The State. • Judge Heriot Clarkson sent this story to us the other day. He had read it somewhere or other iecent Iy and thought it would be of in terest to our readers if we publish ed it. Evidently others think it inter esting, too, because “ The Break fast Club” used it on one of their programs about a week ago How ever, we believe it is sufficiently a- mnsing so that our readers will want to preserve it, and that’s the reason we are publishing it here with. Did it. ever occur to you that in the usual news of a wedding, a man gets about as much attention as a delegate from a fourth-class prinici pality at a conference of nations? It just doesn’t seem right. A southern newspaper resolved to change this method. The fol lowing account of a wedding story appears in an issue of this South ern Paper about twenty-five years ago: “Mr. John Jones, son of Mr. and ^frs. Sam Jones, of Pleasant Villa, became the bridegroom of Miss Elizabeth Smith at high noon to day The ceremony took place at the home of the gtoom’s parents and a full house was counted. ‘Mr. Jones was attended by Mr. Brown .' as groomsman. As the groom approached the altar he was the cynosure of all eyes. -Blushing prettily, he replied to the questions of the clergyman in low tones but firm. “He was charmingly clad in a three-piece suit, consisting of a coat, vest and pants. The coat, of dark material,' was draped about his shoulders and tastefully gathered under the arms. A pretty story was current among the wedding guests that the coat was the same worn by his father and grandfather on their wedding days. Mr. Jones does not deny the truth of the senti mental touch. The vest was sleeve less, and met in the front. It was gracefully fa.h*oned with pockets and the back held together with a strap and buckle. Conspicuous on on the front. of the vest was the groom’s favorite piece of jewelry, a fraternity pin, and from the upper lift band corner was suspended a large Ingersol watch, the bride’s gift to the groom, which flashed and gave; the needed touch of bril liance to the costume in. perfect taste and harmony. “The groom’s pant 3 were of dark worsted and were suspended from the waiste, falling in a straight line almost. to the . floor. The curve simplicity of the garment was re lieved by the left panlet, which was caught, up about four inches by a Boston garter worn underneath, re vealing: just the artistic glimpse of brown . holeproof sox'above the genuine leather shoes, laced with strings of. the same color. The ef fect was rather chic. ‘Beneath the vest the groom wore blue gallowses, attached fore and aft to the pants and passing in a gracefui curve over each shoulder. This pretty and useful costume would have passed unnoticed had not the groom muffed the ring when the groomsman passed it to him. When he stoiped to recover the er rant circulet, the cerulean blue of the gallowses was prettily revealed “His neck was encircled with i collar characterized by a delicate pearl tint of old-fashioned celluloid and around the collar a cravat was loosely .knotted exposing a collar buttoU ^f bright material, “ The:.cravat extended up and under the left ear with that studied carelessness which makes supreme artistry lndress. “ Mr. jBrown’s costume was es sentially like ,the groom’s and as the two stood at tbel.altar a hush MICKIE SAYS— IN TWlS SHOP, WE ABE WOBKINS AaAIUST A DEAbLlME-OWE /AUST QO TO PRESS AT A CERTAIN HOUR.-'AVITCH ISWHY WE WKE TO HAVE OUR APS ANP NEWS COpy EARW, •PLEASE, FER SOSH SAKEl Native Of Davie In Indiana. William Church, manager of the Shaffner farm, jnst north of the city, recently received a letter from a re lative in Darlington, Ind., also a clip ping taken from one of the Indiana papers containing a picture and short story of Noah Brock, who recently celebrated bis 103rd birthday anni versary at his home on a farm, just out from Darlington. Mr. Brock is a native of Davie county, this state. - He went to the .western state with his parents dur ing bis boyhood days. Mr. Church has been to the home of his aged friend and says that he has a beautiful residence and is the owner of a large and valuable farm. Despite his advance years in life, he is erjoying very good health and de lights to talk about the Civil. War and the leaders of the Northern and Southern ariries." The newspaper clipping bears the beading to the article: “Noah Brock Still Enjoys Living on 103rd Natal Day.” Thewriterbasthis to say about the man who is said to be a “life long Republican,” and one can re member many of the men who have been elected head of this nation: ‘At his home two miles northeast of here, Noah Brock, Montgomery county patriarch, celebrated his 103rd birthday. His formula for longevity is to avoid worry and eat sensibly. On his anniversary he dined on a small portion of chicken livers, masbed potatoes, green beans, tomatoes and - birthday cuke. He eats rolled oats, sugared, for break- for breakfast, but without cream and drinks a cup of black coffee. For supper he has bread and butter, a glass of milk and cookies. He says for the next several weeks he’ll eat tomatoeB twice a day. “ Mr. Brock would prefer not to retire until 9 o’clock; but his house keeper wants him in bed by 8 , so be humors her. Heis well versed on national problems of the day, read ing the daily papers — frequently without his glasses. ‘President Roosevelt is all right,’ he said yester day, ‘but he’s bad if (office) long en ough.’ He added, *$75,000 is too much to pay a fisherman.’ ’’-Twin- City Sentinel. of admiration enveloped the. audi ence’at the altar a hush of admira tion enveloped the audience at the complete and wonderful harmony of the raiment.

Politics In Yadkin. Editor W. E. Rutledge, of the Yadkin Ripple, declares In an edi torial in the last issue of his news paper that the Democrats, through the conviction of D. Holcomb of violation of election laws have lost all the glory that they might have gained in the last election, and then at some length discusses the politi cal situation there as follows: Whatever glory the Democratsof Yadkin county received from their partial victory in the county last November, that glory has been overshadowed by the deeds of one of their own members, as evidenced by the conviction of D. Halcomb here last week for violation of the election laws, to-w.'t; attempting to steal or destroy ballots. His act has been a dark shadow over them since that nigbt when the news spread of Holcomb's act; the ver dict of the jury findiug him guilty makes it darker. To the liberty loving, free voting people of Yad- kiu county, this act will be a mark for which the Democratic party will have to answer in the years to come; in fact outlive. That act was a blackout of a white and clean election record in Yadkin county tor scores of years on the part of all parties. Many times this paper has spoken of the clean political record of both par ties in Yadkin before this happen. We hope such a thing never hap pens again in our fair county. The Democratic party in Yadkin, especially the Kelly - Woodhouse combine which has given Yadkin Republxans the jitters since the last election, (maybe that’s where this jitterbug business staited) has had three bard licks on the chin in a row. First, Judge Ervin took them for a buggy ride, when be set aside tueir Janesville school elec tion case; next they took a bard blow in the neck when Judge Arm strong took up the Yadkin jail case and took them for a buggy ride they will not soon forget. Then came the Holcomb case. That was someth’ng that seldom happens, the conviction of anybody in election cases. Next in line for attack is the Yadkin county criminal court, set up here in the night time by spei cial meeting of the Democratic board of commissiens in less than two hours after the time expired ed for appealing the jail case. Every normal person conversant with Yadkin politics and their jig. jagging maneuvers, knew at the time why it was done—to keep the jail clear of prisoners and prevent the sheriff or his deputies from re ceiving certain pay in keeping the jail. The law establishing the county court was passed this year. Why did they wait until the jail was returned to the the sheriff to set it up? Not a single Republican in Yadkin county would do such a deed as that. Sucbbighhanded actiou as the present combine has resorted to this year does not meet the approval of Republicans or fairminded Demo crats.. M anyoftheir actions were unknown until J. Wade Shore, member of the board of commis sioners, testified in the High Point dam case. Mr. Shore was tangled simewbat but he did tell about se* cret meetings of the 1 board of com missioners; and also said that at these secret meetings no record was made. He told how they cut the salaries of Republicans and raised those of Democrats’-in certain in stances. ■ , Land potter* at tint office.

FSA Makes Loans For Winter Coyer Crops. Farm lauds of the South will be under wraps this winter as never before, according to Mr. J. N. Stewart, FSA Couatv Supervisor. The Farm Security Administra tion is helping eligible low income farmer; to secure loans to pay. for seed and fertilizer for winter cover crops, be pointed out.. TbeseToans are made on the basis of sound farm- and home management plans ■ pre pared by the farmer with the as sistance of the FSA Supervisors. , “No practical farmer denies -the fact that winter-cover crops are im portant- and should be grown on most farms, “Mr. Stewart said. "These crops have many advant ages. In the first place they sup ply' a badly needed source of fall and .spring pasture and in some cases winter pasture. In the se coud place, tbevprovide a cover to prevent washing andTeaching dur ing the winter season when the land otherwise would be bare.” He added that State Agricultural Experiment Stations have shown that land allowed to remain bate during, the winter may lose the equivalent of 300 pounds of nitrate soda per acre during the winter sea son.. This represent a real money loss in soil fertility and plant food as well as a great loss of soil and organtic matter. Some of the most appropriate winter crops are; crimson clover, vetch, and in . some sections Aus- train winter peas, all of which are leguminous, and wheat, oats, bar ley,, and rye which are non Iegu minous but may: supply gain as well as serve as a winter cover crop and furnish fall, winter and spring grazing. -Farmers is need of financing for their farming:; operations on ' the purchasing of. livestock and equip ment and desiring, information on growing of winter cover Crops should see the local Farm Security Administration'Supervisor, I.

(The Statesville Daily) Paul Leonard has made good -his assertion that be would carry his sales tax flgbt to the United States Supreme Court. As curious as it may seem it costs money to get final and unassailable juitice, as it- is handed out by the highest tribunal of the land, but from here and there in little driblets, often from those who have little faith in the out come, Paul has manager to get To gether the necessary dollars, hud now the Supreme Justice must say whether they will hear the case or not. The prospects that the court will review the case seem brighter since California presents a parallel cause to the court. Anything that af fects two important sectors of ;tbe nation itself, will make it mighty hard for this Couit ta claim that :it is too busy with other more import ant matters. Tbe California Supreme Court has invalidated the sales tax in that state on the grounds that it is un constitutional to make one citizen (the merchant) responsible for tax es supposed to be paid by another (the merchant’s customer.) The State of California, reluctant to lose an important source of revenue, ap peals to the Federal courts for re lief. That reverses the order in North Carolina where Leonard has lost every round in the State courts, but it gives ad.led reason why the Higbestcourtin the land should take time to set’Ie The ma ter. ' ' We don’t know the littlest thing about constitutional law or the tech nical merits of this issue, but we a-e betting that there will be a new willingness to take the burden' of collecting, without remuneration, from the shoulders of the merch ants, and if that eventuates, the merchants will have Paul Leonard to thank. You’re probally remembering that Commissioner Maxwell, through his revenue department, is sued certain warnings with July I, as the deadline. But you ve had nothing to indicate action. Could it be that Mr. Maxwell is not en tirely sure of himself? Jeffersonian Wisdom. In view of President Roosevelt’s temperament, his gloating that he has achieved his Supremo court ob jectives. altho a determined opposi tion in Congress prevented him from mangling the Constitution in the pro cess, is fully understandable. In his moment of exultation, how ever, the President’ will do well not to forget what Jefferson once said: “Our peculiar security is in the possession of a written Constitution; Let us not make it a blank paper .by construction.” —Ex.-______' ?

PARTON VTEW YORK--Mahatma Ghandi ’ has indicated that, in his opin ion, a world war against Adolf Hit ler would be justifiable and possibly necessary. The Understudy of British, with Gandhi Calms their impera- TowardBritish «ve job of keep..VWUf u their great Indian empire in hand, probably aren’t worrying about Gandhi. More important is the attitude and activ ity of his vigorous and popular un derstudy, the 44-year-old Pandit Jawahharial Nehru. The latter has been boldly resistant to British rule, spent six years in jail, and has ac qu ired popularity and leadership as .Gandhi reaches his seventy-second year. Meager news reports from In dia indicate that Nehru has been calming down in his agi tation against British imperial ism, and that, a few weeks ago, he was vehemently denouncing fascism and the new German aggression. London is re assured, but watchful, as Asia may become a balance of power in the clash of world dominions and Nehru has been an active propagandist of pan-Asiatic doc trine, summoning browns and blacks to resist what he believes to be the aggression of the whites. Born of a noble caste, Nehru was educated at Harrow and Cambridge, taking honors in the classics. His father, the Pandit Motilal Nehru, was a lawyer and the richest man in Allahabad. He gave away his mansion and moved into a shabby little house when he became a con vert to Indian nationalism. His son, reared In splendor, had no such ideas when he came ..home from England. He was a strong'supporter of the British regime until the Amritsar mas sacre of. 1919. Then he burned his 50 British suits, donned na- - 'five dress, and became an agi- v tator for the Nationalist cause. v’: However, he was no devotee of '’" loin-cloth asceticism. He was all for fighting and it was as the most helligerent of ail the In dian leaders that he came to ^ thfe presidency of the all-Indian ' "Congress in 1935. Nehru was at times sharply op posed to the non-resisting Gandhi, but apparently their differences have been resolved. He is hand some and engaging, a vigorous as sailant of the ancient caste system of India. IT WAS not until a year ago that Romain Rolland returned to France, after more than- 20 years’ exile in Switzerland. He had op- _ . . . . posed war. Sev- LatnplighteT eral years be SeesHopeOtdy fore he finished In 'Inner Lightr £ * “ , “ had called him “The Conscience of Europe.” He is a pallid old man now,' with thinning hair and sad, deep-set eyes, but still “above the battle” and still trying to arouse the conscience of mankind. He dispatched to the New York international congress of the Amer ican Musicological society a mes sage of good will. It is quoted here in. accord with this department’s wartime alertness to_such men and messages. He says: “In the field of art, there is . not—there should not be—any rivalry among nations. The only combat worthy of us is that which is waged in every coun try and at every hour, between - culture and ignorance, between light and chaos. Let us save all - the light that can be saved. There is . none more refulgent than music. It is the sun of the inner universe.” It was this sun that illumined “Jean Christophe,” one of the great est books of all tim es, published here just before the World war, profound ly moving to multitudes of Ameri cans as an avocation of the creative and aspiring spirit of man. Many times in recent years, Romain Rol- Iand has written that the world had little hope of escaping another and possibly last devastating war. But, described as “an old man, broken and despairing,” on his return to France last year, he has contin ued his plea for peace, decrying hatred, pleading for understand ing. His has been a lone voice, never identified with “move ments,” or political groupings, right or left/ He opposed Henri Barbusse and his Clarte group, and the various “united fronts,” as he did the leaders, of violent reaction on the right. He was educated in music at the Ecole Normale, became a devotee of Wagner and then of Tolstoi and Shakespeare. He is the evangel of the humane spirit in a day when it is hard pressed.

T h e v e r y profitable foreign m arket for pictures is out now , of course (it’s said that M etro m ight have m ade tw o m illion dol lars on “Gone With the Wind” alone). So the picture-makers are going to economize. , Then there are the foreign-born stars to consider. Samuel Goldwyn decided not to go ahead with “Raf fles” because David Niven might be called back to England. Victor McLaglen, Ray Milland and George Brent have all become American citizens; McLaglen got his final papers years ago. Herbert Wilcox and Anna Neagle departed for England, Mr. Wilcox announcing that, because of the war, he would postpone making his pro posed picture about Bonnie Prince Charlie. Robert Montgomery had to cancel making plans for working hi “Busman’s Holiday” in England and started for home. Maureen O’Sullivan also had to. turn right around and start back to America again, instead of making’ the pic ture for which she’d gone abroad. If Carole Lombard had to have appendicitis she certainly picked a convenient time for it. Of course, production on “Vigil in the Night” was held up. But it gave Brian Aheme time to marry Joan Fon taine—incidentally, they had one of »*■«.. Iife^ ,o J CAROLE LOMBARD Hollywood’s few church weddings —and afforded Miss Lombard an opportunity to study nurses and hos pital procedure at first hand. Of course, in “Vigil of the Night" she plays an English nurse, but the experience was a help anyway. The government requested that release dates on two pictures be advanced. They are “Thunder Afloat,” a tale based on the defense of the American coast against sub marines during the last war, with Wallace Beery and Chester Morris, and “Twenty Thousand Men,” an aviation picture full of thrills which it cost a small fortune to stage. Phil Baker had miniature repro ductions of his accordion made for the charm bracelets of some of his friends. A manufacturer is respon sible for launching on a defenseless public one of the most unattractive dolls that it has ever been our fate to see; it’s a “Baby Snooks” doll, but we’d say that Fannie Brice had material for a libel suit, if it’s sup posed to look like her.

Pull the Trigger on Lazy Bowels, and Also Pepsin-ize Stomach! When constipation brings on acid indigestion, bloating, dizzy spells, gas, coated tongue, sour taste, and bad breath, your stomach is probably loaded up with cer tain undigested food and your bowels don’t move. So you need both Pepsin to help break up fast that rich undigested food in your stomach, and Laxative Senna to pull the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be sure your laxative also contains Pepsin. Take Dr. Caldwell's Laxative, because its Syrup Pepsin helps you gain that wonderful stomach-relief, while the Laxative Senna moves your bowels. Tests prove the power of Pepsin to dissolve those lumps of undigested protein food which may linger in your stomach, to cause belching, gastric acidity and nausea. This is how pepsin- izing your stomach helps relieve it of such distress. At the same time this medicine wakes up lazy nerves and muscles in your bowels to relieve your constipation. So see how much better you feel by taking the laxative that also puts Pepsin to work on that stomach discomfort, too. Even finicky children love to taste this pleasant family laxative.

