Bessijo and Christina daughters of Lyle and Margaret La Pray of Portland, Oregon has spent a weeks vacation with their La-Pra- y, members of the Second Continental Congress reas- sembled in the State House following dinner. Earlier that afternoon they had signed the Declaration of Independence. During the meeting that followed, Congress appointed Benjamin Franklin, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson to a committee to bring in a design for a national seal. The need was considered urgent because inherited British custom and law demanded that the seal of sovereign authority be impressed on grants and charters to make than valid. Congress felt the need of a device to verify its actions. Although the choice was not unanimous, the American Bald Eagle was chosen. History has been generous in its judgement of the eagle and appears to be influenced more by the appearance and physical strength of the bird than with its natural habits which sometimes do not match the ideals of human behavior. Through the years, however, people have made it representative of power, courage, conquest, freedom, independence, magnanimity, truth, and immortality. The choice of the bald eagle as the American symbol appears to have been popular at the time. The Bird of Freedom was pictured on butter molds, blazoned on quilts, painted on chests, limned on gift plates, and used In many ways. Ben Franklin felt the bird was one of bad moral character, that he did not get his living honestly. He would have chosen instead the turkey gobbler, claiming that although it was a little "vain and silly it was a true native of American and a bird of courage. Many n people, including zoologists, like Francis Hobart Herrick, have disagreed with Franklin's appraisal of the eagle. Before the Christian era the eagle was the guardian divinity of one city in Mesopotamia. The eagle was sacred to Zeus, god of the elements; shown with its talons sunk in a serpent, it well-know- Max Clark. The Relief Society homemaking work day was held m ms represented triumph over evil. To ancient Rome, the eagle was a symbol of victory and was emblazoned on the standards the conquering legions carried. It became the special emblem of Ro- man emperors and, .after their death, the bearer of their souls to the stars. The eagle became a Christian symbol of ascension and the symbol of St. John. It was likewise adopted as the emblem of Charlemagne, Napoleon, and Peter the Great. It was the emblem of the German Empire and the German Republic until the days of the swastika. In the new World, the golden eagle was highly esteemed by all native North Americans. Daniel G. Brin-toan ethnologist, reported: "Its feathers composed the war flag of the Creeks, and its image, carved in wood, or its stuffed skin, surmounted their council lodges. None but an approvn, ed warrior dare wear it the Cherokees, and STUmiS honor only to him who first touched the corpse of the common foe." The eagle first appeared in American coinage on a Massachusetts copper cent in 1776. The first coinage of American gold followed in 1795 in the form of "eagles, or $10 pieces, and "half eagles". In the 1797 issue of these coins, the design was nearly the same as the national seal. Quarter eagles were coined in 1796; double eagles ($20), in 1849. The first silver dollar, struck in 1794, bore an eagle with extended wings, standing on a rock and encircled by a laurel wreath. The eagle represents some of the highest ideals of the American way of life, and with its history are stored the stories of America's progression and develop- ment. With the continuing history of the eagle also lies a great challenge to America to maintain habitat suitable to the preservation of the eagle and all other wildlife. . named LaDawn.
