Appeal for Observance of Flat; Day
Friday, June 14, 1912, will be the
1.15th anniversary o f the adoption o f
our country’s flag in its form o f today,
rith the exception o f the number and
arrangement o f its stars.
Before the present flag was adopted
there were such a variety o f flags that
it caused cinbaraasment both on land
and sea, so In May, 177«, George Wash
ington, George Rosa and Hon. Robert
Morris called on Mrs. Betsy Roaa, a
widow who lived in Arch Street, Phila
delphia, where Mr. Washington un
folded before her a rough sketch o f a
flag which he had brought with him.
Mrs. Rosa auggeated a few modlflca-
lions and Washington remodelled it to
show a flag with thirteen stripes and a
blue Hold doited with thirteen stars,
it was the suggestion o f Mrs. Rosa
that the stars have five points. When
the flag was finished. Congress ap
proved it and Mrs. Roes waa ordered to
use all the bunting in Philadelphia to
make flags for the use o f Congress.
Soon thereafter Betsy Ross was
busy with an order from the treasury
to make flags for the fleet. The house
in which Mrs. Ross lived stands today
unchanged except for a window in
front.
On land or sea our flag thrills the
heart o f every true American citizen
with pride. It recalls York town. New
Orleans and Gettysburg. Washington
carried it mabj years with his brave
continentals.
Let every citizen o f Cottage Grove
shnw his or her patriotism by
honoring and upholding the flag by
displaying it on alf proper occasions
and especially by observing the anni
versary day, June 14th, by displaying
it from all the schools In the country,
ns well as in the town and at the homes
and the business places. I.et it !*• said
patriotism is not aalceffi for we ar*-
just as patriotic here as at other
places,
