T he Bible is the source of all en­ lightenm ent. T he proof of this is the fact that all nations and peoples th at are w ithout the Bible are in deep, dense heathenism ; and all nations and peoples th at possess the Bible, and have across the centureis are enlightened. However, w here a nation possesses the Bible, but w illfully refuses to heed its teach­ ings, this nation eventually goes eventually goes back into barher- ism. B ut every man and every na­ tion that possesses th e Bible, and lives according to its m arvelous teachings, is w onderfully a n d blessedly enlightened. N ot only that, bnt they are noble, godly and righteous. T here is no Book on earth that anything like equals the Bible. T his is G od’s book. I t was inspired of A lm ighty God and given to the world far exceeds any­ thing th at m an could produce. In heathen landstheyhavebooks w ritten by uninspired m en—men who know nothing of the Bibleand the tru e and living G od—bnt their books only blind them dow n in ignorance, superstitution and the power of the devil. T heir teach­ ings are m isleading, erroneous, false. T uey have no standard of ethics and more th a t can npiift and save the people. T hey point to no C hrist and living God th at can save to the utterm ost. T heir books keep them In ignorance and heath en darkness. T hey reveal no light th at is Divine. T hey tell of no Savior who died to redeem men from all sin and give them an in­ heritance am ong them that a r e sanct Ged. H ow men enlightened lands can reject the Bible, and take a stand against it, is hard to understand. H ad it now been for the blessed Bible they would have been in dense heathenism them selves. They would have been cursed w ith ignor­ ance, diseases cf the most loath­ some kind, binding and dreadful superstitions, and the awful slavery of the devil. T hey would have been living in filth, degradation, dem oralization, dire poverty, w ant and distress just as the heathen. H ow there can he atheists and' in­ fidels in Bible lands is m ore than we can understand. Surely they know th at the Bible and Christiani­ ty has lifted us out of the cnrse of Ignorance, superstition and heath enism th at oligbts th e nations of earth th at are w ithout the BiLIe.

There are said to be a total of 464,- 000 fathers subject to call under selective service. T he question of drafting these fathers affects about 30 million persons in the United States, W heeler asserts. In reply to a question he states th at he does not think an attem pt has been made to comb the country for itb e r a vailable m aterial. “ W e all know of instances here in W ashington, right under^ our noses,’’ said the M ontana senator, 'of single men, and of m arried men w ithout children, who are not only w orking and draw ing large salaries from the governm ent, but whose wives are working, yet we are told, ’These men are essential to this de­ partm ents, as if it were impossible to find others in executive depart­ m ents to fill the jobs of bureaucrats in W ashington ’’ W heeler argnes further that it was testified that 100,000 boys are becoming 18 years of age every m onth; that it wonld be impossible to equip and send overseas more th an 2,700,000 men this year, and th at next year not more than two million could be sent. If not an. other man were taken, according to the senator, approxim ately 2,300,- 000 m en, aside from casualties, wonld be left in the arm ed forces of this country. A nd there is also a bint th at the arm y is about as large now as the civilian ponnlation can supply. T he arm y aud navy, on the other hand, backed by the adm inis­ tration, m aintains th at the drafting of fathers is vital to the successful conduct of th e war.

Senator L anger of N orth D akota presented 'testim ony concerning the Sunflower W orks located at De Soto, K ansas, tbat m ust interest every A m erican taxpayer. We hold th at in cases of this kind it does not m atter w hat the motive for the charges is, so long as they are true. N or does it m atter w hether the com plaints come from a Demo cratic or a Republican source. T he case was investigated by the T ru ­ man com m ittee, and Senator F er­ guson, a member of that comm ittee, on the floor “ adm its” that “ many of the things stated by the Senator from N orth D akota are trn e.” T he Sunflower plant was to con­ sist of 3,150 buildings. T he ori­ ginal tost plus.a-fixed-fee contract called for a expenditure of 56 mil­ lion dollars, “ but expanded into a com plex net of addenda and subcon. tracts w hich Involved the expend! ture of approxim ately 120 million dollars.” One item in connection w ith the m atter involves lead pencils. Seems that the contractor bought one mil lion lead pencils at a cost of nine cents each, the kind th at is said to retail anyw here at tw o for a nickel T hat is a small sam ple of w hat the report calls a “ quagm ire of d raft.” Carloads of m aterial were left ex ­ posed to the w eather to w arp and rnst, it is alleged. Millions of pounds of concrete were defectively m ixed of substandard m aterial, so that walls cracked and crumbled and piers had to be torn down and reconstructed. T w enty tons of steel cnt and sh ped f >r tbe roof of the reservoir were buried by a buli dozer. T here are some 700 inspectors at Sunflower being paid $1,932,000 for inspection it did not get T he job of inspection degenerated into the m aking of progress reports which took about five m inutes a day by tbe admission of m any inspectors. F urther: “ One building out there. N o 4015 joined to 242 3 in a T-shaped structure, line D, nitrocotton, a bnilding w hich should have cost the Governm ent no m ore than $3,. 500, has cost $9,800. It was torn down three tim es and built four. Each tim e the structure w ent up added to the m aterial and tbe la­ bor th a t tbe taxpayers of the U nit ed States are paying for and the cost pins th at the wrongdoers are putting into their pockets.” Doors th at were bought for $4.97 each were resold to the governm ent for $to.50. One overcharge on Ce. m ent am ounted to $50 000. F orty, one thousand dollars was actually paid for laving of a w ater main after a bid of $15,000 was rejected for the same job. Col. E . E T aylor adm its in his testim ony before the T rum an com m ittee that substitn tion of substandard m aterial for substandard m aterial for standard was found in. concrete, lum ber, rock. etc.. and that the prices paid were for the standard m aterial T be report alleges further: “ W e have evidence of pay roll padding and checks issued iti t “e nam es of term inated employees and evidence of butchers, cooks barbers redcaps, elevator operators put on the roils as inspectors, steam fitters, cem ent finishers, carpenters, and plum bers and given the wages of skilled workers, which varv around $1.50 per hour, according to * the craft.” T here is m uch more, and if onlv part of the allegations are found trne, Sunflower promises to become a national scandal of first m agnitude —Statesville Daily. From A Navy Boy Seen Along Main Stieet Seattle, Wasb.. Sept. 12. Dear Hr. Stroud:—Since I’ve changed my address. I will send yon a few lines with my address. I left Whidbey Island six weeks ago. and came to this Naval Air Base in Seattle. Washington. There are a few boys here from North Carolina, bnt none that I knew before I Joined the Navy. This sure is a nice statien. I like it here, and also mv work. I don’t know when I'n be back in good old North Carolina. I was at home last November. I see in Tbe Record every week about boys being home on forloogh. There are not many sailors who write The Record, but many soldiers do. That is what I enjoy more than anything else in The Record, I hope to receive it every week. As there isn't any news I can write, I must close. Every one keep np the good work at home, and we'll keep them flying. LESTER GAITHER Let Us Pray (By Rev. Loy D Thompson) Prayer is an indispensable means of obtaining spiritual blessings. Tbe m aterial blessings of this life are be­ stowed w ithout regard to character, w hether it be good or bad. This cer tainiy should be sufficient to con­ vince us th at it is foolish to magnify worldiy possessions. We should be reminded of the fact tbat the good things of life are hot of the highest value. Ths wicked often possess in abundance the wealth of the world. But grace and pardon, love and m er­ cy, eternal life and salvation are the exclusive possession of the men and women of prayer and faith. H ear the words that are found in Job 33- “ H e shall pray unto God and he will render unto man bis righteous­ ness." Thus we see w hat prayer does for the man who Bincerely seeks God. Again in Psalm 86:5 we have these encouraging words: “ For thou Lord art good and ready to for­ give and plenteous in mercy unto them who call upon thee.” No ex­ cellence of character can compensate in any way for the w ant of prayer in a person’s life. Prayer is the instru­ m ent th at God has chosen to ' enable us to secure every real good and a- void every real evil. Tbe story is told of a poor slave woman in the W est Indies th at she was forbidden bv her hard taskm ast­ er to go to church. H er significant answer was: " I m ust tell tbe Lord that.” This brave reply softened the heart of tbe m aster and he re* lented, Even a poor ignorant and friendless outcast has tbe privi’ege of calling upon the Lord. Prayer obtains spiritual blessings. In these days of cruelty and war, when those dear to us are faeing danger and death surely we shall find in prayer com fort and solace and hope and spiritual power.

No Evideoce T he sndden term ination of the W ilkes w hiskey trial leaves too many questions unanswered. F irst and foremost am ong these questions of course is, w hat became of the 90 m issing cases of high priced whis­ key? W hen raiding officers drove up to tbe warehouse of western N orth Carolina’s leading wholesale boot, loggers, Phillip Yates, ow ner of the booze, was very co operative “ You boys will need some trucks,” he said, and forthw ith ' furnished the rolling stock. Shortly after the H quor was checked in at the W ilkes court house, there were rum ors in W ilkesboro th at th irty cases of Scotch whiskey seized from Y ates had m ysteriously disappeared. So persistent w as the street talk th at a recheck was m ade, show ing 609 cases on band. T he Scotch was- gone, and so were cases of other high-grade Gre w ater. W ho got it? W hen was it taken? N one of these questions were answered at tbe trial. W by did L t. W B. Lentz issue ao order to State H ighw ay pat- tolm en not to bother whiskey trucks. A nd if it was not tbe duty of tbe H ighw ay patrol to m ake Ii- quor seizures, w hy tbe sudden change In policy? Y ates had been one of tbe State’s largest liquor wholesalers, and for years ran his business'w ide open. T here seem­ ed to be nothing furtive, secretive about his traffic. Everybody with eyes to see and ears to hear knew where his wholesale depot and re. tail outlets were located. A t the tim e of tbe seizure, Y ates did not seem worried. H e 'helped the officer load and check the stuff, furnish tbe trucks to haul it off. T hen comes the indictm ent of SB I and H ighw ay Patrol officers and when the case comes to trial Y ates fails to show up. W hy? T he case against Scott and Lentz has been dismissed for lack of evi­ dence. Y ates is still under indict ment. W hen and if his case comes to trial, we m ay get the answer to some of these questions But we think be will plead guilty, say noth­ ing, pay his fin e- and that will be tbe end of tbe celebrated W ilkes li­ quor case.—Statesville Daily.

A year ago he had a half dozen men, a warehouse or so, a conple of trucks. Now his warehouses are all about, his trucks run in bat­ talions and he counts bis men in hundreds, even thousands. Oliver is a thin, confident West Pointer, 41 years old. He weighs a scant 145 pounds, works 11 hours a day, seven days a week and is disarmingly friendly.

He was tossed out last Christmas- tide for Kurt Zeitzler, the Nazi plug- ugly, a switch which would be paral­ leled here if General Marshall were ousted for a modern Quantrell. But now he is back, just in time to plug, if he can, the hole left by Italy’s collapse. Haider has a cheery smile and this, along with thick glasses, gives him a schoolmasterish air. Bnt he is a soldier with 40 years training, the son of a general, and in his own right a sound strategist and a bold tactician. Hitler turned him. out with a curt, "Yon may go,” after failures in Russia, but it was Hitler’s plan that failed, not Haider’s. Some people who toured pre-war Germany are fond of saying that the kindly Bavarians should not be counted among the toughest Nazis. But Haider is a Bavarian and though he was not tough enough for Hitler he left bitter memories all through the Ukraine. The big question is whether he is tongh enough to hold the re­ gion around the River Po in Northern Italy against the Allies. That is where he is expected to stand, although once again the plan is Hitler’s, not his. On his own plan he would refuse battle until the lofty barrier of the Alps stood as his first line of defense instead of worrisome- Iy at his back.

But now that Sir Cecil Hurst has been named Britain’s accuser the culprits will, at least, have the cold comfort of knowing that the shoot­ ing is entirely legal. Sir Cecil has been a lawyer for 50 years, just. For a long while he was legal advisor of the Brit­ ish foreign office and since 1929 has had a seat in The Hagne court, succeeding Charles Evan Haghes; he was elected its pres­ ident in 1933. Bnt he is no dry-as-dnst. Awtde back he was over here for some distin­ guished goings-on at Princeton. A few American* present were a mite squeamish about mentioning the remote but remembered trouble centering around the year 1776. Sir Cecil wasn’t. He eased a ticklish moment by declaring cheerfully that Britain in that distant year, or there­ abouts, had got a mighty good les­ son, one which had helped her ever ance with other colonies. Seventy-three now, Sir Cecil sup­ports the popular notion that an Englishman doesn’t tear up his roots easily. He was born in Horsham. He still has his home there, though not the same one.

HANGING MIRROR Question: How can I make a neat job of putting nails or hooks in a plastered wall, so that I can hang a couple of mirrors?Answer: Nails should not be driv­ en into plastered walls. To hang your mirrors, holes should be drilled into the plaster, wall plugs or an­ chors inserted and screws used. _A hardware store can supply you with these articles. If the mirrors are not too large and heavy you can use a sharply pointed nail, especially made for this purpose, which has a hook attached. These can be had in large or small sizes from a hard­ ware dealer. If the mirrors are very heavy, it might be better to hang them from the picture mold­ ing (if there is one), using picture wire or cord. (The wire may be hard to get.)Here is the way one of our read­ ers runs a screw into a plaster wall: "Mark the position and drill a hole about the size of the screw. Wood putty is then packed into the hole, and after hardening overnight the screw is ruff into it. This method has held a great deal of weight around my house without any fail­ ures. When you move the screws can be taken out, leaving the wall in a neat condition.”* * » PAINTING A DOOR Question: I have been. attempt­ ing a painting job on some of our doors and am making heavy weath­ er of it. The paint does not flow evenly, but streaks and blobs. What ought I to do?Answer: It is almost impossible to paint a door evenly when it is in position; it should be taken off its hinges and laid flat on boxes or sawhorses at a convenient height for working. When the door is laid flat the paint will flow evenly.• • • Storing FunUture Question: I want to store my kitchen, living and bedroom furni­ ture. Would it be all right to store it in an unheated upstairs room? Do you think the coldness would ruin the finish or warp the furni­ ture? And what effect would the cold have on the mirror of a vanity? Answer: Low temperatures will not harm the furniture;' but you should take every precaution against dampness. Before storing'the furni­ ture clean and polish it, and then cover with a heavy kraft paper to keep dust off the surfaces. The re­ frigerator should be cleaned and put away with the door partly open. Cover the bare metal parts of the stove with a light oil to prevent rusting. Jl the mirror is of good quality it will stand up under all con­ditions.• • • Insnlated Hot-Air Dncts Question: The warm-air ducts from our furnace are covered with the usual sheet asbestos. Dust clings to this surface and is very hard to remove. Can this covering be paint­ ed, to give a hard surface that can be cleaned easily? Answer: Asbestos insulating ma­ terials are very porous and, be­ cause of this, are diilicult to paint. The following method will be fairly successful: After brushing off the dust, apply a thin coat of shellac (if you can get it), thinned half- and-half with denatured alcohol. When dry, finish with a coat of brushing lacquer. If lacquer cannot be obtained, apply a coat of flat paint followed by a coat of quick- drying enamel. „ '• • • Spots on Linoleum Question: How can I remove spots from my linoleum floor?

