Hudnall Business Staff Educated IHen-DeMoclacts Lifeblood In a r. public, the majority centres the action and constantly changes the public opinion. It is considered radical to differ, but hero is where our oducated intolligcnc comes in. Haybo ro arc in the minority, but if we know vo arc right, lot us have the courage, and energy to stick to our principles whether tko mob srys yea or nay . History has shovm that progress springs from the minority, end if we hold fast, some day we •.ill have a victory. Our education end intelligence have proved to us that serving a mob can be as degrading as serving a director. It is the o’.ucatcd voice which exposes the men who nisi C.d the mob. They say, all men leicw v.or. than : ny one mar. —but this is not so. A crowd is no wiser than the wise st unn in it. Today the educated class are said to be impracticable nd visionary, because they he Id that -.ornUty is strong r than the ’majority.

Page lb T'r .Z BLUZ Nineteen-Forty Sunny New veur, the youngest son of Futher Tine, has ‘bid the world hello and he is now starting his twelve month life. Great things are expected of this youngster, end until he becomes un old nan, we hope that he will have put the world back on its feet again. The girls especially like this young lad for, just because he has an extra j-;y in his life, girls are allowed to turn custom around and seek their heart’d desire, already the oarers show that there are going to be Leap ‘•’’ear Marriages, so it's no vender tho women folks like Su.my New veur. Prophecies show that Sunny is greatly interested in aeronautics so I guess that accounts for the boys liking him. But we must remember- that the lad will grow up and that while he is growing older, we are too . V e realize that years come and go but we never think that euch one marks a milestone in our lives. In looking back we can easily see time that was wasted -nd' sonetimes it seems as if a whole-year has brought us no avail, but if each person would just think that u year cuts off another piece of our short lives, we would take these sons of Father Tine much more seriously than we do.
