Considerations

There is nothing in our private
natures which automatically en-
titles us to special consideration
until we. ourselves, put it there.
The mere fact that we have
reached certain age or occupy
a certain position, does not. in
itself, entitle us to extra salaams.
Comes Mrs. Jones, frinstance,
aged AZ, and all burned up be-
cause. Mr.. Jones does not show
her the consideration due wife.
But just what consideration is
due a wife?
If she's a cheerful, helpful,
tender and stimulating partner,
she's worth her weight in star
sapphires and entitled 10 bound
less affection and respect. But
the mere fact that she wears
mans ring. bears his name and
allows him to pay her bills, pins
no medals on her.

A Custer Crony" Excerpts

To the Editor:
We are proud of being Cluster
Cronies"!
We wish that Greenbelt had
more Howard Clusters and more
Bob Volckhausens!
Our Cooperatives would thrive
if We had more sincere people at
the helm: if we had more people
who would be constructive and
put In hours of work on the organ
lzatlon of programs and in secur-
ing members to support these or
CARNATIONS.
Custer and Volckhausen are
two people whose records are
above reproach. Custer has work
ed hard on the Cooperator, Green
belt Consumer Service, the Folk
Dancing Group; on the Health
Association Board he has done an
irreproachable job.
Volckhausen's record is not less
spectacular when judged from the
standpoint of value to the COM
munity. He too has worked hard
on the Cooperator, and G. C. S.;
he was treasurer of the Home
Owners before he was employed
as their Executive Secretary and
since George Warner left the
Health Association Treasurership
vacant, he has done a good job
there. Now he, too, has taken the
only possible course of action
open to a director of a coopera-
tive Health Association.
To make better Greenbelt we
hope we can find more "Custer
Cronies."

To the Editor:

Some Of US may have wondered
when planning the recent day set
aside for soldiers from Fort
Meade if these boys would enjoy
their brief stay here and if they
would appreciate what We tried to
do for them.
AS an indication that they did
we would like to share with others
the letter quoted here which we
received from one of the young
Southern boys, for whom we con-
slider it a privilege to have enter
tanned that day. We feel that this
letter is probably typical of the
feeling of most of the young men
who were here from Fort Meade.
81 reckon that you will be sur
prised to hear from me so soon.
l hope that you all can read this
writing. | never was much of a
writer. We got in all right last
night. We came back sooner than
l though we would. l reckon that
you all think | didn't appreciate
what you all did for me yesterday.
Walking off the way that l did
yesterday evening, not saying
good-by, thank you or anything
else.
81 thought that you all were
coming down to the lake last even
ing and that was the reason l
didn't tell you all the good time
that l had. But had a real good
time, the best weekend tht / had
since l came up here to camp. l
sure do want to thank you for
everything that you all have done
for me. sure did appreciate it.
We went down to the lake and |
looked all over for you all and l
couldn't find you. And it worried
me so much that l laid awake
good part of the night thinking
what sap l had been. Well l
will have to quit this time. l sure
do hope you all will forgive me
this time. Answer soon and let
me know. l will be worried till
you all do. Well good, by"

To the Editor:
You have known me long

Letters to the Editor" but as
man to man. However, l want to
go on record as being 1000 be-
hind the fact-fnding committee
appointed by the Health Associa-
ton.
| also wish to congratulate you
on your splendid editorial of last
week. Believe me, you are right
in there shooting at the target and
hitting it too.
AS for the plan of enlisting the
aid of non-members as well as
members of the Association, in
this controversy, why the limit?
Why not take in all of Prince
Georges County and if that isn't
enough we might eventually get
state referendum on the subject.
Of course, what does it matter if
in the meantime there isn't any
Association?

YOUTH

Youth is not a time of life-it
is state of mind. 1t is. not mat
ter of ripe cheeks, red lips, and
supple knees; it is temper of the
viii. quality of the imagination,
a vigor of the emotions; it is
freshness of the deep springs Of
life. Youth means a Temperament
tai predominance of courage over
timidity, of the appetite for adj
venture over love of ease. This
often exists in a man of so more
than in a boy of 20.
Nobody grows old by merely
living a number Of years; people
grow old only by deserving their
ideals. Years wrinkle the skin, but
to give up enthusiasm wrinkles
the soul. Worry, doubt, self-dis-i
trust, fear and despair-these are
the long, long years that bow the
head and turn the growing spirit
back to dust.
Whether 70 or 16, there is III
every beings heart the love of
wonder, the sweet amazement at
the stars and the starlike things
and thoughts, the undaunted
challenge Of events, the unfailing
childlike appetite for what next,
and the joy and the game of life.
You are as young as your faith,
as old as your doubt; as young as
your self-confdence, as old as
your fear; as young as your hope,
as old as your despair.
In the central place of your
heart there is a wireless station;
so long as it receives messages of
beauty, hope, cheer, courage,
grandeur and power from the
earth, from men and from the
Infinite, so long are you young.
When the wires are all down
and all the central place of your
heart is covered with the SHOWS
of pessimism and the ice of cynic-
ism, then are you grown old in
deed and may God have mercy on
your soul.

More Coop Oil

Ralph K. Davies, Deputy Pc
troleum Coordinator, or in other
words, the assistant oil car, has
written The Cooperative League as
follows: "Your fine spirit of CO.
operation is indeed appreciated
and we are glad to have the re-
port you submitted on Distribu-
ton of Petroleum Products by Co.
operatives in the U. S. This will
be carefully considered here, as
will also your suggestion that ad-
ditional representation should be
accorded cooperatives on our dis
trict committees"
Cooperative organizations which
now do a larger oil and gasoline
business than any other independ-
ent group have only one repre-

our treasury (caused by pipe

pay another) we must elect five
conservative men VINO nave SHOWN

we have known them) that they
respect the value of a dollar
whether it comes from their
country or their neighbor.
Let's all remember this time
that fancy speechmaking doesn't
necessarily make a good council
man, neither does the fact that a
candidate is a member of your
lodge, organization, church or
clubs. Let's forget all that and
vote for the men we know will
honestly and conscientiously run
our little town the way it should
be run and not "shoot the works"
to satisfy the whim of a wife, a
friend, or a pressure group.
