51 OUR FLAG

There are many flags in many lands,

There are flags of every hue,

But there is no flag in any land

Like our own Red, White, and Blue.

Then “Hurrah for the Flag! ”our country's flag,

Its stripes and white stars, too;

There is no flag in any land

Like our own Red, White, and Blue.

(Mary Howliston)
