Flag Code Contest
Set by Auxiliary
By LUCY E. RODGERS
Americanism is understanding
America's past and taking an active
interest in America's future. The
true American citizen believes in
liberty, equality, justice and human
ity. He believes that liberty does not
mean to do what you like but that
liberty carries with it a sense of
duty. The true American is broad
minded and humane. He respects
women and the home and believes
in freedom of religion, free speech,
free press as a foundation of the
land. The true American has self
respect. He supports his family and
conducts himself as a freeman should.
He strives to own a home. He is
alert and enterprising. No work is
too hard for him during working
hours, no play too good for him
when he is free. The true American
is patriotic. He respects and honors
his Flag.
Each year the American Legion
Auxiliary sponsors an Americanism
program. In Heppner it has been the
custom for thirteen years to carry
on an Americanism project in the
eighth grade. The girls are asked to
write an essay upon some phase of
Americanism and the boys to make
a detailed study of the Flag Code.
Both boys and girls are rated by
their teachers on the qualities of
scholarship, honor, service, courage,
and leadership. Each of these qual
ities count 16 2-3 points on a score
of 100. The essay counts 16 2-3 points
for the girls and the written an
swers to question on the Flag Code
count 16 2-3 points for the boys.
The title for the essays this year is
"What It Means to Me to Live in
America."
I know a land so fair and broad
Where men are free to think and
toil;
Where honest zeal wins just reward,
And all may own and till the soil.
No other land so broad and free,
The land I love, America.
Oh, in that land my home shall be
Where'er my birthplace may have
been;
To 1-h.ee I pledge my fealty,
None else shall my allegiance win.
Oh, I would give my life for thee,
Dear land I love, America.
Mary K. Buck.
BOY SCOUT NEWS
By ROBERT GROKETT
The Boy Scouts have been meet
ing at the lunch room at the school,
Now they are meeting at the fair
pavilion. No advancements were
made last Tuesday. They had open
ing ceremony, then played some
games, and closed the meeting.
Saturday at noon the Scouts went
on a hike to Glutton falls. Don Bal
lard, a CCC boy, took some pictures
of the falls and of the boys. Then
they came back to the cars (after
about a five-mile walk) and ate the
lunch they had, which wasn't very
much. They then came home.
Later in the summer they have
planned a Scout camp at Wallowa
lake and are hoping all the boys
can go.
All boys, whether Scouts or not,
are urged to come to the next Scout
meeting at the fair pavilion at 7:00
p. m. Tuesday.
