ALL-IN A DAY Maybe this communication, which was in the morning mail, will jack up a little patriotism among those of us who need it: To the Editor: Lincoln's birthday, Washington's birthday, and the most colorful, most meaningful flag in all the world 5s conspicuous by it's absence. A meaningless Mummers parade, justly called an advertising stunt," and the town is ablaze with Old Glory, What's the answer? Surely this city isn't'so smug in its own importance that a national holiday should lcave.it so blase.

Regardless of nationality, religious creed I'll -wager there isn't a soul in all of Hagerstown who doesn't cherish the God I am an American." Then why this apparent thoughtless afront to the "Flag?" Why this seeming indifference to our famous men of history whose birthday we ignore? Where is this supposedly active post of the American Legion? Incidentally, strangers seeing the flag atop our Post Office will think anything but kindly towards Hagerstown. The condition of that flag is positively disgraceful. An Indignant American. Our only comment is'that somewhere, somehow there must he people who are more nationalistic-ally conscious. Otherwise, how could there be two million American flags made and sold in the United States each year? A statistician has figured out that there are seven thousand babies born each day, a population increase of two and a half million persons each That means that we make an American flag for eighty per cent of the babies born each year.

We quote these facts as an answer to those who would have us that the spirit of America is dead. Here is inspiring evidence that the. love of liberty still is vitally alive in our land! Two million people don't go around buying things they don't really want. Council Of Churches To Be Organized Here A meeting will be held this evening at 7:30 o'clock at the Zion Reformed Church for the purpose.of organizing the Council of Churches which will succeed the Washington County Council of Religious Education.