By MARION BROWN FIELD T» ETTY, aged 11, was in the kitch- u en washing the dinner dishes while her father and some relatives were visiting in the breakfast room adjoining. Betty often “did” the dishes alone. She now proceeded methodically to stack them as she had been taught to do. Then she prepared the soapy dishwater and placed a second pan to rinse the dishes in. AU the time, however, one ear was straying toward the pleasant conversation nearby. Moth er was across the hall putting the last stitches on a dress Betty was to wear on the morrow;'^ and the lit tle girl was dawdling in order to enjoy the chat Daddy was having with the “company.” Suddenly, Betty breathed a pro longed, “Oh—!” Daddy’s head appeared, in the kitchen doorway! “Break some thing?” he inquired. “The hot water did!” explained Betty replacing a tea kettle Jof hot water on the stove. The guests in the breakfast room smiled at the explanation. But Bet ty bravely held up a cracked tum bler. - “Too bad,” said Daddy sympa thetically. “I’d better go and tell Mother.” Betty marched gravely out of the kitchen. “I’d give anything if my..boy,. George, would own up whgn some thing like that happens,” remarked Cousin Harriet. “I scold him and scold him, but it doesn’t seem to make any impression.” “H’m,” said her husband, “it makes him afraid to confess.” Betty, back in the kitchen, ap proached the breakfast room door, holding the cracked tumbler. She smiled at her father. “Mother says I must be sure to have the rinsing water cool enough to put my finger in. But she says not to worry about this particular glass, because it was a cheap one.” Betty resumed her dishwashing humming softly to her self. “Well, it’s a sort of habit, I think,” her father said in an undertone to his relatives, "this ‘fessing up,’ but Betty’s mother never makes it hard for a child to tell her anything. She says, confidence is the one thing she wants from the children. And we find that they themselves are as regretful over a mistake or an acci dent as we are. We simply talk it over and sometimes, not too often, use it as a basis for :a . future re‘- minder to avoid repetition. Honesty Is Natural for Ted. “When we gave Ted his new bi cycle I-told him to be careful where he parked it—not to leave it long in unfamiliar surroundings. He was pretty careful the first month. Then he forgot one day and left his wheel in a vacant lot down near the rail road tracks, while he pitched an impromptu ball game.” . s “And it was stolen?” inquired:. Cousin Harriet. “No; when he went for it, appar ently it was all right. Then he dis covered about half a dozen of the parts were gone!” . " '.. “Well,” said Cousin Harriet’s hus band, “I expect he didn’t relish tell ing you!” “No,” said Ted’s father with a laugh, “he didn’t. He commenced, though, by saying, ‘You were right, Dad, about my bike.’ ” “It’s expensive,” complained Cousin Harriet, “the things these youngsters do; I would whip George if he disobeyed me like that!” Ted’s father shook bis head. “That’s out of date, Harriet. I said to Ted, ‘What happened, Son?’ He then told me just what had happened and what was missing. Well, I told him it was his job to earn .back those missing parts. “ T ve been thinking it over, Dad,’ he said, 'so I asked Mrs. Clark, down the street, if I could mow her lawn, and she said she would like to have her car cleaned. It’B be every two weeks, Rad!’ ” “To have to work for something, like that, will make a man of him!” approved Cousin Harriet's husband. “We must go.” Cousin -Harriet arose. Betty hurried from the kitchen and soon returned. “Mother wants you to see my new dress!” she said. Cousin Harriet looked around the kitchen. It was unmistakably in or der. “Your wife must take a lot of time and trouble training the chil dren.” She sighed.Betty’s father - hesitated. How much dared he say? “Well, an 'ounce of prevention—’ " he ven tured. “But after all, children are people—they are seldom intentional miscreants—that is if you treat them as if you expected them to be re sponsible.—If you—well—take it for granted, you know.”National Kindergaxten Assodatioo wa IWNU Service.)

Lucky, indeed, is the homemaker who has among her treasured reci pes Aunt Martha’s “receipt” for soft molasses cookies, Mother’s rule for old-fashioned apple pan dowdy, or grandmother’s instructions for mak ing home-baked beans. Those old, favorite recipes are the mainstay of many a tempting meal. Each one of us has our own prized collection of just such recipes—some old, some new, but all of them tried and approved by a critical family.

When you’re a “seasoned” or ex perienced cook you may take lib erties with a recipe or with direc tions, but if you’re a beginner, or if you’re trying a new dish for the first time, it’s better to stick to a proven recipe and the accurate measurements it calls for.

THE INFANCY OF JESUS LESSON TEXT—Matthew 2:13*23. GOLDEN TEXT—And they shall can his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted Is. God with us.—Matthew 1:23. ' Looking forward to an experience in life which promises to be both in teresting and profitable always brings a glow of expectation. Some thing of that spirit should pervade the Bible schools of our land as they begin a six-months study in the Gospel of Matthew. Consideration of our Lord’s life properly starts with the story of His birth, but we reserve that for our Christmas lesson. Today we stress the manner in which the Child Je sus was received into the world. Men then as now, were either for Him or against Him. God had only one attitude, that of loving protec tion and preparation of His Son for His ministry. I. Christ in the World of Men. The world of today is far differ ent from that of the first century, but the difference is all on the out side. Almost breath taking have, been the developments of modern civilization, but these have not changed the heart of man. He still fears and hates and fights and sins. His attitude toward Christ is un changed. There are still only two classes of people in the world—those who have received Christ and are saved, and those who have rejected Him and are lost. 1. Against Christ. - How do men show their rejection of God’s Son? Just as they did at His birth, by: a. Fear. Herod was afraid, lest the coming of this one should result in the loss of his ill- gotten gains. His anger and fear made all Jerusalem afraid, b. In difference. When the Wise Men asked where Christ was to be bom, the priests and scribes knew exactly where to find the facts in the Holy Scriptures, but having done so, they relapsed into utter indifference. They had no interest in the fulfill ment of the prophecy, c. Hatred. Herod poured out the violence of his heart by killing the first-born. He was the first of many who have raged against the Christ in futile anger, d. Sorrow. The tears of the mothers of Jerusalem but foreshadowed the weeping and wailing which charac terizes Christ-rejection both in time and eternity. 2. For Christ. Thanks be to God, there were those in that day who were for Christ and, like those who follow Him to day, they showed: a. Spirituality. Men have marveled that the Magi knew of the birth of Christ. They must have studied the prophecies of the Word and been responsive to the teaching and moving of the Holy Spirit. Can w e-say as muq|i for ourselves? b. Interest. Not content to know and to marvel. they shamed the priests of Israel by their per sistent interest in this great thing which had come to .pass. c. Love. They brought themselves in worship and they brought rich gifts from their treasures. You can give with out loving, but you cannot love with out giving, d. Action. .They came. They persisted until they found the Christ. Then they listened to God and protected His Son by not re turning to Herod. H. Christ Ui God’s World. Men had brought sin and ruin into the world. They had rejected Hia Son, but God still ruled and we see Him protecting, preparing, and ful filling prophecy through His Son. I. Protecting. Men may hate and seek to destroy God’s Sok Satan may inspire them with ingenuity and ,cunning, but see how the Eternal One speaks to Joseph in dreams, how He prepares a place of refuge in Egypt and ultimately in Naza reth, where the boy Jesus, may in crease in wisdom and stature and favor with God and man.' . 2. Preparing. God knows of the days of ,public ministry which are ahead and above all, of that day when on !Golgotha’s hill Christ was, in His own body, to prepare salva tion for you and for me. God is not taken by surprise. He moves for ward to the completion of His plan with the stately tread of eternity. 3. Fulfilling. God also sees to it that prophecy is fulfilled. We read in verses 15 and 23, "that it might be fulfilled” and in verse 17, “then was fulfilled.” God’s Word is always sure, for He makes it so. His in finite and eternal faithfulness guar antees the fulfillment of every proph ecy, yes, and of every promise of His Holy Word. Progress of Mankind In my youth, looking at this man and that, I marvelled that humanity had made so little progress. Now, looking at man in the multitude, I marvel that they have advanced so far.—George Gissing. No Love Withont Service It is as impossible for love to thrive without service as for a plant to grow without soil. Love feeds on what we give, not on what we get. C ollege G lassies in Sports, Classroom, Dress-Up Clothes B y CH ERIE NICHOLAS •v*/\ TT IS intensely interesting to note * the comradeship, the spirit _ of mutual endeavor and co-operation that exists these days between mer chantman, designer and the college girl as to the planning of a program of clothes that must be practical first of all, at the same time they must date smartly for the varied types of activities that crowd the Iffe of Miss Modern. It was a happy inspiration that moved merchandiser and style cre ator to call into consultation groups of typical college girls, to take these young people into partnership, so to speak, in their efforts to assemble wardrobes of smart apparel that would meet the demands of every occasion ih a thoroughly practical sense as well as a highly fashion- correct way. In the illustration we are showing three apparel choices of a typical college girl who considers Uiese clothes classics as indispensable for her alma mater. To be sure they simply represent the initial numbers that lay the foundation of a well organized wardrobe. Centered in the picture Miss Col legiate is property attired in a twin sweater set topping a circular plaid skirt plus the inevitable common- sense oxfords. And here’s some thing about plaids to keep in mind, you can’t wear ’em too bright this season, the more red in their color scheme the better. To the right in the picture this fair co-ed is wearing a skirt and sweater combination topped by a classic water-proofed clan plaid coai with gabardine lining. Her sports hat of felt is a perfect college-girl type. She wears the typical saddle oxfords and wool ankle sox. Have your sox initialed is fashion’s latest message. You can know that the coat here pictured will attend foot ball games this fall, which was in the mind of the designer who styled it with an idea for warmth and com fort as well as good "looks.” This coat is likewise the type that will go to town often, will stand the test of motoring and prove a friend in deed throughout wind, rain, sun shine and the vagaries of weather that mark autumn and winter days. Miss College Girl’s choice to wear on a date with her best beau is a trim, very smart, very practical outfit in black as illustrated to the left in the group. Her crepe frock has the pinched-in waistline such as fashion demands this season; also the new back fullness. In her trunk she has tucked away one of the new detachable bustle bows which she wears now and then to. add an extra note of chic to her frock. Her felt beret (small, it won’t slip out of pose in dancing) has the new for ward tilt and she brightens the whole with a flamboyant necklace and matching bracelet set in eye- thrilling colored- stones. Not that choice must be restricted to a black dress with massive ; gold and colorful stone-set jewelry .for keeping dress-up dates. To be sure Uie big idea is .black for your autumn “first,” but the gorgeous colors on the way are simply breath taking. The new wopL dresses and the very chic andjfetcjiing. velveteen dresses make striking,’ color their theme. ■ (Released by Western Newspaper Unlosul Jeweled B uttons f t l-m ' Elegance is the keynote to fash ions this fall and winter. Feminine whims and fancies add infinite charm to the mode. Seeing that we have gone back to the gay nine ties for much of our inspiration it was inevitable that the vogue tor big glittering jeweled buttons should be . revived. And here they are glorifying the bolero suit of char treuse wool crepe as here pictured. The jeweled buttons of amethyst and gold are matched with a lapel ornament. 1 Mesh Evening Scarf You can feel yourself a dashing jenorita this summer if you wear one of the new white mesh scarfs wrapped Spanish style about you with your cotton evening dresses. G lacier W hite Is v Latest Lace T int Glacier white, which has a pale bluish cast, was one of Patou’s favorite colors for evening gowns in the -most recent Paris showings, while Molyneux showed a vivid bright shade of blue. Molyneux not only did the new pencil-slim silhouette in- lace, but made, quite a sensation with his double-swing skirts for dance frocks, which .were often ankle length. One of these in black lace had three flounces at the hem, with a deep square decol- letage at the back edged with three ruffles. Another gown in the full- skirted group was in black net with a lace top. In a gown by Patou with long, slim lines, fullness in.tfie back was achieved by means of/ godets, and the effect was quite sophisticated in lace over a silver princess slip.

It is only two weeks from tomor row until the Davie County Fair will open. There is not much time left in which to gtt your exhibits Teady for this big event. If the farmers, merchants and professional men will get behind this fair we can make it the biggest and best fair ever held In Davie county. W e hope that every family in the county will at least spend one day at the fair this fall. Don’t let it be said that you didn't attend your own fair. It is a long time until the June primary, but we understand that there are two or three persons who are willing to make the sacrifice acd accept the nomination for Re gister of Deeds in this county. Only a part of the county ol&ces aTe to be filled next year, as the Sheriff and Clerk hold a four year term. Three county commissioners, a Re gister of Deed?, Coroner, Surveyor, Representative and State Senator will be elected. We believe this is Yadkin county's time to name the Senator. Twenty-two years ago this coun try got tangled up in the biggest war this world lias ej?er known. W e wect into a war that was said would end all wars, and that would make the world safe for democracy. About all we got out of that war was 66,000 dead boys, over six hundred thousand y^ung men crip pled or maimed for life; a twenty billion dollar debt, with all of Europe owing us and but fe<v of them ever paying us a peuny back for money and provisions furnished them.- In our opinion the people in this countty have had all the war they want for a long time to come. Seems like a good many Davie county people are interested in the Townsend old «ge pension plan. The Townsend Club here is said to have more than 50 members. It we get the information correct, all persons over 60 years of age, will be given a pension of about $75 per month, when the organization gets through congress. The money to pay -these pensions will be raised bv levving a 2 per cent, tax on all business done in the United States There are supposed to be about 10 ,* 000,000 men and women in this country who will be eligible to draw this pension. The money is to be kept in circulation, as all per sons who draw this pension must spend the full amount each month. F ailu retod oso means that your pay wfll be cut off. You 1 an spend this money for-anything except in: toxicating liquors, if we have been correctly informed. It is hoped to get this pension' plan in operation within the next couple of years, it Is said.

