Holidays, like many other American customs, have been highly commercialized, and the Fourth of July was no exception, although most commun ities make a conscientious effort to add a touch of sincerity and purpose to their celebrations. To one person, a holiday is a suggestion to get howling drunk, while another takes his observance out on a mountain stream and a fish pole. Some like to lie in bed late and yawn at a silenced alarm clock while others set the table for company or motor over to Aunt Agatha's for a free meal with out effort. A surprisingly few’ stick around home with the kids, listen to a patriotic address, visualize early days of the nation, look at Old Glory with a tinge of sentiment, shoot off a few fireworks and turn in after a quiet, but entirely uneventful day Like happiness, the true holiday spirit seldom is captured by energeitc pursuit. Noble emotions come to those who pause and are receptive; they shun their avid pursuers. Possibly the motor car and a habit of fast living have imbued people with the false notion that special occasions must be met with special effort, dash and consternation. Relaxation and poise only are inducive to appreciation, and almost any juve nile can give his elders a better accounting of why July Fourth is a holiday than they. Fireworks and speeches are our last remaining vestiges of an old fashioned Independence Day and, by golly, these are sinking into political capital and a nuisance. Or, maybe, we're just growing up and getting in a hurry too and didn't notice. We’d Walk A Mile for the Truth! It is with interest that the Miner has been fol- lowing latest series of cigaret advertisements, fea turing various athletic champions. According to the copy, practically everybody who is anybody trains with a fag in their mouths. It is appalling, indeed, this monster which has been created under the general term of advertising, Running the gamut now from inferring that some brands of whisky are actually good for us on down to the false belief that cigaret smoking doesn’t "get your wind,” the present trend in some types of ad- Lithians To Play Exhibition Game at Pass Saturday vertising newspaper, magazine, billboard and radio is demonstrating how public welfare is of sec ondary importance to profit. Of the athletes pictured In alluring advertise ments so far, the writer has known four of them well for a period of years, and up until last meeting, not one of them ever used tobacco in any form! Talk about your old days of (latent medicine swindling, why those nostrum peddlers were ama teurs compared to copy writers of the present. ------------------ >................... J X f t A is - W: After observing the fate of NRA. and the suitant chiseling which has broken out in nearly all lines of merchandising since it was declared constitutional, the Miner has seen the light, reason our laws have been ineffectual, and reason criminals continue on the rampage, is cause we haven't yet ruled murder, arson, kidnaping and thievery unconstitutional. They merely are un lawful. If some of the nation's leaders, who are thrashing around hoping that things they dislike are uncon stitutional could be induced to spend a portion of their effort attacking evils of the land, then we soon could change the word “United" to "Utopia" and not be hypocritical. But it is a sad story that those who pose as being so mindful of the country's welfare are only fool ing They are being mindful of their own profit and find the word unconstitutional a handy, effective tool. It wouldn’t surprise us if, some day. a smart cor poration lawyer didn't discover that the Declaration of Independence was unconstitutional and that we still are subjects of England! ----------------- •------------------ & I Words Alone Do Not Make News! Sometimes the newslessness of news is annoying. After scanning column after column of wire dis patches concerning the drawn-out lumber strikes, we have yet to read a first lucid paragraph touching on the underlying causes of the strife. Frequently we read of reference being made to agitators, communists and professional trouble makers, and it leaves us with a vague notion that they might be the cause of much of the friction, but reflection always suggests that perhaps diffi culties far more deep-seated than those are the real issues at stake. One has to surmise that neither labor nor em- ployers will make any concessions, and that mill operators refuse to arbitrate, but no definite word is forthcoming in dispatches of the day—or month which would clarify the mystery one whit. It seems that the only successful part of the strike is its ability to keep issues mum. We are told that news must never be colored, but for heaven's sake, won't some scribe please add enough color to anemic reports of goings on in the lumber industry to give a little real news value to the "news”? It is not enough to know simply that pickets pummeled a scab, or that sympathizers broke a factory window. Why not let us in on how they got that way? Chances are, if that were told, strikers and employers both would be placed in a fairer light before the public, for they surely can't be quarreling just to punish one another.

July the Fourth Ashland extends its welcome to the many people who through the summer will be passing through our city to the beauty spots on tne Rogue, at Crater Lake, and within our national forests. Each year more and more people find their way to the beauty spots of South ern Oregon, and each year more and more people return to enjoy them. We believe that no place in Western America offers so much to the summer tourist as does the territory of Southern Oregon, to which our city is the gate way. First National Bank OF ASHLAND ♦)
