<TITLE>08. Par 26-28</TITLE>L-26 Or in the last wars, this late Adolf Hitler, the Fuhrer of Germany... In the days of his great success and his dictatorship over Germany, what if this great Adolf Hitler went down to a soldier's home, a footman of his army and knocked at the door? And this little soldier raised up the curtain and saw that it was the great Fuhrer of Germany standing at the door, what an honor. How he could stick out his chest and tell the other soldiers, "Hitler came to my door. I was the honored guest. I was honored to have Hitler to come to my house."
He would be glad to say that. He'd throw open the door, stand at attention, and give the German salute, and say, "Sir, is there anything that the Fuhrer of Germany desires of his servant? I stand ready even to die for you. Is there anything in my house that you desire? You can have anything that I've got. What an honor it is to me. Today is my coronation day to know that the great ruler of Germany stands at my door, and me just a footman, just a soldier in the army. And you honor me, sir, to even stand on my ground." Why certainly it would've been a honor.

L-27 Or what, even tonight, if our most honorable and beloved president, Dwight Eisenhower... If he would come to the--your house, if he would come to the--the house of the best Democrat in this valley, though you would different with him in politics, it would be an honor to you, for he's an important man. He's still the president of the United States of America. And he's a highly honored man. You might disagree with him in politics, but yet he's one of the greatest Americans today, is our president, Dwight Eisenhower.
Well, if he would come to your house in the morning and knock at the door, you would be an honored man. Every newspaper in Oregon would pack that article, that President Dwight Eisenhower come to your house. How everybody would think how humble he was to come to our house, we poor people, him the president of the United States... It would be a great honor for you to receive him.
You would say, "Mr. Eisenhower, enter into my home. You bless... Your presence blesses us. You give us an honor."
And tomorrow, the papers would say, and the--the radio, and the televisions would pack the article, "President Eisenhower comes to Klamath Falls and visits the--a poor man." Why it would be a very humble thing for him to do. And it would be a great thing for you to receive him, and you would gladly give him his desires which would be a great thing.

L-28 Or just recently, when the queen of England, when she came over here to visit. If she would come to some of you women here, come to your home and say, knock on the door, and you'd go to the door.
And she'd say, "I am the queen of England."
Though she does--you do not have anything to do with her. Her domain isn't in America. But yet, she is the greatest earthly queen we have. She's an important woman. It would be an honor for you to entertain the queen of England. You'd say, "Come in, Queen. And you honor my house."
If she'd ask for any certain thing, little trinket or gadget you had on the wall, you would think it was an honor to give that to the queen of England. She is a great woman.
