As for the privileges of Ameri can citizenship, they will be of eur own making, because if we carry our responsibilities honestly, will find the privileges will come, as naturally as the leaves on thfr oak tree—a part of our toil which is its own reward. Our privileges will be peace, prosperity and joy of living, limited only by our re gard for others. For we mus~ remember that there are many oak trees in the forest! In conclusion, there is one sure way to become a citizen of whom cur country can be proud. An 1 that is by first of all becomin: the kind of individual who con • mands his own self respect.

The essay subject was “Ameri can Citizenship; Its Privileges and Its Responsibilities”, and any high cchcol student in the county was permited' to enter. Miss Smith’s essay will be entered in the State contest. The essay is as follows: When is a citizen not a citizen? The answer to that question is easy: when he is a parasite! We have seen mistletoe growing in the topmost branches of a giant oak. It sends out no roots into the earth to seek food, but feeds, like the parasite it is, on the strength of the oak. But the mistletoe has one advantage over the human parasite—it is sometimes beauti ful. The human parasite—the citizen who is not a true citizen, and who feeds and grows only through the efforts of the true citizen—is not a thing of beauty. It is easy to see that the real citi zens of America are those who seek and live upon food of their | own getting; not merely food for April 22 to 27 is the week to the physical body, but food for the, fight Cancer.
