Free Enterprise Day
Just about every day of the year has been set aside for observance of an event, an institution or a notable figure in the nation’s history. A day of this kind is scheduled on the calendar for October 2—an occasion that not one person in a thousand will note or will be aware of. In the catalog of “days,** October 2 is identified simply as Free Enterprise Day, whose purpose is: “To show appreciation of America’s Free Enterprise System, by reminding ourselves of its beneftis and pledging its continued support.” ' We have all heard the term free enterprise, but in this day of supergovernment, high taxes, crushing public debt and detailed regulation of nearly every human activity, free enterprise has lost much of its meaning. It has ceased to exist in the pure traditional sense and sadly enough because of that,
We're Behind Governor Maddox
Yes, we’re four-square behind Georgia Governor Lester Maddox’s proposal that “prayer rooms” be established in Georgia public schools. We would like to see it done in Indaina.

basic liberties have been circumscribed to a far greater extent than most of us realize. In fact, many writers and commentators shv away from the expression “free enterprise,” because they feel it has become meaningless. Free enterprise is far from meaningless. It is inseparable from representative government. Officially, it is defined by Webster as “an economic system in which primary reliance is placed upon private business operating in competitive markets to satisfy consumer demands and to maintain equilibrium in the national economy and in which government action in this respect is restricted to protecting the rights of individuals rather than acting as a directing economic force.” Thus, Free Enterprise Day holds genuine meaning for all of us.
not force anyone to do anything against his beliefs. The “prayer rooms” could be used until an amendment could be acted upon and passed bv congress and ratified by the states. “God isn’t dead. He isn’t even sick.” the Governor has been quoted as saying. “God does exist. He always has. he always will and he isn’t playing any game of hide and seek either.” We say Amen.

Seems John Rinker took his boat “Mr. Rinker” to Portsmouth. Ohio, for the NOA national boat races. The strong undercurrent demolished his boat and while John was in the water the current was so strong it pulled his trousers down to his ankles. So John not only lost his boat, bat almost lost his “pants". The Jan Rinkers and Paul Beezley were also at Portsmouth. • * • Recently on an overnight camping trip one of the Camp Fire Girls groups had a cook-out. There were 10 girls and two adults and the following foods were consumed: Ten pounds potatoes, five pounds onions. three pounds hamburger, two pounds carrots, one and one-half boxes graham crackers, one large box marshmallows, one and onehalf boxes candy bars, one and one-half loaves bread, one large jar apple jelly, two pounds sliced cheese, two cartons large Cokes, two large boxes doughnuts, one gallon chocolate milk.
