Like, for example, wasn't
indicated last Thursday night
on you-know-what network.
Two incidents pointed up
that a memo may be easier
read than done.
Item One: On the circus
show with Jim ArneSs and
Dennis Weaver. a bear riding a
bike ran into his trainer. who
was setting up another bear on
another bike and sent him
Sprawling. The cameras imme-
diately switched away. Not a
word was said then or there
after and viewers didn't get
the answer until the following
day in their newspapers. If
you missed it, the trainer frac-
tured his leg.
This turn-away routine is
not an unfamiliar TV occur
rance as any sports fan knows.
In New York recently, a game
between the Giants and Browns
was almost forfeited to the
latter when unruly fans
stormed on the playing field.
TV studiouSly ignored the dis
turbance and the sportScasterS
droned on, interviewing each
other. Viewers as usual, found
the story in their newspapers
the next day.
What does 1t take for broad
cast newSmen to react-the
disintegration Of a dirigible?
TV. to be sure, should be
mindful Of the sensibilities of
its viewers, particularly chill
dren. But it has a responsibility
to them, as well-an obligation
that tranScends the one the
program owes to its sponsors.
The reality Of the circus is that
behind the tinsel and derring-
do is the hard. painstaking and
often dangerous work Of the
performers. There weren't any
newSmen on the show. alas. but
the least someone could have
done was to announce that the
trainer had been slightly in
jured.
Item Two: Playhouse 80, with
much fanfare, offered a Civil
War drama called The Tun-
nel," based. as producer Fred
Coe wrote US. "on an incident
which occurred near Peters,
burg, Va, during the hard
fought summer of 1864 when
both sides were drawn up tight

with background of the battle.

BACK HOME m SAINT CRoIX

Robbie how does it feel to be back in ST. Croix?'-most
Of my crucian friends ask me upon first seeing me since my
return to the Island after nearly five years absence.
ITS like coming home again. has almost invariably been
my reply. But now that I have.taken time to reflect on my
love for "Old Santa Cruz / realize that the truth Of the mat
ter is, returning to ST. Croix is not like coming home-If is
really coming home againI
II the ordinary sense, home IS usually thought Of as a
place il which one was born andfcr has lived most Of his life.
But if seems TO me that if is not necessary for ones navel

years in 4 particular place for it to be his home.
Nativity and length Of residence separately or together
are not necessary prequisites to laying claim to a place as
ones home. Nativity, like parentage, is the result Of 4 set Of
circumstances over which the beneficiary has absolutely no
control The wit who said that he was born in Chicago to be
near his mother at once indicated the accidental nature
Of where and to whom one is born. The implications being had
he been born elsewhere he would also have been born to
another mother. I am certain that many people, had they been
given the choice, would have selected a different pair Of
parents to be born to- ard even more people would have
chosen aplace to be born in different than that place of their
nativity. But for most people the sentimentality involved in
both parentage and place Of birth usually stand III the way Of

HENRY KAISER'S BROTHER
DIES At POISON

Friedrich W. Kaiser, 81, brother
of Henry Kaiser of Sidney, died
Nov. Is at his home at Poison.
Kaiser was a native of Germany
and came to this country with his
parents when two years old. The
family settled in Blaine county,
Nebraska, where Kaiser grew to
manhood. AS a young man he
moved to Sheridan, Wyo., and in
1912 married Lydia Ann Robinson.
They lived in Wyoming for IL
years before moving to eastern
Montana near Richey where he
farmed until moving to the Flat
head in 1922. Since that time he
had lived in the Ferndale commu-
nifty. Mrs. Kaiser died in March
of this year.
He is survived by four brothers,
August of Casper, Wyo.; Fred of
Ainsworth, Neb.; Adolph of Long
view, Wash, and Henry Kaiser Of
Sidney.
Funeral services we're held at
the Waggener & Campbell Chapel
with the Rev. FIR. Thomas Best of
the Episcopal Church officiating.
Burial was in the Conrad Mem
orial Cemetery.

