Engage the local bands and have the children join in the parade in which all societies and organizations should have a part. Although in most localities, July 1st falls after the close of the school, arrangements should be made well in advance to have teachers and school children attend in a body. This will be the only op- portunity in this generation to celebrate in a great national way the founding of Confederation. School Children. 7. Teachers and school children should assemble at their own schools, where souvenir medals issued by the National Executive Committee Hay be be pressnted before the parade and celebration. Floats and 8. In the parades, floats portraying the history of our country should be included. If floats cannot be made, the school children or young people might arrange historical tableaux with suitable dances and music. A booklet is in course of preparation by.the National Committee, giving details as to how floats and tableaux of this kiné can be easily prepared. This will be forwarded to local committee on application. New comers * 10. Newcomers in all districts should be especially invited to take part in community celebrations. All who love Canada and who aspire to be good Canadians should be made welcome: Old Settlers Where there are old settlers they should be especially asked to join in the celebrations. If there are any Indians in the vicinity they should be asked to participate in the procession and in the subsequeint cere- monies. Do not overlook the earliest inhabitants. Saluting the Flag Wherever public ceremonies are held, the flag should be flown in a conspicuous place. On arrival, procession should march past the flag and salute.
