The bell was parchasbd from a firm In London, England, felt when it arrived in this country aa error in the Inscription was discorered and the bell Itself cracked when first tested, la August, 1752. Tfca bell could not be transported back to England, and two Philadelphia men nanied Pass and Stow attempted to cast a new one, but it also was discorered to be imperfect The bell was finally accepted in Juue, 1753, and put in its place In the tower of the building. % Included In items of expenses for making and hanging the bell, historical documents show, were potatoes, beef, hams, mustard, pepper, salt, butter, cheese, limes, bread, wood, earthenware, and beer and rum, the whole amount costing about $28. Pass and Stow were paid about $300 for casting the bell. , The Liberty bell was not always treated with jthe reverence shown It now.

In addition to the usual-accidents from fire-works, automobile smasb- ~ups, arid drownings, there ar© a number of health hazards connected with Fourth of July picnicing and weekending that the average person is likely to overlook, the association points out. "Do not drink from ~ streams or casual springs. Regardless of how pure and sparkling the water may look, typhoid germs may be present. It no other source of supply is available, boil the water before using," the excessive exposure to the sun." statement says. When camping, select a site on high ground if possible, away from swamps, sloughs, or other mosquito breeding places.- A certain type of mosquito carries malalria gernras. - - "Learn to" distinguish vines such as poison ivy, oak and sumac. If they are touched, wash the affected part3 in soap and warm wiater immediately and see a doctor as soon as possible. "Just because it is a holiday does not permit your stomach to accommodate large quantities of hot dogs, pink lemonade, sour pickles and bananas. Don't overeat, ,ancP beware of vicious combinations.
