Kansas City, Mo., has long been noted as one of the most corrupt spots in the country in the matter of holding elections. Itisunderthe iron heel of Tom Pendergast, no torions Democratic boss who gives out the word the size of the tna jority needed to put his benchmeD across and there are plenty of bis deluded followers ready to deliver the goods. Bnt it is a long lane that has no turning and Saturday a federal grand jury clamped conspiracy in dictments on 36 persons, mostly election officials in an effort to pnrge the city of the notorious November vote frauds. Theindictmentswerecalled “just a start’’ by United States Attorney Maurice M. Milligan. Fedetal Judge Albert L Reeves admonished the grand jnry three weeks ago to “reach for all, even if you find them in authority.’’ “ We can’t surrender the ballot boxes to thugs, gangsters and plug uglies,” Judge Reeves said. “ We can’t stand that any longer.’’ The Kansas City political picture has been dominated for years by the Democratic organization of Pender gast— one of the most powerful political groups in an American city. The defendants who were not precinct judges or clerks were pre­ cinct captains, with one exception Onewasdescribed in the indictment as a member of the Kansas City police fotce. Thirty of the defendants were named in our four indictments ac cusing them of conspiring to vlo late the civil rights act by miscount­ ing votes for President and con­ gressman. The other 10, whose names were not announced, were accused in an indictment that was kept secret. At least two of the indictments accused the defendants of erasing the cross mark denoting Republican choice and placing the *‘X’’ on the Democratic side. ,In one instance it was charged the Roosevelt Garner ticket was given 301 votes against 31 for Lan- don and Knox, when the “correct and truthful” count was Roosevelt and Garner 391, Landon and Xnox 141, Inthatsame precinct, the in­ dictment charged, Representative C. Jasper Bell, who directed the congressional investigation of the Townsend pensiou plan last summer was given 501 votes against 31 for Paul Byrnm, the Republican nomi­ nee, when it should have been 390 for Bell and 142 for Byrum.—Ex Nearly 9,000,000 Still Uaenpktyed.

Are We Really Free? Rabbi Morris Teller, in Supreme Council Bulletin The words of the title sound strange to one who lives in America When we think of freedom, we usually associate it with political liberty, the freedom' of speech ' and press, the freedom to do what we like, go where we like and say what we like without fear of gov ernmental punishment. We A- mericans contrast snch freedom thai millions of people in Europe must now endure, where under Black. Red or Brown dictatorship one must be on the guard not to he thrust into a concentration camp or exiled from the family, or even be brought home in a coffin, having summari Iy been dealt with by a government that permits no independence of thought or speech . How grateful we who enjoy A- merican freedom should be for our form of government, imperfect though it may be How prayerful and vigilant we must be that no damagogues shall import into A- merica, the Land of the Free, snch vicious doctrines as have vitiated most of Europe. Not in the spirit of chauvinistic flag-waving, but in appreciation of the blessings of true Americanism as compared with the eoslayment of the spirit that ty­ rants in Europe bave imposed upon their people, we may repeat the words of our anthem. Long may our land be bright With Freedom’s holy light. Political freedom, essential as it is, is only one aspect of human freedom. An .ancient Greek slave- philosopher said: I am a slave to my master, but in spirit I am a free perron; others may be free but really enslaved in spirit. In addition to political liberty we need freedom of the spirit. We shall not enter here into the philo­ sophical discussion of the freedom of the will and determinism nor shall we spend time on the psycho logical features of hereditary traits and environmental factors that combine to mould human character and to determine how free we can really be to choose our way of life. This we 3o know from our own experience. The average normal person can, in ' a large measure, choose to do good and desist from evil doing. Arewereaily freef Freethought is desirable, to be sure, but how many supposedly intellectual “free thinkers,” who think that in order to be an intellectual one must be irreligious, are free from one su­ perstition or another? They say that they cannot believe in religion, but it is a wonder that they still bave knuckles on their fingers con­ sidering the frequency with which they “knock on wood” ra the hope that no evil powers will mar their good fortune. - Horseshoes - on the door are still to be seen even in this automotive age — and the horse­ shoes are not meant for decoration but as a symbol of the good luck they are supposed to bring into the house. ;Are we reeiiy free of su­ perstition or does . each one of us still cherish a pet belief in one su perstitution or another, even if we' consider ourselves “tbo.enlightened to be religious”? Are we really free of the enslave­ ment that chronic undesirable traits of character- imposed upon us? Righteous indignation is virtuous and commendable, but indignation without reason is undesiiaple. , Are we fie^frotn bad temper, from.out­ bursts of anger. and irresponsible utterances which., we regret soon thereafter? Ambition properly guided is con­ ductive to advancement and im provement. Bnt are we feel from greed, envy, keeping up with the Joneses,” dishonest dealing in order to get ahead and the other numer ous wrong attitudes and unrighte­ ous conduct that result from bond­ age to misapplied ambition? Reading is the gateway to men ta! self improvement So much it- being printed! The printing.press­ 's roll off daily so many books anci magazines, as well as newspapers? In European countries ruled by dictators people must read only what is prescribed by the govern ment; other reading matter is pro scribsd lest “loyalty” to the Fueh- er or Dace, as the case may be, shall weaken. Here we may read whatever we choose; but what do many of ns choose to read? Are we really free if cannot “find time” or bave not the patience to read much else than the comic sheet or sports page or financial columns, or a cheap, inane motion picture ma­ gazine. or a foolish novel, when so many excellent books of interest as well as worth are available? Leisure is so characteristic of our day. The unemployed have too much of it, and even those who are employed no longer have to slave as in the past in order ’ to earn a livelihood. We are free to use our leisure as we will Are we really free if we waste all our leisure on useless, trivial and frequently dis­ sipating and dangerous health wrecking amusements? Indeed wholesome recreation and fun are necessary and necessary' and al­ lowable for the most dignified and serious-minded person, but to be come a slave Ito time wasting and character - weakening amusement habits is detrimental to one's spirit­ ual freedom, for to be engrossed in self-indulgence prevents one from utilizing oee’s leisure for intellec­ tual, aesthetic, moral, religious, as well as physical, self-improved and for self-consercration to helpful service to others. Are we really free? If we .have prejudice against an individual be­ cause th'at person happens to be a member of a certain race, family, rejigion social stratum or occupa­ tion; if we have not learned to judge every person npon his or her own personal merits, we are not really free from the narrowness and bigotry which eventuate in unjust hatred, all too prevalent and caus­ ing so mnch misery for so many victims of prejudice. Are we really free? Many other examples could be adduced to-show that even in this land of the free, politically speaking, many of us are not free in those matters of which we have spoken. The function of Religion, at its best, is -to motivate at help us to remove from our lives those ob­ stacles which prevent us from at' taining real freedom, which if at­ tained, makes for useful, blessed and noble living. If we are not really free we can try to gain that- freedom which will make us-really happy. 128 Married In Davie In 1936. J. W..

Two fates may befall a political leader who looms large in the Ameri­ can picture after he has been defeat­ ed for office He may pass quietly into political oblivion like Alton B Parker, in 1904, James M. Cox in 1920 Iobn W. Davis in 1924 and Al Smith in 1928, or be may commence to grow steadily in the estimation and affec­ tion of the people of the United States. The above naned all Demo- -rats, were forgotten by the populace after having been defeated for the presidency but we have bad others like Grover Cleveland and William -Jennings Bryan," who continued tr ievelop in the judgment of the peo­ ple. It must, therefore, be extremely gratifying to the friends of Governor Landon to note the increase in esteem toward him which seems to be de­ veloping among American citizens. Fhose who knew the Governor per­ sonally before and during the cam­ paign were impressed with his sound business sense, and his charming and somewhat modest personality. Per- sons had not been fortunate enough to come to close contact with him but Who bave met him since the election have been gratified with the experi­ ence. The recent Gridiron dinner at Washington furnishes an illustration of this fact. The Kansas Governor made an excellent impression among the guests there and be was “up against” some of the most discerning persons in the world. The impression which Lahdon left with the Gridiron Club was recently well summed up by Arthur Krock, distinguished cor­ respondent of the New York Times, himself a dose friend of President Roosevelt, who wrote, among other things: “The praise the Governor is receiv­ ing must surprise him. Laurels are being tossed at him from all over the land for sportsmanship, dignity of bearing and perfect taste. Thismust surprise him, because for the first time in a long while, the Governor was just being himself.” WritiDg of Governor Landon’s address at the dinner Xrock added; “Here ,was a cultivated, well groomed socially ex­ perienced American gentleman of the best type. AU of this was no surprise to those who knew the Gov­ ernor or bad even met him before. Butsome ofitwas apleasing revel­ ation to those who knew Landon only through the medium of the news paper, news reel, radio, or campaign pamphlet." Nothing can more impress us with the fine spirit of American democ­ racy than that less than two months after the close of a bitter presiden­ tial campaign, the victor and the van­ quished should sit down in peace and friendship together at a banquet pro­ vided by newspaper men who had developed a program of good natured railery which was accepted by tne “victims” with a true sense of sports­ manship. A comparison with the political situation in Russia, in Ger­ many in Italy and in unhappy Spain, is certainly revealing. It may be added also that Governor Landon appears about to become one of those national figures who achieve growth rather than oblivion through defeat. Whether he will ever again be a candidate for office, only the future can tell. It is becoming evi­ dent, however, that bis opportunity for public service is not ended.— Union Republican. Rep.

The following things that never happen in church as told by the Churchman, Episcopal publication, is so true to life that we are passing it along. Ushers calling for help in carrying the offering. Ministers insisting that the people attend only one service each Sunday in order to make room for others. A dozen people asking the minister for some really definite work to do luring the week. A dozen families asking the ushers to place thkm on the front seats. Everyone in the audience reaching for a hymn book when the number is announced and then singing heart­ ily. Every head reverently bowed dur­ ing prayer. A choir that does not find a single thing to whisper about during the service. The -minister' saying. “I have rushed from one thing to another all week. I have spent less than tbifee hours in revising this old sermon which is rather out of date, but I will endeavor to make it fit tbe occasion.” No whispering or reading of paperB during services. The ladies’ aid society hoping that the preacher’s wife will bring to the next meeting a long list of things things that ought to be done in the parsonage at once. The “old-timers” graciously giv­ ing way to newcomers, confident that the newcomers will be able to do much better work than they huve done. No one getting up or moving a- bout or leaving the room during the service. The middle of the pews filled first." Each one speaking to tbe person next to him at the close of the ser­ vice and idviting him to come again.. Thenames and addresses of all strangers handed to tbe minister at the close of the service.

She is an artis­ tically inclined girl who is a distant niece of Fluvanna's and a favorite of Hugh's. She happily tells Fluvanna she has become en­gaged to Jerry Purdue. CHAPTER I—Continued ^—3—“I’m telling you first, before anyone,” the girl went on. “I can tell you things, Fluvanna—you un­derstand. I’m exquisitely—divine­ ly happy! . -. . Why, Jerry-:— " die shook her head, murmured: “It’s, beyond words—the. feeling. I never thought anything so nice would happen to me!” “AU nice things should happen to you, EUen!” “r wish Mother were as easy to teU things to as you, Fluvanna.” She gave a rueful smile. “She won’t be pleased—nor Father. It Will be hard—that part—the telling them. Perhaps I’ll wait a while.” Fluvanna called up the stairway. “Ellen is here. Hurry down, Kezia.” . Ellen returned with the flowers arranged in vases. “I mustn’t stay for breakfast. I went out early painting in the ravine and left word that I’d be back by breakfast time. She’ll wony. I’ll stay until I see Kezzie. Nice to have her home, isn’t it? Not so lonely for you.” Fluvanna nodded. “Very nice. And I’d have been much lonelier if a certain person hadn’t been very kind about coming often.” “I? . . . Pouff! I loved coming . . . you’re just fascinating to me. I never get tired of being with you—perhaps fascinating isn’t the word.” She sat down on the davenport beside Fluvanna. “I fold Jerry I could tune in with you. He understood. He under­ stands everything.”Fluvanna patted her hand. “So all tiffs happiness came to you last night? May I tell Kezia?” ESlen laughed. “I don’t mind. And Hugh — do tell Hugh. He’s an understanding sort of person, my favorite cousin among hun­dreds!" The older woman knew she was getting pleasure out of her naive confession so she encouraged her. “You met Jerry In April?” "Oh, no—last fall. I’ve seen something of him for a long time. He would come—then stay away. You see, he thought his family would matter. His father is a roll­er in the mill and his uncle runs a cigar store. He said he couldn’t bring them to meet us and all the relations—you and the Ren- shaws, the Woods, the Moffats, the Debarrys—we are an awful crowd, you know. Not that he’s ashamed of his people! He says they are plain, nice people, saved to send him to school in the East . . . he’s very proud of them . . . just thought it wouldn’t do.” “Afraid to let himself go because your father has money?” EDlen nodded, then said in a low voice: “I told Jerry that the fact that he loved me meant every­ thing—more than money, more than family. It seems to me that when two people love each other, they give the most priceless pos­session—something greater than anything in the world.” Fluvanna kissed her impulsively. “You are a sweet child—and a very wise one.” , A silence, then EElen rose. “I must be going.”“Wait. Keda will be down in a moment. She asked me to call her early because she’s playing ten­nis.” She went to the stairway. “Coming, Kezia? . . . ESlen is in a hurry.” She heard Kezia murmur to her­self before she replied: “A fewminutes.”Bi a little while Anna announced Jiat breakfast1 was getting cold. ESlen started toward the door, the •ainbow expression' of her face Taintfar clouded. "I really must be running along. Tell Keda Fm sor­ ry—some other time!” She had scarcely started her car In the street and moved off, when Kezia came downstairs. Her arms stole around Fluvanna’s neck. “Alma Mater,” she murmured ca­ ressingly. Then she said with silky vindictiveness: “What was Riian Tfter at this hour in the morning— t worm?!’ “Kezia!" “I know—wanted to see what I was doing today and make plans I She doesn’t need to think I intend to go around with her all the time.” Fluvanna took a drink of coffee. “Why do you think: such unpleas- ant things? You played together.a great deal when you were small. Wouldn’t it be just as easy to think she was fond of you, wanted to wel­come you home?” Kezia sulked for a minute. Then she broke .a piece of toast, crumbled it thoughtfully. “I sup? pose I might have come down.” Her mother smiled as die saw victory in sight. Kezia was ashamed of her action, but had had to defend it. “She has a tough time at home. No wonder she comes here so much. Cousin Gavin is too nerv­ous to allow the radio to be played when he’s in the house, and her mother, pretentious and calculat­ing, nagging the life out of her— what a mother!” shuddered Kezia. “I have no reason to be envious of Ellen. If a man goes romantic over her—they think of Lizzie for a mother-in-law—then it’s good-bye Ellen!” She sat there, her eyes dreamy and misted. “I’m so mean,” she faltered, “and you’re so good to me! Oh, Mother, how do yoq put up with me?” Fluvanna was moved, as she al­ ways was when Kezia was peni­tent and misty-eyed, even though she knew it did not hinder her from doing the same thng over again directly. The girl rose in a sudden whirlwind and came around to her chair, laid her cheek against hers. “I know I’m horrid!” Charming, emotional and impul­ sive—like Jim. Her heart plunged with misgiving for Kezia, a vague anxiety. She caressed her auto­ matically.Kezia went back to her chair. “Be nice to her when she comes again—or, better still, telephone her.” “I will,” Kezia nodded between bites. “I’ll telephone her this noon. Pete told me about this Pur­due she has been going with—very smooth looking—like Ronald Col- man. They’re all betting it won’t last a month!” “I wouldn’t be too sure.” Kezia looked up quickly. “H-m- mm, have you a scoop?—she tell you anything?" “Not for the public yet. So keep it secret.” “No?” Kezia’s brows went up. "Well, is that a headline! Efllen put it over! Cheers for Efllen!” Kezia rose from the table. “TH breeze around there after I get through playing tennis and ask her to bring him over some night soon.” She dropped a kiss on her mother’s hair. 'TA tell her that while I’m immured In the halls of learning, she grabs off the best- looking man in town!” CHAPTER H The back yard lawn of the Hugh Marshes was veiled in the translu­ cent light which comes just before darkness. The west was a faint saffron streaked with mauve; birds talked in sleepy twitterings; a wood dove cooed in a willow. Dorrie reclined on a wicker chaise longue and Hugh sat near her smoking a pipe. Hugh’s eyes were on the arabesque pattern of .the trumpet vine. Dorrie allowed the evening pa­per to drift to the ground. “Hugh, I’m constitutionally lazy.” “M-mm.” “Aren’t you interested? Did you hear what I said?” “That you are lazy? Yes, I heard. I don’t know what we can do about it.” She shrugged and a curling smile that he never liked to see crept around her mouth. “It means nothing that you haw a lazy wife?”“You make pretty things for the house—curtains, cushions. Your clothes—you spend a lot of time sewing.” “But that’s what I like to do! I mean Fm lazy because I don’t do' the things I ought to—but don’t want to! You see there’s a distinc­tion.” - “I’m not complaining.” His mind slipped away to the plant. If they landed the Cincin­nati order and the one from Day­ton it would keep them running all through June, when there would be a natural recession. They nadn’t done badly for a small plant, con­sidering conditions. “You’re not thinking, about me!” said Dorrie sharply.“Who else?” He knocked the ashes out of his pipe. “If I think about the business, it’s for you, isn’t it?” “I’m trying to make a confes­sion, but you won’t listen." His left brow went up in its hu­morous twinkle. “What’s' bother­ing your conscience?” “I should have your family here once in a while. We’re always be­ ing invited to your relatives’. It’s one of the things I ought to do, but don’t want to.” “You mean you don’t care for my family?” . '■> “I don’t care for many people* do I?” she tossed back, smiling. “No; but I thought you. and Mother " “Fm fond of your mother. She has an, extraordinary effect on me. Makes me feel gooa inside and out —like a steam bath and a sooth­ing oil rub by n Swedish masseur.” “Gosh, Dorrie!”“Margery,'1 since -she has those children, doesn’t talk my language. I can’t get passionate over croup and adenoids and spinach, can I? But Kezia has a>streak of wicked­ness I understand. ETm to watch her maneuver her own purposes." (TO BK CONTINUED). 'Twas This Way • • B y L Y L E S P E N C E R C Westers Newspaper Uoioa* The Discovery of Insulin O NLY fifteen years ago, anyone who fell sick with1 diabetes was almost as good as dead. Doctors knew that diabetes occurred when a person had too much sugar in his blood. They also, knew that the pres­ence of sugar was due to an im­properly functioning pancreas. But no one knew how to correct the situation. Along about 1920, an inex­perienced' young doctor named Ban­ ting was struggling to get estab­ lished in London, Ontario. An ex­farmer boy and a war veteran, Ban­ ting knew practically nothing about scientific research, but he did have one brilliant idea.If the pancreas produces life-sav­ing juices that prevent diabetes, Banting thought, why not isolate this precious extract from animals and give it to diabetic humans? The very thought of such a pos­sibility set him on fire. He sold his office furniture and medical equip­ ment to get money for his living expenses in Toronto where he could try it out. Some of the world’s best scientists had already experimented with Ban­ ting’s idea. They had failed because they lacked his determination and ingenuity. With the help of Charles Best, a twenty-one-year-old chem­ istry student, Banting experimented first upon dogs and then upon chron­ ic diabetic sufferers. With his treat­ ment, most of them made amazing recoveries. The treatment consisted of daily inoculations of his pancrea­tic extract, insulin. Millions of peo­ ple all over the world owe their lives today to Banting’s phenomenal discovery. Ordering From French Menus Y OU may belong to that great army of people like myself who can’t make heads or tails out of fancy hotel menus. Words like pate de foi gras and hors d’ oevres, al­ways make me fed dumb. Even when the waiter asks me whether I am ordering a la carte or table d’ hote, I never knew what he was talking about until I looked it up recently. Table d’ hote is a French phrase literally meaning table of the host or landlord. Up until the middle of the Eighteenth century, restaurants and hotels as we know them now did not exist in Europe. The old inns were run on sort of a family plan, whereby everyone sat at the table of the host and took whatever was put before him. There were no menus from which one could order a la carte, which means according to the bill of fare. No one could pay for each dish separately, depending on what he wanted, but had to pay for the whole meal whether or not he liked all the courses. Thus table d’hote came to mean a complete meal served in courses at regular hours for a fixed price.A la carte and other such phrases were added by chefs who wanted to give an impressive air to their res­taurant. They can now buy books with all the French and Italian phrases written out, and often use them without' knowing what they mean. But when you get in a tight spot over one of them, you can al­ ways tell the waiter to*'Bring me an' order of bacon and eggs.” Ihey know what that means in any lan­guage. And then, as a final touch, you might add, “Sprinkled with par­ sley.” The Royal Gzune of Golf /^HARLES I of England played v-‘ golf near the Tower of London while waiting for his executioner to get his axe sharpened. Royalty and notables of all kinds have played1 the ancient game at least since 1400 and perhaps much earlier. But golf has become a popular sport only in the last 30 years! The invention of the rubber-cored ball about 1900. is the reason for its rise in popularity. Before that, play­ers had used little leather balls stuffed with feathers and later the gutta-percha ball. ' Golf played with the gut ball was no game for the ordinary dub. When hard and well hit by the profession­al, it might possibly go 200 yards, but the amateur was lucky if he could get' 150. Under those condi­tions, what fun was it to push a little white pellet around with a knobbed stick? The India-rubber ball introduced something new. The dub could get 200 yards and maybe more. With the new ball, second and third-rate players could score as well as many professionals had be­fore. That was what the game need­ ed. The first 18-hole course in Amer­ica was not built until 1893. By 1916, there were 742 courses, and this number balloned to 1903 in 1923 and 5856 in 1930. So now most wives are widows on Saturday afternoons, but it’s worth it!

CalotabsHeLrNature To Throw Off a Cold MillionshavefoundinCalotabsa most valuable aid in the treatment of colds. They take one or. two tab­lets the first night and repeat the third or fourth night if ne&ed.How do Calotabs help Nature throw off a cold? First, Calotabs are one of the most thorough and dependable of all intestinal elimi- nants, thus cleansing the intestinal tract of the germ-laden mucus and taxines. Second, Calotabs are diu­retic to tiie kidneys, promoting the. elimination of cold poisons from toe blood. Thus Cmotabs serve the double purple of a purgative and diuretic, both of which are needed in the treatment of colds..Calotabs are quite economical; only twenty-five cents for the fan*, ily package, ten cents for the trial package.

