"NJ EW YORK.—Heroes are almost necessarily young these days. Hence the more news in the stand of Edouard Herriot and Jules . . . . . JeanneneyA Reminder That tA J rTance There W ill Always Be’ ler, and for France.70 and M. Jeanneney is 78. There is an old proverb, “A wise old man’s word is worth more than a young buzzard’s sword.” M. Jeanneney is president of the senate and M. Herriot president of the chamber of deputies, in the over thrown parliament which still lives in the hearts of true Frenchmen. They were big news in 1934 and 1935, when they were not implicated in the fateful Stavisky pawn shop scandal, precursor of the inside job ■which delivered La Belle France, roped and hog-tied to Hitler. Stavisky might have been Mark Twain’s “Man Who Cor rupted Hadleyburg.” Smeared were “ Cbautemps, Laval, Flan- din, Tardieu, Daladier and pret ty nearly every top-hole politi cian in France, but not these old-timers, who long before had proven both their honesty and loyalty to the republic. “If there were one honest man among you I would have saved you.” France may invoke Scrip ture and remind the world that she came through with two. The bullet-headed, bull-necked, pompadoured Herriot, former peda- gog and for 25 years mayor of Lyons, was long known as the Theodore Roosevelt of France, super charged with energy. He won the premiership in Jtme, 1924, and he and his cabinet of . radical Socialists held power until the following April. Then as later the radical Socialist party was'full of termites and included in its leadership many of the men who later supervised the moral and political collapse of their country. From then, Herriot was an outsider. He rose again In 1933 defeat ing, appropriately, the Tardien- Laval faction. French politics, in those years, was no place for an honest man and he soon was on the sidelines again. He be longs in the picture of staunch - bourgeois liberalism. Jules Jeanneney, long a bearded patriarch, is an old-school politician who, like M. Herriot, made his political career in the provinces. Sev eral times he narrowly missed being president of France. COME people were, talking the other night about econometrics, ecology, geo-politik, and logistics. We asked one of them how about it and he There Appears No said: “ I’m M ovement Against a stranger DictionarylnRation ^ ^ e,, goes for a lot of us these days, with new names and events outrunning both dictionaries and encyclopedias. Our fat and conservative old dictionary doesn’t list econometrics, but here it is, on the financial page, thoroughly respectable. The news is that Jacob Baker, formerly Harry Hopkins’ right- hand man, down among the al phabetical folk at Washington, has been elected vice president of the Institute of Applied Econ- ometrics, Inc. As we get it, after asking many innocent by standers, econometrics has to do with teaming statistics and eco nomic theory, in mutual aid, by which the statistics take on meaning and the theory becomes possibly provable or plausible. Within the last four days we have pegged news stories touching on all of the above four new bright facets of dinner-table talk. They have to do with post-war reconstruction. Whatever happens, we’ll have a -word for it. Mr. Baker was born and. reared in Colorado, was graduated from the Colorado Agricul tural college and the University of California school of engineer ing, found plenty of adventure as a mine manager in Mexican hot spots, and started his Chi cago career in the service of oil, utility and engineering firms. He is genial and baldish, casually dressed, usually smoking a pipe, and is the last man you would pick for such precision and incisiveness as his new title would suggest. - We used to meet him at singing parties, a'few years ago, at which he was Jake Baker, quite unlike the Jacob Baiter of the consulting engineering firm of House, Baker and Associates of Chicago. He was a good catch- as-catch-can close-harmony singer and everything about him was at ■variance with his career of zig-zag price charts, co-efficients of expansions, torques and obsolescence.

A SEftIES OF SPECIAL ARTICLES BYTHE LEADING A R CORRESPONDENTS' ThesJ Bombs Fall on Kobe By Gene Casey (WH V Feature—Through special arrangement .with Collier’s Weekly) Right now we’re riding in the nose of an army bomber, listening in on the interphone, with the navigator- bombardier, Lieut. Howard Sessler of Arlington, Mass.It’s the morning of April 18, and we’ve just taken off from Shangri- La. The weather’s clear, visibility unlimited. It’s a little windy, though, and the seas, just 50 feet beneath us, are choppy. There’s nothing in sight, and then LieUt. Donald Smith, the pilot, spots ' something ahead that looks like a submarine surfacing. He calls into the interphone: “We’re entering the danger zone, now. Keep on the alert. Surface vessel on our right- hand side.” Jap Fishermen Wave. “I see it, sir,” comes from Sergt. Edward Saylor in the rear gun tur ret.We draw closer and it turns out to be a fishing boat with a square white sail. Then we see a lot of the boats. The Jap fishermen wave up at us with both hands. " We can’t tell whether they are afraid, or think we’re friendly planes. Lieut. Griff Williams, the co-piiot, sings out: “Oh-oh! There’s the land.” It’s Fujiyama, and Doc White, the flight surgeon, chips in: “We ought to be seeing some action pretty soon.” We’re flying down along the coast now, towards Nagoya bay, and there looks to be a thousand Jap fishing boats out on the water. Howard Sessler, up in the nose of the ship, finds his trigger finger getting itchy. He pleads with the pilot: “Here’s a good chance to sink some of these ships. Fly over them and I’ll give them a few bursts.” "Better not.” Smitty’s voice comes cool and calm over the interphone. “They may think we’re friendly air craft if we don’t fire. This is sup posed to be a surprise.”Sergeant Saylor coughs. "trtiess I’ll unbutton my collar,” he an nounced. “Getting a little tight.” Sessler sees the first landmark, the brick lighthouse on the point at Nagoya, bay. He calls into the in terphone. “There’s the lighthouse, Smitty. Here’s where we turn in.” We Head for Kobe. Smitty climbs to 4,000 feet to get over the mountains and heads due west for Kobe. The weather’s still clear and it’s not bumpy oveT the mountains.Then everyone sees Kobe. It looks just like it does on the map. Sess ler spots the flames from blast fur naces. “Those are the steel foun dries straight ahead, Smitty,” he says. “That’s where we start our bombing run from.” Smitty’s voice sounds grim over the interphone. “I see it. Give ’em hell!” He dives down to 1,500 feet and levels off. Sessler sings out: “Bomb bay doors open!”He lets his first bombs go at the Kiwasaki aircraft factory. They burst and a shower of smaller in cendiary bombs rain down. The plane is doing better than 300 miles an hour as the second train of borhbs goes straight at a big machine shop.We can’t see much of what’s hap pening below. We drop some more bombs on the dockyards and still more on another aircraft factory on the edge of Kobe bay. Doc White is fiat on his stomach, looking out the camera door and taking pictures. “Bombs away!” Sessler sings out. “Doors closed.” The plane picks up a little' speed after the bomb bay doors are shut. Time to Be Going. The anti-aircraft opens up. We can see. some bursts' too close for comfort, and the tracers going by. “About time to get out of here!” observes Smitty. Hedivesout over the harbor and we skim along about ten feet above the surface, doing way over 300. Doc White says, “Boy! I got pic tures of everything! Sure hope I get ’em back okay.” We’re just beginning to breathe a little more easily when Smitty catches sight of two Jap pursuit planes practicing dives at a Jap submarine. He calls out to Saylor, “Two pur suit ships on our left. Don’t think they see us. Oh—here they come!” But he eases the throttles forward and in three minutes the planes are out of sight. He eases back on the throttle again, and we’re breezing along." . Jap Destroyers Open Up.We spot three Jap destroyers and don’t pay much attention until they face to fire at us. Then Smitty cir cles around out of range and we head back to Shangri-La. “Next time,” comments Howard Sessler, "we’ll do ever more, I hope!” I |\JOW thsj ’ as to and that hi as an Ultil and illumiif style prefel The firstl mind is thl fair collegil in favor of wear.

The first thought that comes to mind is the enthusiasm with which fair collegiates have gone “all out” in favor of cottons for year-round wear. The major recognition they are giving to smart cottons in as sembling their back-to-school ward robes this fall is really most significant. Take for example the darling ted dy-bear coat shown to the left in the above illustration. This adorable model is made of a white fleece woven on a cotton backing and lined with gay multi-striped broadcloth which accents the cuffs and front closing, edges the pockets and forms the collar. College girls figure this to be a wise buy in that they’ll be as warm as the teddy the fleece re sembles when they wear a coat of this type, and being "comfy” as well as charming helps a lot when it comes to lustily cheering from ,one’s vantage spot in the stadium. Take it from the college vote that here is a coat that says V-for-Vic- tory in no uncertain terms. Another decision among campus enthusiasts is that they will be need ing plenty of snappy sweaters to keep them in comfort and in fash ion at the same time. Maybe a college girl’s clothes allowance isn’t just what it used to be, what with her being the girl behind the boy behind the bombers, by buying up those war bonds. The thing to do so as to keep pace with fashion’s demands is to bring your last year’s cardigan up to date by trimming it- with oodles of chic buttons as the smart ones on' the sweater to the right in the group illustrated in the above picture definitely declares. Thrifly college girls who are doing everything to save for bonds have discovered, too, that it’s patriotic •to niake sewing their hobby. Now adays sewing is an easy road that leads to fashion success and, be sides, it is considered smart these days to “make your own.” With the aid‘of one of the new thermo plastic dress forms you can cut dress construction time in half by eliminating repeated try-ons. It’s worth while knowing that your local sewing center can mold your form in half an hour. And then, with the fashion short cuts they will teach you, you’ll be all set to do a grand job at home sewing. . If you feel the urge to sew you might try your hand at a jerkin cos tume like that shown centered in the group pictured above. This is a style easily made, especially if you provide yourself at the start with a good pattern that makes simplicity its theme. College girls adore jerkin costumes, for with a different blouse they may be made appropriate to any occasion in a jiffy. Then, too, jerkins are so chic and so flattering and so youthful looking. Brick red is the color of the fine wale corduroy that fashions this jerkin dress. The billowy blouse is a golden yellow, which goes to show how wholeheartedly campus dwell ers have gone in for high color. A smart idea is to write your name in your own handwriting across the front of your jerkin blouse, just be low the square neckline then fill it in with a signature stitch quickly on your sewing machine. Dear to every collegiate heart is pretty lounging apparel like that pictured above in the inset. The “lat est” as shown at the national wash apparel show recently held in Chi cago is cuffless satin rayon pajamas done in blue for the pajamas and peach rayon satin for the quilted jacket. Please underscore the word “quilted..” for there’s a perfect craze for things quilted, from negligees to smart daytime jackets with hats and bags to match. Released by Western Newspaper Union. With Velveteen Velveteen is being combined with other fabrics this season in effective ways. When brown velveteen is paired with brown and' beige hound’s-tooth check woolen the an swer is ultra smartness. That is exactly the case in regard to this charming jacket costume. A sug gestion of the military appears in the double-breasted gold button fas tening of Ilie brown velvet jacket. The skirt is of the brown and beige check. The jacket edges and simu lated pockets are overcast in beige yam. The newest fashions fea ture considerable yarn stitching used as trimming. A little costume like this is ideal for early fall, with its warm colors and soft fabric. Memo to a Modem: Buy Pretty Things Here are' a few fashion items that the modern girl might jot down in her notebook as “must haves.” Sweaters with-brushed surfaces, for shaggy effects are the thing this sea son. Add corduroy separates to jug gle as you please, also a swank cor duroy coat and a corduroy suit in beige or green or bright red. A jumper dress of denim, - gabardine or corduroy should be included, and any and everything quilted from a house robe to a hat and muff two some. The new “jive coat” which is a 30-inch topper is wanted in wool. A rabbit’s hair or wool jersey dress with embroidery touches. Velveteen dirndl skirt. Gingham pajamas, neatly tailored and a gingham night gown to match. Flannellette nightie for cold winter wear. Velvet date dress in a luscious color. Cotton gabardine raincoat. Necklace gaily painted acorns. And she will add dozens of little hair bows, flowers and fantasies. Spotted furred tuxedo cloth coat (hat to match). Something in the new purple or violet tones. Lace blouse to wear with afternoon velvet suit. CowlJJeckline Much attention is being given to creating flattering necklines. A “newsy” message Crom style centers is the revival of cowl neck treat ments. Very new and smart is the black frock that has a cowl drape about the neckline, done in a con trast-color fabric. Often deep cava lier cuffs match the cowl. If collar and cuffs are detachable, one can make the black frock do double service. A cyclamen pink cowl on black is very effective. FIRST-AID to the AILING HOUSE By ROGER ft. WHITMAN Boger B. Whitman—WNU Features. WATERPROOFING GARAGE FLOOR FN LAYING a concrete floor in a 1 garage or outbuilding, or in the cellar of a house, for that matter, it is a simple matter to do the job in such a way that the floor will be diy, even in wet weather. When laid directly on the earth, a con crete floor picks up moisture, which passes through and evaporates in the space above. Dampness in the air leads to the rusting of tools, while a car coming in during a rain is slow to dry. On the other hand, with a dry concrete floor, the air remains dry; there is but little rust ing, and there are the other advan tages of comparatively dry air. Laying a floor that will remain dry adds so little to the cost and effort, that it should not be neglected. The job begins with packing and level ing the earth, which is then covered with sheets of heavy tar paper over lapped by at least a quarter of the width. Edges and ends are carried up the wall for a few inches, and the concrete is poured on top. That is all there is to it. Crusted Chimney. Q.: The chimney of this house has a bend and two stoves are con nected with it. We burn wood, and the crust that forms in the chimney closes the. opening so much that smoke comes into the rooms. How can the chimney be cleaned? How can I prevent the crusting? A.: The crust is due to the con densation of vaporized sap and gum in the wood. There would be little or no condensation if you had a stronger draft in the chimney. But as it is, the draft is greatly weak ened by connecting two stoves to the flue. For best results, only one fire should be connected to a chimney. The bend in the chimney also helps to reduce the draft. By far your best move will be to rebuild the chimney with a separate flue for each fire. You will find full instruc tions for the correct construction of a chimney in a pamphlet issued by the National Board of Fire Under writers, Chicago, HI. Mixing Colored Paint. Q.: When I repaint our house my wife wants certain colors; but as far as colors are concerned I do not know much about them. I have been told to use white paint and to mix my own shades, but do not know what to mix with white to get the effects that I want. Where can I get the information? A.: Most of the large paint manu facturers publish handbooks that should be helpful to you. Instead of starting with white paint, it should be simpler for you to use ready- mixed colored paint and to modify the shades shown in the color sample card if you do not like them. Your dealer should be able to help you in this. Floor Board Cracks.NQ.: There, are large open joints between the wide floor boards in my very old house. How can they be filled so that they will stay closed? A.: With the swelling and shrink ing of the floor boards through the changing season, any ordinary crack filler will fall out. For per manence, the filler should be strips of wood cut to fit and nailed and glued into place. The first step should be to clean out the dust by running a wire the length of the crack and using a \vacuum cleaner. The boards should be solidly nailed to the beams by toe-nailing at their edges. The strips should be given the same finish as the floor. Calcimine on Wallpaper. Q.: Is it advisable to put calcimine over wallpaper? If so, is there some special kind to use? A.: If your wallpaper is on good and tight, you may be able to cover it with calcimine. If it is not stuck on firmly, the water in the calci mine may loosen the paper, which would then fall off. If the paper has a pattern, this would probably show through, although not unpleas antly. You would find that casein .paint (also a cold water paint) is a better'paint to use than calcimine, as it does not rub or wash off. Can be had in colors as well as white.Casein Paint Q.: I am thinking of covering plain wallpaper with casein paint, but am told that if I wish to paper the rooms next year it could not be done, for the casein paint would pre vent the present paper from being taken off. Is the casein paint really waterproof? A.: Casein paint is waterproof to the extent that water will not take it off. But it is absorbent, and when well soaked with water, the paper underneath would, I believe, become loosened. Of course, the quality of the paint and of the paper would make a difference but I think that you would be safe in going ahead. Leaking Roof. Q. During the winter, slush and snow backed, up against our gutters and leaked down the inside walls. The roof and gutters had been checked over and are in perfect con dition. What can you suggest? A.: The- trouble is probably in the 'position of the gutter, which I assume to be hung on the eaves. It should be so placed that its out side edge is no higher than the slope of the roof, so that snow can slide over it. If this edge of the gutter is too high, it will act as a dam, and water-will back up on the roof. (JHtftui G U c m b e M \ L e t’s H a v e a R e a l F o o tb a ll S u p p e r!

It makes no differ ence whether you have been to one of the big games or whether you are going to feed the hungry crowd who come in from playing in the nearest available field, the uppermost thought in your mind is good, hot, appetizing food. Smart management dictates a de licious hot dish that you whisk out of the oven, a crisp salad for balance and contrast to the meal, and a smooth, light dessert. Your crowd will be thirsty, too, so don’t forget coffee for the grown-ups and a hot, chocolaty drink for the children.

