"A Child of Destiny" is the biography of Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, the British-born, American-educated feminist of the last century.

These houses have been built on the campus with funds raised by VFW auxiliary members in respective states. California will dedicate its second house in the near future. The creed of the home is, "We shall give these children the kind of home their fathers would have wanted them to enjoy if they were living today."

WHAT WOULD ALL that free cheese looks mighty good. Lots better than the bits of just plain food a working mouse spends all night collecting. In fact, here's a banquet! But—is it really free? Could the mouse, by any chance, get the answer by observing what's happened to others around him? Sure. But he won't. Being a mouse, he'll grab—or maybe just timidly nibble—and die!

Could the mouse, by any chance, get the answer by observing what's happened to others around him? Sure. But he won't. Being a mouse, he'll grab—or maybe just timidly nibble—and die! What about men? How do too many of us supposedly superior animals act? Just like the mouse. Just like we had been studying up to be half-wits. And we do so in the face of vivid examples—right under our noses and all over the world—that show us we shouldn't. Some men have grabbed at something-for-nothing, or "free cheese," in sudden and violent communist revolutions. Others have only nibbled at "free cheese" in timid and supposedly harmless collectivist bites—one after another—that will always spring the trap and result in lower living standards and loss of liberty, dignity, and spiritual well-being.

Why, you know that you—and all the rest of us—would take just one look at what had happened to other "free lunchers"—and then get busy working at making a good, or even better, living in tried and proved and honest ways.

Why, you know that you—and all the rest of us—would take just one look at what had happened to other "free lunchers"—and then get busy working at making a good, or even better, living in tried and proved and honest ways. In our own affairs as men—shouldn't we act as sensibly as we know we would as mice? We have gotten our high level of living—the envy of the rest of the world—because we invented and invested in and used arm-lengthening tools that enabled each of us to do more for each other. People elsewhere have gotten their low level of living—with slavery thrown in—through trying suddenly or gradually to live better by resisting improvements; and by turning to wasteful governments to redistribute the then rapidly falling level of output. We can live better only by producing more for each other. The very best way to do that is through having high individual incentives to create, work, save, invest—and then to earn both from our personal efforts and by having our savings work for us. Are we going to prove we're mice—or men?