Farhaml Extension Dairy Specialist of State Collegel was in the county Friday, January 22, for the purpose ot increasing in­ terest in pasture inprovfement and starting a few demonstrations. Three farms were visited in three commities and plans were made for needing small acreages in Ken< tucky Blue Grass and White Dutch Clover for permanent pasture. Mr. Farnham recommends select ing a small area of half an acre, an acre or two acres near the barn Scarify this acreage with a spike tooth harrow or spring tooth har­ row on tbe contour Turning tbe soil is not recommended. Sow a» bout 30 pounds of Kentucky Blue Grass and 8 pounds of White Dutch Clover per acre. Tbe grass and clover seed should be sown separa telv because the clover seed are heavier than the grass seed and would not give uniform seeding if sown together. An application of old stable manure at the rate of 8 to 10 loads per acre is then put on. Hook team to a brush and drag or sweep the area. This would cover the seed and insure uniform spread­ ing of the mannre. Pastures seed­ ed in September and February give good results. The new pasture should then be forced off so that it might get a start. The pasture may be grazed in the late summer . and early fall the first year. ' Few people manure pastures. Pastures require humus because it belps hold moisture and furnishes plant food. A heavy application of manure insures a good sod of the Blue Grass and Clover mixture. This sod will then choke out harm­ ful weeds, conserve the soil and fur­ nish pasture for two or three cows per acre. Dairy cattle on abund­ ant pasture near the barn produce cheap milk. R R. Smithwick1 County Agent. New Program For Home Demonstration Clubs* Home Demonstration dub women have just completed one year of foods work which consisted not so much in a duty of preparing and serving attractive menus and re­ cipes, as a study in balancing menus, diets in deseases, and principles of cooking various foods to conserve mineral salts. vitaminB, and other valuable food elements neccessary for health. Home Improvement has been se­ lected as a major project for the coming year. Suchtopics asfolIows will be studied: I. Kitchen arrangement— Ciub women will attempt to make each kitchen (clean, convenient, comfort­ able. and cheerful) accepting as their motto “Efficiency cease where fati­ gue begins.” 2 Color in the Home. This phase will consist of a study of the lan­ guage, of color to another, and tbe arrangement of the various articles of color in the home to make a har­ monious effect. 3. Improving the Home Grounds —Under this head will come rooting shrubbery, suggested plans for plant­ ing, and good taste in the arrange­ ment of various flowers and shrubs. Flower seeds, cuttings and shrubs will be exchanged at club meetings. 4. Floor Finishes and Refinishing wood work. 5: Seasonal clothing. This will include plans and patterns for bring­ ing last years hats and dresses up to date; also cleaning and blocking. The topics mentioned and others such as Food Conservation will be studied at a season when interest in that topic is greatest. j The Kitchen Improvement project will be carried throughout the year. A number of club women have en­ tered a county-wide kitcben contest. These kitchens will be scored at the beginning of the study and again at the end of the year. A kitchen show* er will be given to the woman mak­ ing the highest score. j TheRecordIt only $1. Many Small Fish There are more than 34 species of native minnows, chubs, dace and shiners in.Michigan.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Troce Xs CaQed in the General Motors Strike—President’s Reorganization Program Criticized—Kidnaped Tacoma Boy Is Found Murdered. By EDWARD W. PICKARD ® Wcsteni Newspaper tU o t William S. Knudsen yT-1 HROUGH the efforts of Gover- ■*• nor Murphy of Michigan a truce In the General Motors strike was arranged, and the prospects for peaceful settlement of the trouble were bright. The gover­ nor persuaded Ex­ ecutive Vice Presi­ dent William S. Knudsen of the cor­poration and Presi­ dent Homer Martin of the United Auto­mobile Workers un­ ion to meet in his office in Lansing. Hie conference last­ ed more than 13 hours and at its conclusion the truce was announced. The essence of the agreement was that the union would at once with­ draw the sit-down strikers from the General Motors plants in Flint, De­ troit and Anderson, Ind., and that the corporation would n6t remove from the plant any machinery or dies and would not attempt to re­ sume production in . those plants for at least 15 days from the date of commencement of negotiations. The joint conferences for a final settlement of the points at issue Wfre to begin in Detroit January 18. Mr. Knudsen said “Negotiations will be conducted fcankly and every effort will be made to bring about a speedy settlement.” Mr. Martin asserted “The union will in good faith endeavor to ar­ rive at a speedy settlement.” Governor Murphy announced that National Guardsmen now in Flint, following an outbreak of rioting at a General Motors plant there, would remain temporarily “but I don’t consider this necessary.” The agreement on the armistice came as good news to thousands of idle automotive workers, and other thousands threatened with tem­ porary loss of jobs. _ At least 115,- OOO men are now idle, and that many more faced the same situa­ tion. SOME 400 representatives of the five railroad brotherhoods gath­ered in Chicago to discuss plans for obtaining increases of wages. A committee reeommended that form­ al demands for higher pay be made, but said it had not yet decided on the procedure or the amount 'oi in­ crease to be asked.J. A. Phillips, president of the Order of Bailway Conductors, said that while the committee had agreed that a wage increase should be sought, there had been no con­ sideration of hours of werk, pen­ sions or any other matter. TOe other four unions represented at the meeting were the Brother­ hoods of Locomotive Bngineers, Bailroad Trainmen, Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen1 and the Switchmen’s Union of North Ameri­ ca. The five groups, which repre­ sent the train service classifications of railway employees, are acting in­ dependently of the other. 16 stand­ ard railroad brotherhoods. PLANS for reorganizing the ad­ministrative branch of the gov­ernment were laid before congress by President Roosevelt, and many Democrats as well as the few Republi­can members were quick to express their disapproval of parts of the scheme.It would greatly en­hance the power of the executive, would abolish no federal agencies and would not result In any considerable econo­my of expenditures.Special committees Cf both houses were to begin draft­ing a bill to carry out the Presi­ dent’s desires, but it was freely pre­dicted that not iii at them would get through.Louis Brownlow, Prof. Cuther Gulick and Prof. Charles lteniam constituted the committee that evolved the reorganization plan for the President. The major changes they recommended are:Creation of two new departments headed by cabinet members—a de­partment of social welfare and a de­ partment of public works—and dele­ gation to the President of author­ity to “overhaul the 100 independent agencies, administrations, authori­ties, boards, and commissions and ‘place them by executive order” in the ten existing and twe proposed additional departments.Expansion of the ythite House staff, chiefly by the creation of. six “assistants to the President,” who Would relieve him of much of the routine executive work.Abolition of the office of controller general with his power to disallow administrative expenditures -m ad­ vance as violative of law, and crea­ tion instead of an auditor general with "power limited t. reporting an- ■uaU y tb-cerigress illegal and waste­ ful expenditures by the executive Louis Gen. Ckiering Extension of the merit system to 'cover practically all non-policy de­termining posts,” replacement of the civil service commission by a civil service administrator with a 'citizen board to serve as the watch dog of the merit system,” and in­crease of salaries to key positions to attract superior ability to a ca­ reer service. Devdopment of the “managerial agencies of the government,” par­ ticularly the budget bureau and agencies engaged in efficiency re­ search, personnel questions, and long range planning of the use of. land, water, and other natural re­sources. Opposition to the first, Oiird and fourth of these sections was pro­nounced and it seems certain that introduction of the bill will start a long and stubborn fight in congress. T'EN-year-old Charles Mattson, 1 kidnaped from his home in Ta­ coma, Wash., Dec. 27 and held for ransom, was found beaten to death in snow covered woods near Ev­ erett The body was nude and cru­ elly battered. State and city police and department of , justice agents, who had been held back to give the lad’s father a chance to pay the ransom and save his son, immedi­ ately began an intensive manhunt. One suspect was arrested in San Francisco and others were being traced. A car in which it was be­ lieved the lad’s body was carried was found. President Roosevelt expressed the hoixor of the nation over this brutal crime and authorized a reward of $10,000 for the capture of the kidnaper and murderer. Ber- nar McFadden added $1,000 to this amount. latest general Europeaii war scare has subsided. It was caused by France’s announced de­ termination to stop, by force if necessary, the al- __leged infiltration of German troops into Spanish Morocco, and Great Britain was ready to sup­ port the French with its fleet. But Hitler and his am­ bassador to France were able to con­ vince the nations that the stories were false and that Germany has no in­ tention of trying to grab any Span­ish territory. ,Paris cooled down at once, and to add to the peace atmosphere, negotiations were started for a trade treaty between France and Germany. Then, too, CoL Gen. aermann Wilhelm Goering, resplendent, first minister of Oie Cierman reich, went on ^n official visit to Rome and was informed by Mussolini that the recently signed Italo-British Mediterranean agreement does not change Italy’s friendship for Ger­many or its collaboration with the reich on the major problems of Europe. Goering and MussoUm were supposed to get together on the future course of their govern­ ments . concerning the Spanish civil war. T OSING the radio beam in foggy weather, Pilot W. W. Lewis pan­ caked his Western Air Express plane with a crash on a hill near Burbank, Calif., and two of his passengers were killed. Everyone else on the plane, eleven in num­ ber, was injured. The dead are Martin Johnson, famous explorer, and James A. Braden of Cleveland. Mrs. Osa Johnson, who accompan­ ied her husband on his adventurous expeditions in Africa and Borneo, was among those most seriously hurt There-will be searching inquiries into this and other recent air dis­ asters. Senator Copeland of New Yoik blames the Department of Commerce. Airline operators have long complained that certain radio beam stations in the Fac West are inadequate. Officials of the bureau of air navigation deny this, asserting: “Radio beams some­times play queer pranks in cer­tain areas and in certain moun­ tainous territories. Every pilot knows these peculiarities.” Down in Mexico there were three airplane crashes within a week, and it was believed eleven persons had lost their lives. TT IS pleasant to turn from poli- 1 tics, strikes and war and record the fact that Charles Hayden, New York banker who died recently, left about $45,000,000 to1 establish a foundation for the education of needy boys and young men, pecially in the advancement of their moral, mental'.and physical well being.” Mr. Hayden, who was a bachelor, also gave $1,000,000 to Massachusetts Institute of Technol­ ogy, $2,000,000 in trust to his broth­er: and nearly $2,000,000 to friends aid employees. un ioM> 'Jhmhd about International Fonrflnshing.

I tried the stuff once—just once— but the presiding judge in my case was a lady. Fqr years I’d been trudging as steadily as a milkman’s horse, whereas being a practitioner of a creative profession, I said to myself I really ought to stage some temperament just to make the fam­ily appreciate me. So I rehearsed my act and went downstairs one morning and put it on. So my wife looked at me across the breakfast table, and said: “I know what the trouble with you is. You’re bilious. You’ll take some calomel.”Well, what are you going to do when a beautifully staged emotion­ al outburst is diagnosed, not as the promptings of a tortured soul, but as liver complaint? You guessed it. I took the calo­ mel, and, I pledge you my word, haven’t had an attack since. • • • The Law’s Delays. O NCE a Massachusetts Supreme court reversed a felony convic­ tion because the prosecution, in filing tiie record, stated that the crime was committed '.‘on the fifteenth day of Junej' 1855” but failed to state whether the year was 1855 A. D. or 1855 B. C. ”And ever since then on quibbles almost equally, foolish—such as a misplaced comma or as upside down period—other high courts have been defeating the ends;, of justice and setting at naught the de­ cisions of honest juries. Science has gone ahead, medicine lias taken enormous steps forward, but law stai rides in a stage-coach and hunts with a flintlock musket. Sas it ever occurred to anyone that one reason for the law’s delays is a lack of the thing called common sense? • • • Dinosaur Footprints.DACK in 1858, a college professoi discovered on a sandstone ledge in Massachusetts a whole batch of imbedded tracks of the dinosaur— familiarly known tp geologists as dinah, just as among its scientific friends the great winged lizard is frequently referred to as big liz. At the time, the discovery created no excitement—merely a slight shock of surprise to the old families upon learning there was something historic in Massachusetts antedat­ ing the Mayflower. For the nature alists figured those tracks had been left more than 150,000,000 years ago, And they were suffered to remain nearly eighty years more. But here recently it develops that parties unknown have been chisel­ing Dinah’s footprints out and toting them off. This would seem to in­dicate either that America is get­ ting dinosaur-conscious or that dino- saurleggers are' operating, or both.So if a slinky gentleman should come to the side door, offering a prime specimen for the parlor whatnot, don’t trade with him, read­er—call the police. Next time he may come back with a domick off of Plymouth Rock or the corner­ stone of Harvard college or the name plate, from Cotton Mather's ntvm s. Cobb O -W N U Service. Meaning of “H. M.

Digest National Topics Interpreted By WILLIAM BRUCKART WASHiNCVCN D Washington.—If the first legisla­ tive act of the new. congress is to' measure its effi- P la n e eiency and itsEmbargo value as the poli­cy making branch of our government, there is no other conclusion than that our legislative body has sunk to a new low in its history. Of course, congress should not be judged by the mess it made in rushing through a resolution barring further shipment of air­planes and engines to Spain but on every side I hear criticism of the lack of common sense used in that instance. To recall some of the details, when congress convened there was a wild and surging wave demanding that the United States remain neu­ tral and avoid entanglement in the Spanish erisis. Everywhere and on a million tongues was heard the cry that the United States should take no chances; it should take all of the stitches in time th a t are necessary to make certain that we will not get involved in a circum­stance on European soil that threat­ ens to become another 1914. It has been and is quite evident that the people of the United States are committed to a policy of peace, a policy of neutrality. European developments have proceeded so slowly that even the merest; tyro has foreseen the ultimate clash be­tween communism and fascism about which I wrote in these col­ umns some weeks ago. In other words, the European situation has developed after a manner that would enable preventative plans to be laid on this side of the Atlantic ocean. But congress, in attempting to in­sure our neutrality, did probably the most unneutral thing it could have done. In so doing, I believe the consensus is that both house and senate demonstrated again the in­ ability characterizing congresses of the last few years to appraise a complete picture. It yielded to what it believed to be the public demand giving thought to the future. Let us analyze briefly what hap­pened. The congress convened, as I have said, with an almost unani­ mous demand from the country for a definite and workable neutrality policy. It convened with two or three individual business units seeking to deliver shipments of airplanes and engines to the so-called loyalist troops in Spain. The exporters of these war material sensed quick action by congress that would de­ stroy their contracts. Naturally, they put on all speed to get the planes and engines out of this coun­try ahead of an embargo. Congress, like so many boys in a college foot­ ball match, fell into the spirit of competition, a race. • • * Well, the answer is that Robert Cuse suoceeded in getting his planes _ . and engines onJfeaf* Em board ship andto It away from NewYork and beat in the race by twelve hours, a fact which congressional leaders knew when they enacted the resolution of embargo.So, it appears to be almost inex­ cusable that mfen of brains should have rushed a piece of legislation on through its channels containing an entire absence of neutrality in its very language. The resolution that was to pre­vent Mr. Cuse and several others from shipping airplanes and engines to Spain not only laid down the em­ bargo which was its purpose but it laid down that embargo specifically against Spain. Now, to those not versed in inter­national law, it may not be im­ mediately evident how dangerous such a precedent is. International law requires (and it is accepted everywhere among all nations) that there shall be no discrimination among nations unless those nations are declared to be belligerents. Spain has not been so declared. The war In Spain is a civil war insofar as it relates to any other nation officially. Of coursie, it is a well known fact that troops from com­munist Russia and nearly-com- miaiist France are helping Uie so- called loyalist government in Spain. It is equally well known that fascist troros from Nazi Germahy and fas­ cist Italy are supporting the rebel liberal General Franco in Sptrin. There facts would seem to make the war in Spain something more than a civil war, which, indeed, it is,, but as far as the United States is officially concerned, the war- in Spain remains civil strife. And yet our congress in the worst display of low grade intelligence witnessed in a long time, specifically places Spain in the category of a nation .at war with another nation'and says in a statute that certain commodi­ ties may not be shipped to that nation.To state - this problem another way, it would have been ^exceed­ingly simple to .have made; the leg­islation' apply to all nations and thereby to aveid embarrassment. There was time after the race with Mt. Cuse was lost to have made the correction of a mistake which should never have been made in the first place. But congressional leaders were swept ' overboard by the big wave and as far as I am concerned have demonstrated again their lack of ability to keep their feet on the ground. I do not know what it presages in the way of future legislation. It may be that after the excitement has died down, congress will again debate legislation and work out proper laws but the start certainly has been inauspicious.. • • * Attention ought to be called just here to the differences that have e arisen and prom- Som m Jse to cause diffi- Differences culties between th e ■■ executivebranch of the government and some of the legislators. Mr. Roosevelt, as President, seems to feel that he should have plenty of power to deal with problems like the Spanish situ­ ation and export of Mms without consulting congress. A good many New Deal Leaders in congress feel the same way. But there are many, who disagree w ith that idea. There is pronounced sentiment at the Capitol in fa­ vor of legislation that w ould definitely prohibit the exporting of arms and munitions of war but in­ cluding definitions and guide lines for those in the executive branch of the government to enforce. It is too early yet to tell what form the permanent legislation will take because of the circumstances just outlined. With the top heavy New Deal majority in congress, it would seem the better guess to pre­ dict that Mr. Roosevelt will have bis. way but on the other band, until such an issue becomes clear cut one cannot tell very far in advance how the two schools of thought will solve their problem and whether the Unit­ed States will be committed further to the one man control that would necessarily result from granting additional descretionary power to the President in a matter of this kind. There seems to be no doubt any­ where that sooner or later one of the nations whose troops is partici­ pating in the Spanish civil strife will commit an overact, an act of war. Some hot-headed individual in command of a ship or an airplane or troops guarding a border will take a pot shot that will wipe out a life or two and wipe out peace at the same time just as occurred when the comparatively insignifi­cant Austrian Archduke was shot in 1914. There can be no question that the United States must follow an international policy under these cir­cumstances that is most cautious. • • • Dr. Rexford Guy Tugwell, the fa­mous dreaming brain truster No. I ■ of the- RooseveltTngweHvt administration, Ltut Act has returned toprivate life — to an executive position with a molasses firm. Before he left his post as Undersecretary of Agricul­ture, however, the famous professor signed an older that is designed to curb lobbying by former employ­ ees of the Department in whose ad­ministration he had a hand. The aim of this order was an obviously worthy one because it was designed to prevent former offi­ciate or employees of the Depart­ ment of AgricQlture from using Hew connections with commercial groups from obtaining information or us­ ing influence not of the best sort from a public standpoint. With that order, there ean be no quarrel.. I find among astute observers in Washington, however, no serious supposition that the order would operate to deprive Dr. Tugwell him­ self or any other former, official'of high.standing from access to mem­bers of the Department’s staff: It just does not work out that way. It .never has and it never will, de­ spite the wholesome character of the good professor’s plans. The truth is that while such an; order may make lesser offknals more cautious and thus put a few obstacles in the way-of petty lobtqr-, ing, it is thoroughly-ineffectual in preventing the use of influence or the obtaining of information from that Department or any other in the government. Hie difficulty with this situation is that government offices are beini used as a stepping stone: to more lucrative jobs. The government doe; not offer ambitious and able me:, a security of tenure. Men who dem­onstrate ability in governmental po­ sitions sooner or later are offered jobs with great big salary checks attached and they would be less than human if they , did not con­sider such proposition when the; know that in the course of human events a great .turnover will take place in their own' department and they are swe£t aside by reversal at public political action. • Westers N ew aoscr Vnlaa.

C I S T A R I I D U S T I $ JMovie • RaJio $ ***B j VIRGINIA VAlB*** ONE of the trade magazines of the motion picture in­ dustry startled the workers in the business recently by pub­ lishing a report on the popular­ ity of the screen stars. F o r months, people had been told that Robert Taylor had climbed Ifo the very top: that he got more fan mail than Clark Gable did, that his name above a thea­ ter was magic, because it drew so many paying customers; that, in short, Mr. Taylor was tops. But — according to this report, Clark Gable is the screen’s most popular actor! Last year Shirley Temple held that position. This year she is sec­ond. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rog­ ers as a team come third, Robert Taylor fourth, and Williain Powell fifth. In case you’re interested, the oth­er leading stars are listed in this order; Myma Loy, Claudette Col­bert, Norma Shearer, Gary Cooper, Fredric March,' Jeanette MacDon­ ald and Nelson Eddy as ;Lionel Barrymore. It is nice to report dtat Jj Cagney’s new picture, “Great Guy,' is one of his. best. It had to be. He made it for Grand National you know, a new organization, and if it hadn’t turned out well we might have had no more Cagney on the screen for a while, at least. After all his troubles w ith studios it is pleasant to know that he is once more on th e big time and that his comeback is really a triumph. —*— Have you listened to that new radio progrhm, “Do Ton Want to Be an Actor?” If you haven’t, do! It’s very entertaining. People who are in the audience are given roles in scenes that are done before the microphone, and after each per­ formance the best woman perform­ er and the best man are given movie tests by Warner Brothers. Ifs quite possible that some of-our future stars will be developed in this way. H the radio programs given by “Myrt and Marge” for so long were among your favorites, you’ll be glad to know that a new series done 6 y that popular couple has started. It’s a family affair, for "Myrt’s” son is now on the pro­gram, and “Marge” is her daugh­ ter. The son, George Damerel, used to go to the University of Southern California, but he Irft college to tour with his mother and sister when they went on the stage. Looks as if “Myrt” had built up a pretty good business for the family by writing those sketches, doesn’t it? Grace Meore has had to abandon her career on the concert^ stage and on the air, temporarily, in order to take a much needed rest. She has been working hard in pic­ tures—In fact, she has turned, into a real trouper, and the tempera­ment that used to cause so much trouble is well under control. — ■*— In “Stowaway” you’ll see Shirlv Tempie doing !nutations of Eddie Cantor and M Jolson and doing them well. The funny thing about it is that the child star never has seen either of them; just worked the imitations up from w h at she she was told about the two gentle­ men’s work.—-S- Hollywood is still shocked over the suicide of Ross Alexander, al­though his friends Imew that he had never ceased --to grieve over th e death by suicide of his first wife, Aleta Freile, a little more than a year before. It was said that she killed herself be­cause, ' coming to Hollywood from the New York stage, she could not seem to get ahead in pic* tures. Young Alex­ ander was doing very well with his career, and his second wife, Anne Nagel, is one of the screen’s pret­ tiest young actresses. ODDS AND ENDS . .' .

YOUNG PEOPLR AMD ADULT TOPIC- Alooholic Beverage.—a Financial Asset or Liability? Temperance Sunday brings a greatly needed opportunity to con­sider the entire question of intoxi­ cating liquors. When the prohibi­tion amendment was under fire the proponents of repeal contended that it would reduce taxes, cut down un­employment, eliminate bootleg liq­ uor, return men and women to tem­perate and decent habits. It is .worthwhile noting that not a single (me of these' expected benefits has materialized.Taxes on liquor have not reduced general taxes. Alter all, what de­cent American would want his taxes cut with “blood-money”? Bootleg­ ging thrives more flagrantly than ever. Evasion of liquor taxes in­ dicates that about half of America’s liquor is "bootleg.” The specter of unemployment still stalks the land. And are our people temperate? One could laugh if it were not so tragic! The consumption of liquor is fast becoming a national disgrace. And the tragedy is that Christians have for the most part supinely said “What can I do?” and have done nothing. The repeal of prohibition waq brought about by the indifference of American voters. The issue was finally settled by the votfes of less than 23 per cent of the registered voters. Where were the other 77 per cent ? Where are they now?But our lesson goes deeper than the matter of intoxicating liquor. It deals with two contrasted modes of living. What a man is- deter­mines what he does. It he lives for the flesh he will pander to its tastes. If he lives in the Spirit he Will not only be right in his atti­tude toward liquor Init toward every phase of life, yes, even toward eat- lug. Let us consider these two ways of life—and weigh carefully our own life decision. In which way do I walk? Remember that one may live to the flesh even though he is, not a winebibber. It is a matter - of heart interest and relationship to God. L Uvhig In the Flesh. The word flesh in Scripture does not refer to our physical flesh and blood, except as it is dominated by self-will. But when self-will rules the body, and God’s will is ruled out, a man lives in the flesh. Our lesson gives a terrifying pic­ ture of such a life. It makes a man a senseless lover of pleasure for pleasure’s sake (Prov. 21:17). He is a lover of wine, a glutton (Prov. 23:20, 21), careless (Matt. 24:48), disorderly and unfaithful (v. 49), and a professed follower of Christ because of what it brings him (John 6:26). His end even in this world is disgrace and poverty, and in the world to come, eternal judg­ ment (Matt. 24:51). H. Uving hi the Spirit. “They that are Christ’s have cru­cified tiie flesh with the affections and lusts” (GaL 5:24). They are therefore admonished to “walk in the Spirit,” that is, to submit their Uves to the control and guidance of the Spirit of God. In other words seek God’s will, not self-wilL TThat kind of men and women are those who Uve in “the spirit”? A re-reading of our lesson texts re­veals them as, wise, faithful, dili­ gent, temperate, not foUowing the Lord because of any gain to them­selves. Wbat is their reward? In this life they are entrusted with more work for their Master (Matt. 24:47). The reward for Christian work weU done is more work. So if you are lazy, don’t begin. But if the-fires of holy ambition to serve him bum within your soul, go on, and he .wUl lead you further on until at last in the world to come you will have the all-sufficient reward of his “WeU done,' good and faithful servant.” Brave Men AU brave men love; for he only is brave who has affections to fight for, whether in the daily battle of life or hi physical contests;—Hawthorne. Trntii In U ttie ThingsI have seldom known any one who deserted truth in trifles, that could be trusted in matters of importance. —PaIey- FianaeIe of KnendedgeThe end of all learning is to know God, and out of that knowledge to love and imitate him.—Milton.

