Palmer, Bowmanville (Continued from last week) The Commonwealth in 1648 T:ie indifference of Kings and their underestimation of their sub- jects led ta the execution of Charles 1 and for the time being the addi- tional Jack of James 1 went into oh- scurity and the flag of the Common- wealth under Cromwell became the national emblem. A letter ta the Commissioners of the Navy by John Bradshlaw in the namne of ye Council of State read :--the ships that are in the service of the atate shall beare the Red Crosse only in a white fiag quite through the flag, with the escit- cheon an the Stern. The Restoration 1660 At the restoration of Charles II when the Commonwealth went down the addi tional Jack of James I was reintroduced without any proclama- tion. This fiag wAs being generally used by the ships at sea, and it be- came necessary for Charles II to is- sue a proclamation in 1663 forbid- ding the use of the Union Jack ex- cept by ships of thc King's Na"y. The Union of 1707 The grcatest ycar in the history of the British Fiag was 1707 in the rcign of Qucen Ann. The Scotch and English Parliaments had united,J and Qucen Ann diffcring from the' action of James I, cailed together re- presentatives of the Privy Councîlsl of Scotland and Engiand and asked1 that the heralds submit designs of the flags joined to be selected by the joint councils, the result of this being the introduction of the Orignal Jack. In this flag, as evidence that the Scotch objetion was unwarranted in 1606, a wide margin to the St. Georges Cross was given. Instructions1 given by the Right Hon. the Earl of Binden, Deputy Earl Marsha1Ii f Eng]and at that time reads: To give directions to the King of Arma and Ye Hcralds to consider of' the alterations to be made in the En- signs Armorial and canjaining the Crosses of St. George and St. Andrcw to b. used in ail Flags, Banner., Standards and Ensigns at Sea and Land, and tha.t thcy Iay before the committce drafts of the present flaga rof Englend and Scotland, and of sucih alterations as they propose for the fiags of the United Kingdom. These directions wcrc carried out and design& pre'pared by the Heralds and the Committee and were finally presentcd for ajudication and auth- ority of the Privy Council, thus was formed the- Union Jack the firat by official authority. James I in 1606 introduced the additional Jack "Jyoned according; ta the form made by our Heralda".j Queen Ann introduced the original and first official Union Jack "Joyned in sunobnmanner as we shouid think fit". The wider stripe given the St. George's Cross upon the Jack was designated as, for glorious service. St. Patrick,$ During a raid by the Irish ta the now coast of France, at Bologne they captured a boy of 12 yeara named Patricus. He ived wjth them for six years and finally escaped ister. He is isaid to have had a divine order ta return to Ireland and preach the gospel to the people, thus we have the entrance into Ireland of St. Pat- rick.

Ircland may flot have contributed as much ta the Emipire as Scotiand or England, but hier entry by Parliamen- tary vote in 1801 added to the Union Fiag the St. Patrick's Cross which completes the present Union Jack, that fiag of freedom, so f ull of mean- ing, the emblem of the greatest Emn- And it i. understood that the Can- adian Mercantile Marine Ensign i. the officiai National Flag of Canada, a f ew word. may be said concerning ensigns and their history. The Commonwealth first lew the St. Georges Cross or Jack and later introduced a red enaign with the St. George's Cross in the top left corner and an Irish harp in the fiy. At the restoration the ships re- moved the Irish Harp from the Fly of the ensign and with the red flag, with the St. George's cross in the lcft top corner sailed ta France and brought home the new King, Chales Il, and during his reign maintained the Red Ensign.

In 1890 the Canadian Government applicd ta the Imperial government for permission to use the Red Ensign with the Coat of Arms in the fly for merchantmen registered in the Dom- inion of Canada. This was authorizcd in 1892. On May 21, 1912, in response to many enquiries the Secretary of State for the Colonies (The Hon. L. Harcourt) in a despatch ta the Gov- ernor-General of Canada, requeated him ta state that: "The Union Flag is the National fiag of Canada as of ail other parts of Hia Mai esties Do- minions and may be flown on land by ail British subjects, and that the Red Ensign with the Armns of the Domin- ion of Canada in the Fiy, is intended to be used only by Canadian Mer- chant Vesseis". The National flag of Canada i. theref are the Union Jack. Enthusiastie fiag makers were mak- ing ail descriptions of fiags very far from officiai.

Next morning she was up three hours before time ta get the train and naturally wake me as well. When she was leaving she askcd me how much it would be and she handed me a $10.00 bill. We made the change, paid for her lodg- ing and accompanicd them ta the station. When lcaving she offered me money for what I had donc and I shook my head and told her my ser- vices were as free as the air. I said good-bye ta the littie girl and she taok my hand and kissed it. Whcn I went ta shake hands with the mother she took my hand in both of hers and kissed and kissed and wept her gratitude until she had ail the people at the station watching ber. Can you imagine how glad I was ta have been any assistance? Sometiines girls corne frorn the trains who are anxiaus for work. Lenà, came off the Owen Sound train and 1 did not nced any ane to tell me she needed heIp. She had writ- ten ta her boy friend ta. meet her but he had not received her letter. We got in touch with hima over the phone and while we were waîting for him to corne we had a pleasant chat and I learned that she would like ta get work in the city. Her appearance appealed ta me and I was particularly anxious that she should get intoaa home where the helpfulness woald be mutual, for she was wiiling t - houa. work and also go where there were chiidren. This was Saturday evening and 'by Tuesday noon she wa in a good home where the mother was a solo ist in anc of aur United Churches and had twa chiidren. On inquiry, I find they are liking her and she them. Marie was a French girl who came ta West Toronto from Detroit on the 10:20 night train hoping te fini la train for Sudbury, but there was nane gaing until the next morning at 9:40. I took her ta my raamîng house and endeavored ta make it as pleasant as possible. When she was dressing ta go to the train she .in- tinued ta cali me Mrs. After a while I said ta her "I have't the honor af being Mrs. lam just plain Miss", "O", she said "I didn't k-now there were any nice aid maids"!' Dorothy was an English girl. She and her mather and youngcr sister had sailed on S. S. Montcalm same six weeks befiore. Her mother had obtained work in a home at Stouff- ville and the younger daughter staycd with her. Dorothy gat work in St. Thomas but found the Canadian ways s0 different and the work -o hard that she decided to go to her mother. Her father had -ocen kiiled in the great War and up ta, thia time, ah. was now 18, ah. had rcceived a pension and had not known any of the joya and hardships of earning. Consequently ah. knew nothing of the value of money or the necessity of saving. When ah. came to us it was necesaary for her ta ro- main over night before the. Sto'uffville train went out. Accomamodation was found for ber in the home where 1 stay, and as she had only enough money to pay her railway fare I lent ber sufficient fer her night's lodging and breakfast.
