Flag of Nova Scotia Is
Traced to King Jamal
Nova Scotia has the distinction
of being the only province of the
Dominion of Canada, and the first
colony of Orest Britain, to pos-
sess a Sag of its own. The flag
of Nova Scotia Is a silver field with
a blue St Andrew’s Cross, a small
shield with the Royal Arms of Scot-
land (gold, a lion rampant red,
teeth, claws, and tongue blue, with-
in a double treasure flory-counter-
flory Seurs-de-lys red) being placed
as an inescutcheon upon the cross.
It traces its origin to the'Charter
of New ScoUand granted in 1831
to Sir WiUiam Alexander (after-
wards the Earl of SUrllng) by Ifjng
James VI of Scotland and I of
England. In this charter the

young to deal with figures, worked
out mathematical sums with peb-

Ampere had a sad life. When he
was eighteen, in 1793, his father,
a justice of the peace, who had

Revolution, was imprisoned and
soon afterwards executed. Only
his deep and, ardent Interests In
poetry, music snd botany saved
the young man from succumbing
to his subsequent depression. His
one great happiness was in his

theory of gambling, demonstrat-