AMERICANS By Elmo • v«t«i' ScottWatson “Garrison Finishw "T'HAT was a garrison finish!” * you exclaim when the. home team, which has been trailing for most of the game, comes from be­ hind to win in tbe last minute of play. And when you say that you are perpetuating the fame—not of a basebaU or a.football player, but of a jockfy! Edward H. Garrison was his name and he started life as a black­smith’s helper in New Haven, Cohn. Then' he began hanging around the racetracks -and occasiocaUy was given the job of exercising one of the thoroughbreds. It wasn’t long until he was a full-fledged jockey, who made it a practice to hold his mounts in during the greater part of a race because he mistrusted the staying power of a “front run­ ner.” Then he began to boot and whip as they came down into the stretch where, as he said, “the mon­ ey is.” In 1886 one of these “come-from- behind-to-win” drives carried an outsider, Dutch Roller, owned by James R. Keefie, to victory in the Great Eastern handicap at Sheeps- head Bay, N. Y., and after that a “Garrison finish" became a by­ word on the turf. But more, famous than that was Garrison’s victory on Boundless in the $60,000 World Fair derby in Chicago in 1893. When the entries in this race went to the post, Garrison begat, to stall. On one pretext or another, such as fixing his straps and bis saddle, he managed to delay the start of .the race for an hour and 42 minutes! He spent most of this time on the ground, thus taking the weight off his horse, while foe other horses were fidgeting and wearing them­selves out under foe weight of their riders. When at last they were sent away tc the excited cheers of 100,000 spectators, Boundless’ jo ck ey trailed the field for almost foe en­ tire race. Then there was another “Garrison finish” and Boundless, a 15 to I shot, came home foe win­ner of $60,009—or rather $59,000 for the judges fined Garrison'$1,000 for his part in the dday at the post. “Snapper” won, lost and partly regained a fortune in racing. He quit as a jockey in 1897 and later served as an official at numerous tracks in foe South. His last days were spent in Florida where he died a few years ago at the age of sixty-two. John Smith T. LTIS name was John T. Smitn 1 1 But that was too common. So, in . order to make people remember his hame he began signing it “John Smith T.” As such it has come down in history, albeit the figure of foe man who bore it is a shadowy one. We know that he was famous in the early days of .Missouri as a duelist iand land speculator and that he caused considerable trouble for Moses Austin before that worthy went to the Southwest to play an important role in foe history of the Republic of Texas. . Historians are beginning to sus­ pect that John. Smith T. was deeply involved in the Burr conspiracy, as was another John Smith—a United States senator from Ohio who missed being,expelled from the sen- ate by just one vote. But how prom­inent Jrfm Smith T. was in that mis­ guided adventure is StOl unknown and he is remembered chiefly be­ cause he was uniquely successful in escaping oblivion when “Fate tried to conceal him by naming Ium Smith!” ' At least four others who at­ tempted to thwart Fate thus are re­corded in foe rolls of foe United States army. J. Allen Smith of Pennsylvania changed his name to J. A. S. Izard when he entered the United States Military academy at West Point but when he was gradu­ ated in 1825 he resumed his real name. One of his classmates was Joseph Brice Smith, who was graduated as Joseph S. Bryce, be­came a second lieutenant and re­ signed from the army in 1832. At the outbreak of the Civil war he bet came a captain of volunteers and in 1865 was "brevetted a major for gallantry during foe war. In 1830 a William Smith entered West Point as “William D. Fraser” but he was graduated under his right name. He rose to a captaincy and was brevet­ted a major in 1848 for “merito­ rious service” during the Mexican war;' : The fourth Smith who changed his name rose the highest in military life. He was Morgan Lewis Smith, who for some unknown reason en­ listed ih foe army in 1845 under the name of Martin LvSahford and served as private, corporal and ser­ geant during foe next' five years: The orfbreak of foe Civil war found him using his real name again. He 'became colonel Ot the Eighth Missouri infantry in. 1861 and was made a brigadier-general of volun­teers in 1862, holding that rank until he resigned ia'1885.__ A Mental Inventory— Wishes Are but Wasted Thonghta Unlera We Work to Attain Fruition P' is well in these early weeks of the New Year for us to take a sort of mental inventory of our­selves, and see if we are foster­ ing any of the good things which we openly spoke of,. or silently wished would materialize during 1937, Have these things already gone into the dump heap of futili­ ty? Have they been scrapped be­cause of no effort on oiir part to further their becoming realities? Are we aware of . this scrapping? Or do we still vaguely suspect they will materialize or be fulfilled just becuse we think of them with desire? Action Essential. Most of us remember the Ma- cawberism “Name a wish and gratify it.’ There have to be things set in motion before a wish can come to fruition. Unless we actu­ ally want a thing enough to try to get it, we cannot want it very much. Our New Year wishes if they are to be fulfilled should be more than thought-seeds by now. They should have been planted and tended and perhaps, have be­ gun to show tiny sprouts. Diversity.

They are dealing with ev­erything from fluorescent dies and col­ored bubbles to concentrating lamps and floodlight systems.The plan is not to create spectacular effects.in the usual sense of the term, says Mr. Whalen, but rather to create de­signs in light that will make their appeal through their magnitude and their sheer beauty.; Her Seat ShaD Be Legioo 19*9 Mauwe six dolLati? : NEW YORK, (Special).—Miss Liberty, of the statue in New York Harbor, it al­ready playing in her newest rale.

It would not be stating it right to say that if the General Assem bly wants Raleigh ministers to pray for them, they will have to cross their palm with cash. That would be a little far-fetched. Yet the suggestions contained in a resolu­ tion, copy of which was sent to Speaker Gregg Cherry, could be construed as meaning just that. Here is the resolve: “.. .. that the Raleigh Ministers’ Association request the Speaker of the House of Representatives to ap­ point a lull time Chaplain who will be duly compensated for same by a regular stipend.’’ And they do say that Speaker Cherry “is averse, to the proposal of the Raleigh ministers that a chap lain be added to the payroll of the House.” At any rate, for the time being, the House opens, without benefit clergy, by having the read­ ing clerk recite the Lord’s prayer. In reality that covers about all, leg islative Johg goings or short-com- ings, but still there are those who wiil contend that the law-makers stand in need of special prayer at times. , The Senate has-been more thoughtful, more considerate. At the opening session the upper body broke the rule of years and named a retired Methodist preacher as its chaplain. He is listed as a first class laborer” for which the wage is $3 00 per day. In all seriousness, there is no consistent reason why the House should not have a paid chaplain. If Speaker Cherry carried this idea of economy into all nooks and crannies of bis department it would be different tale and one that would look more.appealing in print. Be cause Raleigh ministers have been willing horses' all through the years, is no reason why the State should continue to ride tnem— without a bit of fodder. Three dollars a day is not tqo much to pay for all the prayer the members of the lower house will stand in need of during the days ahead.—Statesville Daily. YeGadsAndUttle Fishes. The Democratic National Coir- mittee is in a hole something Iil e $12,000,000 and have adopted a unique plan of forcing those wlo have been appointed to office under Roosevelt to help wipe out this de­ ficit.

Crack Your Own Nots- “Tbere is meat inside the nut of but it takes a man to crack it,” says the Southern Fanner ' “A man who doesn’t wait for some one else to do the job for him. "There once were hundreds of lovely tame squirels in a city park, and a rich old lady got into the habit of coming each day to feed them. She watched the squirrels carefully and noticed that it was oretty bard foiuhe little animals to crack tbe nuts to get at the meat inside. When she died, soon after her observation Of the tiny beasts’ habits, she created an endowment under her will which provided that thereafter all the squirrels in her favorite park should be fed . 00 cracked nuts, so that they wouldn't have.to work so hard. ‘‘Six months later all the squir­ rels in that park had died from physical inertia and decaved teeth, and a bunch of tough squirrels who had been cracking their own nuts moved in and took possesion of the nice trees" and squirrel houses in the old lady’s park. Is a moral necessary?”—Ex Returns To Pester. Tbat “a-l-l” that somebody quite inexcusably failed to yank out of the sales tax plank in the State Demo­ cratic platform, has returned to plague tbe present Bession; of the General Assembly, which already an­ ticipates enough causes of headaches | tolast the law-makers a lifetime. You will iremember that tbe State platform says: “Economic improvement will cow permit the elimination of the sales tax levy on a-l-l necessities of life and on meals at boarding houses and all public eating places and hotels. The Democratic party pledges itself to accomplish this in the 1937 session of the General Assembly.” Mindful of this pledge, a bill has been properly introduced, specifying the removal-of the sales tax from 'flour, lard, meat, molasses, salt, sugar coffee,” which, we take it,: are meant to cover the “necessities” as cited in the pledge, along with the snacks at the listed eating places. There have been and will be various versions of what constitutes “all’' the necessities of life but obviously if the members mean to follow their plat­ form literally, they will have to add a few items to the above list. The courts being as meticulous as they are, it becomes almost a necessity for one to drape bis body in some sort of clothing, to keep within the law, if not to keep reasonably comfortable. Some folks find shoes a necessity while others insist that socks be al­ lowed to go with them. However, we submit that tbe leg­ islator was out of order who intro­ duced a bill to remove the sales tax from tbe purchase of caskets and burial supplies.up to $100, as a sup­ plement to the necessities list. Even the most rabid McDonaIdite must admite that these are the “necessi­ ties of death,” and to which tbe platform does not concern or com­ mit itself. Mr. Hoeyl soon after this commit­ tal by the party chieftains, explain ed that the Asheville editor who wrote tbe platform, was simply free­ wheeling along, not watching for red lights, and likened “all” to same of the superfluous words lawyers ring in to earn their fee. Hegave a general version of what the platform was meant to meant to mean; he was o- erwhelmingly elected, and it is fair to assume that his version was thus endorsed. Su why go on quib­ bling about what constitues a-l-l. Jjiat take Governor Hoey’s version.

How Much Is Enough? ,.William Green, president of tht American Federation of Labor, ex presses the opinion that industry can never reach capacity production un­ til everv man who is willing to work is employed, and every family has at least $3 600 a year to live on Granting that those are desirable objectives, one wonders whether Mr. Green has not fallen into the common error of confusing tbe yard stick With the goods. Thirty six hundred dollars a year —roughly $75 a week—is about three times the average wage in American business and industry to­ day. But .who is going to guaran­ tee that, if the time ever comes when □obody earns less tban that, it will buy three times as much of. the necessities and luxuries of life? The dollar of today will not buy as much food, clothing or shelter as the dollar of ten 01 even five years ago did. It is not many years since $3 a day was regarded as high wages and men lived and brought up fami­ lies of less than $15 a week. The real measure of wages is. or ought to be, what the wage will buy regardless of size in dollars. Values depend upon tbe amount and cost of the labor which goes into the making and merchandising of com modit ies.—Exchan ge. What Does She Mean “More Power? Miss Perkins, secretary of labor— we have been calling her Madame Perkinhs btttThe New York Times holds out that this is an errors—crav­ es more power. She follows up her attack upon the management of General Motors with a demand that her department he given enlarged authority by Con­ gress to deal with such situation as the refusal of the company’s presi­ dent, Mr. Sloan, entails. That’s about all she has to say, just, “more power.” But it is not all that needs be said. Miss Perkins ought to explain and define and let us have the de­ tails. Does she want “more power” to act arbitrarily on her own account in case of such an empasse as this? Does she want “more power” to compel private management to bow and scrape and truckle to what she may dictatorially decree should be done? Doe's she want “more power” to force more business and industry to bring in tbeir books, produce tbe records, furnish the accounts, lay their private affairs open for tbe inspection of herself or of labor leaders to use for creating Dre- jadiced public opinion? Ordoes Miss Perkins want “more power” to bring governmental authority to bear in order to force compulsory compulsory arbitration of disputes between capital atd labor? What is the type- of the “more power” that the Labor Secretary wants and what does she propose to do with it in the event that Con­ gress should be so unwise as batily to grant it? It would be 'informing to have her say.—Charlotte Observer. Good Old Booze.

Will A Man Rob God! Charles G. Hamilton Some thieves broke into our :athedral at Evenston a few vearf tKO and stole the collections Sunda> evening. George Craig Stewart, 'he present bishop of Chicago, but then dean of the cathedral, said that Coronceinbis.lifehe had a bright idea. So he announced in the Chi­ cago papers that he wanted the thieves to come to church Sunday and that he would preach to them1, ^ut not attempt to have, them ar- etnpt to have them arrested. Ol ■nurse tbe church was crowded Th< text was “Will a man rob God ” (Malachi 3:8.) Bishop Stewart said that be was glad to have the. thieves theives there. There were several things he knew about them—they .vere young, because tbe average age of criminals is about nineteen; the; were young, because the average age of criminals is about nineteen; they were br< ad minded and not cor- firmed to narrow lines of creed and sect, because they robbed the Baptist the Roman Catholic'as well as the Episcopal church that night; they were just beginning, or they woulo have known that there is ,more money on Sunday night in Chicago or other places than churches. He assured the thieves that he wanted them to feel ait home because they were among thieves. There were people there who steal reputations, who have ruined many peoples lives by vicious gossiping. The thieveE should feel at home; there were peo­ ple there who stole from the poor and became rich thereby. There were people there who stole from God con­ tinually; who wore out the red plusb cushions on the seats and used up tbe heat and light without ever giving a penny for them. The congregatior did not miss the point of the sermon. Will a man rob Gad? Look at the foot of the cross— there are- met. there robbing a dying Man of hie clothes,1 taking from the Son of God his last few-possessions. Many rol God of money. We are to give at God has prospered us, not just at others give. If the Jew tithed, the Christian mu3t do more. We woulc not be willing to give up the New Testament, to give up the revelation of God in Jesus, to omit tbe cross and resurrection, to forget tht Christmas story and to have onlj the inspired but scattered lights ol Old Testament; yet if we do not give more than a tithe, we are placing ourselves lower than the Christiao basis. The governor had made it possible in Mississippi for everyone to give a “tenth” by issuing tokens but Christian giving never stops at a tenth. Beware of covetousness, of greed, of loving money. There is no deadlier sin than money loving The church is worth more to the one who gives more; many of you have no interest in the church be­ cause you have nothing invested in it. Your wife doesn’t work to pay your golf club does, nor do you pu' for your gasoline. The tobacco bill of Mississippi is over three times tbe church expenditures. The chewing gum expenditure in the nation is al most the same as the church con­ tributions. What a sense of values! You have never learned anything in your life except from missionaries; in the family who taught you to cook and sew, missionaries in school who taught you to read and write. Even the gospel according to St. Culberson which some of you live bv faithfully was taught you by some zealous missionary. Everyonesbouid have a part. An employed family in Aberdeen should give at least five dollars a month. Outof an income of two thousand dollars, sixty is one thirty fourth. You need to remem­ ber that you will have to render ac­ count to God if you have robbed Him of money. Will a man rob God of time? Yes. Church time, one hour a week— sometimes stolen from God. Week day services—robbed. The EpiscO' pal churches celebrates certain Sain’s days—when you refuse to attend these services, you just think you are not. Men rob God of Sun­ day. A Chinese minister used this parable—“A man went to market with » eirieff e£ eevsa aasaa * ' >ar asked him for alms, and he gave nim six of them. Instead of being hankful, the beggar followed him and stole the seventh coin. What in abominable wretch! Yes, and vould you alse to whom God has riven six days, steal the seventh al- io?” We steal time we should take to read the Bible. Suppose we paid iB much attention to'our souls as to >ur clothes. Suppose we spent as much time reading the Bible as raid­ ing our papers, knew as much about “h£ lives of the saints as the lives , of screen stars, worked as hard j a t. rhurch as at bridge, sent our children to Sunday school as regularly as . to oublic school, studied our creeds 'as we political platforms.

Ayearfrom now it will be gone with the wind of fsshion, and the Bible still unread. No time for prayer—stolen for other purposes. No time for helping others or making a better, community. A man will rob’God of his life, four life is not yours. You did not create yourself. Your life is just loaned to you. On a squeaky old whirring phonograph a girl learned ;rand opera so that when they moved to a city she could follow the music completely. Her father decided :to buy a new instrument—and to dem­ onstrate it. they played for him “the music go s round and round.” After some more jazz, he asked if they had any music. No, they did not make many musical records now on their improved tone methods. We have in our church a wonderful instrument — but no music comes from it. Until jce surrender our lives to God, the music of our lives will not be filled with harmonies of heaven and the symphonies of the stars. Will a man rob God. God grant you may do so no longer! Fun In Politics. Many amusing things happen in politics, but you’ll havt. to go a long way to find anything more hilarious than sometning which occurred at the meeting of the Democratic State Executive Committee in Raleigh last Proposals were being made to change the plan of organization in the state.' Among them was a sug» gestion that onlv election officials or members of a voter’s immediate family should be allowed to assist him in marking his ballot. This would mean the elimination of so-called “professional markers” who are to be found frequently at the polls, working in the interest of this or that candidate. You should have some of the speech-making which followed that' suggestion! Men like ,Iohn Folger, of Surry County, and Carl Bailey of Washing­ ton County, raised their hands in holy horror over the suggestion that there was crookedness in the Democratic party in North Carolina. Tney ex­ pressed the opinion that even to con­ sider sucb a suggestion was a reflec­ tion against tbe purity and sanctity of Democracy in this grand old state';. Phooe)'! That’s nothing but a lot of twaddle. If Mr. Folger and Mr. Bitiley and others don’t know that Democratic workers in eome sectiors of North Carolina are as crooked as a ram’s horn, they’re deliberately blinding themselves to the true factB. Why in tbe world should any honest Democrat object to the passage of a resolution having for its purpose the curbing of crookedness which every­ body knows is. existing?

He drives her to the Marsh home where her widowed mother. Fluvanna, a warm-hearted, self-sacrificing and understanding soul, welcomes her. Kezia’s sis* ter, Margery, plump and matronly with the care of three children, is at lunch with them. Hugh's wife, Dorrie, has pleaded a previous engagement. On the way back to his job at the steel plant founded by one' of his fore­ bears, Hugh passes Doc Hiller, a boyhood friend whom he no longer sees frequently be­cause of Dorrie’s antipathy. Fluvanna Marsh wakens the next morning from a dream about her late husband, Jim, whose unstable char­ acter she fears Eezia has inherited. Soon Ellen Pendleton comes over. She is an artis­ tically inclined girl who is a distant niece of Fluvanna’s and a favorite of Hugh’s. She happily tells Fluvanna she has become en­ gaged to Jerry Purdue. Ellen fears that her father and mother, Gavin and Lizzie, will not approve the match. CHAPTER II—Continued “So then ?”“I’m going to throw a big din­ ner, have them all this Friday night. Suit you?" .Hugh hesitated. “You’d like it, wouldn’t you?” she challenged. “I’d like having them here of course, but I wish it were because you wanted them. Not a con­ cession to my feelings.” Dorrie turned her head to one side and looked at the willow tree.After a moment she said with slow sulkiness: “You’d.better take it the way I do iL”He watched her with puzzled pain, watched her until he saw the coldness melt from hfir face, and another emotion come over i'. She said In a faint voice, “You’re worth a dozen of me, Hugh.’’ He was relieved. "(That’s brought this on?” he inquired laughing. She shook her head! “Call it a mood.” "Forget it, Dorrie. You can be pretty sweet yourself]” He felt suddenly happy. She was diary with admissions of feeling. He never knew exactly how deep her feeling for him was. The occa­ sional glimpses into her mind, when she .grew introspective as to­ night, were rare and accordingly precious. The western light had entirely faded. The dusk ringed her around with magic. Her pale green dress shimmered like mopn- IighL A night-hawk wheeled rest­ lessly overhead, uttering a rauc­ ous cry. Hugh, whose passionate feeling for her had never dimmed, felt her enchantment heighten, sur­ round him with a mystical content- menL and yearning.His *.yes held hers. “You’re lovely,” he said on a breath. “Thank you,” she murmured, smiling. The telephone tinkled inside the house. “I’ll go,” said Dorrie, sliding off the chaise longue. She never walked briskly, but when she came back she moved with more animation than was her wont. "It’s the Whitneys," she an­nounced. “They want us to go out to Freeland Farms and-dances” - - Hugh gave a regretful look at the yard, bowered in bush and vine, at the moon, climbing now, a shimmering globe above the trees. "Sort of nice here,” he commented. She stood there, waiting for him to say more. The expression of her face was veiled, but he felt a vitality flow from her, a cur­rent of something indefinable. “Do you want to go?” “That’s for you to decide,” she answered almost coldly. ■ He took her attitude L r re­ proach. He stretched his arms lazily. “Tell them, we’ll go. Com­ing for us?” “Yes. Can you be realy In ten minutes?” He nodded. “But we won’t stay late, remember! I have a job to hold down—if Cun hasn’t.”She started for the house, then turned her head with her secret smile. “You always say that—‘we won’t stay late, remember’!” “But we always do!”She vanished in the rear door. The Whitneys. Dancing. At least it wasn’t bridge which had become so complicated lately with the new scoring and new systems which people' quoted so confusing­ ly. .Freeland Fams—always a crowd. The floor too small. But Dorrie wanted to go. . . . “Hugh.” “Coming.” He rose from his chair reluctantly. Cun Whitney was of medium height, florid, and with curly brown hair. He was cheerful, talkative, and had an amazing vitality. He was restless/liked to go places, be with people; he was fall of vision­ ary schemes for making money which he never followed through. He was an excellent salesman, suc­ ceeding through sheer charm of manner and enthusiasm, but had been out of work since the Novem­ ber before. He was thoughtful and kind to his friends, and when Hugh had been laid up with influenza the winter before, had sat up with him all one night.Joan was small, with an olive complexion, straight black hair which she dressed severely, and great smoky gray eyes with thick- black lashes. “Hurry up,” she called as Hugh and Dorrie came down the walk, “we’re simply bursting to tell you the news!” “What news?” asked Hugh. “Did the old man come through?” “Right the first time!” “Congratulations!” cried Hugh, climbing into the car. “Wonder­ful,” said Dorrie. “He has a job with the Crescent people and starts work the first of the month!” “You see how glad she is to be rid of me!” complained Cun. “Sick of having me underfoot around the house!” “You weren’t at home much! You.went down town every day,” flashed Joan. “Will you have to travel, Cun?” asked Dorrie. “More or less—several days a week. And they came to my fig­ ure!— which is important.”“We’ll look after Jonny for you when you’re away — take her around. Eh, Dorrie?”“Of course.” Joan’s elation gave a lilt to her quiet voice. “It’s the most glori­ous feeling! Almost worth the ag­ ony of suspense for eight months to experience it. Although I must say Cim was marvelous about it—al­ways cheerful.” “Always marvelous!” said Cun. “I was the one who was afraid- afraid of his-—” Cun, as he drove, looked back over his shoulder. “Go ahead and spill it. What were you afraid of? My sinking into bad habits?”“Oh, keep quiet.” Cun laughed and nodded. “You see, no confidence in me at all!— and from one who knows me best! Anyhow we’re here, and it’s a grand night and we’re all good fel- "kou’d Better Take It the Way I Do It.” lows! I felt like a celebration and told her to call you up. I knew Hugh would curse. But a little night-life is good for you, you old stick-in-the-mud!” “We’re not to be out late!” called Dorrie, mockingly. “Husband’s or­ ders! Just before we started!” They found a table near an open window at the Freeland Farms, an old country mansion which had been turned into a road house. The space for dancing was limit­ ed, and waiters zigzagged' and re­treated with their laden trays, to avoid the swaying couples. It was not so hot as Hugh had expected; a breeze came in from the west; the room had good ventilation, ex­tending up two stories with win­ dows near Uie roof. Hugh saw Ellen Pendleton across the room seated at a table with Jerry Purdue. The drama of their preoccupation with each other drifted through the noise and cig­arette smoke. Ellen's face was flushed, her eyes were luminous as she toyed with her food and list­ened to Jerry propound some the­ ory. Isolation enfolded them in the midst of the crowd.He touched Dorrie’s arm. "Se* Ellen with young Purdue?”She smiled and nodded. "He looks the sort she’d fall for, lean and dark—with a way!” She ex­plained to the others, “Hugh’s fa­ vorite cousin with her young man.” “A cousin?” said Cun. “Alibi?” Joan - fanned herself with the menu. “Don’t you know Hugh’s related to all the Pendletons? That’s Gavin’s daughter, Ellen.” ' “I vow the whole town’s a cousin to Hugh,” said Dorrie languidly. “Hard to have any personal con- versation. I never dare express ,an opinion of anyone I -meet foi fear of insulting a connection. El- Ien is third or fourth in degree— what is it, Hugh?” “About that. Great-grandfathers were brothers.” “Still they call it Cousin! Shs studied art for a couple of years Paints very well they say.” .

That ambitious young company Grand National that went over big with “Great Guy,” in which they brought the too-long-absent Jimmy Cagney back to the screen, is going to star her in a musical. And Vic­ tor Schertzinger, no less, who piloted Grace Moore to screen fame, is go­ ing to direct Miss Jepson. — ■*— Movie officials are so jittery about having Fred Astaire and Ginger R og e rs careen around on roller skates for their next picture “Stepping Toes,” they have taken out one quar­ ter of a million dol­ lars in su ra n c e against production delays due to acci­dents. They know how dangerous it is to give Astaire a new toy like that. He’s likely to skate right up walls. So they are protecting themselves from any spur-of-the-moment antics he may indulge In.—•*— Lull Desti is not going to be like other foreign film stars who come to Hollywood to make pictures. Usu­ ally the newcomers spend about six days In New York, seeing noth­ing of our country but night chibs and theaters, photographers and in­ terviewers, before they rush to Ho- lywood by airplane or fastest train. Miss Desti, on her arrival from England, persuaded Paramount of­ ficials to let her drive across country in leisurely fashion so that she could really get acquainted with us be­fore starting work In our studios. She won’t even hazard a guess about how long it will take, her, because she knows that, she will never be able to resist going off her careful­ly • marked route to explore side roads. —■fi­ll good wishes make good pic­ tures, “Steel Highway” will be one of the best of the year. It was rushed into production in order to keep Ann Nagel so busy that she could not brood over the tragic death of her husband, Ross Alexander. In th is picture she plays a leading role for the first time. Another good reason why everyone is pulling for the suc­ cess of this picture is that a new­comer is playing opposite her. And the newcomer is none other than William Hopper, son of Hedda Hop­ per. — •* — Young players in Hollywood have every reason to be grateful to Hedda Hopper, and they are. They flock to her for advice on clothes and for help in studying their lines. Young brides who grow panicky about playing hostess at their first big party (and who doesn’t) con­sult her about refreshments and decorations, how many extra serv­ ants to get in, what entertainment to offer and all that. And then they usually insist that she be the first guest to arrive, the last to go. —* — A few years ago, every visitor to New York made a bee-line for the Hippodrome, just as nowadays the Radio . City Music Hall is number one on any list of sights to be seen. Buddy de Bylva has been brooding lately over all the young folks who grew up too late to see one of the thrilling, dazzling Hippodrome shows, and has decided that some­thing must be done about it. So, he is going to make a picture called “Hippodrome” for UniversaL The amiable lunacies of the Burns and Allen pictures and radio pro­gram go right on in their more private life.

Representative Brewster Grant, of Davie, voted against the measure. The vote was 58 against to 47 for the bill. The Winston- Salem Journal came near fainting when Mr. Roosevelt was given this’ mighty swat.

