Excerpt from Clashing Opinions at Controversial Commissioners Meeting
Kyle Ellington
SUSSEX COUNTY, SC - Tension oozed from the courthouse last night as debate raged during the bimonthly Sussex County
commissioner's meeting, which centered on the most hotly debated topic in the area: a proposed strip mall. The development
company, the county commissioners, and hundreds of concerned citizens gathered to deliberate on the issue.
While the meeting was intended to cover a plethora of topics, the proposed construction dominated the discussion. For four
hours, attendees debated, discussed, and dissented from one another.

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.

explanation:

the bazaar because it represents the inaccessible land of freedom to the narrator. mangan’s sister because she represents domesticity and routine to the narrator. the marketplace because it represents the suburban lifestyle to the narrator. the church because it represents spiritual healing and renewal to the narrator.
