Thursday, August 18, 2011 • Posted August 18, 2011

The veterans of the Wiley B. Murray Post No. 27 will meet Monday, August 22nd at the Legion Hall in San Saba for their stated meeting. The building will be opened at 5:30 p.m. for fellowship and refreshments. At 6:30 p.m. a pot lunch meal of Mexican food will be served. Members should bring their favorite Mexican food dish, salad, bread or dessert. Drinks will be provided by the post. Guests and veterans interested in joining the American Legion are invited. After the meal and a business meeting, a video program will be shown entitled, "Tribute to the Flag." It is a 2010 production of the various ways to look at our American Flag. In fact, there are seven: 1. Waving the flag. 2. Guarding the flag. 3. Photographing the flag. 4. Designing the flag. 5. Painting the flag. 6. Claiming the flag. 7. "I Love Liberty."

"Tribute to the Flag"

"Our flag says, 'I'm what you make me, nothing more. I swing before your eyes as a bright gleam of color, a symbol of yourself,'"

Our commander reminds all members to please pay their $35.00 dues which have been sent out by the national. Members can now pay their dues on-line at www.legion.org/renew or to the adjutant at the meeting.

Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior, Flag Day Address, 1914.
