You'd nave to be to stitch eight hours a day for three weeks making the shreds of an 1904 flag Into a trl- umphant whole, strong enough to hang on display for years, stitched with an intricately precise and knowing net stitch that suspends all the weight on a backing of the most durable Irish linen.
 This is but one of the 5000 flags this gracious lady with the bright red hair and soft voice has helped to preserve. She grew up sur- rounded by the flax-flxing activi- ties of her mother, Mrs. Amelia Fowler, whose Boston home was studio for life work with flags, Mrs. Fowler started out studying the Bayeux tapestry and brancheda into creating origin l stitches still used by Mrs. Richey, who as Katherine Fowler wasn't too much interested in needle- work.

First Letter Arrives
 From Freed Prisoner
Donald flaming Describes Thrilling Experience of Be. ing Released From ''Under the Flag of Fried Egg"
% Stephen Canty Correspondent Telephone leo

Watertown, March 2. Writing from Manila on Red Cross station- cry, Donald G. flaming, recently Q prisoner of the Japanese, has sent the following message to his father, James B. Planning, ST., of Highland avenue, Watertown.
 First off, let me assure you that I'm healthy, free, and under the Stars and Stripes. You can't im- agine what that expresses after three years of hunger, prison, and under the flag of the fried egg. Our troops came in three days ago and tn that short time have done every thing to make life seem like the beautiful dream we've been dream- ing these past three years. Tn that time have only heard from you twice and have wondered If you ever received my few and necessar- tly very restricted messages.
 Oh, golly, there's so much to say and life is so thrilling and wonderful at this point that I'm afraid this will be one horrible and incoherent tumble. I'll try and start at the beginning and give you a brief sum- mary of what happened from the time war broke a million years ago in December, Al. The Central closed down and l signed up with the Army receiving brevet lieuten- ants commission. Tho regiment l was with was transferred to Minda- noa almost immediately--to the widest part incidentally. We fought as best we could with what we had and then took to the jungle, until callad upon by the general to sur render. From then on life became very grim. what with one of the famous death marches" we took, which thanks to good health l made ok, but lost number of close friends on. About year ago l was transferred to a civilian prison camp and then to Manila. That's that.
 Repatriation is in the air, but don't be disappointed If I'm not on the first boat. l feel that ] should wait and let women, children, the old and sick have first chance. ."
 This is the first personal message that the flaming family has re" ceiyed from Donald Planning since the war reached the Philippine 1s- lands.
 At this time, when the Red Gross War Fund Drive is in progress ana residents are being asked for con- tributions 1t is of interest to note that the American Red Cross IS "on the job" in Manila.