E H S I a n a U I E S T BY TALBOT MUNDY O TALBOT MUNDY—WNU SERVICE CHAPTER IX—Continued —10 — Norwood thought a minute. “If Rundhfa should be planning a coup of some kind, don’t you think he’d be cunning enough to kick up a smoke screen?” “Rundhia is more impetuous than cunning,” the Resident answered. Norwood thought again, scowling, for half a minute. Then: “D’you think he’s sufficiently im-- petuous to try to kill several birds with one stone?” “He might be. He’s an impatient fellow—not at all good at waiting for what he makes up his mind that he wants.” “If he could prejudice the case against the priests, by accusing them of having bribed me. And if he could break me for taking a bribe. And break you for knowing about it but doing nothing—there woidd be a scandal that might dis tract attention from whatever else he might be doing at the moment.” “I concede that,” said the Resi dent. “But if I report you as charged with having accepted a bribe, can you disprove it? If you could identify the Brahmin who, you say, put those diamonds into your pocket without your knowledge, he would say on the witness stand that you had demanded a bribe, and that he saw some unknown person hand it to you. How can you prove you didn’t know those diamonds were in your pocket? Can you?” “No,” said Norwood. “Stay away from the palace. Bet ter wait until Rundhia makes the first move.” “You don’t believe in taking bulls by the horns?” “Norwood, I had a premonition the moment you arrived, that that red hair of yours would set fire to things. We’re in a fine mess. It’s either you or Rundhia. It breaks you, if he can make his accusations good1. Witnesses come cheap in Ka- dur. He could hire them by the dozen. But if he fails to make it good, I think I can guarantee you it shall break him.” ‘‘Hardly fair to me, is it, to com- pel me to sit still and be shot at?” “What do you suggest?” "First, Fll write that statement. Thpn I’d like to have a talk with Mbs Lynn Harding.” CHAPTER X Moses Lafayette O’Leary, with a cigar in his teeth, wearing a dean striped shirt and a snow-white solar topee, strolled along the widest street of the bazaar; it was about fourteen feet wide, lined on either hand by rows of open shops in which bunnias sat cross-legged and ad mired the gracious ways of God, who brings business to people who wait patiently. A sacred bull, abominably fat from plundering the sacks of grain in front of the corn-chandlers’ shops, blocked O’Leary’s way. He kicked the brute. It bellowed with rage and plunged into a Cheap Jack shop, upsetting tables and trays. The Cheap Jack and his family abused O’Leary instead of the bull, but O’Leary took no notice of such a trifle as that, beyond tilting the topee a bit further over his right eye. He was using his left eye. He had spot* ted Noor Mahlam lurking in a door way, and he knew Noor Mahlam waited for him; he looked as if he had .been waiting a long time, ex hausting nearly all the philosophy from behind that serenely wrinkled forehead. “Wipe your spectacles," said Moses. “Don’t you recognize me?” Noor Mahlam began to answer in the vernacular. Moses interrupted: “Speak English. U you’ve busi ness with me, I don’t want it known all over the bazaar. Where’s that three hundred rupees you promised me?" easy man to deal with. Here, now or never.” Noor Mahlam’s attitude changed subtly. His almost invisible mouth grimaced into a smile behind the hair that usually masked revelation: “Ah, sahib! If it were only you that we must deal with. You we could count on. You we could trust. Your intelligence is such that we could safely pay you in advance and confidently count upon your tes timony.” “You can cut the fat off the ham,” said Moses. “Trot out the meat. What do you want that’s worth a thousand rupees of anybody’s mon ey? It ain’t your money.” “Sahib, Miss Harding saw a cer tain person drop from his pocket a packet containing diamonds of great value.” “Easy!” said O’Leary. “Easy. Now I get you! You and I can do business. You’re a sensible man. The blokes who selected you to prop osition me picked a winner, they did. Sure. You pay me a thousand rupees; and all I’ve got to do is to get a haircut and borrow an offi cer’s uniform, and go and make love to the gal. That’s simple. She’ll fall head over heels in love with me as sure as my name’s Moses. Then all I’ve got to do is teach the lady how to get a British officer in trou- l\v Norwood’s voice startled her. ble. Oh, it’s crafty! Come on, hand over your thousand rupees." “But, sahib, listen to me.” “No. My ears are too full o’ your wisdom. They won’t hold any more. D’you notice the toe o’ my boot? It’s just been cobbled. It’s bard. It’s going to land right in your stomach if you waste any more o' my time. Who’s that bloke watching you?” Noor Mahlam turned, stared, blinked and shook his head: .“I don’t know who he is," he answered. “But I have been told that it is very dangerous to know too much and to refuse generous offers of payment for a very simple little thing that a man of your talents can easily do." . “What do you want me to dot” “Invent an excuse to speak to Miss Lynn Harding. Tell her that a reward has been offered for a lost packet of diamonds, which are said to have been dropped by someone near the palace guesthouse veran da. Should you say it subtly, she will answer innocently. She will tell you what she saw. If you should take a witness with you—” “Sergeant Stoddart, for in stance?” “Yes, the sergeant would do per fectly. Then Aere would be two reliable witnesses to what she said, and she would not retract. There would be a thousand rupees for you.” “And Captain Norwood?” “That will be his business. It is unfortunate but—” “I’m a halfbreed, I am,” Moses answered, “and I’m a sinner, if you know what that means.' I could use that thousand rupees. But I’d rath er go to hell for pulling out your tongue by the roots than for fram ing my offioer.. He has his faults, but he’s a gentleman and I’ve kep’ him out o’ trouble for thirteen years. Go and tell that to the Brahmins. Scram!” Noor Mahlam smiled again. “There are means," he remarked, “for compelling silence.” “Yeah, I know,” said Moses. “You signal that bloke in the red turban, and he sticks a knife in my back. FU give him the signal and let’s see what happens. Here goes!" Somewhere Moses had learned soccer, and learned it well. His right’ toe landed accurately on tlie bulge of Noor Mahlam’s belly and almost buried itself. Moses right fist moved eight inches like a pis ton. A hook to the jaw staggered Noor Mahlam backwards into a dark doorway,-' W h ere'he lay writhing. There was no need, to waste any more attention on Noor Mahlam. But the man in a red turban, who had been watching the conversation, made a signal. A constable, who had been loitering through the ba zaar, abruptly turned his back and walked away. The man in the red turban rushed at Moses, not show ing his knife until he was almost within stabbing distance. But his tempo was wrong. Perhaps he nev er learned soccer. Certainly he had never learned boxing; he carried his chin much too far forward. • It was an absolutely perfect target for Moses’ toe, which very nearly broke from the impact. The man in the red turban dropped without a groan, motionless, stunned. Moses picked up his knife, wiped it carefully, smelt the blade and ran his thumb gently along the edge. A very dirty looking person in a huge soiled white turban and ragged clothing emerged from a doorway and grinned at Moses. Moses handed him the knife: “Khabardar hona! Zahr!—Watch out. That thing’s poisoned. I can smell it. See here now: I’m off to the cock-fights—after that, a woman —I don’t know yet which woman, but she’ll be a tiger-cat, so stand by. There’ll be others laying for me. Use that knife if you have to. I’ve got to dig to the bottom of this.” Norwood cantered from the Resi dency toward the guesthouse; to have galloped would have been a bit too noticeable. Even so, he was delayed, near the end of the street that leads toward the teeming sec tion of the city. Moses O’Leary stood there watching for him. He looked filthy, and at least partially drunk. But he made signals. It was almost never wise to ignore O’Leary’s signals. Norwood drew rein. “Hssst!” said O’Leary. “I’ve news!” “Quick.” “It ain’t.good news.” “Out with it.” “It’s all over the bloody bazaar that you’ve taken a bribe from the priests. Say it ain’t true!" “What did you say?” “I said what I’ve told the priest any number o’ times: T m a bad man, I am.' There’s almost nothing I ain’t guilty of, one time or an other. But I’ve this to my credit. I’m the wet and dry nurse to a gentleman.’ That's what I said." “What do you mean by all over the bazaar? Who told you?” “All the gamblers know it.” “Hold your tongue. Go straight back to the camp. Wait there for me.” “But I’ve more news—worse than that news.” “Keep it. Do as I told you. Hold your tongue. Return to camp and wait for me. I’m going to the palace." When he arrived at Oie gates he turned his horse over to one of the guards. There were five huge trunks on the veranda and three native serv ants. Mrs. Harding, looking pale and in a vile temper, reclined on the chaise longue, superintending the packing of the trunks. “Good afternoon. Can I speak to Miss Lynn Harding?" Norwood’s voice startled her. The certainty that he had overheard her remarks to the . servants increased her anger. She didn’t even invite him on to the veranda. “No.” “Sorry,” said Norwood. “I must. Where is she?” “Must? Oh, well, come in, Captain Norwood. Tdl one of these imbe ciles to take the things off that chair.” "Is Miss Harding here?” “No. Pray be seated. You may give your message to me.” Norwood smiled. "I wish to speak to Miss Lynn Harding—alone.” Mrs. Harding set her mouth grim ly: “I will not even deliver a mes sage to her unless I approve the message. I am tired of being used as a mere convenience.” 1 “Packing up to go?” asked Nor wood. “Miss Harding going away with you?” ■ “If not, it will be the last she will ever see of me. I have re ceived an impertinent note from the Maharanee.” “Well, I must see Miss Harding before she leaves. I want a state ment from her.” “I will have nothing to do with it! Statment? What kind of state ment?” Norwood began to look courteous ly determined. His smile froze slightly: “I didn’t come here to consult you,” he said, “I want to know what Miss Lynn Harding saw.” “Well, if you can find her, ask her. She will very likely not tell you the truth.” “I doubt that.” “That is your privilege, Captain Norwood. I am also privileged to have my doubts. Rumors reach even me. That babu doctor can no more keep a story to himself than he can diagnose an ailment.” “Oh. What has he told you about me?” “He appeared to be well informed. Ask him about it—if you care to.” “I am asking you, Mrs. Harding.” “Yes, I heard you. I don’t re peat gossip. I don’t wish to be mixed up in it. In all my Ufe, I have never met so many unscrupu lous persons in one place at the same time. The Maharanee is my hostess at the moment, so I reserve comment about her, beyond saying that she knew I have disapproved Lynn’s conduct. She has had the audacity to invite Lynn to stay on with her after I leave. I forbid it, of course. Equally, of course, Lynn will do as she pleases. If Lynn ac cepts the invitation, I am through with her forever.” Norwood’s pugnacity . broke re straint. He stood up. He looked ut terly unconcerned and good-hu mored except for the fact that his eyes looked steadily at Aunty Hard ing’s. He didn’t raise his voice. He didn’t betray anger. He spoke quite calmly: “Lynn is a lovely girl. Has any one ever said that of you, Mrs. Harding?” “Did you come here to insult me?” “No, Mrs. Harding. I am being more polite than perhaps the occa sion warrants.” “Oh. H that is your opinion—" He interrupted: “My opinion is this: if Lynn Harding should get into trouble, God Almighty will .hold you answerable. There isn't a high-spirit ed girl in the world who wouldn’t—" “I won’t listen to you.” “Sorry to contradict a lady, but you shall listen. It is your clear duty, Mrs. Harding, to have your self carried to the palace if you can’t walk.” “Oh? What on earth for?" “If you can persuade ^our niece to go away with you tomfeht, that may save not only her, but more than one other person from disas trous consequences.” “Oh. So you want her out of the way! What has Lynn done to you? I have heard a rumor that you are in trouble. But what authority does that give you to lecture me? Why don’t you go to the palace? Aren’t you welcome there?” ‘I have told you what your duty is," said Norwood. “There my own duty ends, as far as you are con cerned. Good afternoon, Mrs. Hard ing.” (TO BE CONTINUED) B ib le S to ry T e lls o f F ir st S u n d ia l in W orld H isto ry “The earliest mention of a sundial is, of course, in the Bible, on the occasion of the good King Heze- kiah’s prayer to God, when sick and aging, that He would extend his life, apparently for the sole but ex cellent reason that he loved it,” says Richard Ie Gallienne in “From a Paris Scrapbook.” “He dreaded ‘to behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world, for,' he cried, ‘O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit’—perhaps the most human cry in all literature. “And God took pity on him, grant ing him a reprieve of 15 years, put ting back the clock of time: ‘Be hold I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sundial of Ahaz 10 degrees backward. So the sun returned 10 degrees, by which it was, gone down.’ ” This gracious miracle happened about 700 B. C. King Charles V gave the first public dock, to Paris Si 1370, says Mr. Le Gallienne. “The dock we still see, with its beautiful dial, set in the Tour de Horloge of the Palais de Justice,” he adds. “It was made by the famous dockmak- er Henry de Vick, and a similar clock (still in going order) had been installed in Dover castle, Eng land, a few years before (1348)." In olden days, most men about town carried two watches on their fobs, to check one by the other. Yet this precaution was rather use less, Mr. Le Gallienne says, for when they didn’t agree it was a ques tion of which to believe. For in-’ stance: “A witty story is told of the fa mous dandy, the Marechal de' Richelieu, who always carried two,, both so beautiful that one day a certain great lady admired them so much that she asked to hold them in her hands that she might examine them closer. Then, to her great confusion, she let them slip out of her fingers and they fell to' the ground. The gallant Marechal did bis best to comfort her. ‘Don’t distress yourself,’ he said gaily, ‘It is the first time I ever saw them go together.’ ” Antwerp Has a Conscience Although Consdence square Is near the cathedral in Antwerp, Bel gium, it has nothing to' do with' Sie inner monitor, but is named for Hendrik Conscience, Flemish Sir Walter' Scott, and author of “The L iw of Flanders.” HOUSEHOLD QUESTIONS Better W afBes.-The flavor of waffles is enhanced by the simple addition of the grated rind of two lemons to the batter. « * * Removing Stains.—Lemon juice will remove a red ink stain. A - paraffin stain should be covered with oatmeal, then brushed after 24 hours. Soot marks should be covered with coarse salt. • • • For Rust on Porch Lamp.—To remove rust on metal porch lamps rub them with fine sandpaper or steel wool and then apply a thin coat of lubricating oil. * • » Polishing Towels.—Towels in tended for polishing glassware oft en shed tiny particles of fluff. To avoid this, they should be washed in the ordinary way and theu rinsed in a very thin solution of starch. * * * Encouraging Diligence. — Make a list of duties for the young mas culine member of the family to follow in cleaning his room. The business of checking them off each day gives him a sense of impor tance that encourages diligence. * * * For Cooking in the Open.—Two fires often are more convenient than one. One may be used for the coffee and the other for roast ing or frying.• * • Economy in Meat.—In buying a roast it often is economical to get a large one and cut off several chops for the first meal. The roast will keep for several days in a mechanical refrigerator. • * * Floor Polisher.—When polishing floors make a thick pad of felt or vdvet and fasten it over an old worn-out broom. This makes an excellent polisher and saves the trouble, of kneeling on the floor. ’Tis the Head, N ot Heart, That Wags the Tongue In recognition of some service Chief Washakie of the Shoshone Indians had rendered. General Grant sent him a beautiful silver- mounted saddle. It was present ed with troops drawn up and a grandiloquent speech by the com manding officer. When Washakie was asked if he wished to reply, he shook his head negatively. “What!” shouted* the colonel, “after all you heard you have nothing to say?” The Indian answered: “White man feels with his head; his head has tongue. Indian feels with his heart; heart no tongue."

Even if you save a man from drowning, he wiU demand his “baksheesh” if you appear to be' in better cir cumstances. One of the most Iefiiargic ani mals in existence is the tuatara, Sphenodon punctatum, a two-foot, lizardlike reptile of New Zealand. Not only does it rarely move, but it breathes so slowly that, usuaUy, the creature appears to be lifeless. Those in captivity have been known to stop breathing for more than an hour at a time. Oysters cateh more rats than do cats on the islands in Donegal bay, Ireland. The rodents go down to the beaches in search of food when the tide is out and poke their noses into the partly opened shells of the bivalves, which instantly close and capture them; then they are held in the oyster’s vi^elike grip until the tide returns and drowns them.

TMfe 5a VIC RfeCOftD, MoaCSVILLfe. N. £ OCTOBER 4,193$ Prices And Demands. Wejhave lately learned that part of the-blame for tbe rapid rise in prices of stanle groceries rightfully should be p'aced on a fantic buying public who became scared about tbe war and tried to buy up everything In sight. Frightened housewives, remem bering the sugarage shortage dur ing the World War, bought heav ily of sugar and the powers that be raised tbe pi ices in accordance to toe peculiar demand not justified by tbe supply 01 circumstances exist iog at the time. To stem the tide of soaring prices on sugar the federal government wiped out tbe sugar quota, an act which will increase the supply available to buying public. In view of tbls act we would advise that no one be any longer frightened about the supply of sugar because it will not soar. There has not been the slightest justification for the big jump in ptices because there are great sur pluses above tbe normal demand for food crops. Ifthefarmersgettbeir jusc share of the increase little dam age will be done because the buy ing power will be increased for manufactured products. If profi teers get the biggest part of the in crease there will be a reaction. It is gratifying to note that the administration is making effort to curb profiteering and keep things on a reasonable price basis. If tbeir efforts succeed we may expect to make sound progress which will be beneficial to all lines of business.— Wilkes Journal. Scalps And Little Fish. Coleman Roberts, of Charlotte, playing host to a friend on a fish ing trip to Lake Lure, was arrest by a game warden for having under size fish in bis possession. He paid tbe usual fine, but this from a cor respondent of the Winstcn-SaIem Journal, indicates that Robert didn't.relish it a little bit. “The arrest was made by W. R. McLean . . . Now rumors are cur rent that an attempt will be made to get Warden McLean’s scalp.” Robert is a member of the board of conservation and deeply interest ed in the game division, so deeply interested in the fact that he was quite willing to use game funds for other purposes only remotely re lated to the protection of game. It follows then that he must have been quite famitiar with the rules that requires a fishing license and that govern the size of tbe fish that may be taken from the waters. Yet it doth appear that he regarded these rules as having been made for the other fellow, and above all never be applied to a member of the board. There was some question about the license, but that was arranged. Not so with the little fishes; There they were as plain as day and they couldn’t be explained away. Evid ently the magistrate was hard to convince.- And while Roberts’ will ingness to take the rap for a friend is inspiring, it also denotes some body’s guilt, and, as the Gteens- boro Daily News says, indicates that Warden McLean "rendered the kind of service that citizens in geneial and sportsmen in particular should demand of and uphold in those in public employment.’’ ; If Coleman Roberts gets Warden McLean’s scalp, then the conserva tion board is rotten than we thought.—Statesville Daily.

Winston in piece in the North Carolina Chris tian Advocate closes with this “ Mothers of North Carolina, you whose sons may soon be lying stiff and cold in another Flanders Field, do your own thinking, sit down and write your congressman to kill this cash-and carry bill.” Andthe editors of that popular religions approve Judge Winston’s words. Many a mother, picturing in her mind a son “lying stiff and cold” , will right-off write her congress man as Judge Winston suggests,— without doing her own thinking. We quote Judge Winston further: “ Why repeal the present law? It absolutely prohibits the sales of war implements to any nation, and is a guarantee of peace to us. It is to o per cent efficient. Whereas, under the cash-and-carry law we would be fighting Germany and aiding England to kill her enemies.” Editor Piyler would hardly con- contend. that Judge Winston has bis facts on straight there. And if he is careless in his conclusions a- bout one thing, he could be another. Onr present neutrality law does not “absolutely prohibit the sale of war implements to any nation,” as the judge should know. If it did so prohibit, then < the only excuse the President could offer for its re peal would be either a carving for war profits or the desire for ulti mate victory for Britain and France —or both. If our embargo wsh a gainst the shipment of war imple ments to anybody anywhere then it would be ai. noble experiment in deed. The embargo not only permits the shipment of implements of war to non belligerent nations, -but ac tually permits the shipments of es sential war materials to belligerents, drawing the line only between fully processed item and the fame items for the same purpose that ate not processed. No matter under which system we. operate, a German submarine can sink an American ship and breed trouble, so neither in them selves will keep U3 out of war. In this.day when the American public is being exhoited to keep cool and determined to stay out of war, they must necessarly turn to such leaders as Judge Winston and Editor PIyler, and from then should come only, the bard facts, if they are to -serve righteously.—States ville Daily Picked 522 Pounds Of Cotton In Day.

Hitler Is Playing With Fire. (Salisbury Past) Russia is a land which stretches hilf way around the world in its northern' reaches. It is a land far larger than all of the rest of Europe combined. Geogtaohically Eng- Iaud is but a pimple compared with the sprawling immeh iity of the So viet Uoipn, France is but a wen. Russia has eighteen million arm. ed soldiers, she has reseives un known and uncounted in men and io resources. Is it any wonder tba* England and France aopear hesitant in ful filling their pledged word to declare war,upon any and every power in- vadiftg Poland? Isitany wonder that, in Paris and in London they are straining evety agency of diplomacy to ac cept the Moscow view that there isn't any Poland any more? Will it be strange if both Eng. land and France decide to take in good faith Moscow’s declaration that Russian troops are sweeping Poland oaly for the purpose of re storing order and of protecting the millions of Russians living in east ern Poland. We cannot see that there is any wonder, anything strange in these things at all. Our neighborlng:European-Asia tic power, Russia, is no mere Ger many, no mere Italy; our neighbor, ing dictator Stalin is no mere Hit ler, no mere Mussolini. ; And the only .hopeful angle to that is that the one man on earth most likely to discover it to his confusion is Adolf'Hitler, the tern porary beneficiary of Russian for eign policy.

JEST RRST CtASS SAtesMAKisHlPoTELtIKll j A tL VEtl CUSTOMERS AT TH’ SAWlE TIME / Hoover To Open Cam paign In Charlotte. Herbert Ciark Hoover, of Palo Alto, Calif, former President of the United States, who the Republicans are looking for much advice on who will be the candidate for the presid ency in 1940, has accepted the invi. tation to come to North Carolina, probably in November, to formally open the' Republican/ campaign in this state. Jake F. Newell, of Charlotte, Re publican State Chairman, says that a statewide mass meeting will be held in Charlotte for Uie purpose of opening the campaign in the state and that ex-President Herbert Hoov will address the gathering. It will be one of tbe greatest gatherings of members'of the party ever held in North Carolina with several hundred coming from practically every sec tion of the state for the occasion. Mr. Newell says that Mr. Hcover has definitely promised him that he will come to Charlotte to address the North Carolina Republicans. “How ever,” the state chairman added, we have done nothing about set* ting tbe date. When M r/ Hoover suggested that some time in the fall would .probably be better than an earlier date.” With, the opening of state head quarters in the Selwynhotel on Octo ber 2, tbe Rapublicans are planning to prepare for the most vigorous campaign the state has seen in many years, and the' appearance of Mr. Hoover will, according to Mr. Newell prepare the way for the biggest state convention the Republicans have ever had in North Carolina. The appearance of Mr.. Hoover will bring about realization of an ambition that Republicans have had for a number of years. When Mr. Hoover was preparing to open his unsuccessful campaign for re-election in 1932, Republicans of the stale held a series of meetings in an effort to have him open the campaign in Charlotte. At one time they had this import ant appearance assured, but a series of circumstances caused. Mr. Hoover t a make other plans. While Republicans do not expect Mr. Hoover to be the candidate him self. tbey do feel that he will have much to do with the selection of a nominee, and tbey feel sure that any pronouncements he may make in a speech in Charlotte will be indicative of the policies the party will follow in the 1940 campaign. Let’s Watch Oor Step. There is a good deal of loose talk going around about “ backing up the President too percent” in mat ters of foreign policy comments the Fort Wayne News Sentinel. There can be no quarrel with unifed sup port of the right kind of foreign policy—a policy favored by niajcri ty. opinion, a policy squaring.' with the interests of the masses, who, in the last analysis, must fight and payfor anv war in which their country is involved. .That kind 'of support has been advocated b y former President Herbert Hoover who made the fol lowing statement: “ Whatever our sympathies may be, we cannot solve tbe problems of. Europe. America must keep out ol this war. The President and Congress should be supported in their.every effort to keept us out ” The President a n d Congress should not be supported in anv move that might likely take us in to war—or any other on ^ foreign s Ml. Mr. Hooverwent on to say, "We can keep out of it if we have the resolute national will to do so *' Americans have no. earthly busi. ness getting entangled in this mess in Europe. Whether Hitler wants to rule all eastern Europe, whether -he wants to take a slice of France or even take over England, it trik es us, is none of our business, we give or sell one or more of Sense of Rumor. When a community is passing through a crisis, when reliable' in formation is scarce, and yet it is known’ that important events are happening, there is always a temp tation for people to lose their discri mination in the matter of news. Even those who keep their sense - of humor are liable to add to it a sense of rumor, to develop a flair for a scare, and to become a sort of pat ent office for wild ,inventions. Too often authority is little better than that possessed by tbe rumor-monger in the rhyme, who. protested that': “Absolute evidence have I none, -. .

