Going to rain, going to shame. Wasting his talent, losing his name Blighting the life that gave him birth. Cursing his home, cursing the earth. Making his way to hell below To writhe in pain and endless woe— SOMEBODY LOST! Somebody lost! Some mother’s boy Who Las destroyed her peace and joy. Depending the furrows on ber brow, Making her life with sorrow bow Robbing her checks of the healthy glow. Making her locks as white as snow. Blighting her life, taking her breath, Sending her to an early death— Somebody lost! A precious girl Who might have helped to bless the world, Had someone spoken to her word She wishes that she might have heard; Or had they reached a helping hand Before she came to understand That life is not of simple worth To waste in folly, sin and mirth— SOMEBODY LOST! Somebody lost! 'Tis somebody's child Out on the ocean deep and wild, Tbe waves roll high, the breakers roar. Dashing him to destruction’s shore No light across the waves doth shine. Nobody throws to him a line, No body tries to save his soul As sin’s great waves about him roll— SOMEBODY LOST! Somebody lost! Some dear, dear one, A daughter fair, or a noble son, A father dear, or a mother kind Who ne’er have tried their Lord to find. A stranger chance to be, A pilgrim wandering over the lea, No one tells him of Jesus’ love No one points him to Heaven above, SOMEBODY LOST! Somebody lost! Oh, haste away And seek these precious souls today Before you hear them say "Too late, The Master’s closed the pearly gate.” Oh, bring them to the Savior’s fold Tbat they may walk the streets of gold In Aeaven above, where all is fair, Where they shall God’s rich glory soare— FOREVER SAVED! Registered Mail Over seas Atlanta, Ga.—Small articles of in trinsic value mav be Bent by regist ered mail to servicemen and women at APO addresses outside the contin ental United States, Major Robert H. McCormack, Fourth Service Com mand assistant postal officer anno unced today. New postal instruc tions also require that registered ar ticles weigh no more than eight ounces and that they be specifically requested by the addresses.

Tbis registered service is intended practically to cover watches, eye glasses, fountain pens, and other items not readily available overseas.

Another disillusioned bureaucrat declared that if all the people who were In favor of "lettering Uncle Sam” do it could see the swamp in which planners put millions of dol lars’ worth of housing, they would change their tune. AU in all, the day long rain proved quite a few points aginst the New Deal. BUYEWftI WIR BONDS i ****** * Poor Old Alben Barkley Senator Alben (Off-Again-On-A- gain) Barkley (Democrat) of Ken tucky, writing in Collier’s, a nat ional magazine, makes the point that mayors of various cities are eleoted four, five and even up to ten terms, concluding from this fact that representative government csn function no matter how many times a President is elected to office. Well, Alben, how about the com parison between the office of mayor in the average little city to the of fice of President of the United States? Isn’t it like comparing an ant to a dinosaur? The two offices are both political offices. Agreed. But from that point on, all similarity ceases Presidents have the power to ap point ambassadors to other nations; to appoint Federal judges. Presi dents have power to appoin cabi- nent members, who in turn have j jrisdiction over employees iu ev ery state in the nation and in the island possessions and territories outside this country. Presidents have power over an enormous amount of Federal lar ges, which is administered in part by mayors and other public officials. The President today has more than 3 ,000,000 Federal employees nnder him. Does any mayor have one- tenth this number? No, and the average mayor has less than one- tbousandth this many employees under him Even to compare the two offices is two show utter cynicism for the intelligence of the people or com plete disregard for the facts. If We’re Saved I want to say I am glad if we’re saved we know it, there’s no doubt about it. Too, many people have religion warship some thing and leave God out. I’m glad I know I’m saved and have a Salvation you know about once you receive it. I can say with Job, "I know my Redeemer livetb.” (Job. 19:25 ) I know the Saviour I love is the Christ. (John 4:25 42) I know all things what ever it be work to gether for good to them that love God. (Rom. 8 :28). Sometimes things come our way we can’t understand, often seem’s it can’t be for the best yet at the end we know ail things were for good. ForJesus doeth all things well. Never makes a mistake and never fails. " I know whom I have believed and am per suaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.” (II Tim. 1:12) and again I sav friend, if you’re know it. You know when it hap pened I know when I was saved "for I was there.” There’s no doubt in my mtnd. " I know when be shall appear I shall be like him,” have a new body like unto his own glorious body. For "we know we have passed from death unto life because we love the b ethers.” If you don’t know if you are saved or not. I beg you as one who loves you to get right witbGod for we know not what may be tomor row. Seek the Lord while he may be found; call upon him while be is near. Friend, I say to you I KNOW I am saved. I hope you'll soon know if you don’t. MRS ELBERT DUNCAN, Kannapolis, N. C. The Future As An Issue San Francisco, Calif.; Dewey may not be so well Qualified social Iy as Mr. Roosevelt to give teas to British and Russian big shots, but you can rest assured that Dewey, if elected, will leave the war to the Army and Navy, as he should, and will concentrate on providing a se cnre fmure for all of us. That is the real issue in this election, so accordingly. A. C. GREEN, Jr. Making Obeisance Union Republican. Dr. Julian Miller, famous editor of The Charlotte Observer, is not only the outstanding editorial writ er In this section of the country if not the entire south, but he is a Democrat who puts his conscience first. He bows no knee to the De mocratic party and wears no man’s collar. He permits no man to tell him wbat to write and how. He is FREE, thank high heaven, and the country needs more like him His recent editorial on "Making Obeisance” is one of the best we have seen. Here it is, read every word of It for it is full of dynamite: One trouble with present day dav Southern Democrats, leaders as well as followers, is that they have learned to well to obey; to bow the head and bend the knee. It does not go well with the Southern tradition of e /ery honor- est man carrying bis neck straight and looking any man in the eye. Sidney Hillman, who is no De mocratic national convention, to which the simon-pure Democrats had to hasten to loam bis desires. There they made obeisance. He didn’t go to see them; they hurried up the stairs and across the the royal carpet to the new throne. Could they have this or that? Sir, what about a little vice presi dential nomination? The royal nod delighted; the royal frown was death It was sickening. The courtiers about the throne were a motley crew, anti-Democrats if anything. And to them went some once-proud Southerners, once free men—now bewildered, out of place, assailed with doubts and fears but by their very presence making obeisance. Was it because that are good party men, even as their hearts grew leaden and their souls shrivel ed in the present of this Thing do minating them? There is an obedient to consti tuted authority but who constltut. ed Hillman? Are the Southerners afraid of him? If so they have come Io a pretty pass It is a sad day for a man or for a people when they learn to obey to easily, when they count too care fully che cost of disobedience. How Planning Works When a full day of rain recently indundated Washington, the per. sonal effects of hundreds of Feder al workers were ruined by the flood waters. There was a good deal of surprise —and chagrin—among the bureau crats, who learned that only those bouses built by Federal agencies had suffered from the flash flood and that houses planned by private contractors had not been flooded. One Federal workers pointed out that it looks as if the Federal plan- ners who are always talking about "flood control” all over the nation, apparently can’t even control the flash floods i n Washington — through an adequate sewage system.

Have You Been Married 75 Years Plans to honor persons been mar< ried for 75 years or more are being prepared by the committee in charge of celebrating the Seventy-fifth An niversary of the flour mill company founded by the Pillsbury family in Minneapolis in 1869. The initial plan is to send a 75th anniversary cake to each of these couples who were married in the year the company was started or be fore. According to population fi- gures, analyzed b v statisticians, there may be 250 or more couples in the United States who are observing their diamond anniversaries. The committee is, however, inter ested in the life story of these peo ple and has asked The Davie Record to assist it in locating these couples. The married life of the people will have spanned a period of remarkable development in tuis country. Their early romance would have occured in the closing year of war between the states and the reconstruction period that followed. Among them might be a wife who was a girl of 15 in 1969. She would be 90 this year. Her husband might have been a re turned boy solder, or a youth still in his teens who was inspired by the spirit of the pioneers of that day and struck out at an early age to establish own home. The call of the frontier was strong at that time. Charles A. Pillsbury. raised in New Hampshire, beard it and joined an uncle. John S. Pills* bury, in Minneapolis. The latter became governor of Minnesota and the father of the state university. Charles entered the flour mil! busi ness. The firm he established grew Into a nation-wide organization now headed by .Phillip W. Pillsbury, a grandson Making Obeisance One trouble with present day Southern Democrats, leaders as well as followers, is that they have learn- ed too well to obey; to bow the head and bend the knee. It does not go well with the South ern tradition of every honest man carrying his neck straight and look ing any man in the eye. Sidney Holman, who is no more a Democrat than the devil is an ice man, held court in his hotel room during the Democratic national con vention, to which the simon-pure Democrats had to hasten to learn bis desires. There they made obeisance. He didn’t go see them; they hur ried up the stairs and across the royal carpet to the new throne. Could they have this of that? Sir, what about a little vice' presidential nomination? The royal nod delight ed; they royal frown was death. It was sickening. The courtiers about the throne were a motley crew, anti-Democrats if anything. And to them went some once-proud Southerners, once-free- men—now bewildered, out of place, assailed with doubts! and fears but by their very presence making obi- isance Was it because they are good par* ty men, even as their hearts grew leaden and their souls shriveled in the presence of this new Thing dO' minating them? There is an admonition to be 0- bedient to constituted authority but who constituted Hillman? Are the Souterners afraid of him? If so they have come to a pretty pass.

A Work Of Faith In Council Bluff, Iowa, is located a Home for orphan and destitutes girls and boys, which is different from any other organization of its kind in the country. This Home was founded on the Promises of God, more than three score years ago, by Rev. J. G. Le- men, a godly man of gigantic and unwavering faith. This Home, which is the Christian Home Orphanage of Council Bluffs, Iowa, is supported by the free will offerings of the lovers of God and Humanity. Thousands of children have passe I through its portals dur ing the long years of its existence. Children who were in the Home, years ago, are now outstanding men and women of t;day; many have won fame and fortune, due to the teachings received while they were children at the Home. These same children had they been left in their original pitiful surroundings, might have helped to fill the penitentiaries of today. The Christian Home Orphanage is a National Home for children; it is located in Iowa, but it is supported by the voluntary contributions of charitable people from all sections of the country. It receives no appro priations of any kind, and employs no traveling agents, but depends en tirely upon God. through you His earthly agents for its support. The Christian Home copducts its own Church and Sunday Shhool; also its day school up to and including the seventh grade. After the children of the Home have completed the seventh grade, they enter the Public Schools of Council Bluffs. Iowa. Many have been graduated with honors from the local High Schools, and then have entered high schools of learning. The work of caring for homeless children and training them to be come Christian men and women, is the most outstanding work of today. The Christian Home Orphanage is doing this work, but it cannot do it Witkont your gift and cooperation. For information in regard to this remarkable Home, write to the Christian Home Orphanage, Council Bluffs, Iowa, and literature will be sent to you. AU contributions sent to the Chris tian Home Orphanage, Council Bluffs, Iowa, are duly acknowledged and credited in the official publica tion "Christian Home" a sample , copy of which will be sent to you upon request.’’ To Wives and Parents of Soldiers If you are sending The Re cord to your husband or son who is in the armed forces, please see that his subscrip tion is paid in advance.

Butterfat Can Be Increased by Water Proper Methods Will Give Better Returns Dairymen whose cows can have a drink of water whenever they want S t-night or day—will get m ore milk end butterfat from the sam e amount of feed and care than the dairym en who w ater their cows only a couple of tim es a day. This has been proven by extensive tests conducted at Iowa state college. The cows while being watered by m eans of w ater bowls drank ap proximately 18 per cent more w ater and yielded 3.5 per cent more milk and 10.7 per cent more butter- iat than while being watered twice a day at the outdoor tank. Conclusions reached from the tests also showed that the tem pera ture of the w ater was not nearly so im portant as the tem perature of the air. In other words, if the cow had to stand outside in near zero weather, sho was likely to drink Ideal Dairy Layout relatively less regardless of the tem perature of the water. As might be expected, the cows drank more as the weather became warm er. The experiments were m ade with water bowls, which are almost im possible to obtain during the war. However, many dairymen can in clude watering inside their barns where the cows would have access at regular intervals. If some method can be devised so that the cow will not have to sip her needed w ater out of an icy tank she will drink m ore w ater, produce more imilk and of a higher butterfat con< ten t If the cow is getting silage or green feed with a lot of m oisture in it, the cow will drink proportion ately less than she will if she is fed entirely on dry feed. There is a ten dency to balance up the total amount of w ater in the feed and Shat drunk. If the feed has more m oisture in it, then the cow drinks that much less. Agriculture In the News Milkweed Floss The milkweed has gone to w ar and no longer can be considered a farm pest. The seeds of the milkweed fur nishes an edible oil, chemical* . Iy sim ilar to soy bean oil. From 1 0 0 pounds of the seed at least 2 0 pounds of oil m ay be extracted. In Canada, the leaves have prov en an excellent source of natural rubber. P e rh a p s th e greatest w ar use is th e f l o s s of milkweed as a substitute for kapok, from which life preservers and linings for aviators’ flying suits m ay be m ade.

DAVID ANOINTED KING LESSON T E X T -I Sam uel 16:1-5, 11-18. GOLDEN T E X T -M an looketh <w the out. w ard appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.—I Sam uel 16:7. Outward appearance, by which m an judges, is alm ost always de ceptive. God knows the heart and is able to evaluate a m an correctly. In calling David, the ruddy shepherd boy, to be king, God cut across the ideas of men, but He was, as al ways, right. I. A Man from God’s Storehouse (v. I)—“I have provided.” God’s great storehouses are full of blessings, m aterial and spirit ual, but He also has a great and constantly replenished reserve of m en and women from which He calls and sends them forth. The thing we m ust guard against is the Setting of hindrances in His holy way, either in our own lives or in the lives of others. A m an power shortage is very serious, for it simply cuts oil the stream of production without which action becomes impossible. There should never be any shortage of m an power in the Lord’s work, and there would never be any if all His creation were willingly subject to Him. God was ready to set aside Saul, and He had David ready. Samuel the prophet was still grieving over Saul’s failure. In a sense that feel ing for Saul was m ost commend able, but it could not go on. When men, even of our own fam i lies or circle of friends, persist in rebellion against the Lord, we m ust not let our grief hold us back, but move on with the m an of God’s choice. II. A Man Who Had to Be Sought (vv. 2-5)—“Send and fetch him .” Usually those who are quick to offer themselves for an im portant place are not the ones for the place. And those who are sitting around doing nothing but waiting for some honor to come to them , are not the ones to choose. “Let the office seek the m an” is the highst ground, even in politics; surely it m ust be the proper proce dure in spiritual activity. David might well have wanted to be at the place of sacrifice and the feast that day, but since all his family were there, and someone had to care for the sheep, he did it. A m an like that, hard at his work, is well worth seeking when some thing im portant needs to be done. The interesting story of Samuel’s effort to find one among Jesse’s seven sons (w . 6-1 0) is well worth reading. Samuel still had the idea that a king m ust be prepossessing and able to thrill m en by his ap pearance. He should have learned better from his experience with Saul. God put him right (v. 7), and we do well to renew our thinking on that point. The world is in a place where m any leaders m ust be chosen in the months and years just ahead. Will we be eager and willing to have God lead us in our choice? Or will we be swayed by personal interests or political expe diency? IU. A Man of Spirituality (w . 11-13)—“The Spirit of the Lord sam e upon David.” The Holy Spirit, ever active in all periods of Bible history, became the abiding presence in the be liever’s heart after Pentecost, but during the Old Testam ent period He cam e on chosen individuals for a particular work. As David was anointed king the Spirit cam e upon him for that service. In spite of his failings (when he forgot the Lord) David was throughout his reign a spiritually-minded m an who wanted God’s will and His glory to be uppermost. God never calls a m an without enabling him for his task, and the chief and indispensable enabling is that of the Holy Spirit’s power. Like David, we m ay enter upon a God- appointed responsibility without fear or question, simply trusting the Holy Spirit to take, transform , empower, and use us for God’s glory. IV. A Man Willing to Serve (w . 14-18). Upon Saul there cam e tre mendous moods of despondency. These were “from the Lord” (v. 14) in the sense that God perm itted His disobedient and rejected servant to suffer the result of his self-will and failure. How awful it is for anyone to be out of the will of God and conscious of His disapproval. To help Saul in those dark hours David, the sweet singer of Israel, was willing t6 serve with his voice and his harp. How m any thou sands of tim es David has served all the generations since with his psalms. He was a m an of gifts, gladly given for the Lord and for others. Bear in mind that while David was not yet publicly crowned, he was already anointed to be king. Yet he was ready to serve the one whose place he was to take even in his hours of dejection and hateful ill-will.

Boys Couldrtt Stump Naturalist With Humbug The boys thought it would be great sport if they could fool a certain well-known naturalist. So they killed a centipede, then care fully glued on to it a beetle’s head, the wings of a butterfly and the legs of a grasshopper. They packed it in a cardboard box and took it to the great m an. “We found it out in the field,” the leader of the group explained. "C an you tell us w hat it is?” The naturalist studied it for a tim e, then he asked: “ Did this creature hum when you caught it?” “Oh, yes, sir, it did hum ,” cam e the answ er. “Well, in that case,” said the naturalist, “it undoubtedly is a hum bugl” Sewing C ircle N eedlecraft Dept. 564 W.

