in support OF the growing custom of
having centralized fireworks displays
under competent auspices in place of
the horrible bedlam of individual cele-
brations.
If you are alarmed by the thought
that one of your children may be on
the casualty list this year. you might
like to do something constructive
about it. If so, write to the National
Fire Protection Association, Boston,
Mass, for a dozen copies of their
model fireworks ordinance, and take
them, first, to your local fire chief.
From the drop of the hat you'll have
him and every man in the department
behind you, not only in the agitation
but, what is more vital, in the rigorous
enforcement of any law which may
result.
Between you, then, send copies of
the ordinance to your local news
papers, your local clergymen, to the
service clubs and women's organiza-
tions. With editorial support and
articulate backing you can check this
July madness in your city.
This idea may not appeal to you as
a free American anxious to celebrate
the anniversary of our freedom in the
manner adapted from the Chinese. If
so, then let me make another sug,
gestion. Drop a line to the National
Society for Prevention of Blindness,
50 West 5Oth Street. New York City,
and ask for some of their literature on
this subject - with pictures
When it comes, read it aloud at the
dinner table where your wife and your.
children can all enjoy the full benefits
of the experiences of some of the others
who once shared your point of view.
And even if you read only tolerably
veil. venture to say that your chill
dren will have sense enough 20 waive
their rights - even if you haven't.

to have expert assurance that chemical
tank or disintegrating system or what
ever has been installed, is going to do
what is promised for it. Limited cleo
trio capacity would not be too disturb
ing, since oil is perfectly satisfactory
for water heating as well as cooking.
In fact, cook stove that could be
unbolted and cooked on out of doors,
might have decided advantage.
This, however, has not very much
to do with telling trailer tourists how
to keep from being unpopular. 1t is
obvious, | think, that rules which
exact consideration for the rights and
feelings of others will have to be
rigidly enforced. AT best, other motor
lists would like to cut down the number
of ordinary cars on the roads, rather
than add fleets of truck sized append
ages. Trailer-timid drivers having to
come up behind and pass them, never
feel quite sure that the drivers of the
pulling cars are fully aware of what is
going on at the rear of the intervening
obstacle.
But of even more importance than,
the annoyance occasloned by their
obstruction to fast driving traffic, is
the menace to public health caused by
the problem of sanitation. What is
needed more than anything else are
chains of municipal sanitation stations
where garbage can be disposed of,
water tanks filled, and septic tanks
flushed into sewer outlets. Out in the
far country or desert, the law should
require that garbage be buried at
least a foot underground.
In every sense tidiness is the first
rule that trailer tourists must observe,
unless they wish to spur indignant
citizens of communities to pass laws
which will exclude movable dwellings
and house furnished motor vehicles
from most, if not all, our forty-eight
states.

Law Amended To Permit
Liquor Places To Operate
At All Hours On Sunday
Observance OF Jewish
Holiday Begins Monday

day evening, September 5. Rosh
Hashanah literally means "the be-
ginning of the year" and marks the
start of the season known in
Jewish tradition as the Ten Days
of Penitence.
Doring this season, Jews are
reminded that all mankind passes
in Judgment before its Creator,
and are called upon to judga
themselves repent, and go forth
with new resolve for righteous ac-
ton in the year which faces them.
The ten days of penitance find
their climax in Yom Kippur, the
Day of Atonement and the sea-
son as a whole is the most import
ant in the Jewish religious calen-
dar.
The traditional greeting for this
holyday is "May you be inscribed
for a good year" This form of
address goes back to poetic
thought of the deity as writing in
a huge ledger the various fortunes
assigned to each of His children.
Jewish legend declares that the
world was created on the first day
Of Tishri. Thus Rosh Hashanah
is referred to in the Orthodox
prayer book as "the birthday of
the world" The days back
ground is therefore one. of uni
versalism and not of particular
ism.
