THE SCOTTISH FLAG

AGAIN

GLASGOW, June 18.

Ou Saturday afternoon the Prin cons Royal will be at the Scottish National War Memorial at the Castle, to lay a wreath in memory of the Royal Scots who died dur ing the Grent War, and will after wards visit the recently opened Naval and Military Museum.

I am sorry to find that some of my Scottish friends are falling out!

put it no more de initely-have circularised all the town councils asking them to fly tho Scottish flag ou Bannockburn Day, and the question is-Which flag

Some councils have chosen the white cross" of St. Andrew, the "silver cross to Scotland dear," but others prefer the "lion flag." But the heralds are up in arms at this proposal thus to usurp the pre- rogative of the King.

So far, the Lyon King of Arms has not taken action. He bas tro- mendous powers; and I believe that the warrant of Mary Queen of Scots prescribing death by be heading for anyone flying the Lion Flag without permission still holds good.

MAKING SICCAR

some

The request of the National Party of Scotiaad to Scottish Town Councils that they should fly the Scottish, fing on Bannockburn Day (June 24) has had some curious an- swers as it travelled up and down the country. From time to time of late there have been news items about these answers, which, if col. lected, would make quaint read ing.There have been several municipalities which did not own the appropriate flag, and had no intention of buying one! which would buy and some which would borrow; and at least one which answered sadly that it had neither flag to hoist nor public buildings to hoist it over. None can have shown a greater will to do the right thing than has Ren- Irew. It is reported, that when the matter was considered by the Council there was some debate as to what really was the Scottish flag, and that it was finally agreed to settle the question by _fying the Lion Rampant at the Town Hall and the St. Andrew's Cross in the publie park Thus to mak' siccar is well in accord with Scottish tradition.

TERCENTENARY

FUNCTIONS

On Sunday there will be a drum- head service in the King's Park at Holyrood-house, which the Prin esa Royal will also. attend:

DUKE OF YORK AND SCOTS GUARDS

Mr. Ian S. Galbraith, honorary secretary of the Glasgow Branch of the Scots Guards Association, has received intimation that His Royal. Highness the Duke of York, who succeeded "Lord Methuen as Colonel

of the Scots Guards, will attend the annual dinner of the Glasgow Branch of the Scots Guards Asso- ciation in Glasgow on Armistice Day, Saturday, November 11

OLD SCOTTISH BADGES

Scottish visitors to London will be interested in a recent bequest to the Royal United Service Museum in Whitehall. This con- siste of a fine collection of Scottish military cap badges, shoulder and waist belt plates, buckles, plaid brooches, and sporran tops. There are altogether 60 items in the col- lection, the majority being articles worn prior to 1881, and bear the old regimental numbers which fell into disuse when the united bat-

talion system was introduced in that year and Territorial momen- clature was adopted. Conspicuous amongst the exhibits are the fine engraved gilt sporran tops, plaid brooches with enormous Cairngorm centres, and a fine oral shoulder belt plate of the Argyllshire High- landers made of white metal with a thistle, carried out in beautiful green and purple enamel work.