WARD DONALD REAVIS If there were a few more Sidney Hillman’s lined up for Roosevelt, Tom Dewey might carry the South as well as the North, East and West. The 1944 campaign is getting in full swing. For the next two months there will be much hot air dispensed, many lies told and much money spent. Let's all try to keep in a good humor. Everytime we hear of a drunken man who has been killed or has died as a result of alcohol, we won der who is responsible for his death, the man who legalized the sale, the man who made tne poison or the one who sold it? We wish every voter in the Unit ed States could read the article b> Westbrook Pegler which appeared in the Charlotte Observer of Ang. 29th. If Pegler told the truth, and i t has not been disputed. President Roosevelt isn’t fit to be elected township constable, much less President of the United States. Desp’te the fact that the Gallop Poll says Roosevelt would be elect, ed if the election were held today, we have serious doubts about the matter. So far as we have been able to lealn, no Gallup man has ever Interviewed any citizen, white or black. Democrat or Republican, in this section of the country We wonder if this man Moore who is running for county Com missioner on the Democratic ticket, is the same man who represented Davie county in the legislature a few years ago and had a bill passed extending the terms of the county commissioners to four years when the voters bad elected them for only two years. South Carolina Democratic Ne groes met last week and nominat. ed a Negro tor United States Sena tor. The Negro savs he has a fighting chance to defeat Olin Johnson, white man, who was no minated for' the Senate by the White Democrats in their primary some time ago. This news is re spectfully referred to certain De mocrats in Davie county who once yelled Negro wbon they would meet a Republican at the polls. How times have changed under the New Deal. Davie Soldier Killed Sgt. Baxter R. Huffman, son of Mrs. M. L. Huffman, of Coolee- mee was killed in France on Aug 9th. Sgt. Hoffman was 28 years old, and was the 15th Davie soldier to lose bis life while fighting for his country in the present war.

Good Food For Soldiers Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 22.—When that son, brother, husband or friend who is riding in a B 29 Superfort over Japan, the Phillipines or Lan- cburia, decides it’s cbow time be is I going to eat—hot food. No more dried-out sandwiches and once hot coffee out ot a cold) thermos bottle for him, it was learn ed at the Quartermaster office. Fourth Service Cammand here to-* day, where a new food warmer de. signed especially for bomber crews, f was explained. Until recently men on long bomb ing missions have been supllied with box lunches, but after mis- sions had been flown day in and day out over a period of time, it j discovered that the lunches were returning uneaten, officers ex plained, adding that fighting men | must have hot,' wholesome and nourishing food if they are to do their best; I The new food warmer, whichj solves the problem of properly j feeding the fliers, has six food trays six beverage cups and six soup cups. The food is prepared at the' squadron's mess ball by specially; trained kitchen personnel, placed in the trays and loaded a bo rd the plane. The warmer’s electrical ap pliance is plugged in on one of the plane’s electric circuits a little be fore choW-time and the resdlt is a steaming hot meal something like this: Tomato soup, beef pot oie, pp'aloes au gratin, Harvard beets, j buttered peas, corn bread and but j ; ter,,jelly, apple sauce, cake, hot ' coflee, tea or cocoa. j ; Revival Meeting A revival meeting will begin at j Chestnut Grove, Sunday morning, ' Sept. 10 Services 11:30 and at I night.

Forsyth To Have Fair The Winston-Salem and Forsyth County Fair, always an eagerly anti cipated event in this section of North Carolina will be held October IOth to 14th. Many new attractions and a more diversified agricultural and livestock exhibit is expected to make this the largest and most successful fair that Winston-Salem has ever seen. Prizes will be offesed for the best exhibits from Forsyth and all adjoining counties so that the fair in reality is North-western North Ca rolina’s very own.

One new feature this year will be a rabbit department. Cash prizes and ribbons will be offered for the best breeds and this innovation is expected to prove quite popular. A livestock parade on Frida; of Fair week will be another added at traction while the big Saturday fea ture this year will be a high school band contest for which $1000 in cash prizes will be offered Already all the better known brands of the state have been entered and this promises to be a big day in fair history.

Don’t be surprised if there is a blow-up brewing in Japan not un tike that which nearly bumped off Mr. Hitler recently. This columnist nas reason to believe that things are teething inside Japan right now and that the die is cast against the Fascist m ilitary clique at the top. It was groups of young Fascist officers who shot Tokyo’s leading hioderates back in the days when (t was not yet definitely decided that Japan should conquer Asia Now the moderates are able to say “I tcld you so,” and are beginning to get the upper hand. The Em peror probably will not be a victim of the revolutionary tur moil, for two reasons: (I) He is a m oderate himself, never did go as far as the cut-throat young Fascists, ivas kept m ore or less a palace prisoner by them ; (2) he is better guarded than any other m an in the world. High walls, moats, trained, trusted bodyguards surround him. Not even his personal tailor is per m itted to touch him. Varest inside Japan has not had time to be communicated to Jap troops at the front, nor is it likely to affect outside war areas much. The Jap soldier away from home can be counted on to fight to the very end, be cause he cannot come home un less he is victorious. The code of Bushido does not permit it. The big thing to watch, when and if things inside Japan reach the boiling point, is the Jap fleet. Its officers will be faced with the alternative, under the code, of all committing suicide or sailing into the enemy, no mat ter what the odds against them, and fighting it out.• * * HOOVER’S CHILDREN Bachelor J. Edgar Hoover, who has jailed more desperate crim inals than any m an in history, has a se cret weakness which not many people know about. He likes chil dren. On many an afternoon you will find a group of boys going through FBI headquarters, getting points on crim e detection. If he is not too busy, Hoover himself will take tim e to say hello. Hoover has spent much time studying children, feels that a healthy younger generation is the best insurance against crime, once even wrote a magazine article, “If I Had a Son.” Here is some of the advice he gave: “If I had a son, I’d probably be frightened. I’ve never feared crim inals, but if I were a husband and father I m ight be afraid. So m uch would depend on me. “If I had a son, I’d do one thing. I’d tell him the truth. I’d never let him catch m e in a lie. And in return I’d insist that he tell the truth. . . . When children go astray it isn’t the fault of the children but of their parents. . . . A spoiled boy grows into a spoiled m an. . . . I’d try to be a pal to my boy. . . . I’d encour age him to join <he Boy Scouts and boys’ clubs, but before he joined I'd m ake it a point of getting acquainted with the leaffer of the troop. . . . I’d have my son go to church. W hat’s m ore, I’d go with him. . . . But above everything else, I’d try to understand my son. For if I didn’t I'd be a feilure as a dad.” • » * STALIN-CHBRCHILL CORDIALITY Those who have watched the dip lomatic wheels go round from the close-up inside, report that Stalin and Churchill are now getting along famously. This is im portant because it' was net the case at Teheran, where Roosevelt and Stalin did the getting along and Churchill didn’t. That was when the present Second Front in France was the topic of consider able argum ent and when Churchill, bidding farewell to Stalin, said: “Well, goodbye. M arshal. I’ll see you in Berlin.” “ Yes," replied Stalin; “I in a tank and you in a Pullm an car.” Churchill’s friends point out that at Teheran he was in the early stages of a very severe illness and definitely not himself. Since then, Churchill seem s to have got over any complexes re garding Stalin, and Stalin takes a like position toward Churchill. There has been complete teamwork between the two for some time. Both British and American diplo m ats also pay tribute to the co operation of the Russians in recent months on m ost subjects, even including Poland. The general view in diplomatic circles is that Stalin has been reasonable regarding Po land, • * * MERRY -GO-ROUND (I While big Georgia textile opera tor Scott Russell advises Senator George’s committee on reconver sion, Eastm an Kodak executive Marion B.

I SAT at the recent East-W est All- kid gam e with m y friend Joe Mc Carthy, m anager of the Yankees. Here we watched the picked team s from the E ast and W est, represent ing 28 cities and states, at 17 year’s or younger. And it was here that I saw the soft ■spot of this sport. Baseball is rated our national gam e. There are m ore kids who would rather play baseball than any other sport. Baseball is our greatest gam e. Certainly for our kids. And yet baseball has drawn less su p p o rt from all concerned than any other game. The big leagues, both presidents and all owners, includ ing my good friend Judge Landis, have alm ost completely ignored the young ball players from 13 to 17. The high schools and colleges have been even worse. Our young football players have the best of coaching in high school. They move to the best coaching in college play. They are finished prod ucts when they reach the pros. Our young goiters have the finest coaching and instruction that any one could dem and. All their faults are corrected on the way up. The sam e is true of our basketball players and our track m en. The sam e is true of our swim m ers. They have the best of the coaching—and the best of breaks. Why? They bring money into the box offices. Baseball doesn’t. Any sport that brings in money gets prom pt attention. Those that don’t are ignored. Football gets first recognition, from high schools on up through col lege, on into pro ranks. Why? Many college football team s play to financial clean-ups that run from $500,000 to $1,000,000. Baseball can't even touch these figures. So why bother with base ball? Back to the Kids’ Game Here is the pick of the country's kids playing baseball at the Polo Grounds. They were young, strong, fast and packed with spirit. But anyone could see the instruction they had missed, which young football players, young golfers, young tennis players or young basketball players would have received. On more than one occasion Joe McCarthy, one of the sm artest m an agers baseball has ever known, one of the gam e's closest students— would point out various faults. It m ight be a catcher—it m ight be an infielder—it m ight be a hitter— “ I’d like to have that kid around just a while,” Joe would say. “I’d like to tell him just a few things before his fault becomes a habit.” Bobby Jones, W alter Hagen, Gene Sarazen, Francis Ouimet, Chick Ev ans, these and m any others, were great golfers before they were 21. Golf gave them their chance. Football has been piled up with stars who were 19 or 20. Baseball has known only a few who were big leaguers at this age. The answer is that only a few con nected with baseball have m ade any effort to see that young ball play ers, from 14 to 16, ever get the right instruction. Wish Egan of Detroit is one of the few who has done a fine job along these lines. E gan.has devel oped m ore than a few young stars. George Weiss of the Yankees is an other. There are just a few more. But in the m ain baseball doesn’t look after its own—and its own are the kids who should be the stars of the future, who never get the chance or who drift into other gam es. Minor league m anagers tell m e they get these kids, full of faults, and haven’t the tim e to bother about it. The “naturals” can take care of them selves. So they come from the m inors to the m ajors and are either sent back or hang around for two or three years, to be taught all over. If baseball drew the sam e type of instruction or coaching that football, basketball, golf and tennis get—from the best in the business—there would be a jum p of at least 30 per cent in baseball efficiency between the ages of 19 and 21. But unfortunately in this country too often the dollar com es first. The answer I get is this—“Let baseball sta rt to pay its way and you’ll see a big difference.” It will get the sam e “overem phasis” from coaches and others th at football does now. Pitching Prodigy One of the m ost outstanding pos sibilities at the Kids Game was Frank Azzarello of New Orleans. He J is just 17—a great prospect—a left hander who fought 12 innings with $15,000 Dick Callahan last spring and fanned 18 batters. Frank lost his gam e I to 0 in the 12th. In addition to his brilliant pitch ing Azzarello is also a star outfield er with a Legion batting average of .431. Azzarello is just one of the great kids who played in this game. H iere were at least a dozen others.

Look in g'down a t a burnished B uddha on her desk she m ade three w ishes, one being that she m ight be whisked to a leisurely land of palm s and jade green seas and of delightful people too gallant to take ad vantage of m eekness. L ater she called a t her em ployer's hom e and picked up the invitations. She w as tem pted to buy stam ps for the whole lot and m ail them . CHAPTER H The next instant, as she started to giggle over her rebellious impulse, she unexpectedly burst into tears. This sudden gush of tears, although it took her by surprise, as Paul would have assured her—and as she fully realized herself—was beautiful ly motivated. It wasn’t self-pity. It was fury at her meekness which would permit a selfish, overbearing woman like Mrs. Folsome to ask a girl without a car to deliver thirty silly invitations on a night like this. She leaned against the telephone pole and sobbed, with her bag dan gling from one hand, the cellophane- wrapped packet of invitations limp ly held in the other. Suddenly a man’s deep, resonant voice said banteringly, “Don’t cry, my pretty; I'll buy your violets.’’ She looked up and saw him through twin waterfalls of tears. He had appeared magically from no where. He might have sprung out of the ground. He, too, was lean ing against the pole. He was look ing down at her. There was some thing languid and lazy and perpetu ally relaxed about him, yet there was a hint that, with sufficient prov ocation, he might go suddenly into action. He was a big man of about thirty, with a big head of curly hair above a big sunbrowned face. Everything about him was outsize—his shoul ders, his hands, his mouth. It was a symmetrically sculptured mouth, with the cleanly defined, perfectly matched lips of a Buddha. What she could see of his expres sion through her tears was sympa thetic and not amused. There was something of the sea about him, especially about his eyes. And there was something familiar about him, as if she had met him before. But it was remote and vague. Zorie lifted her face and the light fell upon it. The strange man stared. He jerked his head back. “Hey!” he said softly. His voice sounded breathless. “What the devil are you doing here?” Zorie was bewildered. For a mo ment this man had acted as if he knew her, as if his glimpse of her face had shocked him. Then she realized that he was shocked by the woe in her face. The man had blue eyes, dark blue and clear and attentive. He listened to her with gravity, now and then nodding as if he understood, and now and then smiling quickly as she made a nice point, sometimes only in the back of his eyes, sometimes with his large mouth, and sometimes with mouth and eyes, crinkling them at the corners so that the sun-dark ened skin was starred with flashings of white. And at these moments she could see him more clearly than ever on the bridge of a ship. “And I hadn’t even the oourage,” Zorie concluded, laughing, “to ring the bell again and ask that maid for an umbrella.” He was nodding. He smiled slow ly and mysteriously. “Always, in Case of doubt,” he said in his deep, laconic voice, “obey your first im pulse. Since you haven’t obeyed yours, I will now obey mine.” He reached down and took the packet of invitations out of her hand. Before she could stop him, he had stripped off the cellophane, had torn the thirty invitations lengthwise, had placed the two pads of white strips together, had torn them across, and had tossed the snowy quarters into the trash basket. Zorie gasped and delivered at that moment a small shriek of dismay. He was looking down at her and laughing, and she was laughing now too. There was something uncanny about the influence of this tall, blue eyed young man. It wasn’t so much that his strength gave her the cour age to face the consequences of his act as that he gave her a reckless indifference to them. And in a pre dicament like the one she now faced, what is reckless indifference if not the child of courage? At that instant, a disembodied red face appeared in the doorway of Pro fessor McGonigle’s house and a shrill, irascible voice cried: “Heyi Come here,, dammit!” “Aye, aye, sir!” the tall man an swered. Then a strange thing happened. The man grabbed Zorie and pulled her behind the telephone pole. A pale-green sedan, the kind you rent, with driver, for so much an hour, was coming slowly along Maple Street, making plopping sounds as it went through puddles. A man and someone else—perhaps another man, perhaps a woman—were sitting in the tonneau. The man was leaning forward, looking out the opened window at Professor McGonigle’s house. Then W.N.V. he turned his head and looked in Zone’s direction. She saw his face clearly and she caught the glint of the street light in his eyes and she saw, for just an instant, the small white scar on his dark face. It was about an inch under his left eye. She only caught that glimpse of him because, as the green sedan went by, the man behind her ma neuvered her by the shoulders so that the telephone pole was always between her and the car. When it was halfway down the block, the strong, warm hands on her shoulders relaxed. “Okay,” he said softly. “Taxi!” he yelled. The taxi turned around and came over. It had been parked all this time, she realized, in front of Pro fessor McGonigle’s house. Profes sor McGonigle was the head of the Department of Psychology. The mysterious young man opened the door and said, “Get in.” Zorie got in and sat down, expecting him to follow. He glanced at the meter and gave the driver a bill. “Take this young lady wherever she wants to go,” he directed. He gazed at Zorie, as if he were troubled about her, then he slowly nodded his head, and said, “It’s high time you stopped being so ga ga, isn’t it, baby? Good luck!” He closed the door. The taxi started and Zorie fell back against the seat with a gasp. She was furious again, partly at what he had said, partly because the liveliest episode of her life had end ed, and she was returning to reality. f “Hey,” he said softly, “what the devil are you doing here?” His mystifying spell was broken. Nothing remained of him but his deed and its consequences to her— nothing but her knocking knees, her banging heart, her burning cheeks and her rapid breathing. “Home, Miss Corey?" the driver said. She recognized him as a graduate of several years back for whom she had once copied a term paper. “Yes, Don,” she replied, and won dered what she would say to Mrs. Folsome. The door into the kitchen was open and Zorie saw Ihe usual stack ol dirty dishes in the sink—Aunt Han nah’s luncheon and supper dishes. With her senses sharper than usu al, Zorie looked about the small, fussy, overstuffed living-room. It looked untidy. Ashtrays were full. The room had a stale, smoky smell. She glanced automatically at the onyx clock on the mantel. The time shocked her. It was almost eight- thirty. Paul had said he would drop around at eight. He might have called and, not finding her home, gone away, furious. With a whimper of dismay, she ran to the telephone. She called his boarding-house. He was out still. “It’s high time,” he had said, “you stopped being so ga-ga, isn’t it, baby?”It was indeed, baby. As she stared at her tired, blue eyes, they grew sharper. Behind them, resolution was forming. Here was a girl who was, some day, going to do some thing drastic! The day was coming when no one, not even Paul, was going to push her around. But why not today? The vehemence of her thoughts put color into her cheeks, brilliance into her eyes. “I’ll tell them! No one’s going to push me around any more! I’m sick of it, do you hear?" The telephone rang. She turned so rapidly she twisted her ankle and bumped a chair with her knee. Limping, she ran. It was Paul. The very sound of his voice had the same effect on her that oil has on a ruffled sea. Her tears became tears of glad ness. “Darling!” she caroled. “Zorie, where the devil have you been? I’ve been trying to get you—” “I’m so . . .” die began. “I’ll be late,” he said curtly. “That grandfather of mine just popped into town. I’ve been trying to get away. I wanted to bring my dissertation around.” “Is it done?” she cried. “I don’t know,” he answered in the same cross way. “I was up to my ears in it when that old pest found me. I’ll be over as soon as I can. Goodby.” He hung up. Zorie looked at the receiver in her hand, and her eyes were quite dry. She was seeing things, once more, in a clear perspective. Paul was not cross because of her but be cause of his grandfather—Admiral Oliver Hazard Perry Duncan, re tired, who had, Paul had often men tioned, the most maddening way of dropping in without warning on his twelve scattered grandchildren and upsetting their lives with his im possible demands. He was a patri arch of the old school, a tyrant. He was one of the richest sugar plant ers in Hawaii and when one of his grandchildren opposed him, he would make vague references to drawing up a new will and leaving his millions to charity. Zorie understood all this, yet, she reasoned, Paul should not have tak en it out on her. Paul was often inconsiderate. Just then the doorbell rang. A tall, lanky youth with worried brown eyes was at the door. Zorie concealed her disappointment, and laughed anyway. For here was a man whose disposition needed smoothing. He was Jimmy Hoff- brower, a junior majoring in econ, and she knew that he was making pretty bad weather of several courses. “Come in, Jimmy.” “You know a lot about econ,” Jimmy said anxiously. “If you see anything wrong, just sort of fix it, will you, as you go along?” “Yes, Jimmy.” “Could J have it in the morning- first thing?” “Yes. Drop by and pick it up.” He was as grateful as a puppy— the nice, not the Toby, kind of puppy. As she typed Jimmy Hoffbrower1S term paper, swiftly and accurately, making corrections of all sorts as she went along, her mind was busy with matters pertaining to herself. It never occurred to Zorie that she had a rather remarkable mind; that it might be considered something of a feat to correct and type flawlessly a sentence that had contained one misspelled word, two mistakes in punctuation and a grave error in reasoning while she was wondering what she would say to Mrs. Fol some tomorrow. Now and then through her mind like bright arrows went thoughts of the strange mysterious man to whom she had babbled in the rain, his magical appearance beside her, as if he were an ultra-modern Alad din, when she had rubbed—what? The telephone pole? And she again wondered why he had pulled her behind the pole when the green se dan had come along. Aimt Hannah, sighing with weari ness from the walk from her back yard garage to the living-room, came in at about ten-thirty, paused in the alcove doorway and said in differently, “Oh, so you’re working. Did you feed Toby?” “Yes, darling, some of that pink stuff he loves so,” Zorie answered, meanwhile catching that familiar of fender, “seperate,” as it went by, and wondering if the mysterious man in the rain was really a psychologist and, if so, or if not, if he had told Mrs. McGonigle, and if Mrs. McGonigle had already told Mrs. Folsome, and what Paul would say about it when he heard. Aunt Hannah, sighing, went up stairs and to bed. One detail of Zone’s problem was cleared up a few minutes later when the phone rang. Mrs. Folsome’s saccharine voice said, “I just called, dear, to make sure you’d delivered all the invitations.” Caught unprepared, Zorie’s agile young brain tried frantically to con coct a lie that would cover every thing. For one mad moment she was tempted to say, “Yes, dear Mrs. Folsome, they were all delivered to the trash basket on your comer.” She said feebly, “Yes, Mrs. Fol some.” That was all. Period. “That’s just splendid, dear! I hope you didn’t get your feet wet.” “Oh, no.” “That’s just splendid! Good night, dear!” “Good night,” Zorie said thickly. She hung up the receiver and fell back in the chair. She jumped up and began to walk up and down the crowded littie liv ing-room, trying to calm herself. She needed, for the state she was in, a word that would, combine hectic and frantic . . . Hantic? . . . No— frectic! She returned to her typing and made so many mistakes she had to recopy a page. At eleven-thirty, the doorbell rang again. She opened the door with none of her previous joyousness, with no laughter on her lips. Her hair was disarrayed, and her face was shiny with the oil of panic and honest effort. (TO BE CONTINUED) By VIRGINIA VALE B eIeased by W estern N ew spaper Union.

