Fourth of July Wednesday. How
shall it be celebrated? Those of us VIII
have been boys have no desire to curtai
the patriotism of safe and sane cele
bration. In view Of the number OF sic
people in the village at this time, +
whom the noise will be torture, it woul
seem that the purposes of patriotism
might be served by the ringing of bell
for half hour or an hour at morning
noon and night and that the explosive
might be confined to powder instead
dynamite. Let's be reasonable about
and ''cut out" all hoodlumism and de
struction to property. Let's remembe
that every unreasonable and unlawful
act is blow to the reputation and hes
interests of village that every one o
you are proud of and would be the frs
to defend
Miss Helen Brown of Plainfield, N. j.
is guest Chas. l.. Cases's.
