It was the day when citizens of the United States, in whatever part of the world business or pleasure found them, turned their | thoughts and their prayers toward home and felt themselves first of oll Americans. | It was the day when one hundred million people drew together! ‘with that feeling in their hearts voiced by Daniel Webster fifty years after Bunker Hill: “Our Country, our whole Country and nothing bat our Country.” The Fourth of July, 1918, finds all the old loyalty of Americans to their Nation expressing itself with a new and supreme intensity of act and purpose. It finds, however, something more. It finds its own significance wonderfully, impressively expanded, spread over seas until the better part of the civilized world is ready to join to-morrow in thanking God for American independence and American strength. France, with a million young Americans landed on its shores, hundreds of thousands of whom are already valiantly fighting on its! ‘soil, helping to bar the enemy from its capital—France fervently | asks that it may be allowed to share with the United States this Fourth of July. In England a British King is to join American soldiers in cele- rating American Independence Day to-morrow with a full measure of that larger spirit which, now more than ever, recognizes the libera- tion of the American colonies from an un-British domination to have been the best thing that ever happened for the later defense of civi- lization. What Thackeray called “the famous Fourth of July and that Declaration which rendered reconcilement impossible” are now become landmarks of freedom to which English and Americans to-day look back thankfully together as they pledge cach other to fight on till |For the Freedom of the World!

Play the piano. He also remembers coming home with his pockets full of fried pork chops, very cold and very greasy. And !t was a porkless day by Mr. Hoover's orders too. “Well, here uh um!" he said, as he Sayings of Mrs. Solomon | By Helen Rowland [ Copyright, 1918, by The Prom Pu ing Co, (The New York ing World) “Verily, Verily, the Days of a Man’s Life Are Full of Trouble ~and Every Trouble Is a Woman!” RILY, verily, my Daughter, a man’s days are full of trouble, And every trouble is a WOMAN!
