Say, why are the girls looking so
sad these days? l think / have the
answer, Korea is calling for all able
bodied men and this is leaving the
poor girls helpless. / just heard that
Anna Marie Montgomery say her
beloved is expected to go any time.
J. D. Rogers is lucky because he
is SO small I don't think the Reds

| wonder why Iris Honere keeps
her face looking rosy, and that world
wide smile. Do you suppose its the

MORE CHALLENGE TO DEMOCRACY

MORE CHALLENGE TO DEMOCRACY
THE RECENT Youth Rally in East Berlin is a stark re-
mlnder to the free peoples of the world that the communist
way OF life is allincluSive and controls each and every facet
OF the existence Of those who come within its influence. 1t
starts with the youth of the satellite nations, and within a short
time molds their thinking to the point where they see, hear,
and act negative. During the two-weeks long Rally over half
a million blue-shirted youth paraded the streets, attended
cultural programs, heard speeches, and shouted persistent
dislike and disdain for the Ubiquitous and decadent ways of
western democracy.
BY NOW IT is known that the church plays no part in
the life Of communist youth, and the reason is simple enough
the church threatens, or SO it seems, the supremacy of the
state. Everyone knows that the trial of Cardinal Menzenty had
no relation whatever to the matters of which His Eminence
was accused. This was one other well planned trial scheme to
make sure that the inhabitants keep securely in mind that the
state and only the state could lay claim to body and soul. The
youth, therefore Of these countries, early learn that church,
home and school can play no part in what would otherwise
be a well rounded life.
BUT IN H Youth Rally in East Berlin, all did not 60
SO well. Thousands Of youth from the eastern zone slipped
across the dividing line, and there saw the wonders of a
"decadent democracy" The shops were filed with goods, peo-
pie ate as they pleased, there was movement, and regimen
taton was non-existent. Perhaps for the first time, many a
surprised yomgSter swallowed his first ice cream soda. Girls
were even more surprised with the west, and dsgruntled with
the austerty and make-beieve of the East. Compared to their
western counterparts, the girls from the east appeared I'm
attractive and colorless. Naturally, for absent were such beau
ty aids as ipstick and powder and rouge, and the like. These
things are part of the @decadent" west, and must not be allow
ed to contaminate the crystal purity Of the communist way Of
life
N MORE serious side, leaders were lamenting the
fact that the, east German youth were behaving much like the
brown-shirted Hitler youth; that there was misdirection, and
that in place Of brotherliness and understanding, hate and
bitterness was being indoctrinated into these youth. Because

HoNoREo BY ASSOCIATION

For distinguished success as a
breeder of Ayrshire dairy cattle.
Roy Lombard & Son, Plain City,
have been presented the Con-
structive Breeder Award by the
Ayrshire Breeders Association.
In order to qualify for this
honor, which is considered the
most coveted prize in dairy cattle
circles, it is necessary for the
herd to excel in production and
type, and in addition, a high per-
centage of the herd must have
been bred and developed by the
owner The herd has been given
an official classification score
of .831, which places it among the
top 109t of the breed on type
characteristics. There were two
members of the herd designated
as Very Good which is the sec
ond highest rating given any
Ayrshire.
On strictly twice-a-day milk
ing schedule, the entire herd of
40 head averaged 1O636 lbs. of
milk. No less than 1000 of the
herd has been bred and owned
by Lombard for at least four
wears.
