MERICA this year celebrates Its one hundred fiftieth year of Independence. And today the world knows that the Immortal Instrument which was signed on July 4, 1776, bas meant much more than the growth and devel· opment of an Independent natlou on this side of the Atlantic. With 1925 there began a series of American sesquicentennials which continues to command the attention of the world. They mark the beginning of the United States of AmerIca. Americans are interested. For world history, as well as American history, was made at Lexington and Concord April 19, 1775; at Cambridge July 3, 1775; at Philadelphia • July 4, 1776; at VIncennes February 25, 1779; ot Yorktown October 9, 1781; at Paris September S, 1783. Born In those fateful nine years of revolution, our nation today, after 150 years of perseverance and progress, Is the most favored on earth, the most powerful, the wealthiest. So much has been taken here as a matter of course that It seems hard to realize that this anniversary Is celebrated In the very England from which liberty was wrested, and that observances of It are oiDclally ordered In many lands beyond the seas. The Fourth of July has become International In Rcope, for lt has changed the goTernments of nations whose capitals are far from IndepPndence hall. lind not the !dens of government held by the colonists been essentially British there would prob· ably never have been any Declaration of Independence. It Is as natural for the Briton to demand his rights as It Is tor hlm to live. The war of the Revolution was largelT due to th., fad that the three thousand miles of water between London and the colonies caused parliament to lOl!le sight of the ties of consanguinity and of race. Although the original thirteen colonies were so eel!entlally English In thought and feeling they had never actually been established by England as a national enterprise. The only one Which bad ever received any oiDclal ald whatever waa Georgia, and that was not suiDclent to carry any such feeling of dependence as Is essential for the preservation ot Intimate colonial relations. The right to colonize the North American continent had been granted by charters from a BrltlsJ:l king. According to the feudal system, which was then rapidly becoming eft'aced, the king owned all the land and distributed It among various favored vassals. • The sovereign In the same way regarded the New World as If It had been won by the sword. The most extravagant Ideas prevailed with regard • to the wealth of. the American lands. It was at one time soberly belleved In England that gold and sliver and precious stones could be hl).d for the taking and that the natlv~s were the possessors of fabulous wealth. The king gave the charters In most cases with the Idea that he would profit greatly from mines which would yield enormous returns to the royal exchequer. When the colonists came here they found It necessary to make good their titles either by peaceful bargains with the Indians or 'by force arms. From the very first the spirit of indewns fostered, for fiefs which had to be wu•eu by constant vigilance and negotiations and by show of force did not carry with them 8 deep sense of obllgatlon. Indeed, even at that early day, although for the throne the colonists entertained feelings of loyalty and devotion, a shrewd Idea was abroad that the king dld not really own the land which he had bestowed by his charter. The conquest of nature and the savages begot a· rugged Independence which as the years went by became more and more distasteful to the nuthorltles In England. Richard Henry Lee, of Virginia, oft'ered the Independence resolution In June, 1776, and a comMittee wns appointed to draft the Declaration, .tOnsistlng of Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, J\enjamln Franklin, Roger Sherman and Robert L1ving:;;ton. Jeft'erson wrote the document, and alterations were made principally nt the suggestion of Franklin and Adams. The paper was submitted to congress on June 28. It was laid on the table untll July 1, when nlne colonies voted ln favor of it. of Soltl br 4/1 Drug 4rul Dtf>drtm<ttl Storti Old Order Changed I WANT TO HEAR FRO~ OWNI-~R ol good farm f o r oale.

DGl(1r e GRAY/ .. Qeban=~~~ The Independence resolution was actually adopted on July 2 and promulgated to the world on July 4, when John Hancock, of Massachusetts, affixed to It hls bold signature. The other members of the congress did not sign It until August 2, and the Impressive scene connected with the signing was not witnessed until nearly a month later, although It Is popu· larly associated with the Fourth of. July. Centuries of the progress of the rights of man bear witness In the Declaration. That "all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator. with certain lnallenable rights, that among these are llfe, Uberty, and the pursuit of happiness," was not new, for It was recognized at Sinal. That governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed had been stated and restated In many ways since the beginning of the colonies. Thomas Jefferson was crltlclaed at the time for lack of originality In the Declaration. The document gained all the greater force from Its statement of self-evident truths. Never was there a more masterly presentation of a bill of. grievances than Is contained In the Declaration, which "submits the facts to a candid worltl." In 1876 the one hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence was celebrated wjth Impressive exercises both In New York and Philadelphia. In 1826 was celebrated the fiftieth anniversary. Severlll of the original signers of the immortal document were still alive, although unable on account of extreme age to take part In the exercises to which they had been bidden. New York bad a grand procession and a barbecue In the square now named after Washington, at which 10,000 persons were present. Josiah Quincy was the orator of the day In Boston, and addresses also were made by Webster and Peabody. And now In 1926 we have the Sesquicentennial exposition at Philadelphia, open from June 1 to December 1. To It will come the nations of the worlll co-operating with us In our celebration, which has been designed to demonstrate that what tl:tty years ago was merely potential is today an accomplished fact. Five main exhlbltlon bulldlngs, three of them colossal In size, house the great mass of exhibits that have originated In all parts of America and of the world. A score or more of smaller buildIngs, each of Individual character, contain displays of foreign countries and separate states of. the Union. .At the main entrance to the grounds are two pylons, 55 feet ltlgh, surmounted by colossal figures to be known as the Hernlds of the New Dawn. They are symbollc ot the story of AmerIcan freedom. The visitor enters the Grand court and finds to hilf left, the Palace of Liberal fly- Flit - Flop ! F I j nav:v. li |
