It expresses as well as anything could the dauntless, heroic wav in which the men of Revolutionary times banded themselves together to face a common enemy. It is the one painting that everybody thinks of on Independence Day; the one picture that returns to us out of the past to express in ' . visual form the emotion that is uppermost on the Fourth of July. In this year, somehow, it starts a train of thought to whicn all of us might well devote a little time. ' If the men of '76 faced a great crisis, so do we. If they found it necessary to sink their differences and march shoulder to shoulder against the foe, so shall we. It wasn't easy for them, either those Revolutionist forefathers of ours. The country was far from united in those days. A great many people opposed the break with . England. A great many others, engrossed in the problems of a frontier land, bound up in their perennial struggles with the wilderness and the Indians, simply did not care very much one way or the other. There were sectional rivalries, too--colony against colony, creed against creed, class against ' cl&ss Somehow, in spite of the odds, the early Americans found a way to submerge those rivalries and unite those . factions. They marched together against the redcoats, and after overcoming obstacles which seemed insuperable they v won the independence which their descendants always have counted their most prized possession. Trdav we're facing much the same problem. We, too, are fighting for our independence: our independence inde-pendence from the business cycle, from industrial stagnation, stagna-tion, from poverty, from hunger, from all the tragic ills that follow in the train of a financial collapse. The fierht can be won if we set ourselves to it. But to . ; win it we shall have to unite, to march shoulder to shoulder as the men of '76 did, to sink our rivalries and forget our quarrels. , This is no time for the jealousy of class against class. It calls .-for united action. If we can learn the propeflesson from the events which Independence Day commemorates we scan have, that united action fend, going on to ultimate victory, vic-tory, can prove that the spirit of 1932 is a worthy descendant descend-ant of the spirit of 76. Sunday Thoughts By C. V. our dun , WAY RY WILLIAMS INDEPENDENCE DAY Tomorrow is our glorious July 4th, the great day of Independence, a day celebrated in commemoration commemora-tion of a great event that took place 158 years ago. According to tfte dictionary the word "independence" means "free dom or exemption from thecon j trol, authority, or power of others a state over which no oneNhas any power, control, as authority, ability or liberty to conduct." And so on this date, July 4, 1776, independence was declared o f Great Britain by congress of revolted re-volted America as colonies and signed by the representatives of the following thirteer states: New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware Maryland, North Carolina, South, Carolina, Virginia, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Georgia. On that date a resolution was passed by members of the Cctin-. ental congress, Known to every school boy and girl, and reads as follows: "Resolved: that these United Colonies Col-onies are, and o fright ought to be free and inedpendent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance alleg-iance to the British crown, and that all political connections between be-tween 'them and the state of Great Britain is, and ought to be totally absolved." Our forefathers who only lately had removed from England where old-age customs and formalities are and always was preserved and revered. rev-ered. After passing this resolution, declaring the colonies' independence, independ-ence, they thought it only right and proper, as well as just, to formally tell King George all about it.

With true aiSolIo Tcrvor Americans Ameri-cans have thrown themselves into the celebration of this glorious event. Until alas! it has sometimes been carried too far, resulting in a large number of fatalities. These however, have greatly diminished in late years, due' to the vigilance of the authorities. And it is to be hoped that every patriotic Amerir can man and woman, boy and girl will help in the establishment of a true, sane and jubilant celebration, of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Codfish, father of four small boys, who has just decided where he will celebrate j safe and sane Fourth of July. Sir.

A California aviator made a dive of 10,000 feet in 25 seconds; but that's nothing compared to the dive made by some Wall Street stocks. Horace Greeley once said he didn't believe in ghosts, but was afraid of them. That's just the way our political leaders feel about prohibition.

One of the great mysteries of life is why a lawn mower makes exactly exact-ly four times as much noise on Sunday mornings when you wnnt to sleep, as it does on week days.
