R. E. Foley, state registrar of mo

ceptable for motorists to touch-ur
their old license plates with the

Used by the State"
This announcement came in

Although it will be acceptable
to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles
for motorists to touch-up theil

law that if any state license plate
is defaced or changed in color, the
owner will be subject to a heavy
fine and a possible Jail sentence
This year Ohio converted to us

LIFE
at It's Best
HOW LARGE IS YOUR HEART!

HOW LARGE 10 fOOk HEAk !!
In John DrinkWater's great play
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, there is a
memorable scene in which Mrs,
Lincoln is giving tea party. One
of the guests a certain Mrs. Blow,
whose type is rather common,
comes up to Lincoln with the
greeting, "And is there any start
ling news, Mr.. President"
Madam" replies the President
with sad smile which q ickly
disappears, "every morning when
I wake up and say to myself, "a
hundred, two hundred or thous-
and Of my countrymen will be
killed today. l find it very start
ling"
ooh, yes, of course, to be sure,
but l mean, is there any good
neWS?"
eyes" says the President,
'There is news of victory. They
lost twenty-seven hundred men;
we lost eight hundred"
How splendid" cries Mrs.
Blow.
"Thirty-five hundred!" echoes
the President.
ooh, but you mustn't talk like
that, Mr.. President. There were
only eight hundred that mattered" :"
Lincoln can no longer contain
his disgust. Madam" says he,
"The world is larger than your
heart!'
That ought to give us something
to think about in these days when
we are all living under the terri
fic tension of a war far more
destructive than that through
which Lincoln passed. We cannot
help rejoicing when our armies
win victory. We hope and pray
that each battle won at so great
a cost may speed the day Of
peace on earth and good will
among men,"
But it is easy to lose sight Of
the terrific cost in human lives
at which this war is being Waged
We may hate the evil against
which we fight, but we dare not
let ourselves fall into hating the
| misguided or helpless individuals
who have been victimized by it
Lincoln's heart was torn by the
| agony and suffering on both sides
in that war which he felt was
| necessary. Yet with rare realism
| and foresightedness, he saw that
even war for freedom must be
fought with malice toward none
and with charity for all"
If we really want to build
the world of free brothers that
we say we are fighting for, our
hearts must be big enough to love
understand, forgive and cooperate
with all men everywhere. Let
Drinkwater's phrase haunt us;
1.-THE world is larger than your
heart, Madam!"

LeftuveES

BY JACK PARK

These are truly leftovers this
week, which were left out last
week ). We tip the chapeau to
fine Photographic team who did
a swell job for us on the Red
Cross Bloodmobile pictures {.
Stan Hallick took them, and al
though Willis Misch was in Flor
ida, the negatives were proceSsed
and finished in Misch's studio
laboratory and the service was
really fast
-O-o-o-
Willard Harger, 18, of 305 West
Third Street, did a unique and
uncomfortable disappearing act
several days ago, when he stepped
on loose sewer cover and slip
ped into an opening up to his
arms. He escaped what could
have been serious injury.
-o-O-O--
Many route 2 commuters hailed
the operation of automatic gates
at Three Mile Crossing, which
started early last week. Au-
thorities have lost all track of the
number of accidents which have
taken place at that point. Latest
tangle with train was that Of
James M. BlevinS, who ran into a
moving New York Central train,
and bounced clear across the road
into ditch.
-O-O-O-
The way Port Clinton turned
out to offer their blood last week
was a grand demonstration of COM
munity cooperation in the scheme
of fellowship. We cannot con-
ceive any greater gift to the kim
dredship of mankind han the
giving of that which is precious
to us-our blood.
Port Clinton exempll:ied the
remarkable performance of Oak
Harbor several weeks ago, when
eager donors had to be turned
away because the Bloodmobile
could not take them. Port Clinton
exceeded Oak Harbor by only one
donor. 1t was very bad winter
day when the Oak Harbor dona-
ton was made. Roads were prac-
tically impossible, not to mention
impossible, and there were prac-
tically no telephone cemmunica-
tions received by the Red Cross
on combinations by donors, be-
cause many lived in the country
and had meager access 10 teie-
phones. But the word went around
and when they poured in by
over two hundred, Red Cross
workers were amazed. The work
ers are used to specific confir-
nation by letter or phone on every
card sent out. They had received
only a handful at the deadline.
SO when the long que OF donors
started forming early III the day,
nobody could understand how these
people, coming from great dis
tances in the snowbound recesses
of western Ottawa county, had
knowledge of the blood-letting day
and location.
It was best explained, perhaps
by an elderly retired Elmore far.
mer, who wanted to give, if his
blood was acceptable. He had
come long way, was cold, chilled
and most unhappy, and wher
asked why he came out on such
| terrible day, he told nurse
II would be pretty ashamed moi
