ransparent dome. Maybe the whole earth.
Total environmental control.
By 1987, with the sum of recorded human knowledge doubling ev-
:ry two years, and with more time for dreaming — man will plan:
Linear cities —- honeycombs of steel into which your own living
init can be helicoptered into place and "plugged in. "
Life expectancy — limitless!
Oh, it is no future for the timid or the lazy.
But today's school-agers are within reach of anything they are
billing to reach for.
And in reaching — they fulfill man's noblest purposes.
What we have is God's gift to us.
What we make of it — that is our gift — to God.
FOR INCOME TAX
Taxpayers may use the Texas
state sales tax when preparing
their 1966 federal income tax
returns. The table is printed in
the tax instruction pamphlets
which are mailed to taxpayers.
According to Stanley Ferguson
administrative officer of Inter-
nal Revenue Service in El Paso
Texas, taxpayers are not requir
ed to use the table. The table
is furnished as a guide for the
conxerience of those taxpayerswho
itemize deductions on their fed-
eral income tax returns, but who
wish to use an "average" amount
for state sales tax and therefore
avoid detailed substantiation. Of
course, taxpayers have the choice
WHEN THE SPIRIT DIES
Historians tell of a great Indian Chief who resided with his tribe
in the Wallowa mountains in northeast Oregon. He was leader of
the Nez Perce Indians and was known as Chief Joseph. As the white
men moved into his beloved land, he resisted their encroachment
with a skill and a stubbornness born of desperation that gained him
the admiration of friend and foe alike. He was finally placed on a
reservation where he died in 1904.
Of late, there has been some question whether he actually died
in 1904 or at some later date. To one historian, the question is
irrelevant because Chief Joseph, "From the time he was incarcer-
ated. . . . and not permitted to return to Wallowa after the defeat of
the Nez Perces by the U. S. Army. . .he was just existing, his spirit
had gone. The great man we tell of in history had died. " In short,
when Chief Joseph was deprived of his freedom, he no longer de-
sired to live.
The artificial security of the reservation, where he was guaran-
teed three meals a day, was no substitute for freedom. Is therer
not a lesson in the story of Chief Joseph for all of us? We place a
high value on material security—so high that we are permitting
ourselves to be enmeshed in an intricate web of restrictions, taxes
and welfare programs that one day may make us all inmates of vast
reservation. Can our spirit accept incarceration any more than that
of the Indian Chief, who could not live without freedom?
should be set up soon. He also
said our street signs have been
ready to paint and that he needs
some help with the painting.
Mrs. James Lynch volunteered
to help with the sign painting.

FEW ACTS OF VICIOUSNESS are more revolting to normal peo-
ple than dog-poisoning. You wonder at the black depth of hatred
and vengeance that moves a human being to inflict such agonizing
cruelty on animals. It is the most cowardly form of vandalism. The
poisoner is a murderer at heart, for he well knows that some child
might be his victim.
Vandalism is a growing men-
ace in this country, as was a-
bundantly evident in many
communities during the holiday
season. Complaints poured in
of Christmas displays destroyed
or obscenely defaced, as well
as the usual thievery of lights
and decorations to which house-
holders are subjected.
Petty thievery is more under-
standable than outright vanda-
lism; the thief steals for gain,
but the vandal seeks also to in-
jure his victims, to express by
this means his malice and ha-
tred to society. To destroy or
deface something valued by
others temporarily satisfies his
black urge for vengeance, his
desire to debase and defame.
When this is accompanied by
a sadistic lust to cause suffering,
in an animal or his sorrowing
owner - the dog-poisoning van-
dal becomes a truly horrifying
example of human depravity.

A SNEAK PEAK AT 1987 (Part III)
By Paul Harvey
You will go to a doctor in 1987 mostly to prevent illness. You
will get 30 systematized automated tests. The results will be fed
into a computer, digested and analyzed for your doctor.
The doctor will operate with a scalpel as bright and as hot as
the sun — floodlessly — simultaneously vaporizing and resealing
body tissue as it is cut.
And sure-enough "smart pills" will be as commonplace as today's
tranquilizers. Pills which stimulate brain cells to absorb more
learning more quickly.
With understanding of the metabolism of bacteria, converted
sewage will become an important power source.
And with microminiaturization, you dainty earrings may be a
hearing aid.
Hospitalized burn victims relax, suspended in air — touching no
bedding. Floating on a cushion of air.
A hospitalized patient may shut
off intolerable pain by pushing
a button on a tiny box in his pa-
jama pocket.
And on Wall Street, 20 years
from today, 50 billion shares
will be listed. And half of the
products then represented on the
Big Board are presently undiscov-
ered; their names aren't even in
the dictionary yet.
We will have established ba-
ses on the moon with rotating
populations of scientists. But the
harvest of resources will have
been disappointing. Man's appe-
tite for further space exploration
will have diminished.
Man's fascination with "outer
space" will by then have been
replaced by a preoccupation with
"inner space. " Learning to un-
derstand himself, his brain waves, OA... UADVCY
will engross him. PAUL MAKVtT
This is as far into the future as responsible men can now see. But
beyond these soon-to-be-realized objectives — lies an even more
■xciting horizon — as research compounds itself.

In this modem age when more and more persons are dealt with
as numbers rather than as human beings, the individual still has a
place the mechanical brain cannot fill.
Commenting on the importance of maintaining individual rela-
tionships in business, Robert T. Person, president of the Public
Service Company of Colorado, warns of some things the soulless
electronic devices cannot do. He says: "As our technology advan-
ces, we must never be blinded by the glamour of sophisticated
computers.. . and the countless other wondqrs which may soon be
commonplace. Our business will be—as it always has been—based
on the principle of people serving people. Indeed, this concept
will become more important. Even today there are indications
that people, in an increasingly mechanistic world, are placing
higher and higher value on being treated as individuals—as human
beings--not as a sequence of numbers in some vast computer
memory. "
In dealing with customers and employees, no mechanical device
can take the place of the "in person" approach--appreciation,
friendship and understanding.
