Judges in Gowns:

1t is reported that the Ohio State Bar

Idea that IN order to. be truly patriotic.

necessary to make war upon and exter-
inmate anything and everything that
was or could be regarded as bearing
any resemblance to royalty or what
dignity. Thus this free. democratic peo-
pie became in many respects entirely too
democratic. They could not. or. at least.

of discarding the bad and holding fast
TO all the good to be found in the Gus
toms of the mother country. They dis
carded pretty much everything they
could possibly spare that was English,
simply because 1t was English.
AS new communities and new States
were formed to the westward, the very
air seemed to invite simpler life, and
this antiEnglish feeling became more
pronounced as the star of empire trav-
eled toward the setting sun. The sim

pcndence Day than usual. and we had
fondly hoped that our friends beyond
the Mason and Dixon line and the Ohio
River had become sane enough to adopt
the good old southern way of celebrating
the nations birthday, We were disap-
pointed. for later returns show that the
Fourth OF July has been celebrated this
! year with casualties more numerous than
last year, and probably more numerous
than in any preceding year. The dead ara
