around the world. It probably never will be. Whatever the situation in the rost o' the world, July 4th is a day t'» remember. After struggling for years, our country was free.

Even though we are faced with policing action such as we are, this is still the greatest land in the world to live in and this should be remembered on this great American Holiday, Independence Day.

Rivalry of the so't ball variety has broken out in Walkerton again, but in a new spot.
