THE TRUE LOVE OF COUNTRY
Always Puts First and Foremost
Loyalty to Highest Ideals of
Character and Conduct.

The nation to which we belong has
become very different nation in inn
portant respects within recent years.
1t has assumed new and different re-
sponsibilities. It's relation to other
nations has altered materially and
finally. 1t is not strange that differ
ences of opinion about many questions
have arisen. But one thing remains
certain. The nature of patriotism,
that is, the true love of country, never
alters, and the true patriot as he faces
the new conditions must not expect
that new principles are to be revealed
to him, but that the old familiar prin-
ciples are to find new opportunities,
and perhaps new methods, of illustra-
ton and service. AS the national cele-
bration of independence returns, it
can bring with it no more vita1ly bene-
fetal suggestion than this-that true
love of country always is one and the
same, and that it puts first and fore
most loyalty to the highest ideals of
| character and conduct which God has
revealed to man.-Boston Congrega-
| tionalist.

you had to stop in front of both
of them, because they were always

Miss Dottie Thompson and-and-
young ladies'" began Tommy Trott,
with defiant and yet bashful glance
at Aggie Davis. "You have slandered
and insulted us boys by saying we
couldn't be generous and self-sacrific-
ing, and us boys want you to know
that there's all our Fourth of July
money-in bunch-and us boys want
to know where's yours-and you can
have it all and welcome. And as my
father says: Now put up or shut up!'
And we wish it was more-and we
don't want anybody to die and now
iss-s-s-Swinton can go on her
vacation--and-an all" And
with very red face Tommy turned
and tried to bolt.
But Aggie Davis was too quick for
him. She caught him by the front of
his jacket with one hand, and with
her eyes full of tears and her pretty

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH"
The One Distinctively American
Holiday, But One That Needs Re-
forming Along Certain Lines.

The adult American who thinks
what a gap it would make in the mem
cries which he treasures to wipe out
all those relating to the Fourth of
July will scarcely object to the noise
of that fearsome festival, even though
he freely admits that it is no longer
the music that once it was to him.
The Fourth of July is the one dis
tinctively American holiday. Scien-
fists cannot dig down in the records
and discover that the Chinese knew
about it thousands of years ago. It
belongs solely to us, and if any for
eigner does not like the way we cele-
brate it he would do we'll to keep his
objections to himself.
At the same time the dreary lists Of
killed, MANNED and grievously strick-
en-, the tortured nerves of feeble folk,
the burning houses and all the other
sorry results of slambang patriotism
show us that the GLORIOUS Fourth" is
in some respects an inglorious day
which needs reforming along lines
that shall eliminate from it mayhem,
child slaughter and arson and shall
restore those elements of real happi-
ness and pleasing celebration which
have been frightened away by broad
sides from the horse pistols of howl
ing idiots and ceaseless cannonading
of deadly paper tubes loaded with
dynamite.
The Fourth of July is unquestion-
ably good thing, however you
survive it.-Chicago Daily Record.

when she came back in the fall, just
before Thanksgiving, "stingy old
Barker" told her aunt she might bring
Sallie to stay with her until her uncle
came back.
"'Tain't likely she'll eat enough to
bankrupt me-" he muttered "Any-
how, I amt goin' to let no passed. Of

In spite of the absence of fireworks,
and lemonade, and ice cream, all the
children-boys and girls too-agreed
that they'd never had so jolly Fourth
of July before, but they changed their
minds the next year.
What happened? Oh, you can guess,
can't you? Well, I'll help you out a
little. I'll just whisper two or three
words in your ear-"Sallie's uncle

Meanwhile Dottie and. Tottie,

Meanwhile Dottie and Tottie, as
everybody called them, though their
real names were Sarah Josephine and
Amelia Ann, walked straight down to
the playground, and all the primary
scholars followed them, and they
found all the big girls and lindergar-
ten tots waiting for them in the shade
under the big elm.
what did she say?" cried the big
gest girl.
rs it all true-every bit?" anxious
ly asked the very ittlest one.
The twins nodded solemnly and Dot
tie cried:
sAnd 1 most know that lovely Miss
Swinton is going to give up her vaca-
ton and spend the money for that
poor sick Sallie-and she didn't ought
to, eos she's all run down anyway, my
mother says, and first thing she knows
she'll be sick herself" and Dottie
looked mournfully round on her COM
panions and gave a pathetic little
sniff
"And whatever should we do if Miss
Swinton died." dolefully mourned
Tottie.
BY thisrtime all the Kindergarten tots
and more than half of the Primaries
were in tears, and the rest were sniff

