*:::::iº CTING in obedience to the provisions of
tº Chapter 146 of the Public Acts of 1905, I hereby
ſº designate Thursday, the fourteenth of June, as
FLAG DAY
The Continental Congress, on June fourteenth, 1777,
Selected the emblem which has ever since continued
to be the flag of this country, and the Law which pro-
vides that this anniversary day be set apart as Flag Day,
directs that suitable exercises shall be held in the public
schools having reference to its adoption.
I recommend that this day be observed, not alone in
the schools, but by all the people of this State, and I
urge that the flag of our common country be generally
displayed on that day from all public buildings, houses
and places of business.
Let us be mindful on Flag Day of the sacrifice and
devotion which have been given to make this country free
and united, and let us resolve that in the days of peace
our loyalty to its welfare may be none the less earnest.
agº. Given under my hand and seal of the State, at the Capitol in Hartford,
º this Twenty-eighth day of May, in the year of our Lord, one
thousand nine hundred and six, and the independence of the
United States, the one hundred and thirtieth.
HENRY ROBERTs.
By His Excellency's Command:
THEODORE BODEN WEIN.
Secretary.
