M E W YORK.—H aving enjoyed a

R ussell Willson, who recently took
Willson Can Pilot p e H n le n d e n t
‘Ship’ Annapolis o f th e U n ite d
Through Any Sea statJis N^ alacadem y, this
w riter feels that everything will be
shipshape a t Annapolis—com e w hat
m ay. When the then Com m ander
W illson deployed the destroyer fleet
around G reenland and L abrador,
shepherding hom e the arm y world
fliers, in 1924, we w ere stalking
Capt. Donald M acm illan, the explor
er, in the sub-A rctic, and found gra
cious hospitality on the com m and
e r’s destroyer, Law rence, a t Indian
harbor, Labrador.
H e’s an alert disciplinarian, with
out being in the least stiff-necked
about it. W hen we began issuing the
“L abrador G um drop,” the- spright-
liest piece in it w as w ritten by the
com m ander. He is tall, grave, slen
der, distinguished in appearance,
deliberate in speech, but quick and
: precise in action.
The latter becam e clear when
a black, squall socked the Law
rence one day, with alm ost the
suddenness of an explosion. W ith
a rock bottom under Indian har
bor, the ship had nothing to get
her book into. She started slith
ering and spinning like a Jap a
nese dancing m ouse. The shore
w as rocky and the chances for
a crack-up looked fairly good.
The com m ander’s job w as
som ething like chauffeuring a
skidding autom obile. We aren’t
sufficiently nautical to tell w hat
happened, but he brought th e '
ship through top-side up. A
young lieutenant told m e later
th a t it w as a brilliant piece of
seam anship.
U nder a generous naval lease-lend
plan, we borrowed the com m ander’s
fishing tackle and shotguns,' to shoot
puffins. We won the “w ar and re
turned the arm am ent. He, as one
would have known, m oved sm oothly
on up through grades to the post of
re a r adm iral.
He w as born in Sardinia, N. X.,
in 1883, put in two years- a t the
M assachusetts Institute of Tech
nology and transferred to An
napolis. In the W orld w ar, he
com m anded the sixth battle
squadron of the grand fleet. He
holds the N avy cross, the Vic
tory m edal and the V era Cruz
m edal. U nfortunately, there is
no file of the “ L abrador Gum
drop,” but I rem em ber that the
last issue w as a heartfelt tribute
to C om m ander W illson.

-M agnesite Stucco.
Q U ESTIO N : Som e 17 y ears ago
I stuccoed' m y ’house w ith m ag
nesite stucco. The m etal lath has
started rto show through and som e
cracks a re appearing. I am trying
to find a finish w hich w ill be nearly
like th e present gray to contrast
with the red tile roof.
A nsw er: O nce m agnesite stucco
has begun to disintegrate, there is
no perm anent m ethod of stopping
this condition. The only rem edy is
to rem ove the present stucco and re-
finish w ith a good Portland cem ent
stucco. Y ou can g et the desired
color from one of th e m akers of
colored stucco.
R enovating.
Q uestion: In doing over an old
farm house,.-1, intend , to strip w alls
and ceilings of all lath an d 'p laster,
and to ru n necessary pipes and con
duits before replastering. W ould it
be better to Use wood or m etal lath?
T here is no heat, and I do not expect
to put it in a t once, but w ill install
rise rs for steam or hot w ater w hile
th e plaster is off. W ould you prefer
steam o r hot w ater? W hy?
A nsw er: F o r a house th a t is to
be occupied only occasionally, I
should prefer som e form of circulat
ing w arm air. W ith both steam and
hot w ater, all w ater would have to
be drained off on leaving, and on
opening up the house, it would be
m any Hours before the system could
be filled and the radiators heated.
W ith w arm air, all of this would be
avoided. Do not overlook the need
for putting good m etal w eatherstrips
on all windows and outside doors.
V egetable Storeroom .
Q uestion: P lease give m e the re
quirem ents for building a cold room
for the storage of fruit, vegetables,
etc.
A nsw er: Enclose the a rea to be
used for th e storage room w ith a
rigid insulating board. U se four-
inch studding, and cover both sides
of th e w alls w ith the insulating
board. A sm all window in the par
tition w ill help ventilate the storage
room . The window should not be
opened so w ide as to ^Armit the
w arm a ir of the cellar to get into
th e cold room . The w alls and
bo ard s could be painted w ith alum i
n u m paint to keep any possible
dam pness from dam aging the insu
lating board, as w ell as provide ad
ditional insulation. The door m ust
fit snugly in the w all.
Sonndproof Doors.
Q uestion: A fter I have insulated
a w all to keep in the noise, how can
I m ake the door soundproof?
A nsw er: R easonable sound re
sistance m ay be obtained by apply
ing a felt stripping on the door
fram e, the felt strips to fit closely
around the door w hen closed. The
space betw een the door sill and the
bottom of the door is closed up by
installing a special type of felt strip,
w hich autom atically closes down on
the door saddle. Panel doors should
have the panels taken out, and the
spaces filled w ith a rigid insulating
board. The 'entire door is then cov
ered w ith insulating board on botl
sides.
P lastic P aint.
Q uestion: Is lim e ever used for
plastic paint w alls? W hat is a good
m edium rough finish? Can plastic
p ain t be put on over old plaster?
A re ceilings given the sam e texture
a s the w alls?
A nsw er: P lastic paint contains
glue o r som e other adhesive, and
w ill stick to any surface, including
old plaster. G ypsum plastic paint
is inexpensive, and you will get bet-
.te r results through buying it, than in
attem pting to m ix your own. The
d ealer from .whom you buy it should
h ave instruction sheets describing
th e different plastic finishes. Ceil
ings; a re usually finished sm ooth.
F ireplace H earth.
Q uestion: The specifications call
fo r a fire .brick floor in a fireplace.
Instead, th e ’builder has laid a con
crete floor, claim ing this is m ore
h e a t resisting than th e fire brick.
W e have our doubts about this aqd
w ould like, your opinion.
A nsw er: F ire brick m ight be
m ore satisfactory for- the purpose.
H ow ever, if the concrete w as laid
in sufficient thickness and proper
proportions it should prove service
able.
F ainting a H ouse.
Q uestion: In painting a fram e
house, is it advisable to put on a
coat of alum inum paint first? It so,
w hy? Is it m ore costly than ordi
n a ry paint?
A nsw er:’ A lum inum paint is m ost
w idely used for a prim ing coat on
new wood surfaces. I t m akes an
excellent base- for the following
co ats of paint. In repainting it is
n o t necessary. A lum inum paint
does co t cost m ore th an ordinary

Q uestion: How can paper be m ade
fireproof?
A nsw er: Soak it in a solution of
8 ounces boracic acid and 10 ouncen
bo rax in I gallon of w ater. F loat
the paper on th e liquid until thor
oughly saturated, and then hang up
to drip and dry.

Designers Use Chinese Styles
In Spring Jackets, Capes, Hats
, By CHERIENIGHOLAS
&
CPRING 1941 promises a program
of exciting new fashions. In
answer to the challenge flung to
American designers, to carry on the
style traditions of the world, there
has been projected into the field of
costume design a to-do and to-dare
spirit that makes for refreshingly
new ideas in clothes this season. Be
cause of the encouragement given
to originality and play of imagina
tion there is that “something dif
ferent” about current styling which
fashion-minded women welcome and
covet.
One of the m ost vital m ovem ents
is the change taking place in the sil
houette, especially in regard to.
suits. The new form ula calls fo r
longer jackets, straighter skirts and
modified shoulders, and in these
points is sounded the death knell-for
the carried-over suit you had hoped
w ould be good this season.
As to shoulders, they certainly are
under lively discussion. . So impor
tant has the shoulder theme become
that one is almost justified in coin
ing a slogan declaring that a dress,
suit or coat this season is only,as
chic as its shoulderline. Instead of
exaggerated padding , as heretofore
the tendency in- the newer versions
is toward gently sloping and subtly
rounded lines of-grace:
There are breathtaking innova
tions, too, that are adding zest to the
mode, not the least of which is the
Chinese influence that is seen in col
ors, in millinery (cOolie hats are the
latest), and m jackets and capes.
Success fo r the- new Chinese
m ovem ent w as m entioned a t “F ash
ion F utures,” th at brilliant event at
w hich authoritative style forecasts
w ere dram atically presented in a
spring prevue. B eauty and suavity
o f’ lines and sim plicity in Chinese
technique w ere pointed out in sev
e ral fetching evening w raps and
daytim e suits. Two of the latter are
pictured in the illustration here
w ith.
The jack et to the left credits
green as a leading color for spring.
The Chinese influence is apparent in
its neat, trim lines and the gentle,

count, and doubtless you w ill be
w earing a cape yourself for design
e rs a re turning them out in endless
types, and in every length from
short to- long.
M uch attention w ill be given to
cape linings. A dem ure m onotone

blues, reds and yellows nicely as

Easy to Make
Take a tip from sm art dressmak
ers and use polka dot drama , when
you make accessories for your spring
costumes. Sewing is really fun with
modem sewing machine equipment
and almost every locality ha£ a sew
ing center where you can Ieam to
make these smart accessories in an
afternoon. For this turban and bag
you will need three-quarters of a
yard of 36-inch, polka dot cotton
pique, or print silk, if you prefer.
An additional half-yard Of 39-inch
rayon taffeta for the bag lining and
a half yard of -buckram for bag re
inforcement.' By attaching the hem-
stitcher gadget to your machine you
can finish off all edge's to look pro
fessional.

CHRIST R E JEC TE D
LESSON TEXT—Luke 20:9*20.
GOLDEN TEXTi-Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you,
and shall say all manna* of evil against you
falsely, for my sake.—Matthew 5:11*
R ejection of C hrist by Israel a s a
nation is pictured in our lesson. We
know how the judgm ent of God has
com e upon th a t nation because of
its failure to receive H im and be
lieve on H im . God had to take the
vineyard from them and give it to
others (v. 16).
M en today reject C hrist, and we
find th a t the sin w hich causes them
to do so and the judgm ent w hich fol
lows are essentially the sam e as in
the case of Israel. T here is a reason
for C hrist rejection, and there is a
certain tim e of answ ering to God for
th at sin.
I. W hy M en R eject C hrist (w .
9-15).
Self-will, the very h eart of all sin,
underlies every refusal to let C hrist
have H is rightful control over our
lives. T here a re tw o forces which
m ay dom inate and direct m y life—
God’s w ill or self-will. Ju st a s love
of God is the essence of all virtue
(M att. 22:37-38), so love of self is
the essence of all sin.
The leaders of Israel, both politi
cal and religious, had one g reat fear
w hich dom inated all of th eir think
ing concerning Jesus; nam ely, th at
they would lose all their authority if
H e w ere recognized by the people
for w hat the leaders m ust have
know n H im to be—the Son of God,
and th eir rightful K ing. God had
entrusted to them as underservants
the care of H is vineyard, and in
th eir w icked greed they had deter
m ined -to have it all for them selves,
even though it m eant destroying the
Son and rightful H eir.
W e need only a m om ent’s reflec
tion to realize th a t this is exactly
w hat occurs every tim e som eone
now rejects C hrist. It is because in
self-will th at person decides th a t the
one who has a right to his life is
not to have it. T h e re ' are m any
sins, but this is the root sin of them
all.
n. W hat H appens W hen M en R e
je c t C hrist (w . 16-18).
Judgm ent. It cam e to Israel, as
all history even to this dark day so
strikingly testifies. Ju st so, it w ill
com e to every one who rejects
C hrist.
It is not a slight m a tte r of com
parative unim portance w hether a
m an accepts or rejects C hrist. He
likes to m ake it appear so, saying
th a t it is ju st som ething.about the
local church th a t he does not like, or
the preacher does not exactly suit
him ; or perchance he hides behind
the tim e-w orn excuse th a t there are
hypocrites in the church, -when in
doing so he proves th at he is him
self the w orst of hypocrites.
AU of these excuses do not hide
th e fact th at in self-will he is re
jecting God’s w ill for his life in
Christ.; A t the end of th at road he
w ill have to m eet the judgm ent of
God upon sin. God reads the heart,
know s the falsity of every excuse
and the real rebellion against C hrist,
w hich m ay be hidden from fellow
m en by sm ooth w ords and polite
m anners.
T ear off th at m ask, unbelieving
friend who m ay read these w ords.
F ace the tru th th at you are refus
ing C hrist’s authority because you
a re self-willed, and look, squarely
a t the fact th a t “it is appointed unto
m en once to die, and after this com -
eth the judgm ent” (H eb. 9:27. R . V .)
■ m . How M en R eject C hrist (w .
19, 20).
D eceit and treachery of the vilest
kind m arked the rejection of C hrist
by Israel’s leaders. They feared the
people, and lacking the authority to
condem n H im them selves they had
to obtain som e evidence- under
w hich the R om an law would have to
sentence H im : It is significant that
they could not find one b it of real
evidence against H im and had to
proceed by trickery and treachery.
C hrist rejection in our day is just
a s deceitful and treacherous, al
though it does not often appear so
outw ardly. A s a m atter of fact, the
leaders of Israel w ere outw ardly po
lite and careful. T hey sent spies
w ho could “feign them selves to be
ju st m en.” They “ feared the peo
ple” and did not d are to speak open
ly against H im .
M en cover up their m otives today.
Som e would w ish to excuse them
selves on the ground o f lack of
-knowledge, b u t in our land a t least
th a t is largely their own choice. Oth
e rs m ight say they have only been
careless, but on w hat.ground can one
justify neglect of a life and death
m atter? Som e blaine the sins of pro-
fessing1 C hristians, but this is an in
dividual m atter—you m ust answ er
for your own soul.
No m a tte r w hich w ay m an m ay
tu rn in seeking for an excuse for his
rejection of C hrist, if he is honest
he w ill have to adm it th a t he has
dealt deceitfully w ith God. W hen he
does that, he is ready in repentance
and foith to take C hrist as his
Saviour and Lord.

