.Today-North America;
 Tomorrow The World
By Zelda Lassiter

"Today Germany - tomorrow the World" Correct! That was the slogan of the late and little la mented Adolf Hitler. As far as he was concerned, that was just an other pipe dream. Yet, the essence of this fbigoted and egotistical de sire could be used in this post war world of reconstruction, if we would but transpose this thought to say, ''Today North America - Tomorrow the World"
 That, however, is not meant ir the sense that the United States of America or any other natior should be the despotic ruler of the entire world, for that would be ab solute dictatorship, against which we just fought a costly war.
 In theory, this past war, fough1 ] to preserve for all the peoples o1 the world, life, liberty and the pur suit of happiness in my humble opinion seems not to have beer wholly effective. For these natura rights of all men are constantl! being denied by narrow and eter nally prejudiced members of "Bil boism," who are opponents of thu belief in white supremacy. Thes are the people who refute facts fo the fiction of ; their own shalloy minds.
 Since the cessation of hostilitie people have gone back to the ol refrain "every man for himself.
 Perhaps Rome wasn't built i day, but since the invention o the Atomic Bomb, it is no secre that we can all be blown into tn next world in less than "a day Therefore it is fitting and prope that we take stock of ourselves a a nation.
 Modern scientific inventions an discoveries are even making th world smaller and drawing tn, peoples of the world closer tt gether. All individuals have som, thing to offer to humanity, whet1 ; CT he be white, black, red, yello' or brown. Color doesn't matter. It the person.
 |. Therefore, it is our world-ou1 to. make or break. If we try 1 promote good fellowship and d. mocracy in our own little commul ity "it must follow as the nigl the day" To-day, North Amerit I Tomorrow the World"

REGENT DEATHS


 It is not our custom, nor is it by any special adherence to press for malities, that we dwell at length on the passing of any particular figure or character from our midst. It just so happened that above and beyond the usual obituary an- nouncement there are certain things that we-his friends and ac- uuaintances - are moved to re- call and touch upon with a warm glow. First and last he was always the same guy. At no time - re- gardless of his gradual successful rise and progress in his chosen line of business - did he lose his common touch; always a friendly greeting; ever a hearty, well-met good-fellow for a chummy chat with old and new acquaintances. Yet, he was as busy filling the or ders and requests of his custom CTS as any business man could be. Always the same guy; one of us, no matter whether we were work ing, hunting, fishing or merely changing greetings.
 Yes, he will be missed by both family, friends, and the commun- ity which he served so well. But let none of us miss the shining example of what one, with perser- verance and determination can dc if he so decides.
