HOGS HOO?

HOO'S the freshman boy with
blonde hair and blue eyes? He
is six feet tall and his birthday
is September %. His favorite
study is English and his hobby
is stamp collecting. His most
enjoyable pastime is listening
to the radio. Gene Kruppa Is
the band leader he likes best,
Football is not only his favorite
sport but he also has two let
tiers in it, one from Hardin
and the other from Sheridan.
The most exciting time of his
life was when playing on the
Hardin football team.
His ideal girl is Give foot two,
eyes of blue" she has blonde
hair. She is said to be known
for her temper and her ability
to throw books. When asked
what he likes best about her
he said, IT think she has "a
pretty good personality, is COM
ical, and knows how to act
when she is out among people,
He believes the most common
fault of girls is the little at
tention they give to their hair,
for hair in neat order is the
characteristic he likes best
about a girl. Blondes are his
pet peeve. Who are they???

Gasless Sundays

The eastern states have been
asked to cut their consumption of
gasoline and oil by one-third, on
account of transportation difficult
ties. A general policy of saving
oil products may become necessary
for many parts, perhaps all of the
country. Gasless Sundays, which
were appointed during the World
war, may become necessary.
What would the people do with
out the Sunday automobile ride?
1t would seem great trial to many
folks who love this tipping over
the road. They can't seem to un-
.derstand how people existed in the
days when Old Dobbin and leg
muscle were the only motive pow
ers.
After banging over the road for
several hundred miles, some peo-
pie aren't. so ready for work Mon
day morning as they were Saturday
night. Perhaps the hour spent
Sunday morning on the restful
cushions of the church pew would
provide a better outlook on the
world than whizzing over the road
at so miles an hour.

Constant Takers

Some humorist has it that a
man was asked if his wife talked
constantly. The reply was that if
he were suddenly stricken deaf
and dumb, it would probably be six
or eight weeks before the lady
would find it out.
The women have the reputation
of talking more than the men, but
in many cases it is not justified.
Some women talk freely because
they have had more social exper-
fence than their husbands, and it is
easier for them to produce small
talk and social nothings.
Some people, both men and wo-
men talk constantly, because they
feel they are wiser than the rest of
the world, so that the world likes
to hear them talk. Their idea is
wrong in many cases. One acquires
wisdom largely by listening, by
questioning, and by reading. The
constant takers don't do enough
of these things.

Parsons At The Front

The Importance of the work per-
formed in war by chaplains is indi-
Gated by the statement that for
every HOO men in the British ex-
peditionary force, there is one
chaplain. Chaplains up to a recent
date have been a part of the estab-
lishment of all European armies,
though we are not informed wheth-
er Adolf Hitler has any place for
them. They have proved Of high
value in American military his
tory.
The success of a soldier as a
fighter depends largely on his state
of mind. That state of mind be-
comes more calm and confident if
he attends religious services. Many
soldiers probably get the jitters
from time to time, as they foresee
dreadful experiences. The inspir-
ing talk of the chaplain at worship,
or in some quiet consultation, has
sent many men back to their shell
ters more reconciled to the hard
side of life.

The Shortage of Silk

For many years silk has been a
symbol for luxury and beauty,
Many women may consider it a
hardship that the government has
declared that all the silk now in
the country will be required for
military needs for two years, so
that silk processing for civilian
use has to stop.
The women and girls Of the
United States acquired a new
charm when it became the fashion
to clothe their legs in silk stock
ings. AS revealed by short skirts,
this hosiery has become one of the
most conspicuous features of their
costumes.
The order affecting manufacture
of such products has caused a
rush at the stores for the silk
stuff. Probably stocks of these
goods will soon be cleared out. But
American technical ingenuity pro-
duces beautiful materials that COM
pete with silk. The female will be
just as alluring as ever, in spite of
all requirements of the defense
program.

France Forgets America?