r o a r in the foyer, shocked by the
disem bodied voice w e both had
heard, he had let the elevator down,
w ithout checking it, on the cross
beam s th at guarded the shaft pit.
“ W hat w as it?” he babbled. “ J a ’
h e ar th at?”
Then I saw th at the c ar rested un
evenly on the beam s as though
som ething w ere pinned beneath one
side and I knew w hat th at last,
abruptly stilled outcry had m eant.• • *
“H e had done trapeze w ork,” I
told M iss A gatha. “ W hen the ele
vator w as a t the floor above him , it
w as easy for him to open the shaft
door below it and leap to the travel
ing cables. They’re the pow er ca
bles th at are attached to the bottom
of the car,”
The old lady sa t in h er living
room , cigarette in hand, highbaU
beside her. She w as personification
of the quiet that spread after tem
pest. The useless am bulance that
had tarried before the M orello had
gone aw ay. Shannon had left, w ith
Cochrane. A llegra had vanished. I-
hoped that I, too, m ight depart be
fore her return. M eanwhile, I gulped
m y drink and supplied, a t M iss Aga
tha’s insistence, those fragm ents of
the tragedy th at WeriB not already
hers.
“A pparently, then, w ith a thrust of
his foot he shut the open door and
w ent down unseen to the basem ent
beneath the car, dropping into the
elevator pit w hen the elevator h alt
ed at the foyer. Tonight, you see,
it didn’t stop. H e jum ped too late,
or else he lost count of the floors
and w as pinned betw een the pit
crossbeam s and the c ar floor.”
I drained m y glass.
M iss A gatha said:
“ So th at is why his hands w ere
grim ed the night after the m urder
and w hy he w ore no overcoat?”
“ R ight,” I answ ered. “ The ca
bles a re greased, and dirty. P er
haps he threw his overcoat into the
furnace. A t any ra te he w iped off
the knife and hid it in .th e base
m ent, for te a r som eone would stop
him w hen he w ent out into the
street.”
“ Pride killed him ,” the old lady
told m e. “ L et th a t be a w arning
to you, D t vid. H e had killed in
eelf-defense. A law yer no better
than Tertius G roesbeck could have
saved him . Lyon F e rrite r had too
m uch sense of dram a.”
“ H e'd been on the stage,” I point
ed out. “T hat’s why he spoke so
well, until he got excited, and then
lapsed into his native tongue. It
w as ju st a veneer he had acquired.”
“Odd, isn’t it," M iss A gatha
asked, “w hat you find w hen you pry
off veneer—odd and terrible, D avid?
I ’ll do no m ore prying. The Ppget
book will ngver be w ritten. People
th at throw stones should live in in
tact glass houses.” -
She peered at m e and m y face
seem ed to disappoint her.
“ U sually,” she prom pted, “you
grin a t m y epigram s. That’s been
one of several reasons I ’ve endured
you.” ■ •
“ Sorry,” I said. “I w as .thinking
of lone. Iie r father’s g o n e .. They
m ust have loved each other. It’s
going to be brutal for her.”
“ I sent A llegra to see her,” M iss
A gatha said briefly.
“ That w as generous.”
She shook her head.
“It's easy to be generous w hen
you’ve won. P resum ably she’ll be
financially secure, for she’ll inherit
Lyon’s—I m ean H orstm an’s—prop
erty. She’ll never have G rove now.
C rove w ill .know how nearly he w as
I n.u service «
trapped and how little she really
cared. And I can’t see him m arry
ing a widow who had been a dance-
hall hostess and w as accessory to
h er husband’s death. T here’s th a t
thing I call noblesse oblige. You
probably caU 'it snobbery.”
I grinned and rose, explaining that
I w as to m eet Cochrane a t the P ress
office a t seven. I fum bled badly
over m y farew ell, for I owed m uch
to the w om an who listened to m y
flounderings and offered m e no aid.
“ And tell,” I stum bled, “your
niece good-by fo r m e, too.”
H er sharp gray eyes dug into m e.
“I w onder,” asked M iss A gatha,
“if you think I’m the u tte r fool th at
I know you are, D avid M allory. You
talk as if w e never w ere to m eet
again.”
“ That,” I answ ered, “ is exactly
w hat I do m ean.” I had faced it
for the last half-hour. Q uarrels and
rasped feelings seem ed in the after-
m ath of tragedy trivial things, but
m y purpose ra n deeper than that.
By every m easurem ent one m ight
em ploy, A llegra w as out of m y reach
and the best tribute I could pay h e r
w as to leave her so.
The old lady had leaned forw ard
in h er effort to beat down m y eyes.
: “ David,” she said, “ life doesn't
begin a t fourteen and stay there.
W hat happened to the last person
who w ent in pride out of this apart
m ent should m ake you think a lit
tle. I ’m fond of you, w hich is m ore
than I adm it to m ost people. D on't
be a posturing idiot.”
“ M iss A gatha,” I said and it w as
h ard to speak d e arly , after the odd
tenderness I had heard in h e r voice,
“I love your niece. T hat sounds old-
fashioned.”
‘AU the im portant things in the
w orld are old-fashioned,” she told
m e. “ And that’s w hy you w ant to
m ake things as distressing as possi
ble for everyone concerned? B e
cause you love A Uegra?”
W hat I knew w as tru th seem ed
trite w hen spoken under h e r steady
regard. I w ent on:
‘I’ve got a job. A t about -fifty a
w eek. I can’t offer th a t to a girl
who has everything.”
“M y d ear boy,” said M iss Aga
tha and jerked h e r head, “m atch

besides I ’ve never fixed AUegra’s
w orth in doUars. H ave you?”
“T hat’s w hy,” I w ent on fast be
cause m y throat w as tightening,
“I ’m saying good-by. Probably this
also sounds idiotic to you, but I
love h er too dearly to ask h er to

“ R hetoric, rhetoric,” said M iss
A gatha and laid her hands on h er
chair’s w heels. “I hope new spaper

She propeUed herself through th a t

I picked up m y h a t and coat and
turned tow ard Uie haU, h alf m inded

AUegra stood there. I thought th at,

“ G oing?” she asked.

SrOUth W ithout Teeling* Baffles Physicians
T he case of C harles Leonard, In
dianapolis new sboy w ho is not sen
sitive to h eat o r cold, does not feel
pain and can not identity objects
through the sense of touch, is-a
baffling one for physicians.
T he 18-year-old carrier, who has
been exam ined a t intervals th e la st
tw o y ears by m edical authorities,
apparenU y has a ra re ailm ent be-
Ueved to have been caused Iqr elec
tric shock. Although his condition
causes m ore or less discom fort, it
is not regarded dangerous.
O n the other hand, physicians
seem unable to discover an effective
treatm ent.
In a series of tests given him , it
w as determ ined th a t the youth can
n o t distinguish betw een hot and cold
articles and he' apparently feels no
pain from pinching, pin pricks o r
even a solid blow. Physicians hand
ed him tw o test tubes, one extrem e
ly hot and the other- cold and Leon
a rd could not decide w hich w as the
heated one. H e 'says he-is aw are of
a slap on the back but can not de
term ine th e force o f . the blow.
Likew ise, a cut o r scratch causes
no discom fort other than bleeding.
L eonard exhibited a deep scratch
on his left forearm , c au se d w h en
h e fell against a w ire fence and
declared he experienced no pain
and noticed the injury only w hen
th e blood started.
A t the new sstand w here he is em -
ployed, L eonard said he w as scuf
fling recently w ith another c arrie r
and jokingly told the youth to “ h it
Sue hard.”
“The boy hit me on the chin hard
enough to ja r m y head back,” Leon
a rd said, “ but it didn’t h u rt a bit.
I knew I h ad been hit, of course,
but I couldn’t teU how hard.”
W inter and sum m er' a re all alike
to Leonard, w ith the exception that
in hot w eather he occasionally suf
fe rs from nose bleed. .
“I n ever feel'cold in w inter; even
though I ru n - around m ost of the
tim e w ithout an overcoat,” he said.
“ Several tim es la st w inter I w as
out for long periods w ith no coat
and m y sleeves rolled up. I didn’t
get cold, either.’^ 'r
Leonard .experienced th e electrio
shock, w hich is believed to be the
cause of his ailm ent, about .two
y ears ago. H e said th a t w hile he
and a com panion w ere in a factory
building, th a t had been dam aged by
fire he touched som e w ires th a t had
been exposed w hen a piece of m a
chinery w as m oved from th e bu rn
ing build in g ..
"T he w ires carried 220 volts,”
L eonard said.
“Soon after th e shock, I discov
ered I h ad little o r no sense of feel
ing w hen m y school teach er pinched
m e one day. A fter he had pinched'
m e tw o o r th ree tim es, the teacher
asked m e if I w ere V alk in g around
dead.’ I told him I w as not aw are
th a t h e had pinched m e.”
. L eonard said he had been m aking
reg u lar trip s to the hospital several
y ears for a checkup on a h e art ail
m en t he has had since childhood.
H e said physicians have told him
h is h e art condition is not serious
and th a t.it probably w ill disappear
after a few years.

