A Useful Life

He lived by. the Golden Rule and the little things n
lie that mean much after person has so suddenly been
taken from your midst
So lived Frank Burlingame of Sharon whose entire
life was exempfed daily by the flowers he grew the
floral tributes that he fashioned in memory of others and
the hundreds of other little things that he found time tn

The coroner ruled that he died from skull fracture

Many Of his friends believe however that he suffered
fatal heart attack and dead before the accident Bu

Frank Burllngame was powerful influence in the
community and he found time devote hours to MANY
projects other than his business For IS long years he had
served member of the Noble county Board of Education
and in this capacity had helped shape the course of the
Noble county schools and the hundreds of children who
attend year after year
Perhaps his first love that of Masonry and he lived
full and devoted life to this His was really the
shining light and he lived rich fufment the lessons

THE AMERICAN WAY
ia YnTR HAM


One of the most astonishing
things about the great resur-
gence of do-it-yOurself-itis among
Americans is that so many peo-
pie are so astonished about it.
What really merits establishment
is that such a trend is so long
overdue. That it has finally ar
rived is far more reassuring than
surprising. Coming as it does
after long period when it
almost seemed fashionable for
wives to brag about the helpless
ness of their mates amidst the
labor-saving gadgets of modern
living, this rediscovery of our in
dividual resourcefulneSs sort of
restores ones faith in human
nature.
While the sheer statistics on
the new outburst Of amateur
saving, hammering, painting,
papering and assorted tinkering
are impressive, they like so
many Statistics-hide a lot of
the spirit of the matter among
the facts and figures.
To say that the rising. do-it-
yourself movement has opened
up new market" for more
than $600,000,000 worth of ma
terials and tools annually sounds
impressive. But it doesn't really
tell much of the human part of
~the-stePyy---K44Lhat thsSe-whopping
figures do tell us at least is that
something mighty important is
going on. Some new productive
stimulus seems to have gotten
into people. Just what is ii, and
what does it mean to us as in
dlvlduals- and perhaps to the
national economy2
One easy explanation of the
make-it-rather- -than-buy-it trend
is TO give the credit, or blame, to
the high cost of living. But this
seems to be merely another and
doubtful attempt to explain
everything In terms of dollars. If
saving money is the principal
pressure at work here, then the
do-it-yourself movement should
have flowered far more than it
did IN the great depression of the
thirties. Ironically, that was
more an era of the do-without-it-
yourself if the government
Won't-do-it-for-you movement.
In terms of the thrift or
cost-saving aspects Of this new
phenomenon, it is more likely to
suggest that the shrinking value
of the dollar and the resulting
high costs of goods and services
simply helped trigger off some
thing that was building UP
through many more if not
stronger causes.
II is no doubt true that a good
many people have bought a
piece of "unpainted furniture"

NEWS FROM

BY
REP. JOHN E. HENDERSON
Adjournment Date


congress convenes in the first
part of January of each wear and
continues its work until the
leadership determines that its
task is completed. This year q
few of the important bills
already have been passed
although by standards of past
years, there have been relatively
few major and prolonged dis
agreements.
A brisk wind-up of the session
is promised as most of the other
major issues are about to be
reported out of committee. That
will signal an increase in the
legislative activity to keep pace
with the rising thermometer OF
Washington.
have received many INJURIES
about the possible date for
adjournment. The best guess is
for mid-July or early August.
However, l believe there is much
more work to be done before
this session should be brought
to a close.
Unfinished Business
In the category of unfinished
business are bills to increase
postal employees salaries, to
provide for federal ard -for'-lriglf-
ways, to increase the pay of civil
service workers, appropriations,
federal aid to schools, to extend
the minimum wage, and to in
crease the first-class postage
rate.
Most of these measures will
undoubtedly be brought up for
debate before adjournment. But,
as in every session, some matters
Will be squeezed out in the last
minute rush. Except in cases
where large groups of our people
are in need of immediate bene-
fits in proposed legislation, such
fate in odd numbered years is
not too serious, for the bills can
receive attention the following
year. But if they should fail to
be considered in 1856, that is the
end of them. To receive further
attention new legislation must
be introduced.
Military Reserve Bill
One of the most explosive
issues to come before the House
in recent months was the Ma
tional Reserve Plan proposing a
system under which young men
might elect to serve for six
months in our Armed Forces and
then become a part of a trained
reserve. Unlike most proposals
which come up for debate, this
one was neither passed, rejected,
nor sent back to committee for
