In the world of todav there are many problems that confront us, and in dealing witb them it is very easy to overlook and neglect the moral and spiritual side of life. This is the most important, but the average person falls to see it, or lets it slip by without giving it the attention that he should. We be­ lieve eliat our difficult and serious problems of finances/business, edu cation, crime, war, leadership, ru- lership, etc., could all be solved by moral and spiritual standards. In other words, to live as high. mor­ ally and spiritually as God would have us live would save our. trou­ blesome problems otherwise. They arise from the lack of a high moral and spiritual standard in the lives of men and nations. No individual or nation would want to oppress and make war up­ on another if all men would live in the moral and spiritual atmosphere that God has provided for us. But as men and nations live on a level far below God's standard it breeds dishonesty, crime, oppression, ha­ tred, a desire for revenge, murder, suicide, war, famine and pestilence. It brings about a very dangerous and unhealthy condition physically, spiritually, mentally, financially and morally. And this may result in almost anything that is destructive. Nothing equals God's plan for our lives as individuals and nations. He holds before us life’s best in morality and spirituality, and it we accept it we prosper, but if we reject it we eventually go down to failore and defeat and eternal dam­ nation. We need to continually keep before the individual and the public the great fact that there is a high moral and spiritual side of life, and if we seek to attain it we shall be forever on the side of vic­ tory, provided we stay where God wants us, but if we reject God's high stsndard of morals and spiri­ tuality we shall fail and lose every thing else eventually. . Deep and high morality ajjd spi­ rituality brings us to life’s best, but a low type of morals, and a shallow type of spirituality, or no spintn ality at all. brings us to final wteck and ruin. It is true of the, indi­ vidual; it is true of the nation. We need to lay tremendous emphasis upon deep and high morality ‘and spirituality. Such an attainment will take us successfully through this world and present us faultless before the throne of God. New Styles For Ladies We see by the news that the best dressed women are going to be wearing pants pretty generally in the near future. Bum idea, we call it. No economy, no comfort, no sense in it. In our opinion the one point on which women’s weir has scored highest above men’s is in the extra freedom that skirts give over pants for walkin and getting around easily and comfort, ably. Of course now, some of you sisters may like tbe idea of pants-*- all right go to them and here’s hop­ ing you look half as well as you think you're going to. As for us, with walking oecoming more and more a part ot the picture—as for us we’ll just keep our legs" free, if you please, have no pants dangling round our ankles and we’ll keep our conviction also, thank you, that it isn’t every woman that was made to dress like a man.—States­ ville Daily. ' Thereis this redeeming feature about the scandal in the State re­ venue department. TheJioys conld borrow the people’s money without having to pay nsnrions interest rates, says an exchange. Farm Labor Shortage A serious farm labor shortage is developing in North Carolina and in the entire South. _;Tbe6elective service program accounts for some of the shortage, but accurate analy­ sis would reveal that booming wtr industries and the high wages that attract farm workers, come in for the highest blame—if blame it is. But this farm labor shortage is no new thing. Even before the war supply of farm labor was be. coming smaller. The U. S. Cen. SusofiQito sholVed that the agri­ cultural labor force above 14 years of age in North Carolina had de­ clined 15 per cent from the 1930 level. Washington announces that every consideration will be given this matter in'relation to the selec­ tive service program; that every justifiable exemption will be ex­ tended those who come from the farms, and whose military service would cripple the agricultural pro gram. Tbe government will be getting into deep watet there— very deep water. There will be a noticeable eagerness of some to go back to the farms. We told of one such case, if this shelter is provided, and as certain as the sunrise t there will be plenty of gripping about it. And no matter how cautious the exemption boards may be, they will slip up occasionally, and grave in­ justices will result. If the government really wants to bring some relief to this labor shortage situation on the farms, H should re-examine its relief set-up and iron out some of the faults here in Iredell county if the Reliefers were thrown on their own} some of them at least would be available for fahn work. And certainly no one will argne that the able bodied a- mong them should be sheltered and dothed at public expense when there is work to do—work that is essential to. our war program. The farmer cannot feed our own people and the people of our Allies if his farm is drained of the man­ power necessary to make it pro­ duce the things that are needed. That’s as plain as the bump on your nose.. And the government should forget about social gains and whatnot, if the farm program is as important as admitted.—Statesville Daily. ' n Davie Lady W ants A Hosband In looking over The Union Re< publican a few days ago we fonnd the following letter, which speaks for itself. Always willing to do onr part in a good cause, we ars print* ing the letier which reads: - Dear Cousins:—I have been read­ ing the cousins letters and I think it is so good ot the editor to ^ive ns a page in WhichxJto express >onr thoughts.

Let's Pay Debts Now Remember back in 1921 and 1930 bow farmers lost their entire hold­ ings because they were unable to pay their debts or make_ satisfac­ tory arrangements for refinancing? Some of os remember quite well while others are prone to believe that the fanner of '21 and '3 0 was not a good business manager. If you baye funds to buy new proper­ ty, be sure that the homestead is paid for. Don't pyramid your hold­ ings. If your land is paid for, you won’t bave-to worry about losing your earnings os a life time in the event that we have a depression af­ ter this war is over. Let’s take a little advice from tbe words uttered by Henry Gtady years ago: “When every farmei in the Sooth shall eat bread from bis own field and meat from bis own pastures and, disturbed by no creditors and enslaved by no debt, shall sit down among his teeming ' gardetas and orchard and vineyards aqd his dai­ ries and barnyards, pitching bis crops In his wisdom and growing them in independence, making cot­ ton his dean surplus, and selling it in his own time in bis own chos­ en market and. not at a master’s bidding; getting his pay in cash and not in ,.a receipted mortgage that discharges the debt but does not restore bis freedom—then shall be; tbe breaking the fullness of our day.” So while times are good, let’s finish the payments on the home place, get onr affairs in shape, plant some savings in defense brads and then.if a depression comes a. long, we'll bave a place to live and grow our food and have nothing to worry about except taxes.—South era Farmer. We’re AU in The Army “It’s the millions of trivial things —well done—that’s going to*win this war for us. -Like the farmer who grows more food, and the fac­ tory hand who produces more e- quipment, and the housewife who makes everything go a little farth­ er, and even the children who ga ther up waste paper and scrap irop And all of oa who buy bonds and contribute our time and money and prayers aqd inspiration. . Wefre all to the army, the army that stands back of pur soldiers and onr sailors and OUrrAyers. And the better we do 6ur job, tbe sooner they will fin ish thetas." Wonder W hata French* man Thinks Abont? . Two years ago a Frencihman was as free as you are. Today what does he think as be humbly steps into the gutter to let bis conquer­ ors swagger past. As he works $3 hours a week for 30 hours’ pay. As be sees all trade unions out. Iawed and all’ the “rights” for which he sacrificed bis country trampled by bis foreign masters As he sees bis wife go hungry and his children face a lifetime of serfdom. What does that Frenchman—sol dler, workman, politidan or busi ness man, think today?, Probably it’s something like this. “I wish I had been less greedy for myself and more anxious for my country; I wish I had realized you can’t beat off a determined invader by a quarreling,^ disunited people at home; I wish I bad been wiUtng to on some of my rights to other Frenchmen instead of giving up all of them to a foreigner; I wish I had realized other Frenchmen bad rights, too; I wish I bad known that patriotism is work, not talk, giving, not getting.” And if that Frenchman could read our newspapers today, show, ing pressure groups each demand, ing things he done for them in­ stead of for our country, wouldn’t he say to American business men, politicians, soldiers and workmen, "If you knew tbe horrible penalty your action is bound to bring, you would bury you* differences' now befo e they bury you; you’d work for your country as you never wor­ ked before, and wait for your pri. vate ambitions until your country is safe. Look at me.,. .I worked too little and too late.’’- -Ex. Privates And Officers Josepbns Danirls who promoted the democratic spirit ia the Navy during the World Wat, has made a strong editorial protest In The News and Observer against snob­ bery, as it is alleged to prevail as vet in the Amerioan Army. His editorial was in comment on a statement by a member of Con­ gress, to tbe effect tbat Army pri­ vates were not allowed to "date” Army nurses, who hold officer rank. “If nurses and other commiss­ ioned officers are-prevented by re- gulation^from engaging in sodal activities with privates, that regu­ lation should not exist a day lon­ ger,” the editorial said. "If there is such a regulation it is an advertisement that we give lip service to our boasted democ­ racy and hug classicism and snob­ bery to our hearts in the one ser­ vice which in this hour calls for unity and equality* ‘‘If there is such an archaic im­ perialistic regulation, it disgraces all for which Americanism and de mocracy stand. If a private can. not be regarded as a social equal, how can he be expected to_fight for democracy?" Mr. Daniete’ sentiments will be shared by many other Americana. In tbe coutse of duty. dlstipline must be enforced in tbe military, and officers of all. grades must-ne- cessarily maintain a standard of dignity which commands respect. But there is no reason wby officers and privates' cannot mingle in a friendly, democratic manfcer when off duty— City Sentinel. L u d p H ttti at this office. The biggest mistake tbat anyone can make is to get the Mea tbat this country is goinjg to win/this war easily. : It isn’t.

Visit to Davie County The writer bad the pleasure of taking a little outing by motor the other afternoon. While in Davie county Brown’s nursery, located al­ most two miles beyond Mocksville, was visited. Mr. Brown has a great variety of all kinds of shrubbery. He stated that-be employs eight or ten people regularly to assist him in the work of keeping his nursery iii an attractive condition. He has a great many visitors as shown by tbe number of sales be makes every week since he opened bis place a few years ago. He has most of the town conveni- ences, such as electric lights and a deep artesian well which has never evidenced the least danger of going dry. There is a steady flow of water from it. - The owner of the place has a number of customers in Winston. Salem. He has another place of sevetal hundred acres where he has tenants who produce several differ­ ent crops. "I keep two horses at tbe farm and two for use at the nursery,” he said. During a stop in Mocksville, we had an enjoyable cbat with Dr. and Mrs. I. P. Anderson, who are among the leading dtizens of the capital of Davie. Their home is one of the prettiest to be found in any North Carolina city. They re­ turned only a few weeks ago from a two-month stay In Florida. Dr. Anderson is a dentist and Mrs. Anderson remarked that tbe only wav for him to get any rest from bis profession is for him to leave town. In response to queries about tbe home, Mrs. Audenon said the tim­ ber used in tbe interior came from Fogle Brothers in Winston-Salem and it was regarded the very best that could be secured at the time of construction, this being a num­ ber of years ago. If time bas made any change in its appearance it was by no means visible to the visitor’s ' eyes. The people of Mocksville are still lamenting the passing of one of its best-knowc and highly-esteemed residents, Jacob Hanes. —R. C.

CHAPTER XV It was less than half an hour later when Thomas returned saying, "Come on deck. It’s here!" They followed him to the rail. The misty rain and gray sky and . sea made it'difficult to focus their vi­ sion but Joan suddenly saw the peri* scope of a submarine rising slowly Irom the water. “There it is! I see it!” “Yes. That is it,” Paul said qui­etly.Karl appeared from the captain’s quarters. They could see him de­scending the narrow flight of stairs. He was dressed in uniform and called sharp commands to three sai­lors who stood at the rail preparing to lower a small boat. “Is Karl going to the submarine?’’ Joan asked. “Probably they will come to the •hip,” Paid said speculatively. “Yes, that’s right,” Thomas put In, nodding his head. “I’ve seen them do it before.- Karl gives them the papers and they’re gone again.” “You don’t think Karl has found out that you changed those plans?” Joan said nervously. “He doesn’t seem to.”v Men appeared from' the hold of the ship. AU stood at attention as the hatch of the submarine opened and two officers appeared. As Thom­ as had predicted, the boat carried them to the ship and they all went to the pilot house. “What will they do now?” Joan asked. “Get the papers and go back.” “And all those plans will be used?” “Yes. Not only plans for bomb­ ing planes, but .formulas for explo­sives and poison gas. This spy ring has connections in every part of our country. It’s a powerful organiza­tion and the leader’s the one we want. Getting Karl alone wouldn’t do any. good. If he were in jail the rest of his liie, it wouldn’t stop the rest of them.”“How terrible!” Joan shuddered; “That isn’t the worst of it,” Paul went on. “They intimidate people who have relatives in Germany, threatening to harm them unless money and aid is given. Many peo­ple are drawn into it this way.” “Yes!” Thomas cried. “That’s what happened to me. Karl told me my wife would be put into a concentration camp if-1 didn’t give Um five thousand dollars. Sie was ■till in Germany, you see, so I tried to raise the money but I couldn’t. So Karl offered to put it up for me if I would come on this ship. But I’ve never heard from my wife ,ince.” “We may aswell go-inside,” Paul said. “Apparently this conference is going to take some' time.”“I don’t like the look of it,” Thom­ as insisted. “Usually they’re here only a few minutes.” “Do.you really .think anything is wrong?” Joan asked anxiously as she and Paul went into the lounge.“It doesn’t look too good,” Paul admitted. “Be ready for anything. If you want your purse, you’d bet­ter get it now. We may bs off the «hip before another hour passes Automatically Joan went into her cabin and gathered up her things. Ifseemed fantastic that they could iscape from a boat in mid-ocean. “AU set?” Paul said as she stood resolutely before him.“Ready for anything!” Joan said bravely.But almost Sn hour passed and nothing happened. The ship rested tranquilly by the side of the sub­marine. The rain continued. Thom­ as watched from the deck. Paul smoked endless cigarettes as he paced the length of the cabin. “I don't like this delay,” he admitted. “Things aren’t going as I had planned.”• . • Thomas came into the cabin where Joan and Paul waited, with tea and toast. “There must be something wrong,” he whispered. “Karl must have found out about those plans/ Paul frowned but said, “Not necessarily.”“But if he has, what then? How will we' ever escape?” Joan put in.Thomas poured' the tea and his band trembled. “He’ll know I helped you. He’ll kill me.”Joan, remembering Eric' Stromr via Sited with a vague tenor.. Her / She had scarcely ottered the words when Kari Miner’s powerful figure loomed in the doorway. He held a pistol. band instinctively touched the gun in her coat pocket.“Karl won’t kill anyone,” Paul said, calmly lighting a cigarette.Joan had already noticed' that Paul' had the faculty of inspiring trust. Thomas seemed to be relieved his assurance, vague and indefi­nite though it was. Joan, too, felt some inner faith, some conviction that Paul could master any situa­ tion.It was a little after seven when Thomas motioned them to come out­side. Karl and the officers were on the lower deck. They watched as the officers de­scended the rope ladder and were rowed'back to the submarine. In the darkness it was hard to dis­ tinguish them. It was like some eyil mirage, as their vague shapes dis­ appeared down the hatch, then slow­ly the submarine submerged. “It’s the most terrible thing I’ve ever seen,” Joan said, moving clos­er to Paul “It’s symbolic of all the hidden terror in the world today.” “And it’s my job to do all I can to stop it,” said Paul. “You'll never stop. Karl and his kind. There are too many of them,” Thomas said sadly. “It would take years.” “We’ll stop them all right, no mat­ter how long it takes, and every little bit helps. If we can get to the ,bottom of this unit, it will fright­ en the others. Every man in the FBI.is working day and night track­ ing down these people. We’ll catch up with every one of them eventu­ ally.” Joan’s heart was full of pride in his words. - Paul -caught' her glance and smiled. She was clutching her purse and gloves, ready to depart, as he had said, “at a moment's notice.” “We're not going to get out of this as sobn as I thought,” he told her now as they went back into the lounge. “May as well sit down and relax.” '“Not ine,” Thomas insisted. “I’m going to stay on deck. If Karl does come, I don’t want to make things look any worse than they already are.”“Odd that Karl trusts you here with us,” Paul meditated. “He trusts me,” Thomas declared, “because he knows I’m afraid of him.” But though neither Joan nor^aul would admit it, both thought that Karl was too clever to overlook the possibility that Thomas might aid Karl’s prisoners. Had be deliber­ately planned it this way? “Drink your tea, dear,” Paul ad­vised.' “This may be the last food we’ll have for quite a while.” They smiled, sending each other a message of courage. The ship lay quietly. They*had not moved since the arrival of the submarine. Thomas stood patiently outside. The rain on bis slicker gleamed in the darkness. “I think he’s more worried than we are,” Paul commented. Thomas’ shuffling footsteps came suddenly to their ears; also a hard tread ascending the stairs... “It’s Karl!” Joan whispered. - ' She had scarcely jittered the words when Karl Miller’s powerful figure loomed in the doorway. He held a. pistol.Paul and Joan faced him silently. Behind his back Joan saw the terri­ fied eyes of Thomas.“You amaze me, Mr. Q’Malley,” Karl said coolly. “A man in the government service should be more clever than you have been.” “Meaning what?” Paul inquired with assumed indifference.“Do you really think me so stu­pid?” Karl smiled. “Do you think I would hand over important papers without checking them first?” “Sorry to disrupt your little plan. You could see for yourself that they are quite worthless now.”“Quite,” Karl said coolly. “But I.feel that your government would have preferred to lose the plans and have you alive.” •■■■_• _“No!” Joan screamed, sensing his meaning.“Shut up! I will -deal with you later. Perhaps you will learn that death is preferable to some things-” “If you .imagine that I am afraid to die, you are wrong,” Paul said calmly. “To die for a purpose like this could almost be called a pleas­ure.”Joan wondered how he could talk like that at a time like this, but Karl had a faint glimmer of ap­ proval in his cold eyeis.- “I admire your courage, Mr. O’Malley. Too bad that you fight on the wrong side. If you had joined with me, we might have gone far together.” His hand raised the pistol, his finger was pressed against the trigger.Joan saw Thomas motion to her and she knew instantly what she must do. She snatched the gun from her pocket and fired it directly at Karl Miller. With ah expression of complete incredulity, he crumpled to the floor. * *. * The gun fell from Joan’s hand as she stared with unseeing eyes be-, fore her. “I’ve killed him,” she whispered. - Paul’s arm was about her. “Don’t think about it. We’re getting out of here.” Thomas took a timid step forward. “It served'him right,” he declared with satisfaction.” “Where did she get that gun?” Paul demanded. “I gave it to her.” 'Tve killed him,” Joait repeated. . Paul motioned to Thontas and to­gether they helped her from the cabin. Outside—complete darkness, a slight wind and the misty rain. “Do you think you can get those papers from the safe?” -Paul asked Thomas, “i’ll wait here with Joan.” Thomas looked fearfully over his shoulder. “There’s nothing to be afraid Ot now,” Paul said. “Go quickly be­ fore the others, find out what has happened.” ' Paul and joan. waited under the narrow ledge of canvas. Large drops of rain splattered' down on the deck. Joan,clung to Paul’s arm unable to speak.: “It won’t be long now, honey,” he said. “Try to bear up just a little, while longer.” Thomas returned almost instantly with the papers and handed them to Paul. “I didn’t see anyone,” to reported. “This all seems - too easy.”“Never mind that,” Paul saM. “Do you think we can ‘ lower a boat?”“Sure. But we’ll have to go down to the boat deck and one of th*<m will see us. They all know whdt’sl what. They’d shoot us down like Karl would have. We haven’t a chance of getting off this boat.” “There’s no time to' argue,” Paul insisted. mI know what I’m doing Now let’s go.” As they descended the stairs therr was no one In sight. The boat used to take the officers back to the sub­marine .was still in the water. “What luck!” Thomas said. “Not luck,” Paul replied. “IVs there for a purpose. You go down first and I’ll help Joan.”Thomas disappeared overjhe'sid* “Do you think you can make it, honey?” Paul asked Joan, -looking anxiously into her white face. “I’U go first .and you follow me.” Tremulously Joan obeyed. Thf ladder swayed with her weight and the rope scraped her hands as: she grasped it fiercely. Step.Tjy step she went down until at last she felt Paul’s arms lifting her to safety. - Thomas loosened the rope that held them to the ship. “This won't work, Mr. O’Malley. They’ll shoot us like dogs; We haven’t a chance.” But he was wrong. They rowed away unmolested. The ship war like a ghost; not one- of the crew was in-sight.

