Some people have a way with words Their speeches are
remembered for generations, and even schoolchildren can
quote from them. On March 23, 1775, such a speech was
made by such a person. Patrick Henry was already a success
ful criminal lawyer and influential colonial leader when he
attended the Virginia revolutionary convention in Richmond
His argument for arming the Virginia militia assured his
place in history as one of the world’s great orators and
staunch defenders of human liberty His words on that occa
sion still captivate us today “Is life so dear or peace so sweet
as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery 7 Forbid
it. Almighty God 1 1 know not what course others may take,
but as for me. give me liberty or give me death l ”
Where liberty dwells, there is my country.

EARTHWISE
Refrigerators can be real
energy hogs. Keeping an
old one in your basement
just to keep spare soft drinks
cold when entertaining could
be costing you as much as
$l2O a year Consider getting
nd of it and the unnecessary
energy drain. Remember to
check the seal on your refrig
erator gasket by closing the
door on a dollar bill or piece
of newspaper If
the bill or paper
pulls out easi- ,
ly, replace the
worn gasket for
more energy
savings
