I Time wss when the function of the church was Sup- posed to ' consist In acting the part of celestial guide to the weary pilgrim in his Journey from the city of destruction to the heavenly Canaan. Tha world was viewed as a kind of vanity fair against whose allurements the church anxiously warned the pilgrim. That conception Is giving place to another, but the duty of tha church ta not going to urge men to flea from tht world, but rather to wrest from tha Prince of Evil, and then turn Its powers and re sources to beneflclent ends. Thla paw con ception dominates all tha churehee. Evea tha Churoh of England la permeated with tba social spirit, and ' among Its leading clergy ara to be found earnest workers In tba cause of Christian socialism. . Mesi'a Movement ta Be Preeeaaj.

Not a thing was present to roar tha celebration of the day save tha extreme heat. But with Old Sol sending his rays down as though they came direct from a furnace, raised to white heat; the klddiea enjoyed themselves with no thought of the morrow. The sweltering heat was forgot ten In the excitment of the festivities and with tha aid of cold drinks all msnaged to brave ths untiring efforts of the sun. Never In the history of Omaha has a national holiday been celebrated with sOcb uniform success. Promoters of tha eafe and aane Ideas felt amply repaid for their unceasing labors undsr the sweltering rays of the sun. What little auggestion there was of the old Ideas of noise waa limited mainly to tha downtown, districts, where a few could not suppress ths Mesa 01 wnooping ner up a bit. Here and there, especially along Sisteenth street, the barbarous Idsa of lay ing tha street car tracks with dynamite caps could not ba forgotten. Lata way farers on their way home paid the penalty. when the constant crack of tha caps jarred soma from their slumbers and preyed on the nerves of thoeo unfortunates who are afflicted with such things.

Oames were arranged for the afternoon. Toung and old participated in tennis matches, tugs of wars, foot racea. In which the eompetltora were g&rbed In grotesque costumes, and In parades, which elicited much comment for the wonderful creations. Oeorgeous displays of fireworks brought ths festivities of the day to a dose. In ths Prairie park district a display, costing mora than 1140, was provided, while a similar display waa given on West Harney street.

Roma Miller, president of tha Park board, spoke to ths residents of Prairie park on "Civic Pride." Tha moving aplrlt In tha Park board con gratulated tha Prairie park residents on their schlevement and declared that they bad built up the prettiest addition In the city. -The Saecessfwl Man. 'Success," said Mr. Miller, "does not de pend upon the dollars which we accumu late In this world. It depends more upon tha homes ws build. I consider that man successful who has bullded himself a home and In It haa established a happy family. I cars not whether he goes to his last resting place with much ef this world's goods. He who has built for himself a con genial home Is the man who can truthfully ba Judged successful." Colonel T. W. McCullough of Tha Be gave an Interesting history of Omaha, re citing at length details of Its almost won derful growth. He referred especially to the development of the park and boulevard system, declaring that for the amount of money expended Omaha had a boulevard system aecond to none. "And when we get ready to spend millions upon our system we will build one thst will excel that of other cities, where many millions have been Spent." said Mr. McCullough. "Omaha has the natural advantages for beautiful parks and for beautiful boule vards. This has been utilised in a measure, but not to tha extent that la possible. " Rev. Edward Hart Jenks entertained the celebrants on West Harney street with an Instructive sddresa, In which he gave the history of ths American republic, teljlng how It had grown from a mere handful of States, which had nerve to throw off the galling yoke of the mother country, and which haa risen by Its own ertorts to the foremost ranks of the powers of the world. Colonel John J. Ryder, also cf The Bee staff, was master of ceremonies In ths Prairie Park dlatrict. It was he who directed the activities of the young and old; It waa ba who Introduced the speakers of ths svenlng in his own Inimitable wsy; and It was he who, by his unceasing labors, mad! the safe snd aane Fourth a hugs success.

' Therefore, small blame to ths woman who eh g a gee "la-Book." the Ladles' Tailor, to make to her order, for S, tha self same garments usually made and sold by thla expert at no less than 110. In fact, there Is a slogan among Omaha women, that "La-Book never makes a suit less than M0" but this Is usually sup plemented by another slogan something Ilka thla: "La-Book makes tha very toniest garmenta In .he west." So, If "La-Book." offers to make his I best, full styls1, meet excellently meter- lalod, built to order 110 suits for IIS, tha offer should attract yo aa readily aa it has attracted othera. 1 'La-Book's" parlors are In tha Webster- Sunderland Building, at llth and Howard Sta., a location irdeed central, and if you are restricted In regard to time you hava only to prfone Douglas 7(71 to make a definite appointment.

He directed ths work with the skill of a veteran, and the fact that there were no accidents, attested to the masterful manner In which ha handled thla detail. Representatives of historical characters' participated in the parades, both In Prairie Park and Weat Farnam districts. It re mained for Mrs. Gcorgs E. Mlckel, In whose fertile brain the eafe and aane Idea originated, to evolve a parade that was unique. Thirty-five children, clsd In Im maculate white, with the national colors used as a setting, participated In the parade, which wended Its way out Harney street snd back again. Gladys Mlckel and Katherlne Hastings represented Nebraska and Omaha In the parade. Lillian Myer waa Miss Columbia and Lorene Rosen stock waa her escort. Beulab Clark waa ! Martha Washington. Tha children, wno ranged In age from I to W years, onterea into the spirit of the celebration with a vim which evoked much favorable com ment. Such waa also true of ths fesllvK ties at Prairie Park. When tha ahadea ol night fell on ths Fourth of July. Mil. the residents of Omaha had proved beyond ft doubt that tha barbarous customs of the past are burled, never to be revived. No maimed children to protest against tba old order of things was result reached, which even ths most snthuslastlo could hardly have expected. In the future, it Is safe to say that safe snd sane celebrations will be the ruls. Surely with the results of the recent holiday to attest to the worth of ths safs and aana Idea, there will hardly bs those who will have the temerity to suggest a return to ths former customs.
