BIRTHDAY OF The NATION
HOW 1T is BEING CELEBRATED
IN ARDMoRE-sAsEBALL
AND .lCNlCS.

Almost every business house in the
city is closed today in commemoration
OF the one hundred and thirty-first an
nivrsary Of our national independence.
without a proclamation from the
mayor or any plea on the part of any
city official the business men OF the
city agreed to close their doors for
the day
An occasional boom Of a firecracker
and the firing of roman candle last
night announced that the little Nlks
We're already awake to the fact that
the glorious Fourth was here.
No extensive preparations were
made for the observance of the
Fourth in Ardmure but every one had
perfected their plans for spending the
day and early this morning several
picnicing parties left the city for the
shady nooks Of the forest. All of the
| public buildings Of the city are deco
/ rated with the nations flag, while
/ Old Glory floats from hundreds Of
| flag poles over the city and is seen on
almost every door in the business dis
/ trict The residence part Of the city
trict The residence part of the cits
is alive with the bright colors of red,
white and blue.
The principal event Of the day for
/ the amusement OF the city folk and
visitors. was the double header ball
game played by the Ardmore and
Jacksburo teams. one game Of which
was played this morning and one thi,
afternoon.
The history Of the day which We are
celebrating is known to every school
child. and there is a sentiment Of rev
eronce for the flag, with which We
decorate on this day, in the breast
of every man and woman in America,
be he stranger Or native. The day has
been commemorated since the first
adoption of the Declaration OF Ind
pendcnce. which passed the house of
congress July 4th. 1776 but the famous
Liberty bell did not ring until July s.
1916. when the first celebration of In
dependence was held. On that day the
great document was first publicly
read.
There are many pretty legends that
entwine themselves around the day
and the passage of the Declaration OF
independence which we like to muse
over. But history tells MS that there
was no youth awaiting the passage o
the declaration to run and cry Ring
grandfather, ring the bell for tn,
session of congress had been in secret
There was rumor to the effect tha
the bill had been passed, but the pa
pers Of July made no mention of lt
passage.
1t is not unwise, however, to en-
twine such stories around the doingi
of our forefathers, on a day like this
when the nation has prospered, anC
the day is the greatest in the histor!
of any nation.
