Evening Republican, Volume 22, Number 153, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 July 1919 — Displaying the Flag. [ARTICLE]

Displaying the Flag.

There is no federal flag law now in force pertaining to the manner of displaying or hanging flag, but custom decrees that the union shall be hung to the north* or east when the flag is suspended otherwise than from a flagpole, inside o outside of a building. The stripes should be perpendicular to the ground or floor. These suggestions are embodied in a report on the subject made by the adjutant general of the army. $
