Vour reporter was intrigued
with the Idea of just why these
people were so stirred up about
their flag not being displayed
with that of their neighbor

a piece of cloth with colors

really look "tough" after the
Intense, dry cold of almost two
months now (It seems). The
stock, where it has been fed
and cared for, looks unusually
well for this time of year. It

Nature ts really a wonderful
thing. But it can be cruel, u*
most of us "old-timers” have
discovered And yet our section
of Texas is wonderfully blessed
in the way It can recover front

We need moisture—we have
heard that most of the grain
has been frozen out—which we
hope is not a fact. But even
then, there was some good
grazing upon It which probably
paid fur the seeding We doubt
that a hard rain now could
help as much &* it would harm
what little eras* in left Bo
perhaps the best thing we cam
do Is to do the best we cun
with our stock, and pray for
the good spring rains which
may again make our land

in the world
Keeping the Free World free is a mighty
expensive proposition.
And our enemies are doing everything they
can to make it bo. They’ve Mid they expect to
“bury us” economically.
They see us as soft, self-satisfied, lazy. They
don’t think we’re prepared to make any Mcri-
fices for freedom.
But there’s a “special book* In the TJ.S.
Treasury Department that says they're as
wrong about that ae they are about a lot of
Other things.
It’s a symbolic “freedom book* which shows
that tens of millions of American families have
iuvested 46 billions of dollars in their country ia
the form of U.S. Savings Bonds. Dollar* the
government uses to keen our economy strong.
To help keep the Free World D ec.
This Is one wav you can Tficet the challenge to
Americans. Ana there's no need to feel funny
about collecting good interest on Savings Bonds.
The financial strength of your family Is part of
the strength of the nation.
So help yourself as you help your country, by
regular purchase of U.8. Savings Bonds . . .
through the Payroll Savings Plan where you
work, or from any hank.
