HUNTERS LAMENT

HORICON, Wis.-This has heen
a topsy turvy hurting season SO
far.
For instance, we've walked
through water above our hip
boots to shoot sharptail and part
ridge; we've had the sky full of
ducks at noon on a bluebird day;
we've had a pheasant pointed and
held in the middle Of a plowed
field, and we've watched fell
low enter a fayorite pheasant
thicket to emerge with two fat
mallards.
Furthermore, we've nailed a
goose from the somewhat unortho-
dox blind of lawn chair in our
front yard, and if you can beat
that, you're welcome.
At any rate, we're far enough
along to size things up and maybe
do a little better in the home
stretch.
There is steady stream of
flight ducks coming into Wiscon-
sins better waters. With we'll
rationed weather, the duck season
should pay off right along Once
again, too, the boys in the blinds
are getting a crack at geese.

THE LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT

Tt is the little things in life that the most It is
the things that do with thought of payment that
rings the bell 1t is the things which do from the good
ness of heart and with complete understanding that
helping others that also counts We expect re-
ward In many instance, noting said about it, and
the public learns of the goodness that dwels in
others
In this world of today of utter confusion
Chaos mSnanagement and what have you it interesting
to learn that Bob Secrest has not lost the touch
which he obtained from his native Noble County. The
following appeared in The Signals Listening Post and
much to explain the popularity of Bob Secres with all the
people in his 18th. district.
Harry l. (Tiger) Flowers former GAINESVILLE resident
living in Martinsburg, W. Va, writes the Listening
Post of incident his trip home the day after Christ
mas He and his wife had spent the holiday in GAINESVILLE
They went by B. and o. and, at station there was
call for volunteers to help push baggage wagon
which loaded casket containing the body of soldier
who had been killed in action.
Several answered the call for help and Flowers
remarked to his wife that of them looked like Bob
SecreSt, the congressman.
AT the next station Bob got on the train turned out
that the train had pulled out while the congressman
helping the baggage man.
Secres paid taxi driver $40 to catch the train at the
next stop.
Flowers noted that is typical example of the
gresSmans unseshness Moreover the election and
the incident Occurred outside this district
And until he reads this, he won't know that news Of
his good turn and missed train had been sent back home

THE DEVILS WEAPONS

Total war, the Communists wage it, is even more
total than many suppose 1t is total not only to it's
physical aspects and the visitation of bombs and bullets
civilian and soldier alike but it is total in its attack
the minds and even the morals of men.
bullet only kills and he escapes at least in
death. The Communists do not merely kill they attack the
hopes the WILL the very inner spirit of people who become
victims partly through their unWngness believe that
other humans capable of utterly un-human behavior
To the Communist, mans soul is much target
his body Devilsh weapons and strategy have been
fashioned specifically to destroy the inner though
he may be permitted to live
The sooner Americans realize this the will they
gain the realistic attitude that essential to survival
the less will be the danger of falling again and again
into Communist traps
We need to realize that the Communists use trckery
lying and the demoralzng effects of fear weapons of
warfare, much guns. We need to become sharply
of the fact that they nsdousy clever at it and
have developed their techniques point of horrible
finement
glimpse of these techniques and the kind of unseen
weapons which confront be found in article
when the Communists Came to Chuang" appearing in
the current issue of The Readers Digest Here
yu facua and rSthand of how the Communists
operate conqueror told by Chinese refugee from
the reds who walked 600 miles to give his report The
article has been checked and rechecked by officials of the
State Department who say this is the most facua
of Communist methods that has come out of China"
1t is document of awful significance. Anyone who
reads it will understand that of the rules codes
principles that peoples the world adhere can be
counted with any safety in dealing with the Com
munsts and that to expect sembance of ordinary
human behavior is dangerous.
More information of this kind needs to be printed. 1t

press upon them the urgency of
the situation which faces the
country. Others point out that if
the defeat and slaughter of
American troops in Korea, the
known intention of the Russian
Soviet to overrun the world
with Communist imperialism
has not already been brought
home to the American people
there is nothing which now can
be said to stir them to defend
the freedoms which as the Presi-
dent said, "are as important to
us as the air we breathe"
If this lame-duck session of
the congress did nothing else,
it's session would have been
worthwhile in the passage of
a measure which closes another
loop-hole in the antitrust laws.
For several years, attempt has
been made to pass this bill
which will prevent any corpo-
ration from merging or mopping
up the material assets of another
company if it is a move toward
monopoly.

Only what we have wrought
into our characters during life

The first duty toward child
rem is to make them happy. If
you have not made them happy,
you have wronged them Bux-

Reversing your treatment of
the man you have wronged is
better than asking his forgiv-

Friction between people slows
up work more than friction in

He that marries for money

Too many people quit looking
for work when they find a job.
The higher men climb, the
longer their working day. Lead

Small opportunities are often
the beginning of great enter
