" Man’s Greatest Problem Rev. WftlterE. lsenboor. Hiddeoitft N. C Mail’s greatest probtem on earth is sin. We are in a fallen, sin* cursed' world, therefore we have much that Is hard, trying, trouble some and testing to go through as we live out our lives on earth. Sln has brought about all the suffering, all the bloodshed, all the detestable and cursed things 'th a t beset us. Sin is everywhere present In this world; And it brings its -perplex ing problems everywhere. No man has ever beep able to master sin and its hard problems within himself. H e can’t; Sin Is too powerful.: Instead of his mas tering sin sin masters him. There is only one means of having mas tery over sfo and wickedness, and solving sin’s bard, dreadful, per. plexiog problems, and that is thru the presence and power of God. We know God’s power is mightier than that of sin. Therefore every human being on the face of the whole earth needs God in his - life. No one can afford to' go through Iife witbout God,' E veryonew ho does is defeated while living, and shall be defeated In the world be. yond. It is pitiful to see men every, where groping their way through life with the awful probleipsof sin confronting them without taking the Lord Jesus Christ as their Sa viour and Master to successfully helDtbem through. Before Him the devil slinks and cowers away, otherwise the devil has the mas tery. Every man possessed 'with sin and wickedness is mastered, and mastered forever, unless he seeks the I/>rd and finds Him as bis Sa viour. Sin’s problems entangle him, tWine about his life and 'soul, and drag him down to defeat' and eternal damnation. Then it is liu t the reasonable, right, common sense thing to take God iuto the life and let Him lead, guid^ direct, shield and protect Us, and solve sin’s problems for us along our . pilgrim journey. O, that men everywhere would seek God, pray unto Him continu ally, trust Him fully and always rely upou Him for help! When we are fully consecrated unto .Him we find that He is ever present; He leads us out of all difficulty that the devil trys to ensnare us with. He outwits the enemy in our behalf. H eupliftsandsnstains us. : He solves all our problems’ as w e go through life. This is life’s better way. Hallelujah! We re commend 6 od Almighty to every person.

Added to that we saw storm 'slg. unis hoisted at Raletgh lastw eek when 200 prominent dry leaders— practically everyone.of them being Democrats — appeared before, the House propositions and grievances committee, of which Representa tiv e s G. Brawlev of Durham... is chairman, pleading for the right to vote on the liquor issue. ' Dr. I. G. Greer, , general super intendent o f Mills Home, the North Cariilina; Baptist orphanage at Thomasville; sounded the _keynote when he told the committee that they had not gathered to discuss the merits or demerits of IiqUor, but he added, "it is preposterous that people have come here and beg for a chance to vote—a right guaran feed ‘them by the Constitution.' of the United States.” W hileD rM T. Plyler, editor of the North Ca rolina Christian Advocate, voiced approval of all that Dr. Greer had said, Dr. Charles H. Durham, act* ing pastor of tbe First Baptist church of Raleijgb “ rang the bell” when he said: that repeated refusal of the assembly to let citizens-vote .OVthe liquorcijttestion was a refur Sal of constffutioifal rights. “ The big questionis that of democracy, be added. ISe joined others in pre dicting “ if /ihfe General Assembly doesn’t allowthfepeople to express themselves 00 this question ybti are going to hear' them thunder next year.” The Democtitic party in N orth Caralina has sold out; •' body and soul, to the liquor interests, says a prominent minister—and a Demo, erat—and if we decent people, we Christian people, cannot get resul s in our Own party we can turn to an* Other party for it.' He might well have added that the Republican party is pledged to a statewide re. ferendum on the liquor issue. That paragraph in the G. O P. platform is a ringing and challenging one. There can be no mistake where the Republicans party stands on that issue. - Then, we are beginning to wood, er if 1928 is going to be repeated. The Democrats ran a wet Catholic for President and the Republican party, with H erbert Hoover, a dry Quarker, for President, carried North Carolina by 64,600 majority. Let’s don’t fool ourselves, however, too much. It was Al Smith’s mem- bership in the Rowan Catbdlic church that added to. his downfall. The Democrats came right back lat. er to run Frsnklin D. Roosevelt—a ringing, wet thought and throught who declared in his acceptance ad. dress that the 18th Amendment was doo med. .. Under , his leader.; ship saloons sprang up all oyer the country. H e pledged to “drink our way back to prosperity.” But we are about to wander fair afield by gbing into national pbliti. caltics. : The present General As. sembly overwhelmingly Demeu cratic—appears to be sold out to the liquor interests. We must wait for the final vote on the bill pre sented bv R. E Price, of Ruther- fordton, calling for ' a refereudjtn o n th is all-important issue to see exactly , where w eare. The hear- know whether that group will re port the bill favorably or not. However, storm signals are be ing hoisted. The Democrats are muddling up their leadership under the guidance Of Governor Brough, ton. to such an extent that the Re publicans may vet Gnd themselves in their best-positioa in vears to carry fhe Old N orth Stat'e - Sim DeLapp’s matchless leadership as state chairman mav swing us righf into control of tbe state. The Christian Advocate rigbtiy says the Iiqtior sitoatiou in tbe state is little short of a disgrace It adds: “Under the pretense of efforts, to ‘control*. beverseealcobol these a- mount to efforts to ‘promote’ liquor drinking with an even "larger alco holic content. Witness the present qills before our General Assembly. Then, too, think of the violence done democracy by not allowing all people to pass on. the present situa. tion with 75 per cent of onr people in the country. These good, tem- D erate citizens are to be shut out while the city folks and certain wet spots in the state control the entire liquor set-up. Most assuredly the tima has come'for astate-w ide ref erendnm btf the liquor issue. If our representatives at Raleigh are afraid of democracy they would do well to be consistent and stop talk ing about democracy for the na tions. We bnv bonds, pay heavy taxes and sved our boys to the ends of the earth to give themselves to secure the ‘freedoms’ counted so dear.

In one brief artizle but two- or three phases of such nonsense can be mentioned. On a recent Sunday one of the leading ministers of his deno mination, the pastor of one of the strongest churches, according to the newspaper report, taught his congre gation that physical suffering is one of God’s methods of discipline to bring people to their senses and make them acknowledge Him. . This, to say the least, is pure nonsense If it were true, then when we build hospi tals and have the suffering scientifi* cally treated, we are trying to de feat’God in His own method of try. incr to bring the sufferer to his sen ses'and. make him or her a Chris tian. Nonsesnse. I have a brother- in-law, who for forty years has been a leader in bis church; a good man; chairman of the -Board of Deacons and tiharice collector. The first of Petruary of last year he ,was taken violently; his hospital bill was nearly a thousand dollars; he has probably not been able to attend a single ser vice, perhaps permanently an inval id. His nearest neighbor is not a church member; has never been a church attendant; perhaps never gaye-a dollar in .his life to any phase of church work; he is a healthy man, >lder than the other, but entirely well. ahd always has been. Another phase of religious non* sense is the argument frequently heard and seen in print that it is our wickedness that involves us in the present global war; pure non sense, nothing else; too absurd for in* telligent people to listen to, much less believe. A third I will mention is that wickedness only leads to the down* fall of tribes, governments- and na tions; this too. is pure nonsense. Thehighestauthority ostimate thst the race had been on our planet from SOO to 625 times as Iong prior to the Christian Era as since which is 2,000 years, ' Tbroogh aU these long ages weaker tribes were being conquered and merged into the stronger; waB their subjugation doe to their' wick edness;' By no means, but due to in ferior numbers. strensrth.'snd fight ing ability. ■ Tbree centurles before the begin* hing of the Christian Era Alexander the Great, overran the than known word, the RAma.

Julius Caesar conquered .ill Gual which included France, Beliiamt Switzerland then crossed the Eng lish Cbannellinto England, tribe# and people were forced to surrender and submit to the rule of Rome. Was their subjugation doe to their wick edness? A thousand times no. I t was due to the superiority of the Roman Legions. . A' century and half since Napoleon all but eonquerrd all of Europe, be fore Waterloo. Were his conquests due to the sins of the people? Never. But to Napoleon’s war machine. Coming closer home, has the no torious Hitler subjugated, ill treat ed and slaughtered millions in the smaller and weaker countries of Europe because they are indescri bably wickel and deserve such a fate? Nonsense, pure and simple. Every people overrun is far better morally and religiousiy: than' HiUer and his criminal gang of lieutenants.

N. C. Who's News This Week By Delos Wheeler Lovelace Consolidated Features.—WNU Release. "^E W YORK.—The sooty ends of the mustache of Brig. Gen. Frank O’D Hunter sweep skyward. They seem to swagger as they sw e e D . And H eN eednU W ateh „n the gen- Y o u n g er A irm e n eral they are T o L ea rn T ric k s JiistHe seems to swagger, too. His middle has thick ened and his best profile has two chins, but even without a plume, a cape and doublet and hose, he looks as swashbuckling a fighter as all the 18th century could chum up. Outwardly, that is. Actually, the general, on his record, is tough, di rect and silent, no fire-eater at all. His prediction from London that our attacks will finish the Luftwaffe along about 1943 is substantial talk. The general is not one of the youngest American brigadiers, bat he is young enough, 48, and his Eighth American Fighter command, very likely will fol low him toward Germany off the airfields of England more often that it will leave him behind. He downed eight German planes in the First World war and can wear a DSC with .four oak leaves, a Purple Heart and a Croix da Guerre with palms. The oak leaves and palms indicate repeat perform ances. In the following peace he set cross-country records, crashed twice, and became an authority on precision flying, which comes in handy now. But he won’t talk about bis past and that is why he is a swaggerer only to the limit of that mustache. A long parade of reporters agree that he is a mum cuss. Invited once to say a few thousand well- chosen words on why he remained in the army, he answered: “I guess it’s because I like the life,” and went back to his tip-to-tip Sights.

The new Amer ican commander of all forces in Britain is a flier too old to be fooled and his proposal to intensify bombing of the Nazis points to a show down. Lieut. Gen. Frank M. Andrews started from West Point in 1906 as a man on horseback. But in the last World war be quit the cavalry for a cockpit. Since then he has held increasingly impor tant air commands. In his own amphibian he hong up three world records, so the water hazards should bother little when he orders an invasion across the English channel. He is an expert on blind flying, too, and English fogs or cloudy French skies ought not to trcuble him, either. The general was quite a spell get ting to a colonelcy over the army’s peacetime promotion hump. He made it in 1935. Since then, how ever, he would have done well to carry an extra star at all times. Promotions piled in that fast. He comes to his command from the Middle East where he earned a Distinguished Service Cross. He has a couple of Nic araguan decorations, too, and if he wishes may also sport the medal of a commander of the Italian Order of the Crown. If he wishes! K /l ME.

T HE March of Time’s “One Day of War—Russia, 1943” is probably the best documen tary film that has come out of this war. That was the opinion of Walter Graebner1 their war correspondent, when he saw it in Moscow. His adventures in getting it to the MOT’s New York office would make an exciting mys tery film. Once, when he looked for the cans of film, they had disap peared! He waited in Teheran for a duplicate print to be flown to him, and the plane was forced down on the way. The African offensive broke, and he had to cover it: When the film finaUy reached Cairo the Egyptian customs refused to pass it, till he talked them over. John Garfield isn’t finding his midget automobile so cramped since he worked in Warner Bros.’ "Air Force”—he spent most of his time in an improvised tail gun position in the Flying Fortress Mary Ann. Mary Ann is the heroine of the picture. Monty Wooley, “The Man Who Came to Dinner,” became the man who came to Al Jolson’s air pro gram, “Life Begins at 8:30,” and remained to co-star. After two guest Bills to draft labor for war indus try, covering both men and women, were introduced into the house and senate, respectively, by Rep. James Wadsworth of New Tork (left), and Sen. Warren R. Austin of Vermont (right). The draft would be handled on the selective service principle. They are shown looking over the measure before it was presented. Army Moms Popular A homey scene with the Lavals at Chateau Chateldon, near Vichy, as Pierre LavaI is about to leave for his office. Standing on each side of him are his daughter, Jose De Chambrun, and his son-in-law, Rene De Chambrun. Some 500 women from Atlantic City and its environs have volun teered to act in the capacity of “army moms’' at the post. They help the enlisted personnel by short ening sleeves, lengthening trousers, repairing rips, sewing on chevrons, and performing other services which Uie boys appreciate. The soldiers chip in and bny wings for their adopted moms. Here we see Mrs. Helen Neppell sewing on a button for a soldier. Ready for Stork MONTY WOOLET \ performances the combination of Jolson and Wooley was seen to be so satisfactory that it was made a per manent one. Now it’s known as the Al Jolson-Monty Wooley program, at the insistence of the former. Marcy McGuire, RKO’s 17-year- old find, is likely to become the pet of the music publishers. Making her screen bow in “Seven Days’ Leave” she sang “Touch of Texas” and “I Get the Neck of the Chicken” straight into the Hit Parade. And her performance won her a top role in her company’s forthcoming Kay Kyser-Edgar Bergen comedy, “Keep ’Em Sighing.” Gig Young put his heart and soul into his portrayal of the co-pilot of “Air Force’s” Mary Ann, which de picts the air war against the Japs from the days of Pearl Harbor. His father-in-law and close friend is a prisoner of the Japanese. The “Town Hall Club” of Boston bestowed scrolls on Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, calling their NBC hu mor “earthy,” and hailing it as hav ing “helped to unify Americans in our war effort by supplying demo cratic laughter with which to form a bond of wellbeing among our people.” Quite a tribute to two comedians who just started out being funny as a way of earning a living! — * — Ever wonder what’s happened to the kids of “Ocr Gang”?

A SERIES OF SPECIAL ARTICUS SY THE LEADINO MAR CORRESPONDENTS Japatfese' Women Trained and Ready B yR o b ertB ella ire (W tf^^eature—Throughspecial arrangement . with. WomautM Homo Companion.) SIore than in any other nation at W p ir-with the single exception of Soviet Russia—the women of Japan are today carrying the main burden of Sghting oh the home front. The war work of Japanese women has released at least 2,000,000 able- bedied men for military service. Probably another 2,000,000 men have beee made available for vital war production jobs because women have replaced them in nonessential posi tions. Not only are Japanese women hit harder than the women of other na- tioj«s by government demands for sacrifices in the standard of living; they are also more active in “front line combat duty.” That is the way the Japanese government describes their work in civilian fire-fighting squads which combat incendiary bombs such as those dropped on Tokyo by Jimmy Doolittle’s raiders last year. Hundreds of thousands of Jap anese women are working in muni tions plants, road construction crews and auxiliary police work. Thou sands of others work on trains and streetcars. Some work as stevedores on the same docks where American prisoners of war have been put to work. Yai-san, cook in my Tokyo home, headed one of the thousands of neigh borhood firefighting squads which the authorities hope will save them from being burned out when Japan’s enemies carry out mass incendiary bomb attacks against Japan. First Aider in Every Home. At least one woman in every household has been trained to fight incendiaries and administer first aid to the wounded. And the training has gene far beyond theory. For four years millions of Japanese women have actually been tackling real bembs, tossed into the streets from army trucks during highly realistic maneuvers. They are taught to operate and re pair emergency water pumps, scale high walls without ladders, climb rapes up the walls of four and five- story buildings. They are trained to carry wounded down fire-truck ladders from smoke-filled buildings. Among these women are many ex perts in handling the high explosives with which they intend to blast out anlifire lanes arouiid burning areas to prevent fires from spreading. IUl of us who saw the Doolittle raid on Tokyo were impressed by the fact that the dozen incendiary bomb fires Which broke out before our eyes in the capital were brought under con trol within a few hours. The job Was done largely by these predomi nantly female fire-fighting units: Be cause it wasn’t a mass bombing at tack, the DooUttle raid was by no means the final test. But whenever it comes, these women are trained and ready. To conserve manpower, transpor tation and marketing facilities, the Japanese today eat about one-third as much as they ate 10 years ago. At first glance you might expect this to simplify the task of home- making for Japanese women. But they have even less time to themselves now. Jap Rationing. Today they must spend from two to four hours dailystanding in queues in front of their local food shops, hoping to be able to cash in their ration tickets before the meager stocks are exhausted. For two years the authorities have prohibited the sale of any materials Csntaining cotton, wool, rayon, linen or silk. The wearing of prewar kimonos by women also has been outlawed, on the theory that their riotous colors are out of keeping with the grim times. Consequently Japanese women today clothe them selves in the only material available to them—artificial cloth made from wood pulp. They soon discovered, to their chagrin, that this material disintegrates when washed, won’t hold a press and is a haven for every species of woodboring insect. Ia order to simplify production of ready-made clothes for women, -manufacturers now are limited to •ne standard pattern and only three Sizes—smaU, medium and large, toto which every figure has to be tilted. Japanese women once were among toe world’s heaviest users of cos metics but today extremely few Jap anese women appear in public with painted faces. Most of them prob ably would like to use a bit of pow der, rouge and lipstick but these can bo longer be purcnased in Japan. The generation of Japanese girls growing up during the war may ne* miss their permanents and lipsticks because they can no longer see west ern beauty standards in American motion pictures. But something more vital was lost when Tokyo- banned toe showing of American films. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL UNDAYI CHOOL L e s s o n BY BABOLD L. LUNDQUIST.

BIBLE TEACHINGS AGAINST DRUNKENNESS LESSON T EX T-I Samuel 30:1«. if: IsaIab 28: 1-4. 7; Galatians 5:19-21.GOLDEN TEXT—“Strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.**—Isaiah 24:9. Sowing and reaping is one of those universal laws which applies in all realms of life. What we sow we reap, whether in the farmer’s field, in our national life, or in the life of the individual. It is true physically, mentally, morally and spiritually. How surprising then that intelli gent Americans think we can go on with the use of intoxicants which have destroyed other nations and ex pect to escape the same sad conse quences. Professional men have wrecked their careers, business men lost their hard earned positions, and rich men dissipated their inherit ances; and at toe same time each of them has fallen into moral decay —all through their inability to con trol their desire for drink. Yet we continue to license its sale, and so another generation of young men must meet the same temptation. Our lesson presents three results of drunkenness. I. Military Defeat (I Sam. 30:16, 17). A crisis in the life of King David is related in this chapter. The Amalekites had taken Ziklag. The king and his family were prisoners, held by a host of barbarous men far too strong for them to oppose. He inquired of God and was told to attack. With his little army of 400 men he defeated them- Why? Be cause in a drunken debauch they were celebrating their victory of the day before. This was not the first, nor the last, time that military defeat fol lowed indulgence in alcoholic bev erages. It has happened even in the present war. Have we learned the lesson? Will we avoid that danger? In this country our armed forces and defense workers are constantly exposed to temptation—and how many of them fall, anyone may know who has eyes to see. From distant battlefronts come disquieting reports that intoxicants are among the “supplies” which find quick transportation to the very front, where they are soon put to their destructive use. H. National Decay (Isa. 28:1-4, 7). Isaiah was a mighty voice against moral corruption, and for the right eousness of God. With true prophetic insight he saw beneath the outwaid prosperity and apparent glory of his people, and exposed the sins which would soon destroy them as a na tion. Outstanding among these de structive forces was drunkenness. Turning first to the northern king dom of Israel (for the nation had now been divided), he tells ^them that though their valleys may be fertile and their cities resplendent, the collapse of all their boasted greatness will surely come if they live in revelry and drunkenness. He speaks of the coming of "the mighty and the strong one” (v. 2) who will be like a destroying storm. He refers to, Assyria—itself an un godly people, but used of God to scourge His own people who had become indulgent and sinful. There is a truth here which we need to . learn. When nations forget God and fail in their responsibilities . to Him and to their fellow men; when they become vain and self in dulgent, God will bring judgment upon them. He may use as His in strument nations who are them selves pagan, to accomplish His pur pose. The people should be led in re pentance and righteousness by their religious leaders. How sad that some set an example in the other direc tion. Others who live personal lives above reproach are silent on these important questions lest they give offense to someone who may make it difficult for them. How sad! IIL Eternal Destruction (Gal. 5:19-21). Military loss and national declen sion should be enough to align every right thinking person against intoxi cants. But far worse is the fact that they bring many, many men and women into eternal separation from God. In this passage “drunkenness and revellings” find their proper place with the other works of the flesh which close the door to the kingdom of God. There is no use trying to dismiss or cover it up as the un fortunate weakness of an otherwise nice person, or the natural result of a bit of social fellowship. . America has too long regarded a drunken person as a joke—or at most a bit of a nuisance to be indulged apd tolerated. The Bible says that “they who practice such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God” (v. 21). That is plain enough, isn’t it?, Mr. Drinker, outside or inside the church, had you better not think about that before you drink again? Church of Christ, is it not time for you to do something more effective to deliver the young men and women of America from the constant temp tation now placed before them?

Wine Bill Tabled Raleigh, Feb. 2 3 — Bv 22 to 18, the Senate tabled today a bill and all its amendments to create a state winecontrol division, originally In tanded to legalize the sale of wine of twenty per £ent alcoholic con. tent anywhere in the state. Amendments to revise the origi nal measure were adopted last night One, by Senator Cherry, of Gas ton, would have made the tax on twenty tier cent, or fortified, wines sold in ABC stores sixtv cents gallon, which would be double the present lew . Finance committee changes would have cut the alco. bolic content from twenty to four, teen per cent in counties without ABC stores and abolished the pro. vision creating a separate agency to administer the act and instead put the authority in the revenue de partment. They also would have increased the tax on all wines from ten cents to twenty cents a gallon and eliminated a provision to pay the division director six thousand dollars a vear The salary instead would have been fixed by the Gov. ernor and council ot state. Sfnator O’Berry said he believed several features oi the bill were un constitutional and would prohibit the sale of wine by any company which did not own a warehouse in North Carolina Id Memorium In the days of the prophet Elisha there was at Shunem "A Great Wo man” and such among U9 was Miss Susan Richie. In young womanhood for a number of years Susan Jones rendered service of a great value to her county as a public school teacher. During this time she was active and faithful in church work, a special ser vice being that of secretary of the Sunday school. Her married life was spent in another community but for about twenty one years of her widowhood she lived among us again. Her home was center of hospitality and helpfulness—a symbol of that indescribable something one gained by contact with her To her tasks whether it were ber own household duties, helping a sick neighbor, re modeling a dress, appearing on P. T. A . program or presiding over the meeting of Woman’s Missionary Union she brought high degree of good sense, efficiency, dependabitite, balance and wholesome spirit. For about twenty years nne was preBid* ent of Woman’s Missionary Society of Farmington Baptist church and for a long time was financial secre* tary and treasurer of the church and teacher of the Woman’s Sunday school class. Her going from us in June 1942 left an empty “ House by Uiei Side of the Road” and a lonely ache in the hearts of neighbors, friends and relatives who miss her; yet in another sense she Btili lives with us a shining example of the power of God’s grentleness to make His servant great.

THE RED CROSS is pressing forward on every front It is carrying overseas ever increasing stores of relief supplies, clothing arid medicines to the war victims with all that goes with that vast operation of distribution, warehousing, transportation and administration. It is shoulder to shoulder with our fighting forces from train ing camp to the front lines. Understanding and helping with the' problems and troubles of the service men and their families. Sharing the dangers of combat to make those little things that mean so much to men available in shell hole or Iiie raft Making the weary days of convalescence more bearable with the human touch and cheerful sympathy that the Gny Ladies give so well. Training our people on the Home Front Flghdng to sustain public health when doctors and trained nurses go to war. Mil lions learning through Red Cross First Aid, Home Nursing Courses, Canteen, Motor Corps and Nurse’s Aide training to meet the newneeds and the grim civilian dangers of modern warfare. Collecting our people’s blood for plasma given so freely and needed so urgendy in ever increasing amounts as the casualty lists grow. Organizing and sustaining thousands of production groups where our women give long hours to provide surgical dressings and clothing in enormous quantities. * * * The barest outline of how the Red Cross serves. It belongs to all of us, it must have support from all. The Second War Fund is greater than the First; but no greater than the increased needs. You will not fail the Greatest Mother in the World.