Alan Slade suspects a “ scientist” nam ed Frayne, who .Is supposed to be hunting swans, but who turns out to be after bigger game: He has the plane and is using it to carry pitchblende, a valoable source ef power, to the coast for shipm ent to G erm any. A pilot nam ed Slim Turn* stead is flying for him . Snrprlsed near their cam p, Slade is knocked ancon* scions by F rayne's assistant, K arnell, and Is taken to a deserted island by Tum stead and left there. When he fails to return Lynn Mortock, daughter of the “ flying Padre,” starts out In her fa ther's plane to find him , while her - fa* ther and two old prospector friends of Alan nam ed Zeke and M inty attem pt to fight It out with Frayne’s crowd. Lynn finds Slade, exhausted, ragged and nearly starved, and they return to Frayne's cam p to find that Zeke and MinQr are ' In the m idst of a fight with K arnell. The ■ Padre is In Slade's plane looking for Lynn. Slade and the prospectors have cornered Karnell and are chasing hiib into the m arshland. Now continue with the story. CHAPTER XVIII "Why do you say that’s Karnell?” Slade asked as he strode on at Minty's side. “It’s Karnell all right,” averred Minty. “Zeke told me that when he sidled back for a handful o’ shells.” -:“Good," said Slade. “I want to meet up with Karnell.” “Make sure it ain’t an unexpected meetin’,” Minty warned him. “I’ve got my eye peeled,” said Slade. He stopped short and blinked across the ridge-crests. “What’s more, I think that’s our friend Zeke crawling along that hogback.” .5 Minty stared in the direction the other pointed. "That’s Zeke all right,” he ad mitted. "He sees us,” cried Minty as he rounded a sheltering rock. “But this is enemy territory, son, and we’d best keep under what cover we can find.” Yet Slade, he soon saw, was mak ing no effort to keep under coyer. The taivny-headed bush pilot was advancing down the slope that led to the matted bogland veined with open water. For far out on that soggy tundra, plunging along from tussock to tussock, was a heavy shouldered man with a rifle in his hands. "That’s Karnell,” cried Slade. “Don’t let him get away.” ■ Minty promptly dropped on one knee and took a pot shot at the fugitive. .But Karnell ducked in time to hear a bullet whine over his head. Then he clambered up on an island fringed with shrub-willow and faced his pursuers. Both Slade and Minty, when they saw the leveled rifle, flung themselves flat on the. wet soil. They lay without moving, until the gunshot echo died away. Karnell, looking into his rifle chamber, saw that his last shell had been fired. His shout, however, was one of defiance as he turned and leaped from his willow-fringed is land to a runway of broken sedge- tufts leading deeper into the mus keg. ..He shouted again, hoarsely, as he went panting onward from sedge- tuft to sedge-tuft. He looked for islets with a show ing of clump-willow, for in those root - bound spaces he knew he could always find the promise of support. Across two of these he leaped. Then in his haste he sprang for an island of wire grass. It was a sizable-looking island and to the eye it had an aspect of solidi ty. But instead of being an island it was merely a floating raft of tangled vegetation, a tissue of fiber- bound peat that parted and sank under his weight. It went down slowly. But as it went it left nothing ponderable for the groping long arms to catch at. The churning water rose to the wide shoulders. It rose to the screaming throat. Then it closed over the back-flung head and a few bubbles appeared between the tatters of fiber-bound , peat that floated on the water. Slade, clinging to a willow-clump, saw the stirred-up water grow quiet again. “Let’s get back,” he said. “I’ve still got Tumstead.to deal with,” Then he stopped short, arrested by the familiar drone of a distant plane. He watched the plane as it passed overhead. “That’s the Padre,” he said as Minty came up with him. The old sourdough blinked after the passing wings that dipped and circled for a landing and then were lost to sight. “I thought mebbe she was that ghost plane there’s so much talk about.” Slade’s laugh was harsh. “There’ll be less talk about ghost planes,” he proclaimed, “when I get my hands on Tumstead.” Slade held out a warning hand as he came' to the crest of the ridge. For above the scrub that furred the valley slope before him he de tected a wisp of smoke. "What’s worryin’ you, son?” de manded Minty as he leaned on his rifle. Slade, instead of answering, moved forward until he had a better view of the valley bottom. There, in a rock bowl beside a purling dream, he saw a campfire. Squat- "It’s Tumstead. He said he was ready to give up.” ting over it was a ragged figure, holding a skillet with a stick tied, to its handle. “Why, it’s Zeke,” gasped Minty. Zeke, startled by their advance, scrambled for his rifle. But the poised barrel slowly lowered as he identified the intruders. Slade felt a wave of weakness go through his body. _ He realized, as he subsided beside the fire where the tea pail bubbled, that he was very tired. “Why, Lindy, you loot all in,” cried Zeke, conscious of that sud den slump. Slade stiffened his shoulders. But it took an effort. “I’m all right,” he protested: “Where’s Frayne?” “We’ll go into that,” said Zeke, “after I’ve bucked you up with a swallow o’ hot tea and some sowbelly.” “Where’s Frayne?” repeated Slade. Zeke, busy over his fire, caught the determination in the other’s query. “That’s what I’d give an arm to know,” he admitted. “There ain’t been a pop out o’ him for two hours now. But how about that orang utan mate o’ his?” !Zeke showed no emotion when told of Kamell’s end. He merely direct ed a reproving eye at-his shack partner. You should’ve got that buzzard on the wing.” Slade found his boiled tea strong and bitter. But it washed away his weariness. “How about the other man, Tum stead?” Zeke blinked about at the encir cling spruce ridges. “That bird seems to be hidin’ out on us, same as his boss.” Slade was on bis feet again. “I’ve got to save that Lockheed,” he said as he reached for Minty’s rifle. “What’s a Lockheed?” queried Zeke. “Our stolen plane. The plane they’ve been ferrying that pitch blende out with.” Zeke reached for the battered tea pail and drank from it. Then he wiped his mouth and essayed a head-jerk toward the West. “She’s there,” he announced. “And she’ll stay there.” “What does that mean?” ques tioned the startled Slade. “It means I snaked through the scrub and climbed aboard her. And bein’ there, jus’ to make sure o’ things, I twisted her fuel-line out.” “You what?” barked Slade. “I jus’ anchored her where she lay,” answered Zeke, “by tearin’ out her feed-pipe. I emptied her tank, son. And I ain’t got that smell o’ gasoline out of my pants yet.” “And you didn’t see Frayne?” “Not hide nor hair o’ him.” Slade stood thoughtful a moment. “Then what’s he up to? He can’t get out of this territory without a plane. Yet he can’t use that Lock heed. And he can’t skulk back in these hills for long. We’ve got to know where he is.” It was Zeke who spoke next. "That’s what your Flyin’ Padre says. He and his girl’s busy on their two-way radio over there at the lakeside, tryin’ to call Edmon ton and Churchill and Motmtie head quarters at Coppermine. Said he reckoned it was about time for the air patrol to edge in on this.” “We can’t wait for. that,” an nounced Slade. “And 'if I know Frayne he won’t wait for it.” A happy thought lightened Minty’s seamed old face. “How’re you t’ know he ain’t Iy- in* out there with a- bullet hole through his head? He was sniped at considerable, by Zeke and me, even if our eyes ain’t what tlfey used to be.”“That would still leave Tum stead,” said Slade. “I’m going to get my plane and scout over these ridges.”.Zeke proceeded to mix a fresh por tion of flapjack batter. “Well, I hope you round ’em up pronto,” he announced. “For grub’s gittin’ low with us two, Lindy, and I’ve a hankerin’ to amble back to that Kasakana shack of ours and know a considerable spell o’-peace and quietness.” Slade made no response to that. He merely swung Minty’s rifle over his shoulder and started up the slope that stretched between him and the lake where his plane rested. His glance at the sun told him the long northern afternoon would soon be merging into its equally long eve ning. And there were things to be done before the brief hours of sub arctic darkness set in. It was on the crest of the second ridge that he caught sight of Lynn. She hesitated, apparently bewil dered as to what course to take. But, once she heard Slade’s shout, she quickened her steps and came pant ing up the slope. “What is-it?” he asked, arrested by the alarm on her face, “It’s Tumstead,” she skid. “He came to Father, just now, with a white rag on the end of a stick. He said be was ready to give up. Frayne, he claimed, was lying wounded over the hill and had to have help.” Slade’s face darkened. “Did your father believe that liar?” “He said he had to,” was Lynn’s panted reply. “He’s gone out to Frayne. He said he couldn’t let a man die without help.” “I don’t like the look of this,” said Slade. “Where is Tumstead now?” ' “He pretended to go back with Father. But something tells me he didn’t.” “Where’s your plane?” Slade promptly questioned. “At the lakeside there,” said Lynn, leading him to slightly higher ground and pointing to the expanse of blue water that could be seen through the spruce tops. “We’d been working on our radio. Father’d been having trouble in sending and found a transmitter fuse had crystallized Buid had to be replaced. I was back in the cabin, testing out the set, 1 when Tumstead came down the bank and talked to Father.” Slade peered through the trees, to a lower arm of the lake. The ten sion went from his face when he saw the Snow-Ball Baby still moored there. . “Let’s go,” he proclaimed. “Go where?” asked Lynn. “Back to your ship,” answered Siade, “or to mine. I’ve got some quick scouting to do around this neighborhood.” “Alan, you can’t fly,” she told him. ‘-‘You mustn’t.” Slade, looking down at her, smiled at the determination in her face.' “I’ve got to fly,” he announced. “That’s my business.” He was moving on along the ridge crest toward the lake, disregarding the restraining hand she limced in his arm. "But you’re as foolish as Father, she maintained. “You’re in no condition to fly. You’re tired and worn out. You’ve got to have proper food and sleep before you’re fit for tak ing chances like this.” The tremor in her voice brought him to a stop. He stood looking down at her again, but this time he looked down at her as though he were seeing her after long absence. Through his dull fog of fatigue and anxiety the loveliness of her face came slowly home to him. “I’m used to taking chances,” he said, with a little of the earlier ring of iron gone from his voice. “Then I’lT take them with you,” ^he announced. “If you go up, I go too.” His thin face softened with a smile. “Am I worth it?” he asked, con scious of how little room for kindli ness life had been leaving them. “You are to me,” she said with the' forlorn and final candor that walks hand in hand with despera tion. She even moved a little closer to him. “I love you.” He forgot hunger . and weariness as he took her in his arms and held her close. “I have to be worth it,” he told her. as he smoothed back .her hair. Then his laugh was brief and bitter. “They haven’t left us much room for .this sort of thing, have they?” “We mu*t make room,” she protested, clinging to him. But as he Ufted his head she could see the hardening light in the Viking blue eyes. “Let’s go,” he said for the second time. !TO BE CONTINUED) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY ICHOOL L esson By HAROLD L. LUNPQUIST, D. D.Of Tne Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by W estern Newspaper Union.)

GOLDEN TEXT—W hat things were gain to m e, those I counted loss lor Christ.— Philippians 3:7. Loyalty is undoubtedly one of the' finest traits of mankind. Because of its strength, its fidelity to duty, etc., shrewd men have learned to play upon man’s loyalty, making it serve evii and ignoble ends. Un worthy causes, having thus gained the interest of man by fair means or foul, have demanded blind loyal ty. Even in the carrying out of crime there has been the suggestion that there is some kind of a code of honor, a loyalty among thieves. AU this does not change the fact that thgre is a high and holy im pulse in man to stand true to the right; and in the Christian, to be found ever loyal to the Christ, whose we are and whom we serve. Faith in Christ (our lesson of last week) is rightly followed by loyalty to Him: It manifests itself in three ways. I. FoUowing Christ (Mark 2:14- 17). Without obedience there is no use talking about loyalty. When Jesus said: “FoUow me,” Matthew (Levi) arose and foHowed. He was a sin ner (v. 17), a man of the despised caUing of tax-gatherer (v. 14), but he was ready for the caU of Jesus. Notice also that foUowing Christ carries with it the privilege and ob ligation (it is both) of making Him known to our friends. Matthew did not wait until he had made a new circle of friends and then invite them to a feast. He celebrated his entrance upon the new life of faith by a friendly and effective testimony before his friends who were publi cans and sinners. Notice the words of Jesus in verse 17. It is not good people, satisfied in their own self-righteousness, who get to heaven. It is sinners, saved by grace, who wiU there magnify the Saviour’s name.H. Faithfulness to Christ (John 6:66-69). It is one thing to begin, but quite another to persevere in weU doing. Jesus had been doing many miracles and a host of foUowers had flocked to Him, He had not only done great deeds, but had spoken beautiful words about the Fatherhood of God, the power of the Holy Spirit, etc. He had fed the five- thousand, and they liked that too.But now He had talked about a broken body, about partaking of His flesh and His blood, and they did not like it. This reached too deeply .into the necessity for a per sonal -spiritual ^experience, and one that spoke of sacrifice, and many of the disciples “walked no more with him” (v. 66). How perfect a picture of the "religious experience” of multitudes of men and women in our day. The true disciple, however, stands truest in. just such an hour. “We believe,” said Peter, and he spoke better than ever before in his life. “We don’t understand everything (that’s the thought back of “To whom shall 'we go?”), but we be lieve, and we will stand fast.” Blessed word of loyalty I- Observe that Peter and his breth ren recognized Christ as the “Holy One of God,” that is, God’s Son in a unique and intimate sense, One dose to and participating in the holiness of God. Loyalty will not hold on any lesser concept of Christ. There is no incentive to real service and sacrifice in the watered-out religious faith of the modernistic lib eral I In. Forsaking AU for Christ (Phil. 3:7-11). There were a number of things in the life of Paul as a natural man of which he was justifiably proud, but which in the light of his relation ship to Christ paled into insignifi cance. The best this world can of fer looks like rubbish (v. 8)—which it really is—when one catches a glimpse of Jesus Christ. Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look fuU In His wonderful face. And the things of earth win grow strangely dim In the light of His glory and grace. However, that experience of Paul’s was only the beginning of a life of devotion to the Lord, which is expressed in words the depth of which we cannot fully plumb. What does it mean to know “the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made com fortable unto his death”? We do not fully know, but certain we are that it speaks of a fellowship with Christ that is very deep and inti mate; a life of power, because He lives in and. works through the be liever; a sharing with Him of the hatred and bitterness of the world, yes, of death, if need be, for Him, in the assurance of resurrection. This is an “all out” Christian ex-. perience, nothing held bgck, nothing thought to be too difficult or trying— everything gladly given in unstinted love and devotion to Christ. Now the Christian church is languishing for the want of those who will for sake all to follow Him in complete faithfulness. ” rjOUGHBOY, Potato Bug, Jack- U f of-all-Trades, News Hound, Yankee Bugler—all these and more too is' Rags, the tea towel pup.

OCTOBER7.1942 TOOL USERS AND TOOL OWNERS In a recent advertisement signed by a well-known business -Concern, this statement appeared: "My boss has 14 Grand tied up in me.” Wbat that slangy use of words meant was that the average em ployee in industry represents a capi tal- investment—in property, plant, machinery and equipment—of $14,- 000. In other words, labor has jobs only when some business man, or group of investors, puts up’ the money necessary for the creation of jobs. It was well said recently, by a student of economics, that men in governmental- authority too often forget that while the rights of work ers are being considered, the owner of the tools used by workers must also have some consideration. After this war is over, the plants now devoted to military needs must be re-converted to peace-time activity; must be re-tooled for the kind of production they were engaged in when it became necessary to tool up for war. Labor will expect peace time jobs then, but somebody must provide the money for re-converting and re-tooling. That money cannot be forthcoming unless enough profits or capital can be stored up to meet such requirements. 1 0 % OF INCOME ISOUR .

Take it away and the torch of liberty will surely flicker out. The conquered people know — now— how precious this freedom is. Today, they can’t speak freely without fear of the bite of a whip, the slow torture of a concentration camp, or death. But freedom of speech will not be taken away from Americans! To preserve that liberty we’re working and fighting and sacrificing as never before. What’s more, we’re going to win this war! Our enemies can find smashing proof of that in the courage and the determination of Ameri can fighting men; in the overwhelming number of planes and tanks and guns that are rolling off American production lines; and in the huge volume of war materials and supplies and fight ing men being transported smoothly and ef ficiently by the American railroads. The Southern Railway System, like other American railroads, has pledged its all to the winning of this war. We’re terribly in earnest about it, and therefore we are placing war transportation needs ahead of everything else. Last year the Southern carried more freight than it has ever carried before in all its I««g history, 31 percent more than it carried in 1940; and 46 per cent more than it carried during World War I; and more than twice as much as it carried in the depression years of 1932-33*34. Most of this increase has been due to war de mands; raw materials for armament, tank and airplane factories; materials and supplies to equip, and food to maintain, our rapidly ex panding land, air and naval forces. In the first half of this year the volume of freight handled by the Southern again broke all records, exceeding die first half of 1941 by 37 percent and topping by far every previous mark of a half century of service.. We are proud of this achievement. Our pride is the kind that drives us on to even greater achievements. And in so serving the nation with our best in this great emergency, we are learning how better to "serve the South” when Victory has been won and the God-given right of free men to speak without fear has been guaranteed for the generations to come.

MOCESV CHOOL IMPROVED NIFORM INTERNATIONAL esson the duller blue wings of the plane in frpht of the watching girl veered a IitUe and came between her and the' arrowing white body. That moment of obscured vision left her always in doubt as to how it happened. It might have been a split-second error in judgment. It might have been a final spit of ven om on Tumstead’s part, a final flow ering of hate for what he could ac cept as the sign and symbol of his final defeat. But as the bird swerved, to avoid its bigger rival, the plane also swerved. They swerved in the same direction, at the same moment, and came together. Slade banked sharply and turned, with a repeated shout as he saw the blue wings flounder and twist in their fall. “They’ve lost control,” he cried. “They’re down.” ■ He circled blindly, waiting for the Crash. Then he dropped lower, marking the spot where the tangled mass of metal and fabric rested on its. bed of broken limestone. Lynn knew, at his quick glance about, that he was looking for open water on which to land. But she remained silent until the ship was set down and they were ashore. “Is it the end?” she asked. “That’s what we’ve .got to find out,” he said. ! He mounted the bank and started running through the scrub, without waiting for her. She followed him, as; best she could. She found Slade waiting for her on one of the limestone ridges. He stood there, staring at the flare that lighted up the evening sky just over the next hill. J'You’d better stay here,” he said, his eyes on the glow above the hill top. He knew well enough what that glow meant. -Lynn watched him as he went over tbg' hill. It seemed a long time before he came back. He flung him self down beside her and sat there silent and dispirited. :: ; “They didn’t get away,” h'e finally observed in a voice devoid •<rf all triumph. ■tynn, who had taken her turn at glancing about at their world of rock and water and gold-green twi light, turned back to her tired companion. ■ ‘!.There’s nothing to do,” said Slade as he rose to his feet, “except to head back while there’s still a lit tle light left.” Slade, once more hightailing it homeward from Coppermine, glanced down at the mottled country-crawling under his floats. He did a little sum on a slide rule, to check his ground speed, looked at his .watch, and reached for his ear phones. He smiled at the newness of . the 'phones and the newness of the compact little radio set. They “I’ll be here at the port when you shuffle in,” that voice was saying, “and I think there’s going to be somebody else waiting.