Time was when an actress would unhesitatingly have chosen the stage, but it was radio that won out this time. Incidentally, when another stage star appeared early for an Ellery Queen guest shot and demanded that the air show be put on at once, then left in a huff when it wasn’t, the producer frantically phoned around till he lo cated Miss Morgan at a friend’s home, and she rushed to the studio and filled the gap. Ruth Swanson, who was named “the prettiest dress extra in Holly wood” three years ago, recently was discharged as a pilot in the Ferry Command, following an auto acci dent. She’ll return to her old love, the movies, in order to play one more role, In Warner Bros. “Of Hu man Bondage.” Then she’ll go to a new love—a major in the air corps, and give up her screen career for marriage.

Criminals Given Choice Of No Salt or Hanging None of us can live without salt. Perspiration resulting in loss of salt from the human body makes men liable to muscular cramps. Several years ago a doctor and three medical students deliberate ly deprived themselves of all salt. Strange symptoms soon resulted. Appetite was lost, food seemed tasteless, cigarettes lost their fla vor, cramps in the muscles de veloped, and all suffered from ex cessive fatigue and a general sense of exhaustion. At one time one of the legal punishments in Holland was to de prive a man of his salt. It led to depression and illness. Con demned criminals in Sweden were once allowed, if they wished, to abstain from salt for a month in stead of mounting the scaffold. The result was practically a certain death.

SBm1 To the People of this Community There are m an; urgent reasons for buying War Bonds. First, the invasion needs money. Bonds pay for planes and guns and munitions _______________ with which tobeat the Axis. Our fighting m en must have fiie best possible equip ment and it is up to us to let our money provide this. A second reason is this: There is a shortage of goods now. Later on there will be plenty for civilian de sires. Money put into War Bonds now will be available then. Business opportunities will be open then, too, and the “nest egg” saved now may hatch out commercially then. Money put into War Bonds now will be deprived of its current potentiality as a part of the causes of inflation. You will be doing your part toward stabilizing the money situation by buying Bonds instead Cf dwindling stocks. That is a third reason. But the best reason from a selfish viewpoint is this: Sight now there is no better investment than War Bonds. There is no safer repository for your money. By buying Bonds you become a stockholder in the strongest “going” concern In the world today, the United States of America. THE EDITOR.

Tnuurr Btftrtmttt Why a Farmer Should Buy and Keep War Bonds by G. H. Aiill Head, Dept, of Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology Clemson College, S. C. P ARMERS in m y section of the L country do not need to be told why they should buy W ar Bonds. Many of them have sons or broth ers in one or the other branches of the service and they have a direct and personal interest in pro- . viding them with the supplies and m aterials of W ar. They know, also, that so long as they assum e this responsibility and use their own funds for this purpose it will not be necessary for Uncle Sam to create new and inflationary dollars in order to do the job. I think, too, that farm ers look upon their purchases of W ar Bonds as actually serving a threefold purpose, either one of which is suf ficient to justify w hatever tempo rary inconvenience this m ight ne cessitate. In the first place, by buying W ar Bonds farm ers m ake another direct and vital contribu tion to the winning of the w ar; secondly, they help keep prices within reasonable bounds; and finally, they build up a highly im portant reserve supply of funds which m ay be draw n upon after the w ar. This reserve m ay be applied to the purchase of needed item s of equipm ent and supply which either are not available now, or, if available, m ore ex pensive than norm ally would be the case. Meanwhile, of course, their investm ents in W ar Bonds will draw interest and if allowed to m ature will return four dollars for three. Most farm ers I know can teach the rest of us a great deal when it comes to reasons for buying W ar Bonds. They have been ac custom ed to sm all income in the past and have been quick to see that recent increases are due to large scale governm ent spending and, therefore, not likely to con tinue indefinitely. Since goods for civilian consumption are both scarce and expensive, and since further dem ands could serve only to push prices still higher, it has appeared both logical and patriotic for farm ers to use surplus funds to finance the purchase of essen tial m ilitary equipment. My im pression is that a great m any W ar Bond purchasers are not fully informed as to the ne cessity for keeping them until they m ature. (Reference of course, is prim arily to purchasers of “E ” bonds which return $100 for each $75 invested if held for ten years). However, I believe this is less true in the case of farm ers than of other groups. The reason is obvious: farm ers just naturally do not sell a hog until it has reached optim um weight. Even so, farm ers need to be rem inded that the waj m ust be fought and won with Bonds which they buy and keep, not which they buy and cash In. There are certain less obvious but equally valid reasons why farm ers should strive to keep the Bonds they buy until the date of their m aturity. F or example, there is the question of prices. Present indications are that prices will continue relatively high dur ing the early years of the post w ar period and m ay even in crease. A flood of post-war buy ing, especially if it is supported by individual sales of W ar Bonds, m ight generate a serious inflation ary movem ent which could easily absorb a large proportion of war tim e savings. In spite of all that can be done to prevent it, there will likely be a tendency in this direction. This is especially true since the availability of m any item s will be lim ited for at least a few years after the w ar. The probability is that those who keep their bonds will be' able to cash them in after prices have de clined rather than when they are at their peak. There is, of course, the possi bility that we shall experience a post-war depression instead of a post-war boom. In the one in stance farm ers would see prices of things they sell decline more rapidly than prices of things they buy; in the other, wages and non- agricultural prices would rise m ore rapidly than prices of farm products. In either case the re sult would be bad and I am cer tain that farm ers will wish to do everything in their power to prevent it. Aside from these more or less theoretical reasons why farm ers (as well as all others) should be exceedingly slow about cashing in their W ar Bonds, there is an other intensely practical reason. It m ight be stated in the negative: “Why shouldn’t farm ers keep their W ar Bonds?” Most of them have purchased Bonds out of surplus earnings resulting from w artim e governm ental expenditures. If his tory repeats itself these earnings will continue high for a few years after the w ar and ordinary farm needs presum ably m ay be financed from current operations. It is to be hoped at least that farm ers will not need to dispose of their accum ulated savings in order to m eet post w ar needs and—until W ar Bonds m ature—their interest yield will doubtless com pare fa vorably w ith that from any other investm ent. F arm ers, of course, should not neglect their resources nor perm it their operating effi ciency to decrease m erely for the sake of holding on to their Bonds. They should, however, be certain of a real need for the money be fore they cash them in prem aturely.

Are AU the ChUdren In? Rev. Walter E. lsenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. I think oftimes as the night draws nigh Of an old house on the hill; Of a yard all wide and blossomed- starred, Where the children played at will And when the night, at last came down. Hushing the merry din, Mother would look around and ask "A re all the children In?” 'Tis many and many a year since then, And the old house on the hill No longer echoes to childish meet. And the yard is still—so still. But I see it all, as the shadows creep; And though many the years have, been Since then, I can hear my mother ask, "A re all the children in?’’ I wonder, if when the shadows fall On the last short earthly day; When we say goodbye to the world outside, AU tired with our worldly play; W han we step out into that other land Where mother so long has been, Will we hear her ask just as of old, "A re all the children in?” —Author Unknown. In typing this poem for the pa pers I had to stop and weep. To me it is one of the sweetest, tend, erest poems ever written. I do not know who the author is, but when I get to heaven I hope to meet him there, take him by the hand and congratulate him on this wonder ful poem and ask, “Are all the children in?" Iwanttomeet his dear mother and find out if the en tire family made a safe arrival to the glory world. Surely she was a wonderful mother on earth, inter ested in her precious children, not only temporarily but spiritually. No doubt she prayed many a sin- cere prayer that all her children might reach heaven. Oh, that we had sainted mothers in every home of the nation! Mul. titndes of dear children wonldn’t be turned out into the cold, sinful world as they are without knowing a mother's sweet love and having her blessed prayers. They wouldn’t be running to and fro with bad company, visiting the theatres, for ming bad habits, learning vice and wickedness which will ruin them body and soul. They wouldn’t commit crime as they do in early life, be arraigned before our courts, tried and sentenced It is enough to make the mothers of America weep and prav as they never have before. I fear that the carelessness and indifference of multitudes of mothers is the reason that tens of thousands of precious boys and girls are lost in sin. wasting their lives and precious opportunities, and fast traveling to wreck, ruin and hell. Mothers, wake up! Go to praying for your children. Set the right examples before them. Advise them against all sin and wickedness and show them the beauty of living for God This is life's better way. Dewey May Use Train And Plane New York—Herbert Brownell, Jr., chairman of the Republican National Committee, said that Gov Thomas E Dewey probably would use both railroad trains and air. planes in bis presidential campaign and added: "But I doubt that he will use battleships, destroyers or cruisers which already have been used for campaign purposes." He did not enlarge on the state, ment. The Record only $1.00. Democrats Form New Party Jacksonville, Fla. -Organization of an independent Florida party "composed of real Democrats pledged to save their country and party from a fourth term and the new dealers,” was announced here last night following an all-day ses sion of a Statewide delegation. A formal statement issued at the end end of the meeting, presided over by I. Beverly Nalle, Jackson, ville real estate man, said the group had chasen a full slate for the pre sidential electors for the general election next November 7 and that they would be filed with the Se cretary of state to be placed on the ballot along with the regular De mocratic and Republican electors. A resolution adopted at the meet ing said the electors were pledged to "vote for a good Democrat for President of the United States who stands for the principles of this party.” Have Nine Lives Cats have nine lives—but so do New Deal bureaus In 1941 the Office of Civilian De fense under Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt set up a physical fitness division, wbLh was supposad to remold America’s muscles This was part of the same agency in whioh Mavris Chaney was employ ed to teach us all bow to dance. Well, when Congress and the people thought this had gone far enough, the OCD was ordered to get rid of the boondoggling physi cal fitness division. Everybody fig ured the Army and Navy would do enough physical 'fitness to please even the most rabid New Dealer. But, Io and behold, just the other day the physical fitness division- under the same director, John B. Kelly, was discovered—still in Washington and still doing busi ness, although somewhat on the quiet side. The division, investi gation showed, had been transferr ed quietly over to Paul McNutt’s Federal Security Agency. Same crowd. Same waste of money. Same foolish aims. Same New Deal tricks. Pre-Pearl Harbor Neg lect LongBeachl C alit: Inbisnomi- nation acceptance speech M r . Roosevelt said that Oklahoma and California today are being defeated in Normady and Saipan I wonder why the Commander in-Cfaeif didn’t have the foresight to protect us Californians and Oklahomans from at least the Japanese part of this war. This could have been done if our Asiatic fleet had heen used used in November and December, 1941, to check up on J ap fleet movements. President Coolidge in 1927 enlarged the Asiatic fleet by sending it some cruisers from the Atlantic to keep an eye on the Japs. That Is why we had no Pearl Harbor sometime between 1923 and 1933. G.

For time like these and in a stream like this, trans portation by horse is not good e- nough. The American people have common ser <j. They have been a- round.

Facilities for such a gather ing are ample at Winston-Salem and some of the Grange sessions will be held in the beautiful Reynolds Memo rial Auditorium, where similar ses sions were held in 1932 when the National Grange met here. From this group of five states— North Carolina, South Carolina. Vir ginia, West Virginia and Tennesse— principal attendance at the conven tion will be drawn, as well as the greater number of candidates for the Seventh Degree of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry, which is con ferred only once a year and is a most inspiring ritualistic presentation. A goal of 2,500 candidates for the de gree has been set and delegation will come from many points in the five states named. The degree event oc curs on the afternoon and evening of Friday. November 17. Many prominent national leaders from Washington. D. C., will be in attendance a t the Winston Salem session, including without doubt Senator Harrv F. Bryrd, who is an active Grange member and very en thusiastic over the work of this farm group. Gov. J. M. Broughton of North Carolina, who is likewise a Grange member and who went to the Grand Rapids convention last year to personally convey the invita tion to hold the 1944 session in his state, will heartiy welcome the Grange visitors and is an energetic booster for the coming convention. Prominent also in the arrange ments for the Winston-Salem con vention will be the North Carolina State Commissioner of Agriculture W. Kerr Scott, who was for several years Moster of the North Carolina State Grange and one of the most active figures at several conventions. No effort will be made this year to boost attendance will be made upon the Grange m the five states mentioned which are within reason able traveling distance of Winston- Salem, Consistency, Thou Art A Jewel While the Office of Defense Trans portation is still urging everyone who does not have to travel, to stay home and is even threatening to make the average man sign a .card that every trip he takes is necessary.

Just Another Broken Promise "In and out ot Congress we have heard orators and commentators and others beating their breasts and proclaiming against sending the bovs of American mothers to fight on the battlefields In Europe. That, I do not hesitate to label as one of the worst fakes in current history. It is a deliberate setting np of an imaginary bogeyman. The simple truth is that no person in any re sponsible place in the national ad ministration in Washington, or in any State government, or in any city government, or any connty government, has ever suggested in any shape, manner or torm the re motest possibility of sending the bovs of Amercan mothers to fight on the battlefields of Europe. That is why I label that argument a shameless and dishonest fake." They were the words of Frank lin Delano Roosevelt made in an address befo e the New York Her- ald-Trlbune Forum on October 26, 1939, about two months after the outbreak oi the Euronean war. Twentv-six million voters be lieved that statement in the 1940 election; twenty two million did not believe it. Now in this good year 1944 we are supposed to forget all about politics, forget the two-hundren billion dollars war debt and every thing that has gone before, and think of nothing except winning the war and getting these mothers’ sons out of it as soon as possible and vote for the man wbo dismissed angrily the war argument in 1940 as a “shameless a n d dishonest fake” Who are those "Shameless and Dishonest Fakers” turning out to he in 1944?—Union Republican. O’Daniel Blasts Demo crats Birmingham, AIa., — Recalling that Texas once went Republican, Senator W. Lee O’Daniel (D-Tex) asserted be did not know how his State would vote this year “be cause we’re between the devil and deep blue sea ” ‘‘We have completely lost our Democratic party, and you all know our inherent shyness when it comes to the Republican party," O’Daniel said in an address pre pared for delivery at a meeting of the Amercan National Democratic Party of Alabama. Sidney Hillman and bis gang of labor leader racketeers and fellow- traveling new dealers have bought out the Democratic party of our fathers, lock, stock and barrel. "You people may do as you think best, but as far as I am concerned, I do not propose to allow the New Deal smear brigade to intimidate me and force me to support legislation dealing entirely with our domestic affairs and thereby aid them to use the war effort asacamflage to cover np their real design to change the form of the American Government and convert it ioto a socialized dic tatorship.” The town of Mocksville was hon ored Thursday with the presence of two of tha country’s greatest men—Thomas A.

