HAKPEE Ed itoria l a n o p po r t u n it y This Republican newspaper urges every member of the party to vote Nov. 7, for the party's candidates, and invites the mem­ bers of the Democratic party to join ns in the privilege. Not be­ cause Robert A. Taft is a Re­ publican, but because he stands fo r statesmanship a t its wisest and most fearless best, he must be returned to the United States senate. Clarence J , Brown repre­ sents Greene county in Congress, championing American principles zealously and opposing encroach­ ments on our freedoms and lib­ erties. Don Ebright is a high- principaied, govemmentally - trained young man who has earn­ ed the right to become governor of Ohio. Lowell Foss’ very name suggests ability to serve in a leg­ islative body and he has proved i t emphatically. Our neighbor, Myron R. Fudge, will bring to the board of commissioners wis­ dom and experience th a t will be very helpful. To vote for these - men is a privilege, an opportunity and an honor. PRODUCTION Winning battles has become a prescribed and accepted function of America. Not everybody here in Greene county stops to analyze how we do it. The supremacy of the USA lies in its production, is not due greater resources ffl raw materials. Russia has great­ e r raw materials than we have. What makes us superior is our ability to co-operate as free men. Only free people can produce at a maximum. Regimented people can’t do it. Any suppression of personal freedom—like, for in­ stance, outsiders stepping in with millions of dollars to control an Ohio election—every such intru­ sion oh our freedom must be stamped out as the greatest of our enemies. DOLLARS Oar dollars are worth, a t the best estimate, about 48 cents com­ pared to their prewar purchasing power. Up and up and up go prices, and wages are getting four ups almost everywhere. Elec­ tric power; with its constantly widening fields of service, re­ mains one of the few services that cost even less than it used to. The bargain price in patriotic buying of bonds proves not to have a bargain when the bond­ holder is paid off in 48-cent dol­ lars. Winning battles in foreign lands is essential for world sta­ bilization, but winning the bat­ tle of the dollar here a t home is equally important. CONNIE A t 87 baseball’s grand: old; man whose unpronounceable name has been affectionately shortened to “Connie Mack” has stepped down from a position he has held for a half century—a record for the world to shoot at. Another veter­ an athletic figure—Coach Alonzo A. Stagg—dropped by the uni­ versity of Chicago a t 70, went west and grew up with the coun­ try, doing a similar longevity act. Sudh men are a greater inspira­ tion, to youth and a greater ex­ emplification of American oppor­ tunity than military heroes and movie stars. SAUCERS Adi this commotion about flying saucers is not imagination. There are such things—“guided mis­ siles” in military parlance. Ex­ citement has become almost Hy­ steria among people in some sec­ tions of the country. Many have seen these heavenly whizzers; some have taken pictures of them. There is no official denial of their existence. They are experimental. Information about them is quiet­ ing. So, if you see what you think is a flying saucer aflame and terrifying remember it may be only an El Rop cigar some smoker has tossed away! NEW CARS Though priees are higher, and will perhaps go higher yet, the public's interest in new automo­ biles does not lag. Less chrome, fewer biubdubs, better perform­ ance' are among the things prom­ ised. Here and there in the field a manufacturer stresses high gasoline mileage. Some day, the way things look, th a t will be a big selling point. TIP TO, TROOPS The governor of Georgia, Her­ man Talruagff, has a suit on his hands—to permit colored child­ ren to enter white schools. “Hum- men” says; “There’s not enough troops In USA to enforce a court order like that.” Neighboring Highland county churches publish the number a t­ tending Sunday school and the a- mount of collections, and every reader does his own dividing to aee how much the average is. Growing Through Reading and Meditation . Lesson for October 29; Acts 17; 10-12; Pbilippians 4: 8-9, I Tim­ othy 4 t ' 12-1(5; II Timothy 2; 15; 4; 13. Memory Selection; Philippians 4;8. T HE PEOPLE of Beroea, in the synagogue there; heard Paul and Silas: “with all readiness of mind,’* and they examined "the scriptures daily, whether these things were so.” ’“The, scriptures” were those of the Old Testament, And “Greek women of honorable estate and of men, not a few" be­ lieved. The memory selection is a beau­ tiful verse. It shows the power of thought to attain unto Christian graces and virtues. Men tend to be­ come like that on which they con­ stantly look. As Ernest looked through a lifetime upon the Great Stone Face, he bore its image by and by. Christians who meditate upon good things will attain unto them in due time. And they who look ever to Christ will become like him. Paul wrote Timothy to study the scriptures that he might be able to handle “aright the word of truth." And Paul’s own dependence upon the scriptures is indicated in his request that Timothy bring him the books, “especially the parch­ ments." These parchments were doubtless those of the Old Testa­ ment and one or more of the Gos­ pels which, had, been recently writ­ ten. Our lesson is designed to show that spiritual growth comes through reading and meditation upon great books. A magazine heralds the infor­ mation that living to be 120 years old is possibility. Nothing is said about why-—or what on! All the information about de­ posits and savings being protect­ ed up to $10,000 is very interest­ ing, but nothing is said about who has that much money. Definition; Pedestrian—an ex­ ample of what the Bible speaks of as "the quick or the dead.” Governor Warren says that Jimmie Roosevelt assumes for facts what is so fa r from reality that debating him with would be useless. I t seems to run in the family. Nobody can win always, and 10 - body always loses. . .look a t the Notre Dame and the Prillies. I t is only the good in people and in the world that can he de­ pended on, not the evil. Hudson has a new car, the "Hornet,” hut the promise is that nobody will get stung with one.

