PRESIDENT-NATIONAL

COURAGEOUS PUBLIC
SERVANT
Congressman Walter H. Judd,
of Minnesota, is giving our nation
the kind of leadership service that
any nation must have to progress
.and remain free. He doesn’t think
first about being popular with the
electorate back home. His cour
age and his integrity demand that
his words and his actions in Con
gress and as a citizen be based
on sound principles, no matter
what the results may be political
ly. His 18 years in Congress are
proof enough that a majority of
the American people, when given
a clear choice, respect and affirm
sound basic principles.
In an addres? dedicating the
Citizenship Training Center at
Oklahoma Christian College, Dr.
JTadd spoke out with typical frank
ness about the American system
and government’s function in _ a
free society. He recalled that
President Woodrow Wilson once
said, “The history of man’s strug
gle for liberty is the history of
his struggle to hold down the
powers of government.” Congress
man Judd said: “We must have
government, but we must hold
it down to the minimum. And
now those who call themselves
Wilson’s ideological followers take
every problem to Washington. And
this worries me more than some
of our external dangers.
Big Government Reactionaries
“Some advocate returning to
the system our forefathers came
here to get away from, and they
call that progress! Really it’s re
action—it’s going backwards, not
forward. It always looks good at
first to follow such a course. You
can pass out something as long as
it has been provided by a pre
ceding and more provident gene
ration. But what happens when
you run out of the fat?
“You know, I could work the
arithmetic problems for my two
daughters better than they could
work them for themselves. I was
tempted to do it at times too, be
cause it was easier. They would
have liked to have me do it, but I
didn’t. I helped them, encouraged,
nudged, corrected, advised, pray
ed, but I didn’t work the problems
for them. A parent who does for
a child what the child has the ca
pacity to do for himself destroys
both the capacity and incentive
of the child to do for himself. And
when government does for the
citizen that which the citizen
should do for himself, the citizen
yidll be damaged in the process
dn the same way.
Learning About Wealth
“Some years ago,” continued
Congressman Judd, “I read of a
Hutch student in a theological
seminary who got a job filling in
as a summer preacher in a church
in Iowa while the regular preach
er was gone. In his first sermon
the young man got up and said
that America tnust share her
wealth with the world. The deac
ons decided that he had better
;find out how the wealth was pro
duced.
“So they let him tassel corn for
the rest of the summer instead of
preach. He found out about
wealth. It’s no use getting mad
at fellows like that. This one saw
the gap between the way we’re
living and the way so many peo
ple are living, and his first reac
tion was that we should ‘share
our wealth.’ If that would solve
the problem we’d need to do it,
bat it wouldn’t solve the problem.
The wealth would soon be gone.
The other peoples would be no bet
ter off and we’d be worse off. Who
would that help?
Fundamental Principles
“Wealth is a result of some
thing. What these people need is
not wealth but the secret of
wealth. And what’s the secret of
the wealth ? It’s an economic sys
tem that gives opportunity and in
centive for people to get ahead
in accordance with their own mer
it, or their imagination, or effort.
Where did that come from ? It
came from a political philosophy
that recognized the rights of the '
individual as a child of God. And

In his closing remarks, Con
gressman Judd said: “This war
with world Communism is not a
war for land. It is for mankind,
the mind of man, the soul of man,
the whole of man. Never did Am
ericans face such a fundamental
challenge to our ultimate values.
Never did we have to think no
deeply and work so hard as we’re
going to have to do, if we’re to
live in dignity or even live at all.
Our generation is not going to be
able to escape the call to great
dedication and heroic effort if we

ity.”

