EDITORIALS Saturday Is Flag Day As we celebrate Flag Day on June 14th many American citizens may wonder why June 14th was selected as Flag Day rather than any other day in the year for the special recognition event. June 14th is the anniversary of the adoption of the Flag. The Order of Elks led the way and developed the pattern for what is now the nationally recognized observance of Flag Day. Actually, the presidential proclamation for Flag Day observance was signed less than ten years ago; of course, many patriotic and fraternal organizations observed Flag Day before that official recognition, but it is the Order of Elks that may rightly claim the honor of having pioneered not only the observance but also the name and the day. At the Grand Lodge Session in 1907, following discussion as to various suggested names and dates, it was voted that the day be June 14th, the anniversary of the adoption of the Flag, and that it be known as Elks Flag Day. In 1908 the Elks special Flag Day ritual was adopted and the annual observance by each lodge was made mandatory. Following this initial step, Flag Day has now, by Congressional endorsement and universal adoption, became Flag Day for all our citizens. Elks showed their Americanism and loyalty again in June, 1922, the first issue of The Elks Magazine was published with a Flag Day cover and contained the Pledge of Allegiance. It is ironic that in a land of freedom and liberty we take the American Flag so much for granted. We take it for granted so much, for instance, that it is hard to locate IN THE DAY OF LONG AGE 75 Years Ago... June 1883 To C. W.

It is ironic that in a land of freedom and liberty we take the American Flag so much for granted. We take it for granted so much, for instance, that it is hard to locate a retail store where the national emblem is on sale. Clubs, lodges, churches and institutions which want to purchase the national emblem made up in special materials, with gold fringe or on special standards must usually write to specialty houses in Chicago or New York for such service. Here in Anaheim we have checked and find that Webers Book Store has a good assortment of the national emblem. It has the American Flag in various sizes and carried a window display a few days before Memorial Day. There must be many other stores in Anaheim which have the national emblem on sale for the convenience of patriotic citizens. It would have been good to have had the Flags displayed in store windows and called attention to the fact that displaying the Flag on Flag Day would have made all those who see it a little more conscious of what the Flag stands for and what it means to every free American. Let us not take this Flag so much for granted. Let us not take the freedom for which it stands, or for the liberty it represents so much for granted. On this Flag Day of 1958 it would be wonderful for all of us to say a prayer to ourselves that we are privileged to live in the land of the free and the home of the brave. Vice President Nixon has emphasized that the jobs of more than 4,500,000 Americans depend upon foreign trade, and that we exported some $8 billion worth of non-military goods last year. He quoted Cordell Hull as saying: "Either goods will cross borders or soldiers will." The five largest bridges in the United States are the Golden Gate, Mackinac Straits, George Washington, Tacoma Narrows, and the San Francisco-Oakland Bridge.

LAW IN ACTION GETTING A PATENT The nub of a patent is that it must contribute to the progress of science or the useful arts. Patents are granted to encourage America's technological advances. First write out a record of your device," telling what it is and how it works, with drawings or photographs. Date and sign these papers as "inventor." Then explain your invention to someone you can trust and likely will be able to find in years to come. Have him sign and date each page. You may need him later to prove when and to whom you first told of your invention. Then see if your invention is "probably patentable." Lawyers experienced in patent work are well able to have a search made for patents already in your field. Next, if all is well, apply for your patent. Your application has four main parts: (1) Your specification describes how to make and use your invention. (2) Your drawings show how you plan to carry out your invention. (3) Your claims cover the scope of your exclusive rights for each new feature or combination. (4) Your petition and power of attorney, sworn to before a notary public, says that you believe the invention is yours, that it has not been publicly used, on sale, or published for more than one year, and not patented elsewhere. At the patent office specialists examine your application. The examiner may write you raising questions or pointing out earlier patents and publications. Sometimes he may refuse to grant a patent because of prior inventions or discoveries of others. This prior act can sometimes be overcome if you revise your claims. If all goes well, he will then allow you a patent on your invention. Marking your device "patent applied for" has no legal effect, but may discourage copyists. However, it is illegal to use these words unless you have, in fact, applied. Note: California lawyers offer this column so you may know about our laws. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO BY MRS.