Causes of Sty
And Means of
Preventing It
B y D B . JA M E S W . B A R T O N
(Beleased by Western Newspaper Union.)
C i A STY is really a sm all
/ k . boil and begins as a hard
swelling which form s a hard
lump and causes a swelling of
the whole lid and
s o m e tim e s a
bloodshot appear
ance of the sur
face of the eye
ball.”
In m ost cases it is due to
organisms which cause an in
fection in the little oil glands.
The opening of the oil gland
gets plugged up, the oil becomes
thick and a yellow pus forms.
W hen a sty occurs the first thought
naturally is to get rid of this disfig
uring boil or lum p.
The usual treatm ent
is the application of
hot cloths to bring
the little lum p to
a head and then
squeezing out th at
yellow cheesy m at
ter. In children the
mother, m ay give a
dose of castor oil as
p a r t, of the treat
m ent, w hich should
do moire good than
harm . .
W hat is needed is a “ building up”
treatm ent th at w ill strengthen the
ooay so m a t m e youngster w ill take
a greater interest in school and play.
The old fashioned but effective cod-
liver oil, plenty of fresh a ir and at
tention to regularity of bowel m ove
m ent w ill usually prevent the for
m ation of m ore stys.#
In m any cases the child’s blood is
thin and iron tonics and eating of
m eat—especially liver—is advisable.
C auses of Sty.
O ur eye specialists tell us that
som e stys a re due to eye strain and
other eye defects, but agree th a t in
the m ajority of cases the youngster
and the adult also, is below p a r
physically and needs a thorough ex
am ination by the fam ily physician
and dentist.
W hen there is a succession of stys,
one following after another, it m ay
be due to one infecting a nearby
surface of the eyelid, but it is m ore
likely to b e ' “strong evidence” th at
the patient'requires a tonic.
A sty m ay som etim es be prevent
ed from reaching full developm ent

Nervousness Affects
All Body* Processes
OSLER, the greatest physician of
m odern tim es, had Uiree ideals:
One, to do the day’s w ork w ell.and
not w orry about tom orrow . Second,
to act the Golden R ule. T hird, to cul
tivate a m easure of calm ness.
M ost Of us try to live up to the
first and second ideals, b u t m any,
if not m ost, of us fail in the third;
w e do not try to acquire th a t needed
calm ness of spirit.
In speakingvof the various sym p
tom s affecting the body processes
due to lack of calm ness or nerve
control, D r. W alter C. A lvarez,
M ayo clinic, in the Joinm al of the
A m erican M edical A ssociation says,
“ O ften a s I listen to the stories of
these patients, it seem s to m e th at
their sym ptom s can m ost easily be
explained a s due to instability of the
involuntary p a rt of the nervous sys
tem which causes it to play dis
concerting tricks on th e h eart, blood
vessels, digestive tra c t, kidneys and
skin. The patient w ill suffer w ith
one o r m ore of such sym ptom s as
dizziness, faintness, trem bling, chil
liness, flashes of heat, flushing of
the skin, sw eating, w aves of goose
flesh, palpitation, rapid or irregular
h e art beat, a ir hunger, quivering of
abdom en, intestinal cram ping, diar
rhoea, u rticaria (hives), bloating,
frequent urination, perhaps a block
ing of the nose, and fe a r of im pend
ing disaster.”
T hat tiredness, m ental and physi
cal, affects certain p arts of the brain
and deprives u s of som e of our calm
ness and so causes the above sym p
tom s is the belief of m any research
w orkers; also th a t disease; o r injury
can likew ise affect this p a rt of the
brain.
The thought then is th a t if you
find yourself easily upset, easily dis
couraged w ith sym ptom s pointing to
trouble in various organs, you should
undergo an exam ination by your
physician and dentist. If no infec
tion is found, try to acquire and
cultivate calm ness.

deaths w hich resu lt from driver or

"keep liquor put of the m an, or
keep m an out of the autom obile.”
The N ational Safety Council, dis
interested authority, estim ates that
one of every four fa ta l highw ay ac
cidents during 1940 involved a driv
e r o r a pedestrian reported to have
been drinking. The Council believes
th a t th is ' ratio m ay even under

Students of the situation stress

Costs Nobody
Anything
Through advertising the produ
cers and distributors get their
returns in the increase in busi
ness, for it has brought about
mass production, mass distribu
tion and mass buying.
It doesn’t cost the consumer anything
and it saves time in buying without so
much shopping around.
It is the best method of promoting
ales and has made it possible for ordi
iary people to enjoy many convenien
ces through mass production that other
wise only the rich could afford.
An ad in The Record goes into hund
•eds of homes in Davie and adjoining
counties and will more than pay the cost
of the investment
Why not phone No. I, and let us fig
ure with you on the cost of an ad. Our
rates are very reasonable.

or Sr ate prohibition. In making
this statement we may as well tto a
step further and sav that we are
not, and never have been, a- total
abstainer. Tbe writer has always
taken a drink whenever he wanted
one—and could get it—and doesn't
care a rap who knows it. He fre
quently goes for months without
tasting whisky and on*the other
band sometimes sits down wub con
genial friends and imbibes a quart
with the greatest complacenc*-.
Hours thus spent are very delight
ful. but we are free to confess that
“there is a difference in the morn
ing ” Constituted as we are, be
ing “bale fellow well met,“ ready
always to “ weep with those that
weep, and rejoice with those that
rejoice,” to be dry with those that
are dry and to drink with those
that are wet, we feel that, person
ally, prohibition is the thing for
us. We aIao believe that there are
thousands of other men similarly
constituted. If whisky is easily
get at-able they will drink it, and
if not get-at-able they won't go to
any great trouble to get it. We
are all better off without it, so
let's “le t'e rg o ."”

Washington is indeed first in the
hearts o | bis countiymeo. Wash
ington has no detractors. There
may come a time when another will
take his place in the affections of
the people, but that time is not yet
ripe. Lincoln stood between men
that now live and the prize they
coveted; thousands will tread the
earth whom he benefitted, anc* nei
ther class can forgive, for they are
of dav. But all those who lived
wheo Wasbingtou lived are gone;
no one survives; even the last body
servant, who confused memory with
hearsay, has departed babbling to
bia rest.
We know all of Washington we
will ever know; there are no more
documents to present, no partisan
witnesses to examine, no prejudi
ces to remove. H ispurityof pur
pose stands unimpeached; his stead
fast earnestness and sterling hon
esty are our priceless examples.
We love the man. We call him
Father.—Selected.

ffTo yon mothers and fathers I
have said ihi- before, but I shall
sav it again: Your boys are not
going to be sent into any foreign
wars. They are going into train
ing to form a force so strong that,
bv its very existence, it will keep
the threat of war away from our
shores.”
At New York be said flatly that
if reflected “there will be no war
for us.”
In their wisdom the people saw
proper to re elect Mr. Roosevelt.
Tbey did so because they BE
LIEVED in him.
They believed, above all, in his
assurance to them that, except for
an invasion Of the country, we
would not be plunged into the Eu
ropean or Asiatic conflict.
If the country had elected Mr.
Wiilkie, it would have had the
same faith in his peace promises as
it has in those of the President.
The people felt certain that the
President meant ail he said in his
three major campaign speeches.
The mothers and fathers that he
addressed at Cievelaud believed
wholly in what be said.
It is these momentous peace
pledges that overshadow all the
other pledges made to the people
during the campaign.
And a silent prayer goes upfrom
millions of hearts of a reunited peo
ple that President Roosevelt will
KEEP THE FAITH.

we are for him.
There is no more tireless and un

mantle that may be placed about
his shoulders. He is big of brain
and heart. He is truly a real Re.
publican, a follower of Abe Lincoln
and a gentleman of the first rank.
If the National Chairmanship be
comes vacant at any time and Jonaa
has a desire to fill if, we are cet
tain the old party could find no
more loyal and devoted and able
leader than the gentleman from
Lincolntou. He is courteous; he is
kind; he is considerate. Wbat’s,
more he know all the answers to
this game of politics but he would
never strike a foe below the belt
nor deliver a punch in the back.
He is a fighter of the old school
and never'pulls his punches,, but
his blows always strike full in the
face . '
Whether in the halls of Gongrsss,
where he once honored it with his

would wear the ermine with dig.

Burlington, Wisconsin, has a
Liars Club which has gained ’ pub.
Iicitv throughout the country. Each
vear the Derson who tells the Mg.
gest one (of course, it is all in fuu)
is given a prise.
Now it is called to your atteu
tinn that a lot of good talent has
been going-to waste arourd here all
these many veats and that
should have a Wilkes Liars Club in
order correlate activities bring to
light and put to work such superb
talent. •
We broached the'subject to one
of our staff of experts with the sug
gestion that perhaps membership in
the club should be exclusive. He
said. “ Yes, just put a fence around
the county.’'
But on second thought we leave
it open to all except Hitler, Musso-
lini, Stalin, Ribbeotrop and Goeb-
bels. They are in a class by them
selves.
And another thought presents it
self. We would exclude from com.
petition our staff of experts who
would do the judging. After, all,
there would be no justice in asking
you good people to butt your head
against a brick wait.
Which brings to mind the ac
count of the oroverbial goat in his
bout with the proverbial locomotive.
The engineer saw. a goat way ahead
on the track. He tooted the whis
tle. Insteadoffgettingoftfaetract
the goat set himself in a position of
combat and was going to make a
stand right there on the traok a.
gainst the onrusbing locomotive.
When it was all over the engineer
glanced back at the scattered re
mains of the goat- with this solilo
quy: “I admired vour nerve but
d— your judgment.”
So by making the above named
exceptions, the membership would
be for all else everywhere who wish
to submit a tall tale. The person
who tells the biggest whopper might
be given a cash prize or a gift The
book entitled “Truth Is Priceless”
would be good in lieu of cash.
We leave the suggestion with
you and welcome your sending in
eateries. Tall tales coined from
Grit, the Almanac or other publi
cations would not be acceptable.
They must be original—say, for in
stance, like the one you told your
wife that time you were so late get
ting in because of having to sober
up, etc •
As an added inducement, we
run the picture of the winner, who
would also be president of the club.
We leave the suggestion right here
and wait some eateries and com
ment before giving the simple rules,
regulations, etc.—Wilkes Patriot.
Rebake For LaGaardia.
M ayorLaGuardiaof New York
has been severely criticised forsug-
gesting that Congress by special act
exempt all policemen and firemen
from they are indispensable public
servants.
To exempt policemen and fire
men from military service of this
country doesn't strike us as being
democratic. Yet, the mayor of the
nation's largest city boats of bis
democracy. Plainly and badly, the
move is designed to make a privi
leged group of certain public em
ployes, and is dangerous.
In the administration of the Se
lective Service Act we do not think
the man in the city, whether he be
a fireman, a policeman, or a bank
cterk, should receive any prefer
ments over the boy on the farm.
Of course, Congress cannot, and will
pot, exempt Mayor LaGuardia’s
draft-eligible empleyes. — Ex.
We remember wheo Henry Ford
first announced bis revolutionary
' wage scale of $ 5 a day for men.
No'hing like Ir bad ever been sug
gested before Stranger than this,
the' wage scale was granted not be
cause demanded or because a strike
was threatened If it was not grant
ed. It was granted because Henry
believed that men should be treated
fairly and paid as well as the bus
iness will permit. At the time the
wage was announced business men
condemned Henry Ford and said
that he was demoralizing business,
but Henrv Ford staved by bis guns
and paid even better wages and
gave to bis men even larger bene,
fits. Henry Ford has done more
to elevate the scale ot wages and
the standard of living for working
people than any other man. -Today
Henry Ford is being persecuted by
the C. I O. and harassed by the
IaDor department of the govern
ment because he does not turn his
business, lock, stock and barrel,
over the radical labor organizations.
The United States government in
stead of giving aid in the matter,
should be standing up for and de
fending Henry Ford. -He should
be given honor and credit instead
of being harrassed and subjectsd to
the ingratitude of the very men for
whom be has always fought. The
situation as we see today is a move
ment of ingratitude on the part of
the workers and a lack of discern
ment on the part ef toe Federal
labor board,—Wilkes Hustler. '
Danger Ahead!
At present things are going good
iu this great free country of oars.
Three thousand miles separate us
from the danger of immediate in
vasion and the European war in on
ly so far as we are concerned.
War demands have added a sti
mulus to industry and the army of
the idle is 'being rapidly drawn into
employment. Prosperity is not a-
round the corner but actually in our
midst. Thereisnoscarcity of com
modities or money. The nation is
moving rapidly forward-
This condition, can last only a
limited time, at least only a very
few years. The economic topog
rapbv will change, and there is a
dangerous curves ahead. The was
must some day come to an end.
Then must come readjustment.
The country can negotiate the dan.
gerous curve only if the speed be
ing traveled Isn't too great. The
wise motorist keeps his car under
troil in order that be may make the
curve. Wise business men may
follow the example.—Soutn Pitts

Tilings To Remember.
Uerald W. Johnson, of the editori
al staff of the Baltimore Sun. admits
that Herbert Hoover is right unques
tionably right in his contention that
the greatest thing the United States
could do for itself would be to feed
the starving in the war- zones* But
he is just as certain that the great*
est of this achievement would be can
celed if, in tbe course of this com
mendable effort, we did an evil tiling
in breaking down the resistence to
tyranny. He contends that “we
have no right to try to attain this
honor by riveting their chains upon.
the slaves.”
And this bold, straight-thinking
newspaper man North Carolina's fine
contribution to national journalism,
comes to these conclusions:
fTo break the British blackade
would be to insure Hitler's victory.
Even to have tbe honor of feeding
the starving, we cannot and mUBt not
do that. If we can extend aid with
out condemming all Europe to per
manent slavery, we should by all
means do it. and most Americans
will be only to happy to do it; but
they propose to aid only tbe starving,
not H itler. . . . A dock at which a
food ship can unload is a dock at
which a submarine can take on tor
pedoes to be used to starve Britain
. We would have a nerve, indeed,
to demand that the British rist losing
the war in order to permit us to feed
the Belgains . . . Nevertheless the
project is important enough to justi
fy taking all risks save one, namely
the risk of helping Hitler win. There
is also the matter of saving tbe faith
in freedom of the people of the in
vaded countries
'We have no right to refuse, nor
do tbe American people feel any dis
position to refuse, this labor simply
because it may, be difficult, expen
sive and dangerous. But we have no
right to call on the British people to
socrifice themselves simply to per
mit us to display our generosity.”
Those are facts that should be
weighed carefully against our zeal
to give expression to our noble im
pulses* W ewantnonetosuffer the
pangs of hunger in the presence of
our plenty. But it is neither honor
able nor admirable in us to try to
force Britain to let down the gap for
her own destruction, or to continue
plague her with such proposals and
thus hold that embattled nation up
her neighbora aa a ruthless govern
ment indifferent to human misesy.—

