That is, their lead ers are thinking in those terms— while the rest are just joining the parade and taking orders in their usual sheeplike fashion. But it is among such groups that mass psychology is. ignited and gradually spread to other groups. Even though everyone in this country is cheering the Russian stand and hoping that Russia can destroy a bit part of the German strength, even the communists ought to real ize that the eventual salvation of Russia will depend on an Allied vic- fc>ry—and that an Allied victory means opening a second front only when our leaders know we are ready for it.

Approxi mately $3,000 was expended last year for these services and .it is anticipated that the amount will be increased during the coming years.

The Town pf Clinton is asked to be responsible for lights, ytater, heat, $250 for janitor service, > insurance, and reapirs on the building.
