10 THE OMAHA BEE FLAG MADE OF A DRESS OF FRENCH GIRL, ATJLUFFS Col. Tihley Sends Home En sign of Girl as Tribute to Men Who Freed Her County. A beautiful little American flag, made by a Belgian school girl and presented to the Rainbow division when it crossed the Belgian border on its way to the Rhine, will become the property of the Iowa Historical society after it has received its rharc of veneration and praise by Council Bluffs people. The flag was sent to Mrs. M. A. Tinley from her husband. Col. Matt Tinley, with the interesting bit of history that goes with it. The One Hundred Sixty-eighth Iowa was leading the Rainbow di vision in chasing back the Huns, and was the first to reach the village of Rascecourt, on the Belgian border. They were hailed by the people whom they had helped liberate. Lit tle children strewed flowers in their path, and the column of khaki boys stopped long enough to receive an ovation. The Little Flag. The mayor of the town made a real "speech of welcome" and at its conclusion, while people were shouting and bands playing, a little 9-year-old French school girl work ed her way forward and presented the flag. She had made it herself, pieced it from scores of fragments of red, white and blue, portions of which were undoubtedly parts of treasured dresses she had sacrificed. Worked into the blue field of the flag, is the maker's name, Georgett Titz, and the date November 22, 1918. The flag is one of the most beau tiful tributes that has been paid to American manhood and valor, and at the suggestion of Robert B. Wal lace it is to be given to the Iowa Historical society to become a treasured part of its .historic relics. For the next few lays it will be displayed in the front windows of the office of Mr. Wallace, on Pearl street. Duchess of Marlborough Elected to County Council London, March 7.