PrlngU (W NU Fttture-Tbrough tptci*! arrttgioM t w ith ColUtPa Ww Ut.} American fliers used a new, secret end devastating method of aerial at­ tack in the Battle of the Bismarck Sea, in which 22 Jap ships were sunk, 15,000 soldiers and an un­ known number of sailors killed. Soon afterward it sank German and Italian vessels in the Medi­ terranean. On land, the new tech­ nique speeded the Axis rout in North Africa, although the details of this later triumph must still remain a secret. The Japanese never knew what hit them in the Bismarck sea; in any event all were dead, and dead men send in no intelligence reports—not even to the sun-god in Tokyo. They certainly did not know that the de­ bacle was the result of experiments at an army air forces proving ground in Florida, of painstaking research by experts of the ordnance branch of the army service forces and of combat testing in the Aleu­ tians and the South Pacific. AU that they knew was that planes —both bombers and fighters—roared in for a kill a t insanely low altitudes. They twisted and turned as they cam e in on the target. They dropped no torpedoes, so they were not tor­ pedo planes. T et they dropped something with amazing precision, and it was powerful enough to send transports and warships to the bot­ tom. What the American fliers did, it may now be told, was to use the technique which has been called skip bombing. The correct name for it is minimum altitude bombing. Usually Missed Target. Considerable inaccurate informa­ tion has been circulated about skip bombing, since details of the Bis­ marck sea battle began to leak out. Bombs dropped by an airplane fly­ ing fast at very low altitudes have always skipped—just like stone9 thrown across the millponds of our youth. Bombs from higher altitudes pointed downward, naturally, and were guided to the target by their fins. Nearer to the ground there was no time for this. The bombs maintained the line of flight. They skipped across the ground or water and back into the air. They usually missed the target. About a year ago it dawned on some officers at the Florida proving ground that this disadvantage might be turned into an asset. The fliers were not thinking about sinking Axis ships. What they wanted to do was to work out some bombing method which would stop tanks. A tank is almost invisible from thousands of feet in the air and is virtually impossible to hit. But to­ day’s fast fighter planes are projec­ tiles in themselves. It occurred to Brig. Gen. Grandison Gardner, prov­ ing ground commandant, that a plane might come in just above the ground at a very high speed, point itself at the tank and then drop a bomb. The bomb would continue to plunge forward and would, so General Gardner reasoned, hit the tank. There were bugs in the notion, as he was due to learn. One of the bugs was that the bomb sometimes skipped clean over the tank. Later, when the idea was expanded to at­ tacking ships, the bomb not in­ frequently hit the w ater and bounced, over the ship. It would be neces­ sary, General Gardner knew, to stop this skipping or to guide it. A de­ layed fuse would also have to be developed, so that the explosion woiild not wreck the attacking plane when real, instead of dummy bombs were used. Perfecting a delayed fuse for the bombs was easy enough, but keep­ ing the bombs from skipping over the target—when dropped at 10, 25, or 50 feet at 30Q miles per hour— was far more difficult. So was work­ ing out the method of sighting. The details of this, too, cannot‘yet be disclosed. This much may be said: It is so simple that a pilot in a single-seater can hit a tank, a moving ‘rain or a ship and can cor­ rect his aim at the last second. Be­ hind the method lay interminable calculations and experiments. About a year after work had started, the sew method of bombing had proved its worth beyond question. No special bombs are required.. Size can vary from 250 to 500-pound bombs for tanks; 500 to 1,000 pounds for unarmored m erchant vessels; and up to 1,000 and 2,000 pounders for battleships. Moreover, almost any type of plane will do except those that are heavy and slow. Mortality, thus far, has been ex­ tremely low because the attacking plane can shift its course at will until three seconds before releasing the bomb. Moreover, the pilot is flying so low that larger anti-air- . craft guns, difficult to depress, can­ not hit him at the range involved. By VIRGINIA VALEReleased Iv Western Newspaper Onion. Bob HAWK, CBS quipmaster of “Thanks to the Yanks," manages to spend at least two nights a week performing for men in the armed services. When a camp calls for a show Hawk sends out a call to his many friends in the entertainment world and immediately a well- rounded show of varied acts organ­izes to help “Thanks to the Yanks.” Bob, who taught junior high school English when he was 18, has broad­cast everything from grand opera to wrestling matches — says his toughest assignment was giving a hole-by-hole description of a minia­ ture golf tournament. He’s never done better work than he’s doing now for the men in the service. Just 11 years ago Lucille Ball went to Hollywood as a show girl, to appear in Eddie Cantor’s “Roman Scandals,” along with 11 others. You’ll see her, as a show girl, in LDCILLE b a l l “Meet the People” ; she’s climbed dear to the top of the ladder in the meantime. Right now people are crowding to see her in “Du Barry Was a Lady.” She’s the only one of the original twelve who’s still in pictures. — * — Those American Youth Hostels that have become so popular get their innings in “Song of the Open Road,” for which Sammy Kaye and his orchestra have been signed. Red­headed Peggy O’Neill makes her debut in the starring role. Leatrice Joy Gilbert has been un­ der contract to M etro for some tim e, but it’s only now that she’s going to get her chance—a role in “Kism et.” She worked in sum m er stock last season, and if there’s anything in heredity this daughter of Leatrice Joy and the late Jack Gil­ bert certainly ought to go far as an actress. H er father was one of M etro's big stars for years. Some clever lad at MGM is com­ posing a new song for Lena Horne, who will wow audiences everywhere, the studio predicts, in “I Dood It,” the Red Skelton-Eleanor Powell pic­ ture. The song is called, we’re , told, “Moonlight Sinatra.” One photograph of Renee Terry of CBS’s “Bright Horizons,” inspired 341 proposals of marriage imme­ diately after it appeared in a New York newspaper. It showed her in her Nurses Aide uniform, feeding a baby in the children’s ward of a hospital. — * — Frank Sinatra seem s to like Holly­ wood and picture-making; he’s go­ ing back in November to m ake “ Mr. Cinderella*' .for RKO, and they do say that the story of the picture is pretty much the story of Uie young m an’s life. When Bob Hope got back from that trip that took him to England, Africa, Sicily and Iceland he wasn’t sure whether he’d be able to return to the air September 21 or not— said Bing Crosby would pinch hit for him if he couldn’t. He was pret­ty tired, but forgot that when he talked about his trip. “The greatest thing that ever happened to me,” said he. And “Believe me, the pro­ grams we do from the States are going to mean more than ever to us now that we know what they mean to the men.” Last season hundreds of service men had to be turned away from the Edgar Bergen-Charlie McCarthy shows because of lack of room. This year Bergen will put on a pre­ view of the show, just as it goes on the air, plus added entertainment by Songstress Dale Evans and the cast, for service men on furlough in the Los Angeles area.

Plan DaytS Meals Using Basic Seven As Your Guide Utilize a little hit of meat with vegetables and tuck under a flavor­ ful, flaky piecrust and serve the family a meat pie. All vegetables and meat are served in one cas­serole and save serving dishes. Is there a blueprint or plan for making menus? That’s a question homemakers fre­ quently put to the food experts. Yes, there is. Suppose you are given a list of foods to be included in your daily diets, a sort of general plan that you can adapt to every day’s needs. Can you make out your menus? Here is the blue­ print: Group I. Green and yellow vege­ tables. At least one of each kind should be included daily to meet vitamin and mineral requirements of the diet. Group D. At least one serving of oranges, grapefruit or tomatoes to get enough Vitamin C in the diet. A good time to get this requirement in is during breakfast—with the fruit. Group m . Potatoes or other fruit and vegetables to add more min­ erals and vitamins to the diet.Group IV. Milk or milk products. This may be in the form of milk (I pint per day for adults, I quart for children), fresh or evaporated, and cheese. Group V. Meat, poultry, fish, eggs or dried beans, peas, nuts or pea­ nut butter. This group is needed to build and repair body tissue.Group VI. Bread, flour and ce­ reals are required to meet energy needs and the vi- tamin B needs of the body. Be sure that any of these that you use are whole-grain, en­ riched or re­ stored. You would have to eat four times as much ordinary bread, for example, to get as much nutritional value as one loaf of enriched bread contains. ’ Group VII. Butter or fortified mar­ garine. Use some of either every day to give energy and vitamin A. That’s the pltn. Use food out of every group, every day. The best way to divide the groups into three balanced meals will run something like this: For breakfast: Citrus fruit, cereal, eggs, milk or beverage, toast. For lunch or dinner: Meat (poul­ try or fish, etc.), vegetable in ei­ther group I or m , milk or milk products. For dinner or supper: Meat, poul­ try or fish, vegetable or fruit from groups I, H, or IH. Milk or milk product, and also bread and butter from groups VI and VII. An easy way to plan the menus is to write down the foods and the cor­ responding number of the group of food from which it comes. If you do not use one or two of the groups during one meal, pick them up at the next. No chance for slips, herel Keep one eye on the plan and the other on the ration books whilq do- Lynn Says: W hat they do: The basic seven food requirements are so made up as to take care of the body’s demand for certain types of food. For example, proteins, miner­ als and water are all essential to building torn parts of the body and keeping them in repair. They are needed for tissues, bones, muscles, blood and other fluids. Energy for breathing, heart ac­ tion, circulation of the blood, and other bodily functions is supplied by fuel foods—foods rich in fats and sugar. To keep up the body’s resist­ ance to disease, to keep it in good running order, is the function of regulation and protective foods— these are the vitamins, minerals, water and roughage.

REVERENCE FOB GOD LESSON TEXT—Exodus 30:3-7; UatOicw 4:10: 6:9;. Jelrn 4:23. 24. GOLDEN TEXT—G od is a Spirit: and they th at worship him m ust w orship him In spirit and in truth.—John 4:24. The first three commandments bring man into the presence of God, where he is taught how to worship God in spirit and in truth. “The first commandment (Exod. 20:3) bids us worship God exclusive­ ly; the second (w . 4-6) bids us worship Him spiritually. The first commandment forbids us to wor­ ship false gods; the second'forbids us to worship the true God under false forms” (Farrar). The third commandment (v. 7) indicates that true worship will deal reverently with the name of God. Israel had lived among the Egyp­ tians, a people known for their wor­ ship of images, and were about to enter into Canaan where there were many false gods. The Lord was therefore careful not only to forbid the worship of other gods, but also to forbid the making of images of any kind, whether they represented the many gods of heathendom, or were attempts to symbolize the true God. I. The Command to W ordiip (Exod. 20:3-7). God first claims the entire devo­ tion of man. If He is Jehovah, the Lord God, it is obvious that there can be no other god before Him. He is a personal God (v. 2) with whom it is possible for man to have fellow­ ship. He must come first in our thought and our love. The second commandment ex­ pressly forbids idolatry in any form. The injunction is twofold. (I) Men are forbidden to make any material likeness which to them represents a being to be worshiped. It matters not whether it be an image or what men believe God to be like, or the image of an angelic being, a heav­ enly body, in fact, .“anything that is in the heaven above,” or on the earth—such as a man or animal; or under the water—such as a fish. (2) If such objects have been made ei­ ther by ourselves or others we may not bow down to them, nor render any service to them. Let us all ex­ amine our religious ceremonies and practices in the light of God’s com­ mandment.Observe that obedience to this command brings rich blessing to "thousands” (v. 6), whereas disobe­ dience is a curse not only to the man who disobeys, but also to his descendants. The careless, vain or irreverent use of God’s name is forbidden (v. 7). How common that practice is today, even among Christian people. If we do not actually use His name, we use some slang expression which stands for His name. Now we turn to two passages from the Gospel of Matthew to see how Jesus practiced these command­ ments. H. The Example of Christ (Matt. 4:10; 6:9). To the temptation of Satan, offer­ ing rich reward for an act of wor­ ship to himself, Jesus gave pnrinpt and effective reply by quoting Deu­ teronomy 6:13. Thus He gave His approval to the command that all our worship and service is to be given to God. This spirit shows itself m the rev­ erent devotion of the prayer (6:9) which Jesus taught His disciples.' The name of God is to be hallowed— that is, to be regarded as holy. No one set a higher example of that than our Lord. Himself God, He was obedient to the Father, even unto death, always doing those things which pleased Him and hon­ ored His name (John 8:29; Phil. 2:8). III. The M anner of True Worship (John 4:23, 24). God is to be worshiped in sprit and ip truth, not in dead formalism or by empty ritual. There must be reality in such devotion. One would suppose that a truth so obvious and vital would long since have completely saturated the life ot the church as well as of the in­ dividual believer. ‘‘God is a Spirit, and they that worship him must wor­ ship him in spirit and in truth.” Even today, countless men and women still believe'that worship has something to do with place (w . 20, 21) or race (v. 22) or some other external device or formula. WKtt a pity, when me gracious and delight­ ful Way. to worship is. through per­ sonal spiritual communion betweeif God and man. Deadening'formalism is not our; only enemy. There is the powerless preachment of modernism—and in all honesty must we not .admit that even some, so-called fundamentalism has in many respects lost the truje spirit of the faith for which it rightly contends. We see then that the command^ ment of God regarding reverence Hf not just a law on a faded page in an ancient manuscript. ^ It is a liv« ing, vital reality,., operative - today.- ON THE !E FRONTj A LONG m irror with a table at- ^ each side m akes an ideal) place to dress.