When constipation brings on acid indigestion, bloating, dizzy spells, gas, coated tain undigested fo____________ move. So you need both Peptin to help break up fast that rich undigested food in your stomach, and Laxative Senna to pull the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be eure your laxative also contains Pepsin. Take Dr. Caldwell’s Laxative, because its Syrup Peptin helps you gain that won- ' derful stomach-relief, while the Laxative Senna moves your bowels. Tests prove the power of Peptin to dissolve those lumps of undigested protein food which may linger in your stomach, to cause belching, gastric acidity and nausea. This is how pepsin- izing your stomach helps relieve it of such distress. At the same time this medicine wakes up lazy nerves and mustles in your bowels to relieve your constipation. So see how much better you fed by taking the laxative that also puts Peptin to work on that stomach discomfort, too. Even finicky children love to taste this pleasant family laxative.

Facing him sat Sergeant Stoddart, weary from a day’s work surveying the river. Norwood dismounted near the horse-line, issued sharply detailed orders about the care of his horse and strode toward the tent; “I will send for you when I want you, Stoddart. Come here, O’Leary.” Norwood’s servant removed his riding boots and produced whiskey and soda. Norwood drank. O’Leary watched him drink. Norwood light ed a cigarette, smoked half of it, and then spoke to O’Leary; “Now then. Sit down on that box and begin. Omit the introduction. Tell the news.” _ “ ’Ts bad, not good, news,” said O’Leary. “Might have got some good news if I’d had more money. Good news comes expensive oftener than not. What I’m tellin’ you now, I’d tell to Father ManoellYtn bended knees, and none but him and Saint Antonio to hear me. So get it first time. If I have to say it twice over, I might get muddled. I’m drunk, on account of having had to drink cheap liquor. Seeing it was your responsi bility, and none o* mine, me being under your orders, I went gambling. Cock-fights. I lost a little money to a man who don’t know cock-fighting from puss-in-the-comer. But he’s runner for the layers of odds who’d bet you you don’t know your own name. Ilrid they’d make money do ing it. But there weren’t much news there; “Never mind the details of your bet. Tell your story.” “I betted five rupees. The insid ers are offering five to one that the. Maharajah won’t live the week out. I betted he will.” “Why?” “If me and you weren’t on the job, I’d hedge. It was a woman told me why the odds are five to one he’ll die within a week. She was as drunk as a Bombay crow, and she told me who’s taking the five to one, same as I did, only for a different reason. I asked her, and she laughed like a hyena—” “Never mind what she did. What did she tell you?” “She didn’t tell me nothin*. She asked questions. If the Maharajah should die, who would come to the throne? Who owes a lakh of rupees and has promised to pay when he comes to the throne? Whose credi tors have threatened to' appeal to the British Resident? Whose aunt, being angry with him, this very day refused him money with which to pay off his creditors?” “That sounds like palace gossip,” said Norwood. “I could tell you more than that, that’s, happened in the palace,” said O’Leary. “They’re betting even money that the Maharajah will be dead by midnight tonight.” Norwood: . threw his cigarette away. ‘■Go on with your story.” “It’s a string o’ questions, not a story.- When they tell you a thing in plain words, ’tain’t: true—ever. Here’s a question: if the heir to a throne should owe you money, and you’d get paid if he comes to the throne along o’ someone dying; and the odds was five to one that the someone , would, die within a week; wouldn’t you bet heavy against his dying, so that if he didn’t die, you’d get som e-m oney anyhow? That’s what Rundbia’s creditors are doing. If the Maharajah dies, and Riindhia comes to the throne, they’ll get paid: And if the Maharajah doesn’t die, they’ll win their bet. You get that?” “What else did you hear?” O’Leary stepped outside the tent. “You ain’t goin* to like this one!” “Come back, you fool. Sit down. Now, tell it.” “Naming no names. Everybody says Rundhia stopped a wallop on the snout from her that kept the doctor busy for a half hour.. That’s all. I didn’t hear nothing else what ever.. Not enough money. I spent what I had like a paymaster-gen eral. What’s that you have in your hand?” “Get me a dog and we’ll find out. It’s some of Mrs. Harding’s food.” “There ain’t no dog in camp, bar ring that cur 6f Stoddart’s. Stoddart keeps him tied up, on account o’ his having bit the cook. Stoddart don't favor the cook, he ain’t that stupid. But if the cook gets hydro phobia, we’ll all be biting one an other and—” “Bring the brute here.” .“You mean the cook or Stoddart?” “The dog.” Norwood sat smoking and frown ing until O’Leary came towing the dog, at the end of a' length of in sulated wire. Itwasamean-Ioddng byute with pale blue eyes, a vaga bond slink in its gait, and an insatia ble void in its belly. The sight of any kind of food excited the ani mal. He pricked his ears. Nor wood tossed him. the piece of toast. He gulped it. “Hold him,” said Norwood. The dog sat there seeming to ex pect Norwood to go on feeding him. Neither Norwood nor O’Leary spoke until the dog’s attention wandered and he began to strain at the leash. “That will do. Let him go.” The dog took six strides. Then he stopped, and the toast came forth like Jonah from the belly of the whale. “Meaning?” asked O’Leary. “Somebody wasn’t intended to die,” said Norwood. “Merely in tended to feel too ill to interfere with someone. Can you sober up? Or shah I—” ‘T m sober. Forget your medi cine chestl Once was enough o’ that stuff! What do you want done? I’U do it!” “Do you know Rundhia’s Bengali doctor?” “Sure.” “What’s he doing?” “So I needn't be too particular?” “You wiU be on your absolutely best behavior.” “What you want is a miracle.” “Yes. And to produce one, if you must, you may admit that it was I who sent you to make enquiries. Get busy.” CHAPTER XII Prince Rundhia returned from his interview with the Resident charged with that mysterious sensation that can lead a genius to startling vic tory. He had tasted success. He had made a British Resident squirm. Rundhia had crossed his Rubicon. He had started something. He felt like a genius, and he looked the part S “Did you mention my name in connection with this?” now as he stepped out of his Rolls- Royce at-the palace front door. The Maharanee came fussing into Lynn’s bedroom; “Lynn darling, Rundhia wishes to see you. And I have told him I won’t speak to him until you forgive him.” Lynn laughed: “All right. Come and hear me forgive him. It seems to me you’re more afraid-of Run- dhia than I am. Read this first: it’s a note from Aunty. Isn’t it per fect? Aunty is one of those people who never use more than ten words in a telegram.” The Maharanee' read the note aloud: “Refuse the Maharanee’s invita tion, pack your things and come away. Deborah Harding.” “You will obey her?” “No,!’ Lynn answered. "I have obeyed her for the last time. May I say I have accepted your invita tion?’’ "Please, Lynn. Please accept it.” “Very well, let’s keep Rundhia waiting, while I write her a note.” So Lynn wrote a .note to her aunt, but she did not show it to the Ma haranee. Lynn and the Maharanee emerged through the big brass gate and be came modem women. The seventy- year-old servant with the key pre ceded them and announced them, but they walked into Rundhia’s den as if it were a New York apart ment, which it rather resembled. “Rundhia, that you should have dared to ask permission to speak to Miss Lynn Harding, makes me hope you are ashamed mid that you wish very humbly to beg her pardon." Rundbia was perfect. He didn't even make any contrite gestures. He looked straight at Lynn as if he and she-hadn’t even an excuse for a misunderstanding. - “I am not in the least ashamed,” he answered. “A man who wouldn’t have behaved as I did would have been an incongruous monstrosity without blood in his veins, or a heart, or a human emotion. My humility, such as it is, is solely due to my failure to make Lynn love me as I love her. I live in hope. I won’t do anything like that again. Lynn, I admire your independent spirit just as much as I adore your charm. I propose to . marry you, and I don't in the least regret hav ing learned that you respect your self.” “Good for you,” Lynn answered. “Now Maharanee dear, you can talk to him again, can’t you?” “Yes,” said the Maharanee, “if you are so magnanimous as to ac cept that speech for an apology. But. I will not pay Rundhia’s debts until I see how he behaves! I have heard plenty of Rundhia’s prom ises.” Rundhia smiled at his aunt: “You dear old despot, you could make me promise anything!” he glanced at Lynn. “Have you heard from Nor wood?” . “What about him?” she answered. Rundhia’s eyes watched hers with masked triumph. “There is more than a rumor,” he said. “There is proof. To the hilt. Norwood has accepted a bribe. Norwood’s number is up.” The Maharanee gasped. She looked shocked, and Lynn noticed it. Lynn said nothing. “Rundhia, what have you been do ing?” asked the Maharanee. “The Resident phoned, asking me to come and see him,” Rundhia an swered. “He has heard about Nor wood carrying diamonds in his pock et.” Lynn laid down her cigarette. It didn’t taste good. "Rundhia,” she said, “who told the Resident?” Rundhia shrugged his shoulders. “How should I know?” “But I think you do know,” said the Maharanee. “Rundhia,” she re peated, “what have you been do ing?” “Norwood accepted a present of diamonds, from some agents of the temple authorities, to write a report in the priests’ favor, in connection with the dispute about the boundary line and the question of who owns the land that the diamonds came from.. There’s your incorruptible British officer! Same old story! Good-by Norwood! They will hold a court martial behind closed doors, of course. Lynn was remembering. The physical struggle with Rundhia in the treasure room was a fact through which slowly emerged something less than a fact—an im pression. She remembered Run dhia’s eyes when she told him about the packet of diamonds that she had seen fall from Norwood’s pocket. She remembered her immediate re gret at having mentioned Norwood and the diamonds, even though she did it to distract Rundhia’s atten tion from herself. Regret enlarged itself how into a kind of cold, ap palling horror. “Rundhia,” ' she asked almost hoarsely, “did you mention my name in connection with this?” “Why should I?” “Did you? Would you rather I should ask the Resident?” "I had to tell him all I knew,” Rundhia answered. “It was confi dential—off the record. I forbade him to mention your name or mine.” “Have they arrested Captain Nor wood?” “Norwood- is a crook, who has been found out. Why should you bother about him?” The Maharanee interrupted: "Lynn dear, why are you so nerv ous? If Rundhia. learned of some thing wrong, it was his duty—” Rundhia interrupted his aunt: “Duty? Norwood insulted every sin gle one of us, including you, Lynn. I heard him. He’s a cad. Let him take the consequences.” • Lynn returned to the main point: "Rundhia, you say that the Resi dent phoned you. But how did the Resident know? Wasn’t it you who phoned the Resident? If you don’t tell me, I intend to ask the Resi dent. There’s a phone here. Shall I use it?” “My advice to you is to keep out of it,” Rundhia answered. “They might make you give evidence. Do you wish to be dragged into a scan dal? Norwood is guilty. Do you want to add to the poor devil’s hu miliation by appearing in court against him?” “Rundhia, was it you who told the Resident about those diamonds in Captain Norwood’s pocket?” Rundhia didn’t answer. Lynn got out of her chair and went and sat beside the phone. It was on a lit tle table near the Maharanee. She raised the phone ofl the bracket, but let it click down again when Run dhia opened his lips. .“Since you insist,” said Rundhia. “Yes. I told the Resident. How ever, he was already suspicious of Norwood. He was glad to. get my information.” “And you told the Resident that your information came from me?” “I had to. But as I have al ready told you, I forbade him to mention your name.” “Then I am in the position of having betrayed Captain Norwood?” “Do you call it betrayal? He’s a crook. He accepted a bribe. Not the first time either, I dare bet you.” Lynn spoke indignantly: “I don’t believe Captain Norwood would ac cept a bribe from anyone. I haven’t even the slightest suspicion of his being guilty, no matter what you, or the Resident, or anyone may think. I shouldn’t have mentioned those diamonds to you. I did it inadvert ently,' when I felt I had to say something and it was the first thing that came to mind. You had no right to repeat what I said.” “You should first have consulted His Highness my husband,” said the Maharanee. “Why didn’t you?” “Because he would have done nothing, as usual,” Rundhia retort ed. Lynn’s fingers returned to the tele phone, but her eyes were on Run dhia. The threat of the telephone no longer worked. He nodded. “Go ahead,” he said. “Phone the Resident, if you care to. I wanted to keep^you out of it, but do as you please.” Lynn stood up. “No,” she an swered. “I will write to Captain Norwood. I will ask him to come and see me. Perhaps my evidence would help him.' At the very least, I can tell him how sorry I am.” “Lynn dear!” said the Mahara nee. But Lynn was resolute. She wouldn’t listen to her. “May I have pen, ink and paper?” ■ No one answered. Lynn tugged open the drawer of the writing ta ble, pulled out paper, sat there, and began to write. She laid the note she had addressed to Aunty Hard ing on the desk. In her haste, she splashed ink on the envelope. When she had finished her letter to Nor wood, she noticed the blots on the letter to Aunty Harding. She threw Amity’s envelope into the waste-bas ket. She turned both letters face downward on the blotter, while she searched for envelopes. There were none in the desk drawer. She asked Rundhia for envelopes. He found two. She inserted the letters, sealed up the envelopes and addressed them. Rundhia walked out of the room. “I have sent him,” said the Ma haranee, "to find a reliable mes senger, who will know how to find Captain Norwood if he is not at his camp.” Lynn gave both letters to the Ma haranee. “Darling,” said the Maharanee, “Rundhia adores you so much that you could persuade him to do any thing.” (TO BE CONTINUED) Tiny Least Weasel Rated With Other Ferocious Animals Ounce for ounce, with the possi ble exception of the shrews, the tiny least weasel is the most fero cious and bloodthirsty animal of the mammalian class. Only a fraction over six indies in length, and weigh ing on an average about one-third of a pound, it is distinguished from the other weasels by its extremely small size and almost total lack of the characteristic black tip to the tail. With its long flattened head, wide jaws, and peculiar loop ing gait when scenting a trail, it gives a definite impression of resem blance to a reptile. There is a tense readiness about it, compara ble to a coiled spring held precari ously in leash. The least weasel is reddish-brown above, and white beneath. In com mon with other weasels, it pos sesses the ability to change to a white coat in winter, which must give it an enormous advantage over the mice and birds upon winch it preys. In fact, it is only in the light of the almost unbelievable fertility of its victims that one can conceive of their continued exist ence, for all weasels are known to attack out of mere lust for kill ing. However,, this is apparently part of Nature’s scheme of checks and balances, and the conduct of weasels should not be judged by human m oral' standards. On the credit side are an enormous num ber of insects and rodent pests de stroyed by this small predator, thus making it decidedly beneficial to man’s interests. The four North American subspe cies of this highly successful little carnivore: range from Alaska to Hudson bay,/and southward to Mon tana, Minnesota, Indiana, and Petan- sylvania; but in addition, the spe cies has recently been shown to be represented by Old World races, making it circ'umpolar in riuige. Nevertheless, despite this wide radi ation, it is rarely taken in traps and little is known of its habits. The nest, usually grass-lined, is in a hole in a bank. Four to six young are born in a litter. Methuselah’s Diet Centenarians in Jugoslavia are convinced that Methuselah must have lived on cheese, for they al ready have a good start on the rec ord set by the Biblical ancient A recent census showed that over 2,000 Jugoslavs have passed the 100-year mark, and since the staple food of these people is sour milk and goat cheese, - there: seem s! to be some basis for their contention.

Herbert Holman, of Marshall town, Iowa, sends a copy of an Iowa paper to relatives in Davie, which tells a corn story. The Marsbalitown paper says that Don Raddal of Washington, Iowa, pro duced on his farm this year, the stalk of corn in the world. The stalk measured 23 feet and 10 inches in height, which was more than five feet higher than the tallest stalk of corn ever grown in this country. Rev. J.

The cur rent insistence of General Pedro Aurelio Goes Monteiro that there must be continental unity in the Western hemisphere is the most def initely responsive message that our state department has yet obtained in its overtures to Latin-America. “We must be prepared to face any eventuality,” says the general, “and to ward off at tacks against this continent of liberty and tolerance.” He is known as the “General Grant of Brazil,” this tag being due to his suppressing the San Paolo revolt in 1932, and disclosing a pen chant for co-operation with the government thereafter. Washington . made a great fuss over him, when he was here last July, having pre vailed over Germany in an encoun ter of international tuft-hunting— Germany was readying a big party for him, but he stopped off here, instead. Fifty years old; round-faced and amiable, he is professional soldier, but bears none of the impress of the military career ist. He moved up slowly through grades in the army, and did not become a captain until 1924. He became chief of staff in 1932, commanding an army of 65,000. In 1936, his son, Lieut. Pedro Aurelio Goes Monteiro Jr., was killed in an airplane accident. He has one daughter.

He is rather slight in stature, with thinning hair, quietly unassuming, given to reserve in manner and quiet, easy speech. He was trained at Sandhurst, and in the World war gained a reputation as a shrewd strate gist, capable of scoring with out sacrificing too many men. He is distinctly of tlje pre-1914 school of army tradition, and that has been a matter of con siderable satisfaction in Eng land.