But wait a minute. Stay in, CF-KCB. Can you hear me, Lin- dy? There’s a lady here waiting to speak to you.” The seconds seemed long as Slade waited. “Can you hear me, Alan?” a bell- like voice was- saying to him. It was only a voice, winging half a thousand miles over a water-span gled wilderness, but it brought a warming glow to his body. “Yes, darling, I hear you,” he answered. He knew it was Cleaver, working VBK at Coppermine, who at that point cooed across the ether: “And the sugar-lanes will now be open.” “Are you all right?” the bell-like voice asked. ‘Then this WiQ have to be all, Alan,” the bell-like voice was say ing. "Good-by, darling,” answered Slade. He was about to remove his ear phones, but a babel of words held his hand arrested. “So you’re going to marry the girl, Lindy!” He interpreted that as from Cap Bickell on the Basin’s mail plane heading north to Herschel. “I’m telling the world,” Slade found the courage to affirm. There was even a ring of defiant pride in his proclamation. “Perhaps more than you imagine, big boy,” an unknown and caustic voice observed through the aerial chatter. They meant well, Slade remem bered as he switched off and re moved his earphones. But it made him think of rough high-tops tram-i pling through a flower bed. And' he wanted to be alone, under that lonely sky of robin’s-egg blue, to think about his happiness. [THE END] By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D.. The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.

We iect it of the child, and when it we know that something is ing. Just so .there is something decidedly wrong in the life of Chriistian who fails to grow in ice. If a child fails to grow we alarmed, but if a Christian does grow we hardly notice it, or at it only express our regret. We ;ed a revial. Normal Children Will Grow iuke 2:40-52). [While Christ was God manifest in flesh, He was at the same time :e man, and as a boy He devel- ed and grew in a normal way. Tnless we meet the tragedy of ar- fsted development we need have concern about the fact that Et will grow physically, mentally id spiritually. The Lord has iced in the babe in a mother’s is the potential qualities of the or woman to come. Our chief iponsibility is to provide the op- Irttmity for the development of ise abilities and qualities which child has, and of guiding that |owth in the right direction at is all a parent has to do, but is enough to call for all the wis- im, judgment, patience and skill of e best of us. Yes, and even that not enough, we need the wisdom God and His grace upon our lives do this vital work as we ought. The qualities in a boy or girl rhich will count gloriously for God ay be dreadfully effective for •atan if we permit him to get con- ~ of our children. May God help is to be alert and skillful in rearing iur boys and girls. While it is true that we can dp ore for the guidance of physical id mental growth than spiritual because that is a matter of the ace of God), we can lead the steps if the little child to the house of iod; we can teach him to pray d to trust God, and we can set an :ample of godly living before him. iat Is all we can do; but again we lay, it is enough to demand our best Mojt and more. II. Normal Christians Will Grow OI Pet. 1:1-8). In Christ there are “all things that pertain unto life and godliness.” There is no need of some added ex perience, or some new and striking enducement, for all the unbelievably great possibilities of Christian grace and growth are in Him. We need only to recognize that fact and yield to Him, and there will be the full development of Christian life and experience. We have, in practice, so far de parted from the normal in Christian life that we can hardly believe that the above is true. In place of the normal Christian life according to God’s standard, we have established a standard based on the average Christian life. If we equal it we are satisfied, and if perchance we surpass it we count ourselves among the “more spiritual” ones. And all the time the average standard is far below the normal Christian life which God not only expects, but is .ready to enable and empower us to live. Peter tells us in this passage that the great and precious promises of God in Christ are not only to enable us to escape the corruption of this sinful world, but to go on to a place ;where we will neither “be barren ' nor unfruitful” Christians. How will this come about? Verses 5-7 tell us. Faith supplies in itself (rather than- “add to,” v. 5), if there is “diligence” (that is, true Christian devotion), a number of other splen did qualities. First comes “virtue” —really moral courage, or nobility of character. What a fine step for ward! Then comes “knowledge,” that is, a discernment which will : give practical skill in effective daily living for Christ.., Such spiritual dis cernment will naturally lead to “self-control” — something much needed by most Christians. The self-controlled one will always have “patience,” that is, the en durance to stand every hardship and trial. We need to be more patient not only with others, but also with ourselves, even in this matter of Christian growth of which we are speaking. A life like that is a life of “godli ness,” which will blossom out into real “brotherly kindness.” There isn’t too much of that in the world today, even among Christians. Let’s revive it! Then what? The one who loves his brother will love the whole world (charity, in v. 8, should read “love”). Why not? Are we not all brethren, who know Christ, regardless of race, position or creed? Let such virtues “abound” (v. 8), and no Christian life will lack in rich fruitfulness for God in Christ. If Christian people would let the new life within them grow, it would sur prise us and them what God would do through them for His own glory. R eleasedJjy W estern New spaper Union. TIRING the first couple of weeks U of each football season it is cus- i tomary to announce that it will be a j year of stunning upsets, back-break ing schedules and unprecedented gridiron thrills. It is to be regretted that sncb all-inclusive pronouncements were made in past years. The cry of "wolf!” lias been heard too often— and a large number of interested individuals now wish they bad saved their verbal—and written—ammuni tion for the 1942 season. Northwestern’s schedule isn’t typ ical of all major teams, but it does give a fair indication of the outlook for the nation’s top-notch elevens. For example, the Wildcats play a schedule on successive weeks against the Iowa Seahawks, Texas, Purdue, Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin, Notre Dame and Great Lakes. A schedule like that is enough to bring shivers to the bravest Monday morning quarter back. Without question the current sea son will be one of the most exciting in the history of football. It will see some of the best running and aerial attacks ever devised by coaches. About Notre Dame Many observers wouldn’t be sur prised to see Notre Dame lead the field with her passing game. Angelo Bertelli is good insurance. He was FRANK LEAHT a great passer last year as a sopho more, and that experience should make him doubly tough on competi tion. Frank Leahy should have no com plaint about his running attack. Last year he lacked power backs. That hole has been plugged with Jerry Cowhig and other heavyweights. With the T-formation he will have improved his offense and his de fense will be just as good. In the Big Ten, Minnesota is the team to beat. The Gophers have one of the strongest backfields in the conference, lead by Bill Daley, who did such a bang-up job last year. On paper the strongest Big Ten teams are Minnesota, Michigan, In diana and Northwestern. Purdue, Illinois and Iowa are question marks. Purdue may develop into a stronger team than expected, and may upset the apple cart for some of those bracketed above the Boilermakers. Iowa and Illinois may con fuse the issue by handing out a few surprises. Powerful Seahawks Wisconsin and Ohio look plenty tough. If Billy Hillenbrand of In diana, Tommy Kuzma of Michigan or Otto Graham of Northwestern were injured, the underdogs might well turn the tables. Lieut. Col. Bernie Bierman’s Iowa City Seahawks are rated the equal of any team he ever put on the field for Minnesota. This was proved early in the season when his team won a. lopsided 61-to-0 victory over Kansas. Bierman was more than pleased with the spirit of such former col lege stars as Big Mike Evashevski1 captain and quarterback for Michi gan in 1940, when Tom Harmon broke Red Grange’s scoring record. Against Kansas Evashevski showed why he was a great college player. He was brilliant as a field general, caught passes, ran with the ball and carried through on his blocking and tackling with wild abandon. Few teams will have any breathing spots this fall, especially those who have games with Naval Cadet teams. No coach can afford to be complacent when meeting a team like the Great Lakes Naval Training Base, with Bruce Smith on deck. Iowa, North Carolina, Georgia and St. Mary’s all have plenty of strength to send against their com petition in about 40 games scheduled.

W HO’S NEWS THIS WEEK Bjr LEMUEL F. PARTON Consolidated Features.—'WNU Release. M E W YORK--Iron men and rub- ’ ber transport is better than .vice-versa, if one wanted to ring the changes on the old wooden ship ad- , mjt w aSe- William An Iron Man Is M j effers- To Pall IIs Oat president ol OfRabberMorass “ Z a d the new rubber administrator, is, by all accounts an iron man. The occa- Eional rubber man in the railroad usiness is apt to come from the Speculative zone of railroading. Mr. Jeffers, the iron man, has come all the way up, in 52 years, entirely in Speration and management. •The Baruch rubber report has stepped up the deep-throated na tional roar demanding hard-boiled jnanagement in this war, to say nothing of operation. When Mr. Jef- Iers succeeded the late Carl Gray Ss president of the Union Pacific in 1937, this writer talked to a former associate of Mr. Jeffers. "He’s hard-headed, hard-fisted and hard-hitting,” said this in formant. “He’ll highball an or der right through to where it is going, and make sure that it never gets sidetracked and that it gets results. His effectiveness lies in knowing what he wants and then getting just that. Like all good executives, he will hire a specialized intelligence to look aftef details which he is too busy to master and in doing so he never gets buried under the small impedimenta which some times swamp less purposeful men.” Mr. Jeffers is supposed to have been grooved into his new job by Averell Harriman, chairman of the board of the Union Pacific, defense liaison official and lend-lease admin istrator for Britain. It is obvious that Mr.-1 Jeffers knows how to “keep ’em rolling,” which is the main, idea in wartime, whether the tires be of rubber or iron. This is the prevail ing explanation of the detachment of a master railroader from his job at a time when such mastery is ur gently needed where it is. Mr. Jef fers writes off a $70,000-a-year salary. It was in 1890, in bis native North Platte, Neb., that he started his career with the Un ion Pacific, as an office boy. By 1900, he became chief train dis patcher and he hasn’t had a va cation in the succeeding 42 years. A most inflexible man takes over our most flexible, and indispensable commodity. IT WOULDN’T be surprising to see Thurman Arnold proceeding against Anthony J. Drexel Biddle Jr. under the anti-trust laws. His widening monopoly of diplomatic „ , , . posts in the vari-H e s A m ericas ous countries has First M u ltip le been still further ination of Mr. Biddle as ambassador to the exiled governments of Greece and Jugoslavia. His other ambassa dorships include Poland, Belgium, Norway and The Netherlands, and he is minister to Czechoslovakia and Luxembourg. He seems to like his multiple job, althongh it has caused him much inconvenience and cost him . a lot of money. Senator Guffey of Pennsylvania recently pnt in a bill to reimburse him for $243,640 worth of his furni ture, strewn over Europe in the litter of fallen thrones and do- • minions. The senate postponed action on the bill until after the war, and Mr. Biddle didn’t seem to mind. He gets $17,500 a year for eight jobs whieh at prevail ing rates would run up to about $150,000 a year in salaries. He got his start as a diplomat With his appointment as minister to Norway in 1935. Then came the Polish ambassadorship and since then he hasn’t had much quiet home life, bombed out of any comfortable over-night stopping place. In Lon don, he needed elbow-room, finding embassy facilities Hmited for his large-scale operations, and took a spacious apartment at 40 Berkeley square, where he and Mrs. Biddle clear a prodigious amount of Euro pean diplomatic wreckage. Mrs. Biddle is the daughter of the late William Boyce Thompson, Montana mining magnate. Mr. Biddle frequently is confused with, his father, who once fought Philadelphia Jack O’Brien and who, at the age of 67, is now teaching ju jitsu to soldiers. Like his father, Mr. Biddle Jr. is an athlete, at 45, and has hawklike features and a long, sharp, shrewd friendly face. The confusion is understandable. Sifting out the relationships of Phila delphia Biddles is tricky business for an amateur, but the most relia ble finding is thaf the trap-drummer diplomat is the eighth cousih of At torney General?Fcanci9: Biddle and his brother George^'the painter.

Re cently I spent a couple of days with a British seaman who lived for months under the daily blast of Nazi fury on this brave little Mediter ranean island. I give you his story as he gave it to me: Sure, I can tell you about Malta. Tell you things you’ll hardly be lieve. Things which even seem fan tastic to me now that I am away from that little island which has suf fered so much for so long. I lived in Malta for months dur ing the worst of the raids. I lived through hundreds of bombing at tacks. I lived through enough to realize that these islanders are about the bravest people in the whole world. You know already of the thou sands of flights the Nazi bombers have made over Malta. You know of the tons of explosives they have dropped on that island, which is lit tle longer than Manhattan. What I want to tell you is about how the little people of Malta live on, de spite this epitome of Nazi fury— proving one thing to the world, prov ing that tough people can get as used to bombs as a man in New York or Chicago can get used to street noises and traffic hazards. Each Raid Shelter Has an Altar. Malta is honeycombed with air raid shelters, and each shelter has an altar, with a great crucifix hang ing on the wall. Each morning the deeply religious Maltese deck the crucifixes with freshly picked flow- ers. , I have often seen women and chil dren during the early morning raids stopping to gather such flowers be fore taking shelter. One of the last things each family does before leav ing home is to make sure that a pic ture of Christ is securely fastened to the front door. If, when they re turn after the raid, the home is a heap of rubble, the owners general ly are convinced it is because the picture came loose. My favorite air raid shelter was one which is about five stories down in the earth. It used to be an un derground railroad, and extends miles into the suburbs. Thousands of people are down there. It could be a permanent home for enough families to populate a whole village. Down there, while hell breaks loose overhead, young couples hold hands and talk of love, babies are bora, school'teachers hold classes, old men and women get ill and die. When the Maltese lose their homes in bombings, they take what they are able to salvage down into this labyrmthine shelter and set up housekeeping for the duration. It isn’t the most pleasant place in the world to live. But life goes on. It is not uncommon to see 10 or 12 children asleep in one huge bed down there. The Maltese have in credibly large families. As a raid gets under way, the low murmur of voices fills the cave. The Maltese don’t just move their lips when they pray—they let the words out softly, like cooing pigeons. It’s a warming, comforting sound by comparison with the terrifying noises of war from above. Now the planes are coming closer. Deep in the earth we can hear guns —guns all over the island, blasting away at what the natives call “those insects up in the sky.” 'Now the roar of Nazi planes div ing at their targets. Now the great er roar of our own planes going after them. Then the noise the bombs make when they hit. It all gradually builds .UgfJnto a crescendo which shakes the’earth. Yes, literally makes this under ground cave of ours tremble. The whole island seems to be rocking on its heels. We hold onto the ground. I re member wondering if Malta might) not break up into little pieces and vanish below the water. Bat seldom is anyone killed in the island’s shel ters. That is the main difference between London and Malta. Every one has a feeling of security in Mal ta, because you can be certain that wherever you go on the island it is only a short run to the nearest shel ter. Now someone runs into the shel ter shouting the Maltese words for “dogfight.” The men and'-women stop praying. They turn the children over to the old people, who- remain behind. They rush above ground. They stand, heedless of danger, in the debris-filled streets, their eyes flashing as they watch the Spitfires and Hitler’s planes fighting it out just over their heads. They cheer and clap their hands like children when an enemy crashes in flames to earth- As the dogfight ends, the Maltese hurry out to see the damage. IV1 |F :les! In o Imdemts C Raids Ialta Ti Si.