MONDAY:.THE DAY OF AUTHORITY LESSON TlfiXT—Matthew 21:12-22.' •GOLDEN TEXT-My house BbaU be called a bouse of prayer lor all peoples.—Isaiah 36:7. Modern presentations of Christ in picture and sermon often give the impression , that He was an effemi­nate man who went about doing.gen- tle Httle deeds of kindness. One al­most feels that He spoke in a. half whisper and to t He fearfully avoid­ ed the difficulties and dangers of life.Such a picture of Christ, whether in words or . on canvas, was never obtained from the Bible. Yes, He was gentle and kind; He did go about doing good; He was altogeth­er humble—hut why give .the false impression that gentleness, means weakness, kindness means a senti­mental softness, etc. These are the virtues of a strong man and such was our Christ. He was a manly man who so excited the .admiration of' the boys In the temple that they shouted a holy “Hurrah” (Hosanna —in Hebrew). On Monday as our Lord came into the city He saw and dealt with the fruitless fig tree and later in the day He cleansed the temple. This seems to be the order of the events (see Mark 11) and we will so consider, them. I. Jesus Stimulates Faith by an Act of Judgment (w. 18-22). Bi the morning as Jesus returned to Jerusalem, He was hungry. He had probably spent the night in prayer after His time of fellowship with the disciples (Mark 11:11). It was early spring, and normally not the time for figs to. be reaily to eat, but He saw a free.which,already-had foliage on it. Since the leaves,form after the fruit, He properly looked for figs—green, perhaps, Wit'even so useable' for food—and.ther* were none. . \ , n r. KIn a swift ^miracle of'Judgment, He condemned the tree, WhicK .soon withered. ■ Some- have assunrted that He acted in anger,: :biit thatis evi­ dently not‘so. - His act.ivas.a sign' t4 Israel and to us. The fig tree was. a figure of Israel (see Hosea9:10, Joel 1:7,-Liike 13:6-9). THey as a nation had the outward’ Bigns of fruit, that • is,: the > “lefnres” \0f tem- > pie worship, teaching of the law, etc., but there was no fruit of re­ pentance and faith, of real love for God (see Bom. 2:17-23). Judgment was certain, and our . Lord cursed .a useless, fruitless tree to try to, awak­ en the people to their need. V So our Lord come,; to u&—to Iool 7 below the foliage of Christian pro- fession. of our charities and: benevo­ lences, » of.. our.,, correct^dgctrinal viewft—to. sse if. there.is ,anyfniit .of real Christian living. Howiitten He must turn-awayrTn sadrifeS1 because there is none.This .miracl$ W asnqt onlyia ,sign of judgment; it .was used -by.Our Lord to stimulate the discigles’ faith. What they had seen' was only an indication of what faith (and note it was their faith) could do. The prom­ise of Gdd to those who. abiding in) Christ and with His Word abiding in their l^eart, ask.according to.,His will, in faith- nothpg. doubtipg, . is without H. Jesus; StiiinnjatesPraise Jtyr an Act of Authority .(vv, ltl7). For aV M ^i’'^e,^e,^oVe,' out. from His Father’s libi&e 'those iWho had made it' i :place-<3 iti^iQiin-' iise, 'of '-bomnierchfiMetf eIfcfeiMiiy.' •This is a majestic picture. The Son of God and Son of Man steps into the center of this unholy traffic and with mighty, holy indignation (not anger) drives it out. The people, who had suffered long because of this religious racket, which paid a nice “cut” to the priests themselves (probably , as a “gift” eVen as such things are managed in our day), were jubilant. ;The boys who-were-'in‘the temple (for; such is doubtless the meaning jf ’’children” in v. IS) were so de­lighted at tiiis magnificent exercise of His divine authority that they broke out.- into. “Hosannas,” which, as we have suggested, were really a; holy. "Hurrah.” Well, , why- hot? Hur» rah-for our Lord! He will not tol­erate iniquity even though it hides under the cloak of religion. He is not afraid to speak out and to act against sin and corruption. Possibly the:church would reach a good many more men and boys in our day if it would step out in faith to fight the wrong and support the right. Then maybe the young men would shout, “Hurrah for the church,” instead of some of the things they are-saying. The chief priests and ^scribes were “soiie displeased” (v. 15) both by theacts .of- Jesus and the praise of the boys. They would be! And-they have a host of descendants who hold places: of'authority today—yes; even in the church—who would, be. Auch displeased if such things’ were; to happen now. But why fear them? IS it not Jiigh time that the people of Godhdnored their Lordbott'by faith- and good works, regardless pf what men may say? Ought we not to please God rather than men (see Acts 5:29 and Ps. 56:4)? -\ SEWING CIRCLE 8 094 Pattern No. 8094 TF PRIZES were .given out for *■ good apron designs, Pattern No. 8094 would be a blue ribbon win­ner.

IN ADVANCE • S SO Thenearerthe blackberry crop ' comes to ripening the more we hear ^ about a sugar shortage. Up to this hour we haven’t heard of anyone in North Carolina being arrested for not having an automo bile tax sticker on their windshield. We wonder if there will be a: many fibs told this week when sugar stamps are being signed tor as there is during tax listing time? AU these fellows who have been indicted, tried and convicted for stealing state funds at Raleigh are said to have been Democrats. Had they been Republicans no telling what would have happened to them. It is 'a good idea to always put the n. me of the person under the ^picture in a newspaper. We saw a picture Cf a friend of ours that we have known for more than 30 years, in a newspaper recently, but we would never have guessed who he was if bis name hadn’t appeared under the picture. It is only a little more than three weeks until the May primary. Since none of our Davie boys have any competition there will be but few votes cast around here. Re­ publicans have but one contest to settle in this nrimary, that of Solici­ tor. Avalon E. Hall, has an oppon­ ent in the person of G. D. B. Hard­ ing, of Yadkinville. Republicans In Davie, Wilkes, Yadkin, Avery and Mhchell counties can go to the primary on May 30th and vote for either Hall or Harding.

S. Proctor, super, intendent county schools. . Ushers for the occasion, will be Lucille Reavis, Willis Davis, Jesme Libby Stroud and Sheek Bowden, Jr. The public is cordially invited. As well as we can figure and guess, Davie county has about 300 young men in the army, navy and marines. Some of them enlisted, and many were drafted. During the first World War, Davie couuty sent 357 young men to the various camps in this country. Many of them saw foreign service, while some remained in this country. Out of this number all but 17 returned home after the armistice was signed. Seven or eight of them were killed in action while the others died in camp, most of them with Au and spinal meningitis. We trust that our boys who are in this war will fare as well or even .better than those who were fighting 25 years ago. Younts Fined $1,500 Col. Paul R. Younts, former Charlotte postmaster, was fined $1,500 in Federal court at States­ ville last week. Younts, together with three' other Charlotte post, office employees were tried on charges of obtaining funds for poli­ tical purposes from federal em­ ployees. S. F. Croft was fined $500 ; T. L.

EW YORK. — Young Ezequiel Fadilla of M exico prepared for his country’s revolt against Diaz by a course a t the Sorbonne.

H e not only helped bring his country through, from the feudal D iaz regim e, into the m odem world, but a t .the Rio conference scored heavily in tooling the Latin-A m eri- can republics into the w orld politi­ cal orbit of the U nited N ations. P adilla is M exico’s foreign m in­ ister, in W ashington in the interest of closer co-operation and better un­ derstanding betw een the two coun­ tries. M eeting the tall, handsom e and engaging D r. Padilla for the first tim e a t a recent press luncheon, this' reporter put him down as som ething now am ong political or diplom atic envoys. This im pression of unique­ ness is perhaps due to the fact th at his m ind is a t once lum inous and poetic, -and shrew d, m uscular and com bative. H e seem s to vision a w orld in which, it w ill be safe to be civilized—providing you are also w ary. D r. Padilla’s talk w as “ off the record,” but w ith bis perm is- ' ' sion w e are allow ed to report its m ain outline. The w orld can­ not and will not be reorganized on any basis of traditional Im ­ perialism . The alternative is co­ operation, os the basis of a just and ratian-allotm ent of w orld re­ sources. This co-operation, D r. Padilla is calm ly assured, will com e. It will m ean a steadily rising standard of living, for all the peoples of the earth, au­ tom atically a safeguard a g a in st' the glutting of trad e channels and the rise of feverish national­ ism which lead to w ar. There w ill be a genuine “ culture and science” of living. D r. Padilla grew up in a rem ote m ountain village in G uerrero, won a scholarship a t the U niversity of M exico, and later one which took him to the Sorbonne. H e continued his studies a t Columbia. B eturning to M exico, a s a deputy from his na­ tive state, he becam e secretary of public education, m inister plenipo­ tentiary to H ungary and Italy, and in 1940, m inister of foreign affairs. ♦-- r P A L K of national defense in W ash- ington is highly personalized and is apt to center on this or that spark-plug of the arm y or navy, who touches off action and gets ef- CemtdGetuJarman s u lts V P re- D e fu se s All Drags c is e ly in Of Disorgatdxation Point is big, genial M a].

His showing of achievem ent both before and after P earl H arbor ought to be a good prescription for insom nia, if any considerable portion of the pop­ ulace is w orrying about bom bs. W hen G eneral Jarm an w as sent to P anam a in June, 1940, less than one- fifth of the guns there could be fired, because of the lack of am m unition and personnel. By N ovem ber of that y ear he had brought the artillery defense up to 100 p er cent efficiency. W hen he began the organiza­ tion of defense in the C anal Zone region he w as w arned th a t Jun­ gle w orkers would snffer dis­ astrous m ortality from m alaria and th at the operations should be preceded by a survey of m eans to com bat, the scourge. H e called in the best available m edical advisors, dem anded a w orkable form ula for im m uniza­ tion, got one, in a hurry—con­ sisting m ostly of quinine—and started building his posts deep in the jungle, including large- scale housing units for bis m en. The general's whirlw ind prog­ ress brought him 'a call to the States and upped him to the anti-aircraft com m and, under Gen. H ugh A .

M orale is one of G eneral Jarm an ’s specialties and his, com m unication;. ..w ith his m en are entirely colloquial. He likes to stroll through a mess, hall and ask the boys how they like- the food. If one of them replies th a t, th e -c h o w ' is getting pretty schm alsk, or w ords to th at effect, he listens, investigates, decides and acts, if need be, or, if he finds that the soldier is ju st ,grousing on gen­ eral principles, he tells the soldier to take w hat he gets and like it. It works. The m en regard him as their friend and .em ulate him as a •elf-starter.

Tbe driver who neglects his tires today w ill soon becom e a pedestrian. D rive only w hen absolutely necessary, and then drive a t a m oderate speed. S tart and stop slowly, slow dow n on turn s, and park care­ fully to keep from grinding oft the tread and nicking the rub­ ber off your tires.

If your w heels a re correctly aligned and bal­ anced, th e cross-sw itching w ill add m iles and m iles to each tire’s life. Check the a ir pressure of all your tires each w eek.

M otorists there w ill learn th at their tires a re unsafe (alas!) if the. fabric, breaker' strijp, o r outer body ply is exposed. Also th a t if th e tire has cuts o r snags g reater than an inch in any direction and deep enough to expose body fabric, it is then in the unsafe condition. F u r­ therm ore, if th e tire h as a bulge, it is dangerous to use, for patches or boots a re not sufficient protection.

B ut the tim e w ill soon com e w hen you w ill be thinking about having your tires recapped or retreaded. If you a re one of those fortunate persons w hose application w as ap­ proved by your local tire rationing board, then a few suggestions m ay prove valuable. R ecapping, w hich is vulcanizing a tread surface onto a 'partially' rem aining tread, and re ­ treading, w hich m eans stripping old tre a d off the tire and replacing it w ith a new tread and vulcanizing onto the casing, is done w ith the g reatest of econom y and safety when the following rules are rem em ­ bered: U se only tire cases which have no cracks, punctures o r flaws. R ecap tire s th at a re not w orn through to the cords of the casing. Don’t allow anyone to recap or retread your tires unless he can m eet a Iflgh standard of w orkm an­ ship. W hen you decide on a certain shop to retread o r recap your tires be sure th at their services a re reliable, their m aterial the best available, and the w orkm anship as good as, or better than, any other shop. Cheeking on G as and Oil. O nce you have beg ra to follow these rules and suggestions for your tire protection and safety you should center your attention on the gasoline er.

A lm ost four tim es a s m uch oil is used a t 'flS m .p.h. than a t a« 40-mile top cruising speed. The difference: is even greater when, a c a r is equipped w ith an oil filter. If you w ant to be a safe, driver and also conserve gas, oil, tires, besides lives of other m otorists, and pedestrians, rem em be'r these few rules for driving today: S tart early on each trip so you can get to your destination w ithout using excessive speed. ’ Drive' a t a m oderate speed suited to the conditions of the highw ay on w hich you a re traveling. Don’t pass any m ore c ars th an the num ber you observe passing you.. Speed up gradually,, but shift from one gear to .another as quickly as possible. Slow down -gradually.

Many years ago I realized there is. a great and wonderful opportun Ity of doing good through the print ing press, therefore began writing and sending my productions to a few publications. My first produc­ tions were in rhyme, then I began to write articles; and later on, af.I 7 7ter entering the ministry, I started writing sermons for publication. The Union Republican was the first paper to use my sermons, and for more than twenty-seven years they have appeared In its columns. This is a little more than halt of my life. My productions in this paper of articles, poems and serm­ ons would make 27 good sized vol­ ume. if they could all be published in book form. In fact they would make 54 nice little volumes. How. ever, much of my material this pa. per has used through the years could not.be collected together now perhaps, as I failed to keep a copv mvself, therefore it would be bard to find it all In the hands of ngr readers. Surely God has richly blessed my Quiet Corner in the Union Repub lican, along with the letters and poems'that have appeared in the Young People’s Department. Dur- ing all these years I have not failed bnt once to send in my weekly con­ tribution, this being due to illness. I sincereiy believe I shall meet a vast host of my readers of this pa. per in heaven some glorious day..' My great desire is to do all the good I can, and this is mede pos­ sible on a very large scale through the printing press. I can reach a few people from the pulpit with the Gospel and the truth of God, but nothing in comparison to what I reach through print. My read­ ers are found throughout the na­ tion and in foreign countries. I have had a number of books pub­ lished, and these have gone into thousands of homes. They will.be read long after I leave this world, if otir Lord tarries. Then, realiz ing that print" may live for ages to either bless or curse the world, I have endeavored to be very careful not to write anything that is erron­ eous, unclean,- unwholesome and misleading, I wouldn’t be in the place Of some authors for a thous and worlds. Why? Because they have cursed the world with their writing. They have led people wrong, and maybe been the means of a vast host of souls going to hell. A solemn thing indeed. Today my articles,' poems and messages go into quite a number of publications besides the Union Re­ publican. Following is a list of the papers in which they appear, either weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly, or every two months, or from time to time as space permits. The Cher- tyville Eagle, The Davie Record, The Journal-Patriot, The Taylors-, ville Times, The Charlotte Ooser- ver. The Pilgrim Tract Messenger, Vaughan’s Family Visitor, The Forerunner, TheFentecostal Her­ ald, The Christian Witness, The Home Missionary, The Gospel Ban. ner, Pillar of Fire, Herald of Light and Zion’s Watchman, The Caro lina Watchman, Church of Christ Advocatel^The Wesleyan Methodist, American Holiness Journal, Taber­ nacle Telescope, etc. I have also bad a poem published annually in Blum’s Almanac for several years. Besides this, I have written a num­ ber of tracts which have been pub­ lished by tens of thousands Then as my writings appear in various publications they are selected - Iqr other'writers and editors, and go in­ to papers that I do not contribute to. Besides all my correspondence to the publications named above, my personal correspondence'across "the years has been much, My readers up and down the land write me for various reasons. .Many write re­ questing prayer for themselves or loved ones, or for grace and strength to enable them to stand their trials and persecutions. Oth­ ers write in regard to their prob­ lems. Some write about their hab. its, or personal and home affairs and difficulties. Many write to tell me how they appreciate my writ­ ings, and ask me to continue. Oc­ casionally someone writes a critical letter, or one of faultfinding. Such letters are rare, and I rarely ever reply to them, praying that God will save them, or deal with them * as He sees best. Across the years quite a number of my readers . hav. written me wonderful letters of encouragement and have sent contributions, usu- ally small, to help meet my expen. ses and to enable me to go on with the good work. This has been a great help and blessing. No pub­ lication pays' ine anything for my writing, therefor.*, the contributions of my readers of my readers have enabled me to accomplish what I otherwise could not have accomp. Iished- This I greatly appreciate, and may Gbd bless and richly re­ ward each and every one who have contributed of their means toward my support. In doing this you are enabling me to reach many thous­ ands of people with the truth that I could not possibly reach In any other way.

