It's Time To Think Of 1960
The year 1959 is moving toward Its end, without so far
developing the third World War or the other misfortunes that
were predicted: by the pessimists.
There has been no collapse of public morale and the younger, 
generation, despite the complaints of their elders, seems to
be developing normally. These facts should not be overlooked
in connection with news items which naturally play up the unusual 
without expressly recognizing the great number of men
and women who play the game of life according to sound and
fair rules.
We are not yet ready to welcome the advent of 1960, or
to suggest that those who wish to plan their lives should get
down to the business of making resolutions. We will say, however, 
that individuals can greatly improve themselves by giving
serious consideration to a "program" to be followed in an effort
to attain desired goals.
There is a great tendency on the part of most people to
live from day to day, without any conscious attempt to follow
a pattern based fundamentally on principle's personally accepted 
in theory but not always discernible in the turmoil of
daily affairs. It might be profitable for all of us to check up
on our pretensions and practices.

The TV Quiz Went Round And Round
And It Comes Out Here
The Congressional quiz over the alleged "answer fix" in
the TV big payoff vs. Charles Van Doren arid others cannot
but refresh the memory of those who remember the late P. T.
Barnum of Barnum & Bailey ring circus fame. Possibly what
made him equally as famous as a great carnival ring-master
was the saying credited to him which declared that people
like to be "taken in."
Be that as it may it does not take the best recollection
to bring into review some of those big payoff quizzes. There
were the quizzed, mopping sweat and often bordering on
hysteria, as a "puzzled" mind reads above a puzzled' brow,
with a "merciless" puzzler whipping out questions ranging all
the way from primitive man, naked in the tropics, to the
camera spots on the other side of the moon.
Anyway, Charles Van Doren, the bigtime winner on
"Twenty-One" and the Rev. Jackson both are in possession of
another answer for the top quiz. There is no; big payoff for
anybody at the end of this congressional rainbow quiz.
One thing agreed: the drama did not render any contribution 
to either the industry nor those who were perhaps
thoughtlessly or wilfully "taken in."
Anyway the late Paul T. Barnum still lives on in his well
known implication that people like to be taken in.
Maybe to an extent it is an amusement which relaxes and
brings temporary comfort—a sort of dope.
You supply the term to suit your fancy.

50 Per Cent Sales Tax
What would you think of a 50 per cent sales tax on an
absolutely essential commodity, which most American families
must use every day?
Maybe you'll say that such a tax would be impossible—
that no lawmaker would vote for it and public opinion wouldn't
Stand for it. If so, you're dead wrong.
The federal tax on gasoline has just notched up another
cent per gallon. And this means, reports the American Petroleum
Institute, that the combined federal-state levy has been pushed
beyond 50 per cent of the actual retail price of the gasoline
itself in 20 states. And the motorists of other states aren't
noticeably better off - on a nationwide average, the gasoline
taxes, all of which are paid by the consumer, have hit the 47
per cent level. The average state tax is six cents and-the federal
is now four
Here's another comparison: Gasoline is almost five times
as stiffly taxed as such luxuries as diamonds and mink coats.
In just one decade — 1949-58 — there were 58 separate
gasoline tax increases in 41 states, plus two federal increases.
This added up to a 37 per cent jump in the gas taxes - while
all retail prices rose only 21 per cent and the price of gasoline
itself a mere six per cent.
How long is the gasoline using public, which means praclically 
everybody, going to hold still in the face of this kind of
tax treatment?

Youthful Lawlessness
An FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin, dated October, 1959,
signed by J. Edgar Hoover, says:
"One of the most shocking developments in our present
American society is the volcanic upheaval of youthful lawlessness. 
Long indifferent to the problem of juvenile crime, the public 
now stands appalled at the spectacle of rampaging teen-age
criminals. This tragic consequence of public apathy is now at a
crisis and calls for an all-out counterattack against vicious young
thugs.
"Blazing headlines of torture, sadism, murder, and gang
warfare toll the depredations of teen-age menaces. The black
figures of crime statistics present an even more doleful account.
In 1958, arrests of-juveniles under the age of 18 increased 8 per
cent, while arrests of adults rose 1.8 per cent. Alarmingly, not
only the frequency of youth crimes but the savagery of these
offenses is mounting day by day, year by year.
"Action against this youth menace must not be delayed. Past
public ignorance of the problem, misguided sentiment for the
tender age' of these lawbreakers, and the fallacy of economizing 
in the quantity and quality of our juvenile courts must be
abolished. It is imperative that the American public stand shoulder 
to shoulder with the undermanned and overburdened law
enforcement authorities in combating the youth crime attack.
"It is my firm conviction that the all-out campaign against
these flagrant young criminals who commit serious crimes must
include publishing their names and crimes for public information 
the ready availability of past records for the information
of appropriate law enforcement officers, and fingerprinting of
these young lawbreakers for future identification."

