To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whether we are native born or only citizens by adoption, we are part of a new nation under God, conceived in libertj^ and dedicated to. the lofty ideals of our fore- fathers. We have seen that in their wisdom thej'^ did not create their country first and then fashion a 'banner to represent it, but in the early years of that struggle, they adopted a definite flag and under its folds they went forth to conquer the right to call themselves a free and independent people. That flag was the Cambridge... flag, adopted by Washington, the army and navy, and the Continental Congress. It was the first American flag to wave over the thirteen united Colonies.
A year after the Declaration of Independence, Congress adopted a -4iiearsure which prescribed that this flag should consist of thirteen stripes and stars to represent the 13 original .states. In 1795, Con- gress changed the flag to fifteen stripes and stars, intending to add a new stripe and a new star for every new state. After more states 'had been added to the Union a member of Congress stood up and said : "If the Union keeps on increasing at its present rate, you will soon find that the tallest pine in the forests of Maine will not 'be high enough to serve as a flag staff." And it was then decided that the permanent form for the flag should be thirteen stripes alternate red and white and one star for eacli state in the Union.
