Many OF the features OF the safe and sane
Fourth old friends familiar to us from the
Independence Days of the past For instance
there is the early morning salute Of cannon and
the exercises" embracing the reading of the
Declaration Of Independence by some local orator
and an address of the day" by some celebrity
brought to town for the occasion. Even the fire.

And speaking OF fireworks brings to mind the
fact that daylight fireworks play prominent part
in most Of these new safe and sane celebrations
Of the big summer holiday. OF course. daylight
fireworks no new invention and they have
been used to some extent on the Fourth Of July
for many years past Only they have been hailed as
one Of the vehicles Of celebration specially adapt
ed to the safe and sane scheme and the market
has been stimulated accordingly while the manu-
facturers have been encouraged by this new de-
mand to improve their offerings and give greater
variety in effects

are shot aloft from mortars just as are the bombs
which now have conspicuous place In all preten'

committeeman and in connection with an up-to
date city celebration hundreds OF these couriers
are dispatched to the clouds. To lend zest to
the flights for the youthful spectators II is some
times the custom TO append packages o. prizes"

the authorities to put a snuffer on the business

The accepted plan Of providing a safe and sane
celebration as a substitute for the old-time noisy
free.for.all joihcation is to place the matter In
the hands Of a committee Of prominent citizens.
which raises by subscription fund OF several
hundred or several thousand dollars, to defray
the expenses Of the common celebration. Just as
money is raised for a street fair. The popular
idea 10 to centralze the newfangled Fourth OF
July celebration. In some places this Is done
literally by holding all the events Of the day at
some centrally-ocated rendezvous such a a pub
lie SQUARE a fair ground a park In other
instances there are three or four. or maybe half
a Dozen "centers" Of celebration located in as
many different sections Of the city and designed
to give the residents Of each district lively
Fourth without necessitating journey far from
home.
Two main aims are constantly kept in mind by
wide.awake committeeman who plan a Fourth Of
July frolic in accordance with the safe and sane
ideals Of the twentieth century. One Of these
ambitions is to have something doing" every
minute Of the day so that no critic can say that
things are less lively in the old town than In the
days when every citizen could make his own
celebration In his own front yard The other pur-
pose is to arrange features that will enlist the
cooperation of the greatest possible number Of
children so that the little folks will not feel that
they are being cheated out Of their Fourth Of
July fun and made to merely serve as spectators
for the performances Of the grown-ups.
This latter consideration explains why II Is that
the average safe and sane Fourth includes one
or more open-air plays or spectacIes or drills in
which hundreds Of school children and even kin
dergartners take part, appropriately dressed in
red. white and blue. and carrying flags or other
suitable emblems Of the occasion. These open
air fetes are not wholly restricted to the young
or members Of the community. though. Pageantry
has been growing rapidly in popular favor in this
country Of recent years-following It's vogue In
England and elsewhere abroad-and Of course
the Fourth Of July makes an ideal occasion for
such portrayal, particularly q Il deals with
historical subject

cede that the plan took shape spontaneously and
simultaneously in several different localities
such communities as Cleveland and Washington
d. c., being among the first Of the larger cities
to put the plan in practice on a comprehensive
scale, embracing the whole Jurisdiction Of the
city involved.
The incentative for this safe and sane move
ment was found, Of course, in the appalling loss
Of life attendant upon celebrations Of the Fourth
in the oldfashioned way. Perhaps there were
just as many accidents proportionately in con.
nection with Independence Day celebrations in
the days Of our grandfathers as there were just
prior to this crusade, but then again there may
not have been, for the toy pistol makers and
arecracker manufacturers were busy in later
years devising improvements" in the noise.mak-
ing line that seemed to prove fruitful Of mishaps
when In the hands Of irresponsible youngsters.
Or even IT, as opponents Of the safe and sane
Fourth have claimed the proportion Of acct.
dents did not show an increase the growth in the
population Of the country served to roll up a
total so much more appalling in sheer force Of
figures that good many people were aroused on
the subject Then, too. the perfection Of present.
Cay methods Of newsgathering has made 1t pos
sible for the newspapers to give a complete
chronicle Of the havoc Of the old-fashioned
Fourth on the morning following the day we
celebrate, and this has served to bring home the
matter to many people who never suffered from
Fourth Of July accident in their own immediate
family and circle Of friends
When the statistics began to show, a few years
back. that the American people were expressing
their patriotism on the Fourth in a manner that
each year cost the lives Of several dozen persons
and injured. more or less seriously several thou
sand others. there was a countrywide protest
that swslled In volume. Not, Of course without
some opposition. the idea has spread and its ex.
tent may be surmised from the statement that
the recent failure Of one Of the largest fireworks
manufacturers In the country was said to be due
solely to this new order Of things, whereas other
importers and manufacturers Of irecrackers and
fireworks have loudly lamented that their bust
ness win be ruined II the thing goes on
The safe and sane Fourth" Is so new that
there are few hard and fast rules regarding It.
Indeed, q conception Of the idea, differing in
more or less degree, is encountered in every diff.
ferent city which has adopted the plan. The
basic principle is not. however, az some people
suppose. the abolition Of all noise and fireworks
on the Fourth On the contrary, the advocates
Of the safe and sane program favor waving flags
and booming guns and suffering sky rockets

our childhood. but they take the stand that these
