But the work of the Red Cross
and those who work through it,
he said, brings to us the reali-
zation that man is also made of
nobler qualities than those of
selfishness, greed and personal
advantage"
Citing the sacrifice, neighbor-
illness and love for fellow
humans" exhibited in Red Cross
work, the President said: "It
seems to me that the Red Cross
personif1es as nearly as any or
ganization of which I can think
those great and noble virtues of
man that are the richest
heritage of the Almighty"

The President drew chuckles
when he told how he had been

his staff officers on the work
being conducted in the new
building, adding:
However, I have the preroga-

I seem often to do"
John Clifford Folger, District
chapter chairman, presided at
the ceremony, which was fol-

workshop in the world, was COM

dio and since it is expected to attract the
attention Of youngsters to a greater degree,
we suggest that the patriotic theme, the
story of the growth of our country. be
stressed in more of the plays staged for
television audiences.
Since television plays tend to be pro-
duced in the larger cities. just as plays
which are staged in the city theaters, this
difference is sometimes not appreciated.
The average American, who resides in the
smaller towns or in the country, is a pretty
normal animal. who enjoys a healthy atti-
tude and philosophy. He will appreciate
more TV shows dedicated to the country s
growth, strength and history, and fewer
psychological problem dramas.

of meat in 1858. This estimate is about
three pounds below the average consump-

that while meat supplies this year are
about equal to those in 1852, an increase in
population will make the supply per midi

LIES Hours

Hours are links in the chain of time
Like colored beads on endless thread.
From the unknown they come, and pass
Into the kingdom Of the dead.
They are not Of the same design.
And vary in their shape and hue.
And those that are the fairest come
In our youth when our world is new
Some are red like damask rose
Some match the azure sky above:
But those that pass to ne'er return,
Are born of true and mutual love.
The drab and gloomy linger on
To bring us gloom till they arc done
While those of beauty speed away
Before they seem to have begun.
Some quickly pass, and are forgot
While others stay in memory
Forever like cleaning light
Till time becomes eternity.

Voters are demanding reduc-

that this can be done only by
lowering tariffs and admitting
more foreign goods into our mar

a program would make the u. S.
business interests who elected
him very angry. Such move
might also cause unemployment