Pope, Mess Sergeant of Headquarters Battery and mas­ ter of all he surveys (so long as he stays in the kitchen), strolled past our table like a happy night-club owner inspecting his saloon. Photographer Bushemi lifted a forkful of creamed potatoes to his mouth, made a sour face and insert­ ed the potatoes as if they were sea­ soned with liniment. Don Bishop, the public relations reporter who sometimes shows a streak of sheer sanity, lifted his coffee, held his nose and drank it. “Sergeant Pope,” I said in a small voice, “earlier in the course of this supper I told you that I had never tasted anything harder or drier than the bread you served us tonight. I want to take that back, Pope. When I said that, I hadn’t tasted your peanut butter.” “You’re the only ones I ever hear griping about the chow in this bat­ tery,” said Pope. “You’re the only ones I ever have trouble with. You three and Mulvehill. If I’ll pay for your food, won’t you please take all your meals at the Service Club?” “Let’s leave Mulvehill’s name out of this,” I said. “Poor, poor, old Mulvehill. We knew him well. He was a good boy, was the Lieuthom- as." “I noticed the place is so quiet to­ night that you can even hear Bu- shemi eating his celery,” said the sergeant. “Where is your dear friend Mulvehill, the bum?” “You have run him over the hill,” said Bishop. “Your food and your mess hall and your brutishly foul mouth have driven him away. He has deserted from the Army and his guilt is upon your hands.” “You know the one thing that’s missing from this meal—the one thing that would make it perfect?” asked Bushemi. “Ice cream?” asked the mess ser­ geant. "Chloroform,” said Bushemi. Pope slapped his forehead might­ ily. “Why couldn’t I have been a dud-picker, a horse valet, a suicide submarineman — anything but a mess sergeant? Where is Mulve- hill?” He wrinkled his forehead. "Say! He wasn’t here at break­ fast either.” “Nor lunch,” said Bishop. “Nor supper, nor lunch, nor breakfast yes­ terday.” "He has gone over the hill,” I said, gloomily. “He has deserted.” "Let’s see,” said the sergeant. “He wasn’t here all day today and he didn’t come in yesterday and he didn’t show up for supper the night before last. Is he sick?” "He would have been,” said Bish­ op, “if he hadn’t got a decent meal soon.” “I can remember Mulvehill just like he was right here with us even now,” I said. “He was a fine, no­ ble, sensitive lad. He had a beauti­ ful career before him in the Army. Fate can ruin any of us by tossing in the tiniest little monkey wrench—or the toughest little biscuit. I hated to see Mulvehill go over the hill.” “Cut the clowning,” the sergeant wailed, convinced at last that Mulve­ hill had flown. “You can’t make me think that he left because of my food. Where is he?” "That,” sighed Bishop, “is what the War Department would like to know.” Pope began drumming unconsci­ ously on the table. “I know my food is as good as any in the Center. That ain’t it. Did he take offense at something I said to him and start eating at the Service Club?” Acton Dennington Hawkins the Third, chief cook, passed hy. “Where’s your friend Mulvehill?” he asked us. “Oh,” said Bushemi, forgetting the play, “Mulvehill’s on furlough.” The mess sergeant rose \$ith a roar. “The day shall come!” he screamed. “You’ll all be on KP one of these days! Oh, will you juffer and will I enjoy myself! Finish your supper and get out of my mess hall! Get out! GET OUT!” - B b - "As if I didn’t have enough trou­ ble on my hands with payday,'* said Top Sergeant Tate, “now I have to be exposed to the sight of you. Be brief.” “Sergeant,” I began, “when I hear people say a soldier can’t live on the pay he makes, I’d like to show them myself as a living proof that he can.” “Quit beating your gums,” he said, “and get to the point. You didn’t come in here to compliment the Army on its pay. And take your cap off when you’re in the orderly room." “I didn't come to compliment no­ body nor nothing,” I said, laying my cap on the corner of his desk. "I just came In to see if the War De­partment is mad at me. They haven’t given me a cent of salary since the first of October.” “What In the sweet name of heav­ en are you talking about?” the top kick hooted, handing me back the cap. “We've had two regular pay­ days, including fee one today. And we’ve had two supplementary pay­ rolls for people who missed fee reg­ ular paydays.” “Mind you,” I put In, “I’m not complaining. I eat regularly and I have a roof over my head. I can get haircuts and movie tickets and cigarettes and shoe polish on credit, but I certainly would like a little cash spending money from time to time.” “Well,” he gToaned, slapping his desk wearily, “ here we go again, Hargrove, fee" boy who makes a top kick’s life exciting! Hargrove the hopeless—the sloppy bunk on in­ spection day, the soap in-the soup, the thorn in the side. Hargrove, the boy who can take the simplest problem and reduce it to its most confusing form. Now let’s start at the beginning and take the whole thing slowly. You haven’t been paid since October first. How come?” “That was because when the No­ vember first payday came around, I had just got here. I signed fee October payroll in my old battery.” “All right;” he said patiently, counting off a finger. “That’s one payday. That brings us up to No­ vember tenth, the day of the supple­ mentary payroll, when you should have got the pay you missed on the first. Did you sign the supple­ mentary payroll for that occasion?” “Yes, sir,” I insisted. “Then when the supplementary payday came around, something happened. Or to be more correct, nothing happened. I still didn’t get paid.” “That’s two paydays you missed,” the sergeant sighed. “I will check into the second later. Now—what about today’s pay?” “I missed out on that one teo. The battery commander couldn’t find my signature on the payroll.” He patted me on both shoulders, a little heavily, and I cowered. “Wait just a minute, Private Har­grove,” he said sweetly. “Let sar- gie-wargie see what he can find out about the nasty old payroll.” He returned in a few minutes, frowning wearily. “Private Har­ grove,” he sighed, “dear Private Hargrove! You didn’t draw your pay on the tenth of November be­ cause you weren’t here on the tenth! You were on furlough! And you didn’t sign the payrpD for today be­ cause you were on'furlough while it was beIRg signed. Your modest pay 4 “Wait just a minute, Private Har­ grove,” he said sweetly, “Let sar- gie-wargie see what he can find out about our nasty payroll.” for October has been in the battery safe for three weeks, just waiting for you to get around to picking it up.”He took a small envelope from be­ hind his back. “Twenty-one dollars for services rendered through the month of October. Harrumph! Mi­ nus two-forty for theater tickets, mi­ nus a dollar for haircuts, minus seven dollars for canteen checks. Private Hargrove, I present to you your October wages—ten dollars and sixty cents!” I took the money, looked at it ten­ derly, and crammed it into my pocket. Winter; at last, is upon us, in the rear ranks, the surest indication is to be found in reveille. AU through fee late summer and the fall, we hopped out of bed as soon as the whistle blew. Now we crawl grumblingly out when the ser­geant puts the whistle to his lips for a “fall out!” blast. Since it is still dark when we stand reveiUe, and since we are aided occasionally by a heaven-sent fog, there are many sa­ viors of democracy who slip on merely a pair of shoes (partiaUy laced), a pair of trousers, and a field jacket The field jacket, when buttoned aU the way to the collar, hides the absence of shirt and tie —and fee sergeant is none the wiser. 'In Headquarters Battery, the process of getting up in the morn­ ing has sunk into a rut of repetition. It’s the same procedure every morn­ ing.Sergeant Roughton, platoon lead­ er, toots his brass at six o’clock and a few energetic soldiers at the other end of the squadroom rise and begin the morning with sicken- ingly cheerful horseplay. They yank the covers off-their neighbors. The _ W .N .U .M nvics neighbors yank the covers-back on. Private First Class Bishop, un­ official guardian of fee pubUc rela­ tions staff, rises from his bunk which is next to mine. “Hargrove! Bushe­ mi! Get up! Salute the mom!” Then he yeUs down fee length of the squadroom to fee bed of Private First Class Thomas (“Thoss”) Mul­vehill. MulvehUl, every morning, has al­ ready been forcibly ejected from his bed by his wild neighbors. He is, by this time, sitting on fee edge of his bunk, with his great head sunk between his knees and his fingers fumbling with his shoelaces. In a thick and fiery Irish brogue, he is berating whatever forces of destiny put him in this mad comer of fee squadroom. I stick a cautious toe out from un­ der the covers. The outer air isn’t cold but, then again, it isn’t warm. I roll over and lode at fee next “Git out of there or I’ll dump you out.” bunk, where. Private Bushemi is snoring gently. I roll back, get com­fortable, and pull the cover over my head. “Hargrove!” roars Bishop. “Get your lazy bones out of bed! It’s five after six!” “Call me at ten after six,” I mut­ ter. “Better still just sing out when my name is called at reveille.” Private Bishop reaches over sud­ denly and rips the blankets from the bunk. I rise, cursing him sound­ ly. Private Bushemi is still sleep­ ing, with a sweet and childish smile on his face. I lift a foot and give him a firm shove in the posterior. “Git out of there, you blankerty- blanked dash-dash, shiftless, 'good- for-nothing bum!” I shout, giving him two'or three more shoves. “Git out of there or I’ll dump you out!” I reach over and grab the edge of Bushemi’s bunk. I joggle it slight­ ly to give the impression that I am just about to overturn the bunk. Bushemi bounces out of bed, spring­ ing wildly. “You’re going to get funny just one morning too often, and I’m going to beat the eternal perdition out of both of you. It’s getting to the point where it ain’t funny.” Then he begins mumbling aimlessly under his breath as he steps into his trousers. Somehow, we manage to get into the second shoe just as fee whistle blows to call us outside. We shiv­ er in the dark cold as section lead­ ers call the roll, mostly from mem­ ory. The second section of the first platoon is always the last to finish roll call. We stand there listening. “P-o-g-g-i!” “Hyoh!” “Pulver!” “Here!” and then fee piece de re- sistence: “Peacock!” Always the answer comes in fee same way—an unbelievably deep bass, long-drawn- out and rumbling: “Heeeeeeere!” The second platoon snickers and tit­ ters, just as it did the day before, and the top kick shouts, "Dis­ missed!” Bushemi heads straight back for his bunk. “Call me at chowtime, will you?” - I f e - Bill, a friend of Bushemi’s and mine in Charlotte, drives a street bus.. Before he began bis service as a driver, he served a hitch in the Army. Like all ex-service men, he’s ready to drop everything and just shoot fee breeze any time th* conversation turns to the Army. “There was a young first-class private got on my bus last week,” he told me, "and he sat in tot long seat behind' me, so we got started talking. Well, I thought I’d snow him under, telling him about the time I was in fee Army. So, just to start the ball rolling and get the talk turned to the Army, I asked him how long he’d been in. - “ ‘Oh, Tve been* in for well over eight months,’ he said, like he wad just starting his thirtieth year of service. Then He started wiping his sleeves so I’d be sure to notice his private-first-class stripe. “I thought I’d let him blow off about his stripe, so I asked him, ‘Say, what does that stripe stand for?’ “ ‘Oh, that,’ he said, as much as to say aw-shucks-that-ain’t-nothing. That just means I’m a sergeant.' “ ‘Is that right?’ I asked him looking sort of widemouthed at him “ ‘Yessir,’ he said, real casual, ‘in the Army only eight months and I’ve already been made sergeant.’ “ ‘Well, tell me,’ I said, ‘what grade of sergeant are you? I’v* seen some sergeants have threi stripes and then I’ve seen them haVf as many as six. How come tori? (TO BE CONTINUED) BnIeased h r W estern New spaper Union. FRANKIE StNKWICH, fee No. I 1 college football player of 1942, has brought 'considerable happiness to the National Football league. In signing with the Detroit Lions, Frankie will bring many an added dollar to the Defroit clubs and to every other team in the eircnit. The Lions had no “name” player on their squad at the time—and they needed one at least for fee early part of the season. Sinkwich recently was given an honorable discharge from the ma­ rines after serving since the first of the year. He was given a medical, discharge after spending’ some time in the hospital at Parris Island, S. C. Sinkwich was the most publicized college gridder of the 1941 and 1942 seasons. His name on the roster will draw thousands of cash custom­ ers who haven’t paid a great deal of attention to the Lions during the past. The 1942 Season The Lions, who finished last in the league last season, losing all 11 league games,, were privileged- to take first pick in the annual college draft, which was held last June in Chicago. Sinkwich may not have what it takes to be a standout professional player. There have been plenty of big names in college ranks who failed in their professional careers. Tn fact, most of the top professional teams consist of individuals who never bothered going to college. They figured, and quite logically, that a college degree wasn’t at all necessary to success on the profes­ sional circuit. But chances are good that Frankie will become a valuable asset to the unfortunate Lions. Any team that loses all of its season’s games can use very handily the services of a name player. He may not do so much toward improving the team’s league standing, but he should help the treasury. And when a player helps one club, he helps the entire league. « • » The World Series Just a year ago the New York Yankees were quite firm in their statements that they could do better in Sportsman’s park in St. Louis than in their own stadium. Now jo e McCarthy Manager Joe McCarthy’s men are even happier over fee 1943 World Series schedule, which calls for them to play the first three games in Yankee Stadium. The Yankee players—and the New York fans—think the schedule gives fee American leaguers a big advan­ tage over the St. Louis Cardinals. But' the bookibs aren’t influenced by intangibles and are hesitant about laying a price on the series. They won’t concede the Yanks very much, if anything, because of the so-called “favorable” schedule, and chances are good the odds will be 8-5, take your choice. Remaining Schedule The fact that the first three games are going to be played at home isn’t as important as the remainder of the schedule. It calls for a two-day travel intermission between the New York and the St. Louis games, and another open date for selling tick­ ets if there is a seventh game. This schedule means that Spud Chandler, the Yankees’ mound ace, will be able to work at least twice and perhaps three times. Chandler won 19 games and lost only three, and is certain to draw fee opening assignment from'McCarthy on Octo­ ber 5. After four days’ rest he will be able to start the first game in St. Louis, on Sunday, October 10, Then, if fee series goes the limit, he could take another three-day rest before coming back for the final game. Then there’s big Ernie Bonham, who has won 13 and lost seven. He can be used twice, and Hank Borowy or Rookie Charley Wensloff can be called upon to fill in on the mound when needed. The schedule works both ways, of course. The Cardinals have the same amount of time for rest, etc. They will' have the opportunity to use Mort Cooper two or three times, but on the basis of past perform­ ance against the Yankees and other junior circuit hitters, it is doubtful it Manager Rilly Sonthworth figures this balances the books.

This is the microfilm method of transmitting letters, !mown to all of us as V-maiL Any news from home Is bound to please our .soldiers and our sailors but the news they want to have most is the news from our produc­ tion front and news that we are win­ning our fight against inflation by our savings and investment in War Bonds.

C I t is bard to understand just w hy men live for the devil. W e know th at every blessing we receive is from G od, while the devil never blesses us w ith anything in life, bu t curses us w ith all th at is bad, yet the vast m ultitude of men go on and serve him through life. Every ray of sunshine, every drop of w ater, every breath of air, every morsel or food, every garm ­ ent we have w ith w hich to clothe our bodies, and all the health we possess, and everything good we possess and enjoy is a blessing from our loving heavenly F ather; and all the aches and pains, sorrows and sighs,, disappointm ents and dis­ couragem ents, destructiveness and dam nation, and all th at m akes us miserable, and all th at wrecks lives and hom es and nations is caused by the devil. N ow , dear m a n ,' can you tell m e w hy yon serve th e dev­ il, live for him and let him have your tim e and talent, your m oney, strength and power instead of God? I t looks like the common sense and reasonable thing for every m an would be to bate the devil, turn a- wav Irom him and to m to God and Itve to do H is will. JWe see men th a t are absolutely down in life, down under the devil’s heels, and and cursed and blighted in body, m ind, soul and spirit, and yet they go right on serving him , living for him daily, and continve to follow w here he leads, T hey let him put them into prison, get them into all kinds of trouble, and w aste their tim e and squander their money, yet they seem to be satisfied to go right on In his dam nable service end be cursed m ore and more. T h e devil will m ake m en sick, take their health aw ay trom them , and rob them of their m oney, and wreck them soul and body, and yet they won’t break ranks w ith him , W h y o n earth is it? T t looks like everybody would turn aw ay from the devil and turn unto God when they realize how mean the devil is, and bow m uch they are suffering because tttey are his slaves. But, sir, they let this hellish being lead them aw ay from all that is good, from all th at m akes life beautiful, peaceful, happy, blessed and w orth while, aod lead them right on to the blackest hell w here they shall suffer eternal torm ent It is bard to understand. Just w hy do you live for and serve the devil? Union Dues For Soldiers Speaking at the N ew Jersey State Fair, H erbert W .

Political Straws In The Wind In Novem ber, 1942, while tbe G allup polls, the N ew Dealers and some “ experts” were predicting either slight gains, or even losses, in Congress for tbe Republicans, the people rose up and alm ost sw eat tb e New Deal out of control of the H ouse. Forty-tw o new seats were gained by the R epubli­ can P arty. A t the sam e tim e, the voters elected six new Republican gover. nors to bring the total to 24, pie siding over 60.3 per cent of the population. Since last N ovem ber, tbe C ity of Baltim ore elected a Republican m ayor for tbe first tim e since the twenties. M ichigan voters completed the job of sweeping all New Dealers out of state offices.

Who’s News This Week By ~ Delos Wheeler Lovelace Consolidated Features.—WNU Release. EW YORK.—In any newspaper shop you can always get an argument, of no interest to laymen, about the value of schools of journal- This Realist WUl DishUsBadNews Some say, As Well as Good “No!” with asterisks. The yes-men currently have an Ex­ hibit A. This is placid, sober Palmer Hoyt, domestic director oi the Office of War Information, who has wangled the army and navy into a corner from which, it seems, they will have to give out faster, whether news is good or bad-. Hoyt went to a school of jour­ nalism and in 12 years rose on the excellent Portland Oregon- - ian to be its publisher. He rose from copy reader. Back in 1922 Hoyt was a sports correspondent and a student. He was also just married, brave fellow! Matrimony and matriculation at the University of Oregon had followed a stretch in the AEP. There he had shrewdly sidestepped a lieutenant’s bars which were not so hard to get, for a sergeant major’s chevrons. When the school of journalism had done its best he went on to the Oregonian and zoomed. By 1938 he had that publisher post, plus two sons, and lots of influ­ ence in Sigma Delta Chi. Amer­ icans, he believes, can take bad news witb good. He means to give it to them, whichever. P E N . DWIGHTD. EISENHOWER pauses briefly to pin decorations on two of' his top aviation officers, and' lean, taciturn and hard-bitten AgainWeHonor I ^ a ! Chief of Our Air Spaatz finds Force in Europe WmseU with a new honor for his collection, that of the Legion of Merit. He already had the DSC and the DFC. He won the DSC during World War I when he was a major in the 31st aero squadron of the AEF. In September, 1918, after a tour of duty as an instructor in the American Aviation school at Issoudon, France, he was or­ dered back to the United States. Before he left, he wanted one last whack at the Germans and he got it. Ina terrificairbattle over St. Mihiel he brought down three enemy planes. The dec­ oration followed. He obtained -the DFC through a peacetime exploit. Back in 1929 when endurance flights were . in vogue, he kept his plane, the Ques­ tion Mark, aloft over Los Angeles just a few hours short of a full week. General Spaatz has been flying ever since 1916, just two years after he was commissioned at West Point. He spent those two years with the infantry out in Hawaii. After World War I he was made head of Kelly Field, Texas. He has gained rank as he went along. He is 52. His latest award is for the or­ ganization work be did as chief of the American • - force in the European theater, a post which he was assigned in July, 1912. The Germans of late have been learning to their horror jusf what a swell job that was. EN. SERGEJ INGR, command- er-in-chief of the Czechoslovak army, has a broad, kindly face with sad eyes. Yet in his broadcast to CzechArmyChief ^ ndho“ *e Utters Fierce Old cries: “Beat HussiteBattleCry them, kill them, leave none alive!” Referring to the com­ing day of uprising he says, “Ev­ eryone should look around now for the most appropriate weapon to harm the Germans most. If there is no firearm at hand, any other kind cf weapon that cuts, stabs or hits should be prepared and hidden.” The general’s career makes his righteous wrath sufficiently plain and quite understandable. Bom in Moravia, into Austrian oppression, .Ingr began fighting Germans in the First World war. He was a lad of 20 when he fled from Austria to enlist In the Serbian division at Odessa, Rus­sia, Later he joined the Czecho­ slovak army, organized In Rus­sia, and received the rank of a lieutenant of infantry. After Russia faded oct in 1917, he found his way to France .and served as company commander in a Czechoslovak regiment there. He was 24 when the happy year . 1918 brought his country its freedom.

Food and'pleasant con­ versation shared with friends make the long, cool nights, and work- filled days easier to share. Plan soon to have some­ one over for you can do it with to­ddy’s recipes without stretching the ration or budget book out of joint. Dishes should be hearty enough to satisfy any man-sized appetites you encounter, but pretty enough to draw compliments, too. Have things easy to fix so that you can have plenty of time to take part in the social activities of the evening. Enlist the help of the children in setting up the tables, polishing sil­ verware and glasses. They’ll like doing it and it will ease the load on you. Baked beans are grand for fall entertaining and they really make those points go a long way. They certainly answer the need for hearti­ness to satisfy appetites fanned by Ihe coolness in the air, and when served in attractive casseroles with gay table background, they answer the beauty requirement. If you make the beans yourself, a little pork goes a long way when it travels with other such savory foods as mustard, molasses, brown sugar, tomato sauce and vinegar. ♦Home Baked Beans. (Serves 6 to 8) Z cups navy beans H pound fat salt pork IM teaspoons salt !4 cap brown sugar Yi teaspoon, dry mustard 2 tablespoons molasses I small onion, quartered H cop catsup, if desired water Cook Wash beans. Cover with end soak them overnight, slowly until tbe skins burst or un­til just tender. Drain, reserving liquor. Place half the beans in bean pot . or casserole.Bury a slice of pork in beans and another slice in the remaining ingredients. Add re­ maining beans and seasonings. Place remaining salt pork over the top. Cover with bean liquor. Cover and bake in a slow oven (250 to 300 de­ grees) 6 to 8 hours. If necessary, add more liquid. Individual bean pots make serv­ ing simpler. The beans may be baked in small pots, or, if desired, baked in a large pot, ladled out into small pots before serving. Relax your taut nerves and forget war worries by serving a delicious decaffeinated coffee—hot or cold. If making the coffee in a percolator, it needs slightly longer to bring out the full, rich coffee flavor. Boston brown bread is the tradi­tional accompaniment for baked beans. Slice it very thin, spread with butter or cream cheese, which­ever suits your palate best. Lynn Says: Point Savers: Discarding left­ overs , is waste, for they can make many a meal, and a nice one. Use leftover meats or poul­try and a combination of vegeta­ bles, and tuck that under a flaky pie-crust for a wonderful meat saver. Remember pie crust is packed with energy value because of the shortening. Try high quality shortening for making pastry. It is fresh and sweet, doesn’t have to be kept in the refrigerator and is of a nice texture to blend with flour. To roll pie dough thin, cover board with a heavy muslin, and rolling pin with a child’s white sock.

