FLAG ETIQUETTE
Negotiations Which Have Dsvolved II
Use Of National Banner

Certain customs in regard to the
display of the national emblem on
public buildings and by private citi-
zens having crystallized into regula-
tons, it is worth while for everybody
to obtain set of the regulations for
his own guidance A great deal OF
confusion and carelessness is appar-
emit in the display Of flags. The most
common infraction Of these rules is
the leaving of the flag flying over
night, says the Cleveland Plain Deal
err. The flag should be raised at sun
rise and lowered at sunet. This rule
is sure to be observed in all families
of which a Boy Scout is a member !;
others are not likely to be so particu-
lar, or are very likely to be ignorant
Of the regulation.
An easily answered question about
the lowering Of the flag at sunset has
been asked in reference to the ma
tional anthem. The song informs as
that the rockets rcd glare and bombs
bursting in air gave proof through the
night that the nag WIS still there.
Those who find difficulty here must
remember that the nag is never low
cred, day or night, while a fort IL un-
der bombardment And the army act
ually engaged in belligcrent mansuv-
res raises the flag at dawn and lowers
It at sunset, unless the troops are I'M
der fire. In that case. a lowering OF
the flag might be taken to indicate
surrender.
Another discussion viii arise as to
the propriety Of hurrying to take the
flag in when it rains. In a private
house, Of course, this is a mere ques-
ton of economy, and the householder,
being under no compulsion to exhibit
his colors during daylight hours, will
be governed accordingly. Neverthe-
less, mere fair weather patriotism is
not entirely commendsble, and 1t
would be well to remember that red,
white and blue in standard flags are
colors that do not run.

MURRAY,

Tom Foreman, one of the most pop

opposite Lila Lee in her latest Para
mmount picture, The Heart of Youth
which will be on view at the Murray
theatre today. Mr.. Foreman will be
especially remembered by screen low
ers tor his fine work in Cecil B. De
Miles production, For Better, For
Worse" in which he played the role
of the soldier. He has recently been
appearing with Robert Warwick in
the Paramount-Artcraft picture. Told
in the Hills Though extremely youth
full, Mr.. Foreman has had several
years of motion picture experience,
and impersonates Miss Lees city
sweetheart with considerable finesse.
The story IS about family feud over
the possession of a spring. A delight
full romance runs through the plot
which is full of comedy turns and a
startling twist at the end.
