In any event, the individual has small COM
mand over his own destinies. The state
makes the important decisions and provides
the directions.
Can free people rival and surpass the
achievements of such a syStem-and still
keep their freedom, their traditions, and
their national heart and soul?
History tells us that we can. Time and
time again the forces of freedom have
defeated the forces of tyranny.
But the exact opposite also has occurred.
Great civilizations have fallen to barbarian
hordes This has happened when those
civilizations grew soft and sleek, contented
and slack, immersed in luxury and degen-
Grated in character. 1t has happened when
faith was lost in principles and institutions
that led to greatness-to be replaced by
overwhelming cynicism. It has happened
in sum, when fortitude did not come out of
adVersity, when defeatism prevailed, and
citizens turned to the weeping walls.
We do not yet know the extent of the
efforts that will be needed to build and to
maintain the strength necessary for survival
But we do know that they will be great, and
future events may demonstrate that they
will be greater than anyone realizes now.
The burden will fall upon all--on industry,
labor, government. Restraint and wisdom
will be needed by all-the national interest
must come ahead of self-interest. But no one
should look on this burden with distaste or
fear The times have brought challenge and
opportunity-and a people which value free
dom and honor will rise voluntarily and in
full willingness to meet the challenge and
exploit the opportunity.
Here another thing that was said many
centuries ago is perfectly in keeping. Shake
speare put it into the mouth of one of his
characters: Courage mounteth with occas-
ion" The occasion is at hand. We must now
prove our courage.

Political Matters and Otherwise
BY JESS S. HARRIS

Within twenty-four hours fol-
lowing the recent passing of New
Years Day a story ''broke" all
over the state of Ohio that really
concerned only the Republican
party thereof. The story was to
the effect that former United
States Senator George H. Bend
er, of Cleveland, had on Thurs
day afternoon telephoned from
his home town to Secretary of
State Ted w. Brown at Columbus
that he desired political petitions
for circulation for Republican
nomination in Ohio at the May,
1858, primary election.
However, the applicant did not
state to what office he aspired
and this gave immediate rise to
the report that it would be to
displace Governor c. William
O'Neill. The two men have not
been on the friendliest of terms
since the 1856 election and this
may be the reason for Bender's
opposition to the denomination
and reelection of Bill" as Ohio'S

PUBLIC ENEMY ONE
Ey DIR. Alfred 7. Haake

Initiation, sometimes called
the nations number one prob
lem or enemy, is undoubtedly
one of the most important and
difficult of our problems. Its
Importance rises out Of the
many directions and ways in
which initiation affects our life,
its serious consequences on our
national well-being. It is an
insidious and d erous
enemy.
1t is difficult because so few
of us really understand what
it is and how it works. For
many people, it is possible
actually to advocate initiation
under the very guise of fight
ing against it.
Some think OF it as merely
''high-prices and think we
need only to control prices in
order to control initiation.
Others think of it as the issue
of paper money by govern
ment. Still others see it when
the u. S. Treasury Depart
ment borrows or prints money
to purchase bonds or to pur-
chase goods for government
use. Some blame the stock

market, speculative rising
prices of stocks engendered by
easy loans from banks. There
is an element of truth in each,
as we'll as in some others, but
not the total answer.
In simple terms, initiation is
the expansion of money or
credit, or both, an increase of
money in circulation in greater
proportion than increased pro-
duction Of goods and services
which can be purchased with
the money.
Two principal ways are, to
raise wages, and consequently
prices, without first increasing
proportionately the quantity Of
goods made available for pur-
chase; or for the government
to pump money into circula-
ton through borrowing OF
printing liIOIlSy.
Right now, the principal
source Of initiation is the rails
ing Of wages without first in
creasing production in proper
tion to the higher wages. And
that means higher prices.

Imitation" if the reader will
imagine two huge piles. One
is marked money" The other
is marked goods and services
The total Of each pile will eX-
change for the total Of the
other rile. That is, all the
money exchanges for all the
goods and services. We can
raise either pile, without in
flation or deflation, provided
we raise the other in the same
proportion. We can lower eth
er, without deflation or in
flation, if we lower the other
in the same proportion.
An increase in the pile OF
goods and services, relative tc
population, spells higher stand,
ards of living, provided the
/ pile Of money maintains the
same proportion. A decrease
in the pile Of goods and ser
vices, relative to population
means d lower standard of liv
ing, no matter what happen
to the money.

Folk Lore Tales Of Olive, Ohio
By A. WADE WELLS

A Well-known native of Olive
is Cliff Mckee, nicknamed 'Didd'
and Red, formerly a popular
"tonSorial artist" with wide ac-
quaintance among old and young,
now retired and living in Cald-
we'll
Cliffs ancestors were among
the first and most prosperous pio-
neer settlers. Originally the Nc
KEGS owned most of the land
which was later cut into town
lots forming the Village of Olive
as we'll as much of the adjoin-
ing farmland. 1t is recorded in
history that originally all the
Land now comprising the Village
Of Caldwell was the property of
Cliff McKee's mothers family,
owned the Caldwell except that
land which was owned by the
McKees themselves. His ances-
tors progressed from primitive
log cabins to the construction of
a large tWo-story brick home
stead on the main street of Olive
which fronted a flourishing farm
of more than 100 acres with one
of the largest barns in Noble
County, surrounded by farm out
buildings which made it appear
as a small village in itself.
This Mckee Farm was trad
ing post for farm implements and
wool buying. 1t handled the very
first Mccormick moving ma
chimes and reapers. In those days
wool buying was "big business
and almost every landowner
raised sheep and wool as they
brought ready cash.

