ARRANGEMENT: Flags are advanced in the usual manner. Audience repeats the Pledge of
Allegiance. Flags are posted. Patriotic background music is played while the Narrator reads the following:
"Not gold, but only men can make,
A nation great and strong.
Men who for truth and honor's sake,
Stand fast and suffer long.
Brave men who work while others sleep,
Who dares while others shy?
They build a nation's pillars deep,
And lift them to the sky."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
