Proverbs 11:24. imagine; hitler rule in u. s. i To get a real idea of what life under German Fascism is like, use your imagination and transplant the whole business to American soil. Pretend, that is, that we are laboring uir del' Nazism and that the things that have happened in Ger many of late have really happened over here. It may put a strain on your imagination, of course but try it, and see what you get. You start by imagining that all political parties but the Democratic party have been forcibly suppressed. Herbert Hoover has been driven into exile; Henry Fletcher runs what is leit of the Republican party Iroin a safe haven in Mexico City. Ogden Mills is languishing in Leavenworth; many other well known personages and leaders have been shot. Congress is composed solely of party henchmen picked by Jim Farley; but that makes little difference, for it meets only when Mr. Roosevelt says it may, and it does exactly what he tells it to do. There won't bo any fall elections ; if there were, all the voter could do would be to make a blanket endorse ment of all Demacratic candidates, with a flock of Tammany thugs around to beat him up if he refused. The editor of your favorite newspaper prints an editorial suggesting that the NRA is somewhat less than perfect, and is immediately thrown in jail. You yourself happen to re mark that you think General Johnson is a flat tire, and the Department of Justice lugs you off to a concentration camp in Georgia. . No public speaker, no editor, no magazine writer dares to suggest that Mr. Roosevelt is anything but the wisest president we have ever had. Then, to cap things properly, imagine that the Democrats have had an internal row, and that the president settles it by having Carter Glass, Huey Long, lici-nard M. Baruch, and Al Smith executed with only a semblance of a trial. All this makes a dizzy, nightmarish picture. Yet it is only a pale approximation of the reality in Germany todav and looking at it like that is a good mental exercise It should impress upon your mind how unutterably precious the liberties of a democracy really are. Without thenv life oecomes grotesque ana Horrible. Their preservation is the greatest responsibility we can possibly have.

Band music was furnished by the La Orando band and the Ogden band, two of the best known musical or ganizations fn the west. The buglers were Clifford Crowley and Stewart Wylde, nlxth and seventh grndera, re spectively, spectlvely. Phyllis McLaughlin was the crown r rcr.
