THE THIRTEEN STRIPES
AS long as the states remained thir-
teen in number the original design OF
the circle of stars was all right. but
when in 1871 Vermont and in 1902
Kentucky were taken into the Union 1t
was decided TO arrange the stars IN
the form of one huge constellation.
In 1895 1t was decided to add a
stripe as well as n star for each state
which came into the Union, conse-
quently in that year Vermont and Ken
lucky were marked on the flag, n by
a white and the other by a red stripe.
Some prophet. looking ahead. saw
that this plan Of adding a stripe as
well as a star for each state added to
the Union would cause a constant
changing of the flag, and as a great
growth Of the country was foreseen.
it was soon appreciated that the flag
would in a few years become too large
and ungainly.
A committee was elected in 1872 by
congress to decide upon a permanent
design for the flag. and the result was
that the original thirteen stripes were
again used. the stars arranged on the
blue field in the form of a square with
one constellation for eaeh new state.
In 1918 this plan was adopted by
congress and the flag with thirteen
stripes and stars corresponding in num-
Der to the states in the Union became
the established emblem.
Mrs. Reid. wife OF the famous sea
captain, made the first flag of the new
design July 4, 1918. The number of
stars was twenty, Illinois being admit
ted that year.
This design. adopted in 1918. is the
I An4CAltoh hdS VI todaJ WIN hC aoaA-
ton of stars representing the total
number of states-forty-eight.
1t was not until after the civil war
that the custom now prevailing of
making American flags from American
bunting came into practice. For eighty
nine years after the stars and stripes
were adopted they We're made from
foreign material because. as there was
no protection duty on flag bunting.
American manufacturers did not care
to compete with the English In the
bunting enterprise In 1865 congress
put a duty of AZ per cent on bunting,
and In a few years thousands Of looms
were engaged in making bunting TO be
converted into flags. The first Ameri-
can flag made OF American bunting was
holsted over the capitol at Washing
ton In February. 1866. and was the
gift of General Benjamin +. Butler.
who. at the request Of the secretary CT
war. first undertook TO make a good
flag bunting In this country.

Then from her mansion In thensun
She called her eagle bearer down
And gay into his mighty hand

niece of the colonel, Mrs. Betsy Ross,
of the first national emblem.
Betsy Ross, who was an upholsterer
in Philadelphia, undertook the work.
and in a few days a beautiful star
spangled banner was ready to be un-
furled. She had made one alteration
in the design submitted by Washing
ton. The general had made his stars
six pointed, us they were on his coat
of rms. Betsy Ross made hers with
five points, and five points have been
used ever since. For several years
Mrs. Ross made the flags for the gov
eminent under contract.
The stars and stripes were used first
for military service at Fort Stanwix,
renamed Fort Schuyler, now Rome, n.
Y, In 1T77. On Aug. . of that year
the fort was besieged by the English
and Indians. The garrison was with
out a flag. but one vas made in the
fort.
The red stripes were of a petticoat
furnished by n woman. the white
stripes and stars were supplied by an
officer. who donated his shirt, and the
blue was a piece of Colonel Peter
Ganseyoort's military cloak. Three
women worked on the flag, and it was
raised to victory when. on the I'D of
August. the red men and the English
were defeated at the fort.
