INDEPENDENCE DAY.

When freedom from her mountain

"unfhrled her standard TO the air,
She tore the azure robe of night
And set the stars of glory there
Now possibly you know what that
means. but we don't We strongly
suspect, however. that 1t means equal
ly as much as a LOT OF the high-falutin
eoquence that divers and sundry "sil
Yer tongue" orators will uncork on the
Glorious Day.
In the midst Of perspiring orators
and all the accompaniment of varied
noises, we wonder how many OF us
win really remember what it is all
shout. 1t would be interesting to
know exactly what per cent of patriot
ism enters into our celebration OF the
day
II was indeed a momentous event in
the history OF the world that occurred
in old Independence Hall on Philadel-
phia on July A. 1776. 1t was the birth
OF a new nation and one that was des-
tined TO prove a mighty factor in the
evolution of freedom and just govern.
ment II was the beginning of ma
tion whose history is replete with glor
ions achievements. Every American
is heir to that which should make him
proud Of his citizenship and should
make him loyal and earnest defend
er OF his country.
II is well enough to celebrate the
nations birthday in the customary
way, provided we remember the sig
nificance OF the event. but better
way still is found IN attending TO the
duties that devolve upon us by reason
Of being citizens Of this great country
Of ours Even more important than
being prouo OF the past is the duty Of
living right in the present and endeav-
oring 10 do our part in making the
future OF the nation still more glor-
ions with accomplishment for free
dom and humanity
our forefathers did great work
hut they did 1ot complete the task Of
making government that would be
thoroughly responsive to and subserv-
lent Of the common good Injustice
and inequalities remain to be wiped
out and the call comes to every citl-
zen for patriotic and intelligent action
every day In pushing forward the
cause OF good government and aiding
IN establishing the righteousness that
exalteth nation"