BROWN Write* With a Buckeye In Gonpress The capture of the Red capital of North Korean 'b y American and South Korean troops last week spelled the virtual end. of the Korean war—although there may be considerable guerilla fighting ahead. In a little over one month’s time the brilliant mili­ tary leadership and strategy of Gen. MacArthur, coupled with the fighting ability of .American troops, has turned apparent trag­ ic defeat into a remarkable vic­ tory. Washington rumor has it that as soon as the situation in Korea becomes stable- most of the combat-hardened American troops there will be transferred to Europe. With complete victory in Ko­ rea a t band, the international planners in the Truman adminis­ tration are now readying a pro­ gram for reconstruction and re­ building of all Korea to- be sub- mited to congress soon after it reconvenes. Two hundred and fifty million dollars a year for ten years is said to be the esti­ mated cost to American taxpay­ ers of the KoreVi reconstruction plans now in preparation. The situation in Indo-China is giving high Washington officials considerable concern. In the last three or four weeks 160 thousand or more French troops have been forced to drop back and surrend­ er many strategic positions to YOURMITETO FIGHT 1 REMEMBER* BY THSOL&tlHERS From B.

What Johnny’s father hasn't done Is to size up the build of the two youngsters. His own sou Is heavier, bigger boned, a potential power bouse. The *' other child is light, quick, small-boned—the type that often tabes to its feet at 11 months. As-for Johnny’s walking one day and crawling the next—well, don’t you feel brisker some days than others? It takes some time for this balancing art we call walking to become the natural form of loco­ motion even after a child has learned the trick. So on days when baby isn’t up to par or is concen­ trating on some new skill, such as learning to feed himself, he may regress to easier ways of getting around. Besides, parents are apt to put too much importance on the age a t which a child learns to'walk. Early walking doesn’t mean that a child is smarter than others his age, any more than delayed walk­ ing is necessarily a sign of slow mentality. However, if your child makes no effort to walk after 18 months it is advisable to consult your doctor. Nutritional disturb­ ances and improperly assimilated calcium may be causes for delay in walking which you will want your doctor to check. If these have resulted in faulty bone building it would be harmful to hurry the child into standing or walking. Bow legs and knock knees are a frequent result of the. parents’ im­ patience to have Junior walking as soon as the neighbor’s child. There are ways, however, hi which you cau help a child get ready to walk, Giving bin? plenty of opportunity to kick from the day he is bora Is fit), lowing nature's way of making strong feet and legs. Never let the baby wear tight stackings. . Do not tuck the blankets i s tightly, around the baby’s legs. When the child starts to creep tlon’t try to hurry him through this necessary stage because he gets himself dirty. Creep­ ing is nature’s way of strength­ ening the abdominal muscles. The opposite concern is wise when the child learns to stand —that Is, watch that he dees sot overdo this new perform­ ance for his feet may sot yet he ready to carry the weight of his body. Providing the child with incen­ tive for walking is the parents* responsibility. If he is confined hour after hour in a small space, boredom alone would delay %his getting about by himself. If you come every time he sees some­ thing he wants and, hand it to him with a smile how Is he to know, or care, that there is a way of helping himself? I know one enchanting child of 12 months whose parents are wor­ ried because she doesn’t bestir herself as her more active cousin does. But little Anne is enthralled by people—her friendly response, her charming acceptance of your attention are warm and lovely characteristics. Naturally, people come to her. Now if it were things that attracted Anne more, she'd be crawling or toddling about to get them. So don’t forget that a child's learning of new skills depends as much on his interest as on his native ability originally planned, because of should watch her while she wat- the fear priees were getting out of hand.
