The Committee FRATERNAL Continued from page 1 of Flag Birth Day’ on June 14, 1885, with a flag ten inches high, carrying 38 stars, standing in a bottle on the teacher’s desk. After thirty-one years of crusading by Dr. Cigrand, President Woodrow Wilson on June 14, 1916, proclaimed the national observance of Flag Day. ” In a 1917 Flag Day message, President Wilson said: “This flag which we honor and under which we serve, is the emblem of our unity, our power, our thought and purpose as a nation. It has no other character than that which ice give it from generation to generation. The choices are ours. ’’ For many years fraternalists who are members of the National Fraternal Congress of America and the members of National Fraternal Flag Day Foundation, have continued the cause taken up by Dr. Cigrand and the challenge given by President Wilson. Thus, each year a seven day period ending on Flag Day is known as “Fraternal Week." The National Fraternal Flag Day Foundation has made a simple, quiet shrine of the stony Hill Schoolhouse. Each year, “Foundation” members conduct a flag raising ceremony in the schoolyard to help make the American Flag and the lessons in Americanism it represents more meaningful to all Americans.
