"In those days, as now were many who
had been disabled by the struggle. Their
ability to compete in life had been reduced
by wounds suffered in battle. Even as a boy
| remember hearing how it seemed they
were thought of only on such days as
Memorial Day, when orators fervent in
their patriotism, remembered, if only for a
day, the long continuing sacrifice made not
by those who had died in battle but by the
disabled who were to live for many years
following the great struggle.
"The heroes of World War | and World
War II and the Korean War are, of course,
men who, with no concern for themselves,
gave their lives that freedom might live.
We can never do them adequate honor. And,
we must never forget them. They died in
their young life, forsaking the opportunities
Of the years that the rest of us might live
and develop our highest hopes and dreams
However, there are other living heroes
who deprived themselves of either physical
emotional or mental health for us and for
their fellow countrymen. 1t would be as
wrong for us to neglect or forget them as
their buddies who today sleep on some
Pacific Island or in a European cemetery.
A hero dead or hero manned and disabled
are both due our equal gratitude and our
unceaSing devotion.
"We must never forget that the most
effective way of honoring those who have
died is to remember the living disabled, that
their lives may be rich and full. They are
a great asset to our country as the living
embodiment of devotion to freedom. A coun-
try is recreant indeed which does not ever
lastingly keep alive grateful appreciation to
those who suffered disability to perpetuate
everything that we Americans hold dear.
There could be no better time than on
Memorial Day to resolve that we shall CRATE
fully support the honored men and women
who have suffered disability from the wars
of the United States"

Half-Open Skies

The Russians have again de-
monstrated their igenious talents
in a response to President Eisen-
hoWer's open skies inspection
proposal. In that proposal, the
President had suggested that we
permit Russia to inspect our ma
ton from the air in return for
similar permission to inspect
military installations in Russia.
This proposal was made to as
sure that any disarmament
agreement would be adhered to
by all nations.
Now the Kremlin has suggest
ed that since Russia is SO much
bigger than the United States
that inspection should be on a
mile for mile basis. Such a clever
response is to be expected. But,

ing victim to such scheme. We
would be exposing our entire
country to scrutiny while Russia

tegic portions of its nation might

Congress last year is beginning

KILLING THE GOOSE
BY DIR. Alfred p. Haake

In one of our favorite fables
there was a goose which laid
golden eggs. A greedy and
foolish man who owned that
goose, one day, killed the
goose in order TO get quickly
at the gold inside of the
goose, instead OF having to wait
for the eggs one by one as they
were laid.
Alas, there was no gold mine
inside the goose. And now the
goose was dead and would lay
no more golden eggs. The
modest wealth tina. came from
those eggs now came to an
abrupt and decisive end.
But the moral of the story
came down to us, perhaps even
more valuable than the golden
eggs once laid by the goose.
That is if we heed the maxim:
Don't kill the goose that lays
the golden eggs"
We Americans have the
highest standard of living in
the world, and the most widely
distributed among our people.
Here is another goose which
lays the eggs of well-being and
better living for US all, infini-
tely more productive than was
ever any tabled goose that laid

Commerce bulletin to members offers a set
of rules" which, we believe deserves far
wider distribution

tabula and the Area" were included by Man
ager A. c. Patterson as food for thought"
They do just that. They pinpoint nine basic
flaws in community thinking.
Here are the Chambers nine rules:
Il. Don't pay taxes. Let the other fellow
pay his Vote against taxes. Then fuss be-
cause the streets, service facilities, etc, are
not kept up.
"2. Never attend any of the meetings
called for the good of the city. If you do,
don't have anything to say. Wait until you
get outside and then cuss those who made
the suggestions Find fault with everything
that is done.
90. Get all the city will give you and
don't give anything in return. Write letters
to the editor of the paper, demanding more
for your tax money.
"a. Never accept an office. It's easier to
criticize than to do things. Accuse anybody
who serves in an elected office of being a
publicity seeker (or crook.
"5 Don't do any more than you have to.
When others willingly and unselfishly give
their time to make a town better, howl
because the town is run by clique.

One lady told us her arm used
to be doubled up like jack
knife because her muscles were
stiff and sore with rheumatic
pain. She said people would stare
at her. Finally she got RUGON
and now says she can raise her
arm above her head and the aw-
full pain and stiffness is gone en-
tirely.
RUGON is helping so many
victims of rheumatism and neur-
tits because this NEW Liquid
Formula contains Three Wonder

capsule. RUGON goes to the very
source of pain almost at once and
costs but a few cents day to
take. So don't go on suffering.

and becoming too unpopular,
l want to say that my atti-

ONCE experiences. I've seen

that when an Office party Is

Here are a few hints that
may save the day for those
who have to go: Be friendly,
but don't call anyone by his
or her first name unless it's
your usual custom: take as
few drinks as possible. don't
spend too much time in con-
versation with anyone OF the
opposite sex: and make your
getaway as quickly as pos
