No one of us will fail to cherish the rich heritage which our founders forefathers prepared for us of this generation. During this week let us make much of the spiritual values of our history and of our traditions. Let us dedicate our lives afresh to ideals of statesmanship, character, leadership, service.

Let us make it possible, as did our forebears, for our own and for future generations to enjoy liberty of cf speech, of the press, of worship, of public assembly, and the other liberties which we cherish. In this critical hour when democracy, even civilization itself, is at stake, it is more than- ever fitting to commemorate the glorious deeds of those who laid the cornerstone the Texan Empire.

All Wardens Of District 4 Called To Meet Tonight (Wide World Features.) Now that the government has requested women to get themselves into good physical condition, I've decided the time has come for me to start dieting. I guess when you get right down to it, the rubber shortage is what really helped me made up my mind something had to be done. I figured that if I could cut down my girdle size an acre or two, It would leave that much more rubber for the Army and Navy and Marines to use in rubbing out the Japs.

When I decided to lose weight, I started off by hanging signs all over the refrigerator reading, Fat on the starches, Its the best way I know of to courage those midnight raids. Of course, had to be more careful about what I eat at those parties I attend, too. You know, what a party is, don't you? a thing at which a woman a few friends and a lot of strangers better food than she gives her husband all week.

An Army ordnance officer thinks that diet or no diet, I still might work out for the tank corps, so that if I told you how much I weigh and how much lost, I might be divulging a military secret. I can tell you this much, though: When I step on a scale now, I get a card telling me my weight; I used to get one reading, at a time, THE WAR TODAY Courthouse News of Texas Hmotorists have read the new booklet 20 Ways to Get Longer Life from Your Car."

Presumably the capital is working on this very problem, and we have a right to expect that guidance will be forthcoming shortly. If it isn't, we should ask for it. To Be Tough Sledding. I have a sneaking suspcion that when our assignments come going to make tough sledding for a lot of folk.

We must recognize for instance, that the whole country is being keyed to war. This means that a minimum of maybe 15,000,000 workers will be needed for defense projects, in adoption to 7,000,000 and likely more who will go Into the fighting servces. Remember what President Roosevelt said In his speech last night: a just and durable peace Is to be attained, or even if all of us are merely to save our own skins, there is one thought for use here at home to keep fulfillment of our special task of It strikes me that it won't be surprising if we reach the point where the government will have to assign each ot us to the job for which we are best suited, irrespective of what we have been doing, or where we have been doing it. That would mean a great change in our lives. In any event, we should got mentally prepared to make such a sacrifice.

People Eager to Serve. This column is convinced that our people as a whole are eager to serve, though some of us may be thoughtless and others undoubtedly are suffering from the lack of guidance which we expect Washington to remedy. It be a pity il either complacence or want of guidance should result in unpreparedness to carry us through the Valley Forge of our greatest trial. Somewhat when I think of complacence there flashes across my mind a picture of the five former leaders of the Third Republic of France as they stand on trial in the supreme court at Riom.

charged with war-guilt in the defeat of their country. It really isn't former Premiers Blum and Daladier and Allied Generalissimo Gamelin and the rest who are standing before the bar, but the whole people of that grand republic which lies crushed be neath the of Hitler's army. From Gamelin, the leading sol dier of his time, to the adoring lad who polished his boots, the people of France in ignorance or complacence laughed at danger in the fancied security of their mighty Maginot line and that army which Mussolini himself is said to have characterized as the most powerful in existence So when Hitler struck, and the fifth columnists joined forces with the invaders, France succumbed.
