Making the Flag

" HE largest American flag in the
world. herewith illustrated. was
exhibited last year for the first
time in Denver. 1t was design
cd as an ornament for the building
used for Grand Army encampments
and other great meetings. and it COW
ers almost the entire front of the huge
structure. 1t is lis feet in length. 90
feet In width and has stars two feet
across. The stripes are four feet two
inches in width, and there are 1.450
yards of bunting in the flag. The in
tention at first was to have the flag
Ing, but no pole of sufficient strength
could be obtained, the bunting weigh
Ing $50 pounds.
You may be interested in learning
how such big flags are made. The
bunting comes in huge rolls of solid
colors, and the first step is to cut it
into strips. some red, others white.
Experienced hands do this work. These
stripes are then passed to the hands of
girls. who sew them on machines of
special manufacture that are unlike
those of the patient housewife. The
lock stitch at the rate of 2,400 minute
is the rapidity with which they are
sewed, the thread being fed from
spools that hold 24,000 yards.
There is no stitching more faultless
than that on the silk flag, even though
1t is accomplished faster than any
other sewed by machinery. There are
no skipped stitches, fact proving
that the ingenuity of the machine is
aided by the skill of the girls, whose
duty it is to see that the stripes of the
flag never stray from the straight and
narrow way that crosses the table, on
which thousands of yards of silk and
bunting travel annually. The stripes
of the flags now being sewed together
by the aid of electricity, the ends of
the flag are hemmed, not broad hem.
but a narrow one, so finely done that
it would take the eye of an expert to
distinguish it from a sewage
Now the flag is ready for the union,
blue field upon which sparkle forty
five bright diamond-lke stars, "a star
for every state" The stars are five
pointed, and each point is precisely
like the other. No hand can ever be-
come so skilled as to have every point
a counterpart of the other, and for this
reason the stars are cut out by dies

that never make mistakes. The white
cloth Is folded in forty-five thicknesses
and placed beneath the die. Every
time the ponderous press comes down
the sharp steel cuts forty-five stars. a
whole constellation. The rapidity with
which the stars are created depends on
the agility and skill of the workman in
removing the cloth.
Long rows of girls at each side of
long tables, covered with blue cloth,
are always ready for the stars as soon
as they are handed to them. 1t is the
task of these people to place the five
pointed emblems of statehood on the
familiar blue fields, feat not so easily
accomplished as might be imagined.
The position of the stars must not vary
even a sixteenth of an inch. The stars
differ in magnitude to correspond with
the dimensions of the different flags,
and each size has its ratio of position.
The stars Of the union on every flag
are arranged in six rows alternating
eight and seven.
After they are placed In position the
hasters are summoned, who after ac-
comprising their task pass the stars
and cloth to the girls. who sew them
firmly in place with an artistic stitch
at the same rate of speed that the
stripes were linked together. The I'M
ion, as the field with its starry clusters
is called, passes TO the trimmers. who
remove the basting threads and the
stray pieces of silk and wool. After
the unions are properly dressed they
