THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

With the near approach Of the national boli.
day 1t is about time for the press TO begin
preaohnents in behalf Of a safe and sane
Fourth OF july, or, as a contemporary better
expresses II, d plea for "A day OF patriotic re
3oicing rather than day OF apprehension"
Noise is not patriotism and the hrecraeker is
a national nuisance. Fireworks displays are
ali right but they should be handled by COM
petent persons-logicaIly by the city or town
authorities where they can be seen and APP
preciated by all the people. The indiscriminate
sale of skyrockets and roman candles to chit
uren should not be permitted. for these are
dangerous in amateur hands and their desultory
use serves only TO annoy and frighten the neigh
bors and pedestrians. and is not the least in
spring or edifying.

This is a doctrine taa' sal not hold good with

THE automooile reaches fhe crossing first It Is

her OF reciprocity Of give and take.
At the principal street corners in the larger
srat:es we have traffic policemen who control the
3etream Of traffic SC as TO minimize the dangers
cf collision. and the rules enforced in the heart
acf the cities are the only safe rules TO follow
rsveryrvhere That there are certain drivers Of
motor cars who take inexcusable risks. endan,
yEering the lives Of pedestrians, Is just as true
Is that pedestrians themselves are sometimes
r.giigent IN crossing the streets. No rule can
be established that gives any part Of the public
skighway to any sci Of travellers it Is a question
-of using Judgment. ordfHf rution and keep

Righteousness in Virginia the persohhei OF 'ho
Ba.tDsrs' association can hardly be surpassed,
II Is indeed a fine body of men. and their actions
mean very much to the whole State. They have
under their direction the most delicate portion
Of Nirginia's business interests. as well as the
most important, and their actions are closely
watched by all As the resolution stated, bank
ers would not stand for the use OF intoxicants
by their employees, and we know this is true.
thrl why could they not adopt resolution
dem,t strating the consistency of such a rule :?
People doing business with your banks all over
Virginia ask you why? Your actions, in body
assembled, with prove much stronger incentive
for emulation than any rule you can adopt.
trust that after the association has time to re-
fec. certainly by another year. they will unani-
modsly adopt the resolution. which many of Us
think they greatly erred in not adopting this
year.

thirsting for similar expression. Suppose the
poll and other officers of the law in city
knew that the thousands Of men in the Bible
clauses in the city stood behind them help
enforce the law Would 1t not double their
efficiency? Suppose the law breakers, those who
stood for gain, would sell the fair name and

Would the solution of the problem be found
