Small business, already struggling, is suddenly faced with unadjustable price conditions so sweeping and unfair, a waive of protest is certain and justified. It is the most drastic, squeeze in financial history. Howard went on to urge our national representatives to take the initiative in rolling back prices on commodities so drastically After a couple more lines about nostalgic battles with his buddy back in the other war, the Jewy questioned his local friend: Say, you know where I got this likker?

KIDDlHi STAMPED In a recent issue of our paper, it was announced that there would be a Court of Honor for all scouts in the North and South Box Elder stakes. This has always been SOP (Standard Operating Procedure). However this year the bishops received word from their commanding officers and I dont mean their wives that they would hold a meeting id their wards and have it just scouting, in memory of the 41st year of scouting. Everyone knows that this is a better plan than for a few enthusiasts to meet in one ward. The Court of Honor will be held on February 11. Watch these pages for more about it Parents get out and support this program, it really has something to offer. Lets surprise these bishops and really fill their ward halls on the evening of Feb. 4. Thanks to the for taking this message to so many people who are interested. It has been proven that people who dont read their home town paper never get out and help the town so we are assured of getting our message to everyone who would be interested. - v . .t Thanks, - NO Fords now Automatic Rida Control!
