The Glorious Fourth
By THEODORE H. BOICE
The starry flag waves greeting
To Freedom's natal day.
It Hpples out with glory
Wherever breezes play;
It floats in stately beauty
Mid arctic ice and snow.
Through all the zones it flutters
And gems the tropic glow
The eagle screams in triumph
Its welcome to the day
And spreads its wings exultant
Where liberty holds sway.
From ocean unto ocean
And far beyond the seas
Its notes of shrill defiance
Are borne by every breeza.
The orators are telling
Hie glories of the land
That at the front of nations
Now boldly makes its stand,
And eloquent are tributes
They to their country pay
And rousing are the plaudits
On Freedom's natal day
From early dawn till midnight
There's constant jubilee
Through all the broad dominions
That spread from sea to sea,
For 'tis on this occasion
All patriots are gay
And join in celcbraliuu
Of Freedom's natal day
FOURTH OF JULY ADVICE
BY WASHINGTON.
[In his address to the governors of
the states, June 8, 17S3.]
There are four things which I
humbly conceive are essential to
the well being—I may even ven
ture to say to the existence—of
the United States as an inde
pendent powers
First, an Indissoluble union
of the states under one federal
head.
8eoondly, a sacred regard to
pubtlo Justice.
Thirdly, the adoption of a
proper peaoe establishment, and,
Fourthly, the prevalence of
that paclflo and friendly disposi
tion among the people of the
United States whloh will Induce
them to forget their local preju
dice* and policies, to make those
mutual concessions which are
requisite to the general prosper
ity and In some Instanoes to
eaorifloe their Individual advan
tage* to the Interest of the com
munity.
MAKING ROMAN CANDLES.
Many Ingredients Enter Into Compoti
tion of Popular Firework*.
vTho process by which the roman
candles are turned out may give a gen
eral Idea of the construction of pyro
technics. The tubes of roman candles
are merely layers of paper rolled in
shape by hand, each layer being glued
to the others. They are made in all
lengths and sizes, from the tiny one
that splutters out but two stars to the
one which holds thirty stars in its yard
long length. When the tubes have
been finished one end Is plugged with
clay, and then the process of loading
begins. A bit of slow burning powder
Is first placed in the tube, then a star,
then more powder, etc., until the tube
has been charged with the required
number of stars. A bit of the same
•low Darning powuer is spnnsieu on
the last star; a fuse Is then Inserted
and the end sealed. The loading Is not
done by hand—that process Is too slow.
Twenty-four empty tubes are stood
upright In a vertical frame, and Into
them the powder and stars are alter
nately placed by an Ingenious mecha
nism. Then twenty-four steel rammers
firmly press the charges In place.
Bombshells are made of papier macha
The spheres are molded In halves and
are then Joined by glue. After the
glue has set the globes are wound with
stout twine.
Plnwheels, like other playthings,
must needs look pretty In order to sell
well, and the bright colors and fancy
patterns are put upon them by the deft
fingers of women.
OLD GLORY.
THE star spangled banner!
Was ever flag so beautiful?
Did ever flag so fill the souls of
men? The love a* woman, the
sense of duty, tho thirst for
glory, the heart throbbing that
impels the humblest American
to stand by his colors, fearless in
the defense of his native soil and
holding it sweet to die for it;
the yearning whioh draws him
to it when exiled from it, its free
institutions and its blessed
memories, all are embodied and
symbolized by the broad stripes
and bright stars of the nation's
emblem, all live again in the lines
and tones of Key's anthem. Two
or three began the song; mil
lions join the chorus. — Henry
Watterson, 1898.
The Fathers of Our Country.
This day every mail and woman In
our country should stop long enough to
call up from the past the thought and
purpose of our fathers In putting to
gether the structure of a new nation.
We should close our eyes and dwell de
voutly upon the puro patriotism which
burned In their bosoms like a steady
fire in the darkness.
Wo should put ourselves in their
places, think their thoughts, Indulge
their hopes, experience their fears, suf
fer their hardships and endeavor to see
with their anxious eyes the way up
which liberty and law, Justice and or
der shall go sido by side with equal
vigor and even step, blessing with their
freedom and fraternity and ennobling
with their dignity and discipline tho
ambitions and labors of mankind.—
Martin W. Littleton.
An American Patriot's Work.
A striking Illustration of the chances
of war is found in the fact that the
American army nt Cambridge during
the war of the Revolution would have
been left without ammunition but for
the provision of John Brown, a mer
chant of Providence, R. I., and one of
the family who ptve name to the uni
versity nt the pi. ce. Brown was a
very wealthy merchant and was the
first of the Rhode Island merchants to
send his ships to China and the East
Indies. Anticipating tho war, he in
structed his captains on the return voy
age to load their ships with powder,
which he furnished to the army when
its supply had been restricted to less
than four rounds to each man.
Wrote Only Old Glory's Song.
Francis Scott Key. author of "The
Star Spangled Banner," wrote only one
famous poem, but its fame is such as
to insure his lasting place in the re
membrance of the patriotic American
people. lie was born In 1780 and died
in 1643.
Independence Day
By JOHN PIERPONT
Day of glory, welcome day,
Freedom's banners greet thy ray.
See how cheerfully they play
With thy morning breeze
On the rocks where pilgrims kneel'd,
On the heights where squadron*
wheel'ii.
When a tyrant's thunder peal'd
O'er the trembling seas.
God of peace, whose spirit fills
All the echoes of our hills,
All the murmurs of our rills,
Now the storm is o'er.
Oh, let freemen be our sons,
And let future Washington*
Rise to lead their valiant ones
Till there's war no more.
By the patriot's hallowed rest,
By the warrior's gory breast
Never let our graves be press'd
By a despot's throne
By the pilgrims' toils and cares,
By their battles and their prayer*
By their ashes let our heirs
Bow to thee alonel
Sweet Pea.
The sweet pea dates back to 1099,
when the plant was first cultivated by
n priest In Sicily.

J AM filled with exultation
On the birthday of the nation
When I hear again the ever stirring
story
Of the colonists so loyal,
Who renounced a ruler royal
And above a land of freedom raised
Old Glory
When the band in lively manner
Plays the old "Star Spangled Ban
ner"
And the flags on every hand are
gayly waving
I am thrilled by patriotic
Sentiments almost exotic,
And it might be said my joy ap
proaches raving.
VET I fear you'll call it treason
If you do not like my reason.
Such things don't command so much
of my devotion
As a certain very pretty,
Very charming, very witty
Girl, who throws my heart into a
great commotion.
She's a patriotic maiden.
See, her arms with flags are la
den,
And she surely sets my fancy in a
whirl.
Freedom—ah! We fight to win it
But I'd give mine any minute
To my most alluring Fourth of July
girl