He specialized in foX-running a

of his hounds were well known

the best coon dogs in that sectiol

officials say, but during the last year it has
been necessary to spend total of $2l, 100000
in March of Dimes funds on the care and
rehabilitation of patients. The patients num-
bered $1,000, of whom $4,000 were victims
of old attacks.
Since most of this cost is in the form
of continuing care for patients stricken in
preceding years, the obligation will continue
next year with very little letup.
Although polio cases have been very
few in Noble county, local residents are
expected to help care for those less fortunate
in neighboring counties and throughout the
nation
1t is for this reason, Director Ferrell
said, that every effort will be made in Noble
county this month to raise as much money
as possible to be turned over to the state
and national organization.
Detailed plans as to the Mothers porch
light parade in this and other communities
in the county will be announced at later
date but most of them will probably be
held on Thursday evening, Jan. 30.

We've Got Work ID DO

More than three hundred years ago the
great Francis Bacon wrote: THE virtue of
prosperity is temperance; the virtue of
adversely is fortitude; which in morals is
the more heroical virtue"
A few weeks ago the Vice President of
the United States held press conference,
directly following the failure of this coun-
try's first attempt at launching an earth
satellite. Mr.. Nixon said: Sure we failed.
We have before and we will again. But we
need to keep our sense of proportion We
haven't overnight lost our scientific know
how, our ability to get things done e. Let's
get away from our weeping walls and act
like Americans We've got work to do. Let's
get on with it like Americans"
There is great gulf of time and Ian
guage between these two quotations. But
both of them stem from the same attitude
the same outlook on life and the demands
of life
Some Americans met the Russian scen-
tific successes in ostrich-style-by trying
to ignore them or by deprecating them.
Some, at the other extreme, reacted with
panic and deSpair-an all-is-lost attitude.
They showed themselves lacking in "the
virtue of adversely" of which Francis Bacon
wrote. Or they went to the weeping walls"
of which Richard Nixon spoke
But these people were very much in
the minority. The great majority of Ameri-
cans fully understand that there is work to
do and we must get on with it.
The problem, then, is how to do it.
Russia has been showing the world
some of the fruits of harsh materialistic
system. Her achievements-and only a fool
will now try to minimize them-have been
brought about by force. The abilities of
people are carefully, efficiently and rigor-
ously channeled into whatever avenues best
serve the purposes of the state. The rewards
for success are often very great; the penali-
ties for failure are often extremely severe

Joe Taxpayer, Johns brother,

When young boy, Cliff own
ed a team of goats and a small
wagon. He travelled all over the
Village and out into the country
side with this outfit, using a goat
on a trademill to operate a but
ter churn and a windmill to sep
crate grass seed from chaff.
In later days, Cliff owned a
number of thoroughbred saddle
and driving horses, along with a
racing sully. He was intrusted
by such horsemen as John Tip
ton, Clay Blake, Judge Gookin
and Taylor Bivins, all ardent
horse-lovers devoted to the rails
ing of thoroughbreds.
Cliff decided to become barb
er. He set up a chair in Henry
Johnson's blacksmith shop ad-
joining the Olive Flour & Grist
Mill. He gave free haircuts to all
the boys for the practice. This
writer was the first brash volun-
teer. Cliff tried a new set OF
clippers for the first time on his
victim and never stopped clipping
until your scribe's hair was peel
ed to the scalp which caused his
head to resemble a newly -shorn
sheep or even more, as bald as

feel certain he was ruined fol

INCOME TAX FACTS
FOR NOBLE COUNTIANS

Must | file a federal income
tax return for 1857?
If you are under IS and had
taxable income of 5000 or more,
or over IS and had taxable in
come of $1,000 or more, you must
file federal income tax return
regardless of whether you owe
tax or not, and it does, not mat
ter whether you are a man,
woman or child; as long as you
are under IS and had taxable
income of at least 5000 or over
IS and had taxable income of
$1,000 or more in 1857, you are
required to file a return by
April Is, 1858.
1t may be that you had income
of less than $500 (or $4,000 and
income tax was withheld from
your paychecks. In this case, you
should file a tax return. 1t will
show that you owe no tax and
will act as a claim for refund
of the withheld tax.
1t is always a good idea to
get these returns in as soon as
possible. The sooner you file
your return, the sooner you have
your refund.
Taxable income is money or
its equivalent in goods or SER
vices you received.
To arrive at taxable income,
gross income is reduced by the
cost of what you sold. For in
stance, if you sold merchandise
for $500 that cost you $1.00
then you have a gross income OF
$500, but your taxable income
would be only $1.00. What you
received for the merchandise
less what it cost you. You would
also deduct any expenses you
had in connection with the sale
