Read this sentence from the text:

"The U. S. flag should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions, handkerchiefs,

and the like; printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that

is designed for temporary use and discarded; or used as any portion of a costume or athletic uniform."

How could this sentence best be broken in two?

- The U.S. flag should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions, handkerchiefs, and the like. It should not be printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discarded, or used as any portion of a costume or athletic uniform.

Explanation:

The given sentence exemplifies a quite lengthy sentence that is written in a series that includes various details about the U.S. flag demarcated by the use of semicolons(;) which aim to proffer a clear and concise meaning to the reader. However, the length makes the sentence a bit monotonous for the readers as it includes a wide range of descriptions without any kind of break in between.

As per the question, the given sentence could best be divided into two distinct parts by breaking the sentence right after the very first sentence(The U.S. flag...like') with the introduction of a full stop as the rest of the sentence offers a united thought('It should not be ...uniform). This division helps convey the meaning of the sentence more coherently and effectively as it breaks the monotony in order to make it more impactful and coherent.
