gued that there is no place I'm the

feres with this excellent plan. In order
that patriotism may be taught / sug-
gest the use of the salute to the United
States Flag in the daily exercises in
each school,
THE following directions are given
to aid the teacher:
Select one of the pupils to hold the
flag, or drape the flag on the wall
back of the teachers desk.
AT a signal from the teacher in
charge the pupils rise and, with hands
to side, face the Flag. When a second
signal is given, every pupil shall give
the bag the military salute, as follows
Right hand lifted, palm downward, to
a line with the forehead and close TO
it. Standing thus, everyone shall re-
peat together slowly, L pledge allegi-
ance to my Flag and the. Republic for
which it stands; one Nation indivis-
ible, with Liberty and Justice for all. -
At the words to my Flag the right
hand is extended gracefully, palm up
ward, toward the Flag, and remains In
this position to the end of the affirma-
ton, then all hands Immediately droI
to the side. Before being seated all

The teachers in the county every
day give instructions not only in pa
triotism, but in kindness to animals
and in matters of ethics. This has
been done not as required by law, but
as a matter of course.
