Hy whntevor name we 'de scrtbe it, it represents liberty and liberty means obedience to our lnws. The Klnjr contains thirteen stripes, aUfrnate red and white, represent intr the 1M original states; and a star for each state of the Union. The field of the Flan Is the stripes, and the Union is the lllue and the Stars. The colors of the Flaa; are red. repre senting lryalty, sincerity and justice, and its stars representing the Fed eral Union. The arrangement of the stars on the flag is regulated hy law and executive order. An executive order, issued October 21!, 11112, provided for 48 stars arranged in six horizontal rows of eight stars enclv Starting in the upper left-hand corner and reading each row from left to right gives the star cf each stale in the Union. The star representing Ore foil is tho first star in the fifth row, Oregon being tho :Wrd state to ratify the Constitution and become part of the United Stntes, the stars arranged in order of the state's rati fication of the Constitution and ad mission to. tho Union. The dimensions of the Fhig are fixed by an executive order issued May Hi, HUH. The length should he just 1.0 times its heighth. The Union, or part of the Flag on which the stars appear, should be seven stripes high and ts length .70 of the height of the flag. The stars are five-pointed, with -one point directly upward. When a new state is ad mitted the star is not added tc the flag until the Fourth of July next succeeding the date of admission. The constitution is the basis of all law, and the Flag is its symbol.
