ties, with all the buildings, art treas

Of wounded and crippled soldiers
and of the orphans Of soldiers killed
during the war. This gift was
simply announced, as behtted the
most democratic sovereign in Eu-
rope and the "humblest citizen of
Italy," as he called himself recently
in a speech. The royal castles of
Monza and Moncalieri, the palace of
Caserta, the villas at Petraia, Cas-
tello and Poggio Cajano and the es-
tate of Coltano are included in the
gift, inspired only by gratitude
toward the men who fought for their
country
The greatest need in connection
with the relief of wounded and
permanently disabled soldiers nat
urally consisted in finding proper ac-
commodation for training schools
and asylums, and the solution of
this difficult problem has thus been
simplifed.
Probably the best known royal
residence abroad is the castle of
Monza, near Milan, where King
Humbert was assassinated. 1t was
built in 1777, by the architect Pier
martino, by order of the Empress of
Austria, Maria Theresa, for her son,
the Archduke Ferdinand. Although
originally planned as a hunting
lodge, it was converted into a beau
tifully decorated palace with gor-
geous gardens. Cardinals spent the
summer holidays in one Of it's build
ings, and during the French occu-
patton of Milan the stepson of
Napoleon / used it as his residence.

Evolution OF the
American Flag

In the early days of the Amer
lean Revolution, many different
banners were carried. However.
with the establishment of the
Continental navy, the first flag re-
presenting the united colonies was
established. This flag was first
raised by John Paul Jones on the
flagship Alfred and was made
of thirteen alternate red and white
stripes. In the upper left corner
on a field of white was the old
Union flag of England. This flag
was known as Congress Colors,
Grand Union Flag" or the First
Navy Ensign
On June Ii. III. when the
General Congress pledged their
support to the Declaration of In
dependence, the resolution was
DdSSei htSOlNed, nat tue nag VI
the thirteen United States be thir-
teen stripes, alternate red and
white; that the union be thirteen
stars, white on blue field. rep
resenting new constellation"
At first the stars were arranged in
circle in order not to give pre-
cedence to any state. Later they
changed to three rows of four. FIVE,
and four stars.
On January Is, 1894. when there
were five new states to be added
Congress enacted, That from and
after May, 1895. the flag of the
United States be fifteen stripes,
and the union be fifteen stars"
On April 4, 1878, Congress pas
sed resolution that the stripes
be reduced permanently to thir-
teen, and the union have twenty
stars, and that a new star be added
for each new state.
