■■■■— -I I, ' " — Two Autos Badly Damaged In Wreck Two autos were heavily damaged in an accident near Pleasant Mills! Wednesday afternoon, but no injuries were received by either driver. The crash occurred at 5:55 p. m., 1.3 miles east and a half mile south of Pleasant Mills on the Piqua road extended. Robert Dean Williamson. Jr., 16, of 114 S. 13th street, was backing from a driveway and was struck by an auto opperated by Max Leroy Hart, 19-year-old Monroeville resident. Hart applied the brakes of his vehicle in an attempt to stop, but skidded 120 feet into the right rear of the Williamson vehicle. Damages were estimated at $550 to the 1960 Hart auto and $250 to Williamson’s 1957 model auto. State trooper Gene Rash and deputy sheriff Warren Kneuss investigated.

AS OF October 28, IM2, there •** were 110 nations in the United Nations Organization. (How many can you name?) Nations are there which did not exist when World War II ended. Nations are there whose very terri-

Dr. Foreman

■ tory was marked lon maps UNI KNOWN or UN- ■ EXPLORED just I a few generations ■ ago, when the I writer’s father I was a boy. People I all over the world I who never gave I much thought to i it before, now

want to belong to a nation, able to take its place, perhaps a small place but a real one all the same, among the nations of the world. Great nations that used to take themselves more or less for granted, now are keenly aware of their role in the world of nations. Th* good in nationalism Nationalism is a state of mind. It is no more visible than the “Spirit of Old Siwash” on the college campus; yet as with the college, so with the nation; the kind of spirit it is, the kind of national outlook and inlook that prevails, determines what Siwash College or the nation itself shall be. Like all states of mind, nationalism is not just one thing but a combination of things. At base it is patriotism, the love of one’s own country, a wish to work for its welfare; it is pride in the achievements of the pioneers, a sense of the living reality of the history of the nation; it can be a sense of national ideals, an “image” of what one’s country wants to be; an awareness of her resources, a sympathy with one’s fellow-citizens, a proud and happy sense of belonging. The bad in nationalism I Like all good things, nationalism can be spoiled. It is like FAT OVERWEIGHT Available to you without a doctor’s prescription, the GALAXON plan. You must lose ugly fat or your money back. One of the basic problems of losing weight is 'your inability to stick to a planned diet. The GALAXON plan contains a tablet and is easily swallowed. When you take GALAXON, you simply don't have the urge for extra portions because GALAXON depresses your appetite and decreases your desire for food thus making it easier and more comfortable for you to diet. Your weight must come down because as your own doctor will tell you< when you eat less, you weigh less* Get rid of excess fat and live longer. Os course GALAXON can’t do all the work for you alone. But if you really want to ,cut down on your eating, and lose weight, GALAXON can be a powerful helper. The GALAXON plan costs $3.00 and is sold on this guarantee: if not satisfied for any reason just return the package to your druggist and get your full money back. No questions asked. The GALAXON plan is sold with this guarantee by: Smlt'h Drug Store - Decatur - Mall Orders

some Hoosier points mostly in the southern half of the state. Precipitation totals by 7 a.m. included Evansville .18, Louisville 20 and Cincinnati .02. Rain was falling at 7 and 8 a.m. at Terre Haute, Evansville, Louisville and Cincinnati, and it was cloudy over the remainder of the state. However, the scattered light showers were expected to be confined to. the central third, with rain more general in the south. The north was expected to miss the showers. Temperatures reached points no higher than 67 at Lafayette, 70 at South Bend and Fort Wayne, 73 at Indianapolis, and 82 at Evansville Wednesday. Overnight lows included 46 at South Bend, 49 at Fort Wayne, 51 at Cincinnati, 52 at Louisville and Lafayette, 55 at Indianapolis and 56 at Evansville. Highs today will range from the upper 60s north to the low 70s south, lows tonight from the mid 40s north to' near 50 south, and highs Friday in the low 70s all around the state. Miss Susan Parrish To Graduate Sunday At Marian College commencement exercises Sunday, the Most Rev. Paul C. Schulte, D. D., archbishop of Indianapolis and college chancellor, will confer a bachelor of arts degree on a graduating senior from Decatur. During four years at the Indianapolis coeducational liberal arts college, Miss Susan Parrish, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Ronald Parrish, 503 W. Monroe stieet, has majored in Spanish, with elementary education as het* minor field of study. A graduate of Decatur Catholic high school, Susan's campus activities have included particijJation in the college choral groups and representation in student association projects. In September, Miss Parrish plans to enter the teaching profession. -3 —; ■ — —— — : —— family feeling in some respects. It is good to be pleased with one's family, even to be proud of it and to uphold its standards; but the very words “family pride” have a bad sound, because in practice it means, too often, nothing but snobbishness, family conceit. So nationalism can degenerate. It can take the form of bragging. American tourists are in many places unpopular. They go to poorer countries and keep Complaining all the time about the food and the language and the people; they never see anything abroad without telling you how much better they do or make things back in good old Siwash, U.S.A. They are like rich people going on a trip through the slums and making loud unfunny remarks about the way the people in the slums live. But when a slum clearance program comes up, these same people don’t want any part of it. They are willing to tour around and make fun of the way those who are miserable have to live; but they aren’t on hand to help when something is being done to make the slum more livable. Likewise nationalism can easily become simple conceit, unwillingness to co-operate in progress. "Man’s other religion'* Nationalism has been called “man’s other religion.” This is the greatest danger in it; no imaginary danger; as history plainly shows. Nationalism becomes a religion when the citizens think of their nation as beyond criticism; when devotion to it becomes fanaticism; when many forms of anti-social behavior are tolerated in society sooner than brave and intelligent criticism of elements in national life that call for criticism, It becomes a religion when its commands are taken to be the highest authority on earth. The prophets of the Old Testament had a good deal to say about nationalism. They were not heeded. It might be truly said that the Hebrew nation perished of repeated attacks of nationalism. One thing, however, the prophets made perfectly clear: God has no Et nations. Some nations acowledge him, some pretend to honor him, some perhaps really do. But every nation is “under God.” What will be hia verdict
