War Department Makes Room

Especial Dispatch 10 The Call
WASHINGTON, Jan. lot was said
at the war department today that in
the rearrangement of the stars to the
union or blue field Of the national flag,
due to the sadmission OF New Mexico
into the union, the additional star will
probably be placed at the end OF the
second row and the Arizona star at
the end of the fifth row.
Under the law the change can not be
made before July next, notwithstand-
ing actual statehood will be accom-
plished before that date.
Since July 4, 1895, the Official ar
rangement Of the stars in the blue field
Of the flag. has been such as to permit
the addition Of more stars without
destroying the symmetry Of the ap-
proved design. In none of the acts Of
congress relating to the flag has the
manner of arranging the stars been
prescribed.
There was lack of uniformity in
the matter before the date named. but
after July 4, 1896, when. Utah was adj
mitted to the union. the 45 stars In
the flag were arranged in six rows,
the first. third and fifth rows having
eight stars each and the second. fourth
and sixth rows seven stars each.
In the case of Oklahoma a rearrange-
ment OF the stars was made by a joint
board of army and navy ofiicers In
1908. Under that arrangement. which
Mexico is added, there are eight stars
in the first. third. fourth and sixth
rows and seven stars in the second and
f1fth rows.

by the rapid extension of the revoiu-

Santa Cruz Schoolmarms Rise

-
SANTA CRUZ, Jan. 10. - Since the
registration of women began in Santa
Cruz county the clerks Office encoun-
tered no trouble until the school teach
ers put in an appearance to register.
Believing it was unnecessary to give
their correct ages. a body of them ap-
peared before the registration deputy
to qualify as voters. but when informed
that it would be necessary for them to
give their ages they rebelled. and, be-
fore explanations could be given in re-
gard to the registration laws, the
schoolmarms made q hasty retreat.
AS 1t will be close on to 60 days
before the law will make it uneces-
sary for the fair sex to give their ages.
it Is hardly probable that the school
teachers of Santa Cruz will muster up
sufficient courage to exercise the fran
chise they are entitled to.
