LET ME FORGET
Rev. Walter E. benhour. Hlddenite. N. C
Let me forget each bitter thing,
Let me forget each slight ar sling
Let me forget the fears that cling;
Let me, let me forget.
Let me forget each grief and p ain
Let me forget each sad refrain,
The way to grumble and complain,
AU these let me forget.
Let me forget to scold and frown,
To criticise and trample down—
Let me forget pride and renown;
Oh, that I may forget!
Let me forget each cloudy day,
Let me forget each rugged way;
Let me forget myself, I pray,
These things let me forget.
Let me remember peace and rest,
Let me remember all that’s best,
Holding joy closest to my breast,
AU else let me forget.
' —Gospel Herald.
How great, how grand, how
blessed, how wonderful to forget
some things! Yes, even many
things. The author of the above
poem has put some wonderful ideas
and truths into this little composit
ion. A poem like this is well worth
keeping. Many people would do
well to memorize it and quote it
quite often It is a known fact
that the enemy of our - lives and
souls is continually at us to remem
ber the bad and forget the good;
whereas, God would have us for-
get the bad and remember the
good. Just the thing that the dev
il wants us to have is the very
thing we don’t need, and the thing
God wants us to have is just what
we need. What the devil wants to
chock our minds with is wbat we
should hate and absolutely refuse
to accept and remember, because
it is and always will be hurtful to
us in body, mind, soul and spirit;
but what God wants our minds fill
ed with is what we should love,
retain and never forget. Indeed
this is so.
There are lots of things that I
won’t let my mind dwell upon.
They are hurtful to myself and
could be hurtful to my fellowmen.
I want to forget all my blunder?
and mistakes, sins, shortcomings
and failures in life as much as pos-
sible, after I have sincerely asked
and prayed God to forgive, which
He has forgiven and put under the
blood of Christ; and I want to for
get the blunders, sins, shortcom
ings and failures 'of my fellowmen
as much as possible. I want to for
get the hard things they have said
about me, and the sorrows and
heartaches they have caused me,
but remember all the good things
they have said about me and the
good things they have done for me.
Amen, and praise tbe Lord. I al
ways feel much better and happier
in m y mind, heart, soul and spirit
when I forget the bad and remem
ber the good, don’t you? Then
why let your mind continually
dwell upon the bad things of life?
They hinder you from obtaining
and retaining the good things of
life.
The wicked Haman, of whom we
read in the book of 'Esther, could
not enjoy the good and marvelous
blessings of life because be despised
and hated Nordecai, the godly, no
ble Jew, who wo.ild not bow to
him. Therefore be >etained this
envy and hatred in his mind and
heart until he laid a plan whereby
to kill Mordecai and get him: out of
the way. However, it turned out
that, the very gallows .upon which
he built to han^ Mordeeai he met
his own fate. He was caught In
his own trap. That is what sin
will do.

Baptists Ask Liqoor
Sale Ban at Camps
San Antonio, Te*.—The South
ern Baptist Convention called upon
the President of the United States
and the secretaries of war and navy
to “eliminate the sale of alcoholic
beverages to the armed forces”
characterizing liquor as a “sinister
force lowering the morale and mor
ality of the nation.” '
Tbeconvention formally stated
its position in the war effort by a*
dopting tbe report of social sexvice
commission, preparsd by former
Governor Pat Neff of Texas, call
ing upon its people “as a great re
ligious organization not to sit idlv
by and expect God to win this war
or rebuild our civilization at its
triumphant end.”
The Baptists, balked at accept
ing a portion of the report which
said: “AU our religious, educa
tional, commercial and political
gatherings should have now but
one program and that program
should be, win the war and estab
lish peace.’' The grounds of the
refusal were that tbe resolution
failed to state that the churches
should also carry on their spritual
functions.
“Truth will not die, but truth
does not have the power within it
self to rise,” tbe commission re
ported. “Truths to be potent must
have leaders who are willing, to
fight, and if need be, die in their
defense.”
The liquor question resolution
was brought by Dr. J. Howaril
Williams, pastor of the First Bap
tist Church of Oklahoma City. It
stated that ‘‘the manufacture and
sale of alcoholic beverage to the
civilian and armed forces of the
United States” and protested ttse
of grains and sugar in large quanti
ties in the manufacture of liquor.
Moonshiners Take No
Chances With Copper
Copper, whicb is very dear to
the heart of the moonshiner in
these times, is being placed on the
priorities list of these gentry as far
as law enforcement officials are con
cerned.
When J. F. Ratledge, alcohol
tax until investigator at Greens,
boro, raided . distillery location
with Stokes county officers in the
Good WiU section of Stokes, he
found that the vital organs of the
outfit had been carried away by
the operators after their last “run.”
Apparently, from what the of
ficers found, the operators were
waiting for a 200 gallon lot of
ffiash to ferment, in readiness for
the next run, and In the meantime
were carefully hiding tbe portable
sections of their copper plant The
mash was destroyed, but the dis
tillery parts have not been found.

WAR BONDS
Aside from the sixty-mile an hour Mosquito Torpedo Boats, .the Sub Chasers are the speedsters of our Navy. Idght and fast, they are the eyes of the Fleet on the water. They displace approximately 1,500 tons and cost about $2 ,400 ,000 ' each.
We need many of these powerful, Jast little boats to cope with the
treacherous submarine type of naval warfare fostered by our ene
mies. Everybody can-help pay for more Sub Chasers by putting at
least ten percent ot his income into War Bonds. Buy Bonds or Stamps every pay day. Buy them from your bank, your post office, or from your office or factory through the PayroU Saving*. Flan.

Bomb The Hell Oat
Of Japs.
Raleigh—“I pray that our A-
merican boys will go to Japan and
bomb the hell out of them,” tbe
Rev. J. Frank Norris, widely-trav
eled Baptist preacher, asserted in an
interview here.
Dr. Nonis, here tobegina a series
of services, serves a congregation of
10,000 in Fort Worth, Texas, and
commutes to Detroit, Mich., by
plane to preach to 7,000 in his
church there.
He advocated a defeat of the axis
as “total and as terrible as the total
war which Hitler has waged” and
defined the most serious problem of
the day as a spirit ot pacifism and
appeasement whicb “may lead to a
premature peace,”.
We need again the spirit of Eli
jah on Mount Carmel, when he
took the 800 false prophets down to
the river—and not for a baptism,
We need again the spirit of David
when he brought back the head of
Goliath,” declared Dr. Morris, who
takes an active part in politics and
frequently draws criticism from
more orthodox ministers.

Dear Sin-Enclosed find check
for f i , due on your paper
Father Brock is still able to read
and tbe day The Davie Record
comes he always gives it his first
attention.
We have been having an abund
ance of rain in Indiana, and the
farmers are behind with their spring
work. Some are not yet through
plowing. Very little corn has been
planted. Wheat, rye and oats are
not very promising. Clover looks
fine.
Notice the signature on the check.
Don’t yOu think that is fine for a
man past 105 years. We would
like to hear froth any of our folks
In the Old North State.
EDITH M. BROCK.
From A Davie Soldier
Dear Mr. Stroud:—Well here I
am, still in good old Virginia, lik
ing it just fine. I guess the'reason
I like it so well here is because so
many of the people are from North
Carolina.
How is everything back In good
old Davie county now? I guess
there is not quite as many young
fellows there as used to be. I un
derstand quite a few have been
drafted and one or two enlisted in
the Marines, I can truly say to
those who have enlisted in tbe Ma
rines, that they are in a great
branch of tbe service. I don’t say
this because I like it, but because
of .the background it has from past
duties it has performed.
I know we are all going to have
it pretty tough before this thing is
aU over. I-also know .we can’t win
this war just by us fighting. You
people back home’ have got to back
us up one hundrecf per cent, and I
know you will, because if we lose
this war you all know wbat wiU
happen. That is why we must win
this unwanted war.
I believe every American citizen
who loves his or her country will
do everything in their power to
help us win this war. I want to
thank you for The Record. I en
joy reading it very mnch, and want
you to keeD u d the good work. I
also want to say to everyone who
reads this letter, good luck and God
bless you aU. Pray for me and I
will pray for you.

Fiom The Yellow Jacket
We wonder what the New Deal
ers would say if the farmers were
to decide to go on a 40-hour work
week.
Remember the good old days
when everybody ran to the front
window to see that rare bit of
mechanism, the automobile, chug,
ging down Main street? WeU,
cheer up, brother, the good old
days will soon be here again.
We wonder if the Bible don’t
predict the tire shortage. It says:
“In that day the Lord will take a
way the bravery of their tinkling
ornaments about tbeir feet, and
their cauls, and tbeir round tires
like the moon." “The chains, and
the bracelets and the.mufflers.’'
18th and 19th verses of the 3rd
chapter of Isiah.
A pedestrian got run down in the
blackout. They took him home
and sent for the doctor. Whenthe
doctor had finished looking him
over he went outside and said to
bismissns: “I’m afraid, he’ll never
be able to work again.” “Then
I'll tell him straight away,” she
said. “It will cheer him up like
anything, he’s a WPA er.'1
We are told daily that to win the
War we must take the offensive.
And that is true, but the first of
fensive is right here at home a-
gainst the greedy, disloyal indus-
trial racketeers. But how are you
going to do that when Congress is
too cowardly to tackle the job?
The slogan “ Work or Fight”
should be sounded from one end of
the country to the other. The fath
ers and mothers of boys who must
fight shduld Iash the industrial
racketeers and all officialdom that
condones them, with whips like
scorpion stings. Let yonr Congress
man know you mean business.
We are being reminded that any.
thing is liable to happen In times
like these. Bnt one thing is cer
tain. That thing Is for the pres
ent generation, taxes are not going
to be reduced. And that is one
reason why we should see to it that
men are etected to Congress who
will go the limit on cutting out all
non-essential spending. The New
Deal wasters must be ousted this
fall or our doom is fixed, for cer
tain.
James T. Daly, Editor, Sample
Case, says: “Nebraska could pro
duce half tbe sugar tbe country
could consume, but the New Dea|
forbid.” And James N. Litton re
ports he saw ton npon tons of sugar
beets wasting in Michigan as the
quota forbid the beets being used,
And thus the story runs on how the
shortsightness of tne New Dealers is
responsible for the shortage .of
sugar.
You never know how much con
fidence to place in men who talk
big. For instance United States
Senators Claude Pepper of Florida,
not many months ago declared that
we could blow Japan off the map in
six weeks. He did not say wheth
er'we could do it with guns or
broomsticks. Where is Pepper’s
prediction now?

Hitcli-Hikmg Easier At
75
J. P. Burton, seventy-five, retir
ed Catawba county farmer who
bears a striking resemblance to Abe
Lincoln, says age is a real asset in
traveling by the thumb method.
Mr. Burton, still spry as a cricket,
set out early today to hitch-hike to
Salisbury.
Dissatisfied with the bus sche
dule, he walked out of the Hick
ory bus station with tbe boast he’d
“thumb’’ his way to the Rowan
county city ahead of the next bus.
It’s not difficult at all for an eld
erly man to get a ride, provided
he’s dean of body and clothing, ac
cording to Mr. Burton, and he
ought to know, for h once thumb,
ed his way to Pennsylvanta ■ on
eighty.five cents.
“I spent most of the eighty five
cents for post cards,” he comment
ed, laughing.—Hickory Rccord.
Hen Lays Three Eggs
In One Day.
Cooleemee Journal.
An Indian Game pullet, owned
by P. L. StiUer of MocksvUle, R.
4, believe it or not, has the unique
distinction of laying three eggs in
one day. “How do you know the
pullet laid all the eggs,’’ one might
ask. Well, the answer is as sim
ple as ABC, for it is the only pullet
he has on his place. Besides, the
chicken which is a pet, laid two .of
the eggs, one right after the other,
on the lap of Mr. Stiller’s little son,
Paul Lee, Jr., after she bad laid
one earlier in the day.
A Crazy Idea
There is one thing that we all
know, except tbe one. who wrote
the order prohibiting the sale, and
that is that there is no economy or
savings In restricting men’s suits to
one pair of pants. Every man, ex
cept the fellow who had an “ax to
grind,’’ knows that a coat will wear
out two pair of trousers. Pinch off
a cuff and employ, thousands of se
cretaries, typests, and tax collect
ors to check and double check on
merchants. We already have an
over .dose of non essential - ovein-
ment employees. — WUkesboro

