I 00 bear and read a lot these days about this
troubled world. Some believe that the end is near.
Some labor-management strife continues in the news,
some prices, judged by pre war levels, are high, and
it must be true that we have a fifth column actively at
work to change our form of government. The foreign
situation is exasperating. From one point of view, things
generally are in a state of confusion, and to some, dis-
aster looms ahead.
But here in Texas and Oklahoma, where Lone Star
furnishes gas service to homes and industry, most folks
are living well, having babies, going to church, improv-
ing their homes, educating their children, and turning
in a good day’s work for a good day’s pay. These
people have faith in themselves, in their country, and
in their communities. They are willing to work. They
know that in America o man can still be wtiat he wants
to be.
Self Reliance and Hard Work made our country.
Self Reliance and Hard Work will keep us free!