Miss, Officer Freed

Preston, Miss., near- here, following 
services at Oak Ridge Baptist
church.
Patrolman Rainey and Chief
Richardson were quick with stories 
that Jackson resisted arrest and
caled Rainey an "... s.ob." According 
to the chief, Rainey shot
Jackson when the latter tried to
choke him. He said the officer had
come upon Jackson and Miss
Thomas in a wrecked car and tried
to help them out. Later he decided
they were drunk end tried to arrest 
Jackson.
Richardson also denied pistol whipping 
Miss Thomas, although
she Bore a scar and a knot on her
forehead to prove someone must
have slugged her. Richardson said
he slapped Miss Jackson after she
hit him.
However, Miss Jackson's version
cf the shooting Ls so widely different 
that AN? decided to quote
her fully. The following is her
story:
"At about 10:30 p. m. Luther and
I were sitting in a friend's car on
Pine street, when a police car
drove past and stopped. An officer
(later identified as Rainey) approached 
the car and told us to
get out. Luther got out first.
"The officer pushed him in front
of the car and around the side and
out of my sight. As I was getting
out I heard a shot. When I started
towards where they were, I heard
a second shot.
"It all happened so quickly. When
I got to them, Luther was lying
in a ditch. He had been killed instantly. 
I began to cry and told
the policeman, You shot him for
nothing.' I knelt down beside Luther 
and the policeman knocked me
back. Then he made me go back
to the car.
Miss Thomas said Rainey then
went to his car and called city
hall She overheard him say, "Come
on down here, I think I have killed
a n——r."
Later, Chief Richardson, Mayor
Clayton Lewis and two policemen
arrived.
"I was crying and talking loud,"
she said, "Chief Richardson asked
me what I was saying and I told
him that Luther had been killed
for nothing. He hit me with his
pistol and broke my eyeglasses. I
hit him back. Someone must have
taken his pistol, so he hit me
again but this time with his blackjack. 
He tried to make me stop
talking."
Enroute to jail, the chief tried
to hit her again, Miss Turner said,
but one of the other officers warned 
him, "We are in deep enough
as it is,"
The next day, Miss Thomas was
fined $40 for drunkenness, resisting
arrest assault and battery,

