y FLAGS T

Resolved, that the flag Of the thir.
teen United States be thirteen stripes,
alternate red and white; that the
union be thirteen stars, white in a blue
field, representing a new constella-
tion." These words brought the flag
into official being--a resolution of con-
sress, adopted in Philadelphia on June
IA. 1777. Yet a whole year earlier
there had been a flag, the n sewed
by the devoted fingers of Betsy Ross,
the Young Philadelphia who
had made it at the suggestion of a
committee from congress, accompan.
led by General Washington, from
rowed.
The flag went into battle for the
first time at BraEdywine, September
II, 1777, and on February IA. 177S, re-
cetved the first salute from a foreign
power when the ship Ranger. COM
manded by Paul Jones, was saluted by
the French in Qu1beron bay. France.
At length came Vermont and Kentucky
into the union and two more stripes
and two more stars were added to our
banner on May /. 1875. So it contin-
ned for twenty-three years. by which
time Ave more states had entered the
galaxy of commonwealth. And then.
on April 4, 1918, the flag was fixed at
thirtean stripes again, but with twenty
stars, one to be added on July 4 for
each new state thereafter. And Hi
nois. admitted in December OF the
anne year. was the first to set a new
star in the blue field where today are
forty-eight.-Word Magazine.

RISE TO YOUR FEEL,

How many persons rise to their feet
when America or the Star Spangled
Banner is played in a church, a play
house or at an open air concert which
they are attending? Or a flag is un-
furled?
We, as Americans, do not do 1t. We
are beginning to learn how and the
idea" is spreading rapidly. But, the
thing about it all is that 1T should not
be an idea; something everybody Is DO
ing Just now and to be forgotten to-
morrow. It should be as instructive as
1t Is to shoot frecrackers on the
Fourth Of July or exchange presents at
Christmas time.
They are II songs ana we snoulu
revere them. They were written about
our country and we should respect II
through them. Every soldier must sa-
lutte his flag when she passes by and he
is always at attention when the Star
Spangled Banner is played. 1t IS a
part OF his training.
It should be for all OF us. 1t is a
little thing to do; but a mighty Dig
thing Is the motive which prompts 1t.
Other countries do not forget their
flag mol their songs. Is there any rea'
son why America should?

MISSED THEIR CALLING.

The anti-tipping law and the hve
year closed season IN quail are just
simple. silly whims for which a legis'
lature can be forgiven.
But when it enacts a law that says
every community in the state shall
vote as to what games or amusements
shall be allowed in that community
that legislature is enacting malicious
and vicious legislation.
That is the re~incarnation Of the old
mulct liquor law. If there was ever
a scheme invented that could work up
to any higher degree all the spite,
hate and prejdice In a community than
a mulct law could, it has never been
made a matter Of record.
Now that the state has just got rid
of that hideous monster, up hobs the
brilliant effort to put in its, place a law
that can fill no other purpose than to
stir up strife. There are a few good
men in the legislature. but the evil
dence Is conclusive that some OF them
are not naturally adapted to the Job.