I I t’s E asy a n d T h rifty to M ake I I Y o u r O w n D efen se W o rk O u tfits f ir M Ia id EflsH lIiiEM ll AILING HOUSE I H B v C H E R IE NTC.TlrtT.AS by R oger B , W hitm an TSJ OW that the debs and the sub- ™ debs, the college girl and her endless chain of sorority sisters, the career girl and the glamour girl and the housewife have gone whole heartedly into intensive work to win this war they are finding themselves confronted with a work clothes need entirely new to them. Being employed by the thousands in industrial plants and on farms and in countless other war activi ties, taking the place of men as they are in wartime industries, women are coming to know that they must have clothes that stress utmost sim plicity, are washable, have no ex cess fullness to catch in machinery yet allow for the utmost freedom of action. Slacks and overalls must fit snugly at the ankle, fabrics must be sturdy, for there must be nothing tovhinder work. However, there is another essen tial that must not be overlooked. It’s the stimulus that comes to women workers when they know that the clothes they wear are as sm art and becoming as they are purposeful and efficient. To that end there is spe cial emphasis placed on the use of bright color, and there are many intriguing accessories like gay lit tle dickeys and bright blouses. An interesting and most significant reaction to this call for suitable work apparel is seen in the encour agement it has given to women to make sewing a thrifty hobby, the more so in that wash materials are so-inexpensively available with the excellent, well-styled patterns and modern sewing machine equipment, even beginners at the sewing game can count on doing a professional job. Having one of the new thermo plastic dress forms that is molded into a twin of your figure will prove a wonderful aid in turning out clothes that fit. The garments pictured in the above illustration have been selected as especially suited for farm work or factory assignments. The all-in- one uniform centered in the group is one of the smart defense outfits you yourself can make thriftily, or you can watch and learn while your work uniform is being cut and fit ted for you at your local sewing cen ter. The slide fastener closing at the ankles is an essential for pro tection insisted upon in most fac tories. It is easy to insert if you use the zipper foot attachment that comes in the modern sewing ma chine kit. Factory worker and “farmerette" will find smart . practicality in a jumper overall and shirtwaist outfit like that shown to the left. Not only does it give opportunity to wear dif ferent colorful shirtwaists, but there is special comfort and convenience in the suspender-type oversized pockets through which the wide leather belt is drawn, thus providing safekeeping for important working gadgets. The pocket edges are re inforced with firm, stitched edges. Everybody has been talking about victory gardens, and now that the “yellow pumpkin is on the vine" it’s high time to gather in the harvest. While you are collecting your vita mins grown right in your own back yard or are serving your country as a “farm hand,” you will be feeling comfortable and fit if you wear a blue-and-white striped cotton twill suit that opens at the back. This trim coverall really covers you from - head to foot and fastens at the ankles to keep out dirt and bugs. And how it washes and comes back all new sVuid fresh looking! The matching visor can go right into the tub along with ffie coverall. BeIeased by Western Newspaper Uniati Workaday Dress ■ • v\ The designer of this smart blue and white striped cotton jumper frock did a grand piece of work. Evidently the thought in mind was to provide a suit convenient and prettily feminine for the girl drafts man who may soon be called to active duty in defense industries. Its intriguing double front pocket holds pencils, a little ruler and T-square and other instruments. It buttons smartly down the side and is most intriguingly detailed. Worn with its flattering white pique blouse, it is ever so goodlookhig. For a change have a blue percale waist in re serve and a gay printed one, too, done in blue and white. New Designs Use Wool Wjth Velvet Some of the best looking fashions brought out this season feature vel vet and wool combinations. Espe cially successful are the black-on- black effects. One of the ways de signers are employing this combi nation is in connection with the new bow dresses, the skirt drape of which fastens over to one side with the bodice tied with a big bow at one shoulder. Instead of self fabric bows, velvet is used, and the effect is most gratifying. It is very ef fective, too, in jacket suits when the jacket is paneled down the front with an inset of velvet. Another method of working velvet with wool is to contrast the crepe or wool waist or one-piece dress with velvet sleeves, or with a velvet yoke. Very sm art black gowns of the new slender type are finished off at the neckline with a ruche ar rangement of velvet corresponding to the ruche of velvet about the nar row hemline. Buttons of velvet and bindmgs and inset horizontal bands also contribute chic to the new styles. Coats as well as dresses are velvet-trimmed. A simple black frock worn with velvet hat and gloves either in black or color is topnotch fashion this fall. Drawstrings Close Bags, Blouses and Even Skirts A new theme has arisen in the realm of costume design, namely drawstring fashions. And now that the vogue is under way style crea tors are turning out skirts that are drawn to fit at the waistline, blouses with drawstring necklines, pouch bags that have a drawstring instead of a zip fastening. Even gloves and hats are subscribing to the draw string technique. HOT AIR HEATING SYSTEMS MAY BE DUSTY f~\ NE of my correspondents is al- lergic to house dust, and as his house is heated by hot air, dust is much more likely to ' be present than with heating systems using ra diators. If he can change his heat ing system to steam or hot water, he would avoid this trouble. If he cannot do so, he should , have his plant examined by a competent heating man, who will close possible openings in his furnace by which dust from the firebox can escape into the air passages. Heating pipes, registers and other inside parts should be thoroughly cleaned, and he should take precautions to pre- vent ash dust in the air of the cellar from entering the air passages. Dust raised by Hie handling of ashes can be held down by spraying the ashes in the ashpit with water before clearing them out. This can be ar ranged for by attaching a short length of hose with a spray nozzle to a convenient faucet or water valve. He could also get an at tachment to his furnace containing an air filter, a water spray, and a circulating fan that would remove all dust from the air before it passed to the heating jacket of the furnace. This, in effect, would give him all the advantages of air conditioning. Storm Windows. Question: Storm sashes for my Windows would be about 3% by 514 feet, and would be heavy and awk- ward to handle. Would it be satis factory to make them in two parts; the upper to be hung to the top of the window frame, and the lower fastened to the upper part with screws or hooks? The lower rail of the upper part, and the upper rail of the lower part would show from within. Would this be objection able? Answer: Your idea is thoroughly practical, and is in quite common use. The upper part is sometimes screwed on, or sometimes hung with the usual hooks; the lower part can be attached with the same kind of hooks so that it can be easily lifted off. However, the braces or stays' by which the lower half can be swung out should be strong and firm against the possibility that the lower part might be swung out and lifted off by a high wind. The. ap pearance should not be objectionable in any way. Protection Against Freezing Question: How can water pipes in a summer cottage be protected against freezing? The pipes are above ground, on the outside, lead ing in and up through the floor to the plumbing. Answer: You can enclose the pipes in wood boxes of generous size, well tarred in the joints, so that they will be waterproof. For in sulation, they can be filled with dry sawdust. Use hoards 1% inches' thick, to be tarred on the outside as well as the edges. It is impor tant to keep the sawdust dry. If the pipes connect with an under ground water pipe, the insulating boxes should go down to it. The water main, of course, should be be low the frost line. Plumbing con tractors may be able to provide in sulation in other forms. Laying Linoleum Question: We have bought lino leum for our kitchen floor, and now have the pro’-’em of laying it. Should it be put on the bare floor, or on a felt base? We are told that with felt underneath it will last longer. Answer: If linoleum is not ce mented down it will stretch, and wrinkles will form. When cemented over felt the linoleum practically becomes part of the floor, and should have long wear. You had best en-, gage a linoleum layer to put it down, because of the experience and spe cial tools that are necessary to make a really good and long last ing job. Screening In Winter. Question: My porch was screened this summer with bronze netting. Should this be taken down each year, or would it be safe to leave it up for the winter? Answer: It would be better to take it down. Brqnze withstands the elements, but there will be too many chances for breakage from other causes. Laying Linoleum. Question: A bedroom floor is soft wood, and has been down about 50 years. Bed casters have worn holes in linoleum that is laid over it. What will prevent this? Answer: For long life, linoleum should be laid on a smooth floor. You .should either have the floor made | smooth 'with a heavy floor ma chine, or by covering it -with half inch plywood nailed down. Rats x Question: I am troubled with, rats going under my porch. I have caught several in traps and with baits, but cannot stop their going there. The porch is part of the house, but is not on a foundation. They seem to dig their way under. Can you suggest a means for keep ing them out? Answer: Scattering several pounds of moth balls under the porch will keep the rats out for as long as the odor persists, which may be for sev eral weeks. Then, repeat the per formance. Success for D inner—Savory Stuffed P eppers (See Recipes Below.) Flavor’s the Thing Ever notice how ever-so-good foods run in combinations of three flavors? There’s the steak, french fried potatoes and pie combination. Or, you can-have fried chicken, gravy and bis cuits as a three some. At one time or another you’ve all tried Iamb chop, peas and mint jelly combination, or a melted cheese, toasted bread and grilled tomatoes plate luncheon. Now other foods are joining the vic tory parade and new dishes are joining hands at the table to blitz their way to food fame. The nu trition rule which is rapidly gain ing popularity is the one which says that if you miss one food combina tion at one meal, you must pick it up at another meal so you’ll get all the energy units you need these busy days. That’s why today I’m offering you combinations of food which contain nutrients easy to miss if you’re not careful. Take iron, for instance. Iron is a mineral that has a big job to do for your system. It sees to it that your energies -don’t lag and guards against anemia and gen eral digestive disturbances. Biggest job of all that iron does is to see that your body gets all the oxygen it needs by making enough red blood cells to go through that 7,000 -mile long circulatory system that will replenish with oxygen and carry off the poisonous carbon di oxide which is another word for the oxygen after you finished using it. Now the thing about iron is that it’s difficult to find it in a great many foods. You can see how im portant it is because you need it every day. You’ll find iron in eggs, whole wheat cereals and oatmeal, for instance. Suppose you skip these things at breakfast. That means you’ve got to pick up iron in one of the other two meals, for instance, by having some iron-rich food like liver, heart, oysters, greens, dried fruits. Do you follow? That’s why today Fm including several iron-rich foods so you will be sure not to miss a day without having something with iron.

Lynn Says: Survey Notes: A nutritional survey by a large firm reveals the following interesting bits of information: that we are the best fed country In the world, but as a whole do. not know enough about eating as wisely as we should. Of the 11,582 interviews made, it is found that about 27.7 per cent of the families are eating more protective foods than two years ago. Marked increases were made in the consumption of citrus fruits. Most women like to cook, it goes on to tell; three out of four in the first thousand like to cook, 11.6 per cent like to cook occa sionally, and about 10.8 per cent “not at all.” Families are fed—at least 66 per cent of those interviewed— what women think are good for them. Then 58.5 per cent are fed what the family likes. Cost of food affects 42.19 per cent, and variety influences 28.2 per cent.

When you talk about the mineral, iodine, you might as well ask about the I.Q., for this is the mineral that directly affects mental alertness. In addition to that, iodine prevents simple goiter and also affects how you tip the scales. Rich in iodine are seafoods, so make a point of including them in your menu often. For example: Shrimp Casserole.

In other words, labor has jobs only when some business man, or group of investors, puts up the money necessary tor the creation of jobs. It was well said recently, by a student of economics, that men in governmental authority too often forget that while the rights of work ers are being considered, the owner of the tools used by workers must also have some consideration. After this war is over, the plants now devoted to military needs must be re-converted to peace-time activ ity; must be re-tooled for the kind of production they were engaged in when it became necessary to~~tool up for war. Labor will expect peace time jobs then, but somebody must provide the money for re-converting and re-tooling. That money cannot be forthcoming unless enough profits or capital can be stored up to meet such requirements. 10% OF INCOMEx IS OUR QUOTA IN WAR BONDS Notice To Creditors Having qualified as adm inistrator of N.

God has marvelous sweetness for every soul. His supply is never exbausteds But In order to receive it there is a price to pay. Not that His grace can be bought with mon ey; yet no man can bold to his money, love it, hoard it away, be selAsb and stingy, rob God, and in the meantime have sweetness of soul. It is an impossibility. God would have every soul to be liberal and this is one of the soul’s char acteristics when fflled witli sweet ness. Minus of this the soul can not be Ailed with the sweetness of God. The soul that has deeply and thoroughly repented of all sin and wickedness, and has given it up, and has been pardoned, and after wards sanctiAed wholly, and lives godly and righteously, keeping in the footprints of Jesus daily, has blessed sweetness. AU bitterness, anger, wrath, strife, selAshuess, narrowness, evil, worldliness, sin and wickedness has been taken out, indeed and in trath, and the Holy Spirit hrs taken up His abode and Alls the inner life, and controls the outer life, thus bringing heaven’s sweetne.s unto men. Such an ex. perience is worth all that it takes to obtain it; all that we have to give up; all that we have to do. for the Master’s sake. The sanctiAed man has sweet ness of soul that cannot be obtain ed in any other way except through deep consecration to God It is true tliat the regenerated man has some sweetness of soul, but not like the sanctiAed man. There is a difference, and a vast difference. Tbe regenerated man may be eas ily irritated, and oftentimes shows irritableness, peevishness, and lets his temper get the best of him, and lacks patience under test and trial, and may say and do that which hurts him and his fellows, and then has to go out and repent of it in order to get forgiveness. Well, better this than do wrong and fail to repent. However, the thoroughly sancti Aed soul keeps sweet under test and trial. He shows his patience. He holds his peace. Oftentimes he keeps still H e lets the other fel low do the talking and he does the listening. H e lets somebody else show his anger, but he shows his sweetness. H e smiles while the other fellow frowns and reveals hts anger. He shows bis beauty of holiness while the other fellow shows his ugliness of zarnality. When things go wrong he prays, keeps faith in God, keeps gentle, kind, lovable, patient and sweet, while the other fellow “ loses bis head," lets his temper and tongue get the best of him, and afterwards has to apologize and repent, or go on in bis sins. W hile the other fellow curses, he prays. W hile bis enemies say hard things about him, and maybe lie on him,' he thanks God because it is a lie, draws near er and nearer unto God.prays more, loves his enemies and does good for evil. That’s swoetness of soul. This is life’s batter way; No one ever regrets having a real sanctiAed experience and keeping sweet un der the Are of the devil, and while be is going through. severe tests and trials 'He comes forth like gold tried in.tbe furnace, glittering and shining. He comes out more than conqueror through Jesus, and His precious blood. H e convinces men that he has something in his inmost heart and soul that the world doesn’t h ve, that the world didn’t give hiin, and that th e world can’t take away as long as he is faithful and true, to God. ' Fraise the Lord. It is beautiful, lovely and charm ing to have blessed sweetness of soul. It is good and gloriously worth while in the home life amid the everyday duties and responsi bilities of life, and while doing the same things over and over again, which pertain to a livelihood, and while meeting the test and grind of things that, sometimes, and often times come to us. It is wonderful to have sweetness of soul among our neighbors,-some of whom may be quite unlovely, maybe wicked, ungodly and unfair. It really takes much sweetness of soul to live a. mong them and deal with them It is likewise good, wonderful aud glorious to have sweetness of soul as a church member. Not every thing goes well, right and good in the average church. Sometimes the devil brings in lots of trouble, and while some reveal their carnality, it is great to reveal only sweetness. There are some great characters as consecrated followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. They not only re veal their sweetness, but their bea uty, greatness, composite, mastery of themselves, and “tbe fact that they have a part or heaven within Too Late Now Congress may as well quit and go home. The President either has everything already or will have soon.” This Js the bitter lament of Sena tor Smith, of South Carolina, bit. ter W hite House foe and a relent less contender for whatever favors the agricultural interests of the country demand of the government. One may quite agree with the militant Senator that the President is running the country without the aid of Congress and that, conse quently, the legislative branch of the government continues to exist for the most part only in name. But who is more responsible for this unhappy state, the President or the Congress itself? It the latter had In all cases mea sured up to the full meaning of its constitutional rights: if it had re fused. to truckle to special rights: if it bad refused to truckle to spe cial pressures, and met its wartime responsibilities, and even those be- forehand of peace time, In a more forthright and effective fashion, it would not today And itself so strip- ped of its essential powers to legis late for the national interest that the chief executive of the govern ment does, and has, “everything he wants.” —Charlotte Observer.

P rivate Chaffin is now station ed a t Daniels Field, Augusta, Ga. He has been in th e ser vice of his country for the past four m onths. He celebrated his 21st birthday on Oct. 2nd. Wasting Money Rep Albert Eugel, Republicauof Michigan, is one member of Con gress who refuses to be squelched by the W ar Department—or any one else. On. the Aooi of the House he disclosed an attempt on the W ar Department tom uzzlebim and at the same time charged the Roose velt administration with the waste and extravagance of millions of dollars in the construction of the new W ar Department Building in Arlington, Va. He declared that President Roosevelt, as commander- in-chief, is responsible for ‘‘shame ful squandering of the taxpayers’ money and the bond buyers' dol lars” on the project. His colleagues were started by the'news that the W ar Department had tried to prevent his making public full information on the total cost of the building and the amount of Aoor space that would be avail, able. Under the term, “confiden tial,” Engel said, the department songht to establish censorship 00 figures which have no relations to military secrecy. Other Members nodded apWov iugly as the Michigan Congress man declared grimly that he had paid scant heed to the department's ban and was determined to . place all the figures in his possession on the record “ Thf information which would hive b.en thus concealed,” he as serted, “discloses the failure of the Government officials to carry ont the mandate of Congress concern ing this building. However, it is my position that-the taxpayers’ are entitled to have all the tacts per taining to costs in o'der that they may determine just what thev are getting for their money. None of the facts which I give, although marked ‘confidential,’ could be con dered by the widest stretch of the imagination as aid to the enemy.’ Engel, short and stocky, with a grim face and a shock of gray hair standing on end, won wide praise a few months ago for his one man in- the construction of army camps. He is known as a two-fisted, forth right debater and a few days ago he was unsparing in his denuncia tion of the Administration foy the expenditures in connection with the W ar Department Building He recalled that the department officials, Including Lieut. Gen. Bre- hon B. Somervell, Chief of the Army Services of Supply, testified hetore tbe House Appropriations Com mitteein July 1941 , that the cost of the building, including ac cess roads, bridges, parkways, and a huge parking lot would not ex ceed $35 ,000 ,000 . Actually, he charged, the cost will be $70 ,741 ,- 807 . As originally conceived, he said, the building was to baye a gross of 5 ,100,000 square feet with a net of 4 ,000 .00 b square feet of officespace. But the area as it is now| being built is 5,776,700 with a net office space of only 2 ,336 ,000 . Originally the structure was to house 40,000 em ployes, but with tbe reduced a- mount of office space there will be room for only 23 ,000 , Engel said. Thus, the Michigan Representa tive concluded, while the net office Aoor space and accommodations for employes was halved, the cost was more than doubled. Sheffield News. Too late for last week.

It has nigh hope of seeing a Republican- controlled Congress at Washington in the belief that it would prove a real check to reckless extravagance and a return of our government to tbe peolpe. North Carolina- has one fine op portunity to break the Democratic solid ranks by electing Charley Jonas of Lincolnton. to the nmtt session of Congress. There he would be found fighting the people’s cause We sin cerely hope he will defeat that blust ering. windjammes of Charlotte. Cameron Morrison, for it is bad en ough to have Bob Reynolds up there in Washington without adding to our shame by sending Cam from the new Tenth District. ■ Jonas is honest in all hie dealings and at Washington could be expect ed to be honest in his representation of this state. We call your atten tion to bis piedge, as carried in his statement issued statement issued September 1st. It. is worth your time to read it carefully. Here it is: “ It is right and proper that I as a candidate for Congress in tbe TentbLDistrict should make this pub lic statement of my reasons for en tering the contest. I trust my sin cerity will not be doubted when I say that in making my decision I was neither “lured by ambition nor goad ed by necessity.” I am a Republi* can; but I was not impelled by parti san considerations to make this race. I strongly feel that for the duration of the war partisan politics should yield first place to national unity and national security. I want to be elect ed to Congress in order to help win the war definitely and speedly to .the qnd that our boys in the service may return to us victories at the earliest possible date. This emergency is too critical to permit personal or party gain to receive consideration. “ If elected I pledge the people to forget self and party until the war is won My position on every ques tion coming before the Congress for solution shall be determined by two considerations only: First, will it advance our war program? If so, I shall support it; if not, I shall sup port it. Second, will it make it easier and more certain after tbe war to re store here in America the kind of government guaranteed by the Con* BtitutionT If so, I shall support it; if not. I shall oppose it. “Our boys in tbe arm d forces have the right to expect tbe unquali fied support of the folks back home —especially those who bold public office. So far as I am concerned, in or out of public office, they shall have such support. With God’s help I shall keep faith with them.” . Inafolderbeingsent out .to the voters of the new Tenth District we found this expression: A venerable citizen of Lincoln who has known Mr. Jonas all his life, when asked how Qtarley ever fought his way “ from plowshares to Congress,” re- plie I, “Jonas has always stood for what he believed was right and he has always fought fair.” To that statem ent we would like to add our (“Amen,’, for it is our testimonial, too.

