IT isn't too early to sound a
warning about too free use
of fireworks in celebrating
Independence day. City or
dinances forbid sale of fire
crackers within city limits.
They are easily obtainable,
however, outside local bound
aries. In view of the national
defense program, it appears
more than reasonable and
logical to avoid petty dis
charge of fireworks and in
discriminate using up of
powder. More to the point,
however, are the ineXcusable
tragedies inflicted on little
children.
The National Fire Protec-

that last July 4th, l3 deaths,
1T eye injuries and well over
5000 other serious injuries
occurred from fireworks. The
year before deaths totaled Is
and injuries 5000. From
1900 to 1880, 1920 Americans
lost their lives and $4,000
were injured by fireworks.
This is more than the list of

brating our independence than
