THAT THING CALLED LOVE
BY WILLIAM HENRY HUFF

There Is a wall which hate
Can never penetrate;
\ wall not built of stone.
But separate and alone
II stands above
All mortal tow'rs and heights
And stars and beacon lights;
Yet in the reach of all
Is this eternal wall.
It's name is Love.

oTHER R WISE

The best way to find missing
relatives or friends is to get rich.
About the only way to have
an attentive and sympathetic
listener is to talk to yourself.
War is fight 'em, whip 'em,
feed 'em and finance 'em.
When a person patiently listens
to your troubles, it's usually be-
cause he's darn glad of it.

He was every inch a true

was of him, were devoted to its

He advocated Liberty thruout
the World and many countries
heard his voice, and struggled
hard for their independence,
especially South American, but
have gotten no where to speak
of all up through the ages. He
lived in a most eventful period
and all that he fought for and
believed in, were indeed realised
and put into effect as reward
for his forty years of continual
struggle. We of today have in

acquainted with them, for when
we were young and read of them
in history we did not realize the
Importance of them.
At his death, it was said that
the whole country mourned him
as no other citizen except the
Father of his Country. Kentucky
and Virginia shared equally in
their mourning and grief for
he was their favorite son and
their pride and joy.
His success was due to his
presentation of political problems
through kindness, patience, forti-
tude and honesty and an able
leader, and his work seemed then
to be completed, and fate could
not have selected a happier
moment to remove him from the
troubles of this life.
Glorious as his life was, there
was nothing that became him
like the leaving of it. He was
concious of his approaching end,
and prepared to meet it with all
the resignation and fortitude of
Christian hero. He was all
meekness and gentleness; these
shone round him like a mild,
celestial light, breaking upon him
from another world.

from him.
Even the back-breaking
national debt is now proclaimed
a tremendous investment to
assure the security and we'll
being of our country" So stated
Undersecretary Edward Foley,
speaking for Secretary of the
Treasury Snyder in Chicago on
May IA, 1850.
Think of it! Debt is now a good
thing, not something to be cor
rected. 1t is no longer dreaded
as a sign of impending bank
ruptcy, something for which the
people ought to save, deny them
selves, in order to pay it off. No,
indeed! 1t now is an investment,
and the bigger the debt the
greater our security and we'll
being. What nonsense! Yet, an
undersecretary says SO and many
people have been led to believe
it.
1t would be wiser for the
Federal Reserve Bank to encour-
age government to curb its ex-
travagant non-war expenditures,
take at least ten billion dallars
out of those spendings, stop add
ing to national debt and aggra-
waiting already serious initiation.
A parent does not help his

Henry Clay was born in Han
over county Virginia April IL
1777. He was known as the mill
Boy. His family was poor, there
fore he received limited educa-
ton, but like Lincoln he read
many books and studied law, and
had a remarkable intellect to
grasp facts, melodious voice
which gave him his reputation
as an orator.
He served his country for
forty years, he was tall and COM
manding direct, honest, fearless.
He was prompt in forming his
opinions and once formed, was
decisive. He feared no response

said "be just and honest and you
fear no one. Nothing but success,
and honor could attend such a
character.
His object in politics was not
the almighty dollar, or was it
the prestige, but the position to
fight to strengthen the Union,
and to maintain the Constitution
and the laws of US. of America,
to cherish industry, to protect

Make Life Beautiful -.
BY
JAMES SULLIVAN

We are already into the season
when we think more of our love
for one another. We can show our
love by many ways, but al
Christmas time. We give gifts as
a symbol of our love. 1t isn't
the costly gift that means the
most. 1t is with the spirit OF
love and cheerfulness that we
give it.
1t has been almost 1000 years
since the first gifts were given,
and they were given with love
and thanksgiving for our saviour
was born. This year as never be-
fore let as have a real old
fashioned Christmas. Too often
we tend to forget the real mean
ing of Christmas. In this Atomic
age it is very easy to forget what
we are celebrating.
Why rush and fuss around
worrying and fussing about what
you going to get for every one?
Take it easy and get in the real
Holiday spirit of giving peace on
earth good will toward men
That is really what we want. So
let us keep this in mind as we
celebrate Christ's Birthday. 1t is
a joyous day, a day the world
waited for and as we celebrate
let us pray that we can really
have peace on earth and good
will towards men.
Be thankful for what we have
Have joy for our saviour was
born.

economic activity.

economic activity.
Spending by citizens can have
something to do with higher
prices, due to the natural action
of the law of supply and demand.
But the same forces which en-
able people to buy more could,
if properly directed, result in
greater supply and actually low
er prices. If there were more
saving, more and still better
tools, more efficient labor and
lower costs; if the government
took less taxes out of the. pockets
of every citizen, the supply of
goods and their lowering cost
would satisfy the demands for
them without raising prices.
Why should people not be tenn
perate in their buying? The an
swer is in the government itself.
Pressure against private enter
prise by government grows
stronger daily. Profit is discour-
aged in the first place; taken
away in the second place. Except
for a few extraordinarily eff
cient concerns, the share of pro-
fit out of total income dollar
grows less year by year Even
savings are discouraged by the
initiation which makes your
matured E bonds, with interest
added to the principal, worth less
than they cost ten years ago.
The individual cannot be
blamed for spending his money
when he is told by government
in effect that he need not save
anymore. He is told that govern
ment will provide for his old
age, pay his wages when he is
idle, and even that his taxes will

Savage Dam Made
Ready For Inspection

The Savage River dam was made
ready Tuesday for its semi-final in-
spection by U. 5. Army Engineers Of
ficials, according to Donald f. Math-
er, resident engineer.
Most Of the work on the approx
mately 160-feet high dam, was COM
pleted last November, but workers
have been engaged in cleaning up ac-
tivities.
The final inspection Of the $500 900
project probably will not be made I'M
til workers finish relocating a section
of the Big Savage road near the dam
This work will take about six weeks
if weather is favorable
Bids for the second phase of the
work will be opened March Is in
Washington, d. c. This part of the
project will include concrete work and
four hydraulic Slide gates, according
to Mather
The corps of Engineers hope to
have the dam ready to impound water
by March |, 1851. 1t is expected the
second and last phase will take about
$50 days.
The dam as it stands will help con-
siderably in preventing floods in the
area. Already it holds back heavy
water flow. All water going through
the dam must pass through a pipe.
The pipe only allows a flow if 1900
cubic inches a second, which is below
flood stage
The 1,000-foot wide dam was begun
as a WPA project a number of years
ago to provide employment and to
regulate the flow of the Potomac
river. 1t was abandoned at the out
break of the war. Army engineers
took over in 1913 and a contract
