I (Continued on Latt Page) FOR A HAPPY HOLIDAY CAMP MEETINGS The "Olorluos Fourth" can be Just as glorious as we choo.>e to make It. This year the long week-end cre¬ ated by the holiday will Intensify the hazards which the Fourth always produces. The watchword should be, "Take Care!" Independence Day celebrates the ndependence of a nation. The com ing week-end will demonstrate viv¬ idly the modern independence of ,}:ople. Oreat streams of traffic .louring over the highways will show .low essential are mutual regard and 30urtesy among drivers. Fireworks .vill demonstrate It tco. A "fire¬ cracker thrown by another" Is, ac¬ cording to the National Conserva¬ tion Bureau, the greatest aingle cause of the tremendous number of fireworks accidents every Fourth of July. At the beaches and lakes, imprudent swimmers will aga^ re¬ mind us that human life must be risked to save the Ufe of a drown¬ ing person. Reasonable care divides a happy holiday from tne tragedies which mar it. Reasonable care will Insure you, your family, and the other fellow against mishap. For Instance: If you drive—see that your car Is in good mechanical condition. Check tires, lights, brakes, steering mech¬ anisms, windshield wiper, rear-view mirror, horn. Drive skillfully, at a resaonable speed. Observe the rules and courtesies of the road. If you must use fireworks—give yourself plenQy of space. Keep away from children and animals and buildings. Throw firecrackers away from people and Inflamab'.e materials, not at them. Never hold an exploding firecracker, nor set them off under a bottle or can. Cauterize the smallest wound Im- mtdiately—tetanus poisoning works fast and kills. If you go swimming—swim In safe and protected places. Beware of strong tides and currents. Know vour llmit.s as a swimmer. Walt two hours after eating. Avoid shal¬ low places. • » Local Scouts To Washington Jamboree Four Local Memliers Attending 0l)servil34tli Wedding Anniversary > tA a [n Charge Of Heclctown Parish For Thirty Years REV Rev J years J A KLICK A ai Sunday June 27:h. ck comple-^d thirty . ^ stor of the Hecktown parish The It was eeiebrat'f'd^k' admlivu-, ig th^ Holy CotiM^jyon.

TmAmr'm Today the buisness outkMk U curiously mixed. On the tuifavor* ahle side, the strike situation growt -teadily more tense, even as indl* vidual strikes are growing mora bloody and embltt.ered, and troubles such as those now being exptrt' anced by the independent l I »l companies may be felt In other UR* jjortant indu-trles before the year^ end. On top of this, Congrssa U considering or about to eonsidar s number of legislative propoaali ¦ ranging all the way from a new amd more stringent "NRA" to creation at a gigantic, Pederally-owned super* power system—which are anatbams to all business leaders. And tbera U a gtxxl chance that taxes will b* materially Increaaed (or 19M. Even so. the strength ot the rt« covery movement—expressed In rU« Ing Incomes, and an almost lnaatl« able public desire for commodltMg of all kinds—Is »o great that prac« tically all of the established (ore* casting services are bullish. Thus, in recent weelcs, the Alexander Hamilton service has said, "Tht world Is in the boom phase of tht ouslness cycle." Bab.son believes that "gains over a year ago should continue to be well maintained." Brookmlre anticipates that "re¬ newed recovery should follow tht sum.mer lull" Colonel Ayres aeea "m reason to fear that any serious busines.s ri-ces.sion is impending." Gibson says. No major decline Is in prospect for the .summer months." Poor's foresees "some recession dur¬ ing the near term," but nothing s» vere. Summing up opinion, United Busine.ss Service ob.serves that "prea¬ ent indications point to a moderate letdown in activity over the next tam months, although busness In tht aggregate should hold above • year ago." So far as specific elements In the Indusitrial picture are oonoeirwd, the commentators agree fairly well. Most of them think that bond prlan will be either stablllxed at currant levels, or mav go down slightly dut to higher interest rates. Stocks art definitely irregular, wtth the reeent trend downward, but neither ma¬ terial advances nor recessions art anticipated. There wUI be llttlt variance in commodity prices gen¬ erally durng the next (ew months, with a possible rise coming In tht fall. Summer trade In all lines, seasonal factors considered, will bt good, and better than in 1939. For¬ eign trade should start upward, but it will be a long time before pm* depression levels are again reached. A war in Europe would revoluttonlat :lie outlook In this field, but ftW believe that any of the major power* are sufficiently confident to risk • war as vet—they are simply blufltoig and stalling. For most indu.stries. the earnings outlook is good—though nowher* near as ffood as the production out- loiok. Some of the largest Indus* tries—of which the railroads are A case in pjoint—are doing a greatly increased \olume of business wtth extremely small increases in earn* ings. due to higher taxes, hlgbtr wages, etc However, practically all IndiLstry has emerged (rom tht •deficit peri'd" and Is at least m the black Ink. - BEEKEEPERS PROTEST STATES ACTION Tlie state bee Inspector bas been visiMng this -^'ction during the past few weeks and has condemned and burned in the neighborhood ot fif¬ teen of twenty hives. The hives wwrt destroyed because of "foul brood," a disease which exists among be«s. So says the in.spector. but the ownera of these hives protest this sort off action and are negotlsiing wtth their attorney for some future action.
