THEIR HUMAN SIDE

When the House meets this afternoon
after the ceremonies in honor OF Gen.
John J. Pershing the members will find
a new silk flag hanging over the Speak
er's chair. This replaces a silk flag
which was presented either by the Betsy
Ross chapter Of the D. A. R. or by the
descendants of Betsy Ross. On this
point the records are not clear.
The new flag is the gift of the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tions and William Tyler Page, clerk
of the House, at whose suggestion the
gift was made, has prepared resolu-
tions which will be offered, to pre-
sent tho old flag which was draped
over the Speakers desk during the
war congress to the d. A. X. for
their memorial museum.
The following letter to the House
of Representatives from Mrs. George
Thacher Guernsey. president general
of the National Society, d. A. r., will
be read to the House:
1T having come to the knowledge
of the president general of the
National Society of the Daughters OF
the American Revolution that an
American flag presented to the United
states House OF Representatives some
years ago by one of the chapters of
the society has become so solled and
worn as to be unsigh.ly, the matter
was brought to the attention of the
board of management of the National
Society. d. A. r., by the president
general. BY unanimous consent of
the board it was voted that a new
flag be given by the National Society
to the House of Representatives. 1t
is with great pleasure, therefore, that
the H.tional Society of the DauSh-
ters of the American Revolution pre-
sent to the United States House OF
Representatives a flag to be hung in
its august chamber. May this symbol
of freedom inspire every member OF
the House of Representatives.
Very sincerely.

and are old acquaintances. Most of
the shooting also was done In his
district and not far from his home.
But Jimmie" Gallivan took no part
In the Boston strike. after having
pleaded with the officers in advance
not to strike. He heard their own
attorney, with whom he occupies Of
noes in Boston, urge them not to
strike. The attorney is John p. Fee
ney, who was mayor of Woourn when
he was only twenty-one and served
six years.
Mr.. Gallivan says that most of the
trouble was started by irresponsible
young fellows and the excitement and
shooting were because the people
didn't know enough to stay at home
where they belonged. He himself
didn't go out any night after o'clock.

Ceremonies Twice Postponed.

The formal exercises in connection
with the flag-hanging have been
postponed twice. Sunday was the
anniversary of the writing of "The
Star Spangled Banner by Francis
Scott Key, and as the House did not
meet it was then intended to have
the ceremonies yesterday. the 132d an
niversary of the adoption of the Consti-
tuition. 1t was finally decided that the
exercises should follow the Pershing
celebration today.
1t happens that today is the
11Sth anniversary of the laying of
the corner stone of the Capitol. On
that occasion George Washington
marched up to the Capitol with the
Masons. wearing his apron as mem
Der of the Alexandria Lodge, and helped
to lay the corner stone.
When Betsy Ross Flag Was Placed
1t was on March 2. 1901. that the
"Betsy Ross" flag was placed over
the Speakers desk. 1t happens that
the resolutions adopted at that time
also were written by William Tyler
Page, now clerk of the House. who
was then clerk Of the committee on
accounts. Those resolutions present.
ed the flag which was then displaced
to the United States Department of
Agriculture. to be placed in the de-
partment museum. This was done
because the old flag represented
native agricultural product. 1t had
been presented by the Women's SILK
Culture Association of the United
States, which was established In
Philadelphia in 1880. The flag was
made from native silk by the women
of the California section of the ma
tional association. It hung over the
Speakers desk from January %, 1885.
until 1901, when it was removed be-
cause the laws required a flag bear
ing two new stars to represent the
new states of Arizona and New Mex1-
CO. The California silk flag had.
therefore, hung in the House during
the war with Spain.

YEARS CHANGEvTHE
COUNTY INSTITUTE
Teachers Reer Dressed Than Decade Ago and Many of
Then. Now Paid by State Come to County
Seat in Automobiles

Chambcrsburg, Pa. Nov. 10. -
With the 65th annual session of the
Franklin county teachers institute
in progress in the Orpheum Theater
with over 400 teachers attending, the
pretty school marin is here. The
gathering does not include Wayneso-
boro's teachers. Four years ago the
Waynesboro educators took the no
ton they would not attend the in
stitute held in Chambersburg but
would hold n local institute, which
the code permits, and so they play Il
lone hand and have a little "stoct'
all their own, later in this month.
Institute now is no more like the
good old institutes of ten years or
more ago than the pedagogues OF
to-day are like the school marms OF
those days. Then the girl teachers
came to town in wooden knit hoods,
calico dresses maybe, and decidedly
back number styles in dresses and
millinery. Now the town girls can
get good tips in fashion from the up
to-date outfits of the DANES from
Warren, Anderson, Path Valley or
other remote districts and one might
easily miss a guess as to the habitat
of a woman teacher il he took the
point from her garb.
These women, and they are not
all girls in their teens, make good
wages and buy their clothing either