CHAPTER XIX
The other men stayed at the gate.
Joan saw that they had pistols and two, machine guns. She and Sybil
climbed into the car, followed by
Paiil and Thomas."Won’t someone hear the car?”
Sybil asked.“It won’t matter. The place is
surrounded,” Paul told her.
Joan was surprised to find that there were three planes instead of
one, Paul put the girls and Thomas into! one of them.
"Happy landing!” he called. “I’ll
be in San Francisco tomorrow night.”
“You’re . not coming with us?” Joan cried in alarm.
"My job here isn’t done yet,” he reminded her. “Don’t worry, hon
ey,” he added as tears filled her eyes. “We’D round up the whole
bunch and it will be all over for good.” He thrust some papers
intci her hand. "Give these to Scot Reynolds. He’D meet you at the air
port and take care of everything. Good-by, darling!”
The plane gathered speed and rose into the air.
“We’re safe!” Thomas cried. “Do you know what that means to me?
I’m safe from Karl Miller! I can
Dve again. I’m free!”There were tears in his sad, blue
eyes.The three of them were weak from
fatigue and the reaction from tense
anxiety when they reached Seut Francisco six hours later. At the
airport they were met by Scot Rey
nolds. Joan gave him the papers.
"I have orders from Mr. O’Malley,” he said pleasantly. “I’D take
Thomas to a hotel and you girls are to go back to your apartment.”
He drove them there himself. "Imagine StDl having our apartment!” SybD said as they went into
the familiar rooms: “Who paid the
rent?”
Joan remembered Pat. “Paulis sister was Uving with me. She probably took care of it. I wonder
where she is now.” She ran into the bedroom but none of Pat’s clothes
were there. Paul had suspected Mrs. Murdock, but Scot Reynolds
had said nothing about Pat. Sure
ly, if she were in trouble, he would have known it.Too tired to think or even specu
late, the girls' undressed and went to bed. The first rays of the cold
winter sun were just creeping over the city.
It was four in the afternoon when
Joan awoke. She sat up in bed and
yawned luxuriously. How good it was to be home. To go into the Ut-
tle kitchen and prepare coffee. To
see SybU’s blonde head on its usual
place , on the piUow. And tonight Paul would come!
It was a real thrUl to discard the
black wool dress she had worn ever
since the night Karl surprised her and Paid in the beauty shop’s secret
room—to put on a soft gray crepe with matching turb.an—to take a
taxi to the nearest beauty shop—to have her hair set in fresh shining
waves — to have her fingernails
shaped back into brightly polished
ovals. She had a facial, too, deUght- ing in the efficient massage that
made her skin glow.It was seven-thirty when she got
back to the apartment.“You look like a new woman," Sybil commented.
“I see you’ve been at it too,” Joan repUed with a smUe, noticing that
each of SybU’s blonde curls was in
its proper place and that a fresh coat of rosy poUsh covered her long
nails. “I hope you didn’t go to the
Ritz.”
“It’s closed,” SybD said. “I went by there. That proves that they
must have caught up with Mrs: Mur
dock. By the way, Scot Reynolds was here. He’s going to take us aD
out to dinner. Wants us to meet him downtown and afterward we’U
go to the airport. Paul’s plane is due at nine-thirty.”They smiled at each other affec
tionately and after a moment SybU said, “Do you beDeve in love at first
sight?”“Why, Syb! What are you talking
about? You don’t mean Thomas?"“Of course not. It’s Scot Reynolds, Paul’s friend.”
Joan remembered his laughing blue eyes and crisp blond hair.
“I think he likes me too,” SybD continued self-consciously. “You’D
probably think I’m crazy, Joan. You know I haven’t had any faith in
love since my divorce . . .’’
"Maybe it’s time you started- to
beDeve'in things again,” Joan said as she drew her arm through her
sister’s. “And now we’d better caD
a taxi. Scot wiD be waiting!”
Dinner was a happy occasion.
Even Thomas seemed gay and care
free, and Joan, carefully scrutiniz
ing Scot Reynolds, noticed that his eyes were fastened upon SybD. As for Joan, her happiness Imew no
bounds.
It was just nine-thirty when they
reached the airport. Paul’s plane,right on schedule, was landing. Joan
broke away from the Dttle groupto run across the flying field just as
Paul appeared.* • •
“Oh darDng!” Joan cried, burying her head against the warmth of
Paul’s overcoat. “Are yoji aD
right?”“Of course I am, honey!” "Where’s Karl?” she asked, look
ing around.
“AD the prisoners are in the other plane.”
“TeD me about it. Did you get aD of them?”
“Everyone,” Paul said with sat
isfaction. “That’s one spy ring that wiD never operate again. But let’s
not talk about it, dear. We’ve had
enough of that in the last few mcaths. From now on it’s going to
be Mr. and Mrs. O’MaDey.”
The next week was the happiest Joan had ever known. Paul planned
to take a month’s vacation so they would have plenty of time for a hon
eymoon before they went back to Washington for his new assignment. They appDed for their marriage U-
cense, and planned to be married the foDowing Saturday. MeanwhDe
Joan shopped for clothes and house
hold objects which she could take to her new home With her. She bought
monogrammeu crystal ash trays,
glasses, luncheon sets, bath towels,
and an alabaster lamp. It was the
lamp that finatiy brought an inquiry from PauL
“What are we going to do with
aD this stuff?” he asked.
“SybD wiD send them after we’ve found an apartment in Washing
ton,” Joan told him happily. “Dar
ling, you don’t know how much fun it is to shop, especiaDy for your own
home! Women are funny about
things like that.”
“Evidently I don’t understand the
feminine mind,” Paid laughed.
For an instant Joan remembered Karl MDler, who had seemed to un
derstand everything about the feminine mind. She 'ran to Paul and put
her arms about his neck. “I’m glad you don’t!” she cried, kissing him.
“Paul, we wiD be happy, won’t we?” “You bet we wiD,” Paul said ten
derly.“Just think! A whole month be
fore we have to be back in Washington.”“We stiD haven’t decided where
to go for our honeymoon,” he reminded her. “Where shaD it be?
Honolulu? New York? Or,” he add
ed smiling, “how about Mexico?”
Joan shuddered. “Never again,
thank you! Let’s make it Honolulu, darling!”
She related their plans to SybD, adding, “Isn’t it wonderful, Syb? I never dreamed I could be so hap
py-”SybD was looking rather happy
herself these days. She had spent every single evening since their re
turn in the company of Scot Rey
nolds.
“You know, Joan, I don’t think I’D look for another job.”
“But Syb! What wDl you Uve on?” Joan asked in surprise.
“I stiD have some money in the bank that I saved when I was work
ing before, and Scot and I . . . WeD, we just seem to be in love,” she
finished, blushing.“I think that’s wonderful.”
“Of course, we’ve knowiTeach other only a week,” SybD continued
uncertainly. “And we wouldn’t want
to be married right away. But I have enough money to last a couple
of months and if we both feel the same way then . . .” Her blue eyes were shining and the bitter look was gone from her face.
ThomEis was happier too. Paul had found a job for him and though the
salary was not large he could manage wefi enough and, most important of aD, he was free from the
tyranny of KeutI MDler.There was only one unsolved prob
lem—Ihe whereabouts of Paul’s sister. Paul had refused to discuss
Patricia with Joan, saying, “I don’t
WEtnt to talk about it, honey! When
things are strEiightened out I’D tell you.”
WMU-Rckase.
“I shouldn’t have asked,” she said, kissing him. “Did you get the
tickets for the boat?”
“AD set!” Paul said, but she fancied there was a worried note in
his voice. She knew that he would
not want to leave San 1 Francisco with the problem of Pat unsettled,
yet she dared not inquire further.
Joan continued to think of it, however, and that night she decided to
ask him, but when he arrived at the apartment she knew from his ex
pression that he had brought good
news.
“It’s aD settled!” he said. “Pat
is at a hotel. I just took her there
myself. She wants us to come down
right away to see her.”
“Of course! But where has she been, Paul?”
“In jafl,” Paul said briefly. “Just
as I suspected, when we disap
peared, Pat tried to go to the potice
but Mrs. Murdock got hold .of her
first. She held her in her apartment and had her doing aD kinds
of things; sending messages in her
own handwriting and deDvering
plans to other members of the spy ring. When the poDce finaDy raided
the beauty shop, Pat was naturally
involved. They’ve held both of them
at headquarters awaiting my return.
And so their wedding day dawned
and without a flaw to mar their
happiness.
It was a quiet ceremony at the smafl church Joan and SybD had
attended for years. Thomas was there with Pat. SybD held tightly
to Scot Reynolds’ hand. Joan wore a pale green wool dress and coat
with soft fur coDar.
As they took their marriage vows, peace filled Joan’s heart—the peace
of a woman who is sure of her
choice.
Her eyes were wet with tears as she glanced at Paul’s face. He
was sUpping the wedding ring on
her finger. ~She heard his voice, strong, yet so fuD of tenderness . . .
"With this ring—I thee wed” . . .
The Dttle party returned to Paul’s
hotel for an early supper. The ship
was sailing at midnight. Joan’s bags had been brought to the hotel, fiDed
with lovely clothes for the trip. Everything was in readiness for their
departure. __
But as they "sat happfly in the dining room Paul was summoned to the telephone. “Long distance, Mr.
O’MaDey!”
“Hope it isn’t bad news,” Scot
Reynolds said with a frown when
Paul had gone.
“Bad news?” Bufwhat could happen now?” Joan cried, distressed,
SCot smfled. “When you’re in our
line of work you never know what is
going to turn up.”
When Paul returned, Joan knew that something had happened. His
brown eyes were troubled as he said, “Honey, I’m terribly sorry
this had to happen . . .”
“Oh Paul! What is it?”Paul and Scot exchanged glances.
“Orders, from Washington. A special assignment. My vacation is canceDed.”
The others looked at them in sympathetic sDence. For a moment Joan thought she would cry, then
seeing Paul’s distress, she lifted her chin and smfled. “It doesn’t mat
ter, darling!"He took her hand. “I don’t have to be in Washington until Monday night. We’D fly. At least we’D have
this week end.”
She lifted happy, confident eyes to
his. ■ “We’D have the rest of our Dves, darling!”
.‘.‘The rest of our Dves,” Paul, re
peated, kissing her tenderly.

AILING HOUSE

CLEANING SOILED UPHOLSTERY
T 1HE cleaning of sofled upholstery
-I should be weD within the abiflty of a housewife. The first step must
be to find out whether the fabric is colorfast, which can be done by wiping it in some concealed place with
a wet cloth, to note whether .or not the color comes off. If it does,
cleaning must be with a spot, remov
ing Dquid. For safety, this should be of a non-inflammable kind, to be
had at a department or house furnishing store, and often at a gas sta
tion. If the color is fast, the job can be done with soap jelly, to be
made by soaking , four cups of soap flakes or chips in one cup of water.
Iii an hour or two a jelly wfll form.
A portion of this is put in a mixing bowl and beaten with an eggbeater,
which wiD raise dry suds as thick
as heavy whipped cream. This is
appDed to the upholstery with a soft
brush. The work should be in spaces not more than 15 inches across.
The loosened dirt is taken up by
wiping with clean cloths damp with
clear water. With one space cleaned, the next should be worked on, being sure that no sofled places
are left between. No more water
should be used than is necessary; for if the upholstery is soaked, col
ors from the stuffing may “bleed”
into the upholstery. Also, drying may be very slow. For best results,
however, upholstery should be
cleaned by a professional. Home
methods may be uneven and streaky.
Base for Linoleum
Question: There has never been any flooring laid in my kitchen over
the plank subfloor, which is too rough
for laying linoleum. What is the
simplest way to smooth the surface without putting in a new floor?
Answer: I doubt if you can get
satisfactory service from linoleum without laying a new floor. The sim
plest way to do this would be to lay plywood over the subfloor. One-half
inch thickness might be enough, but five-eighths or three-quarters would
be better. Do not be tempted by the good looks of the newly laid ply
wood to use it as flooring, for the
surface would scuff too quickly. You should regard it only as a base for
floor covering.
Floor Board Cracks. .
Question: The floors in my old
house are of wide boards with large
cracks between them. How can
these cracks be fifled? I would like a
painted floor with scatter rugs.
Answer: No ordinary crack fifler
can be used; for it would be dislodged by the swelling and shrink
ing of the wood through changes in
the seasons. For permanent results, be sure that the boards are sofldly
nafled to the supporting beams, then clean the cracks and in each one
put a strip of wood cut to make a
snug fit. Glue the strips in place
and plane or sand the exposed edge even with the floor. If this job is
carefully done, it should last indefi
nitely.
Concrete Blocks
Question: Has a house buflt of con
crete blocks a ■ tendency toward dampness? If so, how can this be
eliminated? How can insulation be
appDed?
Answer: With wefl-made concrete
blocks and good construction a house need not be damp. However, if the inside plaster is appDed direct
ly to the block wafl there wiD prob
ably be dampness from condensation. This can be avoided by ap
plying the plaster on lath on furring
strips.. You can get fuD information
on methods of construction from the Portland Cement association, 32
West Grand avenue, Chicago.
Cleaning Rough Plaster.
Question: How can rough finished
anted plaster walls be cleaned? How about painting them?
Answer: The best that can be done in the way of cleaning is to go
over them with a stiff brush fol
lowed by vacuum cleaning. Plaster
that has no finish of any kind cannot be washed, for the water would
soak in and take the dirt with it,
which would make a smeary effect.
When a rough plaster waD. can no longer be cleaned by brushing and with a vacuum, the next best thing
is painting. For this, casein paint is usuafly satisfactory.
Drilling a China Vase
Question: I would like to turn a Diina vase into a lamp. How can I drfll a hole in the bottom? Is there
a special drfll for such work?Answer: The hole can be made
With a twist drifl having the tip ground off. You might be able to get a drill for this purpose at a
targe hardware store. Use turpentine as the lubricant. If the vase is
expensive, have it drflled by a professional, which would nbt be an ex
pensive job.
, Blackened Brass
Question: Our new fire grate has
a brass plated front When we Dt
a fire,-the brass became blackened, and I have not been able to clean it.
Will I have to replate it?
Answer: You can probably clean
it by dissolving common salt in ci
der. vinegar untfl no more wfll be
taken up, and stirring with flour to make a paste. Put this oh the brass
and let it stand for an hour or two.
AD traces of the salt should be thor
oughly washed off. I greatly doubt if replating wfll be needed.

NEW. TEST FOR UVER
When we think of the work done
by the Dver most of us are likely to think of the manufacture of bfle. !Die statement that life (and health)
depends upon the Dver has behind it
the thought of the value of bfle in breaking up fats, in keep
ing the Dver itself active and healthy
and in the prevention
of constipation.
The fact also that the Dver can store
sugEu: and proteins—
meat, eggs, fish products—for future
use may also be in
mind as we think about the Dver and
its work.However, one of the most impor
tant jobs done by the Dver is the
filtering out from the blood sub
stances that would be harmful to the
body, aflowing only helpful products of Die food to remain in the blood.
Thus it can be seen how important to health is this filtering power of the
Dver.The testing of the abflity of the
Dver to filter out or remove substances from the blood has been
done for a number of years by in
jecting a dye into the veins or tak
ing the dye by mouth and finding how long it takes the Dver to re
move aD this dye from the blood. Ever since the dye method has been
used there has been a controversy as to whether, dye taken by mouth or
dye injected into the veins, is the
more accurate method.
It is gratifying to know that a new test for Dver function (abflity)
is reported from Cuba by Drs. A.
Castellanos and J. Beato-Nunez,
Havana, in the BuDetin of the Cuban Society of Pediatrics.
The patient takes fruits or fruit juices instead of breakfast. A smafl
quantity of blood is withdrawn. Then
an injection of coDoidal carotene is
injected into the veins, the amount injected depending on the weight
of the individual. Five minutes later blood is again withdrawn. The
amount of total-, carotenoids in the blood is separately determined in the
two different blood specimens. If
the specimen of blood withdrawn five minutes after the carotene-is taken
is the same as the blood withdrawn before the csirotene was taken, it
shows that the Dver is normal, doing
its work properly. Any increase of
the carotene in the blood five min
utes after the injection into the veins
of the carotene shows that the Dver is not doing its work properly.
These physicians found that this
simple test is as reDable and better
than the “classic” tests now in use.
Rheumatic Fever
Foe of Children
There is a disease of children that destroys seven times as many children as infantile paralysis, and
it seems only fair that we should know about these children and what pubflc and private help be given
them. I am referring to rheumatic heart disease.
Dr. Alexander T. Martin, New
York city, in the Journal of the American Medical Association, says:
“In one sense the child stricken
with infantile paralysis is more for
tunate than the child stricken by rheumatism, because the child with
rheumatic heart disease, may have
more attacks which may further
cripple his activities or even cause
death. In fact, each fresh attack means the likelihood of further at
tacks. On the other hand, infantile paralysis, as dread a disease as it
is, usuafly causes no further at
tacks and the Eifflicted child may expect some improvement. Many chil
dren who contract infantile paralysis recover completely. Very few
children who contract rheumatic fe
ver escape without some damage to the heart.”
How can-these crippled hearts be helped? Dr. Martin reports his in
vestigation over a period of 20 years (1921-41) of 1,398 children with rheumatic heart disease who were given
after care in three country homes. The average age of the first attack
was from six to eight years.
Of this 1,398 children 431 were dead
after 20 years. Of the 967 Dving Dr. Martin was able to foDow about 90 per cent
To show what watchful care in an institution or' in a. foster home can accompDsb for these heart crip
ples the report states that 357 are regularly employed at gainful occupations, 10 have, irregular employ
ment, 260 are in a regular or public school, 83 are in a special class in
school for heart patients and 14 have a visiting teacher.• • •

ISW YORK.—A veteran watch-
•*-’’Tman of sea lanes assumes com
mand of the vast South Pacific area
for the Allied Nations, just at a time
. • • w m , when J a- Admiral Ghormley pan>s south-
*N ever Leaves a ward limge
Loose End Aboutr m a^es tra“ ‘ port possibly
the crucial issue of the Pacific war.
For his success in keeping men and goods moving across the Atlantic in
the World war, Vice Admiral Rob
ert Lee Ghormley was rewarded
with the Distinguished Service medal.
At 58, he takes on a far-flung area of land and sea, including many
vital bases, fighting not only for sea-way for the U.S.A. but for New
Zealand, Australia and the Free
French. His command covers all land, sea and air forces of the four
nations. He will be responsible to Adm. Chester W. Nimitz, command
er in chief of the United States Pacific fleet.
Admiral Ghormley is known to navy officers as “thoroughly dependable,” rather than picturesque or
showy. One of iiis shipmates of the first World war, recently said to this writer:
“He is a good tactician, and
a hard plugger, with a patient mastery of detail. He's always
wide awake and if he were a
hockey player he’d be a crack
goal keeper. He had a tongh,
lonesome job, gaarding overseas transport in the first World war,
and carried it through perfectly,
with big results and little glory. He keeps his mind strictly on his work.”
Admiral Ghormley was bom in
Portland, Ore., and took an academic degree at the University of
Idaho. He was graduated from An
napolis in 1906. He commanded the
Nicaraguan naval operations and his decorations include the Nicaraguan
Campaign badge and the Victory
medal.He was made assistant chief of
naval operations in 1936 and held that post until relieved of this duty
on August 9, 1940, when he was sent to London as a special naval observ
er for the American embassy. On April 22, 1942, he was ordered to
Auckland to organize joint naval operations with New Zealand. He be
came a vice admiral on September 20, 1941. •----
T NDUSTRY and government, it would appear, have been keen
competitors for the services of Mrs. Anna Rosenberg. Industry, for the
_ moment, isDexterously She fo the lead,
Juggles Federal paying her
AndPrivateJobs $22,500 ayear, while
the government gets a cut of only
$13,500 in her hectic working year.
She keeps them both at arm’s length
and attends to the most deserving.She weighs in at 112 pounds, desk
side. She comes through a hard
working day with all the frills and
ruffies of her exiguous person still
fresh and in place.
The house appropriations commit
tee lights up Mrs. Rosenberg’s manifold activities and jobs in exploring
doubles in federal jobs, along with private employment. As regional
director for the social security
board, she receives $7,500 a year
and her salary as a consultant on the staff of Nelson Rockefeller, co
ordinator of American affairs, nets
her $6,000 a year.
In 1914, the girl from Buda
pest, here with her parents at
the age of 14, settled a strike.In the Wadleigh high school,
which she - attended, students struck against compulsory mili
tary training. She called a stu
dent meeting and made an im
passioned speech which ended the strike and got her considera
ble newspaper attention. She sras Anna Lederer then. When re entered the war, she left
high school to sell Liberty bonds and Thrift stamps. In 1919, she
married Juliifs Rosenberg, now .. a rug merchant.
Even then she was plagued by de
mands for her services. She stud
ied practical politics with Belle Mos- kowitz, political ally and mentor of
Alfred E. Smith. This association led to fund-raising and organizing
work for philanthropies, widening into a broad field of trouble-shooting in industrial and social welfare is
sues.
“Yes, FiIiiI, John was on the phone a few minutes ago and he said you
were a so-and-so. He is, too? Listen, I’ll get up a nice little dinner
and get you two together.”That is a fair sample of her work-
a-day telephone talk. She has
worked almost entirely in the no-
man’s land between the warring forces of industry and labor, and be-'
tween one or both and government. She is a wisp of a woman, a five-
foot three brunette to give exact specifications, always nicely tail
ored, with a penchant for plenty of feminine fixings. /

Lesson for June 7

FRIDAY: THE DAY OF
SUFFERING (H)
LESSON TEXT—Luke 23:33-46; Mark 15:
33, 34.GOLDEN TEXT—But be was wounded for
our transgressions, he was bruised for our
iniquities:' the chastisement of our peace
was upon him; and with his stripes we are
healed.—Isaiah 53:6.
Marguerite Chapman was a mem
ber of the Navy Blues Sextette before Columbia upped her into the big
time last January. Now another member of it, Lorraine Gettman,
steps out. Re - christened Leslie
Brooks, she’s been given a long
term contract by the company, as the result of her outstanding work in
a supporting role in “Talk of the
Town,” co-starring Jean Arthur,
Cary Grant and Ronald Colman.

