Woo NRWcEs for Our Whistle

The story is told of Ben Franklin who found himself
day as boy with pocketfu of pennies AT the he
so fascinated by the sound Of certain whistle that he laid all
the pennies the Not until later did he realize that
he had paid far too much for his whistle.
Edward W. Greenfield in Pause for Reflection, points
out that the liberty to buy and sell in the open market at
whatever price willing give is, Of
priceless heritage of competitive free enterprise If
don like the price, elsewhere Yet fooshy like
franklin many of us indeed pay too much for whistle
lie cautions that do that not simply in money. Our
worst bargains at deeper level For instance financial
success at the price of integrity and principle gay escapade
at the price of happiness home begged favor the cost
OF independence and serespect the victory of gaining
advantage at the cost of the respect of friends
And then that rash of bad bargaining in which America
engaged the selling Of freedom for security, fiscal sol
vency for political expedency and the philosophy of peace
at any price
We must agree with him. It's time to start asking, Are
we paying too much for whistler"
