“Just throw away the pillow—it works every time,” says Buzz Ellis. When counting sheep came up, right away was the question: What kind of sheep? From where I sit, you could argue ’til Doomsday and never get complete agreement on a lot of things. Now, take me. I'm all for

The same way you were brought up. You and your ancestors are just about the greatest revolutionists of all time. When most of the world’s people were being pushed around by all-powerful governments, Americans revolted . . . and won freedom from government force and tyranny. Our Bill of Rights declared that men and women are more important than their governments. A revolutionary ‘idea—and Americans have kept it alive for nearly 200 years! Today, that great idea is in danger. The old idea of all-powerful government has made a comeback. And when government gains power, its people lose precious rights and freedoms. Even in America, we’ve been iving more and more power to our federal government.%l‘low you heay, people saying, “Let the government take over certain industries and services—the doctors, the railroads, the electric companies.” S Most of those peo;ille don’t want an all-powerful government any more than you do. But when an ambitious big government gets control of more and more things, 1t %ecomes socialistic almost automatically. In a socialistic U. S. A., the American Revolution would be dead. There would be no freedoms for you—or your children. © o . ® We hope you’ll talk this over with your family and friends and fellow-workers. It’s the greatest danger America is facing today. =
