COURAGE
and Character
—George Washington—
To George Washington the nation pays
tribute once again. It is fitting that we recall
the Stirling qualities of this man of destiny
who so ably led a badly equipped and poorly
trained army to victory. No crisis ever de-
manded more versatile ability and knowledge
than that of 1776. And it is to die courage
and the true character of Washington that tne
United States owes its very existence. Aggres-
sive in the very fisc* of defeat, Washington’s
courage carried on. Today in the nation's
need of courage we add our tribute to Wash-
ington and the character for which he stands.

Men Unafraid
"DARE TO HAVE COURAGE
TO FIGHT ON TIL’ DAWN”
Americanism begins at home ... it
humblest cottage,... in die most
courage c
afraid..
^pretentious man-
... It begins right here in Tunpeon . .. with
. with you . . .It consists of living up to the
of our forefathers ... of being men un-
fighting on ’til the dawn and leaving for
our children’s children the right to also be prowl of
untarnished courage. . . . This is the month when
we observe and have observed the birthdays of two
great Americans . . . Washington at Valley Forge
and Lincoln in his darkest hour never faltered in
their decisions to see die battle through and to
carry on to victory.. - - The lives of these two great
Americans are the beacon lights which Hash
through the years and beckon us on through these
months of trying adversity. .. . We, who subscribe
to die presentation of this appeal to be of courage
and good cheer, feel that a worthy goal will have
been gained if this message renews courage for
even a few of die desolate and the discouraged ...
thus rekindling their spirit to face the morrows
with greater confidence. . . . Slowly but surely
values have been readjusted during the last three
years and a new perspective has been gained as to
what is essential to happiness. The dull gray
skies of - the long bleak winter of depression will
soon be clearing. The bright spring sun, of anoth-
er victory won, will soon be breaking through .. .
to warm our hearts ... to renew our faith in our-
selves and to make us glad that we too proved our-
selves to be men unafraid.
