Freedom means the right to wvorship as we please; to 'vo-te as we please, to dis- sent and to dissent againstI the dissenters. It means non-violent freedom aof! as- sembly; freedom to travel at home and abroad; taown,,1 property an4dis.,pose o! it as we choose; to work ta the extent of oaur o)wn ability, desire and capabil- ity for commensurate re- wards; to bargain for goods and sýervices ini a free mar- ket and to "build a better mousetrap" without arbi- tory government interfer- Prnce and limitation of aur resouircefu7lness. Freedomn means the right to handie aur own earnings and tools; ta select aurow friexids, partners and ass-ýc ciates; to direct the educa- tion of' aur own children and 'thé médication of aur own bodies. Freedomn springs from the soil of eternal and unchang- ing truths which' are* not subject ta human pragma- tism. Unfortunately, when man becomes ap.athetic or indifferent to his heritage of freedom, bis enemies Ynove in quickly with the shackles of slavery. Today, we stand' et the crossroads of courage and confidence, cowardice and captivity. One' can only wonder whîch way we will choose. *Yaurs sincerely, Patricia Young.

Wby not rush' on ta breakfast and work? The answer is con- tainied in a saying of aur Lard: "For wbat wîll it profiît a man, if lie gains the wbole w'orld and forfeits bis if e?" You cannot, in ather words, expect ta win life unless y'ou strive for t'he capacity to use it arigbt. o do not, for instance, gain money by making ma)ney, for it may happen that, instead of owning money, mo ney will own yau. "Wealth," John Ruskin stated, "Is the possession of the valuable by the val- iant?" He went on ta tell of a persaon in a wreck wbo tied about bis waist a beit with 2 00 gold pieces in it, with wbicb he was later found at the bottom. 0f such an individlual Ruskin asked: "As he, was sinking, had be the gaid or bad the gold him," 1t is the samne wdth the eprec of ieamning.