H e w as a m ajo r in the new ly or

'If. our leasing and lending includes'

attack, or, p e rh a p s' to solve som e
new Nazi chem ical ruthlessness, of
which, it is reported, the B ritish
w ar office has evidence.
H e is a pioneer and expert in
gas w arfare and defense, but he
hates w ar and as an educator
has w orked diligently to out-
m ode and banish forever his
w ar gases. H e hastened to en

th at he would be m uch m ore
useful in gas research for the
bureau of m ines. From this bu
reau he later w as transferred to
the chem ical w arfare service.
■ He is an A lpinist, still clim bing
m ountains a t the age of 48. In
.1937, he scaled N orth Palisade
m ountain in the C alifornia Sierra, a
hazardous clim b of 14,254 feet. D ur

is blue-eyed, w ith ra th e r severe ped

table, showing fort!
H e com e.
I. The L ast P assover (w . 14-18).
O ur L ord looked forw ard w ith in
tense desire to the P assover w hich
H e now observed w ith H is disciples,
for it w as the last feast of th a t kind
recognized by God. AU th a t it had
foreshadow ed of deliverance and
hope w as fulfilled in H im who now
sa t a t the head of the table. H e
h ad m oved forw ard w ith resolute
purpose and desire to the day w hen
H is m ission on e arth w as to be ac
com plished, and H e w as to becom e
our P assover (I Cor. 5:7).
The fact th a t H e had looked for
w ard to it w ith desire does not in
any sense m inim ize the deep dark
ness of either G ethsem ane or Cal
vary. R em em ber th at, w hen in the
garden he faced th a t hour and
thought of the possibility of the cup
being taken from H im , H e said to
the F ath er, “N ot w hat I will, but
w hat thou w ilt.” P raying concern
ing the sam e m a tte r (in John 12:
27), H e said, “Now is m y soul
troubled; and w hat shall I say? F a
th er, save m e from this hour: but
for this cause cam e I unto this
hour.”
II. The F irst Com m union (w . 19,
20).
T aking the unleavened bread and
the unferm ented w ine of the P ass-
over, which had ju st been observed
by H im for the la st tim e, Jesus es
tablished a new feast, the C hristian
feast of rem em brance, w hich w e call
com m union o r the L ord’s table.
As we have already suggested, it
is a feast of rem em brance. “F o r
a s often as ye e at this bread, and
drink this cup ye do show the L ord’s
death till he com e” (I Cor. 11:26).
A t the L ord’s table H is followers find
spiritual strength in rem em bering
H is death for them , and they also
find joy as they rem em ber th a t H e
is to com e again. In doing so they
testify to the w orld th a t they, be
lieve in and cherish these truths.
This feast is also rightly called
"com m union,” for down througti the
ages and until H e does com e' the
saints of God have a t H is table sfreet
com m union, first of all w ith H im ,
and th e n : w ith one another.
W e also note th a t our L ord spoke
of the cup as “ m y blood of the new
testam ent.” . Tbe w ord “ testam ent”
m eans “ covenant.” The L ord’s'’ta
ble therefore speaks' of our alle
giance to H im , of our loyalty to, our
Lord, and our devotion to H is serv
ice. The C hristian Church therefore
speaks of the com m union service as
a sacram ent, a w ord taken from
the L atin “sacram entum ,” m eaning
oath, and essentially an oath of al
legiance.
III. B etrayal and Strife (w .; 21-
30).
Som eone w ill say, “ T hat point
does not belong w ith the other two.
B oth the feast of the P a sso v erissd
the Lord’s Supper are for the joyful
rem em brance of deliverance and re
dem ption.” The objection is w ell
taken except for one thing—w e are
dealing w ith hum an beings a s they
are, not as they should be and could
be by the grace of God.
H ere in the inner circle o f;th e
tw elve there w as one' tra ito r/ i t
seem s im possible, but apparently
Ju d as had m aintained such outw ard
conduct a s to tu rn no suspicion in
his direction, even though all along
he had in his h e art the blackest of
treachery against his Lord. It is a
sad and soul-searching fact w hich
is here revealed, th a t it is possible
for one to m ake a high profession
of faith in C hrist and even so to live
a s to give no cause for criticism ,
and' y et to be' unregenerate and in
fact the enem y of C hrist.
. W hat about th e strife regarding
position? Sham e on us, for it istfll
goes on in the church. ' N ot even
Uie rem em brance of o u r:. Lord’s
death and the rem inder th a t He. is
com ing again is enough to keep m en
from w anting to be greatest.
M ay the sp irit of C hrist get hold
of som e self-seeking C hristian a s he
today sees C hrist as the One w hose
body w as broken and w hpse blood
w as shed for him .

Only two more days of ground,
hog weather. The hog has been
very nice to ns this winter, thanks
to our Sheffield committee.
We extend a cordial invitation to
all our subscribers to drop In a see
us when they come to court next
week. Make our office your head,
quarters. A warm welcome awaits
you.
Polks can get a lot of facts by
reading. We didn’t know until
last week that there was a W. O.
W. Camp in Davie; that we had a
Rick Park; that there was a Came.
Iite church jn tbe county, and that
Davie had five high schools.
Hundreds of our subscibers have
let their subscriptions expire. We
trust that ail those who see an X
mark opposite their names on tbe
margin of their oaper this week,
will bring, send or mail us their re.
newal. Our creditors need what
we are owing them. Unless you
pay us we cannot pay them. Please
help us now.
“The Hell You Say”
We understand that W. L. Moore
Davie county member of tbe North
Carolina legislature, has introduced
a bill to elect county commissioners
in Davie for a term of four years,
and that the present board of com
missioners serve until December,
1944 The three men who are
serving in this capacity are good
men, but thev were elected for only
two years and we don't be'ieve any
one man who has a right to have
their terms extended for four vears
tenure in office to which they were
elected for only two years. Such a
low savors too much of dictatorship.
No one man should be allowed to
speak for the more than six thous
and voters in Davie county, when
it comes to extending their terms
for two years longer than the voters
elected them to serve. Such high
banded tactics will hurt any party.
New Fight Over Dam.
It seems that there is going to he
a battle over the High Point power
dum that was started on the Yad
kin River, 17 miles from Mocks-
ville, a year or two ago. A large
group of High Point business men
have signed a petition asking re
presentatives in tbe General As
sembly to kill any legislation offer,
ed to further tbe project. The
WPA agency is said to be in favor
of tbe dam being built, and will
ask Governor Broughton to support'
High Point in its efforts to build
the dam and operate the power
system, lust what will be dome a.
bout the matter is not known at
this writing.

Steal Much Meat
Some unknown thief or thieves
visited the Booie Nursey four miles
north west of Mocksville some time
during the night of March 2nd,
and helped themselves to five large
hams, weighing about 225 pounds,
one shoulder and a quantity of sau
sage. Mr. Booie says he has no
idea who stole his meat. Here’s
hoping that tbe thief will eat so
much ham at one time that he will
get so sick that be will never steal
another ham.

Telephone Company To
Make Changes.
A new and improved method of
issuing telephone bills, known as
rotation billing, will be placed in
effect in Mocksville by the Central
Electric & Teiephone Company on
March igtb, it is announced by
Mrs. J. M. Horn, Cashier. After
March 1. telephone bills in this
community will be dated the 19th
of each month.
“ We r.re making this change in
the interest of greater efficiency,
and so that we can provide better
hilling service to our patrons,” Mrs.
Horn said Under rotation billing,
the statements sent out will be nea.
ter and more readable, as figures
written in by band will be elemi-
nated and all items printed.
Another change in billing is that
long distance charges will be in
cluded up to the date of tbe bill.
At present, with all bills issued on
the first of the month, long dist
ance charges are included onlv up
to the 16th of the preceding month
First bills under the new method
involve a change tn billing date and
will cover chorges for a period of
less than one month. Thereafter,
each bill will cover charges'for one
month’s local telephone service fol
lowing tbe date of the bill and long
distance charges for the month pre
ceding the date of bill.
The change in billing date will
not affect the amount of charges In
any way. Every community in
which the Central Electric & Tele-
Dhone Companv operates will be
changed to tbe new billing method,
Mrs Horn stated.