A new company has purchased this plant, and hope to be able to open about the first of March. It is said that the factory will work about sixty men when it resumes work, and more will be added later on The directors of the Bank of Davie made a wise selection when they elected Knox Johnstone, prom­ inent young business man of Mocks ville, as president of this prosperous and growing banking house, which was organized 36 years ago. Mr. Johnstone has many friends throughont Davie and adjoining counties, who feel sure that the bank will prosper and expand under his wise leadership. Dr. S. A.

The 25,000,000th Ford car rolled off the Ford Bonge Plant pro­ duction line on January 18, 1937. 25 million cars since 1903 . . . more than one-third of all the cars ever built... enough cars to transport the entire population of the United States. The figures represent a remarkable contribution to the social welfare, the industrial stability and the general progress of our country. People respect Ford efficiency. They know Ford nses fine materials, the best workmanship at good wages, the most exact precision measurements. They know these things are passed along to purchasers in the form of extra value. Naturally, they like to do business with such a company. That is the only reason it has been required to produce 25 million cars. Naturally, too, they expect more of a Ford car, more this year than last year—more each year than the year before. They have every right to. The experience gained in building 25,000,000 cars en­ ables Ford to produce today a really superb motor car at a really low price —with the Beauty, Comfort, Safety and Performance of much more ex­ pensive cars. , The 1937 Ford V-8 combines ad­ vanced design, all-steel construction, extra body room, and brilliant brakes with a choice of two V-type 8-cylin­ der engines—the most modem type of power-plant on land, sea, or In the air. The 85-horsepower engine provides top performance with unusually good economy for its high power. The 60-horsepower engine gives good performance with the greatest gasoline mileage ever built into a Ford car—and wears the lowest Ford price tag in years. People expect more of a Ford car because it’s a Ford—and they get more, for the same reason. It is nndeniaUy the quality car In the low-price field.

I News Review of Current Events the World Over President Rtfosevelt in lhangnral Address Pledges Aid for Forty Million Under-Privileged—Secretary Per­ kins Tries to Break Motor Stoike Deadlock. B y EDWARD W. PICKARD O Wcttcca NewspaperTfafaa. I OFTY Ideals, beautifully worded fflid eloquently voiced. That President Koosevelt seems to be a fair description of the second inaugural address of Franklin D elano Roosevelt. Standing bareheaded on the capitol portico in a cold, pelting rain, he took the oath of office administered by black robed C hief Ju stic e Hughes, and then, in ringing words carried by radio to the ends of the earth, he pledged his administration to carry on its fight for the social security and material prosperity and happiness of the entire people of the United States. In effect, he promised that the federal govern­ ment would bring about a better life for one-third of the nation now underprivileged, and that the pro­gram of planned economy would be continued. For forty millions who are not getting their share of the nation’s material benefits the government will provide homes, food, clothing, education, recreation and increased incomes.The President’s listeners inter­ preted some of his phrases as a challenge to the Supreme court, as when he said: “Nearly all of us recognize that as intricacies of human relation­ ships increase, so power to govern them also must increase—power to stop evil; power to do good. The essential democracy of our nation and the safety of our people depend not upon the absence of power but upon lodging it with those whom the people can change or continue at stated intervals through an hon­ est and free system of elections. The constitution of 1787 did not make our democracy impotent. “In fact, in these, last four years, we have made the exercise of all power more democratic; for we have begun to bring private auto­ cratic powers into their proper sub­ ordination to the public's govern­ment. The legend that they were invincible—above and beyond the processes of democracy—has been shattered. They have been chal­ lenged and beaten.” Before the inauguration cere­monies, Mr. Roosevelt and mem­ bers of his family attended a special service in St. John’s Episcopal church. After delivering his address the President reviewed the military parade from a cupola built in front of the White House. In addition to the soldiers, sailors and marines, samples of the Civilian Conserva­ tion corps and of the National Youth administration were in the line, as were the governors of 46 states with their staffs. QECRETARY OF LABOR FRAN- O CES PERKINS herself undertook the difficult task of breaking the renewed deadlock in the General Motors strike, but at this writing she had not made much progress. Governor Murphy of Michi­ gan, who went to ■Washington for the in a u g u ra tio n , helped her, arrang­ing separate meet­ ings with John L.Lewis, C. I. O. lead­ er, and President Sloan of the motor corporation. But his efforts to bring these two gentle­ men together seemed, futile. Lew­ is summoned Homer Martin, head of the striking union, and John Brophy, C. I. O. lieutenant, from Detroit and conferred with them on “strategy”. AU the union lead­ ers appeared supremely confident, and Lewis insisted the demand that the union be recognized as the sole bargaining agency must be concert­ ed if there were to be any strike settlement negotiations. Secretary Perkins, after talking with both sides, went directly to the White House. She said she was “keeping the President informed” ef developments. The belief was general that it would be necessary to invoke the personal aid of Mr. Roosevelt to bring about a peace­ ful settlement. Lewis brought about the tempo­ rary suspension of negotiations by. a statement he gave the press. With brutal frankness he said: “We have advised- the secretary of labor that the ‘economic royal­ ists’—and the du Ponts and Mr. Sloan, are among them—used their, money to try to drive Mr. Roose­ velt out ef the White House. “Labor rallied to the President’s support when they attacked him. “These same economic royalists now have their fangs in labor, and labor now expects the government to support labor in its legal and logi­ cal objectives.” This was too much for Sloan, who started for home with the remark: “We find it useless to attempt any further negotiations in Washington. Secretary Perkins Any time the President sends far us we’U be there."Lewis’ position was strengthened by the settlement of the Pittsburgh Plate Glass company strike and in­ creased prospects that Libbey- Owens-Fond glass workers would return to their jdbs. His strategy has been to curtaU General Motors production, and interfere 'with its principal competitors, Ford and Chrysler, as Uttle as possible. Re­ sumption of production by glass manufacturers would permit Ford and Chrysler to produce at full speed while sit-down strikers keep General Motors plants inoperative. f* ONGRESS did not wait for the ^ inauguration to rush through the biU asked by the President ex­ tending for two and one-half years his power to control the two billion dollar stabilization fund and to devalue the doUar. Senator Van- denberg and Representative Snell, minority leaders, made futile ef­ forts to amend the measure so that it would caU on the secretary of the treasury to submit to congress a complete audit and report upon the operations of the fund after the expiration date in 1939. The fund originated three years ago .at the time of the 40 per cent debasement of the dollar. Gold holdings of private individuals, banks and the reserve banks com­ mandeered by the Treasury, were “revalued”. Each ounce of gold formerly valued officially at $20.67 an ounce was arbitrarily raised to $35 an ounce. This resulted in a two billion, 800 million dollar "profit" for the Treasury. The odd 800 millions was imme­ diately diverted to the Treasury’s general account to cover federal expenditures. Two billions were al­ located for use as a "stabiliza­tion” fund. New legislation was passed authorizing the secretary of the treasury to use the stabiliza­ tion fund to manipulate the value of the dollar in foreign exchange transactions, to purchase silver and gold and to rig the quotations on United States government securities in the market. T"\ ISPATCHES from Vatican city ■*-' said the condition of Pope Pius XI was steadily growing worse. He was suffering excruciating pain, especially in the right leg. The pon­tiff, however, insist­ ed on conducting some of the business of his office, telling Archbishop Castigli- oni he was deter­ mined to work as long as breath re­ mained in his body. The pope was greatly distressed to „ _.hear of the death of "°Pe ”1US Bishop M. J.

T tHE conflict between fascism A and communism in the Old World grows more intense day by day, and the German Nazi leaders uitist every nation must espouse one side or the other. Air Minister Goering declares England especially should align herself with Germany and Italy, but Foreign Minister Eden in a speech before parliament virtually handed back to Germany the question of Europe’s fate. “We cannot cure the world by pacts or treaties,” said he, “or by political creeds, no matter what they be.” He demanded to know whether Ger­ many intended to use the “mani­ fold gifts of her people to restore confidence to a world sick of an­ tagonism,” or “to the sharpening of international antagonism and a pol­icy of even greater economic isola­tion.” German' officials called Eden’s speech “untimely;’’ and Ulrich von Hassel, German ambassador to Italy, speaking in Cologne, described the “axis of Rome-Berlin” as a “central pivot around which the whole of Europe revolves.” “Germany and Italy," he said, “are destined to fight the false doc­trines of the east (Russia) and sur­ mount western capitalism. Germany and Italy are neither east nor west, but the center, and Europe will be able to keep in harmony only if they remain the strong central ax­is.” It was said in Bwlin that a mixed German-Japanese commission has been named to cany out provisions of' the Berlin-Tokio anti-communist agreement of last November. Over in Japan Foreign Minister Hachiro Arita opened the parlia­ ment with a speech in which he declared communism was to blame for the political troubles of the world. He defended -the German-Japanese pact as directed only against com­ munism and not intended to foment dispute with world powers.

SANTA MONICA, CALIF.— This time last year we were all dedicating ourselves to a crusading campaign to make 1936 a safer year for motorists. We were going to cut down the volume of traffic disasters, going to reduce the appalling mortality toll which had marked the pre­ceding year.So what? Well, here’s what The end of 1936 showed an all - time top for deaths on the public highways— roughly 37,450, or approximately 450 more than in 1935.So now we’ll pious­ ly resolve, all over again, to do something about this hideous destroyer which kills by the thousands and maims by the hun­dreds of thousands and makes our fatalities and casualties in the world war seem, by comparison, puny. And what will come of the re­newed agitation? The National Safety Council will wage a gallant, hopeless fight, various local organi­ zations and civic bodies will do what they can, newspapers will rail and statesmen will deplore—and the ghastly record of slaughter will keep right on mounting....

Washington.—Two messages to congress by the President have __ c re a te d moreMessages than the usual ex- Caose S tir citement attend­ ant upon such things- as the new session has set­tled down to its annual considera­ tion of public affairs. In each of these were Presidential declara­ tions that are beginning to rever­ berate and that means they are highly controversial. In Mr. Roosevelt’s annual mes­sage “on the state of the union,” he took occasion to tell congress how much he appreciated its "co­ operation” with him. He followed that bit of back patting with prob­ ably the boldest statement he has made since entering the White House four years ago for the first term. He called upon the Supreme Court of the United States, in a roundabout way to “co-operate” with the other two branches of the government, the legislative and ex­ ecutive. Hie other wave of excitement, not to say disturbance, was caused by the President’s special message asking congress for a wholesale re­ organization of the executive de­ partments and agencies—calling this proposal a plan for moderniz­ ing the government. One can circulate through the cor­ridors and offices of the Capitol and office buildings and hear mut- terings aplenty and even a consid­ erable bit of outspoken criticism by senators and representatives of the two circumstances I have men­ tioned. There are many members of the legislative branch who are entertaining a feeling that the de­ mand for Supreme court co-opera­tion was equivalent to carrying the ball out of bounds. But that part of the Presidential pronouncement is not likely, in the end, to produce the battle on the floor of the senate or house that will result from some phases of bis “modernizing” pro­ gram. The fact is that our national gov­ ernment has become a structure, insofar as the executive agencies are concerned, that sprawls out like an octopus. About 75 per cent of these units and agencies are prod­ucts of the New Deal recovery program; they work at cross pur­ poses; they move in their own sphere and make their own poli­ cies with almost no direction from the White House. Certainly, the time is ripe to clean up that mess. Yet, in cleaning up these condi­ tions, in reorganizing, it is undoubt­ edly the consensus of those charged with responsibility for the job that common sense must be used and discretion employed or else untold damage will be done to the govern­ ment and to the whole economic structure of the naton, including the taxpayers. * * * The Presidential reorganization program was sweeping in charac- _ . ter and that is the K e o rg a n iza tto n reason why it has P ro g ra m run into obstacles. For example, the plan calls for placing the interstate commerce commission, the general accounting office, the federal trade commission. and the civil service commission largely inside of old- established departments over which cabinet officers preside. Now, a cabinet officer is .and always has been in the past a political ap­ pointee, an individual who had been active in promotion of a party cam­ paign and usually one who has made important contributions of money to his .party’s campaign fund. So, it becomes plainly evi­ dent, I believe, that to place such agencies as those I have named in regular departments, is to place them completely under political domination. Where it is good, therefore, to place strictly administrative agen­ cies under cabinet control, it be­ comes equally dangerous to place under political domination such quasi-judicial agencies' as the ICC and the general accounting office. Tliere can be no doubt of that fact. That is the crux of the disturb­ance among the legislators trader the reorganization proposal. Those of us who have had long experience as writers and observ­ ers in Washington have seen evi­ dence in almost every adminis­ tration of attempts of politicians to get their fingers into the pie of rail­road rate making. They have adopt­ ed all sorts of tricks; they have used subterfuges and they have em­ ployed strong political pressure time after ,time to gain control of railroad rate making. Through all of these years since the ICC was established, there has always been enough sane minds in congress who, with White House backing, could resist this politicaLjnove. Natur­ ally,-therefore,.,it is a> matter of some question.why President Roose­velt should attempt to toss the in­ terstate commerce' commission and its rate making power straight in­ to the laps of the politicians. Of course, the Presidential mes­sage on this point appears on its face to provide against the end that I have .mentioned but old timers in congress point out how this wedge, driven only a little further, will bring about political domination of the ICC.• * • It is hardly necessary here to set down all of the potential dangers _ that can emanateP o te n tia l from political con- D angera trol of such a vast structure as the railroads of the United States. It is unlimited in its possibilities. Dan­ gers are inherent in any program of that kind with which the politi­ cians are identified and it appears to be a circumstance in which con­ gress, if it is going to serve the people properly, should call a halt. As to the general accounting of­ fice and the plant to include it in the Treasury again under the rule of an auditor general, the reorgani­zation scheme simply will set con­ trol of public expenditures bade a quarter of a century. One of the earlier Presidents made no effort to conceal the use that could be made of the auditing unit of the gov­ernment when he said, on an occa­ sion where the chief auditor ruled an expenditure illegal, that if it were not possible to change the ruling under the law, it still was possible to change the chief auditor. I am not making a charge that the present administration desires to spend congressional appropria­ tions illegally; but one cannot dodge the conversations that are taking place around the Capitol in which legislators recall how President Roosevelt criticized John R. Mc Carl when he was comptroller general for a decision that prevented use of public money in a manner de­ sired by the President. To sum up this particular phase of the situ­ ation, one hardly need to say more than that if the auditor general is a subordinate of the Secretary of the Treasury, he is likely to take orders from the Secretary of the Treasury, whoever that Secretary may be. And, since the Secretary of the Treasury is an appointee of the President and serves only at the President’s pleasure, in my mind a link is established where-, by the White House again will con­trol determination of legality and illegality of expenditures. Congress created the general ac­ counting office in order that it would have an agency independent of the Chief Executive and the executive departments to keep tab on how those executive agencies expend­ed the money which congress ap­ propriated. That was the reason why the office of comptroller gener­al was made to carry a fifteen- year appointment with removal only for malfeasance or misfeasance. Now it is proposed to tear down that structure and bring the whole auditing organization under a cab­inet officer. But there is another phase to be considered. It has been my good fortune to be in Washington dur­ ing the entire life of the general accounting office as well as for sev­ eral years before. Of my own knowl­ edge, I can say that the general accounting office has recovered mil­lions of dollars of illegally disbursed funds as well as prevented illegal disbursement Of other millions. * * * There seems to be more support for inclusion of the civil service „ .commission in the C iv il form of a civil S e rv ic e service adminis­trator under an executive department than there is support for breaking up of the fed- eral trade commission as the Presi­ dent proposed. Neither of these agencies has such an important bearing on the public as a whole as do the other two I have dis­ cussed. The plan to make the civil service administration subject to cabinet' control was softened con­ siderably by the President by inclu­sion of a proposal to make all gov­ ernment employes below policy­ making grades subject to civil serv­ice laws. That is a big step for­ward, provided it is not a ruse to permit packing the lists with ad-' herents of one political party or the other, whichever may be in power.The federal trade commission, like the interstate com m erce com-' mission, is a quasi-judicial body. There has been objection to its pres­ ent setup as prosecutor, judge and jury but many legislators believe this can be corrected without emas­ culating the agency and destroy­ ing its .identity by putting it into an executive department. It ought to be free and independent end ought not to. haver„any politician in a cabinet chair tolling it what to do when it seeks to make- business be honestC WeiWni Newspaper Uataa. CT Af. v , > Mn.

UNCOMMON AMERICANS By Elmo C Western Scott W atson "eOXIw "Mother of Thanksgiving’* O F COURSE, we ail know we owe the observance o> Thanks­giving to the Pilgrun forefathers. But if it hadn’t been for the persist­ ence ot a woman editor the chances are that it would stiil be only a New England festival instead of a na­ tionwide holiday celebrated In all states on the last Thursda> in No­ vember. Sara Josepha Hale was her name and she was the editor of Godey’s Lady’s Book, the most popular woman’s magazine of the Nineteenth century. She was born in New Hampshire in 1788, and, like all New England­ ers, the celebration of Thanks­giving, even though its observance was not a regular event, was very dear to her. As early as 1827 she began advocating that “Thanksgiv­ ing, like the Fourth of July, should be considered a national festival and observed by all our people.” But it was not until 1846 that she began her campaign through the columns of Godey’s Lady’s Book, of which she became editor in 1828. Early each'spring she began writ­ ing letters to governors of ali states and territories asking their assist­ ance in making the last Thursday in November, which had been Wash­ington’s choice for the firs': Thanks­ giving Day, set aside by Presiden­ tial proclamation. By 1849 most of these commonwealths were keeping individual festivals but no attempt was made to have the date uni­ form. So Mrs. Hale started on the Presidents. She wrote to Fillmore, Pierce and Buchanan again and again. But all of them ignored her, for they felt that such “feminine meddling in public affairs” should be frowned upon. However, in 1863, as the re­ sult of a letter which she wrote to President Lincoln, ht issued the first national Thanksgiving day proclamation since Washington’s day. Mrs. Hale had won her battle after 17 years’ effort. With the precedent thur established other Presidents, as well as governors of states,, have never deviated from the custom which Lincoln thus es­ tablished. Being thus the “Mother of Thanksgiving” was not, • hcwever, Mrs. Hale’s only claim to distinc­tion. She was the author of that fa­ mous poem, “Mary Had a Little Lamb”; she was the first tc advo­ cate women teachers in public schools; she started the first day nursery; she founded the first so­ciety for the advancement of wom­ en’s wages, and l.er demands that housekeeping be given the dignity of a profession put the term “do­ mestic science” in our language. Prisoner of War TN THE year 17S8 there was born * to an English family, then liv­ing in Ireland, a jon who was to bear the name of John Whistler. Before he became oi age young John ran away from home and en­listed in the British army In 1777 he was sent to America with troops who were to serve under General Burgoyne and when “Gentleman Johnny’s” expedition ended in dis­ aster at Saratoga, young John Whistler was a prisoner of war.Before the end of the Revolution ho was sent back to Engau as an exchanged prisoner and soon after­wards he was discharged from the army. Then he fell in love with the daughter of one of his father’s friends, eloped with her, came to America a second time and settled down at Hagerstown, Md. But be could not be content with civilian life for long. So in 1701 this soldier who had worn the scarlet uniform of Old England put on the nonde­ script uniform of a lieutenant adju­tant in the levies which made up a part of the army of the new repub­lic. * From that time oh he served con­ tinuously on the Northwestern fron­ tier under St. Clair, Wayne and the others who were campaigning against the hostile Indians. By 1797 he had won a captaincy and in 1803 he was stationed at Detroit. Then orders were given to build a fort at the foot of Lake Michigan and establish a garrison there with Whistler as commandiHnt. Accord­ingly he built the post which was named Fort Dearborn and thus he became the “father of Chicago.” For nine years Whistler ruled at Fort Dearborn and then he was or­ dered back to Detroit. At the out­ break of the War o f 1812 he was serving there on the staff of General Hull and when that flustered offi­cer, without attempting resistance, surrendered his post to the British army which swopped down upon him, Whistler again became a pris­ oner of war. - ^ So his was the unique distinction of having been a British officer who surrendered to a victorious Ameri­ can army and then an American officer who surrendered to a vic­ torious British army. That alone would make, him an “uncommon- American” even if he hadr't been the “Father .of Chicago” end the man whose grandson becam< one of the greatest of all American artists —James Abbott McNeill Whistler. Printed Lace and Other New Prints By CHERIE NICHOLAS CEEMS as if every type of mate- rial ever known has gone into print. The latest entrant into the printed realm is lace., Printed laces are the big news in the lacy story for the coming season. Granted that prints for resort wear and for spring are more lovely each year, but never have they risen to greater heights of glamor then when col­orfully printed on sheer Chantilly lace which brings the pattern out color-gloriously.The evening gown in the picture is fashioned of printed Chantilly lace, the patterning done in green and shades of yellow and orange. Black ribbons make the shoulder straps and belt of this handsome gown. And if you want to wear printed lace in daytime let it be a blouse of printed lace worn with your new spring bolero suit—a word to Uie wise is sufficient. The advance arrival of new prints would indicate that the vogue for the spring and summer of 1937 prom­ises to exceed all previous records. In the new showings silk prints fair­ly hold one spellbound with their daring, their unusualness and their artful art both as to color and de­sign. The same may be said of the grand and glorious linens, also pique prints whose spectacular fling S t color is simply breathtaking. See the youthful contrast jack- et-and-skirt costume centered in the group illustrated. An ensemble like this is an especially smart cruise fashion for deck-pacing or for going ashore at points enroute. It is fashioned of cloque pique combin­ing print and plain. The fabric is one of the new pre-shrunk cottons so ideal to wear in warm climates where frequent tubbing is neces­ sary. The fact that prints are going strong in sunny resort and among cruise-faring fashionables in no way implies that midseason stay-at- homes' are being left printless. On the contrary the prints that are peeping from beneath winter coats a;e as refreshing a sight as could possibly greet winter-weary eyes. The colors are entrancing and the p a tte rn in g s are unmistakably “new.'? The fact that the motifs are widely spaced makes for an absolutely “different” look. As a tonic that acts instantaneously we recommend a frock forthwith and sans delay made of one of the ra­diantly colorful new prints. An interesting characteristic of early arriving modes is that the em­ phasis is placed on the smartness and novelty of the print which fash­ ions the dress rather than on its making. In fact the new print frocks are styled most simply the more to show off to advantage the beauty of their material which thrills with unique designs and dramatic color­ ings. The print fashioning the daytime gown shown in the foreground of the group illustrated makes color-play its big feature. Green and red on a brown ground is the color scheme. The belt is of brown suede. The large jewelled clasp (huge ones are worn this season) at the neckline further emphasizes the idea of strik­ ing color. Speaking of the new spring prints in general they are newest looking when the florals are large and dis­ tinctive and set far apart. Just now it is the dark grounds that ap­ peal or that which is ultra chic, the background in a vivid color. Pais­ ley patterns and bold stripes are especially smart. €> Western Newspaper Union. BEIGE LACE By GHEBlE NICHOLAS \ Beige is high fashion again as in fact are all shades that suggest cin­ namon and yellowish and delicate brownish tints;- These colors are especially effective in lace and have the added advantage of practical­ity and wearability. The stunning lace dress pictured is tailored of beige lace. It has a nicety of de­ tail that Js recognized at a glance.

