WAR COLOR IN MOST FLAGS
Martial RED Conspicuous in Europe
and Slightsd in New
World.

II is entirely Appropriate, OF course,
that red--ths war color-should appear so
frequently In the flags Of the various
nations. OF the flags OF the countries Of
the eastern hemisphere there is only one
that OF Greece-which does not show the
martial color.
In the western hemisphere, however we
find several standards not showing red
The flags Of the the Argentine Republic,
Brasil Nicaragua, Guatemala, Uruguay
and Honduras, contain no red.
In this country there is no red In the
Union Jack nor in the flags OF the secre-
Sary OF the navy the admiral OF the navy,
the rear admiral senior in rank and, the
rear admiral junior In rank.
Red appears IN the pennant of the. rear
admiral second In rank and the pennant
OF the revenue marine. The United States
mail flag also shows red. and that color
IN also found in the pennants for the ves-
sells Of the lighthouse service, the yacht en-
sign. the ensign OF the revenue marine, the
presidents and the secretary of wars
standards.
The flags that are almost entirely red,
except for the devices shown thereon. are
those OF Austria, Hungary. Egypt. Morocco
and Japan. The flag OF Turkey is practi-
eally OF a solid red. After red the pre-
vAiling color in flags Is blue. -Harper's.
