Sec. 45.
Flag Day.
June 14, commonly known as Flag Day, is established
as a day to be observed with fitting patriotic exercises in schools,
colleges, universities, societies, clubs, and other organizations. On that
day the Flag of the United States of America shall be appropriately
displayed on all public buildings within the State of Illinois. It is also
fitting that, as a symbol of the guarantee of the sanctity of the home, the
flag be displayed from every home on that day and that, as a symbol of the
guarantee of freedom of worship, public recognition be made in all places
of worship on June 14th or on the Sunday preceding.