LACE HEADDRESSES SMART FOR SPRING By CHERIE NICHOLAS Fashion has always decreed that you shall be smart—and this year that you shall be pretty as well. This combination is entirely possi­ ble when you have seen yourself in the all-lace hats which are becom­ ing more and more popular for din­ ing out and the theater. One, a Schiaparelli model, is helmet like, with a conic crown. The lace is fixed on wire and gives the Span­ish touch, which of course is the thing this season. If you prefer to get your Spanish effect in another way, don’t forget the mantilla. It can do wonders towards conveying that air of mys­ tery and romance. And you can make it yourself, fashioning it in your own way. Some are made'1 of squares of Chantilly; others have lace borders around net. We noted particularly one of plain net, with a wide border of lace. They are, in­ cidentally, equally attractive when worn as scarves or shawls, and even folded in a triangle and tied ascot-fashion in front. Black and White Popular for Formal Evening Wear Black and white have established themselves as the height of for­ mality for evening wear. Used to­ gether, they are always the more effective. Seen recently in one of the best New York fashion ateliers was a formal gown of white lace, pailletted all over with rhinestones,^ and over it was worn a charming, hiplength jacket of black net. Fit­ ted snugly at the waistline, and with straight sleeves slightly puffed at the shoulder, it flared out in a full peplum below the waist. The black net jacket suggested it­self as an admirable light wrap to be worn with all evening dresses. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY!CHOOL Lesson Br REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQtnST9 Dean of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.C Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for February 7 JESUS TOE LIGHT OF THE WORLD LESSON TEXT—John 8:12. 31. 32: 9:1-11. GOLDEN TEXT—I am the light ot th« world: he that followeth me shall not walk In darkness, but shall have the light ot life. PRIMABY TOPIC—When Jesus Passed By. JUNIOR TOPIC—When Jesus Passed By.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— How Jesus Is the Light ot the World. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— Walking In the Light WiUi Jesus. “The Light of the World Is Jesus!” Who does not remember with what delight we as children sang “Come to the light, ’tis shining for thee . . . The Light of the world is Jesus.” How precious was the truth that thus flooded our souls. Jesus was the light, and just as the sunlight shed its glory on an awak­ ening world at dawn, so he shed abroad the light of God in the hearts of men. The writer of these les­ sons pens these words with the prayer that as this portion of God’s Holy Word is studied and taught, the light may break forth on many a soul caught in the bewilderment of this dark world. ..Our study centers around three simple woris fraught with beauty and rich in meaning. I. Light (John 8:12). The text says, “Then Spake Jesus.” When? Just after he had silenced the hypocritical accusers of a woman taken in sin, and had spoken the word of peace to her troubled soul. She was to “go and sin no more” because she had met him who is the “Light of the World.” They that follow him “shall not walk in darkness” ; they are the children of light, they have the very light of life. D. Freedom (w. 31, 32). Free! Four letters, but what depth of meanlngl Chahis have fall­ en off, prison doors are open. The one who was bound is free. But here we are concerned with an even more important liberty, the freedom of the soul. Many there are who boast of their independence but who are naught but slaves. Jesus said, “Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin” (John 8:34), not its master.How shall they be freed? Note three things in these verses. (I) A condition, “If ye continue in my word.” This means not only a pro­fession of faith but a daily appropri­ ation and realization of 'his truth in life. (2) A promise, “Ye shall know the truth.” The philosophies of men profess to be a seeking after truth but how few there are who look to the one place where it can be found —in Jesus Christ.. (3) A result, “the truth shall make you free.” Truth always sets free. Men are enslaved because, as in some for­ eign lands, they have not had the opportunity to learn the truth (we have failed to send it) or because they have rejected it.in . Vision (John 9:1-11). This is one of the most instructive passages in Scripture. A mari'bom blind is seen by Jesus. His dis­ ciples note his intent snd begin to theorize on a theological question. They had learned so little of the compassionate spirit of Jesus that they saw in this blighted life only an illustration of a theological the­ ory. MayGodhelpusthatwemay never be so blind. Jesus goes at once to work. He was in the world to do the works of God. He and the Father always work. Let us follow his blessed example, “The King’s business re­quires haste." List us work “while it is day, the night cometh when no man. can work.” By a loving and gracious act, Jesus stirs in the heart of the man that faith which causes him to go, to wash, and, glory to God, he sees!Such a personal experience of the divine power of the Son of God leaves, no doubt in the man's mind that the one who caused him to see “is a prophet.” AU of a man's doubts concerning the deity of Jesus Christ disappear when he becomes his Saviour. Read the remainder of the chap­ ter and note how this man’s faith is victorious in the face of trials, per­ secution, and even of excommuni­cation; for outside the temple he met Jesus and takes him as his Lord. As Dr. Scroggie puts it, “His excommunication was a promotion. He went from the synagogue to the Saviour.” Thinking of Self OnlyShow me the man who would go to heaven alone, and I will show you one who will never be admitted there.—Feltham.

Beware of HypocrisyThere is nothing against which our Lord warns us so terribly as hypocrisy. Going to the Party? W HERE is the party? At Mrs. Smith’s on Wsdnut street and it looks awfully much as though the principals were caught by the candid' camera. Luckily, how­ever, they’re perfectly groomed for their parts: Introducing Janet. Janet in her jumper (Pattern 1996) is asking Mother Which glassware to use. Her plaid blouse in taffeta makes her feel very dressed up. Mother chose, this style because the many possibili­ ties for .change make it a ward­ robe rather than a dress and she knew it would be easy-to-make. Your own little girl may have this same ensemble in sizes 6 , 8, 10, 12, and 14 years. Size 8 re­quires 1% yards of 39 inch ma­ terial for the jumper and yards for the blouse. Mother, the Hostess. Mother is the perfect hostess, calm and assured, because she knows her all-occasion frock with its sprightly crisp apron (Pattern 1220) is becoming and appropri­ ate. For house wear she made up this model in print. She is wearing here the crepe version and knows that it will be delight­ ful for later on in cool black and white. It comes in sizes 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, and 46. The dress and apron in size 36 require 514 yards of 39 inch material. Ilie apron alone requires 1% yards. And the Gnest. The guest just arriving is wear­ ing her trigest Sew-Your-Own. She likes it because the puffed shoulders and swing skirt make her hips look smaller. The collar is young and the sleeves stylish. This frock is especially chic in silk crepe alpaca or one of the lovely new prints. Foryour own daytime distinction, then, why not make up Pattern 1205? It is avail­ able in sizes 14, 16, 18, and 20 (32 to 42 bust). Size 16 requires 4%yardsof 39 inch material. One ball of yam required for trim­ ming as pictured. New Pattern Book.

ALREADY DISSOLVED* Calotabs Help Nature To Throw Off a Cold MillionshavefoundinCalotabsa most valuable aid in the treatment of colds. They take one or two tab­lets the first night and repeat the third or fourth night if needed.How do Calotabs help Nature throw off a cold? First, Calotabs are one of the most thorough and dependable of all intestinal elimi- nants, thus cleansing the intestinal tract of the germ-laden mucus and Second, Calotabs are diu­retic to the kidneys, promoting the elimination of cold poisons from the blood. Thus Cdotabs serve the double purpose of a purgative and diuretic, both of which are needed in the treatment of colds. Calotabs are quite economical; only twenty-five cents for the fam­ily package, ten cents for the trial package. (A(Adv.) Good as Well Why is “human nature" always interpreted as bad human nature?

Nations of World Allot Year 1939 To New York Fair World Exposition Already Growing Up; Seeks Active Participation of State NEW YORK, (Special).—The New York World’s Pair, in which every state In the nation must inevitably take small or prominent part, is out of its infancy.Preparatory construction goes on night and-day at the Flushing Meadow Site of 1216% acres at the geographical cen- tre of New York City. A steady flow of activities and announcements emanates from the Fair Corporation headquarters on four floors of the Empire State build* IngvJudging from nil of these, the Fair is a luaty, growing institution that will reach full maturity—no question about it—by the scheduled opening day, April 30, 1939.The task of grading the site Is about half completed. Battalions of men with trucks have already moved over 3,000,* 000 cubic yards of dry fill in the process of turning the waste marsh landt of the Flushing River basin into park ground. Other battalions are scooping out "mead­ow mat” for use «s fertile top soil for the made lands, and in so doing excavate the beds for the two large lagoons fea­tured in plans for the Fair.The first of the 300 structures which, according to estimates, will house the 1939 Fair, has been completed and is read: for occupancy. This is the head­quarters building for the field forces of today and the employment department : of the exposition period.Scheduled for early in the new year \ is the start of actual construction of the I $900,000 Administration building. The de* I signs for this structure, let under ar- I chitectural contract a few weeks ago, are• nearing the day of their approval in the Corporation's offices. Upon completion of this building, late in August. 1937. the Fair headquarters, bag, baggage and sales offices, moves to the exposition site.4cThe most splendid and significant edi*; flee projected for the 1939 international exposition,” the Theme building, as de­ scribed at Fair headquarters, is also well along in its contractual period. The esti­mated cost of this great building for the 4cThematic Centre” of the exposition is set at $1,200,009. The preliminary designs are to be finished in about eight weeks I and the final plans submitted within four• weeks thereafter. Construction is sched- 1 uled to start immediately the designs j are completed.From this Theme centre will radiate- I all that is to be the 1939 Fair as con* ! ceived by its founders and rendered into concrete terminology and model by tbt Fair's Board of Design."Our job from now on is to give phyt» leal.expression to the plan and themt of the Fair as announced and as set domi on paper in our headquarters,** sajB Grover. Whalen, President of the Fair Corporation..'wSthjfting next April I. we *00 plete the design of one major building every ten days for - a period of seven months. In all. we expect to design no less than 30 major buildings to house the exhibits from every part of the world. Some 300 structures, in all, are: planned for the Flushing Meadow site, within a few minutes' ride from Manhattan.” Without solicitation on the part of the Fair, more than 250 American business house* and institutions have begun pre* liminary conversations regarding their participation and are already planning exhibits. Five of the great nations of the world have already assured the Corpora­tion that they would erect their own buildings, while no less than 32 other na* tions have informally indicated their desire to participate. And then, on top of all this display of keen interest, comes the announcement that the International Convention Bu­reau. meeting in Paris, has allocated the year 1939' to the New York Fair. Tliis means that the New York Fair has ex­clusive ranking as the “one international exposition” of 1939, and assures it of the active support of the 21 nations signinr the agreement.President Roosevelt has just extended official invitation to the nations of the world. Governor Herbert H. Lehman, of the host State of New York, has extend­ ed invitation to the governors and resi­dents of 47 states. Grover Whalen, like­wise, has invited the governors in a let­ter pointing out that “the commercial consequences of the New York World's Fair are so great and important that they alone would justify the active participa­tion of every state.”Fair Commissioners are already In South America and Europe. Still others are on their way to the Far East and other foreign shores. Major Dennis EL Nolan, retired, as head of the Depart­ment of Foreign, State and Municipal Participation, will himself make repre* ‘ sentation to the governors and legisla­ tures of the various states.Meanwhile, under the direction of Har­vey D. Gibson, President of the Manu­ facturers Trust Company, and Richard Whitney, former president of the New York Stock Exchange, the prominent fig­ures in the financial capital conducted a 28*da> campaign to sell $27,829,500 in debenture bonds of the Fair to finance the construction period.Every confidence is being expressed that the Fair not only will "pay its way.” but that it will bring a billion dollars more of revenue into Greater New York and stimulate American industry in gen­ eral to an extent many fold that amountThe total cost of producing New York's Fair, including collateral improvements, is set at $125,000,000. Statisticians esti­mate that the attendance will total more than 50,000,000 persons.The City of New York, the State of New York, and the Government of foe United States, according to expectations, will account for $35,000,000 of the total expenditures and thus lend an o.Ticial backing never before achieved.

I, made a flying trip to Rowan recently to see their best girls. The Legislature And li­ quor. The Legislature does not intend to allow the people of North Caro­ lina as a unit to vote on the ques don of legal liquor. The action of the House in de cidlng by a count of 67 to 43 in favor of local option by counties is indicative of the ground swell of sentiment in that body against the State wide referendum. The presumption is that the up per chamber oi the Legislature will record a similar sentiment when time comes for that body to pass upon the measure adopted by the House. This is in keeping with the ma­ jority report of the late Liquor Commission which recommended the county option plan. This newspaper has opposed that procedure and opposes it now. W’e believe in allowing the peo­ ple of the State as a whole to de­ termine the destiny of this question. We believe in that method, first of all because it is decidedly, in our judgment, the more practical. Either all of North Carolina should be dry or none of it d ry - speaking now, of course, from what is conceived to be the practicalities of the question. Under the local option procedure which gives the voters of each county the right of self-determina­ tion, independent oif action or senti­ ment in any other county. North Carolina will be bodgepodged with some counties wet and some neigh­ bor counties dry and the equivalent of that order of things will be that the whole State will be virtually wet with only the legal wet coun­ ties deriviug the financial benefits from their stores. The logic of that plan is far more vulnerable than the State wide re ferendum method. For, if the right of self determi­ nation and autonomy in this issue is to be given counties, why should it hot be gives townships within these counties if those favorable to such a plan insist upon the demo­ cracy of their venture? The one is as logical as the other and from a practical standpoint, the one would be as unworkable as the other. The Observer has further op posed the local opinion set up and continues to oppose it on the ground of its violation of the pre­ vailing governmental policies in North Carolina. The State maintains and finances the public schools of all the coun ties, independent of what these in dividual counties may or may not wish. AU are educationally subject to State authority. The State also maintains and finances the public roads of all the counties, independet of local gov­ ernment within these counties. AU of them .are subject to State con trol in highway administrations. And by the same taken,. we in­ sist, the State should be the unit of determination not only of what is to be done about the repeal of p hibition, but -it should be the' con* trolling authority in the event re­ peal is authorized. Such authority would, obviously, carry with it the right of the State to collect the revenues from the whole of t he State and utilize such revehuesrfor its purposes.instead of permitting the counties, whose ma­ jor governmental activities, those of schools and roads, are now .being financed from the central govern­ ment at Raleigh, to IeVy and col­ lect all of these revenues for them­ selves. These observations have to do exclusively with the morality of the method in disposing of this Professional “Relief­ ers.” (From Waynesville Mountaineer.) Every first Monday there are usually from 50 to 100 people' who appear before the county commis sioners asking to be placed on the relief rolls. Some that are already on relief ask for more money, and to tell the truth, the average of these people can put up such tales ot woe that even a wooden Indian would sbed tears in sympathy. Bnt the commissioners have learn­ ed that the average person on re­ lief is a-professional—yes, a protes sional “reliefer.” And for that reason they turn all cases over to the superintendent of relief, Mrs. Dale Stentz, for an investigation. Some of the “reliefers” try to get help from both Mrs. Stentz and the commissioners and then is when the fun starts. Mrs.' Stentz is call ed in, and in a few minutes tells all the actual facts in the case of each ‘reliefer.” And after the board hears Mrs. Stentz’s side of the mat­ ter the “reliefer” is waved aside, because there is nothing to add to the story. Monday afternoon one man plead that heand-bis family were starving and freezing, since they had neither food nor clothing. Mrs Stentz brought forth. fact's and showed where four members of. the man’s family were. ..working daily, and being paid in cash. The man had owned a truck, and had. just a few weeks Netore quit a government job. The board of commissioners and Mrs. Stentz will not see anyone starve. NeitherwilltIiey knowing­ ly let anyone freeze, but from what we have observed from their meet­ ings they are not giving money, clothing or food to anyone who does not honestly deserve it. One woman Monday called the board and. Mrs. Stentz everything she could think of—things that we dare not put in print—bnt she did not deny the facts as presented by Mrs. Stentz, therefore did not get the help she sought. Young Men Wanted.

Contrary to widespread belief, the maiden of two centuries ago were not all timid, clinging vines especially in trapping a husband A writer for the -South Carolina Guide, a WPA project, discovered the following petition in the South Carolina Gazette of March 2 , 1734. addressed to the King of England: “The humble petition of all the maids whose names are under written. W’hereas we, the hum­ ble petitioners, aie at present in a very melancholy disposition of mind, considering how all the bachelors are blindly captivated by widows, and our more youthful charms thereby neglected, the con sequence of tbis our request is that Your Excellency will for the future order: “That no widow shall presume to marry any young man till the maids are provided tor, or else to pay each of them a fine for satis­ faction for invading our liberties, and likewise a fine to be laid on all such bachelors as shall be married to widows The great disadvant­ age it is to us maids is that the widows, by their forward carriage, do snap up the young men, and have the vanity to think their merits beyond ours, which is a great imposition upon us, who ought to have preference. ‘ ‘This is humbly recommended to Your Excellency’s consideration and hope you will prevent any fur­ ther insults.” ” , It was signed by 15 hopefuls.

If anybody wants proof of the charge that the legislature is trying to force liquor on the people of North Carolina in order to shift the tax harden from those who are able to those who are not able to pay, we cite the record 'of the finance committee in Raleigh. On the day after the House passed the bill to legalize the liquor traffic and levy a big sales tax on intoxi cants, the finance committee voted to hold the income tax rate on incomes above $10,000 to seven per cent. This means that the $100,000 and 111,000,000 incomes will be taxed at no higher rate than the $11,000 in­ come. And that means, of course, that the legislature does not propose to act upon the mandate of the peo­ ple at the ballot box last November, when they voted to levy a tax as high as ten per cent, on swollen incomes. By legalizing the liquor traffic, the General Assembly would save the large income taxpayers four percent, of the tax which the people voted to levy against them Thus again does a North Carolina legislature give relief to those at the top. whiie piling the burden higher on the backs of those at the bottom. For the liquor tax will be paid in the main by people who are least able to pay.—Winston Journal. The Origin of KhakiKhaki, which has almost become the universal color of aU armies, means “dust” in Persian. Certain irregular units of the Indian army used to be dressed in this cloth be­ cause it was cheap, and easily ob­tainable, says the London Daily Mail. During the Indian Mutiny sev­eral British regiments took to wear­ ing it—it was obviously far more practical than the heavy scarlet serge tunic. Many regiments soaked their cotton drill tunics in tea, which stained them more or less to a khaki shade. - The Joshua TreeThe Joshua tree is a branched, tree - like yucca of ‘ southwestern United States, often twenty - five feet high, with short leaves and clustered greenish - white flowers.

Dancing Is Not Need Of TJie Nation. Re . C. I. Norman, pastor of the Baptist churcn at Lockhardt, S. C , writes to the Baptist Courier, of Greenvilln, newspaper organ of the Baptist church in South Carolin in Ahich he termed Prendent Roose­ velt’s birthday ball a “pathetic re­ flection on our nation’s claim Chris­ tianity.” “This dance that our nation is putting on,” he said, “and which many of our church members are sponsoring, is one of the saddest commentaries on our modern civili­ zation. Norman asserted present day dancing was “pagan” and “condu­ cive to spiritual decay” and “yet, our great nation the recipient of God’s special favor, has put its ap­ proval upon the thing that is an en­ emy of God. Those who do not approve it seem afraid to oppose it.” The minister said he did not be­ lieve “any people can dance them­ selves into health nor drink them­ selves into prosperity. “The thing that our President should do. as I see it, is to call our nation to its knees in prayer unto Almighty God for mercy and guid­ ance, and for a great religious a- wakening pentecost. He asserted “God was not pleased with the birthday ball last year” and that a “nation wide epidemic” of in- fantile'paralysis followed. . “I am against the’ball,” the writer concluded, “and all other dances and worldliness.

We are in agreement with Tbe News andObserver that now since the State Legislature will not ratify the proposed amendment against child labor to the Federal Constitu­ tion, it is the mandatory duty of the State to handle this problem on its own initiative and under its own laws. North Carolina already has a suf­ ficiency of laws on its books to pre­ vent the employment of children of tender ages in sweat shops, if there are any in the State, or amid crn* ditions in factories unhealthy and un­ wholesome. It already has laws making it con,- pulsory For AU Children To attend public schools which, in itself, is in­ directly a child labor prohibition. North Carolina, however, has no laws which prohibit a tad of 15 or 16 or 17 or 18 from working on the farm doing chores about tbe house or en­ gaging in some form of honest, help­ ful and profitable labor in order to earn his own living or aid indigent parents in providing the necessities of life.

A/1 ANY winter colds are caused by hot, dry air in the home while the season for burning the furnace is on. Heat, of course, absorbs the moisture in the air. This hot air also dries out and damages furniture.You can easily and inexpensively provide for air-moisture by keep­ing a “pan humidifier,” or hot water pan, filled with water in each room of'your home. Designed to hang out of sight on the backs of radiators, these pans furnish water that can be evaporated by the radiator heat and provide mois­ture for the air in the rooms. This prevents the air from becoming too dry and lessens the chance of catching or spreading colds. Warm air heating plants are equipped with humidifier pans. AU you have to do is to keep them filled with fresh water. CopyrIshL-WNU Service. TREATMENT ANO GE?

A sk your fwijf BRIGHT STAR By M ary S chum ann Copyright by Macrae Smttb Co* WNU Servieo SYNOPSIS Kezb Marsht pretty, selfish and twenty, ar* rives home in Corinth from school and is met by her older brother, Hugh. He drives her to the Marsh home where her widowed mother, Fluvanna, a warm-hearted, self-sacrificing and understanding soul, welcomes her. Kezia’s sis* ter, Margery, plump and matronly with the care o! three children, is at lunch with them. Hugh's wife, Dorrie, has pleaded a previous engagement. On the way back to his job at the steel plant founded by one of his fore* bears, Httgh passes Doc Hiller, a boyhood friend whom he no longer sees frequently be* cause of Dome's antipathy. Fluvanna Marsh wakens the next-morning from a dream about her late husband. Jim, whose unstable char* acter she fears Keaa has inherited. Soon Ellen Pendleton comes over. She is as artis* ticaOy inclined girl who is a distant niece of Fluvanna’* and a favorite of Hugh's. She hap* pily tells Fluvanna she has become engaged to Jerry Purdue. Ellen fears that her father and mother, Gavin and Lizzie, will not ap* prove the match. Hugh and Dorrie go out to the Freeland Farms to ^ dance with their friends, Cun and Joan Whitney. Whitney, who has been out of-work, announces tliat he has landed a new position. They see Ellen Pendle* ton and Jerry Purdue. CHAPTER n —Continued —S— ‘'Art?" said Cun. “I see.

Hugh stood up. “Joan?”As they swung into step he said, “Well, Jonny, the troubles are all over. I’m ever so glad that Cun has work. You’ve been a brick, but I could see .it was hard on you.” Joan gave a smothered exclama­ tion and did not reply. He looked down. Joan’s eyes were filled with tears.“What did I say? . . . Hurt you? . . . Awfully sorry.” He was dismayed. “Come on; we’ll go outside.” He led her through Uie screened door to the long veranda. They sat in a swing. “Overlook it, Hugh. Nerves, I think.” She dabbed her eyes with his handker­ chief. “And relief from the strain. A man has to work to fill up his time . . . Cun has to be busy more than most men—hVs built that way. Then you spoke to me so sweetly and sympathetically and I went to pieces.”Hugh sat beside her feeling touched and bewildered. It was plain she had some worry on Ler mind about Cun.Presently Joan rose, saying: “Steer me around through the hall to the dressing-room and I’ll wash up . . . I must be all streaky. Hugh, I’m sorry I pulled this scene for you. You don’t know how abased I feel.”"Forget it. Glad you did, if you want to know. We skim the sur­face of conventionalities too much with our friends. We’d be more understanding if we knew what was in the other person's heart.” “Most, hearts don’t bear show­ ing.”“I can’t believe that.” “!•suppose we think it good man­ ners,” said Joan dubiously. “And to live on the surface of things isn’t a bad way . . . take what comes today and not worry about tomor­row; forget you have a heart! I'm trying to achieve it. I never quite make it . . . still I try very hard.” He left her at the dressing-room door and went back to their table. Dorrie and Cun were nowhere about, and Ellen and Jerry had disappeared. He saw his sister, Kezia, dancing with Arthur Wil­ liams. He left the sandwiches un­touched but opened' a bottle of beer, and sat sipping it. Dorrie and Cun approached; she was animated, laughing. “Where did you and Joan disappear? We tried to find you but you had hid­ den yourselves In some secluded corner. Of course you weren't parked in the automobile? . . . Orwereyou,Hugh?” Joan came up just then, her face freshly powdered and bearing -no trace of emotion. “We were moon- iiig on the veranda,” she said gay- iy.Cun drew out her chair. ‘Til have to. look into this,” he threat* ened.“Is there a moon? It seemed terribly dark to me!” Dorrie teased.“Explain your absence!” said Hugh with a smile. “Never explain!” answered Dor­rie lightly. “Explanations lead to nothing and nowhere! Hugh, you haven’t danced with me.” At home and in their own room, Hugh sighed with contented fatigue as he untied his tie.Dorrie slipped off her dras and sat down on the bench before the dressing-table to cold cream her nails. “Lovely evening, wasn’t it, darling?”“Enjoy it?” “Very much.” “I did myself after we got start­ ed. Naturally . they wanted to celebrate after such good news. It has been a tough winter and spring for them. Especially Joan.” Dorrie frowned a little as she bent her head lower. 'cWhy espe­cially Joan?”“I think she felt it morie. Fact is,, she cried tonight . . . that was the reason we left the floor. I said something about the new job, and she broke down—hysterical re­lief, I think. Wept all over the place when I got her outside.” Dorrie’s lip curled.. “Silly." “I thought it was rather natural. She’s kept up a good front all along.” He looked at her, trou­ bled; he had expected more sym­pathy for Joan’s predicament “Re­ verse the case, Dorrie. Suppose I had been out of work for almost a year. Wouldn’t you be a bit teary with joy when I did land something?” “No—I’d have confidence enough in you to be sure you’d get some­thing splendid in place of the old one. Cun is a simply marvelous salesman. Everyone says so. He was sure to be placed in a little while. The future with the Cres­cent company is much better than his old place at the Arrow Steel.” “But even so— ” He hesitated. “I gathered something else was bothering her. She seemed to feel that Can might get into difficulties, not working.” -“Oh!” Dorrie’s eyes flew open, startled. “JIow odd.”“Perhaps.” “No, she didn’t say what she was afraid of. Drinking—gam­bling. Cun’s a popular fellow.” He started for the closet and said from its depths, “She gave me “You’re So GidUble!** quite t. jolt. It was so unexpected, coming from her.” “And I suppose when she wept, you comforted her?” He laughed a little. "Yes; lent her my handkerchief!”“You’re so gullible I”“Oh, I say now . . . Dorrie, really ” He stood over her.Lights sparkled in her eyes from inward laughter. She IUted her face for his kiss. “Thin-skinned” she murmured, stroking his hair. CHAPTER m Ellen and Jerry lingered late at their dinner at the Freeland Farms. The dancing began at nine o’clock and the orchestra, a pian­ ist, a saxophone player and a drummer, were just taking their places at the far end of the hall.“They wanted to know whom I was going out to dinner with again. When I said you, they looked at each other—you know parents—and said that I seemed to be going out with you a great deal lately . . . so then I told them.”Jerry picked at his salad idly, then laid his fork down. His hair was dark brown, almost black, straight, and lay back, sleek and glistening on his head with th* help of a pomade. His com- plexion was a smooth olive and went well with his eyes, the color of black coffee. When he smiled his eyes had sparkling depths, and his lips a combination of sensitive­ness and sensuousness. “And what did they say?”For an instant Ellen looked troubled, remembering. Then, the dimples played over her face a, pride in Jerry reassured ' her. “They want to see you—talk to you. When they do that, it will be all right.” “Sure?” Jerry was not smiling now. There was a hint of brood­ ing in his eyes. “I’m certain of it. I told them rd bring you in after dinner.” Jerry gave a faint groan and looked at his plate.“Frightened?” ' “I feel as if I were to be shot at sunrise.” - “Silly! . . . My parents have never committed a murder so far!” “Yes, but it sounds ominous. I’m to be brought in—tried—executed! Couldn’t we put it off until tomor­row night?” When she did not' answer, he went on: “Look your last oh meas a whole man! I have a feeling I’ll resemble a sieve in an hour or so—shot full of holes. I’ve met your father several ‘times but he doesn’t speak to me on the street, and your mother has never been— friendly! What will they say when they Imow I have the audacity to want to marry you?” (TO BE CONTINUED) Hog Bristle “Chu Cbang*' In Hotu, China, where bristlei are obtained for paint brushes, the natives call hog bristle “chu chang.” After being-scraped from the hog’s back the bristles are beat e:. with sticks to knock out Uu rough dirt.

