While there had been no demand for

Rule Means Nothing.
In 1920 the rules committee sought
10 eliminate the intentional base on
balls from the game. SO the following
rule was pa ssed:
1t shall be Illegal for the catcher to
leave his natural position Immediately
and directly back Of the plate for the
purpose Of aiding the pitcher inten-
tionaly to give = base on balls 70 the
batsman. If the catcher shall move
out Of position prior to the time Of
the ball leaving the pitchers hand. all

game, does not wish the batsman 10

a special transport has been requested
from the United States Government
to transport it to the exposition. In
dustrial exhibits, collection of Span
ish paintings and tapestries will also
be sent. Among the exhibits which
will undoubtedly arouse great amount
of interest are the documents and
things of historical value, many of
them dealing with Spanish American
relations, which will be sent from
several ducal palaces and revealed to
! the public for the first time. Of par
ticular interest will be the famous
jewel casket owned by Queen Isabella,
the repository for the jewels which
were pawned to finance Columbus's
voyage to America.
A Spanish pavilion will be erected
to house these exhibits and an archi-
tect will soon be despatched from
Madrid to supervise its construction.
Chile and Argentine are both busily
at work on exhibition plans. Marcial
R. Candioti, Argentine Consul at Phil
adelphia, has recently reported the APP
pointment of a committee of eight
prominent Argentinians which will
assemble and make ready the Argen-
tine exhibit. This will include the rep
resentative products of the textile
and leather industries, food products,
beaten silver jewelry, agricultural
implements, steel products and speci-
mems of the arts and crafts.
According to Enrique Gallardo,
Chilean Minister. to Holland, who Wis
tied Sesquicentennial headquarters
recently on his way to his post, elab-
crate plans are being made in his
country for the Exposition. The larg
est copper mine in the world-"El
Tenitente Chuguicamata"- will be
represented by an exhibit of it's pro-
duct. Large exhibits of Chilean coal
and silver are being assembled. Nj
trates particularly will be displayed
by several Chilean companies which
produce major portion of the worlds
output in this industry. Preserved
fruits, rare woods and lumber and
mineral products will also have place
in the exhibition.
Chile is preparing a series of mo-
ton picture films especially for the
Exposition in which industrial pro-
cesses of her industries, glimpses of
native social life and views of scenery
Of Chile will all be shown.
Both Chile and Argentina are pre-
pairing large educational exhibits.

FOR SOLOMON A.
WADSWORTH THUR.

Funeral services are being con-
Quoted this afternoon at Bearcreek
and interment will be made in the
Bearcreek cemetery for Solomon Alex
Wadsworth who died at the home of
his son, Roy Wadsworth in Bear
creek, Tuesday night about 11:40
O'Clock from complication of diseases
from which he had been suffering for
about fourteen months.
The deceased was born in Vermont
May 4, 1858. In 1885 he settled in
Omaha, Nebraska where he made his
home for nine years. He then moved
to Sheridan, Wyoming where he lived
ten years. Fromberg had been his
home until he took up his residence
in Bearcreek in 1902 which was merely
settlement at that time. Mrs. Wads-
worth passed away in 1919 from after
effects of the flu. Sine that time Mr..
Wadsworth had made his home with
his son, and had always been very ac-
tive in work until the time of his last
illness. He was a stone mason by
trade.
Mr.. Wadsworth is survived by two
sons; Roy and Willis, both of Bear
creek and a daughter, Mrs. William
Simmons of Shelby.

FLORIDA LEGION
TURNS DOWN MONT
ANA'S CHALLENGE

Florida legionnaires have passed up
the challenge of the Montana legion
which offered to bet 10 acres of Treas
ure state land against 10 acres of
Florida land that the Montana depart
ment would show a greater member
ship increase in 1925 than the boom
state.
If Florida lost, Adjutant General
Howard w. Rowlan wired, the provid-
ing of 10 acres of Florida land would
bankrupt the department. His wire
to State Commander Charles L. Sher-
idan says:
"Our challange extends to depart
ments that have 5000 members in
1925. 1t also specifies December 81,
as closing date. However, we will
challenge you to have half as many
members paid up in the national treas
urer's office by midnight Of December
81, the prize to be loving cup to be
delivered to the winning department
as soon as practical after the closing
of the contest. We would rather lose
to Larry Doyles department than any
other if we lose. Ten acres of land in
Florida at this time would bankrupt
our department. No cowboy in Mon
tana can ride the orange-colored
horse. So let's go. We appreciate
your splendid cooperative spirit"

gram, is chef de chemin fer, or ma

The American Flag

When the question of selecting a
suitable flag for the Sesquicentennial
International Exposition arose it be-
came at once evident that because of
the nature of the event which the Ex-
position was to celebrate only one
standard could properly be used. This
was the flag of the United States of
America.
With few exceptions our flag is the
oldest in the world. 1t has stood sub
stantially the same for nearly $50
years, while in other lands national
emblems have changed as empires
have fallen, and vast political unheav-
ais brought with them new banners
to claim the allegiance of the popu-
lace.
Contrary to general belief the flag
of the United States was not an in
spired creation. 1t was formed from
the continental Union flag by substi-
tuting in the canton a circlet of thir-
teen stars for the two crosses-St.
Georges and st. Andrew's-of Brit
ain The stripes were already there.
George Washington described it's
making thus: eve take the star from
Heaven; the red from our mother
country, separating it by white
stripes, thus showing that we have
separated from her; and the white
stripes shall go down to posterity
representing liberty"
In the coat of arms of Washington
there were, curiously, both stars and
stripes represented, and many histor-
ians have sought to establish con-
nection between this and the concep-
ton of the flag. Except for the coin
cidence, not scrap of evidence has
ever been discovered to support this
theory, however, attractive as it is.
1t was year after the signing of
the Declaration of independence that
the first legislation for the flag was
enacted. On June IA, TIT, now cele-
brated by us as Flag Day, Congress,
The Carbon County news. [volume] (Red Lodge, Mont.) 1924-1931, 1926-01-07

sitting in Philadelphia, adopted the
following resolution:
Resolved, That the flag of the
thirteen United States be thirteen
stripes, alternate red and white; and
the union be thirteen stars, white in
a blue field, representing a new con-
stellation."
This was the first official step to-
ward the adoption of our national
emblem. The resolution was officially
published in August and the design
first promulgated by Congress on Sep
TENDER 3. Where it was first dis
played is still question of dispute,
but it flew in the breeze in the battle
of Brandywine on September IL, at
Germantown on October A, and in all
subsequent encounters. The connec-
ton of Betsy Ross with it is a beloved
legend enshrined in the hearts of
school children.
In the spring of 1875, two more
states having been added to the Union
the circle of thirteen stars was chang
ed to a square of fifteen to include the
new states. In this form it remained
for twenty-three years, and so it was
when 1t inspired Francis Scott Key to
write the immortal anthem of the Star
Spangled Banner which has become
inseparable from it in the thought of
Americans. -
The last modification of the flag was
in 1918 when, the number of states
having grown to twenty, and addi-
tional ones foreseen in the future,
President Monroe signed an act to the
effect that every new state admitted
into the Union would be recognized
on the 4th of July following its admis-
sion by the addition of new star to
the flag.
The bill was signed on April Ia,
1918, and in the 109 years that have
passed twenty-eight more stars have
appeared in the blue field, but other
wise our flag has not changed.
