Honor the vict’ry thy fair folds have won;
Tho’ multiplied stars float in freedom serene,
Enshrined in our hearts is The Old Thirteen.

The Home Magazine contains the following beautiful suggestion regarding the placing of the stars on the flag:
Number 1 is the field of our first stars and stripes made by Betsy Ross.
Number 2 represents that field of flag of 1814 which inspired the “Star Spangled Banner.”
