WASHINGTON, March 3.—About 36,000 residents of this city, most of them employees of the federal government, have been vaccinated against smallpox since last December, the District of Columbia health department announced here. About 10,000 of these vaccinations were given by physicians of the health department and the rest by the medical staffs of various federal and district agencies. The outbreak of smallpox in nearby Pennsylvania stimulated the current vaccination drive, but Dr. George C. Ruhland, health officer of the District of Columbia, is still urging that all persons living here who have never been vaccinated should take this health protection

point—that it is strictly forbidden to use service flags on such articles as sofa cushions, handkerchiefs, paper napkins, boxes or anything for ‘temporary use and eventual discard.
SERVICE FLAGS for business houses or other large organizations may be of two kinds. They may have a separate star for each member of the organization, or they may have one large star, beneath which the total number of persons in service is shown in Arabic numerals, as at right, above. On such a flag, a gold star, representing men lost in service, should be smaller than the blue one and set at the left of it, nearer the staff if the flag is flown horizontally. If the flag is hung vertically, the gold star should be placed above the blue one. The multi-starred flag at left, above, illustrates a serious breach of rules and good taste. No service flag should bear any advertising, or indeed, any emblem, mark, insignia, word, design or picture. 8 8 »
WHEN A service flag is displayed at unveiling exercises, it must not be used as a cover -for the monument or statue, shown at left, above. Nor mu it ever be used as a drapery or\ festoon of any sort, as it is used on the speaker's stand at right. Nor must it ever touch anything beneath it, the ground, floor, win=- ~ dow sill or merchandise.
ABOVE ARE ated 4 three more general rules for service flag display. (A) Stars must always have one point upward. When flown from the same staff as the national flag (B), that of the United States. should be on top, the service flag never being above or to the right of the Stars and Stripes. Although a service flag may be of equal size, it should never be larger than the national flag with which it appears. It must never be ¢arried flat, or horizontally (C), but should always be aloft and free.
