The Fourth of Julyis Over
Written for The Evening Journal
BY JAMES T. CROZIER.

Well. the noisy shooting is over now,
II is done for another year.
II troubled my one good ear somehow.
But I'm glad that I yet can hear:
When I was a youngster I loved the
noise.
And made all OF II that could
With crackers and things like other
boys,
But am old now and have 10 be good
I came near stepping on a big one
On the pavement as 7 came home.
II sounded just like 16-inch gun
Believe me, IL shook me up some;
We honor the day for IL set us free
From the rule Of English men,
But somehow Il seemed out Of place
to me.
For now we're their allies again.
But the Fourth OF July Is ever the
same.
And when Il shall come let me say
Il will ever be honored while we have
a name
BY all who are living that day.
Let me say 10 tho youngsters TO still
make the noise
All you can Wnen the fourtn hhdll
appear
For while time shall last all boys will
be boys,
And will welcome that day when It's
here.

asleep
All the noise could not keep me
awake,
Il would have taken a bear 10 over me-

Or l think something like an earth
quake;
For when James gets asleep you may
whistle or sing
or do anything that YOU can,
Except the dog barks that's the onl,
thing
That is apt 10 awaken this man.

VOLCANIC ACTIVITY

The recent eruption of Lassen Peak, in California, calls attention to the fact that that peak is one of the very few active volcanoes in the United States.
 Lassen, however, is one of the left overs" of a large group of formerly ac- tive volcanoes that have become extinct in times which to the geologist are com paratively recent. Mount Shasta is one of these. Mount Hood, in Oregon, may be regarded as still smoldering, for it even now exhales vapor, as also does Mount Rainier Cor Tacoma).
 Mount St. Helens and Mount Baker, in the state of Washington, were in erup- tion, according to the new Encyclopaedia Britannica, as recently as 1S42 and 1S43. Few volcanic peaks are found in the Rocky mountains, but evidence of ling ering volcanic activity in that region Is seen in the geysers and hot springs of the Yellowstone National park.
 In that park there is a so-called mud volcano" which at intervals throws up mud and stones, and is usually in state of violent agitation, emitting sounds that are Su1IlclenCly IerTlIyiilS to any one WHO has the courage to venture close enough to look into the black depths of the cra- ter.
 A curious phenomenon in connection with volcanic activity is that more vol canoes are found in the arctic or sub artic possessions of the United States than elsewhere within it's limits. Alaska has many volcanoes, most of them quies- cent Contiguous to these is the Aleutian volcanic belt, which is narrow, curved chain of islands, extending from Cook s inlet westward for nearly 1900 miles.
 The United States, besides the area of Alaska volcanic activity, contains in its Hawaiian possessions, the greatest single volcano in the world-that of Mauna Loa (''Great Mountain'). This greatest of volcanoes has, like Lassen peak. been in a state of violent eruption within the past few months.