This July 25.1944 U C. BROCK, Commissioner. THE DAVIE RECORD. MOCKSVILLE, N. C. I Shaves and Shines Given to Invasion Yanks Washington, D. C- PRESIDENT AND WILLKIE Only insiders know it, but after the President held his press confer ence denying he had sent a letter .to Wendell Willkie, Judge Sam Rosenman and Steve Early rushed up to his desk and remonstrated that he had made a bad mistake. ,They were afraid FDR had re buffed the man who had gone down the line for him 100 per cent on taxes, foreign policy and the war. “They caught me a little unpre pared on that one,” the President admitted ruefully. “However, I tried to tell them it was a personal question. I didn’t want to embar rass Willkie by letting people think he and I had a political deal.” Later, the President repeated to some of his cabinet that he hadn’t expected the question at his news conference. Explaining that he wanted to talk to Willkie about post war peace plans and foreign policy, not politics, he indicated that he would go ahead with his plans for the talk regardless of what had hap pened. The President was quite irked that news about his letter to the former Presidential candidate had leaked out. Only a few people knew the letter existed. The carbon copy was not filed with his regular cor respondence, and the first draft of the letter had been written in his own handwriting for Grace Tully, his secretary, to copy. Despite this, Willkie began to get queries about the letter two weeks after he received it. The news men making the inquiries cited White House sources, said they had the tip from Presidential secretaries. Willkie made no comment, never admitted receiving the letter, but he | got the impression that the White House wanted the story out. Therefore, you could have knocked him over with a feather when the President replied to news men last week that he didn’t know anything about writing Willkie a let ter. Immediately after the White House denial appeared in the press, Willkie’s phone began buzzing with Republican friends warning him that Roosevelt would always kick him in the teeth. They urged him to come out for Dewey. A R M S D EM O BILIZATION PLA N Here is the inside story on White House-war department plans for de mobilizing part of the army after the defeat of Germany. The war de partment is planning to release about 2,000,000 men immediately after a German armistice. Under this plan, the army will set up a point system for every man in the service, and men with suffi cient points will be retired. Here is how the points will be calculated: 1. For each month in the serv ice, every man will receive one point. 2. Each month overseas will connt an additional point. t. For each battle honor, a aian will receive four points. 4. The congressional medal of honor or legion of merit will connt four additional points. 5. Each bronze star denoting service in battle will count four additional points. 6. For every child, a soldier will receive eight points. 7. Married men without chil dren will also receive eight extra points. There are still several important gaps in this program which the army and the White HouSe have not yet filled in. Ther,e still is no special credit for age. However, it is al ready decided that, because the army will have a greater need for air men in the Pacific, a separate system will be set up for discharg ing air corps veterans. Of course, the basic point which everybody wants to know is: "How many points will a man need to get out?” That has not yet been determined. It has been determined, however, that at the end of the Atlantic war, the navy does not plan to release any of its men. It can also be revealed that President Roosevelt is anxious to discharge hardship cases first. When the President discussed this plan recently with several senators, they asked him how he planned to handle the problem of policing Germany and other occupied enemy territory after the armistice. He replied that he hoped to do so by using men who have learned to like the army, plus professional sol diers who were in the army be fore the selective service pro gram got under way. He also plans to use men who have had no overseas experience and want to volunteer for it now.... CAPITAL CHAFF C.

American Troops Continue Advances Into France 'lL'# This railroad bridge, east of Toulon, was demolished by the retreating Huns as Allied forces continued to push steadily inland on the southern coast of France. The Nazis left little in the way of railroad tracks or bridges or highway for the advancing Allied armies. Engineer units were soon able, however, to repair or rebuild bridges and roads so that operations were not materially slowed down. The Tanks march past an eight-foot steel and concrete wall that runs the length of a beach in southern France. All They’re Fit for Is Hanging j & l American soldiers examine pictures of high ranking Nazis discovered in a French hotel, formerly occupied by German officers. In nearly all former German officers’ quarters captured by the Allies, large collec tions of photographs were found. In removing their personal effects they made no attempt to save photographs of Nazi leaders. Japanese Prisoners of Chinese The picture of defeat, these Japanese soldiers who surrendered to the Chinese rather than be killed, are being led down to the Salween river, southwest China, to be ferried back to headquarters for questioning. They are only a small part of the prisoners who have been taken during the present Burma road campaign, which attests to its success. Hero of Children French youngsters throng about Lieut. Gen.

We moved into that position recently when we attempted to name an all- time National league outfield. In the wake of this nomination we “heard the shots fired around the world,” includ ing the South Pa cific and the Euro pean front. Our nominations were Fred Clarke of the Pirates, Terry Moore of the Cardi nals, Mel Ott of the Giants and Jimmy Sheckard of the Dodgers and the Cubs.Then the fusillade opened — “What about Zach Wheat of the Dodgers?” “What about Ross Xoung of the U!- ants?” “What about Stan Musial of the Cardinals?” There were others— George Bums of the Giants, Mike DonIin of the Giants, Wildfire Schulte of the Cubs, Circus Solly Hofman of the same team, Roush of Cincin nati, Klein of Philadelphia, not for getting Paul Waner of Pittsburgh and Brooklyn, Medwick of the Car dinals, Dodgers and Giants. These were among the leading counter-attacks thrown at our top selections, covering only the last 40 years. That’s as far back as we feel like walking, or looking. In spite of the heavy barrage thrown in our direction, we still stick with our original pick, admitting that Mike Donlin, Zach Wheat, Paul Wa- ner and Pep Young would be serious challengers. Here is our testimony: Fred Clarke and Jimmy Sheckard, old- timers, are better than the modem crowd knows. Far better. Terry Moore is the best defensive outfield er the National league ever looked at, a ball player with a fiery spirit who was also a strong man on the offensive side, a normal .300 hitter. I don’t have to tell you any more about Mel Ott, the lone National leaguer who could match the best of the A. L. in power. Leave off Mel Ott and you slip in a machine gun for a howitzer or a navy 16-incher. American League Better I can name you two sets of Ameri can league outfielders who for total value outclass the pick of the Na tional. Here they are: No. I—Cobb, Ruth, Speaker. No. 2—Joe Jackson, Di- Maggio, Ted Williams. This second American league out field is much better than any top outfield we can pick from the Na tional. There can’t be any argument over Cobb, Speaker and Ruth, or Ruth, Cobb and Speaker. And they have only a brief nod over Jackson, DiMaggio and Williams, especially on the run-making side. I don’t believe my fervid assault ers can pick a National league out field as good as the second Ameri can league trio I have named. Those who think they can would make poor scouts. Bill Dickey will tell you that Ted Williams was the greatest hitter he ever saw and Bill played with Ruth, Gehrig and DiMaggio. DiMaggio was something more than a great hitter. Joe was a great ball player, about 50-50 with Tris Speaker on de fense. Into Deeper Trouble Here is a race where we ran a poor last. A marine sergeant sent us this problem from somewhere in the Pa cific, a problem starting an uproar with several hundred dollars bet: It seems that with two out the next man up took a swing at the third strike. He missed the strike but the ball struck his shoulder, bounded away, and he ran to first. The marine sergeant claimed he was out. The infantry didn’t think so. I agreed with the infantry. Trust ing foolishly to memory and intui tion I figured he most be safe. I wrote the sergeant to this effect. Now, Ford Frick, president of the National league, writes me that I was wrong. “The batter was out,” he says. “If on a third strike the ball touches any part of the batter, he is out automatically.” I still can’t understand why, as on a third strike the batter can run on a ball thrown into the dirt or on a wild pitch. I only hope the marine sergeant doesn’t sue me and I can only prom ise that on the next matter of rules I will consult Ford Frick before at tempting to make any decision.• • • Golf for Cripples The most remarkable golfer I re call was one who had both arms cut off just at the two shoulders. He swung the club head with the shaft of his club held between the chin and neck. I’ve forgotten his name but he used to play around 100. There have also been cases of men totally blind playing at least fairly well with caddies to show them the right line and estimate the distance for the next shot. One blind Canadi an soldier broke a hundred.

Folsom e phones and asks if the invitations are delivered. C H A P T E R III But !Paul's face was shiny, too, and his eyes were angry and ob livious. She backed into the room as he entered, hoping he would take her in his arms and make love to her a little. But Paul was too pre occupied. There was a sheaf of yel low paper rolled up in his hand. "I can only stop a moment,” he said vigorously. “What a night! I’ve spent my ’ time' trying to wheedle that old pest into taking a plane west. But he's got another of his obsessions. He’s on his way back to the Islands, and some publisher whose motives or mental processes are certainly worth looking into has sold him on the idea that his life would make a wonderful book! Paul’s expression was so dour that Zorie laughed. “Wouldn’t it?” she asked. “From what you’ve told me about it, his life has been awfully colorful.” “You don’t understand,” Paul said, ‘‘He’s picked on me to help him write it!” “You!” Zorie gasped. She had worked on enough of Paul’s compo sitions to know his literary short comings. “Yes!” said Paul savagely. “Me! I loathe the’story of his life! I was weaned on it! I cut my teeth on it! I grew up on it! I’m a problem child because of it.” Paul was pacing up and down the small room, weaving his way adroit ly among tables and chairs and brandishing the yellow scroll as if it were a sword. He whirled on her. “Did I ever tell you the story of how he helped George Dewey win the Battle of Ma nila Bay—how he ran in under the very guns of Cavite and let the tor pedoes go?”“You never mentioned that,” Zorie murmured. Paul stopped again, facing her, with his mouth twisted into a wry grimace, his hands, spread-fingered, shrugged up in a gesture of comi cal hopelessness. “I tell you, darling, I’m a des perate man.” Zorie’s smile was made up largely of eompassion. “Do you want me to take him off your hands while you work on your dissertation? He can sit here and play with Toby while I copy a term paper.” “Np, Zorie. There’s something else. He has another brain wave on. He thinks I’m wasting my life. He calls what Tm doing childish nonsense. He wants me to give it up, go back to the Islands with him, and go to work as a cut-cane Iuna on the old plantation and work up.” “Seriously?” Zorie asked. “I’ll say seriously! And I have to be awfully careful with him. He’s been dropping vague references all evening to drawing a new will when he hits Honolulu. If I don't watch my step, he might even cut me off. Do you see now why I’m des perate?”“I see,” Zorie murmured. She wanted to say that, in her humble opinion, his taking a job and work ing up on a sugar plantation in Ha waii sounded infinitely more attrac tive to her than his going on and becoming a professor of psychology, but she wisely refrained. “Where is he now?” “At McGonigle’s. He has a way,” Paul went on, “of bullying and cajol ing you into doing what he wants, and he uses some kind of mesmer ism, too. It almost always works, but when it doesn’t, he’s furious. It isn’t working on me tonight and he’s fit to ts tied. “The dissertation is finished—or as finished as it can be with all this in the air. Will you copy it tonight, darling, and will you take special pains with it—spelling and grammar and reasoning and what not—and catch anything I’ve gone wrong on? You know how my mind works bet ter than I do.” He held out the scroll to her, and she automatically took it. “It’s in your hands now, Zorie,” he said. “But, Paul,” she protested, “I’ve already promised to copy a term paper tonight." The glow went out of Paul’s eyes and the drama out of his posture. “Whose is it?” “Jimmy Hoffbrower’s.” “But Hoffbrower’s going to fiunkl It’s M the bag!” “I want to help him all I can,” Zorie said gently. “But you can’t put that tripe of bis ahead of mine!” Paul cried an grily. “For heaven’s sake, Zorie, McGonigle’s promised to read it as soon as you can get it done. To night! That’s how important it is to usl He’ll be up all night reading term papers.‘It may be the—the fork In the road I You've get to do it right away, Zorie!” “Very well,” Zorie said submis sively. It meant she would have to stay up most of the night, to copy both papers. He must know it meant that, because he must know she would not let Jimmy Hoffbrower down. I Paul kissed her quickly and mean- inglessly on the mouth, and opened the door. “You’re certainly a peach, darling,” he said with the effusive ness of a man who has got his way and is happy because you have come to heel. With his head turned, he was look ing at her whimsically. “You know, Zorie, you’d be the ideal person for that job.” “What job?” ........... “Working with the admiral on his memoirs.” “I?” she wailed. “Don’t be silly.” “Don’t be so modest, darling. You virtually ghosted Ferguson’s book on econ for .him, and-) the amount of original stuff you write into these papers you copy often saves them.” Paul was grinning at her. “Sure, you would!” he teased her. “He’d storm up and down, dictating that garbage to you and you’d just sit there in your sweet, meek way, and “You don’t understand,” Pan] said. “He picked on me to help him write it.” take it down in shorthand, then work it up glibly into chapters. It would be right down your street, Zorie!” "It’s a one-way street,” Zorie an swered, “and I’m walking the oth er way, thank you.” She finished copying Jimmy's term paper a little before two- thirty. She made herself a pot of coffee, took it into the alcove with a cup and saucer and sugar and glanced through Paul’s dissertation. It was entitled, “Differences in Intellectual Functioning among Nor mal, Paretic, and Schizophrenic Adults.” She asked herself: “Is this nearly so important as raising this sugar that I’m putting into my cof fee?” It certainly wasn’t to her. Starting in on the old family planta tion as a cut-cane luna—whatever a cut-cane Iuna was and did—sound ed much more exciting and worth while bothering your head over than intellectual differences between nor- nal, paretic and schizophrenic adults. At a .little before four, the door bell rang again. It startled her, even though she was occasionally called to the telephone or to the door by a student or an instructor at some such scandalous hour to have something copied. A pang shot through the small of her back as she got up from the typewriter. She was so tired she staggered. Her hands felt numb, her legs ached, and her neck was stiff. The bell rang in long, urgent peals. She opened the door. A thin, tall old man with a furrowed red-face, china-blue eyes, and curly snow- white hair stood on the doormat still jabbing with his stick at the door button. He wore no hat. He had an air of eagerness and im patience, and his untrimmed white brows, which grew up into peaks on his forehead, gave him a whimsi cally ferocious appearance. His eyes were mischievous and his jaw was large and prominent, and this, as any student of human nature knows, is a dangerous combination. Even before he spoke, Zorie knew that her untimely caller was Paul’s crafty, willful, meddlesome grand father. “You’re Zorie Corey—hm?" he said. “The girl who is so clever at doing manuscripts that the entire faculty leans on her—hm?” It was, she would learn, a con firmed old habit — that hm?—ac quired from years of dealing with Hawaiian, Japanese, Portuguese, Filipino and other plantation labor ers who might not understand the simplest order. “You savvy—hm?” “I’m Zorie Corey,” Zorie said in a meek voice. He quickly looked her over. He was really a very distinguished look ing old man, so tall and erect, with his striking white hair. “I am Admiral Duncan,” he in troduced himself. “My grandson Paul has been telling me about you. I know it’s very late, but this is a very urgent matter. May I step in for just a moment—hm?” “Of course,” Zorie said helplessly. He looked quickly about the room, unerringly selected the most com fortable chair and seated himself, with his stick across his knees. “Paul says you’re the cleverest girl he has ever known; that you’ve worked on books of all sorts with professors, that you’ve a wonderful talent for literary collaboration, and that you’re just the girl to work with me on my autobiography—hm?” Zorie’s mouth was dry. “But I . . .” she began. “Don’t be modest, my dear,” he checked her. “Paul says you do the real finishing work.” “It will be a nice job, with easy hours,” Admiral Duncan was say ing, “and I’ll pay you whatever you think it’s worth. We won’t haggle over price—hm?” She realized that Paid had sold her down the river, to spare himself. “But, Admiral Duncan—” “A publisher is very much inter ested in the book,” he went on heed lessly. “He wants it as soon as I can get it done. I know we’ll get along beautifully, my dear. And there’s no time to waste. We’ll catch the “Samoa”—sailing tomor row . . . rather, this afternoon at five—and I’ve already wired for a stateroom for you . . . hm?” Zorie sat stiffly in her chair, with her eyes haggard and almost blind ed by exhaustion, her back aching, her brain spinning, while Admiral Duncan’s words beat against her like surf.“I think we can just make the plane comfortably—hm? ” He was going to the phone. He was talking into it. He was saying, “I want one more seat on Flight Seven to San Francisco—hm? This is Admiral Oliver Hazard Perry Duncan. Government business— hm? I demand priority. What's that? I see. Fine! Splendid! Excellent!” He dropped the receiver into the hook. He was rubbing his hands. “There’s plenty of space on that plane. It’s the milk plane. It stops everywhere and it isn’t a sleeper, but it gets us to San Francisco with an hour to spare. You won’t mind sitting up. We can discuss the book —hm?” She understood now why his twelve grandchildren were in such dread of him. Much as she wanted to get away from Elleryton, much as she would love to go to Hawaii, she did not want to go at the cost of having to work with this old tyrant on his memoirs. Zorie would never know how he accomplished it. But the next thing she knew, she was in her room packing and he was lounging in the doorway, wearing a whimsical, self- satisfied smile and telling her what interesting work it would be, and what a gallant girl she was for com ing to the aid of an old man with a great story to leave to posterity—a story of which the world might be robbed if it were npt put down on paper at once, my dear, because he was old—he was eighty-six—and he might not last much longer . . . hm? She wanted to laugh at that. With his energy, which was that of a steamroller on a downhill grade, he would doubtless celebrate his onv hundred and fiftieth birthday. She packed her two suitcases ane a small hand trunk. The doorbell rang. Over Admiral Duncan’s voice, she heard Paul’s. They went downstairs. Paul was standing in the open doorway with his feet planted apart. His eyes were dark with anger, and his mouth looked thin and hard. He was ob viously trying to control himself. He was white and he was trembling. He might have been posing for a statue to be entitled “The Avenger.” “So here you are!” he panted. “You pulled another fast one, didn’t you? What did you tell McGonigle?” Admiral Duncan managed to look annoyed and vague at the same time. “What are you talking, about?” he snapped. “What you said to McGonigle!” “When?” “Just before you sneaked over here!”“Oh, that," his grandfather said. “I asked him to excuse you so you could go to the Islands with me— hm?"“But you know examinations be gin in a few days!” Paul said hotly. “You know I have a'million things to do before the holidays!” It was pitiful, Zorie thought without a twinge of pity, to see him struggling. He was furious—and try ing so hard not to go too far. He wanted to say so much more, but he was as helpless as one of the white rats he used in his control experi ments. “Yes, I know,” the admiral said genially. “It’s all arranged—hm?” “I’ll go next term when school closes,” Paul said grimly. “No. I want you to go now." Paul had his hands in his coat pockets. Zorie knew that his fists were clenched. He was white with fury. —ip* (TO BE CONTINUED) Dose of Laughter Gives Stimulus and Relaxation If laughter could be ordered at the druggists, any doctor would prescribe many laughs every day. A dose of laughter is a combina tion of stimulus like that of vita min tablets plus the relaxation of bromides. Laughter is exercise for the diaphragm, which is neg lected in most exercises except deep breathing. If you could X-ray yourself when you laugh, you would see aston ishing results. Your diaphragm goes down, down, and your lungs expand. You are taking more oxy gen than usual and that oxygen passes into the blood exposed in your lungs. As you laugh, the rate of exposure to oxygen is doubled or trebled. A surge of power runs from head to toes.

