The FLAG.

A flag swung high on a rampant bold,
And the soldiers saw it blow;
And the sun went down and the stars
came out,
And over the field died the battle
shout,
While the sentries paced to and fro.
A bell tolled firm in the midday air,
And the flag fluttered over the trees,
And the people gazed with proud de-
On the flag that Haunted the starry
thirteen,
High in the midsummer breeze.
The stars have grown since that far.
off day,
And the stripes are true and bright
And over the country they sweep
Gallant each stripe and gallant each
star!
Shining by day and by night.
A single bell tolled in the long ago,
To rally the brave little band
Where chimes now peel in the stiffen
ing breeze,
And shouts ring joyously over the
seas,
And flags wave over the n

first flag and all the flags of the coun-
try for nearly sixty years. Betsy
Ross, of Philadelphia, who made the
rufled shirts that Washington wore,
was selected by the committee of con-
gress to work out the design of the
flag as prescribed by congress. George
Washington, Robert Morris and a
Colonel Ross-not the husband of Bet
sy, however-were appointed a com
mittee to have this flag made. A myth
cal story is told about the refusal of
Mrs. Ross to cut the six-pointed star,
as suggested by Washington, it being
as she is reputed to have said, "the
English star and the remnant of her
aldry.' The ~five-pointed star which
she did cut is the regulation star of all
heraldry. 1t car be cut with IN snip
of the scissors, so can the four, six
and eight-pointed stars.
Although the resolution establishing
the flag was not officially promulgated
by the secretary of congress until
September 8, 1777, it seems well au-
} thenticated that the stars and stripes
were carried at the battle of the Bran
DIVINE, September II, 1777, and
thenceforward during all the battles of
the revolution.
Soon after its adoption the new flag
was hoisted on the naval vessels of
the United States.
The ship Ranger, bearing the stars
and stripes and commanded by Capt.
Paul Jones. arrived at a French port
about December /, 1777, and her flag
received on February IA, 177S, the first
salute ever paid to the American flag
by foreign naval vessels.
The flag of the United States re-
manned unchanged for about eighteen
years after its adoption. BY this time
two more states-Vermont and Ken
tucky-had been admitted into the
union; and on January 10, 1874, con
gress enacted,
llal " anu aiNNi NAi0 hA'h MY W
May, 1895, the flag of the United
States be fifteen stripes. alternate red
and white: that the union be fifteen
stars, white in a blue field"
This flag was the national banner
from 1895 to 1918, during which period
occurred the wal of 1912 with Great
Britain.
By 1918 five additional states
Tennessee, Ohio, Louisiana, Indiana
and Mississippi-had been admitted
into the union, and therefore a further
change in the flag seemed to be re-
quired.
After considerable discussion in
congress on the subject the act OF
April 4, 1918, was passed, which pro
vided,
Frst-"That from and after the 4tt
day of July next, the flag of the United
States be thirteen horizontal stripes
alternate red and white; that thu
union have twenty stars, white in
blue field"
Second-"That on the admission Of
every state into the union, one staI
be added to the union OF the flag, anc
that such addition shall take effect on
the Fourth of July next succeeding

FLAG DAY.
Appropriate Exercises Held Here
Commander Edwards Address.
INTERESTING INFORMATION.

Sunday was the one hundred and
twenty-sixth anniversary of the adop-
tion Of the Stars and Stripes as the
emblem of the United States.
The event was celebrated here in
Albuquerque in ar appropriate nan
ner, the exercises being held at the
Albuquerque college grounds, and part
of these were held indoors on account
of the weather. The Woman's Relief
Corps and the Grand Army of the Re-
public post were in attendance as well
as many patriotic citizens. The pro-
gram was carried out as printed in
The Citizen OF Saturday.
Besides Commander Edwards ad-
dress, which we print in full below,
there were remarks made by Chaplain
Thomas Harwood, Rev. Bias Chaves
and Mrs. Matte ]. Butler. Sixteen lit
tie girls gave a pretty performance of
the flag drill.
Commander Edwards address fol-
lows:
Fellow Citizens, Ladies of the Wo-
mans Relief Corps and Veterans of
the War:-A duty has been given me
one which | am lily able to perform,
but a soldier should never shirk a
duty he is detailed to perform, without
at least trying. | will try to do duty.
First you will pardon me if | shall
read briefly a little history of our flag,
after which | will relate to you a per-
sonal Renaissance of when, and on
what occasion, | saw the flag in bat
tie.
II is now a well established fact that
Flag day, the 18th of June, is one OF
the days hat all patriotic schools
should observe Loyalty. 1t was the day
on which our young nation severed
~irremediably its last connection with
England. 1t had declared itself free
and independent" nearly a year be-
fore, and had been fighting a desultory
sort of a war to back up that declara-
ton, but up to June Il, 1777, yet wav-
ing over the young colonies, was the
union jack of Great Britain, and vari-
III other emblems in which bugs and
bears and other beasts, reptiles and
vegetation from lilies to palm trees
played a part, but there was nothing
distinctly national" in the character
of any of them.
Suddenly, on June IA, 1777, there
was introduced into the congress a bill
to establish a national flag. The Ameri'
can congress that day in session in
Independence hall, in Philadelphia
Resolved, That the flag of the thir
teen united colonies be thirteen stripes
alternate red and white; that the
union be thirteen stars, white in a
blue field, representing a new con
stellation."
So much we know, and nothing
more, of how the flag came to be just
the beautiful thing that 1t is. Not a
scrap of writing or print has come
down to us to show who selected the
stripes, the stars, or the combination
of red, white and blue. There ha!
been a world of conjecture about it, bur
the fact remains that the flag We cal
"Old Glory" is both fatherless anC
motherless, so far as its colors ant
design go,
It is not difficult for one who love-
the broad stripes and bright stars o
the flag to believe that it really eam'

through. At the battle of Fredericks-
burg the command | belonged to ad-
vanced from the center of the city to
charge Marye's heights. We formed on
the last street or edge of town, and
had to cross, a high board fence. While
we were pushing the fence down a
shell from the enemy burst right at
the fence only about ten steps from
me. saw the colors go down. Sever
al of us rushed for them, another shell
came and killed three and they went
down again. Another rush for the
flag and the third shell bursted, killing
two or three more. The flag was
snatched from the dying color bearer
and on we went with the charge.
Friends, do you blame us old veter-
ans for loving our flag and our coun-
try?