To sign a crew is one filing; to
keep all hands aboard till sailing
tim e is another. A t dusk, C aptain
K een m oved the Sunset from the
w harf out into the stream to w ait
for the m orning tide. She w as a
full-rigged ship of three hundred and
forty-seven tons burden, bound for
the F iji Islands to load w ith sandal
wood for C hinese and Indian ports;
but she w as under ch arter to the
M ission B oard to c arry certain
freight and passengers from San
Francisco to Honolulu and to the
M arquesas, on the w ay. “I w ant to
give the m en overnight to sober
iff before the m issionaries com e
aboard, M r. C hase,” C aptain K een
told the m ate a s the ship sw ung to
h e r anchor. “A nd another thing.
A s long as they’re w ith us, I’ll have
no going ashore a t Honolulu, o r a t
th e Islands, nor any native girls
com ing on the ship a t alL”
The R everend John G ale and M rs.
G ale w ere returning to th eir post in
M icronesia after a y ear’s leave a t
hom e; and the R everend G eorge
M cA usland w ent to serve his ap
prenticeship w ith them . M cA usland
w as not a young m an as years go,
but his training for the m inistry w as
only ju st concluded. H e w as rath
e r sm all, and decidedly thin. H e
w as, actually, thirty-eight y ears old.
John G ale, since they m et a d ay o r
tw o before, had studied his new as
sistant. H e had som e m isgivings.
M cA usland seem ed full of a restless
earn estn e ss;' but the old m inister
knew th a t too m uch zeal could be
a s dangerous a s too little.
A boardship, M rs. G ale w ent to h er
cabin to settle h e r belongings th ere;
but John G ale and M cAusland
stayed on deck to w atch the busi
ness of departure.
"W hat decided you to becom e a
m issionary?” G ale asked.
“ W hy, sir, a t the S em inary I read
a g re a t deal about the m ission to
the Sandw ich Islands, and—I w ant
to be like the m en w ho led th a t
w ork. They did so m uch, and ev
eryone loved them .” M cAusIand
added hum bly: " I w ant to help peo
ple, and—to be loved. I ’m pretty
clum sy about it, though; about m ak
ing friends.”
T he other suggested: “ The trick is
to like people. People like a m an
who seem s to like them .” H e asked:
“ B ut w hat turned you tow ard the
m inistry, a t your age?”
M cA usland answ ered frankly: “I’d
killed a m an, in N evada CiQr, in the
m ines.” T here m ay have been su r
prise in the older m an’s quick
glance, and an unspoken question,
for th e other explained:. “ I suppose
I don’t look like a—m an of violence;
but I lost m y tem per. H e w as drunk,
and shooting a t m e, and I threw a
pickaxe a t him . I t h it him in the
head.”
John G ale thought he would have
to read ju st his .estim ates of this
young m an. “ W asn’t th a t—ju st an
accident?” he suggested reassur
ingly.
“ I suppose a m an is responsible
even for his accidents,” M cA usland
insisted. “H e had no fam ily. T here
w as nothing I could do directly; but
I w anted to find som e w ay to—
atone."
C aptain K een, one eye on h is ship,
joined them w ith som e casual w ord.
M cA usland w alked forw ard to w atch
them c at and fish tb s anchor, and
John G ale looked arter him , and
after a m om ent he sm iled and asked
the C aptain:
“ W ould you tak e th a t young m an
for a ” —he hesitated, used M cAus-
land’s ow n phrase—“a m an of vio
lence?”
The C aptain said w isely: “ T here’s
n ever any knowing. The quietest
little m an I ev er knew killed four
M alay p irates w ith a caps’an b a r.”
“H e and I a re going to w ork to
gether, these next y ears,” John G ale
explained. “ I’m trying to find out
w hat so rt of m an he is.”
C aptain K een said: “ You’ll find
out, presently. B e in g sh u tu p o n tiie
sam e ship w ith a m an, you com e to
know him . The sea strip s him
down, w ears him dow n till w hat’s
inside him show s through.”
The old m inister nodded; and dur
ing the days th a t followed, w hile
th e Sunset took b a r peaceful w ay
across the peaceful sea, he som e
tim es thought th a t M cA usland w as
no m ore th an an enthusiastic boy.'
The first m orning a t sea, he him .
self cam e on deck to find the other
bare-footed, his sober black trousers
rolled up his thin shins, pushing a
holystone up and dow n the plank
ing jm der the instruction of the
sailor w ith the parro t. The sailor’s
nam e w as C orkran; and the tw o
w ere laughing together a t M cAus-
land’s aw kw ardness. T he p arro t
w atched G eorge too, its head
cocked, and presently it nipped
C orkran’s e a r and said wheedlingly.:
“ M ighty pretty. M ighty p retty !”
C orkran laughed and clapped M c-
A usland on the'sh o u ld er. “T here,
R everence!” he said. “ T hat’s P a t’s
w ay of saying he takes to you.”
The friendship betw een these two
developed rapidly. C orkran w as an
able seam an, above the level of his
fellows in the forecastle; and he did
his w ork so cheerfully and com plete
ly th a t he had certain tacit privi
leges. W henever he w as on deck,
he and G eorge w ere ap t to be to
gether. M cA usland w as intensely
curious about ship’s business. H e
w orked under C orkran’s instruction
to learn the knots and bends and
hitches, and how to seize and splice,
and serve.
John G ale, observing the friend
ship betw een M cA usland and Cork-
ran , tried to understand its basis.
H e saw th a t w hen they w ere togeth
er, G eorge w as alw ays the listener.
The m ate called C orkran to som e
duty; and G eorge, turning, saw John
G ale n ear them , and stopped beside
him . “ C orkran’s a strange m an,”
he said, and he colored in a slow
w ay. "M ost m en a re asham ed of
th eir vices, b u t he brags about his.
H e’s sim ply an anim al.”
The older m an suggested: "Y ou
can’t alw ays judge m en by the w ay
they talk, G eorge.”
. “I suppose not.” M cA usland
laughed uncertainly. ' "A nd—I like
him , in spite of w hat he is,” he ad
m itted. “ I don’t know w hy.”
One late afternoon, G eorge, under
C orkran’s instruction, w as learning
to put an eye-splice in a discarded
piece of eight-inch cable w hen the
m asthead m an sighted the first dis
ta n t peaks above Honolulu. G eorge
laid down spike and m aul and
sw arm ed aloft to see for him self;
and w hen presently he. descended,
She looked after him , h e r eyes
sobered by hurt.
dropping from the ratlines the la st
six or eight feet to the deck, he
stepped on the m arlinspike w here he
had le ft it. It rolled under h im ; and
the resu lt w as a severely sprained
ankle. John G ale bandaged the
h u rt; b u t in the m orning w hen they
w ere anchored M cA usland w as too
lam e to w alk. The Sunset would
lie in harbor overnight w hile C aptain
K een lightered off the freight con
signed to the H onolulu m ission but
M r. and M rs. G ale w ent to lodge
w ith friends ashore, and they urged
George, despite his lam eness, to
com e along. Vlhen G eorge decided
to stay aboard, M rs. G ale thought
he w as shyly relieved a t having a
valid excuse for avoiding a casual
m eeting w ith m any .strangers.
A shore, she and h er husband found
th a t tw o other passengers would
board the Sunset here. One w as
Joseph N eargood, a tall young M ar-
quesan convert trained in the col
lege a t O ahu, going now to take bis
place in the native m ission a t F atu-
hiva. The other w as M ary D oncas
te r. H er father and m other had es
tablished them selves tw enty years
ago on one of the sm aller northern
islands of th e M arquesan - group,
w hich E phraim D oncaster called
G ilead. M ary w as bora th ere a
y e ar later, and lived there till w hen
she w as ten y ears old th e y sent h e r
hom e to N ew B edford to school.
N ow she w as returning to them ;
and John G ale, w hen h e had talked
w ith her, approved M ary m ightily.
H e and M rs. G ale agreed betw een
them selves th a t it would be good for
M cA usland to have th e girl’s com
pany aboard the Sunset during the
re st of th e voyage to GUead. W hen
they w ere all rowed, out to the. ship
next afternoon a little before sailing
tim e, the old m an looked forw ard to.
w atching M cA usland’s fa c e' light
w ith pleasure a t first sight of M ary;
bu t G eorge w as not on deck to. g reet
them , and John G ale found' him in
h is bunk w ith a slight tem perature,
presum ably from the pain- of bis
hurt. ■
G eorge did not. com e to supper,
so he did not see M ary till next
m orning. John G ale had told him
she w as aboard, but—afraid of say
ing too m uch—he said only: “ She’s
the daughter of E phraim D oncaster,
the m issionary a t G ilead.” G eorge
inattentively expected M ary to be
like a younger edition of M rs.
G ale. M rs.' G ale w as pretty a s 'pa
p e r flowers under a glass case, w ith
a pale and delicate beauty th a t
w ould not disturb a m an ; b u t M ary
w as m ightily disturbing, beautiful
not w ith youth alone but already
ripely. The ship’s carpenter had
fashioned a crutch for G eorge out of
a m op-handle and a block of tim ber
cut to fit the m inister’s shoulder
socket. W hen G eorge hobbled out
into th e cabin, th e others w ere al
ready a t ta b le ,. M ary sitting w ith
her back to him ; but John G ale
greeted G eorge a s he appeared, and
M ary turned to look up a t him . The
sup from th e skylight fell full upon
h e r countenance as she turned, and
G eorge stopped like' a struck m an,
shaken and trem bling. She thought
he w ould fall, and she rose quickly
to help him , slim and y et w arm ly
round in h e r tight bodice above loose
full skirts of sober stuff. The button
a t h e r thro at w as unfastened; and
G eorge as his eyes fell before h ers
saw h e r sm ooth w hite throat. She
touched his arm , steadying h im ; and
John G ale spoke h e r nam e and his,
and she said:
“H ere, I’ll help you. S t h e re ."
G eorge said defensively: “ I’m all
right.” H e freed him self and sa t
dow n; but his a rm w here she h ad
touched it burned long after h er
fingers w ere rem oved. - H e s a t be
side h e r a t the table w ith C aptain
K een a t the head, but he could not
look a t her. H e ate briefly, a little,
w ith trem bling hands, silent, so th a t
his silence oppressed them a ll Aft-
erw ard he took refuge in his cabin
again; and w hen next day, his ankle
quickly healing, he w as able to hob-
ble on deck, he w alled him self be<
hind an intense dignity.
B ut if he w as afraid of M ary, he
w as attracted to Joseph N eargood.
The M arquesan w as youthfully im
pressed by his own consecration to
the M ission w ork in w hich he would
presently assum e a place. M cAus-
land, his own life com m itted to lead
the Island people to C hristianity,
saw in'N eargood a fine exam ple of
w hat could be done in th a t direction.
T he Sunset w as five days out of
Honolulu; and the day w as lovely
and serene, w ith a light steady
breeze and a long easy sw ell so th a t
th e b re a st of ocean rose and fell as
sw eetly a s the bosom of a sleeping
w om an. Two sailors on a stage
slung over th e side forw ard w ere
scraping and painting, and M ary
D oncaster and M rs. G ale stood by
the. ra il above th e catheads, idly
w atching the m en and w atching th e
porpoises under the bow. Now and
then a s they talked together .the
sound of M ary’s laughter ran g out
pleasantly. C aptain K een, n e ar the
tw o m issionaries aft, cocked his
head th a t w ay and chuckled.
“W e’ll be sorry to say good-bye
to M iss D oncaster,” h e rem arked.
“ The girl has an honest, friendly,
sound in h e r laughing.”
M ary and the others w ere com ing
a ft tow ard them ; and G eorge, al
w ays a p t to avoid M ary, w ent for
w ard along th e other side of the
deck. She looked a fte r him , h e r
eyes sobered by h u rt; and a m o
m en t later, w hen A irs. G ale and
Joseph N eargood h ad gone below,
she sm iled and said to John G ale:
“ I saw you talking w ith poor M r,
M cA usland.”
H e chuckled. “Now I w onder-w hy
you call him ‘poor.* ”
“ B ut isn’t he? H e m ight have so
m any things, b u t he’s afraid to take
them .”
“ A fraid?"
“W ell, a t least so rt of asham ed,
and shy.”
“A sham ed of w hat?” The old m an
w atched h e r w ith a lively interest.
“ A sham ed of—life, perhaps.” The
girl’s cheeks w ere bright. “Don’t
you know people like that? Old
m aids who insist th a t there’s som e
thing sinful in loving and m arrying?
People who persuade them selves
th a t the things they w ant to do and
don’t d are do a re really w rong and
who think everyone else is w icked

AILING HOUSE
b y R o g e r B . W h itm an -
(<9 Boger B. WUtman-YnrtT ServlceJ
H ouse B uilding.
A c o r r e s p o n d e n t is planning
to build a brick house, and asks
a num ber of questions both about
th e house and about th e filled-in land
on w hich it w ill stand. The ques
tions about th e land can be an
sw ered only after an exam ination,
and the possible m aking of borings.
I should not think of putting up a
house w ithout the assistance and ad
vice of an architect. I strongly ad
vise m y correspondent to engage
a n arch itect for th e job, not only
fo r the design, b u t for all the other
services th a t an architect perform /
for his client.
T esting a Chim ney.
Q uestion: W ater som etim esleaks
into m y house through a fireplace
chim ney, apparently because th e
flue tiles are poorly set w ith cem ent
th a t crum bles easily. C apping the
chim ney is suggested, but I am
afraid to accept for fe a r th a t sp ark s
can g et through the crum bled
cem ent to the house tim bers. If w a
te r can, w hy not fire?
A nsw er: You can settle th a t ques
tion by m aking a sm oke test. S ta rt
a sm all but sm oky fire of ta r p ap er
o r som ething sim ilar, and w hen the
sm oke is pouring out of the chim ney,
cover the top of th e flue w ith a board
or a piece of w et carpet. The sm oke
w ill then seek another outlet, and
w ill find its w ay through defects in
the m asonry. If these show up, and
the house fills w ith sm oke, you
should rebuild the chim ney for
safety.
D am p Spots in P laster.
Q uestion: M y house is four y ears
old. The ceilings in th e bedroom s
and living room s show dam p spots
w henever it rains o r on a dam p day.
C an this be patched? P lease ad
vise if anything can be done to help
these dam p streaks.
A nsw er: Look for the causes of
these dam p spots. If they a re locat
ed n e a r the chim ney it is possible
the roof flashings around the chim
ney a re leaking. D am p spots in the
ceiling n e ar windows m ay indicate
the need of caulking betw een the
w indow fram es and outside w alls.
L eaks in a roof m ight be a possible
cause. A fter correcting th e trouble,
the p laster can then be repainted.
L aying Linoleum .
Q uestion: M y future husband is
planning to lay linoleum in the kitch
en and bathroom of our new hom e,
over an under lay er of paper. W hat
kind of cem ent should be used?
A nsw er: The laying of linoleum
is a job th a t requires considerable
experience and skill; fo r otherw ise
th ere a re likely to be openings be
tw een the sheets and along the m ar
gins th a t- w ill m ake trouble. I
strongly recom m end th a t you have
th e job done professionally, !lino
leum! m akers provide the special ce
m ent th a t is needed; but one variety
com es w ith the cem ent already ap
plied to the linoleum , and needing
only to be m oistened.
F rosted G lass.
Q uestion: I have an oil lam p of
clear glass, to w hich I w ish to give
a frosted appearance. ’Is there any
paint w hich w ill produce this effect?
Is there any color w hich can be used
on glass, and if so, how is it applied?
A nsw er: If the lam p is to be used
for lighting, no coating th a t can be
applied to glass would be h e at re
sistant. H ow ever, a dealer in glass
could fro st it w ith an acid. If
the lam p is to be used for decora
tive purposes only, the glass can be
coated w ith a liquid th a t gives the
effect of frosting. T his liquid can be
had a t m ost paint stores. As paints
a re opaque, they w ould not be suit
ab le for coloring glass.
A sbestos Siding.
Q uestion: You have m entioned
w hite clapboard and siding of th e
sam e m aterial as asbestos shingles,
w ith th e advantage of w eather-proof
ness and freedom from painting.
W here can this be obtained?
A nsw er: M aterial of this sort is
handled by dealers in building m a
terials and also by the sam e people
who handle roofings. The m aterial
is actually com pressed P ortland
dem ent reinforced w ith asbestos
fibers. I t w ill not need painting, but
in th e course of tim e it w ill pick up
d irt and soot, w hich can be rem oved
by w ashing.
B row n to U g h t G ray.
Q uestion: M y bungalow is now
finished w ith brow n stained shingles.
I w ant to change to light gray. M y
plan is to p u t on a coat of alum inum
paint and then a coat of gray stain.
C an I use oil stain over alum inum
paint, o r m ust I use ordinary paint?
A nsw er: You cannot use stain
over paint, fo r it is so thin th a t the
color would not show- You a re right
in using alum inum paint to hide the
d a rk colbr. Y o u can fo llo w w ith an y
kind of good quality house paint.
‘W ater for a Fool.
Q uestion: O n o u r land,--surface
w ater runs off into our woods. Could
this w ater b e 'c a u g h t in a pool for
w ater lilies? W hat so rt-o f a con
tracto r w ould do the w ork?
A nsw er: F p ra p o o ly o u w illn e e d
a m ore reg u lar supply of w ater than
rain. In a drouth Uie pool would go
dry, and even & rain y seasons the
w ater fnight becom e stagnant. Also,
it would be a m osquito breeder. In
stead of a pool, have you considered
the !possibilities of a woods garden?