Some of them are already predicting that PranKlin will be defeated when the ides of November roll around. It is only seven weeks until elec. tion dav, but everything is quiet on the old Yadkin. The boys its the forks of the big and little Yadkins arc keeping very quiet. The poll, tical pot hasn’t even started to situ mer much less to boil. As we remarked some time ago, every time the Democrats have been in control uf the Federal Govern, ment in the past half a century, we have had either a war or a panic. Just why this happens we can’t say, but we defy any man to dispute this fact. We don’t know Gregg Cherry very well, but if the Danbury Re porter. a Democratic newspaper, told the truth about him in a four- page special edition published last spring, we don’t see bow the good people of the state can afford to vote for him If the citizens of North Carolina want an honest, upright sobet man for their Governor they will make no mistake in voting f o r Hon. Frank C. Patton. Thousands of the best Democrats in North Caro lina are going to vote for this Burke county man in the November elec. tion. There is not a finer man in the old North State than Frank Patton. Some time ago we picked up a Democratic paper and glanced over the editorial page. A few days later we picked up another Demo cratic paper and took a look at the editorial page. We picked up a third Democratic paper the next day, and lo, and behold, all three Democratic papers carried the same editorials, word for word. Three editors with but a single thought, three hearts that beat as one. President Roosevelt in a political speech in October, 1940, just be fore he was elected for the third term, said; “I tell vou fathers and mothers of America again and a- gain that your sons will not be sent into foreign war.” Just how well Mr. Roosevelt kept his word, we leave it to the thousands of fathers and mothers in America to say. A glance through The Re- cord columns each week will con vince the tfiost skeptic that our boys are in foreign lands. A gentleman in Winston-Salem remarked a few days ago that Hon. B. C. Brock, ot Davie would be elected to Congress this fall over W. O. Burgic, the Democratic in cumbent. The gentleman remark, ed that Brock had been running for office for many years and had jj. c", wuhin fifty days'after the never been defeated. Reports from) first publication of thfs notice and Democratic counties are very en j answer or demur to the complaint couraging for onr townsman.

Land potters at this office.Clerk of Superior Court, Farm News of Interest Farmers of Davie County carried out approved soil-building practices encouraged under the conservation program of the Agricultural Ad- justment Agency on a large percent I of the coanty’s cropland during 1943,; according to a report received today bv N. R. Dyson, chairman of the county AAA committee. The report, forwarded to Mr. Dv- son by the State AAA office at Ra leigh, showed that percentage of the county’s cropland in the program in 1943 was 5 percent above that in 1942, but was 14.3 percent greater than the average during the four years. 1936-1939. A steady increase in the conserva tion practice carried out in this coun* ty under the AAA program shows that farmers realize the importance of preserving the productivity of their soil, Mr. Dyson said. ‘The new records for total agricultural production farmers of this Nation have established each year for the past seven years would not have been possible if our land hadn’t been in shape f r all-out production when we needed it most. When the war came, American farmers were ready for peak production, and results of past conservation measures can be seen in the greatlv increased per acre yields we have harvested in re cent years.” Biggest increase in conservation practice carried out in the county, Mr. Dyson said, is noted in the ap plication of fertilizer materials. As shown in the report, farmers of Davie County in 1943 applied 730$ tons of ground limestone, compared with 2187 tons in 1942, and an aver, age of 510 tons per year during the 1936-1939 period. Applications of phosphate, in terms of 16 percent material to bay and pastureland were listed as 91.2 tons in 1943, compared with 28 tons in 1942, and an average average of 8 8 tons per year during 1936-1939. Other practices carried out in the county during 1943. according to the report, include: 9080 acres seeded to green manure and cover crops, and 29.900 linear feet of terraces constructed. The following Si were distributed hv the AAA in Davie county in 1943; Rye Grass 4,000 pounds. Vetch 12.300 pounds, and Auatrain Winter Peas 22.400 pounds. “Some figurest in the report pro- bablv would have been higher ex cept for revisions of the conserva tion program to fit wartime needs, “Chairman Dyson said. “Since the war began, the AAA has emphasized those practices which would contri bute most to immediate increasss in production of urgently needed war crops. Also, practice payments are no longer made for practices which hava become ‘routine’. The present program, likewise, is aimed at im mediate increases in production of war crops It is now time to file applications for Dairy Feed Payments. Anyone who sells milk, butter, or cream is eligible to receive payment. Appli cations must be filed for July and August sales by October 31. 1944. The rate of payment for this period 65 cents per hundred pounds of milk and .06 cents per pound for butterfat. Orders for Vetch and Austrian Winter Peas keep rolling in, but we still have a fairly good supply. There are a lot of people in the county who are not going to earn as much pay* ment as they are entitled to. and they can take seed instead. It is shame for the county not to earn its maximum payment either in money J R i PFC kAY JOHNSON WALKER, son of Mr. and Mrs. E G Walker, of R 2, has qualified as Gunner, 2nd Class.

This is the 16th Davie Countv soldier killed in this World War Christmas Cards And Gifts The War and Navy Departments are exerting every effort that every soldier and sailor overseas may be pemitted to receive a Christmas package from home. It is most urgent that these gift parcels be selected and mailed as early as possible within thirty-day period from September 15 to October 15. in order that no lasc-minute backlog occur at any of the several ports of embarkation. We owe it to our armed forces overseas to shopearlv. wrap securely, mail early and, above all, address legibly and completely these holiday gifts which mean so much to fight ing men’s morale.

And, like 45,000 other men and women of the Southern Railway System, he is m ighty busy these days. Busy . . . because the Southern is carrying the greatest transportation load in all its history.

B ut not too busy to smile, to be courteous and considerate. In fact, in a recent survey of public opinion in Southern Railway territory, 98 percent of the peo ple interviewed said th at our employees habitually “make an effort to please.” This is a reflection of the very heart and soul of this railroad.

The doctors were quick to state that un less people refrain from visiting back and forth into other countries where polio has been prevalent, that all has been done for Davie County might be quickly undone. It was. therefore, urged by tbe Board tbat parents refrain from taking children on visits outside of the county. It is just as bad, members of the Board pointed out. for people from other counties to come to Cavie County on visits The Board was appreciative on the fine spirit of cooperation shown by the people ot the county during the emergenoy, and desires to commend officially all of those who have so willingly cooperated to keep down tbe spread of tbe dread disease.

Pickles, chutneys,.. catsups, con serves and relishes add Ihat bit of something special to the meal. They’re easy to. put up because the sugar, spices and vinegar in thejn act as preservatives.

Follow every direction, every measurement, and do every step carefully.'Cucumber pickles may be made' either, by a longer short process, but the longer'process yields a better pickle. 3. When slicing several kinds of fruit or vegetable for pickling, have all of them about the "same thickness. 4. Too much spice destroys both flavor and color.

Lesson for September 17 Lcisort subjects aAd’ Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. 1 THE KINGDOM STRONGLX ‘ ESTABLISHED LESSON - TEXT—□ Samuel 2:4-7; 8:1-10.• GOLDEN TEXT—They that trust In the Lord'Shall be as mount Zion,’which cannot .be motyed, but.abideth forever.—Psalm 125:1. Position and power are important to a king, but of even greater im portance -is the winning of the hearts of his people. Only as he has them with him can he build a great nation. David was the Lord’s anointed. The kingdom was his. But God ex pected him to make the necessary effort and use his own abilities to bring it into a place of honor arid usefulness. God gives us all we have, but He does not shower it down on us; we must go out and possess it. . Note in the three verses that pre cede our lesson (w . 1-3) that David moved forward only after prayer and divine guidance. Little wonder that he succeeded. I. The Southern Tribes Declare Their Loyalty (2:4). The nation was divided into two parts, Judali in the south and Israel in the north. To bring them together again called for consummate skill. Detvid had it. ^When Saul had died, David showed his respect and genuine loyalty to the king by his actions and by his song of lament which we find in II Samuel. I. -Then by the Lord’s leading he went to Hebron, the .,national capital of Judah, and there awaited the will of the people. Their declaration for David was not long in coming. They knew and respected, him. He had shown him self to be their friend (I Sam. 30:26) and now they made him king. It was the first step and a long one In the right direction. . Tl; The' King Makes Friends by Being Friendly (2:5-7). - The men of Jabesh-gilead, hear ing that the Philistines had killed Saul, went for his body and gave it suitable burial. This gave David occasion to show his fine spirit of appreciation, which naturally warmed the hearts of all those who had loved and followed Saul. It was excellent strategy, but at the same time it was the natural expression of a kind heart. He that would have friends must show himself friendly (Prov. 18:24). And why not? The friendly and open-hearted kindness_ of some Christians does more to win others to Christ than the brilliant dis courses of some cold, exclusive Christian worker. Most of the Lord’s work is done by ordinary people with warm hearts. Is there any reason why we 'cannot all be win some and attractive in Christ? In. The Northern Tdbes Recog nize Their .King, (5:1-5). A period of seven years elapsed before this .took place. The house of Saul was not willing to yield its supposed rights to the throne, and there was fighting and struggle. In it all Dayid showed himself to be upright and considerate. . There is value in gradual develop ment and in the struggle for the right. Had David found immediate suceefcs t>ng> wonders whether he would have gained the strength he needed, for-.the. future. Then came the; day , when Israel, the tribes of'the iHortff rcSuiitry, of their own accord chose to put them selves under David. Nqte that it was-because of, their regard for. him (w . I, 2) that' ttflfr Crame-1 to h}r« (v. 3). That was great gain. A united people! How important that is in the affairs of the nations.' Nothing is more disturbing or a greater hindrance than internal fric tion. We ought to deal quickly and decisively with any group or force in the life of our nation which is clearly divisive or disloyal. Think, then, how important it is that God’s people in the Christian Church stand together in undivided loyalty to Christ, our King, and in loving devotion to one another. IV. The King Established a Na tional Capital (5:6-10). Jerusalem, which was to be the “city of David,” and which figures so prominently not only in history but in prophecy, had. to be wrested from the hands of the heathen Jebusites, and be established as the sacred city and the capital of the Jewish nation. Note that the kind arid considerate king was not a weakling. He knew how to fight and to win. Verse 8 is difficult to interpret, Iiut evidently does not mean that David was cruel. The Jebusites taunted him by saying that their blind and cripples could hold the wall against David’s men. Then they doubtless put their best soldiers on the wall, and David said to his men, “Let us take these cripples.” We see in verses 9 and 10 that David was not only a fighter, but also a builder. He began then the development of Jerusalem, the great city of which we are yet to hear wondrous things. ------ SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS C a m p u s F r o c k o r ‘D a te ’ D r e s s A ll t h e G ir ls W e a r P in a f o r e s 1992 4-io yw.. 1954 10-20 For Fall Wardrobe /""\F COURSE it’s just as nice off ^ the Campus as it is on—but it’s the sort of frock high school and college girls want in their fall wardrobes!

VsIITH A ' ,jm z z Z Z SURE-FIRE: IW & W . IN V E S T M E N T ? Te the People of this Community There are many urgent reasons for buying War Bonds. First, the invasion needs money. Bonds pay for planes and guns and munitions with which to beat the Axis. Our fighting m en must have the best possible equipment and it is up to us to let our money provide this. A second reason is this: There is a shortage of goods now. Later on there will be plenty for civilian desires. Money put into War Bonds now will be available then. Busi ness opportunities will be open then, too, and the “nest egg” saved now may hatch out commercially then. Money put into War Bonds now will be deprived of its current potentiality as a part of the causes of inflation. You will be doing your part toward stabilizing the money situation by buying Bonds instead ot dwindling stocks. Tbat Is a third reason. But the best reason from a selfish viewpoint is this: Right now there is no better investment than War Bonds. There is no safer repository for your money. By buying Bonds you become a stockholder in the strongest "going” concern in the world today, the Pnited States of America. t h e EDITOR.

H o w t h e F a r m e r M a y S t r e t c h H i s W a r t i m e D o l l a r ! Ly Ben F. Alvord H ead, D ept, o f A gricultural Economic* A labam a Polytechnic Institute P ARMERS as a group are fre- * quently assumed to be able to make each dollar go farthest and buy most. This reputation may perhaps not be deserved. They have had of necessity, however, much practice in stretching dol lars. Their families are larger and their cash incomes invariably average smaller than those of the average family of the United States. Now is the time for all farmers who really want to con tinue to be good dollar stretchers to give careful thought to how they handle their affairs. The farmer must get his dollar before he stretches it. It takes long, hard hours of work on the part of the farmer and his family to produce crops now for hired labor is scarce and often impossi ble to get. However, prices of products farmers sell in this country are about twice as high as they were in 1940 and prices farm ers pay for fertilizer, machinery, and other production factors aver age only about fifty per cent higher than in that year. Thus, farmers tend to have a greater margin over production costs than usual and on the aver age should have more dollars to stretch. Some factors in the present situation hinder dollars stretching and some help. Living costs, even for the most necessary arti cles and services, have mounted and taxes have climbed sharply. On the other hand, the farmer is forced to spend less for automobile driving and other travel; he is forced to produce and store certain foods that he customarily buys; and he is duty bound to economize in other ways for the war effort. This situation means he has some dollars at least to stretch. Stretching requires that he pay some attention to the value of the dollar. He can stretch his dollar by paying debts. His dollar purchases less of many things now than in 1940, hut it purchases just as much release from debt as ever. Thus, it is a good time to pay off debts—especially the long time debts. That is one place where he can make his dollar valuable. A second place where his dollar is as valuable as ever is in the purchase of United States Bonds. A cheap dollar, such as we have now, buys just as many United States Bonds as it did in 1940 when a dollar was worth about one-third more than at present. Thus, buying a Bond stretches the dollar! If the Bond is kept un til it matures, he has at least one extra dollar for every three that he spent for B Bonds. He has also the chance of getting an extra margin in case prices drop to the 1940 level when his Bond matures. This latter margin is not a certainty, but such a price change could come. It did come after the previous war. If we assume that our progress in World War II is at about the same point as our progress in 1918 was in World War I, it is interesting to note that the all commodities wholesale price index dropped a net amount of about 27 per cent in the 10 years following 1918 and a further 23 per cent in the following 5 years. That is, $75 invested in bonds, such as our present E Bonds, in 1918 would have amounted to $100 in 1928 and if then cashed, would have purchased at wholesale in that year as much goods as $135 would have bought in 1918. The increase in dollar value of the Bond plus the increase in purchasing power of each dollar would have increased the purchasing power of the investment over the 10-year period by about 80 per cent. The farmer has this extra chance to stretch his dollar. Such dollars would have had an extra stretch sometime after the Civil War, sometime after the Spanish American War and again some time after World War No. I. The chance stretch might not come after World War No. II, but the Bond investment is a good “buy” anyway since 3 dollars invested still means 4 dollars return for all Bonds kept to maturity.V. S.

