Just 50 years the Bohemian, Dvorak, wrote his famous "Humoresque" music on the banks of our little Turkey River in northeast Iowa. But, let's remember, if Dvorak and similar settlers from other lands gained something from us we gained much from them, too. Think of the Germans, English.

Italians, Scandinavians and scores of other nationalities who settled our state. And think of the rich cultures of the old world they brought here with them. Each, of course, had its own tastes and ways of life. One liked sauerkraut and beer. Odm brought us the polka, another the wanz.

But each recognized the other's right to freedom of choice. So they mingled all these cultures, tastes, and ways of life into one. and helped make Iowa tha great state it is today. In celebrating Dvorak's anniversary, let's also salute these many other nationalities who have helped make democracy racfl a living force here in lows, The lid is off on the 1953 football season and another season opens in the feedlot Fall pigs are arriving and its essential they get the best in feed.
