Wv PACE IL Marc Rose tells the story of Rufus
Jones, 77-year old Quaker. During and after the
last war he directed the relief work of the
American Friends Service Committee in France,
Germany, Austria and Russia. Now he is taking
up the heavy burden of directing relief for dev-
astated Poland.
In talking about his work. Quaker Jones tells
this story: small boy heard that an eclipse was
coming. He announced it to all his friends and
sold tickets for ten cents apiece At the appointed
time all the little boys in the neighborhood came
to his yard gave up their tickets and gazed duti-
fully at sight which could have been seen from
every yard
Quaker Jones doesn't believe in fences If you
have faith in God and love man, he says then
you should let the whole world feel your faith and
love. That's why at II, he is working for relief in
Poland

NLYDE r. MILLER, Director of the Institute for
Propaganda Analysis, suggests that you try this
test for detecting propaganda. When you're in
doubt about the sincerity of something that you
read hear, just ask yourself these three
questions:
l. Who says it?
2 Why?
3. What does he want me to do?
Try it. You'll be surprised, says Mr.. Miller to
see how these three questions will help you screen
the true from the false - and keep your thinking
straight

Tackle That Wins Play
OF Period

Elmer Wedel, fleet wingback
on the Hardin high school foot
ball team saved his team from
defeat by tackling a Harlowton
ball carrier behind the line OF
scrimmage in a game played last
Saturday at Harlowton. Hardin
won by a score of 2 to 0.
The regular game ended in a
scorelesS tie, so according to
Montana play-off rules each
team is allowed five plays from
the fifty yard line and the
team who has the ball further
est in the oposing teams terri
tory wins the game by an auto
matte score of 2 to 0.
Hardin's last play put the ball
six yards into HarloWton terri
tory. On HarloWton's last down
they tried an end run and We
del smeared the ball lugger be-
fore he made a gain.
Throughout the regular game
the two teams battled on even
terms. Each eleven threatened
to score once. Hardin marched
the ball to the five yard line in
the third period, but could not
push it across for a touchdown.
HarloWton'S only threat came in
the final minutes when they
pushed to the locals two yard
stripe.
Friday September 81, Hardin
will play Red Lodge here. This
is the first home game for the
Bulldogs and they are prepar-
ing new plays and defense tao