T housands of people w ho belong to the churches of ou r nation and claim to be C hristians are rook playeis. Personally speaking, I have never played a gam e In my life, for w hich I am very thankful unto God. W e never, never re gret living right, abstaining from all evil and its appearance, and spending our tim e in a w ay that Is profitable and w ell-pleasing unto God. Praise H is nam e. W ould Jesus play rook if H e were on earth In bodily form as H e once w as? Can you im agine H im sitting around a table of cards w asting H is precious tim e, while m illions and m illions of people are perishing for th e Gospel? No, a thousand tim es no. A nd to be a C hristian m eans th at we follow in H is steps. H ow ever, it is one thing to profesr to be H is follow er, and quite another thing to actually do H is blessed will, and follow H im faitdfully. T he rook playing church m em ber certainly is not a soul-w inner. H is influence doint to Calvary and to C hrist. W ho would go for a rook player to pray for him if he were under deep conviction of sin, o r w ere on his dying bed? N o one. T he preacher w ho plays rook w ith his congregation, or w ith individ ual m em bers of his church, wields poor influence over them . T hey know he is absolutely out of his place Rook belongs to the world and not to th e church. I t is for sinners and not for C hristians. T he church is to come out from the evil world and be separate. E very preacher of the Gospel, and every professed C hristian, should so live th at he m ay win th e confidence of those who know him , and w ith w hom he m ixes and m ingles, until they will “ take know ledge of him th a t be has been w ith Jesus.” A ccording to W ebster’s diction ary, one m eaning ot rook is "to cheat, to defraud.” In m y opinion this Is the correct definition of the ungodly card gam e called took to day. People m eet at the rook ta ble, play, cheat, defraud, often tim es get m ad, and deep down in their hearts realize they are in the service of the devil. No doubt m any a w retched gam bler has star ted on his m iserable and wild ca reer around the rook table. H e learned the secret there of cheat ing and defrauding In the game, and th e lure of dishonesty in m on ey-m aking through gam bling H e w asted his precious tim e, took m on ey dishonestly, and had m oney ta ken from him dishonestly, wrecked his life and lost his precious soul. N o wonder the chinch of today is so powerless when m ultitudes of her m em bers are rook players and gam blers, theatre-goers, gadabouts, seeking worldly pleasures and a- m usem ents, and going along the broad road to hell w ith the sinners who profess nothing but to be ser vants of the devil. N o professed C hristian, no church m em ber, nor preacher, has any bus- iness partaking of the questionable things of the world. God gives no one the right and privilege to do w rong. W e are not only to abstain from all sin, but we are to sbun even its very appearance T o quote th e exact words of P aul: “ A b stain from all appearance of evil. A gain he says, “ W hether there fore ye eat, or drink, o r whatso ever ye do, do all to the glory of G od ” Can you im agine anyone sitting dow n and playing a gam e of rook to the glory ot God? Did you ever do so yourself? Can you sit down and pray G od's blessings upon a gam e of rook, or setback, or a gam e of gam bling? N o, and no one else can. People don’t pray over idle, worldly, tim e w asting, m oral-w recking, influeuce-destroy • Congress R eturns As Congressm en returned 1 0 W ashington after their first vaca tion in m ore than a year of hard w ork, it would seem to be tim ely to appraise the strength and to see w hat the changing political tides m ay cast up next. A glace at the Congressional D irectory shows the follow ing line-up in the H ouse of R epresentatives: D em ocrats...........216 m em bers R epublicans . . . 212 m em bers Progressives .... 2 m embers Farm er-L abor . . . 1 m em ber A m ericrn L abor . . 1 m em ber In the Senate, there is the fol low ing line up: D em ocrats . . . . 58 m em bers Republicans . . . 37 m em bers Progressives . . . t m em bers These figure, when com pared w ith those of recent years, reveal the steady m arch of the R epubli cans back into power A year ago, for exam ple, the Republicans had only 206 seats in the H ouse of Rep resentatives. T w o years ago, they had less than 170 . F our years ago, they bad less than 140. In 1936, they had still tew , and in 1934, the Republicans in the H ouse kidded one another th at they could caucus In a telephone booth. It is freely conceded on Capitol H ill today by m any a Dem ocratic observer th at the Republicans will surge back into pow er in tbe H ouse of R epresentatives and probably win the Senate in N ovem ber. —E x The Trend In spite of tbe fact th at tbe New Deal has spent billions upon billions of the taxpaye s hard earned m oney to entrench itself in control of the governm ent, t h e trend tow ard breaking tbe strangle hold is most noticeable over the period 0 f the last four years. Congress in r940, ju st four years ago, was D em ocratic by a substan tial m ajority and in control of states w ith 309 electoral votes. T he Re publicans had a m ajority in states having 193 electorial votes. Four states, Idaho, Idaho, Indiana, N e. braska and Rhode Island were eventually divided betw een t h e states w ith a total of 29 votes. T oday the reapportionm ent has shifted nine seats. Seven in favor of the R epublicans and tw o favor ing the Dem ocrats. In 1940 there Were 17 Jstates safely w ithin the Republican colum n w ith Idaho, and W est V irginia evenly divided betw een the tw o parties. N ebraska and Indiana in 1940 w ere evenly divided, but today Indiana and N ebraska have gone entirely over to the Republican colum n. W est V irginia is the first state south of th e M ason-Dixon line to split its vote evenly betw een the tw o parties. An X mark after your name means you owe us. it would only be m ockery in the sight of God. Rook players can sit ,and waste hours of their precious tim e, but if they had to listen to a serm an an hour long they w ould fret and com plain and declare the preacher was too long-winded and tedious. T hey can spend hours at rook, but if a prayer m eeting lasted an hour or t wo it would bore them deep and sore. T hey can plav until 1 o’clock in the m orning, but they would call us crazy if we held a prayer m eeting th at long in order to save souls from hell If the preachers and professed C hristians of this nation, and tens of thousands of church m em bers don’t w ake up to the dangers th at are overthrow ing us m orally, physically, m entally, financially and spiritually, there is a dreadful harvest ju st out in front of us. W ould Jesus play rook, or walk hand tn hand w ith evil? No. ing gam e of any kind. If they did I T hen yon had better not. Roosevelt’s Liquor: Must Have M ore Union Republican W e are greatly amused at the an tics of so m any New D ealer editors who claim to be so bitterly opposed to the liquor business and yet fondle to their breasts the one and only m an who is personally responsible for the presence of liquor joints on alm ost every corner in our cities and even lining the lim its of our camps ere our boys are being trained for m ilitary duty. In his speech accepting the presid ential nem ination a t the hands of the Dem ocratic convention in 1932 Franklin Delano Roosevelt proudly proclaimed the 18th am endm ent is doomed. And hardly had he de livered his inaugural address at W ashington and gotten back to the W hite House to live when he set in m otion the machinery to get the 18th am endm ent out of the Constitution. He succeeded through his influence as President and the prom ise ‘we will drink our way back to prosper ity .” Today, ju st 12 years later, the lives of countless thousands of boys and girls, young men and women and older ones have been debauched by roosevelt’s liquor. W ar cam e on and restrictions are kept on alm ost everything but the m aking, selling and drinking of Rooseveit liquor. And some of the New Deal editors are yelling to the American people to “ rise in revolt and flood Congress and the W hite House with protests against such outrageous action in tim e of w ar.” The liquor interests are in full control in W ashington. W e have an adm inistration com plete ly sc Id out body and soul to the li quor industry. Y et these sam e edi tors, claiming to be Christians, plead w ith the voters to give this same wrecker of hum an lives four m ore years in the W hite House. Edm und Foust, editor o f t h e Hoosier Farm er, recently w rote an editorial th at is stirring in its charg es regarding tbe Roosevelt liquor brigade. It is based on the order of the Roosevelt governm ent allowing m uch extra liquor to be m ade during the m onth of A ugust. H e wonders about a m an leading a nation in prayer and then selling a gallon of liquor to each individual in th at na tion. The editorial in full is as fol lows. “G reat battles are being won in France, Italy, Finland, Russia and on the hom e front w here distillers won the ‘go sign’ to m ake some 30,- 000,000 gallons of liquor in the m onth of A ugust. This is a total war, it has been said—a w ar where every one m ust sacrifice to the ex trem e—g et down to the qare neces sities of life, and consider such a privilege. “ In order th at everyone m ight be impressed w ith the seriousness of the w ar. women have been denied such little things as bobby pins, and children have given up their chew- iug gnm . Now the W ar Produdion Board has sensed the grave need for tbe production of liquor—perhaps to keep up the m orale of a fighting na tion. This WPB order will bring to the U nited State about a gallon of liquor for each adult. “ This liquor will be m ade from feed grains and a t a tim e when farm ers are liquidating their live stock because they cannot purchase these grains for feed. Let it not be forgotten th at a governm ent order froze” corn except for sale to com mercial industries. “ D uring the m onth of A ugust, millions of m an hours, and tons of freight space, both rail and truck, will be diverted to the production of liquor. This happens in the most critical hour of tbe w ar period and at a tim e when the Manpower Com mission endeavors to drive every person into supposedly essential jobs. “ It is said, the production of in- dustial alcohol for synthetic rubber tires is far ahead of schedule. Have you tried to get a new tire? Gaso- line rationing still keeps people at home, when this 30 million gallons of liquor to be made would add 600.- 000,000 more miles of travel, instead, it w ere industrial alcohol and blend ed with our gasoline. “ It is a strange paradox when the D avieSoIdier In India.

Twenty-four years ago, Wilson said: “It will bring the League of Nations into being as a living force devoted to the task of assisting the peoples of all countries in their desire for peace, pros- Derity and happiness.” INDIAN TYPHOON When Amb. William Phillips’ fa mous letter advising Roosevelt that India was a U. S. problem leaked into print, the British government sent instructions to all British con suls in this country to inspire let ters to editors, plus editorials in the local press. One man in New York alone wrote 76 letters to different newspapers. . . . Later, British con suls sent copies of editorials, etc., to the British Embassy, with accom panying notes, showing what a good job they had done. . . . In the Em bassy, Jossliiyn Hennessy, British public relations man for India, left off the accompanying notes, sent the editorials to Sir Olaf Caroe in New Delhi, so Sir Olaf could see what a good job Hennessy had been doing. Sir Olaf then sent them to London. . . . Sir Olaf also cabled London that he had been able to keep the Phil lips letter out of India so far, but “under existing conditions” it was sure to be smuggled in, in which case it would be published by the Indian press and there was nothing he could do to stcrp it. . . . By “existing conditions,” Caroe meant anti-British subversion on the part of Indian officials who smuggle news into India despite censorship. Once Inside India, the British can’t prevent publication in Indian news papers.a • • WASHINGTON PERSONALITIES Breath-taking Bob Gros, California lecturer, has the faculty of coming to the nation’s capital every year and interviewing more big-wigs per hour than anyone else in the U.S.A. He has just finished one of his breathless trips and sizes up per formers on the Washington merry- go-round as follows: Wendell Willkie — "The thinking- est, guttiest guy on the merry-go- round; politically unastute.” British Ambassador Lord Halifax —“Worst dressed, but one of the most charming. His sleeves were patched with red thread, he had on almost threadbare gabardine pants.” Donald Nelson—“Determined that small industry shall have a chance to reconvert now, before the ar mistice.” Economic Stabilizer Fred Vinson —"The best balanced.” Secretary of the Navy Forrestal— “Quick, likable, expounds this phi losophy: ‘Administration consists 95 per cent of smoothing out human frictions. The secret of American success is driving, restless energy that makes you have ulcers.’ ” Secretary of War Stimson—"The most arbitrary.” Small Business Administrator Maury Maverick—“The most two- fisted and dynamic.” Jim Farley—"The most realistic political analyst, the most bluntly and disarmingly frank.” In general, Gros found Washing-* ton taking the war in its stride; officialdom much more settled down 'than last year; less excitement, less 'hysteria, more efficiency. • • * MERRlT -GO-ROUND ; C.

A FTER the war there is certain ^ to be a shift in more than a few cities so far as baseball and fobtball are concerned along major lines. There will be a new tidal wave of sport, a greater boom than sport (mew after the first World war in 1919 and 1920. It is almost certain that Los An geles, on its way to 5,000,000 or 6,000,000 population, will be one of the new main centers in both baseball and Football. With transporta tio n so fa r ad vanced and new im provements coming Los Angeles will be only a few hours aw ay from New fork, much less De troit and Chicago. Los Angeles for some time has been one of the big sporting centers of the country. Los Angeles has known football crowds, plus track and field crowds, above 100,000 at the Olympic. How tnany other cities can match this? As a major league baseball city I doubt that any two other big league towns could outdraw this fast grow ing metropolis on the West coast. Los Angeles isn’t the only present minor league city now out to break into the big league show. Baltimore is another. So is Buffalo. Both fine prospects. Baltimore has already proved to be one of the best football spots in the country where crowds from 40,- 000 to 50,000 are willing to pay out money to see pro exhibition games, and where Navy and Notre Dame can pass 60,000. St. Louis is almost sure to lose one of its major league teams. Even pennant winners can’t stir up the in habitants, although both her teams have been setting the pace most of the present season. San Francisco is another big-time spot in sport, one of the best. New Orleans can draw football crowds above 70,000. Rush to Pro Football The rush to professional football after the war ends will be on the terrific side. In addition to the pres ent pro football league, I know of at least three other leagues that are under way, or will be started soon. These will range coast-to-coast and from Texas to the Canadian border. There is hardly room enough for more than two major football leagues, so the unsuccessful team will take a neat beating on the 'financial side. Selections of cities that have spec tator accommodations will play a big part in naming the survivors. Just where they will find enough talent to handle the proposed new leagues is another guess. But there are more than a few willing to risk their cash along these lines. In addition to the cities that make up the present major football league, those under consideration include Los Angeles, Baltimore, Buffalo, Dallas, San Francisco, Atlanta and New Orleans, with a second team in New York. One point to think about is that not all members of the present big league make any financial killing. New York and Washington head the pack. The Chicago Bears have done well. Brooklyn had lost good money. Cleveland was no mint—and the same goes for Detroit. Green Bay Successful Green Bay, with a series of great teams, has made a fine showing for its size. But I wouldn’t know how much money Green Bay has made. It will be interesting to watch this rush to pro football when the fight ings ends. It will at least be a big break for the players who can sit back and take the top offer. But they will first have to be sure they will collect. There should be room enough for two major leagues in football, just as there is in baseball, with the same world series arrangement for the wind-up. But the battle to establish the second league may easily be a wild and woolly affair, where the fur will be knee deep before the finish. I don’t believe anyone can doubt there will be a large and active post war boom in every form of sport. There are too many reasons for this to happen, with some 10,000,000 veterans looking for excitement. Whether or not this boom can match the quality of the first post- World-war boom that gave us Ruth, Dempsey, Bobby Jones, Tilden, Man o’ War and others in those high al titudes is something only the next few years can show.

