A DAY TO CELEBRATE
It has been asked. “What kind of
a fourth are we going to have this
yeaf? .Are We going to measure pat
riotism by the amount of firecrackers
we shoot off, or are we going to mak *
it a day of solemnity; another day like
May 30th?”
Tlnf Fourth of July above all things
in a day of celebration. The original
Fourth celebrated it’s Declaration of
Liberty by th®. Wowing of horns, the
tinging <*f bf-^H, the firing of flint
lock muskets and speeches by the
fbeiest orators in the community.
Since, then the day has developed such
different modes of expression that its
meaning has sometimes been obscured.
Grouchy • old citizens have called it.
“A tfiiy for .kids to*get their Angers
Having l^een victorious in all our
wars It is natural that we should crow
a little about our fighting men and the
•manner in which we back them up.
fourth of July is our duy to crow, and
with good cause. Warring never in
the spirit of conquest or oppression,
hut always Jn stern defense of our
laws and ideals, we have reached that
point in the World’s history where we
are considered a mighty fine nation to
leave alone—^-We are not considered
“good pickings” for any of them.
Two years ago the boys in France
celebrated the Fourth by a colossal
and terrific onslaught on the enemy.
Nothing could stop-them. It seemed
tihat every last eoldicir had caught
the true meaning of the spirit of the
day. They were in a high tension of
anxiety to get as close as possible to
the cneimo'; throw as many hand gre
nades as possible at . him and to fire
and blue away at the slightest op
portunity with evory conceivable fire
arm they could pick up. Small wonder
that, the Germans lost all hope of win
ning the War after the battle of
Chateau-Thelrry. the entire success a?
which was made possible by the sweep
ing victory of July Fourth.
f*o let’s celebrate the Fourth this
year. Let’s make of it the one day
in all the year. Let’s combine the
fire-crackers, cap-pistols and general
racket of the little ones with a deeper
and more thorough appreciation of the
day then we older ones ever had be
fore. Let's make but one qualification
necessary to enter Into our triumphal
anniversary. Lei's be the best Amerl.
cans we know how to be and—LET’S
CELEBRATE.
