At the same time I hoped that my words would convey a love 'and respect for yourself as well as for the “Dry Land Bath ing Beauties.” I hope that you and others will not think me an unknown assailant attacking your honor and dignity or con sider this letter an effort to get the best of an argument. \lnstead, please let me re main an anonymous friend who would like to his opin ions candidly in the firm be lief that deep convictions hum bly shared will bring profit to all concerned. pi your comments in last week’s paper it seemed to me that you did not deal with the main thougts expressed in my letter. Much jC made of my making peojne “even more a ware of sexual drive”; but by taking this out of its context you missed the import of what. I was trying to say: that your Article, by suggesting that this drive in itself is sinful, creates deeper conflicts. The letter may itself make people even more aware of sex- B4jMkdrive- a good thing if true respect ac- very bad thing if it cases pedple to think evil of a woman because - ■ ■ . < "DEVTON FARM SUPPLY ~ BP CHECKERBOARD J|^|| Os Deyton and Royce Lee Howell Bulky-Las is often the best at all times. v (friend the dairyman has.

You have your choice of a complete Chow, or of one to go with your grain. All plans use New Purina Bite-Size Checkers to help cut growing costa by cutting feed waste.

Pullets grown in confinement sometimes have a tendency to pick feathers. Ranged birds on good pasture seldom show this tendency. If signs of feather picking appear, we suggest debeaking immediately. Our service man will be glad to lend the geak cutter and show you how to use it. Heifers Need More Than Pasture We’re sorry that the truth is that far too often dairy heifers are allowed to shift for them selves', on pasture around here. Tests show that heifers turn ed to pasture at 6, 8 or 10 mon ths of age and allowed no other source of feed made very slow growth. They gained only 53% of normal standard of growth. Even though pastures were relatively short, due to dry weather, those getting grain ration in addition to pasture made normal gains. Three pounds of a Purina Body Ration, fed daily, will help get heifers to breeding weight earlier and will build big, sturdy heifers with good capacity for making milk. Ask , about the Purina Heifer Grow ing Program—the one that de i veloped in one year 14 first calf Holstein heifers that averaged 10,691 lbs. milk and 40 lbs. fat in their first lactation at the Purina Research Earm.

Sixty-one million persons j paid taxes to the Federal Social j Security system last year, , amounting to 15,039,686,000. \ 6,469,000 received benefits 1 amounting to $5,275,556,000 j The balance of $1,853,120,000 1 was paid out for administrative \ expenses and- general costs of j government. j • ••• , For years the American peo- pie have been encouraged to < “spend, spend, spend. Don’t ; bother to save anything for the proverbial rainy day. Just pay Social Security taxes, and when you get old or reach retirement age the Government will take good care of you. Or if you lose I your job on your own fault or the employer’s;—don’t worry or try too soon to find other work. Just live off -your Social Secur ity benefits.’’ ** * * With a national policy and attitude like that, one wonders how many years must run be fore that word "Security” will take on a prefix making it “IN-SECURITY.” And how long before the word “SOC IAL” will grow into “SOCIAL ISM.” For when a nation’s people begin to depend upon Federal Aid more and more, instead of stiffening their spin al column and using their brains, final outcome can vA*y easily be a SOCIAL STATE, expression. The trouble is that many sincere folks try to repress these feelings or even deny them. Sex is something that will ruin a man if he trys to , stop it; it will ruin hfcn if he ’ lets it run wild; but if he understands it and properly directs it, it is like a magic elixer that brings the joy of ( life into all that he does. It seems to me that one ounce of effort used to help people understand the role of sex and its place in life would accomplish far more than a pound of effort employed to limit its misuse. As far as modesty is con cerned, so-called standards vary with time and climate and among individuals and groups. Some women believe that mod esty requires them to cover their faces with a veil, others for the same reason will cover their bosom (sometimes with most amazing results!). Fash ions change and with them so called standards of modesty. Some folks are slower to chan ge than others and often try to judge others by their own stan dards. There are many sincere Christians who would disap prove of your statement that it is perfectly all right for a woman to wear a bathing suit in a swimming pool. They would consider it extremely immodest Seven though the girl stayed in the water. True modesty is an j attitude of mind that will ex press itself in different ways with different people and can not be determined by arbitrary standards of dress. That is why I do not believe that hav ing police measure the length of a skirt or the area of skin exposed will ever contribute anything to the real modesty of ; women—or men. Now I am rather reluctant to advise Uncle Josh about how to get honey without - getting stung, but I have heard tell that in getting honey fear and ignorance can cause disaster, but with faith and understand . ing many have found ways to . succeed. I was told of a boy ‘ who liked bees and liked honey. | Sometimes his body would be ; covered with bees and never a . sting,—until one day his moth er came on him unexpectedly. Worried about his safety she shouted for him to get away from the bees. He cringed in fear and immediately received several stings. Maybe Uncle Josh needs to learn more about the bees.

Therefore, I shall take blood from your left arm and inject it into your right arm. Os course I shall spiH a little in the operation, but all the same you need a transfusion,, and I’m going to give it to you with your own blood. Certainly we would consider such a doctor insane, and the man who would submit to his treatment even more insane. But is it not true that our Federal Aid system boils down to pretty much the same procedure? Our govern ment says in effect to the sev eral states: “Your people need aid. Therefore, we’re going to increase their taxes, bring the money to Washington, spill a portion of it around in differ ent administrative departments, and then pay the balance back in Federal Aid with their own money.” *• • * a What our American people need is less Federal Aid, and more economy in operational costs of the government. Fewer Federal employees and clerical help (?) in government offices.