D oans P ills IM M ltf BURSI ONCE /SVGRANVILLE church’ / W.N.U CHAPTER I Arriving at Cabeza de Negro was like coining borne. Neither Curt nor Lee had ever visited the one-time email fishing port in the old days, but that was the way it hit them Now as it rose up out of the sea. Once it had been only a collection jbf mahaca shacks on stilts, cut off from inland by . . fever-ridden marshes. An unhealthy spot for white men. : Today all that was changed—or fast changing. They were up at dawn .tor. the early docking and to watchthelong, low blur on the horizon which slowly became the Tierra Libre coastline. Lee caught her breath as that blur took shape. Her memories of it were precious. True, she’d been happy since, and now she had the boys. But no happi ness, not even the children, could ever erase from her mind those first years here with Curt. Hard work ing days for him, in a job for which he was bora, romance and beauty in the tropic setting for her. Unconsciously she snuggled closer under Curt’s arm as .they' stood at the rail staring landward. Uncon sciously, too, Curt was scowling, but Lee did not see this. Meanwhile, Buddy and Chuck were clamoring and tugging un noticed at the ends of their split leash—they couldn’t be. alio wed free run of the deck. “Anuwer dog wace, Daddy,” begged Chuck in the fuzzy tones of a four-year old. He didn’t yet have Buddy’s clarity of Speech, for Buddy was all of six and quite a man. Curt obligingly called, “One, two, three, go,” and the children scam pered down the deck on all fours, barking and pulling their leashes taut. This play brought Curt and Lee to the vessel’s stern where their eyes caught the flat black smudge in the distance. A lean, low gray vessel was cutting in toward the coast far ther to the north. “Headed for Soledad,” Curt mut tered, and the frown returned to his forehead. Lee clutched his arm. “It’s a destroyer! One of ours, Jeff! Must be. And it’s racing! Do you suppose . . . there wasn’t any word on the bulletin board . . . ” Curt patted her hand and smiled down at her. “Don’t be getting any ideas,” he said, and was immediately con scious he’d taken a second or so too long in replying. “There’s no revolution here. Uncle Sam’s just paying a courtesy call. We’re doing more of that than we used to throughout the Caribbean.” “But it’s speeding! See how the smoke lays flat from the funnels!” “That’s caused by the wind from around Punta Cauca, honey. Our smoke would look the same if we were in that .position.” Once more, as he stood against the rail with Lee, Curt went over in his mind the string of events leading up to their presence here on the Pisces—as he’d done so many times these past several nights, lying awake in the dark. He started with the proposition it self. •' He and Lee had been dawdling over a late breakfast; while the chil dren played on the lawn within range of the open windows. He had the morning paper folded to bandy size and propped against the coffee urn, and was sunk in a roving re porter’s column purporting to give the progress of bomb-proofing the Panama Canal.It took Lee several efforts to break through to him. It was (the. final “Jeff Curtis!” that did it, and he looked up to discover she’d been running over the morning mail. There was a storm signal in her eyes and she was tapping the knuck les of one hand with a long, flat envelope. “Who do I know in Cristobal?" he said easily. “Why, no one, I guess. There’s old Jim Bragg over on the Pacific side. Letter? Gimme.” / “Some day, my fine lad,” she be gan promisingly, “when you bury yourself in the paper—oh, what’s the jise?” She gave up and handed him the letter. He ripped it open, slid out the several sheets of enclosure. “Only mailed from Cristobal.” He read aloud the letterhead: “ ‘Com- pania Agricola Tropical, San Alejo, Tierra Libre. Port, Cabeza de Ne gro. Cable, CAT.’ Huh. Who do you suppose they are? Cabeza’s that Uttle fishing village down the coast from Soledad, but I never heard of San Alejo.” He glanced at the end of the letter. “Signed, ‘Apolonio Mon- taya, President and General Man ager.’ Never heard of him.” He ran his eye down the first page and looked up to exclaim: “Why, honey, it’s a new banana outfit! Opening up twenty thousand hectares between the rivers Masica and Negro. But that stuff’s all swampland! You remember, Lee, that big stretch' of swamp across the Negro, dotted with a few spots of jungle?” “And the mosquitoes!” Curt grinned and skimmed over the rest of the letter hurriedly. Lee saw his- growing excitement as he straightened in his chair. “Lee! They’re offering me the job of Chief Engineer!” He took a deep breath and went on more slowly, soberly. ' “But they say the offer’s contingent upon residence with fam ily for term of contract Three years. Of course, if I had the job I’d like to have you and the kids with me, but—” Lee rose and went around to him, pushing back the table to sit on his knees and look' him gravely, mis- givingly, in the eyes. Here was a situation to be handled, one to be nipped in bud. It took her a mo ment to find the right words. “You’d like that job, wouldn’t you, darling?” It was more statement than ques tion. He lowered his eyes. “Well, I’d— I’d—yes, sure I would! That’d be a real job! Just think, Lee. Drainage, levees, floodgates, railroad, power plants—all kinds of projects! And honey,” his eyes flamed, “a chance to work on that overhead irrigation system I missed out on when we came north.” He broke off again and his eyes went blank to hide, or try to hide, how much this could mean to him. “Well,” he went on carefully, “it’d be something more than this kinder- “ They’re offering me the job of Chief Engineer!” garten stuff I’m doing now. Twenty thousand hectares is quite an order.” ' “Yes, I know. But you’ll leave it to me to decide, won’t you?” “Well-1, yes, Lee,” he faltered. “I guess I’ll have to.” She looked a long moment into his eyes, then pushed a forefinger in circles through his thick, curly hair before kissing him lightly. “It will hurt, dear,” she said qui etly, “but' you’ll have to forget it. There are Buddy and Chuck. We can’t take them to a malarial swamp—and with Buddy ready for school this year." “But, Lee, they cover that here! They say—” He swallowed hard, dodging her steady gaze. "They say they have excellent accommo dations halfway up the Quebrado Mountains,- including school, hospi tal, clubhouse, swimming pool, ten nis courts. They claim there’s no fever in their settlement—San Alejo, they call it—and Lee, we ought to like it as well as we liked Puerto Soledad:” U ? i • “We were Bappy in Soledad, dar ling. Don’t think I can ever for get. But we left Tierra Libre be cause we. wanted children and thought this country and climate best for them.” “I know,” he answered unhappily. She got up and stood at the win dow, hands locked behind her. At length, without turning, Lee asked, “How do you know they’re responsible people?” “I wouldn’t accept without investi gating them!” “The letter is headed San Alejo, Tierra Libre, but it’s mailed in a plain envelope from Cristobal,” she mentioned. “Oh, that’s explainable: They put their mail aboard an Associated ship at Soledad, no doubt, whose purser dropped it at Cristobal for- faster air service.. It came by air, you know.” 1 “And the plain envelope?” “Well-1 . . ." Curt fidgeted.; "I don’t think that means anything. Maybe they were out of printed ones. Or perhaps,” his vOice quick ened, “in mailing it on an Associat ed vessel they were being wary of Associated finding out too much !.AfRViee abdut them. They’re rivals, Lee.” ‘T have a feeling, I can’t explain, but—” She bit her lip. “No, that’* a woman’s trick, that’s not fair.” Finally, with reluctance, she said, “Well, at least it wouldn’t do any harm to find out more about these people.” “Sweetheart!” Curt shouted, and jumped for her. Her next words were muffled against his shoulder: “Well, I hope I’m not a sugar-and-water wife.” He didn’t see the tears in her'eyes. And that was the first step that led to their being here on the Pisces. The second? Curt had put in a short-wave phone call for -Jerry Mclnnis, his closest friend during the years he’d worked in the tropics. Mclnnis was now Chief Engineer for the Associ ated Fruit Growers at Puerto Sole dad. The call came through later that morning. Greetings were quickly over. Then: “Jerry, what do you know about the Compania Agricola Tropical? Claim to have that swamp between the Negro and the Masica—” “Yeh, I know, only it won’t be a swamp much longer. They’re doing a swell job of reclamation, Curt. Well, I don’t know much about them. Guy called Montaya heads the outfit. There’s a whisper around he was hooked up with Cedilio in Mexico and got out by the skin of his teeth when that revolt failed. But that’s only gossip, take it for what it’s worth. Seems to have plenty dough behind him, but I don’t know where it comes from. Old Man Moore probably has the lowdown, but you know how tight- lipped he is.” Moore was General Manager in Tierra Libre for Associated Fruit Growers. “Who’s in with this Montaya?” "Don’t rightly know. Curt. Mon taya seems the only top man so far’s I can see. There’s a couple of Swedes I don’t know anything about —except they hold their liquor and don’t talk. Youngish guys. And a Dutchman—Hollander, I mean—a chemical man. Panama disease has shown up over on our side and if they’re going to raise bananas they’ll have to find some means of combating—” “Yes, sure. But how come Asso ciated didn’t have that piece tied up? Never heard of anyone getting ahead of Old Man Moore before.” “Well, we’ve already got plenty of good land, all we can handle now or in the reasonable future. And this- piece’ll cost ,real money to de velop. Why all' these questions, Curt?” “Under your hat, Jerry, they’ve offered me the job of Chief Engi neer. Wanted to know more about them. Think they’re reliable?” “Well-1, yes, Curt, they are, so far’s I know. But Pd hate to bave you make a decision on my say-so.” A wary, reluctant note had crept into Mclnnis’ voice. “Who’s been handling the job?” ' “Chigger Mitchell.” “What! Old Mitch? He’s a good man. What happened they need an other?” “Well, you know how Mitch was kind of tough on labor. A driver and all that. And he could sure find a guy’s weak spot and dig under the skin. He didn’t get the name ‘Chigger’ for nothing. Well, he must’ve made an enemy over there who wanted, a souvenir. Anyway, his ears were' missing when they found him—just a few days ago, it was—and they had to use a basket for the rest of him. These machetes are bad stuff, as you know well enough.” Early in the morning Curt wired his acceptance to the C. A. T. peo ple’s New Orleans office. Back came, overnight, a contract for sig nature. And things'moved fast. The freighter Pisces, one of a small fleet of Norwegian vessels chartered to the C. A. T. outfit, would be held over a day in New Orleans awaiting them. Loaded with rails, cement, lumber, machinery, it was bound for Cabeza de Negro, the new C. A. T. port at the mouth of the Rio Negro. Curt had less than twenty-four hours to wind up all his affairs in the States, store the car, arrange for care and lease of the house through an agent, for forwarding of their mail . . Their mail! The first batch, re addressed and sent by air to New Orleans, caught up- with Curt just before they sailed: Busy with de tails of baggage and boarding ship, he hastily stuffed the handful of let ters into his pocket- It was hours before he thought of it and hauled it forth foi inspec tion. The ship had reached the mouth of the Mississippi; they’d dropped the pilot and were headed out into the Gulf. One letter was a small plain envelope;' postmarked Puerto Soledad,' Tierra Libre. Inside was a brief note. “M r.-Curtis. Don’t bring you: family to San Alejo, don’t com* yourself. Don’t come! Zorn Mitck ell.” ,v t (TO BE CONTlNVEOi FIRST-AID to the AILING HOUSE by Roger B. Wbitanon REPAINTING A RADIATOR SHOULD BEGIN BT THOR OUGH CLEANING THE first step in repainting a ra diator should be to go over it vig orously with a wire brush to remove caked dust, rust and loose paint. This is followed by wiping with tur pentine to take off any traces of oil or grease which may have been picked up from the air. Paint that is on firmly can remain; the new finish can go on over it. The bronze and aluminum paints formerly used on radiators have been displaced by oil paints, not only for appearances,* but because there is greater radia tion, than when the radiator is fin ished with a metallic paipt. The fin ish can be a special enamel made for radiators, or flat wall paint ol good quality. Paint should be ap plied in thin coats, as many as may be necessary to .hide 'the metal. Paint applied in thick coats is much more likely to crack and chip than when the coats are thin. It is im portant that the radiator be cold when painted, and should remain cold until the paint is thoroughly dry and hard. Paints are likely to darken when heated, for which rea son the shade chosen should be light er than is required to match the trim. Radiator Heat. Question: How can the maximum heat be obtained from hot water radiators? You have suggested painting the radiators a light color, and placing sheet metal behind them. Our radiators are now sil vered. Please give me full particu lars. Answer: There is about one-sixth more radiation through oil paint than through the metallic paint now on your radiators. The silver paint need not be removed before repaint ing; go over it with a wire brush to take off all loose particles and dust, and wipe with turpentine. The new finish should be top quality, flat wall paint, thinned with a little tur pentine. Radiators should' be cold when painted, and should remain so until the paint has dried. Sheet metal behind a radiator, to be ef fective as a reflector, should be bright—bright tin, for instance, or aluminum foil. The effect of this is to throw back into the radiator, and into the room, the heat that would otherwise be absorbed by the wall and wasted. I have made success ful reflectors with heavy wrapping paper, with three coats of a bright drying aluminum paint.* Cold Room Question: I have hot water heat Which gives sufficient warmth in all rooms, except in one bedroom di rectly over the kitchen. I have tried in vain to increase the heat in this room, but without success. Would it be advisable to put a register in the floor, so that heat from a gar bage burner in the kitchen could circulate through it? The kitchen is too warm. Answer: If the radiator in the cold room heats properly with all the rest of the radiators, it may be too small; or the trouble may be loss of heat around the windows and through the cold ceiling. Put on storm sash and metal weatherstrips, and insulate the ceiling. If it does not heat, look for an obstruction in the pipe. A register in the floor might supply the necessary heat, but would flood the room with odors from the kitchen. Frosted Windows. Question: Why do my storm win dows steam up in cool weather and frost up in cold weather? I took extra pains to make a tight fit. In side windows have copper weather strips. Answer: Dampness gets into the space between the storm windows and the regular windows from out doors. This can be checked only by putting metal weatherstrips on the storm windows. On a dry day, open the storm windows for a half-hour or so; any damp air that may be confined between the two windows will pass away. When storm win dows are frosted, opening them on a bright day or in any weather that is not damp, will clear them. Sewer Gas Question: For two winters we have been troubled with sewer gas, which comes through the laundry tubs as well as through the basement floor drain. When toe city cleaned toe sewers last summer we thought that the trouble had been eliminat ed, but this has not been the case. How can this be corrected? Answer: There is something wrong with the traps in to e. sewer line from your tubs and floor drain. They may have been improperly put in, or they may be so cracked that the water seal leaks away. The reme dy is very definitely -a job for; ja plumber: Flring-Door Damper Question: What is. the. purpose of the small, adjustable damper .ip the firing door of a hot water- boiler? When should it be opened? Answer:. Its purpose..is to .admit air over toe top of the fire,;So'toat coal gas will be burned. 'Without air the coal gas that is formed by the heating of fresh coal will pass up the chimney unhurried, and you will lose.some of toe .value of your fuel. Tfie damper should be opened after each stoking oh toe boiler. It will do no harm to leave it partly open at all times/ •* ■?.: I n t r i g u i n g R i c R a c D e c o r a t e d F r o c k I CH E’LL go places happily, know- ing she looks very pretty in this ric rac decorated frock!

It is now said the draft age will soon be lowered to include the 18- 20 y ar old boys. It was predicted some time ago that the age limit would be lowered as soon ; s the election was over. There are a few men around tbese diggins that we would trust with the last two dollar bill we had, but we wouldn’t trnst them as far as we could throw a millstone back ward witb our vote. In our opinion the man who will steal yoar vote is even too sorry to talk about. McDonald To Speak No use for a fellow to get mad and raise cain because he has a friend who runs for office and gets defeated. Many good men who have run for office went down in de feat, and many more will suffer the same fate. And it is not alwavs the. oest men who are elected to of fice. T he president is a human being. He makes mistakes like all other mortals. We believe two of hi» worst mistakes, was legalising tbe sale of liquor, or having congress to do so £t> his request, at<d. asking Congress to draft tl;e 18-year-old boys for army service. In onr humble opinion this country has plenty of fighting men between . the ages of 20 .and 50 years. A leading Davip Democrat tells us that B. C. Brock will be elected to the State Senate next month, and that Willie Gales. Republican nominee for Recorder in'. Jerusalem township, will also b e elected. There is no doubt in our mind but that this gentleman is correct. He could haye .added that other Repub: licans in the countv would also be elected. Is Tliis True? C.

This kind of news meant more to me than reading a- bout some Senator “Dem" from Ohio, who was on a vacation somewhere, or there was a bad flood in Maine, as news like that where I did not know anyone or have any loved ones.

G THE DAVIE RECORD. MOCKSVILLE, N. C. W HO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEM UEL F. PARTON Consolidated Features.—WNU Release. ^ EW YORK.—We know a broker, ’ a Harvard graduate, who didn’t so much as scalp an eighth for over a year. He salvaged enough of his Harvard at Work buy*a pair of - Bench and Labor o v e r a lls , _ . . . went to NewGoes to Harvard Jersey and got a job with Bendix Aviation. He has had a raise in pay and says the house percentage against a man at a work bench is far less than in Wall Street. It is one of many in stances of the infiltration of Har vard, and Ivy league associates, into the ranks of skilled labor. It works both ways. At the : suggestion of trade unions, Har vard opens a nine-months trade union fellowship course for Ia- . bor organization men selected ' by their unions. They propose ‘ to build a bridge between labor and industry, in the seminar sponsored by the Harvard Busi ness school, the Littauer School of Public Administration and the Harvard Department of Eco nomics. Fifteen men begin the course. Perhaps, under current stress and strain, everybody is working the other side, of the street. But there are encouraging precedents. Toyn bee Hall of London, around the turn of the century, was comparable. While it flushed many doctrinaires and ephemeral dreams, it stirred much honest discussion and helped induce social responsibility both in British labor and industry. . Lucius N. Littauer, the glove magnate of Gloversville and New York city, who established the above school of business ad ministration, was 83 years old last January. When he endowed the school with $2,250,000 In 1938, he said it was to be “ad ministered in the cause of better understanding among all man kind.” He was graduated from Harvard 63 years ago, picked up his father’s glove business, and in practical business administra tion, learned much of the inter dependent problems of labor and industry. In congress, 1897, to 1907, he spon sored and established the United States bureau of standards. Some what pertinent to this is his bureau of human standards at Harvard. C1ERENC VAS ARHEL YI1 distin guished Hungarian biochemist, reconditioned, and re-energized Benito Mussolini. We had lunch with him recently. We gathered This Biochemist * at-c a s e oi IlWillSteamUpNo D uce an d •tin, certain other MorelronMen European careerists he wished he had just let nature take its course. He’s against the dictators. He came here three years ago and has been revitalizing and restimu- lating Greta Garbo, Alice Marble, Elisabeth Bergner, Antoine de Paris, Jessica Dragonette, Gabriel Pascal and other eminent persons who may safely be revivified with out any danger of their becoming Frankensteifis. At luncheon, he ex tolled sauerkraut as an energy builder. The fact is that sauerkraut had a lot to do with upping Horthy and ousting Mr. Vasarhelyi. When Horthy was a minor naval officer, the men in the - fleet went on strike, saying they would rather be shot than eat another yard of sauerkraut. Dis obeying the orders of Us com mander, Horthy seized a cruiser ■ and made the sailors eat sauer kraut, days on end, at the point of a gun. Its inspiring effects were such that Horthy was re warded by being made chief ad miral of the fleet. He ate still more sauerkraut and reached out and grabbed the country. Mr. Vasarhelyi’s career is one of the most unique in the backwash of the first World war, lying as it does in the overlapping zone of politics and dietetics. He thinks food has a profound and determining effect on individual and collective human be havior and that scientists will some day read history in terms ol starches and proteins. His political career came to a peak in a dramatic climax in 1917, when he helped ease out the monarchy and bring in the liberal Count Karolyi as premier. Mr. Vasarhelyi is 70, trim and erect, clear-skinned and hard as nails. He ascribes this to the fact that he practices what he preaches. He thinks a democra tized Danubian federation will shape up after the war, and that Europe will be reorganized on sound economic and biological fundamentals. Roughly, these two fields of interest have filled his life, but he puts the main stress on the latter. Much devastating human activity he ,v thinks may be traced Io food Don’t Cuss W eatherm an— It’s W eatherwom en Now -s > Milady has finally stormed one of the last bastions of man’s exclusive field by establishing a beachhead in the Washington, D.

