Wave the Flag on the Fourth
The stars and stripes will be floating Saturday on
our many battlefronts around the world, and we, on
this natal day, should wave an answer to the boys
across the waves and the cause they are fighting for.
Every home, place of business, cars going to and fro,
and public places should display the emblem which
has risen to its greatest glory in our history.
Though we have had Pearl Harbor, Bataan and
Corregidor, the Valley Forges of this war, American
courage and determination to win a war has never
been so strong. We are ail out to give our lives and
all we have, if necessary, to keep our flag and all it
stands for afloat on land, on sea and in the air.
It is a symbol of heroism, of patriotism, of justice,
of freedom for the individual, of our Americanism
and the American way of life, and of our power to
defend and protect the principles that govern us.
Do not leave your flags in the closet on July 4th.
Get them out and wave the old emblem of our faith.
We are not celebrating with fireworks but are burn
ing powder in other ways. We are not listening to
eloquent speeches or witnessing parades, but we are
buying bonds and gathering rubber instead. The
boys are going to the front one by one and it is well
that they know that their flag is waving at home
when they muster in under the banner of war.
Courage and patriotism gain strength by expres-
sion, and Old Glory on every breeze will help stir
our sentiments into the greater action that will win
the war again for our democratic institutions.
