Displaying the Flag = from New York Jan, 22 \South America Woy the flag is displayed other than by being flown from a staff, it should be displayed flat, whether indoors or out. When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the union (that portion of the flag which contains the forty-eight white stars in a blue field) should be uppermost and to the flag's own right; that is, to the observer's left. When displayed in a window, it should be displayed the same way; that is, work the union or blue field to the left of the observer in the street. When festoons, rosettes, or draping of blue, white and red are desired, bunting should be used, but never the flag. When displayed over the middle of the street, as between buildings, the flag should be suspended vertically, with the union to the north in an east and west street, or to the east in a north and south street. Take curb flags down at sunset; they should not be left out at night. Suggestions . No disrespect should be shown the flag of the United States of America. . The flag should not be dipped to any person or any thing. The regimental color, state flag, organization or institution flag will render this honor. . The flag should not be displayed with the union down except as a signal of distress. 4, No flag or penant should be placed above or to the right of the flag of the United States of America. . The flag should not touch the ground or the floor, or trail in the water. 6. No object or emblem of any kind should be placed on or above the flag of the United States of America. 7. The flag should not be used as drapery in any form whatever. Use bunting of blue, white and red. 8. The flag should not be fastened in such a manner that it will be easily torn. 9. The flag should not be draped over the roof, top, sides or back of a vehicle or of a railroad train or boat. When the flag is displayed on a motor car, the staff should be affixed firmly to the chassis or clapped to the radiator cap.
