Wae wers sxpressing @ political opinien & day or two ago ond one of
our well-meaning friends advised us to take it easy on such a controversial
subjeet. This persan went on tq state that there are a lot of people on both
sides of anything contraversial and that the stroight-forward expression of
our views would net win additional friends, but might olienate some that
we already hod.
Have you ever wondered why it is se hard for @ democratic form of
government to toke hold in some of the countries of the far east? it has been
oyr contention that this is becouse so few people are literate and capable
of having ond expressing @an opinion. Becouse they comnet read and write
ond de not have television and radio they cannot form or express an opinion
that is alf their own and have to blindly follaw seif-appojnted leaders.
We could hove embarassed our well-meaning friend by asking him whose
opinien we should express if we did not express our own. We could have
embarassed him further by osking him if we were to remain quiet ond un
thinking in @ nation whose form of government absalutely depends on the in
telligence of the peaple in expressing their will ot the pells. We could have
asked him if there was any person or faction in pewer who should exercise
"theught contral'' over us.
It has been eur observation that some of the soundest political, secial
ond economic thinking in America is done by people who talk about such
things in cracker barrel sessions of sountry stores, ot @ mill gate or during
the coffee break at a local drug store. The pecple wha really run America
are not the so-called great leaders who sometimes blind us with their ora
tory. These people actucily follow the man in the country stere, ot the mill
gate, .and the coffee break. They try hard te find out what we want and
make us think that they will provide it for ws.
It is doubtful if there has ever been @ time in our histery when America
peeds the intelligence of each and every citizen more than right now. Prac
tically every issue that ever faced our nation is focing us to @an even greater
extent at this moment. The race issue is as complex now as it was in 1860;
peace effarts nmow are as complicated as they were ot any time prior to
World War 1l; schools are having as much difficulty now as they have had
at any time since America accepted the principle of free public schools.
In addition to the above, whether we like it or not, the leadership of
all of the nations of the free warld has been forced wpon us ond there can
hardly be @ wor anywhere in the whole worid in which we will net be forced
to toke a leading port as the strongest power in the free world.
Whether we like it or nat, we have also assymed the mergl leadership
of the free world. The thing that makes this embarassing is that the werid
Is following what we do instead of what we say. It has never heen more
incumbent en the American citizen to let the whole world see democracy at
work in our country than right now.
Yes, let's think and talk about America. Let's express our opinians
axactly as we see them and bhe careful to respect the right of all of our
friends 1q do the same with us. Let's have disagreements and frank discus
sions end by so deing learn from each other. Let's learn te werk together
in disagreement.
America needs the heart and brains of the 160,000,000 peopie whe make
it elick. Will you let America down by avoiding clear thinking and clean
cut expression of your ideas?
NUTRITION
In our daily life
[theirs-plan and arrange the daily
!routine to include a proper bal
'ance of work and play, exercise
and rest. And they plan attrac
'tive, nourishing menus-remem
'bering always that proper nutri
ltion provides an important base
lupon which to build enthusiasm
(for happy living. ¢
| To provide proper nutrition
(for the family, one must under-
Lstand many things. Not the least
;aznong these is the fact that diets
{may be lacking in mnatural vita
!mins and minerals for which the
need in human nutrition has
|been established. This may be
|because of poor dietary habits,
)impxoper selection of foods, un
fbalanced menus or the loss of a
{portion of the water-soluble vita
{mins through excessive cooking.
|storage and processing.
| What do we value most in
[life? HEALTH. Without it money,
[art. talent, success are incom
iplete. With good health any
ithing is possible. What is health?
| The absence of disease. But good
|health-a precious possession- is
(a feeling of buoyancy, energy,
|stamina, zest for life, optimism
land beauty from within, in
lgood hair, skin, teeth, nails, etc.'
|How can we get good health?
| Sufficient sleep, fresh air, exer
|cise, care of mind and body and
{above all, good nutrition. (Even
|plants and animals do not grow
|well unless properly fed.) How
|can we get good nutrition? We
ishould get it from our food. But,
|unfortunately, with today’'s high
[state of civilization, even though
|we are the best fed nation in the
\world with the highest standard
|of living, adequate nutrition from
food alene s generally insuffici
ent. What is good nutrition-
Good nutrition results from eat
ing adequate variety and amounts
of foeod containing an adequate
and sufficient amount of those
food facétors or nutrients which
are essential to life to the degree
| where the bodyv is able to absorb
those nutrients for the proper
Igutilization of food and resultant