Gas Rationiog Regis­ tration Thu Week. Registration .of car and truck owners for gasoline rationing - will be on May 12, 13 and 14 and rat­ ioning will begin on May 15 . Late news dispatches from the nation’s capital- indicate .that there will be enough gas for all necessary purposes but none to be used to at tend bridge parties, dancesjuidoth­ er social affairs. Officials have again called on the teachers to handle the gasoline re­ gistration as they did the selective service registrations and the sugar registrations now in progress. Due to a shortage of transporta­ tion facilities, a temporary gasoline rationing system will be set up to last Until July 1 , at which time a more permanent rationing system in accordance with supplies antid pated will be set up. Since annbuncement of gasoline rationing was made, there have been different statements made by national officials as to the amount of gasoline which will be available for the average motorist and it may be several days before any definite amount is set.

This registration is a very im­ portant part of the war effort, and while we probably will involve no military service for the registrants it does mean that they willbeclasi- fied and sorted in a way that will enable the government to put its finger on the right man for the right place in whatever plans it has for backing up the armed forces. AniLour enemies who never ex­ pected us to gear the nation so quickly and so.completely to a war economy, won’t get any comfort from what happened th.oughont the nation this week. Yet .with all this transformation the greater part of the strength of this nation has yet to be brought to bear upon the war effort. The enemy has been unimpressed by the activity of our navy, and has felt the bite of our military strength lit­ tle at all. But both these arms will get into action in a big way In due time, and it is then that the civilian population will be required to back up the Tear. If our noncombatant man' power is intelligently catalo­ gued its organization will be made the easier and its utilization to the very, best advantage. okUters who went to their registra. tion places Monday and enrolled blindly-for whatever, service their government calls them, can count themselves as part of the great A- merican army which is setting out to win this war, no matter What the cost. Their uniform "may be the modest overall, on which there will be no chevrons, and few medals. But they will be soldiers in the cause just the same. If any of. us has taken this call lightly, he' has only to. reflect, on what the future may hold: If this war is to be won quickly.there will be need for every hand to help ; in every sphere of, active; if on- the. contrary it is prolonged, undream, ed sacrifices will have tb be made— by'those, who have told their gov­ ernment-this week they are willing to make them—Siatesville Daily.

There are other varieties of heels we could do without, too. Speaking of a nice place to put those thousands of dangerous aliens in California, how about the Grand Canyon? There may be a shortage of gas over the country but we wonder how Congress ever foijjsd it out, with all the gas there.

Cotton Textiles By Mil­ lions In Sleepers Enough cotton sheets and pillow cues to tuck zo6 times the entire population of Mocksville into bed were purchased Iu t year by The Pullman Company. Its total bed linen inventory, an­ nounced in Chicago today by Frank S. Rick, general storekeeper, would be sufficient -to give clean sheets and slips to each ot the 1,607 men, women, and children of Modcsville every night for 729 nights. Pull­ man owns 2,342,186 sheets and 1 ,- 881,387 slips, worth about £2,000,- 000. This unique view into the opera, tions of the sleepi -g car company, which was probably the largest user of linens in the world before the war expanded the requirements of the armed services, was offered to the cotton industry which in 1941 sold more than £260,000 worth of sheets and slips alone to Pullman. The total estimated value of all linens in the inventory report was put at £2,571 ,000,and the annual Uuudry bill in recent years h u ex­ ceeded £1,500,000. With the price' of c< tton higher now than two years ago, Pullman expects to surpass its 1941 pur­ chases, provided its increased orders for linens are not curtailed, Rick pointed out. Often called “the world’s greatest housekeeper,” Pullman plays , host to more than 40,000 travelers nightly. Its fleet of cars, now numbering 7 ,000, has presented a rich source of income to the cotton industry since 1859 , when the first sleeping car was put on the tracks. There are nearly 8 ,500,000 se­ parate pieces of Unen on cars or in company storerooms and laundries, the report showed, and the average Pnilman carries with it 160 sheets and 120 SUps when it leaves on each two-night trip. Recent large- scale movements of troops in sleep­ ing cars have quickened the linen turnover, hot Rick said that soldiers have Slept in clean linen every night, on their trips, without neces­ sitating any restrictions on normal passenger service.

He eon* fesses he has a.wife in Germany and is part ol it Nad spy ring. Paol Sher­ man, his manager, reveals to Joan that he really .Is Paul O'Malley, an FBI agent, trying to trap the spy-ring higher- ups and Joan agrees to help him. Joan’s sister, Sybil, Is missing and Panl be­ lieves Karl Is holding her as a hostage. Pat Hines, a new singer for Karl, is really PanPs yoong run-away sister, Pa­ tricia, and she Innocently betrays PanPa Identity to Karl, who captures Paid and Joan as they discover incriminating evidence. He spirits them away on a boat and they find !hey are In love. A submarine appears to pick op bomber plans stolen by KarL Thomas, a vic­ tim of Karl's, slips a gun to Joan, who shoots Karl as he Is about Co shoot Paid. Then Paul sends Thomas to recover the evidence from the ship's safe. They escape In a lifeboat. Now continue with Ihe story. CHAPTER XVI Paul looked from Joan to Thomas. "Now’listen, both of you. This may be something of a shock but Karl was not dead. He had a nasty wound but he’s probably still very much alive.” Thomas looked terror-stricken. “Then he’ll find us.” “We were allowed to escape from that ship for a purpose. We will doubtless be picked up by other members of.the ring as soon as we land. We’re off the coast of Mexico now. About Mazatlan, if my calcu­ lations are correct.”And less than an hour later they were picked up by a fishing boat and landed at a Mazatlan hotel. The hotel proved to be old and magnificent, with beautiful tiled floors and high-beamed ceilings and ramps instead of stairways. It ap­ peared practically deserted except for the yawning clerk who assigned them to rooms. Joan was surprised that Paul spoke Spanish. “Is there anything you can’t do?” she asked.“I specialized in languages in col­ lege and it comes in handy with my job. I never know where I’ll be next.”Joan felt better after a hot bath. Joan enjoyed her first taste of pa­ paya and the oversized cups of cof­fee served with hot milk and huge lumps of unrefined sugar. “No won­der everyone seems so lazy. Noth­ing to do but eat and sleep and breathe this heavenfy air.”Thomas looked up in disgust. “ Sometimes I think you two are nuts.. Tou sit there and wait for Karl’s gang to come after you as if the whole thing is a joke. I don’t get it. Why don’t we get out of here right now while we still have a chance?”“If you tried it, you’d find out how much chance you have.”“Where are they then?” Thomas demanded. "Don’t be impatient. They’ll be with us soon enough.” But when Thomas had gone back to. his' room and Joan and Paul walked in the tropical garden patio of the hotel, she said seriously, “Thomas is right, Paul. Why don’t we leave before it’s too late?” “This is the end of the trail, hon­ey. Even if they let us get away, which they won’t, what would we have gained? Their next move will lead to the heart of this afiair.. It’s what I’ve been waiting for all these months.” They strolled through the garden where every variety of tropical fruit end flower was exhibited-by nature’s lavish hand. “It’s so beautiful and so peace­ ful,” Joan whispered.Paul held her hand tightly. “Be patient, dearl Just a little while * longer and everything will be Cleared up, and when we’re mar­ ried I promise you I’ll take a vaca­tion and there won’t be a single mystery to solve.” .“Darling, I don’t care where we go just so we aren’t being followed, or,” she added laughing, “following someone else.” “Not a single person,” Paul prom­ ised, “I’ll guarantee to be under foot every hour. You’ll probably .be tired of seeing me around so much.”• • • During the next three days Joan’s fortitude began to waver; She un- - derstood Paul’s devotion to duty, fiut in her heart she longed to escape, to go home,-to be married, to give up the chase which seemed to grow more dangerous and futile: all the . time. “I don't know why I’m sticking around here,” Thomas complained as the three of them sat in the de­serted hotel bar watching Uie shafts of sunshine fall through grilled iron windows. “You’re staying because'' you’re afraid to leave,” Paul said, “and you’re smart enough to realize it.” Iliomas stared at him. “This place is driving me crazjr.” He looked around the empty bar in dis* gust. - The bartender dozed. The warm sweet air was heavy and languorous. “Where is everybody?” “Didn’t you ever hear of a si­esta?” Paul inquired. “I’ve, heard- of it,” Thomas said, “But people who have Karl Miller’s gang after them aren’t apt to waste, time taking siestas. “Nothing doing. I’m sorry you two have to.stay but it isn’t safe t>~ Someone was tapping gently at her door. She sat op in bed. "Wbo’i there?" she demanded. you to leave alone. Believe me, it wouldn’t work.”Thomas sighed. “Okay, if you say so . . . Bartender!” he yelled, “bring me another bottle of beer.”The bartender shook his head, muttered “Si,-senor,” and hurried over with the beer. But at the sight of Joan he paused.“You. are Miss Joan Leland? Yes?” “ Why?” Paul asked flatly. The bartender broke into Span­ ish. There was a torrent of words and gestures. “What does he say?” Joan asked. “It seems there was a man look­ing for you here. An American. He gave him ten pesos to get some in­ formation about you. He doesn’t know what his name was though.’' “Karl?” "Not a chance. Karl wouldn’t be apt to row all the way to shore. And the ship isn’t in sight. I’ve been watching to see.” ‘ “But who in the world could it have been?” The bartender, feet on the bar, had returned to his siesta. “What a country I” Thomas mut­tered. “If someone wanted Joan, why didn’t they telephone the ho* tel? We’re all registered under our own names.” Paul laughed. “This is what is known as the subtle approach.” “Pauli Be serious!” Joan insisted “Okay,” Paul said, leaning for­ ward and surveying her with his kind brown eyes. “It’s probably one of Karl’s men. They want to get the idea across that they’rearound, and this is their way of doing it. They may want to make further contact wjith. you. I don’t know. They’re probably- picking on you in­ stead of me as a gentle warning that if anything goes wrong, you’ll be the one to pay for it. However, that’s looking at it in the worst pos­sible light.” He took her hand. "’Don’t worry, honey. I’U do all I can.” “Maybe Karl has some Mexi­ cans working for him,” Thomas sug­gested. v “I don’t think so. Besides, this jnan spoke English, and if he had been able to speak Spanish he cer­ tainly would have done so, because the bartender 'was barely able to understand him.” “So now we start waiting all over again?” Thomas asked. “That’s about it.” She shivered. “Let’s go,” she urged. ■ They visited the . cathedral, the park, and finally took in a movie. They walked leisurely back to the hotel. Dinner was never served un­to nine o’clock. As they turned on to the long avendia which bordered Ihe sea, one of the few automobiles they had seen turned the corner sharply. 'That man!” Joan cried. “I have the strangest feeling I know him) I couldn’t see him very well, but I’m sure of it.” "Maybe it’s the man who was try­ ing to get in touch with you,” Thom­ as Said. "Maybe it’s one of Karl’s men that you used to see around the dub in San Francisco.” 'That could easily be possible,” Paul said. “But' I don’t connect him with anyone at the dub;” Joan said puz-. zled., “It gives me the queerest feeling.” She was still worrying about it after dinner when Thomas an­ nounced that he was going to “do the town.” “Watch your step,” Paul advised. “Don’t get absent-minded and try to escape." "Don’t worry about it, Mr. O’Mal­ley!' You’ve’got'me buffaloed. I'll stick around and watch the fire­ works.” Joan retired early but she lay awake in the huge four-poster bed wondering abouf ,the man she had seen. Who was he? Why couldn’t she place him? The roar of the sea and sweet night air filled the roopi. Moonbeams flitted across the stone floor like shimmering mist. She looked uneasily towards the .old- fashioned door.' She had looked and -bolted it but it rattled in; the wind. . She was ' almost asleep when a sound disturbed her.'. Someone was tapping gently at her door. She^sat up in bed. ' "Who’s" there?” she de­manded. No one replied. She drew^ on the colorful Mexican robe and slippers' she had bought and tiptoed-to the door. “Who’s there?” die repeated.Thomas’ voice came to her. “It’s me, miss. I’ve, something to tell you.” Quickly she unbolted the door and snapped on the light. "What’s the trouble?” she asked, annoyed. "Why don’t you tell Mr. O’Malley what­ever it is?” “I can’t,” Thomas whispered, looking over his shoulder. “I’ve found a way to get out of here.” Joan eyed him coldly. “Have you been drinking?”“Only a few,” Thomas insisted. “Listen, Miss Leland, I met a man tonight who will take us back to the States. He’s an American and he’s flying back home tomorrow. He has his own plane and when I told him we were stranded . . . ”“You shouldn’t have done that!” “Maybe not, but I’m scared, Miss Leland. This guy is okay so I took a chance. He was swell about it. Said he’d be glad to help us. I told him I thought you’d/be willing to go too and-he Wants to see you. He’s downstairs right now.” “Paul will never consent to leave,” Joan said slowly, “and'I can’t leave him. I don’t blame you, Thomas, but you know Mt. O’Malley said it wasn’t safe. Hgweveri if you want to go, I suppose it’s all right." “Now look, Miss Leland,” Thom­ as begged. “At least go down and talk to this man. He’s waiting for you. .After alp ha's been pretty de­ cent about this whole thing. U you don’t see him, he’ll think there’s something phcuy about it and he won’t even take me.” Joan considered for a minute. "AU right, foi^puksaJceTll see him. But I’m not*5going' to4eave. .No one can perguade.me/?- .■.> ' . : “Okay,”S] Thomas said hurriedly. “Just back- me up on my story. That’s all ilask.” He departed and Joan dressed quickly, thinking how strange it was that now that she had a chance to escape she could not take it. It was impossible to consider leaving Paul. Even: sd, she could not’ blame Thomas.. And if corroborating his story would help, • she would be glad to do it. ARer all, he had given them all the aid . possible on file ship;.. She walked down the stone ramp to the dimly lit-lobby. A man was waiting for her, a man who was at once familiar to her. It was the same man she had glimpsed in the car that afternoon from the street “Mr. Midfdrdj ” she cried in. sur­ prise as she realized that it was in truth her former employer who now rose smilingly to greet her.“Joan! Tills ls a surprise!” Ar­thur Mulford said. “It is to me,” she admitted. “I heard you were here. I evet went so far-as-to ask the bartender for information about you, but I didn’t connect you' with Thomas." “Possible. Now'tell me, what is this all about?” They both sat down in the deep leather chairs. “I suppose Thomas has explained the''situation?" . Thomas was .standing on -the ve­randa smoking a cigarette; "appar­ ently preferring to let Joan do the talking. “Yes,” Mulford said with concern. “He tells me. you are in danger of being recaptured by some gang.' I must say it sounded a little' fan­tastic.” > > . “It’s the truth,” Joan said- grave­ ly. “After you discharged me I went to work f at a - night dub; the ClUb Elite, owned by a Karl Miller. I learned later-that he is-head of a-, spy ring in.this country. I also, met' Paul O’Malley, of the FBI, who is : trying to get evidence against KarU “And why dorft' you IeaveMaiat- lan?” Mulford inquired.'' •Pauly -1 that - is, Mr.- O’Malley,: is still trying to run down the rest of the gang.

Lesson for May 17 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se­lected and copyrighted by international Council ol Religious Education; used by permission. TUESDAY: THE DAZ OF CONFLICT LESSON TEXT—Matthew 22:41 —23:11 . GOLDEN TEXT—The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the comer.—Mark 12:10 . “By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?” Such was the challenge Christ faced when He came into the temple on the last day that- He was to be able to teach there. The chief priests and elders (Matt. s 21:23) asked it because they knew that they had received their authority with their offices, whether appoint­ ive or hereditary.Jesus held no sucn position, yet He had just driven the money chang­ ers out of what He called “my house” — the temple. They chal­lenged Him, and through the long day He answered and also , asked them questions. Here we find a rich store of parables, illustrations, un­ answerable arguments, as-He met the Pharisees, Sadducees, Herodians —all His enemies who, though they hated each other, made common cause against Jesus. The discus­ sion condudes with His facing of the Pharisees with I. The Ultimate Question—“What Xfaink Xe of the Christ?” (22:41-46). Ilie crux of the entire matter was right there for them, as_ it is for iis, though in a . somewhat different sense. They were looking for the- Messiah—the Christ; but their idea of Him was. that He would come as their royal leader, to break the yoke of Roman bondage and set them free. They knew He was to be the son of David, but they did not see in their own Scriptures that this one was to be David’s greater son. (Matt.l2:42); that in the line of David was to come the one whom David “in the spirit” called “Lord” (Ps. 110:1). They knew about Christ,- but they did noi know Him, and thus they were like many today'. They have'heard of Him; they itfayCeVen admire His character and His teach­ ings, but they do not know Him. What think'you, reader,' of Christ? Christ then states n. Tbe Final Test—Doing, Not Just Saying (28:1-4). . Having finally dosed their mouths (22:46) Jesus proceeded to.a solemn indictment of the scribes and Phari­ sees. First, of all He declared, that they failed in the final test of life, which is hot words but actions.Notice that He recognized their authority , and their teaching, but .in severe condemnation pointed out that they did not live what they pro- feSseaTTThSt ’ Is'tKe ' criterloa by which we shall all be judged. Those who think that because! they belong to Sonie church, or subscribe to a creed,, or speak a smooth word of testimony they .may then live as they please, will find theniselves standing with the -scribes and Phari­sees on the judgment day. Why keep- that kind of company?Such men ar? .capable of J r Hf. •> The Great Hypocrisy—Pride Posing As Piety (23:5-9). They. were. oh, so religious! In­terpreting IiteraUy and mechanical­ ly God’s command that they keep His law always near them in action (hand) and- in thought -(mind) (see Deut. 6 :8 ; 11:18), they made showy leather cases and .wore; Qiem on wrist and forehead'as containers of the written Word. They loved the chief seats and the titles, of distinc­tion. , And all this was .done .in the name of religion.: What hypocrisy! -But wait — are we any better? What about the preacher who is not happy unless he is invited into the pulpit? -What about those who take or accept the titles which our Lord expressly forbids? What about those in the. pew, as much as in the' pulpit (and perhaps more),-who want to be recognized as “the masters” of the church?-To be sure, they do not always wish it to be so crudely put as that, but they do' expect to^ be recognized as such “or else—.” This too, under the name of Christianity. There indeed is the great hypocrisy!We are thankful that our lesson does-not close here. Our Lord next revealed' IV: Bight AtHtude-Service Not Recognition (23:10, 11). He that is mastered of Christ is ready to-be the servantiof-'all. To exalt Him is. is at once do -away, with Velf-praise and self-glory. Pride in'position, and the r desire to be praised and recognized by men, in­ evitably "lead a 'man' into'a pitfall in which-he: is humbled.'

