OUR DEMOCRACY
by Mat
WHEN ITS APPLE BLOSSOM TIME■
In the spring of the year., the tattered old man used to
START WANDERING. THE BIG SWOLLEN RIVER HE FLOATED DOWN
BECAME A RAGGED DIRT ROAD AND THEN THE ROAD WIDENED
INTO PRAIRIE, YET THE MAN KEPT HOBBLING ON.
EVERYWHERE JOHN CHAPMAN WENT, HE DUSTED THE FRESH GREEN
SPRING EARTH WITH SEEDS, APPLE SEEDS, AND SO THEY
CALLED HIM JOHNNVAPPLESEEO.

All his life, johnny kept plan i ing tiny seeds for the
FUTURE. AND TODAY, AS SPRING BEGINS TO WARM THE BIG
BROAD LAND HE LOVED, AMERICANS ARE PLANTING FOR.THE1R.
OWN FUTURE THROUGH INCREASED SAVINGS AND LIFE INSURANCE —
WHICH WILL GROW AND RIPEN OUST AS SURELY AS
JOHNNY& APPLE SEEDS.
