larger share of government pur-

This usually means large cor

in the small business programs

Local Education

The recent scientific accomplishments of
the Russians have shocked Americans in
Noble county and everywhere else in the
country to the need of a reappraiSal of our
educational standards.
Each community has its own respon-
sibility in that direction, the President has
indicated Each has to see that its children
get the best possible instruction and that
all the superior ones be enabled and encour-
aged to go to college.
The Russian sputnik, with its implied
threat to our way of life, is the elimination
of long and arduous scientific work. Accord
ing to Marion B. Folsom, Secretary Of
Health Education and Welfare, the Soviet
decided many years ago that it could gain
world supremacy through technology and
it proceeded full-blast in that direction. The
result is that in many fields Russian scien-
lists are preeminent today, he declared
In this country it has caused an awaken
ing to the need for education of a more
serious and profound type There is much
talk, especially, of the failure of many
schools to require adequate mathematics
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1957-11-28

The mmunal society,
where all things, including
both land and produce, were
owned by the community, had
been eliminated. In this year
of 1923 the barren wilderness
began to bloom with the in
centives Of private property
and private enterprise. Each
family held its OWN land, to
develop as the family might
decide.
So spectacularly successful
had been this revolutionary
transition from the old world
tyranny of common owner
ship" to the principle Of "pri-
vate enterprise" that Captain
John Smith wrote of the mir
acle in these words:
when our people were fed
out of the common store and
laboured Jointly together, gla /
was he who could slip from h
labour, or slumber over his
taske. The most honest among
them would hardly take so
much true paines in a week
as now for themselves they
will doe in a day. Neither
cared they for the increase,
presuming that howsoever the
harvest prospered, the general
store must maintain them, so
that we reaped not SO much
Corne from the labours of

neighbors into contributing to the cause
they never solicit in stores and factories
they recoil from payroll deduction advocates
no one rings doorbell or solcts by tele-
phone They trust implicitly in simple letter
of appeal for financial support, letter
received and answered in private a con-
tribution made and never divulged. This
trust springs from the experience that funds

munity itself will earn the support of their
fellows. In 81 years this faith in others has
been rewarded annually.
They are the people distinguished by a
little extra faith--in others-in themselves.
The 51st Christmas Seal Sale now underway
will again justify that faith.

THANKSGIVING 1623-1957
BY Willis Il. Stone

THANKSGIVING DAY is
unique and strictly American.
No holiday qui'e like it is to be
found in any other part Of the
world.
1t is a religious holiday, yet
it is not of any church, creed,
sect or denomination. 1t is
day when, by mutual desire,
a whole people lift their hearts
in thanksgiving to their God
for all the blessings of free
dom.
1t is national holiday, yet
it commentaries no battle,
celebrates no victory, nor does
it honor any national hero.
The first Thanksgiving Day
of record was proclaimed by
Governor Bradford in Novem-
Der, 1921, to commemorate the
first anniversary Of the ar
rival of the Pilgrims in the
new world. The communal
system under which they lived
had provided barely enough
for survival, yet they set aside
day of Thanksgiving.
1t was the third Thanksgiv-
ing Day-procla!med in Nov
ember Of 1623-that the true
spirit and meaning of Thanks
giving as we know it, was
born.
