This Fourth of July Celebration
Will Be Unique in Salt
Lake.
NOISY AND DANGEROUS
EXPLOSIVES ARE BARRED
Mountain Glens, Canyons and
Resorts Will Draw Throngs
From City.
No sizz, boom. bang!

No sizz, boom. haugl
No ear-spltting, nerve-racking de
donations of dynamitc-loaded giant
crackers at your heels or in your front
yards,
No street cars dcrailcd by high power
explosives, no morning slumbers dis
turbed by home made bombs of your
next door neghbor. Just safe and
sane Fourth of July.
This is what next Tuesday promises
to be in Salt Lake City
More than Il year ago there was II
city ordinance in effect prohibiting the
use of all dangerous fireworks and high
power explosives in celebrating 1nde-
pendence day, but because many of the
dealers IN pyrotechnics had already laid
in their stocks, IN violation was dis
regarded. This year, however, every
merchant has been forewarned, and so
far as the ''noise makers which have
heretofore delighted the heart of the
small boy and the more reckless of ma.
ture years are concerned, there VIII be
nothing doing
Will Enforce New Law
The police department has announced
law to the letter and the merchants
have demonstrated their intent to co
operate by failing to lay in the stock
of explosives usually carried for this
period of the year. Roman candles,
fire balloons and set pieces for pyro-
technIc displays are not prohibited, but
the variety of celebrating material that
has previously made the day and night
almost unbearabe to those who sought
rest, peace and quiet will be conspic-
uous only by its absence.
Yet this does not mean that Salt
Lake City will not properly and pa
triotically celebrate the anniversary OF
the nations birth. There will be fewer
calls for the ambulances of the va
rious hospitals and less work for the
tired doctors and surgeons, but there
will also be less worry for anxious
mothers and more rest for the wearly
toilers who desire to take advantage
of generally recognized holiday.
There will be no noise-intoxicated
throngs parading the streets, intent up
on adding to the tumult, as has been
the custom in former years. but there
will be more opportunity for each one
to observe the occasion In such man
ner as to himself seems fitting without
disturbing his neighbor.
Big Day for Resorts
While thousands of Salt Lakers will
turn Go the mountains and the nearby,
easily accessible canyons to spend the
day TO suit their mood and convenience
the resorts will receive the major por-
tion of attention and the management
of each place has prepared a special
Of attractions, well calcu-
lated to furnish desirable recreation
for all.
At the spacious and delightful Wan
damere an elaborate programme of
sports. contests for prizes music and
dancing has been arranged, At the
Salt Palace saucer track the races will
be better than ever before, more high
class riders being entered and bigger
purses being offered. At beautiful La
goon there will be afforded ample op-
portunity for 10000 to enjoy them
selves. and at Saltair there will be
special music In addition to the bathing
and other attractions that render this
resort ever popular.
1t is freely predicted that those who
measure patriotism. not by noise, but
by deeds and high civic ideals, will
welcome Salt Lake first safe and sane