During the World war the Amer
lean people made great sacrifices
for France. Thousands of Ameri-
can boys sleep under French sod,
where they died in the attempt to
drive out the Germans. Now the
United States government has had
to warn the French rulers against
submitting to the demand of Japan,
that it. be allowed to occupy and
control the French colony of Indo-
China. Such occupation will place
Japanese planes and ships close to
the route over which the United
States gets vital supplies of rubber,
tin, etc.
The so-called government of
France feels it has to .cringe be-
fore the conquering Nazis. The
American people would probably
never have sent an army to France
if they had realized that the French
government in 1941 would be Civ
ing away its empire and strategic
positions.

Laughter in Politics

Some historical expert says thai
King Philip Nv of Spain was seer
to laugh in public only three times
in his life. Looking up the record
of this high mightiness who lived
800 years ago, it appears that he
took but little part in the govern
ment of his country, but was quite
an authority on literature and art.
From which it could be inferred
that he was not very successful in
politics.
The modern politician learns to
do a lot of laughing. He finds that
smiles win more votes than SOL
emnity. If he is constantly warm
ing the people about the awful
things that are going TO happen,
they may get tired of his pessi-
mism. But if he laughs at every
joke his constituents tell him, and
slaps them on the back and tells.
them what good fellows they are,
then they think he is real man
of the people, and are likely to
vote for him.
Milford chronicle., 1941-08-15
Public Interest in Trade

The people are very keenly inter-
ested in the business of buying
merchandise and supplying them
selves with things they want and
need. They are often heard talk
ing about where is the best place to
buy this or that article, and
what they have to pay for certain
things. They have a limited
amount of money to make go a
long way. and they want to know
how to spend that money to the
best advantage.
That gives the advertised store a
tremendous advantage. Every line
of information it gives about goods
and prices is eagerly read. The
offer of popular goods at attractive
prices brings steady stream of
buyers, and the cost of the adver-
tising is paid over and over again
through increased volume of trade.
Milford chronicle., 1941-08-15
Men Over 2S Released

Congress has passed legislation
which would defer selective army
service men 2S years old or older.
If the United States became in
volveds in a shooting war, these
men might be called upon for SER
vice. But as this is mainly a
war of machines rather than men.
it would look as if these older
young men were out Of it for good.
Many men over 2S would fight
just as well as the youngsters, per-
haps more intelligently. Service
for such men creates host of
problems, since the majority of
them are married. Many of these
soldiers may not fight SO well be-
cause of anxiety about their de-
pendents. Early youth produces
the peak of athletic power, and
probably creates the greatest
striking force.
Milford chronicle., 1941-08-15
Horses As Passengers

A news note tells how forest
rangers, when they have to reach
distant horse trails, load their
horses into trailers, and transport
them to the starting point. Even
in Delaware it is a fairly common
sight to see horse perched high
on some truck, and transported to
the place where his services are
needed.
The world probably seems great
ly changed to old Dobbin, as he
stands on a fast-moving vehicle,
and speeds along at 80 or more
miles an hour. What do you sup
pose he thinks about? That he
will stand still on a trailer or
truck, and not jump the fence, sug-
gests that these beasts have ad-
justed themselves to the modern
world. Probably they think it is
far better than pulling a load over
the dusty roads of the old days.
Milford chronicle., 1941-08-15
Voluntary Co-Operation

Some idea of how far voluntary
cooperation can be depended upon
to promote national welfare was
given in the states along the Attain
tic coast, when the gasoline sta
tions were urged to close at z p.
M. so as to save gasoline and oil.
1t was remarked on the Sunday
when the restriction was supposed
to go into effect that the demand
for gasoline was greater than ever.
Where people ordinarily buy about
Eve gallons at time. now the
usual order was "fill 'er up" Some
motorists produced cans which
they ordered filled. This heavy
demand did not help any to save
the petroleum products which are
needed.
1t is not to be supposed that the
residents of these states are less
cooperative than people elsewhere.
They simply represent that COM
mon trait in human nature Of look
ing out first for No. One.
In an ideal state of society, not
many laws would be necessary.
The people would look to their
wisest leaders for guidance. When
some course of action was recon-
rended as necessary for the gen.
eral good, people would voluntarily
comply with this plan. Voluntary
action would solve most of our
problems.
The average automobile owner
in the eastern states who was
asked to save gasoline probably
thought his neighbors would be
filling their tanks, so that to get
his share he needed to stock up.
Which apparently was true.
We need more voluntary coop
Grafton, and not merely on saving
gasoline and 4. oil. Many articles
are going to be scarce before the
war emergency is over. Voluntary
cooperation calls for people to be
cautious how they buy these
things, and thus create scarcities
and higher prices. People should
find little satisfaction in doing
things which operate against the
public welfare.
Milford chronicle., 1941-08-15
Costs of Bad Government

