rrvirlnn mn. i- it I
Now that congress has adjourned maybe the country
can settle down to a peaceful summer before the campaign
gets under way. ,
. If people will drive carefully and celebrate sanely eo
that there are no stories of death and tragedy for Tues
day's paper, the 150th anniversary of our independence will
be a gratifying success.
The administration refused to do anything for agricul
tural relief. , It cannot be badly peered, therefore, if Die
agricultural west refuses to do very much for the adminis
tration in the fall elections.

during: this very active year, yet it 'is The Observer's sin-
i ; A HUNDRED FIFTY TEARS A(.0.
The 4th of July this year should be the cause for par
ticular patriotic observance because of its anniversaiy as
pects., And since the old-time celebration with oratorical
emphasis on the greatness of our nation has slipped largely
into the discard to be replaced by vacation activities, our
observance must be chiefly mental.
If it were possible lor everyone to hear one of those old
4th of July orations, it is likely that the one thing that
would remain in mind would be a strong emphasis on the
greatness of our constitution and on its everlasting per
fection as a governmental document That is, too often,
the crux of patriotic speeches and discussion.
It is true that the constitution which grew diirctly
