Union Jack.

THE STAR sPANGLED BANNER"
explains itself; likewise the "Tri-
color" Of France. But who put the
Jack in Union Jack?
This curious term, which is the only
name BY which We know the British
flag, has been the subject Of much
surnlise and its history is unique.
In ancient times. every English SOL
der in the field wore the protecting
"jaque" or surtout lover alb, which
was garment of padded leather, in
terspersed with pieces of plate armor
bearing upon the breast the crimson
cross of st. George.
When the soldiers boarded ship,
their jaques were placed next to each
other along the bulwarks. in the same
way that the Romans arranged their
shields on board their galleys.
So, the line OF jaques afforded the
men protection against the arrows of
their adversaries on the water and by
the device upon their outer side pro-
claimed the nationality Of the ship
an important consideration-sinc ex-
cepting the Kings own ship, which
flew the royal arms on a silken sail,

 Mrs. Blanche Peterson, new super intendent at the Beloit school, charged that under past conditions the girl inmates, who are all under 16 years of age, were kept in con- stant terror of having the operations forced upon them: that girls were sterilized without their own or their parents consent for such reasons as displays of temper.
 Mrs. Peterson said that when she took office, she found p more girls scheduled for sterilization although none were diseased or imbecilic, which are the only grounds for ster- ilization under state law. She said that records showed that parents of at least 10 of the girls had objected before the operations, but the girls were sterilized anyway.
 Removed to Hospital
 For sterilizing the girls were taken from the correctional school to the state hospital for venereal diseases at Lansing. Dr. John H. Outland of Kansas City performed 6l of the op- erations for $25 each.
