To escape comment or criticism, do nothing, be nothing, say nothing. A ccentuate the Positive Nyssa is sitting in an enviable position during the c u rre n t brief period of ‘‘recession” being so thoroughly publicized throughout the nation. No one can deny th ere is a squeeze on th e n ation’s economy and th at it* is being felt throughout th e country. It can and should be denied th a t th e nation is in the throes of a depression. To adm it a general buyers’ resistance is common sense and for a com m unity like this to accept it as a challenge is good business. For instance, savings accounts at th e Nyssa bank reached m ore than $5,000,000.00 the first of th e y e ar — the highest in the history of Nyssa. This reveals two things: the general public in this com m unity is not “broke” and individuals are being m ore cautious about spending. Here is w here the economy of Nyssa as a w hole can be strengthened. E veryday needs m ust be purchased and it is probable th a t all of them are available in Nyssa at prices as low o r low er th a n they can be obtained elsewhere. One m erchant com m ented on th e economy by citing his contention th at autom obiles are still being purchased and that during a period like the present, buyers are m ore apt to select less expensive cars from th e ir local dealers than they are to tre k to P o rtlan d or San F ra n cisco and buy Cadillacs. He also speculated on the possi bility that there could well be less buying of $1000 fu r coats, not available here, but m ore $50 purchases of lingerie and other item s as gifts for th e hom em aker. Automobile travel during a “slow -up” period is prob ably restricted, but gasoline, oil and repairs are necessary when rural residents and tow nspeople “drive to the store” to buy those everyday needs. Every individual can rem inisce about his successes and set-backs and w ithout doubt recall his most rapid strides w ere made during those tim es w hen he had a challenge to m eet or an obstacle to overcome. America was built on such a prem ise — th a t of a constant chal lenge and new frontiers to conquer. This nation gained more in medical and scientific know ledge during W orld W ar II, w hich was a challenge, than it had in any other like period in history, then suffered a set-back w hen the w ar ended and there was no challenge to meet. A chal lenge has been presented by the Soviet S putnik and it will be met. So it is w ith sm all com m unities like the Nyssa area and the individuals w ho live here. The challenge is an opportunity th at can come about by accentuating the positive! wick and Mr. and Mrs Homer Whitman, Sunday school superin tendent, attended a young peo “Blessed be the name of the ple's meeting at the Butte Baptist Lord from this time forth and church Saurday night. forevermore.”—Psalm 113:2.
