SAID TO BE WOMAN
 WHO MADE THE FIRST
 CONFEDERATE FLAG

WILSON, N. C., Aug. 19. - Mrs. Rebecca Winborne, 87 years old, who died recently is said to have been the woman who made the first Con federate flag.
 The banner, designed by Captain Orren Randolph Smith of Henderson N. C., was made by Mrs. Winborne when she was Miss Rebecca Murphy, at Wilson in February, 1861. A sis ter refused to aid in making the flag. it is said, because she was engaged to a Northern Army officer. few weeks after the flag was completed it was adopted by the Confederate Congress at Montgomery, Ala, as the standard of the Confederacy. The first banner contained only sev- en stars, representing the number of States that had seeded, but this humber was soon increased to elev. en by the withdrawal of other States from the Union. By an act of the Confederate Congress it was named 'The Stars and Bars"
 At a. reunion of Confederate vet erans at Norfolk Va, in 1918, Cap tain Smith explained the meaning of the various colors in the flag as follows:
 "The idea of my flag I took from the Trinity. The three bars were for the Church, State and Press, all bound together by field of blue (the heavens over alb, bearing a star for each State in the Confedera, tion. The seven white stars, all the same Size, were placed in circle, showing that each State had equal rights and privileges. irrespective of size or population.

WOMEN LABORERS WITH THE SHOVEL
 ARE MAKING GOOD

LONDON, Aug. 20-Women have outclassed men in certain work in British ship yards and more of them are being added to the shipbuilding forces as rapidly as possible.
 At Lord Furness' shipyards on the Tees seven hundred women are work ing as with spades and shovels, on extensions. Some of the women have been assisting in the building of a temporary railway at the yards and others laying concrete platforms on which the keels of ships will be put down.
 In preparing concrete for the keel platforms gangs of women work be side gangs of men, and in one in stance the women beat the men by four cubic yards. Numerous other incidents have been cited whereby the women outpointed the men work CTS on the same kind of work.
 There are branches of work from which women are barred. because they haven't the muscular endurance but whenever possible Lord Furness has been replacing fit. men of mili tary age with women
 At first there were many sprained ankles, due to the habit of women going to work in flimsy boots, often with worn peggtop heels. which were no use among loose soil and stones A standard low-heeled shipyard boot has now been introduced.

ARMY AMBULANCE
 CORPS MUST WAIT
 TO GET FULL CREDIT

WASHINGTON, Aug 21.-Like many other war episodes, the tel ling of the full story of the crea tion of the American army ambu lance corps must wait for peace. In 80 sections, the corps is serving behind French, English and Bel gian lines between Switzerland and it have been strung out behind the Italian trenches.
 A few additional units are com pleting training at Allentown, Pa, but with their departure, accord ing to present army arrangement, the job will be done. Future am- bulance drivers will be picked out in the prosaic but efficiency routine of the draft cantonments, and the special service, unfque in romance and effectiveness will eventually vanish
 The service came into being be- cause of the necessity for lending immediate aid in some auxiliary fashion to the fighting Allies, and because there were already at work privately raised and financed auto mobile ambulance units with Amer ican personnel, and it could absorb and enlarge. Likewise there was rush of volunteering, and an equal rush of equipment offers, from schools and colleges and places all over the United States. So the sec tions, each one consisting of 45 enlisted men, 12 automobile ambu- lances, and a lieutenant or cap tain commanding, were rapidly built up. Today there are between 5000 and 10000 men serving in the capacity While the idea did not exactly suit previous army,g plans. which call for combining ambu- lances with hospital, in unified serv- ice, it met emergency needs, and was adopted because it was already in operation, and working we'll

SOME FIGURES ON
 INCOME TAX RETURNS
 AND WHO PAID THEM

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2O.---Of the $173 100000 personal income tax collected for the fiscal year 1916, in vestors and spectators in all fields shouldered just one-third of the bur den, labor .086 per cent. of it, and the remainder came from the multi tudinous ranks of those whose in comes were chased as derived from business" and "services.
 Embraced within the latter class es is every calling from that of bank CT to the farmer with a scant acre, and in the profession, from the prac- titioner of international law to the modest chiropodist.
 Ninety per cent. of the total was derived from those fulsome incomes of more than $25,000, and 1.66 per cent. from those of the 5000 class and less, although the latter consti- tuted more than a third of the total 437,0O0 returns.
 The highest average rate of tax actually paid upons net income sub joct to tax was 129 per cent, whlcf fell upon the highest income class of $5.0OO,000 and over. Only ter individuals, however, bore the bur den of that rate. lThey, contributed s13, 3,0O0,000 to thee total tax. The average rate of tax paid declined through the income 'classes to a min mum of .28 per cent. for the $3, 900 to $4, ,000 class.
 Although incomes of $100,oOO anc more constituted only Is per cent of the total number of returns, they paid nearly threefourths of the to- tai tax. s'in
