Just who* is INFLATION? Il% money that Bering more valuable lliaii
it really is. \X hen there's a greater ? ii| | 1 \ of money than of goods . . .
when it takes more and morr money to bu\ fewer and f- wer tilings —
that's inflation, fl happens when |tnod> gel >ear« \ ami >ou and jour
neighbor* compete unfairl> for lhe*e few good-. I lial hoosl- pri« -
— up and up, until the prires of more and more tiling* are higher
than you and your neighbors ran afford to pa> for them.
Thj DANGER of INFLATION is already here. \\ ill il get worse — as
more peaeetime goods get >earee in the months ahead.' That depends
upon you and every oilier American. We ran halt inflation if all of
ut, 1~>0 million Americans strong, \oluntarily will follow the rules
li-ted Ix low. Let\ all pull together to liek inllation. Keinemher, it's
up to you a- well a> your neighbor. It will take all 1" 0 million of us
to liek inflation. 4
HERE'S WHAT ALL CF US MUST DO TO HALT INFLATION *
Business, Government and Everybody must:
1. Strive for still more efficient production.
2. Halt the upward spirai of prices and wages.
3. Buy only for current needs. Hold business inventories
down.
4. Curtail all non-essential government spending and
support moves toward this end.
5. Save in every way! Buy U. S. Defense Bonds.
6. Support credit restrictions.
7. Support higher taxes to help balance the budget.
IT Will TAKE ALL ISO MllllON OF US TO LICK INFLATION

I think most everyone must have
been in Clarendon lor the 4th. of
July celebration. I heard lots of
compliments on it all, especially the
Rodeo. One thing that I enjoyed
was the Old Fiddlers contest, and
1 was too young to enter that. One
performer that just sorta stayed
in my mind was a young boy; f
never did find out his name, but
he played "Mockingbird Hill." Act-
ually you could hear the flutter of
the bird's wings. It was good . . .

Thanks to ihe ones who res-
ponded to the Irishman's plea for
oma magazines to read. Anions
hose sending him some reading
matter was Mrs. Henry Kinley who
cut 72 issues of The Headers l)i-
cst. all arranged with no months
nisslns. What U that saying of
aura V. H.miner'.' Is it, 'The Pan-
iiaiulle is the grandest place in the
vorld,' I forget ....
Speaking of doing little things
.!)•■ othern put me to thinking along
Jiat line. If we are blue and feel
under par and someone does us a
■ little favor: comes to see us oi
'omeihin:. it always makes us feel
j Letter. Hut the real pay-off comes
! when we do scinethms for others.
There is just no comparison in the
juy of being on the yiving end and
i that of being on the receiving side.
One -lay I was so blue and sorry
for myself and no one had been
■o see nie o>- had sympathized with
me in days and I was just about
to cave in with self pity. Finally,
! in desperation I took a little pie-
sent and went over to see a sick
friend. Suddenly almost I felt bet-
ter: all cheerful and warm on the
inside. For days I was a different
person. My goodness, I thought, I've
had a new experience; I've dis-
covered ft new truth. Then I hap-
pened to think; "It :s more blessed
to give than to receive," then 1
knew that it was not a new truth.
It was just that it was new to me

I am sure most of us thrilled to j
the pictures and story a year oi
c0 ago in Life magazine about our |
own C H. Long of 'he JA Ranch.
C H. was picked as more or less
a typical cowboy by this maga-
zine and by the time their five and
one half million copies liad worn
out every boy and girl in the Unit-
i ed States could recognize C. H. a
inilu away. Anyway, his bachelor
days are over and we had the plea-
sure ot meeting C. H. and Ellen ihe
other day and of sending in a lit-
tle article about the wedding to
, the Panhandle papers. Even though
Life completely, as they say in the
papers, ".'Stooped'' om story we en-
joyed meeting this line couple ami
all the experiences that went along
with it. Ellen has been a nurse for
the Ritchie's little girl, and being
a nurse, if C H. lets old Dobbin
throw him off, she can doctor up
his sore noggin' in no time at all
Any how, it is a pleasure to wel-
! come this Boston gal to our Texas,
and a joy to wish tlu-m lots of
: happiness together as our neigh-
bors. liest Wishes Ellen and C. If
As I write this the talks are go-
I ing on in Korea, and our hopes and
i our prayers should be that it will
i turn out for good. May the peace
| come and may it be the kind that
we can believe in, and that as a
people '.ie can unite upon. If there
• ever was a time in the history of
our country when we needed some
i one thing that we could all believe
in with our whole heart it is now.
It seems so many of our moves
[have been in the realm of uoubt.
I We do a thing, as a nation, and
then we wonder whether we did
the right tiling. We need a foreign
policy that is within the laws ot
1 Goci and right and then we need
to stand on that. If a question is
in the doubtful scope we should
leave it alone. As an individual we
know of a certainty; that if any
i one molests us or our family or
our property we have an absolute
right to protect it, but as to how
lar we can go toward making two
i other fellows leave each other a-
lone is a horse with a different
j color. This is true also, with na-
! tions.
