Flag of the United States.

Benjamin Franklin-with two others were chosen by Congress to create national flag. They met and discussed the matter fully and finally decided upon the kings colors" as Union, re- united with thirteen alternate stripes or red and white, showing that although tho colonies fought against Englands tyranny they still acknowledged her soyereignty." The flag was a combina- ton of the crosses of St. George and St. Andrew in the upper corner of blue field, bordered by the thirteen stripes and was A blending of all the colony flags, which with one exception had one or more of the chosen colors-red, white and blue. The flag was first raised by Wash ington January 2. l776 at his headquarters at Cambridge, Mass, and received salute of thirteen guns and thirteen cheers. In the spring of 1T1-one year appointed the committee with authority to design a national flag. Washington
 went with the committee to see Betsy
 Ross of Philadelphia and they employed
 her to make the flag from a drawing
 given by Washington. When It was
 finished it was adopted by Congress June l4th, l7T7-now known as Flag Day. Tn July, 1897 the "Elizabeth Ross Monument Association" was organized and incor- porated for the purpose or pulluihs monument to Elizabeth Ross, the maker of the American flag. Up to that date | this was the first time in the history or | our country when 1t was proposed to erect A monument to the memory of a patriotic woman.
 Since the organization of the "Daught- CTS of the American Revolution" monu- ments have been built in memory of a number of brave Revolutionary heroines. | Can any one tell us if the Elizabeth Ross monument has ever been finished?

THE WOODMEN PICNIC.
The Occasion Was a Success, and
Was Largely Attended.

The picnic given by the local camp
of the Woodmen of the World at Boil
toms mill on Wednesday was one OF
the most successful affairs of the kind
in which a Dawson crowd has ever
participated. In addition to the Wood.
men and their families many others
attended, as a cordial invitation had
been extended to citizens in general.
All arrangements had been preyi-
ously made which would tend to con-
tribute to the comfort and pleasure of
the party, such as the cleaning up OF
the grove, the hanging of swings, the
construction of rustic seats, etc.
The time was very pleasantly spent
in games, fishing and other outdoor
recreations. At noon delightful din
ner was spread, and the bountiful sup
ply of edibles was done ample Justice
to by the appreciative crowd who
gathered around the improvised Ia
btes.
Soon after dinner Judge j. w. Ped
dy delivered an address on the order
of the Woodmen. He dealt in forci-
BILE manner on the benefits and growth
of the organization, and his speech
was thoroughly enjoyed by his audi
ence. After the conclusion of his ad-
dress Miss Esther Slade favored the
party with delightfully."- rendered and
appropriate recitation.
The time for departure was hailed
with regret, and the scene of the days
outing was said goodbye to with the
consciousness that they had spent one
of the pleasantest days of their lives.
The local camp of Woodmen is one
OF the most hourishlng orders in this
section. 1t numbers eighty members,
its growth within the past few months
having been phenomenal.