Origins and inducements of war, the propaganda build-up and particularized information on any particular war which might be in the offing will be elaborated to boost calm reason and prevent “mass hysteria.” It was in 1933 that Dr. Hutchi son told a state convention of New Jersey school teachers that “education in high schools, col leges and universities has be-- come the great American rack et.” His idea, later expounded and amplified, is that the above ,is made manifest by the appall ing number of college graduates who are just a jump or two ahead of the police in “defalca tions, corrupt practices, munic ipal graft” and the like.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY!CHOOL Lresson By BAROLD L. LUNDQUISTt D. D. Dean of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago:(Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for October 15 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by - Interrational Council of Religious Education; used by permission. THE TEMPTATION OF JESUS LESSON TEXT—Matthew 4:1-11.GOLDEN TEXT—For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was m all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.—Hebrews 4:15. Temptation is the common lot of all mankind (I Cor. 10:13). The strongest and most noble of men are subject to it; angels were tempted, and our scripture reveals that even Jesus was tempted. We recognize ,that Jesus was tempted as the Messiah (vv. 3, 6) and as one without sin (Heb. 4:15), but it is also true that He was tempted in all points as we are, apart from sin, and that we may learn from His temptation how we may meet and be the victors over temptation. I. What Is Temptation? “Temptation is seduction to evil solicitation to wrong. It stands dis tinguished from trial thus: trial tests, seeks to discover the man’s moral qualities or character; but temptation persuades to evil, de ludes, that it may ruin. God tries; Satan tempts” (A. M. Fairbaim). Temptation is not sin, but yielding to temptation is sin. Luther said, “We cannot keep the birds from flying over our heads, but we can keep them from building nests in our hair.” Temptation comes from within, that is, from our own lusts (James 1:13,14). Satan also tempts us (Eph. 6:11). God may permit temptation as a means of proving our faith (James 1:2, 3). II. How Temptation Works. It is significant that the tempta tions of Jesus were along the three fold line of the temptations of Adam and Eve (Gen. 3:6) and the general threefold temptation of all men, namely, the lust of the flesh, the pride of life, and the lust of the eyes (I John 2:16). These three temptations really exhaust Satan’s bag of tricks, but he can dress up these three fundamental tempta tions with almost endless variety. He \5orks 1. By appealing to the flesh (w . 2, 3). He observes the normal ap petites and desires of a man’s body, excites them to a high degree, and then suggests an improper method of satisfying them. Hunger is nor mal and a sign of good health. Jesus had fasted forty days and Satan took advantage of that fact to suggest the use of His divine power to satisfy His hunger. This would involve a denial of His entire mis sion on earth, namely, the redemp tion of man by a divine person who had become a real man. 2. By appealing to pride (vv. 5, 6). Satan misapplied Scripture to tempt Jesus to presumption on the' assumption thiat He was exercising faith. God had promised to keep Him “in all his ways” (Ps. 91:11). To cast himself down from the tem ple was not one of the ways in which Christ was called to walk. Satan comes to us with the same kind of temptation. If He cannot get us to forsake faith, he tempts us to become fanatic and to proudly substitute presumption for faith. 3. By appealing to the eyes (w . 8 , 9). By showing Christ .the king doms of the world and offering them to Him by the short-cut of a brief act of worship rather than by the way of the cross, Satan tempted Him again. Here the devil showed his true desire that man should wor ship him rather than God. III. How to Meet Temptation (vv. 4, 7, 10). 1. By the right use of Scripture. If Jesus needed that weapon, how can we do without it? How can we use Scripture if we do not study it and hide it in our .hearts? 2. By dependence on God. Every Scripture used by Jesus honored I God. We cannot fight Satan -in our | Egoists Thwart Child’s Natural Talent Trends • ALLOW CHILD TO DE- velop characteristics. Hered ity plays strange tricks, and “like father, like son” doesn't always hold true. Individual inclinations should be recog nized and honored. own strength. To attempt to do so is to fail utterly. The real victory I for the Christian is to bring Satan back to the cross where Christ won a decisive victory over him. 3. By denouncing Satan. Jesus sent him on his way. -We may do the same in Jesus’ name. It is al ways a serious error to try to argue with Satan or to engage in any dis cussion with him. Let us meet him with Scripture and with a “Get thee hence.” IV. The. Result. Satan left and angels came to : minister to Christ. The overcom- j ing of temptation results in peace, I victory, and blessing. This is ever - so in the life of the believer. Temp- I tation overcome makes us stronger j to m eet'the next temptation, and also enables us to help our weaker brethren. By FRANCES DUNLAP HERON 'T'HE mothers of the second grade -*• pupils were leaving school after attending a program presented by their children. Martha Kent and Syl via Thomson paired off to walk down Elm street together. “How proud you must be of Mari anne, Sylvia!” her friend exclaimed. “I envy you every time I hear her sing. She has more musical talent than any other child in the group. If only my Donald had her ability!” “Of course I’m proud of Mari anne,” Sylvia replied. “But music isn’t the only thing in life. Do you mind, Martha, if I speak to you about something personal?” “Why, of course not, Sylvia.” “It’s about Donald. Ever since I’ve known you, three years now, you’ve lamented over and over again the fact that Donald doesn’t show aptitude in music. Now tell me honestly why you feel so keenly about it.” “Well, you see, Frank and I just naturally expected our child would be musical. Both of our families have more than average talent. You know yourself Frank plays and sings beautifully and—” “You’re a delightful organist, vio linist and singer—I’ll save your modesty,” Sylvia interrupted laugh ingly. “And you dreamed of Don ald’s carrying on the tradition, didn’t you?” “Yes.” The word spoke frustrated hopes. “Now listen to my story,” Syl via continued. “Do you suppose we expected our Marianne to be mu sical? No. Vick and I do well to carry a tune. But, we thought Mar ianne would be a shining intellectual light, perhaps a linguist or historian or scientist. Look at Vick’s family of teachers and literary people. And if I do say so, my lawyer husband is pretty smart—Phi Beta and all that. And I, well, at least my school work was my joy, and I was always disappointed if I was not at the head of my class. “Much to our surprise and disap pointment, however, from the time she was a baby Marianne showed an entirely different type of mind from ours—no logic, no reflection, no ingenuity. Hoping to bring out what we could not find, we sent her to kindergarten. Miss Meloy, the teacher, studied every child care fully, and I marvel yet at her in sight. "One day after several months of school she was having conferences with parents: ‘Mrs. Thomson,’ she said to me, ‘you and Marianne’s fa ther are trying to mold her instead of letting her develop in her own way. You want her to be a deeply intellectual person. Marianne has not that turn of mind. I doubt if she was born to be a great thinker. But for a child -of her age she has a talent for music and an apprecia tion of rhythm and beauty that are remarkable. Develop them.’ “That young kindergarten teacher opened our eyes, and we’re trying to follow her advice. Now about your Donald. I think he has one of the best minds of all the children I know. The way he sizes up a situa tion and goes logically to a solution is wonderful. At play, he is the one who devises games and leads. Don’t you see? Forget his lack of musical genius and help him develop his own particular gifts. Why the scholarly Thomsons should have a musical daughter and the musical Kents a scholarly son is just one of the queer tricks heredity plays!” Martha Kent was thoughtful. “To think I’ve never looked at it that way! I wish you’d spoken to me sooner. But we aren’t the only ones' who’ve erred, are we? I know a lot of parents who expect their children to be like them. I suppose it’s our egotism.” National Kindergarten Association (WNU Service.) Framing Onr Lives Religion does not consist jn the performance of certain ceremonial acts at specified times, outside which acts and tinies it has no place: but consists in framing our whole life, and all our acts, upon a distinct view of our position as cre ated beings, charged by the fact of our creation, with duties both to our fellow creatures and to our Creator. —Ed ward Denisnn Little-Known Eagle The harpy eagle, a native of the forest fastness of the Brazilian jun gles, is a powerful predator and the most striking member of the eagle family. Unlike our native species its wings and tail are short and it is seldom seen in flight. A five-foot wingspread is considered the limit for this bird. It finds all of its food in the jungle and prefers monkeys, sloths and peccaries as a diet. The- Indians capture and cage this bird keeping it in confinement for the decorative feathers it produces.

Wide stripes of gingham and narrow ones of prepared bias trimming were then stitched in place to make stripes. The chart shows BANOS % WDE the colors that were used and gives the widths and spacing of the stripes. Of course, you will have some ideas of your own about the stripes and colors.

L E T U S TELL T O U M O R E U O U T IT Mm Tempting tarts are grand for party refreshments or a famUy meal. See Becipe Below. Perfection in Pies • There’s something about a piece of reaUy good pie, with its flaky, golden-brown crust and a filling simply oozing flavor and goodness, that makes it the ^crowning glory of a meal. Just a whiff of the fra grance of a juicy apple pie, or the sight of a quivery custard in a crust that crumbles at the first touch whets the appetite; and one glance at a slice of dainty, chiffon pie, with its feather-light fill ing, is enough to make even a strong-willed calorie-counter forget his diet! Making pies that achieve perfec tion isn’t as difficult as it sounds. Standardized equipment (such as measuring cups and spoons) and oven thermometers and heat control have taken the uncertainty out of measuring and baking. With a proven recipe, good ingredients, standard equipment and some easily acquired technique, any woman can make good pie and make it every time! Pointers on Making Pastry. 1. Unless you are making hot wa ter pastry, have the ingredients for making pie crust cold. 2. Cut shortening into the flour, using a pastry blender or fork; or, if you’re an experienced cook, and work quickly, blending in the short ening with fingers is permissible. 3. Add water sparingly, using only enough to hold the ingredients to gether. Handle dough as little and as lightly as possible after adding water. 4. RoU out the dough on a lightly floured board or on a heavy canvas. Cover the rolling pin with a child’s white cotton stocking (with the foot cut off) and flouring it lightly simpli- fies handling the dough. 5. Place the dough loosely in the pan to help prevent shrinking. Grandmother’s Sour Cream Pie.

Some are new, some are old. Those of us who were going to movies during the last war will recognize in some everything but the actors as products of the past. How ever, with sound, and new peo ple going through the motions, no doubt they’ll seem new enough. “The Road Back” is to be re issued by Universal, with the scenes that were deleted when the picture was made in 1937 because of an official request that they be omitted, in a desire not to annoy Germany. It looks as if Gary Coopei might as WeU reconcUe himself to wear ing a uniform whenever he steps in front of a camera. His current pic ture, “The Real Gloiy,” presents him as an American lieutenant in the medical corps, way bach in 1906. He’U begin work shortly in “Black out Over Europe,” which deals with air raids in the present war. Andrea Leeds has announced her engagement, and not to an actor. It’s to be hoped that marriage won’t mean her giving up her career ; she has come so fast in so shoit a time. ANDREA LEEDS Rising tp fame with a scream ini “Stage Door,” she’s gone right along; in “The Real Glory” she gives an'excellent performance. The March of Time is stepping into the fuU-length feature field with “The Ramparts We Watch,” based on the book by Major George Field ing EUot. According to the an nouncement, it “brings to the screen a new production idea in feature pictures with a realistic plot that carries a terrific impact in view of the events in Europe today.” Work started about the middle of Septem ber in New London, .Conn., and the picture wiU have no connection with the regular March of Time issues. Many a {ill would like to know Joan Fontaine’s formula for getting what she wants. She does it every time. She married Brian Ahearne, causing several young actresses in New Tork and points west to gnaw file woodwork in rage. Now she’s; slated for the lead in “Rebecca, for which many tests were made; and many wires were polled.

BUYER MEETS SELLER Little Stingers. (From Tbo Yellow Jacket) We used to think a straddle-bug was some sort of a contraption that was not nice to. talk about. But thanks to FDR1 we have a better understanding now. A straddle bug is a Democrat who refuses to straddle the New Deal jackass but wants to keep his legs astraddle the Jeffersonian donkey- If Jack and Jill really went up the hill to get a pail of water, and Jack fell down and broke his crown and Iill came. tumbling after, it seems conclusive evidence that in. stead of getting water they struck a New Deal beer joint. Isn’t ft remarkable what an ass some so-called great men make of themselves. Here comes H. G. Wells, the English prognosticator and says of F D R: “There is no one to replace him and nothing to replace him. New Dealers might as well ac cept the fact now as ,later that the time, is near when every politician now iu office who does not realize that the people are desirous of gov ernment economy will be swept out of office like chaff before a whirl wind.

What we need is bigger and better re unions.—Ex. National Unity. Raymond Moley, the for>rer No. I New Deal brain truster, explains: in his illuminating series of articles, n the Saturday Evening Post that this break with Roosevelt became beiinite when the Chief Executive declared in 1936 thut "there is one issue iu this campaign—it’s myself." With that declaration Mr. Roose velt shattered all of Mr. Uoiey’s idealistic conceptions regarding the man he had helped place iu the White House For that declaration Mr Roose velt placed himself above country and party—above platform or the general welfare. In fffect be de clared ihat he was above criticism— hat what he did was right, irrespec tive of what others might think. In that declaration he was echoing the words of France’s Louis XIV; "The State-I am the State." Now, Mr RooBevelt has asked the c iuntry to observe national unity, in the present grave international situa tion. By all means, let’s .have na tional unity. But it must be nation al unity in support of American in stitutions — not behind any indivi dual. Mr. Roosevelt is not the Unit ed States of America—nor is be the federal government. To them we owe our support and allegiance, in line with Constitutional, American government, and not to a man who regards himself—personally—as the only issue.—Ex. ____ Eight At Brevard. Brevard, N.

Lyrm dear, I win give him both your letters. He Wffl find Captain Norwood, even if lie has to hunt all over Kadur.” Sie gave theman "emphatic orders in his own language, told him to go at once, watched him along the cor ridor and led Lynn through the brass gate to the women’s quarters. Knndhia waited, standing. When he heard the messenger’s footfall ietnrning along the corridor, he opened the door, admitted him, dosed the door, held out his hand, received both letters, glanced at them and returned to the messen ger the one that was addressed to Mrs. Harding. “Deliver that one. After that, keep out of sight for an hour. Then return and say that you have de livered the other letter to Captain Norwood. Go.” Rondhia opened the letter that was addressed to Norwood. He smiled. There was no heading: “Your unkindness about what you saw this morning does not make me wish to hurt you in return. There is something I wish to tell you. It is important. I hate myself for something that I said unintentional- iIy, under great strain. I can ex plain H.

He assumed an air of self-importance that he didn’t tee); of confidence that didn’t exist. He didn't wait for Rtmdhia to tell him to be seated, and he began to ipeak in Bengali. V Kmdhia interrupted himr “You may discontinue dosing Mrs. Harding. Miss Lynn -Harding has accepted an invitation to remain here aft the palace, so the sooner the aunt dears out of Kadur 'the better. Let her get well.” • ■ '1She has refused medicine. I had - t o imt . it on her breakfast food. And now she won’t eat. .She will recover quickly enough! There is _ Hbthing much the matter Iwith her.

