There was a time that this date was known as a holiday, a day off, a day for a carnival, for a parade, for fireworks and and the sincere hope for the best of everything in the coming years. That's about it for another month. See you at the next meeting P. Salika, President Independence Day. Now, all we|> have left' is just a day off The pai^de left long ago, now the fireworks follow suit. "It's a sad era when pedple become so money minded that they arrange our national holidays to fit our town festivities. "Rather than arrange the carnival and fireworks to meet the Fourth of July, we simply change the Fourth of July to July 7. Simple, just throw such words as patriotism and heritage and tradition into the graveyard of the obsolete. "For the information of thos<> wondering what I am talking about, Independence Day i& oui nation's birthday, which is, or was, July 4. A "birthday won with blood and guts and pawithout a cake or party. "Let us hope we all re-examine this in our minds and put the Fourth of July back where it belongs, on the fourth, not the fifth, sixth or seventh. "Yours truly, "Donald E. Kinsala."
