Its history can be traced back to the 12th cea- tury, or nearly 600 years prior to the first “Flag Day”, June 14, 1777. During the first crusade in 1195, Pope Urban Il assigned to all of the | Christlan nations as standards cross- | es varying in color and design, em- blematic of the warfare in which they | were engaged. To the Scotch troops | was assigned the white saltire, known | as the white cross of St. Andrew, on | a blue fleld. The British used a vel- | low cross, but a century and a quarter | later they adopted a red cross on a | white fleld, known as the réd cross of | St. George. The new flag was known as “King's cended the throne of England as | James I, he combined the two flazs, | and issued a proclamation requiring all ships to carry the new flag at their main masts.” At the same time p the vessels of sourth Britain were at their foremasts the red cross of St George and the ships of north | Britain to carry the white cross of St. Andrew. The new flag was known as “King | Colors,” the “Union Colors,” or the “Great Union”, and later as the “Un- | fon Jack”, and was the one under which the Britsh made all their perm- | anent settlements in America. It was | the flag of Great Britain only by pro- | clamation, however; not until 1707 did | Parliament pass an act definitely uniting_the two countries and their flags. In the same year the Govern- | ment issued regulations requiring the Navy to use what was known as the white ensign; the Naval Reserve, the | biue ensign; and the Merchant Ma- | rine, the red ensign. Owing to the fact that the British merchant vessels were eoverywhere, the colonists in America came ‘to look upon this red ensign as the flag of Great Britain. The people in the New England col- onies were bitterly opposed to thé cross in the flag. In 1635 some of the troops in Massachusetts declined to march under this flag and the mid- tary commissioners were forced to design other flags for their troops with the cross left out. The desizn (In 1652 a mint ‘was established :n Boston.

The pine tree design was also used on New England flags, cer- tainly by 1704 and possibly as early as 1635. At the outbreak of the Revolution mon to all of them. In many cases was used with the pine trees sub- !

This flag had been used by South Carolina as early as 1764. Benjamin Franklin defended the rattlesnake device on the ground that the rattlesnake is found only in America and that serpent em- blems were considered by ancients to_be symbols of wisdom. In September 1775 there was dis- played in the South what is by many believed to be the first distinctively American flag. It was blue with g gwhite ereseent, and matched the dress ©f the troops, who were caps inscribed “Liberty or Death.” The colonists desired to adopt a common flag: but they had not yet deciared independence and were nat at first seeking independence. They took the British flag as they knew I, and made a new colonial flag by di- viding the red fleld with white stripes ato 13 alternate red amd white staipes. | onstrated the ease with which a flv | with a | derived from the coat because it was first unfurled Washington's headquarters at Cam- bridge, Mass., on January 1, 1776. It complied with the law of 1707 by hav- ing the Union Jack on it;; it also rep- resented the 13 colonies by the 13 stripes. As the colonists gradually became converted to the idea that independ- over | ence from the mother country wis | necessary, they began to modify the flag, first by leaving off the Univa Jack and using only, the 13 horizontal stripes. The modified flags were no. always red and white, but regularly consisted of combinations of two colors selected from red, white, blue, and yellow. The flnal modification was the replacement of the Union Jack by the white stars on a blue field. The stars are the only distinctive feature of the American flag. The charming story which credits Betsy Ross with making the first flag of stars and stripes is still accepted by storians. When Washington sug- gested the six-pointed star, she dem pointed star could be made by folding a piece of paper and producing one single clip of the scissors. Some writers are of the opinion that | both stars and stripes in the flag were of arms of the Washington family, but this theory is not generally held. The officlal adoption of our flag was in 17 On June 14 of tha year the Continental Congress passed an act providing that “the flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white on a blue fleld, representing a new con- stellation.” The 13 stars were ar- ranged in' a circle to symbolize the perpetuity of the union of the States. Vermont was admitted to the Union in 1791 and Kentucky in 1792. It was felt that these two new States ought to be recognized on the flag, so in 1794 Congress passed an act making the flag 15 stars and 15 stripes. This remained the flag of the Uri- ted States throughout the War of 1812, until there were 20 Statgs in the Un- fon. In 1816, an effort was made to modify the flag so that the new States would be represented on it. To be continually adding strives would make the flag very awkward in shape and appeurance, so after argu- ing the matter for two vears, Con- gress decided to return to the original 13 stripes and one star for each staie. Congress has never determined the ar- rangement of the stars nor the shape and proportions of the flag, and there has been great variation. especially in the grouping of the stars. There are still many who believe that the symbolic circular grouping af stars should be restored.