While the month of March has been set aside by the National Ked Cross for a drive for $125,000,000 and most of our neighboring towns are starting tbeir drive on March 1st, onr county will not start her drive until on March ISth. There are several reasons for this but one of the main ones is that you will hear over the radio the first three weeks In March many things about the Red Cross which probab Iy you have not known before. All of the broadcasts which have been sponsoring "BUY MORG BONDS" will be sponsoring “GIVE TO THE RED CROSS " Listen to your radio and read your news papers and you will see what it is all a- bout. Davie County has been given a quota of $4800, which is the most money the peo ple of Davie county have ever been ask* ed to give at one time for one cause. If everyone will give in accordance with his means, this amount can be raided. Most of our citizens want to do some thing to help in this war and there is nothing more important than equipping the Red Cross to do the tremendous job wbich is before them today and in the months to come. Fifty percent of all do nations will be assigned to war work. In order for Davie county to raise this quota, it is going to be necessary for some of our citizens to give as much as $100, some as much as $50, many as much as $25 and many more as much as $10 and $5 each. There will be but one Red Cross drive during 1943 and this is a combina tion ot a Membership and a Gift drive. Let us all examioe Cureelveg and ask ourselves if we really do want to held in this all out war. in which we are engaged. If we do.'iet’s show that we are interested in the welfare of our boys by contributing liberally between March 15th and April 1st. Go to the Chairman in your district whose name will be announced later, and make your contribution, which will save a trip to your place. While we have a big job ahead of us, just remember that this is not to be com pared with the job which has faced our soldiers in the Pacific or in North Africa. They are doing their bit abroad so . let us do our duty at hornet Notice To Registrants Registrants whose wives have become pregnant since December 7, 1941, are no longer entitled to deferment on groundsof dependency, it was announced today by the State Director of Selective Service. He stated that tbis revised policy has been made necessary because present regula tions provide that no status which was acquired on or after December)!. 1941. may be considered when deciding questions of dependency. The Director further announced that all local boards in -the State have been direc ted to reopen and reconsider for classifica tion the cases of all registrants heretofore deferred on the groundsof dependency be cause their wives have become pregnant since December 7.1941. The, fact that a registrant is a parent shall not be considered in determining the class in which he should be placed unless the child was conceived prior to Dec. 8th, 1941, the Director said. ' He further stated that this ruling.applies to all ,cases, re gardle8S of. the date of marriage, and is to be applied both in considering the classi fiction of a registrant and in determining his category Get More Tires Davie connty will get 138 passeng er tires and 72 tubes during March, according to the official quotat announced by 3*00 p. tn.

Now JeB, Collins, Jerry H dnnis and Slats Honahan are carrying out a carefully laid plan to destroy the planes and stop the Nazi activities In which Mon taya, who Is part German, Is engaged. They are at the airfield now. NOW CONTINUE W IIH IH E STOBT CHAPTER XIX Collins’ job was to assemble the bombs and release, all mechanical restraints so that impact on the Boses would explode them. He start ed to wind the vanes. Meanwhile, Curt and McInnis put saws to use. They cut half through fiH the-ground supports which held the heavy waH firm, then sheered through the ceiling ties. So much wasn’t necessary, perhaps, but it helped. Thus, ah explosion of dyna mite outside this waU would force it back against the noses of the bombs. They then planted the dynamite, dragged the two motors to the spot, measured the fuse. Against the chance that Collins might not probably set the bombs—for they were, after aU, foreign to him—a can of black powder was planted in the cockpit of each machine. At length the three charges were set, with fuses that would allow Collins time to get away. Curt grumbled. “Collins wants pictures. But we can’t risk lighting up the window strip by the flash so early. He’U have to take them when he’s ready to light the fuses.” They looked in on Collins. In the dead air of the tight-closed room he’d sweated through aU his clothes, his face was shiny wet. No picnic, this. He knew what his chances were if he guessed wrong on these bombs. “Okay,” he told them, “I’m about set. Only three noses left to screw in, then all pins to remove.” “It’s late,” worried Curt. “Close to one-thirty! Took us longer than we’d expected. Slats wiH be phon ing them any minute now.” “Teh. You two get going.” “Might’s weH.” But Curt was re luctant. Then, “You’ve no watch, Collins, take mine. It’s synchro nized with Monahan’s.” Curt and McInnis snatched up /unches of tinder-dry grass from sheltered spots as they ran to the front of the hangars. Curt was get ting anxious. His worry was short-lived! Curt and McInnis were brought up short as they rounded the end of the hang ars. The tennis court at the other end of the field was now ablaze with lights! Even as they stared, a small band of men was emerging from behind the office building headed this way. “Six of them, Jerry! The two of us can’t count on holding off that gang with pistol fire!” “Blaze the grass, Curt! AU the way to the fence and around the oth er side of the hangars to the rear fence!” Curt and McInnis raced .across the black fields, stumbling constant ly but making- ground. There were «houts behind them. Then came the furious chugging of a motorcar, headed from the up per end of the field. “They expect to get behind us. JeTry, head us off! We’H have to •top that before they reach our •ar!” They were close to the airfield branch. They turned, running at top speed toward the car, which hadn’t yet rounded the curve of mountain side. There were half-rotted logs, left from clearing the field. Curt and McInnis had perhaps a minute and a half—a mjnute. They tugged and hauled at one of the logs. Rains had •unk it into the ground, set it. They pried it loose and slung it across the tracks. The driver would see it, Ehit not in time to stop. Then came the car. Around, the curve of mountainside it sped. It hit the log, bounced from the rails, turned over. But not before a fig ure had snapped open the door and shot from it. A man rolled over and over, then scrambled to his feet- “Toenjes!” shouted Curt joyfully. Toenjes it was—a wild man in the Bare of the car’s, headlights which still worked, curiously enough, one of them slanting skyward. He had a gun in his hand but was helpless from both the glare of lights and the loss of his glasses. Curt coolly put a buHet into the man’s shoulder. "Explain that away, my fine friend,” he grunted, “when" the investigation breaks." Between them Curt and McInnis seized the raging, helpless man and bustled him along the tracks toward their car.They kept glancing up toward the vadio sation high above. No lights showed, it was a black mountain side. They reached the car, bound Toenjes’ hands behind him, gagged him to get rid of his insane, splut tering threats, and tossed him in the back. Another glance upward and a light popped on and off sev eral times under and between the two shafts. A rectangle it showed, a window. “Man, is that a relief!” exclaimed Mclnnis. “They’ll send no messages tonight!” They looked back. The black bulk of the hangars showed up within a solid thick waU of fire. The waist high grass blazed fiercely, throwing flames high into the air. They were licking at the trees overhead, they’d spread beyond the fence.Against that sheet of light they saw Collins come stumbling their way. He reached them, out of breath, tossed the camera into the car, gasped out that things were ready to pop, and collapsed on the back seat. There he discovered Toenjes. “Traveling companion we picked up to keep you company,” said Curt. They’d covered half a kilometer when Mclnnis, eyes on his wrist, said, “Half a minute, Curt!”Curt stopped the car, all three got out. They stared back. “Guessed wrong on the fuses,” muttered Curt. “Or you didn’t light them on the dot.” Then, before anyone could speak again, there came a dull, muffled explosion. In the light of the fire, the straight lines of the hangar buckled, the roof mushroomed—on one end. But the walls held together. “One of the planes,” Curt gritted out from between set teeth. “The completed one,” added Mc lnnis. “At least we got—” The sentence was lost in another muffled explosion which merged instantly into a mighty, pulsating roar that made their ear drums ache, i The sentence was lost in another muffled explosion. and the aerial bombs exploded by two and threes a split second apart. They turned to the car only to find it had been bounced from the rails. They hauled and tugged and lifted. Scarcely was it on the rails again than there came another ex plosion, closer at band but lighter. They jumped apart. The charge S E R V IC E Vi set under the bridge behind them had done its work. No motorcar would be lifted across the. drainage channel tonight. “Cripes, I’d forgotten that one,” exclaimed Mclnnis. He laughed. So did Curt and Col* lins, and it eased the tension. There was now no need for secrecy. They used the car lights and stepped on the gas. But thoughts of possible trouble ahead tightened their nerves again. Collins began to take some in terest in his fellow passenger. He played his flash on Toenjes, and turned the man’s head this way and that. Toenjes was beginning to suffer considerably from pain in his shoulder, but his eyes were mur derous. A slow, unbelieving smile spread over Collins’ face. He ripped open Toenjes’ shirt and pulled it away from the wounded shoulder. He found a puckered scar there, an old one, not three inches from the bleeding hole Curt had made tonight. And then he began to laugh. He laughed and he laughed until tears rolled down his face. The men in the front seat turned for an explanation. It came in jerks. “On a silver platter,” cried Col lins. “Mr. Curtis, you’ve made one of the neatest hauls this year. Dr. Toenjes? I hadn’t seen him before, you know. This is Herr Albrecht Werner Fisch, no less. Red-handed. One of the biggest, slipperiest, agents the Nazis have in Latir America.” And then it was tomorrow. The sun slanted down hotly on the after deck of the San Timoteo. The As sociated vessel was pushing her way north over a smooth sea. There was a cooling breeze, and cumu lus clouds moved serenely acrosr the sky. Buddy, Chuck, and Sylvia Mitch ell, all in sun suits were playing under the watchful eyes of the ship’s curse. The boys were making clown ish efforts to balance on their heads their huge straw sombreros. Curt and Lee were standing by, his arm about her waist. They were silent, and Lee felt Curt’s arm tight en as the children’s voices rose shrilly, hilariously. She looked up and saw the look in his eyes, the beads of sweat above his brows and on his upper lip, and she knew what he was thinking. “Don’t, dearest,” she whispered. He looked down at her, and his eyes slowly cleared. He kissed her lightly on the temple and they saun tered off, his arm tight about her. At the entrance to the central stair case he paused—and yawned, pro digiously. “I could do with another nap,” he said, on snapping his mouth shut “You?” “We slept all morning!” she ex claimed. “We won’t sleep tonight!” “We can sit on deck tonight.*" hopefully. “No moon.” “There’U be stars. And there’s no charge for just sitting.” Lee laughed. “AH right, sillr We’H go down again.” The door to the purser’s office opened and there was movement in the corridor. A steward was tack ing a paper on the buUetin board. “News!” said Curt. With Lee, he crossed the corridor eagerly, to stare at the typewritten sheet. “Puerto Soledad, Tierra Libre,” read the radio dispatch. “In a raid by army troops on the headquar ters of the Compania Agricola Trop ical at San AlejO this morning, what appears to have been a direct Nazi plot against the sovereignty of Ti- erra Libre was disclosed, with the arrest of Senor Apolonio Montaya and twenty-four persons of doubtful nationality . . . ” [THE END] FIRST-AID to th e AILING HOUSE by Roger B. Whitman Bager B. Whitman—WNU Features. You may not be able to replace worn or broken household equipment. IU s is war. Government' priorities come first. So take care of what you have . . . as well as you possibly can. This column by the homeowner’s friend tells you how. COPPER SCREENS Question: How can I care for my copper screens to prevent dark streaks from running down on the window sills? How can I prepare them for storing during the winter? Answer: Clean the screens by scrubbing with scouring powder and a stiff fiber brush. Then rinse with clear water and aUow to dry. Wipe with benzine (being very careful about fire), and then apply a coat of two parts good quality spar var nish and one part each of linseed- oil and turpentine. Or you could use a special thin kind of varnish that can be wiped on. When dry, lay the screens fiat in a dry place and cover with newspaper. Screen enamel can be used in place of the varnish. Rusty Nailheads Question: Flat-headed nails on the boards under the eaves of my house have rusted badly and show through the paint. How can I prevent this from happening the next time I paint? Would touching them up with red lead help? Answer: Yes, but they should be sandpapered first to remove the rust. Or you could touch them up with shellac. If it is at aU possi ble, better results wiH be obtained by driving the nailheads slightly be low the surface of the wood. The space thus created then is fiUed with putty and paint applied over it. A nail set is handy for this. Upholstery at Home Question: I should like to do over some of my upholstered furniture myself, and think I could do a good job if I had some directions. Are there any booklets that I could get? Answer: The New York State Col lege of Home Economics at CorneU university will send you on request Extension BuUetin No. 295, “Refin ishing Old Furniture,” by Florence E. Wright, (June, 1934) and Exten sion Bulletin No. 256, “Recondition ing Furniture,” by the same author (April, 1933). I beUeve these wiH be sent free to residents of New York state. There may be a small charge for non-residents. Black Incrnstations on SUver Question: How can I clean off the black incrustations from my silver that silver polish does not remove? Answer: That black corrosion is practically impossible to remove at home. Ordinary tarnishing can be taken off with polish, and sometimes with a hot water and washing soda solution in an aluminum pan. But the black corrosion should be re moved by a silversmith, who proba bly will not make an excessive charge. Unfinished Bookcase Question: I have an unfinished bookcase on which I should like to get a wax birch color effect. How can I do this? Answer: Use what is known as a penetrating wax finish; it comes in light, natural and other wood colors. The better stocked paint stores seU it. Or give the wood a coat of thin white shellac, and then finish with two coats of paste wax. Storing Fnrnitnre Question: I intend to store some pieces of furniture in the attic, which is not insulated. Wbat pre cautions should I take against summer heat and winter cold? Answer:" "After cleaning the" fur niture, polish with a paste wax. Cov er the pieces with a heavy kraft paper. I If the finish on the furni ture is of a good quality, beat and cold should not damage it. ' Fireproofing Beams Question: Do you know of any fireproof material I can put on the beams in the "basement above the furnace? Answer: Dealers in asbestos prod ucts sell a waUboard material com posed of cement and asbestos which you can apply on the basement ceiling. Building material dealers in your community should be able to get !the board for you. > Smoking Fireplace Question: Why does our wood- burning fireplace smoke? Our fur nace is connected to the same chim ney as' the fireplace. Could this be the cause? Answer: If furnace and fireplace are connected to the same flue, that is undoubtedly the cause. Fireplace Coal Question: We have just bought a coal grate for our fireplace. What size anthracite should we burn-in it? Answer: Use nut size. Too MucbjHot Water Question: Would it be possible to use manually controlled valves be tween |the boiler and hot-water gen erator , to keep water from being overheated in the storage tank?Answer: -Yes, you can instaU a shutoff' valve in the pipe which car ries the boiler water back to the boiler from the hot-water generator.

W. are engaged in a war to save our American tradition of liberty and opportunity for ourselves and our children. Our leaders have commit ted us to become the arsenal of de mocracy; to furnish food for our allies; through our lend-lease to help finance the Allied war machine and, Anally, to raise and equip an army of some 10 million men. Any one of these jobs is a tre mendous undertaking. We are thou sands of miles from the theater of war, and this involves tremendous problems of transportation. AU of these jobs together will tax every resource of the United States. Al ready we face rationing and priori ties in our materials and acute short age of manpower, and a burden of taxes which indicates our financial resources are strained to the ut m ost Qf a certainty, we must have com plete unity if we are to do this job, and face the postwar future with hope and confidence.American industry, agriculture and finance must use to the maxi mum the productive power, initia tive and intelligence latent in every American. No Time or Place for Drones There must be no drones hidden away on public payrolls,..engaged in peacetime experiments which are useless under the emergency of war. Every branch of our military serv ice is devoted to the sole purpose of fighting and winning this war. Our government, both local, state and national, should inspire and lead in the support our civilian population gives to the war effort. Unnecessary civic expenditures, surplus payroll- ers, useless economic and social ex periments have no place in a war emergency. The new Congress is tackling this job with a will and a purpose. Those Congressmen are our representatives and we, the people, should support them to the. limit. Right now they are trying to bring some order and efficiency in the prevention of exces sive profits in war contracts by the Army, Navy and Maritime commis sion. The present law, passed by the old Congress, provides for a “re negotiation” of their war contracts by each department. New Bureaus Not Needed There are over three million of these contracts. Not more titan 5 per cent will show any excessive profits after taxes have been paid. The ordinary man on the street would say that the Internal Revenue Department can easily discover any excess profit from any war contract. Certainly we can use the manpower that would be wasted to much better advantage in other places. - We, the people, want Congress to adopt the most direct, efficient and economical method of doing this job. None of us believes in excess profits on war contracts. There are ceil ing prices on most things we pro duce. Now let’s get at the job of cutting down unnecessary civic ex penditures and cutting unnecessary payrollers off the payroll. WE ARE AMERICANS Our United States is a govern ment by all, conceived and dedi cated by and with the consent of the governed. It constantly pro motes individual dignity, worth and opportunity; guarantees to every citizen freedom of religion, speech, assembly, press and peti tion; safeguards private proper ty; maintains equal justice be fore the law; provides free schools for all, and constantly seeks so cial and economic security and the blessings of liberty for young and old. This is our country. Individuals or groups may have fallen short or failed in,their duty, but we, the people, press on to our des tiny. We, the people, love and cherish our Republic. We pledge support for its institutions with our lives and sacred honor.

It Is an impossibility, so far as we are able to understand the Scrip, tures, for a .man to consecrate his life completely unto God and w ith, hold his means from God. AU that a man possesses must be consecrat. ed unto God if he himself is abso lutely and unreservedly consecrat ed unto Him. Many people de sire to be true followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, live godly, and get to heaven when this life is over; but in the maantime they do not consecrate their possessions to God. They want to hold them in reserve. Just here is where manv neople fail of the rich, wonderful, glorious grace of God. There are more close, stingy, sel fish professed Christians than one might think if he has never obser ved the way they give of their means to God’s cause. People can never please God, have His rich, sweet, marvelous blessings upon their souls and lives, and feel the blessed Holy Spirit within, as long as thev are close and stingy. It the ‘"tight wads” of every church today would loosen up, quit rob. bing God, but give their tithes and offerings fullv, freely and cheer fully. what a great difference there wonld be in their Christian exper ience and in the church! They could really enjoy their religion, whereas many only endure it. They could be happy in the service and worship of God, whereas they have but enough religion to make them miserable. They are miser, able because they don’t exactly go with the sinful world, and don’t give themselves and their possess, ions completely unto God. God loves and blesses cheerful givers. H is financial plan for our lives is the tithe, or one-tenth, of our earnings. This is the teach ings of the Gld Testament, and we find that Jesus approved of it Him self when He said: ‘‘These ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.” He was pro nouncing woes upon the Pqarisees because they “ passed over' the j Jdg- ment and love Of God,” and not because they tithed. He said they ought to give tithes, but not fail of the love of God, or foil in vital Christianity. And out of the re. maining nine-tenths God would have us give offerings. Read Ma lachi, the third chapter. God cer- tainly blesses the Christian tither. He enriches bis soul and supplies bis temporal need. This is life’s better way._____________ Renew your subscription today and get a 1943 Alma nac free. tW U at tIfou, Uutf, tW ltU WAR BOjVDS Washing machines and other household appliances are not avail able today.

Ing it along. Ushers calling for help In carry ing the offering. Ministers insisting that the peo pie attend only one service each Sunday in order to make room for others. A dozen people asking the min- ter for some realty definite work to do during the week. A dozen families asking the nsh. ers to place them on the front seats. Evervone in the audience reach ing for a hymn book when the number is announced and then sing, ing heartily. Every head reverentlv bowed during prayer. A choir that does not find a sin gle thing to whisper about during the service. . The minister saying. I have rushed from on thing to another all week. I have spent less than three hours in revising this old ser- man which is rather out of date, but I will endeavor to make it fit the occasion ” No whispering or reading of papers during services. The ladies’ aid society hoping that the preacher’s wife will bring to the next meeting a long list of things, things that ought to be done in the parsonage at once. The “ old-timers” graciously giv. ing way to newcomers confident that the newcomers will be able to do much better work than they have done.

Use WoodeD Soldiers W ashington—Rep. Cooley, De mocrat of N urth Carolina, said on the House floor that anti aircraft “ guns” mounted on the roof of Congressional office -buildings are made of wood and that the soldiers stationed there are “dummies.” “ We are being protected by woo den guns and decoy soldiers,” he declared after telling the House that he made a personal inspection tour to the rooftops to check up on the “ protection” provided for mem bers of Congress. “ In high heavens,” Cooley shou. ted, t‘Why have they been placed ovor our heads I am something of a duck hunter, and when I place out decoys, I expect to atttact ducks. And when I place out de coy soldiers and decoy guns, I would expect to attract euemy planes.” Cooley said he climbed to the roof of the new House office build ing to satisfy his curiosity after in quiring the calibre of tbeguns from a member of the House military committee. He said that he had made bis in spection trip in broad daylight and in civilian clothes, and “ nobody stopped me. Nobody fired at me ” He reminded his colleagues how ever, that when they eutered the front door of the Honscoffice build ing after five p. m., they were or dered to halt and ,produce their credentials to soldiers. Asserting that there are “a doz en other” entrances to the build, ings left unguarded, he added in touas of deep sarcasm: “ I suppose that they think all the saboteurt are going in the front door.” The “ guns” were mounted on the rooftops soon after Pearl Har- bor, but, for reasons ascribed to military secrecy, the action has not been disclosed previously. 'The War department declined comment on Cooley’s assertions. 10% OF INCOME IS OUR QUOTA IN WAR BONDS DeDiocratic M ighty FaUs W bat is the m atter with these Democratic office holders in North Carolina, any wav? As if it were not enough ti. have to bear the stig ma of wholesale thefts in the state revenue department, at Raleigh, operated entirely by Democrats and rottenness in connection with the Democratic absentee ballot law, now comes along a former Demo cratic member of the State Superior Court bench in Ashevilletobecome enmeshed in a big gambling racket. It was the same Judge Zeb V. Nettles that -opened up the cess pools in Bnrke county and let the Democratic sheriff's stink escape, who now uncovers some gambling dens in his home city of Asheville and in the house-cleaning ex Su perior Court Judge Tom L. John son was caught in the net. The Shelby Daily Star rightly cracked down on the Asheville situ ation in the following editorial: “ When fudge Zeb V. Netties called in vigorous fashion -and got a clean-up of gambling and vice conditions in Asheville he might have known that what he asked wonld bring a former Suoenor court judge, a man who until last month was solicitor of the 19th judicial district, into court for op erating a gambling house in bis home. “ If he knew it, fine; if he didn’t, then it's jbst as well, for certainly the defennant in this matter was intelligent enough to know the na ture ol the law he was floating. Ignorance of the background of the “ guests” as proclaimed by the defendant, T L. Johnson, is so flimsy as merely to aggravate the offense. “ It is that sort of attitude to ward law by people who enjoy, or have enjoyed, position that is the more tragic to justice because she is ravaged by those who know and should be trusted to uphold her honor. Anything less is injustice, and compromise with such will only rise to rebuke those who indulge it.” —Ex.

