Some remarkable facts regarding

That swallows. lapwings and other

something concerning their methods.
With this object in view, rings were

birds. In one case, that of a widgeon

landshire, in 1909, the bird was caught
in duck decoy i'm Holland. i'm the fol-

. WHAT THE FOURTH
. OF JULY MEANS.


A group Of grave worried men gath
cred in a han at Philadelphia 1876 years
ago July 4 They were grave because
they We're called upon 10 decide the
whole future destiny OF a nation. They
we're worried because the penalty for
such work as they had in hand was
death.
They were the council called together
from all over the country 10 decide
whether America was 20 remain a
ldowntrodden. unjustly prosecuted Brit
ish province or should become free
independent nation. on their decision
hung our country's fate
During the years since Americas
first discovery England had little by
little won from France and other pow
ers the lions share Of control Of the
continent. The thirteen English colo
MES scattered along the Atlantic coast
had grown strong and prosperous t.
these colonists rather than 10 the mo-
Their country itself was due England's
supremacy on the western hemisphere.
for they had fought her battles. ex-
plored and cultivated her wilderness
and swelled her revenues.
In return as years passed on Eng
land had done less and less for her
American colonists. She had reduced
TO the rank OF subsidiary provinces the
land their lifeblood and life work had
conquered. She had sent incompetent
governors to rule them. She had tried
to crush them with unjust taxes. She
lalIowed them no voice IN rheIr own
government
Men whose heroism had carved q
home and an embryo nation out Of a
savage. hostile forest land were not
the sort 10 submit forever 10 such ig-
lnominy. For a long time they sought
10 appeal 10 England's justice When
these appeals were vain they tried 10
bring the mother country 90 her senses
/ by armed resistance.
At last, however, nothing remained
but the choice between slavery and
absolute Independence. Delegates from
each OF the thirteen colonies met in
Philadelphia in the early summer Of
l77G TO make that choice.
And without one dissenting vote they
declared for liberty.
Thomas jefferson. a young lawyer
and farmer, drew up paper embody-
ing the colonies defiance Of oppression
and their intention TO form a nation
for themselves, independent Of every
foreign power
This paper was called the Declara-
ton Of Independence. It was adopted
on July 4. 1876.
That was the birthday Of the United
States OF America, In memory Of that
first Fourth Of mly-the day when we
ceased to be subordinate colonies and
became free nation-we have ever
since celebrated the anniversary.
When one remembers all the date
really means and an that it commemo-
rates there should surely be az much
room in every American heart for graf
itude and patriotism as for mere racket
and fun.-Albert Payson Terhune in
