Farmington gained i t s freedom i n 1798, f i f t e e n years a f t e r i t
petitioned for t h i s
right.
Located about midway between the ocean and the l a k e and
mountain regions, Puddledoctc serves as a passageway from both
the north and the south to these scenic wonders.
H.
Farmington has had i t s share of great men, too, Heniy
Wilson, Vice-President under Ulyssess S. Grant, was be -n here
i n 1812.
Martin Luther Hayes, f i r s t of New Hampshire's t r u l y
s u c c e s s f u l shoe i n d u s t r i a l i s t s , was bom here i n l837 and Henry
C l i n t o n F a l l and Raymond P e a l , both noted s c i e n t i s t s originated
from t h i s v i l l a g e ,
Puddledock does not l a c k f o r c u l t u r a l enlightenment.
The

Medieval Armor provide e x c e l l e n t opportunities f o r c u l t u r a l
advancement. Siammer theatres'are i n near reach as are the f a c i l
i t i e s of the U n i v e r s i t y of New Hampshire.
Farmington's schools and teachers are among the best i n the
s t a t e . The newly b u i l t high school i s t r u l y one of the best i n
the area and the Burtman-Rondeau Gymnasium one of the f i n e s t i n

H.
Municipal Farmington a f f a i r s are directed by a board of
three selectmenj while the schools, using the eight year-four
year system, are under the power of the three man school board.
Jictters concerning the entire town, such as municipal and school
budgets are taken care of i n the most democratic way, through

�town meetings, vjhere a l l c i t i z e n s may p a r t i c i p a t e i n the running

Puddledock's f i n e water i s taken from a r t e s i a n wells that
service the e n t i r e town. The town also runs the Pine Grove
Cemetary, the sewage system, snow removal, road maintenance, and
refuge disposal systems.
A volunteer f i r e department ably keeps a l l loses by f i r e to
a minimum and an a l e r t p o l i c e force protects the c i t i z e n s i n t e r ests and property.
A f i n e , healthy atmosphere, b e a u t i f u l scenery, e x c e l l e n t
job opportunities, high q u a l i t y schools, many f r i e n d l y s o c i a l
organizations, good r e c r e a t i o n a l f a c i l i t i e s are found i n and

I n e l e c t i o n s we observe t h i s by r e g i s t e r i n g and voting

government i n a worthy manner.
By not being a l i t t e r b u g we keep our country b e a u t i f u l
f o r o t h e r s . By paying taxes we provide the means f o r our
c h i l d r e n to become worthy guardians of our American t r a d i t i o n s .
Above a l l , we must s e t the proper example f o r each other,
"Doing unto others as you would have them do unto you" i s a
motto which we should a l l s t r i v e to put i n t o everyday use.

RATHER THAN THE USUAL KNOCK ON YOUR DOOR FOR A TRICK OR
TREAT, THESE CIVICS CLASS STUDENTS CHOSE TO SPEND THEIR
TIME THIS EVENING DELIVERING THIS BOOKLET TO YOU.
RESPECTFULLY YOURS,
THE EDITORS

