to uphold those lofty ideals, and
to defend those basic principles
of unity and fraternity, of polit-

from arbitrary rule and despotisu

country which they loved, and fo
which-they fought might as a na-

The Fourth of July is rated h
great day in the nation’s history,
not because the declaration of In-
dependence was first read to th^
Continental congress on that day,
but because it was adopted on tlva
day. It is true that a resolution
declaring the colonies to be free
and independent states was adop-
ted July 2, the declaration writ-
ten by Jefferson and afterwards
amended by the congress, was no
adopted until July 4. It was sign
ed the same day by John Han-
cock, president of tire congress,
and Charles Thomson, the secre-
tary. August 2 it was signed by
all the members of congress pres-
ent—50 members. Six names were
afterward attached. Col. McKea
did not sign it until 1781. Thus
the mere fsfet of signing the dec-
laration is of small importance.

Extending thy expansive form
aermai a continent’s wide fields
One wing deep driping in Atlan-
tic’s brine, the other o’er Pac-
ific’s bosom spread;
Low trailing thy tail-feathers in .
the frozen ocean of the north— 1
And heaving thy pulsating breast
pbove the torrid waters of fair
Mexico's broad gulf;
Within thy t.iloim hearing, for
the friend, the olive branch of
peace—
And weapons of destruction for
the foe that would assail the
smallest of her progeny!
Well Hold thou thy hattfhty
head aloft within the starry
aky-
For though hut young, thou art u
giant grown to conscious might
acknowledging few peers.
.May thou forever tranquil dwell
in harmony with all thine own,
And unmolested by the powers of
the earth—respected by the
strong and honored by tlm

And may'at thou never know de-
feat nor learn to bow thy head
in shame.