JESUS AND THE SABBATH 7 LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:8-11; Isaiah 68:13, 14; 'Uaric 2:234:$, GOLDEN TEXT—And he said unto them. Ibe sabbath was made for man. and sot man for the sabbath.—Bburk 2:27. The sabbath was essentially a day of rest and worship; hence the prin­ciples. which surrounded it and di­ rected its life may be applied to our day of rest, which is the first day of the week—the Lord’s day. Th^t word “rest” sounds a little strange in this busy world of ours, and yet it is an important one. It means quiet for the struggling, one, calm for the troubled, repose for the weary, tranquility for the dis­ turbed, cessation of labor for the worn-out one. God in His infinite wisdom saw that without rest man would soon destroy himself, and He made pro­ vision for one day In seven when labor should cease and man should be free for that recreation of soul and body which should fit him for the labor of the week. ‘ Our lesson answers two important questions about our rest day, name­ly, Why ? and How? I. Wby We Keep a Day of Best (Exod. 20:8-11; Isa. 58:13, 14).The chief reason is that God com­ mands it. One day out of seven is for our re-creation by rest and wor­ ship. That should be sufficient to cause His people to *‘remember” the day “to keep it holy.” . Doubtless it is true that essential war work and related activities must be carried on, even on Sunday. God did not forbid works of necessity. But even though there is this need, who will deny that many use Sunday for work that is not essential—and countless others devote it to godless pleasure. Notice that the day of rest was to be not only: for the family, but also for servants and for visitors. The employer who unnecessarily op-, erates his factory or office on Sun­ day violates this commandment. Note also that the man who is to rest on the seventh day is supposed to work on the six days. . The precept of Exodus 20 is en­forced by the promise of Isaiah 58. The man who delights in keeping God’s commandment regarding the day of rest, will find that God de­lights in and honors him. Both men and nations have found this to be true. n. How We Keep a Day of Best (Mark 2:23-3:6). The formalists of Christ’s day, the Pharisees, had overlooked the heart of God’s law and the holy living which it was intended to produce, and. had bound up even the observ­ance of the sabbath (which was in. tended to be a day of rest and glad­ ness) in such a mass of technical "thou shalt nots” that it was a day of fear. They had a false outward profession of worship and had en­tirely missed the true spirituality of God’s law, a fact which drew upon their heads the anger and rebuke of our Lord. The two incidents in this portion of our lesson reveal that under the cloak of earnestly observing the law of the sabbath, the Pharisees were actually covering their own hypoc­risy and their hatred for Christ. The accusations against the disci­ples because they had taken and eaten grain was not on the ground that they had stolen, for the law (Deut. 23:25) guaranteed that right to the one who passed through his neighbor’s field. The Pharisees con­ tended, however, that the disciples had worked on the sabbath in pick­ing and hulling the grain. The healing of Uie man with the withered arm revealed that back of their professed concern for the sab­bath was a real hatred for Christ. It is an appalling thing that in the house of worship on the very sab­ bath day, these men, outwardly so religious, were plotting against our Lord. “They watched him,” and even so the enemies of the Cross watch us who are His followers. Iliey are not concerned that the man with the withered arm, or with the withered sotd may be helped, but only that they may find something to con­demn. Jesus cuts across human hypoo- risy and hatred to declare, that the true keeping of the sabbath is to do tbe work of God. No work of neces­ sity (like plucking the grain) or of mercy (like healing the withered arm) is ever out of place on the day of rest. _ A word of caution is needed, for some have sought to interpret this Scripture as providing biblical ground for doing all sorts of things on their day of rest. That day is for man’s good, not for his destruction. His greatest good is served by rest, worship; spiritual development, Christian fellowship, and the doing of deeds of necessity and mercy. The desecration of the Lord’s Day in our time i£ a serious matter. Let us not contribute to its deterioration. America needs Sunday as a day of rest and worshio.

They will hare to wait a long time. Mr. Roasevelt is a good polition some think a better politician than a pre­ sident. We remarked through these col­ umns a short while ago that Pre­ sident Roosevelt might want to sit at the head of the peace table. And now, by gosh some of the New Deale,rs Ttave decide! that he should have the job One boon that President Roose­ velt could give to the people would be to compel Harry Hopktns, Dave Niles and others of the Fourth Term engineers within the White House to stand for election. Voting would be fun then. A New Dtaler told us one dav recently that Jim Farlev would be the next president of the United States. Jim has about as much chance of heing the next president as we have of betng ambassador to the Couit of St. lames A rural letter carrier tried re­ cently to convince us that every body had their pockets full of monev, and that prosperity w as covering the earth like the summer sunshine. If that mail carrier told the truth there are a lot of liars in this part of the woods. Many peo­ ple tell us that they haven’t any money and cannot pay their honest debts. We know they are not all liars. Doe to a decrease in our patter supply and to a great increase sub­ scriptions. we are compelled to take from our list all names of service men until their families have had time to pay up. So. if you have the paper coming to your home, and if you want the paper to continue to the boy. please see that the subscrip* tion is kept in proper order. Just think: How much one of those boys appreciate the paper— which is much more than a letter from home. So far as money we are not making one penny on any one of those subscriptions. In fact we are losing, but we are going t do our part to help make life pleasant for them and this is one of t e ways we have to show that we mean it Reilland News I Chfldren Faring Well Pvt- Prank Williams, of California, is speMHng a fifteen day furlough with Mr. Bnd Mrs. Carl Williams.

General Uarehall statid recently: “Commands to whom WACa have been assigned have spoken in the highest terms of their efficiency and value—in 15S kinds of Army jobs " This statement is indicative of the excellent job the Women's Army Corps is doing.However the present objective is to re­ lease more thousands of soldiers for com­bat training. In eider to accomplish this, each state will participate In the cam­ paign. Likewise each city and county. OurofBceofCiviIian Defense has been de­ signated by Governor Bmughton as the re­ cruiting agency in Nortb Carolina. Our city's participation in this nation wide drive is needed to assure tbe success of this projiram, Our county has been selected to enlist three recruits by October 15..

See Here, P riv ate H argrove! by M o rio n H a r g r o v e IBE SCOBI SO FAB: M n te Muton Hargrove, (ormer restore editor of a Kortli CaroUna newspaper, has been In* ducted Into the army and lias completed a good portion of Ms basic training at Fort Bragg. CIassUled as a cook and with plenty of extra KP duly because of his Iallore at times to grasp some of the fundamentals of army life, he has be­come quite familiar wllh the Company kitchen. He has learned the finer points ol "go!dt> ricking” and has mastered the elements of army slang. As we pick op his story here, Hugrove la listening to a bus driver In a nearby town expand on his former army career. Hargrove suspects (and rightly so) that the troth Is being stretched. The has driver speaks: CHAPTER XIII “ ‘Well,’ he said, hemming and hawing a little, ‘three stripes means he's just a plain buck sergeant. Six stripes is a master sergeant. I’m a supply sergeant. That’s two grades above a buck sergeant and one grade below a master sergeant. I’m expecting to be a master sergeant in a month or so. That’s as high as you can get.’“I didn’t say anything for a while; just sat there looking like I was letting it soak in. Then I asked him, real calm-like and ignorant, 1How many stripes does a private first class have?’"So help me, he looked like he was going to choke for a while. Then he came back with a snappy answer in a flash. “ ‘Well,’ he said, 'first-class pri­vates have one stripe, just like us supply sergeants, only their stripe is bottom-upward from ours. Their stripes point down.' "Well, sir, I thought I’d die. I almost popped trying to keep from laughing, but I kept a straight face. Then I said, ‘Things sure have changed since I was in'the Army. Back then, three or four years ago, supply sergeants were just plain buck sergeants and first-class pri­ vates were the only one-stripe men.’ " ‘Yeah,’ he said, sort of weak- like, ‘time changes a lot of things.’ "That was all he had to say. He looked sort of foolish and pulled the cord to get off at the next stop. “So there was another bull ses­sion shot to hell. Maybe it was for the best, though. I didn’t have a chance against a fellow with that much talent." I ran out of cigarettes this after­ noon near my old cooks’ battery, so I thought I’d drop in on First Ser­ geant Goldsmith, who smokes the same brand that I do. Sergeant Goldsmith is the old type of top Ser­ geant, with a heart of GI shoe leather and a voice that would ^ut the stoutest bugle to shame. "Great gods and little paychecks,” he railed. "Look what’s loose again! Whst’s the latest, little man, or aren’t reporters supposed to know?” "The only news I’ve heard today,” I told him, helping myself to a cof­fin nail from his desk, “is that they’re sending all the first ser­geants in the Replacement Center to Panama for hard-labor service de­ tachments. Polish your brass and you might make acting corporal be­ fore the war’s over.’’ “On, it’s lovely to run into an old top sergeant who can’t, put you on kitchen police when you sass back at him.” __ "You’re a sweet little lad, Har­ grove,” he purred. “We really do " I The basket bad In it a cheerful lit­tle blaze bright enough t« take ac­tion photographs on a w*««nless night. miss you here. When you were here, I never had to worry about where I was going to get another man when there was a stovepipe to be cleaned or a street to be swept. Now I have to go and search a.ound— search, mind you—for f^meone who’s been a bad little boy. Never had that trouble when y< » were here.” "Sergeant,” I told him, propping my feet on his wastebasket, “you never mips the water until it’s gone under the bridge. This ba'.tery owes a lot to me. Look out there at that grass growing in front of the orderly room. That grass wouldn’t be there —much less be that green—if I hadn’t spent time and tabor sprin­ kling it with fertilizer. And,think how much cleaner the windows were when I was here to wash every one of them every week. I’ll bet you haven’t bad a clean floor in the bat­tery sir.ee I laid down my mop.” “How’s sergeant Ooton making out with his grocery budget?” I asked. “Trying to feed you on forty-two cents a day? The last time I saw him, he was working out plans to feed you oii Buncombe County turnip greens or pa; you to eat at the Service dub.” “Oh, that," he said. “I’ve saved so much on cigarettes since you left the battery that I could afford to eat uptowr now if I wanted to. And let’s leave any remarks about Bun­combe County out of this. And let’s leave your feet out of my waste­basket.” From how on I must deny myself one of the fundamental rights and joys of mankind. I must quit bum­ ming matches from those near and dear to me—that is, if I want them to remain near and dear to me. Whenever I ask anyone around Cen­ ter Headquarters—even Mulvehill or Bishop or Bushemi—for a match, I get one of two answers, both of which are getting very tiresome by now. I hear either “What's the mat­ter? Has your fire gone out?” or “Just light your cigarette on one of our conflagrations; there should be a small arson in yonder corner.” Since I am a patient and long- suffering child, I make no scathing remarks in return for these jaded witticisms. I merely shrug my frail shoulders pathetically and seek greener pastures. It isn’t so bad, their refusing the match. The worst part of it is the reminder of an inci­ dent which might well be forgotten. The incident is of no consequence, but it might as well come off my chest. Being a slave to the despoiler of human health and well-being, the cigarette, I still have a fondness for an occasional switch to a pipe. I don’t especially enjoy the taste of pipe tobacco, and I don’t believe even the most avid pipe smoker especially cares for it. Most of them like me, merely like the feel of a pipe in their mouths and the dignity and solemnity a pipe gives them when they punctuate their conversa­ tions by jabbing the air with it. Smoking a pipe only occasionally, I still have not become overly pro­ ficient at keeping the little things burning. When I buy a can of to­bacco, I buy a five cent box of country matches with it. Half my smoke is tobacco; the other half ia' Georgia pine smoke from file match- sticks. I was busy today typing out a story, and I had lit my pipe for about the twenty-second time. I threw the match into the wastebas­ ket and forgot all about the whole thing. I was absorbed in my work. I noticed by degrees that our of­ fice was becoming lighter and warmer. I noted the fact with a rich feeling of comfort, but no great interest in finding out the cause. It wasn’t until I reached for another match to light that pipe again that I noticed my wastebasket. The thing had in it a cheerful little' blaze bright enough to take action photo­ graphs on a moonless night. There was nothing to get excited about, I told the remainder of the public relations staff, the sergeant major’s corps of assistants, and the filing department. I nonchalantly put my foot into the basket and started stamping out the fire. The thing would have worked, too, ex­ cept that the length of Iny foot was greater than the diameter of the wastebasket. The foot stuck and I could not stamp. Corporal Sager, of Plans and Training, leaped to the rescue, pried the foot'from the basket, grabbed the basket and sped away to the water cooler. I followed him and poured myself a cup of water. I still saw no cause for excitement. To the bystanders’, catcalls, un­ seemly laughter, and‘accusations of arson, I turned a fatherly ear and a quieting voice. I explained patient­ ly that setting fire to wastebaskets was an ancient and honored pastime in the newspaper world, I told them that one of the best newspaper men North Carolina has ever seen—“Un­cle John” pickson, former city edi­ tor of the News—used to set -his wastebasket on fire at least twice a week by tossing cigarettes or burn­ing matches into it. It was a mark of certain .industry, a sign that a man was wrapped up in his work. —Ba— Maury Sher, my old buddy when we were together In the student cooks’ battery, had been on an ex­ tended furlough. Before he returned, I had left on a three-day pass for Charlotte. We had not got together for two or three weeks, so I went over to his battery to look him up. ' The battery street was almost empty; the mess-hall door was locked. The mess sergeant was no­ where to be seen. Finally I found a soldier who had seen Sergeant Sher •in his room, so I ,looked for him there. The sergeant lay on his lazy back on a stilted bunk in his cadre room, reading Dorothy Parker. The win­ dows of the room had been equipped with flimsy green curtains, and par­ tially deflated holiday balloons flut­tered against them. On the wall above ' the bed hung a small oil painting of a forest, with an icy white mountain in the background. A writing table had been installed and on a shelf in over his bunk were a reading lamp, a small radio, and a neat array of books. I stood there surveying the place for a while. “What in the sweet W.N.U.S C X V lC t 'name of military, hardship-have you got here?” I asked him. ®"A11 this place needs is a couple of Morris chairs and a sign reading, 'What.is home without a mother?’ ” "Beginning to look nice, ain’t it?” he said. “Just a few minor im­ provements here and there. Know where I can pick up a small upright piano at a good price?” I looked over the room again and my eye fell on the resplendent for­est scene. “Where’d you get this canvas knickknack?JIt’s an original, isn’t it?” “It ain’t nothing else but,” he said. "Painted by a friend of mine up in Columbus, Guy knocks them off like that in about twenty minutes. How do you like it?"Aside from the fact that the water­ fall is a little frothy and the moun­ tain looks like something from a mentholatum advertisement, it would do credit to any mess ser­ geant’s room in the whole Replace­ ment Center.”“You didn’t notice this," he said, lifting himself lazily from the bunk. From the table he-took an ordinary- looking beer can with an extra lid on it. “John Bull Beer,” he said. “Can’t buy it anywhere except in my fam­ ily’s restaurant in Ohio and Penn­sylvania.” He lifted the top lid, revealing a businesslike cigarette lighter. I took the can, struck the flint and a roaring blaze leaped at me. It burned merrily away. “Not bad, huh? Good advertising scheme.”“It should come in handy,” I told him, “anytime the furnace goes blah. That little conflagration would heat a whole barracks in three min­utes flat.” He twisted the dial of his radio and a high-pitched feminine wail bounced off the far wall. “I’ve been listening to the opera most of the afternoon—The Magic Flute." "What happened to the magic skil­ let?” I asked. “How come you’re lying around here instead of bustling about your kitchen—tickling the pal- "Have yoa any last words before’ I pass KP on you?" the sergeant asked. ates of the men with your culinary delights, as they say in the Army cooks’ manual?""No supper tonight," he explained airily. “We’re just changing cycles and there ain't nobody here but the noncommissioned officers, like my­self. I told them to go and eat next door. “This is the life, little man.” He yawned. “Nothing to do, nothing to worry about. Just lie around, read and listen to the opera. Sans souci,. as we French say—without care.” -IM - The first sergeant looked over his glasses with a rather unpleasant gleam in his eyes. He glanced sig­ nificantly at the top of my head, so I removed my cap. The first ser­ geant adjusted himself in his chair and cleared his throat. _ “Private Hargrove,” he began slowly and deliberately, “the govern­ ment of the United States, to whom no task seems impossible, has tack­ led the job of pulling you a little of the way out of your abysmal ignor­ ance. With complete faith that heav­ en will help them in this job, they have begun a series of lectures about why you are being trained to fight, whom you are being trained to fight, and. all the other little things you should know.” “Yes, sir,” I said hesitantly, run­ ning my finger around the inside of my collar. “You mean the radio lectures on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.”“From four until four-thirty,” the first sergeant said. “The entire pop­ulation has been invited by Upstairs to gather in the mess halls to hear and discuss these lectures. Yester­day .afternoon you weren’t on hand. Have you any last words before I pass KP on to you?”“It’s a rather long story, ser­ geant,” I began.“Here we go again," sighed the sergeant. “Have a chair and begin breaking my heart. It will make you feel better to have that off your chest before you go to the kitchen." “Sergeant,” I asked him, “were you ever editor of a high-school newspaper?”“Is this long story_ about me or you?” the sergeant asked. “Please, continue with your story.” “Weli, sir,” I continued, “only a high-school editor could know th^ pain that is in my heart. Only he could sympathize with me. I have gone back to my old job I had years ago. I am again a true high-school editor. I am editor of the Replace­ment Center section of the Fort Bragg Post.”“Meeting such a. dignitary is one of the greatest occasions of my life,” the first sergeant said dryly. (TO BE CONTINUED) A SERIES OF SPECIAL ARTICLES BY THE LEADING AR CORRESPONDENTS Sicily Was No Cinch By Quentin Reynold* (WNU Feeture--Tbroufh epeeiel srtengement with Cottiers WeeUy,) Let's take a look at the whole Sicilian operation and see just how much of a push-over it was. It was undoubtedly one of the most daring­ ly and brilliantly executed military operations of all time, with Ameri­ cans, British and Canadians work­ ing in beautiful harmony.It was a textbook operation, with the Tactical forces (Alexander in command) carrying out everything just as the Strategic forces (Eis­ enhower in command) had planned. The-success of the landing on “D" day, which was July 10, and the rapid advance through Sicily dur­ing the following days far exceeded the hopes of our military chiefs. But it was not easy!Our Inteliigenee told Eisenhower that there were about 335,000 Ger­ man and Italian troops on Sicily. Eisenhower decided to land about 95,000 men on “D” day and then gradually increase his force as needed. The First division under Gfen. Ter­ry Allen landed at Gela on the south­ western coast. !Hiis is a great fight­ ing unit which has even won Mont­ gomery’s.admiration, and Monty is not one to toss bouquets around— even to bis own troops. The weath­ er when they landed was what the navy boys call “force five,” which means that a 80-mile wind was a- blowin’. However, Terry landed his men on time as he always does, with col­ orful, loquacious but fantastically courageous Gen. Teddy Roosevelt as second in command. They land­ ed and advanced rapidly against pillbox opposition which they soon smothered. Cnriser Beato Tanks.Then the Hermann Goering divi­ sion came at them hell-bent with tanks. The First had to fall back to the beach, where they would have fought it out to the end—and against tanks there could have been only one end. Happily, a cruiser offshore got word of what was go- tog on, and opened up with its big guns against the tanks. It was prob­ ably the first time in military his­tory that an engagement between tanks and a cruiser took place. Any­ how, they paid off on the cruiser.The original plan called for Gen. Matt Ridgway’s airborne troops to woik with the First. However, on “D” day there was a big wind, and the lads who took, to the silk were blown all over the island. Instead of being able to consolidate accord­ ing to plan, the airborne lads ganged up in groups of six to ten and just improvised as they went along. The beauty of our army, as I see it, is its infinite capacity to impro­vise. If the scheduled plan goes awry, the boys can dream some­thing up on the spur of the moment. Mentally, our kids are elastic. That night the airborne lads just went a-wandering all over the landscape, popping off at anything they saw alive, and this considerably baffled the orthodox Eyetie and German de­fenses, which didn’t think it quite sporting. If you think that I am blindly, hopelessly impressed by, and de­ voted to these bids of oars—it yoa Hiinfc that I am prejudiced and com­ pletely lopsided on ti» subject of our. American troops here in Sicily— why, you’re absolutely right.' Any American who isn’t delirious­ ly proud of our army should have his head examined. I am just try­ing to say that they took Sicily (I know the British and Canadians.had important parts, but we’re not con­ sidering them for the moment) against great odds. Acted Like Veterans. But let one far better qualified than I, have the floor. Alex Clif­ford is the war correspondents’ war correspondent. The brilliant Eng­ lishman, who writes for the London Mail, has studied warfare for many years. “I got the surprise of my life,” he told me. “I’ve, been with Ihe veteran Eighth army for a long time , and naturally didn’t expect much from a comparatively green outfit like the First division. You can only learn to fight by fighting. But somehow this bunch had learned. it without having many fights! In action they were cool, absolutely, and they acted like veterans!” Then he went on, thoughtfully; “When tough artillery- fire came at them, they didn’t bunch up as green troops always do. They fanned out beautifully: They’re good fighters, and cruel fighters, too, and they are the best disciplined outfit I ever saw.“They storm a town and have a tough time with casualties and then they walk, in. Instead of getting tough with the local inhabitants or with prisoners, what do they do? They share their ehocolate, their cigarettes, with them, when all their instincts must be to slaughter them AS they think of their own casualties.” SEWtNG GiRCLE Perfection.'

