Nineteen minutes after four. even on
sthe sleepy-eyed householders Of Indian
apolis an hour when only the miikman
should be awake. but this morning
is one day in the year when the s. E. Fl.
/. should be ON hand to Good morning" to
}. the man who rattIes the milk bottles.
Sure" replied the bright Indianapolis
man when asked if he was awake
today with the first early birds seeking
the first early worms. IF hadn't got
up. couldn't have tatken the first train
for the Speedway"
Who said anything about the Speed
way?" responded his Questioner. MAY
80 may be Speedway day for several
. thousand of our native Inhabitants and
a few thousand visitors from Maine to
California, but for a lot more it was
Memorial day before the Speedway was
ever heard Of In other words. 4:19
means the time to get up to hoist the
flag to the morning breeze or hang 1t
from the highest point Of the porch"
There is an astonishing amount to be
learned regarding correct flag "eti-
quette," according to one of the Boy
Scouts at Scout headquarters who was
questioned regarding the proper way to
display the flags which hang from
the windows of downtown business
houses, fly from lofty poles and be dis
played at residences in Indianapolis.
Hardly any one seems to know just
which side the stars should be on when
the flag hangs from porch" said the
Scout. And a lot Of people don't know
the flag should not be draped like the
/ portieres in front Of the parlor folding
doors 1t may look more artistic to catch
it up in the middle and let 1t drop grace
fully on either side. but 1t shows lack
} of respect for the flag. So does using it
for an awning over the top of an automo-
bile, something often seen in parades of
supposed patriots
What about the way to hang 1t from
the porch" he was asked.
Well the best information we can get
in regard to that says that the stars
. should be to the right side Of the flag as
you face Il.
Il don't suppose there is any one who
does not know that on Memorial Day the
nag flies at half mast from sunrise until
noon and then Is raised to full mast and
remains at full mast until sunset. bu:
there's lot of people don't know In
raising the flag to half mast 1t should
be raised clear to the top of the pole
aud then lowered to half mast. Half
mast, by the way, doesn't mean half
way to the bottom Of the pole, but just
the distance of the width Of the flag
from the top of the pole.
And if you have ever seen the re
treat" or lowering of the flag. at mill
tary post, you will see how carefully 1t
