high silk lids, and the old blue
serge was put on the skids.
That's the style note for the
frontier parade; there,l be no
Crocketts in this charade.
Lyndon can't wear any ten
gallon hats. and high-heeled
boots must be covered by
spats. Silk Hat Harry must
park his fedora and stop maxi
ing speeches in rigamarola.
And Senators who talk In
corn-pone drawls must learn
the speech of Harvard halls.
Kentucky colonels must swear
off corn: Scotch is their cross
which must be borne. ThereM
be no coonskins on Harvard
heads that are dreaming Of
taxes on space homesteads.
The frontier women have q
new hair-do. and junked their
Jeans, which improved the
view. There'll be no mule
skinners with rifles long; Just
tail-coated Frankie and his
victory song. Now those are
the styles Of the new from
tier; they make this Repub-
lican cry in his beer.

strength, to inform his mind.

ever mindful Of the prayers
Of the people; keep him open
to Thy eternal yet ever new
judgments; cause him to
seek Thy face. Do Thou so
guide him and uphold him
that our Nation may be
guided wisely and challenged
to reach for new and nobler
achievements, to search for

give itself to the service oi

This represents cultural
pluralism In America at its
best. It is a positive, heart
warming prelude to the OBJ
servance Of Brotherhood

understanding proves that
Brotherhood Week can be Q

event meAningful and note
worthy.