Thompson) The illustrious physician, Alexis Carrel, in the Reader’s Digest makes this significant remark; Prayer is the most powerful form of energy that one can generate.” Here is a physician, connected with the Rockefeller Institute for thirty- odd years in brilliant research, as serting that prayer is the mightiest force known to man. Listen to this talented physician: “ Prayer is a force as real as terrestrial gra. vity. As a physician I have seen men, after all other therapy bad tailed, Iiited out of disease and me lancholy by the serene effort of prayer.” W hat do you think a- bout that? Does not help you be lieve in prayer as a human life? Why do we believe in prayer? Is it just be:anse great men of science have witnessed to its power? This helps, but it is not the convincing ing evidence in my mind. I be lieve in prayer and its power be cause of the witness of the Bible to the force and energy of prayer in the lives of saint and seer and the prophets and confessors and psal mist and martyrs The Bible, as no other book, pays tribute to the power of prayer. It portrays the lives of individuals who have lifted upon higher levels, transformed from badness to goodness, revolu tionized by the power and energy of divine grace. Another reason I believe in the creative- energy of prayer is that I have asked and have become the beneficiary. I have sought and have made spiri tual discoveries. I have knocked and doors to service have been opened. My limited and meager experience in prayer has given me an abiding and reassurance confid ence in its force and its spritual power. The same can be said of you also. You believe in the force of prayer because yon believe in the Bible and because you trust your own .experience. And of course there are other reasons as well. Since this is true let us pray and 'keep on praying. THE DAVTE RECORD MOCKSVTLLE. N. C. Who’s News This Week By Delo* Wheeler Lovelace I Consolidated Features.—WNU Release. "MEW YORK.—First there were Art NehTs own three World Series victories over the Yankees of the Ruthian years; no other pitcher W e’ve 3 T im es 3 ^ n f t e n V icto rtesC h a lked came anoth- V p to r th e N eh fs « £ £ £ matched, two sons and a daughter. Now,. in a drift of pungent smoke • over the Solomons, Art Junior racks up three Zeros. The friends who walked and talked with Old Art—he is barely 50—when he was about the best left-handed pitcher of the twenties, read of young Art’s three-timer and began to think back. Arthur Newcomb Nehf, Terre Haute-born and a graduate electrical engineer when John McGraw side tracked him into the Polo Grounds, has lived so long in Phoenix, Ariz., that he is a legendary shadow across the big league trails, but the friends made him a man alive there once more. They made him a man to be remembered for more than base ball, too. They spoke of him as D’Artagnan, Porthos and Aramis spoke of Athos, the thoughtful, the just. Art Junior did only what they expected of Art Senior’s son when the Japs bore in from five compass points. He was scared but, “I knocked off three of those monkeys,” and damaged the other two. Then, “They hit me and I couldn’t do much so I ran like h—I,” and erashed. Now, however, he is as fresh as new paint again. In some such whirl of action Art Senior took his first game from the Yanks. For eight innings the bats of Ruth and the cocky others bore in from all the compass points. Nehf had a 1-0 score, one out and one on in the ninth when Home-Run Baker hit a ball like a bullet. A good judge who saw Johnny Rawlings race for it off second base still calls the stop the greatest play of baseball. High-pockets Kelly and the marvel ous Frank Frisch, that day at third, finished the double play That was in 1921. Nehf won his other two in ’22 and ’23. TF Maj. Gen. Eugene Reybold hadn’t decided 16 years ago that he was on the wrong track the army corps of engineers would jump for A B it Cm U a, S ta rts A fre sh and E n g in eers P rofit He was a b ig g u n man then, ten years out of the coast artillery school at Fort Monroe; and come to think of it, pretty old to be mak ing a fresh start, 42. But young enough. Eleven years later, when the Mis sissippi went on a rampage and an army engineer was needed, he got the nod. The block and tackle he threw then has kept Old Man River quiet ever since. Now a thick-set, firm-mouthed eommander of 58, he directs all engineers through an encyclo pedia of special jobs that this global war has added to the traditional bridge-building, map- making, camouflage and construction. Reports from Africa and Britain, where he has just been, are that nothing of any great shakes is lagging. Here and there the material may be a little short, but in such a pinch the army engineers work won ders wiOi baling wire, shovels and the sergeant’s motherly coaxing. The general got his corps prepared for war a year ago when he streamlined it into nine divisional units; each overlapping those of the army’s own nine service commands.The honor lists already give Gen eral Reybold a Distinguished Service Medal. United States Army Nurses in North Africa TfvVERY month fresh signs arise that after peace there will al ways be a better England.

King From How Low l S eor^ taPf HerbertMorrison, Londonderry bom, Gal way schooled in part, to be minister of town and country planning He is to see that dream cities become visi ble where Nazi bombs have' now heaped rubble. The new minister already is home secretary, head of England’s police. Morrison’s father was a London bobby. In a dozen other posts over the years the home secretary and min ister of planning has become known as one of the government’s most able executives. A pleasanter boss than he is seldom to be found, but, de spite this, he gets the work out in jig time.7 And without a trace of nonsense! He fires backtalk- ing aids on the spot without bat ting an eyelid, and makes all his hands dig in. Yet never any harder than he digs in him self. He often can be found on the job long after the time clock has run down. As a younger man, his chunky figure, towsled hair made a fine tar get for conservative students at de bates in Cambridge university. The first XT. S. army nurses to arrive in North Africa are shown at work and at leisnre here. In pic ture at right three American nurses set off in a bicycle taxi to see Algiers, and create quite a stir among the natives. Left to right they are Lieuts. Doris Gressel, Herkimer, N.

German and Italian Prisoners Not Too Unhappy X/ I?, t I S i i t ^ The brighter side for enemy soldiers is to be taken as war prisoners, as is apparent in this picture. Shown on the left are smiling Italian prisoners who realize that the war and all its horrors are over for them. They are on their way to a prison camp for the duration. On the right, German prisoners from a U-boat don’t feem to be too unhappy over their plight. Perhaps they are thinking of food, shelter and comparative safety. Stacking the Deck on the Axis At an air operational station In England, an American ordnance crew stacks bombs in one of the scores of ammunition dumps at the station- stacking the deck on the Nazis, as it were. The big busters are taken from the truck by means of a small crane. In this working party are, left to right, Master Sergeant Warren E.

This action took place when Flying Fortresses accompanied by the deadly P-38s bombed Tunis in one of the biggest air raids on the Tunisian front. Twenty-year-old Doremus of Henrietta, Okla., hero of the op R a tio n , kept his guns going all the time. Tables Turned First it was the Chinese who was hold prisoner by the Jap.

The World Food Problem B y H erbert H oover CWNU Feature—Through special Btrangemeut with ColliertS W eekly) There are more Horsemen that follow modem war than at the time the Apocalypse was written. In modem total war, Famine and Pesti lence are .accompanied by four new recruits—whose names are Revolu tion, Unemployment, Suspicion and Hate. These additional destroyers make the job harder to manage. That there is and will be famine in this world of today, needs little demonstration. Already 148,000,000 people in the occupied democracies in Europe and Asia are short of food; millions of them are actually starv ing, and our Allies are obviously run ning on very short rations. The Nazis’ food supply is sufficient for their evils of today. They are working hordes of prisoners on the farms and robbing some of the oc cupied territories. But their inter nal production will grow worse as the war goes on and there is less to steal from the subjected peoples. In fact, the whole of Europe will continue to degenerate in domestic food supply. The reasons for that are simple enough: Eiurope in peacetime—and by Europe I mean Britain and all of Europe excluding Russia—has to import large amounts of food for human beings. That' is now cut off by the blockade, except to Britain, and some small amounts to the neutral countries. Decline in Field Crops. On top of this, under the pressure of total war, field crops decline year by year. Manpower and horsepow er are increasingly drained to the war; farm implements cannot be re placed; fertilizers are diverted to explosives; planting is less effective, and harvesting less perfect. Also, the animals in Europe are in con siderable degree dependent upon im ported feed. In consequence of the blockade, some part of the dairy and breeding herds must be slaughtered early in total war, and domestic feed for the remaining animals decreases because more fields must be turned to direct food for humans—and still> more of the flocks and herds must be slaughtered; In the last war, the principal food animals of Europe—cattle, hogs and sheep—decreased by over 70,000,000 head, and that is again taking place. The invaluable chicken vanishes, and fishing is greatly diminished. Thus the stream of animal products steadily decreases. To all this must be added the ravages of armies and scorched-earth policies. Nor will famine this time be limited to Europe, for these causes are also working in Asia and Russia. It is difficult for Americans to picture widespread hunger or star vation. We have not had such a thing in America. What Starvation Means.Nation-wide hunger and starvation mean grim suffering, incalculable grief over wilting children, physical degeneration, stunted growth, dis torted, embittered minds and death. Its lasting effect is one of degree and time. Adults can recuperate from months of undernourishment. Children can stand less. In fact, the undersized, rickets, agd the death rate among children are the sensi tive barometers of starvation. Not even during our Civil war was there a town or city where these effects reached one-tenth of what they are in certain cities of the occupied democracies at this moment. From all food shortages comes the danger of pestilence. People do not often die directly from starvation. Their resistance is weakened and they fall easy prey to contagions. Moreover, people consume their available fat supplies and have lit tle or none left for soap. Uncleanli ness invites such scourges as typhus —which is transmitted by body lice. There is another vital peril in this question. Unless these masses of people in scores of nations can have food and be protected from pesti lence, there can be no social or political or spiritual stability upon which peace can be built. We had a parallel experience with this problem after the' First World war. In that famine, America bore the major load of supplies, finance and administration. Ehccept for American food preparedness there would then have been the greatest sacrifice of human life in all history. That America succeeded in its task is evidenced by grateful statements of every government in Europe. No nation had ever undertaken such a mission before. We had to pioneer through the thickets and swamps of governmental, social, financial and economic problems, in cluding human nature in the raw. From that experience, we can make some estimate as to the need next time, the source of supplies, and the strategy and tactics necessary to de feat both famine and pestilence and to set millions upon the road back to strength and health.

F ish Is Flavorfnl One very direct and effective way of meeting the meat shortage is by serving fish in its many delectable ways. Few fami lies have been initiated into the many ways of preparation for fish, few know how succulent are their steaks when baked, or bow tart and crisp are fillets when fried. Bones have been removed 'from many types of fish so this need con cern the cook little. If they have not already been removed, this can be done easily since they are usually together.

Sprinkle with salt and pepper; dip first in dry coating—(crumbs or other if pre ferred), then in egg mixture and again in dry coating. Place in deep salad oil—(375 to 385 degrees)—or hot enough to brown a 1-inch cube of bread in 40 to 50 seconds.

Cook until mixture thickens, then pour it over the par tially baked whitefish. Return to oven for 20 minutes more or until fish flakes easily. Halibut is another good, substan tial dish. Mild in flavor, it needs a tart sauce to pick up its delicate flavors: Lynn Says: Sances for Fish: They're a m u st w ith fish because they make it m ost' delicious dish. You’ll lfice browned b u tte r with lem on ju ice and W orcestershire sauce. Or, ju st c re a m th e butter and season w ith lem on juice. Horseradish is popular with fish.

I Lesson for March 14 IN IH E UPPER BOOM LESSON TBXT-JOhn 13:13*20; 14:14. GOLDEN TEXT—Jesus saith unto him* I am the w ay; and'the trifthr»aud thflt HrtMio dbe cometh unto the Father, hut by me.— John 14:$. Calvary and crucifixion were just ahead. Jesus gathered His disciples for a time of communion and in struction as they spent their last evening together. On the morrow would come betrayal, but now they and their Lord were together in the upper room.But even here strife and dissen sion had apparently come in. There -was probably some difference of opinion as to who should have the place of honor. To teach them the virtue of humility Jesus gave them an example, after, which He contin ued with the precious counsel and prayer which are found in John 14 to 17.Our lesson presents three things which our Lord gave to His disciples and to us (see John 17:20). I. His Example—“Do as I Have Done” (13:12-20). The act ‘of Jesus in washing the disciples’ feet placed Him, their Lord and Teacher, on the level' of the- most menial servant. It was an as tonishing thing that He did, lower ing Himself below their level to serve them.His application of the object les son was equally startling. “Ye call me Teacher and Lord, and ye say well,” said He. Then as learners and servants He required of them the humility which would make them eager to do lowly service in His name.There are more than' enough folk who are willing to do the nice, pleas ant things in the church, where they will be given recognition and praise. All too scarce are those Christlike folk who will serve in the hidden places where darkness, suffering, disease and sin make the natural man recoil in distress or fear. n. His Assnrance-ilU I Go I Will Come Again” (14:1-3). Following His resurrection Jesus was to go to the Father. He wanted them to be prepared for that time by making lmown to them the fact of His coming again. In that day His own shall be received unto Him self to abide with Him forever.The second coming of Christ is not a strange doctrine held by little groups of people who are rid ing a theological hobby. It is one of the most blessed truths of Scrip ture. *nie hope of the Christian— yes, the only real hope of this dis ordered world—is the coming of Christ to reign. The New Testa ment is full of plain, and helpful teaching on this subject. While we await His coming, then, is there any encouragment for us as the burdens bear down and the way seems long? Yes, He says: “Let not your heart be troubled” (v. I). There is-little question that this passage has comforted more people than any other word in Scrip ture.Countless bewildered and broken souls in all lands and times have here found the steadying assurance of the one who has the power to give them rest and comfort. There is good foundation for their composure of heart in a troubled world. They believe in God, and in Christ, who is one with the Father. Here is real security—infinitely su perior, to aught the world can give. Then at the end of the road are the eternal dwelling places. What they are like is sufficiently revealed in the fact that they are in the Fa ther’s house. How shall we reach them? That is our last point. We have. III. His Guidance—“I Am the Way” (w . 4-6). To Christ’s declaration that they knew the way, Thomas responded with a request for a definite state ment. He wanted to be sure, and Qirist responded by reminding him that He, their Lord, is the “way, the truth, and the life;” Surely there could be no more complete provi sion for the guidance of the heavenly pilgrim. • •.Q irist is “the way.” It one takes the right road he will reach the right destination though he “cimnot at first see it clearly. Perhaps this is the commonest mistake of the Christian. He frets too much about what lies ahead . . . and not enough about taking the right road” (Lesson Commentary).He is “the truth.” H eisthe final and complete revelation of God, and is therefore the One who wiU lead all those who walk the way by faith into the fullness of the truth. To know Christ is to know God. He is “the life.” He is life, and He alone can give eternal life to man. There is none other to whom man may turn for life, but in- Christ it is found, and from Hiih it may be received by faith. We have only touched the briefest beginning of what took place on that remarkable evening in the upper room. It was a time of richest spir itual significance, of dark betrayal, but also of closest communion. We continue next Sunday.

We haven’t seen him for some time telling the boys goodbye, And now it seems that under the North Carolina laws, as interpeted by the Attorney Gene al, that a boy from 18 to 2 r years of age can bn beer but no wine. Tust which one of these intoxicants will do our boys the most harm and make them the drunkest, we can’t say. Nineteen meat dealers have been indicted for selling meat at prices above the ceiling Wonder how high the meat ceiling reaches? As one dealer in meats said a few days ago, it looks like most of us are liable to land in the penitentiary be fore the world returns to normal, We don’t give a whoon about the rationing of shoes. Under the ration plan auyone is allowed purchase three pairs of shoes a year. During our long life we have never been able to buy that many pairs of shoes in any one year, and never expect to be able to do so. Ten years ago President Roose velt promised to put every idle man to work.

Alexander, who represents Davie in the North Carolina legislature, wrote us last week as follows: “ You see the State has plenty of monev and favors are plentiful,- es pecially to those of the same faith. We only have 202 clerks, steno graphers, secretaries, pages, sear gents at-arms and laison officers to take care of the 170 members of the legislature Soyou see the leg islators are well supplied. W ith all this going on tbe necessity of re ducing taxes are completely out of tbe question. Wben managers of the ABCstores can spend jf 18,000 for expenses, I wonder what next?” Who ever heard of a Democratic body of law-makers economizing? Tbe boys in Raleigh seem to be fol. lowing the example of tbe New Dealers in Washington when it comes to spending money. A day of reckoning is coming and Jones will pav the freight. Miss Alice Holt, n spent T hurs day in Winston Salem shopping.

Its long neck Juts out of Rockville, Mass., into the wild Atlantic. Once, according to legend, this rocky promontory was the lookout for buccaneers, who hid their treasure in a deep fissure called the Pirate’s Mouth. Just the mention of that slippery shelf in the foamy sea makes my flesh creep! It began to creep the day I re ceived a queerly fat letter, the first -week of my visit at the inn. How would you feel to receive a missive from an unknown, containing forty old twenty-dollar bills? Postmark, Boston. Date blurred. Penmanship, sprawly, as if an at tempt had been made to disguise it. Spelling, excellent. Astonished, I read: , “The old church should go for a song at the auction. Please bid for one who doesn't wish to be known in the transaction. Sentimental rea sons. "In return, you may later use it for tearoom or lending library, rent free. “Please don’t tell a soul, but buy at any cost. If not enough, will re imburse. If too much, keep the dif ference and oblige "A FRIEND.” Nobody knew I was summering at the inn. As for the auction of the homely little church, scheduled for July 3, the following day, I’d planned to go just for fun. Every body at the Head would be there to take a whack at buying that deso late, long-unused place of worship, standing on the bluff. That odd letter, though I didn’t realize it at the time, was my first clue in the series of dreadful things which were to occur. Thrilled to death at the mystery, and speculat ing as to my unguessed correspond ent, I pinned the bills into a stock ing and tucked the missive itself un der the lining of my top bureau drawer. Maybe this vacation wasn’t going to be so dull, after all! I’d visited my Aunt Nella before, and found it deadly. But then she’d never had any murders to offer. I’ll say this for murder—it’s never dull. Aunt Nella runs the inn at Pi rate’s Head, the only one there. In a way it was a comedown for her to open her' lovely old colonial home to paying guests. For more than 150 years it had sheltered the Gerry family in decent privacy. They might have been comfortably off, ex cept for the failure of the Lane Bank. This crippled Uncle Wylie, Airnt Nella’s husband, worse than his rheumatism. Old Man Lane put a bullet through his head when his pet went into receivership, dragging down all his neighbors, but Aunt Nel- Ia went to making blueberry pies. That’s where I came in. She whee dled me into being hostess and gen eral factotum, greeting the tourists and answering the phone while her hands were in the dough, as she put it. "You’ll have a nice change,” she said. “The Head is always so quiet and peaceful.” My funds were minus X, and I’m without near relatives, my parents both having died in a plane crash. Even Aunt Nella was only a play aunt, who had been my mother’s dear friend. We had only a few guests the first of July. Nice people, all of them, apparently, but merely names to me: The Reverend Jonas De Witt, Miss Lily Kendall, Hugh Norcross and his sister, Bessie; Mr. Thaddeus Quincy and Mr. Potter. The house staff consisted of Aunt Nella, Uncle Wylie and myself. A town girl came in to wash dishes, but she lived out and had nothing to do with the things that happened. You can wager I didn’t mention my IetterfIo a soul. Visions of tea rooms danced in my head. I'm go-, ing to skip the auction here, except to say that I bid for the old church and got it finally for $300. I still had $500 of somebody's money! Along , with the squat old building came sturdy, hard benches for seat ing maybe 125 people, a few dilapi dated hymn books, and down in the basement the most wonderful sea chest you ever saw. Cedar. “There’s my hope chest,” I gloated. “A Ut ile polish and a lot of elbow grease —I” The thing was locked when I examined it after the sale. I was prying at it with a bobby pin when Uncle Wylie said Atmt Nella wanted me right away back at the inn. Not until evening did I escape. Then I discovered Mr. Quincy out on the porch sitting patiently in his wheelchair, as usual. I liked Thad-. deus Quincy, perhaps because he re fused to use his infirmity as a topic of conversation. Though about 66, wizened and always alone, still whenever he was included he was the life of the party. Just then he looked dejected enough, amusing himself by strumming on the piazza rails with the malacca cane he al ways had handy. “Want me to take you for a ride?” I asked. “My, the fog is creeping in.’’ "Would you, Judy? Just doton the ramp? Then I can manage for my self.” He called me Judy since the first day, and I -liked it, from him. To the others I was Miss Jason. “Bow’d you like to see the inside of a church?” I asked. I held my breath while we made the planks Uncle Wylie had put over the side steps of the porch for this wheel chair. “Saw all I wanted to this after noon at the auction,” he answered. “Yes. From the outside. Shout ed your bid through the door. Only made one bid. Why?” I asked. “Wanted you to get it cheap. Think I’d bid against you? What d’you want of that old eyesore?” “Wait till I get it fixed up. Tea and crumpets. My, it’s getting foggy! Left my handbag down in the basement. Taking you down while I get it. Guess how much money I have left?” I queried. He eluded my little trap, but ap peared grateful for the companion ship. “How should I know what scads you make at the inn? Tell me something about the Lane castle.” He pointed at the great stone man sion that loomed up ahead of us, beyond the inn but to the left of the church, known to Pirate Headers as the castle. Hideously ornate it was, by daylight, with too many tur rets. It had been vacant for years. “Not much to tell,” I replied. “Been closed since Mr. Lane com mitted suicide after his bank failed, three years ago. There was a nasty scandal hushed up, implicating son Roddy—Roddy, Jr.—whom you saw at the inn last night. He lives out West and never’s come back here IH i Si IilSYr' * ‘ C m&T From beneath the cover of the chest a dead white hand protruded. since. His mother went mad on ac count of his escapades, they say, and leaped into the ocean firom one of those towers. No wonder the old man shot himself.”“Nice family,” Mr. Quincy said. “Who’s that?” A figure scuttled ahead of us, across our path to the Lane driveway. Believing it to be one of our guests, I called good eve ning. There was no response. I had thought it the shadow of a wom an until Mr. Q. said: “So-o-o-ciable fellow.” He received the bump from the hubbled path uncomplain ingly. “Somebody’s in an awful hurry. Suppose it was Lane? No light in the castle.” “Oh, I doubt if it was Roddy. After the reception he got last night? Bet he left town. Didn’t show up for breakfast at the inn, as or dered.”We were passing the old fish house, from the cracks of whose sin gle window a feeble light shone. Mr. Quincy was all curiosity. Had I seen Qie old man who was staying there, he wanted to know. "No, and nobody else,” I said. "Only Uncle Wylie, and he at a dis tance, when Mr. Brown was fishing off the rocks earlier in the season. Sort of a recluse, I guess. Stone deaf. Uses an ear trumpet, funny old-fashioned kind, Uncle Wylie says.Not a star to guide us. It was all I could do to keep on the path, but finally we reached the church, which faced the ocean.“Got a match? I won’t be a min ute. Left my bag at the auction and have got to get a key out—” “That you, Judy Jason?” Up rose a behemoth of darkness. As we rec ognized the voice of Miss Kendall, one of our guests, She became con scious, of the wheel-chair. “Why, if ’t ain’t Mr. Quincy!” She gave the "C” an “S” sound, instead of the correct “Z.” “Been watchin’ the sun set. Must of dropped off. Lernrne push you back? Oh, I get it! Two’s comp’ny.” For once file kittenish Lily wasn’t going to butt in. As she moved away chuckling, I heard Mr. Quincy breathe, “Thank Heavens!” Poor Lily Kendall—cor pulent, gabby, good natured, lova ble, 40-odd, forever twisting her countless string of beads till they spilled all over the house, and heav ens—what a pest! She’d seen mighty little of a sunset in all that gather ing mist. Once the door was open, I struck one of the two matches Mr. Q. had given me and hurried down the aisle of the musty auditorium. Wrong word for this little meeting place, but never mind. The flame went out, and for a moment I stood hesi tant, listening to the ghostly lashing of the waves on the rocks. But I’d promised Bessie Norcross, our fus siest guest, a key for her door, hav ing swiped said key from Albion Potter, our artist boarder. His key fitted Bessie’s room, too, and he nev er bothered to close his door, let alone lock it. He’d probably never miss it. I’d stuck it in my hand bag, having intended to go to Rock ville and have a duplicate made. The bag must have been left in the basement near my new hope chest when Uncle Wylie called me away. The basement stairs, very narrow and steep, led from a door at the side of the front platform, the church being buOt back-to, in a way. I didn’t want any more complaints. I’d promised Bessie she’d have her key. I didn’t want to break my neck, either. I groped down a step or two, clinging to the stone walL Then I decided it was too precari ous. The other match should last until I snatched the bag and started back, so I struck it. The damp chill of that black little cellar penetrated my thin blue dress. Shivering, I hurried as best I could. There weren’t many steps. The church had literally been built on a rock, so the floor was uneven, one end having a patch of dirt floor. A strong breeze came from some where. I remembered the chest was against the wall abutting the sea. I could have reached it more easily by taking the path around the cliff to the tiny basement door, but I Imew that would be locked from the inside. I’d told Uncle Wylie to lock up when he’d summoned me. He’d said he had, and hung the en trance key where I’d just found it. He was absent-minded, but in an emergency could be relied upon. Yet holding up that tiny flame I could see that the basement door was open a crOTk, and was swinging wider— wider! Would the match last till I closed the door, locked it and found my bag? I measured the distance with my eye, approaching the while, and kicking at the door a s -I passed. From the darkness something twin kled at me. Was it a firefly?* An other step. I held the flickering match closer. It couldn’t' be! I was seeing things. A final spurt and the glow faded, burning my fin gers. Automatically I dropped the match. The pain brought action. "You musn’t faint! You mustn’t faint!” I kept telling myself. In utter darkness, with the moan of the sea and the creak of the door that wouldn’t stay closed unless locked, I staggered for the stairs. Nothing on earth , would have made me take the cliff path. It’s mighty lucky I didn’t, as it happened. Finally I found the stairs, missed a step and stumbled. Down, down, down, I rolled to the bottom. Every second I expected someone to reach out and grab me. I scrambled to my feet, more careful this time, but sobbing till I made the main floor. My skin prickled. The middle aisle—the door! I stumbled ahead, straining my eyes at the shadows. It wasn’t a firefly I’d seen by tfiat flickering match. From beneath the cover of the sea chest a dead white hand had protruded, and" o n /it'a huge square • cut diamond had winked at me. I’d admired it—was it only yesterday? Somebody was screaming terribly. Below a door banged. Blindly I bumped into a human being near the entrance. “Judy! Stop screaming! What’s the matter, child?” Thaddeus Quincy! In relief I grabbed at and nearly threw him. Not till afterward, in the safety of my own room; did I pause to won der how he’d ever managed to reach the spot where he stood unaided. “Quick!” I cried. “He’s after us!” “Who’s after who? What are you talking about?” I yanked at his arm, my one thought to get out of the church. “Now then,” he panted. “Who’s after us?” “The murderer. I - I heard it squeak.” “Are you crazy?” “The door, I mean. When he ran out of the cellar. After he killed Roddy Lane!” (TO B t CONTINVtDy Simplicity of Spring Styles Encourages Home Sewing Idea By CHERIE NICHOLAS • #1 X/lORE and more the home sew- A ing idea is taking on new in terest among patriotic women who are eager to do their part In the cause of wartime thrift and fabric conservation. To meet with government priority rulings even the smartest fashions are being designed with deliberate simplicity, so much so that whether one be expert at sewing or not it becomes an easy matter to stitch up a “basic” suit or dress that can be made to look as important as occasion demands with an artful use of accessories to give quick change personality. For instance, the two-piece “tor so” dress to the left in the above illustration can easily be made in a day or two. As to having “style” that will be outstanding in any group, there’s no question about it. It is one of those enduring fashion- right types that you will be able to wear with perfect confidence right through the spring on into the sum mer. Make it of jersey, rayon crepe or of a spun rayon weave. The ad dition of sparkling white lingerie touches or a boutonniere, or per haps a big bow at the throat with a corresponding bow at the hipline, will make it equal to any daytime occasion. Other costume strategy would be to wear with it a hat, glove and bag ensemble in striking contrast color. Another sound sewing investment for a smart spring turnout is a suit made of one of the crisp fabrics now so fashionable, such as faille or bengaline. These fabrics are ami able to weather changes and can be worn right through the summer. It is a suit of this type we are showing centered in the group. This model conforms in silhouette and detail to the WPB fabric-saving rule. No tice this “new” brief jacket (short er length smartest for spring) with its cut-away lines and the stem-slim skirt, the hemline of which follows the cut-away technique of the jack et, clipping at the back to provide grace m walking. This is one of those dependable suits that provide a perfect foil for beguiling feminine accents, whether your choice be a crisply tailored bow at the throat or a dramatic dash of frothy white frills. If you want to look casual and pleasantly feminine in your off-duty hours, the suit with plaid jacket and monotone skirt shown in the above picture (left) will do just that for you. It is surprising, so fabric sales people declare, how many ambitious women show a willingness and ea; gemess to undertake making a suit as well as their daytime frocks. They realize that the fashionable jacket and skirt suits of soft woole or crepes are now being made with a soft styling that does not always require expert tailoring. This model is one of those much-to-be-desired, many purpose suits that go about town very unostentatiously, without dramatic accessories, during the busy hours of the day. Comes “date” time, the costume stages glamour with a jabot that spreads its sheer beauty over the jacket front, or a handknit vestee with a band of the same handknit on the hat, together with gloves cuffed with matching handknit, or a bib necklace of plastic flowers that repeat the pastel tones in the plaid. Not even a beginner need resist the “make your own” urge which is sweeping the country, now that sewing centers are being established in countless communities where you will be instructed to use modern sewing machine gadgets that do any thing you want them to do in the way of shirring, fagotting, tucking and endless other couturier “tricks of the trade.” You can also add plenty of drama to any suit by con sulting your sewing center about the new fabric-covered monogrammed buttons and the belt and buckle service they render. And if you are a busy wartime worker you’ll be want ing a thermoplastic dress form that’s an exact twin of your figure —it can be molded for you at your local sewing center in only 30 min utes.Released by Western Newspaper Union. Glazed Percale No mktter how cold the winter, spring always arrives in time with its flowers. That reminder is car ried in the floral design so color fully patterned on these glazed per cale pajamas and the brunch coat worn over them. The coat is quilted and flared, while the pajama trou sers have tapered legs, as most of the newer types have. The oriental suggestion carried in this pictur esque house costume is very evident. Use Care in Buying Your Spring Coat The casual practical coat that looks as though it will stand up un der the test of being worn more than one season is the kind that is selling best. Since practicality is the first consideration, and since most every woman is wearing a suit, the coat that is most in de mand is the boxy type that easily slips over a suit. Chesterfields in various types lead in the mode. For the most part, the trend is :' toward quality apparel, and the I preference among women is the I conservative coat made of dependa- I ble all wool weave. More navy coats are selling than usual, and these are I I in youthful straight lines, as a rule.However, there are some dressier : models that are making appeal to ! well dressed women that are de- I tailed with navy faille revers, with I graceful lines stressed in semi-fit ted versions. ! j So as to inject a note of cheer into I the present scene many coats are I : frankly colorful. The pastels are in I demand, also powder blue, navy, red and lilac shades are good. TIiere is a wide demand for white'among the young set. Both coats and suits are wanted in pastel tweeds and Shetland wools, also wool twills and all wool fleeces. Black Lace The latest in “nighties” are of crepe in such colors as maize, blue, white or tea-rose, these trimmed with narrow black lace edgings. Lace-trimmed black sheer gowns art also selling.

