ECTORS ELECTED
T uesday evening.
Munday, July 4th, is Independence Day. What does it mean to us?
To the boys and girls, it is probably represented by a big firecracker—
and the bigger the b e tte r!—not to mention such other indispensables
as ice cream, cake, mech anical rides, etc.
To the sportsman this Fourth of July gives 2 more days in which to
hunt and fish.
The motorist recognizes the day as the time when he has to have that
new license for his car.
To the dreamer and Idealist it marks the time as one year nearer to the
goal of his dream—the whole world united under one political govern­
ment.
To most of us, it is a day to loaf, to go on pic nics, or to do the thou­
sand and one things we never find time to do on other days.
A long ways oil from the signing of the Declaration of Independence?
It’s really not so far. The day still stands for freedom—the freedom to
follow one’s own inclinations.
The Review wishes you a very Happy Fourth!
