Glorious Stars
and Stripes
The ling Is the emblem of our unity,
our power, our purpose na a nation. It
speaks to us of the past. It has wit
nessed n great history. Since Its ofll
clal adoption on June 14, 3777, It has
been associated with whatever pntrl
otic Idea we worship and Is the sym
bol of the great faith to which we are
born.
"As long as men nre men that flag
chosen on June 14, 1777, Is well chosen.
It has a meaning, n message, a com
mand," says Hev. William Norman
Guthrie, who has written n book, "The
Itellglon of Old Glory," to explain the
meaning and message of America's
flag to the nations of the world.
Tho flag of the United States came
Into being more deliberately and con
sciously than other flags, such as that
of England, or France, or Spain. It
was chosen after inuny popular ex
periments had been made, ofllcially and
unofllclally, on sea and land.
Inception of the Flag.
The htory of the nctual making of
the first American flag as wo know
It Is not touched on by Mr. Guthrie.
Omitting all minor particulars, the
main points are these:
Washington, accompanied by two
gentlemen, called one day In 1770 at
tho little upholstery shop In Arch
street, Philadelphia, where Mrs. Uetsy
ltoss was carrying on business, and
asked her If she could make a flag.
She said that she had never made one,
but that she could try. They there
upon produced a design rather roughly
drawn. She examined' the design and,
noticing that tho stars were six-pointed,
suggested that they lie made with
Ave points, showing them how a live
pointed star could bo made with a
single clip of the scissors.
Design Approved by Congress.
General Washington then and there
.changed tho sketch, and soon after a
' colored design by a painter named Wil
liam Barrett was sent to Mrs. Ross as
Betsy Ross' Grave Needs Care
Few Americans would .think that this was the grave of one of the nation's most famous women-r-a great historic
character. It is the resting place of Betsy Ross, who made the first "Star-Spangled Banner," used In the Continental
army. No appropriation ever has been made for the cars of the grave. The patriotic order, Sons of America, hat
taken the matter up.
a sample, whereupon she set to work
and completed a ling which was ap
proved. This was the flag that was
flnnlly adopted by congress, and on
June 14, 1777, congress entered on Its
Journal an oMefal Indorsement of the
Stars and Stripes In a resolution word
ed as follows:
"Resolved, That the flag of the
United States be 1!1 stripes, alternate
red and white, and that the union be
1H stars white In, a blue fluid, repre
senting a new constellation."
The resolution says nothing about
tho arrangement of the stars In the
Held.
The ensign of tM United States re
mained the same hV fixed by the reso
lution of June 14, 1777, until 171)5,
when Vermont and Kentucky had been
admitted to the Union, and on January
13, 1704, congress passed the following
act:
"That from and after the first day
of May, 171)5, the flag of the United
States be 15 stripes alternate red and
white; that the union be 15 stnrs
white in a blue Held."
In 1818, ut the suggestion of Sam
uel O. Held, the original 13 stripes
were restored and congress voted to
add n now star on the Fourth of July
succeeding tho admission of each new
state.
Significance of Symbols.
"When a white ling staff or pole Is
set up on n village green," says Mr.
Guthrie, "It will doubtless show at tho
top on a golden ball the American
eagle, also golden, flapping his wide
wing?, ns If Just alighting or about to
exult In heavenward flight. This eagle
is the very prime symbol of our de
fensive and aspiring Union. It Is the
bird or angel of our peace, our winged
Victory, our Phoenix, the point of con
tact and the vehicle of grace In our
Intercourse with heaven. Embroidered
on a blue field, star strewn, It is the
emblem of tho executive head of the
nation."
In his right talon our eagle clutches
the olive branch, with 13 green leaves
and 13 berries, the leaves thnt are the
show of llfo and tho berries that are
tho fralt that symbol Itself carrying
us back to the olive twig borne by the
dove of Noah. This olive branch pro
claims our constant purpose a posi
tive creative peace.
Now, In the left talon of our her
aldic englo are clutched the 13 arrows
which signify the threatening thunder
bolts. As. Mr. Guthrie explains It,

the 13 lightning holts are ready to be
shot out of the heaven and to estab
lish with whatever violence may be
needed against the tiger and ape, stam
peding herds or howling wolf packs,
the peace of perfect athletic humanity.
"Flag and eagle they are ours; they
aro historically one," says Mr. Guthrie.
"Our flag flies to the winds, as we
lift our eyes to It reverently we can
and do swear fealty to It with what
ever abides vitally Innocent In us,
white hot for the strife unto a better
world."
fRAJDES-
Lord God of land and sea,
An ancient faith renew,
That still our stand may bo
The trust our fathers knew;
We of the Legion pray, Lord God,
To follow in the way they trod.
What Freedom gave they shared
Tho shores that made them free
With true men brave who dared
The seas for Liberty;
We of the Legion, Lord, would share
Our heritage with them who dare.
In duty done, they wrought
That peace might still abide;
In fear of 'none, they fought
With right upon their side;
We of the Legion plead for light,
So we be upright in Thy sight.
Not theirs with gyve and chain
To bind the vanquished foe;
Not theirs to 6trlve for gain
From out a people's woe:
Wo of the Legion under Thee
Would champion Democracy.
One Flag alone they flew,
Nor vain to them Its call,
Thnt we might own It true,
The bravest flag of all;
We of the Legion swear to hold
The Flag unsullied, fold and fold.

Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. Tho mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that ono reason why
so many applicants for insurnncc are re
jected is becauso kidney ttoublo is so
common to the American people, and the
largo majority of those whoso applica
tions aro declined do not even suspect
that they have the ('"sease.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on nale
tit all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium nnd large. However, if you wish
Grot to test this great preparation send
ten cents to Dr. Kilmer &, Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

Special Care of Baby.
That Baby should have n bed of Its own nil aro agreed. Yet It
Is more reasonable for an infant to sleep with grown-ups then to uso
a man's mcdlciuo in an attempt to regulate tho delicate organism of
that somo infant. Either practice is to be shunned. Neither would
be tolerated by specialists in children's diseases.
Your Physician will tell you that Baby's mcdlclno must bo
prepared with even greater care than Baby's food.
A Baby's stomach when in good health is too often disarranged
by improper food. Could you for a moment, then, think of giving
to your ailing child anything but a medicine especially prepared
for Infants and Children ? Don't be deceived.
Make a mental note of this: It is important, Mothers, that
you should remember that to function well, tho digestive organs of
your Baby must receive special care. No Baby is so abnormal that
tho desired results may be had from the use of medicines primarily,
prepared for grown-ups.
