Double Check

Our eyes have seen His
truth is marching on. As we
watched TV during the past hap
penings there were more tears
shed and hearts opened up than
in many past years Of happen
ings, and as we Thank God for
America let us not lose the
great vision and lesson that we
have learned w eshould real
ize by now that God works in
mysterious ways His wonders to
perform and we bow to
His Will, not ours and
America goes forward.
Yet in view of all the hap
penings it would be best for the
Nation that Congress took a
holiday on passing of bills. They
need to think good on Tax re-
duction and Civil rights they
could be Civil wrongs. Let us
all as a freedom loving people
bear with Congress and use our
intelligence to help them make
laws that We as a people will
be glad to keep. Congress can
not pass any special favors our
system will not stand for that.
We must all be reasonable. and
we are all together stepping out
on a sea of possibilities. They
must not be obScured.
Everybody has in these few
days made solemn promise to
back this administration we
must do just that. It will be sue
cessful if we follow through.

Babson Gives Advice To Retailers

series of tips for housewives
who do the family buying trying

selves need tips just as much as
housewives if they are to bal

fore has there been such bitter
competition on the retail scene
as there is today. So here are
some suggestions for trades
men based upon my many
years of observation.
