FOUR THOUSAND IN
 PREPAREDNESS PARADE
(Continued from Page Five)

renewed self sacrifice, purity of life and patriotic devotion. Let our pre- paredness demonstration and every new appropriation for larger and more efficient army and navy equipment and every new muster of troops remind us that all the hopes of America in peace or war depends absolutely on the proper development of large families of God fearing, well educated, indus trious boys and girls and our zeal and example must never lose sight of this fact.
 When the news of this days patri- OtiC demonstration is flashed across the country and written into history, may it prove to our heroic soldiers at the front and to our great Commander in Chief at Washington that Connect Icut stands with them as one man and the Murphys and Browns and Bald wins and HOlCOmbs and Cummings and Kings, republicans and democrats. Catholics and Protestants and Jews are all united under the Star Spangled Banner in absolute fidelity to all that is right and honorable in patriotic American citizenship.
 Referring to the aim of representing two counties in the days events, May or Brown introduced Rev. Mr. Dan forth of New London always a firm friend of Norwich. The speaker said that in coming to Norwich, he was coming to a place where he was very nearly home, for home ais where ones heart is. Norwich is the rose of New England. The beauty of the rose is the ideal of our republic and the thOrns of it's stem are there that no man may grasp it with impunity These are the two essentials, the beauty of the ideal and the power to defend it.
 Elements of Our Patriotism.
 What are the clements in our pa triOtism? We think of Uncle Sam in his blue coat musing and looking over the border toward Mexico and across the Atlantic to the fighting countries of Europe; and he sees the greatprOb- lems that are to be solved. He says, in the words of common sense, that a man must either put up or shut up, and sees that somewhere between these is the course a man must steer. For without an army on the one side and navy on the other the voice of the ideal cannot carry. He knows where he can be neutral, and where he can make shells, and where he can sell them, and Uncle Sam is also ready to make a few for himself, and a few guns, and use them. Uncle Sam is alive and he intends to remain alive for some time to come.
 But there is another picture, that of Miss Columbia, robed in the Stars and Stripes, the light of the morning on her face, looking up to the very skies, seeing that the broad stripes of our banner can engirdIe the globe with an ideal that is spiritual A future shines upon her face and the immor- tality of our republic lies upon her brow
 Preparedness in Our Ideals.
 We need the power of Uncle Sam to maintain our nation, but the beau ty of Miss Columbia to preserve it's ideals. Preparedness must be in our ideals before it can make itself known in it's efforts. We must have Miss Co., iumbia side by side with Uncle Sam.

THE FIREWORKS DISPLAY
 ON LANMAN'S HILL
Shooting Stars and Sparkling Stream
 CTS Marked Close of Preparedness Demonstration.

OcintiIlating stars and streamers sparkled and big bombs burst in the skies above Lanman's Hill on Tuesday evening to mark the close of the Fourth and it's Preparedness demon stration in Norwich. The committee of which Councilman Walter F. Les ter was the head. had provided a lot of pyrotechniCs for the edification of everybody for miles who had the en- ergy to elevate their range-fnders a few degrees and take sights. Of course, there were some who preferred to finger in Franklin square and gaze idly into the street, but most people were eager to see powder burnt in an artistic way over across the river. The people crowded onto Preston Bridge with such airdity that that long
 suffering structure gave a groan-un- til Officer Edward MaIoney insisted that the crowd move along and not tempt the bridge-with the cool rip bling water of the river beneath-too much. As a matter of fact, there were no accidents. The chief reason was that a river and half mile of land separated the crowd and the firing line. One couldn't get near enough under the circumstances to get af1re or have a bomb drop in his head. And dis tance lent perspective and increased charm to the galaxies of many hued stars that burst in oil hues and in all directions when the bombs went off. The only trouble was that the ammu- milton ran short of the expectations of some of the spectators. They had just got nicely settled on the court house. steps. or on a baggage wagon

A., and that the Y. M. c. A. wanted them back and that if they wished to remain on the platform they would have to stand. The young men from the Y. M. c. A. then unseated the men and women and took the chairs back to the association building.
