Read the following paragraph: (1) A second reason that we should switch our school mascot from
the Hildale Chickens to the Hilldale Bobcats is that bobcats have an
important historical connection to our region and our town. (2) Even
though the ve been forced to move on because of overdevelopment,
these hills we call home were once teeming with the rugged animals,
and they greeted the region's first Norwecjan settlers who would later
establish Hildale (3) Our first majer, Olaf Crumble, kept a boocat as a
pet until his second wite objected. (4 Some people say we need to
embrace the present, not the past, and they believe the chicken mascot
should remain to represent our thriving egg packing industry (5)
Industries come and go, but our history is forever and stands as the
betrock of our common identity (6) In closing, the boocat connects us
to that persevering, pioneer spirit that we've lost, and replacing the
chicken with a bobcat will be a positive step toward reclaiming it

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
