citizens" Miss Nash predicted here

The story which came to my
desk in a somewhat round-about
fashion from its author, the poet.
Don - Blanding, you have read
elsewhere. Suice 4t first appeared
in the Reader's Digest, it has
been reprinted often, Each - time
I re-read it I find a new note. ;
And I question whether its ti
tle refers to that Effie May. reared'
to the memory of .her son or to
that which she raised to the un
derstanding hearts of mothers.
Its, author calls it: c- .s
MONUMENT ..
A Florida back-country woman
was hoeing out in , front, of her
weather-beaten house, A neighbor
stopped and leaned on the fence.
"Effie May" she said, "it ain't
Ctten for you to be hoein out
here today when the whole town
knows that you just had a letter
from the government sayin that
your son, Jim, is layin out in
one of them furrin heathen lands
dead. It Just aint fltten." - '
Effie May rested her hoe and
looked at her : neighbor with
bleak level eyes. "Friend, she
said, "I know you mean welL but
you Just don't understand. This
is Jim's land,! and it rejoiced his
heart to see green things growin
because it meant that his maw
and the young "una would be
eatinV This is hi hoe, and when
rm hoin' X can almost feel his
big strong hands under mine and
hear his voice sayin That's
good. Maw. That's good. I can't
afford a stone monu-ment . for
Jim. Workin',1 not weepin', is the
only headstone I can give him. So,
if you don't mind, Neighbor, 111
do my grievin in my own way."

DAN HARMON FOR CONGRESS
The Republican party expects
to get our country out of this
mess, but it can't do so by re
electing the same old crowd of
lawyer-politicians who got us in
to : the alphabetical soup. To be
progressive,' the Republican Party
must get the "old timers" out and -put
some 1 progressive men in
Congress. DAN HARMON is such
a man. He is successful.
DAN I HARMON i believes in
thrift, hard work and honesty,. as
a foundation of progressive ac
tion. In Congress do we want suc
cess or seniority?
'; Congress has been full of sen
iority (men too old to put up a
good fight) for years let us try
success instead of seniority for a
change. .
