- History's Greatest Date wJCh ristmas how many persons know just what that day earns to American history? It was on Christmas Day in 1776 iStfTJeneral George Washington made his famous crossing

tMhe ice-packed Deieware River and on December 25, 1821,

Iffra" Barton, founder of the Red Cross, was born.

Analyze these two events and vcu come up with a true

ictiire of what has made this country jrreat. Washington's

esHs synonymous with the thought of liberty and freedom

M.thc name of Clara iiarton and the Red Cross brings to

njT genferosity and kindness that has alleviated the su-

ews of untold millions since the organization was founded.

""Blend together the ideals for which Washington stood

nd.for which this country has been through two great wars

o preserve, and the virtues for which the Red Cross stands

and you have the formula of a great people and a great coun

ty.

Today we are entering another season of good cheer and

apniness, always legarded as a time to celebrate the birth-

ay -of the "Prince of Peace" and to await the coming of

anta Claus" for the kiddies. It is America's greatest tradi-

lOll iir. Wplle fm' ntliPV pmin trips !inrl fur enr'li n rliiw tr livintr

tt-mind two great Americans as George Washington and

Cliu Billon ?s a coincidence that makes us feel proud of

urneritage.

EJGHT STATE-OWNED FORESTS PRODUCING MONEY FROM TREES liNLdflNYt-ULuis, Ina., ucc. 19 (Special) Indiana Department of Conservation officials today released figures demonstrating trees are "a money-malc-ing crop" and not merely something to cut down and get out of the way. This year the state will realize between five and six thousand dollars from the sale of Christmas trees alone. More than 6,200 evergreens are being logged out of eight state forests, marked, cut and stacked on roadsides for sale to wholesalers. It was pointed out these operations . constitute only "improvement cuttings" which are beneficial to the woodland generally. State Forester Ralph F. Wilcox said actual Christmas tree

plantations will be established next year if sufficient planting stock remains on hand at thD state nurseries in the spring. The evergreens are being cut at Morgan-Monroe, Harrison, Frances Slocum, Clark, GreeneSullivan, Yellowwood, Pike and Scales Ltike State Forests. ' The Division of Forestry also has sold nearly 900,000 board feet of mature timber from four state forests this year, producing a total revenue of approximately $12,000. This, too, constitutes a timber stand improvement cut and is not an "out-and-out logg- ! ing operation." I .Mature timber is marked by state foresters, sold standing, and ' logged out by the lumber company employees. The timber is being cut in Clark, Morgan-Monroe, Yellowwood and Harrison Stale Forests.

Miss Virginia Oldaker, a waitress at the Curley & Sandwich Shoppe, won the crown five years straight at the annual Masonic picnics. Her record is to eat an eightinch pie in two minutes, 59 and one-tenth seconds. "Pies or no pies, I still weigh the same," she said. "Neither do have to worry about gaining weight while Fm training to remain the champ."
