OUR GREAT AMERICAN HERITAGE LIBERTY By Connie Pritchett It was D-Day The forces were poised, ready for landing, wait ing only for the signal. Through the dense grayness of the dawn, the men could see the outline of one great object an object that was always with them, either in mind or reality, to remind them of the one great objective for which they were fighting. It was The "stars and stripes," the banner which to them meant liberty. They would fight as their forefathers had fought, sacrifice as they had sacrificed for Lib erty. Among them, as there had been among their forefathers were all races, colors, and creeds, But they were all Americans, fighting for the cause Americans have always fought for the same cause that brought the Pilgrims Pil-grims to the New World; that caused the Boston tea party; the American Revolution, Paul Re-vere's Re-vere's ride; the cause that Lin coln, Custer, Washington, Jackson, Jack-son, Nathan Hale and others had fought and died for; the thing that everyone has had a hand in developing Liberty and Amer ica. Although they all had a dif ferent conception of liberty; all had an inward feeling and thrill when the word was mentioned. It all added up to much the same principle. To Emil Wagner, a German by decent; to Red Cawechi, an Indian; to John Jones, just cosmopoliton; and George Barber, English; Ching Tetsume, Chinese; Tony Barnar-do, Barnar-do, Italian; and the many others, who were now Americans; it meant freedom. They couldn't explain it. They knew Webster defined it as: "Freedom; special priveleges or exemption;, permission; permis-sion; freedom from bondage." Yes, this was liberty. But it was more than that! It was the everyday simple things like see ing any movie reading any book or paper holding parties anywhere any-where worshiping or not well-just well-just everything. It is not the formal stiff description by Webster, Web-ster, but the things we all do and feel, the things that are so dear to our hearts. They all knew what Lincoln meant wheni he said, "Four scores and seven years ago our forefathers brought forth up on this continent a new nation." Yes, they knew, it was their forefathers, and when the preamble said, "We the People of the United States" Yes, these were they They were the people of the United States, a few of the many people who were fight ing for liberty. But their minds kept wander ing back to the United States, to their parents, wives, and sweethearts. They were not worried, for they knew their loved ones were safe in America, where they would not be in the danger of gestapo and firing squads, starvation and malnutri tion. bombs and bullets. This is what they meant by American liberty. It is not only freedom! but security and safety! They coma see now, more than ever why it was such a great cause, why so many people had given their lives to defend it. They could see now more than ever that American liberty was for tnem and their loved ones. Then as the signal sounded, every man went forth with a de termination in his heart that he had something that no one was going to take from him. He was willing to give his life, if neces sary, for the "Great American Heritage Liberty". Missionaries Urged To Study Genealogy By W. M.

Fork Phone 649-J The LDS church is stressing missions and missionary work now that the boys are released from the fighting forces. No doubt there will be a large number num-ber of missionaries go into the field in the not far distant future. fu-ture. Here is a message for the man and women who contemplate going into the mission field. It should be given very serious consideration con-sideration also by the presiding officers and the parents. Everv missionary should know something about genealogy. The very least he should know would be, how to make pedigree charts properly, how to fill out a one family group sheet so it will be acceptable to those in charge of records in the Index Bureau. He should be able to advise the Saints regarding the various de tails of performing ordinances for their dead. And this above all, he should be able to talk intelligently in-telligently to the non-member about salvation for the dead. To do this he must understand the underlvine doctrines of our belief. We have been in the mission field with young missionaries, some of whom could help in talking talk-ing salvation for the dead to non-members and could assist the saints in the problems of temple work, others couldn't. We know the difference in their work. The missionary must learn about the first principles of the gospel because they are always answering questions about these principles. Many of them get by without a knowledge of the most fundamental things in genealogy and temple work. We believe every missionary should attend a genealogical training class for a number of months, a year if possible, before he goes into the mission field. It will help him to make more converts. Many there are who can be led to investigate Mor- monism if they are first told of salvation for the dead. And you need have little fear that a newly baptized member will leave the church if you can get him interested in genealogy and temple work. The easiest way to get him interested is to show him how to do it and to do that you rleed some training in the fundamentals of genealogy and record keeping. Early Plans Being Made To Save Forests County Coordinators to carry on the 1948 Utah Cooperative Fire Fighters program for $he coming summer were made last week by J. Whitney Floyd of Logan, State Coordinator. Sheriff Theron S. Hall was made Utah county coordinator, and A. L. Taylor, assistant forest supervisor super-visor was appointed as his assistant. assist-ant. The annual area of grazing, watershed, and timber lands burned in Utah has been greatly reduced each year since 1942, according to Mr. Floyd. However How-ever the number of fires has remained re-mained approximately the same each year. Much credit for the fact that our fires burn less area goes to an awakened public interest in-terest in the prevention and quick suppression of fires. The people of Utah have shown their appreciation of cooperative fire prevention and control by going out wholeheartedly to reduce the damage by fire to our national resources. Private companies and county and state departments depart-ments who can help the program pro-gram as they fulfill their regular duties have given and are giving great assistance to fire prevention preven-tion and control work. A continued successful fire prevention and control program can only be carried on through the excellent cooperation of our citizens and public departments. WASTE PAPER COLLECTION Mayor David L. Greenwood has given his consent and Julius Christensen has agreed that all waste paper for the Daughters of Utah Pioneer Drive will be picked up from curbs where Mr. Christensen Chris-tensen calls for regular garbage pick-up. The paper will then be taken to the east school until the close of the drive. Everyone not having hav-ing city garbage collection may take paper to the school house. Tie newspapers and magazines separately and with strong twine. Do not use wire as it damages the paper cutting machines.