Anything
Through advertising the produ
cers and distributors get their
returns in the increase in busi
ness, for it has brought about
mass production, mass distribu
tion and mass buying.
It doesn’t edit the consumer anything
and it saves time in buying without so
much shopping Around.
It is the best method of promoting
sales and has made it possible for ordi
nary people to enjoy many convenien
ces through mass production that other
wise only the rich could afford.
An ad in The Record goes into hund
reds of homes in Davie and adjoining
counties and will mote than pay the cost
of the investment.
Why not phone No. I* and let us fig
ure vrith you on the cost of an ad. Our
rates are very reasonable.

WHO’S
NEWS
THIS
WEEK
By LEMUEL F. PARTON
(Consolidated Features—WNU Service.)
fSjEW YORK.—Robert A. Lovett,
-*■ ' New York banker and World
war flying ace, gets the news spot
light as a possible aviation pro
duction czar, Yoang Financiers after two
A re Spinning Our ■ months’ serv-
Defense Wheels ice wi‘h thf war depart
ment in which he has shown ex
traordinary capacity for slashing
red tape and getting things done.
His fattier, Judge Robert S. Lovett,
was head of . the war industries
board in the World war.-
When he was summoned by
the war department, Mr. Lovett
Withdrew from the New York
banking firm of Brown Brothers,
Harriman and Co. A few months
earlier, the also comparatively
. young James V. Forrestal, Mr.
Lovett’s friend,' and bracketed
with him among .Bie up-and-
coming young financiers, left the
presidency of Dillpn,; Reed and
Co. to become undersecretary of
the navy.. Years before, their
Wall Street running mate, Aver-
ill Harriman, had moved into
the Washington picture and just
now appears to be pegged as the
liaison between British and
American business in the
hastening crisis.
■ There is a complaint from the
bankers themselves that bank
,Vnoney is on the sidelines in the de
fense crisis, if that’s what it is, but
’kt any rate the bankers are in the
■'line-up, particularly the younger
,set,; serving the army, the navy
and the department of state, as
above and in many other in
stances.
They let by-gones be by-gones.
Mr. Harriman was an early convert
to the New Deal, while Mr. Lovett
is dead-set against it. But that’s all
■ water under the bridge.
Mr. Lovett and Mr. Harriman
are both small-town boys, the
... former from Huntsville, Texas,
and the latter from Beacon, N.
J. Mr. Lovett, rather slight in
stature, good-looking, an easy
going, tactful executive, was
graduated from Yale in 1918 and
pursued postgraduate business
studies at Harvard in 1920 and
1921. Then he took over where
his father left off in running the
Union Pacific, the Oregon Short
Line, the Oregon-Washington
and the St. Joseph and Grand
Island railways, picking np a
few important industrial direc
torates on the side and keeping
everything moving nicely.
The Wall Street battalions of
, youth provide evidence of the many
'tributaries of specialized skill and
■ experience feeding into democratic
defense effort.
A LCHEMY brought on chemistry;
astrology led to astronomy and
now the forked hazel twig to
“ dowse” ground leads to the discov-
_ ery by one of■Orchids Not Gold the world’s
Diggers, bat the most distin-
HorsetailFindslt Sjushed geophysicists
;that the horsetail plant of the mead-
■ows locates gold, and perhaps stores
up a bit for all comers.
Dr. Hans T. F. Lundberg of To
ronto is the scientist. He is a widely
famed mining engineer of Swedish
birth and education. Experimenting
with various means of locating met
als deep in the earth, he worked
through Sweden, Norway, Finland,
Belgium, France, Germany, Spain,
Mexico, Canada and the United
States. His success with “electrical
prospecting” methods was sufficient
to gain for him the gold medal of
the Swedish Engineering academy
in 1925, and to locate 14 profitable
.mines. But he needed a more accu
rate method and kept on the tail of
the horsetail.
The more gold in the ground,
the more in the horsetail, with
even infinite sim a l quantities to
be detected by the spectroscope.
Dr. Lundberg calls it the “geo-
botanical method.” Further-
, more, suburbanites may get in
on the profits, even if they don’t
find a gold mine. A ton of horse
tail, Dr. Lundberg figures, would
yield 4Ya ounces of gold worth
$157.50 at current gold prices.
This back-to-the-land movement'
may come off yet.
Dr. Lundberg was bom in Malmo,'
Sweden, in 1893. He was graduate
ed from the Royal Institute of Tech
nology at Stockholm and later was
a professor there. He came to
Brooklyn in 1923, and formed the
Geophysical Exploration Limited,
which, exploring many countries,
took over where the Willow-Wythe
left off. He is highly certified in his
profession and a member of many
scientific societies.
Incidentally, miners always look
for iron wherever they, find orchids.
One would think they would be the gold-diggers.

Most of the sizzling dialogue of
the original version was omitted, of
course. The characters have been
changed. The result is a rather in-,
nocuous movie'With a few beauti
ful camera shots. ___
Dennis Morgan says that the only
time he was ever broke, hungry and
desperate was the
day he became a
full-fledged movie
star. Morgan, who
is co-starring • with
Merle Oberon in
Warner Bros.’ “Af
fectionately Yours,”
was discovered by
Mary Garden when
he sang “Don Juan”
to her "Carmen.”
She called the atten
tion of movie scouts
to the handsome
and popular young singer.
“ I signed a t a good salary and
thought I w as sitting on top of the
w orld,” he said. “ Instead, I found
m yself, broke and hungry, sitting out
in the desert in a broken-down ja-
loppy.” H e didn’t understand th at
a yearly m ovie contract -provides
for a 12-week layoff w ithout pay. He
bought an ancient auto and headed
W est. B ut his layoff period cam e

The days of the. glorified bathtub
are back. In “Ziegfeld Girl Lana
Turner, as one of
the glorified show
girls, steps into a
marble tub wearing
her jewelry, includ
ing earrings and a
tiara, and apparent
ly nothing else.
Though the much-
publicized episode
of the Anna Held
milk bath will not
be used, the scene
with Lana is based
on an actual occur
rence, when a slightly tipsy Follie:
Girl stepped out of her bathrobe and
into the tub wearing her hat and jew
els. But when Miss Turner slip's out
of the bathrobe there’s a flesh col
ored bathing suit on her, as well as
the jewels.

What kind of noise does a planet
make when it explodes? That’s
what a group of serious-minded men
in Miami, Fla., want to know.
They’re bringing “Superman” to the
screen at the Fleischer Studios,
and in one .of the opening scenes
a planet explodes—only “Superman”
in a rocket ship, escapes. Max
Fleischer thinks it ought to be very,
very loud; Dave Fleischer thinks it
ought to be a combination of heavy
gunfire, earthquake—and an apple
breaking in two, much multiplied.
Unless somebody thinks up some
thing more satisfactory, the apple
wins.

nice voice, and when she auditioned
for the chain some time, ago,he went
along and played the accordion for
her as an accompaniment. That in

months later he phoned the man
who’d handled the audition.
“Do you remember me—the man

A nsw er: One m ethod is to p u t a
slab of stone over th e top of the
chim ney, supported on colum ns, so
th a t the d ra ft w ill not be interfered
w ith. It m ay be th a t the w ater does
hot com e down th e flue, but gets
into the brickw ork through defective

chim ney cap. T hese possibilities
should be looked into.
D arkened Floor.
! .Question: A fter scraping and wip-
,ihg, a floor w as given a coat of w hite
Shellac thinned w ith denatured al
cohol. The floor has darkened and
is so rough th a t it catches dust from
the m op. Shellac w as purchased in
a gallon-can tw o y ears ago, but has
been kept covered in th e cellar. Is
this shellac responsible?
A nsw er: Y es; for shellac deteri
o rates w ith age. It should be used
w ithin a few m onths. The quality
. m ak ers of shellac d ate their cans.
AU of the old sheU ac should be taken

s- cohol, put on in tw o or three thin
. . coats. Instead of sheUac, you could
',use two coats of top quality floor

W ashing P ainted W alls.
Q uestion: W hat is your form ula
fo r w ashing painted interior house

A nsw er: U se tepid w ater in which

proportion of one teaspoonful to the

' w ards. If you sta rt a t the top and

sible to clean off. R inse thoroughly.
T risodium phosphate can be had un
der a tra d e nam e a t a grocery store;
ask for a w hite cleaning pow der th at

Cesspool in an Old W ell.
Q uestion: C an you give m e any
inform ation about using an old w ell
a s a cesspool? A re w ells built w ith
holes in the sides to p erm it th e w ater
' ■' to seep in? Do you think the w ater

: ,through the sides or only from the
.,bottom ? The w ell is 30 feet deep
■ an d three or four feet wide.
• A nsw er: W ith w ater in the bot
tom of the w ell, you w ill naturally
. . g e t no drainage, and the idea would
be im practical. T here is also a pos
sibility of contam inating th e w ater
supply of another w ell w hich m ay
be close by. I w ould advise building
a cesspool and locating it a s fa r
- from the sources of w ater supply as
possible. H ave you considered a