MARCH 10, 1943 A tU jM iia Augusta Travers—you know, tha one who runs the little hat shop down on Main Street—she’s always been dead set against gambling in any form. Never will forget when I was a kid and she found little Hammy, her youngest nephew, playing mar bles for keeps out back of the shop. Took it on herself to give him a whaling and point out the evils of gam bling. She’s a strict woman, Augusta, real strict. Good as gold, of course. But mighty set against the lighter things of life.Well, so you could have knocked us all over with a feather when Au gusta started her gam bling cam paign for W ar Bonds and h \Stamps, right out in the window of her shop. First she got hold of the photographs of every boy here in town who’s joined up, and pasted them on a big board in the window, with little American flags at the corners. Half the town was down there watching her do it. She left the middle empty. Then she brought out a placard she’d had printed up and put it in the middle, and this is what it said: “These are the Local Boys who have enlisted in America’s War—They are betting that you are buying War Bonds and Stamps—Hitler and the Japs are betting you aren’t—Place your bets in side.”My wife couldn’t wait to get herself down there and inside Augusta’s shop to see what in the wide world had happened to her, turning right around about gambling like that. You know my wife. She kind of likes to talk. She went right up to Augusta and said, “Augusta Travers, seems like something’s come over you. Why, I never thought I’d see you run ning a gambling campaign in your own shop.”Mean to tell me it’s a gamble whether this country buys enough bonds to win this war?” Augusta asked.I forgot to say. Wasn’t just a hat my wife brought home. Was a hat and a $25 bond.(Story from an actual report in the files of the Treasury Department.)Remember: It takes both—taxes and War Bonds (and more War Bonds)—to run the War and combat inflation!

Treasury Deportment J e o t m a Leonora straightened the objects on her desk with great care. She had put her desk at the end of her room facing the door so that when her mother came in she would have to cross the whole room under Leo nora’s stern executive eye to get to her. From movies and pictures in the newspapers Leonora had gotten a good idea of how the desk of a busy woman of affairs should look. With an important scowl, Leonora picked up a sheet of paper. Now she was two people—herself, the busy woman, and her own stenographer. “Miss Simpkins, take a letter to the Secretary of the Treasury, will you?” she murmured under her breath. “Yes, immediately ,” she m ur m ured back at herself.Leonora cleared her throat and looked at the ceil ing for in sp iration.

Each time we have reached the top and stood in the presence of the great massive Lincoln statute we always experi enced a deeper reverence stirring within our hearts, and we have no ticed that men instinctively uncov er as they read and reread the se cond inaugural address. Lincoln’s words, uttered seventy- eight years ago, should be tbe ex pression today of t h e noblest thought of the United Nations as they contemplate a future peace. Here is what be said on March 4 , 1865: “ W ith malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right', as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and and for bis widow and his orphan —to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace a- taong ourselves, and with all na tions. One hundred a n d tbirty.four years ago, Abraham Lincoln was born, “ reviled and lampooned over two continents, in four years he la canonized by mankind. W ithout origin, without training, without a worldly advantage, child of a poor and shiftless emigrant, he . makes his wav out of the Wilderness to fix for all time tbe eyes of the world as a leader of the people, libera tor of the slave, deliverer of his country, and in another turn of the kaleidoscope, is numbered with martyrs and saints in glory ever lasting.—Ex. ~ Renew your subscription today and get a 1943 Alma nac free.

There isn’t another, probably, be tween the Halls of Montezuma and the shores of Tripoli; a fact doubt less pleasing to the marines as the major scouts the country seeking 19,000 recruits for her command. A year or so after her first les son the major had a commercial license, too, and a little time back the 126th squadron, army air forces, made her honorary pilot. She is also the only woman on New Jer sey’s defense council’s committee on aviation. Major Streeter’s home is at Morristown, N. J. Before the war there were few town schemes and stratagems in vrtiich she didn’t have a hand. She belongs to six dnbs, to Uie Jimior League and to the New Hampshire Society of Colonial Barnes. When the war began she expanded her orbit to in clude most of the doings at Camp Dix nearby. Now to Dix she adds the marine corps. Her children, happily, are all old enough to go their own gait . . . daughter Lillian and sons Frank and Henry, who are ensigns, and Thomas W. Jr., who is in the army reserve.

Land is needed for shipyards, housing and all the army’s great growing pains. When the boys come marching home the government will own 20,900,000 acres, five times as many as there are in the state of Maine. In a venture so vast, Uncle Sam could be rooked to a fare-ye-well. U he isn’t, Mr. Lit- tell will have earned a D.S.C. Forty-four now, he joined the at torney general’s staff in 1939. Ear lier Be had practiced law in Seattle after studying at Wabash college, Oxford, Harvard and Washington university. At Oxford he was a Rhodes scholar. He was bom at Indianapolis, Ind., and has been married 12 years. Two children. . Already his canny double-check on real estate deals has saved the price of a few Flying Fortresses, maybe of a battleship. He cut one $195,000 fee in half, cut a couple of com missions from 6% per cent to 3% per cent, persuaded one land agent to take a flat $50 fee on each of 600 deals although original claims had run as high as $820. — ♦ — TJUDGET DIRECTOR Harold Dew- ey Smith will compile the record of the administrative history of the war; and he was handpicked by a ToCompileRecord Of Administrative dent on the H istoryoftheW ar !fy'so of *D em ocrat ic Supreme court justice. Neverthe less Republicans borrow trouble if they wonder whether the record will be on the level. Fifty years from now undoubtedly anybody will be able to travel the budget director’s miles of memos and learn the truth about everybody’s sins. Mr. Smith loves documents and data too well to finagle them even for his party. When Associate Justice Frank Murphy sold President Roose velt on Mr. Smith he was bndget director of Michigan. That was three years back. He had got to Michigan’s state capitol after righting the problems of cities in both MicMgan and Kansas. He was bora in Kansas, 45 years ago. He got a degree in engi neering from the University of Kansas. His first good job was in Detroit, after he finished a navy enlistment in the first World war and had mar ried. The states of Kansas and Michigan kept him busy all his life until he went to Washington, D. C. With his wife and three daugh ters he lives now in Arlington, Va., deliberate, conscientious, and neat, his sober, triangular face constant ly concerned with budgetary esti mates. He has'estimated that the war is costing us more than a bil lion a week, and that one person in every 102 is on the federal pay roll. 6Black Gold’ for Atlantic Seaboard Begins to Flow 'V fS * ? ■M Tank cars at Norris City, HI., the temporary mid-western terminus of the Texas-to-Illlnois pipeline, are loaded (left) for the first shipment of oil to the Atlantic seaboard.

Constitution Hidden CWNU Feature—^Tbroitgh special arrangement with Coltiefa Weekly) One of the great lessons we Amer icans will have to learn if we ever hope to build a better foundation for peace is that human beings the world over have to be approached as human beings and not as mem bers of a race or as adherents of a certain religion—but just as people whom you may like or dislike ac cording to their individual charac teristics. I may be a Chinese, an Arab, a Jew, an Indian, a Negro, a German, a Frenchman, or a Britisher—still I must be evaluated, if I am to be fairly judged, on the basis of being just a human being. We have never done this in the world before—and we have never had lPeace in the world thus far. FYeedom From Fear. One of our four freedoms states that we shall have “freedom from fear.” Freedom from fear, of course, means that the world over, people will be protected from ag gression, people will be protected from persecution because of their race or their religion. People will be safeguarded from hunger and want, too, by an econ omy which takes into consideration the basic needs of all the people, the world over. U that is going to become a reali ty, then the first thing we have to do is to learn to meet our fellow human beings, recognizing the fact that we will not love all of them, but we will love some, and we must get on with all, Tegardless of dif ference of race or creed. Those who are evil will have to be restrained. We do that in our own countries everywhere. The Chinese philosopher, Lin Yu- tang, says in substance, in a recent article, that our moral attitudes the world over are the important fac tors, not what we know or what we have, but our ability to choose be tween right and wrong. This may be the basis on which we shall have to develop some of our .future co operation. Our boys in Africa and in the Solo mon Islands deal with natives who haven’t yet had a chance to develop a very high type of civilization. These boys are going a step beyond their first contacts in Great Britain and Australia, and wide differences will develop, but the beginning of the development is in Great Britain. If we can build on the good will which Great Britain has toward us at the moment (largely brought about because, in the trials through which the British have gone, the generosity of the American people has made them grateful) we will be beginning a new era in the world. Generous, Not Sacrificial. Over here, it is hard to under stand just what certain things have meant to Great Britain, because while we have given money which has sent mobile canteens, ambu lances, medical supplies, clothing, food, ,etc., in great quantities to Great Britain, we were only being generous, not sacrificial. We have sent old clothes, but they were things we could do without. However, the people who received them over there could not do with out them. A woman In a London crowd, for instance, one day plucked at my sleeve and said, “My little girl would have been cold if it had not been for the warm clothes the children of America sent us.” The British people show their gratitude by wanting to do things for our American soldiers. They realize that our coming into the war is a great help to their own boys who have, fought in all parts of the world for the past three years. But. their gratitude goes deeper than that: it touches; the lives of everyone in that group of islands. It calls out a. traditional feeling which I think is ingrained in the people of the United States and m the people of Great Britain—if- we have received something, we want to make a return, at least in good will. This is a basis on which I believe we can readily and permanently build. Well, to be really effective, the United Nations will have to build among the people of all the nations an understanding such as is now growing between the people of Great Britain and the people of the United States. It will be slow, but the build ing of a peaceful world is not something to be accomplished by the writing of a treaty. It takes time to work out the rela tionships of men and women, but if we hope for peace, it must be done. • And I think a good beginning has been made. The original copies of our Con stitution and our Declaration of Independence have been removed from Washington to a secret vault where they are safe from bombs, fire, water, gas and enemy looters. Furthermore, their hiding place is known oiily to the Librarian of Congress and the Archivist of the United States. 36 FOR 2CK 100 FOR 35?

He Prayefl for AU Believers (w . 18-26).Christians are not simply the avowed adherents to a particular form of belief, they are “sent” ones. As the Father sent IGm into the world, “even so send I them into the world,” said Christ. Christ has gone to be with the Father^ but He has left those who believe in Him as His witnesses, His representatives. For this they need holiness. He prayed: 1. For Their Consecration (w . 18, 19).For their sakes He consecrated Himself. Surely if He needed it, we do far more. It is not only His will for us, but His prayer. How wonderfully that prayer was answered we see as we look back over the intervening 19 centuries, from His immediate disciples on through the martyrs, the missionary pioneers of all ages, the faithful preachers and teachers of the gospel, yes and “liv ers” of the gospel too. He knew, He prayed, God answered. Are you in that blessed host of consecrated believers? 2. For Their Unity and Glory (w . 20-26). There is a refreshing simplicity about the Christian faith which is utterly different from all the com plications which man has prepared and superimposed upon it. Essen tially it is a matter of God having sent His Son into the world to be the Redeemer of m et. He and the Fa ther are one, He and His followers are one, and so we are all one. We who today believe are included (read w . 20-23).This is an inward unity of the Spirit, not an outward union of or ganizations. The answer to our dif ficulty is not the dissolution of de nominations (although there do. seem to be far too many subdivi sions, too), but the uniting of all groups in a oneness of love and devo tion to Christ, and a united emphasis on the gospel.There is something more here. This unity puts Christ’s followers into the place where His glory may be revealed in and upon them. It. is His prayer that w e; should behold in our Saviour the glory which God had given Him because He loved Him before the foundation of the world. CAN YOU EAT CElERY?

For months, in the fact. Of shortages and lack of experienced help, he's been trying to carry o n ... trying to give you the kind of service you’ve always ex pected of him. Now he has a brand new problem—point rationing. He has to collect die stamps from you as well as die cash. It’s a burden for him—tore—and for you. Buthe knows and you know that it’s got to be done. K ifte ^ n jjW n ra j of making sure that everybody gets a fair share. That’s our way of doing things. So it’s his job—and your job—everybody’s job—to make point rationing work... as smoothly, as efficiently as possible, Traffic jams in food stores aren’t, going to help anybody. ☆ ☆ ☆ Now there are a number of ways In which yon can give this grocer of yours a real hand... in a good, neighborly Americas way. Tou can shop early in the day, early in the week. Tou can shop as infrequently as possible—once it. week only, if you can manage. Toa can always make sure to have a shopping list, and to liave your "point values” added up before you go to the store. I And yon can help yourself as well as your grocer by using the plentiful, non. rationed food* as much as you can, instead of the search rationed foods. Foods such as cereal^ fresh fruits and vegetables, home- cooked soups, home^canned fruits and vege tables are not rationed and they deserve an important place in your wartime meals. ☆ ☆ ☆ '' . Because cereals are one of these abundant tm- rationed foods, we here at the Kellogg factory in Battle Creek have been doing everything we possibly can to meet the unprecedented de mand for our products. We’re sending millions upon millions of packages of crisp KelIoeg Cereals to the boys in our armed forces. We’re packing K-ration for troops in die front line of fighting. Even our machine shop is mak ing gun parts! And we’re short ofhelp, too.

Dear ly beloved, it is a polite way of tel ling you that your subscription has expired, and that we want you to bring, send or mail us a frog skin. In this day of paper and labor shor tage. high prices and rationing of many articles, we are forced to col Iect all subscriptions We are try. Ing to do what Uncle 8 am asks us to do. We want to keep but of ' jail, and to eat at least twice every day. > We have kept the price c f onr Daper down to fit.oo per year, despite the fact that the price of supplies and equipment have in creased from 50 to too per cent. If you see an X mark on yocr paper, please let us hear from you. We may have to increase the price of our paper if the war continues There is always something to be thankful for—the North Carolina legislature has adjourned. The Red Cross drive is on this week in Eaviecounty. Everym an, woman and child should give to the extent of their ability. This is in deed a worthy cause. The 4 0 days of ground hog weather is over, and from now on yo i can blame the weather on the New Deal, the Republican party or the recent North Carolina legisla ture. As soon as all the American housewives bought n e w bread knives or had the old ones sharpen ed up, the boss who are running the country, took the ban off bread slicing. Wonderful world Thirty-one business and profes sional men in Mocksville were pa triotic enough to sponsor Red Cross advertising which appeared in Tbe Record for the past two weeks. This was a worthy cause, tnnd only a few refused to assist in this work. Our thanks are due all those who assisted in putting this matter be fore the people. The Record has donated hundreds oi dollars worth of space to the Government during the past 15 months, and will con tinue to do so until the war is won. It takes a united people to win a war, and we must all work together to accomplish this end. Fork News Notes.

Dear Mr. Strond:—Just a few lines to let yon know I receive Tbe Record bere in New Guinea and tba.t I do enjoy reading it, especi ally the news about town and the letters of soldiers. I have to langb when they say way done in Alaba ma and Louisiana. That’s next door to me, when I think of being here. One thing that hurts a lot is to read of fellows that I know should be in tbe army that are stili at home having a big time. Fifteen months ago todav I was home for tbe last time. I left, not knowing it tho. Sincetben I have been half way around the world; have seen lots of the states, too much of tbe Pacific, quite a bit of Australia, and too much of the Pa cific, quite a bit of Australia, and too much of New Guine . I don’t think yon have received any let ters from Australia or Guinea, so I am going to give you a brief de scription of what they are like. Australia has some very beautiful towns but I was not fortunate e- nough to visit but a few. TrafiSc moves on the left side of tbe street. As you watch traffic move along, you see lots of bright, shiny ’24 Chevrolets or even older; lots of Whippets, verv few A model Fords, and once in a while a ’40 or '41 Chevrolet will go bv. There are more bicycles than cars. I saw a woman about 75 years old, riding a three wheel cycle Most of this I saw in one town. Tbiscountry has pounds, shillings and pence instead of dollars and cents. Stores for weight use the word stone, which equals 14 pounds. There are some pretty girls and nice people. New Guinea Is uncivilized, verv hot and lots of mosquitoes. Haven’t seen a woman for months. Natives are just like the ones you see in the movies. No entertainment at all. AU we look forward to is mail and coming home. Money Is no good. You who think we’re having a pic nic are mistaken. We’d be glad to change places with yon. I was se parated from all the Davie boys in November, 1941. Over 12 months went by withou seeing anyone from home Yon can imagine how tick, eled I was when I came face to face with a Davie boy here in this jun gle. Tbe hoy was Graham Dnr ham, from below Mocksville. I saw him several times, but now we’re not near each other. Hope to see him again In Mocksville.v TboSe little slant eyed fellows are smart boys; don’t let anyone tell vou thry aren’t, but we Americans and Australians are just as smart, and we are doing a good job over here. I hope how soon we can all be back home again. That will He a big dav when I walk down the streets of Mocksville again. I hope there won’t- be any of the Davie fellows missing. PVT. LEO JONES. Tobacco Yield The average yield per acre of flue- cured tobacco in North Carolina last year was 1,971 pounds, EIG. Moss of the Statedepartm ent of Agriculture, says.

