THE MAKING OF THE FLAG
How did we malte the flog?
By Rule?
By compass and square and line?
With pattern and thread and the
sempsters’ tools,
To follow the plain design?
Was it only the lore that the drafts
men knew <
That gave us the red, and the white,
and blue?
How did we'make the flag?
Not all „
By measuring stitch and seam;
For part of it came from, a country
call
And part of It is a dream—
Is a vision that led brave souls aright
And gave us the red, and the blue,
and white.
How did we make the flag?
In peace
We fashioned it fold on fold;
In war it; was blend with the grim ca
price
The drams in their summons rolled
'Twas the courage alike of the quick
and dead
That gave ua the blue, and the white
and red.
How did we make the flag?
’Twas thus
It came to its grace and worth
Through all that is good In the souls
of t» <
The banner has had its birth;
’•Twas the holier strength of the pur
pose true
That gave us the red, arid the white,
and blue.
Thus have we made the flag?
, Ah, no! ,
By colors that will not fade,
By sinuous sweep and by deathless
, ‘ glow,
’Tiq us that the flag has made 1
And it whispers today to each star-
, told state:
“You must hold me high and ,must
keep me great!"
—By Wilbur D. Nesbit, Author