Last night at supper, Norwood watched- your rfmngy by-play when you gave that peDet to Mrs. Harding. The way ; yon-switched the pellets-wasn’t clev er. Norwood suspects you.” “Captain Norwood is himself under suspicion,” the . Bengali answered. “He stands accused, does he not, of having accepted a bribe? Too told me to say so to Mrs. Harding. And I did.”"Yes. I was coming to that,” p.n»dhia interrupted. "I thought the news might influence her to keep Nuwood away. Now, look here: officers caught taking bribes, especially if they’re popular and well connected, very often commit sui cide. Norwood’s suicide would be appropriate, convenient and, in the circumstances, not suspicious. How do we go about it?”“We don’t!” the Bengali answered, without a second's hesitation.Randhia stared at him scornfully: “Well,” he remarked at last, “it migbt be dangerous to do. You and I must be careful.”The Bengali folded his hands across his stomach: “Very careful.” “Things mustn’t be traced back to us,” said Rundhia. “There is noth ing, so far, that can be traced back to mo: But I have the goods on jm>; and by God, if you don’t do what I tell you, you're in trouble.” Vea r looked forth from the Bengali’s eyes, but he said nothing. He crossed his knees and waited. aVorwood has got to be killed,” •aid Rundhia. “He is ih love with Mw» Lynn Harding. He hates me. He is suspicious by nature. He is oa the defensive. And he is the type of person whose idea of self- JeJense is to attack with every scrap of energy he has. Thatkindofper- SBD- is much too dangerous. You and I car't afford to let him live. If we can blame his death on the priests, tnat could be made to hold water. The priests bribed him. By this time, they probably kpow that the news of the bribe is out. It would be natural for them to murder Norwood, to stop his mouth.” “Well, why not let them! Why not leave it to them?” the Bengali re torted. “Because they won’t do it, you fool! Did you ever know a priest to do a thing at the right time to suit someone else? It will have to be done for them. Now here’s the idea:- they keep a hospice where mendi cants may five as long as they please, for no payment. There are three men in that hospice, who would kill their mothers and any one else for an ounce of opium. For two ounces, they would murder ten children apiece. You know my man Gulbaz?” “Too well. Some day that bad- mash will turn on you.” Rundhia smiled: “Long before that, dear doctor, he shall swallow one of your prescriptions! Summon Gulbaz. Give him money. I will “No, he didn’t ask me to , promise.” give you three hundred rupees, and you may keep the change. TeU Gidbaz he is to hire those three men to assassinate Norwood tonight. I don’t care how they do it, and I hope they get caught. They have been living for months in the temple hospice. Everyone will believe they are in the pay. of the priests. Do you understand?” . - ’‘I understand you. I.won’t do it. I have done, what I have done, be cause you knew, of former indiscre tions,, for. which you could have be trayed me to the law. And I will do what I will do, because I need the money. There it ends. I wish you wouldn’t keep me waiting. I am becoming nervous. I have drugged his medicine until he needs it five times daily. Now he is de manding one at bedtime. Why wait?”“Are you sure of the poison?” "Quite sure. It is the same that I gave you to test on the monkey that you packed in ice and sent to Delhi to be' autopsied. It is a vege table poison. It escapes analysis by all known methods.- It is one of five poiisons that ,baffle analysis, orice' it-has become absorbed by the blood. :They will find in your, uncle's stomach,.if they look, some traces of marijuana, which it can be proved that he liimself bought, and which I added to his tonic at his.own writ ten request. I advise , you to act quickly.” ' . Riindhia nodded:- “If you will at tend to. .-the killing of Norwood, I will let you do. the other job tonight. But I want Norwood but of thfe way.” There was a chill at Lynn’s heart. As she walked beside the Mahara nee into the room, that was called the boudoir but retained the sump tuous, old-fashioned splendors of a royal bibi-kana, she felt more self- critical than ever before in her life. Not even Aunty Harding’s cruelest accusations had made her feel as guilty, and as impotent to undo wrong. “Lynn darling, why are you si lent? I can-almost always count on you for chatter when I feel despond- ent.” “Maharanee, did you ever betray anyone?” “Let us sit here by the window,” said the Maharanee. . “Tegl me how it feels. Perhaps I can help, you to feel differently. You have helped me in so many ways. There is a law ' of compensation. Perhaps comes now my opportunity to do for you what yoii have done for me.” - “I hate myself^” Lynn answered. “You can’t change that. I don’t want it changed. If I didn’t hate myself for. what I’ve done, I shouldn’t be fit to live. The dread ful part is, that I can’t undo what I did. Oh, my God—” she put her head between heir hands “—I didn’t mean to do it. If I could cut out my tongue! But I said it. I can’t un say it..” “Lynn darling, did you promise Captain Norwood not to speak about Uiose diamonds?” “No. He didn’t ask me to prom ise. He took it for granted that I wouldn’t mention what any idiot could guess he hadn’t wanted me to see. Captain Norwood saw me kiss ing Rundhia. I know he did.” “Did he say so?” . “Of course he didn’t. And of course he won’t mention it, ever, to anyone else. The man is a gentle man. I don’t want him to despise me, yet it wouldn’t bother me if Rundhia did.”“Perhaps you don’t yet under stand Rundhia.” “Oh, yes I do. Rundhia is a beau tiful savage.” “Darling, did you ask him not to tell?” “I made it quite clear I was sorry I had told him.” “Well, you must remember that you told him something that con cerns the State of Kadur. You un covered to him the existence of a bribe that might have changed the destiny of Kadur by legalizing the priests’ possession of the diamond mine. I haven’t told you much about the diamond mine. It is supposed to be a secret. Do you call it a betray al that I have mentioned it to you?” “Don’t worry. I won’t tell!” Lynn answered. “I never want to hear diamonds mentioned again. How long will it take that messengfer to reach Captain Norwood?” “That depends on where Captain Norwood is. The messenger will have to IoOk for him. He has gone on horseback. I ordered him not to spare the horse. It might take him half an hour—an hour.” , “I can’t wait for an answer! I wish I had gone in search of him, myself. I haven’t any pride left. His career will be ruined, won’t it?” “But darling, he deserves to be ruined if he accepts, bribes. And if he is innocent he can'prove it.” “Do you believe that? I can easily doubt it,” Lynn answered. “I have never once been able to prove my innocence, against Aunty’s accusa tions. Not one single once! Not one time—ever. To Uiis minute, she believes everything she has ever said against me.” Then, suddenly: “What is Rundhia doing?” “I don’t know.” “Does he like to be despised?” . “Lynn dear, if you should despise him, I don’t know, what might hap pen. Rtmdhia loves you.” “Does he? Y1OU think so? Tell him I despise him! And I will, until he proves to me that he has done his absolute, utmost best to undo the cowardly wrong he has done to Cap tain Norwood.” “Lynn—” “Maharanee dear, won’t you please tell him? I mean it. He might believe you.” ■ . Ilie Maharanee sighed. She left Lynn and walked out of the room to find Rundhia. Lynn was seated in the armchair by the window, staring at an illus trated magazine, when the Maha ranee canie beck: “Darling, Rundhia has promised.” “What did he promise to do? What can he do?” “I mean, that Captain Norwood can be cleared of the charge of brib ery,” the Maharanee answered. “However, Rundhia made a condi tion.” “Maharanee dear!. Tell me. Don’t prepare me for it. I can take it without our pretending it’s some thing else.” “Very well,” said the Maharanee. '-‘Let .^is be quite frank with each other. Rundhia loves you/* “So says Rundhia.” “And I love you.” “I can believe that,” Lynn an swered. “Why else should you be so kind? I haven’t influence or mon ey." “You have personality,” the Ma haranee answered. “You have im agination and spirit. You can re deem Rundhia. So that when the day comes that he shall be Maha rajah of Kadur, he will be a great man. Rundhia will do anything for you—anything. Your influence will persuade him to do good things, of that I am sure. Even now, having known you only one day, for your sake he is willing to save Captain Norwood. But he makes conditions.” “Can’t he tell them to me?” “He has gone in search of that creature Gulbaz. Rundhia has tak en it for granted that you will ac cept the conditions, since he has ac cepted, as a command your wish that he should help Captain Nor wood.” Lynn almost lost her temper. She retorted: “I was treacherous. So was Rundhia. I don’t believe Cap tain Norwood has been! I won’t believe it until they prove it.” The Maharanee returned to her subject: “Rundhia insists that you mustn’t tell Captain Norwood whose influence it was that saved him. He demands—and I think that is fair, isn’t it?—Rundhia can’t afford to be compromised—he demands that if Captain Norwood should character istically force his way into your presence, you will not answer Nor wood’s questions.” "But I have asked Captain Nor wood to come and see me.” The Maharanee’s sympathy looked genuine. Lynn didn’t doubt it: “Lynn dear, Rundhia thinks that Captain Norwood probably believes you told about the diamonds be cause you knew that Captain Nor wood was embarrassed by your hav ing seen them, and you wished to punish him for remarks he had made, in the garden, last night. Run dhia thinks that perhaps Captain Norwood won't answer your letter.” Lynn was silent for a long time, thinking. The Maharanee watched her, reading, on' Lynn’s face, the course of the struggle between pride, humiliation, anger—and some other, western emotion that not even Lynn could have put into words. It was too simple. Too elementary. It escaped analysis. At last Lynn spoke: “I promise. I won’t tell Captain Norwood that Rundhia is helping him. But will Rundhia do it?” “For you he will do anything,” the Maharanee answered. CHAPTER XIV Norwood sat in his tent and checked Stoddart’s survey figures, found a couple of mistakes, correct ed them, admonished Stoddart and gave , the sergeant instructions for the following day. Nervously he walked the distance between the horse line and his tent. After the third of his pacings to and fro, he sat at the table in his tent and wrote a . letter to Lynn Harding, tore it up, and made sev eral more attempts. He tore up Uie last one, gathered all the scraps of paper into one heap, carried them to a cook-fire and burned the lot. He returned to his tent, scraped out a pipe, wrote another letter to Lynn Harding and tore up that one. It was getting on toward dark. The Kadur River was a splurge of crim son. He heard the hoof-beats of O’Leary’s horse at about the hour when he had first seen Lynn Hard ing in the Maharanee’s carriage. Norwood’s servant came and light ed the lamp in the tent.(TO BE CONTINUED) Bicycling Rapidly Becoming Popular French Pastime ' So popular has bicycling become in France that the French railways make up entire trains of bicycle cars, the same as mail trains, to handle the more than 7,500,000 bi cycles now running rampant over the hills and dales, towns and coun tryside of that nation, where one out of every six of the population owns a bicycle and stays on it most of the time from the cradle to the grave. Increased production of low- priced cars, the vast network of motor busses, reduced rates on rail ways, have all failed .to lure the French, men,-women and children, from their favorite-sport, bicycling. And, where they go, near or far, with them goes their bicycle, until, literally, they crowded the passen gers right ofi the trains during week ends and vacation seasons. Bicycle vacatiohists go directly by train to the center of the distant region chosen for the tour and their bicycles will follow by. special train within 24 hours. Or, by shipping one day ahead, will be awaiting the owner. After the holiday is-over, the bicycle can be sent back the same way. In Paris the visitor cannot help but be amazed at the thousands of bicyclists who weave their blissful way through traffic, single or tan dem, in groups of 10 or 20, ap parently with no thought of all-the motor traffic around them. In the Seine department in the Paris area alone, there are'm ore than 400,000 bicycle owners, but the north of France has even more, 430,000. The revenue from the bicycle own ers in France is nearly 100,000,000 francs in taxes. Lnmber Supply Saved The successful culmination ol the long fight to acquire the Carl Inn tract of giant sugar pines for addi tion to Yosemite National park saves thousands of acres of the dwindling supply of this rare tree from the lumberman’s ax. The purchase assures perpetual preservation for-all'the nation of a stand of trees many of which are over 200 feet high and which are ir replaceable. The Carl Inn tract borders the western boundary of the park and is one of the finest sugar pine stands in the world. The sugar pine is a giant among trees, growing to' a height of 240 feet and measuring five to eight feet in diameter. It is found only in California and Oregon, and provides majestic trees and beautiful forests. ”~ ~ ~ n M P R O V E D UNIFORM INTERNAtIONAL S UNDAY!CHOCL Lesson • By HABOIiD L. LUNDQUIST, D..D.

Lesson for October 22 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se* tected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. THE CITIZENS OF THE KINGDOM LESSON TEXT-Mattbew 5:1-16.GOLDEK TEXT—Let your light so shine before men. that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.—Matthew 5:16. Great aiid historic discourses are preserved with care and are read by succeeding generation? with profit and interest even thoilgh they are recognized to be the utterances of weak and fallible men. The les son before us presents what is “un doubtedly the greatest single dis course ever uttered by any teacher or statesman or philosopher in the whole history of the human race” (Smith). Take up your Bible and read the words of the text. These verses are addressed to be lievers, to those who have actually taken Christ as king of their lives. These beatitudes are not a substi tute for the gospel. They are not laws that the unbeliever can keep and thus be saved, for this would be utterly-impossible for anyone to do, except the one who has been born again. Only he who knows and has called upon the power and grace of God in. Christ can qualify to walk as a citizen of His kingdom. I. The Christian’s Eing (w . I, 2). The words which fell from the blessed lips of the Lord Jesus on that day as He sat on the mountain side were not the powerless declara tions of an earthly philosopher or statesman, but of the Son of God who had humbled Himself and be come the Son of Man who was still the King of kings and the Lord of lords. 5 you have not given glad and free allegiance to Him, do it now and you will then be ready to go on and learn of the Christian’s character and influence which may be your possession in Christ. U. The Christian’s Character (w . 3-12). The eight characteristics of the Christian here presented are worthy of extended individual attention, but we can offer only brief sugges tions. “Blessed are the poor in spirit” speaks of humility as a commend able quality. How contradictory the present-day philosophy which calls for self-assertion and self-reliance. But Jesus is not mistaken. The way into the kingdom of heaven is not that of assertive self-sufficiency. “Blessed are they that mourn.” The world does not believe that statement. It shuns the house ol mourning. It tries without avail to philosophize away the fact of sor row. The Christian, on the other hand, feels with his fellow, man and thus receives a blessing. •VI walked-a mile with Pleasure,She chattered all the way;But left me none the wiser For all she had to say. 'I walked a mile with Sorrow,And ne'er-a-word.said she;But, oh, the things I learned from her When Sorrow walked with me.” “Blessed are the meek.” Ah, .yes, poverty of spirit comes when a man rightly sees himself, and has a sym pathetic touch with sorrow. Then he “inherits the earth,” because he tru ly comes, to enjoy it as a place 'ol service and Christian growth, and not because he has a deed to a single foot of its soil, “Note that it is the hunger and thirst for righteousness, and not the possession of it, that is blessed” (Plummer). Self-satisfied people know nothing, of the. glory of having such'a hunger and thirst filled by God. Time fails, us to speak of the Christian’s spirit of mercy which in vites divine mercy; that purity of heart and absolute cleanness ^ of mind and sincerity of purpose which enable a man really to see God even in this impure world; that Christlike spirit which makes him a peacemaker in a fighting world— yes, that spirit which makes him like the Master in sweetly bearing unjustified persecution. These in deed are the marks of the man whc follows Christ as King. III. The Christian’s Inflnence (w . 13-16). “Salt” and "light” ! Whatpungent and powerful folk are the real fol lowers of Christ! Salt fights against rottenness, keeps things sweet and fresh. Dr. J. H. Jowett says, Christians “are to confront rottenness in poli tics; they are to meet it in the realm of business; they are to make for it in the field, of sport; they are' to be its enemies in the crowded streets of common intercourse; they are to defeat it in the. quiet and se questered ways of art and litera ture.; everywhere they are to pro vide thf antidote to corruption, and they are to overcome and destroy it.” Light has one function, namely, to illuminate. Wickedness and sin al ways love darkness, because their deeds are evil (read John 3:19-21). U Christ really dwells, in us we can not help but shed light about us wherever we go—a divine light Which drives out the darkness of sin, of ignorance, of superstition^ and re places it .with the sunlight of God.

Constipation Relief T h a t A ls o P ep sin -izes Stom ach When constipation brings on add indigestion, bloating, dizzy spells, gas, coated tongue, sour taste, and bad breath, your stomadi is probably loaded up with certain undigested food and your bowelsdon’t move. So you need both Pepsin to help break up fast that rich undigested food in your stomach, and Laxative Senna to putt the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be sure your laxative also contains Pepsin. Take Dr. Caldwell’s Laxative, because its Syrup Pepsin hel()s you gain that wonderful stomach-relief, while the Laxative Seona moves your bowels. Testsprovethe power of Pepsin to dissolve those lumps of undigested protein food which may linger in your stomach, to cause belching, gastric acidity and nausea. Tbis is how pepsin- izing your stomach helps relieve it of such distress. At the same time this medicine wakes up lazy nerves and muscles in your bowels to relieve your constipation. So see how much better you feel by taking the laxative that also puts Pepsin to work on that stomach discomfort, too, Even finicky children love to taste this pleasant Ianaily laxative.

PARTON EW YORK.—The aged president Republic of Panama, is, in spite ot his middle name, a practical man, D /*i* . cautious inPanama I-Zuer speech and ac- TalksAmerican tion. As the Unity, Isolation keynoter forth e in te r- American conference of foreign ministers at Panama, he sharply as sails totalitarianism and religious and racial persecution and invokes unity of the American republics in the spirit of constructive isolation for which our state department is proselyting just now. / Dr. Arosemena, a realistic veteran of Panamanian politics, has, in the past, accepted our “good neighbor” policy on grounds of enlightened self- interest. He has been keenly aware that the Canal Zone might be a major trouble spot, if war comes this way, and, re cently, discussing its defense, he said, “If they start shooting up the canal, they’ll be shooting at us, too, and that’s why we want to help defend it.” He was foreign minister of Pan ama from 1929 to 1936, elected pres ident in the latter year, and in years past has been sharply opposed to tlie United States on various issues. In the presidency, he has inclined much more in our direction. He is friendly and genial, rather in the cut of an enterprising business man. In the 1938 Lima convention, he joined the Brazilian delegation in accept ing the Roosevelt overtures for friendship and unity. 'T'HIS writer has heard several ex- pressions of astonishment over the eagerness of the Rev. Martin Niemoeller to fight for Nazi Ger many. It wasFreedom, Like Peace, Perhaps Is Indivisible only last June th a t the churches of d e m o c ratic countries throughout the world pro claimed him “the first Christian martyr of modem times” and set aside a Sunday for commemoration of his heroism. The submarine commander of the World war, hav ing become a great evangelical pas tor in Berlin, had led the non conformists in opposition to Nazi seizure of control of religion, and had gone to a concentration camp. The explanation of his back sliding as a martyr may be . found in the records of his ear lier career. He was an early and zealous ally of Hitler and his brown shirts, aiding in stamping ont' freedom, com placent in the face of pogroms and the wreck of all civil liber ties, ■ resistant only when his .church was assailed.(Consolidated Features—WNU ServlceiJ Neutrality Looks like a Ponderous iJuestion I, 1» r.

Observers also noticed that industrialized Germany got more industrial property, which she does not need, and that Russia received agricultural land of which she already has too much. The San and Vistula rivers form a major portion of the all “water” boundary, which cuts through the suburbs of Warsaw, ancient Polish capital, and gives Russia such important cities as Lwow, Brest. Litovsk and Wilno, historic Lithuanian city which Poland captured shortly after the World war.

Children Leam By Experience • MENTAL LIST OF POS- sible activities will do much toward solving problem of naughtiness. Childish energy demands outlet, and should be put to a constructive pur pose through suggestion. By LEUA MTJNSELL “ I WISH,” mourned Sue Tressel, 1 “I had something to do. I wish Arlene didn’t have the measles, or that I’d had them so I could go over and play with her.” “I expect,” smiled Mother, “that Arlene wishes much the same thing. She's just sick enough to have to stay in bed, and just well enough to want something to do. Maybe you could fix something for her to do. That would give you something to do, too.” “What?” “Arlene’s mother has a.little lap- board that Arlene could use for past ing. Of course, you wouldn’t want a big scrapbook if you were sick, but—” Sue’s face beamed. “I’ll make a little scrapbook—of some of my new notepaper,” she said delighted ly. “Arlene can handle that.” Mother punched the holes for her and she tied the sheets together with ribbon. Then she had the happiest kind pf a time finding and cutting out pretty pictures that would fit. When she had enough, Mother said she could carry them over herself. “It will be all right to go to the door.” So Sue trotted across the street with the scrapbook material and a bottle of paste. “Tomorrow we will think of some thing else,” said Mother. The next morning she laid out some maga zines, all of them open at paper dolls. “When you’re sick you like to play with paper dolls,” she said to Sue. “O, this is going to be a nice thing to do,” was the smiling re sponse. She began to sing and sang almost all the time she was cutting out the dolls and putting each doll and her wardrobe into a separate envelope. Then Mother brought a big envelope. “When you’re sick it’s nice to have something to smile over. Can you read what I have written?” she asked. Sue read: “These doth cannot take the measles from you, and Dressing them all toilI be something to do.” After enclosing the little envelopes she trotted across the street and left them at Arlene’s door. The third morning was bright and sunny. “How about taking Arlene a bit of outdoors?” suggested Moth er. “Do you know the names of the leaves of all the trees in our yard? See if you can think up a game for Arlene.” Help Chfldren When Necessary. . After a time Sue came funning in, her eyes shining, "Could I get some pieces of paper and pin a different leaf to each and let her write what she thinks their names are under them?" Mother nodded. "So that she need not think too hard, write the names for her on another sheet of paper, but don’t arrange the leaves in the same order. Tomorrow you can give her some more leaves with the name of each written underneath, and' she can change the names or the leaves on her sheets if any are wrong.” Soon Sue had samples of all the leaves in the yard and was earnest ly at work preparing , them for Ar lene. Mother had a large envelope ready, on which she had written: ' “Cut out each name and pin it tight. Tomorrow you'll see which names are right." Sue’s mother was not only under standing, but she was wise. She knew childish energy demanded an outlet. In this instance she made use of two fundamental principles. She gave Sue an objective: to help make Arlene happy, and she led Sue to think out what to do herself. Much of what we call naughtiness in children is lack of something to do. Let us keep our thinking caps handy and have, for ready use, a mental list of possible activities. As we use these, from time to time, let us give the children help where needed, but not to the extent of de stroying their own initiative. And let us help them to help in the things we dd. It’s sometimes tiresome to have them “messing around,” but that is the way they learn, And we mustn’t forget to appreciate the children’s efforts, no matter how crude—ignore them, or criticize too harshly, and we chill their enthusiasm. National Kindergarten Association IWNU Service.) Chinese Shampoos For many centuries before the West intruded upon the East, Chi nese women used hair shampoos, to achieve the sleek glossiness that is the principal pride of their coiffures. Bome of these shampoos were made of crushed mulberry leaves, rose and jasmine perfumed oils and “pao hua tzu”—pine tree shavings—the latter used for their resinous con tent, and balsamic odor.

