Polio Funds Low;
Drive Called Vital

Depletion of the 1916 epidemic
aid fund of the National Founda-
tion for Infantile Paralysis during
last years polio outbreak makes
the March of Dimes campaign, be-
ginning Wednesday, the most i'm
portant in the organization his
tory, Walter r. Hoefflin, King
County chairman, said last week.
Half of the funds collected will
be kept by the King County Chap
ter for its work here in helping
polio patients. The balance will
be sent to national headquarters
to finance medical research and
to bolster the epidemic-aid fund.
Our community must be pre-
pared for an epidemic that may
strike next summer" Hoefflin said.
"At the same time, the chapter
must continue it's care of the 11S
patients now receiving help"
Charles NJ. Anderson, chairman
of the Seattle March of Dimes,

ed to residents. He urged receiv-
ers to fill the coin containers and
return them to the postman.

ton and its chapters. Headquar-

: By RUTH TAYLOR


Freedom is the right to seek
for ones hearts desire and
let the other man hunt for his"
This trenchant definition Of
freedom is one of those sentences
that stay with you. for, after all,
doesn't 1t express the ideals and
dreams of each and every one Of
us? We are all seekers after our
hearts desire, that vision that is
our guiding star, leading US on
through encouragement, heartache
and despair toward a shining goal
at the rainbow's end.
THE right to SEEK freedom
to move about, to be no mans
slave and no mans master. but
free to search for those things
which we want, home, econ
omic security, a Job In which we
can serve others because we wish
to serve. That is a right forever
laid down to us in the Constitu-
ton. That is a right We will never
abrogate, though we may volun-
tarily lay it aside in times Of
common danger.
Our hearts's desire" the
goal of happiness which is COM
mon to all of us no matter
how we may express 1t. Our
hearts desire is for the better
ment OF ourselves and those we
hold dear. It may be sacrifice
that is our hearts desire, the
priest who went to minister unto
the lepers were SO motivated; it
may be the building of a home
that is our hearts desire = the

conquering of the wilderness was
the fruit of this wish; it may be
greater benefits for our children
our free schools, our great
universities. our high spirited
teachers are the fulfillment Of
that dream. Our hearts desire is
not the same for any of us =
but It Is ours, created out of our
needs, our hope and our ralth -
not by the will of another man.
ITO let the other man hunt
for his" we cannot keep free
dom to ourselves. Freedom is
never a lonely thing, a right OF
one man for himself alone. Spe-
cial privilege is license not liberty.
Freedom by its very nature is
universal. We must never forget
that the master is slave as well
as the man; the jailer as well
as the captive. Our homes are
safe as we respect our eighbor's
home. Our children grow In
strength and learn wisdom as we
make these opportunities free to
all children. We go freely to
worship as we allow our neigh
Dor the same privilege. No church,
regardless of denomination, is
safer than its neighboring cath
edral, church or synagogue. Free
dom is based on the self-respect
of man, and on his corresponding
respect for his neigbor as man.
Freedom is the right to seek
for ones hearts desire and
to let the other man hunt for
his"

Our pastors text was taken from
Acts of Apostles 1:4-8 verses. The
three major events in the stimulation
of the Christian family are birth OF
Christ, Easter Sunday, and Assertion
day. We celebrate Christmas 18th Of
December, with gifts to our loved
ones and friends. Jesus arose from the
dead on Easter Sunday and He as
cended into heaven on Assertion day.
May 18th.
Theme: The aScention OF Jesus any
one who has been killed, buried and
is able to get up out of their grave
has to be the work of God. He had
to prove to the people that He was
the same Jesus by showing them
where he had been nailed in the palm
of His hands and where he was
pierced in the side. He her was able
to teach the disciples things that they
would not listen to before. If we have
confidence and faith in God, we car
go any place and be a lady or a gen.
tleman. If the strength of God is
strong enough within us, it will keeT
us a christian regardless of our en-
vironment. We should not be con
demned for our mistakes, but for moi
trying to do better, because we all are
subject to mistakes. It's a fine thing tc
know that Cod has prepared a place
for us.

than their moneys worth. Little Bobby
Battles after spotting his opponent
Bob Croft fourteen pounds lost a
close decision that easily could have

little Battles rocked his man with

Croft any good. These boys, fly

Reggie Hughes won his champion
ship in the 135 pound class the hard
way by fighting two fights. Hughes
was the only champion to have won
two fights.
Reggie first had to get by Don
Roderbough who put up a rugged
fight. Hughes has a beautiful body
attack with both hands that never fail
to catch the judges eye. Therefore
taking the decision.
In his final fight for the lightweight
championship Reggie had to extend
himself to beat Howe Wahling. Wah-
ling is a lightweight who packs a
mean right hand that keeps his oppo-
nents on the defense at all times.
Hughes crossed him up by carrying
the fight to him constantly. Hughes
had Wahling holding on and one time
almost had him out with a hard right
to the jaw. Results, Hughes takes the
decision and the championship.

The Douglas County Chapter OF the
American Red Gross announced today
that they will again resume the serv-
ice of the location of persons in for
eign countries. The carrying out OF
this location service is not new to
Red Cross chapters. The Red Gross
handled thousands of inquiries during
the war when all postal communica-
tons to enemy and enemy-occupied
countries were closed. This service
has been resumed by the Red Gross
at the request of the Department of
State and the War Department. Miss
Leota G. Norton, Director of Home
Service for the Douglas County Chap
ter, will be in charge Of the work
here. Other chapters in Nebraska will
offer the same service to residents of
their counties. Anyone wishing to 10
cate friends or relatives with whom
they have not been able to communi-
cate through regular channels since
the close of the war, may request help
from the Douglas County Chapter Of
the American Red Gross at 208 South
23rd Street, Omaha. Due to the fact
that the German Red Cross has not as
yet been re-established, there are no
facilities to carry out this service in
Germany.

Theme: Enlist the tongue, words will
fully spoken is like apples of gold pic
lures, of silver words fttingly spoken
soothes the ears of an individual. In a
few words you can talk your neighbor
out of a reputation that it has taken a
lifetime to build up, as the old adage
goes. Some man has been sent to hell
on account of talk. Many happy
homes have been broken on account
of talk. Talk has blasted many a mans
hope. The pen is mightier than the
sword. The tongue is mightier than
both. For every idle word we speak,
we will give account in judgment.
Some say talk is cheap, but it isn't
cheap, because many a soul has been
sent to hell on account of talk.
The power of speech is a great
blessing. Jesus told his disciples, go
we into all the world and preach my
gospel. Talk tells the world that Christ
died for all. We are able to talk to
Jesus in person through prayer.
There is much to be gotten from
