THE BONNEVILLE DAM CHRONICLE tionable and will be supported by all of u« who call this nation home. People around here pledge again their support of “life, liber ty, and the pursuit of happiness.” This gov ernment of free peoole has grown in wealth and power since the signing of our indepen dence and will continue to do so. It was John Adams who said, “W e shall make this a glorious, an immortal day. W hen we are in our graves, our children will honor it. They will celebrate it with thanksgiving, with fes tivity, with bonfires and illuminations. On its annual return they will shed tears, copious gushing tears; not of subjection and slavery, not of agony and distress, but of exultation, of gratitude and of joy."

Sometimes we fail to consider the significance of the day * in our more natural desire to consider how and where to spend it. As isolated as some folks may be in regard to habitation they can not be unaware of the strife and distress in the majority of nations due to fights for liberty and civil rights. M any of our own people at one time called these nations their home. W e live in the shadow of a tri-colored flag beset with stars and realize the meaning of democracy. W e have the privilege of developing our intelligence and our business. W e pray to keep our homes, our churches and schools, public welfare institutions and our God-given right—the ballot-box, all of these going to make up our measure of freedom. The Fourth of July, the birthday of the great est nation in the world! History shows us that there is a constant struggle on the part of millions of men and women merely for the right to earn a decent living. Of course we have national problems and there are dis- crepcncies in government we may criticise, but that always holds true in matters of state. There are certain rights we maintain through Declaration of Independence that are unques- < > » t » i ? • The r Finest Recreational Resort C en ter o f Lake B onnerillc I ■ _ Ä - THE FISH HOG Now that their brothers have retired to fall and winter quarters, the fish hog is left on the scene by the absence of the road-hog, and no power on earth can rid the human race of him. W hen the fish hog, who slaughters just to see how many he can catch, or refuses to throw back those of illegal size, will retire from the scene, on one can tell. Fishing is probably the most popular of all our outdoor sports, and is entitled to greater protection than it ever had. As the conservation forces must now operate they will continue to be imposed upon. About the chief hope right now, we are told, is that a few sparks of sporting decency find their w ay to the hearts of the fish hogs and that they return to the days of good old honest sport, and fish clean. And even that seems too much to hope for. W e read of W illis Mahoney, Democratic senatorial nominee, meeting this one and that one in W ashington. Can it be that he over looked the lad in the Democratic National Committee who holds the campaign purse strings?—Oregon Journal. Love is said to make the world go ’round— but for that matter, so does a bum grade of liquor. Since you have to look close nowadays to tell whether a girl is wearing stockings or not, what difference does it make if she’s not? Home is still a boy’s idea of the best filling station, and he patronizes it three times a day. W hen you are fishing for compliments it is alw ays best to bait your hook with com pliments. More than one man around this town has earned a reputation for wisdom just by keep ing quiet and saying nothing. - ■ Celebrate the 4 th at Plenty of Parking Ground under Cottonwood Trees ♦ ¡1 ;!
