are in straight lines. Any
schoolgirl who is able to sew can
make nag for about one-half Of what
1t will cost her at q store, and still
have stronger and more durable one
when she has 1t finished. There are
two principal ways Of proceeding In
the making of an American flag. The
one used BY most persons is to de-
termine first the width Of the stripes.
30 that II the nag IL to be made Of
silk. ribbon may be purchased Of q
standard width. From this the size
Of the nag may be determined. The
second method 10 to decide either the
width or the length Of the nag and
then compute the amount Of material
from the size decided upon.
Let us assume that we wish to
make nag from two-inch silk rib

dry goods store. Since the stripes
will be two inches wide. the width Of
the canton. or the blue field. will be
seven times two inches. or II inches.
and its length will be the same. since
the canton Of the American nag In
square. The canton Ii also one-thlrd
Of the length Of the nag. Then the
nag will be three times II inches,
which equals q inches and the width
being 10 times two inches. or 20 inches.
Thus. to use two-inch ribbon. one will
have . nag three and q half feet long
and little more than two feet wide.
Material Needed.
The next thing In to determine Just
how much two-inch ribbon must be
purchased. % that the stripes may be
made with little or no waste. There
are three full white stripes In the
complete length Of the nag. which
equals 128 inches. and added to that
will he the three short stripes, two.
thirds the length Of the nag. or "a
