There have been many mistakes
made about the etiquette Of the flag
When President William Mckinley
was assassinated thousands of loyal
Americans raised flags at half mast
over their places of business and let
them fly by night and by day until
they wore out They undoubtedly
thought they were showing respect to
McKinley's memory. But they were
not showing proper respect to the flag.
The United States government display
ed at that time its flags at half mast
from sunrise to sunset from the presi-
dents death until his burial. The gov
eminent regulations provide that on
the death of a president in office lts
flag shall be displayed at half mast
only one day.
In memory of the 10000 Union sol
diers who lost their lives during the
civil war May 80. Memorial day. each