XT EW YORK--It appears to this ' onlooker that there is a lag in this war in issuing pencils and paper to song-writers and putting them on — ... _ „ a full - timeW aTtm eW eCtdl shift. We O af Song IVrifers made a fast ToHelpBetdAxis shlSmg *«*■ away in the First World war, with that one about the little bit of the sunshine in the YMCA almost beating the first crack of the guns. ' Possibly we are at least getting under way with Geoffrey O’Hara limbering up his writing-wrist with a ditty calculated to start a rush of bond-buyers to the neighborhood post office. Mr. O’Hara is a veteran song-leader of our 1918 singing and fighting days and the author of "K-K-K-Katy.” He has a copyright on “The Star Spangled Banner,” taken out and duly recorded in 1929. This was his stepped-down version of the Nation­ al Anthem. The copyright is a bit of a joke which, says Mr. O’Hara, will enable him to bequeath a singa­ble National Anthem to his country in his will.He scouted some interesting historical background in his.pro- fessional Study of "The Star Spangled Banner” and how we got it. In England and Wales, in the late Eighteenth century, it was sung by tavern roisterers as “Anacreon in Heaven.” Th# could reach the high notes easily. The explanation, Mr. O’Hara’s researches disclosed, was that in a cold, foggy «11 - ' mate the larnyx grows smaller, in order to keep out the weather. Therefore there are. more tenor voices.Mr. O’Hara probed still further and found that California had more basses and baritones than colder states. So he reset the anthem to a steam-heated singing range. He came to the United States in 1904, at the age of 22 and worked four years as a clerk in the Cana­ dian Bank of Commerce. AU that time he was writing songs, surprised and happy when Caruso suddenly featured his “Your Eyes Have Told Me,” and Al Jolson did the same for his “Tennessee.”Last month he was elected to membership on the board'of the American Society of Authors, Com­posers and Publishers. - He got his nautralization papers in 1919, and has been a diligent expounder of our democratic faith. WE’VE asked a lot of philoso­ phers, ,but we never-could get it straight as to whether there could be any humor in a perfect universe. ‘ _ .. It is some-Cets More money thing to wor- Kidding BttsebaIl ry about, as, ter millenium moving in after this war, there might not be any place for Al Schacht. His errant foolish­ ness wouldn’t do in such a perfect­ly ordered world. But, in our present state of some­what ostentatious imperfection, he stiU belongs, and today’s good news is that the “Clown Prince of Base­ ball” is still clowning over in New Jersey just now, stiU touring the baseball circuits, making everybody happy with his durable pantomime. We have an idea that if Al Schacht were shrewdly used he might be worth a brace of bat­tleships' to this country. As we see it many of the invocations of democracy which come from the Washington founts of erudi- - tion do, not quite get the public ear; that they need a bit of “corn,” in the Broadway lingo, or at any rate a widened public "■ appeal and a dash of humor. If Al Schacht should take to rib­bing Hitler before the baseball mobs, with an appropriate anti­ climax for Her Fuehrer at the finish, it ought to help a lot in getting over the news that there, is a war on.He was a top-bracket player, bought by the Giants in 1917, and can still put a hop on a fast ball. He was literally bom in left field— in the left field territory ,of'what is now the Yankee Stadium. He Was a whirlwind pitcher in high school baseball and was three years with Newark before the Giants bought him. He and Nick’Altrock formed, their famous comedy partnership with the Washington club. He is a bom comic and one of the best pantomimists in the coun­ try. When “Cash and Carry” Pyle, of Bunion. Derby fame was staging Suzanne Lenglen in tennis matches around the country, Al Schachtis act was a part of the program. It was a burlesque, of Suzanne which set the crowds wild. Suzanne. didn’t happen to see it for the first few matches but when she did:: .VMeester- Pjrle,- deescharge at once zees clown or deescharge me!” Hqhacfno trouble in making other engagements, his "take” rounding out *#wut .$89,000 a season.

Fat O’Brien’s youngsters — Ma- voiimeen, seven, and Sean, five, visited their father on location at the Alhambra airport for “He’s My Old Man,” and persuaded the tech­ nical advisor to take them on a flight. The “flight” consisted of taxi­ing from one end of the field to the other. Lynn Martin appeared several weeks ago in a singing commercial on the air’s .Radio Theater, and re­ ceived so much praise that when a night club sequence appeared in a later script she was promptly signed for it. Also, she was engaged to sing with Ray Noble’s band on the Edgar Bergen show. The last picture John Beal did in Hollywood before he went to New York to appear in a stage play was “The Man Who Found Himself,” In wMch Joan Fontaine was getting her start. He gave her a pep' talk, told her to stick to it and some day she’d win the Academy Award. She visited him on the set of "Atlantic Convoy” the other day. "I just came to tell you that you- told me so!” she said. Pat Friday, another young singer recently heard with Bergen, told Ray Noble that be played Cupid for her and her aviator-husband.

There are two reasons for this: Few Tibetans can read, and only 50 copies of their one newspaper are printed. . Walter Asboe, a European, does the job on a hand press. Then he sends the 50 papers to the lamas or priests, who summon the peo^ pie of the neighboring villages to listen to the news. The papers are then forwarded to another group of lamas. By the time they have traveled to the far frontiers of Tibet, the news may be from six months to two years old! s M s s s p i 1 ©WORLD S LARGEST SELLE' L“ Lightning Flashes Flashes of lightning from a cloud to the earth have been less than 3,000 feet in length, while flashes from one cloud to another have been more than 20 miles in length.

BOAD PPST CAN BE LAID IQTH CALCIUM CHLOBIDE TA UST on a road, a tennis court or other open space can b* -laid with calcium chloride flakes. This chemical can be obtained In many hardware stores and from dealers in mason materials and road supplies, and is inexpensive. It Aould be scattered on the surface at the rate' of a pound and a half to toe square yard. Even on a dry day toe chem­ical will be liquefied by moisture picked up from toe air and the liq­ uid in combining with toe surface dust, will form a crust. A few days later, another application should be made .at the rate of a pound to toe square yard. The crust formed by these two applications should last for some weeks. The crust will not be injurious to the paws of dogs and other small animals or to horses’ hooves. Calcium chloride draws water from anything with which it is in contact. For instance, shoe leather will be dried out For protection, rubber boots- or over­ shoes should be worn when working with it also gloves. Wet Streak on Wall Question: There is a wet Streak on the wall of toe entrance of a small apartment that starts about the middle of May; it dries out in clear warm weather, but appears In any humid period. Itdoesnotshow when toe furnace is going. A plumb­ er blamed toe root but toe roofer claims that it is from toe plumbing. Neither of them can locate the leak.' What, can you suggest? Answer: From your description the wet spot is evidently Drom con­densation. The spot where it ap­ pears is at a lower temperature than the house air. This may be be­ cause some part of toe masonry wall projects through and is in direct contact with the plaster, or because openings in toe wall, subject that portion to a current of cool air. To check on this, compare the tempera­ ture of that portion of toe wall with that of another portion that remains dry. ' The remedy depends so much on construction that it can be told only after an inspection. Worn SheIlao Question: Several years ago our floors were given one coat of shellac, but owing to conditions, we were un­able to do more. The shellac has now worn off in spots, but under furniture and in other protected - places it is as good as new. Must the floors be sanded again? Answer: That will not be needed. You can take toe remaining shellac from the worn places by wiping with denatured alcohol. Then ap­ply two coats of top quality shellac, not more than six months old—get the assurance of the dealer on this point—thinned with two quarts of denatured alcohol to every three quarts of shellac. Moving Walls Question: Foundations of - our walls are hollow concrete Mock. The walls seem to be moving out, and the inside wall finish is cracking. The contractor recommends a con­ crete retaining wall on two sides from toe ground level to beiow toe footings. Do you think this would be wise? Answer: The ground under your house evidently is filled in, or in. the nature of quicksand. If toe con­tractor knows his business and has- made a thorough examination, his recommendation probably is correct. If possible, ask him to give you a written guarantee of satisfactory re­sults. Water Softener Question: For toe last' five years I have been using a water softener that I bought second-hand. For this reason I do not know how old it is. For toe past two yean toe zeolite has had to be regenerated with in­ creasing frequency. I use about 100 pounds of salt per month. Can toe efficiency of toe zeolite be restored? Or must I purchase a new filling? Answer: The zeolite has undoubt­ edly lost its efficiency. . Considering toe. length of time toe softener has been in use, I think that it has done- very well. Write to toe manufactur­er about procuring another charge. ’ Wasps Question: Wasps have made a nest under the eaves of our house. They did this last summer..' What can we do now to drive them out and keep them from returning? Answer: At dusk oil a cool eve-' ning, when the wasps-will be dor- mant, spray toe nest heavily and suddenly with kerosene, which wQl stun them. Provide a stout paper bag, Mg enough to enclose-the nest, which can be broken- off in­ side it and then burned. Shmild toe wasps show signs of returhhig, ei­ ther this season or next, swab that section of toe eaves' with kerosene. Field Mice Question:'We have just bought a Bummer home and have heard that field mice might get into the mat­ tresses and couches. How. can this be prevented? Answer: As toe last thing in clos­ ing the house at ton end of toe sea­ son, scatter one or two pounds-.of moth balls or even more over the furniture and in every room.. Pro­ vide a box to fit over the top of the chimney, for that is one path by which mice and chipmunks might get in.

So, today, I’ve planned a menu which even the youngest cooks can make into a glorified meal to which they can invite their mothers. Now, young >coobs, on your toes if you would gather laurels at Moth­er’s day luncheon time! Bring out the measuring cups and ingredients, first. Then read the recipes over several tones and visualize each step before you start. Ready? Good.

Eggs are plentiful now because the government asked’ farmers to have their bens work overtime to increase egg production' that they might be sent abroad and have enough for home use. So, bring out toe eggs and their surplus of nutrition to menus by choosing one of these two recipes for your main luncheon dish. Eggs are noted for toe. facility with which they can be cooked, and there is but one major rule to follow in cooking them: use as little heat as possible to get a tender product. •Eggs a Ia King.

This means we will be usingseveral substitutes.You smart homemakers will learn how to use maple sugar, where you like maple , flavoring. One and one-third cups of maple sugar may be substituted for one cup of granulated, sugar. Honey, oldest sweetening, has versatile uses. 'Use it on. your breakfast, fruits, cereals, sauce for ice cream, in cakes, quick- b re a d s, cookies,- ev e n in su g a rs, ja m s a n d je llies.

Molasses makes your ginger­breads, baked beans, brown bread, cakes and even cookies.. Besides these substitutes you’ll have dried fruits which are' high in sugar content. When stewing fruits, add sugar toward the end of the cooking period: it will take less to sweeten the fruit. Make desserts with fruit juices, both canned and fresh, and you will find it bridges the sugar ra­tion well. Above all, do not waste sugar. You can probably get along with less in the morning coffee and tea. Try it.

Wisconsin Dairy Queen Mtes Ruth Krnmheuer, knows of toe dairy ben­ efits obtained from toe modern, well- tinned pall, wbleh she Is holding. Thei two weeks’ old Holstein calf looks like a coming winner, too. Iy 12 per cent greater production than was obtained in 1941. The re­ quired increasff in cheese and con­centrated milk can be seemed by a.-7 per cent increase in all manu­ factured, dairy products if some, of toe total production is shifted from creamery butter to'toe concentrated forms. NeedWQlBeMet. . Creamery butter made up approx­ imately 70 per cent of all manufac­ tured dairy products in 1941, so any significant diversion of milk from the manufacture of butter will-meet toe needs for more milk to be made into cheese or to be condensed or evaporated. * The production of dried milk in 1941 was less than the 1940 production,'TJht a larger share of the total was prepared for human consumption. The consumption of fluid milk in cities has not increased^ at the rate expected, Incrieased payrolls and greater-quantities, of milk avatiable do not induce urban .citizens to con­ sume the amount of milk needed for adequate diets. •, - Rural economists believe that, toe best interests of toe dairy, industry at present require a definite policy as to price and of quantities of prod­ucts to be purchased'and stored, if increased, jproductioin is to be main­tained with the least expenditure of productive facilities..,; Tractor Trouble Advice , If ihe farm tractor lacks pep, better check up on 'valves and valve mechanism. If there is re­bound’ on each , .compression stroke when the engine is cranked slowly, the valves are - closing properly, Lack of compression means waste of fuel and loss’ of power.Sticky Valves. Lack of compression in toe farm tractor may be caused by sluggish or sticky engine valves. Enghieers say this cause of pow­ er and fiiel waste can often be remedied with a Qttle .kerosene.

T hat is divine love. W hat a w onderful life it is to live when the youth loves God and all that is noble, clean, right, pure and holy! T h a t is so m uch better than love the vain, evil, sinful, wicked things of the world. T he youth who fol­ low s Charity shuns th e degrading, destructive, dem oralizing things of evii. H e shuns bad com pany, bad habits, bad and destructive influ ences. H e leaves off th e evils of th e world and puts on the rig h t, eousness of God. H e doesn’t1 fol­ low after vain, foolish, hurtful sty­ les and fashions. H e isn 't enslav­ ed by them . H e doesn’t follow the allurem ents the devil places in his pathw ay, which m ultitudes are cap tivated and defeated' w ith. H e doesn’t spend his tim e and m eans to gratify the lusts of the flesh. T he SOAmIled pleasures of the world lose their charm for him . H e sees the beautiful things of godliness and righteousness, and has in his heart and soul m uch of the sweet­ ness of heavenly blessings, there­ fore looks up and clim bs heaven­ ward. H e has found the pearl of pleasure in Jesus C hrist and H is glorious service, therefore the world of evil has lost its charm for him . T he youth who.loves God and inan kind out of a pure heart fervently certainly will bless the world and leave his m ark on the shores of tim e to live after him . H allelujah! T hen Paul told T im othy -to fol­ low peace. I t is a great and m ar­ velous thing for the youth to have the peace of God in bis heart, m ind, soul and spirit, and to ‘ 'follow peace w ith all m en, and holiness, w ithout w hich no m an shall se eth e L ord.” H ow aareet is the peace of God in the heart and Soul! T he world m ay be in strife and confusion, w arfare and bloodshed, but if God’s peace is in one’s soul, and he is follow­ ing peace w ith all m en, life to him is sw eet and happy. H e feels th at he "ow es no m an anything but to love him . “ Peace, sw eet peace, O how th e wicked world needs it! Jf all m en would folioW’peace it would be a different world in w hich to Iive- W arsan d bloodshed wonld cease. H atred would give way to love. Men wtiuld bless their, fel­ lows instead of cursing them . T hey would save life rather than destroy it. Id fact this business of destroy ing life certainly is aw ful business. CaUed Down T he other day this corner, ta lk ing local politics, was adm iring the courage, if not th e judgm ent, of Russell Sherrill, Republican candi­ date for sheriff, and th e lone re. presentatiye o t that party to file as a candidate for county office. W e referred to him as being willing to offer him self, year after year for slaughter — who hasn’t a chance and know s it. Comes now one of our readers who calls us upon the ■ carpet and asks: “ W haddya m eans hasn’t got a chance? Didn’t he carry States ville, even if only by 112 votes; and wouldn’t a change of only 183 votes have made him sheriff iof Iredell country in that election?” In th at o th e r- piece we were speaking in generalitie. W e knew of course that Russell Sherrill had m ade a pow erful good run in 1938 , partly because of w hat alm ost: a- m ounted to a rupture in Democra­ tic ranks, but largely because of his own popularity. B nt we had for gotten how close th at race was, and w e are beholden to our reader friend for straightening us out on it. Sheriff Moore’s m ajority over Russell Sherrill in the 1938 contest was only 364, while th e m ajority of L ester E rvin, who led the De. m ocratic ticket in th at election, was setdow a in the official records as 3.204. ' A nd so it doesn’t require so m nch courage after, all for M r. Sherrill to contend for th at job a- gain, and we are m aking it a point to rub out w hat we said about not adm iring his j dgm ent, otherw ise we m ight be left out on a lim b.— Statesville Daily.

A form er w ent into the local pool hall and found a num ber of ship­ yard workers playing pool on a week­ end holiday, Tbe question arose as to why they were not working, and they told him it was because they could not get doubfotim e pay. The farm er “ blew up” and told them w hat he thought - of such demands in this em ergency.. They seemed surprised and said: “ W hat do you care? It doesn’t cost you anything. The governm ent pays the factories and workers pro­ ducing w artim e equipm ent. No one but the hard-pressed taxpayers, in­ cluding m en and women in every walk of life— even the shipyard workers themselves. Government has no money to pay anybody anything until it first col­ lects from the people. Goyernment is mbreiy an agent of the people. Every bit of w aste by governm ent, industry or labor, comes out of the pockets of the people.

B ut w hat has happened to the pro­ mises of drastic retrenchm ent in non-defense expenditures? A glance a t the record tells th e sorry story. It is a statistical fact' th at not a single significant cat has been m ade in any branch of the governm ent. Tho non-defense bureaus grow big­ ger and fatter. W aste and duplica­ tion of effort continue “ as usual;” Extravagance is still in the saddle. And the people pay. I t is a truism th a t all reekers of office promise "economy” —and that, once elected, tiieir pledges are im . mediately forgotten. I t is np to the citizens of America—the people who pay—to refresh those, short, memori­ es. There is no excuse whatsoever for tha spending o f a single tax dol­ lar for any activity which could be abandoned or deferred. T hat is tru e of local governm ent alike. T hevery solvency o f this country depends upon the greatest possible retrenchm ent in all governm ent functions which arew ot directly re­ lated to the prosecutions which are hot "directly related to the prosecu­ tion of w ar.