RELEASE TBE STORT THUS FAR: Zorle Corey Is expected by ber employer's wife, Mrs. Folsomet . to deliver thirty Invitations to tea—in person. She calls at her em ployer's home durine a rainy evening and picks up the Invitations. She has a date this evening with Paul Duncant her Aancet but fears she will be late for it. Utterly despondent about delivering the Invitationst she leans against a telephone pole and cries. Suddenly a man appears. Be listens to her story gravely* then rips the Invitations from her hand* tears them up and tosses them Into the trash basket. He halls a ta d and Instructs the driver to take her where she directs. Paul's Unclet Admiral Duncan* calls on Zorle. CHAPTER IV “What did you say?” he demand ed hoarsely. "What did you say to McGonigle? Did you promise an en dowment?” “I don’t recall just what I said,” his grandfather answered vaguely. “But it’s all right.” “It means I’U lose my job!” “What of it? I have better ideas for you.” “On that plantation?” Paul asked hoarsely. He was breathing hard. “Yes. There’s a fine opening for you—better than the one I men tioned.” “I don’t want it!” Paul cried. “Well, you’re going to take it— hm? You have just time to pack and meet us at the plane. Look at Miss Corey,” he said, smiling be nevolently at Zorie as if she were the final proof of something. “She’s all ready.” Aunt Hannah’s voice broke in, with sleepy irritability: “Ready for what?” She came down the stairs, hold ing her pink quilted dressing gown about her short, plump figure. “This is my Aunt Hannah—Ad miral Duncan,” Zorie murmured. “Ready for what?” Airnt Hannah repeated aggressively. “Good morning, Aunt Hannah,” Paul said in a sardonic voice. “My grandfather has just decided to take Zorie to Hawaii.” Aunt Hannah stared. “What for?” “She’s agreed to help me write my memoirs,” Admiral Duncan an swered.She stared at him, then at Zorie. “How—how long will it take?” she gasped. “At least a*year,” said Paul. “It’s a dandy job.” “But what’s to become of me?” Aunt Hannah wailed. "I can’t af ford to run this house without the— the assistance that Zorie gives me.” “Rent a smaller house,” said the admiral coldly. “Why should I?” she cried. Her nose had become pink as it always did when she was angry. “Zorie is perfectly happy here. She’s quite satisfied. I—I won’t let her go. I’ve always sheltered her. She’s never traveled. She’s too—too young—too innocent. She’s—” “How old is she?” the admiral curtly interrupted. “She’s twenty - four,” Paul an swered. “She can legally do as she pleases,” the admiral said firmly. "She is coming with us to the Is lands—hm?” “She cannot go!” Aunt Hannah cried. “She has obligations! She has a very responsible position with the head—” “She resigned it,” the admiral curtly cut her off. “You have no right coming in here . and interfering in our lives!” “You are,” Admiral Duncan said testily, “a meddlesome woman with nothing to say about it.” “Listen to them!” Zorie marveled. “Not one of them is considering me or what I want. They’re pushing me around as if I were a puck in a hockey game.” Aunt Hannah at this moment ut tered a small scream. She was staring past the admiral at the stairs. The admir&l turned and glanced at the stairs. Paul was looking at the stairs. Zorie turned and looked.A man was slowly coming down. In his left hand was one of Zone’s suitcases. The other was hugged under his right elbow, while, with his right hand, he was balancing on his shoulder her small trunk. Zorie swayed. She thought for a moment she would faint. The man descending the stairs was the big, bronzed, blue-eyed young man to whom she hsd talked in the rain. He was smiling mysteriously at her, with one eyebrow up, He looked sinister. “Put that luggage down!” Aunt Hannah ordered. “Put it in the car,” the admiral said in the same caltfi but authorita tive voice he might have used on the historic occasion, many years pre viously, when he had issued his his toric order, “When you have the range, Lieutenant Horton, you may let those torpedoes go.” The mysterious young man walked leisurely past Aunt Hannah and out of the door. “Zorie!” Aunt Hannah bleated. “Who,” Zorie asked huskily, “is that?”“We’d better be moving,” Admiral Duncan said cheerily, “We mustn’t miss that plane—hm?” “Who,” Zorie repeated, “is that?” Thin - lipped, Paul answered: “Let’s just call him an evil force in motion. That is my brother Steve.” “Zorie!” Aunt Hannah whim pered. “You can’t desert me like this!” Zorie wondered at that moment if the three kisses she had bestowed on the brow of the cast-iron Buddha had anything to do with all this. When the two stewards had placed her two suitcases and her small trunk in the middle of the state room, Zorie Corey tipped each a dollar and wondered if it was enough. From their smiles and their thanks, she assumed that it was. Never having traveled, she was ig norant about such things. She closed the door. She took a deep breath and looked about the room which was to be hers alone for four days and five nights. It was a cozy room done in ivory and pale green. There were twin beds, each against a wall. There was a dress ing-table with triple mirrors.She wondered what Mrs. Folsome was thinking about the telegram she had sent her from Salt Lake City. She had been tempted to send one saying, “So sorry. Going to Ha waii. Your invitations in corner trash basket.” The one she had sent said, “Dread fully sorry. In haste of departure lost your tea invitations. Please du plicate and send me bill.” And she had sent a telegram to Jimmy Hoffbrower, saying: “Your term paper finished, In drawer my typewriter table. Hope you pass all courses with flying colors.” Her thoughts drifted to the big, bronzed young man she had met in the rain. Although she now knew who he was, he remained mys terious. His full name was Stephen 9>m 5SssfS**«a«* She said coolly, “What are you do ing here?” Decatur Duncan and he was, Paul had told her in the plane, in dis grace. Steve had been living in Germany. His political sympa thies were very pro-Nazi. He had a rascally reputation. Steve was being taken back to Uluwehi by his grandfather, who, Paul said, was disgusted with him.“Steve is in the doghouse,” Paul had explained, “and the less said the better.” She slipped into sodden sleep. A series of bangings aroused her. Three men were in the stateroom and they were depositing luggage on the floor beside hers. It was beautiful luggage of all shapes and sizes, but all of a pattern, a soft faun color with bright red-and-blue bands about it, and all stamped in gold with the initials A.L. Zorie sat up and gazed at it. There were at least ten pieces of this handsome luggage. Then a girl came sailing into the room—a girl of about Zorie’s age and size, and she was slim, dark and beautiful. She had brown eyes and a dusky lovely skin. She looked as if she might be Spanish or French. She hardly glanced at Zorie. She said coolly, “What are you doing in here?” She had the kind of accent that you associate with sophisticated people who have lived a great deal abroad—not English, or French, or German, or Italian, or Russian, but a smooth blending of them all. “I—I thought this was my room,” Zorie answered meekly. The girl glanced at Zorie again, then stared. Her eyes seemed to grow huge. Her lovely color faded. “Who are you?” she gasped. “My name is Zorie Corey.” - “Where are you from?” Confused by her sharpness, Zorie told her. The girl stared at her a few sec onds longer, then her color im proved. She laughed and said, “We’ll see about this. I paid for exclusive occupancy of this room and I intend to have it.” She was, once again, sharp and vigorous and sure. She was the kind of girl, Zorie thought enviously, whom people don’t push around. The girl sat down on the unoccu pied bed and snatched up the tele phone. She asked sharply for the purser. When she got him, she said vigorously: "This is Amber Lanning. Stateroom 221. There’s someone else in here. I paid for exclusive occu pancy of this cabin and I insist on having it.” “I was supposed to have exclu sive occupancy, too,” Zorie said meekly. Amber Lanning glanced at her with raised eyebrows. She said vig orously: “The person who’s in here says she also paid for exclusive oc cupancy . . . What? Well, do some thing about it! I can't travel with another person. I refuse .... What?” For some time Miss Lanning lis tened with a bored expression to the explanation from the purser’s de partment. She hung up the phone with vio lence, jumped up and said, with ges tures: "It isn’t even a mixup. He says they’re packed. He says the government demands so many cabins every voyage for defense work ers and navy wives and such and that we’re lucky to have accommo dations at alL He says he’ll try to do something about it. Well, he’d better.” She tipped the three waiting stew ards. She glanced at Zorie’s worn old suitcases and her battered old trunk. It was the size and shape of a modern field trunk, or foot locker. Zorie’s father had used it on camp ing trips and it looked it. “Are these yours?” Miss Lanning asked. “Y-yes,” said Zorie. If there had been any other place to go, she would have gone. But there were no other places. Zorie sat on her bed while the dark-skinned girl briskly unpacked her bags and hung things up. She hung up dresses and skirts and gowns and nightgowns and lounging pajamas and coats and other things in both closets until both were full. Then she went about hanging things on hangers about the room until there wasn’t a hook left. Zorie was sure she was hanging up a great many of these things needlessly; that she would not have a chance to wear a fraction of this wardrobe on the trip. The telephone rang. Amber fairly leaped across the room to answer it. “Yes?” she cried, on an ascend ing soprano scale. “Who? Wait a minute.” She glanced resentfully at Zorie. “It’s for you.” Zorie tremblingly took the phone. She was relieved and happy at the interruption. Now Miss Lanning could shower or dress or do what ever she wanted without the feeling that every movement she made was being watched. “Yes?” Zorie said meekly. “Hullo, honey.” It was Paul. He sounded in much better spirits than when she had last seen him, and she hoped he had had a couple of drinks, although Paul disapproved of drink ing.“Make yourself beautiful,” Paul said, “and come and join us in the admiral’s suite for cocktails and din ner. We’ll dance afterward. We’re dressing. Will you?” “Of course,” Zorie said meekly. “It’s number Twenty-seven, on B Deck,” Paul said. “Make it snap py, darling', will you?” “Yes,” said Zorie. When she turned from the phone, she saw that Amber Lanning had not taken advantage of her privacy at all. She was wandering about the room. Zorie was, she realized, caught in another trap set by her meekness. She did not have the courage to go about the relatively simple job of undressing, showering and dressing, because this girl, with her simple egotism, her unquestioning self-as surance had her buffaloed. Zorie glanced at her wrist-watch. It was almost six. Ten minutes must have gone by while she sat there, unable to move, frozen by whatever the word is for the exact opposite of confidence, sureness and courage. The bed on which she sat was shaking gently, but this was not entirely due to the state of her nerves. Even as she wondered about it, the stateroom tilted ever so little, and she realized that, while she was sleeping, the “Samoa” must have left its pier, and that when Miss Lanning looked out of the port hole and made her ecstatic remarks, the last of San Francisco was to be seen, and that they were now at sea. Miss Lanning leisurely took from hangers and drawers the things she might or might not be intending to wear this evening. The telephone rang again and she answered it. “Yes, Uncle Win!” she cried. “Yes, dear. But of course, dar ling!” She seemed very excited. She spoke rapidly in Spanish. Then: “No! I’m sure. She’s just a nice sweet little American girl. All right. I’ll see you in about forty minutes.” Zorie glanced again at her watch. Forty minutes! The time was now 6:28. More than half an hour since Paul had phoned. But she could not move. She was chained to her bed by her meekness. Zorie started to get off the bed, then relaxed again. There was very little she could do—or would do— until her roommate was gone. So she waited and perspired and fumed. Miss Lanning took a long shower. It took her forever to dry herself. She came out of the bath room, all pink and glowing, and sat down at the dressing table.

Small G rain Practice Farm ers of Davie County may earn a practice paym ent of $1.50 per acre under the 1945 AAA farm pro gram for establishing w inter clover from seedings this fall of wheat, oats, barley, rye, or m ixtures of these grains, it was announced to day by N . B. Dyson, chairm an of the county AAA Committee. To qualify for this paym ent, Mr. Dyson, a protective w inter cover m ust be provided and the crop m ust not be harvested for grain. How ever, it may be pastured, cut for bay, turned under as green m anure crop, or left on the land as a “ go down” crop next spring. The seed i bed should be well prepared and the) seed sown sufficiently early to per m it plants to w ithstand w inter free* zes. Citing the urgent need for keep ing farm land in condition for peak production to m eet w ar needs, Mr. Dyson declared th at record produc tion levels attained by the nation’s farm ers during the past seven years have been due largely to the fact th at per acre yields w ere increased through widespread use uf sound conservation m easures encouraged) by the AAA. j In view nf the shortage of legume? seed this fall, he said, farm ers of Davie County should take advantage of this opportunity under the AAA program to protect their soil against erosion throngh use of small cover crops. W inter Legume Seed Still A vailable D uring the past week Davie Coun ty farm ers ordered 1330 pounds of vetch and 660 pounds of Austrian W inter Peas. This is a very small am ount. Tbe seed are available to anv farm er co operating with the AAA program and it is really a sham e for them not to be used. A lot of people in the countv will not learn their full paym ent and they can get the seed a t not cost to them . The seed are in Mocksville and can be had any day in the week. The tim e for success* ful seeding iB growing short; We urge vou to come in and get your seed right away. G aither I. Howard G.

W Lunch Boxes Can Be Versatile (See Recipes Below) Lunch Box Tips Vacation times are over! Invigo rated by fresh air and tanned by the sun, children, of fice workers and defense plant em ployees are re turning to their various duties. It’s important that a healthful schedule be fol lowed after re turning to work so that the benefits of vacations are not despoiled immediately. That means, for one thing, a sensible lunch to carry both children and adults energetically through the day. Lunches, whether they’re eaten in the quiet of home, at the school desk or in a plant cafeteria, should con tain a third of the day’s food and nutritional requirements. Here’s the plan: Z or more good sandwiches Yi to I pint of milk Salad or stuffed eggs, carrot strips or celery Dessert—pudding, cake or sweet Surprises—dates, nuts, candy, etc. Before we get into suggestions to amplify the plan, let’s first set up a list of equipment which is good to have on hand for the makings of lunch. When the lunch is an every day matter, and there are more than one to make, perhaps, it’s a good idea to get a corner of the cupboard with equipment ready so as to save time in making. A bread board with a sharp knife for cutting bread, and another knife or spatula to make the spreading of butter and fillings easy is a must. Then you need waxed paper for wrapping, string or rubber bands for tying in some cases, paper napkins, paper cups or jelly glasses with tightly fitting covers for salads, pud dings, etc., straws for drinking, forks and spoons, individual salt and pepper cellars to tuck in the lunch box itself. In a corner of the refrigerator it self, you can keep butter for spread ing (to be taken out night before so as to be soft for spreading in the m orning), fruits and vegeta bles, salads, pud dings, and jars of sandwich filling. This latter can be made at any time during the day and stored for use. Make enough to last for several days. Now, we’re ready for the business of the lunch itself. Sandwiches are first on the list. Everyone knows how to make sandwiches, but are they the kind you like to eat? Use this score card for them: 1. Is the bread fresh and moist? 2. Is there a variety of bread from day to day? 3. Is the filling palatable and Whole Milk Selling sjBarter of a million farmers oSfcwa- aftritched from selling farm- lsarateafed cream to selling whol< ijsmft ccring the last five years, ,'Sfessfr safes of whole milk at whole- jarfleancreased from 40 billion pounds >e for 1935-39 to 60 billion i last year, a jump of 50 pel .

Lynn Says Cooking Quiekies: Whipping cream won’t whip? Pour it into a bowl and set in another bowl filled with cracked ice. Then beat and watch it whip. Use liquid from canned or cooked vegetables with which to flavor soups, gravies and casse roles. Make one crust pies instead of two crust ones. It saves time and pastry. Save dabs of butter from but ter plates. Use them for flavor ing vegetables in cooking. Don’t over-buy because foods are a bargain. Buy only those you can use. Grind bits of leftover meat, mix with softened butter or mayon naise, pickle relish, celery and a dash of catsup. Store in jars and set in refrigerator until sandwich time.

Is the filling spread out to the sides of the bread? 5. Is the sandwich well wrapped so that it is not ,messy and dried out by the time lunch time comes'? 6. Is the filling varied from time to time? Here is a good, home-made bread to keep on your list when you are using a lot for sandwiches: Partial Whole Wheat Yeast BTead.

Some flours require more liquid than others. Then add softened shortening, mix well and turn out onto a floured board. Knead dough until it is elastic and does not stick to the board. Place in a greased bowl and cover. Allow to rise until doubled. Shape into 4 me dium loaves and place in greased tins. Let rise to top of tins or dou ble in bulk.

RELIGION IN THE LIFE OF A NATION LESSON TEXT—tl Samuel 7:17-29.GOLDEN TEXT—The LokI shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Isaiah $0:19. "Righteousness exalteth a nation”; (Prov. 14:34). True religion is vital to the life of a nation and is the only foundation for national sta bility and growth. David, the man after God’s own heart, knew this, and was not content that the ark of God, the center of the nation’s wor ship, should be without a suitable house. He was not one to be con tent with a fine palace for his own comfort while the ark of God had a temporary abiding place within curtained walls (v. 2). Although the prophet Nathan en couraged him in his plan (v. 3), the Lord revealed to the prophet that David was not to build His house (see I Chron. 22:8, 9), but to prepare the materials so that his son Solomon could do it. David’s response to that message reveals the true religious attitude of a king and a people who fear and worship Gnd. Tlioy were ready to— I. Receive God’s Grace (vv. 18- 22). The great Davidic covenant, which is yet to have its final ful fillment in David’s greater son, our Lord Jesus, was made with him at this time. He was promised that the throne of his kingdom was to be established forever (vv. 13-15), a prophecy to be fulfilled in Christ. But there was also the great promise of blessing upon David's son Solomon, and the reminder of God’s grace upon David, the one brought up from the sheepcote to be king (v. 8). In humility of heart David re ceived this grace and thanked God for it. Note such expressions as “Who am I?” “What is my house?” “What can David say more?” and “For thy word’s sake thou hast done these great things.” David knew and admitted his unworthiness; he realized that this was indeed un-' merited favor from God, but he ac cepted it as God’s gift. II. Recognize God’s Power (w,. 23, 24). Israel had seen the mighty hand of God at work on their behalf re peatedly, since the day God had brought them forth out of Egypt. God had literally redeemed them for Himself, a purchased possession, protected by His limitless power. That redemption was not only na tional but spiritual—they were set free from the gods of Egypt (v. 23) and confirmed to the Lord (v. 24). It is a great and noble thing when a nation recalls its past and thanks God for His powerful hand upon its destiny. It has been said that a na tion which does not remember its past will not have a future worth remembering; and ,when it remem bers, let it recognize God in its his tory. He is the God of the nations as well as of individuals. In . Rest in God’s Promise (w . 25-27). “Do as thou hast said.” That is a perfect prayer for any nation. Let the will of God be done, and all will be well—now and in the future. There is nothing commendable about doubting God’s promise or limiting Him in fulfiUmg it. It glori fies God and magnifies His name to take Him at His word and to confi dently expect Him to fully meet His promise. To do anything else is to reflect on His power and His Uitegrifar. It was the prayer of David that the Lord’s name might be magni fied forever in the keeping of the covenant which He had made with him. That squarely put all of the authority' and dependability of God behind the keeping of the promise. David found peace of heart there. May not we do likewise, resting on the promises of God? IV. Rejoice in God’s Blessing (w . 28, 29). David praised God for the as surance that His words were true, and claimed the promise of a blessing upon his house, “That it may continue forever before thee.” He evidently saw beyond the im mediate fulfillment of the promise in Solomon to the coming of Christ (cf. w . 18, 19; Rom. 4:5-8). And his heart leaped for joy at the un speakable honor which had thus come to him. This is substantiated by the trans lation of verse 19 by the Hebrew scholar Adam Clarke: “O Lord God, thou hast spoken of thy servant’s house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me in the arrange ment about the MAN that is to be from above, O God Jehovah.” Little wonder, then, that David raised his voice and heart in praise and worship. His “adoration and thanksgiving at the revelation of this great truth is beautiful. Its humility, faith, and gratitude reach a sublimity unequalled since Moses” (James M. Gray).

First, the invasion needs money. Bonds pay for planes and guns and munitions______________ with which tobeat the Axis. Our fighting men m ust have the best possible equipment and it is up to us to let our money provide this.A second reason is this: T h e re is a shortage of goods now. Later on there will be plenty for civilian desires. Money put into War Bonds now will be available then. Business opportunities will be open then, too, and the “nest egg” saved now may hatch out commercially then. Monty put Into War Bonds now will be deprived of its current potentiality as a part of the causes of Inflation. You will be doing your part toward stabilizing the money situation by buying Bonds instead ct dwindling stocks. Hiat is a third reason.But the best reason from a selfish viewpoint is this: Right now there is no better investment than War Bonds. There is no safer repository for your money. By buying Bonds you become a stockholder in the strongest “going” concern in Uie world today, the United States of America. THE EDITOR.