The route tint led Jack Trent into
the movies is a curious one. Formerly a Montana schoolteacher, he
became Shirley Temple’s body
guard, and wound up as an actor;
you’ll see him in “Silver Queen,”
the 1870 drama starring Priscilla
Lane and George Brent.— *—
No one has viewed C. B. De-
Mille’s “Reap the Wild Wind” with
more interest than did Rear Admiral William D. Leahy, U. S. am
bassador to France. The Technicolor sea saga, starring Ray Mil-
land, John Wayne and Paulette Goddard, deals with America’s fight to
wipe out a nest of pirate wreckers in the Florida keys years ago. Lea
hy wrote DeMille that he “got the
last of those wreckers” back in the
year 1905.
Ransom Sherman finally has dis
covered the haunt where Dix Davis,
13-year-old who plays “Stanley,” the bellhop, spends the half hour before
broadcast time. It’s -the Shirley
Temple studio, across the hall—he
just stands there and worships from afar.— *—
Ann Miller’s been saying, that she
was 18 ever since she was 12. Tall
for her age, she did it then to keep the prize—two weeks’ work as a
stage attraction—at the Orpheum theater. At 14 she danced—and
fibbed—her way into a night club engagement in San Francisco. That
year RKO signed her up, then Columbia borrowed her; at 16, and
still saying she was 18—she landed on Broadway. RKO again, Colum
bia again — then Paramount, for “True to the Army.” On April 12
of this year she celebrated her 19th birthday, on the "Priorities of 1942”
set.
Now that the “Are You a Missing
Heir” radio program has restored its millionth dollar to rightful lega
tees, you’d think the program executives would sit back and relax, but
-there are still 77 million un
claimed dollars buried in probate court records as a goal for the pro
gram to shoot at.

Dark and distressing days nave
often come uppn the earth, but the darkest day of all history was that
day when cruel men with wicked hearts laid unholy hands upon the
Son of God and crucified Him. And
yet, by the grace of God, it was a day
of bright hope for the sinful sons of
men, for on that day complete re
demption was wrought out. The
veil was i*ei)t and the new and living
way into the holy presence of God
(Heb. 10:20) was opened for you
and for me.
The cross is popular as an ornament on a church or on a golden
chain, but it is far more than that. It speaks of the black hour of the
Saviour’s cry, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” and
it also tells us of the One who be
came sin for us that we might know
the righteousness of God (II Cor. 5:21).
Three thoughts emerge from our
lesson.
I. Crucifixion >- Bringing Lifq
(Luke 23:33, 34a).
“There they crucified him”—four
words summing up the almost un
believable thing that took place on
Calvary. He died; but in that death life and immortality were brought
to Ught (II Tim. 1:10).
As believers in Christ, we are in
terested in all that took place at the crucifixion, for we know that
as we contemplate Him on the cross
we can say with Luther, “For me,
for me!” And yet it was not for us alone that He died—it was for all
mankind. So we turn to our un
converted friends and direct them to
“the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world” (John I:
29). He was crucified that they might Uve eternally. He who had
only a plea for the forgiveness of
His persecutors (v. 34a) tenderly of
fers His forgiveness to men today.
H. Rejection—Bringing Acceptance (Luke 23:34b-43).
Those who appear around the
cross afford an interesting and strik
ing picture of humanity. There
were the indifferent ones, those not
interested at aU in who was being crucified, but only eager to share
in the division of His garments.
There stood the people “beholding”—perplexed, unable to beUeve
that the miracle-working Christ was about to die. Verily, they were as
sheep without a shepherd.
Then we see those who scoffed. They knew His claim to be the Son
of God and hated Him for it. Now at last they had their chance to raU at Him, to ridicule and taunt. More
ignorant and yet equaUy derisive, we see the mocking soldiers.
Even one of the thieves by His
side “railed on him” (v. 39), ridi
culing His claim. But here is the
marvelous thing—the other thief, rough and wicked person that he
was, saw in Christ a Saviour to
whom he turned in faith, which was quickly and fuUy honored (w. 42, 43).
The picture is thus complete. The Rejected One is “the way” to ac
ceptance for aU who believe (John
14:6). He said, “I am the door: by
me if any man enter in, he shaU be saved” (John 10:9).
□I. Darkness — Bringing Light
(Luke 23:44, 45; Mark 15:33, 34).
Physical darkness feU over the
scene at the cross, as though aU nature would go into* mourning, or
sought to shield the suffering Sa
viour from the curious and hateful
eyes of men. Then, too, it was God’s sign that this was not the death of
any ordinary man, even as it spoke
of the judgment of those who had laid violent, sinful hands on His Son.
But deeper yet was the spiritual
darkness into which Jesus went, as bearing the horrible load of the
sins of the world He “was made sin for us” (II Cor. 5:21), and God
the Father turned away from Him. We cannot fathom the full meaning
of that hour, aiid we dare nc.t at
tempt to explain it. We can only
accept it and thank God that be
cause He was made sin for us we may by faith be "made the right
eousness of God in him.”
Out of the darkness of that hour shone forth the one light which
nothing in time or eternity can dim.
Route to HappinessThe truest and happiest of earthly
lives, proven over and over again by
hard actual experience, is that life
which accepts and observes most
nearly St. Paul’s great postulate,
“Here have we no continuing city,
but we seek one to come.” Right
fully pursued, it in no way inter*
feres with the intensest enjoyment
of our time here on earth. We have
but to see that we do God’s will in everything.

Slacks Gain in Popularity
For Work and Leisure Wear
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
\
EVERYWHERE women are feel- ■*-' ing an urge within to be prac
tical-minded in regard to “clothes.” Entering new fields of work as so
many are during these strenuous times, taking up new and arduous
jobs for the first time, women are not waiting for fashion to tell them
what to wear, but spontaneously
they have adopted well-tailored slacks and slacks suits as the prac
tical thing for voluntary defense work, for factory work, for defense
farming and gardening, for first aid
and for the endless list of patriotic activities now going on at high
speed.Not that the enthusiasm for slacks
ends with the utility aspect of the what-to-wear question, for there’s
just as much excitement .going on in regard to slacks costumes to wear
in off-duty hours spent in leisure and relaxation, or in active sports.
As a result of this unanimous demand for women’s slacks for every
day wear as well as for leisure moments, designers have rushed to pro
duce a larger and more varied collection of attractive styles than ever before in both costumes and “sep
arates.” An excitingly wide range of attractive fabrics especially de
signed for these costumes has ap
peared in fine rayon constructions which offer style, beauty and wear
ing quality at prices to suit any
woman’s budget and requirements.
Spun rayon reproductions of clas
sic linen, silk, wool and worsted constructions are more interesting
than ever this season. In the popular price range, slacks and slacks
suits appear frequently in spun rayon fabrics of the’ linen, shan
tung and gabardine types, as well as smart covert, hopsacking, flannel and fine-wale corduroy interpo
lations. For heavy manual labor in factories, denim made to withstand
wear and tear scores high. This serviceable never-wear-out material
comes in several smart colors in addition to the traditional blue.The vogue for bright shirts with
neutral slacks has inspired the smart combination done in fine- tailored spun rayon shown at the low
er left in the above illustration. The slacks in light beige are full-cut.
The full-sleeved windbreaker blouse in a lighter-weight version of the same material is gaily plaided in
rose, green and beige. Other costumes use contrasting shirts in spun
rayons or challis or jersey types.
Careful tailoring distinguishes the easy-to-wear slacks suit shown in
the foreground on the seated figure. It is in a fine linen-type spun rayqn
which tailors beautifully and is both cool and practical. The straight-cut slacks are topped by a matching
short-sleeved shirt which can be worn as a tuck-in blouse or as a flattering hiplength jacket.
As smart and comfortable on a defense job as it is at a summer resort the attractive slacks costume
at the top left in the above illustration follows the fashion by teaming
contrasting colors of the same fabric. EMne spun rayon in a chic linen weave is used In red-striped beige
of the same material are in deep
blue.New this season are tapered slacks. Many women with slim figures are adopting them for the sake'
of streamlined flattery. In addition
to the more utilitarian styles the
tapered slacks are being made in fine spun rayon acetate twills, in
acetate rayon sharkskins and also in wrinkle-resistant alpaca weaves.
These are designed for leisure wear after the manner shown at the top
right in the above picture. Here the blouse of snowy acetate rayon crepe
reflects the South American gaucho
influence in its ruffled front. Wom with slim-lined slacks of sooty black
novelty-textured rayon shantung and a bright red cummerbund the costume is picturesque and flatter
ing.(Released Iqr Western Newspaper Union.)
Smartly Checked
Fashion’s fancy is turning .to
checks and plaids with renewed enthusiasm this season. Unless you
have a coat or a dress or a blouse or
a suit of checked material in your
summer wardrobe, you are losing out in “style." There , are new cot
tons in wool-like textures that make
up beautifully in suits that launder perfectly. The new checked rayon
crepes, such -as fashion the suit pic
tured above, are ever so goodlook-
ing and very much in demand. A monotone blouse that picks up the
color in thie check and the band trimming on the jacket add interest to this smart outfit. Very style-
correct is the sailor hat which carries the color of the check in its
bow trim and flattering veil.
Pique IVdakes Lovely
Graduation Dresses
It’s time to begin to think of a graduating dress which will lsiter on
serve happily for general summer wear. Designers are solving the problem by using eyelet pique. It
is cool, it is pretty as can b$ it latmders marvelously and all the
summer through it will most likely
prove your favorite dress. One designer does the clever thing by sup
plying two sets of buttons for variety’s sake—white for graduation day
and red plastic strawberries for a
vivid accent later on in the sum
mer.A white marquisette gown over a rayon taffeta slip is suggested for formal graduation and for summer
dancing in the months to come. A
yoke trimming and bows here and there on the skirt of embroidered
organdie banding bring an added note of charm into the picture.
Practical and lovely is a simply fashioned dress of sleek white jer
sey either left ail white or enlivened with vivid embroidery touches.

Brims are made to flatter this sea
son. Designers are imparting sof
tening effects in the way of ruffles of ribbon'or lace that make a wide brim still wider. Some of these
parasol brims are convertible into any style you want them to be. You wear the parasol''brim as a face- framing bonnet, or you can flip it back to halo about your pompadour
in daring off-the-face fashion.
' The newest models have crocheted crowns. Large straw cartwheels are definitely good style for summer.

Commencement Time
There’s a last-minute flurry of
hair brushing and straightening of ties as Jane and Billy get ready
for their graduation exercises.
Yes, this is really the year the
children are getting through with
school. Ifs hard to believe, isn’t
it? It seems like just yesterday that they started school!
Your role is that of sitting back and beaming at their accomplish
ments, but, just as important, providing the children with a party and refreshments after commencement.
Simplest way of taking care ..of
refreshments is setting up a table in the porch or dining room. Then fill this with assorted breads and
cold cuts, add a few relishes for good measure, and you have the makings of a successful party. The
informality .of this setting will please the children, and at the same time
relieve you of extra serving. Let the children help themselves and
take their own time about it, for there will be plenty of conversation to go with refreshment time.
Provide white, whole wheat and rye bread so there will be variety
from which to choose. It’s smart
to have this already sliced for the youngsters and it looks better on the
table.The meat platter provides an attractive assortment of sandwich fill
er. Arrange in clockwise fashion, the following: chicken pattie, cooked
tongue, meat loaf and liverwurst. You can let the imagination of your
guests run freely with making their own sandwiches, but in case they
run out of ideas, you might suggest
some of these:Chicken pattie and boiled ham
with sweet pickle relish and lettuce
on-whole wheat bread.
. Meat loaf with tomato ketchup on white bread.
Liverwurst and. chicken Ioat on whole wheat bread.
Tongue and sliced cucumbers with horseradish and mustard on rye
bread.Balance the sandwich' spread with
a salad of some kind. If the young
sters are boys, they will go for slices of tomato on lettuce. For girls or
a mixed group, a molded fruit salad will be tops: •

Lynn Says:
Did you know that it is perfectly proper to wash the American
Flag? Of course, you know it is disrespectful to display a badly
soiled one, but perhaps you were a bit worried about trying to
wash it.A recent survey made by pro
fessional laundries reveals that flags made of woolen material
should be washed and rinsed as other woolens: squeeze the flag
through rich suds whipped up with a mild soap and warm, softened water of nofmore than 100
degrees Fahrenheit. Rinse in two
or three changes of lukewarm,
soft water.Cotton flags should be. rubbed
lightly, but only lukewarm soft water should be used for the suds.
Bofli wool and cotton flags should bis air-dried.
Textile experts at professional laundries also point out that flags raised outdoors naturally deteri
orate more quickly than those displayed indoors. If a flag laun
ders well, its service period is
increased with frequent washing.

Prayer And FaiA
Rev. Walter E.'Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C.
“Jesus said unto him,- If thou
canst believe, all things are possible
to him that beluveth”—Mark, 9:23.
Prayer and faith go together.
Prayer is worth little without faith,
and faith is worth little without
prayer. The Scriptuaes teach it.
Our experiences through the years,
as the people of God, likewise'con
firm this statement. It is vitally
necessary to pray, and it is vitally
necessary to have faith in God and
His divine Word when we pray.
We should live so we can ask of
God, and then have faith so we
can receive.
There is a story connected with
our text which is of interest. A
man brought his son to Jesus that
he might v be healed. He had a
dumb spirit,, or something similar
to fits perhaps. He would tall in
to the fire and into the water when
seized with a fit. This father had
first taken his son to the disciples
for help, but they failed to cast out
the evil spirit. Then the father
earnestly besought Jesds- to cast
him out. When Jesus had spoken
the words of tbe text the distressed
man cried out, “Lord, I believe;
help thou mine unbelief.”
We believe many people would
do well today to pray the same
prayer. They believe, and yet they
doubt. They have some faith, but
they don’t have enough. It is mix
ed with doubts. May God have
mercy on tbeir unbelief, deal with
that, and change it to faith Per
haps some people who pray have
more unbelief than they have faith.
They need to pray about ‘it. God
can help one's unbelief. We can
change it to faith that is effectual.
God had compassion on this poor
father and healed his son. He got
results by coming humblv and sin
cerely to Jesus. His request was
granted And that is exactly what
God can do for us. How we need
to pray and believe! The prayer
of faith accomplishes something
worth while. - It may change the
lives of friends and loved ones, sis
ters and brothers, friends and nei
ghbors and enemies. It may mean
the conviction and conversion of
sinners, the reclamation of back,
sliders and the sanctification of be
lievers. et may mean the healing
of the sick, the restoratioh of health
to the afflicted, etc. It may mean
the complete change of sinful men
into Christians, the wicked home
made into a home of Christianity,
love, peace and happiness. It may
mean burdens lifted,, crosses light
ened, trials and persecutions endur
ed, and wonderful victory brought
out of defeat. Peayer and faith
change things.
But wthy could not the disciples
cast the evil spirit out of tbe boy?
They prayed no doubt. Petbaps
they also had some faith. But let
me call your attention to the fact
that something else sometimes goes
with prayer and faith, or must go
with it, before we can see results.
We must fast. “And when he was
come into the house, his disciples
asked him privately, WhycOuld we
not cast him out? And he said un
to them. This kind can come forth
by nothing, but by prayer and ,fast
ing.” Fasting must sometimes ac
company prayer and faith. It goes
together.
No doubt many people pray for
things they fail to get for tbe rea
son that they lack faith, and may
be feast rather than fast along with
tbeir prayers. Great prayers have
been great believers, and have con
nected with their prayers and faith
tasting. But it is marvelous %hat
God can do for those Who really
and sincerely pray and believe.-
It praying and believing it is
great to get some promise from
God’s holy Word and stand upon
that too, and to plead the blood of
Newell Replies To
Harden.
Junius H Harden, well known
business man of Burlington, who
came so near being elected to Con
gress on the Republican ticket sev<
eral years ago, recently decided to
leave the Republican' party to unite
with the Democrats. In writing to
Jake F. Newell, of Charlotte, state
chairman, tbe Burlington man gave
that as his reason for not being able
serve on on? of the convention com
mittees.
The reply of Mi. Newell was one
of the Newell classics and is as fol
lows:
Hon. Junius Harden,
Burlington, N. C.
Dear Old Comrade-In-Arms:—
Your letter of May 14, apprising
me of the fact that you had joined
the Democrotic party and, there
fore, could not accept membership
on the resolutions committee
for the State Republican conven
tion at Greensboro next Monday,
to which I had named you, has
been received.
When I received your letter,
memory carried me back to many
hard-fought fields on which we had
marched sboulder-to-shoulder. I
thought of our battles for freedom
and of how we had been inspired
by the portrait of Lincoln and his
speech at Gettysburg. I read your
letter again, and then felt as Na
poleon surely would have felt had
he received a letter from Masbel
Nev saying he had joined tbe army
of Wellington.
But my affection for you has been
long and too sincere to permit- me
to criticise you now. I havefought
too long in the phalanx of freedom,
with victory deferred, to allow me
to deny freed, m to you., ; Qn the
other hand, I shall miss jEWt'in the
heat of battle and at tbe;o.cot|ncil
table; and the vacant chair 'will
pierce my heart as with an arrow’s
wound. I wish you ^ell in the
ranks to which you have' transfer
red your loyalty..
For myself, I shall fight on for
the freedom 6f the individual and
the several states. I shall do What
I can to achieve total victory over
the organized and scientifically arm
ed brutality that threatens the civi
lization of the worid. And after
that victory has been won, I shall
still fight, here at home, to re-es
tablish, maintain and preserve a
free government under law, with
our constitutional guarantees a-,
gainst treason and tyranny, as con
ceived by the great Americans who
have gone on before.
This said, I bid you an affection*
ate adietr.
Your friend,
- JAKE F. NEWELL.

