The year, which saw major events of vorld-wide importance, also marked the nd of an era of peace for our own coun- ry and the beginning of war. Tn many ways the year was good to us V that it allowed our nation time to arm jbelf for the conflict to come. Regardless If the surprise of the initial attacks, the "nited States was not wholly unprepared. Now we enter a new year, and while the ’picture is not rosy and has forebodings of ighty struggle, there is every, reason to / Uve complete confidence in ultimate vic- ||ory for our country and its allies. Every person can do something to help ‘ juring that victory abcut. Not all of us can Uy planes, man ships or charge the enemy idth tanks. Not all of us are physically jd; to serve in any capacity in either Sranch of the service. But there is some- hing everyone can do. Farmers can produce food, and a boun- j>eous supply of food is just as essential as Planes, ships, guns and ammunition; de- jense workers can make arms; all am or have any income can^oJ^t » pail if it in defense bonds to^^^^^f^nce war; Sere are few who c^i^^^onate some- ^ing to the R^i!Jp?SS', which directly aids rt-'aflffea lorces; all can conserve needed laterials, prevent waste and salvage that t’hich is needed. We who do not bear arms^should under- tand that there is something we can do ;'nd while that something may seem of lit- le importance to us, it may be all impor- ant. As the new year begins it should be our ">^rm determination to do whatever we can 3 help win the war, to conquer Japan, ermany, Italy and all their sympathizers. In so doing we will be doing the great- -st service possible to people now and to Millions yet unborn. ( _ place where the tiUle guy ia king.

CREOMULSION for Cquglif, Chest Cof)$, Bronchitis The Little Guy What distinguishes this country from he other great nations of the world? fhere are many possible answers to that luestion. And here’s one of the be.st: 'The United States is the country where he little guy is boss—where the little guy 'an go as far as his energies and abilities illow—where the little guy doe.sn’t have bow and scrape to anyone.” Little guys made this country. They ame here from everywhere to establish eedom and escape tyranny. They land- in a wilderness. They were often cold d hungry. They seldom became rich, ut they kept the faith. They built the yjmes and cleared the land and raised the hHdren. They fought the wars of the ast, just as they are fighting this war. he little guys were proud and strong and pnfident of the future, and the great land 1 which we live is their gift to us, the lit- ie guys of the present. Little guys built the industries of this ountry. They saved a few dollars and put hem into a store or a bank or a factory of pme kind. They tcok chances. Much of he time they lost, but that didn’,^ dismay hem. They saved a few more dollars and 3ok new chances. They didn’t laugh ,'hen some visionary came along with an iea the wiseacres said was obviously in- iHe—the telephone, for instance, or the [u^mobile, or a plan for lighting homes electricity. Ttere might be something and they played the r the visionaries with the e same kind of people—little to get ahead, little guys trying d create. And some of them shacks to mansions in a year or a yepr or, two later were'back in iks stafftibA agkin..

These warning sig nals shall be displayed as long as such, ve hicle is disabled upon the highways.” In other words, it is unlawful to park on the main traveled portion of any highway except when you have a break-down of a type that makes it impossible to avoid do ing so, and except when the width, type or condition of the shoulder is such that you just can’t park off the road. Parking on a highway bridge is strictly tabu and you must never park on a highway at night without leaving your parking lights on. FROM RERUN (Twin City Sentinel) A German radio station sent out this message on Christmas day to the American people . . . “Even though you are enemies, we wish you a Merry Christmas . . ” Pragmatic realists and cynics will bridle at this and want to know if here is not ano ther Hitlerian trick a propaganda stunt from Herr Goebbels. But deep down in the hearts of many German people, no doubt, the Christian spirit of love and universal brotherhood throbs as strongly as it does in the hearts of many sincere American Christiana. In deed, it does not stagger the imagination to conceive of the possibility that in tevery warring land today are myriads of people who earnestly pray for peace and who are sincere hoping that men of good will in the “enemy” countries may have a “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.’ Cer tainly this woyld be our own wish, how ever serious we must be and will, our endeavor to defend these ramparts vi\e watch. * afe member-borrow ers irfvited to at’end. but also other farmers and stockmen, business and professional people who are interested in co-opera tive credit -ff>r agriculture.