TOV LBOUT IT © BCl-U / THE s io b t SO FAB: Joan Leland, secretary, Ib Sove with handsome Karl Miliert night club owner, is horrified and disillusioned* when he shoots his business partner, Erie Strom, and threat* e*s to implicate her unless she continues her work and remains silent. He con* fesses he has a wife In Germany and I* part of a Nazi spy ring. Paul Sher­ man, his manager, reveals to Joan that he really is Paul O'Malley, an FBI •sent, trying to trap the spy*ring higher* ups and Joan agrees to help Ciim. Joan's sister, Sybil, is missing and Paul be* Ueres Karl Is holding her as a hostage. Pat Hines, a new singer for Karl, is really Paul's young roa-away sister, Pa­ tricia, and she Innocently betrays Paul’s Identity to Karl, who captures Paul and Joan as they discover incriminating evidence. He spirits them away on a boat and they find they are in love. A submarine appears to pick up bomber plans stolen by KarL Thomas, a vic­ tim of Karl’s, slips a gun to Joan, who shoots Karl as be is about to shoot PauL They escape in a life boat and land In Mexico. Arthur Mulford, Joan's former employer, offers his plane for a return to the U. S. Now continue with the story. . ^ S y l v i a T a y l o r MMrtMWose, CHAPTER XVH "And you? Don’t you want to go home?” MuIlord asked Joan. “Yes and no. I want to leave— but not without Paul.” “Ah,” Mulford said, “I see. But I will be glad to take all of you. I have my own plane, my own pilot, and I am returning to San Fran­cisco tomorrow. Why not talk it over with him? Surely he can have no objection to your leaving since it will be absolutely safe.” Joan wavered. “I couldn’t go with­ out him. But maybe he would be willing to go with us. He could get aid in the states and return to Mexi­ co and continue the search. I’m not much help to him now, and neither is Thomas. What I really came down here to .fell you, Mr. Mulford, was that what ThoAias told you is Iiie truth. He should have his chance to get out.” “I understand, and I’ll take him of course. But, Joan, I think you Ehould go too. I’m really shocked at this situation. After all, you were in my shop for almost two years. Nat­ urally your welfare concerns me.” She smiled. “That’s nice of you, Mr. Mulford. By the way, what are you doing in Mexico?"“Since the war ruined my busi­ ness and I closed the shop, I’ve been having a vacation. I needed one after dll those years. I worked hard, and it’s good to be away.” Joaq rose. “Can I let you know early in the morning about leaving? I’U have to talk it over with Mr. O’Malley.” “Of course. I do not plan to leave before noon, so take your time.” “You’re not staying at the hotel?” “No. With a friend of mine, Dr. Gomez. I’ll give you his number, or better yet, I’ll phone you here. About ten o’clock, say?”“That will be fine. And thank you very much for everything.” What a lucky break, Joan thought. It all worked out so perfectly. If Mr. Mulford had his own plane, how could Karl possibly check on them? She roused the desk clerk and had him ring Paul’s- room. “Please come down, Paul,” she begged. “I must talk with you.” Thomas came in from the veran­ da. “What do you think?” he asked. “It sounds fine,” Joan agreed. “That man is my former employer. I've known him for years. He’s here on a vacation.” “Then you’ll go, too?”“It certainly seems like a good chance, but I’ll have to talk to PauL In any case, Thomas, Mr. Mulford has promised to take you.” . “Thanks, Miss Leland.” The grat­ itude in his eyes was unmistakable. Paul came down almost immedi­ately. “What’s going, on?” he de­ manded. “The most wonderful thing has happened! Arthur Mulford is here I I used to work for him before I got my job with Karl. He was the man who was trying to locate me through the bartender, also the one I saw on the street today.”They went out to the patio, which was covered by a patchwork of shad­ ows and moonlight. Thomas had gone upstairs and Joan and Paul sat down at one of the rustic tables. “So Arthur Mulford has offered to take you home?”“Yes! How did you know?”“Very simple deduction, darling,” Psul laughed. “I read it in your ggea . . . I suppose Thomas-is at the bottom of ajl this.”“Yes,” Joan admitted. His keen eyes searched her face. ••You want, to go?” •• “Not without you. ! But, Paul, if we all went, it might be better. We could get help and come back . . .” A bird twittered sleepily, and the fragrance of a million, flowers flood­ ed the moonlit' night. Paul- smiled. ••Okay! I’ll go with you.” . It did not occur to Joan that vic­tory had been too easy.The following day at noon they left Mazatlan in Mulford’s plane. It was Joan’s first experience at flying. Once or twice she tried to look out but it made her so dizzy she turned to Paul, saying, “I guess I can’t take it.” . Paul, smiled placidly, much too placidly, Joan decided, eyeing1 him speculatively. This was the first time she had known Paul to give in so easily on any issue. But perhaps Ujve had changed him. She said im­pulsively, 'I know you’re doing this Silently they filed out of the plane and at Mulford’s command en­ tered a waiting automobile, followed by the bewOdered Thomas. for my sake, Paul, and I appreciate it, really I do.” He smiled at her earnestness and said quietly, “You may as well know now.” Joan’s peace of-mind was shat­ tered. “Now what?” Paul leaned closer. “I told you I wanted to track down the rest of Karl’s men to find out who was at the head of this. Remember?” “Yes, of course, but . . “That,” Paul said, "is exactly what I am doing.” “I don’t understand, Paul. What are you talking about?” “You thought I agreed to come with Mulford because you wanted me to, but there is really another reason.” Her face was white. “What are you trying to tell me?” “I carne because we are at last on the trail. We’re being taken straight to the heart of the spy ring.” “You mean that Mr. Mulford.. She could not go on. “Mulford,” Paul said calmly, “is the head of this whole business. I’ve known it ever since I obtained those papers on the ship.” “And you didn’t tell me?”“No. I didn’t want to frighten you.”She leaned weakly back in her seat. “And I thought we were safe! But where are we going, Paul? Do you have any idea?” “I have a very good idea, and if I’m wrong it’s going to be tough on all of us.”“Poor Thomas!” Joan said, look­ ing over her shoulder. “This will be a terrible shock' for him. Mr. Mul­ford, the bead of the spy ring! I can’t believe it!” “It’s true! He’s been working with Karl all the time. His importing shop was only a blind, just as Karl’s Club Elite is. AU the time you worked for Mulford you were really involved. Mulford fired you and re­fused to give you a reference so you would be forced to take any job that came along. The want ad was put in that paper especially for you. Mulford had decided you would be loyal and really transferred you to Karl’s employ. If you hadn’t fallen in love with Karl, you might still not have known what was go­ ing on.” Shocked at the revelation his words brought, Joan sat silently lis­ tening to the roar of the plane as it winged its way to their unknown destination.• • • At last the true picture was un­folded to Joan. Paul had made their situation clear as Mulford’s plane roared on. It seemed incredi­ ble that she could have been so blind'. For almost two. years she had worked for Arthur Mulford, re­ garding him as a kindly but rather tiresome employer. She had had no suspicions that his importer’s shop was a blind, or that the letters she typed day after day were code mes­ sages concerning the subversive ac­tivities of a spy ring. She had won­ dered at her sudden dismissal but even then she had not connected it with the want ad she answered for Karl Miller’s secretary'. How com­ pletely she had fallen into their trap! And as Paul had said, if she had not fallen in love with Karl she probably would not know the truth even now. What a fool Paul must have thought her, watching her’ through those weeks when'she had happily boasted that Karl was going to marry her. How carelessly she had treated Paul’s words of warning, and Sybil’s. Sybil! Her sister’s name struck fear into her heart. Paul had told her that when they arrived at the,end of their journey, he hoped to. find Sybil. If they would only fliid her alive! And what about Pa­ tricia? It was night when the plane land­ed, and forewarned by Paul, Joan was not surprised to see Arthur Mul­ ford confronting them with a gun and saying, “All right now, ,keep your'hands up.” Silently they filed out of the plane and at Mulford’s command entered a waiting automobile, followed, by the bewildered Thomas. “What’s it all about,' Mr. t O’Mal­ ley?" he begged. “Where are we?” “Another of Karl’s tricks,” Paul explained in an undertone. “I thinfc we’re somewhere in New Mexico or possibly Arizona.” The moonlit night showed them lit­ tle as they drove along the rough country road. Barren waste land stretched on all sides. “You mean this guy is one of Karl’s men?” Thomas whispered. “Just Karl’s boss,” Paul said wry* Iy-Thomas, for once, was stunned into silence. In a short time they arrived at a ranch house. It was the first dwelling of any kind, they bad seen since landing. Behind the large house was a smaller one and into' this Paul, Joan and Thomas, were led. The house was modern though crudely finished. There was a fire­ place and electric lighting. Several rooms led into the living room but none of the three was inclined to venture from the fire. “Well,” Thomas said, “I guess this is all my fault. I thought Mul­ ford'was on the level:- I didn’t know he was connected with Karl. Hon­ estly.” “We know that, Thomas. It’s all right It had to be this way. I’v» suspected for some time that Mul­ ford was the chief of this outfit.” Joan sat down in an old wicker rocker and drew it closer to the blaze. “And how what do we do?” “This ranch is a clearing house. Stolen plans that are not taken from San Francisco .by boat are flown here and from here to Mexico where they are picked up off the coast by fishing boats.” Thomas rubbed his hands togeth­ er nervously. “But why did they want us. to come here? Why would they have bothered?” “That,” Paul admitted, “remains to be seen.” “They must think they have some use for us," Joan argued, “or they wouldn't have gone to so much trou­ble.” The wind whistled outside. The silence of the night held the peculiar loneliness that belongs to the desert. Joan was so deep in her own thoughts that the sound of ‘ foot-' steps startled her and she' leaped from her place by the fire. ' - The door opened to admit Karl Miller. His arm was in' a sling. “You didn’t quite finish me,” he said smoothly. “Your aim is really very bad.” “What a pity,” Paul murmured. Karl turned his cold blue eyes upon him. “You have caused us a great deal of trouble, Mr. O’Mal­ley. I believe the time has come now for you to be of use to us.”Paul had risen and the two men stood facing each other. Karl said quietly, “Again I offer you the chance to’come in- with us. You could be a valuable asset.” Silence. Contempt was written on Paul’s face. “If you refuse to give us your services,” Karl said, “Joan will have to pay for it.” He walked over and took her arm, twisting it until she cried out with pain. Paul took a step, forward but Arthur Mulford, who had been watching from the door, leaped forward with a. gun in his hand.Although Karl still held'her arm, which throbbed with pain, Joan cried, “Don’t pay any attention to him, Paul, Tm not afraid!” Karl said, “Perhaps you are not afraid for yourself but Uiere is still your sister to consider. “Sybil! Where is she?" “At the moment, she is safe. If you can persuade Paul to see this situation my way, she will contin­ ue to be safe. If not . . He shrugged. Karl. looked at.. O’Malley= and smiled. “I believe you will find that you and your government are playing a losing game: Of course. Mr. O’Malley, in our country 'a- man does not let sentimentality interfere with his job. It is unfortunate that you are not constituted: the same way—unfortunate for you, and ex­ tremely lucky for us. I am sure that, being so fond of Joan, you would- rather betray your country than , permit her to suffer.” He exchanged glances with Mui ford, and they both' left the. house; .: ‘.‘I told you!” Thomas cried “They’re devils!” ... “If I can stall them off for a few days . . .” Paul was faying in r low guarded tone.

(Released by Western Newspaper UnionJ Lesson for ltaay 24 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se­lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. - THURSDAY: THE LAST DAT WITH THE DISCIPLES LESSON TEXT-Luke 22:14-30.GOLDEN TEXT—This do in remembrance ot me.—Luke 22: la. The last day! How quickly it comes, and how.fieeting yet. mean­ ingful its moments. We do not know what our Lord did on Wednesday of Passion Week. In all probability, He remained in Bethany, to.rest in fellowship with His friends. Surely He needed that day of quiet, for that which had gone before, difficult and strenuous as it had been, was „ as nothing to that which lay before Him. Late on Thursday He and His dis­ ciples came to the upper room where Peter and John had already made preparation for the observ­ ance of the Passover (Luke 22:8). This feast had (since that great and awful night of Israel’s redemption out of Egypt’s bondage) pointed for­ ward to the Christ and to His cross as the fulfillment of the type of re­ demption by the shedding of blood. But now the hour had come for Him to give Himself in that death, and so He set aside the Passover (because it has been fulfilled) to establish the great Christian feast of remerri- brance—the Lord’s table, which now shows forth His death till He come. I. The FinalvPassover (vv. 14-18). Our Lord, looked forward with in­tense, desire to the Passover which He now observed With His ^isciples, for it was the last celebration of that feast recognized by God. AU that it had foreshadowed of deliv­erance and hope-was fulfilled in Him who now sat at the table. He had moved forward with resolute pur­ pose to this day when His mission on earth was to be accompUshed, vand He was to become the Chris­ tian’s Passover lamb (I Cor. 5:7). The fact that He had looked for­ward to it with desire does not mini­ mize the deep 4arkness of either GethSemane or Calvary. Remem­ ber that, when in the' garden He faced that hour and thought of the possibiUty of the cup being taken from Him, He said to the Father, “Not what I will, but what thou wUt.” Praying concerning the same matter (in John 12:27), He said, “Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this.hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.” . II. The First Commnnion (w. 19, 20). Taking the unleavened bread and the unfermented wine of the Pass- over which had. just been observed, Jesus established a new feast, the Christian feast of remembrance, which we caU communion or' the Lord’s table. ________________leant, “For as oft] " 2H twe SE W IN O CIRCLE 1 5 7 0 0 T^ON'T you find it Am to-make ^ your daughter’s play clothes in cunning styles and pretty cot­ tons?

American housewives are doing without sugar so that the Ameri. can boozer can get his booze. This Is another account that some one will have to settle. The nearer the blackberry crop comes, the scarcer the sugar. Who would have ever thought the time would come when we couldn’t get enough sugar to sweeten a black, berry pie? If Henry Wallace hadn’t had six million pigs slain it is likely that we could buy meat mach cheaper today than the price we are Daying —from 35 cents per pound for breakfast bacon to 70 cents per pound for country ham.

Davie Republicans have but one contest, that of Solicitor. Hon. A. E. Hall, the present Solicitor, has opposition in the person of P. D B. Harding, also of Yadkinville. Mr. Hall has held this office for the past four years, and has made hund­ reds of friends throughout the dis­ trict, which is composed of Davie, Yadkin, Wilkes, Mitchell and Avery counties. From what we can understand. Mr. Hall will no donbt be renominated by a big ma­ jority in May primary. Suppose everyoody quit buying clothing, shoes, hats, furniture, etc., for the duration. Whatwould become of the men and women who work in the mills, shops and fac. tories that produce these articles?

An Unusual Sight We saw an unusual ,sight in Mocksville Thursday morning. An old-fashioned ■ two-hose covered wagon, drawn by two mules, roll­ ed across the public square. Just where the wagon came from, and where it was going, we didn’t find out. Some ,thirty or more years ago it wasn’t unusual to see a doz­ en or more of these wagons in town every day, but in these days of fast transportation, they present a strange sight. We are liable to see many strange things before this se­ cond world war comes to a close.

PARTON (Consolidated Features—'WNO Service.) NEW YORK.—It Win come hard to think of Gen. James H. Doo­little as the Jimmy Doolittle who used to be the bantamweight boxing — „ „ champ of theTop Boxer, Racer, p acii£ coast. Atr Stanter— He’s But there’s NowCen.Doolittle The^rfewf^r elevated general, nominated by President Roosevelt, is none other than the weather-beaten, tanned, wrinkled, rumpled, bandy-legged roughhouse fighter and flier of a few years back. He has grown gray in the air, and much of his hair has been wafted out into the wind- stream, since the days when he first became known as a speed demon. He won’t be long in opening up his own fighting front, somewhere, somehqw-r-judging by the way he did the same in a boxing match in which we once saw him. His father, a carpenter and prospector of Alameda, CaUf., took his family to Alaska and there yonng James bucked bliz­ zards, mnshed with sourdoughs and got generally case-hardened for his latter adventurous career. Back in the States, he enlisted in Uie army air service. Outside loops were to him just like skipping the rope and he quickly be­came file army’s crack stunt-flier and racing pilot, instructing rookies at San Diego. He studied at the army’s technical school at Dayton, Ohio, and later enrolled at the Mas­sachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1925, he won the Schneider . cup for the army, hitting a speed of 232 miles per hour. These exploits of his daredevil years qualified him for some hair- raising adventures in demon­ strating American planes to foreign governments. In 1928, showing off lighting planes in Chile, he fell from a window ledge and broke both ankles. The next day, when a competing German pilot went aloft to give his plane a sales workout, Doo- IitUe had himself lifted into the cockpit of his plane, with his broken ankles Ued to a rudder bar. Then by clever and hazard­ous maneuvering he forced his rival to the ground, and tore off a few snap-rolls around the taU peaks of Uie Andes. His stunt brought to the Curtiss company one of the largest contracts ever awarded to an American com­pany. •---- IJARNEY OLDFIELD, the auto- mobile racing driver, pulled up in a race to change a tire. There was a bit of bungling on the job. Esprit-TheThing That Slams Out spoke up: n . • “MeesterPters tn Jtg Time oidfield what zis crew needs is esprit.” “Go out and buy one!” bellowed Barney. “We gotta win this race.” It’s like, that in war. We can’t buy the* “esprit,” although we are fanning up quite a lot of it. Some­ how we’ve got to get the teamwork. In the meantime, there is observ­ able in these parts a serial dem­onstration of fast double-play team­ work between management and la­ bor, which is heartening. We cite the George Rogers Con­ struction Co., demon pier-builders, who recently finished a-700-foot pier and shipway in 43 working days— 25 days, or more than 30. per cent, faster than any previous record for a job of this type. This company has been slamming out similar piers since 1869. Itiscruciallyimportant war work, as on these piers, fighting ships are repaired or remodeled. There’s no involved incentive plan for employees. The work­ers , are old-line shipbuilders who know what they'are build­ing for. George W. Rogers, grandson of the founder of the firm, and now its head, says of his workers: “At mass meet- Ings of the various shifts on the job the men themselves have helped provide the driving force required to maintain the record- . breaking schedule.’’. Mr. Rogers studied engineering at Cornell university, with no intention of ever being a “dock-walloper,” as he calls his occupation. He went to Cornell and won his letters in bas­ ketball, football and track. When his father died, he took up the family, business. In the last war, he served in the navy as a deck officer on a battle­ ship, and did convoy duty and saw action with submarines. With the outbreak of this war he tried to get back in the navy, but -they offered him three stripes and a desk and he decided he would be more-nseful in kicking out piers in a hurry—which is an old family custom. He lives in Forest Hills, and has two daugh­ ters, one 19 years of age and the other 21. They are studying in one of-the defense projects, learning to be motor mechanics, dismounting and assembling engines. U. S.

