Children of the Republic.
The Children of the Republic is
society or club formed by the D. a K.
and is intended to teach foreign boys
and foreign girls and all children or
the republic a love for state and
respect for the flag, and to encourage
higher standards of civic honor.
This is the idea the D. A r. wants
to inculcate in the children of the re-
public the invincibleness Of the flag
and their duty to it and to their coun-
try; their obligations Of being Amert-
can citizens.
In the clubs children are taught the
Salute to the Flag" and the pledge
which reads as follows: Il pledge
allegiance to my flag and to the re-
public for which it stands 1 pledge
my head, my hand, H. heart to God
and my country. one country, one Ian
guage, one flag"
In El PasO about so percent of the
people are foreign and it is the idea to
try to gather as many of the children
of these people into one of these
clubs, under the folds of the stars
and stripes
These clubs hold regular programs,
celebrate the national holidays and
help the G.. A r. to decorate the SOL
diers' graves on Decoration day. Many
clubs include the May flag drill, and
often learn patriotic plays to be given
in their club room.
Some Of their programs have been
as follows:
/. America
.. The development and meaning of
our flag. CThey compete in seeing who
draws the best picture of the flag.
8. Washington, our first president.
Famous Indian treaties.
The value of a vote
Bribing in elections.
Declaration of independence.
United States history.
Historical papers.
