CELEBRATE, BUT BE
CAREFUL

State Fro Marshal c. L. Topping is
making a strong appeal for Fire
lea, Fourth" He points out that DEATH
" Jury. and fire loss from the celeora-
ton OF the Fourth are wholly unneces-
sary. since the passage Of the peclar-
alton OF Independence" says Mr.. Top
ming. there have been more casualties
due To celebrations Of that historic
event than there were on the American
side during the war that made the
document effective. and more money has
gone up in smoke BY the fires set by
celebrators than was appropriated by
the Continental Congress to carry on
the Revolution"
These are facts which should make
us think. Americans will always want
I, celebrate tive Fourth OF July in a
red-blooded way and It is proper for
them to do so. but the kind OF care
lessness that leads to injury. death or
destruction OF property Is not an essen
tial part OF an active celebration. No
matter how much we preach and advise.
the young People OF the nation will not
sit down quietly on the Fourth and
read about the patriotic deeds OF their
foretathers. How. indeed. can that he
expected OF the descendants OF the men
who fought the Revolution? This is
still a nation OF deeds rather than words.
and may It always be so But even
the young can be careful and patriotic
AT the same time.