Wheeling, West Virginia
Cities To See
Wheeling, W. Va., was founded in 1769 by Colonel Ebenezer Zane
and his two brothers, who came from South Branch Valley 100 years
after the first white man set foot on what is now West Virginia soil.
The town grew up about Fort Henry which was built by Captain
Crawford and a company of men from Fort Dunmore, Virginia in
1774. The last battle of the Revolutionary War was fought at Wheel
ing between 42 inhabitants who were within Fort Henry and a detach
ment of British soldiers and about 250 Indians.
The city had its first impetus
because it was located near the
head of navigation on the Ohio
River, and was for a long time
the western terminal of the Na
tional Road, which was finished
in Wheeling in 1919, Cumber
land, Maryland, being the eastern
end. The National Road was the
most important avenue of com
merce over the mountains prior
to the railroads and after its ex
tension to Columbus, Indianapo
lis, and St. Louis, a constant
stream of commerce flowed over
the highway. Wheeling was the
first point reached by railroad
on the Ohio River and was for
some years the western terminal
of the Baltimore and Ohio, the
first road to cross th-* Allegheny
Mourn a ins.
Wheeling was established as a
town in 1795 and in'" '. rated in
1836. A Charter ■ rted in
1836 by the Virginia Assembly
Wheeling was loyal to the Fed
eral Government during the
Civil War, and the State of West
Virginia was born here. The capi-
tol of the new state was located
here from 1863 to 1870, when it
was mbved to Charleston. In
1875, the seat of government was
brought back to Wheeling and
remained until 1885, when it was
again transferred to Charleston.
Wheeling has an estimated
population of 65,000, but in reali
ty is a community of many times
that population, stretching north,
south, east and west over the
Ohio River to a radius of 30
miles. The population of the
Wheeling Metropolitan Area ap
proximates 354,000.
Located on the Ohio River,
Wheeling is 59 miles southwest of
Pittsburgh.

How To Say 'No' To Going Steady
By C. D. Smith

THIS WEEK’S LETTER: “I have
a problem which I can’t solve. I
met this boy the first day of
school. He’s been constantly tag
ging along wherever I go. A few
days ago he came up to me and
asked me to go steady. I have
never planned on going steady
until I was at least in my senior
a m high school. I don't be-
’ . .. in . ing steady. Do you think I
thing 0 I ha
tl
"m sort of bashful
to boys and saying !
things like that. I get speechless.
He’s a nice boy and is very friend
ly, but I just don’t care for him.
How would you go about telling
him that, when you are as bashful
as I am?
/n this situation, as in everything
else—‘‘honesty is the best policy.”
The only thing to do is tell the boy
the truth—just as stated in the let
ter. To begin, a girl who does not
uant to go steady needs to give.no
other reason than to state the jaet
that she is not interested in going
steady. Actually, she is bting un
fair, both to herself and to the boy
concerned, when she does not
make this clear.
The sooner the “decks are
cleared,” the better for all con
cerned. Being bashful about some
thing and putting it off just makes
the situation grow worse—and
eventually more embarrassing.
Sooner or later, a “showdown”
must come. The sooner the better.
I believe that I would handle the
situation by telling him the truth,
just as it is stated in the letter—
that he is a nice boy, friendly, but
“going steady” is out of the ques
tion. It is essential that he be told,
or he will continue to believe that
silence means consent and agree
ment to the plea of “going steady.”
Sometimes we can hurt our
selves by being bashful o being
too-much concerned tha" 1 . we might
hurt someone else’s feelings. But
we must be honest—with our
selves and with others. The sim
plest way is to say, “John, ycu
are a nice boy. I feel compli
mented that you ask me but I
have to say ‘no.’ 1 don’t want to
go steady.”

Squirrel Watching
In my back yard Is an immense
oak that I referred to as a live-
oak. Then a man who knew better
called it a gray oak. The linger
ing doubt in my mind was dis
pelled when winter came. Then,
though the trunk is huge, the
branches large and spreading,
and the leaves resemble those of
a live-oak. the leaves fell off and
the limbs were left gaunt and
bare. A live-oak is always green.
There is a squirrel that appears
in the thick foliage of a pecan
tree nearby when the nuts are
ripe. The other day, when it was
cold and the wind was blowing
hard, a squirrel was cavorting
among the branches of the oak.
Another cherished bit of knowl
edge was dispelled. I once
thought, creeping through the
woods in quest of small game,
that squirrels do not venture out
on cold, windy days. Now I know
better.
And from a squirrel cavorting
in a tree has come the realization
that there are many things I did
not know and that more can be
learned with a watchful eye and
the effort to observe things as
they really are. Then with con
fidence we can discard our pre
conceived and unverified notions
of some things.