Roosevelt has been telling us that
oiir economic troubles of 1915 to
1929 are due to the mismanagement
of Harding, Coolidge and Hoover.
Now he tells us that conditions are
“frightfully similar” to those of
1915. There can be hardly any
doubt as to whose fault it was this
time.
In a recent IettertotUeSecretary

Young Men To Register

Washington — President Roose
velt summoned about 3,000,000 of
America’s young men to register on

Tbe bureau of research and statis
tics of the federal security agency
estimated that as of April I there
were 2,483,000 men In that age
bracket, while probably 500,000
who have turned 20 also will re
gister on June 30.

Ius in the mass production of ships
wotdd appear when needed. Here
he is, in the business less than three years, and now outstripping all
others.
He is quoted today as having said he coidd build 9,000,000 tons of ship
ping next year. Contracts for 674 out of the 1,073 ships ordered by the maritime commission under the Lib
erty program up to February 1, 1942, went to his firm.
Mr. Kaiser was a demon road,
bridge and dam builder who turned to shipbuilding as a side
line at the age of 58. Taking on
some big contracts for the long over-dne fortification of Pearl Harbor and Gnam, he bought
two old freighters to carry bulk cement. He towed them to the
Todd shipyards for repairs and there combined his organization
and working forces with the Todd shipbuilding interests. The
combine swelled quickly into seven big West coast plants,
with an array of tributary com
panies, rising to a tremendous
momentum at this moment and still on the nptake.
He devised, among other new
techniques, the Kaiser process, by
which ships are built in a concrete chamber, allowing men to work both above and below. Completing the
ship, they flood the drydock and the ship is floated out.
Two years ago when 6,000 tons of
magnesium were being produc.d each year under patents held by a German cartel, Mr. Kaiser heard
of an Austrian scientist, Dr. P. J. Hansgirg, who had a novel process,
and he also learned of large deposits of low grade ore in Nevada. He brought the scientist and the ore to
gether, built a big plant near San Jose, Calif., and in a short time was
producing magnesium at the rate of
20,000 tons a year.
He is a whirlwind of energy on the job, frequently on the airways
between his vast plants at Rich
mond, Calif., Los Angeles and Port
land, Ore.

She is now ready to go to press with her SOth novel, "The Breath of
Life,” a record better than one novel for each year of her life, and, ap
parently an ambidextrous writer, she’s doing a lot of straightline pro
duction for Archibald MacLeish’s big wartime word mill.
In the first World war, women
gave pie and doughnuts to departing soldiers, danced with them at benefit balls, and helped brighten
up the YMCA. Miss Baldwin has
been dubious about. such wartime activities for busy women and has
indicated that Utings are different, and should be, in this war. In view of the current urgency and interest
in women’s war effort, we told Miss Baldwin she could have space here
for her views on this subject. She writes:
'1Everyone wants to help in
the war effort. Everyone is trying and sometimes chaos and
confusion reign, often, I think, because people try to do things
for which they are not fitted. Some of us won’t ever qualify- as
first-aiders and air raid wardens.
“It seems to me that it is a good idea to find out what you can do
best and then do it. I believe that the function of a writer in wartime
is to urrite-those of us who cannot
carry guns or man ships. Writing is easily adapted to the war effort,
to propaganda and the selling of war bonds, the supporting of our various relief' organizations. And to
entertain. Reading is entertau. Jt and escape and it is no aspersion on
one’s patriotism if it is indulged in, now and then.”
In private lifas Miss Baldwin is Mrs. Hugh Cuthrell, a resident of
Brooklyn-for many years, until her purchase of a colonial homestead near New Canaan, Conn., several
years ago. Several of her books have found screen versions and her earnings have run as high as $300,-
000 a year. She is small, big-eyed, smart and alert and, working in her
“boiler factory” as she calls her
home workshop always seems to
have time to, do a little bit more. With all her added war work, she.
manages to get about a lot and

CHICAGO.—June dairy month
brings a picture of 26,000,000
cows on nearly'5,000,000 farms
in the United States, each per-
fOtming an important function
in winning the war. Quietly at
work in the barns and on the
pastures from Maine to Cali
fornia and from the Canadian
border to the Gulf, these 26,000,-
OOO animals are daily producing
a third of a billion pounds of
milk.
That means an average pro
duction of 166,666 tons of milk
every day in the year. If placed
in: ten gallon cans, 3,921,569 cans
would be required to hold an av
erage day’s milk production in
the United States. Thisisenough
milk to-fill 6,666 big 23-ton tank cars.
If these were all put together in one big milk train, we would have each
morning a train of 25-ton milk tank
cars 57 miles long.
The flow of this life-giving stream
of food rated by nutritionists as the
No. I protective food is of vital importance to our nation at all
times, but especially so this year. The Allied nations and the soldiers
of the United States must have milk and its products. Factory and munition workers have greater need
than ever for milk and milk prod
ucts. Office workers, housewives,
school children and all other classes
of the American population are coming to realize, as never before, their
need for greater quantities of these
vital foods in order to keep America
strong by making Americans stronger.
Dairy Program.
Today the National Dairy Council
program, which the industry has
sponsored for 23 years, is finding
new recognition and new support. A national nutrition program is ex
panding .and materially strengthening the realization of the fact that
good nutrition is necessary to opti
mum health, vigor and vitality. This
national nutrition, program has been in operation for more than a year.
Just how are these 26 million cows
and those responsible for the product meeting this challenge and this
-opportunity?
We need not wait for that answer. Those “bossies” and their masters
are meeting the challenge. Starting with an average production of 104
billion pounds of milk during the years 1935 to 1939; there was 111
billion pounds of milk produced in 1940; 115 billion 500 million pounds of milk in 1941, and the production
for 1942 is estimated at not less than
120 billion pounds of milk to be pro
duced in the United States. In other
words, for each and every day of
the year, including Sundays and hol
idays, there is being produced more than 44,000,000 pounds of milk, over
that of five years ago. That is the equivalent of a fully’ loaded milk
train of 50,000 pound capacity cars, 7% miles long over and above their
normal production.
Terrific Handling Problem.
Stated in terms of ten gallon milk
cans, if these were filled and placed
side by side, we would find that we had every month a line of filled milk cans 3..150 miles long over and above
the amount of milk that was produced ui this country in the same
period during the preceding five- year period. Producmg such a vol-

Souftec-USl DcptrtAent of Agriculture
As its contribution to feeding the democracies, the dairy industry of
the United States has increased its production from 1935 to 1939 by nearly
15,000,609 ten-gallon cans of milk—enough cans to make a row from Los
Angeles to New Fork.
ume of milk in Addition to the regular supply is no easy task. Just the
job of hauling milk to fill 716 miles of 50,000 pound capacity tank cars
from the farm to the milk station or dairy plant each morning, is
enough to stagger the imagination of the average individual, but that
is simply a little “before breakfast
chore” as compared with the extra effort necessary to raise the feed,
do the additional milking and cool
and care for that extra 7%-mile milk train load of milk each morn
ing.Dry Milk Solids.
For many years, the cream from
about 45 billion pounds of milk each year has been used for the manufacture of butter, including both the
factory and the farm-made product.
Milk made the - difference—both
dogs had the same food, but the larger one received a daily milk
ration.
Of this, about 30 billion pounds of
milk have been farm separated with
the remaining skimmed milk being
kept on the farms for feed for calves, pigs and chickens. One of
the severe readjustments which the
industry has been called upon to make in order to furnish sufficient
dry milk powder to the United Na-i tions has been to shift from farm separation of much of this milk to
the delivery of whole milk.Manufacture of dry milk solids is
gaining rapidly and in March reached an all-time high of 49,800,- 000 pounds. While the speeding up
of the manufacture of dry milk solids has necessarily been delayed
longer than seemed desirable on account of the vast amount of changes
in practice necessary, both on the
farms and in the plants; yet, it is now gaining momentum rapidly.
Production today is approximately 120 per cent of 1941.
The three states of Wisconsin, New Tork and California produce
more than one-half of all the dry milk solids in the country at the'
present time. Other states impor-
A dairy cow weighing 1,000 pounds (providing she maintains her weight and produces 7,605 pounds of milk a year) eats approximately the
following amounts of feed in one year: two acres of rich pasturage in five months of summer; 6,300 pounds of silage and 2,730 pounds of
«n.it« hay during Die seven remaining months; and 1,700 pounds of
grain throughout the entire 12 months.

Long regarded as the “all Ameri
can" dessert, ice cream is rapidly coming to be recognized not only as
an economical food, but since it also
contains all of the ingredients of
milk, as one of the best protective foods. Within the past eight years,
consumption has risen from about
4% quarts per person per year to over 10 % quarts per person per year
in 1941. That figure is rising rapidly.
Ice cream takes the output of nearly
one million cows.
Li the manufacture of ice cream,
Pennsylvania leads the nation close
ly followed Iqr New York. These two states produce more than one- fourth of all the ice cream in the
United States. Illinois, Ohio, California, Michigan, Massachusetts,
Texas, Wisconsin, Indiana, Missouri,
Minnesota, New Jersey, Iowa and
Maryland follow in the order of this
productive importance.
tant in the manufacture of dry milk solids are Minnesota, Michigan,
Ohio, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Idaho and Vermont, in the order named.
The increase in the manufacture of dry milk solids has forced se
vere changes in both farm management practice and in the opera
tion of butter factories. Farmers
have had to adjust their operations to new methods of feeding. Cream
eries have been obliged to put in new equipment, to train new personnel and to re-vamp their operat
ing and merchandising plans. This is in addition to another difficult
problem which the butter making
industry must face every year and that is, the varying seasonal production. Diuing the year 1940 to 1941
butter manufacture varied by months from a low of 115 million 700 thousand pounds in November
to a high of 205 million 300 thousand
pounds in June.
North Central States.
Most of these changes have been brought about in the North Central
states where butter production is
the heaviest—Minnesota, Iowa and
Wisconsin rank first, second andthird in the order named as the “big
three” in the butter industry in the United States. After that come
Michigan, Nebraska, Missouri, Illi
nois, Ohio, Kansas, Indiana, Cali
fornia, North Dakota, Oklahoma,South Dakota and Washington.
These 15 states produce more than
85 per cent of all the butter made in
the United States.Cheese is another important dairy
product, the manufacture of which has been materially affected by cur
rent conditions. Largely as the re- , suit of the war and the demand for
American cheese abroad, production of this product has been stepped up
enormously. The government request in March, 1941, for 250 million pounds of cheese amounted to an
urging, on its part, for almost 50 per cent increase in production. The in
dustry has met that request and' more. Nearly 300 million pounds of cheese had been provided for “lend-
lease” purchases from March 15, 1941, to April I, 1942. Cheese pro
duction is now running about 150 per cent as much, as a year ago.
Cheese is a product containing
practically ail the ingredients of
fluid milk, and as such, it is one of the first on the protective list of
foods. Its value-and its importance are gaining recognition rapidly. In
the production of cheese, Wisconsin
alone produces more than half of all
the cheese in the United States. Following Wisconsin are New York, Illi
nois, Indiana, Oregon, Ohio, Missouri, Texas, Michigan and Min
nesota in the order of their importance.
Evaporated Milk lndustry.
War conditions have had an equal
ly important ’ bearing on the evaporated. milk industry. To fill the de
mand for a concentrated milk prod
uct for the United Nations, the government asked for a step-up in pro
duction sufficient to supply 25 million additional cases of. evaporated milk. This called for an increase of
more than 50 per cent in manufacture. It called dor changes in farm
management plans, for adjustments in evaporating plant operations,-for the training of personnel and for
shifts of merchandising methods fully equal to those the cheese in
dustry met. Here again the goal
was equalled and more. Approximately 30 million cases of evaporat
ed milk has been furnished for “lease-lend” operations. Li this in
dustry, too, Wisconsin leads with almost 30 per cent of. all the evaporat
ed milk production in the United States. Ohio, California, New Yorit,
Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Indiana,
Washington and Pennsylvania follow in fiie order named.
During June! hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth-of, publicity
in newspapers and trade publications, in food and drug stores, ,ra
dio programs, publicity stunts, advertising material .at point-of-sale, soda fountains, as well as education
al programs, combine under the .lead
ership of file National Dairy council
.with the efforts of nutritional authorities to make of this the most gi
gantic effort to bring home to all
people the realization of the need of
better health and the place of milk and its. products in achieving that
goal. _

AILING HOUSE
By ROGER ■! WHITMAN
Baser B. Whitman—WMU Features.
HOUSE HEATEBS SHOULD BE
OVERHAULED NOW
•T' HIS is a good time of year for a
a home owner to overhaul his heating system in the light of troubles
that he has had with it in the previous winter; uneven distribution of heat, excess fuel consumption, etc;
First, he should make sure that the chimney is in good condition and that the flue is clean. The heater
itself should be' gone over and cleaned thoroughly. All open joints
by wluch air can enter should be
closed! for these will interfere with the draft and cause waste of fuel.
Leaks may be around warped doors and dampers, or between the bottom
of the heater and the floor. If there had been dust in the house from a
hot air fuhiace, the fault is likely to
be in open joints between the sec
tions. These joints should be closed with a special cement that with
stands high temperatures. Even the best cement will not last longer
than five years, however, and in
cracking will permit smoke and dust to enter the air passages. A hot water house heater-that is slow in
heating, or that heats unevenly, can be greatly improved by adding a
circulating pump to operate automatically. A steam heating plant
can be improved by replacing, the
old radiator air valves with a mod
ern adjustable kind, with which all radiators will heat at the same time.
The best move, of course, is to have
the plant inspected by a competent steamfitter, with the idea of putting
things into prime condition before
the coming cold weather.
Wet Foundation
Question: My foundations aremade of cobblestone with cement
blocks on top. In rains and thaws the blocks become wet and the cobblestones beneath them are soaked
through. Outside the wall the side
walk is graded, and gets drip from
the eaves. Is this the- cause of the dampness in the foundation wall?
Answer: Dampness in the founda
tion wall comes from the collecting of. water in the filled-in part of the
excavation outside of the wall. Your best remedy will be to lay drain
tile at the footings of the wall out
side to carry the water away to
some low point where it will dis
charge. You should also equip your roof with gutters and leaders.
Care of Floors
Question: How should new oak
floors be cared for? They have been waxed, but not stained. They turn
dark after washing them. -
Answer: A new floor should be given a varnish, shellac or similar
finish before being waxed, to prevent wax from soaking into the
wood. Without an undercoat, dirt will go through the wax and dis
color the wood. A hardwood floor should never be washed with^Water.
Dirt can be taken up by dry wiping.
When heavy dirt must be removed, take it up with a damp cloth, fol
lowed by wiping dry. A waxed floor can also be cleaned with liquid wax
—not water wax, which is to be used
only as a finish.
Mirror in Bathroom
Question: Will you tell me what kind of a back a mirror must have
to withstand steam, etc., in a bath
room? I have been told that any
kind of mirror would peel, and then again, that an enamel back would
give protection.
" Answer: The best type of mirror
for bathrooms and other purposes is one that is made with a copper-
plated back. A mirror with a paint
ed back may be serviceable if the
silvering is well coated, but for the small additional cost the copper- backed mirror will be far more sat
isfactory.
Sticky Varnish
Question: Woodwork in my house
is varnished, and I have had trouble with things sticking to it In my china closet, the lowest plate in a
stack must have warm waiter poured into it to loosen it. These things are very trying. How can they be
remedied?
Answer: The varnish apparently had too much oil in it. Ilie sticki
ness can be taken out by washing with turpentine, but as this will dull
the gloss, another coat of varnish will be needed. For this, use top
quality quick-drying varnish.
Wall Plaster
Question: Before replastering
should I remove all plaster that has become crystallized and mildewed?
When the plaster is applied directly to brick without lath to anchor it,
what type of plaster should be used for replacement?
Answer: It is not satisfactory to
apply plaster directly to brickwork, for it will be cold and is likely to
be damp. For best results, take
off the old plaster and put the new
plaster on lath on,furring strips -
Removing Wfax • Question: Doors of my kitchen
cupboard were'finished with a wood “sealer” and then waxed. They are
getting dark, and I would like to varnish them. But of course the
wax must first be removed.’ How
can this.be done?
Answer: Wipe liberally with turpentine.
Transparent Paste
Question: Will you give me the
formula ..for a transparent paste used in. securing prints to glass?Answer: A white shellac makes an
excellent cement for the purpose.

THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C.
ByARTHUR STRINGER w .n .u.servicl
CHAPTER I
“Lindy’s in!"
Cruger, at his desk, heard that
cry from a ground-worker passing
the open window. He smiled as he looked up from his time sheet. There
was always a note of triumph in the
call of the port boys when Lindy came in.
’ Cruger got up from his chair and crossed to the doorway, \ where the
sunlight fell flat against the river Elopes and proclaimed that spring Md come again to the North Coun
try- He stood there until he caught sight of his long-legged bush pilot
swinging up from the landing dock.Cruger went back to his desk and
his figure-stippled time sheets as the long legs strode into what was over-
generously known as the Administration Building of Norland Airways.
It was a place of plain boards and
tar paper, with only the two poles
of its radio antennae to crown it
with any passing sense of dignity.
Slade, when he stepped into the map-hung office, again made Cru
ger think of a panther, but this time it was a panther in a cage. He
seemed too big for the room.
"I’m glad you swung back early," said Cruger. "And I
want to tell you, first crack out
of the box, that we’re going to take the crepe off the door.” ~
"What does that mean?” ques
tioned Slade.
Cruger, instead of answering, took
up an official-looking envelope.“Before we begin,” he casually
observed, “you’d better give this the
once-over.” He surrendered the envelope. “You know what it is?”
“I’ve an idea,” said Slade, after
inspecting ’the insignia.
“You’re a quick jumper, aren’t you?” retorted Cruger, his eye on
the weathered young face that held
a touch of discontent somewhere.
Slade’s smile was wide yet noncommittal.
“They yelp for flyers,” he said,
"and while they’re yelping they turn
me down.” He got up from the safe and paced the narrow floor. “I must
be bad.”
Cruger’s shrug was a condoning
one.
"I’d say it’s because you’re good,'
he parried. “Good enough to be
needed right here on this northern
run. And those tin hats happen to know you hold a key position.”
Slade turned on him.“Did anyone in this outfit broad
cast that, just to block my enlistment?” was his indignant demand.
Again Cruger shrugged.
“Who are we to interfere with the
War Office? It ought to be - big enough to make its own decisions.”
But Slade didn’t seem to hear him.
“They hot-air about wanting men
who’re hard-trained and resourceful.
Well, I ought to ring in oh that. I've kept more than one lemon-crate up
when every law of aeronautics said it ought to be down.”
"You’re resourceful, all right,” acceded Cruger, “but you’d be in
dink with a broken heart after two weeks of army, rules.” •
“I’d learn,” said Slade, “along with the other leathernecks.”
“But they’d all move too slow for you,” contended Cruger.
“That fight doesn’t look slow to me. And I ought to be over there
while the show’s still on.”
Cruger smiled the smile of a man
with an extra shot in his locker. “There was a time,” he observed,
“when bush flying seemed to stack
pretty high with you.”
“But if you can’t get a little ex
citement in your day’s work,” Slade
was saying, “you may as well give
up. And you said, two weeks ago,
we’d have to.”
“Before we go into that,” retorted
Cruger, “we ought to check up on
the all-round dullness of this bush
run of ours. I s’pose there was no
exdtement in that mercy flight of
yours to Murray Bay when you picked up those two frozen huskies?
Or in finding your Flying Padre when he was stymied on' Lac de
Gras last winter with a busted pro
peller and a factor’s wife in labor
and delirious with Au all at once?” Slade had his own ,memories of
that event. But his smile remained
morose..
“She had her baby in the plane, four feet behind' me high-tailing it for the Fort Smith hospital,” he
acknowledged. “The nose-over on the lake ice gave Doc Morlock a
bad arm, so his girl Lyhn had to
get busy.”The softened note on the name
did not escape Cruger. But he let
Slade go on.“She knew what was needed, all
right. When we were swinging over
Lesser Slave Lake I heard that baby
give its first squawk.”
“But you saved two lives, didn’t
you? I suppose there wasn’t any ex
citement' in that?”
The shrill of the desk ’phone cut
off Slade's impending response. And
while Cruger answered the ’phone the man in the flyer’s jacket walked
to the window and looked out. Beyond the rough-boarded hangar and
the landing docks he could see the
friendly cluster of planes on the
Snyt.
IS
3
‘Tm glad you swung back early,'
the crepe off Uie door.”
But what held his eye the longest was the smaller blue monoplane
that looked faded and weathered and sadly the worse for wear. That,
he knew, was the plane of the Flying Padre, the mercy-flighter and
man of medicine who was some
times known as the Grenfell of the Outer Gulf. And in it the Padre’s
daughter had gone along as pilot
and helper. But never again, Slade
remembered, would the dear-eyed Lynn Morlock take over the con
trols while her tired father held
back the hand of Death two thou
sand feet above the lake-spangled
Barrens. That,' he surmised, was already a thing of the past.
Cruger, as he hung up his receiv
er, caught the passing look of rapt
ness in the Vildng blue eye.
"It’s just about as big a game, Lindy, as a man could get into,” he
said out of the silence. “It’s still as good as dog-fighting Messer-
schmitts. And we’re both going to stay in it.”Slade swung about and faced his
partner.
“That wasn’t the tune you were
singing two weeks ago.”Cruger’s laugh was slightly de
fiant.
“They had us backed against the
wall two weeks ago. I told you our shoestring was wearing thin and we
couldn’t buck the big companies an
other, month. ButNorlandAirways is going to stay on the map.”
Slade’s face lost its diffidence.
“What’s changed the picture?”
Cruger’s answer to that was not a
direct one.
“We've both got all we own in this
one-horse outfit and we can’t afford
to see it fold up. While you were out fighting head winds I’ve been in
here doing a little fighting of my
own. And Pve just got my hands on a reconditioned Locldieed that’ll
give us a second air truck and re
lease Abbott and his Postcraft for Winnipeg and Toronto passenger
traffic. You’ll like that Lockheed. They’ve slapped a fresh coat of alu
minum paint on her.”
“What’ll she carry?” asked the flyer.
“A pay load of thirty thousand pounds a trip if she has to.”
, “Where’ll you get your pay loads?” exacted Slade, remember
ing how war conditions had put a sag in sub-arctic mine work.
“I'm coming to that, stick-jiggler. The traffic’s still there, if you’re willing to go after it. And I’ve gone
after it. Pve under-bid the big outfits and corraled enough business
to keep us busy till freeze-up. I’ve got Fort Norman oil and a new slice of the Yellowknife stuff for you.
I’ve got a renewal of the Copper
mine contract. And what’s more,
I’ve got a Santa Claus in spectacles who’s handing over enough ready dough to keep our cash tank from
running dry.” ,
The Viking blue eye became more alert.
“Who’s your Santa Claus?”
“He’s a passenger,” said Cruger,
“you’re going to fly into territory
that'll make London look like a tea
room on a rainy afternoon.
Cruger sat back, apparently wait
ing for a question. But Slade, with
his world to reorganize, merely
walked to the window and looked
out."You’re flying,” Cruger was say
ing, “into the Anawotto country,”
Slade’s turn, at that information,
was quick.“What nut’s going into that wilderness?” he demanded.
“They go into some queer places, these days,” observed the older
man.' »
said Crnger, "We’re going to take
“But the Anawotto’s as empty as Sahara. Why, the only human be
ings north of the Kasakana are two
frost-bitten old quartz-pounders, two
half-demented old derelicts who’ve been bushed for three years and
would bump off ,if I didn’t tote ’em
in their flour and sowbelly.” “You’re going well past the Kasa-
kana this time,’-’ Crpger announced.
“Into country you’ve never seen be
fore.”“For what?” asked Slade.
Cruger took his time about answering.
“For swans’ eggs, I understand.”
Slade’s sun-bleached brows came
a little closer together.
"Just what does that mean?”
Again Cruger took, his-time. -
"It means we’ve got a simple- minded naturalist out there, an or
nithologist answering to the name
of Frayne, who wants to be flown
north so he can find the breeding ground of the trumpeter swan. I
never saw a trumpeter swan,. Did you?”
Slade stood thoughtful a moment. . “Yes, I saw a trumpeter, only last spring. I played tag with him
over Lac Ta Martre. He must have
had a wing-stretch of nine or ten
feet.” •“I’d call that quite a stretch,”
said the man at the desk.“You’re telling me?”: “They may be impressive,” said
Cruger, as he opened a desk drawer, “but from what I can gather
they’re dying off. And this man Frayne wants to sleuth out their
nesting quarters before they follow
the dodo and disappear for good.”
; “And he’s going in to the Ana- wotto alone?”
: Slade’s brow-pucker seemed .one of incredulity.
■! “No, he’s taking an over-sized blond named Karaell along with him.” -
I “A blond?” croaked Slade. “You
don’t mean a skirt?”I “Anything but. This blond is all
male. He’s square-headed and go
rilla-jawed and looks like something
that’s been worked on by a snarling iron.”
!Slade found the picture unpalatable.' .
“But who’s your friend Frayne?”
he persisted with a shrug of dis
taste. “Where does he come-from?
And .why does he pick on us?”J "That’s neither your problem nor
mine. But he’s the Norland’s friend, all right., He may be a simple- minded crank. But he’s so well
heeled that money doesn’t seem to mean much. And at this stage of
the game we’re going to handle a
Christmas present like that with
care.”- Slade, nodded his understanding.■' "But he must have, a screw loose
somewhere,” maintained the younger man, “or he wouldn’t be head
ing for what he’s sure to get in that
Aiiawotto country.” i
j “You needn’t lose sleep over
that,” contended Cruger. “He maybe after birds’ eggs, but he seems to
have ,a working knowledge .of sub
arctic conditions. I didn’t find him much of a talker, but I stumbled
on' the fact he’d been trophy-hunt- ffig in the Himalayas last winter.
And the ^ winter before he hunted
the snow leopard in Siberia and.
it.”'Then I suppose he’s English,” gaid Slade. “One of-those English
big-game guys who go around with a monocle and a tin bathtub ’’
' “He’s got equipment, all right,” conceded Cruger. “And he’s pay
ing us quite handsomely for flying
it in.”

Lesson for June 14
, Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission.
SUNDAY: THE RISEN CHRIST AND HIS DISCIPLES
LESSON TEXT—Luke 24:33*48.
GOLDEN TEXT-Ye are witnesses of these things.—Luke 24:48.
The glory and gladness of the resurrection morning drove back
the darkness of the tomb and replaced, the disciples’ sadness with
holy gladness. God’s message to His people is one of assurance and
hope. The night may be dark, but
the dawn will surely come.Two.of Jesus’ disciples had been
walking sadly along the road to Em- maus when suddenly a stranger was
with them, telling them what the Scriptures taught about the Christ—
His sufferings and His glory. Their hearts burned strangely within them
(Luke 24:32), but they did not rec
ognize Him until He broke the bread
of their evening meal—and then .He
was gone.
But now they had a joyous message which sent them hurrying back
to Jerusalem to the eleven who had
gathered behind locked doors to
discuss the reports which had also
come to them of His resurrection.
And suddenly—
I. “Jesus Himself Stood in the
Midst” (w. 33-43).What a blessed and conclusive
confirmation of their report. He, their beloved Lord and Master, stood
there before them, alive and ,speaking Ks tender message of “Peace.”
The disciples, however, were be
wildered and slow to believe. Ob
serve how kind and patient He was with these frightened and unbeliev
ing men. And note what a splen
did testimony it is to the truth of the resurrection that they who
knew Him best expected proof before they believed:
Before we condemn them for lack
of faith let us ask ourselves if we
would have done better, and let us
be thankful that Uieir hesitation
made assurance doubly sure. He
was really there—alive."' Partaking of food (which He did not need),
and giving them opportunity to touch His body, He demonstrated
the reality of the resurrection.
He next gave them a sure founda
tion for faith.
n. “Then Opened He Their Un
derstanding” (w..44, 45),
This He did that they might “understand the scriptures." Their
minds had become confused and He
literally “disentangled” them. We
need to have Uie knots and kinks taken out of our thinking about
God’s Word. Then we too will un
derstand.
Dealing with the entire Old Testa
ment (divided by the Hebrews into law, prophets and psalms),'. He
thus gave it His endorsement. Men may deny, but Jesus approved the
Scriptures of the Old Testament— and we are ready to take His word.
“All things must bev fulfilled” is
His statement concerning Himself. There is our Lord’s guarantee that the promises of His second
coming, and all that is associated
with it, as well as with His future
reign, will be fulfilled.
This Ume--Of fellowship with the
Lord around the Word of. God was strengthening to their faith, but it
had another purpose. The blessings of God are not for our own satisfaction alone, for it is His will that
there be-
in. “Repentance Preached in His
Name’’ (w. 46-48).
There is a message to go out through His disciples to all nations.
He died for the sins of the world. He arose for the justification of those
who believe. There is remission of sin for those who in repentance and faith turn to Him.
Fellowship with Christ and an un- oerstanding' of His Word which does
not result in aggressive, witness for Him is quite useless! We meet Him
and study His Word not only that we may grow in grace, but that
we may be witnesses to all nations.
To be a , witness involves knowledge of a fact, to the truth of which
the individual can. bear testimony.
The disciples were called to be witnesses, “not speculators, philoso
phers, moralists or legislators. They had neither to argue nor to
dissertate, nor to lay down rules for conduct, nor to ventilate their own
fancies.' They were witnesses, and'
their business was to tell the truth, the whole trutb, and nothing but the truth” (Alexander Maclaren). ,
The Christian by life possibly
more than by word is to “adorn the doctrine of God,” as Paul put it
(Titus 2:10), commending it to those round about him. Oibserve that such
a witness is to start right at home; “beginning at Jerusalem” (v. 47 ).
It may be difficult in our times to send witnesses to distant lands,
for ships are busy carrying the
men -and implements of war. But right in your Jerusalem there is a
spiritual need, in your little town
or rural community, in the city
where you live, in your home, office, shop, or. school. You who
read this who are in the service of the country will find a “Jerusalem” n your camp or on your ship.

AMERICAN RED CROSS
'T'O THOUSANDS of Americans -L seeking news of their families- and friends in war-torn' countries,
25 words on an official Red Cross
form have meant all the difference
between hope and despair.Ever since the outbreak of the
war, the American Red Cross has been for many people the only me
dium through which they could get news of their relatives in Poland,
Holland, Belgium and the other oc
cupied nations. Even when the
■ news has been bad, even when it
has been the worst possible, it has
at least meant merciful release
from torturing anxiety and uncer
tainty. N
For a while it was possible
in a few cases to maintain
contact by letter over long roundabout routes. Since
America’s entry into the war,
all remaining avenues of communication have been etosed.
Today, under-the-rules of the United States Office of Censor-
- - ship, personal messages to
‘ residents of enemy or enemy
occupied territory may be for
warded ONLY through the Bed
, Cross inquiry service here and the International - Bed Cross
committee in Geneva, Switzer-
I land.
- Regulations governing the sending of one of these messages from
the United States are that the communication, which should be filled
in at a local Red Cross chapter, Imust not be more than 25 words,
I and should be in English. If it is !written in a foreign language, an
- English translation must be at
tached.
The United States Offiee of
Censorship rules that.no men-
-tion may be made .of polities or military subjects, defense
materials, shipping or weather conditions, business matters
or geographic names.
But even the strict regulations
cannot rob the brief message on ' the International Red Cross form,
of its human warmth and drama. The original message, made out in
some local Red Cross chapter
here, goes on it^ long and slow
journey across ocean and conti
nents. Space is provided on it I for a reply message, to be re-
' turned to the original sender.Prepared Exclusively for WNU.

The Army’s fighter planes are the
finest in the world and develop speeds up to 400 miles an hour.
They cost approximately $100,000 each, provide fighter escorts for the
huge flying fortresses, and combine speed, range, altitude and blistering fire power.
America’s plane production plants
are working over-time turning out
thousands of these fighter planes.
War Savings Bonds will help pay for them and the American people
are committed to at least ten per
cent of their income to finance their cost in War Bonds. Every Ameri
can, buying his share every pay day, will make it comparatively easy to
supply our army and navy air corps'
with these supreme Eagles of the air.

