Many people never have the
sort of career they want or do
the kind of work they really
want to do. Sometimes this
happens because they do not
know what they want to do early
enough. They become tied down
with obligations and are afraid
to make a change because of
financial uncertainty. It takes
a lot of nerve to switch over at
mid-life.
Then there are others who
knew what they wanted all the
time but did not go after it be-
cause of fear of defeat or lack
of self-conf1dence or because of
reluctance to risk insecurity.
The tenor. Louis Mannard
says that all three of these rea-
sons were stumbling blocks for
him in getting started on a
singing career.
Mr.. Mannard had always
wanted to sing but had never
done anything about it, except
participate in amateur musicals

Why Grow Old?
Better Start Dream Late Than Never Get It Goinq

while in college, where he ma
jored in advertising. After his
discharge from the army he
took job with an advertising
agency. In this position he did
very well. and his singing stints
were fun. but he secretly con-
sidered himself a kind of Walter
NIFTY, privately frustrated while
apparently successful.
Now with Louis Mannard's S
present success it is interesting
to look back to find. out just
how he finally got started. A
late start was unusual. for voice
training is usually begun in the
teens. After his return from the
army he still felt the strong urge
to sing but put himself of by
such thoughts as mo good
teacher would be interested in
my unframed voice" He never
gave the teacher or himself an
opportunity to find out.
He finally got off dead center
because of the attitude of a girl
he knew. She had wanted to
work on a magazine. She never
made it because she never ap-

sang the role Of Canio himself.
This summer he is doing con-
certs all over the summer circuit
and next fall holds many In
teresting possibilities.
The story of this singer carries
a lesson for all Of us. You have
to take the first step toward
what you want to do. Mr..
Mannard says. IF you take the
first step the second will follow
Of itself. Dreams are frustrating
when you do nothing about
them, but even If they don't work
out it is fulfilling to try to work
them out. And even if you put
off putting them into operation,
don't be discouraged by the
time you have wasted. A late
beginning on the right path is
better than no beginning at ALL"

My Two-Bits Worth
BY LEVERNE HAMILTON,
Thompson Falls

What is a Communist? Sounds like
an easy question doesn't it? But in
response to that inquiry by THE PRO-
GRESSIVE Madison, Wise, in the
May issue, 81 different replies gave
practically 81 different or conflicting
definitions. | do not intend to attempt
to add the 3Sth definition to the al
ready confused mess.
1t would begin to seem, from the
widely different definitions given that
no one really knows just what Com
munist or Communism actually are,
and so / think it is high time that we
established some kind of research bur-
eau or scientific foundation to delve
into the subject and come up with a
really accurate definition that us poor
ignorant mortals and the Communlsts
themselves, can readily understand,
for / have heard even professed Com
munists describe Communism in such
a manner that I had grave doubts that
even they knew what it is.
1t has always been my belief that
If a thing will benefit the greatest
percentage of the people we want 1T,
and if it will not benefit majority
then it is bad and we want no part OF
1t. In order to discover whether or not
thing is good or bad we must first

The Hatters Union at New York City
agitated for public schools in 1888.
There was also local agitation as set
out in the comment of Mr.. Billings,
but the impress on the western world
opinion for public schools began with
the Communist Manifesto in 1S4S.+
| think that there were three inva-
sions of North Korea by South Koreans
before the North Koreans attacked.
The evidence is hard to analyze but
one fact is certain. The North Kor-
cans sent delegation to South Korea
to arrange for a union two years be-
fore the war. And the head of this
delegation was assassinated in the
capitol of South Korea.

with President Eisenhower that the
only way we can combat Communism
