INITIATED LAWS
Next week there will appear in this paper the various
initiated laws on which the people are to pass judgment at
primary. They should be scanned closely by
that an intelligent vote may be cast on them.
the sale of liquor seems inevitable in this state,
governing its sale is a much better one than
sale enactment, as it seems to shut out many
on under the beer law inasmuch as it
establishes the number of employes in that de-
of having a troop of state automobiles
over the country, place~ the supervisions of sales
y and city control. It also leaves the sale of
liquor as optional with the cities. The measure will be a
great help to the various school districts, although we would
much rather have school support come from some other
source, and more d6finitely assures that revenue than the
~ose-jointed, politically-controlled beer statute.

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

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

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

the State flag of North Dakota,
adopted in 1911. is the American
eagle and shield. The flag also
bears thirteen stars, typifying the
thirteen original States, and the
name "North Dakota."
South Dakota's official flag dates
from 1909. The law adopting it
says in part that the State flag shall
consist of a field of blue in the cen-
ter of which shall be a blazing sun
in gold, in diameter two-fifths the
width of the flag. 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.
Slowly the nation has expanded
westward and new States have been
added to the Union, each represent-
ed, by a glistening star in the blue
field. Symbolic of an honest pr|de
in the accomplishments of the past,
together with the courage and faith,
which have always ruled the des-
tiny of our great nation, Old Glory
goes marchl~E on!
