The English Banner

THE early inhabitants of England, like those
i of other countries used emblematic devices
white horse. The introduction of flags into
England is ascribed to the missionary Saint
Augustine and his followers, who, after the con-
version of King Ethelbert, according to the
venerable Bede, entered Canterbury in process
sion, chanting and bearing small banners.
Since the fourteenth century the cross of
Saint George has been the emblem of the
British nation. Before that time it was worn
it came to be known as the jack" During
the bloody civil wars of the fifteenth century
it practically superseded by the roses
white and red and in 1000, by proclamation
of James l., it was finally replaced by red flag
with the jack in the upper inside corner The
red standard of Great Britain did not attain it's
present form, however, until after the union
with Ireland in 1900. By parliamentary
enactment in 1901, the present Union Jack was
brought into being by the addition of the cross
of Saint Patrick.

First Waving Flags

WAVING flags are said to have been first
w brought to Spain by the Saracens. The
from the old shields of CASTLE and Aragon.
The Austrian black and yellow were the
colors of the Holy Roman Empire. They
were adopted, so the story goes, by Frederick
Barbarossa, whose fancy was captured at a
ceremony in Mainz by the black and gold
flooring of the hall.
The crescent was originally the special mark
of Constantinople, where for centuries it was
used as Christian symbol. There it was that
the Turks first found it when they captured
the city in 1853. Even to-day it may be found
side by side with the cross on the churches in
Moscow and other Russian cities, where it is
used to indicate the Byzantine origin of the
Russian faith.

National Emb1ems

THE first Western sovereign to adopt flag
i was Clovis, King of the Franks. After his
conversion to Christianity in the fifth cen
fury he took the chape de Saint Martin as his
standard. This, according to some writer's
actually part of the cloak which the sanity
Bishop of Tours cut in two in order to share it
with a beggar at Amens. More credible
authorities, however, assert that it was the
blue flag of Saint Martins abbey.
After Clovis, the Merovingian Kings seem
to have returned to the ancient emblems They
were content to fight under eagles, flowers
crosses. or the images of saints until the time
of Charlemagne, who, if an old mosaic in the
church of Saint John Lateran at Rome is to
be believed reintroduced the blue flag en-
bellished with six red roses.
The color of the French flag was changed in
1924 when Louis the Fat carried the red ORR
famine of Saint Denis in his struggles against
the German Emperor Henry V. This con-
tinued to be the official French flag down to the
battle of Agincourt in 1913. In the meantime
the blue flag had again made its appearance.
now decorated with the feur- de-lis instead of
the roses of Charlemagne. In this form it was
carried at Acre and Crecy and Poitiers, until
in the fifteenth century it became the ban
ner of France.

frances White Flag

THE first white flag in French history was the
banner of the Virgin Mary, borne by Joan
of Arc in her heroic campaigns for the defense of
the Dauphin. A pure white flag was occa-
sionally used by Francis |. in his struggles
against the Emperor Charles ", but it did not
become the permanent royal banner until
Henry ", the first Bourbon, assembled the
throne in 1850.
The tricolor of the French Revolution was
compromise. The cockades of the revolution
lists were composed of two colors, the red of the
Paris commune and the blue of the ancient
monarchy In the troubled times just pre-
ceding the deposition and execution of Louis
XVI, Lafayette, to signify the desire of the
people for a reconciliation with their King
added the Bourbon white to the cockade. The
tricolor as a national emblem was adopted by
the convention in 1894.
Long before this, however, the tricolor had
been the national flag of Holland. The Dutch
were in fact the first to use it. When the
United Provinces gained their independence
from Spain in the sixteenth century, according
to favorite old story which cannot be anthem
ticated, they invited Henry of Navarro to
choose their colors, and he suggested orange,
blue, and white. Whether he selected this
combination or not, such were the colors of
Holland until sometime in the seventeenth
century, when the orange was replaced by red.
When William of Orange became King of Eng
land in 1905 he crossed the Channel under the
red, white, and blue.

Coach Laniers splendid work with the
team is meeting with merited success. He
has trained his men until they are ready

by the way the quarterback kick and
forward pass were used. Recovery of side
kicks proved, likewise, of advantage.
The first touchdown was made by the
High school in less than five minutes
Fierce bucks, end runs and the forward
pass figured mainly in this touchdown
The fast work continued throughout the
game and the Starkes team never had a
chance. Touchdowns were made by the
following: Estes, two; Herzield two, and
Cobbs, one.

The game of football at West End park
yesterday afternoon between the Birming-
ham High school and the Starkes Univer-
sity school of Montgomery, while alto
gether one-sided, was one of the prettiest
in which the High school team has par
ticipated this season The score was q
to in favor of the Birmingham eleven.
Although the game was decidedly
against them from the beginning the
Starkes team never became disheartened.
They we're simply out classed, aud therein
lies the reason for their defeat yesterday
afternoon The team, however, put up
clean and plucky game of bail, and had
they had the proper training the score
would not have been SO large. The lack
of practice on their part told plainly
when trick plays were attempted
The High school, on the other hand,
was in the best of condition. They have
been training hard for the past two weeks
and this hard training showed up to effect
yesterday afternoon. With the exception
OF two fumbles their work was well-nigh
flawless. All of their tricks were worked
well. The forward pass was worked re-
peatedly for good gains. The backs were
very fast and end runs for long gains
were made several times. The line held
its own on all occasions and was always
found compact and almost iinmovable.
Left Halfback Fitzpatrick was decidedly
the star for Montgomery. The work of
Bingham, up to the time he was obliged
10 retire from the game on account of
injuries received, was of "A high order He
was substituted by A. Fitzpa trick, who
replaced him creditably.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.

Yale temporarily postponing the defeat
of his team. Burr then punted out of
danger.
Another run which brought the specta-
tors to their feet, but gave no results,
was when Jones at an end run was

seemed certain. Yale, with new players,

last five minutes of the half there was
