For seven weeks Mrs. Bliss and five other finalist contestants have worked long hours and have not spared themselves in gaining subscriptions and credits toward the grand prize. For Mrs. Bliss and her family and friends the contest ended in delight. For the others there was keen disappointment, disap-pointment, for the commission prizes which they received came far from compensating them fully for the time they expended in the contest. To all the contestants ths Orem-Geneva Times extends thanks for a big boost in its efforts to moie completely and effectively serve the people of Orem and vicinity. The campaign was a big success in that it will put the newspaper in almost every home in the area of the two stakes, and will provide an avenue of expression to anyone any-one in the area who wishes to avail himself of it. Members of the Orem-Geneva Times staff recognize the new responsibility which comes with the additional . circulation and host of new subscribers. We solicit your suggeetions and invite you to use te paper to announce programs, promote civic and church projects, present your views, or indulge in poetry and prose. Within the limits of our space and facilities we'll do our best to make the Orem-Geneva Times a useful paper and one of which you subscribers will be proud. We're grateful for the response of the townspeople, to the judges who served and to the officials of Scera who permitted us to hold the award program there. We dare predict that Helen Naylor Larsen, who arranged ar-ranged and managed the campaign, will become a legend in Orem among those who became acquainted with her. Her happy faculty for making friends quickly and her ability to induce the contestants to extend themselves, were as much responsible for the success of the campaign camp-aign as the inducement of the prizes. PEACE IS MORE THAN A WORD The word "peace" has been printed billions of times, uttered in billions of prayers, spoken millions of times over the radio and voiced thousands of times by every member of the human race in all languages of the earth. And still we have wars! It is high' time to consider that peace is more than a word. It is mora than a spot of ink on a piece of paper, or a sound on our lips. Peace is everything that makes life worth living for the other fellow as well as for us. Peace is worldwide neighborliness. Peace is cooperation and teamwork; it is pulling with people instead of pushing them around. Peace is openmindedness. It is a willingness to listen as well as to talk. It is looking at both sides of a situation. situa-tion. Peace is patience. It means taking the I014? look. " Peace is international courtesy. It is good sportsmanship sportsman-ship in world affairs. Peace is vision. It is being big enough to give up small individual advantages for the universal advantages advan-tages of a warless World. Peace is a thing of the heart as well as of the head. It is warmth, a magnetism, that reaches out and draws people together in a common purpose. Peace is top-level thinking, feeling, acting. It is rising above tanks, planes, and atom bombs as a way of settling 'disputes. Peace is God on both sides of the table in confercrje. N. E. Philadelphia B reeze.

Under Un-der the letter "T" they have: Temperance - Truth - Tyranny. Sounds like a funny combination. And to philosophize a little, notice that Truth is in the center 6 tween Tyranny and Temperance. , Now and then you hear folk! criticize temperate people who enjoy en-joy a moderate glass of beer... who talk about "two beers" getting ome one into trouble, and claim: "There ought to be a law!" Three Mighty Important Ideas Then Truth steps in between, and points out that two beers never got anybody into trouble and that somebody's trying to distort the facts. No, there shouldn't be a law there should be Truth. From where I sit, those ideas are arranged just right. Temperance Temper-ance on one side, Tyranny on the other and Truth in the middle- . seeing that Tyranny never e-croaches e-croaches upon Temperance. Simple Rules Listed for Polio Prevention No sure means of preventing infantile paralysis has yet been discovered, but if parents will follow a few simple rules they can reduce the likelihood of their children being infected, says Dr Hart E. Van Riper, medical di rector, National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. Writing in the current issuS of Hygeia magazine lie lists the following safeguards: 1. Practice cleanliness. 2. Have children avoid new contacts. 3. Don't let them get overtired. over-tired. 4. Be sure they avoid chilling. Avoid Polluted Water 5. Keep them out of polluted water. 6. Call the doctor at the first sign of ilness. Dr. Van Riper says that in attacking '.he polio problem u is first necessary to answer the question, "What is " infantile paralysis?" The reason Is, as he puts it, that "we may be fighting not one disease, but a whole family of only slightly related diseases." "We do know already," he continues, "that there are many strains of infantile paralysis virus capable of producing the clinical cystems. Or are they related? "But we don't know how closely related these . virus strains are, or, indeed, if they are biologically related at all; and we do not know whether special measures of prevention or treatment are necesary for each individual type. "Until this problem is settled there can be no certain prevention preven-tion or cure. Through the research re-search studies now going on and through frank and open discussion discus-sion such as will be possible at LETTER RECEIVED FROM GERMAN EX POW WHO WORKED ON OREM FARM DURING WAR II During the recent war when labor was so scarce on the farms, prisoners-of-war were utilized in productive farm work where they were needed. German and Japanese prisoners-of-war were made available to Orem farmers to help plant and harvest the crops. This farm labor proved very effective and as a result many friend.". ;ps started between be-tween farmers' families and the workers. ' After the war the prisoners returned to their homes and many of them corresponded with Orem families. The following letter was received re-ceived recently by a family here from a former German prisoner-of-war who worked for them during the war: "Dear Friends, i Your letter which took just 12 days made me very glad. I read with 'pleasure that everybody every-body of you is healthy and alright. al-right. Glad to hear that your baby is O.K. and that she has non deficiency. The baS situation over here is the reason why we do not have a baby, yet, cause a little child should not pay for a bad thing which the generation before be-fore did. I was a "after-the-war" child, too, and I .always feel bad when I think of it. Also the position for the future is now much more bad than after the last war. - For sure, a child which is( born now never thanks her folks for life. But we hope the next' two years will be better for the first international poliomye- litis conference, this and other: polio problems confronting us may be solved. Germany, too. So you also have to start small, too, like your father? Me too. I find it alright, cause a thing which you make with your own hands gives you more hap piness. x I miss Orem very much and I would like to see you very bad. But I guess from the States to Bavaria it is not so far today as from Munich to Orem. You know how I did get along after I left Orem? Many things I saw in your country yet, until I came home to Germany and I have my father-in-law that I found a home. In the states we were prisoners prison-ers and we did not have any trouble with food and clothing. Now I'm free, but I see the life it's now more difficult. I would like to come to the States forever, but I can't come there anymore cause it is too difficult now, so we possibly think of it in 10 years or more. And I would like it so much to go up to Timpanogos with my wife! But I have to be satisfied with our mountains. They are not so high as yours but they're quite make as pleasures. I just saw Karl Fredrich and some of the others that work on your father's farm. The all like for sure to remember you. I will give you best regards to them. We send you our best regards, My God bless you. Yours, Ernst and Hildegard Sturm P. S. This translation is bad, I know, but better than if I tvrite in Germaan!