S Household News Crusty, piping hot bran muffins are family favorites. See Recipe Below. For a Special Treat Serve Hot Breads Was there ever a family that didn’t adore hot breads? Biscuits that melt in your mouth, muffins that are feather-light and crusty and full of flavor, or a golden com bread with the tantalizing taste of bacon to make it even more delicious—all these are special treats for a hungry family. Serve hot muffins or flaky biscuits at the next church supper or the first fall dinner meeting of the guild, and watch them disappear like snowflakes on a warm spring day. It’s easy to achieve success with hot breads if you’ll follow just a few basic rules.

S t a r D u s t ★ Fame a Handicap if Come-Back at Seven ★ Gtmg 0. KfS Marlene By Virginia V ale----- I F THE public likes Lon Chaney Jr. inr*Of Mice and Men” he’s going to be one of the happiest young men in Hol lywood. For he’s severely handicapped in trying to carve a career for himself. As the son'of a famous father he is ex pected to be better than aver age; what would be success for somebody else is just a passing grade for him. He tried' out for the lead in “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” and didn’t realize how lucky he was not to get it until he saw a revival of the film recently. “It made me re alize more sharply than ever how good my father was,” he remarked. “And what a tough time anybody will have trying to live up to the part. Anything I might have done would have been a pale carbon copy.” Yet he had the courage to LON CHANEY JR. try to get that role, which many people consider one of the greatest screen performances his father ever gave. Lon Jr. is hoping that, as “Lennie” in "Of Mice and Men," he can take a long stride forward on the path that leads to success as igreat as his father’s. Hollywood was all interest when Lillian Gish began making tests for “Triumph Over Pain”—the prospect of her being co-starred in it with Ronald Colman made the town’s older inhabitants look way back to the days when Lillian went to Italy to screen “The White Sister,” with a young English actor tyho’d ap peared only on the stage booked to be her leading man. That engagement put Ronald Col umn into the movies to stay, but Lillian abandoned the screen for the stage a few years later, and now B whole new generation of movie goers will have to get ac quainted with her if she returns to It. Baby LeRoy, at the ripe old age of seven, is staging a comeback. (He used-to be the infant who nearly drove W. C. Fields mad, remem ber?) He’s Lonnie LeRoy how, and will make his return in “The Bis cuit Eater,” a story about a bird dog and two small boys. Part of the picture will be made at the bird dog trials in. Georgia. Charlie Chaplin’s long-awaited satire on dictators doesn’t sound so awfully subtle, if it's really true that in the picture two of them are known as “Adenoid Hinkly”, and “Gasolini.” But, subtle or not/ it’s sure to be funny, :— * — It looks as if Marlene Dietrich has decided to be herself; she stays around when she’s not in front of the cameras* in “Destry Rides Again,” instead of retiring to her dressing room, and the rest of toe cast has decided that she’s really regular. In the course of therpicture she has a battle with one/of the other girls, which makes one wonder if that fight between Paulette Goddard and Rosalind Russell in “The Wom en” has started a cycle. Remem ber what happened when Jiiihmy Cagney squashed a grapefruit in a girl’s face! — *— The popular program for Alec Templeton, the blind pianist, is heard on Monday nights over NBC. After running for years as a play and then being made into a.picture, "Abie’s Irish Rose” may land on the air as a serial, where it will probably run on forever and ever. In some of those serials practically nothing happens, because so much of the time is token up by the an nouncer, trying to whip up interest in what may take place the next day. At that rate,- "Abie’s Irish’ Rose” could run forever. ODDS AND, ENDS—Norma Shearer givei one of the belt performances of her career in “The Women—a picture that everybody should enjoy . . .

The showings in plaids and stripes includes types for every occasion, informal or formal. When you want informality the biggest daytime hit of the season is the richly colorful wool clan plaids and if you are a connoisseur on plaids you can get clan patternings and colorings that are authentic. Robin Hood reds, for est greens, golden yellows, radiant browns ,and heather tones mingle in one grand splurge of gay color that makes merry throughout the whole program of fashion this season and we mean just that for everything from hats to bags, gloves to wear with cloth coats and suits and en tire costume ensembles is being made of plaid (or stripes if you please) this season. As to formal evening occasion, have you seen the gorgeous metal- threaded silk and wool stripes that are being made into jackets, blouses and skirts for dine and dance wear? If not, the, joy of anticipation is yours. The newest dinner dresses contrast fabrics and colors after the manner shown to the right in the picture. In this instance the skirt is of yellow jersey, topped with a jacket-blouse of yellow metal cloth horizontally striped in exotic greens and orange, and stripes of glittering gold weave. A strikingly beautiful dinner gown is pictured below to the left. The shirtwaist top is .of lustrous black velvet. The long flared skirt of sheer wool is plaided in brilliant tones of gold, green, cyclamen and deep wine.. TWo large buttons con- M e t a l Q o t h Again metal cloth for the cocktail or dinner gown becomes first page news. The picture shows a flatter ing mode carried out in gold lame. The naivete of the smocking on the sleeves is offset by the luxuri ous dips of topaz and diamonds at the top of the midriff girdle. Not ohbr does fashion spotlight gowns made entirely of metal doth as in this instance but equally in favor are jacket blouses worn with velvet skirts. spicuously enhance at the waistline Which reminds us that designers are very enthusiastic in regard to ornamental buttons, either large and colorful like these, or veritable jewel pieces in their settings of col ored stones. If there is a school-faring maiden who has not turned plaid-minded this season during this epidemic of plaids now sweeping through fash ion realms be it known that she is certainly an exception to the rule. When you see such eye-oompelling outfits as that shown above to the right in the illustration one readily understands the reason why such a fuss and furor is being made over handsome wool plaids this fall. This most attractive daytime frock fash ioned of fine Scottidi clan wool plaid was selected for illustration from among a flock of gorgeous plaids displayed at a prevue showing of autumn and winter fashions present ed by the Style Creators of Chicago. It is typical of schoolgirl choices this season. Had you thought of a Roman striped wool jacket to wear with different skirts, of dark monotone wool? The biggest argument we can make in favor of such a selec tion is the stunning style pictured above to the left in the group. Here is an example of the effective.way in which designers are working out color alliances. Under this Roman striped wool jacket this lady of high fashion wears a chartreuse blouse . of isilk crepe draped from a demure neckline and rendered uneven at the waistline by a black serpentine belt. The plain skirt is of black wool. (Released by WesternNewspaper Union.) P o r c e l a i n C h a i n s S c o r i n g S u c c e s s With pottery and' china ' jewelry scoring such success, it has been only a. short step to the use of por celain for their chains. .Thinplastic links rather than metal for neck laces and bracelets are sometimes opaque and sometimes transparent and will not tarnish as some metals do. They are, of course, much light er than metal, and add the fin ishing touch to the whole scheme of lightweight jewelry. T h r e e i n O n e N e w D e s i g n i n C o a ts Something startlingly different in fur coats for next season is the three-in-one design. It is made as a jacket, skirt and sash. When the jacket and skirt are worn together, they make a full length coat, with the sash for a-belt. The jacket can be worn separately, as can the skirt, which, combined with the sash, forms a cape that will do for evening wear. - Winter.Bhies Last fall, and many preceding falls, saw you, ,tucking, away., until spnng all of yburblueclothes. This year that will not be necessary, for navy blue is to be worn while the snow falls; and winter blue, a new shade, will be worn as an acces sory color with black.

The source of supply there is flour and food sacks but even purchased by the yard it is an inexpensive, sturdy material for aprons and many other things. If you have friends who share your enthusiasm for interesting aprons, plan and cut them in a group; then trimmings may be exchanged and every piece-bag will produce something. The diagram shown here gives you cutting dimensions for the skirt part of a plain little apron and shows how to shape the waist line. Belts for the bibless type are rather wide now—two or two and a half inches finished. Ties are generally 4-inches wide and as long as you like. Now, do be daring when you come to pockets or adding a bib. Try an idea of your own. These gay unbleached muslin aprons are just sugges tions to get you started.

Regardless of the distance you mav have traveled or the place in which you are registered over night, the chances are that (he bed on which you repose was made under the supervision of Marshall R. Bailey, Elkin’s pioneer in the fur niture industry. Bailey bas served as general superintendent of the Elkin Furniture Company, Elkin’s oldest furniture industry for 32 years. He was experienced in fur niture manufacture, however, be fore he cast his lot in Elkin to be come one of the town’s foremost citizens. He moved to Elkin In 1907 from:Talladega, Ala., but his first experience in the industry was at Mocksville, then, at Salisbury. Bailey is a great nephew of Daniel Booue and without a doubt inherit ed some of,his kinsman's traits. He has among his treasured family re* lies an old-fashioned handloom which came down from the Daniel Boone home. Don’t get the im pression that Bailey is a native of the Holy Land when when you learn that he was born at Jericho near Jerusalem and lived at Cana for several years in early youth— for all of these places are in Dayie county —but perhaps Holy Land after all to a loyal sen.

Clark and Nye urge strict American neutrality, the interventionists are only too prone to deride them as traditional Widwestern isolationists. They are ridiculed as men who are parochial and strangers to the two great c< ceans and what lies beyond them. What. tg»n. do these critics say to Colonel Lindbergh?. Here is a man who has been & round. No American m iIitaryman has Had the opportunity - that Lind, berghhas enjoyed to see first hand the air and land power of Russia and Germany. From his visits to the Cliveden set, be also knows how deep and abiding were British concerns over democracy prior to the out> break of the war. And Lindbergh not only urged the strictest neutrali ty upon the United'States but as sored tbe nation that America is vir tually immune from invasion. Since Colonel Lindbergh cannot be discre dited as an isolationist, we wonder wbat.tack will be taken by the inter ventionists in disposing of his testi mony, founded so impressively upon primary.soared. teem ahd devotion than he congregation. And in all “W anted Parachute Republican Campaign On Way. J. Samuel White, who is tbe-pre sident of the White Furniture Com pany at Mebane, and... who is one of the stalwart Republicans. in North Caroliua, being chairman ot the fourth region of the RepublU can program committee, is busying himself these days going over voluminous reports which will be made tbe basis of his committee’s recommendations to tbe Republi- can national committee some time next montb. Mr. White, along, with other Re publican le'aders in the nation, is helping others of his party ,to map a way out of what they very point - Iy call “ a hole” and., is anything but pessimistic. He declares that by the time that Herbert Hoovet comes to this state on a "fishing” trip, things will be looking up in a business way. It will be recalled that be ran for lieutenant governor on the state GOP ticket in 1936 and polled some thing 2 0 0 .0 0 0 votes. H esayshe is in the furniture business first but party bolds a large place in his af fections, Sam White was astute .enough to know when he was nominated ou tbe Republican ticket to oppose W. P. Horton for lieutenant gov ernor of Noith Carolina that he didn’t have a chance of being elec- ed. But that didn't keep him from running just the same as if tbe De mocrats had not already settled things in their summer primaries. He is smart enough now to know that tbe American p:ople, although they depend on a iwo-pariy form of government, are more and more getting away Irom partisanship. He was not at liberty to disclose tbe details of the report which his program committee wii! make to the Republican national committee. "But I can tell you this,” he said, “It was worked out !with a view of tbe good of the country as a whole, not just for the Republi can party." Tbe committee of wuich Mr. White is a member and of which Glenn Frank is chairman has al ready spent approximately $8 5 ,0 0 0 in its iuve-tigations of what the country needs. None.of this went to the individual members of the committee but was used in paying tbe researchers—Republican name for its braintrusters. There was evidence, Mr. White says, of plen ty of need for repairs. The noted manufacturer of Me bane, when interviewed by a Greensboro News representative re cently, was asked who will be the next President. “ Do you really expect me to answer that? came back the manufacturer. “ I’ll just surprise you and. give you my pri. vate personal opinion fathered by a wish of course.

It begins to lock as if the Eighth Congressional District—and all of North Caralina—are in for another terrible political battle that in the last campaign rocked the state with its exposures of crooked doing) on the part of these ; “honest Demo* crats." The race in the Eighth was a 'his toric affair. C. B Defne, of Rock ingham suffered the same fate as did Dr. Ralph McDonald in .the gubernatorial conflict. He was.Jit- erally"counted out" and the voters of that district well know it. It .be. gins now to look as if Deane is going to give Representative W. 0. Bur- gin, another one of those thrillers. Giles Y. Newton, of Gibson, has already announced that he is a can didate for the seat occupied by the Lpxington man and friends all over the district are urging Deane to "toss his into the ring" and give them the opportunity to right ~tbe wrong of 1938. '• The race betweenDeaneand Bur- gin was so hot that it required the state board of elections to hold a number of sittings and then the courts had to finally close the case with "the people" losing.

' A FINE GIFT FO SO Oi H ,A / WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON N EW YORK--As we get it, Amos Alonzo Stagg, now in his fiftieth season ol football coaching, leads the boys in prayer just before the ;i,. n game starts.Stagg. Prays However, they OnlyThatBoys do not pray Give Their Best ‘hat they maywin, but tnst they may do their best. That would • be considerable for any outfit trained by Mr. Stagg. When his short-end College of the Pacific team turned in a seeming miracle recently by defeating the University of California, all reports agreed that the game was won on merit and not through any outside help. As the old saying goes, “A I wise old mail’s shadow is worth more than a young buzzard’s sword.” Mr. Stagg, now 11 years old, is, indeed, wise in strategy and diligent in performance. He has contributed to the. game the triple pass, the fake pass, the unbalanced line, the flanking for mation and several other dangerous devices, and he has come . along through the era of. change a ,jump or two ahead of his ri- ' vals in mastering and teaching ' ■ the long pass and the open for mation, much more adaptable than any of the elder statesmen of world politics. He says change and experiment have vastly improved football. This writer once knew an old- timer who worked with young Amos Alonzo Stagg when he was the champion hay-shoveler on the salt ‘•marshes around Newark bay. . My ^ inforfriant said young Stagg would figure, out a nice leverage on the fork handle, and move more hay with less effort, than any other man of the lot. He saved his earnings ' and -went to' Yale Theological school. After liis graduation, he found pub- .. . lie -speaking difficult, turned away from the ministry and became a .. coach at the Y. M. C. A. college at Springfield, Mass. In 1892, he went to Chicago and for 40 years was not only a "3 team builder but a “character s “ Wilder.” He forbade liquor, to- . : |P*COO: and profanity, and inade it ^tic|uv. Seven years ago, he . Tett jCliicago because of the re- ‘ flRmeiit-at-70 rule, renewed his gentle; exhortations at the Col leger of 'the Pacific. He keeps fit-by tennis and a jog up and down the road every day. He was also a demon. baseball player;in his.youth,.pitching Yale-to five successive ' championships. .. While' h e : is, naturally, tagged: the “Grand Old Man of. Football,”; his many admirers would take in a Jot more territory. '' IN OUR present attempt to remain neutral, there is much pulling and hauling over the .. opinions of John Bassett Moore and'Professor Philip Jessup. If any- W a rtu L o n g a s body knows W eL oveP pm p what interna- A ttendingW ar ‘j°nal law .Jf-they are the .two Americans who .would qualify, but it is still pretty foggy, as it was 300 years ago when old Hugo Gro- tius left it that way. The 79-year- old, spade-be_ardsd Mr.. Moore re signed from the world court in 1928 'to compile-75 volumes covering in-' ternational law and neutrality in the World , war. . . In 1922, after 37 years of ponder- - ing these matters, he wrote: ■ “So long as W Io^e glory, so long as we worship bravely, so . long as we thrill at the call of ' battle, so long win we love war. Mothers may say 'that they do not. raise their sons as food for • . cannon, but .when .. the- call comes, these same motliers will be the first to answer.” Mr. Moore vigorously opposed the Kellogg pact and all other such de vices and denounced the “callow striplings” and “shallow dupes” who offer them. As befits an au thority on neutrality, he parts his hair in the middle. He is probably America’s, most distinguished schol ar and authority in this field. • . tpOUR railroad presidents have 1 died in the last year.

No. 1833 is a version of it that may be worn for afternoon, because the pleats, in both the smock top and the ad justable slip skirt, give it a touch of dressiness. Make it of Bat crepe, thin wool or georgette. Good for a Whole Wardrobe. Unusually useful is the pretty frock for little girls (1836) because it can be made in two ways—with round collar and frills, or with the plain square neckline. Therefore you can thriftily make a whole wardrobe for your own small daughter, by using this simple pattern again and again. School cottons, like gingham or linen, as well as challis and jersey, are smart fabrics for it. No. 1833 is designed for sizes 14, 16. 18, 20, 40 and 42.