Annual Boy Scout
Banquet At
P‘dale Tuesday
| The Newton-Rockdale District,
|Boy Scouts of America, annual
banquet will be held Tuesday

the Covington First Methodist
lChurch, will be the guest speak
er.
t Tickets are available through

tives or leaders.
{quate over-all balance of:
! Fats, Carbohydrates, Pro
teins, Vita: ‘s and Minerals. But
protein is not adequately utilized
lwi\h sufficient vitamins and vi
{tamins are not utitzed with out
| sufficient minerals. Why cant
iwe get these nutrients in our
food today? 1) Changing dietary
habits. We eat less ealories than
our forefathers, and consequently
have less of the minute amounts
of food factors. 2) Poor and in
adequate eating habits. Orange
juice-toast routine, 10 a.m. let
down filied in with sweet-roll
land coffee; sandwich-coke lunch;
|4 p.m. let-down for a snack; big
\dinner. Body worked hard all
night in chemically renewing it
self, needs fuel in morning.
Breakfast should be most im
| portant meal of day. One ecan't
!make up with a big dinner for
;the harm done all day. We eat
| what the eye admires rather
ithan %what the body requires. 3)
Storage, transportation, process
|ing and eooking losses. Light,
theat and air destroy nutrients.
Fruits such as oranges, grape
fruit, lemons, peaches, pears,
plums, etc., generally picked
igreen and allowed to ripen in
storage. They are picked before
they have attained their ade
{quate nutrients and by the time
((1 to 10 months later) we pur
|chase the fresh fruit, it has been
Edepleted 40 to 80 percent in nu
irriem's. We do not know where
four fresh vegetables have been
|grown, or how long enroute ar
!in storage they had been. Then
'the remaining nutrients are pour
ted down the drain after cooking,.
or go off in stead. Canned pro
'ducts are subjected to very high
heat. White bleached flour, the
| basis of the stable table, has had
!21 natural nutritents taken out
land 4 synthetic ones restored.
{ Polished white rice has ne au
| tritional value-the nutrients have
'been removed. Insecticides and
|chemical additives, preservatives,
{coloring, ete., in food processing,
Isome of which are apparently
[harmless, nevertheless displace
| essential nutrients. .
i What happens if we don't get
all the nutrients we need? We
{develop subclinica! deficiencies
in vitamins or m'nerals over a
|perod of time, and these are a
|stress on the body, because they
lare not easily diagnosed. Our
|body must compensate and pro
[tect us and we don't know what
m' going on unless we are alert
{to those small, frequently am
| biguous, symptoms, such as fa
|tigue, weakness, nervousness,
jirvitablity, vague aches and
‘pains. a.5.0.
| It pays to be safe and sure
land protect ourselves by adding
Inatural vitamins and minerals
|to our daily diet. like many thou
|sands of families all over the
{country have already done in
lorder to take guesswork out of
E living.
! Scieatific knowledge lights the

- THE THOUGHT-—-One of the
| most thoughbpravoking bits of |
{infermation to come from church |
|history is the story of the twoi
Martins. It is said that at the be
‘ginning of the Reformation Mar- |
|tin of Basle came to 8 knowledge |
|of the truth, but, afraid ta make |
|a public confession, he wrote on |
'a leaf of parchment: “O most |
| merciful Christ, I know that I
{can be saved only by the merit of |
|Thy blood. Holy Jesus, I acknowl- l
iedge Thy sufferings for me. Ii
llove Thee.” Then he removed al
|stone from the wall of his cham- |
{ber and hid the parchment there. |
{lt was not discovered for more |
'than a hundred years. i
| About the same time Martin
| Luther found the truthvin Christ. |
|He said, “My Lord has confessed |
'me before men: I will not shrink !
|from confessing Him before |
|kings." The world knows what |
followed, and today reveres the |
ymemory of Luther. But as for |
| Martin of Basle, wha cares for |
{him?
| And so it goes in the history of
tman. It pleased the Lord, in His |
;wisdom, to plan for man to learn |
aof Him through His instrumems.l
|'The Word tells us, “How shall
they hear without a preachet‘.”;
{Each day we, as His children, |
(have the opportunity of presont-?
i.ing Christ to a world in need of%
{Him; yet somg us are guilty of |
‘hiding our light under a bushel.i
(It is a truth that the day will |
|came when we will be put into |
‘one of two camps: the Martin |
lof Basle camp or the Martin!
{Luther camp. ‘
