the eagle on the fagstaffs and in
other devices of this country. These
sages felt that the United States had
no hereditary rights to the bird as a
national emblem, in the same sense,
for example. as Germany, France and
Austria have. But though the revolu-
tionary fathers used it not, long years
of undispnted possession have given to
us a prescriptive right to the eagle,
which may be said to have taken
flight from Europe with the march of
empire westward in accordance with
the well known tendency and in
stincts of the bird to seek the loftiest
heights and the boldest and most con-
SpicuOuS sites 1T could NOT survive in
swamps and in gloom, and loving
light and air and freedom, of course
came to dwell with us. where it's

where it has received warm and gen

freedom is now ours, and looking

There are few subjects more direct
~ and Immediately associated with
an the soulful qualities of man than
that OF national emblems. Around
them clusters every patriotic inspira-
non, and the moment that the EN-
biem of ones country is honored or
dlshonored there arises within us a
sensation either of rejoicing or of sor-
row. 1t is sensation which pro-
ceeds from the very soul and is un-
a1fected by time or distance or by for
mer relations or amenity. We cannot
tell how it is that a simple design or a
Piece OF bunting produces the feeling
Wnlch sometimes overcomes the ten
derest passions of humanity. and un-
der the influence of which men tear
themselves away from wives and
children and home and make common
cause to ally themselves in it's defense,
sometimes even with races whom they
hate. Their national emblem is the
one thing that draws them together,
and though lifeless and silent no flash
OF mind or power of tongue has such
charm of eloquence. 1t fires the blood

1t was so from the beginning, and
modern nations differ i'm no respect in
their devotions to emblems to thoes
of antiquity.
Nothing living is below the eagle in
his natural habitat and he alone of all
birds can gaze with undimmed eye
upon the face. of.the sup itself. Per-
cival, in his address to the eagle, thus
salutes it:
Bird of broad and sweeping wing.
Thy home is high in heaven,
Where wide the storm their banners fling
And the tempest clouds are riven.

mans, adopted the eagle, We're the

but tol Charlemagne the distinction
belongs of having adopted the eagle
as symbol of imperial power and of
the self-contained and awakened life
of a people. He also used she-wolf.
and was the first also to use the ORR
famine. But the spirit of Christiani-
tX which was strong in Charlemagne's
court, somewhat discouraged the
eagle as an emblem. 1t substituted
something, whenever possible, that
was less soul-stirring and more en-
blematic of submission, such as flow
ers, crosses and saints. These devices,
however, began to disappear again
with the age of heraldry. 1t was af
ter Charlemagne, and probably in
consequence. of the desire to dscour-
age the independence for which he
stood, that the eagle became the em-
blem Of human freedom as we'll as of
imperial power. In metaphor the ca
gle is now the first emblem of free
dom to every people.

Most of the nations that Charlie
magne ruled have since his time also
adopted the eagle as national en-;
blem. Austria, Germany and Russia
have each selected this bird. But in
Charlemagne's day the Germans used
serpent and lion for their sym