the wagon would turn them
around, run them back to town
and have a docile team for the
remainder of the week. Unless
that is, the owner - an invet-
crate horse trader, found some
body who'd offer him a good
trade for the team. When Jim
tied the mules in the alley to go
put up orders for the next deliv-
cry, he never knew what he would
find hitched to the wagon when
he came out.
Jim attended school in Hamil-
ton through the 10th grade. That
spring, however, his father suf-
fered business oversees and the
boy was forced to quit school
and go to work. He took a de-
livery job, and in a couple of
months the owner promoted him
to head clerk, at a salary of
$500 per month, plus board and
room. In addition to waiting on
trade, he assisted the son of the
owner with the buying.
After about a year in this store,
Jim went to Kingston where he
and his three older brothers, For
rest, John and Oakle, opened a
dry goods and grocery store
known as "McDonalds." Later, the
youngest brother, D. G., joined
them to make the family group
complete. Although he was chris
tened with just his. fathers mi
tials and no name, D. G.. was
affectionately known to his fam
lily and friends as "Dee." Pre-
viously, John and Oakle had OPP
Grated a general crossroads store
at Bonanza Springs, Mo-, in which
Jim also had an interest.
At Kingston, Jim was respon-
sible for buying all of the gro
ceries and helping buy dry goods
and shoes. 1t was quite a tribute
to his ability that, at the age
of 10, he was offered a job trav-
cling out of ST. Joseph through
northwest Missouri at $500 per
month, plus expenses - big pay
in those days. However, Jim
turned down the offer to remain
in the retail business.

not limited to livestock. He was
actively engaged in helping young
people to improve themselves. Fo1

Guardian Angels" of the School
of the Ozarks, at Point Lookout,
in his native Missouri.
known as the school that runs
on faith" the School of the Ozarks
depends entirely upon contribu-
tons from interested men and wo-
men to pay its $4,000 per day
operating expenses. And, because
of men like Mr.. Mcdonald, it has
grown from a one-room building,
with IS students, in 1907, to a
$500 900 institution, with SO
buildings, 500 acres of farm land,
and all of the services necessary
to make it a self-sufficient COM
munity for 5000 students and their
teachers.
j. M. Mcdonald, Sr., became in
.terested in the School of the
Ozarks in 1925, through Wilk
Hyer, an associate in the J. C.
Penney Company, who is now
president of the schools Board of
Trustees.
Bequeaths Herd TO- Cornell
Mr.. Mcdonald bequeathed the
nucleus of the Mcdonald Farms
herd of 365 head to Cornell
University, Ithaca, N. ", to be
maintained for a longtime breed
ing research program. About 1,700
acres of farmland and all the
equipment were also included in
the bequest. Dean w. 1. Myers,
of the New York State College
of Agriculture, considers the gift
one of the finest ever made to
the college, and at the same
time imposes an obligation to the
dairy industry to continue the
outstanding work in improving
and advancing the breed. 1t is
a tribute to Mr.. McDonald's wis
dom and foresight to make provi-
sion for the continuance of this
work.
Operation of the farms is under
the direction of the Department
Of Animal Husbandry at Cornell,
headed by Prof. Kenneth l..
Turk. X. c. Sly, who has been
the manager of Mcdonald Farms
since the founding in the 30's, is
continuing in that capacity for
Cornell University.

| time he started school, he began
spending his Saturdays at the Of
flee Of his father, then vice-presi-
dent Of the ]. c. Penney Com
pany. Here he heard merchan-
dising discussed at top level, and,
in the sample room next to the
office, he learned what to look
for in quality merchandise.
At the time MI. Mcdonald first
become interested in farming he
was living at New Rochelle, New
York. His older brother, Forrest,
was also interested and they de-
cided to start in New York State.
In 1925, Forrest looked at a num-
ber of farms, and those he select
ed yer southeast of Cortland.
In the spring of 1888, Mr.. Nc
Donald decided that he would
like to own a herd of cattle, poss-
lGuernseys. In the fall of
1888, the new progrom got
under way with the purchase
of 16 head at the Hilltop-Rock-
ingham Sale for $3.50. Included
in this original purchase were
such cows as Green Meadow Lady
Diana, Rockingham May Princess,
Rockingham Ultra Star and Hill
top Que Vive Lassie. Some evil
dence of the soundness of these
selections may still be seen
Through the Lady Diana" and
MAY Princess" families. The pri-
mary purpose behind Mr.. McDon-
AIDS decision to build this new
herd was his desire to breed bet
ter stock for the advancement of
the Guernsey breed, and to supply
better foundation animals for
breeders.
Throughout the years, Mr.. Nc
Donald derived a great deal of
pleasure and satisfaction from
watching the Mcdonald Farm herd
steadily improve. He took genu-
inc pride in showing visitors his
animals, and always kept in close
touch with the herd. In all bust
ness dealings, whether in the mer-
camille or dairy industry, he was
always honest, fair, and held a
high regard for the other fell

