But it also sat elsewhere, someflnies in houses that were erccted for private use. -1t was in January, 1729, that the assembly, awake finally to the need of a suftable provincial capitol, voted £2.000 (310 000 y, toward its cost and appropriated the same out of an issue of paper money which it had just authorized William Allen, who was afterward one of Philadelphia’s most famous mayors and became a justice of the supremeé court, acted as the agent of the province in' the purchase of the lots of ground on Chest‘nut street, from Fifth to Sixth, and = extending half-way back toward Walnut street, which formed the chosen site.

They asked and obtained the privi lege of aaln reeastibg the bell The resull of this second attempt of {ls kind in America was the historfe tocsin which 22 vears later was It erally to ‘prociaim liberty throuxhout the land” Another Bell was also ordered from England hy the assembly, but it did not take the place of the Ameriean bell until the latter was cracked again in 1835, while being tolled on the occaslon of the death of Chief Justice Marshall : ' In 1767 came the agitation over the tax on tea and ofher Imported commodities. John Dickinson's letters of a "Farmer” rubbed this and other object lessons, stupldly given by the British min{stry, deep into men's minds. The act was repealed in 1777, except In so far as’ it related to tea, _ _ - ” ' When news of the Lexington-Concord fight in April, 1775, arrived, the bell in the state house steeple agaln called 3,000 people together, and they unanfmously agreed to defend with their arms, their lives, liberty and property. The climax of the first period of the struggle was fast approaching. The =second continental congress met in the state house on May 10, 1775, the Provinclal assembly having yielded to it the chamber that was ever after to be sanctified by its labors. In June, 1776, began the debating of the question of independence. The preliminary resolution proposed by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia, declaring that the colonies “are of right and ought to be free and independent states,” was adopted in. committee on the night of June 10, but It was not until June 28 that the draft of the ‘Declaration of Independence was submitted to congress. On July 1 congress adopted the resolution, and that day and the three following were devoted to discussion in committee of the whole of the Declaration itself. It was passed on the eveniugk Gf the Fourth. =~ = - ; Not until August 2 was the Declaration of In-

Ross lved. and ‘that she was employed by the continental congress to manufacture flags, the government archives bear witness. - Betsey Ross' flag was first rejected and some time later accepted. Betsey Ross attended Christ church, Philadelphia, and the pew in which she worshiped was next to the one occupled by Washington. and her pew is marked by a brass plate bearing these words: “In this pew worshiped Betsey Ross, who made the first flag.” . : i Of late years the journals, magazines, and school histories our country have called attention to the origin of our national flag as having been suggested by the family arms of the Washingtons. This supposition comes from Martin Tup?«. an eminent English poet and literateur. His first reference to our flag in this connection was made public in the fall of 1850. The announcement did not recelve serious consideration until at a public ‘banquet given in America. At this dinner, held in “the city of Baltimore, the idea was heralded to the ‘world that the stars and stripes had their origin ir the heraldic symbols of the Washington family.

Mesopotamia Can Support Thousands. Going to Palestine to become director of the American Bchool of Oriental Research in Jerusalem, Prof, Richard Gotheil of the Semitic chair in Columbia university recently sailed on La Savoie.
The school is affiliated with the Archaelogical Institute of America, supported by leading schools. Speaking of the Zionist movement and their plans for a colony in Mesopotamia, the professor said: _ “TI am thoroughly in favor of the movement in which I am greatly inter ested. Restore the water courses in Mesopotamia between the Euphrates and Tigris rivers and it will support a large population. It supported vast numbers centuries ago and can be made to do so again.”
