OUR GLORIOUS FOURTH

How many of us realize the danger we are facing of losing our Great Fourth of July to the Plussan legions? Not many, we dare say. But the fact remains that are in grave danger, which is a fact and not calamity howl.
 We have three distinct classes of Fourth Observers with us. There is the class that drowses the day away; the class that spends it in noise making and the class that looks upon the Fourth as the sacred day it is. It was this latter class that made the Fourth is keeping it and will continue to keep if we only help them. we shall keep our day of Independence as long as time lasts.
 In the celebration of this Fourth, we should realize that we are in grave danger of losing it with all it means. The distance between us and Prussia has given us a false feeling of security. The Huns are at our elbows Germany is right here with cunning spies and incendaries and cut throats propagandists. We have men of no small importance in things here Who are secretly working for Germany in the belief that she will win at last Can we realize the horror that would follow final Prussan victory. With vic tory for the Huns, it would be goodnight to the Fourth.
 Candidy, generally speaking we have been only mildly patriotic so far The average per son has really given but very little, we have suffered very little outside of little inconven- fence in the food situation. We must back up army and navy better than we have been doing. There has been too much of that "Let George do it'' We should remember that poor George can't do all there is to do. Let us help him. Let us keep the Fourth as our day of Independence. Even if we have to pay for it just the boys lover there" are doing. Let us celebrate it in sane manner, that is, in the full realization of the crisis we are facing.

For weeks the people of Ketchikan have been preparing for tomorrow's Fourth of July celebration. They have spent great deal of time, money and energy preparing amusements with which to entertain their gues,s in befit- ting manner. They have spared nothing. As a matter of fact they have gone the extreme to find ways and means to amuse the visitors
 These elaborate preparations were not made for the residents but for the visitors who might visit our city during the holidays. In doing so they have opened the gate of the city and in-

 The Progressive-M Miner feels justified in assuming that whole-hearted welcome is ex- tended by every resident to all and every visitor. This assumption is based upon the knowledge that every citizen of this country is friendly "critter" and wants to share his pleasure with whomsoever is so kindly disposed. Let the strangers forget that they are strangers and join in the celebration of the Glorious Fourth The welcome is from the heart.

WHY / AM GOING BACK TO
SCHOOL.

am going to school this fall be-
cause it is my patriotic duty. We
are at wax, war that is taking all
our youz1 men who have completed
or soon would have completed their
education. This leaves the business
at home to be done by the older and
the younger men, Therefore it is
my patriotic duty to get all the edu-
cation can before my country needs
me. When the cal comes to mel will
go gladly and, with my higher educa-
ton, will be of more military value
than if | had enlisted early. Our
President has asked school boys to
get all the education they can and
do their war work after school hours.
"A request from the President has be-
come command now, so we have to
obey.
It is my duty to civil life. If my
country does not need me for war
will be of more value in civil life as
a technical man, if complete my ed
ucation.
1t is gain either way the question
is taken. If the education is not
used to advantage in the service, it
till has another chance to express
itself proftably in the business or
professional world in peace times oft
er the war.
1t is my privilege. If some French
school children can go to school in a
cave without the modern convent
ences, sometimes wearing gas masks
to keep from being poisoned, l see no
reason why a strong, healthy boy
should stay away from school, where
there is no such danger and where all
modern conveniences are provided,
especially when such neglect would
be Gripping the country for years to
come.

The visiting nurse bids fair to rev.
olutionize some of the practices of
the rural schools. A number of
States have placed laws on their stat

SEES in rural communities. Wisconsin
has recently added seven such nurses
who go about from school to school
making health inspections and giving
advice to teachers. North Dakota
has likewise voted 80 additional
nurses in as many counties. The Sc
rious difficulty confronting these
progressive states at the present time
is how and where to obtain the
nurses, now that they are needed so
urgently by the Nations military au-
thorities. The day cannot be far dis
tant, however, when there will be
health inspection in our rural schools
as an essential part of educational
progress.
