ON PATRIOTS DAY.
New Englsnds Great Anniversary
Described BY q Dickinson Boy.

Described BY q Dickinson Boy
For the Reflector.
CAMBRIDaE, Mass, April 20,-The
10th Of April 10 great day for the
people of Lexington and Concord and
the neighboring towns, This year.
as il happened, the 10th came on Sum
day. consequently the celebration was
held on Monday, the goth. This part
Of Massachusetts is 80 closely inter-
woven with trolley lines that people
from distance can easily attend
these celebrations. As the roads were
good, the weather fair, and the SKY
almost as bright as a Kansas sunshine
we preferred the bicycle to the trolley
and started for Lexington. We were
not missed on the trolley cars, how
ever, a. they all seemed TO be filed to
overaowing, and indeed many extra
cars were needed to accommodate the
people. As this was our first expert
ence in this part Of the union, We
we're somewhat curious to know how
the people Of New England celebrated
q holiday.
By the time we arrived in Lexing-
ton, many people had already as-
sembled on the green" upon which
are erected monuments which tell the
story Of that momentous day april
10, 1775. 1t needs only few miu-
utes to look over the green" snd
visit the interesting places. The In
| scriptions on the monuments are not
elaborate, but they tell, In simple
way, what took place there on7 hun
dred and twenty eight years ago.
Nearly the whole story is tod IN one
inscription as follows;
stand your ground,
Don't FIRE unless fred upon.
But II they mean to have war
Let IL begin here"
The crowd continued to decrease
until the park seemed mass q
human beings, yet one particularly
impressive thing was the absence O
the aged and middle aged. Youth
seemed to have control Of the day and
| ali nature was glad. The boy, who
4 for the first had been allowed out Of
his mothers sight, was there bubbline

the small boy played together tn
"two for a nickel" and flour for nv

Thus was the birth of American ho
erty celebrated in Lexington.

distant, we decided to go there !