The pitiful troubles into which
the world has fallen have come
about mainly because the world
shows so little capacity for self
government. The people of the
more progressive nations show a
fair degree of intelligence in order
ing their own personal affairs.
But when it comes to organizing
government on any nationwide
scale, or for useful combinations
of nations, they show a most la
mentable ignorance.
Take the troubles of Japan.
Here is probably the most miser-
able people on earth. A good part
of their young men have died in
useless and hopeless war. The
country staggers under its debt,
and the people are weak because
of under feeding. And all because
the people are superstitious; they
think their emperor is a divine
Son of Heaven, and hence they are
unable to resist the government
which rules over them with an iron
hand.
The people of China are sunk in
misery because for many years
they allowed their country to be
torn up by civil war and bandit
{ leaders. They now have a pro-
gressive government, but for lack
of adequate mechanical equipment
they are not yet able to drive out
the invaders that have seized their
best territory, because for centur-
les they failed to develop effective
government.
The people of Germany are al
most as badly off. They are sup
posed TO have one of the best edu-
cational systems in the world. Yet
they are so fooled by remorseless
and treacherous government, that
they allow cruel rulers to plant
their feet on the necks of a great
people.
The misery of many nations
should lead our citizens to feel
that the thing of first importance
IN any country is to train the peo-
pie how to govern themselves, how
to distinguish between falsehood
and truth, and how to pick rulers
who will help them develop their
powers and keep peace with the
world.
Milford chronicle., 1941-08-15
Home Attractions

One way to build up the re-
sources of a community is to pro-
vide such attractive features in the
town life that people have little
desire to go elsewhere, either to
live or for special trips. For in
stance, a town that maintains a
baseball team that compares well
with its competitors, keeps many
people at home by its ability to
put on fast and interesting games.
A town that has good swimming
places, a good golf links, plenty of
tennis courts, attractive picnic
grounds, etc. is going to attract
visitors. It is going to keep its
people contented in their home en-
vironment. With such attractions,
they are not. so often tempted to go
away from home and spend their
money.
Milford chronicle., 1941-08-15
Moral Collapse

The world is now engaged in the
most cruel and ruinous war of his
tory. 1t is burning up its resources
as if these things were just paper
waste. Perhaps the principal rea-
son for this outrageous and stupid
performance is that human charac-
ter has suffered a collapse.
Science has conferred wonderful
benefits on mankind. Men have
taken these benefits, and turned
them into instruments of torture.
The development of human char
acter and conduct is even more
important than scientific progress.
It does very little good to create
some wonderful new invention, pro-
vided that invention is going to be
used principally to plague and de-
stroy human life.
When nations formerly made
treaties, there was a fair prospect
that they would adhere to these
agreements. Now in some coun-
tries they are regarded as just
scraps of waste paper.
If people were brought up with
a strong sense of honor, of the OBJ
legation to keep their agreements
and tell the truth, the nations
would not break treaties as they
have done recently. Also if they
were taught to be just and kind in
dealings with their fellowmen, they
would not tolerate governments
that resort to war.
If we are ever to have peace
full world, the children of all ma
tions need to learn that it is neces-
sary to keep promises and to live
peaceably with neighbors, and to
see that all elements and all ma
tions shall get justice.
1t is customary to say that the
people Of certain nations mean
well, but are misled by their gov
ernments. 1t is more likely that
governments reflect the character
and desires of their people. If GER
tain governments have committed
outrageous acts, low standards OF
justice and honor and kindness
among the people of those lands
are probably the root cause Of
these crimes.
