NO FIRECRACKERS In
RICHMOND THIS YEAR

Monday night the city council
passed an ordinance forbidding the
sale, purchase, or use of any fire.
works or fire crackers of any kind
for this year in Richmond, because
this year they felt that our boys
and girls can be patriotic enough
to celebrate the day in a better
way than exposing the city to SO
much danger, and spending SO
much money for red paper and
powder to be burned up.
OF course it seems queer to
think Of the Fourth Of July without
fire crackers, because that has
been the only way we ever have
celebrated the day But there are
lots Of cities which have made
Fourth of July greater event
than ever before. since they have
forbidden fire works, and now that
We have a chance to decide for
ourselves what would b. the best
way to show our patriotism, per-
haps we can make this holiday ideal.
In one of the eastern cities, sew
eral years ago, they rad a fire.
crackerless Fourth of July, but the
boys and girls were so busy get
ting ready for a huge parade that
they scarcely missed the crackers.
Almost every school and Sunday
school had some. kind OF a display,
and each tried to have netting
a little more interesting han any
one else had thought OF, and that
parade vas one of the greatest
sights the people ever bad seen.
1t started at ten O'Clock and lasted
almost two hours. Then in the af-
ternoOn, everyone who wished,
went ON a big picnic. where there
were races and all sorts Of con-
tests, with plenty of prizes given
away. And in the evening one Of
the city oficials shot OF the flre-
works where everyone ir the park
could see them, but no one would
be hurt.
Not all cities can have such par
AIDES or such celebrations on the
Fourth OF July, but enough has
been done to show that there are
other and better ways OF spending
the day than merely to have a few
flrecrackers.

JUNIOR PALLADIUM ADOPTS
FATHERLESS FRENCH GIRL

When you send in your money,
you can know that every single
penny will so straight to Odette or
her brothers with none taken out
to pay for money-orders or men to
handle the money and see that it
gets to the right person, because
the French government has taken
this matter in hand, and the French
pOstOffice at St. Chapters will see
that 1t is delivered to Odette her
self.
French Letters vii, Be Published.
1t will take at least two and may.
be three weeks for our letters to
reach France, so we won't begin to
hope for an answer for almost two
months, but when the answer
comes, Junior Folks, you can be
sure that it will appear in the very
next Junior Palladium, and I'm
sure that will be a red letter"
Junior for all of lis.
You can adopt little boy or girl
yourself, if you can afford TO pay
the $3.50, but since there are SO
few who can do that we have Of
fered TO take Odette for all the
Juniors, SO that each of you can
pay just what you wish. Several
people in Richmond have adopted
one already. Mr. Giles has allowed
his son to adopt one, and they
chose little girl named Georgette
because that is his mothers name.
Mary Lane Charles has adopted a
little girl named Lucie Lager. who
is only six year old and who lives
in the same de partement de Gard
that our Odette does. Mary Lane
is planning to write to Lucie, too.
|. And SO, Junior Folks, il you want
to have a part in helping some lit
tie French Child, who is hungry, You
can sign your name and the amount
you want 10 give on The little slip,
and then either send it or bring it
up to the Palladium office.

CAMP FIRE GIRLS
HOLD BIG MEETING

The Second Grand Council meet
ing for all the girls of Wayne
County is to be held tonight at
Earlham college. All the girls in
the ten camps are invited, and
there probably will be large meet
ing although this meeting was ar
ranged on very short notice.
The girls are to meet in Lindley
hall where they are to don their
ceremonial costumes in the Day
Dodger Girls rooms, at the south
end of the basement. Then at
7:30 they are to march over to
Clear Greek and form the large cir
Gle around the fire. At a sign
from Mrs. Whitesides, the head
guardian, the fire will be kindled,
and the fire lighting ceremony CIV
en- by three fire-makers.
After a symbolic demonstration
commorating the beginnings of
Camp Fire work in Wayne County,
the song and motions of Burn Fire
Burn win be given by three girls.
Then there will be the roll call and
informal reports by the different
camps, telling all they have done
or are planning to do, honors will
be awarded, and Dr. Gulick's mess
age to the Camp Fire Girls will be
read and discussed.
Discuss Ways Of Service.
In fact this is one of the most
important reasons for calling a
grand council at this time, for the
present crisis in our country de-
mands that the army of Camp Fire
Girls do all in their power to help
and serve the nation. And in COM
ing together at this time. the Camp
Fire Girls of Wayne County can
plan to arrange more effective ways
OF serving, as well as being more
inspired with the enthusiasm of
united groups.
There will he a song by Susie
Meek, who is native Indian from
Indian Territory, and a most en-
thusiastic Camp Fire Girl, and the
! meeting will end with everyone
singing The Star Spangied Ban
ner' and Wohelo.
The first ceremonial meeting was
held at Centerville, where the Cen
terville camp had prepared great
entertainment for the visiting
camps. This second council meet
ing will be of different charact-
! er, because it is entirely private
affair with no visitors and very lit
| tie amusement. 1t is called rather
to earnestly discuss the work and
service which the Camp Fire Girls
! of Wayne County can render their
| country in this time of need.

BIG AUDIENCE Greet CH|LDREN'S
CONCERT WITH GREAT APPLAUSE
GIRLS TAKE PART IN
GARFIELD FIELD MEET

The Garfield field meet was a
great success, in spite of very
high wind which was very trying
hindrance to the basket ball throw
ing, high jump and pole vault No
records were broken, but several
very interesting contests were held.
In the girls three-legged race, two
Of the girls were SO excited when
they found that they were ahead
that they didn't even see the line.
and so ran outside the track instead
of breaking it for first place. But
they were counted second.
. Much excitement was caused
when Miss Wickemeyep first APP
peared on the grounds, because she
wore a purple suit, and all the
whites" at once accused her of be-
ing partial to the puppies" But
after showing the rivals that the
purple suit was trimmed in white,
and that she wore white waist,
she finally convinced them of her
neutrality.
But the greatest excitement of
the afternoon was when two boys
who were practicing for their three
legged race borrowed one of the
girls beautiful new parasol SO that
their complications would be un-
marred when the time came for
them to star in the real race itself.
All went well until suddenly one
of them stumbled and fell precisely
on that beautiful parasol, breaking,
crushing and bending it into hope
less wreck.
Up leaped the. wrathful owner
then. and snatching her once cher
ished possession from under the
fallen racer, she dealt blow after
blow upon his struggling form, until
teachers had to come to the rescue
and drag her off Of the victim be-
fore he was completely annihilated.
The moral Of that is-Neither a
borrower nor a lender be.
But real account of the meet Is
told by one of the Garfield pupils
herself.
Whites Win Field Meet.
Last Saturday afternoon there
was Garfield field meet out at
the Fairgrounds. There were two
sides, the whites and the puppies.
The whites got IS points and the
puppies got 10 points.
I The Garfield girls had three
things, fifty yard dash. q three
legged race, and basket ball far
throw. Grace Chrow and Grace
Simcoke won the fifty yard dash.
Lucille Thurman and Lucille Jones
