Show YOUNG REPUBLICAN n S. J. uJ Friday, October 10, 1958 roUIDCM TIE C. Mann By Stanley We have talked about leadership, being a events that YRs have pargood follower ticipated in the Whys, Hows and Wherefores. We have gotten to the grass roots level and we have seen political action on high levels. We can see how each individual integrates his ideas with others, to form the party platform and opinion. AH of this is known as party support. We see and hear many people who have per-con- al gripes, yet we see them out to mass meetings, canvassing their neighborhoods for First Voters, we see them at the polls on election day. We shake our 'heads and say He must be crazy, I thought he was angry and dissatified and here he is doing the same old thing. These people you heard griping and the next day were on the job are party people. Loyal and sure of their convictions. They are ready to contribute to their country through the party of their choice. They know and understand people. They know and understand a cause. They know and understand the meaning of unity and one voice made of millions. They know the meaning of standing up and being counted and heard from good or bad. They inte AM Fare S hr. masin grate themselves and their ideas and opinions and form the Republican Party. A party of individual contribution and a party of sharing with one another. Party people respect one another they but when theres may argue and debate work to be done when the partys candidates are runhing for election, they forget about themselves and put forth their very best for the benefit of the whole party not individual ambition and self. The same is true of a public servant. He forgets himself and thinks of his community and staite in relation to the whole nation. He thinks of his nation in relation to the whole world. The elected official dedcates himself to the goodness in all men in all time. He sincerely tries to make his community his state, and his nation a better place to live in. Party people follow this type of leadership and perform their duties with the same thought in mind. We are a team' true, a political team but that does not make us any different from any other team. If we 'want to accomplish, achieve, we must pull together and forget the harness in chafing a bit. YRs SALUTE Mm V. Watitins By Madge H. Fairbanks What makes a statesman? A talent? An ambition? True, these, one has to have, but it takes more. It takes an indivi-dua- l, to sacrifice willing to climb, - and willing to work in the willing to work, with no words of praise face of derision and criticsm. It takes many years of tempering, molding, maturing, developing and patience. A man must first be a politician before he can be a statesman. What is a politician? A politician is a man who is learning the art of government. A man who apprentices to learn their wants and their needs. himself to his people When he has mastered his trade he becomes a statesman. In this state of high mountains and high plateaus we have men of high ideals and courage. For it took men of that calibre to conquer the high mountains. The highest of our mountain peaks is capped with white snow. The statesman of these mountains bears silver hair. That man is Arthur V. Watkins. Inre- By Messrs.
