Very nearly as old as the Fourth of July itself
In holiday sense is the custom in the average
smaller city, town or village of making the aft
ernoon Of Independence Day the occasion of
race meet and athletic carnival Perhaps this is
held on the main street of the town if there is
no track available, but If there Is fair ground
or regular race track in the vicinity that is the
mecca for the crowds. Some years ago the prime
feature of every such meet was found in the
racing hoselaying and ladder contests Of the
various volunteer fire companies from all the
towns In the vicinity of the where the

YANKEE ADMIRAL IN LONDON

When Americas first dreadnought,
the Delaware, steamed out of the har.
Dor at New York on her way to Eng
land, she had on board Rear Admiral
Charles e. Vreeland, who was duly
accredited as naval representative OF
the United States at the coronation OF
King George v. He acted as naval
aid to John Hays Hammond, special
ambassador of this country in attend
ance at that notable event.
Admiral Vreeland has been in the
naval service since 1856 and is one oil
the most popular men in the depart
ment. Choice fell on him because Of
his good record and the fact that he
has been in the fullest confidence Of
the navy department for years. Ad'
miral Dewey was first selected for the
duty. He is now seventy years old

ing more exciting than their tourna-
ments when they are holly contested.
In some sections of the country
horse racing has taken the place OF
the firemen's tournaments as
Fourth Of July attraction, but of late
their drawing power has been sur
passed by such novelties as automo-
bile races, motorcycle races and best
of all, aeroplane contests. There are
yet retained on many Fourth Of July
programs those homely contests that
have been greeted with roars OF
laughter ever since the days of our
grandfathers-such tests Of skill as
the climbing Of the creased pole, egg
races, sack races, three-legged races,
catching the creased pig, potato
races and a host Of others in which
members of both sexes participate.
In the south from time out of mind
they have had fitting contests" in
which local horsemen as twentieth
century knights without armor have
Wed with one another in stunts with
lances or spears somewhat similar to
those performed by the knights Of
old. Within the past year or two
other sections of the country have
adopted these fitting Journeys as a
Fourth of July feature. and with ex-
ce1lent success.
In some communities Fourth Of
July sports committees have, in their
quest for novelties, borrowed some OF
the features of the modern circus, no

drew out coin and passed it to the walt
