By RAYMOND FJTCAIRN
National Chairman '
i Sentinels of the Republic . I
Countless Americans, as this is written,
are- either planning or embarked
upon their annual program of nationwide
summer travel.
This is an excellent thing. It has
particular value at a time when discouragement
and pessimism flood so
much of the world. For America, seen
and understood as a whole, has an
inspiring message to Impart.
To ad who view it with open eyes and
open Alnd, America offers not only
grandeur of scenery, bat a record of
grandeur of character on the part of
its builders as well.
In the fertile farms of the Mississippi
Valley, in the productive Industries of
the East, in the spreading ranches of
the great West, it dramatizes the story
of the men who, by their own strength,
their own energy, their own spontaneous
ar.d creative courage, harnessed
the power of a continent to build a
free and mighty nation.
Everywhere the tourists Will see the
America which was made by the labor

energy of our pioneers and those who
followed them.
Everywhere they win see what can and
has been achieved by the unshackled
spirit of a people who demanded only
opportunity and Independence.
What a pity the oppressed peoples of
Europe?who are taught that In order
to advance, men must be the Instruments
and the dependents oX the State
?cannot see these things!
What a pity the theorists who urge
on our people,a policy of leaning upon
government and looking to the politicians
rather than to their own abilities
stand America's message!
To a!l who really see America It tells
the Inspiring story of what can be
achieved by the free spirit of a great
people unshackled by dictatorial repression.

preach that program depends en the

The coroner took the witness
stand, testified death was caused
by a knife In the heart. A storekeeper
told of selling the knife to
Muff previously.
Injun Joe testified he saw Muff
stab the doctor that night in the
cemetery.
Counsel for the prosecution now
said: "By the oath of citizens
whose simple word is above suspicion,
we have fastened this awful
crlmo upon the unhappy prisoner
at tho bar. Wo rest our case here."
A groan escaped poor Potter.
Counsel for' the defonao rose and
laid:
"Your honor, our remarks at the
opening of this trial foreshadowed
our purpose to prove our client did
this fearful deed under the influence
of drunken delirium. We have
changed our mind. We shall withdraw
that plea and enter a plea
of 'not guilty.'" Then to tho clerk:
"Call Thomas Sawyer."
Puzzled amazement stared from
every face, Including Potter's,
livery eye was on Tom as he took
the stand.
"Thomau Sawyer, where were you
