When Edward, Prince .of Wales— eager, bright
eyed, smiling and sincere -arrived in Canada in
August, and when he voiced his great ackniration of
the wonderful achievements of Canadians, orl the
fields of battle and at borne, once again. we -were
thrilled with joyous pride.,
He asked concerning Canada's reconstruction pro-
gramme, and when he was told of the Victory Loan
1919, he.graciously consented to the use of his Coat
Of Arms on a flag, which is to be the prize of honour
for districts achieving their quota in the loan.
In dedicating "The Prinee's Flag" at 'Ottawa on
Labor Day, His Royal Highness said in part:—
"It is a great joy to me to be associated with the
loan, which is the bridgebetween war and peace, and
which is finishing off the job."
"I hope every citi and district will win my flag."
Striking,.and beautiful in design, this flag will form
not only an unique memento of Victory Year, bat a
lasting and -outstandi-ng souvenir of the -visit of His
Royal Highneis a visit which will remain as one of
the most memorable events in Canada's history.
- The reproduction above shows the design of the
,flag. The body is white, the edge red; in the upper
Icft hand corner is the Union Jack, and in the lower
right hand corner the Prince of Wales' Coat of Arms.
The flag is made in two sizes, 4 feet 6 inches by
9 feet for small cities, towns and villages, and 7 feet
by 13 feet 6 inches for cities of over .10,000 population.
amada has been divided into canvassing districts'
by the Victory 1„oan Organization. Each city forms
one district. Other districts kave been determined
aqcor\ling to population.
Eachi of these canvassing districts has been allotted
a terta;n -amount in Victory Bonds to sell. To viin
the Pvince's Flag, therefore, a district has to•sell its
alAtctnic:t. That is the one and simple condition.