Sometime ago I got to studying a- bout the religion of some people and it reminded me of a rag doll. You know a rag doll is simply made of rags. It is limber and you can bend it about in any kind of shape. It has no spine, and you can bend it backwards just as you can forwards. It will yield easily to any position. Just soft and lim­ ber. In the hands of a child it is pliant. She can bend it backward, forward, and pnt it in any position she wishes't to be. Just an old, ugly, flabby, worthless rag doll. Now the religion of lots of peo­ ple is similar to this. The devil can bend and twist them into any shape he wants tbem. They have no spiritual spine, and if the devil wants to bend them to this side and that he can do so; if be wants them to yield to this temptation and that, and puts a bit of pressure upon them, they yield. ?f he wantsthem to drink beer, all he has to do is to get somebody to tempt them with it, and they drink the filthy stufi If he wants them to smoke, dip, chew and squirt tobacco he puts it before tbem and they are ready to go for it. If h" wants them to run with a bunch of pleasure seekers and become one of the crowd, all be has to d» is to send the bunch along and they fall in line. If ne wants them to take a drink of li­ quor or wine, all he has to do is to put it before them and they drink it. If he wants them to dress and act like the world, and yet profess religion, if he will show them the foolish fad and recommend it to tbem, then they are ready for it. Lots of professed Christians arc simolv as spineless as a rag doll. And they are just as worthless. They, have no spiritual bones and sinews, and it looks like thev can't stand anything that the devtl brings before them. They don’t have any bones in their legsso they can stand upright like men of strength and power. They are never able to stand alone. Tbey just fall about limbsr and flabby. Poor rag dolls Thev never seem to be able to re sist the devil, stand for God and right, and like giants against the wrong. However, they could if thev wotyld come to God and let Him save and sanctify them, put a spiritual backbone in tbem, and give them spiritual bones and sin ews that have strength and power about them They could be giants for God, hnt they nevrr seem to realize It. Al! they know is to be­ long to some church, void of sav ing grace, godly uprightness' and power. They are so feeble, so soft, so flabby in tbeir faith and resist­ ance against the devil and sin and wickrduess until lots of folks look on and really wonder if there is anything to religion anyhow. Well there is much indeed to the unde­ filed religion of our Lord Jesus Christ, but nothing tn rag doll re ligion. The religion of Iesus Christ gives one a backbone so strong that all the demons in hell and on earth can’t bend bim to partake of the evils of the world, run with the devil’s crowd, chew the devil's fod der nor drink tbe devil’s slop, nor walk with the devil’s crowd, nor go to a devil's bell Now i. rag dolt is one of the ug­ liest things I ever saw. Sometimes I wonder how a child can bear to play and monkey with such an ug Iv thing. Well, a religion that stoops and bends and twists to a- bont everything tbe devil brings a- Iong certainly is nglv. It is so ug Iy that it isn’t becoming to any sinner, much less one who prefess. ses to be a Christian. One of tbe ugliest sights on earth is to see some one who is a tnemler of some cbnrcb, and claims to be following the Lord Jesus Christ, yet yields to that sin, this ungodly habit and that, and is robed in the clownish garments of worldliness. It is a very common tbing to see professed Christians today with paint smaar- ed on tbeir lips and cheeks, and with something In their ears that look like buttons, and with dresses to theii knees and above, and with anoogb of the world’s regalia to make old Jezebel blush and with enough worldly mannerisms about tbem to make an angel blusb and cause the frowns of God Almightv to overshadow tbem. Tbe religion of Jesus Christ is beautiful, becom­ ing and grand. It is tbe tnost val­ uable tbing tbe world has ever known, or ever will know It makes a gentleman of a man and a lady of a woman. It puts a value upon one’s life that nothing else can in Some Bible Statements By J. W. Kurfees, Winston-Salem. It is thought by some that the different religions denominations over the country, taken together, cenatitu’e the church about which we read in the New Testament. This teaching is wholly unssriptural as we will ahow further on. The religious denominations, referred to above, have, each and all, been founded by men, long since the New Testament was written. The church, about which we read in that sacred volume, was established by Christ and his inspired apostles. In Matt. 16:18. Christ promised to es tablish his church: and he did so on the first pentecost after he rose from the dead. On that occasion the Apostle Peter pre­ ached that wonderful sermon, on account of which is given in Acts 2i>d chapter; and in tbe 47ih verse, the record says: ‘ The Lord added to the church dailv such as should ye saved,” or “Those that were sa­ ved,” as it reads in R. V. ‘ People speak of “joining the church " all the wide, wide world, and makes Butnosuchstatementsarefound in the Bible. Tbe Lord adds to his church, allone a blessing to mankind that can­ not be equalled 1 n the face of the whole earth. Local Farm Loan Asso­ ciation Consolidates Consolidation of the Davie Nation­ al Farm Loan Association with six other associations to form a new as­ sociation, which will be known as the Winston-Salem National Farm Loan Association, has been approved by the Farm Credit Association, ac­ cording to George L Crater, Secre- tary-Treasurer. These associations country, are not the church of our who obev his gospel, as per Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, and John 3:5. AU such obedient believers constitute the chorch. about which we read in tbe New Testament, What then is the church? It is the body of Christ, over which be is head. Co). 1:18; aod he has but one body. Eph. 4:4. Of course this body of Christ, which is tbe church, bad different local congrega dons in New Testament times, as the chorch at Corinth, at Ephesus, at Colossee. etc.. and the same rule applies today, but these congregations are not different de­ nominations. By the above statements we find that the various religious denominations over have maintained a joint office at Winston-Salem in < he Trade Street Branch of the Wachovia Bank Build­ ing for the past seven years. Mr. Carter, who has been serving as se- cretary-treasurer, will continue in the same capacity for the new asso­ ciation. and Miss Jacquelyn West will continue as assistant secretary* treasurer. The new association will begin business on October I, and is autho rized to accept applications for farm loans from The Federal Land Bank of Columbia in Davidson, Davie, For­ syth, StokeB. Surry and Yadkin Counties. Under an agreement with the Columbia Lank Bank, it will also handle collection of these ioans and perform other loan services for the Bank. These loans are made to farm­ ers for terms of five to forty years at 4 per cent interest secured by first mortgage on farm property. The new association is a cooperative cred­ it organization, owned and controll­ ed entirely by its farm-members. its principal purpose being to obtain farm mortgage loans for farmers from The Federal Land Bank of Columbia at a low rate of interest and on terms suited to their needs The association has an authorized capital of $60,000.00, together with a substantial surplus and reserve. It has more than 500 loans outstanding aggregating nearly $900,000.00. The old Davie Association only served Davie County and, while it has been able to retire its stock at par to members who have paid tbeir loans in full, tbe new organization is a much stronger financial set up,” Mr. Carter stated. “Furthermore, the new association will be closely affiliated with The Federal Land Bank of Columbia so that better farm mortgage credit service can be rendered to farmers in this section at less cost,” he continued. The new association has also been designated as issuing agent for Se­ ries E War Savings Bonds. Mrs. Queen Bess Kennen of Mocks vil'e, R 2, was elected President of the new association and will reprc sent Davie Connty on the board of directors, Makes Fine Record Peterborough, N.

Lord, either individually or collectively. Each and every one of 'ham have a creed, confession of faith, or manual, writ­ ten by some man or set of men, by which they go. in their religious work, instead of being guided by tbe inspired record, the New Testament. Not only so. but oacb and every creed differs from all of the others, while our sa­ viour enjoins unity. He asks that his followers be one. as he and the Fathers are one. bee John 17:17-22 Me also tells us what to preach. Not wbat some man or set of men prescribe, but “Preach the word,” 2nd Tim. 4:2. So people today who have obeyed tbe gospel, and thus become membets of Christ's body, should preach and practice what New Testament Christians preached and practiced, adding nothing thereto, and taking nothing from Not only do preachers, and writers, con­ tend that these religious denominations constitute tbe cburch, but they even go so far as to speait of them as branches of the ttue vine. Strange reasoning indeed! In John's gospel, chapter 15. verse 5, we find this language: "I am tbe vine, ye are the branches”, HereourSaviouristaIking to*bis dig ciples, and bow can any one conclude that he is speaking to religious denominations? Tbe idea is c o m p l e t e l y r e l u t e d in verses 6 of c h a p t e r r e f e r r e d to. which r e a d s : “If a man abide not in me, be is cast forth as a branch.” There it is dear reader, an individual C h r i s t i a n ; i s a branch of t h e true vine. Religious denominations, founded by men, are not only; not branches, of the true vine, but each and all are condemned by the Lord himself. In Matt: 15:13, Jesus said, in speaking of human religious organizations; “Every plant which my heavenly Father planted not, shall be rooted op”. From that Iaoguage any one can see how dangerous it is to belong to anything in re­ligion, larger than a local congregation, that has been established since the New Testament was written._____ Davie County Library Organized The Board of Trustees for the Public Librarv for Davie County, appointed by tbe Board County Commissioners, held their first meeting Ocl I and organized the Davie County Library.

Let Us Pray (By Rev. Loy D Thompson) The editor of The Upper Room says very partinently: "Nothing is more important than to quicken the prayer life of our people. “This is true todey, it was true yesterday, and it will be true torn arrow. Can you think of anything that is more vitally needed. Therearemanymore thines we need to be sure, but what is more fundamentally essential than that we shall form in our minds the desire, the disposition to pray? Let us therefore get at the- business of doing two things: First, let us form tbe habit of prayer in our dailv liv­ ing in order tha' we may keep alive in ourselves an ardent, vigorous and sou'.-satisfving devotional spirit Sec­ ond. let us seek industriously and unremittingly 1 0 sidetrack every­ thing that would tend to interfere with this h;gh and—bold - venture. Anything that will quicken tbe life of our people is a boon to society a blow to the devil. We need pray- vitamins that will produce in us spir­ itual vitality, spiritual vision and spiritual victory.' One of our modern religious lead­ ers on being asked wbat kept him so physically fit u n d er tremendous stress and strain, replied: “Grace, grass and gumption.’’ Grace, he claimed, kept his soul harmoniously sound; grass kept the bodv vigorous; gumption kept his mind alert. Spir­ itual, physical and mental forces heightened and deepened and inte­ grated by earnest and believing prayer will make Iifesupremely rich, aboundingly vigorous, abundantly belplul. Again let us remind you that nothing is more important than to quicken the prayer life of our people. No Coal Shortage Pronouncement that tbe coal out­ look isn’t as black as it was paint­ ed comes from Brrol F. Hardy, government coal coal consultant of Concinnati. Only a few weeks ago there came a statement from the office of Fuel Coordinator Ickes that coal ship, ments would have to be cut in half. Now Hardy declares that 1 Tbereis no-shortage and shouldn’t be a shortage, but we will need every pound we can produce.” Glad to hear it. But if there is no short, why tbe scare bulletins from Ickes? Aren’t Americans worried enough without these false alarms from Washington? Surely, we the people don’t need that kind of needling to make us war con scious at this stage of the game. — Statesville Daily. Three At Mars Hill Mars Hill.

It was there that Capt. Merchant Marine ®*es ^bes" CadetsTaaght Sea Tricks by Master ter Stedman first learned about tides, salt tang, and ships. He’s never strayed far from the sea since. Even now in his job of commandant of cadets at the United States Merchant Ma­ rine academy, the Annapolis of the merchant marine, at Kings Point, L. I., he’s close to the blue reaches of Long Island sound. The Kings Point school has been turning out officers to run the ships that get supplies to the fighters at the war fronts for a year now, and the cadets have learned navigation and discipline from a master. Captain Stedman was just short of 30 when the United States entered World War I and he quickly left his native Quincy for the deck of the coast guard cutter Ossipee. From August, 1917, to January, 1919, he was on the hazardous patrol between Gibraltar and the British Isles. Back in America,- he took a few marine engineering courses at Massachusetts Tech and speed­ ily returned to sea, this time in the merchant marine. His heroic part in the rescue of 28 men from an Italian freighter in an October. gale in 1925 skyrocketed \im to fame and the chief officer- hip of the then queenly Leviathan. — *— OPRUILLE BRADEN was a hand- some bucko when he found him­ self a girl behind an aristocratic grille in Chile and courted her for Our Caban Envoy fike^tti^old Has Considerable Doug Fair- Job, Heft, FamUy banks “ a seven - reel thriller.

It is like him to have a top-flight diplomatic job. So tar as the records go he has been second rate only once. At Yale, when he tried football, he was fair to middlin’ but no more. Elkhorn, Mont., had failed to train hlin properly ei­ ther for blocking or rushing. Bnt after he became a graduate mining engineer In 1914 he led the field. He was 20 then. A year later he had his charming bride in that southern land of tranquil mornings where "the mountains get out of the map.” A few years after he had enough copper and oil to come back and swing against home-grown com­ petition. Here he made more money out of rugs, real estate, steam shov­ els, and in his early forties could afford to become President Roose­velt’s roving envoy in Latin Amer­ica. This took him from a hand­ some estate at Riverdale-on-the-Hud- son but the rewards probably com­ pensated. Shortly he was minister to Colombia, then ambassador, and now he and his family are in Ha­ vana. It is a considerable family, and may explain his considerable weight. Five children, plus diplo­matic chores, doubtless leave him no time for the handball that used to sweat his girth down.

