QUITE,
QUITE SERIOUS
How badly would you panic if President
Kennedy suddenly decreed a National Survival Scramble as a practice
exercise to empty American cities for one week?
Would you be able to reason out and master
the elementary techniques which would keep you in minimum safety and comfort
once you hiked past the hopeless traffic snarls of Denver and got into the
mountains a mere 20 miles away?
It is not enough just to have seen
various ideas about personal survival in various random books --- ideas about
forced marching, wild food, emergency shelter, fire-making and morale. In order
for these ideas to be workable they must be practiced with serious discipline
and philosophical understanding at least once, for only experience teaches. And
remember, the rough estimates coming out of the civil Defense offices figure
realistically that about 15,000,000 won’t have to worry about paying their next
insurance premium if the current international insanity erupts into a
30-minute-warning squabble.
And even if it IS a false alarm, the sheer
chaos will do a fine job of mashing up humanity. Read H. G. Wells’ “War of the
Worlds” on this.
So wouldn’t you like to have that nice,
smug, secure feeling – like spiritual money in the bank – to know that if ever
you were asked to test your strength against the fury of Nature, you would not
be found incomplete; bankrupt? It takes so little effort to prepare yourself
with such fast resources of inner self-reliance. Do it.
And after you have learned