Rosalind Russell’s sponsoring Janet Blair with a vengeance! First she convinced Columbia Pictures that Janet was perfect for the title role in “My Sister Eileen” ; then she waived the exclusive star clause JANET BLAIB in her contract so that Janet could share star hilling. Next she took Janet for a tour of the army camps, with the purpose of interesting her soldier brother, George Russell, in the young actress. Alan Reed spent two months in Hollywood waiting to make a pic ture that never was started, though he was paid regularly. He collected a typical Hollywood wardrobe— slacks, sports shirts, Mexican hu- araches, silver-trimmed belts. Ezra Stone, till recently of “Henry Al drich,” ran into Reed in his Holly wood togs, in New York. “Gee,” said he, “you’re not even a civilian!” Young Bussell Hoyt, BKO actor, has been trying to make people forget his striking resemblance to Alan Ladd. Now it's got him a job. BKO used him in bits in “Seven Days’ Leave” and “Here We Go Again,” then had no role for him, so lent him to Paramount for “Lucky Gor don”—he’ll play a Ladd henchman who, because of his resemblance to the star, can create alibis for him. . — *— Claudette Colbert probably set a record recently by being a brides maid once and a bride twice, all with in 24 hours.

Smart Accessories Give Even Your Old Clothes New Beauty B y C H ER IE NICHOLAS TT’S patriotic to be budget-saving in dress during these challenging war times, which mind you, in no wise means that one should sacrifice attractive appearance in practicing economy. On the contrary, one of the greatest services American women can render during these strenuous times is to be cheer- radiating and inspirational in the matter of becoming dress. More and more women of keen fashion insight are realizing the wis dom of investing in one or two really worthwhile goodlooking costumes made of dependable materials of sterling quality that are smartly styled with utmost simplicity rather than to acquire a lot of shoddy clothes that never seem the right thing to wear to the right place. However, the goodlooking suit or dress tells but half of the dress story. The other half is told in one important word—accessories! It’s amazing what magic lies in a flat tering hat, important jewelry items, a dramatic use of colorful gloves and belts and bags, in a bright- printed handkerchief, or a spectacu lar show of intriguing buttons on what might otherwise seem a hope lessly plain dress or suit. There really is no more potent way to chase away an inferiority complex about the dress than the acquisition of flattering accessories. It you want to know the "last word” in high-fashion jewelry, it’s gilded sterling silver. To-guarantee yourself a possession that will turn your simplest black frock into an eye-impelling qostume, treat your self to a set of gilded sterling silver jewels designed by Monet as shown to the right above in the illustration. The bracelet, the clip or brooch, each item is so light yet has that expensive look that makes them real conversation pieces. The tall, sculptured crown and the dramatic brim of the hat worn with this jewelry tells the story of smart millinery for fall. The elegant, ini tialed suede bag is a masterpiece that is perfectly attuned to the pa trician pace set by the entire ac cessory ensemble. You can count on buttons to carry gown and coats and blouses to dizzy heights of style distinction. There’s nothing smarter this season for but tons than silver, and you can use them to your heart’s content for there is no ban on silver. For the buttons that go meandering down the front and over the pockets of the suit shown to the left above La Mode has molded luck into the ster ling silver cloverleaf pieces. These gleam effectively against their dark background. The suit you plan to wear another season can be given a new look with silver buttons. Below to the right in the group is one of those winsome frocks done in pastel wool that young girls re gard as perfect to wear under their new nylon fleece coats. Note the artistry of its stunning large but tons. The stunning hat shown below to the left In the picture is made of finely pleated and intricately manip ulated crepe. A band, Egyptian in design and studded with colorful stones is a color delight. The flow ers on the ’kerchief by Burmel pick up the bright hues of the jewel-stud ded hat band, and the color scheme of costume is perfect. This flower- splashed “hanky” is pure linen, and that’s something to brag about these days. Released by'Western Newspaper Union.

This is notably so in the way edges of dresses, coats, capes and blouses are being finished off with animat ed little dangling balls and fringes of varied types. Designers are us ing cunning bead ball trims and lit tle balls of cord formation, also of wool yarn, and even velvet-covered balls dangle along the edges of yokes, shoulder epaulettes, scarfs and from drawstring bags and about the brims of hats. Back into the fashion picture, too, have come wee fur tail trims, and' quite a little bead fringe is being used. Other trims that are in the news include bows galore and vari ous demure and quaint uses of rib bon. Toudies of knit and crochet abound as a trimming feature, and there are some interesting things being done with crocheted metal thread. The beadwork and sequin em broidery that is being done this sea son reveals many new and artful uses, with special enthusiasm shown for all over nailhead studded effects. T em peram ental Watchhemlinest They are grow ing very temperamental. They dip, they slash, they take upon them selves deftly scalloped or saw-tooth edges, and they capture ruche ef fects and revel in fringe embellish ment. They indulge in band em broidery treatments, and they some times achieve drape effects that give them grace and new distinction.

STEPS TOWARD SOLUTION OP THE ALCOHOL PROBLEM LESSON TEXT—Ecclesiastes 10:17; Amos 9:21*34; Bomans 14:19.21 H Corinthians 6:17; I Feter 4:1-5.GOLDEN TEXT-Let Judgment run down as waters, and righteousness aa a mighty stream.—Amos 5:24. Let’s do something about it! That: is the right word regarding the liquor problem now. The time is past for theorizing or deploring—we need action. The liquor interests have redoubled their efforts of late because they fear the aroused pub lic opinion of decent Americans. Why do not America’s 65,000,000 church members say the word now, and curb this awful thing which is threatening to destroy us? I. Right-Minded Rulers (Eccles. 10:17). National leaders should set the example for the people—an example of sobriety, of clear-headed thought and full devotion to the cause of our country. Are they doing it? We quote: “Washington is the wet test spot in the nation. The per capita consumption of alcohol in the District of Columbia is almost twice that of the wettest state in the Union. In 1940, 4.26 gallons were consumed for every man, woman and child. Nevada, the wettest of all our states, consumed 2.65 gal lons per person. There at Washing ton where they need the clearest beads, the steadiest nerves, and the highest morals, they are drinking the most booze” (Dr. I. M. Hargett). What about 1942? Those who have been able to observe, indicate that conditions are probably worse now! The secretary of war and the sec retary of the navy have insisted on the desirability of the sale of beer in service canteens. No wonder the Brewers’ Digest of May, 1941, gloated: “One of the finest things that could have happened was the insistence by high ranking officers to make beer available in army camps . . . Here is a chance for the brewers to cultivate a taste for beer in millions of young men!” America had better wake up!n. Right-Spirited People (Amos 5:21-24). God has no pleasure in the re ligious observances and the pious words of a people who profess to worship, but who come with unre pentant hearts and unclean hands. Can God bless the man (or his money) who profits either directly or indirectly from the sale of in toxicants? Amos has the answer. Let us heed his plea that righteous ness should run through our nation al, as well as our personal lives, “as a mighty stream.”m. Right • Living Christians (Rom. 14:19-21; H Cor. 6:17; I Pet. 4:1-5). We have already suggested that there are 65,000,000 church members in America. If they were all right- living Christians there can be little question that they would long since have eliminated the liquor business, for it is certainly most unchristian. Apparently they are either not real Christians, or they are asleep to their responsibility. Our Scriptures in this section tell us that in a true Christian life there is 1. No offense (Rom. 14:19-21). The question here is that of eating meat offered to idols, which does not concern us; but the great Christian principle here stated is of the high est importance and bears directly in our daily life. None of us lives to bimself (Rom. 14:7). Everything we do counts either tor or against Christ. Such an ordinary (we regret) thing as staying away from church service speaks to the world and especially to our neighbors of our loss of in terest and respect for the worship of God. Apply that principle to the use of any alcoholic beverage, and every Christian must be a total ab stainer. 2. No Compromise (H. Cor. 6:17).- We have come to the unscriptural and deeply dangerous viewpoint that if a Christian wants to compromise a bit with the world, the flesh and the devil, that’s his “business.” God does not think so. He says: "Come out from among them, and be ye separate.” The weakness of the church on this matter of liquor is that too many of the 65,000,000 are guilty of the sin (and that's what it is!) of compromise. 3. No Worldliness (I Pet. 4:1-5). Here again the assumption of many is that there are two groups in the church—worldly Christians and spir itually minded ones, and that each Js as good as the other. Bot|> classes are there, no doubt about that, but God never has and never will coun tenance worldliness on the part of His people. Essentially, there are just taro op posing principles in this world—self-, will and God’s will. We are either controlled by the flesh or by the Spirit of God. Peter makes it clear that the one who claims to belong to Christ should no longer be con trolled by self-will, but by God’s will. -Are we ready, fellow Chris tians, to yield to Him? J iu * u t GkambeM, Serve a Salad . . . Win Y o u r Vitamins (See Recipes Below.) V itam in W ays Comes winter and fall when vege tables and fruits are more scarce than during sum mer and fall, and many a home maker is apt to fall shy on serv ing her family these vital body regulating and protective foods. Yet, this is the time when the body needs them most. These foods build up the body’s resistance to disease —and keep you, to pick a common example, from having a cold as soon as warm weather and sun flee. Minerals are busy building and repairing, replenishing body tissues that get torn down and used up, daily with every movement you make. Vitamins help you use the foods you eat. Good-to-eat foods help the family take in all these vital minerals and vitamins. Drab, uninteresting dishes will send them off to eating other foods to take the edge off their hun ger—wherever they can put their hands on something. I need not point out that in this way they may really be losing out on foods neces sary to the body. Cooking vegetables well, and do ing pretty things to their appear ance will help their ' consumption rating. A bit of sauce or extra sea soning will put an ordinary vegeta ble over and at the same time in sure your family of what it needs most: *ScaIIoped Peas and Onions.

Of course you don’t have to drink all this milk. .Use part of it in cooking. Second honors gp to meat, fish or poultry, and this is not hard to use up. For lunch or dinner, whichever fits best for your fam ily, one serving per person should be counted. At leasi one egg a day or at least four to five per week marks the third inch. Have it for break- fast or toss it in the hot bread for dinner, or custard for lunch. Cereal’s important, too. Serve it in the breakfast, or a pudding or even cookies. Bread and rolls come under this category, also. Fifth inch includes the vegeta bles: two besides potatoes, one should be a leafy vegetable— spinach, lettuce, broccoli, ro- maine, etc.—and the other raw. Cabbage is perfect. — Now, the fruits. Two a day isn’t hard to manage. Of course you start off with breakfast, and then include one for lundi or din ner dessert. The last and seventh inch in cludes butter or some fat rich in vitamin A.

C., OCTOBER 21.1942 I TOOL USERS AND TOOL OWNERS In a recent advertisement signed by a well-known business concern, this statement appeared: “My boss has 14 Grand tied up in me.” What that slangy use of words meant was that the average em ployee in industry represents a capi tal investment—in property, plant, machinery and equipment—of $14,- 000. In other words, labor has jobs only when some business man, or group of investors, puts up the money necessary for the creation of jobs. It was well said recently, by a student of economics, that men in governmental authority too often forget that while the rights of work ers are being considered, the owner of the tools used by workers must also have some consideration. After this war is over, the plants now devoted to military needs must be re-converted to peace-time activ ity, must be re-tooled for the kind of production they were engaged in when it became necessary to tool up for war. Labor will expect peace time jobs then, but somebody must provide the money for re-converting and re-tooling. That money cannot be forthcoming unless enough profits or capital can be stored up to meet such requirements.

Hiddenite. N. C Don’t stop to argue with the devil ' Vou can spend your time in a much more profitable way. It is far better to pray than argne. Time dpent in sincere prayer will get you far nearer God and heaven than time spent In argument. You can’t convince the other fellow that he is wrong, if he is, by argument He is more likely to get offended than be is vto get convicted and turn to God in repentance^’ You will do him much more good, in all probability, to pray for him than to argue with him. The devil is great for an argument. He likes a heated debate. He may get you out of balance by arguing with yon, or you may hurt the other fellow by arguing with him. I’ve never seen much good come out of an ar gument. Oftentimes men get of fended at each other, and sometimes fighting mad, over an argument. We can settle things far better on our knees before God than we can on our feet arguing and contend ing with our fellowmen. If you are right you don’t need to argue with the other fellow that you are in order to convince him. The truth will stand on its own merit. An error will topple over eventually regardless of all your ar gument and debate in order to de fend it. One of the strongest proofs to me that a man is wrong in his belief and doctrine, and the stanfi he takes for something, is to real ize that be endeavors to defend it by continual argument. Sound, genuine, royal trnth requires no argument for a defense. We be lieve far more barm has been done through argument than good. Time is too valuable to be spent in ar gument. Some years ago a man challenged me for a debate on a certain Bible question. He said if I would ac cept the challenge we would adver tise it well and have a great near ing. I felt that the devil iwas in his challenge, because I knew the side be would take on the question was misleading, therefore I didn’t even answer his letter. I felt that far more harm would be done than good if I accepted his challenge, therefore I paid it no attention and went right on preaching and writ, ing the truth to mankind, winning souls, and helping pilgrims on the upward way toward the celestial city. God has never convinced me that I did wrong by ignoring his challenge for argument and debate Glory to God.__________ Some folks are so dumb that they haven’t sense enough to know when they are talking too much. * 5F W h a t y o u B u y W d h W A fl B D N D S it Xha ‘'Stovepipe,” as the 60-milli meter trench mortar is commonly known, is used by our infantry tor close-in fighting.

Trtosury Dtparimtni E d a t a t i o n a l A m e n d m e n t T o o P o litic a l Tbe Union Republican yields to no one in loyalty to the schools of North Carolina and everything that appears best for the school system in the state, but on the surface it looks as if certain educational lead ers are asking the voters to approve an amendment to the state consti tution that is loaded with political dynamite. Therefore, we are tak ing the position that we are oppos. ed to this proposed amendment and believe the best interests of our schools will be served bv its defeat at the polls on November 3 . We noted recently an editorial In the Greensburo News in which that brilliantly edited newspaper sug gests that what it cannot under stand, along with a lot of other things, is why the names cif any Republican leaders should be In cluded among the indorsers of the pending school consolidation a. mendment to the constitution of the state. It will be seen in the first place that the actual campaign for the success of the amendment has been placed in the hands of the chair man of the Democratic executive committee and we suggest that the choice of a directing bead is essen tially bad, both in actuality and in implications. Were it not purely political, why select the state De mocratic chairman to direct the campaign? As the Greensboro News went on to say, “But the wording of the a. mendment and the weighing of the agency which it would set up pro vide a ban upon minority party re presentation on the consolidated board Certainly that is the prac tical effect. The new new board would be composed of a represen tative from the state at large, it would be possible politically for the governor who made the appoint ments to recognize the minority party or simply to forget partv af filiation in selection' of citizens best qualified to fill such major assign meut. But with the appointments to be made by districts, where or who is the Tar Heel chief execu tive who would desinate a Repub lican to represent any given dis trict? The practical effect of the amendment, we earnestly submit, is to write into the constKution that no minority party member can or will be named to direct the public school affairs of North Carolina, And that, we further submit, is neither wholesome nor non-partisan although these qualifying adjectives should have important place in the administration 0 f school affairs everywhere." We can see no reason why any Republican leader, would support the thing unless it were possible that he had not read it nor. did not understand what it proposes to do Certainly, no Republican would support-it in the hope and belief that some day our party will come into cower at Raleigh and then name Republicans to the board throughout the state. No Rnpnb- lican has much of a chance to be appointed by a Democratic admin istration. Wu also note that Dr. Hubert M Poteat head of the department'of Latin at W ake'Forest College and an outstanding,, educational in the stat<>, is opposing the adoption of the amendment and gives as one of his reasons the political aspect of it, as we have suggested in above para graphs. Dr. Poteat is heading a large group of educators in opposi tion and a statement they have is sued points out there are several es. pecially bad features of the pro posed amendment that justify its defeat, namely, that it would create a state board of education too large and unweildy; that the board wojld be politically apcainted from Congressional districts, which would encourage partisan political control and inefficiency, and that as to . membership On the board it would discriminate against persons connected with the.teaching profes sion or any educational administra tion of the state and require that a majority of the board be persons trained and experienced in' business and finance." The statement o f tbis group strongly deplores the "discrimina tion against the farmer, labor, pro fessional and other groups of North Carolina citizens should he given preference or discriminated against for membership on a state board of education." Everyone knows that a ’ state board of education composed of a representative of each Congression al district will mean the rankest sort of discrimination against the minority party and right now the minority party in North CaroIloa happens to be the Republican par ty. As said in the very beginning, the whole thing looks as if loaded with political dynamite and every Republican in North Carolina is called upon to cast a vote against the proposed amendment.—Union Repuolican.

Every, body wants to beat Hitler, provld. ed be, personally, can do the job. It’s a healthy sign, but it has led us down some very nasty alleys. Too many social parties. Too many corks crews. And it’s hell on the people backin the sticks Back in the days of the first World War (which the Democrats promised would end all Wats) W. W. Stood tor Woodrow Wilson. In the present World War, W. W. in Washington stands for Wan ton Waste. And we still cau’t comprehend why the taxpayers stand for it. The snide who bints that it is near treason for a man to vote ^ the Republican ticket needs boring tor the simples. The GOP is just as loyal to our war effort as any New Dealer. The Prerident recognized that fact when he selected two Re publicans like Stimson and Knox to the War and Navy jobs. TheGOP has a war record that d o New Deal er can touch. See where a . Democratic quill pushes refers to "how well McAdoo ran the railroads in the other World War." The ignoramus! Has he forgotten how many billions the Toad under McAdoo cost above the total income tor the period they, were under government control? If everything was getting on so well as the railroads are today we’d be in a heck of a better condition than we are. But the New Dealers want federal control of everything re gardless of cost to the taxpayers. We read a little squirt in the papers the otbsr day where some wild jackass said that the Republi can party was the cause of the war. Isn’t that too allfired bad? And then iust a few short years ago these same New Deal boro-tooter said that the Republican party was dead as a dodo. These fellows re. verse themselves so qnick that thry leave the bind side of their pants in front. We heard a Democrat the other day mouthing about the New Deal daylight saving law. We asked him if he could name a single thing the New Deal Democrats bad done that he did like and he said he didn’t know that he could. TbeD we asked him how he could afford to remain a Democr t under such conditions and his reply was that he could not afford to go back on bis raising. And that is the eom plexion of Southern Democracy. ★ , * W U a i y o u B u y W d h W A R B O N D S * _________________________* Barbed wire used by Unela Sam’s fighting forces is vastly different from that used on Ameriean farms.

