what he was trying to say. It
just depends on where you are in
the U. S., which way sounds right.
From where I sit, whenever we
criticize someone for sounding fun
ny to us, we ought to think how we
sound to them. It’s the same as
choosing your liquid refreshment.
I’m accustomed to a moderate glass
of beer—you may like ginger ale—
but who's to say the other's wrong?
I’d say we're both right!

Following are quotes from the
address of Benson Ford, before
the Los Angeles Junior Chamber
,if C om m ence W e r e p r in t esp ee- |
ially for our Jaycees:
‘•We all talk so much about the
material benefits which we have
achieved in this country that I
think we may sometimes forget
that our accomplishments stand on
a religious foundation. Any future
accomplishments must stand on
the same ground. We can't hope to
do anything significantly new un
less we work toward high purposes
— unless we keep a sound balance
between the material and the
moral.
“ At a time when the whole idea
at a free society is being attacked
by selfish interests in many parts
of the world, it is especially im- |
portant that we are ourselves ■
clearly so that we can pass judge- j
ment on the plans of those ama- j
teur mechanics who want to take
our social and economic machine
apart— and who might leave us by
the side of the road with some im
portant gears missing.
"O ur responsibilities as citizens
do not end when we have gone to i
the polls and voted. The rights
which we have to day as American
citizens are a trust we must guard
and pass along to our successors-
enriched, if possible.
“ If I had to select the one char-
aacteristic which distinguishes a
free country, 1 think I would say
that it is a faith in the individual
and a conviction that each of us
has not only rights, but responsi
bilities.”
BORN— To Mr. and Mrs. F. H.
Jordan, O’Brien, Wednesday,
May 4th, at 2 p. m., a baby girl,
weighing 7 pounds, 9 ounces.

How Would You Say It?
Curley Lawson's cousin from back
last and a few of us got talking
,hen he was here visiting, and I
ouldn’t help noticing how different
e said things.
For instance, he said, “ Lifting
hat 200-pound bag of cement al-
nost killed me.” “ You mean sack
f cement?” asks Curley. (That’s
he way we’d say it.) “ No,” inter-
upts young Elliott who'd spent a
ot of time down South, “He means
i ‘poke ot see-ment.’ ”
It was good for a chuckle, any-
vay. Bag, sack or poke—we knew
