Don't you want to make some
poor lonesome child happy? You
can do so by offering to take two or
more fresh air children. They are
coming to 'Honesdale and expect to
invade Wayne county within a few
weeks. Help just a little by offer
ing your willingness to take some
of the children.
FRESH Allt FUND.
Have you given to the " Fresh
Air Fund " or have you offered to
take one or two little boys or girls
for a couple of weeks, away from
tho noise, the filth and heat of New
York city? Thirty-six thousand
windowles3 rooms in New York.
Boys and girls who do not know
what a breath of pure, fresh, sweet
mountain or country air means, who
have never seen tho buttercups and
daisies, the green meadows and fields
of corn, the sheep or cows, never had
a backyard or little patch of green
to play In, who have never known
what good table food means, who
have never had a delicacy; whose
faces are drawn and gaunt with want
and not enough to eat. The Fresh
Air Society of Now York sends out
twelve thousand or more of these
poor little boys and girls for two
weeks each Summer; the children
are given clean clothing, after an
examination by a physician that the
boy or girl are not suffering with a
contagious or malignant disease, and
then their fares are paid to Hones
dalo or elsewhere where a family lias
agreed to receive and care for them
for two weeks. A couple of car
loads have been provided for in this
part of tho state, and we should be
glad to have a great many readers of
The Citizen send word to Rev. W. H.
Swift, D. D., or Tho Citizen that
they will take a couple of children.
You will be glad of any sacrifice you
will make when you see how happy
your little guests will (be, and you
will regret to part with them. You
will learn what the poor children
of a big city really have to undergo,
and what happiness you have
brought into their life.
LET'S HAVE A SAFE AND SANE
FOURTH.
Each year since 1903 The Journal
of tho American Medical Association
has been waging a propaganda
against tho lnsenatc maiming and
death-dealing methods of celebrating
our independence holiday. It has
gathered and collated the indubitable
facts; and the lay press magazines
and newspapers havo seconded its
endeavors so that an almost revolu
tionary change has been taking
place.
It Is gratifying to observe that
more and more the constituted au
thorities have recognized that It Is
their duty to prevent the burning
and the crippling of children and
their death from lockjaw by pro
hibiting the sale of fireworks and
Uko destructive agencies. Olllcial
appreciation of this fact Is evidenced
by tho enactment and enforcement of
appropriate ordinances. Many offi
cials havo In tho most salutary way
co-operated with non-governmental
agencies Interested in tho safe and
sane Fourth. Legislation against
fireworks has been restrictive or
prohibitive. Tho latter, of course,
gives tho best results.
In European countries occasions
akin to our Independence Day are
commemorated by means of fetes
and other picturesque ceremonies,
quite adequately, Just as heartily
and (with as much patriotic fervor as
amoung us. Continental peoples
have a genius for festivities, national

