A great day—a glad day—a solemn day—that Fourth July, 1776, when the great Liberty Bell pealed out the glad tildings for all the world to hear that the Declaratian of Independence had been adopted. And the famous old Liberty Bell will most likely again be heard on Independence Day in 1932 as well as on February 22 of that year as a part of the ceremonies being planned by the George Washington Bicentennial Commission to celebrate the two hundredth anniversary of the birth of the first President. Radio Hookup Planned On those two dates it is planned to have special patricio programs, including a nation-wide radio hookup, over which the Nation's most historic bell will again be heard as it was on February 22, 1931, when Mayor Harry A. Mackey, of Philadelphia, tapped the bell 13 times in Independence Hall on George Washington's birthday. According to noted historians, the last ringing of the bell, while it was in the tower of Independence Hall, took place on July 8, 1835, in honor of the funeral services of John Marshall, Chief Justice of the United States, who died in Philadelphia July 6, 1835. While the bell was being solemnly tolled, it suddenly cracked. An attempt was made to repair it in 1846 for the celebration of Washington's birthday ceremonies, but the attempt failed. Before It Cracked Before it cracked, the Liberty Bell had lived a life of $2 useful years and had become one of the most famous bells in the world. All through the Revolutionary War the Liberty Bell was used for the purpose of calling together the inhabitants of the city to learn news from the battlefields. At one time during the war, however, it became necessary to remove the bell hastily from its fastenings and take it out of the city. This exciting event took place on September 18, 1777, when the news came that the British army was about to occupy Philadelphia. The bell was carefully loaded on a wagon and conveyed along with the heavy baggage of the American Army in a supply train of 700 wagons, guarded by 200 North Carolina and Virginia Cavalry, to Allen-town, Pa., where it was hidden in Zion's Church until June 27, 1778, when it was taken back to Philadelphia and again placed in Independence Hall. Now Reverently Preserved Never from that time until 1835 did anything of great public importance happen that was not announced by the ringing of this historic bell. It was joyously rung when the news came of the surrender of Cornwallis to General Washington, in 1781, which ended the military campaign of the Revolution. The old bell is reverently preserved. It stands on the ground floor of Independence Hall, where it is viewed daily by thousands of visitors from all sections of this country. Made Many Journeys The Liberty Bell has been a great traveler in its day. In fact, it has seen more of the United States than a vast majority of the people. In addition to its war-time trip to Allentown, it has made the following peace-time journeys: July 23, 1885—to New Orleans for the World's Industrial and Cotton Exposition. July 25, 1893—to the World's Columbia Exposition at Chicago. October 24, 1895—To the Cotton States and Atlantic Exposition, Atlanta, Ga. January 6, 1902—Interstate and West India Exposition, Charleston, S.C. June 15, 1903—Bunker Hill Celebration, Boston, Mass. 1904—Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St. Louis, Mo. October 23, 1913—Historical Street Parade, Founders' Week Celebration, Philadelphia, Pa. July 4, 1915—To the Panama-Pacific Exposition at San Francisco, Calif. George-Washington very often heard the ringing of the Liberty Bell, due to the fact that he spent more time in Philadelphia than any other place, except his home State of Virginia.

Select regular leaves and boll them for a minute only in a syrup made from one cup of sugar and a quarter cup of water. The syrup should have been boiled a few minutes before the mint leaves are added. Take the leaves from the syrup and let dry for four or five hours. Have ready an unbeaten egg white. Dip each leaf in this and dust with fine granulated sugar, and let dry on the top of stove or in an open oven. Parsnip Saute Having boiled the parsnips, cut them in long narrow strips like cigarettes. Put them into a saucepan with a large lump of drippings or butter, and shake occasionally until the butter absorbs and the edges of the parsnips become slightly browned; do not allow them to fry crisp. Chop a tablespoonful of parsley fine, stir it, with pepper and salt, into the pasnips and serve. Spinach Au Gratin Chop two cups of drained spinach and add a little salt and pepper and two cups of medium thick white sauce. Butter a baking dish, put in a layer of this, then a layer of bread crumbs and a layer of cheese. You will need one cup of the crumbs and one half cup of grated yellow cheese. Continue until all ingredients have been used. On top place a layer of crumbs and a sprinkling of cheese; dot with butter and bake. Good Salad A smart tea-room serves this combination, which is indeed delicious: A mound of potato salad on a lettuce leaf or two on a plate, and lying against the mound, on each of its four sides, a boneless, skinned sardine. This is really a very delicious luncheon com- and when cold, ice with Shepherd's Plate Cut cold mutton into place in a baking dish. Coat gravy. A thinly sliced onion added if liked.

