This is to the preachers. They
get a chance more than anyone
else to talk to the people face
to face.
| want you to do me, yourself,
and all others one favor. The
gospel was left in your hands,
and you are responsible for the
people getting the right thing
and doing the right thing. Now
it is right for them to pay their
poll tax, so that they may exer-
else their right to vote, but they
may not know about it as well
as they know about heaven,
angels, sweet milk and honey,
golden slippers, robe, sea of glass,
and crown. You have got
that distilled into them, but all
that pay comes after death.
A little more in the living line
would be a great help to us. Such
as Education, Finance, Health,
and Living in Fairness and Unity
with Fellow Beings. Let us do
all things right as near as poss-
ible Speak out when it is time
to speak and not behind closed
doors. I'll tell you the truth:
if YOU have to front for us in the
other world, and we have to be
thinking about how you had two
faces here, we may be afraid to
risk you IN such a particular
place as everlasting life or CON
tinued damnation, Think it over
and you may consider what
leaves a singing ship. You know
who rings the bell. You know
who prays for a lot of fine
clothes, a new car, a house with
running water rent paid, and
sleeping late in the morning
These couldn't be what YOU are
afraid of losing if you don't hide
your hands. Now get this
straieht,-the gospel was left
with you, and through it you are
to live. But II is left to the
deacons to keep up, see after the
church make the fires. sweep up
the floors, and get their pay
after death,
1t is the same way with the
members who pay money to the
preacher for use in this life,
and their pay day comes after
deaht But | will say this-if
the map Of divine journey is the
right one and we have to build
according to the blue print you
have designed we may make il.
but we will never look the same.
Tell them about their poll taxes.
We are depending on you.

What a racket

What a racket
1t was racket based on Con
nectlons', on pull, on under
cover lobbies. 1t gave those
without any special know how"
the wherewithal to produce-and
to pile riches on top of riches,
Tor those persons were the
spokesman of our monopolies
and near-monopolieS.
But the irony of it all is this.
These are the very same persons
and corporations that are op-
posed to governmental aid to
promote our general social well
fare. They, of all people, argue
that unemployment insurance, or
the O. p. A., as the case my be,
violates the spirit of free enter
prise.

But some few persons made a
deal like that.
They didn't get locked up. In
stead, they became patriotic
business men, opponents of free
enterprise-and they let every
one know of their imaginary
virtues with reams of advertising

paper that schoolkids were
securing their neighborhoods

 Krogman said the withdrawal is due. to the fact that several players are out, due to illness at present and that practically all members of the team will be discharged from the Army and go out between February 5 and 10.
 Kessenick was taken to St. Ann's Hospital this morning with a severe case of tonsilitis. Several other players are suffering from colds. and Rrogman has been advised by his doctor not to play ball any more this season
 Krogman was withdrawn from the Subport-Juneau High games more than week ago when he was injured in a fast break play on the court.
 During their career in the league this season, the Supporters have played some of the best basketball displayed by any of the teams. Their withdrawal at this time will leave the Douglas Bremen as Ju- neau Highs nearest rival for League Championship.