Sbs sus pects, In turn, each of tbe guests a t the Inn where she Is staying. They are the Reverend Jonas DeWittl Lily KendaUf Thaddeus Qoin**, Albion Potterv Hagb Noreross and his sister, Bessie. Ottier possibilities are Annt Nella and Cnde Wylie, owners of the inn. But tbe sender c( the letter Is still unknown when Jady Wds for tbe church and gets it. Thai p]ght she finds a hand protruding from an old sea chest. By a ring she recog* nizes it as Roddy Lane’s. Now continue with Judy’s story. Year^biLn d-Tp^c CHAPTER n We headed toward the inn, and fell the while Mr. Quincy was try ing to get a coherent story out of me. “Are you sure the hand was Rod dy Lane’s?” "Positively. Who else wears such a big square diamond? Noticed it particularly yesterday. The sun made it wink just as it did tonight.” “He had it coming to him!” You’d have thought Roddy was Public En emy No. I from Mr. Q.’s tone. We were abreast of the old fish- shed, where the light still gleamed dimly. I stopped, panting. “He wouldn’t have a telephone, would he, Judy?” His cane pointed toward Brown’s. “Doubt it. Deaf the way he is. We’d better keep on to the inn.” “Well, take it easy. Rest a bit,” Mr. Q. said. “Or maybe you’d bet ter run along alone. Leave me here.” "Nothing doing!” I began to push again. Later I was to wish we’d stopped to break the news to Old Man Brown. But now we struggled on without speaking, though Mr. Quincy reiterated, “Lane certainly had it coming to him.” And I knew we were both thinking of the same thing—the scene at the inn the eve ning before. In a flash I could see our guests seated at the tabl ;s. I was help ing our little high schooler serve, and wondering which, if one of them, had sent me the $800. The Reverend Jonas De Witt de manded clams. Once he’d been a ■ preacher in New York who’d “sup plied” the Rockville Center Church in Summer and boomed at his help less parishioners like the ninth wave in a storm at sea. He knew his re ligious creed, according to Uncle •Wylie, and his golf. Indeed, before making arrangements at the inn he’d inquired minutely about a golf course, asking, as I now recalled, if there wasn’t a short cut to it through the Lane estate. Uncle Wylie had carried in his golf clubs. “ ’S a won der the Reverend would come way over here, anyway. Sh’d think he’d hate the sight of the Lane place. Old Man Lane skinned him worse’n us. Danged if I don’t take that boundary ;line to court.” Aunt Nella had sputtered back: "Don’t get started on the Lanes. Fifteen years’ feud over a few meas ly inches! Land sakes—dead, ain’t he? And his good-for-nothin’ son out West. So, get to shuckin’ those peas.” And now Roddy was dead, too! Funny how little things come back to you in the aftermath of terror. Lily Kendall sat beside Mr. Albion Potter, our painter, whose key I’d snitched for Bessie Norcross. Self- effacing, untidy, he was a negative sort of person, with a disconcert ing way of staring you down. More likely it was Hugh Norcross, pr the Reverend Mr. De Witt, or even Mr. Quincy. Hugh rather in terested me, when he could escape his clinging vine of a sister. Here was an eligible male, and did she know it! Bessie, as she repeatedly told the world, had already endured ' one nervous breakdown and ap peared hell-bent to enjoy another. She and her brother were in their later twenties and had summered at the Head before. Evidently, from snatches of conversation I diught, she loathed the place. Yet she’d come again. Why? “—knew I was trying to forget!” I heard her ex claim once, and then Hugh’s gentle expostulation: “—five years—prove to yourself—hurt any more—out West—ever meet him face to face —!” Now, as it came back to me, I wondered. Out West? Were they speaking of Roddy Lane? Mr. Quincy also sat at the big table, so Lily had her pick of the three men. Hugh and Bessie Nor cross occupied a table by them selves. They all suffered over Lily’s chief topic of conversation — her niece, Gloria Lovelace, who was ris ing in pictures in Hollywood. Well, there they all sat, that mem orable evening before, discussing the auction to take place the next dav. I listened for dear life to their com- . ments to get a line on my unknown donator. “The old dump would make a swell bonfire for the Fourth,” Hugh Norcross said. “Lovely place to watch sunsets”—this from Lily Kendall. “Maybe I’ll bid. Good spot to think in,” Mr. Quincy grinned. “Me, I’m going to paint it,” Albion Potter exclaimed. But it was the minister, trying to look dignified and eat a special order of steamed clams at the same time, who gave me pause withr “Preached there" one Summer, years ago. Rather fancy the old church myself. Sentimental reasons.1’ Sentimental reasons! The very I words in my mysterious appeM. I filled his glass till it overflowed as I stared at him. “Sorry, folks.” I jumped a mile as a newcomer spoke from the door. “Couldn’t help overhearing. I hap pen to want the old landmark. Bet- t«r plan on some lively bidding.” Roddy Lane! Same brown suit wiih tie to match, same bachelor button he affected for his button hole, same swagger, same danger ous dark eyes, but with a new square-cut diamond flashing from his little finger. Seven years since I’d I M n him, yet he’d not changed. I was 14 at the time, and he’d given me my first kiss at a party. Not a nice kiss. I’d slapped his face in stinctively. But now I was hostess and he was a guest, so I stepped forward. Maybe it was my copper- colored hair,' but he knew me, too. “Well, if it isn’t little Judy Jason.” His eye ran over me. “My, you’ve grown into a beautiful woman! Feed me till after the auction?” I took his order, wondering was he the one. A commotion was taking place at the main table. Mr. Quincy began muttering something about the bad odor and working his wheels, Hugh sprang to help him, narrowly miss ing Lane’s toes.- Bessie left the ta ble, head high. Jonas De Witt’s chair scraped. “Too thick for me!” The guests’ high words floated back from the piazza down the emp- r In the doorway stood Roddy Lane. ty hall. Even in the dining room you could hear things like: “Decent folks,” “dirty dog,” “show his face” and “remember my cloth!” This was too good to miss. Lily waddled out, with me just ahead of her, to try to stem the line of talk or change it. After all, Rodney Lane was a guest. But he jumped up and crept beside me, signaling for silence. It was then I had a good look at his well-kept hand and the marvelous diamond ring. Albion Potter was at the far end of the piazza, sketching the clouds in a little book he always carried. The rest were watching the minister practice a golf stroke on the lawn. “Here’s what I’d like to do to that bird!” De Witt ground his heel into Aunt Nella’s velve.ty grass and sent a golf ball spang through a window in the Lane garage. At the tinkling of glass beyond our plum tree Roddy sauntered down the steps. “Good shot, Smith. Haven’t lost your stroke,” he said crisply. “Did they have golf at State’s Prison?” We all stood speechless, staring at Lane, who kept on toward the castle on the bluff, at the left of the old church. Oddly enough, Bessie Nor cross found her tongue first. “How right you were, dear. What an—an escape!” If Roddy recognized her shrill voice he did not turn his head. De Witt stood like a paralyzed rabbit. I tried to cover the breach. “Don’t mind him, Mr. De Witt. Pi rate Headers pay no attention to the Lanes. He was dreadfully rude, but he mistook you for someone else, of course.” “Of course,” echoed Mr. Q. with a tense, straineB look. Lily twisted, her blue beads until they burst into a shower of forget- me-nots. “What’s he done? Seems like a perfec’ gen’lemun to me. That Lane feller, I mean.” “Done? What hasn’t he done? He ought to be wiped off the face of the earth, and I’d like to be the one—”I cut Hugh short: “You’d like to be the one to help me, right now. Start something,- can’t you? Quoits or—”“How about tar and feathers?” Hugh began picking up beads and handing them to Lily, who let them slip through her fat fingers. Well, -there it • was—the whole scene in a flash, as I bumped poor Mr. Qumcy up the long slope to the inn. I also recalled'that Roddy had not shown up for breakfast, nor come to the auction, despite the fact I’d heard him threaten to bid lively. Maybe that was camouflage. Maybe he’d sent me the forty twen ty-dollar bills to bid for him. Anl now that he was dead I’d never, know why. Aunt Nella let off an indignant mouthful before I could get my breath at the foot of the steps. We had, it eventuated, acquired a new “mealer.” He’d come in a trailer and asked permission to park on the bluff, over beyond the Lane castle, where outlands cut in at an angle. He might stay a week, or a month, or the summer. Anyway Aimt Nel- Ia was furious, because she’d* been mixing bread and had to receive him. He was in the parlor, now reading a book. I’d better go right in and make terms, she said. She was going straight to bed. Mr. Quincy nodded. “Go ahead, Judy. Sign him on the dotted line, and then get him to help me up the ramp.” “Before—?” “Before. Might not, otherwise.” “Might not what?” Aunt Nella queried, but trotted back to the kitchen, while I entered our front parlor, blinking into the bright light. “Ooooooooooh!” I let out a little scream. “Nnnnnot yyyyyou!” Call it nerves, but the man had on a brown suit. His hair and eyes were very dark. Even his size was about the same. No wonder I thought I’d seen a ghost. “Why not I? I’m Victor Quade. Do I know you?” He rose, and I saw at once that not only was his voice different, being quietly con trolled, while Roddy bit off his words; but he was younger. His eyes, while just as compelling as Lane’s, invited confidence; while Roddy’s fascinated. “You seem terribly upset,” Mr. Quade said. “Sit down, why don’t you? Can I get you something? A glass of water?” “No, thanks.” I slumped into a chair and heard a hysterical giggle coming out of me that sounded like Lily Kendall. “You—you wish to take your meals at the inn? Our rates—oh, I can’t, Mr. Quade. You see, there’s just been a—a murder here. You wouldn’t want to get mixed up with it. If you’ll help me push a wheelchair up the ramp I’ll call the police.” “A murder?” he shot at me. “Did you say—murder?” As he bent over my chair a chill crept up my spine. Who was this person? How long had he been here? Could it have been he Mr. Quincy and I had heard scuttling over near the Lanes? What was he doing at Pirate’s Head, anyway? Could he be the killer? Victor Quade read the questioning fear in my eyes. “Nothing could drive me away now,” he said quiet ly. “You needn’t be afraid. I didn’t do it—whatever it is. I’m trying ta write stories. And this—don’t > you see? It lets me in at the beginning of a mystery. Where’s the phone? I’ll call the police.” I felt a little reassured and re minded him of Mr. Quincy; but he said never mind Mr. Quincy. Lead him to the phone. It was in my cubicle of an office, back of the sit ting room which had been converted into a bedroom for our invalid. We went in and Victor Quade, firing questions at me right and left, lifted the receiver. “H’lo? H’lo?” Then, jiggling the hook, “Emergency! Police!” He tried several times, but got no an swer. “I might have known. We’ll find the wire’s been cut.” He began investigating, while I wondered how he knew unless he’d cut it himself. “Outside, probably,” he added. -1 could hear poor Thaddeus Quin cy calling my name. “Please help me with the wheel chair,” I said. “There doesn’t seem to. be anybody else around.” We got Mr. Quincy into the house and held a consultation. Both men, I noticed, eyed the other suspicious ly. Victor Quade raced out again. "Follow him, Judyl Don’t let him get away. How do we know— ?” I raced out, too. Victor was com ing back. “Just as I thought. Cut on the outside, not far from where you were, Mr. Quincy.” “I don’t like your implication, sir,” Mr. Quincy punctuated his re mark with his cane. Could he have- cut the wires? What with? I was re membering I’d bumped into him in the aisle of the church, so he could manage without his chair. “Never mind the implication. If you cut them, the police will soon find out. The point is, they’ve got to be notified. How? Doesn’t seem to be anyone here. Phone’s useless. My car’s in a garage in Rockville. I was-towed in—my trailer, I mean —by the garage people, who parked me on the bluff and drove -back to town. Is there another car I could borrow?” There wasn’t. Everybody’d gone to town, apparently; even'Unde Wy lie. He’d ridden in Albion’ Potter’s car, since his own had its innards dismantled out in the barn. Mr. Quincy looked relieved. I tapped on all the bedroom doors but evidently nobody was in. Aunt Nella was nearly asleep. She wai working terribly hard to make end* meet, the season having only begun. I decided not to tell her the dread ful news, but to let Uncle Wylie dt it. Where was he, I asked. -.■ j CtO BE CONTINUED) 0 N ot M eat Loaf . . . B nt Pea-Potato Loaf! (See Recipes Below) M enu M agic New life for your meals—without meat. That’s a problem which con cerns us more day after day. A balanced diet dic tates we must, have a serving or more of meat or fish or beans or peas—one of those will fill our pro tein need—and give us energy, build and repair our tissues. To homemakers who for years have used generous quantities of meat—this use of other protein foods may be a new, but a delightful les son in cookery. Vegetable dinners, please — and make attractive platters. Consider the excellent possibilities of strips of green beans, carrots, clusters of white cauliflower and diced beets in orange sauce—topped off in the cen ter with a poached egg on toast. Or, here is a loaf made of iron- supplying potatoes and protein-sup plying peas fashioned in a loaf gaily garnished with egg dice amid broiled bacon: *Pea and Potato Loaf. (Serves 6) Z tablespoons vitaminized margarine H cup dry bread crumbs I cup fresh or canned peas, mashed 1 cap cooked potatoes, mashed H teaspoon salt 1A teaspoon pepper H teaspoon nutmeg H cnp thick white sance 2 hard-cooked eggs, sliced Broiled bacon, if desired Brown crumbs in vitaminized margarine and sprinkle % of them into a well greased loaf pan (8% by 4% by 2% inches) to form a lining. Mix together peas, potatoes, remain ing crumbs and seasonings. Add white sauce (2 tablespoons vitamin ized margarine, 2 tablespoons flour and % cup milk), and mix well. Al ternate layers of peas and potato mixture and sliced eggs until all is used. Bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees) 25 minutes, or until set. Serve with Tomato Sauce made by the addition of 2 tablespoons of vitaminized margarine and a bay leaf to a'can of undiluted tomato soup and cooked together several minutes. Garnish with eggs or broiled bacon, if desired. Your family will exclaim pretty- pretty when you serve this au gratin dish—ringed attractively with car rot slices. The cheese-white sauce combination can make it a main dish: Cabbage and Celery An Gratin. (Serves 6) S cups raw cabbage, shredded - 3 tablespoons butter or other shortening 1 cup diced celery ' 3 tablespoons flour 1A teaspoon salt H teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons chopped pimiento I cup thin cream or top milk I cnp cabbage cooking water I cnp grated cheese % cnp sliced^ carrots Lynn Says: Meaty Facts: If beef supplies are low, learn to use pork, for it's one of the best sources of the B vitamins. It also contains high quality proteins and minerals and is 96 to 98 per cent digestible when cooked long, at low tem perature. Thes non-restricted meats, liv er, heart, kidneys, oxtails, etc., are as nutritious as the restricted cuts. Learn to use them by themselves or by combining them with restricted- cuts so you can s-t-r-e-t-c-h that meat budget. Tougher cuts of meat will be on your menus often, because they take less points than the ex pensive cuts.

Took it on herself to give him a w hat big and point out the evils of gam bling. She’s a strict woman, Augusta, real strict. Good as gold, of course.

First she got hold of the photographs of every boy here in town who’s joined UP, and pasted them on a big board in the window, with little American flags at the corners. Half the town was down there watching her do it. She left the middle empty. Then she brought out a placard she’d had printed up and put it in the middle, and this is what it said: “These are the Local Boys who have enlisted in America’s War—They are betting that you are buying War Bonds and Stamps-Hitler and the Japs are betting you aren’t—Place your bets in side.”My wife couldn’t wait to get herself down there and inside Augusta’s shop to see what in the wide world had happened to her, turning right around about gambling like that. You know my wife. She kind of likes to talk. She went right up to Augusta and said, “Augusta Travers, seems like something’s come over you. Why, I never thought I’d see you run ning a gambling campaign in your own shop.”Mean to tell me it’s a gamble whether this country buys enough bonds to win this war?” Augusta asked.I forgot to say.

Walter E. Iaenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. Every country, every nation, needs level heads and brave hearts. In fact, we asrindividuals all need level heads and brave hearts as we go through life. We are In a world of danger because of the powers of sin, darkness, hatred, war and bloodshed, therefore it requires the best there is in us, and the best we mav obtain from God, to enable us to be soldiers of the cross of Christ, face the powers of wickedness bra vely and courageously and be vic tors for our Lord. In order to have level heads and. brave hearts we mnst have God with ,us. He keeps us evenly bal anced in our heads and brave in our hearts as we go forth for the right and against the wrong. A man does not have a leval head if he lives for the devil, neither does he have a brave heart. He is not at his best. Oftentimes he is at his worst. Every age of the world needs great leaders, great thinkers, there fore it is absolutely necessary for men to be level-headed- In the meantime such an age needs men of great influence end power whose hearts are brave. They must face great problems, greet issues, great dangers, and if they have brave hearts because they are godly and righteously, then they are capable of leading their fellowmen aright and to victory. N odoubt multitudes of people have plenty of brains, plenty of in telligence. and great learning, but if the devil' has their head and heart, then he is going to use it for destructiveness rather than con. strnctiveness. H is business is al ways to destroy rather than save. And what he desires most to de stroy is the lives and usefulness of men while they live, and at the end of life destroy their precious souls in bell. Nothing seems so mhch to men and nations as heads and hearts consecrated nnto God. He will lead us in the right wav and to life’s best. We believe all the pow ers of wickedness combined can never defeat those whose beads, hearts and lives are consecrated un reservedly unto God. He enables men to think right, to do right, and will lead His people unto cer tain victory. Amen Bv John Wesley Clay W h at.is the m atter with the Methodists and Baptists in North Carolina? They are supposed to be the two strongest Christian de. nominations in the State Num erically they are. And each of them proclaim loudly agaiost alco. holism at their annual meetings. We have had two fine Governors from these denominations. And before election each of these men were champtions of prohibition. But when put into the Governor’s chair they seemed to have develop ed cold feet. N either of them, so them so far as we have been able to see, has raised mncb as a little finger against the evil which they so eloquently fought before elec tion. Their oratory proved to be as sounding brass and tinkling cym bals. The Methodists and Baptists have enough votes in North Carolina to put the forces of whisky to rout. Jost as China has the manpower to make the little Jap quake in bis boots if they bad the arms. The Baptist and Methodists have the arms, all right, but they wave them in oratory and beat the air with their eloquence.—Winston Salem Journal, T he R ecord is only $1.00 New Deal Is Dead Jim Farley Ayers The • W hirligig,” a Washington newspaper column, tells an Inter estlng story of a party held by James A. Farley with a number of U. S. Senator in Washington as follows: . “ James A. Farley recently de lighted a luncheon group of sena tors by telling them In an informal talk that the New Deal w a s through both above and below the Mason and Dixon’s line. F. D. R’s original promotor based bis conclusion on a series of conversa tion he had had with key Demo crats in every part of the country. Jim, whose election forecasts usual. Iy hit the bull’s eye, expressed doubt whether the President could carry the .Solid South if be ran for a fourth term, as his aides expect him to do. Among the states men tioned as anti.Roosevelt possibili ties were Texas, Mississippi, Ala bama and Georgia'. The people and the politicians in these areas, according to reports, no longer re gard the Chief Executive as a De mocrat of the old-fashioned stripe and therefore do not feel bound to vote for him in keeping with his. their historic prejudices. They might cast their ballots for a Re publican provided some procedure can be devised by which he will ap pear on a ticket- with a felicitous party pseudovm. The former na tional chairman’s predictions may all be wrong. Dixie might line uo solidly for F. D R.. or some other Democrat. But Jim’s visit and re marks helped congeal' the atmos phere on Capitol Hill. He let White House opponents in the House and Senate know they had his blessing in their dissatisfaction with the Chief Executive. The break be tween these two old buddies is com plete as well as prophetic.” 48 Drivers License Re voked In Six Days Revocation of 48 drivers licenses from February 20 through February 26, was announced by the State high way safety division at Raleigh.

T rtM tj DtfaHmm Truth By Fable The interesting and thought pro voking article in vour last week’s issue, entitled “ Religious Nod- sense,” by Mr Chas H . Utley, brought to mind a fable that I read many vears' ago which probably gives the .answer to Mr. Utley's problem —why so many otherwise intelligent people fail to use their God given intellect in matters p. r- taioing to religion. It ran some thing like this: Two righteous men argued con cerning the nature of God. “ My belief is /’ said one of them ,” “that man does well to fear God. God’s wrath is easily provoked and He is quick to avenge Himself on those who scorn Him and refuse to do His will. Take these earthquakes, cyclones, floods and wars, for ex ample. I believe they are punish, ments inflicted on a wicked world. Men live brazenly in sin and think they can escape God’s' wrath, but His patience does not endure for ever and when He is weary of the world’s wickedness He sends disas. ters to crush those who have dared to affront Him ” “ I think you are wrong,” said the other man. “God isn’t like that at all. These disaster yo ’ are talking about are merely the nor. mal functionings of God’s natural laws, which we call Nature. A flocd is a disaster to those who hap pen to be in its way, whether they are good or bad. Gqd has nothing directly to do with it. H eis a God of love and H is mercy endures for ever. He is kind, gentle and quick to forgive. His heart is filled with pity and with understanding’ for His weak creatures. He is indeed a Father—T H E Father, patient, understanding and slow to anger,” Thus the two men - argued, and because they could not agree, they decided to .visit a wise man who lived near, and ask him to settle their differences. “It is a very simple m atter,” said the wise man. “ Near the top of yonder mountain is a cave and in the cave is a pit that is called bottomless. Go there and look into the pit and you will see your God." The two men visited the cave and gazed inso the pit long and earn estly and then returned to the wise man and told him what they had seen. “ I was right,” said, one of the men.’* IsawGodandHewasjusf as I had pictured Him—stern of countenance, demanding complete obedience and quick to punish all who sin.” “ Gb no, I was right,” said the other man. “ I too saw God and His face is gentle and kind Love and perfect understanding shine forth in His eyes. He would not harm the poorest of His creatures. His great spirit heart is filled with compassion and He will forgive all who transgress” . The wise man laughed. “ Neither of you actual ly saw God in that pit,” said he. “ There is water at the bottom of it and the water serves as a mirror, You saw your own reflections. Each of you has created his own God in his own imagine.” This story probably had its ori gin in the mystic East, the original home of all five of our great rell. gions, but through tbe same meth od so often used by Jesus, it teach, es a great truth—the real character of the loving spirit of God that Jesus endeavored' so faitLfnlly to portray. But In most of us there remains still a hangover, of super stition and fear, inherited from many ages ago, when for man grop ing in intellectual darkues, fear of God meant religion. Through that great and fundamental .Christian truth for which Jesus lived and surrendered his life, “ perfect love castetb out all fear.” the Christian church is making progress slowly. G raduallyit islearning that it is not a private circle of th e elect saints or a Sanhedrin of the infalli bly right in matters religious, hut rather an assembly of worshippers and trnth seekers, conscious of their ignorance and imperfections, band ed together for mutual spiritual im provement and temporal helpfulness —a well approved Instrumentality for uplifting and blessing the world in the spirit of Jesus. The vast in crease of knowledge and experience brought down to us through the ceuturies makes possible a new ex pansion and new application of re. jigious truth, for through science we are constantly receiving revela, tions of divine wisdom from the Holy Spirit of God. This should continue until “ we rest our - weary souls in Him.” In the peace that we all hope soon is to come to this foolish, war torn world, silly, are we to think that it will be permanent unless un to its treaty are patently injected those eternal attributes of God, so beautifully portrayed by Jesus— love, .realization ot the brother hood of all mankind and willing ness for national abnegation in order that all races and peoples may have equal opportunity to live and develop Godward.

There will be no lameut when this Legislature quits Its foolish ness and goes home, but there will be a State-wide hope that they will never return. Their complete sub serviency to tbe wishes of the li quor, wine and beer barons, has been scandalously brazen and ruth less They scornfully ignored the pleas of tbe Christian people and other decent citizens for a referen dum, then proceeded to liberaliza wine and beer control and spread this evil over the entire State. How much longer tbe Christian people of the State will be satisfied with a stone, when they petition their Leg islators for bread, remains for the future to disclose. Certain members of the General Assembly consumed many valuable hours, heaping undeserved praise and qommendation on tbe beads of certain other colleagues, who by chicanery and other questionable methods, have succeeded in passing a rotton bill through both bouses No previous X egislature has so openly practiced the Philosophy of .