From New York, where she went to visit Helen Hayes, she telephoned the studio that she would come back soon ready to begin preparatory work on “Marie Antoinette.” She chose this story in prefer­ ence to any other, because she had discussed every detail of its production with her hus­ band before his death. Actual date of production depends on Charles Laughton, because she is determined to have him in the cast and he is under con­ tract to make several pictures in England. It is good to know that we will ba seeing Norma on the screen again. The most encouraging and sym­ pathetic audience any girl ever had while making a film test was Alice Mar­ ble’s when she tried out recently. Carole Lombard was right there on the side­lines making sug­ gestions and cheer­ing. Some people might think that Alice Marble won enough glory in ten­ nis tournaments for one young girl, but Carole thinks it would be nicer for her to get in the big earnings that come with glory in pictures. —-J t- Badio favorites are moving en masse to Hollywood.

She is Minnie, the singing mouse, who appeared on the National Barn Dance pro­gram, and who will probably be star of a program of her own soon. Minnie was trained by W. W. Lichty, a veterinary of Woodstock,. Hl., who noticed that when he was playing the piano, one of the mice he raises for experimental purposes tried to follow the tune. — - Paramount is going to defy the fates aind attempt to make a pic­ ture that has long been a jinx in their studio. They started it last year with Marlene Dietrich, and when it was about half-finished, she walked out and declared that she would have none of it. So, Para­ mount engaged Margaret Sullavan to replace her, and Hien little Sul- la van tripped over a cable and frac­ tured her arm. Paramount still likes the story, once called “Hotel Imperial” and then “I Loved a Sol­ dier” and also they like very much a young Viennese actress named Franciszka Gaal, so they are go­ing io attempt to make It with her. George Cukor, who WiIl direct “Gone Witix the Wind,” is deter­ mined to cast some girl who is not very well known in pic­ tures in the lead. One faction at the studio wants Tallu­lah B ankhead whose tests have shown her to be a brilliant actress, but too old for the early part of the story. Others want Margaret Sullavan. But by far the most promising candidate is a very yoiing and vivid actress on the ' New York stage named Louise Platt.

Sister’s bit of intrigue is, as you can see, a dress worth want­ ing to show off (Pattern 1223). It is made of velveteen. The smart collar, flattering flared skirt and puff sleeves are good reasons for this frock’s popularity. It comes in sizes 6 to 14 years. Size 8 re­quires 2% yards of 39 inch ma­ terial. Jule’s Entertaining Dress. Jule knows a neat trick when she sees one whether on the table or in a page of fashions, and she didn’t miscue in choosing Pattern 1998. It will look more trig and lovely after each washing. The diagram shows why a few hours is all that’s needed to sew this grand number. You may have it in sizes 34 to 46. Size 36 requires 4% yards of 33 inch material. With long sleeves 4% yards. It Was Easy, Says Bose. They didn’t believe Rose when she said she made this startlingly pretty dress (Pattern 1224). She did though, even the buttonholes! However, the same stunning effect can be had by sewing the buttons on for trimming only. The ele­ gance of the princess-like lines, the eclat of the heart shaped sleeves and withal its ease of construction make the question read “How can I help but make this dress?” It is available in sizes 12 to 20 (30 to 40 bust). Size 14 requires 4% yards of 39 inch material, plus % yard con­ trasting. With long sleeves 4% yards required. New Pattern Book. Send for the Barbara Bell Spring and Summer Pattern Book.

They take one or two tab­lets the first night and repeat the third or fourth night if needed. How do Calotabs help Nature throw off a cold? First1Calotabs are one of the most thorough and dependable of all intestinal elimi- nants, thus cleansing the intestinal tract of the germ-laden mucus and toxines. Second, Calotabs are diu­retic to Uie kidneys, promoting the elimination of cold poisons from IAe blood. Thus Calotabs serve the double purpose of a purgative and diuretic, both of which are needed in the treatment of colds.Calotabs are quite economical; only twenty-five cents to r the fam­ily package, ten cents for the trial package.

Freeman in charge. j Dallas C. Kirby, local attorney, has started an action in Davie su­ perior court which is different from anv suit ever instituted here. I Kirby has filed suit against his landlady, Mrs V.

According to information, Mrs Swann, widow of the former mayor ot Mocksville, asked Mr. and Mrs Kirby to vacate the apartment which she rented to them and has refused to accept rent for the suite of rooms Mrs Swaim stated that they refused to move and in order to force the Kirbys out of the house, she cut the water off from their apartment. Kirby then re sponded with the suit instituted in court. Mrs V. E Swaim. of Mocksville, said Thursday that the statement in a news story s<*nt in by The Jotir nal’s Mocksville correspondent that she cut off the water in her home in order to force Mr, and Mrs. Dallas C. Kirby “to move out of the house” was erroneous. Mrs Swain said it was true that she had asked Mr. and Mrs Mirbv to vacate the apartment, refused to accept the rent February I and no­ tified tbem there would be no water rent. The water was cut off she said February 6 because of a leak­ ing pipe. She admitted, however, that she had made the statement that she could force them out of the house by cutting off the water.

Since the above was put in type, we understand that the case has been compromised, aud that Mr. Kirby will move on or before April ist, and has paid the costs in the case, and will take a non-suit. i.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Disastrous Flood Moves Down the Mississippi—Mass Evac­ uation Prepared—Secretary Perkins Moves to Compel General Motors Strike Parley. By EDWARD W. PICKARD © W eitcn Newipaper Union. General Malln Craiff r ; RADUALLY the terrible flood In the Ohio valley subsided, but the yellow torrents were pour­ ing down the lower Misassippi and the nation was mo­ bilized to save the people there. By di­rection of the Pres­ ident and Gen. Mal­ta Craig, chief of staff, the army ihade all prepara­tions for the evacu­ ation of all inhabi­tants along the riv­ er between Cairo,Hl., and New Or­ leans. The details for this mass move­ ment were worked out to the last point by commanding officers in the region and thousands of motor trucks and railroad flat cars were collected. Headquarters for the evacuation were set up at Jackson, Miss. Lieut. Col. Eugene Reybold, dis­trict engineer at Memphis, ordered the prompt delivery of 5,000,000 bur­lap sacks for the erection of sand­ bag bulwarks, 15 cars of lumber, 210 outboard motorboats, 300 small boats, 300 life jackets, and 1,500 lanterns.The secretary of war authorized the use of not only regular army troops but also members of the Civilian Conservation corps, the National Guard, and the Red Cross.General Craig said that if the bil­ lion dollar levee system, erected after the great 1927 flood, failed to hold, about the same area affected then would be inundated. Many thousands of people already had been removed from homes along the Mississippi, but cities like Memphis and Vicksburg, being on high ground, were believed to be safe. At New Orleans river experts re­ fused to admit danger of a super- flood along the lower reaches of the river. But Secretary of War Wood- ring in Washington had reports b o m engineers which said the levee system on the lower Missis­sippi probably would not be able to withstand the present flood when it reaches its crest. At this writing the effects of the flood may be thus summarized: Homeless, nearly a million. Dead, probably more than 500, including 200 in Louisville. Damage, conserv­ atively estimated at more than $400,- 000,000. Congress hurried through a defi­ciency appropriation of $790,000,- 000 which the President promised would be made available for flood relief; and the American Red Cross, working at high speed, was raising a fund of $10,000,000 to which the people of the entire country con­tributed liberally. Supplies of food, drinking water, clothing and medi­ cines were poured into the stricken areas. Cincinnati, Louisville, Ports­mouth, Frankfort and Evansville were the worst sufferers; but every city, town and village along the Ohio and its tributaries shared in the disaster. Fires broke out in the 'Mill Creek district of Cincinnati and destroyed property valued at $1,500,- SOO before the flames could be con­ trolled. Throughout the entire re­ gion transportation was crippled, pure water and fuel supplies were shut off or greatly reduced, and outbreaks of typhoid and pneumonia were threatened. In Louisville the light and power plant was forced to shut down. In Frankfort, Ky., the state re­formatory was flooded and the pris­ oners were removed to other quarters with the aid of troops. The convicts took advantage of the emergency to start a riot and about a dozen were killed. All of southern Indiana was placed under martial law by Governor Townsend. P ORTY THOUSAND employees of " General Motors returned to part time work in reopened plants in Michigan and Indiana, and were un­ molested by the strikers. But the deadlock was not broken, and the sit- down strikers con­ tinued to occupy the plants they had “kidnaped.” Presi­ dent Alfred P. Sloan Jr., of General Mo­ tors had refused the invitation of Secre­tary of Labor Per­ kins t# meet John L. Lewis, chief of the striking unions, while the strikers were still in forcible possession of plants, and President Roosevelt ominously termed this- refusal "a very unfortunate decision en 'his part,” intimating, also, that there was a prospect of labor legislation unfavorable to tlie corporation and to employers generally. Sloan persisting in his attitude, Secretary Perkins started a move for legislation that would compel him to meet Lewis. In identical letters to Speaker Bankhead and Senator,. Jee Ro.binson, majority A. P. Sloaa leadei of the senate, she asked the prompt passage of a bill empower­ ing her department to subpoena per­sons and papers in connection with investigations of strikes. To the press Miss Perkins said that once she had this power she would sum­ mon Sloan to a meeting with Lewis in Washington; but she was not sure she could compel him to nego­tiate a strike settlement Sloan had posted in all General Motors plants a denial that the cor­ poration was responsible for Uie breakdown of negotiations and was “shirking our moral responsibil­ ities.” He reiterated his refusal to treat with the union so long as the sit-down strikers held the plants, and continued with a promise to employees; “We shall demand that your rights and our rights be protected” against “a small minority who have seized certain plants and are hold­ing them as ransom to enforce their demands. "I say to you once more, have no fear. Do not be misled. General Motors will never let you down. You will not have to pay tribute for the privilege of working in a General Motors plant.” Sloan contends that more than 100,000 G. M. employees have ex­pressed a desire to return to work. Lewis scoffs at this claim but will not countenance the holding of an election to determine whether his unions command the majority nec­ essary to constitute them the sole collective bargaining agency. The federal labor relations board could order such an election but it has not intervened, and probably will not. Governor Murphy of Michigan had not modified his refusal to per­mit the National Guardsmen sta­ tioned in Flint to be utilized in carrying'out a judicial order that the plants be vacated by the sit- down strikers. rPHE six-week strike of 7,100 em- -*• ployees of the Libbey-Owens- Ford Glass company ended with ap­proval by the union committee and company officials of a wage agree­ ment giving a fiat eight-cent-an-hour increase in all plants of the com­ pany. A one-year-contract was signed. The agreement provides for ap­ pointment of a committee of five to investigate wage rates of the Pitts­ burgh Plate Glass company with a view to establishing uniformity of rates throughout the flat glass in­dustry. TV/ff AYBB it was just a promotion stunt for the book, but Senator Joseph F. Guffey of Pennsylvania, Democrat, introduced in the senate a resolution calling for an investigation of the truth or falsi­ ty of scurrilous charges made against the Supreme Court in “Nine Old Men,” a volume au­ thored by two con­ductors of a Wash­ ington gossip col­umn. In offering the _ resolution GuffeySen. Gnffey made a bitter attack on the Supreme Court, saying: "The President of the United States, with his characteristic frank­ ness and courage, has opened for debate the most troublesome prob­lem which we must solve if we are to continue a democracy.“That problem is—whether th e Supreme court will permit congress, the legislative branch of our gov­ ernment, which was equally trusted with the Supreme court by the framers of the Constitution, to per­form its duties in making democra­ cy workable and effective.” The senate heard Guffey’s speech in silence and referred his resolu­tion to the judiciary committee. A RTIFICIAL scarcity of farm ** products is abandoned as a pol­icy for the time being by Secretary of 'Agriculture Wallace. He said in Washington that the two drouth years of 1934 and 193S have brought more thought on farm production by consumers and farmers than ever before. While a year or two of nor­ mal weather would tumble wheat prices, if full acreage is planted, the time has come for a lifting of the restrictions, he said. “In the year immediately ahead, I feel that farmers should think primarily of their duty to consum­ ers,” ,Wallace said. “I think that in the coming year it is wise for us to produce as much as we can. We should, of course, divert a certain amount of corn and cotton acreage to soil conserving crops, because that will make for greater long time productivity of our farm land.“But for the most part, let’s fill up the storage bins this year. It is good policy to vary the plaits for storage of crops in the soil accord­ ing to. the state of supplies in the granary above the ground.” W l d t r > n ioU ) 'JhmhdGhout Hollywood "Rifts” and "Probes.” Bev er ly h ills , c a l if .-— Out here, our two favorite headlines are "R ift” and "Probe," one signifying that some ideal marriage between movie stars has begun to split at the seams and the other that some functionary has been in office long enough for the pro­ fessional investigators to start investigating.

I started to add that this proves the Indians are holding their own, but, since we’ve left them very little of their own to hold, I stayed my hand. The Navahoes always have been the most independent and aloof of ell the tribesmen. For the most part, they continue to live a nomadic ex­istence, following their ancient be­ liefs and ceremonials, refusing to be caged in towns, yet, numerically and in material possessions, they out­ grow any other tribe.Can it be that the white man’s culture,- which we so jealousy strive to cram down the gullets of red people and black and brown and yellow, isn’t always what the victims need? But, of course, to say that is prac­tically to admit our civilization might have a few tiny flaws in it, whereas we know it to be the one perfect creation of man, and for proof point to its crowning achieve­ ment, the late World war.* * * The Spoils System.' I 'HlS isn’t a criticism, it’s a timid little prediction based on all the political experience that the past yields to us: Pledges of curtailment in govern; mental expenditures, as eman­ ating from White House sources, are undoubtedly sincere. But Andy Jackson or whoever it was first coined the line, expressed the correct idea when he said that to the victor belonged the spoils— and not to let them spoil too long either. So it shouldn’t surprise anybody or deeply shock anybody, except the few G. O.

ITationaI Topics Interpreted by William Brockart Washington.—The arrival of the first robin is only a sign of the com- ing of spring. It D a n g e r does not bring Signs spring weather.Nevertheless, we Americans watch for signs all our lives and lately there have been sev­ eral of them in national affairs that are worthy of notice.There never has been a time in our country’s history, as far as I have been able to discover, when the tension surrounding labor con­ ditions has been as dangerous as it is right now. I do not believe any­ one can forecast what the results are going to be; what all of these strikes and factional fights in or­ ganized labor mean and I am con­vinced that they represent some­ thing much deeper than just dis­ satisfaction with wages or growing pains -of expanding business. In other words, there are many stu­dents of national affairs who are attempting to analyze current labor conditions as signs of new times. “ Most observers with whom I have discussed the present labor prob­ lems, are hopeful that these trou­ bles mean only continued increases In the demand for labor. That is, they want to accept these signs as indicative of a returning and sound prosperity in commerce and indus­try. Yet, none of them is quite sure. There are too many “ifs” and too many uncertainties for anyone to attempt a complete diagnosis of the circumstances. Some weeks ago I ventured the opinion in these columns that the rift in organized labor between Wil­ liam Green as head of the Ameri­can Federation of Labor and John L. Lewis as sponsor of the indus­ trial union idea, likely would result in serious trouble for the labor un­ ions themselves. I was unable to report then that which I can write at this time, namely, that the schism in organized labor appears certain to set back the cause of organized labor many years. In­deed, it seems that the split, tan­gled as it is with partisan politics, may prove to be the uncharted rock in union labor’s course and its ship may founder on it. • • • But the situation is fraught with graver possibilities, I am sure. _ There are ele- G ra o e ments and influ- P o ssib ilH ie t ences at work in the labor situation today that easily could lead to riots and bloodshed. From riots and bloodshed it is only a step to revo­lution of a political sort. None here knows exactly what the administration’s labor policies are beyond the exaggerated prom­ises made during the last Presi­ dential campaign. Of course, Pres­ ident Roosevelt and the bulk of his New Deal spokesmen are exceed­ingly friendly, overfriendly some be­ lieve, to organized labor. The New Dealers had organized labor with them in the last campaign. Now, however, it is made to appear that the support of labor in the cam­ paign is proving more or less em­barrassing to the administration which has jusbstarted on its second four-year term .\Some of the critics of. the admin­ istration are outspoken in their statements that Mr. Roosevelt is trying to dodge, trying to avoid, get­ ting mixed up too deeply in labor’s problems. Some of his subordinates have been active but the President has stayed out of the picture just as far as he could and as long as he could. I am inclined to believe that these assertions that Mr. Roosevelt is afraid to take leadership too fre­ quently in labor’s problems are un­fair to the President. They amount to a statement that he laclcs cour­age—which is not true. On the con­ trary, there are many who believe with me that Mr. Roosevelt senses developments yet to arise in the la­ bor situation and he is, therefore, being cautious as to is steps thus early in what threatens to be a national labor crisis. On the other hand, it is difficult to explain why the national labor rela­tions board has been so nearly qui­ escent through such strikes as the plate glass and portions of the auto­ mobile workers. I t there ever was • situation made to order for use of the agency set up under the so-called Wagner law, that situation was to be found in the two strikes just mentioned. The board did so little in those cir­ cumstances that its existence can be said to have been forgotten^ It amounted to a dead letter insofar as the law itself is concerned. In some quarters one can hear discus­ sion to the effect that sponsors of the national labor relations act and board were unwilling to have that agency and the law receive a real test at this time. I have been un­ able to confirm this thought at all but frankly the circumstances that one sees indicate there is some truth in the rumor that too much of a burden should not be unloaded on the board for its first real test.Business interests never have be­ lieved the law to be constitutional. Th* New Dealers, however, have contended vociferously 'that it is valid and yet we have the picture of a New Deal agency failing to perform the very functions for which it was created.. - • * • I mentioned earlier some of the signs and portenits that are visible „ in the labor situa-“Sit Down” tion. One of the Strikes most important of these is the sig­ nificance of the "sit down” type of strike;' I find many informed au­ thorities who refer to the “sit down’* strike as a key point in present la­ bor problems. It is something new in this coun­try. It is a program of striking in which labor is entirely passive but by which it usurps the rights of own­ ership. The workers simply stay in the plants, offering no trouble and for the most part avoiding destruc­ tive tactics. But it .is the fact that they remain in the plants, the prop­ erty of their employers, that is caus­ ing considerable, worry in govern­ ment circles. ' The reason why this phase of strike' tactics is creating concern lies in the fact that it amounts to the seizure of private property by individuals who have no right or warrant in law. It would be the same thing as far as legal rights are concerned if a group of strikers went to your home or mine and announced they expected to stay there. There is no difference in the two situations. While the ef­ fect on you or me would be less important to the country as a whole, it remains as a fact that our rights would be violated in exactly the same manner as rights of corpora­ tions were violated, say, in the Gen­ eral Motors strike. After all, you and I are merely units of the great mass of people that make up the United States of America. Now, it takes no great stretch of the imagi­ nation to recognize that if union labor establishes its ability to oc­cupy the property of others and fixes that as a precedent, then where are the rights of any. person who owns property. It matters not whether it is a small cottage, a farm home or a great industrial plant—the right to own property, guaranteed to us by the Constitution of the United States, is virtually nullified. One of the rights of American cit­ izenship is a right to own prop­ erty. It is a principle that has grown to be sacred with us since the Boston tea party. Yet, it is being challenged and thus for the federal government has made no move to break it up. As long as employers organize and tread on la­bor with a steel boot, just so long the workers are entitled to organize to combat mistreatment from busi­ness. But it does not seem to ine to be a right of labor to actually take private property. To that extent I cannot feel very kindly toward those strikers at present asserting such a right through use of the “sit down” strike. Now, there are reasons why the federal government has not acted. If troops were sent into private fac­tories to drive out the "sit down” strikers, one can readily see what a riot would result. But if the federal government fails to enforce this in­herent right, it is not doing its sworn duty to the rest of the people. And it was only a few weeks ago that Mr. Roosevelt, again took the oath of office as President, swearing to enforce as well as’ defend the Constitution. Then, another phase of the situa­ tion is being discussed. The Wag­ner law says employers must nego­ tiate collectively "with the major-: ity” organization, of employees and it decrees further that the labor re­ lations board shall determine which is the majority organization; that it can decide this question on evi- dence or . order an election among employees. None can tell usually whether union or company organiza­ tion employees are in the major­ity in some of these strikes, so the labor relations board has kept out of them. Taking this labor situation as a whole, I believe I am justified in. saying, as I said earlier, that it portends a crisis. Preaching of class hatred has been the main occupa­tion of certain elements in the last three or four years and now those, elements are reaping what they sowed.

Love of money is the root of all evil; but curiosity oft leads to wickedness. If you don't think you can do it, try it anyway. Then you will find out why you can’t. People who haven’t morals al­ ways say morals are a matter of geography. Correcting Errors Correction of error is the plain­ est fruit of energy and mastery. Think about it pretty often and one will daily find a gratifying op­portunity of being kind. We believe in applying the mind to art, culture and literature—but not every instant.

IMPROVED UMIFORM INTERNATIONAL UNDAYIcHooL LessonS B r REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQUISTa Deaa of the Moody Sible InstitnU of Chicago.C Weitera Kewepaper Union. Lesson for Februaty 14 JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD LESSON TEXT—John 10:1-18.GOLDEM TEXT—I am the good shep­herd: Uie good shepherd giveth his life fox the sheep. John 10:11.PRIMARY TOPlC-A Good Shepherd.JUNIOR TOPlC-The Good Shepherd.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— Ho./ Jesus Is Like a Shepherd.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— Jesus Our Good Shepherd. The blind man who had been healed had been cast out of the synagogue because he had given the glory for his healing to Jesus Christ, (see ch. 9). The door to that which stood for all that was sacred to/ him had been closed, whither should he turn? Lookt here comes someone seeking him. It is Jesus, who now declares that the door which men had closed was no true door at all, for he says, “I am the door of the sheep.” Those who pro­fessed to be shepherding the flocks and who had cast this poor man out were but hirelings. Now he speaks to the One who says, “I am the good Shepherd.”Someone has suggested that the parable of the good shepherd pre­ sents the whole day in the life ot the shepherd and his flock, morning, noon, and night, and typifies the ministry of Christ on our behalf in the varying circumstances of life.I. In the Morning (John 10:1-6).Flocks were sometimes kept in the field at night, as was the case on the night when Jesus was bora in Bethlehem. But ordinarily they were brought into a sheepfold where many flocks gathered for protec­tion. Thieves would climb the wall to steal sheep, but the shepherd, when he came in the msrning to lead forth his flock, entered in by the door. He called out his flock by name and they knew his voice. It is said that only a sick sheep will follow a stranger, which may explain why so many false isms of our day appeal to the sick and lead them away from the Good Shep­herd.Do you know his voice? Have you responded to his call? Will you fol­low him? Decide now.n. In the Heat of the Day (w. 7-10). Perhaps the sheep need to enter the fold to rest, if so he is the door. But they may wish to go out to the pasture—again he is the door. Belonging to Christ is not bondage. If any man enter in by Christ, the Door, he is free to go in and out, to find pasture, to live for and to serve him. “The Door.” What a striking fig­ure) It is a means of entry, the only way in. Every door has two sides and the side we are on de­ termines whether we are inside or outside—saved or lost. Children used to sing, and still do: One Door and only one.And yet Its sides are two— Inside and outside.On which side are you? ID. When Night Comes (w. 11- 16). The wolves come out as the shad- bws gather. They come to kill and to scatter. Where is the shepherd? If he is only a hireling, serving for what may “be in it” for him, he will flee. How perfectly this pic­tures religious leaders who, in spite of their swelling words and ingra­tiating manners, desert the flock in the hour of adversity. Fair weather friends are they, who disappear when darkness and danger appear.In the darkest hour Jesus is near* est at hand. He never fails. He has no fear, for has he not tasted the bitter death of Calvary’s tree for you and for me? He is the good shepherd. He giveth his life for the sheep. Those who have put their trust in him shall never be put to shame.Because he has given his life for the sheep we must not forget nor neglect the truth found in verse 16. There are “other sheep” that have not yet been brought into the fold. They must be brought in, and we, jn His behalf, must bring them, that there may “be one fold and one shepherd.” , Penitence and Mercy Man ipust not ' disclaim his brotherhood, even with the guilti­ est, since though his hand be clean iis heart has surely been polluted iy the flitting phantoms of iniquity. He must feel that when he shall knock at the gate of Heaven no semblance of an unspotted life can entitle him to an entrance there. Penitence must kneel and Mercy come. from the footstool of the Throne, or that golden gate will never open.—Nathaniel Hawthorne. The Power of PrayerThe greatest thing anyone can do for God and for man is to pray. When one understands about pray­ er, and puts prayer in its right place, one finds that it is the doing that grows out of praying that is mightiest in touching human hearts.—S. D. Gordon.

