LIVING IN MODERATION

No word better expresses the proper
philosophy of life than the word modera-
ton. We do not mean to suggest that mod
GRAFTON can be applied to any practice, since
many practices are bad even when prac-
ticed in the slightest degree.
However, in living ones life mOdera-
ton is a general guide which can be used
to solve most of lifes problems concerning
habits, work, play and other activities. 1t
is difficult for anyone, whether he is a tea
cher, a preacher, or a parent, to outline a
fiat rule of conduct which covers all stu
dents, all members of church or all chill
dren. In each case, the answer may differ
slightly.
The Individual must learn to think for
himself and exercise self discipline. He can
not rely upon ironclad rules to guide him
through life, and become his philosophy or
substitute for cOmmon-sense and the ability
to make decisions in life. Each individual
must live his own life, and must decide, as
best he can, what is best for him. Jesus
Himself believed in moderation, as any stu
dent of the Bible knows, and laid down COM
paratively few arbitrary rules of conduct
for His followers Rather, He taught that
man should believe in God, and dedicate
his life to Christian living, and helping his
fellow man.
The great strength of many Of our re-
ligions is that they encourage the thinking
process and discourage out-dated doctrine
and dogma, which no longer make sense in
the light of modern science and human pro-
gress. While religious principles never
change, human beings should continue to
seek enlightenment, and the true spirit Of
Christian living in the hope that further
progress can be made.
While blind obedience to a set Of rules

tian progress and enlightenment. Civiiza-
tons greatest leaders have been thinkers,
and many of them have been branded as
radicals or revolutionaries in their day. New
ertheless, they refused to blindly conform
to the demands of the narrow-minded of
their time.

THE original plot of Lincoln

In 1867 the proposed railroad

Lincol nan additional economic

OIL AND WILDLIFE

You might assume that oil drilling and
exploration are inevitably enemies of wild
life. But you'd be wrong. By following care
full conservation practices, American oil
companies are not only protecting but in
many ways beneftting our wildlife re-
sources.
The American Petroleum Institute de-
scribes several outstanding instances of this.
Louisian's Avery Island has turned out to
be both major bird sanctuary and a sue
cessful oil field-oil production in no way
interferes with the well-being of the birds
or the famed jungle gardens Some years
ago in Texas, bird lovers feared that the
planned operations of an oil company might
hinder efforts to save the rare whooping
crane from threatened eXtinction-subse
quently, the cOmpany's carefully planned
drilling program rewarded with an
Audubon Society citation. Drilling rigs
sunk into the ocean floor near Los Angeles
resulted in the creation of a prime fishing
area where none had existed before-the
fish were attracted by barnaces and vege
tation that sprouted from the rig supports.
Oil companies operate without harm to wild
life in refugees and in river deltas of the
Gulf Coast States which are highly impor-
tant habitats for waterfowl and aquatic
animals. On the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska
oil development has not scared the moose
away. The companies involved agreed to
protect them, and the animals are friendly
and hang out where the drilling is under
way.
SO it goes, down a long list The oil in
dustry proves that, with proper practices,
we can conserve invaluable natural re-
sources, such as wildlife-and at the same
time carry on needed commercial develop
ments that benefit the whole nation.

Hospital Has Accepted
It's 1061-62 Budget
Continued from page one)


Rising hospital costs are also
brought about by the necessary
efforts on the part of hospitals to-
day to bring the working stand
ards of their personnel more in
line with comparable people in
other services in the communities
they serve. The normal initiation
airy trend also has great impact
on the cost problems.
In conservatively fOrecasting
the expenses this year, the Board
of Trustees of the Milford Mem
orial Hospital were faced with an
extremely large deficit. To reduce
this loss to one amounting to
ST. 500, an amount which addition
al donations might meet, it was
necessary to increase rates by one
20 two dollars a day. The new
rates will be as follows:

per day.
Semi-private Room $500 and
$4,000 per day

DUCK HUNTING CURBED

The IT, S. Fish and Widlife Service has
ordered a sharp curtalment in duck hunt
ing time and bag limits along the nations
several fyways. Although hunters may
groan about it, if they look beyond their
noses they will recognize that this is good
example of conservation in action-and that
such action promises long-range benefits for
all who indulge in this sport.
Not all the flyways are equally affected.
A longer season is permitted on the Pacific
flyway than on the Atlantic Mississippi and
Central f1yways. Breeding areas for these
three experienced the worst drouth in 80
years. and it is this that has brought the
government breakdown. But though hunt
ing will be limited this year. that makes the
prospects better for the years to come. This
is the real meaning of the Washington duck
restrictions.

NOT PRACTICING WHAT
WE PREACH

In the beginning of IVA the project
was to be for flood control, navigation, rec

board for government-owned, taX-exempt
power projects in all sections of the cOun-

Russia has her five year plans for the
development of government-Owned power

power plants. Already some 20 per cent of
power generation in the United States has
been socialized. In Russia it is 100 per cent

ment that has been made about federal

hydro, steam and atomic power plants.
A new drive to build more tax-exempt
government power projects is now under
way while federal licenses to permit power
development by tax-paying investor-owned
