Americas Marvels
NATURAL AND OTHERWISE
BY T. T. Maxey
THE CRADLE OF LIBERTY

Independence hall, oft referred to as
'The Cradle of Liberty" in historic
Chestnut street, Philadelphia, where
"Uncle SAM was born more than 146
years ago, stands and looks very much
as it did when, on July 4, 1776, the
liberty bell rang out to the world from
its place in the tower the news that
the colonies in America had agreed to
withdraw from the rule of England.
The plans for this venerable brick
building, which is 100 feet long and a
feet wide, were laid in 1929. Except
for the wings and the tower, the struc-
ture was completed a few years later
as a home for the Continental con-
gress.
Possessed of a simple dignity and a
quiet charm, Independence hall is a
substantial and imposing relic of Colo
NAL architecture-perhaps the most
historic of all American buildings. To
and through it come and go annually
hundreds of thousands of citizens, rep
r~esenting every state in the Union
and many lands beyond the seas.
This building has been the center
of many a stirring and history-making
scene. In 1t met that Continental con
gress which debated, then shaped,
subsequently adopted, and finally
signed. the Declaration of Independ-
ence. From its steps this precious doc
ument was read to the people. In 1t
George Washington was commissioned
commander in chief of the Continental
armies. 1t was here that the first
American flag was raised On his birth
day in 1861. 1t was to this building
that his body was carried to lie In
state, and here 1t was that congress
convened, following the close of the
Revolutionary war during the summer
of 1887, to agree to sign a constitution
for the newly-created United States.

authorized representatives of the 13
colonies advanced in a tense at
mosphere and affixed their signatures
In ratification of the Declaration of
Independence is indeed digniied. The
walls of the building are graced with
portraits of the signers and a painting
of that dramatic moment when the
was in progress.
Liberty bell, the most famous of all
bells in America, was removed from
the tower many, many years ago, and
now reposes within a glass cabinet on

SURPRISED ON THEIR
GOLDEN WEDDING DAY

On May 28th Mr.. and Mrs. John
Bucholz of the Vida vicinity reached
that rather uncommon station in life,
the 50th anniversary of their wedding
and on that day about rs of their
neighbors plotted together to give
them a pleasant surprise.
This took the form of a neighbor-
hood picnic which was held at the
North View school. On some plaus-
able pretext the old couple were
brought to the place where their
neighbors were assembled and were
not only surprised but genuinely de-
lighted.
A swell picnic dinner was spread
and thoroughly enjoyed and other
ways found for filling the day with
pleasure for all present. AS appro-
pirate tokens of the occasion Mr.. and
Mrs. Bucholz were each presented
with a five dollar gold piece and were
greatly pleased by the kind thought
fitness of their neighbors,
Not much concerning the story Of
their lives could be gathered by The
Herald. Mr.. Bucholz is said to be
about SO years old but still carries
his farm work with remarkable
activity. Mrs. Bucholz is consider
ably her husbands junior. They
have reared something like half a
dozen children but none r living
at home although one son lives near
by.
The Herald joins their neighbors
in congratulations and sincere wishes
for many more enjoyable years of
life.
