The number of stars Is the same as the number of States in the Union. The can ton or union now contains forty-eight stars arranged in six horixontal and eight vertical rows, each atar with one point up ward. On the admission of a State into the Union a star will be added to the union of the Flag, and such addition will take effect on the July 4th next succeed ing such admission. The proportions of the Flag as pre scribed by Executive Order of President Taft, October 29, 1912, are as follows: Holst (width) of Hag .1. Fly (length) of flag .1» Hoist (width) of union ."/*» Fly (length) of union .0.14 Width of each stripe .*/** Diameter of eaeh star .0414 CODE OF THE FLAG 1 THE Flag should be displayed only 1# from sunrise to sunset, or between such hours as may be designated by proper authority. It should be hoisted briskly but should be lowered slowly and ceremoni ously. The Flag should be displayed on all national and state holidays and on his toric and special occasions. However, be ing the emblem of our country. It ought to fly from every flagpole every day throughout the year, weather permitting. 2. When carried in a procession with another flag or flags, the Flag of the United States of America should be either . OB tho morehing right—i*.. th* FUg** suiarsi its -“K ifi^ Su / of America may be In front of the center of that line. 8. When diiplayed with another nag against a wall from crowed itaffa, the Flag of the United State* of America ▼ ▼ should be on the right—the Flag's own right—and Hi staff should be In front of the staff of ths other flag. 4. When a number of flags of states or cities or pennants of societies are grouped and displayed from staffs with ^ w the Flag of the United State* of America, the latter ahonld be at the center or at the highest point of the group. 6. When flags of states or cities or pen nants of societies are flown on the same halyard with the Flag of the United State* of America, the latter ihould always be a* the peak. When flown from adjacent staffs the Flap of the United States of America should be hoisted first and lowered last. No such flag or pennant, flown In the for mer position, should be placed above, or. In the latter position, to the right of the Flag of the United States of America—l.e., to the observer's left. 6. When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they should be flown from separate staffs of the same height and the « n -LU-—Ul flags should be of approximately equal sixe. International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation above that of an other nation in time of peace. 7. When the Flag is displayed from a staff projecting horixontally or at an angle from the window sill, balcony or front ox building, the union of the Fix should go clear to the peak of the etalf unlesa the Flag la at half etalf. When the Flag Is expended over a sidewalk from a rope, ex tending from a houae to a pole at the edge of the lidewalk, the Flag ihonld be belated oat from the building toward* the pole, onion flret. 8. When the Flag ie diiplayed in a man ner other than by being flown from a ataff It ihould be diiplayed flat, whether in door! or oat When diiplayed either hori aontally or rertloally agatnit a wall, the union should be uppermost and to the Flag's own right—I.e., to the observer’s left. When displayed in a window it should be displayed the same way—with the union or blue field to the left of the bserver in inuii the street. When festoons, rosettes, or drapings are desired, bunting of blue, white and red should be used, but never the Flag. 9. When displayed over the middle of the street, the Flag should be suspended vertically with the union to the north in A ^ an east end west street, or to the east In a north and south street. 10. When used on a speaker’s platform, the Flag, if displayed flat, should be dis played ubove and behind the speaker. If flown from a staff, it should be in the po sition of honor, at the speaker's right. It should never be used to cover the speaker’s desk or to drape over the front of tne plat form. 11. When used in connection with the unveiling of a statue or monument, the Flag should form a distinctive feature dur ing the ceremony, but the Flag itself should never be used as the covering for the statue. r 111— A A 12. When flown at half-staff, the Flag should be hoisted to the peak for an in stant and then lowered to the half-staff position; but before lowering the Flag for the day it should be raised again to the peak. By half-staff is meant hauling down the flag to one-half the distance between A A the top and the bottom of the staff. If local conditions require, divergence from this position is permissible. On Memorial Day, May 30th, the Flag is displayed at half-staff from sunrise until noon and at full staff from noon until sunset, for the nation lives, and the Flag is the symbol of the living nation. 13. Flags flown from fixed staffs are placed at naif-staff to indicate mourning. When the Flag is displayed on a small staff, as when carried in a parade, mourn ing is indicated by attaching two stream ers of black cr£pe to the spear head, al lowing the streamers to fall naturally. CrSpe is used on the flagstaff only by order of the President. 14. When used to cover a casket, the Flag should be placed so that the union is root at the head and over the left ahoulder. The Flag should not be lowered into the gTave or allowed to touch the ground. The casket should be carried foot first. 15. When the Flag is displayed in the body of the church it should be from a staff placed in the position of honor—at the congregation’s right as they face the clergyman. The service flag, tne state flag or other flag should be at the left of the A * rw congregation. If in the chancel or on the platform, the Flag of the United States of America should be placed at the clergy I A man’s right as he faces the congregation, and the other flags at his left. 16. When the Flag is in such a condi tion that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, it should not be cast aside or used in any way that might be viewed as disrespectful to the national colors, but should be destroyed as a whole, privately, preferably by burning or by some othsr method in harmony with the reverence and respect we owe to the emblem representing oar country.