as well as all other kinds. For
ndult patriotism, oratory may suf
flee; but this is not satisfying to the
youth of the land. In tho legit
imate Interests of boyhood and girl
hood, things equally brilliant and
satisfactory must bo substituted for
the noise, the flare and tho varicolor-
ed flame; and substitutes even more
resplendent havo been found In
abundance. We have now methods
by which the Fourth shall cease to
be a day of terror, and shall become
Instead one of happiness, recreation
and enlightenment. Noise Is now
being replaced by music tho music
of bands, and of choruses drilled
weeks beforehand by skilled leaders,
and the singing of national airs and
popular 6ongs. There are tableaux,
plays, floats devised tby artists, rep
resenting historic and patriotic inci
dents and achievements; parades in
which tho Army and Navy, tho police
and fire departments, the militia,
school children and Industrial or
ganlzatlons take part; picnics with
circuses and pink lemonade, pea
nuts, ice cream and watermelon suf
ficient to satisfy the most anacon-
dean digestion; parks and other pub
lic places and buildings, both pub
lic and private, gorgeously Illuminat
ed by electricity; children's carnivals
and dances; school celebrations; ath
letlc sports, with distribution of cop
ies of the Constitution, and so on.
And no mamlngs, no burnings, no
killings, no lockjaw!
A TREACHEROUS PROPOSITION.
One of tho most commendable
things that Colonel Roosevelt has
done politically and he has done
many commendable things was to
decline the suggestion of certain of
his followers, that he should still
pose as a Republican, after the
break with his party at Chicago, and
after his declared Intention to give
battle to its candidates and princi
ples. Tho Colonel's own Idea is
that he should head an absolutely
new and Independent party, cutting
entirely loose from the Republican
organization. This is the proper
and honorable thing to do if he feels
the necessity of being a candidate
for the presidency In opposition to
tho Republican platform. It Is still
whispered however, by those coming
from consultation at Oyster Bay that
there Is to bo an attempt to hold the
Republican electors for Roosevelt in
states like Pennsylvania where they
were named by state conventions con
trolled by the Roosevelt forces. We
cannot believe that this plan has the
sanction of Colonel Roosevelt.
While he is capable of calling on his
followers to support him at the sac
rifice of their political fortunes, it Is
not conceivable that ho will demand
of them the sacrlflco of their politi
cal honor. Electors were named in
Pennsylvania by a Republican state
convention, to vote for the candi
dates who should bo nominated for
President and Vice-President by tho
Republican national convention.
That convention has nominated Win.
H. Taft and James H. Sherman. It
Is not conceivable that tho Republi
can presidential electors of this
state will cast their electoral ballots
for anyone else. To do so would bo
such a brench of party faith and
honor as this country has never yet
witnessed. If any Republican pres
idential elector feels that ho cannot
conscientiously cast his electoral
ballot for tho candidate named by
tho Chicago convention he should
at once withdraw from tho ticket
and permit tho substitution of some
one who will not hesitate to carry
out the will of his party as that will
has been expressed by tho only or
ganized body authorized to express
It, tho Republican National Conven
tion. Those who would masquerado
as Republicans, at tho same time
stabbing tho party in tho back, aro
political traitors. If Col. Roosovolt
and his followers feel that tho can
didates and principles of tho party as
named and expressed by tho conven
tion should bo defeated, It is their
privilege to stand outside and fight
them openly. To direct their at
tack from tho shelter of tho party
home whllo posing as an Inmato,
Is a scheme of treachery worthy of
the most conscienceless. Wo do not
believo they will attempt It.
PEOPLE'S FORUM,
More About tho Fish.
Mr. Editor:
Can you tell mo why tho State al
lows hundreds of fish to bo killed
by tho running of poison Into our
streams (local rivers Included), but
ir a boy who might bo Ignorant of
tho law, as to tho size of a fish Is
caught, arrested and n heavy flno
plnced upon him?
Of course, If they continue to
dump tho poison into the river
there will not bo a partlcal of ac
quatic life from (Dyberry to tho Dola
waro 'Bay, but after that date, when
nil tho fish aro dead, they must stop
killing tho rest of them. Then the
fish commission will begin to stock
tho river -with llsh, and after a lapse
of about eight years thero will
again bo fishing in tho Dyberry,
Lackawaxen and Delaware rivers.
iMeanwhllo, boys who catch an un
dersized llsh aro dealt with without
mercy. But oh, well.

CREDITED EDITORIALS AND
COMMENTS.
Mr. Tuft's Kcnominntlon.
(From tho Waynesboro Record.)
The Republican party through Its
national convention in Chicago,
named Presdent William 'Howard
Taft as Its candidate for the succes
sion to himself. The action of the
convention will meet with the ap
probation of the members of tho
party wbo put the party and its
good, the country and us continued
safe direction, above tho ambition
of any one man. President Taft
earned his ronominatlon by the
wholesomeness, the sanity, the ac-
compllshments of his administra
tion.
Trbuto to Tnft,
(From the Rochester Democrat
Chronicle.)
Mr. Taft labored under certain ob
vious disadvantages in the campaign
for the nomination. It is to be re
called to his honor now that In the
most trying hour he held steadfast
to tho principles which ho believed
to be right. Ho believes in tho safe
guards provided by the Constitution
for the maintenance of order and the
protection of all citizens in their
rights. He believes in upholding
the integrity of the courts. He be
lieves that the Government possesses
ample power to grapple with every
evil that changing conditions may
develop. His candidacy will there
fore appeal to those who have watch
ed the rising tide of radicalism with
concern, and who desire to see It
checked.
William it. Taft.
(From the Wllkes-Barre Evening
iNews.)
The Republican party can go be
fore the country In the 1912 cam
paign without being required to
make any apologies with the Honor
able 'William Howard Taft as Its
standard-bearer. When the smoke
of the primary battle Is cleared away
and when sanity takes the place of
the present period of hysteria and
the people have a chance to review
the splendid achievements of Presi
dent Taft during tho three years
that ho has filled tho Presidential
chair the false accusations and mall
clous assaults that have been made
against him will be forgotten and
tho Intelligent citizenship of the na
tions will measure him at his true
worth. No man was more lavish in
his praise of Mr. Taft a few short
years ago than was Colonel "Roose
velt. It Lives!
'Men may come and men may go,
but the reputation lives on for
ever. Bosses may rise and bosses may
fall, but the Republican party will
survive and go on to final victory.
Presidents may win and Presi
dents may lose, candidates may
quarrel and platforms may bo per
verted, but the rank and the file of
tho voting masses ultimately will
come to a sound decision.
This nation was not born in a
day. It was the outcome of a long
and bitter struggle. It survived tho
shock of war with other nations. It
came out of its civil strife chastened
and strengthened.
It has passed through many
waves of adversity. It has swept
away obstacles that seemed Insur
mountable. It has overthrown
demagogues and demolished dis
turbers. It will do It again.
Once more It is being put to tho
test. Experimental theorists, solf
seoking egotists and loud-mouthed
demogoguos are having thoir day.
Whether It will 'bo a long or a short
one depends upon tho common sense
of the American people.
'Are all tho lessons taught by tho
bitter experiences of the past to go
for naught and bo forgotten? Wo
hope not. Wo believe not.