and a $5,000 fine, could be imposed
when two or more persons "conspire

carries a maximum penalty
of 1,000 and one year imprisonment

TOUGH SADDLE
By MATT STUART
© © By Matt Stuart, 1959: from the Dodd, Mead & Co, novels
distributed by King Features Syndicate.
The only girl Link Asbell has ever
cared about is angering him with
be grasping the "responsibility of protecting 
the Big Fire ranch against
range rivals. Instead, she has given
attention to little except gala parties.
As the ranch foreman, Asbell is being 
forced to make, the decisions and
face the problems alone.
In going the rounds of line camps
on the Big Five, Asbell found the
Link's report to Sue has angered her.
because of his suggestion that Packy
was murdered as a result of the old
feud of Jonas Dalmar and Bardo
Sampson with Sue's father. Jonas is
the father of one of Sue's suitors,
Frank Dalmar and co-owner with
Sampson of the Double Diamond
ranch.
Asbell has other reason for anger,
Jonas Dalmar has made no pretense
of concern over happenings to either
Packy or Link and incited one of his
cowboys. Sage Wingo to attack Link.
Link licked Wingo but he is aware
that Dalmar will not be discouraged
by that.
He has evidence of Packy's murder
that Sue cannot deny, for in an autopsy, 
Doc Jerome found a bullet in the
head of the charred corpse.
WELL TELL TOWARD the southern
end of Running M ground,
Link Asbell found Nels Madison
and Rupe Hahn at work on a
heavy Merivale ranch wagon.
Rupe was flat on his back under
the big rig and Nels down on
hands and knees beside it, offering 
tools and advice.. Pulled up
nearby, with a harnessed team
for the Merivale at lead, was the
Running M buckboard.
At Link Asbell's approach, Nels
Madison looked up, pushed his hat
to the back of his head and made
good-natured comment.
"Wish I was riding boss of a
big, fat ranch with nothing to do
but drift around looking wise and
prosperous on a fine, fresh day.
My friend, howdy! Just riding
through, or do you carry something 
on your mind so important
you want to unload it?"
Asbell stepped down, groundreined 
the buckskin, then squatted 
on his heels.
"Something on my mind, all
right, Nels," he admitted. "I'll let
you be the judge of its imporHe 
told of Packy Lane and the
burned line cabin. The good-natured 
ease faded from Nels Madison's 
broad face and a pull of
grimness thinned his lips.
"Link!" he exploded. "You're
certain Packy had been shot?"
"Plumb! It's Doc Jerome's professional 
word that Packy Lane
was shot through the head with
a rifle slug."
"After which the cabin was
burned in an effort to cover up?"
"No doubt of it."
Nets spat. "Some damned twolegged 
ghoul must be loose in the
hills. Would the idea have been
robbery, maybe?"
Asbell shook his head. "Doubt
it. Nothing to rob, for Packy
never bothered to draw wages
while holding down the line camp
through the summer. He just let
his time stack up in the book. I
doubt he had four-bits in his

jeans when he was killed."
"Why — why would anybody
want to murder a harmless old
fellow like Packy? It's so damn
pointless it don't make sense,"
"Maybe It doesn't," Asbell said,
bleakness creeping into bis tone.
"Then again—maybe it does!''
Nels Madison stored at him,
glance quick and boring.
"If there's more, let's have It!"
Asbell told of the ruckus in the
Imperial Again Nels stared,
frowning.
"You realize what you're saying. 
Link?"
"I know exactly what I'm saying," 
was Asbell's quick retort.
He waved an encompassing
hand, indicating the upreared,
bulk of the Saddleback Hills.
"What's up there, Nels? Range.
man—summer range! Grass in
the parks and meadows, water in
the draws. What cattle on that
range? Running M and Big Five.
But no Double Diamond. Mark
that point. No Dalmar and Sampson 
stuff. Why not? Look!"
Asbell spun on his heels sue
pointed again.
"There the Saddlebacks leave
off and the Palisades begin. How
are you going to get cattle over
that Palisade Rim? You're not
Neither is anybody else, includeing 
Dalmar and Sampson. So, no
Double Diamond stock gets past
the Palisades. And no Double
Diamond stock can get into the
Saddlebacks further north unless
across Running M or Big Five
range. Which you're not allowing
and I'm not allowing. Which
leaves Dalmar and Sampson—
where? Why, hungry as wolves
for summer range and no way to
get it Unless—!"
"Unless — what?" demanded
Nels Madison, harshly.
"Unless something happens to
Big. Five, or to Running M—or to
both!"
Nels Madison stared straight
ahead and the harshness of his
tone deepened.
"I don't believe a word you're
saying—but keep on!"
"You mean you don't want to
believe it," Asbell charged. "Well
I don't want to believe it, either
But if you got a better answer
let's hear it."
Nels shook his head, saying,
nothing. Now Rupe Hahn spoke.
"Makes sense to me—what
Link says. There's damn little
aweetness and light in either
Jonas Dalmar or Bardo Sampson.
Bardo, he's like some knot-headed
bull critter, not caring who or
what he tramples down. Jonas
Dalmar, he's just as mean, but in
a different, sly way. Always
packs a sneer, a sarcastic one
like he finds pleasure in throwing 
the rawhide at everybody
else."
"I think you're both loco," Nels
Madison declared, but with no
great amount of conviction.
"Twenty-four hours ago," Asbell 
said pointedly, "Big Five had
a rider and a line camp up in the

