The Milk and Honey Matter (AFRTS)

For your listening enjoyment, John Lund has... ...Jutty Dolly. My children. Oh, it's 4.30 in the morning. I'm insured by you. How much is Cunningham happy about? Sir, don't blame him. You mind, Mitch?

I've always wondered what milk and honey taste like. We'll return to our program in a moment. But first, I'd like to talk to you about housekeeping. Recently, a woman was interviewing a prospective maid and asked her how she was on White Housekeeping.

Well, I'm sorry, man, said the young lady. I never kept the White House. I admit, that's an old joke. But it generally gets a laugh. However, housekeeping is no joke. That's a job from which no one can escape.

Whether he lives in a house, an igloo, a military barracks, or a governmental building. building. Yes, housekeeping is a very important job, even in our government. Someone has to see that the plumbing doesn't leak, that electricity, oil, and coal aren't wasted, that the garden is kept in good shape, that the animals are fed, and that the people have a place outdoors

in which to enjoy themselves. Actually, all these governmental household tasks are the work of the Department of the Interior, which at one time was called the Home Department. The biggest job of the Department is conservation. The protection of the things that make our country a good place in which to live. The land, water, oil, coal, forests, minerals, fish and wildlife.

These are our natural resources. If it weren't for the conservation work of the Interior Department Before too long, all the farm and grazing lands would be washed or blown away, and all the wildlife would disappear from our fields and forests.
