SALUTING THE FLAG ;8 NEW ;Llf! rr OUR FLAG You have a birthday every year. So has theflag. The birthday of the flag comes on June 14th. To show how happy and proud we are tohave a flag that tells us to be brave, and pure,and true, we put it out and look at the beauti-ful colors. We try to be just what it tells us to be. When we salute the flag it means that wegive our hands, our heads, and our hearts toAmerica. America is our own country. It is the country that we love. We call our flag the flag of the free. When we sing the Star-Spangled Bannerwe say: Oh, long may it wave,Oer the land of the free and the home of the brave. We must never let the flag fall to the ground. We must love and obey what it tells us to doas we love and obey our fathers and mothers. When the flag goes by we must rememberwhat a poet who loves it says: Hats off!The flag is passing by! 243 STORIES FOR LITTLE CHILDRENA HALLOWEEN STORY By Elizabeth Thompson Dillingham ONCE upon a time a big orange pumpkin wasgrowin