W h o ’s N e w s T h i s W e e k By Delos W heeler Lovelace Consolidated Features.—WKU Release. XJEW YORK--The biggest tenth of the 1943 Red Cross War Fund is being raised by Chester M. Colby who knows as well as Morgenfhau . . . _ , how to makeIr* in the Cards the m oney That Colby1U Top roll in. Red Cron Quota ^ for $125,000,000 is now on In full swing and the Colby assignment is to find just a nip under $13,000,000 in New York city for Americans on all the fighting fronts. Thirteen makes a lot of mil- , lions, and more when they buy blood plasma, not to count lesser benefits, but Mr. Colby goes aft- er them without blinking. Over . 20-odd years in an ascending spiral that finally reached the chairmanship of the board of General Foods corporation, he has learned to deal easily with even millions. They may fill his day, but come evening they' have small chance against Lincolniana or, for lighter hours, a crossword puzzle. Just the same he will probably work day and night for the Red Cross since the money is all for the army and navy, and tradition joins the Colby family with both services. Mr. Colby, 65 now and hand somely.. gray, was a major in that llttler World war although, oddly,' he was bom at the Naval Academy and was practically raised on sea water. His father was Rear Admiral Chester M. Colby and his son, third to bear the name, is in the Naval Air service. Fresh out of the army, Mr. Colby was mulling over thr.ee proffered jobs when a fortune teller said that she saw him at the head of a big food concern. He joined the old Postum Cereal company shortly, and deftly pyramided that into Gen eral Foods. COME day the world may worry over geologic-politics as it wor ries now over the geo-politics of Maj. Gen. Prof. Doktor Karl Haushoffer _ , . _ whose rare-Geologtc P olities bit of Heart- To Control World lands, Croos- P v u x -F n t.U U H Offshore Islands gave Hitler dreams, and all the rest of us nightmares. If this happens, another professor, bony C. K. Leith, may get chief praise, or blame. He comes up now to take the Penrose Medal for “emi nent research in pure geology,” but he has been broadcasting the polit ical virtue of his subject for a quar ter of a century. As far back as 1919 at Paris he was advisor to the American Commission to Negotiate Peace, and every word he let fall must have packed political dynamite. Next he said, and probably wishes he hadn’t, that lack of ore for steel permanently re moved Japan as a world war menace. Later he warned, more wisely, that world peace was sadly endangered by prohibi tions against the free search for minerals.' These days, as advi sor to the administration in Washington, he insists that by controlling the world’s minerals the democracies can control the peace. The professor is 67'years old. His face in repose is severe, but his full lips meet lightly as lips do that smile easily. Bom in Wisconsin, he was graduated from the state uni versity and has taught there for 40 years. His wife and' 2 sons com plete his family.

As he sees it surely, the TJnited States will be stronger all around, in men-of-war, in ships, in airplanes. Sir Archibald is 73 years old now. He added the lmighttiood 15 years ago, but even before that other naval experts were quiet when he wished to speak. The son of a modest solicitor, he wrote himself Into1Snch fame that admirals of the sea did not snub him. His books fill a big shelf, and cover an unrationed range of subjects as wide as the Atlantic itself. His most vigorous pieces, howev er, have contemplated the future of British sea power and have not been happy about it. He always had qualms, but his first major alarm was. raised just after the 1914-17 or sample World war. He was sure then that the V. S. Shipping board was out to cripple the British merchant ma rine. While the fighting still raged, he had called upon the United States for.m en and material to replace British bottoms sunk by German submarines, and presumably some replacement had been made.

A SERIES OF SPECIAL ARTICLES BY THE LEADING WAR CORRESPON • B U R M A By Daniel De Luce ClTJVIf Feature—Tbrougb special arrangement with Collier's Weekly) Greatest reservoir of fighting man power to whip the Japanese lies in free, unoccupied China. For five years the Chinese soldier has proved himself every bit as coura geous and clever as his Japanese enemy. He has hung on in the face of discouraging odds, lacking mod ern weapons and an air force. Anglo - American arsenals should eventually be able to fur nish him with these new arms and give him the support of a combined armada of airplanes. However, “the day” is indefinite. Ib 1943? Perhaps longer. There is a lot of spade work to be done, for a great Allied offensive “on the Asi atic continent. It is required chiefly in Burma. And it is being planned right now by Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, General Wavell and General Stil- well. Allies Need Burma. The transfer of a thousand bomb ers and a thousand fighting planes from America to China could be made in seven days. But once hav ing got the air fleet to China, the Allies would be little better off than before, unless they had Burma. For the air force would need fuel— not a few thousand. gallons flown laboriously over the Himalayas, but many thousand tons. And where is the oil for the future planes of China? In Bur ma. “Oh,” you say, “weren’t the Burma fields scorched by the British? Or was that just another newspaper story?” Yes, the Burma fields wer'e scorched, thoroughly scorched. At the moment they’re useless. But listen to the man who did the scorch'; ing. “If the Japanese brought In 15,000 specialists and'50,000 tons of equip ment and machinery, they could get Burma producing again within a few months. But they have neither the specialists nor the equipment. We have both. We can soon have the wells flowing—if and when we re capture Burma.” Scorching of Burma. For the story of the scorching of Burma, let’s begin looking into a little red cloth-covered notebook which this itinerant war correspond ent bought in Mandalay for ten an nas, before the ships were bombed and burned - down on Good Friday last year. I had it in a sweaty pock et of my khaki shirt when I jeeped through Yenang-tuang, oil capital of Burma, on Thursday, April 16, 1942. Yenang-taung in Burmese, means “stream of the smelly waters.” Some centuries ago, silk-skirted na-> tives scooped up the pungent black liquid and burned it in crude lamps at home. Came the white man. In the last 6(1 years thousands of der ricks sprang np on the drab hills. Burma oil, a million tons every 12 months, began lighting many a lamp in greater Asia. Then came the Jap. He was about 30 miles south of the oil capital and pressing hard last April when I walked into the main oil-field head quarters and met a lean, hard, eagle-nosed English civilian load ing his .38 army revolver. He was Walter L. Forster of the Shell Oil company at Cairo. He had supervised the demolition of the Rangoon refineries the previous month, then calmly departed and was now in central Burma to finish similar assignments here. At work or play, Forster likes dynamite. Knowing his specialty, the British government had sent him late in 1941 to Russia, to advise the Soviet engineers in their program of scorching the earth. Ho quickly decided that the Russians knew more than he did, but he stayed to learn their methods, and visited secret areas of the Caucasus. He remarked afterwards that the Reds had carried out factory wreck ings in one day that Anglo-American experts had forecast might take six months. “But I wish the Russians could have seen our job at Rangoon,” he mused. “Smoke up to 15,000 feet. Vapor up to 19,000 feet. Not a drop of oil left for the Japs, nor a piece of workable machinery.” After Rangoon was gone, Forster tackled the pipe line which had run more than 300 miles down-country from the Burma oil .fields. He plugged the pipe with cement at riv er crossings,' smashed the section pumps, wrecked bridges. Then he turned to the oil fields. The last job, he said, was blowing up the big powerhouse. “I’ve got 6,300 gallons of oil in drums stored above the transform ers,” he said. “Got oil piped in here to the main room, too. And the jets will turn on after the explosion. Nice fire we’re cooking upl” M a k e S lip C o v e r s fo r .

SPEECH DEFECTS Dr. Bartmi A pupil at public school was a member of a special group prepar ing for scholarships. This class, of which I was a member, remained' ________in the classroom un til S p. m. and at tended Saturday , morning 9 to 12. When the results were announced this girl stood first de spite the fact that sh e sta m m e r e d s o b a d ly t h a t she was unable to read in front of the class. As she was very brilliant I was not surprised at'her beating the rest of us, but I figured she would lose so many marks in her reading that some of us might over take her. The explanation was that when she took her reading exami nation she read before the teacher only and read clearly and distinctly without stammering in the slightest. Despite the fact that school teach ers knew this fact that stammerers did not stammer amid home or familiar surroundings it is only with in recent years that the general pub-, lie and stammerers themselves are learning that while some speech de fects are due to some disturbance of the structures that control speech, most cases of stammering are due to nervousness and self consciousness. , I am writing about stammering at Ris time as I have at hand a hand book of the Chicago Speech Correc tion society. The society was or ganized by a group of speech cor- rectionists in the Chicago area, its purposes and qualifications being in accordance with the standards and ethical codes of the American Speech Correction association. The purposes of the society are to foster ethical principles and practices in the field of speech correction. To this end the qualifications demanded for membership are very high. “The speech correctionist or ther apist is one whose technical training has been such as to enable him to conduct the examination, make the diagnosis (find the cause of the de fect) and direct re-education of (I) individuals whose voice or speech problems call unfavorable and em barrassing attention to themselves and constitute an educational, so cial, or business handicap; and (2) individuals who suffer from voice or speech conditions that are ab normal to such a degree that they are able to converse with others to a very limited extent.” My thought is that as the stam merer or a sufferer with other speech defects can now be helped, he should look well to the qualifica tions of the speech correctionist he consults.• * • W h y O v e r w e i g h t s D i s l i k e E x e r c i s e It is estimated that about nine of every ten cases of overweight are due directly to overeating, another S per cent to inactivity of certain glands, and the other 5 per cent to overeating combined with lack of gland activity. This means that 95 of every 100 overweights should fol low a reducing diet containing an insufficient number of calories, the extra calories really needed to do the body’s work being made up from the excess fat in and on the body. What about exercise? If overweights realized the bene fits derived from exercise, they would be more willing to take it regularly. AU that most of them find is that exercise increases their appetite and so little or no weight is lost. Why do overweights so greatly dislike exercise? Exercise means ef fort and there is less than the nor mal desire for effort in overweights. Every movement they make—walk ing, jogging, bending—means the lifting or carrying of much more weight than for one of normal weight. So, rather than use this se vere effort, they are willing to do without some of their daily intake of food. They simply choose the lesser of two evils. If, however, they are willing to take the exercise instead of doing without the food, they will not only use up the excess fat and so bring their figure back or nearly back to normal, but will get rid of their dis like for exercise and be more will ing to take it regularly. - As they grow lighter and more "limber,” they may actually develop a desire for exercise. Remember, exercise is useful in reducing weight before middle age. After middle age, cutting down or food is the safest method. • • • QUESTION BOX Q.—Do nerves cause shortness of breath; if not, what is the cause? A.—“Nerves” can cause shortness of breath.

XHE APPEARANCES AFTER THE RESURRECTION LESSON TEXT—JOhn 20:19-31. GOLOBH TEXT—I am alive for ever more.—Revelation 1:18. The most important day in all his tory was the first day of the week following the crucifixion of Christ. Then He appeared to His disciples as their risen Lord. AU the hope of all mankind for all eternity depend* ed on His victory over death. By eventide news had come to the disciples of His resurrection, and half in hope and half in uncertainty they had gathered to talk over these matters. Fearful of the Jews, they met behind closed doors. AU at once He was there—the Lord Him self. What a wonderful change came over them as He made Himself known to them. They went I. From Fear to Gladness (vv. 19, 20). Their eyes had been upon their enemies and they were afraid. Now they “were glad, when they saw the Lord." We need to learn that lesson. If we look within we are ashamed and discouraged. If we look around us we are confused and fearful. If we look to Christ we are glad and strong. Notice that their joy was not based only on an emotional impulse. They saw Christ in His resurrection body—the very One who had died. The evidence was there before them. Now they could understand the things He had said to them. The .whole realm of spiritual truth was now in focus again, and they were glad. So are we when we really see Christ. II. From Weakness to Strength (w . 21-23). The disciples who were caUed to be witnesses for Christ had lost their testimony when He died on the cross. UnbeUef and discouragement had so weakened them that they were in hiding instead of being out proclaim ing His truth. Now the risen and victorious One sent them forth with the Father’s blessing. They were empowered by the Holy Spirit, and given great au thority (v. 23). Note that it was given not to one man or to the lead ers, but to aU the disciples. It was “a declarative right, and it belongs to every true disciple. Those who have received the gift of the Holy Spirit are in a position to declare to men that their sincere repentance brings forgiveness” (Douglass). The opposite is also true. III. From Doubt to Faith (w . 24- 28). Thomas, who had doubts and who cultivated them by his stubborn at titude (v. 25), did himself and his brethren a serious disservice by be ing absent from the meeting on the evening of the first Easter Day. When he did appear he had only doubts to contribute. Let those who make a custom of absenting them selves from the place and hour of service beware lest they do like wise. His doubts were honest ones—and God always meets such questions, honestly and intelUgently. When the evidence was before him, the heart of Thomas leaped the chasm from doubt to faith in one cry of com plete devotion (v. 28).' It is significant that down through the ages many doubters have been won to Christ by the proof of the resurrection of Christ, which is by the testimony of historical schol ars “the best authenticated fact in all history.” The risen Christ stands before men today and says, “Be not faithless but believing.” May many respond with Thomas, “My Lord and my God.” IV. From Death to Life (w . 29- 31). Christ arose from the dead not just to show that He had power to do so, but, as Paul puts it, “for our justification” (Rom. 4:25). The reality and dependability of the en tire plan of salvation hinged on the return of Christ from the dead. Had the grave held Him, His claims of deity and of the abiUty to for give sin would have been entirely discredited. Because He Uves we shaU Uve. The experience of regeneration is therefore likened in Scripture to a passing from death to life (John 5:24). Thomas saw the Lord, and beUeving, passed from doubt to faith. We cannot see Him now, but we have the blessed privilege of be lieving and thus receiving life (w . 29, 31). • This was the mssage which the now radiant and empowered disci ples went out to preach- The book of Acts tells us how effectively they did it, and show^ how much of their preaching centered on the fact of the resurrection. Tho Command and the commis sion was not to them alone, but also to all «t J is who beUeve in Christ. May God take out of us the fear of men, overcome cur weak ness, and send us out with renewed faith to make this life-giving mes sage known to our fellow men, HOUSEHOLD rnsmos. *......................M ... Today’s Cake Fixings Are Simple, Food Saving (See B ecipes Below) Bake Your Own! Those of you who have chosen homemaking as a career can set aside a half day for baking your own goodies right in your own oven. There are few things nicer than coming into a kitchen fuU of busy bustling, testing the cake, plump ing'fat loaves of bread on racks to cool, or packing cookies in fresh wax paper for pantry shelves—for those fine boys in the service! When sugar rationing first came into the picture, most of us feared that it would not aUow enough for home baking needs, but we have found ways to make sugar stretch. Or, perhaps we should say, corn syrups and honey to make baking possible. With eggs up in price and fats becoming scarce, we have changed our recipes to fiU these needs, too!

There’s this about it: keeping one’s mouth shut will serve to keep a lot of ignorance from leakingout And now it is reported that there are more canned goods in thecoun than the folks know what to do with. And we used to tune in on Sun. day morning to hear Governor Broughton teach the Sunday school lesson. The honor system in conserving gas didn’t seem to wotk. It used to be said that there was honor even among thieves, but under the New Deal everything seems to have changed. Parents who are sending their sons who are in the army The Re cord, should see that the subscrip tions are kept paid in advance.

CLINTON SM ITH Red Cross Meeting - A Red Cross meeting was held in the Court House Monday night of last week to begin the Red Cross War Fund Drive in Davie County. The meeting was called at 8 o’clock and there were between 50 and 60 chairmen and workers present. This included the following Chairmen: Miss Vada Johnson, Farmington Dis trict, Mr. T. C. Peg ram. Cooleemee District, Mrs K. 0 . Minor, Smith Grove Redland District, Mrs. G. V. Green. Fork Church District, Miss Ruth Graves. Turrentme District, Mr George Evans, Center-Calahaln District, Dr. P. H. Mason Mocks* ville District, Miss Florence Mackie, representing the Home Demonstra ting Clubs of Davie county, ard Prof James Murfree. Col., repr<- senting the Home Demnnstratinn Clubs of Davie County, and Prof. James Murfree. Col. representing the colored people of Davie County. The speaker for the evening was Mr. Archie K. Davis of Winston- Salem who outlined most clearly the many acts of mercy which the Red Cross has accomplished, not only in war time, in providing for our soldi era. but in peace times is providing for our own 48 states. The enthusiasm of all of the Chair men and the workers lead us to be lieve Davie county will make its quota of $4800 which if we Jo make, will give us every reason to be proud of our county and its people. If any citizen of Davie County is not called on, it will be an oversight and that citizen should look up the Chairman in his district and make a contribution as it is the object of the Davie County Drive to get aeon, contribution of some denomination from every citizen of the county. Chairman J. C. Sanford reports that quite a few people have joined the $50 and $160 Clubs SB well as a large number who have joined the i!25, $10 and $5 Clubs, all of which is very encouraging, and it looks like everyone is trying to give, not only double, but many times what they have ever given before. With this kind of spirit being shown, it is most encouraging. It is the last $1000 which is going to be the hardest to raise but we must not let up until we have raised every dollar which has been aaked' of. us. It would be wonderful if we could round the mount out to an even $5000, which Former MocksrilIe Boy| NowMajor optin' Point values for particular pro-1 j we Caa do if every citizen will do his ids will be announced during the)or her duty to tbe friends and loveddncts week of March 22.who are doing so much for us.

Later navigators looked for them in vain. They be came a joke among sailors, and— incredible though it may seem— they were struck off the map!

By a ring she recognizes It as Koddy Lane’s. A new guest, victor Quade, arrives. Now continue with Judy’s story. CHAPTER III “Wylie’s gone to the village to see about gettin’ the sink drain fixed,” Aunt Nella murmured drowsily. That meant Rockville beyond Pirate’s Neck, where the rest of the boarders probably were. I went down the two flights—Auntie and I have rooms in the attic—and reported. “We’ll just have to wait,” Mr. Quincy said. “It’s after ten o’clock. Someone will be along soon. No celebration in Rockville to keep ’em late—fireworks display or silly bon fire.” “I could walk it,” Mr. Quade ob jected. “Only four or five miles, isn’t it?” "If you do, you’ll take Miss Jason and push me, young man!” Victor grinned, and I felt com pletely disarmed. No man with lovely teeth like that could be a cold blooded villain. “Maybe you’re right,” he said. “You’re sure there’s nobody at the castle who could go?” “What do you, a stranger, know about the castle?” “Nothing, except that the garage 'man said it was empty. I could have the whole grounds to work in. He also recommended Mrs. Gerry’s pies. Can’t beat that combination— solitude and good pie.” Someone was coming down the stairs. We all looked up to see Hugh Norcross pausing to smooth his slick hair and straighten an already me ticulously correct tie before he en tered. "Did you knock on my door a while ago, Miss Jason?” “Why, yes, I did. You didn’t an swer. TMs is Mr. Quade. Mr. Nor- cross.” Hugh bowed swiftly and then turned again to me. “I thought it was my sister. Next time it’s you, announce yourself, young lady.” “Nice brother!” “Well, there’s such a thing as self- defense. Bessie’s very nervous. Had three fits this evening. Wanted me to thrash Lane for—for what he said to poor Mr. De Witt. Said she’d fix him if he ever came around here again. Tell him a thing or two her- self. Why,” he broke off, “what makes you all look so funny? Any thing wrong?” Thaddeus Quincy spoke up: “Where’s Bessie now?” "Sound asleep, thanks be! I just peeked.” “And I suppose you were reading —between fits?” Victor Quade asked nonchalantly. “I was. Ethics of Spinoza, since you ask.” Was he telling the truth? Before we had a chance to tell him about my gruesome discovery in the basement of the church Lily Kendall came toddling into the room and plunked herself down on the nearest stuffed chair. “Gee, I’m tuckered!” She fanned herself with a chubby ringed hand, fingering her beads with the other. “Well, Judy, I see you beat me home. Oh, introduce me! Another boarder?” Victor Quade received her melt ing smile politely. Mr. Quincy cut in: “Miss Kendall, you’ve been walking, I take it, the long way round. See anybody be tween here and the church?” Lily shook her chin. “Only you— down there at the steps. Me, I !Wandered all over, through the Lane castle grounds.” She inquired of Mr. ' Quade. Then, “If you mean the Lane feller, no, I didn’t see him. Nobody there, looks like. Why?” I thought the silence would never end. Victor Quade just stared at Lily till she again demanded, “Why? What you aL so mysterious about?” “You didn’t know the Lane feller has been killed, I presume?” “Killed! Auto accident?” “Murder.” Lily’s pink beads broke and spat tered in all directions. Then her pleasant face lighted. “Oh, boy! Think of the publicity. Wish my niece was here. Pictures all over the newspapers and no fake- stuff, either. Why, you couldn’t buy it. Interviews and everything! Who shot him?” “Who said he was shot?” Victor threw at her. “Was he?” “Search me. Maybe somebody stuck a knife in his back.' Some body wanted to last night, all rightie.- I heard what I heard. 'And I saw what I saw. I ain’t insinuatin’ noth ing, Mr, Quincy, but you did leave the table first, and I did see you down at the church a little while ago.”Thaddeus Quincy’s lip curled. “Oh, surely. I marathoned down in my wheel chair and knifed him.” He was looking at Quade now. “Then I cut the telephone wires so the po lice couldn’t be notified.” “You’re sure you didn’t see^any- body skulking about during your walk?” Mr. Quade-raked Lily. “No, sirree. Why ask me? Where’s the rest of the gang? Gone to the movies? Nothing else 'doin’ in Rockville, so I decided to stay home.” “They ought to be back pretty soon if they have,” Hugh- said, of fering cigarettes to everybody. “What’s say you and I wander down the road to meet them, Mr. Quade?” A muffled boom that was not the sea rattled the windows of the old house. No cannon crackers ever made that noise, either. “What was that?” we cried in uni son. “Sounded like an explosion,” Vic tor Quade said. A moment we sat petrified as the rumbling noise of an explosion came to our ears. Hugh Norcross tore up the stairs as Atmt Nella tore down. “Judy, where’s your Uncle Wy lie?” She stood just outside the door, but we could all see her bare feet. “What was that noise?” “We don’t know, Auntie. Why don’t you go back to bed? Just somebody celebrating the Fourth.” “Why should she go back to bed?” Mr. Quincy wanted to know. “She’s in this tiling, too.” “Don’t Mis’ Gerry know he’s been killed?” shrilled Lily. Aunt Nella keeled but caught her self. Victor sprang to help her into the room, while we all explained at once it wasn’t her husband who’d been murdered. “Lane!” Aunt Nella sat up trem bling. “Bessie! And I don’t blame her a mite.” (Trust the Head to re member a five-year-old scandal!) Hugh was back. “Keep my sis ter’s name out of this. She didn’t hear the—the explosion, thanks be.” “Get your aunt dressed, Miss—is it Jason? Come on, you." Mr. Quade grabbed hold of Hugh’s arm. “Let’s Victor Quade received her melt ing smile politely. investigate. Something happened down the road. Accident probably. May need help.” “Wait. Want my first-aid kit?” “Good girl. Hurry." I ran upstairs to the medicine closet, where I’d marked a shoe box on a top shelf, "first aid.” It had sterilized gauzej adhesive tape, an iodine swab and vaseline in it. But the kit wasn’t needed, after all. I’d barely reached the front hall when two cars brought home the rest of our guests. They joined the others, while Lily, Hugh, Mr. Quincy in his chair, and Aunt Nella, who’d managed to get into her robe but stood. shivering in bare feet, plied them with questions. I began to count them, all talking at once about the explosion: Al bion Potter and the Rev. Jonas De Witt, but where was Uncle Wylie? “Where’s Wylie?” lisped Aunt Nella. I put my arm around her. “He’s all right or they’d say so. The explosion wrecked the bridge.” “What bridge? I don’t remember a bridge between here and the main land,” Victor Quade said. “Dark when I came in. The fog and all.” “You wouldn’t notice it at night,” Hugh said. “Just a short affair over a bit of the Neck. Pirate’s Head is really an island.” “Mean a person could walk across? Marshland, isn’t it?” "No. Not there. Rocky. Dan gerous currents. Regular rip tide. Take a mighty strong swimmer, that gap. The water swirls and eddies into a regular whirlpool. Darned narrow escape they had, if you ask me.”It was difficult to find out what’d happened when all made such a din. But the bridge had blown up not long after the two cars had crossed safely over. They’d both stopped and gone back, but had seen no body,- and:so come on. All agreed the bridge was out of commission, either by a bomb or dynamite. “The murderer did it, .of course,” shrilled Lily, “so’s he could make a getaway before we called, the po lice.” “Murderer!” They gasped, wido eyed. "Oh, dear! Where’s my hus band?” piped Aunt Nella. The Reverend De Witt stood up. "Don’t be alarmed, my .good wom an. He’s out in the car.” He boomed oratorically on all occasions, even now. “Is he hurt? Why doesn’t he come in?” Aunt Nella started for the door. Albion Potter blocked the way. “H I get him, Mrs. Gerry. He isn’t hurt.” A sort of sickly grin crept round his mouth. “Just slightly— slightly—” “—under the weather? He’ll sleep it off,” grinned Lily Kendall. , “Mr. Potter and t brought him home with us,” the clergyman said as Aunt NeIla wriggled past him with a loud “H’mmmp!” He spread his hand as if he were giving the benediction. “Now what’s all this about a murder?” “Suppose you talk, Quade,” Thad- deus Quincy said. "This young man, Victor Quade, is a writer. He ar rived at the Head in a trailer to write fiction, inspired by the inn pies and the Lane estate. That right?” Victor smiled. “In a way. Go on.” “No, you go on. Tell ’em the whole business. We’re all here but Wylie Gerry, and he’s TiorS de com bat.’ ” “That’s French for drunk,” Lily whispered to me. “Ain’t this thrill ing? My, I’m glad I didn’t go to Bar Harbor.” Victor Quade took the floor and gave the facts as he knew them. How he’d arrived after dark and waited in the inn parlor till we found him. How Mr. Quincy and I had gone down to the church for my handbag to find a key to fit Bessie Norcross’ door, and how I’d seen Lane’s dead hand sticking out of the lid of the sea chest in the cellar. How the wires of the phone had been found cut. And now the bridge blown up. “We’re trapped. Miss Kendall was right. Whoever killed Lane had no intention of our getting back to town tonight to get the police,” Hugh said. “What are we going to do?” “We’re going to keep quiet and let Mr. Quade talk,” Mr. Quincy said, thumping his cane. “The rest of us were just one happy,family till he came along. Let him contin ue. Maybe he’ll give himself away.” “Right.” Victor showed those marvelous teeth of his in a smile which could make anyone believe him a saint. “The question is, what are we to do? I would have called the police, but my car is in a Rock ville garage. Now your cars are useless on account of the bridge. It’s high tide.. Anyone feel like swim ming across, and then walking the —Just how far is it?” The bridge is about half a mile from the Head and four miles from town. Hugh said he was darned if he’d leave his sister at a time like that. Mr. Quincy shook his head resignedly. That left only the Rev erend, who boomed his swimming days were over, and Victor Quade. “It would be suicide for me,” Vic tor said. “Doctor’s orders. This trailer business, with the dabbling at writing, is because I’m recovering from a recent illness.” “But the police will be here, any way, won’t they?" De Witt said. “They must have heard the explo sion in Rockville.” The men doubted it. Certainly i t hadn’t sounded very loud in the inn parlor so close by. If they did hear it, they’d put it down to shin digs the night before the Fourth. The milkman would' be coming to the Head—wher? N ot‘till around noon! “Let’s see—it’s now 11 o’clock. The explosion occurred — when? Quarter of?”We let it go at approximately that. The movies close early in Rock ville, and the two cars had com* along together. “Perhaps the police will come. Meanwhile, why don’t we *11 try act as normally as possible Unti1 dayli—” He broke off as a shrtt. cry from outside came from Aunl Nella. “Wylie! Wyliiiiie!” We hadn’t noticed that Albion Potter, who’d gone out with mr aunt, had come back and was stand ing in the doorway. “He—he wasn” in the car, Mrs. Gerry,” he stam mered. “She’s hunting all over cre ation in her bare feet. He can’t be far.” “No, I should imagine not*” boomed the preacher. He broke off, and suggested, after some hesita tion: “If—if the water isn’t too rough, I could row a boat.” Yes, and es cape, I couldn’t but think. Hadn’t Lane called him Smith? Maybe ha was an ex-convict. “You could not,” Mr. -Quincy said with finality. “Isn’t any.” And that was that. ‘T m going after my aunt Will someone come with me. She’ll know.” “I will.” Hugh was on one sio* and Victor Quade on the other. But the whole crowd followed. We hadn’t gone six yards before Aunt Nella gave a thin piercing scream that sounded down toward the sea. “Help! HellllllpS” Pellmell into the fog we ran. “Coming, Auntie!” I called in an swer to her call for help.