THAT "LITTLE BOY BLUE" OF
YOURS.
The little toy dog Is covered with
dust,
But sturdy and stanch he stands;
And the little toy soldier In red with
rust.
And tho musket moulds In his
hands.
Time was when the little toy dog
was new.
And the soldier was passing fair;
And that was the time when our Lit
tle Boy Blue
Kissed them and put them there
"Now don't you go till I come," he
said,
"And don't you make any noise!'
So, toddling off to his trundle bed,
Ho dreamt of the pretty toys.
And, as he was dreaming, an angel
song
Oh! tho years are many, the years
are long,
But the little toy friends aro true
Aye, faithful to Little Boy Blue they
stand,
Each in the same old place
Awaiting the touch of a little hand
The smile of a little face.
And they wonder, as waiting the long
years through
In the dust of that little chair,
What has become of our Little Boy
Blue,
Since he kissed them and put them
there.
Somehow, when wo read these
pretty verses of Eugene Field, we
can't help but think of tho Little
Boy Blue and there will bo many
of him! who will be offered as a
sacrlflco on tho altar of misdirected
patriotism next Thursday, the
Fourth of July.
There are so very, very many
homes In which a little toy dog and a
little rusty tin soldier stand waiting
the long years through for tho Little
Boy Blue who will never come.
Thero aro so many other homes in
which a Little Boy 'Blue lives eter
nally in the gloom of night because
daylight ceased for him In a sudden
flash of Fourth of July powder.
'And thero aro the Little Boys, too,
and tho Little Girls, who aro maimed
and crippled because of this foolish
Idea that to be patriotic and to ob
serve tho Fourth of July means that
we must play with danger.
The number of deaths as a result
of our Independence Day celebrations
has been decreasing for a number of
years becauso of the agitation for a
safe and sano observance, but tho
death list is still a long one and the
list of Injured Is largor than would
result from a battle between armed
foes.
Let us keep our Littlo Boy Blue
with us. Let us not havo occnslon to
feel a deep sorrow when wo seo a
littlo toy dog. all covered with dust
and a littlo tin soldier, red with
rust, awaiting tho touch of a little
hand that Is still and the smile of a
little face that Is gono forever.
Let us havo a really safo and sano

Vol. 1.
The Board of Trado pledged Itself,
to raise $30,000 of tho Gurney Elec
tric Elevator bonds a few weeks ago.
The hustling commltteo has that
amount nearly subscribed for, two
of tho committee having secured
nearly ?10,000 each.
The merchants of Honesdale ought
to have special trading days when
bargains could bo offered to seekers.
Honesdalo has excellent train service
which ought to be taken advantage
of. If anyone can accomplish It, it
Is the merchant. Why let other
cities draw the trade from our
doors?
Every man who wants to see pros
perity In Honesdale, (and It is cer
tainly coming if not driven away),
should do everything possible to help
the Board of Trado encourago good
times and keep he wheels of Indus
try moving. A sprag in the wheel
in tho form of a disinterested per
son will do more to Injure the town
than anything possible.
Mail order houses are catering for
your business. Old you ever stop to
think that you cannot get an article
from ono of these houses without
sending cash In advance with your
order? Also that tho proprietor of
the mall order houso docs not pay
taxes, that will benefit our town.
That In tho end you pay moro for
your out-of-town goods than you do
for homo goods.

giving people all day If necessary tf
transact their business at tho couny
seat and return home the same even
