No one has been able to put
together more than a four
game string in the National

and only the Braves and
Dodgers have won that many
In q row. The Braves won
their first four and took first
place early in April. The
Dodgers won four straight

Repeat Of IS Pattern
It's a repeat Of last years
Trace. in which the longest win
lining streak was seven games.
THE Dodgers. who finished sew
enth, never won more than
-four straight last year.
The Dodgers now have won
seven Of their last 10, and Nc

complete games the pitching
staff has produced in that span.

q two-hit shutout until the
eighth inning last night. when
willie Jones hit his seventh

Important in the fullest sense is
New Years which comes in Win
ter. It is time for making reso-
buttons, and it is a time for plan
ming a whole years endeavors.
What if some of the resolutions are
broken? Many of them are kept
a whole year, and those that are
broken leave one the better for
being kept for even a short length
of time.
hope we will look forward to
making all our holidays this year
the finest we have known. We can
be content with the hardships of
winter because winter brings us
the finest occasions of the whole
year.
I'll try to be like one of my
neighbors. He wants cold weather
to come to get aid of mosquitoes,
and when the days begin to cool
off, he complains that his fuel oil

WHY ORGANIZATIONS DIE IN THE DoLDRuMs

The that many organizations and commune
ties dying of moribundy grows and out of
the spirit of le George do it, Complaint is often voiced
about the difficulty of keeping civic organizations alive in
and tendency to leave everything up after year the
old few The old few try to hold forever and
things suit themselves In the foolish belief that it
gives them prestige The fact that they always up
in front and demanding to be recognized scourages young
err active and often able persons from putting

Nothing tiesome than to attend events where
gusting when having spoken at length they
satisfied but pop up time after time and cannot realize

of stopping, keep saying it over and over
New blood is needed in everything Old people can be
helpful they give good counsel sometimes they have

UNCLE DOCK FROM DUCK WRITES:
Says Winters Even Better Than Autumn
Because Of lis Many joyful Holidays

Dear Mr.. Editor:
/ have noticed that several times
you have commented upon Autumn
as the most delightful of seasons.
| / wouldn't take anything from it,
but do / want to say that / don't
see how anything can come up
with winter to match the pure joy
lit brings. Winter may have some
rough weather, it's hard on the
workingman who loses time from
his job, and tough for all who pay
fuel bills, but there are plenty of
compensations for all those things.
Have you ever thought about the
goodness and the human kindness
that come out of the principal holi-
days in Winter time? Take Thanks
giving, when so many of the fami-
| ly gather around in gratitude to
bear witness to the goodness that
has favored US all the year. How
could any person, with the proper
sense of humility in his heart en-
joy anything more, particularly
when he is surrounded by the whole
family.
And take Christmas for what it
means to those have the true sense
of charity and love for their fellow
men. What can make person hap
pier than the sight of those who,
young and old, have been the OBJ
jects of giving by loved ones and
friends. 1t really makes an old fell
low young again to see and hear
and feel the abundant joy that
comes forth from every child on
this day.
Old folks get great kick out
of having children home from far
places, sometimes they haven't been
seen in years. How much delight
everyone gets while anticipating
and planning for, the visit home at
Christmas time.
These two holidays, to my mind,
do more to civilize the human race
than anything else. They tell US
Christmas has been concentrated,
and so it has. They say it is a sim
full waste to spend so much at
Christmas time while forgetting
all the rest of the year. 1t is true
there is a lot of waste, but the cup
of charity should be one that run
