THE SHIP OF STATE
BY RUTH TAYLOR

Many centuries ago a Chinese phil
osopher wrote Of government: The
king is the boat; the common people
are the water. The water can support
the boat, or capsize it."
What was said then of ancient
China is true today Of our modcrl
democracy. Our governments requires
the support Of all the people. or it
sinks. Government does not mean
particular leaders-but it does mean
the republican form of rule and the
democratic way Of life.
We elected our own leaders after
free and open discussion. We, through
them, have made our own laws We
through them, have delegated certain
powers to our Chief Executive. Now
it is up to US to support the boat of
our own building-to abide willingly
and cheerfully by the laws we had a
part in making, and to carry our full
share of the load.