FAIRY godmothers must have stood three deep around Flor­ ence Freeman’s cradle when she was an infant; certainly she seems to have just about every­ thing now. If you listen to “The Open Door” (it’s on the air on NBC five mornings a week, and is considered one of the best of the radio serials) you know her as “Lisa Arnold.” She’s beautiful, an excellent actress, the wife of a min­ister and the mother of two chil­dren. She takes an active part m church activities. Watching a broad­ cast, it was fascinating to see how she and tho other members of the company worked; gestures and facial expressions made me long for telexision't After appearing m more than 30 pictures, lovely Lynn Bari gets her chance to satisfy a long standing ambition to sing in a picture. It’s LYNN BARI United Artists’ “The Bridge of San Luis Rey.” But—she’s booked to sing romantic Peruvian ballads in their original tongue! Nothing daunted. Miss Bari studied Spanish for three weeks and learned the songs, native dialect and all. Margo, J. Carrol Naish, Tom Neal and other members of the cast of RKO’s “Behind the Rising Sun” have their own reasons for hating the Japs. They had to wear Japa­nese shoes for the picture—both the soft, flat-soled sandals and the wood­en clogs—and as- a result they de­ veloped blisters and callouses during the first week of shooting. Rosalind Russell thinks you ought to know tbat there’ll be no man shortage in “Ten Percent Woman.” Both her leading men top the six- foot mark, Brian Aherae by two inches, WiUard Parker by tour.

It turned out that he needed a passport photo in order to get permission to fish off the coast of-California. After motion picture executives had coaxed and coaxed Ingrid Berg­ man to come to Hollywood, some of them looked upon her with alarm when she finally appeared. She stands five feet K4 inches!

We jumped at midnight. For 30 minutes the, jump door had been open, and the lieutenant, our jump master, had been standing there looking out into the moonlight and waiting for the red-light flash which meant to stand up and hook on chutes.We had been flying a long time- much longer than actually needed to come from the African camp to Sicily. But, to throw the enemy off, we did not fly there directly. Maybe there will never be such a night again. I’ve heard that 2,000 planes and 4,000 boats took part in the invasion, and I can believe it. The sky around us was filled with cargo transport planes, all loaded with paratroops, all heading for the same place, like a billion bees. AU of us were excited. For exact-, Iy one year and three days we’d been training for this, our first bat­ tle action. Three days before, we’d celebrated the anniversary by kill­ ing three beef cattle for dinner. And now the target was a few minutes ahead of us. We passed over the Sicilian coast and knew it wouldn’t be long now.The red light flashed. AU of us stood up, fastened our chutes to the jump cable, and waited. Waited for what seemed hours for the green jump signal from the pilot. The plane was rocking from side to side, much worse than it ever did in the 15 practice jumps we’d made—I still don’t know why. •Directly ahead and behind us we could see faintly glowing green lights—formation lights of planes ahead and behind.Lieutenant Disappears. The pilot’s light suddenly flashed. Officers always jump first. The lieu­tenant yelled, “Let’s go!” and leaped out into the moonlight. We never saw him again. We followed him instantly. The plane emptied in ten seconds. I was the last to jump. The plane seemed to be going unusually fast. My chute snapped open with a ter­ rific jerk, and my carbine dis­ appeared. So the only weapon I had was a long trench knife. I should have been able to see all the other chutes in our party, but I could only see one, and realized something had gone wrong. Plans called for us to be dropped at 600 feet, with the plane slowed down to almost stalliiig speed—about 100 miles an hour. This was so we would spend less vulnerable time floating down, and also so we would be close together when we hit. As it turned out, we were dropped at full speed—almost 200 miles an hour—and from 1,500 feet. That's why I coifld see only one other chute. I kept my eyes glued on it and pulled at my shrouds to follow it. I landed hard but safe in an or­ chard. The rest of the boys landed nearby. Comparing notes, we were convinced that we had been dropped in a comparatively strange country, nowhere near our target area. Ac­ tually, we were' at least 50 miles off—some time I’d like to know why.This was all orchard country, which seemed dotted with enemy troops, forcing os to move care­ fully. There was spasmodic firing everywhere, but we managed to avoid the enemy. We spotted the main road and headed for it. We had crept along it about 500 yards when we were challenged. It was another American, posted there in the bushes to lead anybody to a nearby farmhouse which was being used as an assembly point and first- aid station. We went in.From prisoners we learned that we had landed a few miles from Avola, a coastal town which the British even then were attacking. There was a little hill about 200 yards from the farmhouse where, as soon as it got light, we could see the whole scene. I’ll never forget it British landings being made against airplane and artillery oppo­ sition. We coifld help those boys by hitting the enemy in the rear. That’s what we. did. Maybe it was a good thing we landed where we did. I think we did more valuable work than we would have done if we had been dropped right on the bull’s eye. From the hilltop, as far as I could see, British ships were lying just offshore, with lines of little boats moving back and forth, bringing in more British Tommies. They were getting plenty of enemy attention. From the bills, Italian artillery was going full blast. Shells and bombs were - bursting among the ships, but the little boats kept com­ ing anyway.It was about eight in the morning when we reached Avola and it took us until 2:30 in the afternoon to a& vance a little more than a mile to ward the town square. 0 Start the Day Bight With Waffles (See Recipes Below.) Breakfast Needs How many notches are you push­ ing up the nutrition yardstick at breakfast time? There are three meals a day, and if your family is to receive the necessary amount of nutriment during that day you should take care of as many of these requirements at one meal as pos­ sible. Another reason in favor of the nu­ tritious breakfast is that it helps the family .to be up and at the day’s work with more.zip and pep than if they just have the roll and coffee, -bite-and-run excuse for breakfast. Always have fruit or fruit juice to begin the day. Not only does it help to start the day off in good style, but it gives you some quota of your vita­mins and minerals and calcium. Eggs in one form or another have always been a breakfast favorite. Serving them during this morning meal is a splendid way of getting in at least the one egg a day or four or five a week requirement in hand. However, if you feel that eggs are too expensive to serve ev­ ery day for breakfast, use fruits that contain iron, such as prunes and oat­meal and whole grain breads to make up on the vitamin BI needs. It’s smart to introduce variety into the breakfast just as is done in the other meals. Vary breakfast breads as much as possible, the ways in which you fix eggs, the fruits served, and the cereals or other foods such as pancakes, waf­ fles, french toast, etc. Here’s a waffle recipe guaranteed to please palates and ask for en­ cores: tWalnut Waffles. (Makes 4 to 6 large waffles) 2 well-beaten egg yolks 114 cups milk 2 cups pastry flour % teaspoon salt 4 teaspoons baking poWder 6 tablespoons melted shortening or oil 2 stiffly beaten egg whites I cup broken walnut kernels Combine beaten egg yolks and milk. Add flour sifted with salt and baking pow- ^ der. Then add melted shortening or oil. Beat until smooth, then fold in egg whites and nuts. Bake in un­ greased waffle iron. Toast is an old standby and even more delightful if the bread used is varied occasionally. Here are two new favorites: tRaisin Nut Bread. (Makes I 1-pound loaf) 2 tablespoons shortening 4 tablespoons brown sugar 1 egg 2 cups sifted flour 3 teaspoons baking powder Va teaspoon saltVt teaspoon cinnamon Lynn Says: Top. of the Morning! A recent survey of students’ breakfast hab­its revealed the fallowing facts. About 50,000 students were con­tacted.Most students do eat breakfast, but there are still some who go without it. Over half of .them have rolls or bread of some kind, but more than half do not have breakfast food of any kind.The larger percentage did not have fruit or milk—a must item for students’ breakfasts. About a fifth of the amount in­terviewed do not have meat or eggs for breakfast According to their own opinion, most of them feel they do not have aii adequate breakfast.

PYORRHOEA Dr. Barton •A few years ago the reading pub- Cc was told that' inflammation of the- gums (gingivitis) was a forerunner of pyorrhoea and that once pyor­rhoea occurred, all the teeth should be removed.Fortunately our dentists immediate­ ly warned their pa­ tients that gum in­flammation was a sign of some disturb­ ance of the body but it did not mean W |H that pyorrhoea was bound to. follow gin­ givitis. Also that both gingivitis and pyorrhoea could De cured or cor­ rected by pioper treatment. Gin­ givitis is an inflammation of the soft tissues around the teeth; it may be caused hy some general disturbance in the body. In the Journal of the American Dental Association, Dr. Willa Yer- etsky, Grand Rapids, Mich., states that many teeth need never have teen lost at all; they were sacrificed because it was thought that inflamed gums caused pyorrhoea—pus in the gums. ■ Dr. Yeretsky outlines the causes of gingivitis—poor-fitting plates, im­paction of food at certain places be­ cause of faulty contact points be­ tween upper and lower teeth, forma­ tion of calculus which is deposited from the saliva, the digestive juice of the mouth. As calculus is the chief “local” cause of gingivitis and cannot be deposited on the teeth if the number of organisms in the mouth is kept low, it can be seen how necessary it is to keep, the mouth as clean as possible. Dr. Yeretsky points out that it is eating the wrong foods that causes the saliva to deposit calculus and set up inflammation of the gums. 'The gums themselves are not re­ ceiving the right kind of. nourish­ ment to prevent gingivitis. The diet outlined to keep the gums in a healthy condition is: Daily, one- half pint of orange or tomato or grapefruit juice. Twice daily, pro­ tein in the form of meat, eggs, fish or cheese. Four or five eggs, at least, should.be eaten every week. One portion of the following vegeta­ bles: lettuce, cabbage, watercress, swiss chard, brussels sprouts, tur­nip greens, cauliflower, kale, broc­ coli, beet greens. Once daily, one or more of the following vegetables: carrots, beets, peas, corn, pumpkin, onions, cucum­ ber, squash, turnips, artichokes, as­ paragus. Carbohydrates, one at each meal to fill balance of diet: bread, potato, noodles, macaroni, cereals, with fortified bread, or whole grain ce­real at two of the meals. One pint of milk every day; may be in form of cottage cheese, cream soup, or custard.• • • Low Par Invites Vincent’s Angina When an organism is found in every case of a certain disease, it is reasonable to assume it to be the cause of the disease. Thus in Vin­cent’s angina—ulceration of the throat and mouth with sometimes a light gray membrane present- two organisms are always found- fusiform bacillus and Vincent’s spirillum. - These organisms or their poisons cause Vincent’s angina. The causes are local or general. Local cause is lack of rinsing out the mouth and cleaning'the teeth. Lime deposits occur under the mar­ gin of the gums between the teeth together with particles of soft food; the tartar and ,food particles rob the gums of the power to resist the organisms which multiply very rap­ idly. The gums swell apd collect more poisons and also interfere with the proper circulation of the blood in the gums. If pure rich blood is prevented from nourishing the gums, the tissues lack sufficient power to fight the organisms. Another local cause is faulty restoration of teeth by the dentist.The systematic or general causes of Vincent’s angina are (I) lack of vitamins B and C, and (2) lack of certain gland substances. From the above information given us by Dr. Schluger, we learn that if we brush our teeth and gums regu­larly—keep the mouth clean—and yet we have attacks of Vincent’s angina then we should look further for the cause. .- “General physical disability, whether due to fatigue, lack of sun­shine arid exercise, following a sur­ gical operation or long illness, can be the underlying caused” •• • • QUESTION BOX Q.—What causes large bruises on the arms and legs?

Meroney, Decs’d. By A. T. GRANT. Attorney. • It would take quite a stretch of the imagi­ nation to conceive of North Carolina without its rich farmlands.. Indeed, if all the food, textiles, and other basic war materials produced on the. farms of our State were suddenly lost- to America’s war effort, it would be as disastrous as the loss-of many major battles. 278,276 North Carolina farms today are producing the things needed desperately by the fighting men and war workers of the United Nations. Nearly 1,700,000 people (more than 45% of Iforth Caro­ lina’s population) are “in there pitching” —to set new records for farm output. The first of North Carolina’s farm products in value is tobacco, followed by com and cotton. Our State ranks 1st in the nation in -tobacco growing, 14th in corn and 8 th in cotton. And these are just a few of the crops and products Ihat our farms are yielding—under a far­ sighted policy established by successive legiriatures Hiat has given agriculture its rightful place in, the State’s economy. Members of the Greyhound organiza­ tion (a large number of whom grew up on North Carolina farms) have a par­ ticular interest in our North Carolina neighbors who Uve and work on farms and in rural communities. Our buses are, in many cases, their only means of pubUc transportation. We feel we’re helping Hiem do their lug job better—by giving Ihem easy . access to nearby towns and cities for market­ ing crops, buying farm supplies and for seeking relaxation. Our buses have also aided them by bringing farm workers right to their gates. Itisallpartoftfaejob in which Greyhound take* the greatest pleasure — making near neighbors and good neighbors of all the communities that our buses serve in North Carolina.

