"Xo-acciilcnt week" lia just been

During this week every employe
was urged to take especial pains not
to bp injured himself, nor. to be -tho
cnuhe of injury to another.
Karly in the fall there is to be a
great public movement of the 'same
kind. Hut when time is taken to think
it over, it seems a little foolish to post

"Well," he said, "it's liko this. W.

called 'stick-to-it' stuff. If you get
scared, though, and lose the stick-to-it

Many of those ideals have seemed
peculiarly American because our re

has been our guiding star has filled

Fourth of July:
A year ago Kiiglund and France cel
ebrated this date in honor of their

because the -victory is won and the
spirit of our first Independence Day
has again triumphed over justice. and
wrong.
It is a day to be marked with deep,
silent rejoicing rather than noisy cele
bration. It is 11 day. on which every
individnal who professes to bp a true
patriot should dedicate himself to the
work of perpetuating among individ

reign. of liberty and justice and good
