Independence Day
July Fourth, the anniversary of the historic
Declaration of Independence, will be observed in every
American state. There will be speeches, programs and
various celebrations as the men and women of today
eulogize the great event of 177G.
The adoption of a resolution authored by five
members of the Continental Congress, July 4, 1776, is
one of the great days of democratic civilization and
history.
The resolution was authored by Thomas Jeffer-
son, chairman, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Roger
Sherman and Roger Livingston. Adoption of the reso-
lution dissolving ties between England and the Ameri-
can colonies, required courage and faith.
Today, however, the historic Fourth hits become
identified as a day of leisure, marked by deaths, acci-
dents, games and amusement.
\Ve doubt if many readers of this editorial have
recently read the words of the Declaration. We recom-
mend, therefore, that citizens take time out, on a busy
day, and carefully consider the truths that Mr. Jeffer-
son so ably expressed.

girls. He is a young evangelist who
fearlessly preaches the Bible,” said

“We cordially Invite all of you to