SI There Is a threatened shortage of farm labor this year. In upstate New York alone 25,000 men and boys are needed this summer, and some 7,000 boys from city high schools have enrolled for farm training. Many of-these are being trained at the State Institute of Agriculture in Farmingdale, L. I. At the left you see students at work in the dairy section of the institute. Right: Some of the students who are taking a course in farming. Herring Army to Satisfy Army Appetites I i . . . . - . i f * - * . ; . . f j * . Every year millions of herring have swarmed up the Taunton river to spawn at the headwaters near Middleboro, Mass., and have been caught by Indian traps and white men’s nets. This year, the U.

By VIRGINIA VALE WARNER Brothers’ “Heroes Without Uniforms,” a story of the American Merchant Ma­ rine, will be the first of a group of films telling us things that the government wants us to know. Lowell Mellet, co-ordinator of government films, recently sub­ mitted to industry leaders a list of 30 topics about which the gov­ ernment wishes the public to be in­ formed. Originally it was planned to use his ideas as material for short subjects, but it now seems likely that some of them, at least, will be developed into feature-length pic­ tures.— *— “Parachute Nurse” has what might be tirmed an All-Starlet cast, virtually an all-feminine one. When Charles Barton, the director, count­ ed noses he found Marguerite Chap­ man, Shirley Patterson, Alma Car­ roll, and eight other beauty-contest winners.— *— Now it’s Priscilla Lane who’s hav­ing to learn card tricks. Jan Grippo, who tutored Veronica Lake for her PRISCILLA LANE sleight-of-hand role in “This Gun for Hire” is doing the same for Pris­ cilla, for “SilVer Queen,” in which she plays opposite George Brent. Three of the cast of Columbia’s “The Invaders” have signed rather unusual contracts. Glynis Johns, Eric Portman and Anton Walbrook have agreed to appear in Hollywood within three months after the war is aided: won’t leave England till then. When you see Paramoupt’s “Wake Island” you’ll see a setting that’s absolutely authentic. The contract­ ing firm which made the actual de­fense installations for the Wake Is­ land marine garrison before the Jap­anese attack is in charge of con­struction at the Salton Sea location for the picture. It is recreating on the shores of the California island sea an exact duplication of the Pacific atoll establishment.: John Farrow is directing “Wake Island,” with a cast including Brian Doiilevy, Robert Preston, Albert Dekker and Bar­ bara Britton. “Crossroads,” the Hedy Lamarr- William Powell picture, brought up a slight dilemma at Metro, , Powell, Basil Rathbone aiid-Felix Bressart all had mustaches; , and all were loath to part with them—but three was just too many for one film. Powell is a suave diplomat in the picture, Rathbone felt that a villain must have a mustache. Bressart couldn’t bear to part with his. You’ll have to see the picture to find out who lost out. That’s Ginger Rogers’ mother ,whom you’ll see as Ginger Rogers’ mother In “The Major and the Mi­nor”; she’ll be making her screen debut.. She had been ■'a drama edi­tor and a dramatic coach, she’s been in charge of the younger players at RKO and this past year die’s been installing a dairy at Ginger’s 1,100-acre ranch in Oregon—but nev­er before has she been an actress., — *— The famous musicians of the fu­ture may find themselves forming a “Those Who Were Helped by Ma­jor . Bowes” association. - For in­ stance, take the Aquaviva brothers. Anthony, 17, a clarinetist, recently on the Major’s program, said that if he won a prize he’d help his young­er brother, Nicholas, to get the kind of tutoring he: was getting. An­thony won $100, ,second prize. The Major suggested that he have Nich­olas audition for the program; Nich­ olas, 14, won first prize. ..So Ma­jor Bowes, with the help of every­ body who voted'for the lads, helped them along.

(TELL TOV LEOVT IT THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N.-C. Smartly Tailored W oolknits Are Ideal for All-Day Wear By CHERIE NICHOLAS AS EVERY woman knows, now that our country is in an out- and-out war, there are busy days ahead for, all. One of the reactions brought about by the present war condition is the developing of a new psychology in dress which car­ries an urge to choose clothes that are simple and goodlooking at tfte same time that they underwrite a guarantee of dependable wearabil­ ity.For a perfect answer to the prob­ lem, let your quest lead you into the realm of woolknitted apparel, and you will be elated with what you will see in the way of smart clothes to victoriously keep you looking spic- and-span, fashion right and attrac­ tive through every hour of each busy day. Gay deceivers they are, these new knitted suits. You’d never dream they were machine knitted until you test the “feel” of them as well as the “look." At first glance many a stunning woolknit looks as if it might be tailored of tweed or other material, for modern woolknits have a fabric-like appearance which is simply baffling. They glory in the fact that they sag not (neither do they stretch), and they are non­wrinkling. To which add a styling that embodies all the intriguing de­tails of expert tailoring. Whidi is the same as telling you that a mod­ern knit suit has everything that makes for a victory clothes program for patriotic women. Representative groups of woolknit fashions are made up, to a large ex­tent, of just such eye-appealing suits as the three shown in the above il­ lustration. A closeup study of the woolknit suit to the right reveals highly significant details such as, for instance, the skirt which is a new achievement in machine knit­ ting. It is full-fashioned just like a handknitted garment and conse­ quently won’t sag, stretch or spring. The jacket is softly styled with a Tibbed waistband that lends the ex­ clusive look of being hand done. The original model is in melon pink en­ hanced with plastic flower buttons. The sailor, by Sally Victor, is in a sheer lacy woolknit fabric. Here is a perfect outfit for town and coun­ try wear now that the major trend is toward bright hues for suits. In navy, so extremely important this year, this woolknit suit and hat will fit perfectly into ihe program of a busy woman. Dress and jacket ensembles that look like suits but, without the jack­et, give you a charming little frock for many an occasion are topnotch favorites this season. See illustrat­ ed to the' left in the above picture a citrus green dress-and-jacket two- piece ensemble done in woolknit with a fine cord stitch, With red ar­ rows and pipings for smart accent. With its jacket it has every appear­ ance of a suit and gives you the tailored look you want tea general practical wear. When tnat short- notice invitation to afternoon bridge or tea comes unexpectedly this little knitted frock without the jacket will happily meet the occasion. Its simulated pleated skirt is an achievement in woolknit technique in that it is full fashioned. It can't and won’t sag, and the miracle of it is you can’t tell it from handknit. The hat by Jeanne Tete. is made of matching citrus green woolknit fab­ric. It’s very smart nowadays for hats and accessories to be made of the same print or the same fab­ ric as dress, blouse or jacket. The big envelope bag is especially de­signed of< matching woolknit green fabric with a border of bright red. Quite “dress-up” is the lightweight Woolknit tunic dress centered in the above group. Harlequin dots em­broidered in red, green, brown and yellow are appliqued on the tunic top. Machine knitted to simulate hand knitting, it is gay in bright green. The scarf hat is a wool jer­ sey draped turban with a clipped wool yarn border and top twist.(Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Red Coat There has been a record-breaking call for red coats this season and, demand is still going strong« The attractive all-purpose coat pic­tured above is made of bright red woolknit tricot-cord fabric in coating weight. Both in material and in styling it is outstanding. The bloused, r^glan sleeves which tie at the wrists and the casual swing of this c°at, which is deftly tied at the neck, make it wonderful to wear oyer sports, daytime or evening clothes-. Red have become- such a sensation that “the little red coat” may - join • “the little black dress” as a favored tradition* Cotton Hats Match Slacks or Dresses Milliners are fashioning cunning hats of gingham, seersucker, pique, flowery chintz and quilted calico. They are a fitting complement to slacks and culotte outfits. Bi fact, some _of them : are so smartly styled into little sailors and brim effects that they seem to be made especially for the new print suits and black cotton dresses. When you have a piece of dress goods left over, go into conference with your milliner. She can make a highly fashionable chapeau, matched to the dress with which it is to be worn. This matter of making the hat of the identical material of the dress or blouse with which it is to be worn offers an intriguing program. Par­ticularly smart are hat and neck- wear sets made of - taffeta silk. The little sailor type is stunning done in taffeta. Tie a huge bow of the taffeta to pose at the neck, of your blouse or to wear with your smart new coat or suit. i Another Veaiation on Cotton Theme Is Lace In 9tn»fring of the practicality of cotton weaves for summer wear, it is encouraging to know that a series of cotton laces have been produced that can be depended upon to wear perfectly. These come In the loveliest pas­ tels and also in navy. Made up into Metfy daytime frocks they answr the- demand for' a dress that looks charming but has a sturdmess back of it that takes it into the class of assured dependable wearability. (Released by Westeni Newspaper Unioa.! She Gave Americans the Memorial Poppy FOR the first time in a quarter of a 1 century, Memorial day this year finds the United States at war. On that day, May 30, millions of Amer­ icans will be wearing a red poppy in memory of the men who gave their lives for their country. Most of those who wear them will be hon­oring sons or brothers or friends who perished during World War I, for out of that' conflict grew liie memorial poppy idea.But to others this custom has a more poignant significance this year. For the blood-red flower they are wearing is symbolical of the blood shed by an American boy to whom they said good-by only a few months ago—a boy who died at Pearl Har­bor or on the Bataan peninsula or in the Java sea or the Pacific or Atlantic oceans.How did the custom of wearing the red poppy on Memorial day orig­ inate? Visit the quiet little univer­ sity town of Athens, Ga., and as you walk along its shady streets you may meet a sweet-faced, gray-haired, soft-spoken Southern woman whom the citizens of Athens know as “Miss Moina” but whom millions of World War I veterans call “The 'Poppy Lady.”. Foritwas MoinaMichaelwho had the inspiration for this tribute to America’s fighting men and w(ho made the red poppy the symbol of their valor and their sacrifice. The story of that inspiration and the growth of the idea is told in a book published recently by Dorrance and Company of Philadelphia—“Th* MOlNA MICHAEL Miracle Flower,” written by “The Poppy Lady” herself. In 1918 Miss Michael, then a teacher in th£ nor­ mal school of the University of Georgia, .entered training at Colum­bia university for overseas service' with theY.M.C.A. OntheSaturday morning before the Armistice a young soldier, visiting the hostess house maintained in the building where the Overseas Y.M.C.A. War Secre­ taries had their headquarters, laid on Miss Michael’s desk a copy of a woman’s magazine.During a.spare moment she looked through the magazine and a strik­ ingly colored picture caught her eye. It was the illustration for a reprint of Col. John McCrae’s famous poem, “In Flanders Fields.” As -She read the poem, she found herself read­ ing again and again the last stanza.In a moment ot sudden inspira­ tion, Miss Michad seized a used yellow envelope and scribbled on it a poem “We Shall Keep the Faith.” At that moment she also took a pledge to herself always to wear a" red poppy as a sign of remembrance. That day a committee from the 25th conference of Y.M.C.A., War Secretaries, then in session, brought her a check for $10 in apprecia­tion of her efforts to make a home­ like hostess house of their headquar­ ters. She told them of the pledge that she had just taken and that she intended to spend, the money for red poppies to wear in honor of the men who had died “in Flanders Fields.” Impressed with the idea, this com­mittee reported it to the conference and soon afterwards many of the secretaries began asking Miss Michael where they could get pop­ pies to wear. That afternoon she went on a shopping trip and returned with two dozen small silk red pop­ pies which she gave them. ' Subsequently other conferences adopted the red poppy as the'em­ blem of the Overseais Y.M.C.A. Workers, to be worn in honor of the soldiers who had perished in the war, and through the efforts of Miss Michael many other organizations gave their support to the idea. In 1920 the American Iiegion at its na­ tional convention in Cleveland adopt­ed the Flanders. Field Memorial Poppy, tfie Iiegion Auxiliary did like­ wise in Kansas City in 1921, as did the Veterans of Foreign Wars the next year. >• From America, the memorial pop­ py idea spread to England and many other foreign countries where, as in the United Spates, these little red . silk flowers are ,made by the maimed, gassed and wounded men of World War I who haive no other source of income. It is estimated that Ihe profits from their sale totals more.than $7,000,000 in all the coun­ tries where they are sold , and eiyeiy penny of this goes to the aid oif dis­abled veterans and their needy de­ pendents. In more ways than one Miss ' Michael’s , red poppy is a “Miracle Flower.” , Broiled Lamb Chops Keep Your Kitchen Comfortably Cool ■ (See Recipes Below) * - Kitchen Comfort Spring Fever? Are the warm lazy days working havoc with your de­ sire to cook, to work in the kitch­en? Then dispel these lagging.feel- ings with quick­ ly put - together meals, that cut down .your work to a minimum and the use of your oven to- practi­cally nothing. U This is the season 'to make the mo^t of your broiler and meats- that are 'at their best when broiled. Broil­ er specialties are lamb chops (both shoulder and ioin), steaks, thick harai slices, and young chickens. If you] heat your., oven very hot- and also the pan in which you are broil­ ing your meat before you put the meat into the oven, you will ac­ tually be cutting down the time you have your oven on. In this way you are way ahead on economy of heat and also in keeping your kitchen comfortably cool. To cut down the time you spend in actual cooking, select foods Oiat cook quickly or that'can be cooked and served together. Our menu to­ day is a good example of this: the lamb chops broil quickly and the lima beans brought to a boil and cooked quickly take only as much time as the Iamb chops to cook un­til tender. Serve them on'the same platter, too—they’re pretty that way and you will have fewer serving dishes to wash. IheBefrtgerater.Your appreciation for your refrig­ erator or icebox undoubtedly zooms upward quite fast with the first ap­pearance of warmer weather. In­ deed, what could you possibly do without refrigeration that keeps fruits, vegetables, leftovers, meats, milk, butter, eggs and countless ott­er. products in - perfect condition? In what other place could you possibly store away the salad to keep crisp and cool said the delectable desserts that must remain firih before serving? Those reasons are enough' to make you keep your refrigerator in the best ot condition, but the recent lim­itation on making and selling re- . frigerators will certainly give you further reason' to cherish it with the best possible care. . Keep the refrigerator away from the sun'that comes into the kitchen. Keep it away from the stove, too, and give it enough space for good circulation of air at the back and top. Most refrigerators need a Vh- inch leeway at the back and 6 to 12 inches at the top. Temperatures are important, so check them with a thermometer. Safest temperature is between 40 ^and 45 degrees Fahrenheit.Cool hot foods before putting them into the refrigerator. Cover ^foods except those having thick \ skins. Moisture from uncovered {foods collects on the freezing, unit . and you will have to.defrost oftener. j Your refrigerator has a big job ■ in keeping everything cool, as every i piece of food requires just so much energy to cool. For this reason you Ishould not overcrowd your refrig- i erator or stuff it full with bags, car- tons and vegetable tops that also •need energy to be cooled.J Defrosting. ' Once a week or oftener in the LynnSays: Keep your ’kitcheni well, venti­ lated and you will 'drive away much of the feeling of fatigue that comes while you cook. Warm air usually rises so it'is better to keep the. windows open from the top to create better ventilation and avoid drafts. . Place an electric' fan right' above the stove so that it fans the warm air right out ; the win­dows; or combine a fan with a screen placed in the upper sash of one of -the windows: and adjust, to fan the air in or out the room.In some kitchens it is practica­ble to place a fan in the chimney flue' provided'for that purpose.