Saddlebacks; so it could keep an
eye on its share of that summer
range I just mentioned. Now the
rider is dead and the line camp
burned"
Asbell straightened up, climbed
back into his saddle and said,
"Mart this, Nels. If what I figure
is shaping up turns out to be a
fact, then Running M is in line
for trouble, same as Big Five.
For the same reason and from
the, same source. So keep your
eyes open and do your riding upwind. 
Now I'll leave you to your
fixing chore."
Nels spoke with, sober emphasis 
"Link—I'm not as bit a fool
as I sometimes appear, I'll be
looking and listening and if I run
across anything crawling in the
weds, I'll sure let you know."
Asbell's smile was quick and
faintly grim. "Fair enough. And
any time I'm not around to hand
out advice, Just you listen to
Rupe, here. Nobody's slipping him
any wooden money."
Saying so, he set the" buckskin's 
head toward town.
Within half an hour after Asbell 
left, the wagon repair job
was done. The team brought in
at lead behind the buckboard was
hitched to the Merivale and Rupee
Hahn climbed to the seat ot the
big wagon. Nels Madison moved
over to the buckboard, paused
there.
"I'll go oh ahead and check our
measurements again, Rupee. You'll
have to take the long way
around."
Nodding, Rupee kicked off the
brake and clucked to his team and
the big wagon creaked into movement. 
Nels, after loading several
tools in the buckboard, cut away
with It at an angle toward the
base of the Saddlebacks.
Ahead lay the chore of building 
a corral and branding chute
near the southern end of Running
M range. The spot selected was
just off the mouth of a small
gulch tunneling out of the hill
slope.
Reaching here, Nels pulled up,
set the brake, dropped out of the
buckboard and began pacing off
the roughly staked layout of the
corral. At the western end of this
he paused, the broad of his back
and shoulders turned to the hill
slope.
At the mouth of the gulch there
was the glint of sunlight on gun
metal. Right after, came the hard
thin, lancing smash of rifle report. 

An invisible, but potent force
knocked Nels Madison off his feet,
drove him face down on the earth,
where he lay stupefied, held with
vague wonder as to what had
happened.
All he was certain of was that

WHAT HAS HAPPENED
By MATT STUART

distributed by King Features Syndicate.
The only girl Link Asbell has ever
cared about is angering him with
be grasping the "responsibility of protecting 
the Big Fire ranch against
range rivals. Instead, she has given
attention to little except gala parties.
As the ranch foreman, Asbell is being 
forced to make, the decisions and
face the problems alone.
In going the rounds of line camps
on the Big Five, Asbell found the
Link's report to Sue has angered her.
because of his suggestion that Packy
was murdered as a result of the old
feud of Jonas Dalmar and Bardo
Sampson with Sue's father. Jonas is
the father of one of Sue's suitors,
Frank Dalmar and co-owner with
Sampson of the Double Diamond
ranch.
Asbell has other reason for anger,
Jonas Dalmar has made no pretense
of concern over happenings to either
Packy or Link and incited one of his
cowboys. Sage Wingo to attack Link.
Link licked Wingo but he is aware
that Dalmar will not be discouraged
by that.
He has evidence of Packy's murder
that Sue cannot deny, for in an autopsy, 
Doc Jerome found a bullet in the
head of the charred corpse.
WELL TELL TOWARD the southern
end of Running M ground,
Link Asbell found Nels Madison
and Rupe Hahn at work on a
heavy Merivale ranch wagon.
Rupe was flat on his back under
the big rig and Nels down on
hands and knees beside it, offering 
tools and advice.. Pulled up
nearby, with a harnessed team
for the Merivale at lead, was the
Running M buckboard.
At Link Asbell's approach, Nels
Madison looked up, pushed his hat
to the back of his head and made
good-natured comment.
"Wish I was riding boss of a
big, fat ranch with nothing to do
but drift around looking wise and
prosperous on a fine, fresh day.
My friend, howdy! Just riding
through, or do you carry something 
on your mind so important
you want to unload it?"
Asbell stepped down, groundreined 
the buckskin, then squatted 
on his heels.
"Something on my mind, all
right, Nels," he admitted. "I'll let
you be the judge of its imporHe 
told of Packy Lane and the
burned line cabin. The good-natured 
ease faded from Nels Madison's 
broad face and a pull of
grimness thinned his lips.
"Link!" he exploded. "You're
certain Packy had been shot?"
"Plumb! It's Doc Jerome's professional 
word that Packy Lane
was shot through the head with
a rifle slug."
"After which the cabin was
burned in an effort to cover up?"
"No doubt of it."
Nets spat. "Some damned twolegged 
ghoul must be loose in the
hills. Would the idea have been
robbery, maybe?"
Asbell shook his head. "Doubt
it. Nothing to rob, for Packy
never bothered to draw wages
while holding down the line camp
through the summer. He just let
his time stack up in the book. I
doubt he had four-bits in his

