MANY FORMS OF EARLY FUGS ' Various Types Were Used Before the Present Form of Old Glory was Adopted. According to the Smithsonian Insti tution there were many forms of early flags, especially colonial types, used by the Individual colonies aud mllltla regiments, before the flag of the Uni ted States was established by the con tinental congress June 14, 1777, the anniversary of which date Is now eel* I ebrated as flag day. This act required that the flag of the United States be of 13 horizontal stripes, alternate red and white, and that the union be 13 white stars on a blue field, represent ing a new constellation. One of the first Occasions for pub lic display of the Stars and Stripes Is said to have been Aughst 0, 1777, when the new flag was hoisted over the troops at Fort Schuyler, Rome, N. Y. John Paul Jones Is said to have been the first to fly the Stars and Stripes over the high soas on the Ranger in November, 1777. From the time of the Revolution the Stars and Stripes In the flag have va- ' rled. There were 13 stars during the Revolution, 15 In the war of 1812. 20 1b the Mexican war, 33 to 35 In the Civil war, 45 In the Spanish war and 4$ today. The stripes were changed first from 13 to 15 and then back again to 13. Our national flag is among the oldest flags of the nations, being older than the present British Jack, the French tricolor and the flag of Spain. The Painter's ? Do?. Mm. Ritchie, the daughter of Wil liam Makepeace Thackeray, the Eng lish novelist, WFlteK-of- v4**its-Avheft-?he r was a child to Sir Edwin Landseer, the animal painter. She say's Sir Edwin was delightful company and that li?> told the children many stories of an imals as he stood painting at his huge canvases. "I remember," she says, "his telling us an anecdote of One of his dogs. He was in the habit of Ufklng him out every day when his work was over. .The dog used to wait patiently all day long while Sir Edwin was painting, but he used to come and He down at>hls feet and look up In his face toward flye o'clock, and on one occasion finding that no notice was taken. of his hints he trotted into the hall and came back with the painter's hat, which he laid at Ills feet." - Friendship Reaches Far. Friendship Is an elastic word, rath er. It may be Stretched to almost any length and It can be contracted until it is unbelievably short and small, says Margaret E. Sangster, In Christian Herald. Like' any rubber band, friend- I ship can, of course, be stretched too far? stretched to the breaking point. But It'* very "hard to stretch the befct sort of friendship so far. Friendship may be the most elastic thing in the world. Some people do not realize the fact, bat It can. It i can be made to stretch past ambition, ! and around pride, and over personal - ; vanities. It can be made to lighten J the darkest pathway, to smooth out* j the roughest road. It can change al j most unchangeable Circumstances ? it can break almost unbreakable trou* ; bles. It can be, after all, one of the i most beautiful things in the world. j In the Spring.
