This hint on how to

passed on to me, and ] have
used 1t very successfully.
Purchase very fine grain
sandpaper at any hardware
store. Keep it with your sew
ing things, and before using
the shears make i've or six
cuts with them into the
sandpaper. This works well
also with straight blade scis-
sors.
I hope this helps with your

Must Be TofuI

Emancipation must be total and for all.
1t is the tragedy of our world that those
who have not been free, the exploited, the
hungry, have been largely the non-white
populations. Thus the search and struggle
for emancipation takes on racial connota-
tions. Bitterness increases on both sides and
the dangers to peace are magnified. Racial
discrimination in any part of the world is
known everywhere and distorts positive
attempts at assistance that may be under
taken. - Charles ID. Sherman, President
YMCA World Alliance.

The Pope On Aid

Justice and humanity demand that the
(wealthy nations) come to the aid Of the
(poor nations). To destroy or squander
goods that other people need in order, is to
offend against justice and humanity &.
But the temptation with which the econ
omically developed political communities
have to struggle is that of profiting from
their technical and financial cooperation so
as to influence the political situation of the
less developed countries with a view to
bringing about of world domination-POpe

Without getting involved with any
thing too very much the reader can
tour Montana once over lightly.
The illustrations by Elwood Averill
give good impressions of the sights
to be seen without being overdrawn.
They are kind of fun to look at, you
can think the artist had fun drawing
them.
The photos are okay but / have
seen better ones of some locations.

The French and English commerce
in furs prompted the setting of tribe
against tribe in an attempt to gain
foothold beore the Americans real
lied the potentials of this vast area.
Soldiers, teamsters, engineers, ex-
plorers, and fur trappers that entered
Montana on the Missouri water road
all became pawns in the political
schemes of yesterday. The Indian
was used as the brunt of excuse for
every raw base emotion that was
used to weld people into line of
material communication to the east.
The original economic base for life
of the Indian tribes disappeared.
Leadership under Sitting Bull and
others tried to turn the tide by nego-
tiation but this did not meet the
needs of the political climate of the
time. The power lust of our politi-
clans demanded the toll in blood.
This brave book should be read
by every TV viewer and more
especially by the TV writers. The
veracity of this history of our
Yellowstone will do much to clarity
and revitalize our thinking now as
to what went on before. With this
air cleared we can have a better
basis today for facing tomorrow.
1t is interesting to note how much
credit Mr.. Brown gives to our His
torical Library as material source.
