when the north and south were united on February 12 at the abdication of the Manchu dynasty, the yellow dragon finally passed out of existence, and the rainbow, or five-colored flag. became the national ensign of the newly es-
 tablished republic, representing the unity of the five great races which live within its territory. The five colors are red, yellow, blue, white and black, representing respectively the Chinese (Hanren), the Manehus, the Mongols, the Mohammedans, and the Tibe- tans. The five stripes of five different colors are also interpreted to mean the five fundamentals of Confucius, name ly, benevolence, righteousness, cour- tesy, wisdom and faith.
 The unique feature of the Chinese national flag is that it's five horizontal stripes of five different colors signify not only the unity but also the equali- ty of the five great races brought un- der the republican regime. It pro- claims to the world that the citizens of the republic are now firmly united under a democratic government, CO., operating to safeguard the interests and promote the welfare of the Chinese nation.

We were honeymooning in Arizona. Of course we had our ever-faithful camera with us.

My wife and stopped in front of the squaw, and, knowing an Indians su- perstition about being photographed, we hesitated. Just then the proprietor of the store in front of which she was sQuatting opened the door and in- Quired of him: Do you think she would object to our taking snapshot of her?' He said heldidn't know, that we might try it, and while we were discussing the situation the squaw spoke up in excellent English and with decided gestures: "No, don't care to have my picture taken."-Ex- change.

China's New Flag

The history of the national flag Of the republic of China (Chunghua Mingkuo) dates back, says the Chris tian Science Monitor, to 1912, when the five-coTored, or rainbow flag, was adopted by the republican government as it's national standard.
 During the existence of the Manchu dynasty the yellow dragon was the na- tional ensign of the Tatsing empire. While the yellow ground represents the imperial color, the dragon sym bolizes the personality of the emperor. Such imperialistic sign was, of course, not adaptable to republican ideas and institutions.
 On October 10, 1911, the revolution ary war at Wuchang raised as it's mill tary standard a flag of blue ground and white center, signifying a white sun in the blue sky. A flag with five horizontal stripes of five different colors was, however, used by the pro- visional government, which was set up at Ranking on January 1. 1912. But