' Indifference to one’s soul, indif­ ference to tbe souls of others, I**- !difference to the church and Sun: day school, lndifferenceto the right and the truth, indifference toward taie wrong and indifferencs in be­ half of God’s cause and kingdom, [cerrainly has a very blighting ef- t. It seems that many people have in idea that it doesn.t make much Iifference if they are indifferent In igard to right or wrong. . That :hey can stand somewhat neutral ind be all right. This is a serious iistake- Jesus said, “He that is not with me is against me: and he [that gathereth not with me scatter* :th.” Thlsprovesto us that we :an’t be “on the fence*’ in life and, be right, In other words, we can’t |be neither for Christ or against Him and be right; that we can’t stand neither for right nor wroug; that we go between and please God and get to heaven. Multitudes of people are absolu­ tely Indifferent toward the good, many of whom seem likewise in­ different toward the bad. It seems that they simply don’t care. They let the cause of right and righteous* ness suffer in their midst for the lack of their moral, spiritual and financial support, and they let the cause of sin and wickedness .flour­ ish around tfiem because they take no stand against it. They are care­ less and unconcerned. This is a poor way of living. It nevjr makes for one’s success, uplift and right eousness, neither does it make for the uplift, success and righteous­ ness of others. Indifference toward ^either the'right or wrong, or both, certainly never makes one good and great. It never blesses a country, a state, a nation. It never makes one noble and good. We believe it ishighly displeasing to Almigh­ ty God. ; We find people everywhere who aie living indifferent lives, especi­ ally when it comes to taking a defi. |nite stand against sin and wicked­ ness and for God and righ eousness. One of the main reassns why the cause of' God is suffering so much today, and sin and wickedness is so .powerful and terrible, is the fact that we have vast multitudes who are so indifferent. They don’t seem Ito care whether the right is on the [throne or the wrong; whether truth ourishes or error; whether the :hurch rises or falls; whether the Iunday school and prayer meeting ives or dies; whether we have a so­ ber country and nation, or a drun­ ken country and nation. They are isimply indifferent. One of the main reasons why our !country and nation is flooded with liquor today is through and by tbe indifference of multitudes of peo­ ple. They were too indifferent to take their stand against liquor and Iall liquor forces; too indifferent to go to the polls and vote against the cursed stuff; too indifferent to show their colors. Again, another reas­ on why there is so much revelry,; [carousal and debauchery through­ out the land on accouct of drunken' ness, and on account of the flood of corrupt literature that is overwhel­ ming cur youth, and tbe cursed pictures they behold in the mov­ ies, and the many evils that are de­ stroying the morality and spiritual­ ity of the nation and the earthy is because tens of thousands of church members and so-called Christians are utterly indifferent toward all [such. Multitudes of them indulge in these evils themselves. They [blight the cause of right and right iusness, which they are supposed |to sustain and uphold by their lives, means and influence, and give them. Ives over to the forces of sin and An Awfol Law The Window Seat Weekly, edi- ted by ex-COngressman Janieson, who is considered an acurate ob­ server of events in Washington, takes note of the proposal In Con gress to adopt the sales tax as t means of getting a big slice of mon­ ey with which to prosecute the war and makes the following appraisal of this source of revenue: Friends, I think this is an awful law. 1. It hits the poor people the hardest. v 2. It raises living costs, the very thing we're tearing our gov­ ernment shirts to prevent- even the President’s shirt. 3. We’re dragging money away by force from the very class of people we ought to urge—maybe compel—to buy war bonds as a cushion for the war-end rainy day. There are cowardly reasons for this tax, but I don’t know any good ones, except it is the easiest tax to pay because your money is sneaked away from you under cov­ er when you don’t think about it. But it is sneaked away . just the same. ^ Just about everybody and his brother will agree to that analysis of tbe general sales tax—even those who would employ it regardless. But jvst as surely as they are con­ founded In searching for argument to justify it, others, who despise it thoroughly are confounded when asked “where you gonna get .the money to replace the sales tax.” The other day the Charlotte News was calling the sales tax names Arhich were about as odious as Jamieson’s, but it too. bumped into the perplexity of some other source of revenue. IMd it ever oc­ cur to anybody to examine the field from which the tax harvests came before the sales tax w b s invent, ed? We managed somehow, to- get along, by measuring the cloth be­ fore cutting the garment. The<e is no use arguing against the sales tax as a revenue producer here, in North Carolina. We have not only become calloused to; it, but one of our Democratic leaders has been frank enough to tell Us that it is here to stay. But when the federal government invades the sales tax field and doubles the take you can put it down In your little day book that something is going to pop. Fifteen dollars-a-week wage earners can’t buy War Bonds and Savings Stamps when they’ve, got nothing to buy with.—Statesville Dally. “Read ’Em and Reap’* O U R A D c and wickedness. However, one of the hardest things we have to contend with to­ day, and one of the very hardest problems to solve, is indifference. It confronts us wherever we go. It blights the lives of individuals, blights home life, blights the spiri: tual life of our churches, and lets the devil just about have fuU sway over the vast majority of mankind. O, indifference, indifference. We can preach and preach, and warn tbe people with all fervency and sincerity of heart and soul, and they treat it with indifference. We can tell them it is repent or go to bell, but th?y treat it with indiffer­ ence. We can teU them it is re­ pent, be bora again, live for and serve God, or miss heaven and e- ternal life, but they pass it by as an idle tale that is told and treat it with cold, lifeless, heartless indiff­ erence. 0, indifference, indiffer­ ence, how blighting, how cursed, how hard to deal ,with, what a problem on our hands. God help us. Amen. Can You Answer The Old Codger, much given to putting hard questions to Editor Josephus Daniels, of the Raleigh News and Observer, puts this one in his peculiar lingo: “If they air a-cuttin’ down on coffee who don’t they cut down on the rectified es­ sence of damnation what the - ABC stores air a-selling’ ?” says the Christian Advocate. lYe editors could not give any good reason why sugar and coffee and rubber and other things are cut down and there is no reduction In the alcoholic drinks.

Durham didn’t stop Monday of last week at. registering in the re* gistration of men from 44 to After registering he went directly to tbe draft board office in North Wilkesboro and offered himself for enlistment. Ask if he wanted to enlist in the armed forces, he said: "Yes, or anywhere else the nation needs me I’ll fight or work. It doesn’t make any difference to me.” . The .draft beard officials explained that they could not enlist a man of his age and referred him to the arm recruiting station in Charlotte.

Fiam The YeOow Jadat Speaking ot, the New Dealer’s friend, Repeal Licker, we wish to say that as an industry the old Boy hasn’t a leg to stand on If manu­ facturers can by war priorities be stopped from making useful and needful commodities, why can’t the makers of Liken be stopped from making this useless and dangerous commodity? Not every married man you bear talking to himself is doped, drunk, or delirious or down with old age. Probably his wife is one . of - those high society sisters who never per­ mit him to get in a word when home, so he’s'just practicing while alone to keep from forgetting how to talk. A flying soldier was told that he would have to remove a copy of Shakespeare from his baggage be­ cause it took up space needed to carry war ammunition. In other words, it’s now bullets instead of ballads. Thiscalamity howler.

Why not take alt the Tapanese In this country and put them to work building the military road to Alas­ ka? Nothing could be more ap­ propriate. It would be lots better than to keep them in concentration camps. As election day approaches keep In mind tbe fact that this country was equipped to produce more su gar than it consumed, and that it was tbe New Dealen who cut our production quota down to 29 per cent of consumption. And then cast your vote accordingly.

C. ©BEU.. ^ S y l v i a T a y l q r WMMMkkm; THE STORT SO FAR: I d love with her employer, KarI Miller, night clnb owner, Joan Leland, secretary, Is horrl* fled and disillusioned when he shoots his . partner, Eric Strom, and threatens to implicate her unless she remains silent and continues her work. He confesses he has a wife in Germany and is a member of a Nazi spy ring. Paul Sherman, his manager, reveals to Joan, he is really Paul O'Malley, FBI agent. Joan's sister, Sybil, is missing, and she agrees to help Paul secretly. Paul's sister, Patricia, In* nocently betrays his identity and Joan and Paul are imprisoned on a boat as Hiey discover Karl's stolen bomber plans. They find love in each other as a sub** marine appears. Karl tries to murder Paul and Joan shoots him. They es­cape with ^iomas, another victim of Karl's, to Mexico, where Joan meets Ar* thnr Mulford, a previous employer, who offers to fly them to the U. S. and safety.. He Is recognized by Paul as the real head Cf the espionage system but re­mains silent, hoping to be led to the main hideout of the gang. Mulford flies them to a ranch. The wounded Miller is there. Karl wants Paul to Join the spy ring.Now continue with the story. CHAPTER XVIII “I can’t bear having anything hap­pen to Sybil,” said Joan. “How do you think I feel?” Paul answered. His face was grim. “Oh, darling, don’t blame your­ self,” Joan comforted, taking his hand. .“We’ll think of some way out.”"Karl’s clever," Thomas remind­ ed them. “He always wins in the end.”“But he can’t go on like this,” Joan insisted. "As Paul, has told, xis, even Karl must make a mistake sooner or later.” “Why don’t you do it Karl’s way, Mt. O’Malley?” Thomas urged “After all, what else can you do?” For a moment Paul looked as though he would strike him and then, sinking into a chair, he groaned. “There are some things you don’t understand.”"I understand!” Joan cried. “You mustn’t consider me, Paul, You must do what you feel is right. I became involved with Karl through my own volition. It was no fault of yours. And I don’t want you to feel responsible.” “But I love you,” Paul said quiet­ly.- “You do believe that, - don’t you?”“Of cornse I .do, darling.” Thomas retired to one of the bed­rooms so that they were alone now. “I didn’t expect Karl to arrive so soon,” Paul said. “Ive got to play for more time. If I can do that without making Mulford suspi­cious, my plans may come out all right.” “AU right? Oh, Paul, then you do have a plan?” “Of course I have, honey. You don’t think I’d walk into a trap like this without planning some way out of it, do you?” •“Then what are you worrying about?” “It’s the time element,” Paul ex­plained. . “By the way, how did Karl get here anyway?” Joan asked curious­ ly.“Probably landed up the coast and flew.”“I have a hunch everything’s go­ ing to be all right,” Joan comfort­ed, and Paul, kissing her tenderly, wondered at the supreme confidence of a woman in love. It was true he had made arrangements before he left the ship for a message to get through to his superiors, but Joan knew nothing about that. The message would not be received, until tomorrow, which meant that help could not come until the fol­ lowing day. How long could he stall Karl and Mulford? If they suspected anything; they would make him, pay through Joan, his only vulnera­ble point. “She’s so brave,” he' thought, I: holding her close. But she didn’t Hj, realize the horrors that might be in jfe. store for her. She had a childish sSifi faith in him that wrung his heart. TOiat if he should fail her after all? 'Si* What if the message didn’t get ^pithrough? If flying conditions were jMiibad, that would mean another de- |ggg|lay. And each moment she was in iifdanger-she and Sybil. Even Thom- Jgffpas would pay if his plan went wrong, gfferhree lives depended upon his judg- SfflSabawit. 1 iSmi “What are you thinking about, gjjftarling?” Joan asked, g; Holding her-closer, as though she ' ere something very precious, Paul eplied, “I was thinking that I love t now—more than I ever have be- The next day dawned bright and :ld. Joan, Paul and Thomas wait- i in the living room. Paul was star- , Jng out at the other house. #i “I’d like to know what’s going on Stiver there,” he said. “Probably just as well you don’t know,” Thomas told him as he ,spread out a deck of soiled cards on flte table.Joan went to Paul’s side, said, “Don’t worry, darling. You said last night that you had a plan.” ' The cards fell from Thomas' hands. “A plan? Why didn’t you tell me? What is it?" Paul frowned and Joan knew that he had not intended to tell Thomas. “I’m" sorry,” she said.“It doesn’t matter. He may as well know.” Thomas’ face was lined with emo­tions—“Tell me!” he begged. “Do you remember the radio op­ erator on the ship?” Paul was staring out at the other I on over there,” he said. “Sure. He didn’t speak a word of English.”Paul smiled. “He’s played his part well. But, he is a government agent just as I am.” Joan Was as surprised as Thomas, She remembered the night Paul went to the radio room, not heeding a warning from Thomas, but she. had not thought about the. incident since. ‘From the papers I obtained on the ship,” Paul continued, "I guessed where this hideout was. I told Jim—that’s the radio man’s name—to send a message for help stating our location here. I had to guess the time element—how long we would be in MazaUan and when we would arrive here. So the mes­ sage didn’t go out until today.” ’ ‘Then they’ll send someone after us?” Thomas asked eagerly. “Yes. But help can’t possibly come before tomorrow.” ‘Why did you tell him not to send the message' until today?” Joan inquired. “There was no use of their arriv­ing before we did. In that case Karl and Mulford' Would not have been here either.” ‘But we’re safe,” Thomas insist- “If help is coming, there’s nothing more to wony about.” “It isn’t as simple as that,” Paul said. “Karl may have been suspi­cious of Jim, in which case that message did not get through. Even if it did, we must stall until tomor­ row. There is still time for Mulford and Karl to dose up this place and escape, or worse than that, take us with them.” ‘So now we must wait again,” Joan said. ‘If things look 'too bad,” Paul told them seriously, “ I’ll have to make Karl think I am accepting his proposition to . turn traitor. That will hold him for awhile.”‘But if help didn’t come, how would you get out, of it?”‘That’s something I’d rather not think about! The important thing is to get through this day.” But the day passed peacefully enough. Lunch and dinner had been brought, and how fresh logs were heaped upon the fire as the long shadows of night fell. ‘If this goes on until tomorrow, we’ll be safe,” Paul commented. But Karl Miller had no intention of letting it go on until tomorrow.It was shortly after eight o’clock when he arrived for his answer. ‘You have been thinking over my proposal?” he asked Paul. “I’ve been thinking about it, yes.” Karl rubbed his hands together. “Good. Then I suppose you are willing to come in with us.” “I haven’t decided yet." Joan' and Thomas watched him, knowing that upon this interview depended their safety. Karl’s attitude changed immedi­ ately. “I’ve had enough of this! Make up . your mind right now. There are important things to be done. We will not waste any more time, Mr. O’Malley.” : ’ ‘Suppose I do join you?” Paul parried. “Will you assure me of. Joan’s safety?”‘Safety, yeS. -But if you want her sent back to San Francisco, you are asking the impossible—for obvious reasons. You are not buying Joan’s release; you are merely saving her from . . . ” Paul silently clenched his hands. “Let us stop stalling,” Karl said impatiently. ‘In a few simple words, this is the situation. If you do not give us your assistance and the information you have about your government’s activities, Joan and Sybil, too, will be taken to the coast tonight and put aboard a ship for another country: Is my meaning clear?”“All too clear,” Paul said. “You leave me no choice but to accept.” Karl bowed slightly. “Congratu­lations! You have courage, ldr. O’Malley, and sense enough to know when you are beaten.” , Paul’s face was expressionless as he said, “One thing I must be sure of and that is Sybil’s immediate release.” Karl laughed. “That is quite sim­ ple. She is waiting on the porch now. You see, I anticipated your decision. ,“Syb!” Joan cried as the door opened to admit her sister.' . “I’d like to know what’s going Laughing and crying, they were in each other’s arms. Joan did not even see Karl and Paul leave. Iliomas was listening as intently as if it were his personal concern, and Joan felt sorry for him. He had nothing, nobody, to care about.. So the three of them sat before the fire smoking and talking, explaining the chain of events that had taken place since the sisters were sepa­rated. Thomas told-how- he had come from Germany and obtained a job,' hoping to save enough to send for his wife. How Karl had put an end to his hopes by telling him that she would be put into a concentration camp. Thomas was sure now that his wife had died. As he talked, Joan was surprised to note that he was a man of more intelligence and education than she had thought. Be­ fore Karl Miller had broken his spirit, Thomas undoubtedly was a different person. He was ail exam­ple of the havoc Karl had wrought in the human soul. Could he con­tinue to dominate and destroy the lives of others? Tomorrow that ques­ tion might.be answered. Joan and Sybil continued talking long after they had gone to bed. They could hear Thomas’ shuffling about the liinng room, apparently too restless to sleep. “He’s really pathetic,” Sybil said. “Karl has made him that' way. Oh, Syb, when I think what a; fool I made of myself over Karl Miller! How could I have been so dumb?” “You were just inexperienced,” Sybil said. “And now that you love Paul, you mustn’t think about the past.” Joan wondered what'Karl and Paul were doing. What was happen­ ing in that other house? “I wonder if he’s all right now,” she said un­easily. “He can tell Karl almost anything tonight. Karl won’t have a chance to find out before help comes wheth­ er it’s true or not. And tomorrow we should be out of here.” - But Joan’s uneasy feeling pre­ vailed long after she heard Sybil’s regular breathing at her side. Mov­ ing cautiously so as not to disturb her sister; she slipped into her coat and went into the living room. “So you can’t sleep either,” Thom­ as said. “No. I wish I knew what was going on. I’m so worried. about Paul. Karl might do anything if his suspicions are aroused. Suddenly there was a sound. “What’s that?” Joan cried, step ping back. Thomas stood' motionless, listen­ ing. The sound came again, fol­lowed by a soft clicking noise at the door. Joan extinguished the light. The door slowly opened and a figure, entered. ‘‘Paul!” Joan said in a tone whis­per, reaching for the ligbt switch. “Don’t turn on the lights!" Paul commanded. His flashlight broke through the shadowy night “Well, they’ve come! Sooner than I expect­ ed, but I think we can make it.” “You mean'help has come! But where?” Joan cried in amazement. “A plane, several miles from here. How. listen to me very carefully.I want you to go out through the bedroom window and straight down the road to the gate. There’s noth­ ing to be afraid of. AU the guards are out of the way. I’U meet you at the gate.” ■ / ' “You’re not going back to that other house now?” Joan asked. .“I’ve got to, honey! There are some papers I want to get.” ‘.‘But Karl and Mr. Mulford WU hear you!” “Karl and Mulford are out like a light,” Paul' said. “I put a couple of sleeping powders in their drinks. They won’t come to for awhile!” As Paul slipped noiselessly back to the other house, Joan went into the bedroom to rouse Sybil. ■ The small house was directly be­hind the larger one and nq one could see the three figures as they. went down the road; Paul was wait­ ing. There were .two other men with bim. “This way,” he said, taking the girls by; the arm and leading them to an automobile. (TO BE COHTmiED) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY! cHooL L esson By HAROLD L. LUNDQUISTt D. D.Of The 1Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for May 31 ; Lesson subjects and Scripture- texts se­lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. FRIDAY: THE DAY OF ' SUFFERING< LESSON TEXT—Mark 14:32*34, 44*46; IS: 1-5. GOLDEN TEXT—Not my will, but thine< be done.—Luke 22:42. Suffering such as, no man ever faced came upon Oiir Lord in the night between Thursday and Friday as He prayed in Geihsemane. Ha­tred and condemnation were poured upon Him as He went through the mockery of false trials on Friday. The important events of last week’s lesson had taken place, the precious words of comfort and as­surance had been spoken, and now as midnight brings the darkness of night to its deepest hue, the Son of Man goes alone into the depth of the garden where we see Him I. Sorrowful onto Death (14:32-34). This Scripture portion uses many words to convey the depth of His soul’s agony, as though it were im­ possible to express it in the faulty medium of speech. So it is, for our Lord here experienced something far more serious than a dread of physical death. He was not a cow­ard. He was not afraid to die. But now His soul was about to have put upon its spotless sinlessness the stain and dishonor of the world’s sins. As Krummacher says: “Some­ thing approached Him which threat­ ened to rend His nerves and the sight of it to freeze the blood in His veins.” Little wonder that He was “sorrowful even unto- death” (v. 34). It should break our hearts to see His loving heart break! Since this was the road the Mas­ ter trod, should not His servants tread it still? Service for Christ may call for passing through deep and chilling waters, but never as deep or as cold as those Cf Gethsemane.Jesus took with Him into the gar­ den the three who were closest to Him In the circle of disciples. He counted on their fellowship and sym­ pathy in His hour of anguish. Mere­ ly to have them near Him, to know that they were there to watch and pray even though they could not share His holy burden, was to be a comfort to Him. ’ How ignominiously they failed: The spirit was willing (v. 38), but the flesh took the upper hand, and they slept! He was alone with His Father1 when He prayed that if it were possible the hour might pass front Him, but in true and .beautiful submission said, “Not what I will, but what thou wilt.” n. Betrayed With a Kiss (14:44-46). To betray the one who had done nothing but good, who had loved him and served - him even in the washing of his feet, this would have been far more than one could have expected of even the sin-blackened heart of a Judas. But . he filled the measure- of his ignominy to over­ flowing by betraying his Lord with the sign of affection—a kiss. We know that we may not stand on the same ground as our Lord even here, for, whereas He Had done nothing to merit betrayal, we at our best are not able to stand forth without fault. Nevertheless, great is the hurt when we face the be­ trayals of life. It may be one whom we have befriended, who has been the object of our loving thought and care, and who-in the hour when he thinks to gain himself some ad­ vantage or avenge some fancied wrong strikes' us ;in the back, even as he smilingly professes to be a friend. Shall we be embittered in soul and give like for like?. God for­bid! Let us rather say as Jesiis did to Judas, “Friend, wherefore art thou come?” (Matt. 26:50). III. Condemned by Hatred and Cowardice (15:1-5). We have only a partial picture of the betrayal of Jesus in our les­son, but it is typical of all tbat took place, for it reveals the hatred-in- spired. false witness of the Jews, which, combined with the cowardice of Pilate, resulted in His being con­demned to death. Pilate was convinced of His inno­cence, but because of the pressure by Jeudsh leaders he was in a dif­ ficult position. He was afraid to follow his convictions, feeling that it was more expedient to yield to >the will of the populace. So he lost his great opportunity to write his name large among the heroes of history. - Many there are who. follow in Pi-' late’s steps. They know what they ought to do with Jesus, but fearing the comments of friends1 op the pos­sible loss of earthly advantage, they let Him be crucified afresh by.their unbelief. ^ ThS Jewish leaders and those whom they had misled hated Jesus with a malicious hatred which made them relentless in their 'determi­ nation to destroy Him.

WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON Associated Newspapers—WNU Features. NEW YORK--Possibly there will be a touch of Sweden’s “middle way” in Paul V. McNutt’s new man power commission which is recruit- ing skill and’ Man-PowerBoard brawn for Appointee Rose to war produc- Heights on Pluck £ appointment on the board is 36-year- old Wendell Lund, Michigan-born son of Swedish immigrants, repre­ senting the Labor Production divi­sion of the WPB, succeeding Sidney Hillman in this capacity.Mt. Lund emerges as a new and powerful figure in ,the war-labor lineup. Impressive in physical bulk and with a record of achievement to match—a record quite remarkable for his years. Citizens of Swedish birth or an­ cestry have been cheering for their Wendell Lund for quite a few years and picking him as the most likely to succeed in the domain of useful public service. He is the son of Dr. C. A. Lund, Lutheran minister of Escanaba, Mich., president of the Augustana synod of Lutheran churches. Wendell Lnnd won the Michi­ gan state high school oratorical contest and was graduated at head of his class, at.the age of 16. Getting through Angnstana college, he worked as a laborer, in a flooring mill and foreman in a railroad tie yard. On Sat­ urday nights, he worked in a store and earned $5 a week edit­ ing college publications. Again he was graduated at the top of his class. He took his master’s degree at Columbia university and snatched a doctor’s degree from Princeton in a brief two years. , , In 1934 he was co-operating with the department of the interior in conservation work and in reshaping the depressed economy of the Monongahela valley. In 1935, he organized and directed a section of the division of sub­ sistence homesteads, engaged in a wide range of similar governmental projects and worked a Jiight shift in which he took a law degree from Georgetown university, in 1937. In January, 1941, Governor Van Wag­ oner of Michigan made him secre­ tary of the state administrative board at a time when corruption had been prevalent in the $22,000,000 state purchasing budget. He cleaned that up nicely and was appointed executive secretary of .the Michigan unemployment compensation com­ mission. This job was a stepping stone to his new post in which get­ ting the right man in the right job is as important as getting the. right shell in the right gun.

Flying for Czarist Russia, he got only a wooden leg out of the First World war and thinks we will be lucky to come off -as well in this one, unless we wake up. Arriving here, in 1918, he ac­ quired a $5,000,000 airplane fac­tory and a beautiful wife, the former Evelyn Oliphant of New Iork.. Dog-fighting, the Germans, his ship was dropped to the Baltic. One of his own bombs exploded. Re­gaining consciousness, clinging to a wing, he made a tourniquet of his trouser leg. He had swooned again when a Russian destroyer picked him up; his leg blown away.' In Washington, he became consulting engineer for the United States air service, building amphibian planes, a master of stunt flying with a dead motor. He has filled out an illus­ trious career as a designer and builder of planes. He is no - arm­ chair air strategist.

New Pictures of India’s National Leaders As the clouds of war gather ever more densely over vast India, greater attention is focused on its lead­ers. At the right is Mahateia Gandhi, spiritual head of the Indian national congress party, who was instru­ mental in thwarting Sir Stafford Cripps’ efforts at war unity. This new picture shows Gandhi walking with his secretaries and aides. At the left is Pandit Nehru; active and more belligerent leader of the same na­ tional congress party.

AU timber in the sets had to be used over and over. It took seven months to make the picture, but Mr. Wilcox feels that the very difficulties helped to give it an unusual quality of r«*«lity.

Sounds a bit like some of those hilarious “Topper” films. It has been years, and it seems like forever, since first there was talk of making a picture of Rudyard Kipling's “Kim.” Metro has owned the screen rights for a good while, and is settling down to work now, with Mickey Rooney to play the ti­ tle role, after he finishes "A Xank at Eton.” — *— As a boy Joel McCrea used to play around- a haunted house on a nill top.

I By WILLARD E* GIVENS Exeatitve Secretary,, NaHontd EducaHon Association. ' T HAS been estimated that over one million boys and girls will leave high school this spring with their diplomas. It is this same group of boys and girls, the youth of the nation, who were figuratively being spoken to when a commence­ ment speaker said to a group of graduates before him: 4tVoulutve seen more history than you have read.” During the first half of 1942 , the pages of history have been turning fast, recording the names of<$> men and their deeds in the greatest ‘ drama of ail ages. And now today, not only the high school graduate, but all those who have read the story of man’s up­ ward struggle from the early dawn of history to the present time, rec­ ognize the climax of history in which they are now living. Each and everyone—especially the high school graduate—is seeking to find the proper place, the suitable niche in it. The Significance of Today. Only to the man who is in some measure educated is it granted to know what is going on about him and to estimate its significance. There is an old story of two peas­ ants of Brabant who were weeding their crops on a sultry Jime day in 1815 when the guns of the Iron Duke greeted those of Bonaparte at Wa­terloo. One of the peasants lifted his eyes from his hoe and scanned the horizon. "Soule,” he said, “it thunders; it will rain today!” As the guns of destiny broke the silence of their fields, these two peasants went on hoeing their vegetables, al­ most as ignorant as their beets and cabbages of what went on any­ where else in the world but in the limited sphere in which they moved. Uie mental isolation of man­ kind in file not-so-long-ago un­ happy days of the human race when one class of men was priv­ ileged to enjoy the culture and refinement of wide knowledge, and another class- was doomed to live and die in vulgarity and poverty, is banished. Universal education has banished it. The high school, especially, is re­sponsible for making this vastly different world from file one which existed a century and a quarter ago when Europe was . rocked as it is today by the clash of arms and ideals—and only a few knew the issues and fewer still had a part in resolv­ ing them. Today, high school students see themselves in the setting of time and events. In their hearts is a stirring that finds its expression in a common question, “What is my place in all this?” Some of the boys may volunteer at once for service in the armed forces. The army has just an­ nounced that volunteers 18 and 19 years old may select training in file combat branch of their own. pref­ erence—infantry, cavalry, artillery, tank corps, air corps, signal corps, or corps of engineers. Others will wait the decision of the Selective Service system as to where and when they may serve best. Many graduates will continue their education under the direction of the navy, which has in operation plans by which graduates may go on to college and pursue studies in which they may earn college credits and at the same time pre­pare for more, effective service in the navy. From this group, the huge two-ocean battle fleet now building in our shipyards will se­ cure many of its commissioned of­ficers. War Industries to Hire Many. Some thousands of these high school graduates, boys and girls, will at once enter war-industries to help manufacture the guns and tanks and planes upon which Jhe fighting men on far-flung battle fronts depend. The graduates may enter these industries at once, or they may enroll in one. of many different types of training for more skilled service in the factories pro­ducing the material of war.These training opportunities range from the elementary vocational schools where the simpler skills of the assembly line are acquired, to the technical and engineering schools of our great universities which are turning out recruits for highly responsible positions both in the armed forces and in industrial ranks. The high schools themselves in many city school systems, and in some of the village schools serving farm areas, are equipped to offer a high grade vocational training. Some graduates who have taken non - vocational courses in high school will immediately begin such courses, if available, in the schools from which they have been gradu­ ated, or they will seek that kind of training in neighboring communi­ties. The federal government in June, 1940, appropriated $15,000,000 to equip and staff the rapidly ex- V iclory vs. Luxury “John’s older brother who fin-' ished high school In 1941 burned up the tires of his old jallopy on the highways at sixty miles an hour, either pleasure or business' bent.

There is opportunity of some kind today for youth every­where. AU can join in the ‘‘great adventure” in some capacity. This is true for girls as well as for boys. Many girls are taking their places in the war industries. Hie great ex­pansion of offices in Washington and other centers iff administra­ tion of the war effort issue calls . for typists, stenographers, clerks ' and secretaries. Many girls are enrolling in nursing courses which lead to direct or indirect 1 service, for some of which of­ ficer’s commissions are avail­ able, in 4Uie armed forces. The kinds of military work for girls to Choose from are numer­ ous, and announcements of fur­ ther opportunities are expected from time to time. Ofttimes the impulse to seek serv­ ice far afield is ill advised. There is also the home front. Whole states must be prepared to resist invasion from land, sea or air. Civilian de­ fense is vital. First aid, air raid duty, auxiliary fire and police serv­ ice must be manned and adminis­ tered. In hundreds of agricultural com­ munities high school graduates will immediately lay aside their diplo­ mas for cultivator handles and hoes. There is much truth in the slogan that “Food will win the war.” The T-!« m u A mechanized army calls for the utmost;:'inventive and operational skills which the American people can produce. These Denver high school beys will know how to operate Mt electric semaphore if they should serve in toe signal corps of toe army. Many high school graduates, such as these at toe Hannah Pom, junior high school, York, Pa., will-be able to take their places without much furth­ er training in toe ranks of those who are planning to defend their com­munities from death dropping down during air raids. panding vocational departments and schools of . less than college grade which had undertaken to train workers for defense industries. The need of workers was so urgent and the plan of meeting it so successful that subsequently other sums were appropriated for this purpose. By March, this year, approxi­ mately 2,463,862 workers had been prepared for the war industries in this manner. This number is in addition to those trained for simi­ lar occupations in the vocational courses that constitute the normal service of the schools. The demand for toe graduates of these vocational courses is much greater than toe supply and is increasing. -According to toe War Production board, over ton million additional war industry workers will be needed within toe year ahead to staff plants now being built or ex­ panded. *The vocational training activities in Oakland, Calif., are typical of those in many cities near great ship­yards or other centers producing the machinery of war. On April I, 1942, there were 199 classes in “de-' fense training” in the Oakland schools, enrolling 3,901 students. This was 473 less than the number of students toe Oakland schools were prepared to accommodate in this kind of work.During January, February and March an average of 500 trained workers a month were placed in. war manufacturing from this school system. Htere have , never been sufficient trainees enrolled to meet the demand for riveters, chippers, caulkers, ship fitters, sheet metal Problem s of Education A ired a t Conference At an annual meeting of toe American Coimcil of Education, Chicago, Hl., the following state­ments were made by educators: Roscoe L. West, president, State Teadiers college, Trenton, N. J., said: "People know ,intuitively that education must focus on getting folks ready to live better In their community than they would have lived otherwise. And by community I mean the nation and toe world.” Wiltiam J. Hamilton, superintend­ ent of schools, Oak Park, Hl., spoke on this problem which faced educa­ tion': "There is evidence that dur­ ing the post-war period, conditions pertaining to the support of the pub­ lic schools will not be improved. The demand for social security Is already being given much consid­eration as the principal factor in toe new social order and may super­sede education in.'importance . . . public education - will become in­ volved; in a confusing mass of legis­lation.” provision of food stuffs and toe use of foods dictated by modern knowl­edge of nutrition for both civilian and soldier are of vital importance. Many of the opportunities may be seized without leaving home or community. The alert and eager high school graduate will look about him for unfilled places in toe ranks, step in where he is best qualified and serve. The student selected by fate for graduation in 1942 faces towering- handicaps as well as opportunities. For many of these graduates, school days are ended. In any case, edu­cational careers will1 be interrupt­ ed or diverted from original pur­poses. The Test They Face. Ambitions must be modified, new emphasis placed upon ideals and duties. The high school graduate of 1942 faces the severest kind, of test which can be given to individuals_the test of flexibility, adjustment to untoward circumstances. This ap­plies to the minor as well as to the major enterprises of life. The contrast is still greater if we compare this generation with grand­ father’s as an illustration of change in our national life. To that elderiy gentleman! now toasting his slippered heels in retirement by the fireplace, Horace Greeley’s advice, “Go West, young man,” was an inspiration. There was an immeasurably wealthy West to conquer. Grandfatoersaw the .finishing touches given to the world’s greatest economic empire, as-the ingenuity, energy, and de­ termination of a New world, assem­ bled from the tribes from toe Old, trimmed'off the last frontiers from toe American wilderness. Looking beyond the present strife, there is toe citizen-in-the-making getting ready for the years ahead. Complete and final victory would be unavailing if we lost in peace what -we had won in war. There is a tre­ mendous task -of reconstruction .ahead of all toe world. There -is toe rubble to clear away; but much, more important there are new struc­ tures to take the place of toe old.The vision and capacity of today’s youth will determine whether they live in the ruins of a past or in new edifices builded upon the ideals of freedom and liberty. F IR S T -A ID to the A IL IN G H O U S E by Roger B. Whitman (BsIeaKd by Weatern Neempaper Union.! PATCHING OF CRACKED - PLASTER SOMB friends of mine are doing over an old farmhouse. Plaster on the walls is firmly attached to the lath, but is badly cracked. It would be a long job to replace all the old plaster with new, and even if it were not, plasterers in their community cannot be had because of nearby defense construction work. If much of the plaster were loose, they would have no option, with the alternative of covering the old walls with some form of wall- board. As it is, it seems to me that their simplest way out . would be to fiti the cracks with patching plas­ter, or with a similar material called “spackle.” For a good job, a crack should be cut out and made wider at toe lath than on the surface, so that in hardening,' a patch will lock itself into place. Before putting in a patch, the old plaster should be dampened to prevent water from being drawn from the patching com­ pound. Narrow cracks can.be filled at once to the surface, but wider cracks should be filled only three- quarters full. When this part of the. patch has hardened, the rest can be filled and the . surface smoothed. This will overcome any possible trouble from shrinkage. The job will be a long and tedious one, of course, but it is one that the own­ers can do themselves, and at their convenience. To replace the plas­ ter of an entire room would make far more of a mess, and be much more disturbing. This patching method, for instance, need not in­jure the floor finish, which with a complete plastering job would prob­ ably be badly defaced. New Bathroom Question: The house on the farm where we live is 80 years old and in fair condition. We intend to put in an upstairs bathroom, but I am afraid that the tub, especially when it is being used, would be too heavy for the ceiling of the room below. Would there be any danger of its breaking through? How can the ceil­ing be strengthened? ' Answer: If possible, put the bath­room in such a place that the weight of the tub will be carried by the bearing wall of the room below. If this cannot be done, the length of the tub should be across the floor beams so that several of them will carry its weight. Even so, the beams may need strengthening; get toe advice o! a good house builder on this point. Sandy Concrete Question: I am told that a sandy concrete floor should have a new topping applied. What thickness should it be? Can the sanding be stopped by painting? Can asphalt tiles be applied over painted con­crete? Answer: You are misinformed on the need for a new topping; for the concrete can be so treated that sanding will be stopped. By one method the floor can be painted; but it shopld be a kind of-paint that is proof against the, effects of. the limein toe cement. There are sev­eral paints of this kind; some of them made with a rubber base. Ask your paint dealer about them. As­ phalt tiles can be applied over the paint. . Floor Damaged by Sunlamp Question: Can you advise what to do to a varnished hardwood floor that was damaged by a sunlamp? The rays apparently burned the var­nish right off. and have given the wood a coat of tan, or darkened it several degrees. How deep is the damage? Answer: I doubt if the damage has gone much below the varnish. Try sandpapering the spot until you get down to clean wood. You can then touch up toe spot with light coats of floor varnish, blending toe edges. Finish, if desired, with thin coats of paste floor wax, each well rubbed after drying. Blond Maple 'Question: How should I go about changing a maple dinette to light, blond maple? Answer: Remove the finish down to toe bare wood by sandpapering, scraping, with liquid varnish remov­ er or in any other way. Bleach toe stain and color out of toe wood with a prepared liquid bleach, which your paint dealer should be able to sup­ply. Use it according to the direc­ tions on toe container. Finish with a good quality clear lacquer. Softening Faint Brashes Question: How can I make a solu­tion for softening : hard paint brushes?Answer: Dissolve a cup of tri- sodium phosphate or washing soda in a quart of hot water. For quick­ est effects, use this boiling hot. At a hardware store you can get a powder to be'dissolved in water,-in­tended for this purpose. ’ -Colored Conerete . -Question: In building a recreation room in a house that is under com 'struction, we would like to have the floor of red concrete rather than natural. color. Is, this advisable? What should we use? , , Answer: Color In.concrete is very satisfactory, bqt you should be-sure to use . colors tiiat are proof against toe '-effects of lime and that will not fade. On request, the Portiand Cement association, 33 West Grand, avenue, Chicago, will send you a bulletin on toe coloring of concrete. TH IN G S.
