i the work the United Daughters of
j the Confederacy is doing through
l out the state, and said that she
hoped to see in every home and ev
ery school in the stale, the three most
important things to her mind: a
United States flag, a Georgia flag
and a Confederate flag. The children
need to know and reverence these
flags.