He Price Has To Be Paul Rev. Walter E. henhour. Hiddenite. N. C. Here is a saying we have heard many times: “ You can’t do wrong and get by.” W e know this is ab solutely true. Every man has to pay for his folly, and pay dearly. H e may think he can escape the penalty, but not so. 'Those who do wrong either pay for it here or hereafter, or both. If one repents and God forgives him, and be lives true and faithful unto God after wards, be only pays for his folly in this life; but if -he does wrong and never repents and receives for giveness, he pays for it in this life and world and in the life and world beyond. Beloved, it’s so It costs very greatly to commit sin. Nothing isso expensive. It costs one his health oftentimes, his money, his manhood, bis honor, his good name, his character, and finally his soul, if he lives and dies in bis sins. Men pay for their fol Iy by lost opportunities, wasted lives, remorseful memories, damned souls. Many pay for it behind prison bars, on chaingangs, In pen itentiaries, In electric chairs and gas chambers. Multitudes pay for their folly by wrecked homes, se parated children, squandered prop erty, divorced husbands and wives, heartaches and sighs. Many are paying for it in insane asylums, or by carrying a guilty conscience, which lashes and torments them through life. Multitudes pay for it in eternity’s night, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. O how dreadful! Remember, dear one, when you do wrong, go wrong, keep the' wrong company, go to the wrong places, wield the wrong Influence, spend your money wrong, use your health and strength wrong, violate the laws of God and nature, :nd set out to do as you please, the price has to be paid. There is no way to escape it You’ll pay for it here, even though you may be forgiven of onr heavenly Father and do not have tv pay hereafter. Bnt you have to pay somewhere. It is indeed no little thing to diso bey God, go contrary to conscience, reason and right, and set out to have your own way. Man’s way is never God’s way, and his wav leads wrong, brings the wrong re. snlts and ends at the wrong destl nation. „ The price of wrongdoing has to be paid, and ;the world to day is paying for it in many ways, and especially bby war, bloodshed, and the loss of billions of dollars worth of property and multiplied millions of lives. Indeed the price has to be paid. T he R ecord U only $1.00 WAR BONDS Women at War today are saving for Women at Poaee when the War is won.

Trmimey DttarlMtHi Big Prices The Fanner DoesNotGet The Southern AgricpIturist in its March issue says that although farmers are one hundred per cent for the war program and are mak ing a hundred per cent effort to ward it. still one cannot help not. ing a marked degree of unresc and dissatisfaction among them. In farming and in working for and with farmers over a long period of years I have never before seen nearly so discontented, as a whole, In time of prosperity as they are at present. This state of mind can be attri. bated to a number of causes, some of the major ones being: the heavy drain made on farm man power by the draft and by industry tbat can pay such higher wages than the farmer can afford to pay under pre sent circumstances; the constant petting’’ of labor by th . govern ment while farmers have been ac cused of being greedy, selfish and unpatriotic because they insisted on receiving fair legislative matters; the refusal of organized labor to work more than 4 0 hours per week, as the regular work week, during a great national emergency, while the farmer is working an average of; more than 70 hours per week; the obvious waste of public funds in'hiring thousands of nndeed Fed eral employees that are making no contribution whatever to the war program; and the inability of farm ers to secure a reasonable amount of farm machinery to partly re* the manpower that has gone to in-, dustrv and the armed forces. It is unfortunate that consumers generally lose sight of the fact that all or even most of the money they pay for does not reach the farm ers’ pockets This fact was force fully brought out in sh address I heard Senator Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma deliver during the re cent meeting of the Americ; n Farm Bureau. Here are a few important facts as given b / Senator Thomas: When consumers pay 10c for a loaf of bread, the farmer who grew the wheat received scarcely more than ic for the time and invest ment put into it. When farmers receive less than $1 per bushel for wheat, a bushel of wheat processed into bread and other wheat products, retails at more than fifteen dollars. One bushel of corn brings the farmer about 70c. Yet when the corn is processed into corn pro ducts, the consumer pays $12 a bushel. For 100 pounds of potatoes the farmer received about $2. But when- the potatoes are processed into strings and chips the consum er pays over $50 per bushel. The steak listed on the bill of fare at f i to $2 brings the farmer ioc to 15c. Fourth Term Battle Senator Kenneth S. Wherry, th new Nepublican senator from N e braska, assested in a statement Monday night at Washington tbat talk of a fourth term form Presi dent Roosevelt sterms from a “sud den campaign initiated by shirt- tail riding yes-men of the New Deal” and signifies the breakdown of the two party system . He assailed what be termed the “selfish strategy of the New Deal bureaucrats to maintain President Roosevelt in office on the shadow pretext that only be can lead us to victory.” This campaign shows, he added, that the two-party set-up has been supplantanted by a Re- publican-New Deal allignment. When now is weighing whether to introduce a constitutional a mendment to. limit Presidentialten- tire to two terms: Help China We think that the United States should help China to the very limit. We do not think tbat the heln should include a n expeditionary force. China has more men than she can possibly feed and arm. Except for experts to help tbe China master airplanes and other war machinery we think it would be poor business to use precious • cargo space with men. As a matter of fact our men. A sa matter of fact cur men are more needed in industry than in the army now. Russia needs equipment rather than men. We would not ad- cate disbanding all of our troops but the idea of an eleven million United States army does not make sense as we see it. ThiB is a machine and not a man age. Men without ma chines are as helpless as girl babies in war. Our task is to feed, clothe and equip the Chinese and if we do that they will attend to the Japan ese with pleasure and with dispatch. The most foolish policy in tbe whole world is the tbe one we have been following in robbing the farmB for armed forces. That foolish policy is at the point of being ehanged. The best way for us to help China and the world is to furnish food and munitions. This we are going to do We came near being too late. The outlook for food is dark but a Jot can be done this spring and summer if farm labor is made available. The time for that is now. Deiav is dead ly. Farmers have too much sense to plant more than they have prospects of reaping. Make that help avail able and crops will be planted that will really help China.—Charity and Children. . The Right Idea There has been change in the rules governing the use of gasoline. It is as much against the rules to do plea sure driving now as it was before the contro' was taken from the po lice and turned over to the indivi duals honor—if any Judging by the'statement in the News and Ob server that there were 400 automo biles parked in the vicinity of tbe basketball game in Rale'gh one night last week, one would gather the honor system is not working very well. For all of that we are for the honor system and will risk the aver age person’s honor before we would the police who have plenty to do without checking on the goings and the comings of automobile drivers We could settle the whole thing so far as holders of A cars are concern ed. We would say “You are allow ed so much and no more. It is vours; do what you please with it.” We understand that is true of sugar and coffee. Evenr person is allowed so much and it is his own. He can UBe it or give it awav buCwhe- it is gone it is gone, and tbat makes sense.— Charity and Children. Offers To Pay For Hen StoIeo AnotheralCase of the proverbial honest man” came to light today when Sheriff Walter D. Morrison tolk of a man expressing a desire to pay in full for a chicken he stole 40 years ago. The man. whose identity was not disclosed, fcrmerly lived in t h e neighborhood of Sheriff Morrison’s parents, the late Mr and Mrs. W1 E. Morrison, but later spent many years in the west, and is now resid' ing in North Carolina, in one of the counties of the Piedmont sec'ion. In the letter, which the sheriff was reading this morning, the man told Sheriff Morrison that when he was a boy he stole a chicken from the sheriff’s mother and sold it to a store in the neighborhood. The man said tbat he wanted to settle in full for the hen which be stole at least four decades ag ■, and asked the sheriff to lethim know how much it would take to cancel 'he obligation. In the course of the interview with a reporter of this paper. Sheriff Morrison started that he would write the boyhood neighbor in a few days, advising him that there is no bill to pay. The reporter estimated that SO cents was an average price for a hen 40 years ago, and tbat the leg. rate of interest added for two-score years would run the bill up to ap proximately $1.70. but the county chief executive replied tbat no bill would be'sent.—Statesville Daily. Let Us Pray (By Rev. LoV D. TboroiMaD) You will pardon me if I quote a few lines from a letter I received recently from a Virginia city: “You are doubtless wondering about the origin of this letter. It has a sim ple purpose, to express to you my personal appreciation for your col umn in the Lincoln county paper, ‘Let Us Pray.’ If your message has an audience no larger than the cir culation of that county paper, it iB indeed a pity, for what we all need as individuals and as a nation is the desire and the ability to nray a« von so beautifully set forth in your co lumn.” This subscriber teaches upon a point of vital imnortance. “ the desire and the ability to prav.” When we have the desire we shall soon develop the abilitv to pray. Do we rr ally want to prav? Isaiah was a man of prayer. He had a deen de- sire to know God in prayer. Hear him in the agonv of desire: “With my soul I have desired thee in tbe night; yea with my spirit within me will I seek three early.” If we do not desire to pray it is not sure that we desire God. Our desiresaretbe dynamic energies that propel us the creative forces that sweeps us forward. Stevenson has portrayed a. character that analyzes his own weakness in the following words: “ Mine is the malady of not wanting not caring ” What a splendid thing is indifference! It is one of the most fatal things in life. If we are going to make any headway with the Master our hearss roust beat with passionate desire for him and the blessing he alone can give us. To be lukewarm in the realm of religion is to be a castaway. Prayer should be ope of the dominant desires of our hearts JesuB has devoted one of his beautiful beautitudes to desire. “Blessed are they that hunger and thrist.” Yes. we all need as indi viduals and as a pation the desire and the abilitv to pray. Therefore, let'us pray and keep on praying. Yesterday I w a s examining a friend’s Bible and found these words, written in long hand: Prayer is a sanctuary where no terror can in. vade.” Prayer is a sanctuary where no terror can invade.” Prayer creat es a holy atmosphere in the heart. It promotes faith, strengthens love, increases reverence a n d produces hope. It is sanctury that you carry with you wherever you go—on the moun tain top, in the fox hole, in sub marine, in bomber, on the field of battle. Prayer can enter every do main of mud, every area of peril, every realm of joy. It is a cry for security. It is the antidote for malice and vindictive ness. It is a plea that the will of the Alm ightym ight be realised in life of man. It is a spiritual force mightier than armies and navies that men build and support. It is the lack of prayer that transforms the sanctuary into a desert, the holy temple into a bleak waste. We should thank God for prayer. The sanctury suggests the pres- ence of God. Bishop Vincent was visited by a friend - one day. The friend found him writing a letter. He seemed quite pleased and inter ested. Bishop vincent asked tbe visitor if he wished to know to whom he was writing my daily let ter to God.” said tbe great man. In that way he'found God to be real This method brought God close to him as a friend, a comrade It help ed him think of God as a personaly. This daily letter was a prayer. Pray er is a sanctuary.

Credit and Discredit Iu a democracy sncb as our own where all people are free to think, to speak, and to act for themselves there is always a great variety, of opinions concerning a number of vital national problems. But there is one issue now before the country upon which most of us are agreed -tb a t this war must be won and won as quickly as possible. On tbe credit side of all out war oroduction so essential to the win ning of the war, we have great in dustries which have turned from the production of peacetime pro. ducts to the production of ships, planes, tanks, guns, trucks, and hundreds of other war needs with the . greatest possible speed. We have millions of skilled workers to learn their new war jobs We have housewives, businessmen, the ban. dicapped, and even older children who spend either a part of the time or their whole time in the war plants These are the 100 per cent loyal Americans who. while giving up many of the things they are ac customed to having, are putting in extra time, extra money, and ex tra effort for the common good. They are the people who will win this war and keep its cost in lives and in dollars to a minimum. On the debit side we have those who would make a profit or a holi day out of the war. These though, less or unpatriotic men and women are not only unwilling to give up tbe things to which they are ac customed, but actually stay away from their jobs or go out on', strike because they want more leisure or more money Between unauthorized strikes and unwarranted absenteeism, A - merica is losing millions of man- hoars that should be devoted to the production of weapons so ur gently needed by our armed forces. Tbe great majority of tbe Ameri can people who are doing their jobs have every right to expect equal effort, from those who shirk by staving away from their work with out good or sufficient reasons, or striking for no reason at all.

He was withdrawn from the main current of British diplomacy and set to drift in South American backwaters. The spanked boy came back after a time unabashed and with a Chilean wife, Maria Teresa Diaz Salas. It was a late marriage. Sir Archibald is 60 years old now. But along with his admitted tough ness it has helped keep him out in front ever since. Pulling these days on the in creasingly tangled problem of Russo - British relations, Sir Archibald Clark Kerr has one great asset. He is more friendly with Stalin than any British am bassador before Um. Kremlin Joe sends him good Russian to bacco where previous plenipo tentiaries got semi-ultimatums to put in their pipes and smoke. The Ambassador was educated privately, but his sheltered start doesn’t seem to have handicapped him. He got into the diplomatic service 35 years ago and has repre sented Britain in Sweden, Irak, Egypt, Morocco and, as noted, in South America, taking time out for a stretch with the Scots Guards back in 1918. Before he went to Russia he had the China assign ment, where he said a good word for this country off and on because he is a notable friend of the United States. T U -HEN men like Dr. Huge L.

The doctor, speaking Tfrom the eminence of the presidency of the Institute of Aeronautical Sci ences, argues that even now the saf est way to make a long journey is by air. , He speaks with nearly youthful enthusiasm. He is only 43, a smooth faced thinker whose forehead tapers, whose chin comes to a point; a man his friends can call a pleasant-look- ing egg and mean it two ways. Pocomoke City, off the salty Chesapeake, would get into print seldom if he hadn’t been born there, and he adds luster even to Johns Hopkins university which gave him a PH. D. He is a Marylander who knew ear ly what he wanted. Before he finished his schooling he had hired out to the Federal Bureau of Standards and he has been with it ever since. He can un ravel the snarls of aerodynam ics and hydrodynamics into sim ple speed and performance al most before Boeing can set up a production line. Whenever he hasn’t anything bet ter to do he builds another wind tun nel, because he always has a few new notions to try out. Wind tunnels, he says, save life, time and cash for any man trying to build the foolproof airplane of the future. It was wind tunnel experiments which earned him the Reed award for re search in aeronautics three years back. f ) R . OTTO GEORG THIERACK doesn’t exactly say with the great Louis of France that he is the Hefs Legal (Often 1^ ut Jg Lethal) Minuteman primed to For H err H itler dinS uP any needed stat ute that isn’t already on the Reich’s books. At this time he warns, in Cologne, that justice must knuckle down before the policy of the state. His status he had declared earlier when he said, "Every Reich judge may call on me when he feels compelled to render a decision not compatible with real life. I shall then provide him with the law he needs.” Write one on the spot, if neces sary. For six months now Thierack has been Nazi minister for jus tice. He has the'power of life and death and the concentra tion camp, No one may appeal his decisions. Only Hitler may revoke them. Dresden, in placid Saxony, is his birthplace. He must have distilled a queer elixir from the town’s china and chocolates, cigarettes and post cards, to become the man he is. Some 20 years ago he was the minister of justice just for the Duchy of Saxony. But that was before he caught onto the Hitler bandwagon. Some time later, and this was in the Nazi era, he was picked to be vice-minister of the supreme court at Leipzig. Then he began to train directly for his present post. It was not long before he was appointed president of the People’s court. Tliis court tried cases involving offenses committed against the state. And there was no appeal from its ver dicts, either. The sessions were al ways held in utmost secrecy.

A SERIES OF SPECIAL ARTICLES BY THE LEADING AR CORRESPONDENTS The Ghetto In Warsaw B y T o s h a B i a l e r - (WNU Feature-Tbrougb special arrangement with Collier's Weekly) My husband, my son and I are the only persons in America to have es caped from the ghetto set up by Germany in Warsaw. The amaz ing set of circumstances by which we escaped cannot be told, because it would mean death to all who aid ed us. Of those whom we left behind, I can say little. This is the third win ter they will have passed through, and how many will survive I cannot say. There can hardly be many left now of the 600,000 that were once there. I, who lived with them through dark years, who shared their bitter fate, humbly bear witness to their martyrdom. Anything I may say or write about it is in memory of those who died, a tribute to the courage and determination of those wl)o are still living. I join with them in a prayer for a new world in which they will resume their place as free human beings. Location of the Ghetto. The ghetto, as set up by the Nazis after they took possession of War saw, included the oldest and most deteriorated sections of the city, a district that had been an eyesore for years and should have'been torn down long ago. It comprised many blocks completely destroyed by bombing, without a habitable build ing left standing. With intentional foresight, not one park, playground or public garden was included behind the high ghetto walls. There was no access to the river banks. The modem Jewish hospital, the Liberal Jewish Synagogue and the Old Peo ple’s Home were left outside. The Gennans were set on our destruction. With cold logie ' they conclnded that overcrowd ing, inadequate-housing, malnu trition and reduction to subhu man standards would save them the trouble and ammunition re- qunred to massacre half a mil lion people outright. Against this situation, the Jewish Council, a religious committee, took over the responsibility as best they could. The president was a Mr. Czerniakow, a fine man. I say-“was” advisedly, because a few weeks ago we learned that he committed sui cide when the Germaps directed him to draw up a list of 100,000 peo ple for deportation. Business With Outside World. AU business with the outside world had to be handled through the Com missar for Jews of the German gov ernment. I never saw him. He was a remote personality, but his shad ow feU deeply across our lives. A coiwt building was the only place where our world met the outside world. Here Jew and Christian were allowed to see each other for the last time. Here men terminated old partnerships started by fathers or grandfathers. Here husbands and wives met to say good-by, to see each other no more. For, the Nu remberg law has been appUed in Poland, and marriages between Jews and non-Jews had to be dis solved. We had no electricity, no radios, no telephones, no musical instru ments, no street cars. The post of fice would handle nothing but post cards, and every card was exam ined by a German censor. Our of ficial bread aUowance was five pounds per month. One morning we woke up to find a number of Jews lying dead in Kupiecka street. They had been caught outside the waU, shot down, and then the bodies thrown into the ghetto. We never knew whether they had passes or not. The Ger mans never bothered about little technicalities like . that. For our own sake and that of our families, we were always terrified at any harm coming to our jaUers. Day after day we saw friends and relatives murdered in retaliation for deeds in which they had no share, no knowledge. On one occasion a Po lish policeman had been killed while on duty. The Gestapo carried out an extensive search, in the course of which a building at 9 -Nalweki street put up a stubborn resistance for several hours. When .the defend ers were finally overcome, 53 male inhabitants of that building were dragged out and shot. Early in 1942, batches of deportees from Germany began to arrive, five or six hundred at a time. After be ing despoiled of whatever they had, they would be moved on. We were told they were to go to a “reserva tion” near Lublin. Actually, most of them left in charge of “Extermi nation Squads.” According to the stories, these squads had several ways of disposing of.their charges. One was to shut 50 or 60 of them up In a truck and then fill it with poison gas. Another was to leave them starving by the roadside. Or, simply machine-gun them.

