Some wears ago l stood on Bunker
hill IN the early days of June. II was
the Tooth anniversary of that battle for
freedom. The city of Boston was dec
Grated as 1t was never decorated De-
fore. Triumphal arches spsnned Its
streets, banners and draperies fes-
TONED its magnificent buildings, and
ALI the resources OF embeliish-
ment beautitied It's homes. Music, pro-
cessions and all the outward man
| ifestations of human Joy paid praise TO
the valor and glory OF the fathers OF
| the revolution. 1t seemed like new
dawn of the great day OF Independence,
with the memories and the achieve
ments of hundred years behind it.
| All this was tribute which the men OF
today bestowed upon the men of the
revolution. 1t was heartfelt, 1t was
| worthy, il was deserved.
Nevertheless, let us honor the silent
| heroism Of the independent citizen who
maintains his own rights, and thereby
| helps to guard the rlghs OF all. His
courage aud his virtue may not be rec
ognized by such triumphant celebra-
| tons as / have seen On freedoms ami
versaries in Paris and In Boston, but
they are all the same, as manly, as
| genuine, and az telling strokes for lib
| erty a. a. wers those that helped to
level the bastiIe. [Cheers and cries Of
