for the purpose of providing any

years from now with evidence to
refute any Russian claim that it

Speaking of the Russians Tin

note that they are showing two
old American films, "Mr. Deeds

BETWEEN THE LINES

fortune beating the other fellows
on their nose, we forget the ter
rible and grueling training he had
to undergo.
We see the football star make
his spectacular getaway to the
plaudits Of the rabid thousands;
but it took time and training to
prepare him for his getaway. We
see some great scientist receiving
some great award and it all looks
so easy; but we must not forget
the midnight hours and their toll
and encouragement that too often
logged and dreadful study that at
last wrought such wonders.
This release is written in con-
sideration Of the price our fathers
paid to found this nation. And in
this Thanksgiving season it is
just as we'll that we reappraise
their holy efforts. Bunker Hill and
Gettysburg are always solemn re-
minders of the men who dared and
died that this great nation of ours
might be born and endure.
The liberties they bought with
their blood are being threatened
on every hand and its is going to
take some of the same sacrifices
they made to preserve what they
have transmitted to us. Genera
tons past and generations to come
will hold US responsible for this
sacred trust and the preservation
of this nation is a sacred trust
beyond compare.
How can we preserve our
country without gallant men who
dare and die? How can these men
be supported and encouraged with
out the financial support of the
nation? He can our nation give
financial support without high
taxes? How many of us accept
high taxes as a privilege rather
than as an aggravated curse?

for nothing is easily the most be-
setting sin that afflicts mankind.
There may be here and there a
few exalted spirits who have sub
dued this wicked mania, but the
masses of mankind are held. in
thrall by the magic appeal.
The desire to get something for
nothing doubtless can be traced to
the darksome days of prehistory,
when man was a hunter and pray
ed for his living, much as the sa-
bratoothed tiger any hyena. He
lived upon shrubs and berries he
did not plant; he took in the chase
animals he did not raise.
The thoughtless observer would
say that those we're days when men
got something for nothing; but a
closer inspection would prove that
even in those far off days, man
was paying a price for all he got.
The berries had to be gathered
the wild animals had to be chased
before the kill. This ancient and
primeval man doubtless felt that
he was getting something for
nothing, but in the final analysis
he was just fooling himself, even
as modern man fools himself into
thinking that something may be
had for nothing.
The numbers rackets, the great
gambling institutions, and a thou
sand coy games illustrate how
deep in the fibre of mar is the
desire to get something for moth
ing. Horse-racing will probably
give the best illustration for in
this the gambling is made respect
able and even fashionable.
It is most interesting to sit
through the races of an afternoon
and watch the behavior of the rae
ing fans and habits. They rar
themselves ragged up and down
the steps placing their bets and il
many instances they can be accom-
modated in their seats. "They are
off" says the announcer and the
excitement is on.
There are thrills and spills but
these are incidental; the big thing
is getting something for nothing
What all of the racing fans seen
to forget is that every dollar wor
is a dollar somebody has lost
Even good gamblers have theil
bad days and in the long run thu
average gambler winds up where
he started with little or nothing.
Our prisons are bursting at thu
seams with those who thought tina
something can be had for nothing
Men seem to be utterly incapable
of seeing that every worthwhile
success must be paid for an of
times at a terrible price. When We
see a Joe Louis rise to fame anC
