Tt is 476 feet long and can do thirty Now they can fully realize what a bunch of suckers they were. would have fed many, many hun- dren people during the past few years. ® ee 0 Angleworms were stewed and eaten as a delicacy by California Indians before the white man in- troduced more mcdern foods. Many a fine fish has been caught on a bait of the same lowly worm. | But their greatest value to man, as Darwin showed convincingly in a noted menograph, is in stirring | up and fertilizing the soil. They tunnel tirclessly in the dirt, pro- viding passages for moisture and air and beneficial bacteria. Also they fertilize the soil on a really large scale. Darwin estimated that earth- worms dd ten to fifteen tins of excellent manure to each acre of | ground every year.. Silent and] for the most part un-noticed, they | are nature's gift to the farmer. ce 00 Gradually the American people cre beginning to realize that jobs don't grew on trees. In due time they will also learn that there is no financial Santa Claus and people can only be paid for work- ing as long as the money lasts. We are entering znother of those “after the war periods” when there | is a general leveling off every- thing. With industries closing for re- pairs, reorganizations, one month | or vacations and a dozen other excuses, we can not understand why Labor Unions can't see the band writing on the wall. In the face of all these conditions they are secking shorter hours, in- creases in pay. etc. Time will solve all these prib- lems. ® oo 0 FACTS BEFORE FAIRIES Feiry tales for the very voung are not as popular reading as when we were children. Ad- venture yarns that used to hold the juvenile public has given way to literature dealing with actual events and real people. After all, when you live in an age with the airplane, radio and television, the magic carpets and Aladdin lamps aren't so thrilling. How- ever, at a time when many youths are going to be Icoking for un- available jobs, they might go back to a favorite of a few decades ago and get a little encouragement from a Horzti'n Alger hero. But there are many who will insist that the Alger books were fairy | tales too. ®ve HE HAS SOMETHING THERE Before the House committee on | agriculture on April 30, the Mas- ter of the National Grange, Al- bert S. Gross, said: “Subsidies once occeptéd are very hard t» abanden. They will break down commendable spirit of independence which is largely re- sponsible for progress, and sub- stitute a dependence on govern- | ment which is abhorrent to our strongest traditions. They tend! | singer, as maid of honor. Brides- to make beggars of us. TImportan: issues involving the welfare of the nation or other groups would be bartered to get znd better | subsidies cr to prevent ruin to the farmers who could not live with- out them.” ® oo 0 FATHER'S DAY Father has his day the third Sunday in June though he doesn't | | nation’s Capitol to the most iso- | That same amount of money | David Risser and Charles Johnson. get excited over the occasion, as a rule. The gifts, in most cases, he pays fir and besides, he would rather choose his own ties! He wears his new socks and slippers, smokes his new pipe and sorts over the new fishing equipment. as though this Day was an old story. But he likes the tributes just the same. There is a great responsibility entrusted to a man who becomes a father. In training his children he becomes an example, sets al standard that can hold possibil- ities for good or bad. May the wisely and well. We salute them for their investment of time and trouble. May they yield children who are assets to their family, | community and nation. OUR FLAG Our Flag is the emblem of our | freedom, the symbol of our own strength, the promise of our unity as an independent country under the banner of God. Men in battle | have added to its fame. Selfless | sacrifice has enriched its colors. Steadfastness of spirit of those | { who salute it, has carried its meaning into the far corners of the world. From battle field to the peaceful village square, from the lated country school house, files the standard of justice and de- mocracy, of freedom for common man, Our Flag is the American's tri- | bute to the defense of tolerance. | It is fitting, at a time when there is much discussion of civil right, when there exists intolerance for | other races, colors and creeds, that | we stress the tolerance symbolized | by this Flag. We cannot say | “unity” aad then fight it within | our own village. We cannot sey “noble living” and mount the | platform for racial prejudice. We | cannct say “comradeship” and | then persecute. There is a vision | and a promise, a blessing, in Old | Glory, but we must hold it forth as an expression of these things | in sincerity, in deep compassion for those not enriched by it. We must BELIEVE, eo 0 THE VALUE OF PAPER Paper plays an important role | in the U. S. We consume mil- | licns of tons of paper each year, with newspaper, books, writing pager, building beards, wrapping paper, cartons and many other pa- | per products, ¥ WY HAPPENINGS — of — LONG AGO 20 Years Ago 2nd Annual eunion of th Sixtecners w held in the Legion Home Leeal busine contributed $275.~ 00 for a tent to accomodate 21 Mt Joy boys a Camp Shand M Fugene Rice was injured when he fell off a cherry tree.

D. captured | some Chinese paper experts and trought the paper to Arabia and to Persia. Traders then took the paper into Greece. The manu- fecture of paper didn’t begin in | Europe until the Twelfth Century in Spain. Brown paper was in- troduced in the 16th Century and was 100 years after blotting paper | was made from cotton, the Euro- pean {rom rags, while today most all commercial papers are made ! | from wood pulp. Having so much paper about us we have wasted it. The war taught us conservation, but soon we forgot. The increase in the price of paper is reason to recog- nize its worth in the American | market. There is no ‘power of the press’ without the greater power of paper. Tins and glass containers will do very well, but imagine no paper bags! What would ycu do without cartons, al- though you may find a substitute for building board? It is im- possible to imagine living with- out paper. Perhaps we should value it more highly in our daily use of it and conserve paper in peacetime as well as in war time —————— — ee VISS RUTH RENSEL, FLORIN WILL WED SAT.
