REASONS FOR
PATRIOTISM

Once more the glorious Fourth
rolls around, o day for US to rever-
ence and celebrate, yes celebrate in
many various ways and 60 our way
forgetting, as too many Of US do, un-
til another year brings US another
holiday, another red letter on our
calender, another day to do the same
things we did the year before, with
perhaps an added attraction Of two
each succeeding year until the funda-
mental principles, Of which this day
in 1778 was the great climax, are
almost lost or forgotten.
Let US turn back to the early days
Of our country's history and review
once more the wonderful heritage
our predecessors fought for and jeal-
ously guarded that We might enjoy
that individual liberty and local self
government CONSTANT to and con-
forming with the highest laws Of
our land, "Our Constitution" for the
good Of all.
Ipmay be truthfully said, that the
foundation Of these principles Of free
worship, free expression, free educa-
tion and free government for, by and
Of the people, was laid by the Ply
mouth Colony in 1920. While they
were fourth In point Of settlement.
they were the first to bring with
them a perfected conception Of ma.
tional liberty and clear idea Of the
supremacy Of the people, being the
first settlers to hold town meetings
for government by the people, and
the first to estblish public schools.
This last institution, founded In
1885, is the life Of our nation to.
, day, the bulwark etween freedom
and serfdom, Its trials and hardshipi
firmly established were many and
great. the early colonists. mostly Of
the aristocratic class, and thost

Golden Wedding Clebration

Friday June 20 was the 50th an
niversary Of the wedding Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Chas. T. Jobbins of Keota and
they had invited their children and
grand children and great, great
grand children to help them cele-
brate the occasion. A fine dinner
was served on that day and 40 plat teS
were laid for this family. In the
evening community reception was
held, over 100 being present to con-
gratulate this popular couple. They
were married near Rio Wisconsin by
Rev. Evan In 1873. They started
the first hotel in Keota in 1909 and
later built the large hotel building
where they conduct the business at
this time. Only one OF the six
children, Mrs Finly Of Wisconsin,
was unable to be present. The
others Clifford and Harley Jobbins
Of Boulder and George 10: bins Of
Haigler .Nebr., brought their fam
lilies and stayed, several days. The
daughters Mrs. Jerry Coldwell and
Miss Lettie Jobbins and Mr.. and
Mrs. Cowley Of Grover and Mr.. and
Mrs. Ed. Oline Of Carpenter, Wyo,
niece and nephew were also present.

I The surrounding country certainly
gave Raymer a chance to show how
well they could do In the matter of
Entertainment. The crowd came
from all directions and they were
eyidently Of a disposition to be pleas
4 ed
So much for the crowd. Every
event advertised was carried out
and, carried out on schedule time.
The parade might have been q little
late in starting, but II 1t was, the
time was soon made up.
From the ending Of the parade,
things all went with snap, and just
( as planned. This is the day after
and, our time will not permit de-
tailed account Of events, except to
hit the high spots and those very
lightly.
The races made q lot Of amusement
for old and young, and only one de-
cison was questioned that we heard.
We do not know who benefited by
the claimed error In judgment or
who benefited by 1t. One man made
a little noise, but the crowd was too
good natured to more than laugh
at him.
The big crowd was at the ball game
in the afternoon. Some players
were pretty tired, and teams were
Obliged to use substithtes., There
were some poor plays, but the teams
were very evenly matched. Willard
had the game won at the start, and
then later lost it, only to regain the
lead near the close and hold 1t, win
ming the large end Of the purse.
Neither team was safe at any time
In the game so interest was main
tained until the last play was made
in the last Of the ninth.
The score of . to 10 indicates that
for q Fourth Of July game It was q
very good game.
The races following the ball game
were good. The horse race was
close enough to hold the interest un-
Ill the two leadera crossed the wire.
The pony race was equally inter-
esting, the entrants being mack and
neck from start to finish.
A rad wind and dust storm made
things disagreeable about six o'clock
in the evening, but this passed quite
quickly.
Two wash boilers Of coffee and
80 gallons Of lemonade were given
away during the noon hour.
There were no fights, there were
no drunks, only one occasion could

The Wise Beginner.

) When first bought myself boat
I was cautious gent; l took It off
to roads remote, where people sell
dom went. stunned the streets
where speeding dudes were carving
swift careers; amid the empty so1i-
tudes learned to shift the gears.
Afar from towns where peelers peel,
and coppers cop the jake, / learned
to twist the steering wheel, and
yank the changing brake. My
maiden aunts, who rode behind,
would sometimes weep and say,
For blitzen's sake, can you not find
some travelled road today? Why do
you hunt secluded lanes and through
lone pastures go? Drive through
the town where other wains are
weaving to and fro" "Shut up," I
said, in accents meek. while hitting
seven knots; day after day, week
after week, I'll seek the lonesome
spots. Until l have the proper skill
to safely drive this dray, I'll stick
to the sequestered hill, no odds wl1at
spinsters say. Till then I will not
tool this van around a city block.
and if you do not like my plan you'll
please get out and walk. Ten thou
sand men are in their tombs because
new drivers try to scorch around
where traffic booms so thick it jars
the eye. Ten thousand men have
necks in splints, and have their legs
in sings, because new drivers scorn
the hints that common caution
brings"

126- Pound Boxer Win Swing
Around Eastern Army
Camps.
By GERTRUDE GOGGINS.

Goldie Ahearn, 12S-pound boxer
has left for Langley Field with his
manager to take on Speedy Law
renee, of Fort Monroe, and frankie
Mcfarland, of Boston. on different
nights. From there he will go to
Camp Eustis, and continue the tour
of army posts around Philadelphia.
Ahearn said he didn't expect to
find anything particularly soft in
his travels, but desires tough fights
in order to get into first class shape
for the late summer and fall.
IT guess my fault heretofore has
been that I didn't take boxing seri,
ously enough" said Goldie, "but the
boxing fans will have no reason to
think that of me from now on.
There is some real money to be
cleaned up in the game these days,
and I'm out to meet the best of
them and get some of it,"

Nineteenth Hole Will
Be Converted Into
Complete Links

A miracle is to be performed
at Bloomington, Ill, when a
nineteenth hole will be converted
into an eighteen hole golf
course. The Meyer Brewery,
built in 1853 by Anthony Meyer,
has been unable to prosper under
the reduced percentage of al
cohol. The brewery, therefore,
will be disrnantled and a mu-
nicipal course constructed on
the property. Once more the
sword will be turned into a
plowshare.
