I THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. TiiujiaiMV, jiwn h. ONLY THREE DAYS ARE LEFT Next week when you have decided to buy oue of PHILLIPS & CREW CO.’S Pianos at the Special Prices it will be too late—other wiser people will have captured all of them. One customer who looked last week at a piano costing $275.00 was surprised yesterday to find the same instrument marked down to $225.00, and she promptly bought it. Next week the same piano will be $275.00—the usual lowest price. Two splendid bargains were added today — A FISHER PIANO IN OAK, fine upright piano for which we regularly get $375.00. Marked special this week $200.00. A STERLING COLONIAL Up right fiano in beautiful Mahogany—regular price $400, marked this week $250.00. The wonder is that at such prices wc have any of them left, but the terrible storm of wind and rain kept many ladies from coming to buy. Out-of-town people are sending in money with their orders— trusting to get the piano of their selection or an other just as good. We will sell every one of these Pianos this week, for the prices talk. Only Three Days Remain. Come at Once.

BIRTHPLACE OF OLD GLORY GIVES HONOR TO THE FLAG. By Private Leased Wire. Philadelphia, Pa., June 14.—Proba bly In no other city of the country Flag day so generally observed as In Philadelphia, and quite naturally, for It *** In this city that the flag was given birth. Congress, assembled at Inde pendence hall 121 years ago, resolvsd: „ That the flog of the thirteen United Stales be thlrtsen stripes, alternate red . *nd white; that the Union he thirteen •tars, white In a blue Held, represent ing the new constellation.” At the beginning of the revolutionary *ar. ,md with the formal repudiation ill thi nag of St. George and the t niar Jack of England, there was no American flag under which the Im pending battles were to be fought. There were conglomerate colonial flags *nd here and there a private banner M same great landed proprietor, but no hrogniaed American flag. ../here was no llttla worriment over Ibis fact, and the Continental or Con federate congress set about agreeing »P-n the form, character and general Purport of one. Congress accordingly Appointed Benjamin Franklin, Thomas ‘Anrh and Benjamin Harrison as a committee to agree upon and formally "Pprt a flag design. Near the close of the year 1775 they reported In favor of adopting the Brit. Ish Union Jack, plus thirteen stripes, as the flag. This report was never act ed on, or, at least, was not adoptsd. Washington wanted a five-pointed star added; others were Inclined to adopt a modified form of the Dutch flag, with Its broad red stripes. Finally, on June 14, 1777, congress agreed upon a flag of thirteen stripes with thlrtsen stars on a blue field, thus appropriating a little here and a little there until the star and the strips and the colors, red,whits and blue, apspared upon the banner, and thee "Stars and Stripes" became the Insignia of the re public. Of course, every one recalls the work of Betsy Ross, who no doubt suggested much as well as did the sew. Ing of the first flag. At the Betsy Ross house, 231 Arch street, the national anthsm was sung today by school cbldren and addrtsses appropriate to the day made by rep resentatives of various patriotic socie ties. The house has been tnrned over to the Federal government by the American Flag House and Betsy Ross Memorial Association, and will be maintained as a public memorial and museum of colonial and revolutionary relics.