Outlook Justifies State Participation In New Yoi*k Fair Whalen Voices Opinion in Inviting Governor and People Io the 1939 Exposition NEW YORK, (Special) .—In a letter of invitation to the governors of 47 states, Grover Whalen. President of the New York World's Fair 1939 Corporation, points out that the commercial conse­quences ol the international exposition under construction in New York City are so great and important that they alone would justify the active participation of every state in the nation.“Fifty million persons from every walk in life, from every state in the United States, from every country in the world, are expected to attend ;he Fair,** writes Mt. Whalen. “The great American mar­ket with its tremendous consumer pur­chasing power will be represented by these visitors. They will comprise a true cross-section of America ”The World's Fair, according to Mr. Whalen, will be a magnificent spectacle, entertaining and instructive. It will at­tempt to answer the questions: wWtaat kind of a world have we built? What kind of a world are we building? What kind of a world can we build?'* With collateral improvements, it will repre­sent a total investment of more than $125,000,000 by the Fair Corporation and the governmental, industrial and other participants. The Fair site park is a tract of 121SJ& acres, almost at the geograph­ical and population centre of New York City.Construction of buildings and roads, •grading, dredging, planting and Iand- scaping are already under way, based tupon a schedule which calls for comple- itlon of all construction operations before •January 1,1939, to allow four months for ‘final decorations and installation of ex- ’ Mbits preparatory to the opening of the 'Fair on April 30.• The opening date commemorates the inauguration, on April 30,1789, of George ' Washington as the first President of the United States.In the government area, and near an ^ Imposing federal hall to be erected by the United States Government, the Fair .will provide a “Hall of States” in which the significant contributions of each state in laying the foundations for the better World of Tomorrow can be proudly dis­played, says Mt. Whalen.His letter supplements an invitation to participate in the Fair extended to the governors November 30 by Governor ; Herbert H. Lehman of the host state of 'New York. Governor Lehman pointed out that the State of New York has al­ready appropfiated, to date, $2,130,000 !for commencement of construction of !boulevards, service roads, bridges, and certain other basic improvements the State will make at the exposition site or its approaches.

Lefttorightabove are LaGuardia, Eampan and Father Flanagan, founder and director of Boys Town. THE world’s youngest mayor visited New York recently as official, guest of the mayor of the world's, largest city—and they talked about budgets!Danny Kampan, Mayor of Boys Town, Nebr., is only 17 and the youngest mayor of a real city in the world. As mayor of New York, Fiorello LaGuardia con­trols the largest municipal bud­ get in the world.After being locked in private conference in LaGuardia’s of­fice for some fifteen minutes, the mayor of Nsw York admitted newspapermen and photogra­ phers:“Mayor Kampan and I have exchanged credentials” LaGuar- dia said. “We’ve decided this job of being mayor isn’t all it’s cracked up to be!”“You said it!” chimed in the youthful Kampan.Going to New York to take part in a national radio broad­cast, the Mayor of Boys Town and Father Flanagan, founder and director of the nationally famous home for homeless boys there were accorded all the courtesies' and honors extended by the metronolis only to world celebrities. They were met at the train by Mayor LaGuardia’s official motor cavalcade with smartly uniformed motorcycle officers flanking all sides. With screaming sirens clearing- their way through the heavy New York traffic, they were whisked to the city hall for the big public re­ception.While the two mayors posed for a battery of photographers, Father Flanagan stood in the background smiling gently, his. eyes serious and kindly. He founded Boys Town, ten miles west of Omaha in 1917. Since then 4,466 homeless boys of all races, colors and creeds—from the 48 states of the union have been made good citizens there.Beseiged by reporters for a history of his famous home he said: “No boy is a really bad boy. If you take him off the streets you can stem the tide of Crime. No one wants to be a criminal. It’s only the lack of opportunity that makes boys criminals.” Breathless before the honors and recognition extended his homeless boys by the great American metropolis Father Flanagan told newspapermen how Boys Town began 19 years ago with five boys, how today present Boys Town with its 360 acres of fine farm land and' modern buildings was his dream come true. With pride he show­ ed reporters a recent letter writ­ten him by J. Edgar Hoover, head of the nation’s G-Men. Hoover wrote: “If Boys Town were just financially able to care for all the boys that need its help, crime would be dealt one of the most effective and crush­ing blows I can imagine.”While to New York, young Kampan was offered an oppor­tunity to attend an eastern pre­paratory school, a scholarship in an eastern - college and a career. He turned them down with thanks, and a smile: “Thank you' very much” he said “but I think I’ll go back with Father Flanagan!” / During a celebration in Voroshi­ lov, Russia, two parachute jumpers landed, one with a complete port­able cinema outfit and film of “Chapyev” and the other with an accordion, the two men afterward giving a motion picture show and concert ____________ Volcanoes in Alaska Alaska contains a number of vol­canoes that have been active in the last century. t,- The ceaseless surge of progress has obliterated local boundaries.

The eulogiums that accompany the passing of this great statesman are in no sense overdrawn. Whilehe belonged to a school that is considered obsolete and totally out of fashion in these days, the fact remains that Mr. Root used both bis private.and public careers for the purpose of getting his country into safe and; sound channels both at home and abroad. Twice heserved as secretary of State, once in the Cabinet of Mc KinIey and next in that of President Theodpre Roosevelt. His policies while in these ’ emi­ nent positions of leadership showed the mark of a man of wide know­ ledge and of intelligent comprehen­ sions of international problems. Mr. Root’s greatest contribution, perhaps; to the phblic life of Ameri ca was in the direction of world peace. . His vieprs on'this issue were pro. nounced and forward looking. He believed that the world would never enjoy the be&titudes of peace ’ until all the' nations soberly and in con­ science swore themselves against war. ■ He was one of the more virile in fluences in -the organization of the World Court and was an honored and leading member of The.Hague’s permanent court of arbitration.— Charlotte Observer.

No more artless statement has 'ately been made than the sugges- ■ion by Donald Richberg, one of Roosevelt's Brain Trust that the Supreme Court, In reaching judg uents should let itself be guided by oublic opinion rather than by lav md. Constitution. Indeed, this proposal is more than naive; it is oositively dangerous Its adoption vould not only keep our people in constant ferment but would ruin the entire stability of the United States as a going, governmental concern. Aside from the difficulty of de erming what public opinion is a certain time—and everybody knows this is serious enough- there is the further consideration that the pub lie opinion of today is not infre­ quently the exact contrary of the public opinion of a few months a go- As an example of the speed with which popular speed can re­ verse itself it <s only necessary to look back upon a few of our presi­ dential elections. In 1929 the De mocratic Party was apparently in ruins. There were those who pre­ dicted that it never again could be a factor in national affairs Yet three years later it had complete Control of both the executive and legislative branches of the* govern­ ment. Other instances of lightning-like changes come readily to the mind. Many of the laws sponsored by President Roosevelt were at first al­ most unanimously approved, es pecially in view of their emergency character. Today the public’s at­ titude toward them is no better than luke-warm and, as in the case of the NRA1 may even be definite­ ly hostile. Hit and run legislation is bad en­ ough.- .

The Statesville Production Credit Association, which serves Alexander. Catawba, Cabarrus. Davie, Iredell and Ro wan Counties, had a very suc­ cessful year in 1936, according to re- oorts by officers of this farmers’ co­ operative organization submitted at the annual meeting of the stock­ holders held at Statesville on Feb. I At the annual meeting which was well attended, complete and detailed r !ports, illustrated by charts, wen given to. the * stockholders, showing how much business was done, bon much it cost to run the association, the distribution of expenses, the net profit and other interesting data. Members of the association warm­ ly commended the association at the conclusion of the meeting. Reports were made to the meeting by William Caldwell. Vice President of the association;. Robert A. Darr, Secretary Treasurer, and a talk on the advantage of the cooperative credit system was made b; R. A. Alexander, a member of the board of directors. William Caldwell and R. A. Alex­ ander were elected to serve on the board of directors of the association. Other members of the board. whose terms did not expire are. John R. Morrison, C. H. Gryder1 and G. L. Winters. The reports of the officers showed that the association made 1065 loans for $167,825.00 last year. Mr. H. L, Gardner. Vice President of the Productjbn Credit Corpora­ tion of Colombia,' addressed the meeting. He reviewed the remark­ able progress! which has been made by the production credit associations in the states of !North' Carolina, South' Carolina, Georgiaand Florida. The increasing number of farmers availing themselves of the credit ser­ vice which the association offer, he said, is toe best proof of their ap­ preciation of ^the service. In 1934, the first year of their operations, the associations-made loans totaling $9:000,000; in 1935 they made loans totaling $14,000,000 and in 1936 they made loans totaling nearly $16,000,- 000. ' Through the production credit as sociation. Mr. Gardner, said, the farmers are able to get money with which to produce and harvest tbeir crops at cost as low- as those avail­ able to any other industry, The as­ sociations, be said, do not lend gov­ ernment money but discount their paper through the Federal Interme­ diate Credit Bank which, in turn, se­ cures money from private investors through the sale of farm paper.

C. News Review of Current Events the World Over President Proposes Reorganization of Federal Jndieiaryy Increasing Supreme Court Justices to Fifteen—• Efforts to Settle Motor Strike. By EDWARD W. PICKARD © Western Newspaper Union. President PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT electri- * fied congress with a surprise mes­ sage proposing sweeping changes in the federal court system which would allow him to pack the Supreme Court with justices who could be expect­ed to uphold the con­stitutionality of New Deal legislation.He submitted a draft of a bill to ac­ complish this reor­ganization. It pro­vides:I. That for every federal judge with a service record of at least ten years “continuously or otherwise” who fails to resign or re­ tire within six months after reach­ ing the age of 70 the President shall appoint another judge. 2. That the number of additional Judges so appointed shall not exceed fifty, the Supreme Court being lim­ited to 15 members, appellate and special courts to two additional members each and district courts to twice the present number of judges.3. That two-thirds of the Supreme Court and three-fifths of other courts shall constitute a quorum.4. That the chief justice of the Supreme Court shall transfer circuit and district judges to jurisdictions with congested dockets in order to speedup disposition of litigation. 5. That the Supreme Court shall be empowered to appoint a proctor to supervise the conduct of business in the lower courts. The President also proposed a re­form in the injunctive process which he declared would expedite Supreme Court rulings on the constitutionality of legislation and would further in­sure “equality” and "certainty” of federal justice. He said frequent in­junctions which set aside acts of congress are “in clear violation of the principle of equity that injunc­tions should be granted only in those rare cases of manifest illegality and irreparable damage against which the ordinary course of the law offers no protection.”He asked that congress forbid any injunction or decision by any federal court touching a constitutional ques­tion without “previous and ample notice” to the attorney general to give the government an opportunity “to present evidence and be heard.” His bill proposed that any lower court decision which involved a con­stitutional question be appealed di­ rectly to the Supreme Court, where it would take immediate precedence over all other business. New Deal leadete in congress were expected to back the Presi­dent’s. proposals solidly, while it be­came apparent that the conservative Democrats might align with the solid Republican group in opposing it. The latter group saw in the bill a direct attempt to get rid of some of the older justices of the Supreme Court who have proved continual stumbling blocks for pet New Deal idcts.Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes, approaching 75, has voted sometimes to sustain, sometimes to invalidate New Deal laws. Justice VTillis Van Deventer, 78, has invari­ably opposed Nfew Deal, laws; so have James Clark McReynolds, 75; George Sutherland, 75, and Pierce Butler, 71. Louis Dembitz Brandeis, 80, has voted to sustain New Deal acts, except tin the cast of the NRA, rejected by unanimous decision. If the President is successful in putting over the proposed changes it will be the eighth time in the 148 years of the Supreme Court’s history that the number of justices has been changed. The largest number ever to sit on the bench was 10 from 1863 to 1866, and the smallest number 5 from 1801 to 1802. D ROUGHT together by Gov. u Frank Murphy at the demand of the White House, representatives of both sides in the General Motors strike were in al- m ost continuous conference seeking a way to settle the controversy. The corporation was represented by Wil­liam S. Knudsen1 executive vice pres­ ident, and John Thomas Smith of the legal staff. Act­ing for the strikers were John L. Lewis, head of the C. I. O.,John ' Brophy, its ' Homer Martin, president of United Automobile Workers. 'It was reported that at one time the conference was near, collapse. Then Governor Murphy received a message from the White House say­ing the President expected a settle­ment. / . .During an interim the governor said both sides were in.earnest and doing their best.Judge Gadola in Flint had issued an injunction ordering the sit-down William S. director, Harold Ickes strikers there to leave the plants. The sheriff served notice to the men and they jeered him. They then sent to Governor Murphy a bombastic message to the effect that they would resist eviction to the death. The mayor, city man­ager and police chief of Flint, as­serting the people were tired of strikes and violence, organized be­tween 500 and 1,000 police reserves. The police chief warned Lewis he “had better call off his strike if he doesn’t want another Herrin mas­ sacre.”A writ of attachment for forcible expulsion of the sit-down strikers was obtained by the G. M. lawyers. M ARITIME workers on the Paci­fic coast ended their long strike by accepting working agree­ments that had been negotiated in San Francisco and the 40,000 men returned to their jobs. Ships in all the ports, long idle, got up steam and prepared to resume business, and the ticket offices were thronged with passengers.Shipowners issued a statement as­serting the end of the walkout would mean a business revival for 1,000 industrial plants and 500 export of­fices up and down the coast. CECRETARY of the Hiterior Har- old Ickes and the national re­sources committee of which he is chairman have produced a public works and national water program for the next six years, and it was submit­ted to congress by ,Presidoit Roosevelt £ with the recommen- a dation that it should | be adopted. It in- I volves the expendi­ ture of five ;billion dollars and calls for lump sum annual appropriations under the regular budget for a list of ap­proved projects, and allocation of the funds to a permanent public works or development agency. As the chief part of the plan, Mr. Roosevelt presented congress with a list of some $2,750.-000,000 worth of water conservation projects, in­cluding a $116,000,000 flood-control program in the inundated Ohio and Mississippi river valleys.In his transmission message the President warned congress against considering each project as a sep­arate entity. The report, he said, “should, of course, be read in con- j Action with the recommenda­ tions for’ highways, bridges, dams, flood control, and so forth, already under construction, estimates for which have been .submitted in the budget.”“During the depression,” he told congress, “we have substantially in­creased the facilities and developed the resources of our country for the common welfare through public works and work-relief programs. "We have been compelled to un­dertake actual work somewhat hur­riedly in the emergency.“Now it is time-to develop a long- range plan and policy for construc­tion—to provide the best use of our resources and to prepare in advance against any other emergency.”The committee that drew up this program includes, besides M r . Ickes1 Secretary , of War Harry H. Woodring1 V/PA Administrator Har­ry Hopkins, Secretary of Agricul­ture Henry A. Wallace, Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins, Secretiuy of Commerce Daniel C. Roper, Frederic A. Delano, uncle iff the President, and Charles E. Merriam1 University of Chicago professor. D ESPITE the warm opposition of Democratic Senator J. W. Bail­ey of North Carolina and others, including the few Republicans, the senate passed the house deficiency relief bill carrying an appropria­tion of $948,725,868.Senator Bailey spoke in support of his amendment which would require a means test, or "pauper’s oath,” as some have called it, for states, counties, and their political subdi­visions to secure federal aid for their relief requirements. -The amendment was rejected without a record vote.Out of the total allocated In the bill for “relief and work relief,” about $650,000,000 was expected to be. given to the Works Progress Ad­ministration. From this 'fond aid will be given to victims of floods in the Ohio and Mississippi valleys. T G FINANCE for another year the social security board, vet­ erans’ administration and about thirty other federal agencies, the house appropriated one billion, for­ty-six million dollars. The bill, passed without a record vote, car­ried a last minute amendment pro­viding that none of the funds ap­propriated should be available to pay for the expenses of any con­gressional investigation.

Openly or secretly, half of the great European powers are contrib­uting to the bloody ruination, so that, when the finish comes, they’ll have spoils or dubious prestige or both and that til-fated land will be a . burying ground and a deso­lation. A follow gets to wondering why this or that government chooses for an em­blem some noble creature when the turkey blizzard or the grave-rob­bing hyena would be so appropri­ate. Fierce winters and devastating floods may be curing us here on this side of the water, but at least we have been spared the affliction of having for our next-door neigh­bors certain nations.• • • Kidnapers’ Ransoms. IT’S all well enough to pass an act making payment of ransom to a kidnaper a criminal offense— as though heartbroken parents would hesitate to pay ransoms to get their babies back, no matter what the penalty for so doing might be! And can you see any American jury convicting those parents? The au­ thor of the law is no doubt well-in­tentioned but ,there is another law, called the law of human nature, which most surely would defeat his purposes.By the way, a person who should know what he’s talking about, tells me that three out of every four known kidnapers during recent years have been ex-convicts with records as repeated offenders. So, instead of trying to penalize agonized parents for obeying a na­tural instinct, how about a snappy little law to curb certain parole boards which seem to delight in turning ’em out as fast as the courts can clap ’em in? * * • Optimism De Luxe. T LIKE the spirit of a gentleman 1 in New York who started dredg­ ing operations in East river. He set out to dig up a minimum of $4,- 800,000 in gold and stiver from the ooze, and to date has salvaged 96 cents, two rusty frying pans and a penknife—and is still probing. For gorgeous optimism I can think of but one case to match this. I was on the French Riviera one summer. They’d been shifting the railroad tracks along the Grand Comiche. This left a disused tun­nel. So, week after week, a beard­ ed gentleman sat at one mouth of the empty bore with a sign over his head reading: “This property for sale.” When I left he was stiU there, waiting for somebody who was in the market for a second­hand tunnel.... South American Explorers.A F RECENT years, those hardy v adventurers who set forth to invade the last great unexplored area, interior South America, seem to follow a regular routine, to wit, as follows:First-They start off.Second—They get lost. Third-They are rescued.But wouldn’t it save wear and tear and nervous strain if the rescue expedition went on ahead so it could get settled down in camp all nice and comfortable and be waiting for the explorers when they staggered in, exhausted from toting all those tons ; of material for foture Ifec- ture tours? The modem discover­ er is .gallant, but apparently has no more sense of direction than an egg-beater and seemingly could get lost on top of a marble-top table. Or possibly the tropic sun has an addling effect on the human brain. Anyhow, since nearly always he is in an intact state when res­cued, this would seem to indicate that the head-hunters of the Ama­zonian jungles are now getting fossy about the types of heads they collect.

COBBA Washington Digest J National Topics Interpreted Tf TfiLfs- ByWILLIAM BRUCKART NATIONAL 2RESS E l ET 0 w a S h I N GT!] Washington.—I have said in these columns .many times that politics is _ .... a business. If any-P outtet body desires proof Is Butinest of that statementI think I am able now to offer the best possible evi­dence of the truth of that statement. Lately, W. Forbes Morgan, treas­urer of the Democratic national committee, has demonstrated be­yond the shadow of a doubt what politics as a business actuallymeans. He did so in the recent an­ nouncement that the Democratic national committee would seek to build up a “war chest” of $10,000,000 that the vast New Deal party ma­chinery can go on at top speed; that the momentum gained by the suc­ cessful Presidential campaign of 1936 can be maintained and that the party can continue to function as a cohesive unit through which millions of voters may speak. It appears that Mr. Morgan wtif not succeed in getting anything like $10,000,000 together but it is very significant that he is thinking in terms so large as those mentioned in his announcement. It means sim­ply that the present control of the New Deal party is determined to carry out to the nth degree the the­ory of its chairman, James A. Far­ ley, only recently reappointed as postmaster general of the United States.Mr. Farley plays politics in ex­actly the same manner that he would engage in a business ven­ ture. He takes chances when the stakes are high, he knows his men, his workers, and moreover, he knows how to get the best results out iff the material he has. His operations are not unlike the func­tions of a sales manager of a great concern—he sells what he has to the voters and if any salesman fails to function, Mr. Farley loioks for re­placements. We might illustrate the Farley methods further by reviewing some of the methods he employed in the last four years. For, when it comes to raising money, tbe Democratic national committee, under Chair­man Farley, is both businesslike and versatile. It will be recalled how whenever the pretext arose, the Democratic national committee sponsored such things as dinners to which the faithful partisans were asked to buy tickets, usu­ ally high priced tickets, for an ordinary banquet. It will be re­called also how elaborate pro­ grams of the Democratic national convention were sold by the hun­dreds of thousands; how those pro­grams were loaded to the gunwhales with advertising of concerns that could not well refuse' to buy adver­tising space; how victory dinners were given, and how finally the in­augural ceremony when Mr. Roose­velt took office was turned into a gigantic political rally.-th&t spread itself into every hotel in Washington that had space for great dinners and dances. These things are but a few which demonstrated the Farley versatility but they prove to my mind that 'if the Democratic na­tional committee sets out to build up a real “war chest,” it will ac­complish exactly its objective. The committee set-up is the most pretentious yet attempted by any political organization. It has a large and exceedingly efficient staff of trained-men and women and it runs like the well oiled machine that it is.It will cost money to. keep that machine running at high speed, but Mr. Farley recog* nizes how elections are won. Hto philosophy to that the early bird catches the worm and so, al­though there to not another election for two years, the Democratic na­tional committee to making ready for that election campaign right now. Unless the wise political stu­dents around Washington are badly mistaken, Mr. Farley will know pretty well when the congressional and senatorial candidates take to the stump early in 1938 just what the last two years of the Roosevelt administration will be like. It goes without saying that he will be pre­pared for them. * • • In contrast to the circumstances I have just related, it must be dis-■ • heartening to wit-C- O- P. ness the feeble, al- Contrasl most futile, ef­forts that are shown around Republican headquar­ ters. Of course, old time politicians always say that a winning horse can be financed, never a loser. John D. M. Hamilton, the Republican na­ tional chairman, rode a losing horse. He camp out of the race saddled with a gigantic deficit. Defi­cits- for loring political parties are not as easily financed as United States Treasury deficits these days and so Mr. Hamilton to having ids troubles in that direction as well as finding any enthusiasm among Republican party workers.But that does not excuse the Re­publican'national committee nor Mr. Hamilton. After all, it to to be Doans P ills BeIievetheAds • # Sometimes in Uie JMtto of samples which,wheD proven worthyvthe, merchandise canbepor-rfinfH from Oltf AAiiinwmily mgfrfintigyCumtK-WNl) remembered that approximately 18,000,000 voters cast their ballots for the Republican presidential nominee, Governor Landon of Kan­sas. That to not a small number, any way you examine it. It to a powerful segment of the American population but it to powerful only to the extent that its leadership devel­ops enthusiasm for the fight and ca­pacity to take it on the chin when victory goes the other way. Among the New Dealers who can be classified as sound politicians, there is considerable regret at the failure of the Republican leadership to get going. President Roosevelt, himself, would like to see more op­position because it. would make his task much easier and would prevent some of the unsound legislation from seeping through congress on account of a lack of opposition. Fur­thermore, if there were more Re­ publican .fight, there would be less chance of splits in the Democratic ranks in congress. Democratic leaders entertain a very real fear of this possibility.I i i From among the corps of politi­cal writers in Washington, I hear _ . . . much criticism cffCriticize the Republicans R epablieant who are variouslydescribed as being "dead on their feet.” They are certainly doing less than nothing. They have allowed the Democratic national committee to carry the ball on every play; they have offered no publicity by way of criticism of New - Deal programs and they have de­ veloped no plans at all for reviving the Republican organization or re­storing life to the party workers. I am not saying that Mr. Hamil­ton to wholly to blame for this.con­dition. He must accept responsi­ bility, however, because he to the titular head of the organization. It would seem, therefore, that unless Mr. Hamilton awakens and shows some fight, there will’be fewer Re­ publicans in the house or senate after the 1938 elections than there are now. The national chairman of the Republicans, according to all discussion that ,I hear, sooner or later will have to start cooking or depart from the kitchen. Otherwise, the 18,000,000 voters which Uie Re­ publican party has as a nucleus upon which to build will become so badly disorganized, so disheartened and discouraged, that it will be im­possible to reunite them. Part of the Republicans’ difficul­ ties are traceable directly to Capi­ tol Hill. I simply cannot under­stand why Senator McNary of Ore­gon, continues to serve as Republi­ can leader in the senate when, in the opinion of most observers, he has failed to justify his title in any way. It will be recalled that he did nothing in behalf of Governor Lan- don’s candidacy against Mr. Roose­velt. Nor has he shown either the capacity or the desire to Carry ,on as an opposition leader should carry on since the new congress convened. Again, this to not the fault of Chairman Hamilton. Frankly, I think it to the fault of the few Re­publicans in the senate. If they had any fight in them, or any faith in their party label, they would insist upon a militant leadership on their side of the senate chamber, small as their number to. • • • There are much greater signs of fight among the house Republicans. They are trying otgnt o f to make them- Fight selves heard, butth e preponder­ance of Democratic strength in the house coupled with the gag rules which have been appliedwithout stint or limit by the Democratic majority, precludes Republican leader Snell and hto associates from doing very much for their party in the house. Where senators have the privilege id unlimited debate, Hoime members are allotted time and lately the time allotted to the Republicans has been infinitesimal. That, of course, to one of the spoils of victory and the Dem­ocrats cannot be -blamed for assert­ing their power.But the point of it all to that while Democratic Chairman Farley has hto team on its toes, full of fight, ready to go, Chairman Hamilten has not even been vocal personally, much less has he been able- to stir up fight among hto associates.. It to a situation from which most any­thing may emerge. Mr. Hamilton sought and was given a vote of con­fidence by hto own national com­mittee shortly after the election, He cannot say now that hto hands are tied insofar as the authority of lead­ership to concerned. So, it to made to appear that , unless the present leaders of the Republicans really enter.'the arena, unless they show their ability to carry the fight to the enemy, it seems rather likely that new leaders wifi come from the ranks of the Republicans and the present group will become has- beens.C Western NMnasswUSteL A Slip That Saves Time and Bother A well-fitted slip is the founda­tion of any adequate wardrobe, saving many an otherwise ruffled and rippled appearance.