MOSQUITOES ENTER HOUSE AT NIGHT THROUGH CHIMNEY
FLUES
ALTHOUGH my living-room is tightly screened,” writes a
correspondent, “we find many mosquitoes in it, especially at night.
In spite of careful watehing, we
have not seen any coming through the screens, and are completely puzzled as to how they get in. Can
you make any suggestions?”
If there is a fireplace in the room,
and being a living-room there probably is one, the mosquitoes are un
doubtedly coming down the chimney. At night when the room is
lighted, the flying insects see the glow down the flues, and are attract
ed by it. The remedy is to keep the
throat damper closed; or if the fire
place has no throat damper, the throat connecting with the flue can
be stuffed with newspapers. I feel sure that this precaution will end the trouble. Of course, with a fire
going, the insects will not come down. Naturally if the fire is to be
lighted on a cool evening, the damper must be opened, or the newspa
pers taken out.
Cellar Wall Finish
Question: My cellar walls are tint
ed with something that I believe comes fropi acetylene gas. A sec
ond coat is needed. Can you tell me what the material is and where
I can get more of it?
Answer: That material is actually
a form of lime and is left over when
acetylene gas is made from calcium carbide. This gas is used for weld
ing and for other purposes, and welders are usually glad to give
away the residue that comes from the generators. Companies making
the generators, as well as the producers of calcium carbide, issue
booklets describing the many uses for carbide residue, including whitewash.
Hornet’s Nest
Question: There is a hornet’s nest in a crack in my roof, directly above
my back porch door. I am in constant fear of being stung. How can
I get rid of it?Answer: Tackle the job at dusk
on a cool evening, when the hornets will be partly dormant. Using a
spray filled with kerosene, approach the nest quietly, and force the spray
violently into the crack. The hornets will be stunned before they can
get out. The crack can then be plugged with putty or otherwise. Be
fore starting, you should observe carefully to note whether or not
there is another opening to the nest, so that also can be closed.
Too Much Humidificatiim
Question: Last summer I added a humidifier to my heating plant. The humidity varies from 30 to 40 per
cent. The guide calls 40 to 60 per cent normal. My windows steam up
considerably and the woodwork is getting black. What should I do?Answer: Your percentage of hu
midity is evidently too high. The black on the woodwork is mildew.
Shut off the humidifier for a few days and give the house a. chance
to dry out. You should turn on the humidifier only to the point at which
the windows just begin to cloud
over. That is your limit.
Sealing Sappy Wood
Question: When resinous wood is
used for clapboards, is it only the
knots that need shellacking to prevent bleeding into the paint? Should
the shellac be sandpapered before painting?
Answer: AU resinous places
should be sealed. But before shellacking wash IiberaUy with benzine
to clear aU of the surface pores of the resin, so that the shellac can
soak in. Sandpapering wiU be necessary only when the sheUacked sur
face is smooth and glossy.
Seasoning a Dutch Oven
Question: I recently purchased a
cast iron Dutch oven which I cannot
use because rust forms as it is being used. Some one told me that such
a utensil has to be “seasoned.” How
is this done?
Answer: One method is to render a chunk of beef suet In the 'Dutch
oven, then rub the hot fat into, all
parts of the oven whUe it is hot. Let
it stand for a half hour, then wash with soap and water. Do not use
scouring powder.Attic Insulation
Question: Where can I get information on the insulating of two
rooms that I intend to buUd in my
attic?
Answer: AU manufacturers of in
sulating materials issue instructions
for the insulating of attics, both with and without rooms. You can get
these instructions direct from the
manufacturer, from lumber yards
and from dealers in buUding material.
Cutting LinoleumQuestion: We intend covering our
interior cellar steps with linoleum,
each step individually. Can you ad
vise how to cut this linoleum
straight?Answer: For best results linoleum
should be cut with a knife made for the purpose. It has a curved blade
and the edge is very sharp. The
New York office of any of the lino
leum companies can inform where
it can be purchased. Before you cut the linoleum, mark it off with
a pencil to help keep 'a straigh*

Soil Building Measures
Help Seedings
T e sts O v er E ig h t Y ea rs
S h o w In terestin g R esu lts
Ry I. F. DAVIS Research Assistant
Depsttment of Soil Science. Michigen Stete College .
How soil building measures improve not only the yield but the quality of seedings and small grains
was demonstrated by an experiment carried on by the soil science de
partment of Michigan State college.
The program covered an eight- year period and included crop rota
tion, the use of commercial fertilizer and a green manure crop plowed under. The rotation—corn, oats,
wheat and alfalfa for two years, with sweet clover plowed down once
in eight years—is typical for a large number of farms' in north-central
United States.For every dollar spent for fertiliz
er a return of $3.60 was realized,
according to a tabulation of the results. In the experiment, 150
pounds of 4-16-4 fertilizer per acre
applied to the oats and 250 pounds of
4-16-4 on wheat, seeded to alfalfa, resulted in an increase of 4.9 bushels
of oats, 8.1 bushels of wheat and
I ton of alfalfa hay.
That all the advantages gained from the use of fertilizers cannot be
measured in increased yields alone was shown by the fact that a dis
tinct improvement in quality was re
corded, with plumper kernels and less shrunken grains. From the
particular land devoted to this
experiment the farmer exhibits
grain samples, and when selecting his show samples he invariably dis
cards grain from unfertilized plots.FertUizer applications proved more
effective in some years than others. The average oats increase due to
fertilizer was 4.9 bushels per acre. However, in 1936 this increase was
9.8 bushels and in 1940 it was 8.9 bushels. The wheat yield showed
corresponding variations. In 1938
the ^increase In yield due to fertilizer was 18 bushels per acre; in 1939,
10.1; in 1940, 19.9; and in 1941, 4.3 bushels. Wheat grown on unferti
lized plots was invariably of inferior quality to wheat produced on fer
tilized plots. Moreover, the lower the yield on unfertilized plots, the
poorer the quality of grain.In another series of tests the 1940
alfalfa yield was more than doubled by fertilizing the preceding barley
crop. A plot fertilized with 200 pounds of 0-20-0 and eight loads of manure
per acre applied on the barley, yielded 2.11 tons of alfalfa on the
first cutting. The yield of plots receiving no fertilizer was .98 tons,
and on plots on which manure alone was applied the yield was 1.65 tons.

Oil Plants
To. find out whether oil plants might be profitably grown in this
country, the National Farm Chem- urgic Council has distributed seeds
for test plantings. Farmers from
Maine to California have tested the seeds and reported their results
which are often favorable. With disturbed world conditions, imports
may be stiU further curtailed and there may be a need for domestic
oil to supplant the foreign supply.Simflower seed finds a ready mar
ket for birdseed and poultry feed mixtures. Our domestic supply of
about 7,000,000 pounds is grown in Illinois, Missouri and California. It
is an old crop which the Indians on the east shore of Lake Huron raised for their needs. They used stalks
for cloth, leaves for fodder, flowers
for yellow dye.Since 1936, a small amount of
rapeseed oil has been crushed each year in this country. It is used as
a lubricant, mixed with minerals, and finds a place in the manufacture of rubbersubstitutes.
Safflower has been investigated as a possible oilseed crop for the north
ern states. It is a quick drying oil and can be used in the manufac
ture of paints, varnishes and enamels. In India, the blossoms are used
for saffron dye and the oil is used
for light.The Ferilla plant grows best in
the cotton belt, especially in southern Virginia. It is difficult to han
dle, however, because the seeds burst from their pods when ripe.
A g ric u ltu ra l N o te s
We in'the Farm Security administration started out to relieve the eco
nomic plight of disadvantaged farm people. We learned certain funda
mentals—that you build an( econom ically sound life not on credit or
even the land itself. You build it
on the people.—C. B. Baldwin, FSA administrator, U. S. department of agriculture in a speech before a

After the “I do’s” have been said,
and you have remembered to wear something borrowed, something blue, and something new, besides
throwing your bouquet to some lucky bridesmaid, you are ready for
the reception.The reception is among the more elaborate forms of entertaining, but because of our
wartime status, this year’s event
will undoubtedly
be more simple. Simplicity, how
ever, does not im
ply lack of charm
or graciousness, indeed, it' often
enhances it the more.
White is the color for brides, so
use your linens or damask on the wedding table. Flowers may be
white calla lilies in crystal or silver centerpiece, or other delicate pastel
Sowers used with plenty of white to carry out the theme. Have your candles, white, too, as the occasion
is somewhat formal.
At most weddings the trend is to have other refreshments besides the
traditional white cake cut by the bride and the necessary assistance by the groom! If you are., baking
the cake at home—and it. will be good if you do—plan to have a small
pastry tube for . the frills and decorations with celluloid or paper fig
ures of the groom and bride as a decoration. - . •

THE TASK COMMITTED TO THE DISCIPLES
LESSON TEXT-Matthew 28:16-21); Mark 16:14-2«; Luke 24:49-53.
GOLQEN TEXT-Go ye Into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.— Mark 16:15.
Witnesses of the resurrection—
that privilege of the disciples carried With it the responsibility of de
claring the good news of completed
redemption to all the nations of the earth.; In doing so they were des
tined to meet opposition and unbe
lief, tp feel weariness and to know
discouragement. So the Lord, before leaving this world for His pres
ent ministry at the Father’s right
hand (Mark 16:19; Heb. 7:25), pre-
paredithem by giving them a divine
commission, which they accepted and acted upon with the assurance
of His power and blessing. The lesson is summarized in the words,
“Go ye” (Matt. 28:19); “They went
forth” (Mark 16:20); "And He . . .
blessed them” (Luke 24:50).
I. “Go Ye” (Matt. 28:16-20).
God’s plans are never small plans.
World evangelization, nothing less, was the goal He had in mind, and
to which Christ commissioned this little ,group of humble folk who were
His disciples. It was not only a great commission, but a daring one.
Back of such marching orders
there must be authority and power —and Christ had them (v. 18)—all
power and all authority. No need to measure or compare, for His is
the ultimate and complete authority. This :is the One who said, “Come
unto me”; then, “Follow me, and I will ,make you fishers of men,” and
who Aow says, "Go.” H we heed one command, should we noj abso
lutely‘obey the others?
The message is His message, the
gospel (Mark 16:15). It is the only
message! The witnesses of Christ
are not called to educate and civilize
the heathen without winning them to
Christ. To do so is only to prepare stronger and more skillful ene
mies of all that we count holy.But a great program means noth
ing if it is not carried out; a great commission is only words unless it
is accepted and obeyed. We read of the disciples that—
H. “They Went Forth” (Mark 16:
14-20).The call and command are given
in this passage. The power is made clear and somewhat in detail, but
the significant thing is that they actually went , forth to preach.
The response of these early Christians was immediate and enthusi
astic. Would that such a spirit bad characterized the church through ail
the generations since then, for if it
had, the commission would long since have been carried out. Dr.
R. A. Torrey has estimated that if
everyone in a church of 2,000 were
to win one soul a year, and each
convert win one soul each year, the
world would be evangelized in less
than 35 years.But while on the whole the church
has failed, there have been valiant souls all down through its history
who have given themselves to the
business of soul-winning. With them,
as with these of the first century, the secret is ever “The Lord work
ing with them.” We read that as
He was leaving this earth and His
disciples, He lifted up His hands—
m . “And He .. . Blessed Them”
(Luke 24:49-53).
God has always honored those who in faith have obeyed His command.
The whole history of missionary en
deavor bears eloquent testimony to
that fact.Sometimes we marvel at the success of a great movement, such as
that founded by John Wesley. The
answer is that God found a man, or
a little group of men or women, willing to take Him at His word and
step out in earnest purpose to obey
Him. “For forty years John Wesley
carried on his mission of canvass
ing for Christ ‘as a parliamentary
candidate canvasses for votes in bis
constituency in the strenuous three
weeks before an election’ ” (Arnold’s Commentary). Little wonder
that with the blessing of Christ upon
his work brings joy to many even to this day.
Note that the disciples who had
been made sad and despondent by
their parting with Christ at Calvary now went away in joy. The
joy of the Lord is the strength of the Christian worker. It gives
him abundant grace and power in
the hour of need and makes him a fruitful servant.
A Warm Soul
I saw once lying side by side in a great workshop, two heads made of
metal. The one was perfect; ail the
features of a noble, manly face came out clear and distinct in their lines
of strength and beauty; hi the other, scarcely a single feature could be
recognized; it was all marred and
spoiled. “The metal had been let
grow a little too cool, sir,” said the man who was showing it to me. I
could not help thinking how true that
was of many a form more precious
than metal. — Canon Teignmoutb Shore. •

WAR BONDS
The Army’s fighter planes are the
finest In the world and develop speeds up to 400 miles an hour.
They cost approximately $100,000
each, provide fighter escorts for the huge flying fortresses, and combine speed, range, altitude and blistering
fire power.
America’s plane production plants are working over-time turning out
thousands of these fighter planes. War Savings Bonds will help pay
for them and the American people are committed to at least ten per
cent of their income to finance their cost in War Bonds. Every Ameri
can, buying his share every pay day,
will make it comparatively easy to supply our army and navy air corps with these supreme Eagles of the air.

The Importance of Sun
day Sdiool
Rev. Walter E. henhour. Hiddenite. N. C.
As I look back across Jhe fiity.
three years of tnv life I can say
that I am thankful for every Sab
bath that I attended Sunday school.
I owe much indeed to the Sunday
school as a minister and writer a-
cross the years I remember as a
boy growing up in my home com
munity I became very much inter*
ested in the Sunday school. The
Bible truths I learned then, both
from the literature and from good
teachers, bave followed me through
the years of life and have helped
to form and mould my character
and life for God.
It is said that very few people
have ever become criminals that
have been lalthful attendants at
Sunday school. Judges have ques
tioned criminals and rarely ever
find one that has fal hfully attend
ed Sunda j school across the years.
Almost all criminals come from
those who never go to Sunday
school. Occasionally one may. be
come a criminal who has attended
Sunday school and quit. One rare
ly ever commits crime while under
the influence of the Sunday school.
If this were all that our Sunday
schools accomolishnd across the
weeks and months and years, it
would pay us to keep them going.
However, the great accomplish
ment of our Sunday schools is that
of soul* winning. Almost ail our
converts and church membership
come fiom our Sunday schools.
Very few are ever reached with the
Gospel and for Christ who never
attend Sundayschool and church.
The Sunday school indeed has
its influence for good. I. recall to
mind just now how the boys and
girls of my childhood and youthful
days who went to Sunday school
have gone out and made good citi
zens. Some of them have filled
trust worthy—places in life. They
bave been among our Christian
leaders, and our supporters of the
Gospel. Others who- grew up in
my day without attending Sunday
school made failures in life. Some
of them were-drunkards, and died
withoui Christ. Some of them were
criminals. They wasted their time
and neglected their great opportun
ities in life, hence are gone and for.
gotten.
I recall to mind how some of the
boys I knew, and was with from
time to time, especially in public
school, and met and'crossed their
paths, more or lessfor a number of
years, would go out on Sunday,
drink whisky and play cards in
stead of attending Sunday school.
Some of them had fine opportuni
ties, and all of them had plenty of
intelligence with which to make
good in life, but hardly one that I
know of ever succeeded to any great
extent. If he did he eertainly had
to quit his drinking aud cardplay-
ing and gambling. They wasted
their precious time and .neglected
their golden opportunities. They
desecrated the Sabbath day by in.
dulging In sin. They influenced
eoch other on a downward course.
I recall that one of them, and per
haps the ringleader in drinking and
card playing, was a brilliant youth.
He bad a great mind and remark
able memory. But he left God out
of his life, and died a number, of
years ago just as be bad lived, so
|ar as I know. He could have been
ia man of great influence and pow
er for- his country in uplifting and
upbuilding it, whereas be was t
great hinderance.1 He dLd "un<
wept, unhonored and unsung.”
How pathetic!
As long as .we see the - vast ma
jority, of-our children and youth
out playing, running to and fro, up
and down the country, automobile
riding,'seeking pleasure, many of
whom drink, carouse, use profane
language, and seek jnst that sort
of company, we are going to see
crime on the increase, and our pris
ons packed with criminals. Every
father and molber ought to faitb
fully attend Sunday school and
take their children with them, and
as these children grow up into man
hood and womanhood they will
make law-abiding citizens, and out
of their rank and file will go our
Christians, and our noble leaders.
They will become our ministers of
the Gospel, our missionaries, our
honest, straight-forward business
men and women, our upright and
noble school teachers, our godly ed
itors and writers and rulers.
Our children and young people
ought to be in Sunday school, also
everybody else who can attend.
Sunday school is vitally important
as a means toward salvation and
the best there is in morality ' and
spirituality. Many children never
get uny religious training in the
home, and if they never attend
Sunday school they grow up with
little better knowledge of the Bible
and God than the poor heathen
who worship theii idol gods. The
less our Sunday schools are attend
ed by parents and children, and the
youth of our country, the more
crime will inciease, and the more
will it help to defeat us as a'nation
morally and spiritually, also finan
cially. Crime and wickedness is
tremendously expensive in dollars
and cents as. well as in precious
lives and immortal souls. O, that
those who read this message, who
may have become careless and in
different toward the church and
Sunday school, may be aroused and
awakened to a sense of your duty!
Neglect along any. line of great im
portance will bring its return of ill
and evil consequences. We ought
to bave millions more in our Sun
day schools in the United States
than we now have, but the distres.
sing thing is that we arc losing in
stead of gaining in numbers.

Wartime Schedules Are
Announced By
Greyhound
beginning Monday, June 15 th. all
buses operating on Atlantic Grey
hound Lines will be running cn new
wartime schedules, according to an
acconncement made by Mr. H. P.
Brawner, Atlantic Greyhound Traf
fic Manager. A complete rearrange*
ment of services is being made at
this time to cooperate fully with the
wartime program of the Office of
Defense Transportation.
The important thing in times like
these is thet every bus should work
full-time and that vital materials
needed for the war effort should be
saved in every possible way. To
give Americ’s war program th e
right-of-way, it has been found nec
essary to limit service where there is
the least demand for it and to di
vert equipment to routes where it is
most needed.
In making the announcement of
the new changes, Mr. Drawnet
stressed the fact that many peace'
time features of bus travel are of
necessity being discontinued. For
one thing operating speeds are some*
what reduced, and Express and
Limited schedules are eliminated en
tirely. Second sections of regular
schedules will not be operated unless
there are a sufficient number of pas
sengers to justify it.
With tire and gasoline rationing so
much in the limelight today, Mr.
Brawner stressed the fact that buses
are aiding conservation greatly since
they use only a fraction as much
rubber and gasoline per passenger,
per mile.
He also expressed the hope that
all passengers would remember that
wartime travel is not "travel as
usual,” and that they would make
allowances if they were in any way
inconveienced, or crowded, or de
layed.