face all flushed with surprise and joy,
she held out the other hand to him,
crying:
Shake hands, Tommy. I'll take it
all back. Boys can be generous and
self-sacrifcing and smart too, Tom
my" Then she laughed little and
Tommy twisted away, and with shout
of: "Come on, fellers!" ran down to
the fence and jumped over it-three
times standing jump, and it was
most as high as Tommy's head, too.
Nobody stopped to play on the way
home that noon. Everybody ran just
as fast as their legs could carry them
that is-everybody but the Thomp-
son twins. They walked very slowly
indeed, weighed down by the respon-
sibility of taking care of all that
money.
Miss Swinton, when she went to the
window at five minutes past IL, won
dering at the unusual silence, opened
her eyes in astonishment. Not boy
or girl was in sight except the Thomp-
son twins, and they were slowly and
carefully turning the corner.
That afternoon when school opened
Dottie and Tottie walked up to Miss
Swinton's desk and carefully laid on it
two open boxes. One was nearly full
of pennies, five-cent bits, dimes, quar-
tiers and halves, and one big silver
"cart-wheel." In the other reposed
leathern pouch from whose open
mouth issued perfect stream of
varied coins.
"Yessum,'' said Dottie, in answer to
an inquiring glance from her teacher.
'sThey're from us-it's the money for
our firecrackers-"
"And lemonade and ice cream" put
in Tottie.
"And why do you bring it to me-?
Do you want me to buy them for you
so you can celebrate here at school?'
"Oh, mol" pleased" cried Dottie; give
it to Sallie Manson and then"
"And then you can go away"
"And have vacation"
sAnd Sallie'n get we'll"
"And you won't get tired out and
d-i-e-e," finished the twins together,
throwing four chubby arms round
Miss Swinton's neck and bursting into
tears, while they Rugged her till they
almost choked her to death.
When she could get her breath, Miss
Swinton thanked them all in such sim
pie, earnest words that even the lit
| tlest child understood how good and
brave and kind she thought they were.
| Then she kissed all the girls and shook
hands with all the boys-and proud

works or refreshments. But the hap
DIV face of Sallie's aunt, as she thanked
them all for the chance of life they
had given her little niece, was better
than all the fireworks in the world;
and when Mr.. Sutphen made them a
speech and told them how proud he
was of the boys and girls of Ward Five,
| it filed their hearts so full that no
| body thought of refreshments.
And did the big, big boys and girls
in Mr.. Sutphen's own school do any
thing to help?
Why, of course they did! You didn't
suppose they would let the little ones
get ahead of them in generosity, did
you?
And between the two schools they
raised little over 5000. So you see
there was enough to let Miss Manson
go with Sallie to take care of her, and

THERE'S ALL OUR FOURTH
fling, and even the big girls looked red
eyed and mournful.
'And my mamma said that Fourth
of July would be here day after to-
morrow, and I'd have some money
then-all my own-and 1 asked her If
I might and she said: Yes"
might what?"
"What did you ask her?"
Glow much money will you have?"
'What did she say?"
els it all your own?"
Dottie looked around with the ap-
proving self-conscious smile that
comes from superior virtue, and Tot
tie answered for her sister:
"Of course it's all our own and
mamma said yes-we might give it to
Salle Manson-and I said I was going
to ask everybody to give theirs too,
and then maybe Miss Swinton would
MT have to stay at home and die"
Dottie nodded solemnly and looked
eagerly around.
''It's the Fourth of July money" she
said, explanatory 'The money we'd
spend for firecrackers and torpedoes
and lemonade and going to Boston to
see the balloon"
"And the soldiers" chimed in Tottie.
"And the fireworks" finished Dot
tie. Mamma says it's always half a
dollar apiece, and most always more,
and she'll give us that, anyway, and
papa says maybe he'll chip in, too
'Do you mean you're going to give
up your frecrackers and torpedoes
for the Fourth?" asked a big boy,
incredulously. ''Huh, you would be a
fool!"
Dottie turned on him.
''Yes, I am," she snapped. "Guess
I'd rather never, never see a frecrack-
er again than to have my dear Miss
Swinton d-i-e-e," and the blazing blue
eyes filled with tears at the mere
thought.
"Or poor little Sallie Manson,
either" snapped Tottie.
Don't mind him, DEAR" cried Aggie
Davis, the prettiest of the big girls.
Boys are mean things anyway. They
couldn't be self-sacrifcing if they
tried. We girls will all help you, Dot
| tie. We can give up things that we
like better than boys like firecrack-
ers, and I'm going to ask mamma to
take backthat lovely blue sunshade she
bought me yesterday-I guess Mr..
Black will give her back the money
when he knows what want it for"
ooh, how lovely of you'll"
"Isn't that beautiful of her?" the
girls chorused admiringly, and Tom
my Trott got red in the face and
walked off over to the other corner
of the yard, winking to the boys to
follow him-and they did, even though
there wasn't bit of shade there and
the big thermometer stood at SO de-
grees.
| Tommy whispered to his cronies,
and they grinned and chuckled and
nudged each other, and hunted in their
pockets, and Tommy logged out a big
leather pouch, and Jim Brastow got
out a pencil and paper and wrote down
the names of every boy who put in
something in one column, and the
names of every boy who promised
something in another column-that
was a pretty short column because
every boy had his Fourth of July mon
ey, for the Fourth was only two days
off, and they'd been saving ever since
Christmas. After awhile Jim Brastow
got all the names written down, then
he put his pencil in his pocket and
Tommy pulled the strings of his pouch
up as tight as he possibly could lit was
