OUR FLAG
Continued from page y

Continued from page y
to write: That flag and l are twins,
born the same hour from the same womb
of destiny. We can not be parted in life
or in death. So long as we can float, we
shall float together. If we must sink, we
must sink, we shall 60 down as one!'
There was no clause in this law of
Congress reading" The stars shall be
placed in a circle" as has been enormously
stated by some so-called historians of the
flag and copied by many other chroniclers.
And no such flag as that called the Betsy
Ross Flag" was ever authorized, saluted,
or recognized by any foreign Government.
In the Betsy Ross legends the period be-
tween May 20 and June S, 1916, is given
as the time when General Washington,
Robert Morris, and Colonel Ross sat over
cup of tea" in the Ross parlor, planning
the Star-Spangled Banner. No authentic
records of such committee, established by
Congress, can be found anywhere in the
Congressional archives. AS a matter of
fact, Washington wrote to General Put
nam on June 6, 1776,- to have the colonels
of regiments "select colors for their regi-
ments," showing that at that time there
was no thought in his mind of establishing
national flag to be carried by the Army.
1t happens, moreover, that Colonel Ross,
although member of Congress at a later
date, was then in the Pennsylvania legis-
lature, which did not authorize the dele
gates to Congress to discuss the question of
separation from the mother country until
June 10, 1875. Robert Morris was the
secretary to the Secret War Committee of
Congress; and it is interesting to note in
passing that his instructions to naval COM
manders, written about this time, are re-
plete with stirring words to uphold the
honor of the AagE which the Army was
never called upon to do until the year
1S41.
The one and only national flag ever
established by Congress, with union of
checker-board design, has, from the very
dawn of liberty been carried to victory
by the Navy on the seven seas of the
world, without blemish and without essen
tial change.
We have already seen whence came the
stripes which adorn our national banner !;
but why the stars representing new
constellation" were adopted is not quite so
clear. The writer, however, strongly
favors the views of the distinguished
author, Schuyler Hamilton, on this sub
ject, as published by him in one of the
earliest histories of the flag. He states
that the idea was taken from the constela-
ton Lyra (or Harp, which in the hands
of Orpheus represents harmony, "because
the Tyre is the symbol of harmony and
unity among men,"
In confirmation of this view Hamilton
goes on to quote from letter written il
1852 by the late Charles Francis Adams
= in which he placed on record the fact tina
his, father, John Quincy Adams, caused th'
Tyre to be introduced as a companion-piec'
with the American eagle on passports is
sued by our Government. In this lette
Adams quotes a Latin verse descriptive o
the significance of Lyra as the reason 70

Says His Prescription
Has POWerfuL Influence
OUer Rheumatism
Druggists Guarantee First Pint Bottle
of AIlenrhu to Show the Way to
Complete Recovery.

Mr.. James H. Allen, Of Congress
Avenue, Rochester, N. Y, suffered
for years with rheumatism. Many
times this terrible disease left him
helpless and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac
cumulated impurities, comm only
called uric acid deposits, are dis
solved in the joints and muscles and
expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consult
ed physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded prescription
that quickly and completely banished
every sign and symptom of rheuma.
tism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery,
which he called ALLENRHU, to
others, who took it, with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let
sufferers everywhere know about his
discovery through the newspapers.
He has therefore instructed the
Palace Pharmacy and druggists
everywhere to dispense Allenrhu with
the understanding that il the fr
pint bottle does not show the w,
to complete recovery he will gladly
return your money without comment.