The giant four-motored Navy Patrol Bombers are the world’s most powerful planes. They cost approxi
mately $700,000 each. The Navy also has a lighter Bomber caUed the Scout Bomber which costs about $148,000 apiece.
The battle for Britain was almost lost because England had none of these giant four-motored planes with which to fight back. We need thou
sands of them and they are coming off the assembly lines in our production plants at a high., rate of speed today. You can help buy
these for your Navy by purchasing War Bonds and Stamps every pay day. Put at least ten percent into
Bofids or Stamps and help your county go over-its Quota.

We bave never before known of
so many Democrats running for of
fice as are in tbe field this-year. In
some sections as many as a dozen
are seeking tbe same office. Tbe
biggest fake of tbe year is tbe slo
gan "politics, adjourned.”
Adolph Hitler is a miserable ex
cuse for a man—a warped mental
ity with a superiority complex, be
sides which Judas Iscariot was a
Christian and Nero a Saint.
There may be some grounds for
consolation over the rumor that
Hitler has the jitters, but tbe only
true consolation that we will enjoy
is when Hitlerism is blasted into
hell where Allied might is deter
mined to put it.
Nearly half a century ago, when
President McKinley took over the
Philippines, we said: “The United
States is making a colossal blunder
that will haunt and handicap tbis
country for years to come,” Well,
as Al Smith used to say, Take a
look at the record.”
Here’s an alarming item you may
have missed: A 600 per cent in
crease in arrests was the record in
crease In arrests was the record of
the first 30 days of restored liquor
sales in -Honolulu and Hawaii,
’Nuff said!
Suppose you ask your Congress
man this' question—“Do you be
lieve the bigger the national debt,
the better off we are?” Ifnot wbat
do you propose to do about it?”
And upon his answer cast your vote
accordingly.
The Charlotte, North Carolina,
Observer, Democratic, and which
boasts of the widest circulation of
auy' paper in the Carolinas. in a
lengthy article, titled “A New Deal
Inflation Remedy” takes a crack at
President Roosevelt in these words:
‘But, as has often been the case
with the good ends which the Pre
sident has in mind, tbe means to
those ends which be advises and
favors are subject to question. Con
sistency has never been among the
more conspicuous virtues of Mr.
Roosevelt’s philosophies of govern
ment.”
Speaking about the fellows yon
send to Washington, here is some
thing to think about: ' Do you
know your Congressman? How
long has he served? Wbat com
mittee is he on? Do you recognize
him on the street? Have you ever
talked with .him about legislation?
Have you ever written him a letter?
Boy, it’s time you were getting
busy. Au election is only a few
months off and the world is on fire.
You will be responsible for the
sort, of a Congress we will bave
next year. Wbat will' the country
be worth when you are gone unless
you leave your children a free band
and a solvent country?

What Goes On Here?
The transfer office for the State
Prison Department was arrested here
last week on a charge of drunken
driving Hewas driving a Prison
car at tbe time, and it is alleged that
liquor was found in the car. It is
also alleged that he resisted arrest
at the hands of the State Highway
patrolman.
That is a matter of disposition by
the courts and this corner has no
purpose to butt in. But there is an
other angle which happens to be pro
per subject for discussion.
From the Under the Dome column
of the Raleigh News and Observer
we lift this:
"To State political circles, Tom
Littieis a familiar character. Di
rector Oscar PittB of the State Pri
son Department had the Democratic
State Convention here last month
put him on the State Democratic
Execatire committee, dethrong John
McLaughlin, of Statesville.”
Read that again, please. “Oscar
had the State Democratic conven
tion” take this action. And what,
pray, has Oscar Pitts to do with who
is to represent the Democrats of Ire
dell county, except his own personal
interest in a political machine that
will respond to bis magic touch and
amplify the power he already holds
in North Carolina.
And how did Fuehrer Pitts go a*
bout “having” Tom Little put on
the Democratic Executive Commit
tee. The procedure was simple: A
trusted and influential member of
the Iredell delegation was selected to
nominate Little and the rest was
eas7. John McLaughlin who bad the
courage to stand to toe and fight.
Raleigh officialdom on more than one
occasion, particularly the irregulari
ties In connection with the adminis-
tration of local highway affairs, was
dethroned to make way for a—well,
lets be moderate and say a man who
was not expected to stand toe to toe
and fight for anything the Big Boss
doesn’t want.
Tbe gentleman who did the chores
for Pitts in presenting the name of
Little for this high place in the par
ty. cannot be excused on the ground
that he didn’t know tbe fall import
ance of wbat he was doing, and those
who followed bis leadership without
a protest cannot brag about their
stewardship.
Oscar Pitts, who by virtue of tbe
political power he baa gained or as
sume could be the greatest menace
to good government in North Caro
lina, baa saved face for himself and
his Prison Department by suspend*
ing Liille.' indefinitely. Will be be
just as diligent in seeing that he is
suspended from bis proud place in
the councils of the Democratic party?

Consolidated Feature’s—WNU Features.
.TSJEW YORK. — After the first
' World war, the war department
picked Brig. Gen. Hanson E. Ely,as he was then, to “read, mark,learn and in-
tO ne W ho Can wardly di-
D igest Failures gest” our
A n d war experi-successes ence This
he did, as president of the army
war college, and his documented
and formulated findings of what our
army learned in this short, prelimi
nary bout have been worked into
our military heritage and are now
being used In the main event.
Major General Ely rates any
casual, off-hand optimist when
he says we’re doing all right
in this war, that we’re getting plenty of fighting tools, and
that officers and men have what it takes. One feels a bit offside
if he gets too much this way or that, but in this corner we can’t
help being bucked up when anyone of General Ely’s profession
al detachment says we’re coming through. 'He is 75 years old,
having retired from active duty
in November, 1931, when he reached the statutory retirement
age. He didn’t “shoulder his crutch and tell how battles were
won.” He continued as an in
structor in the war college in
Washington, lecturing on “the psychology ,of the battlefield.”
And it is interesting to find an
old • timer hoping instead of croaking, and telling how much
better they used to do things in his day.
He is a huge man, supercharged
With physical and mental energy, and hit his later years with a tre
mendous momentum. They call him
“Ely of Cantigny.” That goes back
to 1918, when he commanded and led the 28th infantry when it cap
tured Cantigny in one of our most
brilliantly executed victories of the
war. This and other such exploits
brought him the Distinguished Service Cross, the Distinguished Service
medal and five awards of the Croix
de Guerre.
He was bom in Independence, Iowa, and, after his graduation from
West Point, taught military science
at the University of Iowa. He was
in the Philippines, fighting and hacking his way through the jungles with
Gen. Frederick Funston, from 1898
to 1904, back again in 1907, to re
main five years and make the first complete map of the Philippines. He
is one of the nation’s leading au
thorities on tactics and battle leadership—with a mind flexible enough
to turn from tactics to the improvi
sations of strategy, if that is what is
needed.
A LEAN and academic but tough
bachelor of the science of edu
cation, in the army after winning
scholastic laurels, is in command . of our new

the mainland. He is Brig. Gen. Wil
liam C. Lee, Colonel Lee until a few weeks ago, a native of North Carolina, bom with an insatiable
desire both to get and to impart information. He was an early spe
cial pleader and experimenter in
parachute jumping, as well as mech
anized preparedness in general.
The parachute army numbers
about 8,000 men and one wonders
how lads not long out of a classroom or a soft job on the ground,
with no practice war for a work
out, will take to this ultra-modem
rough-and-tumble of sky and land.
General Lee figured all that
He formulated the science of
physical, sensory emotional con
ditioning of human raw material, with a view to reducing nerve
and reflex variables to a calcula
ble minimum. To do this, he
wanted to know more about communicating precise knowl-.
edge, so he knocked off from active service and, in 1936, after'
19 years in the army, took his degree in the science of educa
tion, at the University of North
Carolina. He works the theory of plastic endowment, the condi
tioning reflex, and the transmission of the social heritage into
teaching rookies to take a dive, poll the rip-cord at the right
split-second, unlimber their guns
and score passing marks thereafter.
General Lee was bom in 1895 and
entered the army from the Univer
sity of North Carolina in 1917. An
incurable bookworm, but ~ always craving action, he ..wolfed all avail
able army courses, including the
officers course of the infantry school,
the full table d’hote of the tank
school, from which he was graduated in 1930, the general staff school,
and then back to Chapel Hill for
coaching in telling what he knew. He was appointed to his present
command last March “to formulate tactical and training doctrine for air
borne troops.”

never appeared together on
either stage or screen. But
thanks to Joan’s sense of hu

in Columbia’s “The Wife Takes a

Richard Wallace, Joan filled it with the oldest and funniest photographs
of her father and sisters that she could find—and the glamorous Ben

sturdy Dutch country folk. Joan’s
the only one to appear personally;
she co-stars with Franchot Tone.
Edmund O’Brien has left RKO Ra

wanted the role, Paramount wanted
her for it, Warner Bros, wanted Fred MacMurray for "Princess
O’Rourke,” so a bit of swapping went on; now everybody’s happy.
It isn’t often that you can see' a
government official flitting about the screen in a woman’s nightgown,

CSING CARBIDE RESIDUE FROM
ACETYLENE BURNERS“ T HAVE a quantity ot carbide
residue from an acetylene welding outfit,” writes a correspondent, “and have heard that I can make
whitewash with it. How should I mix it?" Carbide residue is pure
lime in a finely divided form, and can be used as a substitute for lime
for many uses. As a whitewash it
is excellent and can be substituted
for hydrated lime in practically all of the formulas, using perhaps SO
per cent more. One excellent formula for weatherproof whitewash is made by mixing 60 pounds of car
bide residue with water to form a
cream. To this is added a solution
of I pound of common salt and Vt pound of zinc sulphate in I gallon
of boiling water, to which is added I gallon of skimmed milk. This so
lution is added to the carbide residue cream and stirred well.
Cracking Plaster
Question: In several houses that I have inspected lately, there are
large cracks in the plaster walls or ceilings. How can I prevent this in
building a new house with a cement block basement?
Answer: The usual cause of plaster cracking is settlement, which
may be from the sinking of the foundations into the ground, or the
shrinkage of the wood frame. Sinking of the foundation can be pre
vented by providing footings of a sufficient size to carry the weight.
Settlement from the shrinkage of the timbers that might cause plas
ter cracking can be guarded against by the design of the framework. You
can get information on this from the National Lumber Manufacturers association, Washington, D. C.
SmeUy Containers
Question: I have received a very
nandsom'e kitchen utensil set, but cannot use the containers because
of the odor picked up by sugar, coffee, etc. Washing does no good,
nor baking soda in warm water, or
airing. What can you suggest?Answer: Try the effect of enclos
ing in each container a can of char
coal, such as is made for deodoriz
ing refrigerators. -These can be had at dime and hardware stores. Char
coal is an excellent absorber of
odoTS, and should work w ell.
Burning Wood.
Question: We have steam heat. During the cool fall days, before the
fire is started for the winter, will it be all right to burn wood in the fur
nace when heat is needed?
Answer: I do not advise it; for
soot and other products of combustion might cause a serious clogging
of the flues in the boiler and the
chimney also. You would have to
bum a great deal of wood to bring
the water up to the boiling point. You will do much better to run a low
coal fire.
Cleaning Drainboard
Question: How can I clean the drainboard of my Tdtchen sink? The
dirt seems to stick in the. grooves.Answer: It may be that your
drainboard is not acid-proof and that the enamel has been damaged by
acidity or the incorrect use of a
strong drain cleaner. Try bleaching with a mild solution of Javelle
water or something- similar, or ap
ply a paste made of household am
monia and a scratchless cleaning powder, allowing it to stand for sev
eral hours.
Refinishing a Floor
Question: .I have removed the var
nish from my fioor, but find that aft
er using a bleach it remains spotted. What should I do now?
Answer: Your best move will be to have the floor gone over with an
electric floor machine which will remove all the spotted wood and will
expose new wood, which will be easy to refinish. The floor, can then
be refinished with any one of the
new and effective floor seals, finished, if you desire, by waxing.
Leaded Glass
Question: Can you give me the name of anything better than putty
tor leaded glass? The putty fails
out so frequently.
Answer: Plastic roofing cement stiffened with dry Portland cement
can be used. This is black. For a white cement, use « half-and-half
mixture of Unseed. oO and spar varnish, with a little japan drier, made
into a stiff paste by the addition of
powdered whiting. Or use white
lead.Storbig Books
(Question: Is it safe to store books in an attic that is hot in the summer
time? Is it safe to store books in a basement flat?
Answer: Summer heat will not do any great harm to books, but mois
ture will be most injurious. Storage of anything in a basement is never
safe because the atmosphere is likely to be damp.
Thermostat Mght SetHng
Question: You have said that the
night setting of a thermostat should not be lower than 65 degrees. Why is this? We have been in the habit
of setting ours back to 55.' Woidd our method cause the wood mould
ing to separate?Answer: The reason for not set- thing the thermostat back below 65
degrees is for the purpose of saving fuel. It takes.more fuel to raise the
temperature from. 55 to 70, (the morning setting) than from 65 to 70 degrees. The wood moulding would
BOt be affected in either-case.

Cooking for Two
Now that the honeymoon is over,
the serious business of housekeeping
begins. Most brides manage well with the general cleaning routines, but marketing and cooking presents
some problems.
No bride need feel alarmed, however, about cooking or marketing
for two, for it
is often just as much of a prob
lem to market
and feed two peo-
ple as it is a dozen. To help
out this year’s
bride, I’ve formulated a few rules by which she can
start guiding her culinary adventures.
First, the marketing. How, ex
actly does one use the food dollar?
It’s done by fifths: one-fifth of the money should go for purchasing
fruits and vegetables; the next fifth
for milk and cheese, and the bride should remember to provide a pint
of milk for her brand new husband and herself, every day, in drinking
or cooking. Another fifth goes for meat, eggs and fish, and still an
other fifth provides the bread and cereals. The last fifth is used for
purchasing fats like butter or enriched margarine, sugars and ac
cessories.The above yardstick will help the
-bride plan her well-balanced meals. Purchasing fruits, vegetables, milk,
butter and cheese will be simple if
she follows the guide.
The wise bride will buy carefully, planning menus in advance so there
will be no waste and all leftovers will be used in menus.
Before she markets, she makes a list, looks through the advertise
ments to decide where she can get
the most for her money. After mak
ing sure her list is complete, she
goes to the grocers to do her buying. In this way she does not have
to .make too many trips and she can save her own time and that of
her grocer. She knows there is a premium on time in wartime.The bride also deplores waste,
especially in buying meats. To aid her in making out the meat list for
two, I have made out the following:
Beef:2 club steaks
2 cube steaks1 T-Bone steak
2 rib steaks1 pound round steak (for swiss steak)
2 pounds pot roastI flank steak (for staffing)
1 pound ground beef (for loaf)
Yt pound ground beef (for pat
ties and casseroles)
Yi pound liver . ‘
4 large frankfurters
Pork:
2 chops (butterfly, loin or shoulder)Hi pounds spareribs
4 to 6 slices thin Canadian bacon H pound ham slice
2 pounds fresh loin roast
2 pounds smoked butt (boned)
Ys pound bulk sausage or links
Yi pound bacon
% pound tenderloin
Veal:
2 pounds rolled ramp roast
2 loin chops
Lynn Says:
Here are the rules by which to substitute honey and corn syrup
for sugar in your recipes.
In using honey, substitute % to
1 cup of honey for each cup of
granulated sugar, but reduce the liqiiid in the recipe % cup for
each cup of honey -used.In using com syrup, substitute
2 cups of com syrup for each cup of granulated sugar. Reduce
'the liquid in the recipe by one-
fourth.If you wish to substitute corn
syrup for’only part of the sugar you may substitute I cup of com,
syrup for each Vi cup of sugar
and reduce your liquid one-eighth.
Because of the difference in fla
vors of substitute products, be
prepared to have a slight change .of flavor in the fpod you prepare with them.
Honey cakes and cookies, if al
lowed to ripen, will .have better flavor.