John 13:34,PRIMARY TOPIC — A New Command­mentJUNIOR TOPIC — A Great Man's Way.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— What the New Commandment Means.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— The Measure Ot Christian Love. In the last week of our Lord's ministry on earth many important events took place, but we pass most of them in our present series of studies. The incident related in our lesson of today is of interest in and of itself, but it is of peculiar sig­ nificance because it introduces a marvelously instructive discourse of our Lord.Whatever had prompted their in­ quiry, we are delighted to note that the Greeks came with an earnest desire to see Jesus.. I. Seeking Jesns (12:20-22). A man has progressed far on the road to blessing when he makes known his desire to see Jesus. Com­ing to him means coming to the One who has the words of eternal life. Note that the disciples were wise enough to bring the men to Jesus. The true function of every Christian worker is to bring men to him. On the back of the pulpit in one of America’s greatest churches, direct­ly where the preacher can see them as he arises to preach, are the words of our lesson, “Sir, we would see Jesus." Little wonder that a strong and true gospel is preached in that church.H. Finding the Cross (w. 23-33).The reply of our Lord to the Greeks and to the disciples who brought them to him, seems a bit singular at first glance. Did he not wish to receive them? They had probably come to see the great re­ligious leader, the King of the Jews —why does he talk about death— why is his soul troubled? The words of our Lord are clear. Men do not need an example, a leader, a teacher, they need a Sav­iour. It is as a sacrifice for sin that Christ will draw all men unto himself (v. 32).We need to relearn that lesson. Leaders of the church are earnestly seeking the explanation of the rapid decline in the influence of the Chris­tian church. It is a good sign that some are beginning to realize that the difficulty is in the realm of the spiritual. The barrenness of so- called modern theology has become apparent to its leaders and they have begun to talk about a “spirit­ual revival.” But unfortunately we soon find that they use the expres­sion to stand for something entire­ ly different from a real scriptural revival. “The voice is Jacob’s voice but the hands are the hands of Esau” (Gen. 27:22). Let us make no mistake about it, a real revival will center in the cross and will manifest itself in denial of self for the glory of God.One cannot forego mention of the fact that the last part of verse 26, “If any man serve me, him will my Father honor,” was the motto of the late Dr. James M. Gray, whose life gloriously exemplified the truth of the passage. God is willing and ready to do as much for you and for me. IH. Loving One Another (John 13: 34, 35).When these words were uttered our Lord was two days further in the last week before he was cruci­ fied. He was alone with his disciples in the upper room. What message does he have for them in that sol­emn hour? That they should love one another. That is a message that needs renewed emphasis in our day. The strife which fills the world has almost engulfed the church, and there is bitterness and strife where love should reign.Let us observe carefully that it is as his disciples that we are able to love one another. There are two erroneous extremes to be avoid­ ed. First, we have the out and out conservative, who proclaims his be­lief In the Bible as God’s Word, who is anxious that he be absolutely correct in doctrine, a really saved man, and 'who then becomes the kind of “fighting” fundamentalist who dismally fails God in the testi­ mony referred to in these-verses. On the other hand we have the lib­ eral who has abandoned the scrip­tural basis of dlscipleship and who then boasts of his great love for his brethren. Love is no substitute for regeneration, and regeneration is no excuse for lack of love.- Courtesy of the Heart There is a courtesy of the heart, it is allied to love. From it springs the purest courtesy in the outward behavior.—Goethe. Duty of Gratitude Gratitude is a duty none can be excused from, because it is always at out own disposal.—Charron.

IN ADVANCE - * I OO SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - S SO Senator Brock, who represents Davie. Yadkin and Wilkes in the upper house, didn’t vote when the wet and dry issue came up in the Senate last week. He was paired with Senatoi Gravely. The groundhog hasn’t acted so bad up to this time, but there are still more' than two weeks before his six weeks is out. That Shef­ field committee have our thanks for talking nice to said hog on Feb. and The Record will neitner vote for nor support, through its columns, any man for public office, who will vote to legalize the sale of liquor in Davie county. This is not a threat nor an intimidation, but a plain statement of facts. Monday was a legal holiday—the birthday of George Washington first president of the United States The day was observed by the local bank, postoffice and rutal letter car riers. The rest of the town worked or loafed as usual. Governor Hoey promised the peo pie last year that if he were elected he would see that the voters were given an opportunity to express themselves on the liquor question in a state wide referendum, which reminds us that five years ago Pre sident Roosevelt promised, if e'ect- ed to balance the budget, put all the idle people to work, reduce government expenditures and put liquor in reach of all the people. Just how well he has succeeded in carrying out his promises, the peo­ ple know. May Get Hosiery MilL S. S.

The Re cord would be glad to see the town secure a hosiery mill; as we need a bigger payroll with more people employed. Senate Vote On Liquor.

Horrible Tragedy At Advance. Three men were killed and a fourth was injured about 10 o’clock last Tuesday morning when a steam boiler on a traction engine explod­ ed at the home of E J. Potts, near Advance. The dead are Wilev Potts. 4 0; Isem Potts, 17, a nephew of the elder man; and Walter Glenn Jar vis, 24, all residents of the neigh­ borhood where the accident occur­ red O D Zimmerman sustained minor Injury. The meu were all but blown to bits in the terrific explosjon which, it is believed, occured when the water was pumped in the boiler after the water lavel had been al­ lowed to get too low. Several people were standing a- bout the traction engine when the explosion occured and it is regatd- ed as remarkable that others were not seriously injured or killed by the tremendous blast. A large crowd gathered about the wrecked machine shortly after the accident and stated that the noise was beard for many miles. The boiler had been fired up and the crew was preparing to go to the home of Mr. Zimmerman to thresh lespedeza There was no advance warning of the impending disaster. The force of the explosion was almost incomprehensible. A large section of garden palings was pick­ ed up near the point of the blast and literally blown to splinters. The running gears of the tractor it self was stood on end by the crash, later falling across a small pick-up track which stood nearby. A jinx, it seems, has followed the community and several of the persons connected with today’s ac­ cident Twenty eight years ago. Arch Potts, father of Wiley Potts, who was killed this morning, and George Potts, his brother, were blown to pieces in a similar boiler explosion. Then, on July 3 , 1935, the trac­ tor which went to pieces today, ran down and killed John Lindsay Ward, in the same community. The threshing outfit belonged to WiIey Potts, one of the three who were killed, and Arch Potts, son of the man of the same name killed 28 years ago. Both the Zimmermans say the blast, which terrific, did not made a loud report. The Zimmermans and Cornatzer took up the broken body of Isom Potts and carried it to the hospital. Wiley Jones Potts was 42 years old. He was born in Advance, and resided there all his life. He was the sou of A. A. and Jane Hilton Potts. FOr the past 10 years be has been in the sawmill business. Survivors include his wife; three sons, Wiley Sanford. Worth and Avalon Potts; one daughter, Helen Potts; five brothers, A E . L. L, S. F , L R-, and Eugene Potts, all of Advance; two sisters. Mrs Hart- ness Spty and Mrs. Rcsa Spray, also of Advance. I Walter Gleen Jarvis was 26 years | old and was born in the Advance! community September 23, 1910, the sou of Elser Rosa Fry Jarvis. He, had resided in Advance all his life, with the exception of two years, which he spent in a CCC camp at Marion. He had been employed by Mr. Potts for some time. Survivors inciude the parents and one brother. John Frank Jarvis, of Advanee. Isom Potts was 16 years old. He is also a native of Advance, and aod had resided there all his life He is survived by his parents and several brothers and sisters Services were . held Wednesday afternoon for Walter Glenn Jarvis, 26, from,his home in Advance at 2 o’clock and from the Advance M. E. Chtirch at 2:20 o’clock. Rev. A. A Lyerly conducted the ser vices and interment was in the church graveyard.

I Services for Iceam Franklin Potts 16 , the third, victim of the tragedy,' were conducted Thursday morn ing at 10:30 o’clock from the Ad­ vance M. E. Church, with Rev. A. . A. Lverlv officiating. Interment was in the church graveyard Farmers Meeting. On Thursday, February 11, Mr. J. Alvin Propst. Cotton Assistant from the State Office in Raleigh conduct­ed two meetings concerning the 1937 Soil Convervation Program. The morning meeting was for com mitteemen and those responsible for the administration' 6 f the program in the county. At this time details of the 1937 program were discussed The afternoon meeting was for those interested in the 1937 program gen­ erally.In many respects the 1937 Soil Con­servation Program resembles the 1936 program. Persons who filled out work sheets for 1936 will not have to fill out work sheets for 1937. The cotton payment is 5c per pound on a maxinum of 35 per cent of the base acres times the yield per acre. Tiie tobacco payment is 5c per pound on a max mnm of 25 per cent of the base tobacco acreage times the yield per acre There is also a payment on genera! crop3 when such crops are grown in excess of home needs. The rate of this payment varies ac­cording to the farm.A soil conserving base will be set up for each farm. The number of acres so establised for each farm will be the number of dollars which may he earned for soil building practices. Some of the soil building practices and rates are: Seeding alfalfa. $2.50 per acres; seeding red clover $2.00 per acre; seeding crimson clover and lespedeza $1.59 per acre; Soybeans and enwpeas turned under $2.00 per acre; Rye, vetch, crimson clover and winter peas turned under draw $1.00 per acre. 40c per hundred feet is paid for terracing. These practices are only a few of which may be used in earning the soil building allow­ance and will be paid for only up to this allowance.In the near future a series of com­munity meetings will be held in the county for the purpose of discussing this program generally with persons in the different localities.R R.

(PR ug- stores B r ig h t S ta r By Mary Schumann COpyTlght bf lffterno Smith COb WNU Servieo SYNOPSIS Kerb Marsh, pretty, selfish and twenty, ar­rives home In Corinth from school and Is met by her older brother, Hugh. He drives her to the Marsh home where her widowed mother, Fluvanna, a warm-hearted, self-sacrificing and anderstanding soul, welcomes her. Keria's sis­ter, Margery, plnmp and matronly with the care of three children, is at Innch with them* Hugh's wife, Dorrie, has pleaded a previous engagement. On the way back to his job at the steel plant founded by one of bis fore­bears, Hugh passes Doe Hiller, a boyhood friend whom he no longer sees frequently be­cause of Dorrie's antipathy. Fluvanna Marsh wakens the next morning from a dream ahon* her late husband. Jim, whose unstable char­acter she fears Keria has inherited* Soon Ellen Pendleton comes over. She is an artis­tically inclined girl who is a distant niece of Fluvanna's and a favorite of Hugh's. She hap­pily tells Fluvanna she has become engaged to Jerry Purdue. Ellen fears that her hither and mother, Gavin and Lizzie, will not ap­prove the match. Hugh and Dorrie go out to the Freeland Farms to dance with their friends, Cun and Joan Whitney. Whitney, who has been out of work, announces that ire has landed a new position. They see Ellen Pendle­ton and Jerry Purdue. Cun and Dorrie dance together and then disappear for I while. Dane- ing with Joan, Hugh is amazed to find her in tears. Apparently she has some secret worry over her husband, Cun. Hugh sees Keria ac­companied by a young man. CHAPTER III—Continued They rose and floated away to the rhythm of the sentimental mu­sic. Ellen felt closer to Jerry when they danced than at any other time. They seemed so completely attuned then, step seeking step, turning instinctively in each grace­ ful movement. He was just enough taller; he gave himself to the spirit of the underlying sensuousness of the air, communicated it to her. The music ended with an in­creased tempo and a final bang. They walked to their table where the waiter had placed their des­sert. The place was filling up. There had been only eight or ten for din­ ner, but now almost every place was occupied. Across the room El­len caught the eye of Hugh Marsh, gave him a laughing salute. Dor­rie and Joan nodded to her, and Cun Whitney too. She had never met Cun, but supposed it was a pleasant informality evoked by the friendship of the others. She turned to Jerry. “That’s Hugh Marsh—you remember we called at Cousin Fluvanna’s one night? The one in green with the stunning hair is Dorrie, his wife.’’ Jerry put sugar in his coffee. “Your cousin, Hugh, is a good picker. What a profile!”“Isn’t it? Like a cameo.”“What kind of person is she?” “I never fed I know her very well. She’s not very friendly. You have the sensation she is passing judgment on you, finding you odd or amusing. It may be imagina­ tion on my part, or— ”“What?” “I think a person so beautiful creates a wall around themselves. Such a picture that you’re a-little in awe of them, wondering over the effect. Your fault, really, for you make them conscious of the ad­miration you . feel, and they’re amused by it.”Jerry nodded. “She sounds high­ nosed to me,” he pronounced brief­ly, cutting through Ellen’s strug­gling analysis. “Is Kezia like her?”“You’ll meet her soon. She wants me to take you over some night.”Just as they were leaving, Kezia came in with Arthur Williams and they met on the steps. Kezia turned cordial, radiant eyes on Jerry as she extended her hand. “Nice to know you. I’ve heard so much about you."Ellen could see that Jerry looked pleased and impressed.“El, you’re not leaving, are you?” came Kezia’s sweet ag­grieved complaint. “Do stay with us and dance—we’d have a four­some!”Arthur seconded the invitation. “Sure—a foursome. What’s the Idea of leaving new?”But Ellen pleaded another en­gagement and they took their de­parture.' Jerry helped her ceremoniously into the car. -His manners were much better than most of the men she knew, she thought with pride. If he hadn’t learned them at home, he bad picked them up from obser­vation of others. They would pass muster with her mother, Kezia— anyone. She hugged the reflection to herself with pleased content. One more point in the sum total of the graces which endeared Jer- «y-They drove down the winding drive to the main road. “I wish we had stayed,” said Jerry, re­gretfully. “Kezia—she’s charming, isn’t she? I wouldn’t have mind­ ed meeting Hugn and what’s-her- name, too. We could have had a good time.” Ellen 'Was conscious of a pang. The knowledge that she was drag­ging him away from the gay com­pany for an awkward interview with her family, made her feel guilty. “We’ll go out again some­ time,” she said quickly. As they spun along the concrete road toward town, edged with sub­urban bungalows and an occasion­al farmhouse, she wondered what would- Mother say? Any of the ter­rible things she had voiced before she left? She wouldn’t hear Jeny insulted! She would be firm on that. But how protect him from the iniquitous insul. of the look Lizzie could wear upon occasion? She had watched Fanny Plaice shrink and wither under its dis­dain -and disapproval the time Ca­leb had brought her to the house. Her mother had asked Fanny icy questions designed to disconcert her. She hadn’t come a second time, and presently Caleb had mar­ried Ena Mills. Mother shouldn’t do that to her and Jerry! She must not. Ellen’s delicate face looked almost steely in its valor as she decided that nothing would shake her determination to many Jerry.Mrs. Pendleton was evident­ly waiting for them, for she sat very erect in a torturingly stiff carved, high-backed chair. The living-room was in the full blaze of all the chandeliers. “Like a queen,” crossed Ellen’s mind in a nervous snickering instant. Mrs. Pendleton was a blond, big-boned woman, with distrustful, cold gray eyes and lips pressed dose to­ gether. She hesitated about taking Jerry’s hand, then withdrew hers quickly. Gavin Pendleton greeted them, gave short hard pulls at his mustache, then rushed out of the room, only to reappear in a mo­ ment."Ellen’s father and I were very much surprised — very,” began Mrs. Pendleton accusingly. “But knowing Ellen,” said Jer­ry, striving for lightness and ease, “knowing Ellen—you couldn’t be, could you?”“Just—what do—you mean—by that?” she spaced her word3 and fixed him with a glittering eye. This is awful, thought Ellen. Mother giving him the third degree and Father waiting for his cue to play the heavy parent. . . .“I mean that anyone should be forgiven for loving Ellen.”“Loving Ellen? . . . Mm-mm.” Gavin rushed out of the room, snapped on the lights in the dining­ room, put them out, returned.“You see,” said Gavin, brusque­ly, “we don’t know much about you.” He turned, got as far as the French doors, came back. He stood with feet apart; his hand reached for his upper lip. “Haven’t paid much attention to whom Ellen was seeing . . . gave us quite a shock tonight . . . Mother not strong . . . very bad for her . . . shock. Girls—mm—thought­ less —mm — parents — mm — consideration.”Lizzie raised her platinum­framed eye-glasses, held them at the comer. “Do I know your par­ents?” she asked insolently.Jerry colored at her tone. Ellen rushed in with: “Mother, they are Mr. and Mrs. Patd Pturdue and they’ve lived here all their lives.” 1Tve never met them.”It was slogging hopelessly. But Jerry braced himself snd came through smoothly with: “Extreme­ly nice parents—mine. Awfully fond of me and all that. I know it has come suddenly. I’m sorry that you’re not well, Mrs. Pendleton, and that it has shocked you.”“I was feeling better, hoping, ever so faintly, that I might be able to enjoy the pleasures of life again . . . and then this comes!” “But, Mother, it is nice. Some- thing to be happy about! Why do you take that dismal tone?” cried Ellen exasperated.Lizzie glared at her and drew a deep sighing breath. “I have been a martyr for years. No one knows what I have endured. Some days better—some days worse. I can never make plans like other people, never do the pleasant things I want to do. A sudden shock likethis ”Gavin disappeared from the room and came back with a cigar wrapped in cellophane which he of­fered to Jerry.Jerry took a chair nearest Liz­zie, shook his head gravely. “It must be terrible,” he' murmured. “I have an aunt who is an invalid.” Lizzie looked somewhat mollified. “It started with a sore throat, an infection in the blood stream. A very slow and dangerous disease. Few are ever cured.” She actu­ally smiled, although it. was the' slow, self-pitying smile of the in­valid who enjoys her illness. “I’ve tried every doctor here that I have any confidence in, and I’ve been to specialists in other cities. Some­ times I am helped for a time—usu­ally it is money thrown away. I manage to get about—just get about.” “Seems to me my aunt tried some kind of drinking water, a special kind.” Lizzie knitted her pale, scraggy brows. “Gavin, what was the nSme of the one I used so long?” Gavin shook his head gloomily. “Dunno.” He, also, took a chair as if the worst of the tension was over.(TO BE CONTimiEDf Goat Eats Cactus The cabretta, the half-wild goat, of Curacao, practically lives on thorny cactus.

But most of them overlook the “Hot Water War” and its leader, John Fries. Yet he was a very important figure in the early history of our nation and more particularly in 1798 when we were about to go to war with France.In order to raise money-for an army to fight this war, if it came, congress enacted a direct tax law. known as the “house tax,” —20 cents per $100 on houses valued at $200 to $500 and 30 cents on houses val­ued at $500 to $1,000 The value of the houses was determined by counting the number of windows and measuring them.In Pennsylvania especially was there resentment against this tax. When assessors went around to measure the windows on houses, the women threw open these win­dows and poured scalding water on the officials, hence the name “Hot Water War.”It was also called “Fries Rebel­lion” because the leader of resist­ance to collection of the tax was John Fries, a veteran of the Revo­lution (who had also helped sup­press the Whiskey Rebellion in Pennsylvania!) He was a traveling auctioneer and this occupation gave him a good opportunity to harangue the people and urge them to resist collection of the house tax. More than that, he raised a force of armed men who chafed assessors from township to township, forcibly released prisoners, who had been put in jail for resisting the tax col­lectors, and in general kept the eastern part of the state in an up­roar. Finally President Adams called on the governor of Pennsylvania to call out militia to suppress the riot­ers. Fries was captured and taken to Philadelphia to be tried for trea­ son. His attorneys insisted that he was answerable only to a charge of rioting, but a federal jury found him guilty of treason and he was sen­tenced to be hanged. Then Benja­min Franklin Bache, editor of the Aurora, a Republican (Democratic) paper, and bitter critic of the ad­ ministration, took up Fries’ case. He raised such a fearful row about it that it became a national issue. At last, President Adams was led to pardon Fries and after that the leader of the short-lived “Hot Wa­ter War” dropped out of sight and is lost to history. The First “Muckraker” EARLY one morning in the late 1820s a comedy was enacted on the banks of the Potomac river near Washington which is without paral­lel in American history. Enter the first character: a swimmer, sans bathing suit or any other raiment. He is no less a person than the President of the United States, for it was the custom of John Quincy Adams to go for an early-morning swim in that historic stream.Enter now the second character: ai> old woman, poorly dressed, car­rying a huge umbrella, an inkhorn and quill pen and some paper. She marches out to where .the swim­mer’s clothes lie on the bank and sits down beside them. The swim­mer sees her, hastily sits down in the water until only his head is visi­ble. “Go away! Go away!” he shouts.“Not until you answer some ques­tions, sir!” the woman replies. John Quincy Adams rages. He threatens. ' He pleads. But it’s no use.' The woman not only refuses to budge but she makes him come closer to the bank so that she can hear more plainly what he has to say. And thus Anne Royall, edi­tors of the Htuitress (appropriate name, that!) and “Grandma of the Muckrakers” forced Adams to ex­plain to her his national bank pol­icy, then the most important pub­lic question of the day. It was one of the first Presidential interviews and undoubtedly the most unusual one ever given. But that was characteristic of Anne Royall. Left a poor widow when her husband, a Revolution­ary war veteran died, Anne Royall went to Washington to claim a wid­ow’s pension. While waiting to col­lect it, she bought an old printing press, hired a printer and began publishing a small weekly newspa­per which she called the Paul Pry Journal. In it she fearlessly printed everything that she considered news, regardless of how much it embarrassed public officials. They tried to hit back at her by having her tried as a common scold, 'but John Eaton, President Jackson’s secretary, of war, fur­nished bond for her (mainly be­cause, she had been an ardent de­fender of Peggy Ekiton in the so­cial war then raging). She changed the name ot her paper to the Hunt­ ress but she didn't'change its char­acter and to the end of her days in 1854 she was a crusading journal­ist—the “first muckraker.” I5$-Price Now of Famous Cold Remedy I .

They take one or two tab­lets the first night and repeat the third or fourth night if needed.How do Calotabs help Nature throw off a cold? First, Calotabs are one of the most thorough and dependable of all intestinal etimi- nants, thus cleansing the intestinal tract of the germ-laden mucus and toxines. Second, Calotabs are diu­retic to the kidneys, promoting the elimination of cold poisons from the blood. Thus Calotabs serve the double purpose of a purgative and diuretic, both of which are needed in the treatment of colds.Calotabs are quite economical; only twenty-five cents for the fam­ily package, ten cents for the trial package.

American State*, divined the future. The prosperity and the greatness of these : United States have arisen from the free and unimpeded circulation of ideas and ■ products in the world’s greatest consumer market.The Fair gives to each State the appropriate setting and opportunity to announce : to the world its unique and indispensable contribution to America’s rich and color­ful civilization. The Fair contemplates a Hall of States, in the imposing Govern­ment group and flanking the structure which the Fair looks to the United States to build, to house the exhibits of the forty-eight States, and the Territories. Those wishing to participate more extensively will, in addition to their exhibits in the . Hall of States, either erect their own buildings or obtain space to display their ' products and attractions In one or more of the exhibit zones. The Slate of New York has naturally taken the leadarship in the participation of the sovereign S t-’as of the Federal Union. Its total appropriations for Fair purposes may excec-d $5,600,030; and the New York State World’s Fair Commis­ sion, appointed by the Governor, has been active for some time. Other States already are beginning to express enthusi­ astic interest in participating more ex­ tensively than at previous world’s fairs. The many visitors will find a fresh causa for pride and enthusiasm in the revealing exhibits of their respective States. But bnyond this, the exhibits will enable the Slates to make a persuasive presentation to ail visitors of what they have to ofior to the consumer and t- the tourist.
