"True Blue" and the "Blue Ribbon"
The expression true blue is handed
down from the Scotch Covenanters Of
the Seventeenth century, who chose
blue as their emblem in opposition to
the royal red.' The Covenanters were
a group bound ty series Of covenants
to uphold the Presbysterian forms and
doctrines of faith. Thus true blue was
applied originally to a loyal Presby-
terrain. The blue ribbon, always the
reward Of the winner in race or c9n-
test, originated in the use Of blue
kbbon as the distinguishing badge Of
the knights Of the Garter, an order
founded by Edward III.
