MIR. BILL oRIGHTs

MIR. BILL ORIGHTS
Greetings to you, Bill! Happy
Birthday
Mr.. Bill O'Rights, that is. Tall and
fair e.
Born in 1871, right here in Amer
lea!
His Dad is a great Yank, famed
for his height.
1t was his Dad, Declaration of
Independence, who stood up
to declare:
Men are rated equal
With certain inalienable rights"
A true Yankee Doodle Dandy,
that's Bill,
He guards Pershing Square
City Hall E. and Capitol
Hill.
Bill thinks and talks this way:
Let that fellow have his say,
Let people come together If they
want.
Let editors publish their ideas.
Give a man jury trial,
speedy one with bail
so he won't rot in Jail.
Hey there! No search without a
warrant-not in American
homes!
You can't keep soldiers in Amer
lean homes!
To take private property without
just compensation is robbery!
Only by due process Of law can
a man be deprived Of life,
liberty, or property"
Yes, sir, that's our Bill.
A man of down-to-earth goodwill,
Friend of ALL Americans!
Carrie c. Huthsing, Copy
right, 1882.
The greatness of the United
States is due simply to this fact:
Under the principal of individual
liberty, human incentive has been
given its widest scope.

country with a known birthday

Is true Freedom but to break
Fetters for our own dear sake,
And, with leathern hearts, forget
That we owe mankind a debt?
No! true freedom is to share
All the chains our brothers wear
And with heart and hand, to be
Ernest to make others free!

This I Do Believe:

This 1 Do Believe:
believe - and conceive -
the Constitution of the United
States to rest upon, as does re-
ligion, the fundamental proposition
Of the integrity Of the individual;
and that all government and all
private institutions must be de-
signed to promote and to protect
and to defend the integrity and the
dignity of the individual; that that
is the essential meaning of the
Constitution and the Bill Of Rights,
as it is essentially the meaning Of
religion.
Any form Of government, there
fore, and any other institutions
which make men means rather
than ends, which exalt the state
above the Importance Of men,
which place arbitrary power over
men as a fundamental tenet Of
the government are contrary to
that conception.
1t is very easy to talk about
being Communism. 1t is equally
important to believe those things
which provide a satisfying and eff
fective alternative. Democracy is
that satisfying, affirmative alter
native. That I deeply believe

Gen. Macarthur, SO, and now
board chairman of the Sperry

He said his memoirs would
"fill the gap insofar as my own
part was concerned" during his

The general said the book
will include his custer from

early next year. McGraw Hill

are a number of things I
would like to call your at

now if they have not already
been done on your farm.
Take soil samples in order
that you will know the kind
and amounts of fertilizer that
should be applied to get ef-
ficient production from each
crop that you plant on a par
ticular piece of land. BY do
ing this you will certainly
save in manv cases on your
fertilizer bill and in other
cases you may need to in
crease the amount of fertili-
ger you would normally use.
However this increase. if
needed, will certainly pay you
many more dollars for each
dollar spent than you would
get otherwise.
