The

drew
a
larger
crowa
than

The

from
the

Around

were

They

in

and
I

wonderful.
I
had
the
pleasure
of
meeting
Mr.
Swain
of
the
American
Red
Cross
yesterday
afternoon
when
he
paid
us
a
visit
and
I
had
the
addi
tional
pleasure
of
thanking
him
In
person
for
the
gifts
of
two
American
flags
given
us
last
summer
by
the
King
County
Branch
of
the
American
Red
Cross
in
Seattle.
It
turns
out
that
Mr.
Swain
was
organizer
of
that
very
branch
for
several
years.
Wasn't
it
lucky
that
I
had
my
British
flag
to
match
the
American
one
and
had
both
flags
placed
only
last
week