WATER SAFETY
During this season, water safe
ty is of great importance. We
have thousands of ponds and
many bathing places. Some are
not supervised at all. So every
swimmer needs to have some safe
ty rules in mind.
The Red Cross is very active in
this field. They suggest that an
inflated innertube with about a
40 foot piece of rope attached to
it be kept at every swimming
place for emergencies. Also a. long
fishing pole that you might reach
one with who is in distress.
Other suggestions are: If you
can’t swim, don’t drift into deep
water on a tube. Tt might be
come deflated. Learn to swim a
little and then better. Never swim
alone. Swim only in safe places,
clearly marked. Don’t swim under
a diving board, and look before
you dive. Never dive into unknown
water, you might hit a rock or
stump ,or the water might not be
deep enough. Don’t swim right
after eating, when overheated, or
very tired. Stay out of water dur
ing storms. Try to keep calm if
you get in trouble in the water,
and float with face up, with hands
and feet under water gently mov
ing them to propel you to safety.
This is a brief summary of wa
ter safety rules carried in the
National Grange Monthly.
And I might add, never go in
a boat without a life preserver.
Many of our farm pends were
not built for swimming. So they
carry unusual hazards, like steep
banks. A ladder inserted there
and weighted to the bottom is a
good safety precaution.
IMPROVING BEEF CATTLE
* ■*••• ’ -vsT/'* f -i
County Agent Outz figures
Laurens County has more regist
ered beef cattle than any other
county in the state. And they are
doing something very definite
about improving them. Their per
formance testing program is un
derway with over a thousand-
cows. This was made possible by
the Exchange Club and local farm
ers buying the necessary portable
scales. These are in charge of As
sistant County Agent H. L. Eason,
who supervises the weighing an#,
record keeping. The poorer ani*
mals were weeded out. A cow must- •
raise a good calf fast to stay in.

WEEVIL FIGHT
The boll weevil fight is getting
tight. We are nearing the end of
it. Our Max Sparks urges all who
have made a good fight so far to
watch their cotton and continue
poisoning a little longer where
needed. Making cotton now is
mainly a battle with this bug. And
he has shown time and again that
he can take the crop unless we
are vigilant.

MEDITORIAL: Most people are
familiar with the problem of
“stomach” (peptic) ulcers. I have
written many times on this sub
ject but one aspect that I’ve
neglected to mention is that pep
tic ulcers can occur in children.
In fact, it is believed by most
experts that this condition is far
more common than-generally be
lieved.
Peptic ulcers have been found
within 10 months of birth. Careful
examination reveals a frequent
incidence of emotional distur
bances.
The children are nervous,
irritable and tend to cry .
great deal. Both the mother
of the affected child and her
mother tend to exhibit similar
emotional problems. Whether
the child inherits this emo
tional tendency or acquires it
by association is difficult to
ascertain, but it played a
known role in the formation
of ulcers.
The symptoms of peptic ulcers
in children are similar to those of
adults. The most common is pain
in the “stomach.” Children do
not have night pain as a rule.

(Q) “My 80-year-old mother
has been troubled with muens
in her throat for several
years. It makes her congh at
night and she feels as if she
is strangling. Do you have
any suggestions?”
Mrs. C. N.
(A) Her condition might be
stemming from a chronic sinus
infection with a post-nasal drip.
Sinus drainage bothers people
more when they lie down to
sleep. I suggest that her sinuses
be examined by your doctor or an
ear, nose and throat specialist.
There may be some medicine
that c <n help “dry” up this
mucus.
