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.

animal painter. She say's Sir Edwin

told the children many stories of an

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

hall and came back with the painter's

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
