he hurriedly pulled on his trousers and

prayer to St. Patrick and all the other

OUR COVER THIS WEEK
This week we present on our cover page a picture of the
Liberty bell, with the prophetic biblical text engraved on it,
long before there was a thought of the American revolution.
One hundred and forty-three years ago, on July 4, 1776, Lib
erty bell rang out at Philadelphia, to announce the signing of
the Declaration of Independence. The peal of the bell, like
the first shot at Lexington, echoed throughout the world. The
vigorous peialing of Liberty bell started a crack, minute at
first, that gradually grew, interfering with the sounding metal,
until it became impossible, to ring Liberty bell again.
Liberty bell is silent today. It is held in state at Faneuil
hall, Philadelphia. At its shrine, and on its infrequent tri
umphal tours throughout the United States, it has been seen
by millions of citizens. Wherever it has gone it has been
greeted by throngs of men, wometL and children, to whom the
bell is a symbol of the liberty that we enjoy.
Liberty bell is silent today, in a material sense. It can
never ring out again, so that its notes will be audible to the
human ear." But who were the men who really rang Liberty
bell 143 years ago Were they .not the signers of the Declara
tion of Independence and the embattled farmers of Lexington,
who fought against the world's greatest obstacles for seven
long years so that liberty might become a reality? ,-
These were the men who rang Liberty bell 143 years 'ago.
Their descendants today can ring Liberty bell just as truly
as their forefathers did at Lexington, Concord and through
the bitter, cold winter at Valley Forge.
North Dakota's embattled farmers, by their declaration
of economic independence, have rung Liberty bell just as truly
as did the farmers of Lexington. And in 12 other states, each
day by the hundreds, more volunteers are pressing forward
to the battle. Looking toward the historic Liberty bell, they
might well say:
"We are coming, we are coming, three hundred thousand
strong."
And Liberty bell, in the hear future, will ring out as it
has never rung before.

HOW PAT WAS HURT
Here is the story that Walter J.

Dakota house of representatives, tells
to illustrate the attitude of certain re

"Ey en\ after the

can not quite re
alize that the world
hasn't been shaken
to its very founda
tions, but is still revolving on its axis.
"These persons remind me of Pat,

The answer is simple: "Satan lovesr