Refinishing a B rick House.
Q uestion: W e w ish to clean our
brick cottage, w hich is 60 years old.
How should we do it? W hat colors
do you suggest for the trim and the
shutters?
A nsw er: You can clean th e brick
w ork w ith any coarse scouring
pow der and plenty of w ater w ith a
stiff scrubbing brush. If this does
not restore the color sufficiently, you
can use a cem ent paint th a t is in-
... tended for m asonry, and th a t you
: can get in brick o r other color, a t
• Sr paint store. W h itep ain ted b rick s
are very popular, and you m ight
consider this. W hite trim against
re d bricks is effective, and a soft
green jad e for instance, should be
.a good co ntrast for the shiitters.
C leanirg a Statuette.
Q uestion: I have a statu ette of
the kind th a t w as m ade in large
num bers 30 o r m ore y ears ago, but
th a t now can be found' only in
antique shops. It would look better
if it w ere cleaned. W hat m ethod
and m aterials should I use?
A nsw er: The statu ette is undoubt
edly of a kind know n as a R ogers
G roup, o r som ething sim ilar. It is
m ade of p laster of p aris and finished
w ith oil paint. You can clean it
w ith a cloth dam p w ith soapy w ater;
follow by w iping w ith c lear -w ater
and then allow to d ry thoroughly.
F o r a final finish you can repaint it
w ith ordinary oil paint.
Oil Finish.
Q uestion: In a rubbed oil finish,
is raw o r boiled linseed oil used?
Is the first coat applied hot or cold?
A nsw er: R aw linseed oil is usu
ally applied cold. One excellent
com bination is 3 p arts oil and I p a rt
turpentine, w hich has g reater pene
tration. A n alternative is equal
p a rts of oil, turpentine and denat
u red alcohol.
Iodine Stains.
A correspondent suggests th e use
of starch to rem ove iodine stains
from cloth in th e following w ay:
“ W et the stain w ith a starch solu
tion such a s is used for starching
collars. W hen the color turns blue,
rinse w ith hot w ater. F o r old stains
try half alcohol and w ater in suf
ficient quantity to dissolve a table
spoonful of starch . Then w et thor
oughly and keep w et until no iodine
rem ains. R epeat if necessary.”
T his m ethod sounds practical, but a
reliable d ry cleaner could probably
do th e job better.
Plaids Bold, Colorful, Striking
In Spring Coats, Capes, Jackets
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
A LL signs point to a riot of hand-
^ som e plaids in the spring style
parade. W hen you choose your plaid
fo r a new coat, cape, jacket, dress
o r sep arate skirt, fashion asks you
to throw all caution to the wind.
N ew plaids a re big and bold, brazen
smd color-m ad, for fashion is in a
m ood for d ram a in plaids this
spring.
H ow ever, there is another side to
th e plaid story w hich has to do w ith
conservative plaids th a t are in pas
tel colors so subtle, so w insom e,
th a t you w ill find yourself yielding
to th eir enchantm ent a t very first
glance. W hich Eill goes to show in
Sie new spring collections th at
there’s a plaid for every tim e, place
and occasion and for every individ
uality. *
N otw ithstanding the color furore
th a t is going on, there is m uch en
thusiasm for black and w hite wool
plaids. They a re very new and very
good-looking and have a unique style
all th eir own.
The plaid costum es pictured typi
fy the new trends. These stunning
m odels w ere selected from am ong
hundreds a t a recent preview d ra
m atically presented in a pageantry
of fashion by the Style C reators of
Chicago, an event th a t illustrated
new achievem ent, new trium phs for
A m erican designers. C onveying'the
m essage th a t plaids are stylish this
season, w e illustrate three distinct
types herew ith—the long coat, the
dram atic cape of w hich you w ill
see an endless procession this
spring, and the ever-favorite softly
tailored long jacket.
The cape vogue is taking the
w orld of fashion by storm . The
w earing of a plaid cape over a
sm artly tailored jack et suit is very
practical to w ear during the fickle
w eather of early spring days. As
an ideal ensem ble for la te r on, you
w ill be topping your crepe and print
frocks w ith a cape in one of the
pretty springtim e colors. N ote the
sm artly caped lady of fashion in the
picture, who w ears over a frock of
gold hued crepe a full length wool
plaid cape, straight lined according
to latest silhouette trends.
One of the new and very sm art
gestures of fashion is to top your
tailored suit w ith a coat of wool
plaid. Provided w ith such a chic
outfit as .the sailor-hatted young
m odern in the picture is w earing,
you w ill be ready to g reet spring in
fitting regalia. Furtherm ore, if you
own . a sleek tailored plaid surcoat,
sm artly straightlined and pocketed
as the one w orn by the m odel il
lustrated^ it w ill prove a perfect
treasu re later on as a w rap to w ear
over various prints of plain frocks.
N ote the good-looking plaid-jacket
costum e centered in the group. H ere
you see a very advance m odel in
the new longer length. The -bias cut
of the plaid adds to its charm . You
w ill love the hazy green gold and
gray tones in this plaid. W orn w ith
a sheer dress th a t features an all-
around pleated skirt, this jacket will
take you places in high style.
M ore plaid! H ere’s the.latest—h at
and enorm ous underarm bag of
vivid plaid to add color glory to
your new ensem ble.

All-In-One Sleeves
. T here sire im portant changes go
ing on in sleeve styling. The new
m ovem ent tow ard an all-in-one
sleeve and bodice o r sleeve and
yoke is very obvious this season.
You see it in the C hinese influence
this -season and in s m a rt dolm an
s le e v e s.' In this picture, the sleeve
extends seam less a t shoulders from
the-yoke section. The R ussian-styled
blouse underneath is -of w hite linen,
and the Eikirt repeats the slight flare
of its own peplum .

Lesson for March 23

JESU S CONDEM NED AND
CRU C IFIED
LESSON TEXT—Luke 23:13-25. 32-34«.
GOLDEN TEXT—What shall I do. then
With Jesus which is called Christ?—Mat
thew 27:22.
Two nights stand out in the story
of the life of C hrist, and therefore in
the history of the w orld. The first
w as H is first night on earth—th at
“ silent night, holy night” of which
we sing a t C hristm as, w hen H e w as
born as the babe of B ethlehem . The
other w as H is last night on earth.
F xcept for the precious hour of fel
low ship in the upper room and H is
com m union w ith the F a th e r in the
agony of G ethsem ane, it w as a night
of darkness, denial, and betrayEil.
There w ere six trials—o r m ock
trials—of Jesus; three religious ones
before A nnas, then C aiaphas, and
then again before the Sanhedrin;
th ree political trials, before P ilate,
then H erod, and P ilate again. At
the close of this last tria l before
P ilate Jesu s stands
I. C leared by the Evidence (w .
13-17).
A t the first tria l before him P ilate
h ad declared on the basis of his ex
am ination th at Jesu s w as “ N ot
guilty” Cv- 4). H erod, to w hom He
had been sent, had only played w ith
H im (w . 8-11). W hat a travesty!
Now P ilate again presents H im to
the people as having “no fault.” It
is a striking truth Uiat no m an of
any age has ever been able honestly
to point to any fault in the life or
ch aracter of Jesu s C hrist. Think
th a t over—unbeliever!
Now cam e P ilate’s first step in
the w rong direction. An accused
m an w ithout guilt should be de
clared innocent and released. B ut
P ilate feared the Jew s who had al
read y m ade trouble for' him w ith
C aesar. So he com prom ised and
said he w ould chastise Jesu s before
releasing H im . John M orely w as
rig h t w hen he said, “ U nder som e
circum stances com prom ise is the
m ost im m oral w ord in the Engjish
language.” It gained P ilate nothing;
in fact, it led to his next step down
w ard.
H . Condem ned Through Coward
ice (w . 18-25).
To avoid a disturbance Etnd to keep
the leaders from com plaining to
C aesar. P ilate gave Jesu s into th eir
hands w ith the “ sentence th a t it
should be a s they required” (v. 24)
w hen'they cried “ C rucify H im !"
P ilate w as in a .difficult place, but
th a t does not excuse him . It is in
th e hard and trying place th a t a
m an should' stand for the right,
com e w hat m ay. Too m any of those
who profess to follow C hrist a re
afraid to stand up for H im in the
hour w hen m en deny H im . Som e
unbelievers a re fearful about declar
ing th eir allegiance to H im , because
they fear the opposition of m en.
W here is our courage, our m anli
ness? H ave we lost the m oral stam
in a of our pioneer forefathers, the
religious conviction of our C hristian
fath ers and m others? P ilate w as a
cow ard, and w e a re asham ed of
him . L et us not be cow ardly and
m ake C hrist asham ed of us (read
M atL 10:32, 33).
H I. Crucified w ith M alefactors
(w . 32-34a).
The details of and circum stances
surrounding the crucifixion a re of
deep in terest to every C hristian.
W e stan d w ith L uther and w eep as
w e see C hrist’s unspeakable agony,
not only of body b u t of spirit, and
w e cry a s did L uther, “ F o r m e,
for m e!” How can any believer con
tem plate the cross and w ithhold self,
substance, o r service from C hrist?
E qually earn est and heart-search
ing is the m essage of th e cross to
th e unbeliever. H e know s he is a
sinner (R om . 3:23), he know s th a t
“ the w ages Of sin is death” (Rom .
6:23), and he know s th a t “neither
is th ere salvation in any other, for
th ere is none other nam e under
heaven given am ong m en w hereby
w e m u st be saved” (A cts 4:12).
H ere a t the cross he m eets th a t one
“ who his own self bare, our sins in
his own body on the tree, th a t w e,
being dead to sins, should live unto
righteousness: by whose stripes ye
w ere healed” (I PeL 2:24).
T here w ere tw o m alefactors who',
w ere crucified w ith H im (v. 32), and
one railed a t H im . The other said,
“ Lord, rem em ber m e w hen thou
com est into thy kingdom ” ; and Je
sus said to him , “ Today thou shalt
be w ith m e in paradise” (Luke 23:39-
43). U nbeliever, w ill you not just
now take the eternal life w hich Je
sus died to m ake possible for you?
Loving H is enem ies to the last,
our L ord prayed for the forgiveness
of those who thus despitefully used
Him. W hat m atchless grace! One
w onders how m any of them by re
pentance’ for. th eir deeds m ade it

Ihe Masonic Lodge of Mocksville, No. 134, began the erection of their new building,
replacing an out-of-date brick structure, which stood on the same site, in 1909. The old
building contained the Masonic hall and the Snow studio on the second floor. The first
floor was occupied by the postoffice, the law office of A. T. Grant, Jr., and The Davie
Record office. The Record office was moved to the second floor of the new J. T. An-
gell bu riding, and if we are not mistaken, the postoffice moved into the T. M Young
wooden building. The new Masonic builning cost about $11,000, and is now occupied
b y TK= Bank of Davie, Tha Davie Record, and Geo. Rowland on the first floor; the Ma
sonic lodge, the law offices of A. T Grant, and offices of J. K. Sheek and F. R. Leag-
ans, on the second floor. The wooden building, seen rn the left, was the Mocksville
Hotel, o w n e d and operated by Mrs. M. E. Swicegood This building was destroyed - b y
fir* about 12 years ago.

Not For Pessimism.
(Winston Salem Journal)
William Allen -White introduces
ns to an editor out in Kansas that
we are glad to meet. His name is
W G. Anderson, and he edits the
Winfield Courier.
Mr. Anderson is tired of looking
at long faces and listening to the
lamentation of tbose poor, misguid
ed souls who can see nothing In
the future except darkness and de
spair.
"W e go whining about,” he Mys,
*‘because we cannot tell what is
coming down the line after the war.
Instead of whining, w e should
screw up our courage and get teady
for what comes and take it on the
chin.
“Talk about an American, it is
this supine cringing before an un
known future—this loud, persist
ent hollering before anybody is hurt
“Certainly the future looks back
and doubtful—but so it did, no
doubt, in 1777, and 1863, and even
in 1932—but we staggered through
somehow each time, with our free,
dom intact, stronger than ever.
“ The British, who ate actually
undergoing the things our Jere
miahs are worrying about, do not
moan and wail. But, we, still free,
still at peace, still functioning; are
asked to go and sit cowering in
some dark corner to wait for the
end of everything. . . .
“ It is no witless Pollyanna opti
mism we peddle here; it is dear-
sighted courage which admits all
the pitfalls and terrors that may lie
ahead and then says: aSo what!
Even these we can conquer even
tbesie will pass away!”
For the first time in many years.
Naval Aviation Pilot training will be

Who Waslt?
A young lady went into a dry
goods store the other day and tim<
idly asked the head clerk if he had
any of tbose elastic bands, capable
of being elcngated and adjusted at
pleasure, and used Iqr the feminine
portion of mankind for putting a.
round the lower extremeties of
their locomotive members to keep
in proper position and the rexuired
altitude habiliments of their tibias.
The clerk is now on a cattle ranch.

