Who could have more bravely born their own cold if there had been Red Cross shoes enough for their own boys and girls. Charity should begin at home so theGood Book tells us but it seems that like many other homely chore, distance lends enchantment. Families there are in this land where children seven and eight years old have never known any home except a make shift trailer affair or tent at some F. 8. A. labor camp Also in these foreign lands the rich still live as they always have, with all and more than they need. It is but a lack of money so it seems that keeps the poor from enjoying even the small necessities of life. There are still well filled Ritz hotels, still smart watering places where society gathers, still many, too many, foreign born of the so called nobility and liesure class enjoying the safety and indulgences that this country affords. Why not send them back to do their duty to their own country men? have they not heard of the dire plight and the utter gastliness •of their lives? Is not the country of the peasant and the small shopkeep er the country of the nobleboin as -well? Or is there an international group made up of theimroensely wealthy and high born who owe no allegiance to any soverign or gov ernment. Whose sole duty in life to protect their own skins and save their own fortunes and to enjoy the good things of life. It matters not in what land they be? Why not let or make them spend their riches on the suffering masses of their own people. Make them share in their deprivation and anguish, make them make the world safe for the democracies. It is such as they that destroy them. Make them put their wealth back in the land from where it came before we over here start sending our stores on the uncertain journey accross war infested seas while thousands upon thoasands over here are scarce better off than the thousands over there made desti tute by Europe's wars. And if there is a doubt in your mind that such conditions do exist here. Just get a Job in any big pub lic hospital or community center, or hop in the Jalopte and Juant through the H in ter lands of the south or even in this our own Oregon. On your return the security, peace and abundance at your own fireside will seem great beyond measure And perhaps no place in Nyssa is the abundance of thla country side more in evidence than at the Wilson I m M u r _*a ye _a slave over the baking and the mak ing of the lunch the whole day long For at the Swan Bakery they have all manner of cakes, and rolls and buns, and breads and cookies. Tasty and full flavored and fine texture as any baked at the old homestead. But if it is company that is coming and chairs that hold together are as scarce at the manse as a shower was last year then do a hop skip to Tom Nordales furniture store on Main near Second and cast the family peepers over the fine lot he ^ L^Ü Ü folding camp stools he has there too will fill many a sitting down need ere summer is ended. But whether the meal is to be spread on the lawn in the shade of the trees or by a gurgling mountain stream, Butch at the Nyssa Packing has what it takes to make a first class lunch or dinner in the meat line. Long strings of weiners for hot dogs, stacks of fresh ground hamburger for sandwiches, steaks and roasts and cold cuts. Shop in Nyssa and you wilt not waste thy time and thy gas going farther.
