THE JULY { ADDRESS AND PATRIOTISM

1-@HE OLD TIME July address was cock
 1 a-doodle-doei affair. Effete nations of the Old World were handed out some sassy stuff. They were invited to enter Uncle Sa1n's Kindergarten, and acquire few elementary principles of government
 The July address is nearly extinct today. If held the ministers, lawyers judges, few office holders. Woman's club leaders, and oth- CT serious minded persons, may attend
 They know in advance what the speaker will say and sympathize. But it's the Dutch taking Holland. They need no indictment to love for native land. Meanwhile the young folks, for whom such addresses are given, would of course like to be present. But un- fortunately the hour of the lecture would con fliot with some ball game or dance.
 From such July 4 orations as are given to- day the spread eagle note has mostly vanished. The more Uncle Sam knows, the less he thinks he knows. Our orators do not now try to in struct the Old World. Rather they are inter ested to put some bone and sinew of heroism and public spirit into the new generation of young people. They glorify the deeds of the past to elicit the courage and action needed to solve the problems of today.
 As to patriotism in case of war there has always been plenty of it and always will be- Most young men have warm attachment for and pride in their native land. They will not see it's flag in the dust. This feeling is of course helped on by the fact that it is dull bus mess working in factoe&es and stores. War means something doing, new scenes, new life. This does not detract from the value of the ser vice given by the soldier
 Patriotism is sacrifice. A man may rise impressively for the national anthem. He may reverently uncover at sight Of 'sOld Glory But if he fails to turn up at his political caucus merely because it rains, he is a pretty cheap variety of patriot.

LENGTIaENING THE EVENING

A--N LEVEIDAND AND several other Ohio cit- NJ ies have recently changed or plan ned to change their clocks from Central to Eas- tern Standard time. As every clock will be set one hour ahead, that means that there will be one hour more of daylight after supper or dinner, whichever Ohioans call their evening meal
 The little objection anticipated in Cleveland to this change is very funny illustration of human nature Precisely the same thing could have been done without interfering with the railroad schedules by public ordinance and general consent. It was simply necessary to and close one hour earlier in each case Also the meal times in the homes would have to be changed to correspond.
 Popular habits become so set that it would be almost Impossible to get such change made. The man who is used to getting up at a-s sn would never get over the idea that it is a hardship to rise with the clock saving 6 o'clock, But if his clock can be set ahead, so that he will get up an hour earlier without lreaizing it, he feels no hardship and enjoys all the benefit of the longer evening
 The change that those cities are making produces some approach to English conditions, where long evenings permit out door sports Ito be enjoyed after the evening meal. At Edin- burgh it is broad daylight until 10 D. m. dur ing the long days. Imagine what a baseball business would be done in this country, were it possible to play even to g D. m.
 It is misfortune that the American peo- pie have established living habits that make the evening dark. There is little physical de- IveIopment in theatre going. and automobile and trolley riding and carriage driving, which are the principal amusements after the lamps go lon.

POLICE TO GUARD

 4TH CELEBRATION

Police plans are already under way to provide Bridgeporters with safe and sane'' July 1, much the same pro- cedure being planned as has proved effectual for several years past. 1uieter holiday than usual is looked forward to this year on account of the drastic measures taken during the past two years when arrests and city court appearance were methods used in emphasizing the lesson of not car ryings or using firearms.
 Revolvers, shotguns and the like will be under the ban this year. Po~ licernen are also to be instructed to prevent premature discharge of fire crackers, etc, until Saturday and vio- lation will mean an attendance of a city court session.
 Bxtra police details will be on duty Friday night to prevent und4e cele- bration before the Hid" comes of. In- structions will also be given the street men to watch out for any fires 60 aa to assist the nFernen in every way

4sa4-JUNE a4-1o14


 Cwritten by invitation. and read by the author. MT. Kennedy, at the na- | tionaI celebration on Bannockburn field, June 24 1914. MT. James Ken nedy is well known in Scottish circles throughout the United States as q poet of considerable ability: in fact. many of his friends claim that he is the logi- cal Scottish laureate of the present day. His poesy is. clean and pure. his imagery sympathetic and natural. and his diction at all times spontaneous and cultured. He has a wonderful power over the old Scottish Doric but IS equally at home in scholarly Eng fish. He is connected with the Angus Sinclair Publishing Go. of New York, and edits one of their engineering magazines. He intended to be at the Bridgeport celebration in the Strat-> field on Saturday, but pGcceded to the urgent demands of the homeland committee and sailed for Scotland a1- most at the eleventh hour His place. l was taken in Bridgeport by John Japp, the well known reader Of this city. qualified satisfaction to the large gath lering.)