Gen. Lee’s Letter To
Son Custis.
In these days when so many peo
ple seem to be losing sight-of some
of the finer things of life; their du
ties and responsibilities, the need
for honesty and courage, it will be
well to re read the letter which
General Robert E. Lee wrote to Us
son, Curtis. Theadvicethe great
military leader and educator gave
his son is as timely, perhaps more
so. as it was then.
Here is what he wrote:
KBGARD TO, DtJTTf
“You must study to be. frank
with the world; frankness is the
child of honesty and courage. Sav
just what you mean to do on every
occasion, and take it for granted
you mean to do right. If a friend
asks vou a favor, you should grant
it, if it is reasonable; if not, tell
him plainly why you cannot; you
will wrong him and wrong yourself
by equivocation of any kind. Nevier
do a wrong thing to make a friend
or keep one, the man who requires
you to do so, is dearly purchased at
a sacrifice. Deal kindly, but firm
ly, with all your classmates; you
will find it the policy which wears
best. Above all, do not appear to
others what you are not. If you
have any fault ”;o find with anyone,
tell him, not others, of what you
complain; there is no more danger
ous experiment than that of under
taking to be one thing before a
man’s face and another behind his
back. We should live, act, and say
nothing to the injury of any one.
It is not only best as a matter of
principle, but it is the path to peace
and honor.
“In regard to duty, let me, in
conclusion of this hasty letter In*
form you that, nearly a hundred
years ago, there was a day of re
markable gloom and darkness—still
known as ‘the dark day — a day
when the light of the sun was slow.
Iy extinguished, as if by eclipse.
The Legislature of Connecticut was
in session, and as the members saw
the unexpected and unaccountable
darkness coming on, they shared in
the general awe and terror. It was
supposed by many that the last day
—the day of judgement —had come.
Some one, in the consternation of
the hour moved an adjournment.
Then there arose an old Puritan
legislator, Davenport, of Samford,
and said that if the last day had
come, be desired to be found at his
place doing bis duty, and therefore
moved that candles be brought in,
so that the House could proceed
with its duty. There was quiet
ness of heavenly wisdom and iu*
flexible willingness to obey present
duty. Duty, then, is the sublimest
word iu our language. Do your
duty in all things like the old Puri,
tan. You cannot do more, you
should never wish to do less. Never
let me and your mother wear one
gray hair for any lack of duty on
your part.”
American Army Passes
One Million Mark.
Theannouncement was made in
Washingtan that the Americao army
had passed the one million mark in
its rapid expansion, attaining on
Mnnday the highest total since de
mobilization of the 3.673.888-man
World War army more than 20 yean
ago.
The War Department reported
68.600 regular, national guard and
935.000 enlisted men. .
The Navy’s count showed 229.988
officers and men on March I, when
the marine corps reported 48 517.
The Army is scheduled to reach!,.
418.000 by mid* June, with the induc
tion of. additional selective service
trainees, mobilisation of remaining
guardsmen and acquisition of more
volunteers by the regolara.

Dear Sir:—Enclosed find a one-

tion for your verv valuable paper.
We take an Indianapolis doily
paper which Noah Monroe; B^ock
values very highly but the day the
"Davie Record** comes it is always
the first one he reads.
After reading the paper today he
said. ‘‘Send them a dollar and ask
for a Blum's Almanac.” Father
Brock will he 105 next August and
is enjoying splendid health. At
present he is very happv because his
name has been placed on the Civil
War pension roll by the North Car

tiring efforts of his great nephew,
Joe Hampton Rich.
We wish to thank the Legislative
bodv, all the kinfolks, the S. A. R.

the bill passed.
W ith good wishes to all the North

A Million Acres Aband
oned.
In his report on soil erosion con
ditions in North Carolina W. D.
Lee, extension conservationist,
shows that slightly more than two-
thirds of the land is affected by
gullying and that 3 5 per cent has
been abandoned because of erosion.
That is a tremendous toll to be
charged to neglect, a toll that could
have been avoided and one that will
be surprising after the reclamation
program of the last few years.
Lee estimates, after study of ac
curate date asssmbled in the conser
vation districts, that only 10,085,-
000 aeries or 32.2 per cent of the
land area in North Carolina, is free
from appreciable damage from eros
ion. The total land area affected
by that most severe form of soil
erosion, gullying, 5.647,540 acres,
with almost a third of that acreage
being entirely abandoned for pro

The extension specialist has com
piled a “rating** of the counties in
matter of erosion damages, and says
of Iredell in this connection: “ Most
of the Soils in Iredell county have
lost practically all of their original
surface material—that is, they once
were sandy loams or loams, now
they ate day loams or clays. Yet
for the crops grown, they are still
good soils because they can be im
proved and maintained in a high
state of productivity. The same is
not true of Caswell county, where
once the surface soils are all gone,
the material left is not suitable for
the principal crop—tobacco/’
Iredell farmers, under insistent
and intelligent leadership, have
been engaged in a soil conservation
program that gives promise of cor
recting this fault. But they are
paying the price of a late start.
Terracing is the order in Iredell,
and our farmers are sensing its
benefits. Crop rotation and soil im.
provetnent has been encouraged by
the cattle-raising program that is in
its infancy, and soon it is to be
hoped that this county will be lift
ed out of the slongh of despond
where it has found itself after an
era of neglected short-sighted farm
planning.
North Carolina cannot excuse the
more than a million acres entirely
taken out of production by sheer
neglect of the landowner. The
State cannot lay claim to a balanced
economy with those abandoned
acres, staring it in the face. For.
tunately agricultural leaders are
actively engaged in correcting the
fault, and they should have the
support they and theit cause de-
serves.^-Statesville Daily.

Yielding to none ifi our venera

that North Carolina does aot need

up any earlier, thus losing part of
the most comfortable sleeping time
To paraphrase the gal, when you

Jailing Children Still
Continuing.
Wade N. Cashion, director of in.
stitutions for the State welfare de.
partment, this week called atten
tion to the. fact that several conn,
ties in North Carolina are continu
ing the practice of jailing children
unrer 16 years of age despite the
attorney general's ruling that such
incarcerations are unlawful
Citing figures for the last six
months of 1940 and for January of
this year, Cashions placed tbe num
ber of child incarcerations as far
too high when 31 jails in January
held 80 children under 16years, 12
of tbe number being less than 12
years.
Back in September of last year,
32 jails reported a population of ex
actiy 100 children and during tbe
last half of 1940 the figures showed
a total of 471 children in county
lock-ups.
“ People in the counties concern
ed should make all possible effert to
bring about a change in such a situ,
ation because it is tbe offspring of '
some of their own neighbors who
are meeting the detrimental con
tacts of association with hardened
law-breakers.” Casbion said.
“The time these boys and girts
of both races spend inside jail walla
varies from a single day to a whole
month and more in some cases.
The charges against them are listed
in different categories running from
'investigation’ to ‘forgery’.*’
Last month Macon and Edge*
combe counties each held a 13 year*
old Negro boy for “ forgery.”
Buncombe and Richmond coun.
ties in January listed 11-year-old
white boys as jailed for “investi
gation.’’
Many times, Cashion said, a
young child is sent to jail along
with the mother because of no other
facility of child-care. In January,
19 white boys, five white girls, 53
Negro boys and five negro girls
made up the 80 total population of
county jails who were 16 years and
under.

To Parentsof Draftees. Stndy Course at Baptist
Church.There are a number of Davie
county young men already in train,
tag camps throughout the country
and there will be many more with,
in the next year. AU of these
yonng men wtll want to hear from
their old home county while in
distant camps. There is no better
way to help the boys keep posted
on what is going on in their home
county than to have The Record
sent to them every week. As a
special favor to both the parents
and their sons, we will send The
Record one year to any draftee in
any camp in the United States for
only 50 cents If you. have a son
who is in a training camp, send ns

be just like a letter from home.
The Baptist Training Union of the
Moeksville Baptist Church has com'
pleted a course of studv which be
gan Monday evening and continued
through Wednesday evening. The
course was'in charge of Rev. and
Mrs. J. H. Fulghum and Harry S.
Stroud, General Director. The Se-
nior B. Y. P. U. Manual was taught
by Mrs. W. H. Dodd, the Interme
diate Manual by Miss Geneva GrubbB
and the Junior Manual by Mrs. Har

VVh.-i th..'-ouiiii'' n eed s «*1»y is
n o t a good five ce n t cigar, but more
m en like th e la te Theodore Roose
velt and Grover Cleveland. When
th e se men spoke foreign notions
woke up and took notice. When
th e y said a thing they meant it. It
is a far cry from Grover Cleveland
and Teddy Roosevelt to Harry
Hopkins and Henty Wallace.
A leading business' woman re
marked on a recent windy day that
we had one of the dirtiest towns in
the state, and this writer admitted
the fact. AU of the waste paper,
weeds and trash of all kinds that
are piled or thrown in the rear of
the business bouses, is blown up on
the main streets, and sometimes it
is hardly possible for ladies and
cbildren to get along on the side,
walks. A word to the mayor and
board of aldermen should be suffi-
cent. We need a clean-up day.
N pw Store Building.
Geo. R. Hendricks and A. M.
Kimbrough, Jr., let the contract
last week for the erection of a new
brick one story building on the lot
between Mocksville Cash store and
Hall-Kimbrough Drug Store. The
building will have a frontage of 23
feet, and a depth of 100 feet. R.
W. Daniel has the contract, and
the building is expected to be com
pleted about May 1st. Work was
started Thursdav. It is not known
yet who will occupy the new store.
Messrs. Hendricks and Kimbrough
purchased the lot several weeks ago
from Mrs. S. A. Harding. We
are reliably informed that Wallace
store, now located in the Anderson
building on the corner, will occupy
the building when completed.

The Ford Motor Company's
business has always been to
serve die needs of the American
people. In providing them with
low-cost transportation for the
past 38 years, we have devel
oped one of the country’s larg
est and most useful industrial
units. During a national emer
gency, we feel that these facili
ties should be devoted without
reserve to our country’s needs.
Toward that end we started
rolling months ago, with these
results:
I A $21,000,000 Pord airplane en
gine factory, started only 6 months
ago, is nearly completed. Production
will start with an initial order for
4,236 eighteen cylinder, air-cooled,
double-row, radial engines.
2 We ate building a new $800,000
Ford magnesium alloy foundry,
one of the few in the country. Ir is
already producing lightweqtiit air-
' plane engine castings.
Army reconnaissance cars — mili
tary vehicles of an entirely new'
type— are rolling off special Ford
assembly lines at the rate of more
than 600 a month. We have produced
Army staff cars and bomber service
trucks.
4 The government has' given the
"go-ahead" and work is now under way for the fast construction
of an $11,000,000 Ford plant
to produce bomber airframe
assemblies by mass produc
tion methods.
3
5 Several months ago work wee
Startedl On oar own initiative, on
an entirely new 1500 horsepower air
plane engine especially designed for
-.Mi production. This engine is now
in die test stage and plans are being
developed for producing it in large
quantities when and if needed.
6 A Ford aircraft apprentice school
has been established, to train 2000
stodeats at a time.
That Is a report of progress
to date.
The experience and facilities
of tiiis company can be used
to do much of the job which
America now needs to get done
in a hurry.
Our way of working, which
avoids all possible red tape, en
ables us to get results and get
them fast. This benefits users
of our products and workers
who produce them.
We are ready to make any
thing we know how to make,
to make it 'to the limlr of our
capacity if need be, to make it
as fast as we can go, and to start
the next job whenever our
country asks us to. And to thft
end, we know we have the fall
confidence and loyal
support of the workmen
throughout our plants.

PARAMOUNT’S “The Lady
Eve” is certainly one of the
best pictures that has come out
of HoUyworid in years and-years;
it’s the' third"excellent picture
in a row for Preston Sturges,
who wrote and directed it. Henry
Fonda acquires new laurels as
a comedian, Barbara Stanwyck
is completely delightful, the
rest of the cast (which includes
Charles Cobum, Eric Blore and William Demarest) couldn’t be im
proved on.

Pull the Trigger on
Lazy Bowels, with
Ease for Stomach, too
When constipation brings on add indigestion, stomach upset* bloating, diazy
spells, gas, coated tongue, sour taste and bad breath, your stomach is probably “crying the blues” because your bowels
don't move. It calls for Laxative-Senna
to pull the trigger on those lazy bowels,
combined with Syrup Pepsin for perfect ease to yourstomach in taking. For years, many Doctors have given pepsin prepa
rations in their prescriptions to make
medicinemorc agreeable to a touchy stom
ach. So be sure your laxative contains
Syrup Pepsin. Insist on Dr. Caldwell’s
Laxative Senna combined with Syru p Pep
sic. See how wonderfully the Laxative Ronna wakes up lazy nerves and muscles
in your intestines to bring welcome relief
from constipation. And the good old
Syrup Pepsin makes this laxative so com
fortable and easy on your stomach. Even finicky children love the taste of this pleasant family laxative. Buy Dr. Cald
well’s Laxative Senna at your druggist
today. Trjr one laxative combined with
Syrup Pepsin for ease to your stomach, too.

THE DAVlE RECORD, UOCKSVILLE, N. C., MARCfl 26.1941.
With the greatest of ease, Alfred Orhnt former national
ski champion, startles the queen’s “court” at the great Winter Sports State Park at Grayling, Midiigant by leap* ing over a Chevrolet Sedan. Miss Yvonne Bradley (third from the right) has been elected Snow Queen and, with her court, welcomes the colorful crowds of winter sports
fans who arrive by the thousand in automobiles and snow
trains. Six steel toboggan slides and acres of skating rinks are now in operation, and three ski towers and 75 miles of marked ski trails are planned for this huge winter sports development under the supervision of the National Park Service and the Midiigan State Park Department. 4