That’s wbat the politi cians around Waahington are saying about the announcement from the White House that President Roose velt would support John J. Bennett, the Democratic nominee for gover nor of New York ' In the midst of “total war" politi cians will be politicians and it was said in Washington that it occasion ed no great surprise when newspaper devoted a liberal amount of space to the statement from the White House which set forth the intentions of the President respecting the New York gubernatorial contest. The Presi dent would, it was said, vote for At torney General Bennett the friend of James A. Farlev. Those who have specialized on the situation in the Empire State have an idea tbis White House statement, noticeably brief, is too little and too late, if there is any New Deal de sire to defeat Thomrs Den ey, the Republican candidate, who has the best of it in all the polling of the elec torate thus far announced. The Pre sident sought to defeat Mr. Farley’s candidate for the nomination bv put ting the reluctant Senator Mead, up state New Dealer in the field, and thereafter the White House main tained an unbroken silence while epeculation continued on tha point of whether Mr. R-Ioseveit would ever give the Democratic candidate any worthwhile support. Such support, it was thought, would have to take the form of an effort to putt down the candidates for governor put in the field by the American Labor party and the Com munists. Unless the votes of the A- mericar Labor party and of the sev eral leftist organizations can be de livered to Bennett it is difficult to figure a sufficient number of votes to put him in Looking to the future the fact is not lost sight of that if Mr. Farley’s friend is defeated the President and his supporters will be in position to take over the Empire state Demo cratic organization, for use in 1944 If, however, Bennett should pull through despite the opposition of the President in the pre-convei.tion cam paign, and now the very faint praise bestowed upon him by the White House, the Farley influence is likely to predominate in 1944 P u z z lin g The Statesville Daiiv Record: On September 14 President Roose velt informed Congress officially that 'so far the U. S. has little more than passed the half way mark to ward maximum possible war pro duction.” On September 17 WPB Director Donald Nelson told a congressional committee he agreed with the Presi dent, that we are in an upswing that will see a full flow begin soon after the first of next year, but added that production has arrived "at the point where, if you add a thing to our program, then you have to sub tract something.” "How. then Bhall we double our output?

WHOrS NEWS THIS WEEK Russians Carry Out ‘Scorched Earth’ Policy EscapePrison By LEMUEL F. PARTON Consolidated Features.—'WNU Release. ■\J EW YORK.—The major football outfits couldn’t keep going with out their preliminary breathers, as they now call the practice games. wr j W hile ourGen. Vandergrtft arm y and KnoivsWayRound navy have this war is their first big workout since 1918. Returns are coming in which indicate the effectiveness of this preliminary training. Maj. Gen. A. A. Vandergrift of the marines, commanding the Guadalcanal ac tion whiyh destroyed 33 Japanese planes without the loss of a single U. S. A. fighter, is a veteran of 33 years of remote brush and jungle- fighting, with no world-pennant at stake. His performance is compara ble to a 90-yard ran by a new man in tbe big-time lineup, and so recognized by his chiefs of the Pacific high command. The encouraging thing ir that it isn’t exceptional. We couldn’t start laboratory wars like the oppo sition, but we made the most of our limited and casual schedule. General Vandergrift has seen action in Cuba, Panama, Nicaragua, Mexico, Haiti and China and has annexed the Nicaragua and Haiti Campaign medals, the Marine Corps Expeditionary medal and the Mexi can and Yangtze Service medals. He was upped to the rank of major general on March 30 of last year, and it was revealed six months ago that he had been given the marines command in the Solomon islands. He was born in Charlottesville, Va., March 18, 1887, was gradu ated from the Dniversity of Vir ginia and joined the marines January 22, 1909. He was first under gunfire in the assault on Coyotepe, Nicaragua, in Octo ber, 1912, took part in the occu pation of Vera Cruz in April, 1914, and fought against the hos tile Cacos in Haiti in 1915. In China, off and on for many years, he commanded the ma rine barracks at Tientsin and the marine guards at the U. S. embassy at Peking. He is an outstanding reminder of the fact that the marines never were homebodies. General Vandergrift was married in 1909 to Mildred Strode. They have one son, serving in the marines. Two German soldiers dash madly for safety as a terrific blast sets an oil dump afire behind their lines. Russians who remained behind to make sure that the “scorched earth’* policy was effectively carried out blew up the oil wells at Krasnodar, even after tbe Germans had moved in.

Andrew Furuseth, “The Sailors’ Lincoln,” died January 22, 1938, at the age of 84. That is no reason why he shouldn’t be news on any later day. When we knew him, he had finished his battle against the crimps, in San Francisco, a lean, gaunt old man with a Viking face, still living in his tiny cubicle on the Embarcadero, still accepting only seaman’s wages, as head of his union—still fighting for better con ditions In the forecastle. In his fight against the crimps—kidnapers of seamen—a judge had threatened him with .a fine for contempt of court. He said: “You can’t make me any more lonely than I always have been. You can’t give me food worse than I always have had. My sleeping quarters will be no more cramped than they have been at any time.” It was true. He had no vested interest in unionism. For many years he ,besieged Washington, put ting forward his seamen’s act, win* ning in. 1915 after a battle of dec ades. He was born in Norway,' gained little formal schooling, went to sea at the age of 19, and cams to this country in 1880. Iaskedhim once why he lived so meagerly. I had tried to put the question tact fully; but it plainly was an affront. “To live-better than the man I represent would be dishonest,'’ he said coldly. There could-be no better solvent of labor-indus- try troubles than a true and un derstanding invocation of his memory. — • — I N MARCH, 1918, Thomas , Hitch- 1 cock Jr., 18-year-old member of the Lafayette Escadrille, fighting in France, got a bullet through the thigh and was downed behind the German lines.

MOCKSVILLE, N..C. S m a r t W o o l k n i t F a b r i c s U s e d F o r W i d e V a r i e t y o f P u r p o s e s B y C H E R IE N IC H O L A S tT sHE vogue for woolknit'fashions and handknits is reaching a new high this season. To see a collec tion/of smart new woolknits is to know the reason why they are mak ing such an enviable record in the fall mode. It is almost unbelievable that such things can actually be in the knitted realm as the gorgeous plaids, checks, stripes, tweed-like effects and other fabric pattemings achieved in current fashions. But added to its flattery and attractive- ness. you will find in knitted apparel well-made garments that will be practical and comfortable in a win ter of lowered temperature due to the new fuel-saving program. Then, too, in the wool knitted fab rics, which include not only jersey but many worsted tweed and basket- weave types, one is able to find in teresting surfaces that priorities are forcing out of some woven fabrics. Attuned to the rich coloring of an autumn day is the window-pane plaid used for the woolknit suit shown to the right in the above pic ture. Later .on you can wear this dramatically colorful suit under a winter coat and with your new giant fur muff and neckpiece—what a pic ture I The large profile beret is just about the smartest in fall headgear. The jewelry ensemble (and how es sential is important jewelry to the costume this season!) is gold plated silver set with large aqua colored stones and rhinestones. The good looking alligator purse qualifies as high in style prestige. Every inch a thoroughbred is the beautifully styled wool tweed-knit suit shown to the left in the above picture. The color scheme inter mingles blue with gray. The hat is a soft breton in gray with a scarf of sheer red woolknit. A gold plat ed sterling silver spiral clip fastens the scarf to the shoulder, and there are matching earrings. In the artful uses of yam crochet, knit and embroidery touches design ers have tapped a new source which is yielding a flow of ideas revealing the vast possibilities offered in yarn technique. Fashions of today are being lavished with ingenious knit ted and crocheted effects. The oval inset picture is of outstanding in terest in that it illustrates a trend now so pronounced in the costume design program of combining knit ted detail with wools and other ma terials. In this instance a brown wool dress is designed with an aqua knitted yoke. A family relationship is established with the hat in that the swirling beret is trimmed with matching knitted fabric. Throughout the fall and winter collections costumes are noted that have yokes, pockets, belts and oth er intriguing crochet or knit details interworked with the wool of the dress. If you prefer to wear knit ted accessories rather than have the knitted theme incorporated into the dress or coat itself, you.will find a feast for eyes in the intriguing items on display. The hat and bag sets, also hat and muff sets, done in multi-colored yams are simply irresistible. The hat may be any type from a wee pillbox to a wide brimmed casual— with pointed skyscraper crown, and you will be seeing the smartest mit tens that fit like a glove and have interesting detail to complement the stocking caps, pill boxes, tricornes and other knit headwear worn.

This mandarin coat lined with multi colored, specially woven cotton in a homespun-like texture is a case in point. Worn on the light sjde it makes a perfect foil for dark clothes or looks dainty with party frocks in pastels. Either surface is right for evening wear or with dress-up date dresses in which girls go to service men’s tea dances all over the coun try. Sheer Lace Bodice Tops Black Dresses Something most alluring is hap pening in evening and “dressy” aft ernoon costume design. It is the use of sheer bodice tops, yokes and sleeves either color-matched to the dress or in lovely pastels or in sharp contrast. It is the black dress that for the most part takes on these alluring transparent touches. The sheerest of sheer black lace is made to ap pear even more sheer when the yokes or sleeves are posed over.a nude-colored sheer such as chiffon or tinted tulle, thus accenting pretty shoulders' and throats and arms. Many of the pretty shoulder effects are elaborated with the sparkle of sequin and spangle, or with flashes of jet beads or jeweled embroidery. The street length formal frock needed something to differentiate it from just the usual afternoon dressy frock, and the nude shoulder effects, do just that. Even the less formal afternoon frocks are being sleeved and otherwise “beautified” with ex quisite bodice tops. • / C oat.Types .

THE CHRISTIAN VIEW OF MARRIAGE LESSON TEXT—Genesis 2:18-24; U atthen 19:3-6; John 2:1-5.GOLDEN TEXT-M arriage is honorable in all.—Hebrews 13:4. The home is not just one of the Institution^ of our social order, it is a part o'f God’s plan for man. It thus holds a position of greater im portance than institutions of society, and should take first place in our thinking. Home and the life which centers In it has lost much of its meaning and value in recent decades. It is appropriate and timely to StudJr for four weeks in our Sunday schools the foundation principles of the home and to learn how we may hinder or help it in its influence. Teachers will wish to make much of this vital series. We begin right when we inquire what the Bible teaches about mar riage, and we find the instruction plentiful and to the point. Concern ing marriage we learn of I. Its Origin—Ordained by God (Gen. 2:18-24). Nations and states have marriage laws, and certain civil requirements must be met. .But true marriage from the Christian viewpoint is far more than a civil contract. It is an ordinance which God Himself or dained from the beginning for the welfare of man. As Adam gave names to the ani mals (which, incidentally, tells of his intelligence and ability) they passed before him. It became evi dent to him that there was no true fellowship between man and beast, that there must be a "help meet” for man, one of his own kind, with his capacities oi personal being. God quickly and adequately meets every real need of man, so He cre ated out of Adam’s own flesh one who was to be his true companion. “If man is the head, she is the crown,” said Matthew Henry. “The man' was dust refined, but the woman was dust doubly refined, one move fur ther from the earth. She was not taken out of his head to top him, not out of his feet to be trampled upon by him, but out of his side to be equal with Him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be beloved.” So God ordained marriage, but down through the ages man has seen fit to tamper with God’s holy arrangements, adjusting them to suit himself, so we need to be re minded of the truth. n . Its Control—Not Subject to Man (M att 19:3-6). Because of the hardness of-man’s heart ' Moses permitted divorce (Mark 10:4, 5), but God did not intend it from the beginning. The Jewish rabbis had so stretched the interpretation of that act of Moses that a wife could be divorced for almost any reason. The same was true among heathen nations. Our Lord makes it very clear that man has no authority to determine such matters at all, that-the union of life in true marriage is by the act of God, and that no man has power to sunder such a relationship. The whole trend of thought on marriage has been away from its sacredness as a divine institution,- and we need to return to a proper appreciation of it as such. Al! too often, marriages are mere civil agreements, hastily made before a justice of peace. We need to en courage our young people to rec ognizem . Its Dignity—Sanctioned by Christ (John 2:1-5). The wedding ceremony tells us that marriage “is ,an honorable estate, instituted by God in the time of man’s innocency, confirmed by the teaching and hallowed by the pres ence of our blessed Lord, and likened by St. Paul to the holy union that exists between Christ and the Church; and therefore is not by any to be entered into unadvisedly, but reverently, discreetly and in the fear of God.” •- At the very -beginning of His pub lic ministry Jesus performed His first miracle as His share of. a wed ding feast. It is true that He does share every occasion of joy and sor row of His people, but it seems to be significant that this first occa sion for His miraculous power was a wedding. He was there to rejoice with and to bless those who bad exchanged their vows in marriage. Siould He not be the unseen guest at every wedding? Whether in tj)e home or in the-church;- whether the occa sion be a'sim ple or an elaborate one; whether a host of friends at- tend or only the witnesses—always and everywhere Jesus Christ should be recognized as the One who stands by to bless; and to unite the two lives, for His own glory. This means that the ceremony should, be a Christian one, with prayer a vital part of it, and the will of God paramount.- Then in deed, God may and will join togeth er that which no man can put asunder.

H allow een P ran k s October’s the month which flaunts her gay, burnished colors as a pre lude to winter. It’s the month of ap ples and cider, of p u m p k in s an d squash against dry sheaves of corn stalk, of fragrant g in g erb read or _______ doughnuts fried crisply tender in hot sizzling deep fat. October’s the month of Halloween —when witches, spooks and black cats make merry. Big ones or wee ones will love a party that mingles what’s best in October with the' spookiest of what’s Halloween. Pretty up with a party and give your spirits a lift with traditional food that’s easy on purse strings, a hit with the party-goers. Decorations can be nature’s own, a pumpkin or two whole or cut into a jolly face lit with candle glow, squash and ap ples banked with deep yellow, brown or red leaves, bowls of apples, grapes, popcorn and spicy drinks. Let the children paste black cats, owls and witches onto mugs and in vitations inviting guests to come as their favorite spook be it an owl, witch astride a broomstick, or a slinking cat. Have a good hot dish if you are having the Halloween party indoors —something fixed in advahce that you can put in the oven to get warm, slip out In a hurry to get to the table like tuna fish souffle, cheese fpndue, macaroni and cheese with broiled bacon slices, or a hamburger roast. Outdoor plans may include a wienie roast, with the children participat ing at the outdoor fireplace or grill. If you prefer hamburgers, fix the patties indoors with Aeir season ings, wrap in wax ready for broil ing. Wienies require thorough wash ing.* *■ * Construct a simple grill outdoors for roasting wieners if you aren’t lucky enough to have a brick grill. This will take a lot of the rough- house outdoors and save wear and tear on your house. Games will most likely be outdoors if it isn’t too cold as the revelers will want to roam with spirits and ghosts. Few foods equal the deliciousness of wienies roasted over the flames on forks or sticks fashioned- from branches, depending on your degree of going in for naturalness. : Plenty of long buns, already split indoors before the party and heaped high in a basket, . e re in d icated . They’re best when toasted—with lots of butter, mus tard, relish, cat sup or homemade chili sauce as ac companiments for wienies roasted to doneness with a taste of smoke and ashes. If you go in for toasting marsh mallows along with wienies, try them rolled in coconut just for a •taste of something different. They’re really good! You can’t have enough hot foods as the weather is bound to be on the crisp and chilly side. There will LYNN SAYS: The Score Card: Comer your share of these food bargains dur ing the next few weeks: Cabbage, apples, plums, pears, green pep pers, lima beans-and cauliflower.

Bake in a waxed- paper-lined square pan in a mod erate (350-degree) oven. Cool in pan. If it’s doughnuts you’ve a liking for, I’d suggest the kind made with sour cream or milk.

R e p u b l i c a n C a n d i d a t e F o r C o n g r e s s I am a candidate for a member of Congress of the United States, from the Eighth District of North Carolina, and it will be my purpose to repre sent the people of this district, as well as the State and country as a whole, and. among other things I shall stand for: (a) A vigorous prosecution of the war to the erd that it may be brought to a speedy and successful conclusion and peace restored on earth again, (b) I feel that we have enough grown men in this country to fight, de fend and protect its democracy without having to call upon the children of this land to do so. and I, therefore, will oppose drafting eighteeh-year-old bovs until there is more emergency than now exists. (c) It is my understanding that the farmers of this country constitute approximately 25 per cent of the population, and that tueir income is sp* proximately 10 per cent of the nation’s income; therefore I shall oppose any ceiling price on farm products until the farmers’ income equals an a- mount that will represent tbeir proportion of the national income. (d) I shall favor legislation that will be fair to labor and capital alikt. I favor the passage of laws to prevent strikes in plants manufacturing guns, tanks, planes, ammunition, ships and all implements of war. (e) I.shall favor the use of all money necessary for tbe successful prose cution of the war. but I think tbe government ought in all good faitb in* augurate a policy of rigid economy, such as it is asking of the people, and put an immediate end to the useless waste and squandering of public funds under the guise and pretense of war emergency,. * I have only mentioned a few things I favor. I shall at all times be sub ject to the will or its people. I was reared on a farm in Chatham county and I am now a dentist by profession. I am not a politician and am op nosed to pettv politics being in Washington or elsewhere at critical times like these. Our officers and those in authority should be devoting their entire energies in furnishing proper planes, tanks, guns, ammunition and equipment of all kinds, as well as food and clothing, for our pilots, soldiers, sailors and marines, who are risking their lives that we may keep our free dom and right to worship God in our own way. To these things I dedicate my heart, mind and strength The above conveys some of my thoughts. If you agree with these thoughts and want to support a candidate who thinks like you do, I shall be g la: to have you go to the polls and vote for me, regardless of your political party.