jeans when he was killed."
"Why — why would anybody
want to murder a harmless old
fellow like Packy? It's so damn
pointless it don't make sense,"
"Maybe It doesn't," Asbell said,
bleakness creeping into bis tone.
"Then again—maybe it does!''
Nels Madison stored at him,
glance quick and boring.
"If there's more, let's have It!"
Asbell told of the ruckus in the
Imperial Again Nels stared,
frowning.
"You realize what you're saying. 
Link?"
"I know exactly what I'm saying," 
was Asbell's quick retort.
He waved an encompassing
hand, indicating the upreared,
bulk of the Saddleback Hills.
"What's up there, Nels? Range.
man—summer range! Grass in
the parks and meadows, water in
the draws. What cattle on that
range? Running M and Big Five.
But no Double Diamond. Mark
that point. No Dalmar and Sampson 
stuff. Why not? Look!"
Asbell spun on his heels sue
pointed again.
"There the Saddlebacks leave
off and the Palisades begin. How
are you going to get cattle over
that Palisade Rim? You're not
Neither is anybody else, includeing 
Dalmar and Sampson. So, no
Double Diamond stock gets past
the Palisades. And no Double
Diamond stock can get into the
Saddlebacks further north unless
across Running M or Big Five
range. Which you're not allowing
and I'm not allowing. Which
leaves Dalmar and Sampson—
where? Why, hungry as wolves
for summer range and no way to
get it Unless—!"
"Unless — what?" demanded
Nels Madison, harshly.
"Unless something happens to
Big. Five, or to Running M—or to
both!"
Nels Madison stared straight
ahead and the harshness of his
tone deepened.
"I don't believe a word you're
saying—but keep on!"
"You mean you don't want to
believe it," Asbell charged. "Well
I don't want to believe it, either
But if you got a better answer
let's hear it."
Nels shook his head, saying,
nothing. Now Rupe Hahn spoke.
"Makes sense to me—what
Link says. There's damn little
aweetness and light in either
Jonas Dalmar or Bardo Sampson.
Bardo, he's like some knot-headed
bull critter, not caring who or
what he tramples down. Jonas
Dalmar, he's just as mean, but in
a different, sly way. Always
packs a sneer, a sarcastic one
like he finds pleasure in throwing 
the rawhide at everybody
else."
"I think you're both loco," Nels
Madison declared, but with no
great amount of conviction.
"Twenty-four hours ago," Asbell 
said pointedly, "Big Five had
a rider and a line camp up in the

Saddlebacks; so it could keep an
eye on its share of that summer
range I just mentioned. Now the
rider is dead and the line camp
burned"
Asbell straightened up, climbed
back into his saddle and said,
"Mart this, Nels. If what I figure
is shaping up turns out to be a
fact, then Running M is in line
for trouble, same as Big Five.
For the same reason and from
the, same source. So keep your
eyes open and do your riding upwind. 
Now I'll leave you to your
fixing chore."
Nels spoke with, sober emphasis 
"Link—I'm not as bit a fool
as I sometimes appear, I'll be
looking and listening and if I run
across anything crawling in the
weds, I'll sure let you know."
Asbell's smile was quick and
faintly grim. "Fair enough. And
any time I'm not around to hand
out advice, Just you listen to
Rupe, here. Nobody's slipping him
any wooden money."
Saying so, he set the" buckskin's 
head toward town.
Within half an hour after Asbell 
left, the wagon repair job
was done. The team brought in
at lead behind the buckboard was
hitched to the Merivale and Rupee
Hahn climbed to the seat ot the
big wagon. Nels Madison moved
over to the buckboard, paused
there.
"I'll go oh ahead and check our
measurements again, Rupee. You'll
have to take the long way
around."
Nodding, Rupee kicked off the
brake and clucked to his team and
the big wagon creaked into movement. 
Nels, after loading several
tools in the buckboard, cut away
with It at an angle toward the
base of the Saddlebacks.
Ahead lay the chore of building 
a corral and branding chute
near the southern end of Running
M range. The spot selected was
just off the mouth of a small
gulch tunneling out of the hill
slope.
Reaching here, Nels pulled up,
set the brake, dropped out of the
buckboard and began pacing off
the roughly staked layout of the
corral. At the western end of this
he paused, the broad of his back
and shoulders turned to the hill
slope.
At the mouth of the gulch there
was the glint of sunlight on gun
metal. Right after, came the hard
thin, lancing smash of rifle report. 

