You cannot pay your
way into heaven, but you
can work your way. The
degree Of capacity for enjoy
ing the beatific vision will de-
pend upon the amount of work
you do in getting ready for
heaven. AS long as you have
to earn your share, be sure
you put enough work into the
project SO you will get a big
share up there.
Working our way to heaven
Of course demands first of
all the state of grace, and
then blending your will with
the will Of God. Some of the
greatest workers are not able
to say many prayers because
they are too i'll to pray. but
they are offering their inabil-
ity through sickness as their
form of prayer. 1t sure is great
to know where you are going
and to realize that you can
pick the spot.
STOP
If they continue making
cars any longer we shall have
to put. overhead doors on the
house and move the family
into the garage.
PRAYERS FOR PEACE
Let's hope that you didn't
retire your rosary at the end
Of last month. If you did, dust
it off again and get down to
work for peace. Your rosary
offered to the Queen of Peace
can do a lot more than most
of our flying diplomats. The
best way to work out our sal
walton is while the world is at
peace, so let's ask that bless
ing for everyone.

League Urges
 Reconstruction of Fish, Game Comm.

CHICAGO, R - The Izaak Walton League of America has urged Alaskans to sre-constitute plans for their fish and wildlife commission to eliminate what the league terms special interest groups.
 In a meeting of the leagues executive board, a reconmenda- ton was adopted asking Alaska to drop plans for assigning seats on the commission to sportsmen, salmon packers and salmon fish ermen.
 The Alaska Statehood Bill as approved by Congress retains fed eral control of fish and wildlife resources until the Secretary of Interior certifies to Congress that Alaska is prepared to manage it's own resources without exploita- ton.
 George F. Jackson, board chair man, said experience in 48 states has shown clear superiority of a non-partisan commission removed from politics and representative of the broad public interest rather than special interest groups ,
 The Izaak Walton League is a national conservation organiza- ton concerned with preservation and maintenance of outdoor rec reation areas.