Talking About Independence Day Farmington News, Page 2 Friday, July 4th, 1930
Description
An account of the resource
A Farmington News article talking about Independence Day. This is Page 2 of the Friday, July 4th, 1930 issue.<br /><br />The piece about independence Day reads: <br /><br /><em>JULY FOURTH</em><br /><br /><em><em> The 'News goes to print this week on the eve of the great American holiday. Independence day. July 4th which occurs on Friday. It will be the 154th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and chat ' the spirit of 76”still sur- vives not merely as a tradition but as one of the greatest American achievements, there is plenty of manifest evidence within our na- tional boundaries and all United States possessions Business will be suspended generally and the Ameri- can colors will predominate. While Farming-ton has contemplated no or dered program for the day'’s cele- bration. there will be nothing- lack- log in the spirit of the occasion From the small child up there will an ardent display of American pride If not with a participation the revelry and the enchantment of adding; to the general racket, there will be an ordered preservation of peace and prosperity that has been in preparation for many weeks. The grooming of residential proper- ty and places of business has been in preparation for midsummer and the 4th of July tor many weeks and the 4th of July for many weeks and the accomplishments are impressed upon any and all observers who cure to survey the general aspect with thoughtful consideration. Wherever a piece,of property of whatever na- ture has .an outstanding prominence there have been no reservations in making it presentable to the gaze with cleanliness and features of beauty more or less abundant. Beautiful gardens, green, well- cropped lawns and fresh paint fore- cast the glamour and redolence of a thrifty and well-ordered community The preservation of the citizenry and the property of such a compos- ite structure is among our first re- gards. Especially at such times as the Fourth of July when-the bars of restraint are let down while a great event of universal moment is being celebrated, there is likely to be. with with no intention at lawlessness, a com- mon relaxation toward destruction On such occasions as the Fourth of July, the real patriot, whether youth or adult, is the individual who regards with scrupulous care the rights of others and joins his fellows in the wildest of celebration without abandon In such a spirit of celebration everybody has the sympathy and encouragement of the community Those who use the crowded highways at this season are especially cautioned to avoid colli- sion and destruction to themselves and others. Herein lies one of the greatest elements of danger and it is sincerely hoped that the "News" will have few, if any, local casualties to report after the holiday has passed. To impress the great element of danger that that is abroad at this time, insurance statistics show that more people buy automobile insurance on or prior to this holiday than at any other holiday season of the year. To show that the apprehension is well founded, the insurance com- panies report that for one day more claims are paid than for any other day In the year except Labor day We certainly urge our citizens to </em></em><em>celebrate the Fourth and to Indulge </em><em>in all the reasonable pastimes, but to </em><em>exercise extreme care In the preser-</em><em>vation of their own safety and the </em><em>safety of others. The handling of </em><em>fireworks and explosives should at </em><em>all times be entrusted to mature </em><em>judgment and we sincerely hope </em><em>that wherever children are allowed </em><em>to handle these instruments it </em><em>will be under the supervision of </em><em>their elders. From Thursday at </em><em>midnight until Friday at midnight </em><em>the town will be under extra, police </em><em>surveillance and all lines of law and </em><em>order- will be drawn tight. Traffic </em><em>rules must be observed and extreme </em><em>precaution be taken against fire. </em><em>With' these suggestions In mind, not </em><em>to spoil or detract from anybody's </em><em>good time, but rather to Insure the </em><em>resumption of our peace, prosperity </em><em>and pursuit of -happiness after the </em><em>"Glorious Fourth'* has passed, the </em><em>"News" extends its best wishes for </em><em>every bounty that the holiday may </em><em>afford.</em>

TOWN TALK
by Tom Watman
Pretty soon, the town will b e
gin hearings on the sewerage
project. It's summer time and
it's going to be difficult to get
people enthused about turning out
to meetings but I can think of
about 800,000 good reasons why
all citizens should attend. That's
^800,0001 It Is estimated, by r e
liable sources, that the sewerage
project will cost between $800,000
and one million dollars; about one
fourth to be paid by the taxpayers
of Farmington. Selectmen Inform
us that the Budget Committee is
not envolved in passing on this
project. However, such a large
expenditure might well b e the fit
topic of an ex-offlclo investiga
tion by that committee, At the time
of the last town meeting a com
mittee was appointed to supervise
this project, Wehope that the mem
bers of that committee will have
comments to make at the coming
meetings.
The
expenditure of
$800,000 should provoke quite a
few comments.
Over the last few weeks we've
received several comments on j u
venile delinquency. Seems that two
benches at the Babe Ruth baseball
park were broken recently, a p
parently by Juveniles, While It's
really a shame for such things to
occur It would really seem that the
local teenagers a r e basically well
behaved. Like everywhere else,
their Is a small minority that just
can't seem to stay out of trouble.
In cases like this the best a p
proach would b e for parents to
solve the problem before it b e
gins. Contrary to the views of
some modem psychologists a well
timed and placed strap can have a
very beneficial effect, In many
cases.
m situations where home treat
ment doesn't solve the problem it
might be a good procedure to
hand out more beneficial punish
ments to local offenders.The local
municipal court has done so in the
past; but only on a limited basis.
LetB get tough with the few lncorrigibles left in town. Lets put
them to work cleaning up the
parks, painting street signs, and
other projects of benefit to the
town. If their caught breaking up
the benches at the ball park, why
not put them to work building
some benches to replace them?
The
establishment
of such a
system would possibly cut down
the number of habitual offenders.
Systems such as this have been
used successfully In other com
munities and as such are not
mere passing novelties. In any
event, three cheers for the ma
jority of our youth who habitually
do the right thing and perhaps a
word of warning for those who In
sist on disregarding the rights of
others.