C. He has been classified as cook and In addition bis failure to master some of the funda­ mentals of army training have resulted In considerable extra KP duty tor him. He bas also learned the finer points of "goldbricbing” and “sbooUng the breeze.” Hargrove has become editor of a section of the camp paper and these duties have kept him away from a lecture series. As we pick up the story, his sergeant is assigning him once more to KP tor this Infraction, Hargrove is trying to explain. He speaks: C H A P T E R X IV ' “Sergeant, for days I round up news from battery reporters. There is always too much or too little. When there is too little, I have to write what is needed. When there is too much, I have to choose which battery reporter is going to horse­ whip me for leaving his copy out.” “The chaplain is right up the street,” the sergeant said. “Then I have to edit all the copy, delete all classified military intelli­ gence and take out all nasty cracks at first sergeants. Then I have to write headlines for all the stories and place them in whatever space I can find for them. Then I must draw everything up into pretty little pages. This is tedious and nerve-' racking work.” “The chaplain will give you a sympathetic ear,” the sergeant said. “I will give you only KP. Does anything you are saying relate to what we’re talking about—why you weren’t in the mess hall yesterday afternoon?” “I was getting around to that, ser­ geant. On the day before the paper is issued, I have to go into Fayette­ville to keep a careful watch over the printers, to see that they don’t put Third Regiment news on the Fourth Regiment page. If I am not there, they may even mix head­lines and put church notices under ‘Service Club Activities.’ It is neces­ sary that I be there.” The sergeant coughed. “I feel for you, Private Hargrove; I deeply sympathize. I wouldn’t think of put­ ting you on K P-” “You wouldn’t?” I gasped eager­ ly.“Don’t interrupt,” the sergeant barked. “As I was saying, I wouldn’t think of putting you on K P-if you hadn’t committed a breach of eti­quette by failing to RSVP the invi- taion. You didn’t tell us you weren’t coming. Or why.” -fia- 1 was dozing peacefully at my typewriter the other morning when there came a knock on my elbow and a bright young voice shouted “Hey!” at me. I looked up into the impish, cheerful, and unquenchably mischievous face of the boss’ daugh­ ter, Miss Sidney Winkel, age four. “Let’s be reasonable, Pvt. MuIve- hill,” I said; "As yon know, I am working on Capt. Winkle’s sympa­thies to get a furlough.” Miss Winkel was dressed like the Navy and looked entirely too ener­ getic for such a drizzly morning. “I’m to be the Valentine,” she said, “and Johnny’s going to take my picture and you’re to take me up to the Service Club and carry Johnny’s things for him and wait for him to get there so you’d bet­ter put on your jacket and cap and let’s go. “I’m going to have my picture taken with Spud Parker,” she add­ ed. Spud Parker is the general’s son and is considered quite' an eligi­ ble bachelor by the younger set. “There’s Tom in the cafeteria,” she said. “Let’s go see Tom.” Thomas James Montgomery Mul- vehill, Pfc., was apparently making his morning rounds in search of news. He was, at the moment, en­ gaged in his daily research in the Service Club’s toast and coffee. “Hello, sis,” he said. “Hello, Mc­ Gee. Pull up a .chair. McGee, get the lady a drink. Something tall and cool. Such as a chocolate milk. What’s the deal, sis?” “I’m to be the Valentine," she said, “and Johnny’s going to take my picture and old Hargrove has to take care of Johnny’s stuff until Johnny comes and I don’t like him anyway because he makes faces and sticks out his tongue and says sticks and snails and puppy-dog tails that’s what little girls are made of and he’s not my boy friend any­ way.” “No punctuation,” I said. I wag­ gled my ears and stuck out my • tongue at her. "The next time I come,” she said, “I’m going to bring some soap and every time he sticks out his tongue i Tsu going to put soap on it because it isn’t nice to stick out your tongue.” She emphasized her state­ ment by paralyzing .my wrist with her fist and sticking her tongue out at me. *“Let’s have no unnecessary vibra­ tions, McGee,” said the Lieufoom- as, looking up reproachfully over his glasses. “Coffee is five cents the cup.” He beamed at her. She beamed back at him. “I have seven boy friends,” she said, raising one forefinger delicate­ ly and rubbing the other against it in a highly jeering gesture. “I have seven boy friends and you’re not one of them and you’re not anybody’s boy friend.” She hit me this time on the elbow and I made a horrible face at her. •“Myaaah,” I said. “Who wants to be your boy friend anyway?” “I wish you wouldn’t blow smoke,” she said. “It makes me cough and it’s not nice to smoke anyway. Old cigarettes!”I wearily crushed my last ciga­ rette in the ash tray. “Womeu, the eternal reformer,” I sighed. “It wasn’t like this in the Old Army.” Miss Sidney Winkel took off her sailor cap and arranged her big red hair ribbon. “You’re a nasty old thing and you’re not nice like Johnny and Tom and Lieutenant Meek and Captain Wilson and all my other boy friends,” she said. ‘ After a pause she added, airily, “And Ma­ jor Long and Captain Quillen, too.” “Myaah,” I sighed, wrinkling my nose more violently. “Oh there’s Johnny,” she sudden­ ly cried, “and he’s going to take my picture and—” She tripped off with a bewitching smile for Bushemi and a running line of babble. “No punctuation,” I said to Mul- vehill.“It’s a woman’s world, McGee,” he said, reaching for another slice of toast. —la— “Get him away .from me, Bu- shemi!” roared Private Thomas James Montgomery Mulvehill. “He’s got that gleam in his eye. Get him away!”“You’re just being difficult, Lieu- thomas,” I told him. “Just sit down and relax.” The Lieuthomas laid his enormous frame on the bunk and started slapping his knees in utter despair. “What kind of deal are you try­ing to swindle this time?” he asked. “Let’s be reasonable, Private Mul­vehill,” I said, patting him reassur­ ingly on the shoulder. “As you know, I am now working on Captain Winkel’s sympathies to get a fur­ lough sometime in February . . . the first half of February.” “I know what’s coming,” he screamed. “And I won’t do it! I can’t do it!” “Now, as you know, furloughs are laden with little expenses—neces­ sary little expenses. To help me along with the load, Sergeant Sher and Private Bushemi have already made philanthropic little loans. I have your name on my honor roll here, Lieuthomas. What’s the do­ nation?”The Mulvehill cringed and edged away. “What do you need—from me?”“Well,” I estimated, “I should say that ten dollars'.” “Great gods and refugee chil­ dren,” he gasped. “Ten dollars he says yet! Why don’t you ask me for my life’s blood? Six dollars he owes me already and now he’s asking— oh, I can’t stand it! I can’t stand it! Take him away!”“My life’s blood,” he moaned. “Where’s the six I lent you two months ago?”“That W^ only five weeks ago,” I reminded him gently, “and I’ve already paid two of that back. Three weeks ago I paid it back.” “Yeah,” he protested, “but you borrowed it back the next day.” He rose and paced the floor. “What are they doing to me? My life’s blood they would draw from my veins? Thirty-six measly little dollars a month I make—and he wants ten dollars! Maybe I’m Win- throp Rockefeller I should lend out ten dollars a-clip! Thirty-six dol­ lars, and he wants half!” “You see, Lieuthomas, a sad and work-worn creature—an Alice sit-by- the-fire whose only hope for the fu­ ture is in the faint glimmering hope of a furlough. Day after day, week in and week out, I have worked my frail -fingers "to the shoulder blade to make, things pleasant for you and Bushemi and'Bishop. I have patched your quarrels with the mess ser­ geant. ' I have saved you from the terrible wrath of provoked Rebels. I have sat here at night, sewing but­ tons on my blouse so that you wouldn't have' to wear it hanging, open on your merry jaunts to town. Money could not pay for the things I have done for you and Bushemi. And now this. Ten dollars between me and spiritual starvation—and no ten dollars. How sharper than a serpent’s tooth.”“Don’t talk like that, Hargrove,” he said, his voice cracking. "Put me down for ten.”-K a- There was a little note stuck in my typewriter when I came back from prowling for news. It looked like Private (“One-Shot”) Bushemi’s typing. “The stockholders of the Union of Hargrove’s Creditors,” it read, “will hold a business meeting this evening about seven o’clock in the latrine of Barracks No. 2, Head- NV.l4.tl.SERVICE. quarters Battery. Please be present or we will beat your head in.” It was the day before my furlough, so I got the general drift. The vul­tures who were contributors to the furlough would probably stand around frowning and figure oul some sort of budget for my vaca­tion. I could picture the blue-nosed demons slashing away at my enjoy ment. The meeting had an unexpectedly small attendance; Maury Sherl mess sergeant of Battery D of the Third and chairman of the ways and means committee of the Union; Pr! vate Bushemi, principal stockholdei and president; and Private First Class Thomas James Montgomery Mulvehill, chaplain. Private Mulvehill beamed. “Ser­ geant Hart sends his regrets. He has a heavy heavy in Lillington. H« is with us in spirit, though.” “Come in, drip,” said Bushemi. Sergeant Sher got down to busi cess. “I’ve got to hand it to you, son,” he said. “Gone through this much of the month and still haven’t tried to get any of your furlough money back from the chaplain! We’re all proud of you.”“Shucks,” I blushed. “ ’Twern’t nothin’. I was able to bum a ciga­ rette here and there.” “McGee,” said Mulvehill, clearing his throat, "you leave tomorrow for New York, where there are many snares to trap the unwary. Don’t buy any gold watches in the park or any stolen furs anywhere. You know, I presume, about buying the Brooklyn Bridge.” “Now, we don’t have any restric­tions about the way you use yout money,” said Bushemi. “Only last time you spent too much money or “Little man,” she said, “trill y 6H please ask the waiter for more wa­ ter?” taxicabs. You’ll have to use tire buses and subway more this trip. All the shows you want to see, all the books you can buy—but taxicabs only for very special dates.” “Somebody has been exaggerat­ ing this taxicab—” I began. “Taxicabs,” Sher broke in, “only for very special dates. You may go to the opera once if you sit down­stairs and twice if you sit in the Famile Circle. You are not to buy more than six theater tickets.. In uniform, you can see all the movies you want for two bits each.” “And be conservative in tipping the waiters,” said Mulvehill, tapping his glasses on the window sill. “Very conservative. Short-change them, it necessary.” “Tell him about the budget,” said Bushemi, with unnecessary impa­ tience.“As the matter stands on the fur­ lough deal,” said Sher, “you ewe Bushemi 22 dollars, me 10, Mulve­ hill 10, Hart 10. That’s 52 dollars. Counting the ten you’ll wire Bushemi for before the week’s over, it’s 62. With what money we have taken from you and given to the chaplain during the past few weeks, you should make out all right.” “Must I be treated as a child?” I asked. “When you get back broke, Mc- Gee,” said Mulvehill, “you are not to eat breakfast at the Service Club. You are not to take out any post exchange.books. You will get yout cigarettes from Sergeant Sher, who will ration them out. to you as pet budget.” -Bi- Sergeant Sher, Private Bushemi and the other members of the Unioc of Hargrove’s Creditors would have been quite pleased at the sight. In­ stead of spending their money lavish­ly on taxicab sightseeing trips and expensive shows, I was dining quiet­ ly in a conservative grillroom with tee Redhead. We weren’t even dis cussing ways to spend their bard earned money. "Little man,” she said, “will yes please ask the waiter for mon water?” “I beg your pardon,” he said, rather unctuously. “There is a BI teen million gallon shortage in wa­ ter at this very instant. On the other hand, madame, all supply ships tc Great Britain use Scotch whisky at ballast for the return trip. ..Perhaps madame would like a glass of Scotch whisky?” The Redhead lifted an eyebrow. “I wonder,” she said, “what thty use in the finger bowls here—rub­ bing alcohol? I do not want Scotch whisky. I want water.” “It is as madame wishes,” the waiter said, bowing from the knees. He walked away and returned again to lean against a post. The Red­ head drummed her fingers on the tablecloth. “Don’t be afraid of him,” said tht Redhead. “Call his bluff.” (TO BF, CONTINUED) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I CHOOL L e s s o n By HABOLD L.

HONORING OUR PARENTS LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:12; Luke 2:48- Si; Mark 7:6-13; John 19:25-27.GOLDEN TEXT—Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.-— Ephesians 6:1. Right relations between children and parents have much to do with the peace and prosperity of a com­ munity and a nation. Experience has demonstrated that to be true, but even more basic is the fact that it is- in accord with the promise of God. One of the bad breakdowns in modem life is that of proper honor and obedience to parents by chil­dren. In all too many homes God’s order has been reversed and instead of honoring and obeying their par­ ents, children (both young and old) have taken the place of “boss,” and mother and father must obey if they want peace and rest. The need for our lesson of today is both giVat and acute. The future happiness of hundreds of thousands of children and the present welfare of thousands of neglected and boss- ridden parents will depend on the intelligence and faithfulness with which this lesson is taught in our churches, and the honesty of heart with which we all receive its truth. I. The Command and Promise (Exod. 20:12). We are told by Paul that this is the “first commandment with prom­ise” (Eph. 6:1-3). The Lord was not making a bargain with man, or seeking to draw out obedience by a prize, but there is obviously a great reward in the observing of this com­mandment. Then, too, as the children of God (if we are such) through Jesus Christ, the first and most important consideration to come before us is, What is the mind and will of the Maker of us all regarding this mat­ ter of the relation between parents and children? His words are plain— we are t£ “honor” our fathers and our mothers. The word “honor” carries with it a great many things, but perhaps the three outstanding elements are respect, obedience, and affection. Our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Saviour and then the Example of believers, presents a beautiful pat­tern of true obedience to this com­ mandment.H. Willing Obedience (Luke 2:48- 51; John 19:25-27). The fact that Jesus was God mani­ fest in the flesh only enhanced His conduct. He who is divine presents an example of obedience and con­sideration both as boy and man which we do well to emulate.I. As a Boy (Luke 2:48-51). The boy Jesus, increasing “in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man” (v. 52), had come to His twelfth year and with His parents had gone up to Jerusalem to cele­ brate the Passover. There moved in His heart the con­ viction that He must now be about. His Father’s business—an altogeth­ er proper and commendable pur­pose, but one which resulted for the moment in separation from His parents. This was far more seri- ms than a physical separation, for ive read that they did not understsnd Him (v. 50). Tragic indeed are the conse­ quences of our failure to understand our children. Notice, however, that Jesus did not withdraw Himself from their watchful care, nor refuse to obey them even though they failed to understand Him. Equally tragic are the results of hasty and bitter sep­ arations brought about by the dis­obedience of children. 2. As a Man (John 19:25-27). Th* value of our lesson will be greatly reduced if we see only the responsi­ bility of children while they are young. We are the children of our parents as long as we and they five. One marvels at the carelessness and hardness of heart that will per­mit men and women who have time and money for everything else, to neglect their aged parents and even shunt them off into a public institu­tion for care. HI. Hypocritical Disobedience (Mark 7:6-13). Such an important commandment naturally held a high place in the thinking of the community. To vio­ late it involved a measure of shame which men sought to avoid. So the Jews of Christ’s day devised a scheme which made it possible for a man to appear to be very religious even as he deprived his- parents of- tee honor and help to which they were entitled by the law of God. The man who was so avaricious that he did not wish to support his aged and needy parents could en­tirely evade that God-given respon­ sibility by declaring that his proper­ ty was “Corban,” that is, dedicated by a vow to God. Thereafter no matter how great was the need of his parents they could receive noth­ing. Thus do men make “tee word of God of none effect” (v. 13) through their traditions. The method differs but the spirit persists even in our day. 1858 11-19 New-Jnmper. /'''OLLEGE girls, business girls, young wives all love the jump­ er!

ACHING HEARTS. Rev. Walter E. Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C- There are so many aehing hearts to­ night To which Id like to bring relief— Something to cheer, uplift and make things right. Something that would remove the grief And bring the balm of gladness in to stay. Tbe joy that in the spirit rhymes, Tl. at turns the darkness of the night to day An I lifts the soul to sunny climos. There are so many aching hearts to- nidht Caused by s') many things of wrong Yes. things that hurt, injure, de­ press and biight; That seem to hold a countless throng. And keeps them from life’s better, higher things Until I’d like to find a cure That would heal .the wounds and re­ move thestings, And make success for all quite sure. There are so many aching hearts to­ night That no man on this earth can heal Though it is well we do wi|h ail our might Tbe things that duty may"reveal; Yet there’s a cure for every human ill Yes, every herrtache. every woe. So I’ll prescribe, and listen, if you will. It’s Jesus Christ who loves us so. There are so many aching hearts to­ night. Then come to Christ with ail your sighs; He’ll bring you joy and make your pathway bright; And help you win life’s pearls and prize— The best there is for you upon the t earth— Health, happiness and the deepest peace— And then beyond He’ll give your soul sweet mirth Where glories never, never cease. Leadership At tbe same time that the leader ship of the'New Deal is cracking upon the FourthTerm rock, the country is being given a demon, stration of unity and forthright ac­ tion by tbe Republican Party. This has been the outline ot A- merican politics for more than a hundred years. Tbe Democratic Partv left the nation disorganized and split into quarrelling factions after the last war, and before this war is ever over factions within the New DeAi are at each others throats. The inner “palace guard" of tbe New Deal cries for a fourth term because it knows that without Roosevelt its- entrenced power is ended. The real Democrats large­ ly remain silent because they know the dangers of saddling tbe country with four more years of New Deal. ism. Republican unity and obvious leadership ability, demonstrated at the Mackinac Island meeting re­ cently, is the same old, solid bea con of security to tbe voters of this nation that it has been so many times before Tbe emphasis is be­ ing placed upon opportunity and jobs after the war while the New Deal still plans in terms of spend­ ing and Government relief lines. There seems ltttle doubt but that Americans will ask the Republican Party to take the wheel of the wavering ship of state in 1 9 4 4 It will he a victory day for Americans when it'bappens. England Did, Got Churchill A number ot the members of Congress who oppose a fourth term and who are seeking an answer to tbe argument that a nation should not cfiange horses In the middle of stream-proposes the slogan: “Eng­ land did, and got Churchill.’’—Ex. Had FeeIingHis Luck Was Running Ont Los Angeles.. —“ My dearest par. euts," began the letter of Navy Lt. (jg) Wallace M. Bonaparte, young Los Angeles lawyer. “I had hoped never to have to write this, for over a long period, even after being sent overseas, I had been safe and secure, but late. Iv I have been in some tight spots, I do nor expect to die In this war —no one does—but I am playing my luck more and more. Only in the event It does not hold out will you get this letter. “It would not be wri’ten now, for I have no premonition of death, were it not. that I know full well the place that I and my personal welfare plav in your lives and in your lives and in your hearts. This cannot ease your grief, but it may serve to convey mv frame of mind at the prospects of losing my life, and my frame of mind may be -of some importance to yon. “At first when I knew I was in danger I thought a lot about it. I worried continually, frantically, at the thought of all the happiness I would miss in my married life that started out so wonderfully, and of All the happiness I would miss in mv married life that started ont so wonderfully, and of how you, who have built your lives around my health and happiness and success, would feel. “After a while I ceased to think of dying. Now I never do—except in moments like this, .when I do so for a definite purpose. I am in- nred to death. If it comes I am mentally and morally prepared. My primary thoughts out here are of life; of winning the war and re turning some day to you and to my dear wife. “I am deeply conscious of what I am fighting for and would not sit at home during this war if I could. What I fight for is not au abstrac tion to me. It is not any vagne ideal of freedom or democracy. I reduce it to the most eU mental of emotions, that of man’s instinctive, dominating, Intense desire to pro tect those individuals whom he holds dearest. I don't claim that this is the reason for any. other man's participation in tbe war. It is my own. “So the fact I may die while I am protecting you does not appall me in tbe least. If I do l shall be happy to have done what I have to preserve your lives and way of and all of the sacrifice and effort on your part to rear me as a good citi­ zen, educated and successful, are not wasted. “So although yon will grieve, do not, please do not. be bitter. Know sea- that I am content that I am doing what I want to do and must do. Be proud that you did a good job of rearing me to do what was my chief purpose. Live ont yojr lives to the fullest, without loneli ness or pain. Wherever I am, I will be at peace, and if there is n heaven, I have a dear conscience and clean soul. And know, also that I love you above all and that to me you are the grandest, dearest people in the word." Tbe parents, Mrrand Mrs Joseph Bonaparte, were notified that Lt. Bonaparte was killed in action in tbe South Pacific The letter, en­ trusted to an uncle, then was de livered tp them. Small Business “Blitzed” Chargee that the OPA seeks to drive tbe small meat dealers out of the large chains were made in- New York recently by Frederick Benedict, president of the Retail Butchers Pro­ tective Association of Brooklyn. “One of our members wasinform- ed by an OPA official that tbe plan is to ran Bmall businessmen out of busi­ ness," Mr. Benedict told Internation- al News Service. No More Black-Outs? We suppose that elimination of the civilian aircraft warning ser vice ordered by the civilian warn, ing service ordered by the War De­ partment will also mean tbe end of the practice black-outs in sections so far removed that from the coast, that to some of us this part of the civilian defense program seemed rather far-fetched, to put it mildly. We can understand the necessity for dim-outs, and continued prac­ tice black outs along tbe shores, where a stray subamrine might bob up any day or night and fire a few shells into a town jnst for the sport of it. Tbe Germans engaged in such pastimes during the last war, and coast dwellers need to be on the alert for such emergencies. Bat at tb* stage of war’s progress there is as.niuch chance of a successful axis air raid on the American mainland as getting a telephone connection with the man In the moon. Knowing that we are joined by many thousands who feet the same way about it, we express the hope, that we have heard tbe last of the hideous black-ont siren alarms in Statesville. We are, nonetheless, grateful to tbe many busy citizens who volun­ teered their services and gave so freely of their, time and effort, to tie tbe local warning service effectively into the eastern defense network. At the time of the Pearl Harbor at tack, snch protection seemed well worthwhile, and while tbe need for it has passed, we must not forget that patriotic group who unselfish Iy volunteered to carry out a thank less task, often meeting resentment in the performance of their duties. —Statesville Daily. Picks Cotton On 84th Birthday Mrs. Laura Jecuings was 84 years oid one day this week and by way of celebration she took herself to tbe cotton fields, white for the picking, and brought in 74 pounds of cotton —also a pound for every year. The family was afraid she was stepping out a bit too much but she said she would stop when she got tired and that she guessed anyhow she was old enough to have a say a bout how she spent her o*n birth­ day. And so they just stood back and let her pick and she was pone the worse for.it.—Statesville Daily. Wanted To Keep Names Ont The older newspaper reporters will readily recall that half a century a- go, and perhaps less, everytime a man was arrested and indicted for gambling, fighting or driving an auto while intoxicated, about* his first thought was to try to keep his name as well as the offense of the papers. Most of tbe papers, in the State, it appears now refuse to leave any name out, that is, if a party is in­ dicted and tried ia one of the courts. Tbe guilty parties; it appears, no longer importune the editors or re­ porters to omit their names when writting a story about an alleged offense They seemed to have learn­ ed that it no longer will do any good.’ This point was stressed the other day when an appeal was made to tbe police in a neighboring city bv a young man convicted of drunken driving, to use their influence to have his name kept out of the paper, He was promptly told that was a matter for the newspaper’s consideration and futhermore that he was entitled to no sympathy. ,People who are convicted in courts of justice on anything but minor charges must be ready to suffer tbe resulting publicity. They have no business to come to a newspaper or have anyone else come on their be- half, to have their names kept out of the press. Publicity has been, and always will he one of the best crime deterrents.—Twin-City Sentinel. Let Us Pray (Br Rev. Vtr D Thompson) What is your feeling with refer- ence to prayer? In your estimation is prayer a load or lift? Is it a drag or an inspiration? Ts it a clog or a motor? Is it a thing drsb and mo- notonous or colorful and buoyant? What is vour answer? Much de- pends or it? If prayer is to you nothing but a burden then you will soon grow tired of its practice and it will cease to function in your life ss a force. But on the other band, if prayer is a pleasure and a jovful habit then its practice will produce power in the soul and radiance in the life. When burdens are heavy and cares are grievous prayer makes us strong to endure. When we have fallen in­ to sin it is praver that shows us the the way to God’s forgiving love. When we cannot see beyond earth and its vexatious, problems prayer opens up to us an eternal horizon When we find ourselves far removed from loved ones prayer serves to bring them near through Christ : What a.blessing prayer can be­ stow upon us! What a boon it can be to us! Let us explore its riches and claim its benedictions. Prayer is a lift rather than a load. Motherless - Out in Michigan an inducted father took his two motherless daughters to camp because he had nowhere to leave them. Up in Varroont tbe father of two pre Pearl Harbor children 4 and 6, has been reclassi­ fied I-A and is trying desperately to discover wbat he can do about them and their invalid mother when he is called into the army. Small wonder Congress is upset a- bont the father draft. Such situra- tions are political dynamite. They also are extremely unjust. Rules are rules but in the matter of drafting fathers each case must be consider­ ed separately; O ur Blum’s A lm anacs for 1944. will be bere soon. Parking: $100 A Day On August I, Federal Works A gency leased tbe Capital Garage in Washington at the “small" price of $1 3 0 ,0 0 0 a year. Newspapers kept a check on use of tbe garage by tbe agency and discovered that an average of less than 1 0 cars a day were.being park­ ed in tbe garage, although it was built to accommodate 1 ,5 0 0 cars, being the third largest in the Unit­ ed States. Mrantime 4oo private car-owners, who used to park in the garage when it was privately-owned and operated are somewhat put out to find space in downtown Washing, ton. On the basis of present use of tbe ga age it is costing Jioo every ,working day in the year to park every car that uses the space. Uncle Sam really treats his - cars right.

