The legend goes that the monks,

came to a place where the body
stuck fast and resisted all efforts to

magnetic force had clamped it to

The revelation came. 1t happened
that woman passed in search of
her lost COW and they heard another

First American FIar

The tradition of the first American
flag is that in May. TIT, Washing
ton, accompanied by two OF his Off
GERS, called upon Mrs. Ross, who
operated an upholstering establish
ment, continuing business left at
the death OF her husband, to make a
flag OF their design. and that this
was the first American flag of the
official pattern, adopted June IA, f777.
The matter is in dispute through
claims that flag of the same, or
nearly the same, design had been
nsAd hafnra. There r. sso1rssr rivalry
for the honor associated with the
origin of the flag; and confusion
wrought by painters and colonial
story writer's, who drew upon their
imaginations to add interest to the
legend, has invited the pressing of
some rather nebulous claims. There
is no historical account meeting
with such approval as to warrant
the assertion that it is the truth.

The civilized world is against
Russia in her aggression against Fin
land and practically every nation
that dares is lending the heroic lit
tie country every assistance. Before
Russia is through, she will have to
fight against more modern equip
ment and more efficient armies than
her own Men and other sinews of
war are flowing into Finland from
all parts of the world. 1t begins to
look as though the big bear will
find herself trapped in little Fin
land and compelled to fight the
world to extricate herself from a
situation that means defeat and dis
grace. Sooner or later Russia will
be compelled to fight the world
powers and this decisive battle may
better be fought at this time when
the world deeply sympathizes with
Finland.

preparation for. the building of a
formidable army has lead many
to wonder just how far she has

rotten politics. The Russian army
is apparently no more efficient than

We, of America, like to think of
