fraction Of the American people, even
among the habitues of Washington, have
ever seen "the presidents flag" This
ensign we find described as follows:
"Tne presidents flag is about half the
size of the regulation ensign. The body
of the flag is blue. In the center is an
an eagle, exactly like that o a half dol
lar. The eagle is embroidered in white.
The arrows and olive branch are worked
IN similar material, and the stars are
arranged above the bird. The shield on
the breast of the eagle is worked IN red
thus giving the national colors-red
white and blue-and forming a beautiful
flag" It has heretofore never been useC
except when the president has gone or
board a naval vessel. Now it is proposed
by the navy department that it be dis
played over the White House wheneve
the president is in his official residence
and hauled down again when he goeI
away, %leavening the big United State
flag still flying there. The law require
this to be done, as over every publl
