LIBERTY (By Guitta Cannnn) The world is filled with many things, With poor men. rich men, queens and kings. But in everyone’s heart the jewels are charity; And in every slave’s soul is found Liberty’s guarantee. When settlers came to America, their want wasn't go d. But Lib.rty. which was yearned in years untold. The freedom to write and their faith to earn. These were the things that in men's hearts were yearned. Libertv i« what our fathers have built for us today. Liberty in the future everyone should pray. Love in our hearts should be now sought. ' Love is why m"ny of us for peace have fought. Georve Washington and Abe Lin coin made the foundation o today. But th» building to build in God we hope we may. The great Statue of Liberty, given to ns by France. Shows that in our hearts an ern blent of freedom may prance ’ter glowing torch that burns. Tell’ that Liberty shall not be lost, even when charity with •s adjourns. ♦ Whether the Statue stands or fa’ls. We know that Liberty is the life of us all. The Statue of Liberty gives us a hurl— Because Liberty make’ the people of America, and Liberty makes the humans of the world.

High School Bands Praised By Student “The high school bands were tops,” Glenn Shaffer, of New Castle, Pa., a student at the Reppert auction school, enthusiastically commented Saturday afternoon, following the Santa Claus parade in this city. Mr. Shaffer watched the parade and dropped into this newspaper office, where he paid the compliment to the bands. Referring to the Catholic high school band, he said. “Those green uniforms certainly are nice." The auction school students paraded after Santa Claus arrived. They assisted in launching the opening of the Christmas season. The merry go round did a big business during the afternoon and evening. t UN VOTES TO (Cj ’ Fr<-m Pave One) to delay consideration of Korea and take up instead the question of the former Italian colonies. Britian wishes immediate consideration of the Italian colonies because she is scheduled to obtain a United Nations trusteeship over Cyrenaica in North Africa and fears that it might be endangered by delay. Russia, on the other hand, wishes to delay consideration of the Korean problem and the sharp eastwest controversy being waged there across the 38th parallel. Because of this. Russia’s Jacob Malik, supported by the eastern bloc, jumped to support the British request to consider the Italian clonies ahead of Korea.