to whatever job he undertook and
was never satisfied with medic

period they bought a shoe store at
Marysville, Mo. After operating
them separately for some time,
they moved the shoe stock to
Kingston. In 1902, having out
grown Kingston, a community OF
only a few hundred persons, the
Mcdonald boys moved their store
to Council Grove, Kansas. Two
years later, the brothers traded
this store for a farm in South
west Missouri.
Mr.. Mcdonald credited a great

ton with his brother Oakle. He

OF the merchandise which he
and Oakle bought, Jim remem-
bered particularly a work shoe
made in Seattle, Washington. At
ter discovering this shoe, which
they believed the best made at
that time, they bought almost
all of their work shoes from
this one concern, placing month
ly orders based on an estimate
of the next months sales.
He also recalled favorably a lot
of mems suits which Nh. Penney
shipped from New York. Made of
20-ounce raw edge Melton, the
suits were all wool, yet made up
to sell for $500. Although or
iginally khaki in color, the cloth
had been dyed brown, blue and
dark gray. The suit was too
heavy to sell at many of the Pen
ney stores, but with the cold
rainy weather in C%entralia, the de-
mand there was great - particu-

Lewd Joke

The British people have Just been
subjected to a television hoax roughly
comparable to the panic breeding Mar
tan radio show that Orson Welles broad
cast from New York in 1888. This latest
example of responsibility on the air
waves took the form, over the United
Kingdoms only commercial network. Of
a program in which sepulchral-
announcer declared to his viewing audi
ence that London was at the mercy Of
"a new and terrifying" space vehicle
that might drop a hydrogen bomb on
the city at any moment To make
matters worse, the announcer had the
monumental impertinence to read
statement (entirely fake) purporting to
quote Prime Minister Macmillan as ex-
horting his countrymen to place their
trust in God. The London Times has not
exaggerated in describing the incident
as IAN outrage" and "a lewd joke" How
stupid can some show producers get?
The moral Of the story, for Americans as
we'll as BritonS, would seem to be that
Juvenile minds ought not to be allowed
free and easy access to radio and TV
channels.

Draft Extension

The 90-to-1 vote in the Senate for
a four-year extension Of the military
draft law is revealing commentary on
the times in which we live.
This virtually unanimous vote should
not be taken to mean that the draft Is
working well or that it is the ideal way
of obtaining the military forces we need.
There is good reason to believe that
well-paid volunteer force would serve
our needs better The difflculty is that
without the draft, or the threat Of being
drafted, there would not be enough vol
unteers to maintain our armed services
at their strength level Of approximately
2.5 million men.
OF course, other factors entered into
the Senate vote. A Democratic Congress
which is attacking what it calls the
inadequacy of the Presidents defense
program could hardly afford to abandon
or weaken the draft. The psychological
effect of such action in the Berlin crisis
also was factor. But the basic expla-
nation of why 80 Senators Senator
LANCER of North Dakota has consistently
voted against it) voted for the draft
extension In Notwithstanding that
would have been unthinkable only a
few years ago-iS that in this threat
full, uncertain world we can't get along

Congratulations should be

for his announcement that
he will protest the visit of
Cuba's Fidel Castro to this
country on April II. 1t is
time that the United States
Government stopped the
practice Of bending over
backwards to please every
liberal that happens along.
Mr.. Davis, unlike Mr.. Cas-
tro and our own Supreme
Court, recognizes the validity
of James Harrington's state
ment: THE liberty Of a COM
monwealth consists in the
empire Of her laws. and not
her men," 1t is to be regret
ted that more Of our Nations
liberals do not recognize this
maxim as a solid foundation
for government.
1t is to be hoped that some
OF our other conservative
Congressman will back Mr..
Davis in this protest and
fight for their convictions.
