EDITORIAL
An American flag fluttering in the breeze at the peak of a strong flag pole
is a true sign of freedom to everyone who sees it. One gets a feeling of loyalty
when he sees such a sight, and he knows that whoever originated this idea was
proud to display this symbol of his free country.
Because a flagpole and a flag are dependent upon each other, a flag pole
without a flag can truly be called a pole without a country, and flag without
its support to the breeze seems lifeless and dormant —-a poor example of our nation.
It is a fact that Highacres has on its grounds both a pole without a country and
a perfectly usabel flag that is at present in a state of folded dormancy.
After discovering these facts, we wonder why these two objects that go so
well together are separated. After inquiring briefly, it has been discovered that
the problem of adjusting a pulley to the pole is the immediate drawback. It
has also been stated that the cost of this operation virould be no-Tnore than five
to six dollars—a comparatively little amount for a really Indispensable college
campus item.
Our flag pole is situated in a very appropriate position visible for miles
across Conyngham Valley and would be a very impressive sight if adorned with out
national symbol.
When. will our pole without a country become repatriated?
