Our Pleasures Were Simple -

. . .a Sense Of Humor Can Be A Great Help-particularly A Sense Of Humor About (oneself). William Howard Taft Joked About His Own Corpulence And People Loved It; Took Nothing From His Inherent Dignity. Lincoln Eased Tense Moments With Bawdy Stories, And Often Poked Fun At Himself-and History Honors Him For This Human Quality. A Sense Of Humor Is Part Of The Art Of Leadership, Of Getting Along With People, Of Getting Things Done.

Forces Of Good And Evil Are Massed And Armed And Opposed As Rarely Before In History. Freedom Is Pitted Against Slavery; Lightness Against The Dark... In The Final Choice, A Soldier's Pack Is Not So Heavy A Burden As A Prisoner's Chains.

The Stop-watch Of History Is Running. The Race Is On . . .

We Must Be Strong At Home If We Are Going To Be Strong Abroad. We Understand That. So We Want To Be Strong At Home In Our Morale Or In Our Spirit, We Want To Be Strong Intellectually, In Our Education, In Our Economy And, Where Necessary, Militarily.

War Is A Contest, And You Finally Get To A Point Where You Are Talking Merely About Race Suicide, And Nothing Else.
