W E have seen the Flag floating in front of t he post office, watched our boy* and girls pledge it allegiance. We remember it on many a Fourth of July picnic in the long ago. All our peace­ ful ye terdays we have taken it for granted. T oday it is fiercely and proudly at war. N' m n y of us ave really seeing it for the first time. We know that we may lose all it has ever stood for • suddenly, it has become the most precious thing in the world. There it goes, flutter- the khaki lines. A lump gets in our throat and we cannot speak because we love it so much.
