In China, in Java. In Palestine, ancl in Iran open conflict is under way, or is in the making. The nations which were allies a short time ago have already begun to give voice to an underlying suspicion which was there all the time, but was almost never mentioned. On the home front, we have not yet mustered the courage necessary to give democracy a breathing chance. We make plans with agile minds but we fail to carry them out because we have lost spirit. We have lost spirit because leadership in this country is too largely in the hands of men who basically do not represent the Ameri can ideals at all. It is just as impossible for a man who goes to Congress from the spiri tual morass of South Carolina to work af fectively toward world democracy as it is for a mule which has spent all its life in the bowels of a coal mine to find its way about in the bright sunlight. Just the same, every individual in this country has the obligation to make Christ mas ring true for as many as he can .The best place to start is where you are and the time is now. Don’t make the mistake of be lieving that courtesy has to begin across the street, and that friendliness has no place ! at your own breakfast table. This job of lie mg kind and considerate of others isn’t a Sunday responsibility; it’s an everyday op portunity. Let's think less of what we shall buy for our loved ones this Christmas, and a little mote of what we shall give them of ourselves. Watch The Swindlers: Our boys who are coming back have saved up amazing totals of money, running into millions of dollars. Many of them have saved because there was nothing ylse to do, and many others have kept their money be cause they want to buy a home, or to start a business of tlieir own. But on every corn er in my town and in yours, there are swind lers of both sexes ready to rob these men of their last penny. The Better Business Bureau estimates that there are hundreds of schemes already being worked, and that the number increases by the day. There is the guy who offers a lonely veteran a place to spend the night, and who robs him and and leaves before daylight. There are the hussies who stir up excitement in a man who has been woman hungry for months, and calmly feeds him knockout drops so* that their pals can take his money, and sometimes even his clothing. And doorbells are being rung all over the country by dis honest peddlers who ask for a sizable a mount down on some household commodity which is never delivered. Some folks be lieve that they can tell an honest face when they see one, and that type always falls the hardest. They don’t know that the smooth est crooks always have the most honest faces, and they probably have not heard the famous words of Barnum’s: “There’s a sucker born every minute, and someone to take him.” Inflation Is Here: In Washington and in New YorK, and in the other money centers of the United States, there has been much talk about the dangers of inflation. OPA has put up a strong fight to stave it off, and the Trea sury Department has helped the nation keep it’s balance bv making the buying of War Bonds an attractive investment. But inflation is here, in spite of all our efforts to the contrary. If you don’t believe it, try to buy a shirt -which cost a dollar and a half before the war. If the shiirt now costs four dollars, we have inflation. A dollar has no more value than the amount of goo< can purchase with it, which simply means that when prices sro up, the value of the dollar goes down. When prices go too high standards of living drop and there is an other depression. All of us can help now by purchasing only the necessities of life, and without anyway. waiting for the things we’ve learned to do Sit | I 1. Contains only Natural Herbs. f Is.
