THE service flag which has hung
in the windows of many of the homes
i'll Norwich and the whole country,
has been the great emblem of demec
raey during the past two years. said
Rev. z. A. Iegg in his address at the
service flag meeting held in Trinity
Methodist Episcopal church on Sunday
evening. Hung about tn pulpit of the
church were twelve service flags with
their red borders and blue star upon
field of white signifying that one
member of fa0tly belonging to the
church was in the service. Five Of
the flags bore two stars, but as there
are forty names on the roll of honor
of the church they were not all repre-
scented by service fifiags,
The choir marched into the church
singing Onward Christian Soldiers and
was preceded by the large Amrican
flag. At the offertory Arthur R.
Blackledge sang When the Boys Come
Home. This was followed by a silent
prayer for the boys still in the service
and an anthem Sing of Light, Love
and Freedom.
At the roll call of the Trinity church
service flag as each boys name was
called some one answered 'here', eth
r mother, a father, brother, sister
or sweetheart. The names called
were as follows: Christopher Allen,
Lieut.. Horace Allen, junior grade;
Sergeant Allen Barbour, Guy F. Car
penter, Paul f. Carpenter, David

The service flag is the symbol of

home and in the humble dwelling and
everywhere we see it, it mans the same
thing: one thought and purpose, that
Of freedom and democracy. 1t is a
bond of kinship, a kinship such as the
world has never seen before. 1t is
the forces back of this littl service

things. People have sacrificed and
they have been made stronger by this
sacrifice.
Now, 1 would like to see another
kind of srvice flag one with a white
border with a field of red and upoil
this field a cross and I would like to
see this flag in every home signifyins
that every member of the family was
in the army of Jesus.
