ner if the stripes are perpendicular.
Bunting for decorations should be
placed with the red at the top, white
below and blue at the bottom.
A flag used as street banner should
be hung across the street at an equal
distance between curbs.
United States laws forbid the use of
the flag in registered trade marks OF
for advertising purposes.
In no case should the flag be allowed
to touch the ground.
A flag reversed, with the blue field
down, is sign Of distress.
To display the flag at half mast, in
case of national mourning. or Other
calamity, the proper way is to raise il

it is lowered, it is proper to raise the
flag first to the top.
On the death of president, the fiae
should be displayed only one day at hal
mast, according to regulation.