Sena, tor Johnson, Democrat, Colorado, declared: “People generally are sympatbe. tic with the objective of bolding down prices, but the unreasonable ness of some of the OPA regula­ tions are driving them mad. “ Some of tbe regulations are so voluminous and so restrictive that it is almost impossible to operate under them." Cureless Talk— AU of us have noticed posters wh ch pictured a slain soldier or sailor, and tbe posters usually sav Careless talk did this," meaning that we should keep from talking a. bout military matters lest the enemy get some vital information. But it seems that at least on one occasion one of the posters was used to call attention to another tvpe of casualty. A couple had just been bitched by the parson and some one had pasted a sign on tbe back of their car which said “Just Married.” A right under that sign they placed part -of one of tbe war post, ers, wh ch said “Careless Talk Did This".—Ex.

Delos W heeler Lovelace Consolidated Features.—'WNU Release. EW YORK.—Post-war plans are ’ also occupying our Abner H. Ferguson, commissioner of the Fed­ eral Housing administration. With Millions of Small homes? One Homes With War may gather RestrictionsEnded fJ om MT;Ferguson s pleasant predictions that small homes will pop up throughout the country like dandelions as soon as wartime restrictions are lifted. Reminding that the FHA needs no new legislation to go into im­mediate action in the small- home field, and pointing out that there is still available practical­ly half a billion dollars of un­ used insurance authorization, Ferguson talks of two million homes per year tor ten years after the swords are beaten back into plowshares. Meanwhile he urges home owners to keep np repairs. A Democrat, a Mason, a married man and a father, Ferguson has been with the Housing administra­tion since 1934. First he was as­ sistant counsel, then general coun­sel, then assistant administrator and, since 1940, administrator. He got his law degree at Georgetown university in 1904. Before that he attended a military school. He lives in Washington, D. C. But he was born in 1881 in Paris, Va. There are 19 Parises in the encyclopedia not counting Paris, France, but the one in Virginia doesn’t appear at ail. It must be mighty small. But when Mr. Ferguson’s charming new homes begin to rise, Paris, Va., will begin to grow. And so will all the other Parises. CURPRISE parties take the place of tea parties in the capital these days. One of the most successful was the recent appointment of AbeLincolnishfYet st^ftinius Ed Stettinias Came Jr. as un- Up the Easy Way der * secre;tary of state. Many names had been ban­died about in connection with this post, but whoever thought of the handsome hard-working lend lease administrator? Stettinlus was in San Francis­co when the surprise exploded. It may have been worked out by telephone. No less than three ’phones have always decorated his almost bare desk in the al­most bare office he occnpied as lend lease administrator. One was appropriately white; that ran to the White House. Crisp memos are another favorite aid to Mr. Hull’s new second in command. Memos are pepper and salt to the big dish of work he con­sumes each day. Washington knows him as a terrific worker. He is banging away sometime^ as early as five and six in the morning. His father was a J. P. Morgan partner and yonng Edward at­tended the University of Virgin­ ia and married a Richmond belle. Nevertheless he went to work in 1924 for General Motors as a common laborer. He was vice president by 1931, and in 1936 U. S. Steel made him chair­ man of the board. President Roosevelt has used him in vari­ous important jobs. He took charge of lend lease two years ago. Forty-two years old, he likes his 500-acre Virginia farm, horses, scrap books about his three sons, raising turkeys and collecting ancient vehi­cles. WITH the Germans driven back to the Dnieper and retreating northward in Italy, the president of Turkey seems to be leaning a little Turkish President r^cUon^ot WillKnowWhento the Unit- Get Off the Fence Nations from the carefully perpendicular position he has maintained heretofore on the continental fence. Gen. Ismet Inonu is one of the most astute diplomats in the global picture. He trained under the crafty Mustapha Kemal Ataturk, whom he succeeded as president when Ataturk died in 1938. Even Ataturk had no diplo­ matic device so effective as In- onu’s deafness. In a tight cor­ner, the president jost plain fails to hear. He mislaid his ear­ phone when Franz von Papen came looking for a pal in 1939. But from all accounts he was hearing excellently duiing our Archbishop Francis J. Spell­man’s recent visit. He reads English, French and German. Small and insignificant, Inonu was nevertheless rated a good general in 1922 in Anatolia. When Ataturk in­ troduced Turkey to surnames in the western style, Ismet took his from Inonu, scene of his famous victory over the Greeks. Before that he was Ismet Pasha. Fifty-eight years old, he has a wife, two sons, and a host of friends, too, who call him affable and kind­ ly, although his soldiers found him a strict disciplinarian. Once every year he • Ssks 10,000 children to his villa and gives them a bag of candy each. Axis Soldiers Work in U. S.—at Prison Camp *3 At Aliceville, Ala., is the country’s IaTgest war prison camp.

CWNU Feature—Titrw rS special arrangement with The Aroericaii Magazine,} For a long time the air has been vibrant with the hope of quick vic­tory. Well, in my opinion, we’re not going to have it. The German-Japa- nese portion ,of the Axis isn’t a push­ over.I believe two years of hard fight­ing on the fronts of the world and two years of increasing sacrifice at home lie ahead of us. Two years, at least. We must work harder, go without more things, lose more and more lives. .I say this with a deep conviction of our ultimate and inevitable vic­ tory. CaU me gloomy, if you wish, but my optimism has been unwaver­ ing from the beginning and will not change until we have won, Consid­ ering all the reaUties of this vast conflict, I am reaUy predicting a short war for us. Five more years, of it would make a long one, and we can have a long one if we let down the war effort because of over­ confidence.This is a highly technical war. In World War I, men were sometimes sent overseas with a few months' training. While I cannot give you the actual figures, I may say that it takes almost a year to make a fairly finished army ground soldier out of a recruit, sometimes even longer if the man is given special­ ized training as well.It takes at least a year and a half from the time a young bomber pilot first puts on uniform until he carts a load of bombs over the enemy. The training of fighters and bom­bardiers takes almost as long. Re­member that the youngsters who are being drafted now wiU probably not see active service for a year or two years from now. The army and navy don’t think the war wiU be over quickly. MUst Adjust Weapons. As the war progresses and we en­ ter France, Norway, China or Ger­ many, it may be necessary to ad­just our fighting tools to new condi­tions. When we first entered North Af­rica with an experimental tank crew to serve with the British, we had to redesign a turret to give a wider horizontal range to the gun. Back went word to the factories. “Time lost!” they cried. “These fellows don’t know what they’re doing.” But they do know: that’s why they change. If Germany comes out with a fighter that ean down our B-17s, we’ve got to change. I have no desire to wet-blanket our national optimism. I simply want to see It endure through the long months of hard fighting and hard working we have ahead of us.But our over-confidence sometimes leads to relaxation, and relaxation leads to a longer war.Soldiers in battle do' not reflect. This moment is always the moment for the supreme effort. It is only we who have time to sit down and re­ flect, who begin to ’question the war aims of our Allies, and begin to bicker about postwar plans. The fighters don’t do it. Russia and China don’t do it. Best Army in History.It cannot be assumed that China,. because she has fought bravely for five years, can fight forever. But we are on the offensive with sol­ diers, sailors and marines trained to the hilt and equipped as no army or navy in history was ever equipped. We know how well they fight. I be­lieve we will have victory in 1945 against both Germany and Japan. I do not think that is long to wait.The Axis powers were preparing for a world war eight years before they marched, the Japanese much longer. They have been preparing to fight us ever since they said hello to Admiral Perry.We were not prepared; here in the Ignited States we had done too little up to Pearl Harbor, fiat’s why some of our stocks of vital ma­ terials are low. Long ago, our ene­ mies keyed their industries to war production and since the war began they have expanded these indus­tries. Today they have more pro­ducing plants than when the war began. I have talked with a lot of army and navy men, and I have not met one who believes we can win a quick victory. We must send our men across seas. The enemy’s men are fighting in their own front and back yards. We must send our men everything they need—oil, food, clothing, bul­ lets, tanks, planes, soap and tooth­picks—in the North African cam­paign, 700,000 items in all. And a ship in which ,we send men and supplies is a mere speck in the ocean. A ship can’t carry much, and a cargo plane even less, but everything we send to the front must be sent that way. It takes time, and more and more ships and planes. • C LA SSIFIED department PHOTOGRAPHY TO EB PICTU RE And NAMB on 100 Dhoto stam ps, postage size Icom any photo or negative w hich is returned postpaid for $3.

If,you want to get the most ont of your'meat, place the shank bone to the right of the carver, the thick, meaty section to the right of the platter. . Plan Long Career, Much Variety for Leg o’ Lamb Roast H you plan a long and much- varied career for your roasts, you will not only have delicious meals from them but you will work a won­ derful saving on points. ' Take a roast leg of lamb, for in­stance. If you have it on Sunday baked in all its glory to a nice golden brown, you can still have meat on Monday by creaming the leftovers and serving in a noo­dle ring, and then again on Tuesday with vegetables as a salad. Yes, there you have three deliciously different ways of serving from just one cut of meat. A wonderful point-stretcher? Yes, indeed! Don’t be scared of the leftovers when you chart your course ahead. Giving the roast this three-way ca­ reer makes it an economical pur­chase even for smaller families. Proper cooking prevents excess shrinkage. Proper carving will avoid needless waste. A slow oven is best for roasting to prevent shrinkage. Roast Leg of Lamb. Do not remove fell. Put leg, skin side up on a rack in roasting pan. Season with salt and pepper. If us­ ing a meat thermometer, make an incision into the roast, and insert center of thermometer so bulb reaches center of roast and does not rest on either bone or fat. Place roast uncovered into a slow oven (300 degrees) until done. Three to 3% hours is the time limit required. If a thermometer is used, the meat is done to medium when it registers 175 degrees F. or well done when the thermometer registers 180 degrees F.. When serving, garnish pear halves, centers filled with mint jelly and leaf. How to Carve Lamb. The leg of lamb should be placed before the carver so that the shank bone is to his right, and the thick, meaty section to the right side of the platter. Different roasts will not always have the same surface uppermost because of the different right and left legs. This, however, does riot affect the method of carv­ing. Insert the carving fork firmly in the large end of the leg and carve two or three lengthwise slices from the near thin side. Turn the roast so that it rests on the surface just cut. The shank bone now points up from the platter. Insert the fork in the left of the .roast. Starting at the shank end, slice down to the'leg bone. Parallel slices may be made until the stitch bone is reached. One- quarter to three-eighths of an inch is a desirable thickness. With the fork still in place, run the knife along the leg bone releasing all the slices. Is there'lamb leftover from Sun­ day? Cut up the remainder of the lamb in cubes and serve it thus: Creamed Lamb and Peas in Noodle Ring. (Serves 6) Noodle Ring: Cook 8 -ounce pack­ age of wide noodles as directed on package, drain and rinse. Combine with 4 tablespoons melted butter or substitute and put in greased 1-quart ring mold.

Pawley, who ha.s appeared in “G Man,” “Jesse James,” and several hundred other pictures, will play the part of the crusading “Steve Wil­ son,” Managing Editor of the Illus­trated Press, in the new “Big Town” series, Tuesdays over CBS. This ED PAWLEY season the series will be concerned with the American press' unceasing battle against subversive influences and fifth column activities. Nancy Kelly sang and danced as a child performer in vaudeville, but only in her latest picture does she get a chance to do it for the cam­ eras. She’s the feminine charmer of "Tarzan’s Desert Mystery"— plays a chorus girl stranded in the Sahara.

It was on NBC that they first ap­ peared, and rose to radio fame. James Jordan, 19-year-old son of Fibber McGee and Molly, makes his screen debut as one of the sons of Maj. Frank Cavanaugb in RKO’s "The Iron Major,” which stars Pat O’Brien.

It’s “the story of two gentle people, a man and a woman, whose love beats against the grim events of a world at war.” Gloria Holden says a compliment Spencer Tracy paid her has -Influ­enced her acting career more than any other one thing. Appearing in “Test Pilot,” with Tracy and Clark Gable, she played the widow of a pilot killed on the eve of their honey­ moon. She finished theNscene in which Gable gave her the prize mon­ ey that was to have paid for the honeymoon; Victor Fleming, the di­ rector, had made her cry steadily for 15 minutes before she went into it. “Honey,” said Tracy, “You don’t have to ask anybody for anything when you can act like that!” One sure-fire way to make an Aus­tralian mad is to let him hear an American actor use a cockney ac­cent when playing an Australian. Alan Carney, one ef the best dialect actors in radio, perfected his "Aus­sie” accent by talking to Australian newsmen at their News Service head­quarters In New York.