As an indication of the times, Walter Ha gen signed as pro at St. Petersburg Cor $30,000 for the winter season— a record price. C o u n try Clubs The situation wasn’t too healthy. Golf clubs were transformed into - elaborate , country clubs. They were more like night clubs with gymnas tic facilities available upon request. Every locker held its quota of liq uid refreshments. Club officials were in an expansive frame of mind. The depression changed the pic ture. Almost all clubs were forced to retrench—some of them closed. Players didn’t have the money to spend and golfing costs became more moderate. The end of this war won't see an other era of gaudiness. Today’s players represent a truer cross sec tion of the public as a whole. More and more workers are playing the game, and they aren’t going to give it back to the playboys. Such a situation augurs well for the game. With such a huge in vestment in the sport, it would be worse than folly to allow its appeal to be narrowed. Two USGA officials —George Blossom, president, and Joe'Dey, secretary—have compiled some amazing figures for your in spection. Their figures show that a known total of 2,351,000 play Uie game on 5,209 golf courses comprising more than a half-million acres. It has been estimated that the clubs used more than 600,000 caddies. The wages paid to caddies ran more than $30,000,000 a year. These figures haven’t included the amounts paid to thousands of professionals, greens keepers and other workers needed by each course. Statistics tell only part of the sto ry. Golf has a big.advantage over any other sport. It provides exer cise for player and spectator alike. The average spectator following a big match gets fully as much exer cise as the player. His ditch-jump ing six-mile hike definitely is good for the muscles. And the gate re ceipts of the major tournaments help boost golf as big business in any man’s language. When war was declared in De cember of 1941 the investment in golf was estimated at $726,000,000. This includes land, courses, club houses, etc., and is only a part of the total outlay which runs far more than a billion dollars. Despite the huge investment, golf is no longer only a rich man’s game. It is only because it is a game for the masses that so much money has been spent on courses. Golf has been a lifesaver for thousands of men—and women—who need exer cise and relief from business com plications and worries. Miss Hazel Taylor, a member of the China Grove school faculty, spent the week-end in town the guest of Mrs. Leslie Daniel.

Thla eeltun - --er’s friend tells too tew . i by the hom eown- PLACING A GUTTER A SHEET-METAL gutter along the edge of a roof should be set far enough out from the edge to catch the - water- that runs : down from the roof; if it is too close to the edge, water will run over it, and if it is not far enough out, the water may go between the edge of the roof and the gutter. At the same time, the outer edge of the gut ter should not be higher than the slope of the roof. H it is higher, it will act as a dam to catch snow and ice. When correctly placed snow and ice will slide over it; when not cor rect, water will back against the dam and flood upward. The pool that then forms may work its way under the roofing and leak through to the inside. The sizes of the gutter and of the leader pipe, of course, should depend on the area of the roof that is to be drained. Chimney Sweats Question: The chimney in my old house sweats in the upstairs part of the hall, ruining the paper and making the wall unsightly. A con tractor advised gypsum wallboard over furring strips, with an air space between. What do you sug gest? Answer: If beads of condensation' appear on the surface of the wall, the chimney may be too large for the furnace you are using, causing a downdraft of cold air that chills the wall. Check the furnace manu facturer’s recommendation for the size of the flue. If yours is too large, reduce the size of the'opening on top of the chimney. If there is an ac cumulation of creosote that seeps through the' brickwork, your only remedy is to build a new chimney. However, if the trouble is only with condensation, the contractor’s idea may be satisfactory. Covering a Steam Boiler Question: Our steam boiler is bare to the iron, and we should like to cover it with asbestos. How should we go about it? Answer: Mix asbestos cement thoroughly in a tub or similar con tainer, using only enough water to make a workable mixture. At least two coats should be applied. Put on a one-inch first coat and a half inch second coat. Apply the- first coat with your hands or a plasterer’s trowel, leaving a rough surface. A trowel would be handy for scratch ing the surface. When the first coat is fairly dry, stretch and fasten chicken wire netting over the sur face to hold the first coat. The sec ond coat should be troweled down hard and smoothed as it dries. Spot Cleaning Question: What is the best spot remover for men’s garments? I of ten spot my suit and I don’t always want to have the entire garment cleaned merely for "a single bad spot. Answer: The kind of remover would depend on the nature of the stain; egg, coffee or ink,. for in stance, would require different treat ment than grease spots. You can get excellent preparations, even for taking out lipstick stains, at a good drugstore. Many tailors and dry cleaners can “spot” dean a suit; that is, take out a spot without cleaning the entire garment. Poplar Roots Question: I have three 12-year-old poplar trees in my yard. Their roots have grown about 30 feet to ward the house, and I am afraid they soon will cause damage to the house. I plan to cut off these long roots close to the trunk of the tree without taking them out of the ground, then drive a copper nail into the root to kill it. Do you ap prove of this idea? Answer: Cutting the large roots close to the trunk may damage the tree. To get first hand information on this question, I advise you to write to the Department of For estry at your state capital. Sticking Valve Stem Question: The radiator valves in my hot water system stick and are hard to turn. In fact, I snapped the stem of one when turning it with a pipe wrench. Can you suggest any thing? • Answer: A new packing, the kind that contains graphite, may ease the valve stems. Your local plumber should be able to supply you with it Sap Spots on Car . Question: My car had to stand out doors for some time, and sap from trees dripped down on the roof, leav ing spots. H ow canItak eoffth ese spots? Answer: You may be able to get them off by light wiping with tur pentine. If this does not work, use the well-known auto finish cleaner. Oil on Garage Floor Question: I have considerable oil drippings on the floor of'm y ga rage. How can I remove that oil? Answer: Cover the oil stains with a thick layer of dry Portland ce ment or powdered whiting, allowing to remain for several'days: 'After the powder has become' saturated with- the oil, scrape it off and re peat two or three times. Later, scrub the floor with a strong solu tion of trisodium phosphate or^wash- ing soda, about a handful to each pail of hot water. Rinse well after ward.

Letter From Sailor Boy Dear Mr. Stroad:—I want toteli von and give you my thanks for tbe pleasure I get oat of leading vour paper. Back home, when I was very yoang, my father took The Davie Record, and I would fight with my brothers to see who was go ing to get the paper first. I have been getting it in the Navy far quite a while. Ft is tbe next thing to going borne to read tbe news you have in it of all tbe loved odes back home. Tbe honesty of your paper, and that's wbat this world needs uiute of to win this war. Honesty we need—not liars and thieves, of which tbere ,are plenty. Peo ple ate going to wake up sooner or later. Out on a rough sea is not a pleasure ride That is wbat gets me; folks back borne pleasure riding on necessary gas. Not many days ago I was hope, and in Mocksville, which took a long nde on a plane to get there. I went to the ration board and asked for a few gallons of gas to use to go see my friends. The board said “no." Tbat still echoes in my ears, for outside cars were going tbis way and that way. But now I am where I don't need gas. So I am proud to say that if I don’t deserve it, I don't want it, and I bet there are a majority of boys in service that say tbe same thing. Tbere mil be a lot of waking up before this war is won. I am proud that we have some 'nice people back home. Mr. Stroud, I am giving you my tbanka and trust that you may continue to print The Record for bov8 in foreign countries to read. Notbiug could heip more than 8 good paper. Good luck and goodbye. A DAVIE SAILOR. Clarksville News. Misses Betty and Hope Driver, of Win ston-Salem. spent last week-eDd with their pareots.

Pig Bites Doctor When a dog bites a man that isn't news, but when a pig bites a doctor it’s worthy of first page posi tion along side reading matter. Dr. Garland Greene, of Fork, brought a load of. pigs to town a few days ago to have them vaccinated against cholera. One of the pigs made a break for liberty out of the car, and Dr. Greene caught the pig bv the ear when said pig bit bis index finger. With tbe price of pigs rang ing from $1 0 to $15 each, tbe doc tor didn’t propose for that pig to get away. Lonnie Sain, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ab Sain, of R. 2 , while pulling saplings with a tractor last Thurs day afternoon bad the misfortune to get his left foot badly crushed and cut, when the tractor turned over. Mr. Sain was brought to Mocksville, and carried to Davis. Hospital, Statesville, in the Walkerj Funeral Home ambulance I Letter From Nebraska Benkelman, Neb., March 21.

She sus pects, In turn, each of the goests at the Inn where she is staying. They are the Reverend Jonas DeWitt, Lily Kendall, Tbaddeus Quincy, Albion Potter, Hugh Norcross and his sister, Bessie, and Vic tor Quade, a w riter who has Just , ar rived. Judy bids for Oie church and gets it. After the auction the body of a man identified as Roddy Lane is found in a chest In the basement of the church. Hearing Aunt NelIa cry for help the guests have gone to the rescue. Now continue* with Judy s story. CHAPTER IV “Here, he’s dead!” came a muf fled wail from the vicinity of the old fish-shed. The light Mr. Quincy and I had seen earlier had vanished, but we followed the sound. Soon we found Aunt Nella tugging at the inert form of her husband, who was lying prone on a bench near the door of the shed. “Not dead—dead drunk, Mrs. Ger ry,” Hugh said. “He’ll be all right.” “Give us a hand,” Mr. Quade said. “You old fool,” said Aunt Nella, chattering. “Not you, mister. I mean Wylie.” “ ’S queer the old codger who lives in this shed hasn’t poked his head out—what with all the noise,” Lily Kendall commented. “Deaf as a' haddock,” someone said. “Why bother the old man?” Hugh called over his shoulder. “Asleep, probably. Anyway, he’ll keep till morning.” “I imagine the police will question him then,” Mr. Quade said. "Unless —aren’t there any boats here at the Head?” “I can answer that,” Lily said. “Wanted to go rowing over in the cove one day, and they said there -varn’t a boat in the place.” “Lanes used to have boats,” Aunt Nella volunteered. “Our boat—the Eleanor—leaks.” Back into the living room we all trooped. , “Is everybody at the inn here?” Victor Quade asked me. I looked around and saw Mr. De Witt, Hugh Norcross, Albion Potter, Mr. Quincy and Lily Kendall. “All but Miss Bessie Norcross, asleep upstairs, and my aunt and uncle.” Mr. Quade and Thaddeus QuSicy held a consultation. Then Mr. Quiift cy thumped for silence ,and leaned back in his chair with an eager, pleased look on his withered face. I could vow he was enjoying himself. “Mr. Quincy and I think a com mittee should be chosen to go down to the old church where Miss Jason made her—her terrifying discovery a while ago to verify it. Not that we doubt you, Miss Jason,” Victor Quade expatiated. “But, after all, you did enter that basement .alone and saw whafyou think you isaw by two flaring matches. You might have been mistaken. You did not touch that—” “No—no! But—it stuck out—all— all stiff.” He looked at me queerly. “If you’re right, that would mean rigor mortis—long enough for it and not too long afterward.” “You appear to know plenty about ■such things,” Hugh said. “If one is planning to write mys teries—” Mr. Quincy broke iii, “Wasn’t you running through the Lane estate right after dark, was it, Norcross? Judy and I called to you?” I held my breath. Hugh changed color. He looked as if he’d been caught stealing lump sugar. ‘“May have been. What of it? I went to my sister’s room and—well, she was gone. Thought she might have strolled over toward the sea and ran after her, but just then her light came on and I ran home again. Any harm in that?” He turned to me, “If I’d heard you speak I’d cer tainly have answered.” Victor Quade whispered in my ear, “Could you make a note of that?” Aloud, he said, “Such ques tions are for the police, provided Miss Jason’s right. The first thing isn’t mutual recrimination, as I see it, but a trip to the church.” Mr. Quincy’s cane -thumped. “I appoint Mr. Quade, Mr. Potter and the Reverend De Witt. Keep close together and come straight bach. We’ll wait here. Judy, got a flash light?” I made Albion Potter come with me while I found ,Unde Wylie’s, out on the shelf in the back pantry. “This kind of business makes me' sick to my stomach,” Potter said, pop-eyed. “Could we have some thing hot when we get back—^oSee or cocoa?” “Sure. I’ll make it for you.” Lily Kendall stood in the kitchen door. “Mr. Quincy says he wants his malt ed milk.” -I’M He could just wait. I went back with the flashlighl and gave it to Victor Quade. Then Lily and I re turned to the kitchen and put the kettle on. I let her slice a fresh loaf of bread and then wished I hadn't, she put such chunks of slices. We made coffee and malted milk for Mr. Quincy, and I sent up a cup to Aunt Nella. We went back to the living room to wait for the committee and talked in lowered voices. A short laugh reached us from outside. Voices, cheery. The men were coming back at last. Before they reached the steps we could hear Mr. De Witt’s admonishing boom: “—mustn’t be too hard on her—giddy young woman—imagina tion." Thaddeus Quincy’s eyes sought mine, questioningly. Then his mouth quirked and he muttered a single word. Now the committee came into the room. Jonas De Witt beamed at us as he spread his hands. “False alarm, dear friends. The young la dy's imagination got the better of her." Albion Potter nodded in agree ment. “There certainly wasn’t a— a hand sticking out of the sea chest. Or—or anything in it. Mr. Quade looked. It was quite empty.” “That’s right. Miss Jason, in that dark basement at night it’s no won der your imagination played you tricks. If you saw anything it’s not there now.” There they all sat in a circle, staring at me as if I were nuts. I stood up and said tartly, “All right, I’m glad I’m wrong. I had a day-' nightmare, I suppose. Only remem ber this: Roddy came to the Head to Albion Potter nodded in agree ment. attend the auction and wasn’t there. He engaged breakfast here and didn’t show up. There’s been no light at the castle. He did wear a square-cut diamond like the one I imagined I saw on—on a hand stick ing out of the sea chest. And the bridge was blown up!” Had they, forgotten that in the larger issue? • I could see Victor Quade’s eyes twinkle. “Maybe I imagined that, too.” I had to say it. “Maybe it wasn’t blown up at all. It just collapsed when one of your cars backfired, ac counting neatly for the noise and everything. That’s just dandy. Now hone of you will have any reason for leaving Auntie in the lurch. Shall I get the coffee?” “Please do,” Victor Quade said, looking hard at me. Lily left the room with me, highly elated at the turn of events. “Been a killer round that church I’d a-seen him,” Lily said, piling sandwiches on a tray. “I was watch ing the sunsquat, remember.” I re membered there wasn’t any sunset —just a miserable panorama of clouds and gathering fog from the sea. The sun had died at supper time, but I didn’t say anything. When I brought in the coffee, Al bion Potter was explaining to Mr.. Quincy that the committee had gone from the church to the castle, and, failing to rouse anyone there, had tried the fish shed. Both were locked and silent. That’s what had taken them so long. They’d wanted to be sure the person Judy thought she saw wasn’t hiding somewhere else— ill, maybe, or wounded. “Perhaps he’s in your trailer, Mr. Quade,” I said shortly. Lily giggled. “Yeah, how chum my! There ain’t no other place he could be less it’s in the Pirate’s Mouth.” .................Victor Quade looked blank. When he learned about that slit in the cliff he wanted to go down right away. But the rest of us forestalled him. Almost inaccessible in brighf daylight, it would be suicide at night. One had to be very careful of those tricky footholds. ,A slip, and blooey—down into the foamy depths! Moriliing would be time enough. “Who’s ,imagining now?” I ac cused him. Lily yawned. "Shucks!” she said. “Tomorrow the Rockville street de partment will fix the bridge. There won’t be any publicity to amount to beans. No murder, no pictures on the front page. Me, I’m going to bed.” . “Good idea. Ought to sleep well after our little excitement and the coffee.” Thaddeus Quincy handed me his empty malted milk glass and began to wheel himself across to his room. “Good night, alL Sweet dreams.” One by one the party followed suit, going to their respective rooms. The inn wasn’t large, having been originally, as I’ve said, a private house. Upstairs we had only five bedrooms, with two and a cubicle on the third floor. This is how we bed ded our guests: Mr. Quincy had the front room op posite the parlor on the first floor, as a special concession, as before related. Above him was the Rev. Jonas DeWitt. Across, in the oth er front bedroom, slept Lily Ken dall. Bessie Norcross’ room came directly behind hers, and then Hugh’s, a tiny one, even smaller than Albion Potter’s self-styled stu dio at the rear. Aunt Nella and Uncle Wylie oc cupied the room on the third floor directly above the Rev. Jonas De- Witt’s. My nook, next them, had two windows, sawed-off and ratify, but I could see the ocean from one and the long, curving Neck toward town from the other. Across the tiny hall was a storeroom full of oddments to delight antique collec tors, the Salvation Army and the junk man. It seemed as if Auntie never threw away a thing. She hadn’t used a butter churn for years, but there was one in the attic be side an old bustle, neatly wrapped in newspapers and marked—“Aunt Code’s bustle.” I’d never even heard of Aunt Code. Hugh Norcross had put up a tent on the lawn, where he sometimes slept on warm nights. With the inn on one side and the castle on the other and woods at the rear, it faced virtually the whole Head—a gor geous spot which he himself had se lected. I wondered if he’d sleep out tonight. He and his sister were ap parently having an argument about it in the hall. “Nothing to be afraid of,” I heard Hugh explode. But he went along upstairs just the same, the poor, henpecked brother. Victor Quade waited till they were all out of hearing. “With your per mission I’ll sleep here on the daven port tonight, I know you haven’t an extra room, but a blanket, per haps?” He couldn’t be afraid! “Of course,” I said. “You don’t mean you’re beginning to believe I didn’t imagine things.” “Go to bed and forget it. No use worrying over—” “But Fm not worrying. Are you? And—and do you always carry stacks of $20 bills?” He looked at me puzzled,' then his forehead unpuckered. “Oh, you want me to pay in advance. Is that it?” “Certainly not. I’ll get a blan ket.” If he’d sent me the auction letter he was a good actor. I came back with the blanket, and he fol lowed me around while I locked up. There were only the back and front doors. Perhaps I should have described the inn before. A narrow hallway ran down the center of the lower floor, with the parlor (so ugly!), dining room and kitchen off the left, as you enter Mr. Quincy’s room, my office and a string of down stairs lavatories off the right At the end of the kitchen was a built- on woodshed. The old bam across the drive served as a garage, work shop and storage for the Eleanor. That’s all there was to us. The cas tle, with its stables, boathouse and garage, all in one, and the eyesore of the Smedley fish shed, were the remainder of the Head. Except, of course, Mr. Quade’s trailer. A nar row beach skirted the bluff from the church to our woods below the barn, though you couldn’t see it. “I hope you’ll be comfortable,” I said to Mr. Quade. “I hope you won’t, be nervous.” - “Nervous? Well, wouldn’t you be if you felt sure something pretty terrible was going on and no one believed you?” “I believe you, Miss Jason,” he said, quietly. -“But there’s nothing to be done tonight. That’s why—why I let it slide about your seeing things. Would you feel too badfy about this Roddy Lane?” I shrugged. “Not from what I’ve heard. Broken too many hearts. But why the change of face?” “You’d be scared/to death. You’d lie awake all night and worry.” “Behaved terribly so far, haven’t I? You tell me this instant or—or I’ll scream.” Victor laughed. “It’s just this. There’s a car in the Lane garage. I peeked in the window with the flash. Green it was. That his?” “Lord, yes. And if he’d left the Hegd he’d have gone in it.” “Exactly. Having no boat Came in it, didn’t he?” I nodded and put a pillowcase over the softest sofa cushion. “Do the others know? Potter and Mr. De Witt?” “Sure they know. They must have seen it, too. But there’s something else they don’t know.” We were almost whispering. I finished making up the best bed I could on that slippery old daven port and sat down, wide-eyed. “Who at this house plays golf?” Victor demanded. (TO BE CO NTim m IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I CHOOLLcsson By HAROLD L. LUNDQUISTt D. D.Of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for A pril 4 • Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se* Iected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission.. PETEB AND JOHN BECOME DISCIPLES OF JESUS LESSON TEXT—John 1:23-42; Mark 1:16 20. GOLDEN TEXT—Jlnd Jesus said unto them. Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.—Mark 1:17. Personal faith .in Christ is the heart of Christian experience. Since persons are won by other persons it was vitally important that the Lord choose the right disciples at the very beginning of the Church. Outstand ing among the twelve disciples were Peter, and John, whose lives and letters we study during the next three months. The manner in which they became disciples is of unusual interest—and is instructive as well. We will ob serve that our Lord is working in much the same way on the Peters and Johns of our own day. They came to Him by way of I. Testimony—They Heard About Jesns (John 1:29-34, 41). John, who modestly refrains from naming himself (v. 40), heard about Jesus from John the Baptist. His testimony is notable for its pointed presentation of Christ, and its un mistakable desire that they follow Him. ' John was an important man with a vigorous message, but he rec ognized that his only real business for God was to point men to Christ. He enjoyed having men follow him, but only that he might lead them to Jesus. In doing Christian work we should learn so to bear our testimony that we may magnify Christ, and not ourselves. We must be careful to win men to Christ, and not to our selves or our cause or church. Peter was brought to Jesus by hik brother Andrew. Andrew was a qui et, modest man of whom we do not read that he preached a single ser mon. But he did do personal work (see John 6 :8, 9; 12:21, 22). He has been called “Andrew the finder.” May “his tribe” increase. We need more like him. 1 Hearing about Jesus is not enough. There must be the next step, the in dispensable personal meeting with the Lord. H. Experience—They Saw Jesus (John 1:35-39, 42). The necessity of a personal ex perience with Christ is so clearly stated in Scripture that one can only marvel that it is so neglected in many churches today. Neither John the Baptist nor, lat er, Andrew was content to tell about Jesus. They brought John and Pe ter to the Lord. John said, “Behold the Lamb of God” (v. 36); and An drew “brought him to Jesus” (v. 42). These sum up the soul-win- ner’s duty. We must bring our fam ily, our friends, yes, the stranger with whom we deal, into the pres ence of Jesus. - ■■* He will look into their eyes and into their souls and see in them all the gifts and graces which may make them useful to Him (v. 42). John was the brother of James and Peter the brother of Andrew—just two humble fishermen in the sight of men. But Jesus saw in them two of the most useful men who have ever lived. Let us give Him a chance to deal with our friends and acquaintances. Hearing and seeing are both ex cellent, but they lack, one final step —and here it is—In . Action—They Followed Jesus (John 1:40; Mark 1:16-20). First of all they followed Jesus in becoming believers oh Him as the Messiah. That experience of John’s we find in John 1:40, and of Peter’s (by inference) in verse 42. There is no salvation apart from that act of the will which follows a knowledge of Christ. In the passage in Mark we find Hina calling them to leave their secular calling as fishers of fish to follow Him and become fishers of men. Before they cduld become what He wanted them to be, they had to do something—rise up and follow Him. Their unquestioning responsejndi- cated their faith, but, more than that, it showed that they were the kind of obedient men who could be' used of the Lord. Jesus might have called Trig disciples from the learned and the mighty. But one wonders wheth er they would have been willing to respond without argument, and to learn of Him without prejudice or preconceived ideas of theology. God must often pass the mighty and the noble of this world, and call those who are foolish enough to be lieve Him and obey (read I Cor. 1:17-29). The reason is given there— “That no flesh should glory in his presence.” The glory belongs to the Lord, not to His servants. Because they did obey they be came “fishers of men.” He led them, trained'- them, encouraged them, blessed them, and used them. A disciple is a “learner,” but he is learning for a purpose. Learn ing for its own sake, as an orna ment or a selfish pleasure, is al ways a sad thing, but with the disci ple of Christ it cannot be that if he rightly knows Christ. - The disciple is to win other dis ciples. That is the very heart of' Christian witness.'

Use a sponge with a flat surface and when your ground color is dry, take a piece of board and paint on it the stippling color. Then, press the sponge on the stippling color and then on floor. In this way you transfer the pat tern of the sponge from the board to the floor. Barbara BeH Pattern No. 1752-B I signed for sizes 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 4 and 48.

The canvas cover . . . about 41 cents or 84 cents in all. Your purchases of War Bonds, or People’s Bonds, will buy many of these for our men in the Solomons or in Africa where they are badly needed.

No secret police can in the niglit whisk us away, never again to be seen by those we love.

Ntme of us can be persecuted for practicing the faith which we found at our mother’s knee. None of us can be persecuted, tor tured or killed because of the fact that an accident of fate might have made us of the same race as the Nazarene. , No American can be placed by any party or government in a regi mented vise which takes from him or her either freedom of economic opportunity or political religious lib erty. 1What would the millions of unfor tunate men, women and children in Europe give to be able to live and enjoy such a way of IifeT Wen, in this war, those are the tilings in our lives which are in jeopardy.