Efforts at fair government always appreciated. By HILDA RICHMOND CEVEN mothers were busily sew- ing in the living-room, while outside under the open windows their children played noisily. There had been a call for children’s gar ments for a large family whose home had been destroyed by fire. The sewing machines raced and nee dles flashed. Presently the children, exhausted from a wild game, sat down on the grass to rest, and their shrill young voices carried into the living-room at a time when the sewing machines happened to be si lent. “My mother never, never would do such a thing!” were the flrst words that were heard. “If I had been bad like Jimmy, she would have called me home, and if I’d had to be punished nobody would have seen it.” “Mine, too,” agreed three more young critics. “I’m glad my mother doesn’t do things like that,” spoke up a very earnest young voice. “And another thing she never does is to make me sit still when there’s company.” “No,” interrupted another, “if I come in with my hands and face washed clean and shake hands, then my mother tells me I may be ex cused to go and play.” “That’s the way my mother does. Ruth’s mother makes her sit still the whole time and it’s awful hard.” “Ruth would be as careful as any body, when there is company, not to get noisy if her mother would—” “Yes, my goodness! It’s hard to sit still tor an hour and have noth ing to play with, and that’s what Ruth’s mother wants her to do. I heard her scolding about it.” “Well, I’m glad my mother is not like Bob’s. Bob never gets a chance to choose about anything. His moth er decides where he shall go and what-he shall do, whether it’s im portant or not.” “My mother lets me have my say about most things." “So does mine.” This last was in chorus. Long before this, all conversation in the living-room had ceased, and the mothers were listening breath lessly. “I’m afraid they will begin on our faults if they continue this open forum,” said one mother. Children Ask Fair Government. “Let them,” said another. “It is doing us good to be praised, and the hearing of our faults will not hurt us.” “Bless their little hearts,” said a third, “I never dreamed they were such keen observers. And aren’t they loyal to us!” “And they are right,” said the hostess. “I think it is a shame the way Mrs. Lottey comes out with a switch in her hand to hunt her chil dren. She won’t injure their bod ies with that little stick, but I’m afraid she may injure her oppor tunity to gain their confidence, with her cast-iron methods of govern ment.” “I'll tell you what let’s do,” said another mother suddenly, wishing to prevent further criticism of their neighbor. “Let’s give our darling instructors a little treat. I have some ice cream in the refrigerator, and it will only take a minute to bring it over.” "Good! I baked fresh cookies this morning, and they will go nicely with the ice cream,” said another. The children were astonished at the feast suddenly spread before them as they sat on the grass, but they were not too astonished to do their part with their hearty young appetites.“Such a surprise!” “Why didn’t you tell us?” “May we call to Bob and his sis ter to come over?” “I’ll say .this, is swell!” ■ Chattraing and eating, and drink ing quantities of pink lemonade, the children continued their picnic until the last drop and crumb were con sumed, while the mothers, sewing silently, thanked God in their hearts that their little children saw and ap preciated their loving efforts at fair government, and they humbly asked for more light, more patience and more skill. Natlmial Kindergarten Association CWNU Service.) 42—39 Ultraviolet Meat Stprage Longer storage of meat and other food without spoiling or changes of color is made possible by the use of ultraviolet radiation combined with other more, usual food preservation practices, Professor Arthur W. Ewell of the Worcester Polytechnic insti tute told the American Society of Re frigerating Engineers at a recent meeting, according to Science Serv ice. The germ-killing effect of the radiation, now being set to work for bacterial purposes in a dozen dif ferent fields ranging from steriliz ing the air in hospital operating rooms to the packing industry, can' be attributed to its power of form ing ozone from the oxygen in the air, Professor Ewell declared. Householdlfeius Coffee and waffles are star performers for Sunday breakfast. See Recipe Below. At the Sound of the Breakfast Bell Five mornings a week there’s a last-minute scramble to get to school on time, and a mad dash to beat the boss to the office—and too frequently the all-important busi ness of eating breakfast is neglect ed. Maybe the breakfast menu needs revising, or needs a “beau ty treatment” to increase its ap petite appeal. If all homemak ers would join forces to raise the standard of American breakfasts, it would be a long step in the direction of happi ness and well being for the family. Breakfast needn’t be elaborate to be good, but it should consist of foods well chosen and well prepared to tempt the appetites of members of the family who aren’t ordinarily in terested in this first meal of the day.

GOLDEN TEXT—Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not Inherit the kingdom of God?—I Corinthians 6:9. “International Temperance Sun day—October 29, 1939.” Let us join with people the world over in mak ing our protest against the sale and use of intoxicating liquors. If ev ery Christian would declare himself on this matter now,' there would be a tremendous impact made on this universal problem and notice would be served on the liquor industry, on politicians, and on unbelieving mankind that Christianity intends to do something about it. We are far too docile and-quiet on such mat ters, when we ought to speak up for God and for our country. The lesson portions may seem a little unrelated, but study of them yields three important truths re garding the use of wine and strong drink. I. Lovers of Wine and Strong Drink Destroy Their Nation (Mic. 2:9-11). That statement may surprise some of our setostyled patriots who like to wave the flag and speak swelling words of devotion to our country and who at the same time love their intoxicating drinks. Mi- cah rightly points out that his peo ple had come to the place where they chose men to be prophets be cause they encouraged the people in the use of wine and strong drinks (v. 11). They must therefore expect the result which follows, namely, the destruction of the home and of the nation (w . 9, 10). We are all familiar with the claim that prohibition retarded the ad vancement of our nation and that its repeal would bring a return to higher moral standards, reduce crime, bring in prosperity, etc. The facts reveal that none of these Iiave come true. Crime has -increased by leaps and bounds under repeal, a situation so well known as to call for no proof. Moral standards have gone rapidly downward with the free use of liquor. If you don’t believe that, ask a policeman what goes on in our taverns, or just keep your eyes half open and you can see for yourself. Just now much is being made ol the many jobs which are supposed to have been created by the liquor industry. What are the facts? The Christian Herald tells us, “A million dollars spent for furniture would employ 339 persons, spent for bouts and shoes 336 persons, for home furnishings 191 persons, for booze just 95 persons.” And remember that jobs making the stuff that de stroys other jobs, are not worth hav ing. The man who drinks is helping to destroy his nation. n. Christians Do Not Drink, Be cause They Look for Christ’s Return (Luke 21:29-31, 34-36). If we a p e not-“looking for that blessed hope and the glorious ap pearing of the great God and.our Saviour Jesus Christ” (Titus 2:13), we should consider whether any ol the things mentioned in these verses have gained control in our lives: the cares of this life, surfeiting, or drunkenness. But • why speak to Christians about that? Surely they do not use intoxicants. Sadly enough, some do. Taking advantage of the fact that the Bible speaks of temperance rather than of absti nence, they seek to justify an in- dulgence in these things which they (and their neighbors) know is dis honoring to God and destructive of their testimony and usefulness in the community. Christian, Jesus is coming again! He may come today! In fact, the fig tree .(w. 29, 30), which is the nation Israel;‘has long been-shooting-forth new branches and bearing green leaves. The indications are that Christ is coming soon. Are you ready to meet Him? HI. Drunkards and Other Sinners Need to be-Saved (I Cor. 6:9-11). Being drunk is not a joke, even though thoughtless people laugh and cartoonists and writers of jokes use such unfortunates as their stock in trade.. Drunkenness is a foul and sinful: thing, classed by the apostle Paul with the lowest of human vices. Review the list as it is given in verses 9,and 10 (and by the way, -notice that covetousness is men-, tioned there .too) and place drunk; enness in its proper classification. Call it what it really-1s—sin, and' then call on the.One who Can save from sin mid ’ -then you will, be washed:, from your sin;; sanctified, and justified in the name .of the Iford Jesus (v. 11). In-Chiisf there is hope for the drunkard. A spiritual revival is - the ! real answer - to the liquor problem.. Let Us seek to prbr mote it even as we at the same time give. ourselVes to an intelligent and constructive battle against this destructive. force in the life, of oiir nation.

The word, meaning “one fourth better than others,” makes him a maharaja and a quarter. Lest his subjects forget that they have a 125-per cent monarch, his royal flag carries a quarter-sized duplicate directly beneath it.* * • When the Great Bed of Wear, which holds 12 sleepers, was pre sented to King Edward IV of Eng land in 1463, he employed a spe cial guardian and had prepared a list of rules of etiquette that all who slept in this bed had to ob serve for the peace and comfort of their bedfellows.* * * In Caracas, capital of Venezue la, a city with a population' of more than 150,000, all the 600-odd street intersections have their, own individual names, such as Las Gradillas or La Torre.

H. Smith, of Farmington, was busy weaving rugs. It was operated by atsoa of Mrs. Smith, an d attracted much attention. Mr. and Mrs. P. W. Hairston of R. 3 , were Mocksville visitors Monday. TheDavieFair. The exhibits at the Davie Fair last week were not as large as last year, but were of a high quality. A walk over the grounds was well worth the time spent. The crowds were small during tbe afternoons, but several thousand peop.e took in the fair in the evenings.There were 20 bead of cattle on exhibition, consisting of Guernsev. Jersey and Black Angus. A fine mare, with twin colts, owned by Harvey Blackwelder, were on exhibition The poultry, turkeys, ducks and guineas consisted of a number of breeds, but there were not so many entered as last year.The display of rakes, candies, pies, preserves, jellies, relishes, etc., were fine, and attracted many visitors The fl >wer display was beautiful.There was a large number of farm and field products on exhibit, con sisting of all kinds of grain, hay, cotton, tobacco, fruits and vegetables. The lowly persimmon and the noble pumpkin was also there in profusion, but we missed the watermelons.Thefree attractions at tbe fair were very good, among them being Lippincott. the magician, with his big fun and mystery show, the human iceberg and Ken and Marge Heath the motorcycle Dare-devils. Their acts were fine.The crowd at tbe fair Friday night was the largest that has ever been seen here at a fair. It resembled Masonic picnic night.

ERST iso UIESI B Y T A L B O T M U N D Y O TALBOT MUNDY—WNU SERVICE CHAPTER XIV—Continued —13— By the time O’Leary reached the tent, Norwood was in an easy camp- chair, cutting the pages of a new book and smoking as if there were nothing on earth to be troubled about. “That lamp ain’t fit to read by,” said O’Leary. “You’ll ruin your eyes. The only kind o’ engineer that can look after himself has a cou ple o’ fingers missing, along o’ hav ing learned what engineering is! Let me turn it out. I’ll fix it later.” “Come in. Sit down.” O’Leary blew out the lamp. Then he sat. It was not yet night out side, but it was too dark in the tent for them to see each other’s faces. “Meaning you!” said O’Leary. “I could have picked you off against that lamplight from a hundred yards away, aye and no one know who done it.” “Talk,” said Norwood. “I’m dry o’ talking. I’ve a throat like a baker’s oven.” “You shall have a drink present ly.” "Said the devil to the sinner! That Bengali doctor’s sore at someone. He’s scared. He’s roiled. He’s up to mischief. Like all them Bengal is, he’s a mixture of too many dif ferent kinds of education. He’s as full of spite as a scalded cat. He has imagination like the toothache. What he needs is an umbrella, to keep worry off with.” “Did he talk to you?” “Did he!—Time to post the sen tries?” “Stoddart is doing it now. Can’t you hear him?” “Yeh, but I know Stoddart.” “Stoddart has his orders. I will go the rounds presently. What did the Bengali doctor tell you? Come on now, out with it.” “The way I managed him was this,” said O’Leary. “I was looking in on Mrs.. Harding, cracking on I’d come to fix the plumbing, on ac count o’ my hearing her raising hell. She was doing a better job of that than you or I could. I understand she’s a widow. I don’t blame her husband for taking a chance on the nex’ world. She has her things pret ty near packed, in about a lorry load o’ trunks on the veranda. She was cussing out think the priests intend to murder me?” “No.” “Neither fio I.”“If they did intend to,” said O’Leary, “that Bengali doctor wouldn’t know about it.” “Well," said Norwood, “you’ve done nicely. You have a hundred and ten rupees for an hour’s work.” "Not me. I’m proud. I gave him back his ten rupees. He’s nothing but a babu doctor.” Norwood found the whiskey bottle in the dark. He poured a stiff drink and locked up the bottle, gave the drink to O’Leary, and walked off on his rounds to instruct the sentries. O’Leary waited for him outside the tent. He looked as nervous as the shadow of a tree that quivers in the evening wind. Twice he start ed to overtake Norwood, but thought better of it. At last when Norwood returned, he hesitated, and if Nor- "Why didn’t yon tell me sooner?” wood hadn’t faced him he might not have spoken. “Still here?” said. Norwood. “What’s on your mind?” ■ed of." less. It don’t take long to get Gul- baz’ goat.” “I can’t afford to lose Stoddart." “I’ll bring that big baby back as safe as if he rode a bathchair.” “Very well, I will tell Stoddart to go with you.” CHAPTER XV It had been an army lorry once, but it had fallen on evil days and was now a contractor’s truck, so it looked suitably unofficial. The Indi an driver had been commandeered by Moses and for one rupee eight an nas in lawful money had agreed to go anywhere, lawful or not. Inside, beneath the rotting and ragged can vas cover, Moses sat on the floor facing Sergeant Stoddart. “I thought this was all about a diamond mine,” said Stoddart. “You keep your fat head out o’ mischief and let problems alone,” said Moses. “Tonight’s no problem. It’s easy excep’ the consequences. We’re going to lose a good officer, one way or the other, and the ques tion is which.” “You half breeds are all alike,” said Stoddart. “You daren’t say what you think.” He stuck his thumb in the bowl of his pipe and struck another match. His eyes were in quisitive. “You don't mean—” “I mean you’re a fathead. That’s plain talk, isn’t it? Now it’s your turn. You tell me what you’re think ing about, plain words and no this, that, and the other. Come clean.” “Everyone in camp has heard it,” said Stoddart. "First I heard of it was from a coolie down by the riv er.” “Heard what?” “Someone’s been bribed.” “And you believe it?" “Long ago,” said Stoddart, “I gave up believing anything in India except pay-day and where there’s smoke there’s fire. I’ve known of officers burning their fingers. If the officer we’re thinking about took a bribe, he’ll be broke for it as sure as you and I sit in this truck. That’s one way we can lose him. What’s the other?” “He didn't take no bribe,” said Moses. “Me or you might take one —you special. But not him.” "They may have framed him,” said Stoddart. ,“They’ll frame your picture in a museum one o’ these days as the champion fathead that ever came even from England to look popeyed at.a puzzle. There’s three men in India who can’t he framed success ful, that’s to say unless they frame each other. One’s me. Another’s Captain High-Cockalorum Norwood. And the third is Gulbaz.” “Who’d want to frame you?” asked Stoddart. “You’re not worth it. What’s the other way we can lose the Captain?” “Woman." “He’s no womanizer,” said Stod- d art.: “You ought to be a reporter for the papers. You get all your facts right. I 'said woman. A woman, you fathead. One woman—half o’ two women. Can you figure that one?” “Well then, what woman are you talking about?” “Naming no. names, she’s at the palace.” "You mean Miss Lynn Harding? It’s all over the camp that Prince Rundhia has her number.” “You seen her?” asked Moses. “Yes,” said Stoddart, “I saw her on horseback riding with the Prince. She’s a good looker.” “How close did you look?” “Oh, a couple of hundred yards.” “Are you blind?” “I’ve better sight than you, you drunkard” “And you couldn’t tell, from two hundred yards away, that that girl’s a good ’un? You want to bet? D’you want to bet your month’s pay against mine that Norwood hasn’t made up his mind that he wants her?” Stoddart refilled his pipe with al most supernatural patience. “What are we up to tonight?” he demand ed. “Why are we here in this bloody truck? Where are we going?” “Didn’t he tell you?” “No, he told me to look after you.” “That’s what* I told him to tell you.” “All right, General Moses, where are we going? To the Promised Land?” “We’re going hunting a bribe.” “Who from?” “Gulbaz.” “How much?” “You may keep all you get.” “How much do you reckon we’ll get?” “Twice half o’ what he thinks it’s worth. We split it fifty-fifty, on ac count o’ your puritan nature and your good looks and your gift for not letting your head know what your brains are doing.” “What are we going to be bribed for?” “For our virtue. What else could he buy? Mine ain’t for sale, but yours is. He wants it for the travel ling wax-works o’ curiosities he’s taking along to tour India.” “AU right then, put it this way: why are We Worth bribing?” “We ain’t,” said Moses. “Speak for yourself. Whose money is he chucking away?” “You may bet your boots it isn’t his money. Considering the kind o’ badmash crook he is, that has to pay out money by the bucketful to keep his skin on his back and his Une o’ retreat open, Giilbaz is close. He’s so mean that a Scotch flea couldn’t get a living off him.” Moses raised the ' cover of the truck and took a quick glance at the narrow street. Then he low ered the cover and spoke: “We’U be there in a minute. I want you to get this, Stoddart. Try to understand it. It’s important. Gulbaz has it in for Captain Nor wood. That’s how big a sucker he is. He’s crafty. But he hasn’t sense enough to know that there’s two men in India can beat him. One’s me. The other’s Cockalorum Norwood. Catch-’em-aUve-o Norwood. One o' these days Gulbaz is going to sit in Norwood’s net, aUve and nasty. But not yet.” “Why not?” “None o’ your business. You’re only a fathead sergeant. You know nothing o’ the inside workings o’ things. But Gulbaz isn’t here in Kadur for his health, or for yours and mine either. He’s here to get Captain Norwood and make a profit at the same time. He’s got a game on, and he’s got it all timed to a minute. That’s why you’re here.” “There you go again,” said Stod dart. “Blowed if I understand you. Speak plain.” “I’ll say it slow,” said Moses. “Words o’ one syllable. If I was alone, and if Gulbaz was ready, he’d stick a knife into me. But seeing that you’re along, and you a sol dier that has cost the taxpayer a heap o’ money for upholding the blooming dignity of His Majesty the King, he’ll think twice about it. If I was stuck in the back it ’ud be a loss to the human race and a bull’s eye for Gulbaz. But they wouldn’t even write it up in the pa per.” “Not in the society column?” asked Stoddart. ( “But if it happened to you, half the sweating countryside ’ud have to turn out for your funeral, march ing slow, arms reversed, Dead March in SauL And after that, there’d be an investigation, two courts of enquiry, military and civil, plus a headache for the Maharajah and at least a column in the Bombay Times embellishing the record of a faithful Tommy Atkins.” ( T O B E C O N T I N U E D ) Mexico Reveals1 Many Interesting Varieties * of Cactus From Mexico come many interest ing species of the Cactaceae. Many of these have been discovered only recently, writes E. C. Hummel in Nature Magazine. One of the com paratively new discoveries is the Mamillaria hahniana, known as the Old Lady of Mexico. This was dis covered in 1929 in Central Mexico, where it grows in large clusters, completely cloaked in long, fine hair. During the blooming season it wears a crown of pink or rose flowers. Little less conspicuous is the crown of red berries that is later pushed from between the flowering tuber cles, to remain for weeks like a crown of rubies* on a white-haired lady. One of the most difficult plans to locate ' is Roseocactus ’ kotschubey- anus, which belongs to .the living rock group of the Cactaceae; On account of the shape of its tubercles, if carries the common name of deer- foot cactus. It has a large tuberous root and the entire plant is sunken entirely in the ground. Here, it is safe from the eyes of the collector until blooming time, when the large pink flowers that arise from the cen ter disclose its presence. Cephalocereus hoppenstedtii is one of the rarer of the old man group. It is also referred to as one of the torch cactuses, as it takes very little imagination to make it such, when moonlight or late sun light finds a reflector in the mass of beautiful white spines. In its natural habitat it reaches a height of ten meters. Not less fascinating than these normal forms are the strange shapes produced when something goes wrong with nature’s control of growth. The red cockscomb found in many gardens has been devel oped through many years of selec tion and is propagated from seed. In cactuses such forms are espe cially interesting. While the cause of this phenomenon is a contro versial subject, scientists agree that in certain cases it is hereditary. Highest Vacuum Vacuums so high that they cannot be measured with existing gages have been produced by a new tech nique and equipment recently per fected. The machine has no moving parts consisting only of electric wir ing and glassware.