An invisible, but potent force
knocked Nels Madison off his feet,
drove him face down on the earth,
where he lay stupefied, held with
vague wonder as to what had
happened.
All he was certain of was that
he'd been struck a savagely heavy
blow, and that things were slipping 
away from him, while at the
far, far edge of a dimming world,
the echoes of n gunshot were running 
out into nothingness.

"It Will Never"

tive in civic and community worker, 
she has given volunteer service
to the Red Cross and the Grey
Lady at Kennedy Veteran hospital.
Miss Crawford said: at one time
Negroes were Memphis' most loyal
citizens "Memphis would not be
what it is today had it not been for
She Negroes, who did not run, as the
while citizens did-when the town
was stricken from yellow-fever in
1881. The Negroes fought the fever,
buried the dead, guarded the banks
and policed the town until the
white citizens returned."
She went to quote from the Bible
As basis to show that racial segregation 
is wrong. She explained "in
Genesis 1-.6, it says 'and God said,
let us make man in our image, after 
our likeness, and lot hime have
dominion over the fish of the sea
and over the fowl of the air, and
every thing that creepeth upon the
earth.' This does not refer to races,
but to man." said Miss Crawford.
She next referred to the U. S.
Constitutional laws. "They were
made for all citizens. Some white
people don't want Negroes to praticipate 
in government. The late
President Roosevelt said that to be
an American is not a matter of
race, creed or color,. Therefore, we
must ask for everything that we
are entitled to. We do not want
handouts—but we want freedom, liberty 
and justice for all."
Discussing social conditions
closer, Mrs. Crawford, expressed
this view: "the total citizenship is
not to be totally blamed. There is
such a tiling as self-enslavement,

brought about by the refusal to
use the power found in registering
and voting. My appeal to you is to
get behind our courageous leaders as
O. Z. Evers, Atty. Russell B. sugarmon, 
Jr. Atty. James F. Estes
and others.

School Segregationists
Lose Ground In Virginia
There is evidence that other Virginia 
officials and leaders besides Governor J. Lindsay Almond,
Jr., can and will change their attitude ot least on school desegregation. 

Massive resistance is not only
dwindling down at the Governor's
mansion here in Richmond, but in
other places. Already Attorney John
S. Battle, Jr., who represented the
Charlottesville school board in the
desegregation court battles in that
city has warned that private schools
accepting tuition grants from the
state are vulnerable if they admit
only white pupils.
Last week the Norfolk morningpaper 
pointed out in a leading editorial 
that the three members of
the State pupil placement board
have changed on the matter of
what they can do since last August
when the case of four Negro pupils
came up for admittance to white
schools.
The editorial comment in part
is as follows:
Between the August hearing in
Judge Walter E. Hoffman's court
on the assignment of Negro pupils
to previously all white schools, and
the October hearing of Thursday,
there was a change of attitude in
all three members of the State Pupil 
Placement Board.
At the August, hearing the three
members of the board — Beverly
Randolph, Andrew A. Farley, and
Hugh V. White — took a rigid, unyielding 
attitude in which they
stated their unwillingness and personal 
incapacity to assign a Negro
child to a white school. The attitude
was put in different words, but the
rigidity of posture was the same.
Giants led pro league in offense
and defense.

Wilkins Rejects

"Judge Leibowitz should be ashamed 
of himself," Mr. Wilkins declared. 
"In addition to advancing
an untenable — even Hitler – like
theory, he amused the suspicion
theory, no Negro or Puerto Rican who
comes before him can expect consideration 
of his rights id law as
an individual," he said.

