Which excerpt from "the lottery" most strongly suggests that the lottery tradition has become less significant than it once was? "the original paraphernalia for the lottery had been lost long ago, and the black box now resting on the stool had been put into use even before old man warner, the oldest man in town, was born." "‘seems like there’s no time at all between lotteries any more.’ mrs. delacroix said to mrs. graves in the back row." "‘used to be a saying about ‘lottery in june, corn be heavy soon.’" "‘some places have already quit lotteries.’ mrs. adams said."

the mood is annoyed. they wish sandy was there do to the job right and since they dont like they way it came out now they are annoyed.

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.
