Worlds Most Famous Bell

The Beckett paper Company,
of Hamilton. Ohio, some months
ago sent olt as an advertisement
a picture of the Liberty Bell, "
and an accompanying folder Civ
ing facts concerning this old bell
which is so dear to the people of
the United States. We repro
duce herein the facts set fourth
in the advertisement, believing
the data will be of service to the
teacher. The account follows:
In Colonial days the Stae House
bell was an important part of the
machinery of government,
Each Provincial Assembly had
its official bell. which was rung
to call the members of the as
semhlv together, to announce
the hours of the opening of the
Courts OF Justice. and to cele-
brate such important state occa-
sion as the accession of a men,
Der of the ROYAL family to the
throne, or the proclamation of
treaty Of peace or declaration
of war.
1t was in accordance with this
custom that the superintendent
of the State House independence
HalD in Philadelphia, in 175l,
ordered for the Pennsylvania AS
sembly. through the agent of the
Province in London, the bell
which was destined to play a
more important and spectacular
part in human affairs than any
other ever cast.
Its prophetic inscription, ante
dating the Revolution by a quar-
ter Of a centuary. its warnings
through a generation to the gov
eminent of Great Britain, its APP
peals to the people to assemble
for the red ess Of their grievan-
ces. its defiant clangor that men,
orable day OF the Declaration of
independence. its rejoicing peal
ing over the completed work of
the Revolution, its last tolliug
over the dead of the Nation, give
its story an abiding interest to
the Nation and to the world.
The order for the Liberty Bell
required that it weigh about
two thousand pounds, and that
it be iettered with the words.
