In Latin America and some countries of Africa, a special presidential sash indicates a president's authority. In France and Italy, sashes – featuring the national flag tricolours and worn on the right shoulder – are used by public authorities and local officials (such as legislators) during public ceremonial events.
TWISTED CHORD – “Indicates that UNITY IS STRENGTH and teaches us not to be selfish but united and working together to withstand the destroyer drink.” In Canada, hand-woven sashes (known as ceintures fléchées or sometimes "L'Assomption sashes" after a Quebec town named L'Assomption in which they were mass-produced) were derived from Iroquois carrying belts sometime during the 18th century. As a powerful multi-use tool, this sash found use in the fur trade, which brought it into the North West by means of French voyageurs. During this period, the weave got tighter and size expanded, with some examples more than four metres in length. Coloured thread was widely used. The sash is a shared cultural emblem between French-Canadians and Métis peoples. Today, it is considered to be primarily a symbol of the 1837 Lower Canada Rebellion Patriotes and the Métis Nation. In modern times, Bonhomme Carnaval, the snowman mascot of the Quebec Winter Carnival, wears a ceinture fléchée as part of his attire in recognition of the province's heritage. Japanese officers continued the practice in full dress uniform until 1940. [13] Presidential sash [ edit ] WHEATSHEAF – “Signifies GOODNESS AND PLENTY. Grain when made into bread gives health and strength, but when grain is made into beer, the goodness is destroyed and poison called alcohol created.” A presidential sash is a cloth sash worn by presidents of many nations in the world. Such sashes are worn by presidents in Africa, Asia, Europe and, most notably, in Latin America.Many modern schools of Chinese martial arts use sashes of various colors to denote rank, as a reflection of the Japanese ranking system using belts. The Japanese equivalent of a sash, obi, serves to hold a kimono or yukata together. THE SERPENT – “Is the emblem of evil and denotes cunning and deceit. Just as the serpent can penetrate through where no other animal may pass, so drink creeps into every aspect of living and by the cunning and deceitful advertising the brewers get in everywhere to tempt people to drink. Solomon said “Drink biteth like a Serpent and stingeth like an Adder; and whosever is deceived by it is a fool.”” Since then sashes have been part of formal military attire (compare the sword-belt known as a baldric, and the cummerbund). Thus several other modern armies retain waist-sashes for wear by officers in ceremonial uniforms. These include the armies of Norway (crimson sashes), Sweden (yellow and blue), Greece (light blue and white), the Netherlands (orange), Portugal (crimson) and Spain (red and gold for generals, light blue for general staff and crimson for infantry officers).

THE LAMB – “Stands for MEAKNESS, INNOCENCE AND MODESTY and teaches us that we must be prepared to make sacrifices if needs be to preserve these qualities in our characters, and to make sacrifices for others.” THE EYE – “Indicates WATCHFULNESS and teaches us to be ever alert to avoid evil and temptation. Strong drink injures vision and harms thought. It also reminds us that the all-seeing eye of God, therefore we must be true to our pledge and do nothing we should be ashamed of Him seeing.” PEACE AND PLENTY – “ THE REWARD OF TEMPERANCE and teaches us that men would live at peace better if selfishness and greed were no more. If drink was banished there would be plenty of happiness for all.”
