PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: While l was setting down

a long time ambles up to the table,
looks at me wild wonderment, and
then wants to know how Pm git
ting along wells as l do, and l says

that's all for this week.
If you think you are beaten, you
are;
If you think you dare not, you
don't;
If you like to win, but you think
you can't
It's almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost,
For out in the world you'll find
Success begins with fellows will
It's all in the state of mind.
Full many a race is lost
Ere even a race is won
And many coward fails
Ere even his work begun.
Think big, and your deeds will
grow,
Think small and you fall behind
Think that you can and you will
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you are outclassed,
you are;
You've got to think high to rise;
You've got to be sure of yourself
before
You can ever win a prize.
Lies battle doesn't always go
To the stronger or faster man
But sooner or later, the man who
wins
Is the fellow who thinks he can.

Compromise?

And when answer that to ourselves let us remem-

to know that there scarcely crisis through which the
world has passed in recent but what of

by taking firm stand against compromise.
Is it any wonder that the Communists have develop

There can be compromise with evil. Let be
fair to all - but let first be fair to ourselves to
standards and beliefs And let consider what the

You are planting the peoples lives

In field of brains and woe
No shame you are planting in the

You cannot have a decent church
Unless you allow shame to abide
The love Of God will keep the

Where there is shame, we can find
respect
For the Church and all therein
Unless we bring shame back to life
Woe unto our young women and

No need to act Christian today
ITS a life to live for everyone
We have got to live a Christian life
And allow Gods will to be done.
He needs an everyday life for GID
Just a Sunday life won't do
Too much religion in Gods House
With no Christ in your heart is
it you?
The love of money is the root of
all evil
Do you love money or do you not
In Heaven there is eternal rest
And in He'll it is eternal hot.

You have turned you back on the

Now where will be your home?
Good times on this side of life
Yet the end is not so we'll

And the end of your road is He'll.
No shame for Christ Who shed His

Keep Armed
Force Strong,
Says Council

The AFL Executive Council
called on Congress to examine with
great care" Administration pro-
posals to reduce the size of armed
forces, declaring that 1--WE must
continue to maintain our armed
forces in strength sufficient to as
sure the security of our own coun-
try and the free world"
The council expressed its views
on the proposed manpower cuts in
statement on military policies in
which it supported the Administra-
tons request for a four-year ex-
tension of the draft and higher pay
for the career military service.
Two-Year Review
The council supported the Ad-
ministration's military reserve
training program with reserva-
tons:
THAT the number of individ-
uals who could be processed each
year under the new training pro-
gram be spelled out by Congress.
2-That Congress review tn e
new program at the end of two
years. The Administration has
recommended four-year program
The council declared that the
AFL "has always opposed and will
continue to oppose any proposal
that would impose regimented or
militarized training program on our
youth in peacetime. We have to re-
member, however, that the demands
of this atomic age force this Nation
to be prepared at any time to meet
any type of emergency.
Grossly Inadequate
"At the present time, the Ma
TONS military reserve forces are
grossly inadequate by any stand
ard to meet the requirements of a
national emergency. The new pro-
posal offers a way to maintain
these forces at greater strength ano
with more adequate training so that
they can fulfill their assigned role
in our national defense organiza-
ton"
The program would allow men
below 10 to receive six months
training followed by 9a years in
the military reserve. The program
would initially be on a voluntary
basis but if sufficient volunteer:
were not available they could be
drafted. Pay would be limited an
no CT benefits would be available

"that the bulk of the city's new

may not agree indefinitely to
shoulder a local tax burden even
more disproportionate than the
burden it carries today.

a little out from your sides.
Make large circles with your
left leg. Keep your knees stiff

the leg forward-upward and as
close to the floor as possible
on the sideWard downward
swing back to place. Make the
circle large. After circling a
while with the left leg do the
same thing with the right leg.
2. Lie on the floor on your
back with your arms resting
on the floor, extending straight
out from your armpits. Your
palms are toward the floor.
Keep your heels on the floor
as you roll from side to side,
as far in each direction as pos
sible. Cling to the floor with
your finger tips.
3. Lie on the floor on your
back with your arms resting