Let’s do tbe best we can for them. Thank you. DR. A. D. BARBER. (Political Advertisement) R e p u b lic a n s W ill G a in . Washington, 'Oct. 27 —“ Heavy Republican gains in the House of Representatives will be made in the November election,” predicted As. sistant Chairman Frank Gannett, of Rochester, N. Y. “ The strong Republican trend disclosed by na tinn.wide polls,” he added, "iscon firmed by numerous reports receiv ed - bv the Republican National Committee. A gain of 52 seats would give us control of the nekt House. Such a gain is not with out precedent" As tor the cause .in this political shift, Mr. .Gannett offered this* ex. planation: “ Americans, bewildered by tbe contradictory, mitleading, and too often deliberately deceptive propa. ganda that has been ted out from official Washington; outraged at the procrastination, bungling and waste that has marked the war produc tion program, and indignant over persistent concealment of the truth bv the Administration in power, are in revolt. “ Those who face the prospect of cold homes'this winter know that their plight is due to the lack of foresight and prolonged haggling among those in .high office who lrcked vision, and tbe ability or courage to make decisions. “ The rubber mess, which w permitted to continue for 10 months after' Piearl Harbor, to a point where our whole economic struc ture was,impaired, and every fam ily and every business affected, is perhaps tbe mast inexcusable blun der of all. Lack of foresight and stubborn ^wrangling among incom petents brought abo >t this calamity. “ What can be said in justifica tion of rationing gasoline in a land where gasoline abounds, or of rid- igly rationing sugar at a time when refinery warehouses were filled to overflowing? “ Failure to follow sound busi ness principles in awatding contracts 'f.r billions of dollars worth of em ergency construction, and failure to enlist or accept the services of men ot recognized competency and wide experience has delayed our produc tion program and skyrocketed the public debt, and in large measure is responsible for the excessively high taxes imposed upon us. “Tbe American people ^re ready and willing to be taxed to meet all necessary costs of war. But when they see their money recklessly squandered by inexperienced spen ders; wheu they see hundreds of thousands of government employees continued on tbe payrolls of gov erntuent bureaus doing no essential work, they rebel. ' “These are some of tbe reasons for the clearly apparent trend. The country demands intelligent, cour ageous direction of war expendi' tures and of the war production ef fort. The evils of which tbe peo ple complain flourish in the dark A Republican House of Represen tatives will let In the light; an in. formed public will quickly compel long.overdue reforms. M r s .

BOMBS BURST ONCE (6 VGRANVILLE CHURCH 9 E WeMeUo SEfW ice Vq TBB STORY SO FAR: JeS CoMls jnd his wife, Lee, are already on their way to. Tierra Ubre when Jeff re* selves a note from Zora Mitchell warn* Ing them not to come. It Is too late to torn back, so Jeff decides not to ten Lee, who was opposed to their return ing to me tropics. She finally agfeed to go only after Jeff had persuaded her that me Job of chief engineer for a newly organised fruit company Is me chance of a lifetime. He nearly changed hit own mind about going after talking long distance to Jerry Mclmiis, a former associate of his In Tierra Libre, who told him that Zora Mitchell’s husband had been killed. It is Mitchell's Job that Jeff has been called to GlL They are docking now at Cabeza de Negro, Jeff thinking of Zora's note, "Don’t come." NOW CONTINUE WITH THE STORY CHAPTER H Don’t corrrfe! And here he was with Lee in the curve of his arm, Buddy and Chuck tugging at his trousers, with Tierra Libre rising up out of the morning sea, the buildings of Cabeza de Negro taking shape- His arm unconsciously- tightened about Lee. Long before they drew close enough to make out details of the sturdy new docks and receiving sheds they saw the motor launch cutting along the coast as though to intercept them. It, too, was head ed for the port, and at last Curt recognized the figure standing in the cockpit. He yanked off his hat to wave it wildly. “Jerry, you old muckle-head,” he shouted. “I might’ve known you’d come down to meet us.” “Yeh, got your wireless you were coming through Cabeza. Hiya, Curt. Hiya, Lee,” called the stocky man in the launch. “It’s good to see you folks again. Where^re the kids?” Curt and Lee each picked up a child and stood him on the broad rail. Buddy, from his new vantage point, piped up: “Mummy, what’s a muckle-head?” “A muckle-head, darling,” she an swered gravely, “is your Uncle Jer ry down in the little boat. See?” There was no opportunity for dal lying here. The launch drew away and by the time the Pisces warped up to the dock Jerry McInnis-Ieath- ered face, close-cropped hair, weather-stained clothes—was wait ing for them. A dockhand delivered a message from Senor Montaya on a company briefhead. The senor had been de layed in getting down river to meet them but would reach Cabeza in another hour or so. “That one of their river boats?" “Yep. They have two. But we can talk later, Curt.” Jerry scooped up the children, one in each arm. “Let’s find a more comfortable spot tor the wait. Lee, you’re looking great! If I didn’t know better I’d guess you were twenty. Hard to believe these are yours. Marta sends her love and can’t wait to see you.” Mclnnis, chuckling, nodded from Curt’s piled luggage to his own launch boy, and Uie mestizo imme diately took possession to stand guard. Then the Associated man led Uie way from the dock to the one main street of the town. There were signs of recent 'construction. The new company was booming the village. “That’s a good dock they’ve built,” Curt said. “I suppose Mitch ell did it?” “Sure.” Just the one word, and it sounded strange. Clipped and odd, for Mc lnnis. Curt threw his friend a side- Tong glance. “Looks like they’re really going it big here.” Associated Fruit Growers—where Curt and Mclnnis, fresh from M. I. T., had their first years of practical engineering — stretched along the north bank of the Rio Negro, a hundred kilometers or more of banana plantations in an almost unbroken line. These were fed by a narrow-gauge railroad, and there was one handling of fruit from farm pick-up platforms to conveyor belts at shipside. But the new Compania Agricola Tropical, south of the Negro, had more of a problem. It wasn’t pos sible to run a railroad through to the sea. Salt marshes lay between Uieir concession and the coast and made it necessary to handle fruit by rail from farm to river pdrt, and by steamer or lighters from there to Cabeza where ocean vessels could pick it up. Not so good, two han dlings of perishable fruit. Costly, too. And the delay and expense of hauling construction materials up river was sharp in Curt’s mind. “Well, here We are.” Mclnnis stopped before a small cantina, the facade a blinding, bil ious green in the raw sunshine. Mc lnnis put the boys down, led them inside. Lee and Curt followed. “It’s nearly lunch time,” Mclnnis remarked. “Shouldn’t the kids be fed, Lee? You know what the cook ing is like here, but we can proba bly get'canned soups.” Lee smiled. “I don’t need a brick wall to fall on me. Go ahead, you two. Have a drink. I know you have plenty, to talk over. I’ll drag out my rusty Spanish and get along.” The men turned to the deserted bar at the end of the room, mount ed uncomfortable stools and ordered gin rickeys. While the native bar tender mixed them nearby, Curt made conversation. “Jerry, it’ll cost so much to pro duce and ship fruit here that I don’t see how these people can hope to compete with Associated. Not without a subsidy, and Tierra Libre does not grant ,subsidies.” Mclnnis grunted. “Well, that’s their business.” “Of course," Curt mused on, “it’s a pretty slick hombre who could put anything over on Old Man Moore. I could give even money the Old Man figures they’ll go broke getting into production, then plans to bid in and take over the conces sion cheap. Maybe throw a bridge across the Negro and handle the fruit once from pick-up to the dock at Soledad.” Mclnnis grinned, but said noth ing. The bartender placed the drinks before them, then left to lend a hand in the kitchen lean-to. Alone now, and with a furtive glance to be sure Lee was occupied with the children, Curt pulled forth Zora Mitchell’s letter. He spread it open before the other, and his face was serious, his voice low. ' “Jerry, whafve I got into?” Mclnnis read the note, refolded it, slid it back to Curt. He frowned. He took a long pull at his drink. ' “All right, Jerry, out with it,” Curt spoke again. “What’s up?” “Well, Curt,” his friend said final ly, “my reason for coming down L “There’s nothing I can pnt a .fin ger. on,” to the coast to meet you wasn’t altogether social. But now I’m here, I have my doubts. There’s noth ing I can put a finger on.” He paused. “Come on, pal, we know each oth er’s first name. Spill it.” It came out slowly and in pieces. “Well, Curt1-I can’t help feeling there’s something fishy about your new outfit. They have more men on their payroll than we have, for instance, Americans as well as na tives, trying to get things set be fore the next rainy season. That’s a ll. right. But Soledad’s the only live spot—such as it is—within their range. You couldn’t call Cabeza a satisfactory place to liven a fellow up over a holiday. “So—well, damn it all, you’d ex pect that gang to come to Soledad once in a while. But no one ever does. The two Swedes and the Dutchman I told you about are the. only ones who ever get to Soledad, and that’s only on business, to super vise receipt of shipments. “And they don’t talk! We tried to get up a ball game with your people once. No go. It’s as though this Montaya was afraid his men’d spill something to our advantage. And that’s carrying the rivalry theme a bit far for this business and this country. I—well, you see how vague it is, only a feeling . . .” Curt reflected. He pushed his glass around in circles on the Jbar. “Ever get over ,to the new plant ing yourself?” “No,” grinned Mclnnis. “That wouldn’t be etiquette. The Old Man paid them a courtesy visit once, but we’re rival outfits. If I went over they’d think it snooping. AU the dope I’ve had on them is picked up from natives. You know how stuff gets around. “And that leads right into what I reaUy came down here for It was especially to—uhr warn you. But, he held up his hand, “don’t ask me against what. I don’t know. TTiat note from Zora Mitchell—I’d talk to her as soon as I could. Sounds like she knows something.” He held an uncomfortable silence for a moment. Then:’ “I got hold of a rumor after you caUed me several days ago. There’s no evidence, mind you, and it was too late to stop you by cable. WeU1 the natives working for me have their own ideas about MitcheU’s death. They say it was no native did the job, but a couple of white men. But Curt,” he expostulated, “you know no white man would hack a guy to pieces the way Mitch was found.” Curt thought this out. “Huh, unless it was to hide the fact that it was a white man’s kill-, ing. And suppose it was a white man, Jerry, or a couple of them? So what? Old Mitch knew his job, but he certainly piled up enemies. You and I know that well enough. He made engineers out of us, first job out of college, but we got plenty bruised in the process. Men with less sense of humor than we have can’t take the treatment he dished out.” Curt pulled at his drink reflective ly. ‘•You didn’t give ine any details,” he mentioned after another mo ment. “There aren’t many. A track walker found him early in the morn ing—fortunately before the buzzards did. Let’s see, the 11th, it was. About a kilometer outside of Tem- pujo, in a ditch by the track. The damn zopilotes were wheeling over head, so he got the section handcar, loaded the body onto it—” “The Ilth?” interrupted Curt. “That’s the date of their letter to me! They didn’t waste any time. Wonder how they picked a man so quickly?” “Well, the date’s correct. I re member because we had an early evening dinner-dance oh the Tekla at Soledad the night before Mitch was found. And the Tekla pulled out for Cristobal about 9:00 p. m. on the 10 th.” “It did!” exclaimed Curt softly. He looked at Mclnnis. “Their let ter to me was dated the 11th, but air-mailed from Cristobal on the 12th. Didn’t notice that discrepan cy at first. When I finally did, I fig ured the letter either made a plane to the Canal Zone, or was misdated in error.” “We have no air service to Pana ma from Soledad—direct. Course, it’s less than two hours by air to the Zone, but I doubt they’d make the flight just for a letter. Any way, I know a messenger from Tem- pujo brought mail to the Tekla just before it sailed. Came as our party, was breaking up and going ashore.” “Then the chances are the letter to me, dated the 11th, was put aboard the Tekla which sailed the 10th. Actually mailed before Mitch was found murdered. Right?” “By God, Curt, that’s so!” Mc lnnis brought his palm down on the bar. “Mitch was killed some time after dark on the IOth and discov ered early on the 11th.” “Meanwhile . . . ” Curt fell silent, then looked Up keenly. “The two Swedes are white men.” Mclnnis frowned. “And there are plenty more white men where you’re going. No, Curt, the Swedes are not what we’d want for bosom pals, but we’ve no right to jump to con clusions. Besides,” he dropped the scowl and grinned, “I did some checking up myself. Had my motor boy ask questions here .and there. The Swede made the run from Tem- pujo to San Alejo late that after noon, while Mitch was staying in Tempujo overnight.” Another silence fell between them. Then Curt spoke harshly. “Jerry, there’s more here than meets the eye. If Mitch’s killing was a grudge payment, then, Tierra Libre being what it is, there’s lit tle we can do about it. Nothing, in fact. And there’s nothing for me to worry about. I don’t make ene mies like Mitch did. But if there’s more behind it . ., .” Mclnnis heaved a sigh. “Curt, be careful! Don’t mount any white charger over Mitch. He asked for it He’s been asking for it for years. And you’ve got Lee and the kids here now. But if—well, I don’t have to say it, but if you find you’re in a. spot, call on me.” They downed the last of their drinks and swiveled to face the robm. But before rejoining Lee Curt brought up another matter. “By the way,” he said slowly, studying his friend’s face, “I saw a destroyer headed for Soledad this morning. American, I suppose— looked like ours. Any particular reason for it?” “No. The country’s quiet as a church meeting. Dr. Arecas only one step removed from being a dic tator, sure, but a good one. Seem, to be what the people n*ed, they’re satisfied. He’s solidly entrenched, too, there’s no opposition to speak of. B ut.. . .” He paused. “Well?” “Well, we had a Navy visit only a couple of weeks ago, and they cer tainly aren’t scheduled to stop in again so soon.” He added, in a puz zled tone, “Funny I didn’t see the ship as I came down the coast.” “You were pretty low in the wa ter and they were some distance off.” “Huh. Well . . .” He shrugged. They started across the room to rejoin -Lee and the boys. Mclnnis dug his fingers into Curt’s arm. " “See Zora Mitchell, Curt, first thing you get to San Alejo. But only to find out’ if you have anything personal to guard against,” 'he said insistently. “Don’t borrow trouble. You’re a family man now. What’s more, the family’s right here with you.” “Yeh, I see what you mean,” Curt answered • dryly,: his eyes oh La* and the children. {TO BE CONTINUED) FIRST-AID to the AILING HOUSE Sy ROGER A WHITMAN GUTTERS SHOULD BE KEPT CLEAR OF DEAD LEAVES THIS is the time of year when roof gutters become clogged with dead leaves, and leaders may be so filled with them that in a heavy rain there may be trouble from flooding. When gutters overflow, water runs down the side of the house and may soak through to the inside. The clogging of lead ers from this cause can be stopped by putting a wire strainer in each inlet, but this, of course, does not stop the clogging of the gutters. One of the frequent chores for a home ‘owner is the clearing out of the ac cumulation. When gutters are sus pended from the edges of a roof, this trouble can be avoided by cov ering them with long strips of in sect screening. 'These strips should be sufficiently wide to cover the gut ter for from some distance up the roof to its outer edge. The roof edge of a strip can be shoved un der the exposed ends of shingles of the second or third course, with the outer edge secured by being bent over the outer edge of the gutter, and preferably held by an occasion al spot of solder. This idea will work only when the screening is at enough of slant for leaves to slide off. The kind of screening used de pends on the metal of which the gut ter is made. For copper gutters and leaders the screening must be of copper or bronze, and galvanized screening when gutters and leaders a re' galvanized. Corrosion will be inevitable when these dissimilar metals are in contact with each other. ’ Attic Ventilation Question: I have a two-story square house, with a low attic that I use for storage. There are no louvres or ventilators in it. Would it be safe to use moth flakes on I stored articles? Or would the bot- 1 tled-up heat on warm days consti- j tute a fire hazard? I intend to in stall louvres soon. Would one on ' each side be sufficient to get rid of , summer heat, or would one louvre , and a fan be more practical? Answer: Vapors from moth flakes are not inflammable, and you need not worry about a possible fire haz ard. For best results, I should pre fer to ventilate the attic with a. full- sized attic fan, blowing through a large opening. This would not tMy cool the attic, but removes heat from the entire house. Care of Furs Question: I am a furrier. Can you tell me of some composition for cleaning furs? What I am now using is not satisfactory. Where can I get some Black dye for touching up spots? Answer: Your letter indicates that you, have very little knowledge of the care and handling of furs. You should be warned that without a full knowledge you will be taking chances ruining furs sent to you for treatment, and lay yourself open to heavy damage suits. If you cannot serve an apprenticeship yourself," you should not go into the business without the assistance of someone who is well trained. Rusted Door-Knobs Question: We have moved into an old house in which the door-knobs are badly rusted, and.the doorknob plates are tarnished and scratched. The locks are otherwise satisfacto ry. Is there a -way to touch up the plates and to replace only the knobs? Answer: It is doubtful if you could get knobs and plates of the same de signs and sizes. Your best plan would be to take them off and to have them cleaned and replated; plating with brass would be cheap est. You can get the name and ad dress of a plating shop from a ga rage. Dnited Linoleum Question: In replacing our old kitchen range we find the linoleum badly dented by the old range. How can these dents be taken out? Answer: The best thing to do with your dented linoleum is to have a new piece set in. A good linoleum layer should be able to do this so that the patch will not be noticed. If you ‘cannot obtain a piece that matches, a contrasting paiiel would look all right. Another suggestion is to get a separate linoleum mat and lay that under the new stove over the old piece. The edges should have a metal binding. Cork Insulation Question: I can get a considerable quantity of broken cork, which it is my idea to place between the joists in the attic. Would this make good insulation? - . Answer: If it is in chunks of vary ing sizes, it will not-be so good. But if ground into something larger than powder, it should be very satisfac tory. It should not be attractive to insects. Blackened Bricks . Question: Through continued use of our fireplace, the inside bricks have 'been burned black in spots and this is very unsightly. What can you suggest to permanently remove these spots? Answer: Complete removal may not be possible, for the soot has set tled deep into all the roughnesses of the.brick. Your best chance is to scrub with a thin paste of a scour ing powder moistened with water, following with ample rinsing.. Start by getting off all that will come with a stiff, dry brush.