Linked With History of July 4th INDEPENDENCE HALL, PHILADELPHIA, PA. U.S. George Washington Bicentennial Commission. Independence Hall, which will be the scene of impressive ceremonies during the George Washington Bicentennial celebrations in 1932, is inside from its historical interest, one of the most outstanding architectural monuments in Declaration chambers as prisoners of war. Continental Congress, which had left Philadelphia in December, 1776, reconvened in the east room March 4, 1777; they left again September 18, returned July 2, 1778, and continued to sit there developing a brand new vocabulary, let some hard soul suggest for a North Californian the desirability of permitting the capital of the State to follow the population and move south. Oh boy! Andy Mellon says he didn't go to Europe on business. How many men are brave enough to tell the truth last that? Secretary Stimson has gone to Europe and we hope he gets back without losing his watch and stick pin. Independence Hall, which will be the venue of impressive ceremonies during the George Washington bicentennial celebrations in 1932, is, aside from its historical interest, one of the most outstanding architectural monuments in the United States. Designed by a Lawyer Independence Hall and its wings were designed and built by Andrew Hamilton, a lawyer of Philadelphia. After the Provincial Assembly of Pennsylvania had been compelled to "hire a house annually" in which to hold its meetings, the Journal records the fact that on the first of May, 1729, "the house took into consideration the necessity of a house of the Assembly for its Province to meet in, and it was unanimously resolved that £2,000 of the $30,000 then to be emitted in paper currency, should be appropriated towards building such a House." Liberty Bell Installed The State House was first occupied by the Legislature in October, 1736, when Andrew Hamilton was elected Speaker for the seventh term, and Benjamin Franklin was a clerk. It was not until 1750, however, that the Assembly ordered a tower to be erected in which the famous old Liberty Bell was later placed. In 1759 a clock was also placed in the tower. Of the notable events that have taken place in Independence Hall, the following are of especial interest: On June 16, 1775, Washington accepted his appointment as Commander-Chief of the Contental Army. On July 4, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was adopted. The convention to form a new constitution for Pennsylvania met from July 15 to September 28, 1776, and unanimously approved the Declaration of Independence. Used as a Prison The American officers taken by the British at the battles of Brandywine September 11, 1777) and Germantown October 4, 1777) were held in the Declaration chambers as prisoners of war. Continental Congress, which had left Philadelphia in December, 1776, reconvened in the cast room March 4, 1777; they left again September 18, returned July 2, 1778, and continued to sit there until the close of the Revolution. On July 9, 1778, the Articles of Confederation and perpetual union between the States were signed in the Declaration Chamber by eight States. The five remaining signed later, the last (Maryland) on March 1, 1781. Constitutional Convention Meets The Federal convention met there, to frame a Constitution for the United States, from May 14 to September 14, 1787, and, after final action and engrossing of the Constitution, those present affixed to it their signatures. The convention for the State of Pennsylvania ratified the Federal Constitution here on December 13, 1787. In 1802 the whole of the second floor of the State House was used as a museum by Charles Wilson Peale, the portrait painter, he having been granted the use of it free by the Legislature. In 1824 Lafayette visited Philadelphia and was given a reception in the Independence Chamber. The bodies of John Marshall, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court; Henry Clay (1852); Elish Kent Kane, the Arctic explorer (1857), and Abraham Lincoln (1865), were among those which lay in state in Independence Hall. July 2 Neglected July 2 has been neglected as an anniversary date of importance by the American people; yet it is one of the most significant dates of our history. For it was on July 2, and not July 4, 1776, that American Independence was really voted by the Continental Congress then in session. The Bicentennial Commission calls the attention of the Nation to this fact and suggests that, when the people throughout the land celebrate Independence Day in 1932, July 2 as well as July 4, be recognized in the merry making and thanksgiving which the anniversary of that great document brings forth.

High cooking temperatures make cheese tough and less easily digested, so always avoid spreading it on the top of baked dishes where it is subject to greater heat than when it is mixed with the food. Cheese is a concentrated food and consequently it is best served with bread or other cereals accompanied by tomatoes, lettuce, spinach, or fruit. Summer rugs should be down by this time and winter ones put away out of moths' temptation. Certain parts of a rug are walked on more than others, so it is a wise precaution to turn them about frequently to distribute the wear evenly. LAURELS FOR ROLPH Governor Rolph has reached that stage of his administration where he is being spoken of as "a nice fella," but—He is the "travelingest" executive California has ever had, and may be depended upon to be among those present at any function to which he is invited, from a baby christening in Eureka to an orange show in Anaheim, which is what the orators mean when they say "from the frost-tipped north to the sunkissed south." With crime more or less rampant, says the New York Times, the Governor's anti-capital punishment procedures are a source of considerable uncertainty, especially in the south. He has not permitted a hanging since he took office early in January. When the fine new State building now under construction in Los Angeles is completed the Governor and other State departments will maintain offices and staffs there, where a large percentage of the official business originates. Sacramento, while more or less geographically centralized, is really an outpost and San Francisco a way station, but to start a really up-and-coming argument. Announcing ... Patten-Blinn Lumber Co.
