Civic-minded,, responsible people have been asked to staff the safety council, the library board, the adjustment board, the planning commission, the zoning commission and the metropolitan water board of Orem. The persons named will serve without pay, and will contribute hours of time and much thought and effort to improving Orem through the avenue of their particular par-ticular committee or board. Their zeal and determination determinat-ion to improve Orem will in a measure determine the progress which the city makes during the next few years. Upon them rests much of the initiative which can stem from public desire and acclamation. We congratulate the new board and committee members mem-bers on their responsibilities, and we earnestly hope that they use their stations w ithsincerity and enthusiasm enthus-iasm to keep Orem moving toward its destiny as a great residential city. ' A EIT OF EACH, PLEASE General Eisenhower has pungently said that the best example of perfect security is a man serving a life term in a federal prison. The penitentiary may, in fact, serve as a useful symbol of a collectivist society where freedom has been sacrificed to ensure uniform "security." "secur-ity." u At the same time, we need another symbol for the opposite l extreme of individualistic freedom unrestrained unrestrain-ed by the demands of society. Perhaps the best example exam-ple is a shipwreck survivor cast on a desert island However insecure his exitence, this happy existentialist u-iee t. whatever he wants with whatever possibilities poss-ibilities his island universe offers. If the two deals, thus envisaged, rival each other in bleakness, we may take comfort from the fact that humanity hum-anity sets its norm in a nice balance between freedom and security, individual rights and collective needs. In fact freedom and security find their true meaning only SenUaH 8PlntUaI ,eVCl n whih they become es- Mr. and Mrs. Marlin Hall and children have moved into the Frank Sorensen apartment.

"I'm one of your fans." he laughed. I was a little taken bock, so I didn't say anything any-thing and we rode on in silence for a while. Then he started talking in the most serious way, "Some time promise with liquor. . . . either you leave it alone entirely or run the terrible risk of slipping back over the precipice of alcoholism alco-holism and falling down to misery mis-ery and hopelessness.

Owens No man has ever been down so far He couldn't come back again To take hia rightful place In the world Along with his fellow men-The men-The road may be long and steep and tough And briars may line the way But if he has the thing that it takes He'll make it some shining day. It takes a deal of starch in the back A feeling of do or die Everlastingly clinging on For the stakes of life are high. His strength has kept him clean, He spurned the things that came his way Things that were low and mean. He kept his eyes glued to the heights Nor looked back once to mourn For what is gone is gone for good When once new hope is born, And none can fail who'll scan the heights And fight with determined will And know that deep wihtin hi soul i He is a God-man still- And when the day seems hard and dark And courage if melting away The sun of hope will send its light To bring him brighter day. No man is ever so down and out To the place he can't come back If he 11 set in on the game of life And demand for himself a stack Of chips to back the hand he - plays: And plays it close to his chest He'll find that he can hold his own And take his place with the best son and Anna Lou Judd sang and testimonies were given- The M Men honored the Gleaners Glean-ers at a fireside chat at the home of Kay Baker; John Alleri was the speaker.