S UNDAY)CHOOL Lesson

L e sso n fo r J u n e 2 8
, Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission.
ALCOHOL FACTS VERSUS DRINKING PROPAGANDA
LESSON TEXT—Proverbs 21:17; 23:32; Isaiah 5:20-23; Hosea 4:11: Joel 3:2, 3; Epbestans 5:18.
GOLDEN TEXT—If sinners entice thee,
consent thou not.—Proverbs 1:10.
The facts are on the side of the one who opposes the liquor traffic, and they are so plentiful and so
devastating that the industry does
not care to face them. Their “best
bet” is to use propaganda so skill
fully prepared as to disarm the reader. If the propaganda is truth
ful, it is only because it has to be, and only in that measure.
Our lesson suggests several points in the liquor propaganda, each of which we can prove to be untrue.
I. They Say, “Enjoy. Life, That’s
What We Are Here For” (Prov. 21:
17).Consider the ads of the liquor
trade. They carry the beautiful lady, the brilliant young man, the
socially correct surroundings, riches,
ease, etc. They suggest that even
the grandmother in the home ap
proves the use of intoxicants to bring comfort and pleasure to the breadwinner in the home.
What is the truth? Man is not here for pleasure; he is here to
serve God. History demonstrates that the nation that lives for pleasure, especially in connection with
the use of intoxicants, is doomed to extinction.
II. They Say, “Liquor Is Not Dangerous” (Prov. 23:32).It is presented as a pleasant and
harmless stimulant, when in fact it
is known to science, to police and
social welfare workers as a narcotic which not only upsets digestion and
deranges physical processes but, most vicious of all, “affects person
ality by its action upon the certain
specific brain area. It disturbs,
confuses, slows down, and removes the restraints, the checks and bal
ances which make a well-rounded
personality. It is the highest func
tional level of the brain, the personality level, which is first put
into eclipse by the action of alcohol” (Carson Taylor).
III. They Say, “Those Who Oppose Liquor Are Fanatics” (Isa. 5:
20, 21, 23).The prophet answers that claim by
pointing out that those who favor the use of alcohol are the ones who
call evil good and good evil, etc. A little study of liquor propaganda as
it appears in the advertising of the
industry soon demonstrates that
fact. Of late they have been trying to convince us that beer is just a
soft drink for the home; Any policeman who has seen a man drunk on
beer, and any social or religious worker who has seen the destruc
tion it has wrought in the home and in society, knows that is not true.
IV. They Say, “Strong Men and
Leaders Are Drinkers” (Isa. 5:22).
Sadly enough, many of our leading men do indulge in liquor, but if the truth were out, it would be
known that they are less capable as leaders and weaker men for
their use of it. And who has not seen a leader become a poor dere
lict by the alcohol route, or a strong man become a jittery mental, mor
al, and physical wreck in the same way.
The work of a nation in both war and peace is done by sober, steady,
trustworthy men who have a “clear
head,’! not because they use a certain whisky but because they do not
use it.
V. They Say, “The Pleasure Is
Worth Price” (Hosea 4:11; Joel 3:2, 3).
The wicked ones who captured Israel felt they made a good trade
when they gave a boy for a harlot,
or exchanged a girl for wine. The modem system of making merchan
dise of boys and girls is not as open
ly crass as that, but when you figure the cost of alcohol to our land, be
sure to add in the girls who have gone into iniquity by the way of
tavern hostesses and the boys who have lost everything sacred because of “booze.”
Remember too that the beer mak
ers are deliberately using this war to cultivate a taste for beer in
millions of young men—their future customers—and we are letting
them get away with it, right in the
army camps.
' VI. They Say, “Drinking and Religion Go Well Together” (Eph. 5:18).
: The contrast of Paul gives that
claim the directbrand of falsehood. Being drunk with wine is the exact
opposite of spirituality. .
Liquor interests know that. if
church;, members can be led to believe that wine at dinner, beer as a
soft drink—and an occasional social cocktail—is not incompatible with
religious life, they will ha.ve effectu
ally shut the mouth of the opposition they fear the most—the church.
-Let pastors and church boards deal plainly and drastically with
drinking church members, and the church will profit spiritually, anil
and again become an effective means of stemming the tide of social iniquity which is engulfing our nation. - , •

Treat Constipation *
This G entler Way! $
Many folks say Uiat almost as bad os constipation are Larsh
catbartlcs and purges. TIiattS because many medicinal laxatives work this way: they either prod the Intestines Into action
or draw moisture into them from
other parts of the body.
Now comes news of a gentler and pleasanter way of treating constipation, for the millions of people with normal intestines whose trouble is due to lack of “bulk" in the diet. This way is by eating KELLOGG'S ALL-BRAN, a crisp, delicious cereal, and drinking plenty of w ater. ALL-BRAN, unlike many medici
nal laxatives, acts principally on"
ttie c o n te n ts o f th e colon and helps you to have easy, normal elimination. ALL-BRAN is made by Kellogg's in Battle Creek. If
your condition is not helped by
this simple treatment, better see
your doctor.

ByARTHUR STRINGER WN.0.$ER.VICE
THE STORY SO FAR: To save Nor*
land Airways from bankruptcy, Cruger
bas agreed to have Us partner, Alaa
Slade, fly a so-called scientist named
Frayne to tbe Anawotto In search of
the breeding ground of tbe trumpeter
swan. SladetS application for overseas
service with tbe army air corps bas
been rejected, but be is less disappointed
when be learns tbat the company can
stay In business, thanks to their client,
who has paid enougb to enable Cruger
to buy a new plane, a Lockheed. And
he is pleased when Cruger tells him
tbat Lynn Morlockt daughter ol the ‘‘dy
ing Padre” is not going abroad with her
Red Cross unit. Slade meets Lynn in
town and goes with her to help a man
who has been wounded In a fight. The
wounded man turns out to be Slim Tum-
stead, a flyer who bas lost bis license for
drinking and who is little better than
an outlaw.
Now continue with the story.
CHAPTER m
Slade pressed closer as the yellow-faced man, wiping his hands on
his apron, hurried out.
The pock-marked man righted the table and chairs as Lynn busied
herself loading a hypodermic.
"How is he?” asked Slade.
"He’s all right,” was the cool-not-
ed response. “But there’s a three- inch skull cut we’ll have to close
up. How did you get it?”
Slim’s lips twitched. But he remained silent.
“How about a drink first?” he
suggested, as Lynn turned back to him.
“You’ve had enough already,” she said, quietly Impersonal.
“Who gave you that jab?” per
sisted Slade. The look of the room clearly proclaimed that the fight had
been a regal one.
Slim still declined to speak. It was
the pock-marked man in the door
way who broke the silence."He got it from Wolf Winston,"
croaked the indignant landlord.
“And it’s another free-for-all chalked up against this place o’
mine.”
"Quiet, please,” was Lynn’s cool-
noted admonition.
Wolf Winston, Slade remembered,
was a whisky-runner who’d repeatedly proved his adroitness at evad
ing the outstretched arm of the law. He also recalled that Slim, once the
crack flyer for Colonial, had been twice grounded for drinking on duty.
Still later he had been linked up with Edmonton Scotty’s activities as-
a high-grader. And there’d been a
rumor or two that of late he’d been
running contraband liquor in from the coast ports.
Slade felt sorry for Tumstead, just
as he would feel sorry for any man of promise who threw away his
chances. Among flyers, he knew, there was a free-masonry that made
you forget a confrere’s passing faults. But for a year now Slim
had seemed stubbornly headed for trouble.
“This is going to hurt a little,”
Lynn was saying as she sterilized a bullet-probe, “but we’ve got to
make sure there’s no' glass in that cut before we close it up.”
“A drink would help a little,” Slim once more suggested.
“You can have a cigarette,” she
conceded, “when I put the stitches In.”
Slade produced the cigarette and held out his lighter.
Slim looked up at him with an eye that was still indifferently derisive.
“So the big boys took it away from you,” he observed.
“Took what away?” asked Slade,
resenting the note of mockery."That little tin-horn outfit of yours. I hear you’re folding up.”
“Not on your life,” countered
Slade.. “We’ve got a new ship and we’re going stronger than ever.” The indifferency went out of Tum-
stead’s eye.
“So you’ve got a new ship. That’s certainly worth remembering.” “Why?” challenged Slade.
Tumstead shrugged."Oh, I kind of thought tbe big
light had brought a famine in ships over here. Does that mean you're
going to. keep on flying the ice routes?”
“I am,” proclaimed Slade.
“You’ll change your tune,” Slim
said, “when you get the same dirty deal I got from Colonial.”Slade backed, away a little. He
had the natural pride of the flyer in flying. And the thought that one of the best in the service could swing
so far oS-center gave him a sinking feeling.
“I thought it was the other way round,” he observed.
Slim’s eye-flash of hostility did not escape the younger pilot.“Oh, I go my own way,” the man
on the couch announced with a laugh that was not without bitterness. But
a note of desolation in the voice
brought a surge of pity through
Slade..It was Lynn who spoke next. “You ought to Vave a week of
rest,” she observed as she encir-
tled her patient’s head with a white gauze bandage that gave him the
air of wearing a crown, slightly
tilted.
“Rest?” echoed Tumstead. His laugh was thin yet scornful. “I can’t afford to rest, lady. I’ve got things
to do.”Lynn glanced about at the blood
stained furniture.“You’ve lost a good deal of blood, remember. And you’ll need a new
dressing in a day or two. What
“You’ve had enongh already,” she said, quietly impersonal.
you’d better do is see Sister Nadeau over at St. Gabriel’s.”
“When?” asked the man with the
bandaged head.“Tomorrow or next day,” said
Lynn as she closed her bag and stood up.“I won’t be—”
But Tumstead, for some reason,
left that sentence unfinished. He shrugged and glanced at Slade. Then
his half-mocking gaze went back to Lynn.“I’d rather have you do my dress
ing tomorrow,” he said as he reached for her hand. Slade was
nettled' at the open insolence in that gesture.
“Hasn’t she done enough for
you?” he demanded.
Tumstead lifted a languid eye to his fellow-flyer.
“Is she letting you make her de
cisions?” he inquired. The derisive note in that inquiry brought Slade’s
gaze about to the girl’s face. But in that face he found nothing to help
him frame an answer.
“Let’s go,” Lyim said with her
first sign of impatience.Tumstead, stretched out full-
length on his couch, looked after them as they moved toward the door.
“Since you’re going,” he said, still casually insolent, “which way are
you heading? I mean you, Slade.”
The younger flyer swung about
and studied the blanched face under its swathing bandages.
‘Tm. flying into the Anawotto
country tomorrow,” he announced.Tumstead’s lips made a whistling
sound.''So they hooked you for that
flight!”
Slade, looking down, could see the older pilot smiling up at the ceiling.
“What do you know about it?” he demanded.
Tumstead continued to blink up at the ceiling.
“Not a thing, son, not a thing,” he answered ,with a listless sort ol indifference. His movement as he
turned to the wall was plainly one of dismissal.
Slade felt happier when he found himself in the' open sunlight, the balsam-scented open sunlight of
spring, with Lynn -walking along at bis side. She was close beside him,
yet he nursed an impression of her remoteness. And that impression
took on an edging of pain as .some inner voice told him she was the
one thing in all the wide world he
wanted.
“So you’re not going overseas?” he ventured as he noticed how the
sunlight gave glints of gold to her mahogany-brown hair.
“No, I’m going to meet Father at St. Gabriel’s,” die answered casu
ally, having discerned a light in his eyes which she found a little dis
turbing.She was, he knew, evading the
real issue."And after that?” he prompted.•Tm flying north , with Father'in
the morning/’ she announced. She found the courage, as she said it,
to meet his gaze.“What made you change your mind?” asked Slade, puzzled by her
loyalty to a life that was giving her so IitQe of what other women clam
ored for.“Father isn’t young any more. He can’t keep on forever. I was hop
ing' he’d give up a sort of work that’s too hard for him.”
“And too hard for you,” pro
claimed Slade. He was remembering, at the moment, how she and the
Flying Padre bad been grounded by a blizzard, the winter before, and had kept life in their .bodies by din
ing on their own mukluks of untanned sealskin, well boiled.
Thati Slade told himself, was no
life for a girl. She was of too fine a fiber for such frontier roughness. It
impressed him as too much like trying to grow a flower in a stamping
mill.“Did your father ask you to stay
on?” Slade questioned.“He’d never do that,” was her
prompt reply. “He’s too big and
fine to let his own interests come
first.""Of course,” said Slade, wondering if there was a hidden reproof
in that reply.' “But I was hoping,” Lynn continued, “that Father would give up
flying and settle down.”
Slade’s smile was brief and slight Iy bitter.
“That,” he affirmed, “is something not easy to get out of your system.”
“You’ll have to, some day,” she reminded him.
He seemed to catch a faint glimmer of hope from that.
“There’s only one thing,” he said,
“could ever turn me into a chair1 warmer."
“What?” she asked.
“You,” he answered with unexpected grimness. x
She did not look up at him. But she quickened her stride a little.
“I thought we weren’t going into
that again.”
He knew it was useless to argue
the point. But that newer look of firmness in her face brought an- an
swering firmness to his own slightly rebellious lips. For at the back of
his mind lurked a suspicion that more and more refused to stay
down.
“Were you going to the front be
cause Barrett Walden was there?” he asked. It was his effort to keep
all trace of bitterness out of his voice, apparently, that brought a small and womanly smile to Lynn’s
lips.
“Barrett Walden’s not at the front,” she said. “He’s in an in
struction camp at Aldershot.”
“But he wanted you to go over
seas?” pursued her none too happy companion.
“Barrett’s been a very good friend to Father. He’s never forgotten that Dad saved his life, and—”
“And you were his nurse at Fort St. John for four weeks,” cut in
the unhappy Slade. '
“Father,” Lynn was saying, “is very fond of Barrett.. And Etarrett
feels- the same way about the
Padre.” She walked on in silence for
a moment. “He’s been trying to
get hiir. a berth in the Department of Mines at Ottawa.”
“Where he’d mope like a caged
eagle,” was Slade’s slightly embittered comment.
“He’s not the moping; kind,” protested the girl.Slade maide no comment on that.
He remembered the flash of fire from those same eyes when he had once spoken of the Flying Padre’s
occupation as quixotic. ' /"A flyer never wants to give up,”
he observed.Lynn came to a stop. The face
she turned to her companion was a
clouded! one. i “That’s what frightens me, Alan,” she quietly .acknowledged, “They
don’t always stop in time.”
“The Padre knows the ropes all right,” Slade protested.“But something happened last
month,” tbe girl was saying, “when we were flying in to Coronation. It
was good weather and everything was going nicely, with Father at the
controls. Then I saw that something was wrong. I had to jump in
and straighten out the ship. Father, all of a sudden, didn’t know where
he was. Everything went blank, for a moment or two. He said, 'lat
er, it was like a switch turned ofl and then turned on again. But things like tbat mustn’t happen to a flyer.”
Slade shrugged and smiled, mercifully intent on easing the concern
out of her eyes.
“There's many a bush flyer gets over-tired;” he casually affirmed.
“That’s what Father said. He claimed he’d been careless about his eating and had been going too hard.
But when I saw him with those
empty eyes and that cold sweat on his face, I knew it went deeper than he'pretended.” -
Slade forced a laugh.“He’s clipped many a cloud since
then. And he’ll keep going until
they ground him for old age.”The clouded hazel eyes searched
his face.“Bui can’t you see, Alan,, what
I’m fighting for? Can’t you understand how. we all want security'
How, when we love someone, we have to think of his future?"Slade looked down' into the hazel
eyes. Their loveliness sent a wave of recklessness through him.
“It’s your future I’d rather thinx of,”, he asserted.
But the girl with the clouded eye* didn't seem to hear him.“I’m all Father has now."

The man who makes it the habit
of his life to go to bed at nine
ci’clock, usually gets rich and is
always reliable. Of course, go
ing to bed does not make him rich
—I merely mean that such a man
will in all probability be up early
in the morning and do a big day’s work, so his weary bones put him
tp j>ed early. - -
TRogues do their work at night.
Honest men work by day. It’s all a matter of habit, and good hab
its in America make any man rich.
Wealth is largely a result of habit. —John Jacob Astor.

O ur Object Now
Our object now, as then, is to
vindicate the principles of peace and justice in the life of the world
as against selfish and autocratic
power, and to set up among the
really free and self-governed peoples of the world such a concert of
purposes and of action as will henceforth insure the observance of . those principles.—Woodrow Wil
son.

The W ar fcm't fought in Ita t Holes alone
IT’S fought in the mind. It’s fought with a will to
win. It’s fought-with a belief in a cause worth
dying for.
TBat will, that belief, is known as morale.
Our enemies have had years of indottrination. They
have been conditioned to believe themselves part of
a "new order” ... to which the contribution of their
lives is small but all-important They believe them
selves cogs in a vast machine. -
Our soldiers do not fight that way—because they
do not live that way. Theits is the belief in the sanc
tity of the individual.
To maintain their morale in the American way, the
USO has devoted all its time and energy since ^prac
tically the beginning of conscription.
It has done .this by staffing and maintaining club
houses near all training camps and in our outlying
possessions ftom Alasks to the Caribbean.
Today its work is far greater than ever, Its need
for funds to cany on more than doubled.
The VSO needs jour help more than ever before!
High government and military officials—including
General MacArthur-have praised the work done by
the USO- and recognized its importance in the war
effort
But it needs recognition from you—recognition in
the way of dollars.and cents. For the six national
agencies which comprise the USO are publicly sup*
ported.
Now above all times, to make your dollars count;
give to the USO!
Send your contribution to your local USO Com
mittee or to'National Headquarters, USO, Empire
State Building, New York, N. Y.

WAH BONDS
Th. Army’s fighter planes are the finest In the world and develop
speeds up to 400 miles an hour. They cost approximately $100,000
each, provide fighter escorts lor the huge flying fortresses, and combine speed, range, altitude and blistering fire power.
America’s plane production plants are working over-time turning out
thousands of these fighter planes.
War Savings Bonds will help pay for them and the American people
are committed to at least ten percent of their income to finance their
cost in War Bonds. Every American, buying his share every pay day,
will make it comparatively easy to supply our army and navy air corps
with these supreme Eagles of the air.
