Marines are shown raising the Stars and Stripes at a ironical outpost in the West Indies and dis- livering Congress. It was the Stars and Stripes, which we so often call O:d Glory, that was destined to be ac- corded that honor on June 14, 1777, when the Continental Congress re- solved '~rhat the fl~g of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, al- ternate red and white; that the un- ion be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constella- tion." Research has failed to prove de- finitely just what person or persons created the design .for our National Flag. Tradition points to Betsy Ross as the needlewoman whose fingers wrought with ~loving care the first sample of the Stars and Stripes, which was almost identical with the flag as we know it today. Many believe that Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, or some other person was responsible for the design. Congress failed to designate the manner in which the stars should be placed, and it is still a subjeCt of conjectm'e whether they first appeared in rows, were staggered, or formed a circle. From time to time slight changes in the flag have been authorized by Congress. A flag of fifteen stars and fifteen stripes followed the en- trance of Vermont and Kentucky into the Union, and remained in vogue from 1795.to 1818. This flag inspired the United States in its ~var against the Barbary pirates early in the last century; it was flown to the breeze in the Battle of Lake Erie in 1813; prompted Francis Scott Key to write the im- mortal Star Spangled Banner in 1814, and was flown by Jackson at New Orleans in 1515. For twenty-three years the flag with fifteen stars and stripes flgur- -ed in numerous stirring episodes. regimental colors while on parade in China. never formally acknowledged by Then with the admission of five new states, Congress decided to re-I turn to the original thirteen stripI design and to add one star for eachj State admitted to the Union. When it is realized that twenty-eight states have been added since De- cember, 1818, the wisdom of this decision can be appreciated. Flags of the Dakotas Two more stars were added to the flag after North and South Dakota entered the Union in November, 1889. Later, when each State adopt- ed a flag of its own, their patterns suggested either the beginning of our nation or were typical of the States they represented. A part of Norway Soloist playing the National Flag and their OLD GLORY goes roaching on. Milestone after milestone has been passed and June 14 will mark the 157th anniversary of the beloved symbol of the nation. Many patrio- tic Americans will be proiad to dis- play their flag on this date in ob- servance O~ Flag Day. Floating from the lofty pimx~clc of American idealism, our flag is a beacon of enduring hope, like the famous Bartholdi Statue of Liberty enlightening the world to the op- pressed' of all lands. It is the rever- ed banner of an assemblage of free people from every racial stock on earth. George Washington said: "We !take the stars from heaven, the red from our mother country, separat- ing it by white stripes, thus showinl that we have separated from her and the white stripes shall go dowx to posterity representing liberty." Old Glory's Ancestors Long before Old Glory became the symbol of our great nation, there were scores of flags representing the hopes and aspirations of our fore- fathers. Colonial flags show an- chors, beavers, rattlesnakes, pine trees and various other insignia, Some of them bore the words, "Hope," "Liberty," or "An Appeal to Heaven." A favorite motto beneath the rattlesnake design was "Don~ tread on me.' Old Olory's immediate ancestor was the Grand Union Flag, some- times, called the (~ambridge Flag, the Congress Colors, and known by oth- er designations. It was similar to the flag as we know it today, except that the union was ~omposed of the crosses of St. George and St. An- drew instead of the starry field. Although many honors were ac- corded the Grand Union Flag, it was exercises at Sentinel Butte Friday evening. Miss Velma Babcock was one of the graduates. Mr. and Mrs. Ed.

Above this sun shall be arranged in an arc, in gold letters, the words, "South Dakota," and below the sun in the a~c axe the words in gold letters, "The Sun- shine State." On the reverse side of the blazing sun shall be p~inted the great seal of the State.