YOUR PICTURES IN MEMORY
(Booker T. Washington exists as
an institution in which its pupils
will find academics, vocational
civic and social relationship available 
to the extent that they become 
socially integrated and able
to adjust himself in his relationship 
to bis home, his school, his
country, and his God.
We believe that Booker T. Washington 
High School boys and girls
should receive inspiration and
guidance toward a higher appreciation 
for intellectual attainment,
vocational skills, and personal and
social spiritual values.
Let us get away from our matterof-fact 
surroundings-for a moment
as we step into a world of fantasy.
Imagine yourself, walking down a
long hall, on the walls of which
pictures are hanging. This is not
your first visit to the hall nor will
it be your last. You spend much
of your time in the gallery looking
at the pictures which adorn the
walls.
Some of the pictures are beautiful 
and it is a delight to see them.
Others are so ugly that you shudder 
when your eyes fall upon them.
Some are amusing, others are inspiring 
or depressing.
All our lives we will be hanging
pictures, though we seldom give
much thought to their selection, we
seem to pick them up at random
and put them on the wall.. It is
strange that we should do this, for
once the pictures have been added
to the collection we go back to
them time after time, day after
day. Some of them will fade with
time, but Others will be with us
as long as we live.
Our experiences of today are Our
memories to tomorrow. What are
we contributing (today for our future 
memories? How will the things
we are now doing look in retrospect? 
What pictures are we hanging 
today ........ the picture will
be seen tomorrow. Will the memory
of what we do today haunt us or
inspire us? These are the questions
to consider as we build our gallery
from day to day.

at the pictures which adorn the
walls.
Some of the pictures are beautiful 
and it is a delight to see them.
Others are so ugly that you shudder 
when your eyes fall upon them.
Some are amusing, others are inspiring 
or depressing.
All our lives we will be hanging
pictures, though we seldom give
much thought to their selection, we
seem to pick them up at random
and put them on the wall.. It is
strange that we should do this, for
once the pictures have been added
to the collection we go back to
them time after time, day after
day. Some of them will fade with
time, but Others will be with us
as long as we live.
Our experiences of today are Our
memories to tomorrow. What are
we contributing (today for our future 
memories? How will the things
we are now doing look in retrospect? 
What pictures are we hanging 
today ........ the picture will
be seen tomorrow. Will the memory
of what we do today haunt us or
inspire us? These are the questions
to consider as we build our gallery
from day to day.
We would like to take this opportunity 
to turn a view on a group
of students who are to be at BTW

a Dog's
Life
By Dr. E. M. Gildow
Director, Friskies Research Kennels
Every dog owner should know
how to handle an injured dog,
It may be your own pet that
some day will need your help
when no one at the scene of the
accident is familiar with proper
first aid techniques.
Muzzle the dog immediately,
for no matter how gentle and
loving he la, when in pain he's
scared and may bite. A muzzle
can quickly be made out of a
strip of bandage, heavy string
or a man's handkerchief. Loop
It around the dog's mouth,
knotting It under the chin.
Bring the long ends around the
head and tie it again to prevent
the muzzle from slipping.
To lift the small dog, grasp
the nape of the neck with one
hand and the loose skin over
the hips with the other. This
prevents the dog from twisting
and further injuring his legs,
for they hang down when he is
lifted. Big dogs are best moved
to a board, a rug or blanket
and carried stretcher style.
If the dog is bleeding profusely, 
apply a tourniquet until
professional help is attained.
Apply it near the wound but
between the wound and the
heart Loosen it every ten minutes 
to allow the blood to flow
again.
If the dog appears to be in
shock... is numbed, dazed and
cool to the touch . . . wrap him
in blankets, try to keep him
lying down with his head lower 
than the rest of his body. Do
not try to force liquids down
his throat for they may run
into his lungs.
If you suspect a broken bone,
handle the-dog as little as possible. 
Keep the affected side uppermost 
and the injured limb
straight and Immobilized while
taking him to the hospital.
 Don't overfeed
your dog on rich, starchy foods,
A good, all-purpose dog food
such as Friskies contains every
known necessary protein, mineral 
and vitamin.