W h y F a r m e r s S h o u l d B u y a n d K e e p W a r B o n d s by R. R. Renne President M ontana State College B UILDING financial reserves, paying off debts, helping to fight dangerous inflation, and patriotism, are all good reasons why farmers should buy and hold War Bonds.A good financial reserve is an important part of sound farm management. War Bonds are safe investments and are almost as liquid as cash. Thus, they com prise an excellent financial re serve for unexpected needs and emergencies. After the last war prices fell rapidly, as they have after every major war, and thou sands of American farmers lost their farms because they could not veather the economic storm. No other factor is more essential for continued satisfactory farm opera tions, through good years and bad, than adequate financial reserves.In addition to unexpected needs for emergencies, farmers need adequate reserves to finance repairs, replacements and improve ments around the farm. Difficulties in obtaining needed materials and labor for these expenditures cause farm buildings and equip ment to wear out faster during the war period than in peacetime. If farmers can wait until sometime after the war ends to make these repairs and improvements, their dollars should go farther than they will immediately following the war, and better quality materials will probably be available. Moreover, too rapid or forced cashing of War Bonds immediately after the war could create a serious situation and contribute to post-war inflation. Also, holding Bonds to maturity makes it possi ble for the farmer to increase his investment by one-fourth through accumulated interest. Still another reason for having a good re serve in the form of War Bonds is that funds WiE be available for the boys when they return, to assist them in getting established in peacetime pursuits.Many farmers still have long-term mortgage debt out standing against their proper ty. Investment in War Bonds now makes it possible for the farmer to help finance the war and at the same time accumulate the funds which will en able him to liquidate his debt in a lump sum after the war. Systematic purchase of War Bonds furnishes a very orderly and sure way of accumulating the necessary funds for liquidation of debt that requires large lump sums for settlement. The extremely heavy expenditures required to carry on modern total war creates high purchasing power, which combined with short ages of materials and labor, cause serious inflationary threats. Most farmers can remember the very high prices which occurred during the last war and the very low prices and depression which followed. With the present scale of operations much greater than during the first war, it is imperative that widespread inflation in gener al prices and in. land be prevented. Using surplus funds to purchase War Bonds helps reduce inflationary pressure in commodity markets and, at the same time, helps finance the war. Building financial reserves, paying off debts and fighting inflation, comprise adequate reasons for buying War Bonds. However, there is still another major reason why farmers should invest in War Bonds until it hurts and this is the patriotic reason. We are engaged in a very serious struggle to preserve democracy and our way of life. The sooner we can win this war the fewer lives of our sons and daughters will be lost. Our youth are making great sacrifices on the battlefronts all over the world, and it is up to each one of us on the homefront to give all we have.

Im m ediately he launched a spending career never before dream ed of in the political life a any nation in the world. H e spent m ore th an $ 6 0 per capita and collected in taxes $4 0.

"M ost of our troubles and the m uch graver ones threaten us in the future have come out of the fact that the New Deal party under —r. Roosevelt has sought to m ix totalitarian and Dem ocratic govern m ent and they no m ore than oil and w ater.” " I hope you will bear in m ind," Bromfield told the delegates, " , . . th a t the speaker is by tradition and conviction an active m em ber of the Dem ocratic party who will this year for the first tim e in his life, vote for a Republican candidate for Pre sio en t.” " I am here tonight only because I believe w ith deep sincerity that four m ore of the present, tired, com prom ised and divided adm inis tratioD would be a calam ity for the nation,” he continued, "and th at a change of adm inistration will serve to forestall and to deseat the divis ion, fear and confusion upon which th e New Deal has built its whole career.” C iting the D em ocratic convention as "one of the m ost sham eful spec tacles in the history of Am erican politics, ” th e author said that he thought the “ proceedings m ade up the m inds of at least three or four m illion Dem ocrats to step over the line in 1944 and vote for G overnor D ew ey.” Broomfield, who touched on "M r. Roosevelt’s indespensibility as com m ander-in-chief,” declared "it is preposterous to sav th at am ong the countless brilliant and inform ed men in this great nation th at only one can do the job.” Glimpses "H ere it comes—there it goes’ 1 can be said of th e m achinery de< sperately needed by Am erica, her allies, and the conquered nations, T he optism istic statem ent to the Senate th at A m erican farm ers are “ seeing” the farm m achinery thev need brought foith the inform a tion th at m ost of the m ach’nery * seen” by N orth D akota farm ers is going past them on the w ay to Canada, Russia, New Zealand, A us. tralia, E ngland and A frica.

N ational Grange Con vention at W inston- Salem P reparationafor tbe big conven tion of tbe National Grange a t Wins- ton-Salem, N orth Carolina, opening W ednesday m orning, Novem ber 15. and continuing nine days, are going forw ard rapidlv and there is every indication of a large attendance of m em bers from tbe Carolina and ad* jacent states, in addition to the de legate body of representatives from 37 states, reaceing entirely across the continent. Governor J. Melville Broughton will extend a hearty wel come to the assembled Patrons, and on the program for each day’s ses sion will appear prom inent leaders in N orth Carolina state affaire, as wall as from the State University and other agricultural groups. The National G range holds three business sessions daily, starting early in the m orning and continuing until late evening, besides one or two early m orning breakfasts, at which such m atters as cooperative projects, in surance activities, etc., will be the subject for live discussions. Al) tbe conveution events will be held in the big ball room of the R obert B. Lee headquarters hotel, except tbe con ferring of the Seventh Degree on Friday. November 17, for which the beautiful Reynolds M emorial Audi torium affords am ple facilities. Various conferences of workers will be held on the several conven* tions days, the largest of which will be made up of Pomona and !subordi nate lecturers, in charge of the N a tional L ecturer, Jam es C. Farm er of Keene, New Ham pshire. Representative of other farm or ganizations will address the conven tion, in-as-aiuch as these groups are working heartily together with, the G range on postw ar planning and the agricultural program ahead. A- m erican Farm Bureau Federation, and another convention speaker whose expected m essage will be eag erly aw aited will be Eric Johnston, president of the United States Cham ber of Commerce. The annual ritualistic session of Saturday m orning, N ovem ber 18, wil be devoted to a dem onstration of the Becret work of Grange organization and will be followed a t 12:30 EIaBt* era W ar Time by a coast-tocoaat broadcast over the National Broad* casting company netw ork, on which prom inent G range leaders will carry a missage from tiieir respective de partm ents to the m em bership of the entire nation. This is not biennial election year in the National Grange and the only place in the official force to be filled is th at of one m em ber of the execu tive com m ittee for three years, the the term expiring this year being th at of State M aster Kenzie S. Bag- shaw of Pennsylvania. The principal social feature of the convention will be "th e night be fore,” when a fellowship dinner will be staged as a fittnig prelude to t e session itself, at which the North Carolina S tate Grange will be host to its visitors from many states, and under directions of state M aster H arry B. Caldwell of N orth Carolina an appropriate program will be the banquet accom panim ent. On Thursday evening, Novem ber 16, the fifth and sixth degrees will be conferred in the ballroom of the Robert E. Lee Hotel, preparatory to the Seventh D egree the following day, and a t the two Friday sessions of 2:30 and 8 P. M., November 17. it is expected th at the num ber of Sev enth Degree initiates may reach 2500. M ajor attention of the Winston- Salem session will be centered an legislative and kindred m atters, in which during recent years the Na* tional Grange has taken such pro* m inent leadership in behalf of the National G range has taken such pro m inent leadership in behalf of the nation’s agricultural w elfare. Tbe com plete report of these activities tbe past year will be presented to the convention by Fred Rrenckm an, W ashington legislative representa tive. while a considerable portion of Niiticnal M aster A lbert S. Gross, A L etter to Federal O ffice H olders Shakespeare m akes one of his char acters say, “ Dog, wouldst bite the hand th at feeds thee!” The Demo* cratic state organization of Oregon has reversed tbe sentim ent saying, in effect, to tbe federal officeholders of the state “do not bite tbe band th at feeds thee by failing to support the President for a fourth term ” The letter o f solicitation sent out to tbe federal office holders from the office of the Dem ocratic national com m ittee a t Portland over the sig nature of Lew W allace, national com m itteem an, is truly am azing. The intent of the laws of the land certainly has been to avoid pressure upon individuals to contribute to po* Iitical cam paigns, yet here is a state political organization applying all the pressure one could well im agine to impel office holders to fork over. "W e suggest,” the letter says, "th a t a contribution of not less than $80,- 000 be m ade by you to help along tbe cause.” It may be true, as the letter states, that there is nothing in the H atch act, or in the Civil service regula tions to prohibit an employe from expressing hi» political views or con tributing to support of a party, but there certainly ought to be, if there is not. som ething in the law and the regulations to prevent a political party organization from setting tbe thum bscrew s to force federal em ployes to give certain suggested a m ounts, or any am ounts. Presum ably tbe am ounts penned in the blank spaces in the letters are in ac cordance w ith the abiiity of each of* ficeholder to pay, based on his salary or wages, hence it is evident th at the lists of officeholders and the a- m ounts of their salaries m ust have been m ade available to the Democra tic organization of Oregon so th at they could be solicited for funds in this m anner. From tbe viewpoint of tbe Presi dent’s adm irers, certainly “ the m ost pressing m atter before the Ameri can people” is his re-election, but opinions differ. O thers think th at "th e m ost pressing m atter before the Am erican people” is the defeat of the fourth term aspirations of the President, elim ination of machine of politics and politicians, and a return to sound governm ent. In any event the request for funds from "those who have been tbe beneficiaries of his adm inistration” does not sound like an appeal to pat* riotism , but, politically stated, like an appeal to self interest.—Oregon Daily Courier.____________ Eggs On The M arch T his is tbe saga of 108,000 dozen eggs—and a N ew Deal bureau. Back last M ay, the W ar Food A dm inistration purchased the eggs in M innesota, ostensibly for w ar purposes. T be eggs were shipped to Cleveland, apparently to be sent into dry w arehouse storage. B ut the eggs w eie transferred to an egg-breaking establishm ent in M issouri. (N 0 cracks, please') were shipped to O m aha, and from thence back t 0 S t. Paul, from whence they bad departed several m onths before. T hev were from St. Paul to Chi cago, w here tb e Illinois D epart m ent of A g. Icultutecaught up'w ith them , decided som ething ought to be done about these eggs. T hey bad become bad eggs, so th e Illi- nois departm ent official placed a seizure order against them . A t last reports, tbe state officials were aw aiting W ashington approval to to do aw ay w ith these eggs. I t only cost $4 ,2 0 0 in freight charges to send the eggs on tbeir cross-country joyride.

A NORWICH PRODUCT Keep the Battle Rolling W ith W ar Bonds and Scrap I M eal C ontrasts In C olor. T exture H elp A ppetite Cheese Souffle Sandwiches team up with ripe olives to give good fla vor and color contrast to those quickie lunches. How is your contrast IQ in m eals? Do you serve whitefish, potatoes and cauliflower all at the sam e m eal and expect the fam ily to eat it? Do you put be fo re them B ean Loaf, mashed squash and bread pudding and ex pect them to find the m eal palatable? Yes, the foods are all highly nu tritious and m ay be well prepared, but there’s an im portant elem ent in m eal planning missing in these sug gestions. It is contrast. There’s a lack of contrast in flavor, color and texture in these food combinations, and without that m eals will often go uneaten. Real interest in foods is an inter est in the way they look and how they feel in the mouth. If the m eal is colorful, the fam ily is im m ediate ly attracted. There is also a de sire for different textures. That’s why the fam ily wants something crispy in a salad when they have a soft food like stew, Spanish rice or* spaghetti. People are very fond of m acaroni and com or potatoes and parsnips, but they don’t care for them at the sam e m eal. If you’re having m ac aroni, try serving it with something green like green beans, peas, broc coli or asparagus and watch the fam ily go for it. The table will be m ore colorful, too, and we eat with our eyes, too, you know. Now, how would you like this com bination? Mock drum sticks, lim a beans and carrots.

First, here’s the m enu I’d suggest: Vegetable Broth or G rapefruit Juice Cheese Souffle Sandwich Jellied F ruit Salad Beverage Date Bars A double boiler will help the cook produce perfect souffle sandwiches; Cheese Souffle Sandwich. (Serves 6) 6 slices white bread i i pound processed C heddar cheese Dash of pepper Dash of paprika 3 eggs Ripe olives Toast the bread (crusts trim m ed) on both sides. Melt the cheese in the top of a double boiler. Add pep per and paprika to egg yolks. Beat until thick, then fold this m ixture into egg whites which have been beaten until stiff but not dry. Pile on toast and bake in a m oderate oven (350 degrees) until puffy and golden brown. Place on a chop plate and garnish with ripe olives. For the fruit salad suggestion, you m ay have cherry flavored gelatin with melon balls and dark grapes; lemon flavored gelatin with pine apple, white grapes, nutm eats, and cherries. Mock Drum sticks, crisply coated and fried to tenderness, are fine foil for whole cooked carrots and lim a beans. Use a circular platter to carry out the pattern. Date bars are a chewy contrast to the rest of the m eal. D ate Bars.

Tenure Solved by D ad-Son P artnership National Farm Life Can Be Made Secure “One of the fundam ental needs of agriculture is to have a succession of the sam e family on the sam e land throughout succeeding generations,” according to H. C. M. Case, Uni versity of Illinois college of agri culture. In m aking that statem ent, Case said that he was thinking of the good of the individual, the com munity and the nation. One of the m ajor problem s of agriculture is the movement of capi tal and earnings from the country to the city. In a period of ten years, approxim atley six and one-half million people go from the country to the city during norm al conditions. The costs of their education, the in heritance of farm property by city dwellers and collection of rent from a farm property by city dwellers m ake a heavy drain on the land. This situation also m akes it difficult for young people rem aining in the country to secure a foothold as farm operators and eventually to become owners of farm property. One way of m eeting the situation is by m eans of father-son partner ships on the farm . Case offered four specific suggestions, each based upon a well-kept system of records regarding kinds of father-son ar rangem ents which m ay be m ade to facilitate the young m an getting a start on the farm : (1) Where the father owns all the land, equipment and livestock, and the son supplies only his labor. The common arrangem ent is to guar antee the son hired-man wages, but if a given share of the farm in come agreed upon by the father and son exceeds the amount of wages, then he receives an additional amount at the end of the year. (2) Where the father is a tenant and the son contributes only labor. The plan is sim ilar to the first one in so far as the son is guaranteed a going wage, but he receives a cor respondingly larger share of the in come received by the father because his labor will amount to a larger proportion of the contribution to the farm ing operation than it would if he also owned the farm . (3) Where the father and son oper ate a farm jointly. If the son lacks capital, he can give his father a promissory note and pay interest on his share of the investm ent of the operating capital, which would put him in the status of a tenant with his father. Under this plan, the father would receive the landlord share of the income from the farm , but in addition the father and son as equal tenants would divide any additional earnings between them . (4) Where the father is ready to retire. In this instance, the son as tenant m ay take over the owner ship of the operating capital, even though he lacks the capital to pur chase it outright. He m ay give his father a note and pay interest on the investm ent or the operating capi tal and become a full operating ten ant of the farm . Or it m ay be desir able for the father to retire while still owning the operating capital. Under this scheme, the son m ay ac cept a sm aller share of the income from the farm in order to give his father adequate pay for his invest m ent in both the farm and the opdk- ating equipment. Health Improved by Control of Parasites Cattle grubs spoil one out of every three hides by puncturing the skin, and also cause considerable loss of m eat. Sim ilar dam age is also done by ticks, m ites, lice and other anthropod parasites which interfere with growth and m ake anim als un thrifty. Rotenone and selected dips are recommended as an antidote. Worm parasites of the digestive tract injure older stock, and cause m any deaths, especially among young animals. As m uch as 125 mil lion dollars a year is lost by the dam age they inflict. Nodular worms, for example, spoil sheep intestines for catgut sutures and sausage cas ings. Fhenothiazine is the principal recom mended remedy. Animal livers are spoiled for food and for use in m edicinal prepara tions by liver flukes (flat, leaflike parasites) and fringed tape worms. W artim e research has produced a hexachlorethane • bentonite suspen sion for the control of liver flukes in cattle. Two slices of bread wasted once a week in each home equal three million wasted loaves per year. Protein for Poults Young turkeys thrive on a simple Vegetable-protein diet which does not require any of the anim al pro teins in scarce supply because of the war, U. S. departm ent of agri culture research has determ ined. Soybean m eal and peanut m eal were the chief high-protein feeds used in the test diets. Most rapid growth to six weeks of age cam e from a m ash containing ground wheat and soybean m eal, together with some alfalfa-leaf meaL SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS F la r e d P e p lu m S o f tly F e m in in e S p o r ts J e r k i n H a s D o z e n U s e s Straight Skirt, Peplum Blouse A SOFT, utterly fem inine dress which consists of straight skirt and a peplum blouse.

FEAR OF CASUALTIES The inside story can now be told regarding one of the greatest wor ries of the Allied High Command in connection with the Normandy in vasion—namely, casualties. It was feared they would be terrifically high. In fact, Prim e M inister Churchill, who had hung back from a cross- channel front for two years, feared the Allies might suffer losses com parable to the early days of the last war, when the cream of British manhood, then relatively untrained, was mowed down in Flanders fields. He frequently told FDR that he was worried about losing the “seed” of Britain. Tliis worry gives an insight into the sudden change between the type of slow fighting during the first few weeks in Normandy and the head long onrush of today. Allied orders during the, early weeks in Normandy were to ad vance under a “curtain of steel.” As a result, the greatest artillery bar rage ever laid down in history was thrown at the Germans in advance of Allied infantry. It was an artil lery barrage so heavy that it wiped out alm ost everything in its path. However, it was slow. It took tim e to unload big guns on shallow beaches. It also took tim e to bat ter down German positions. But once these positions were battered down, and the rim of German de fense was broken, the Allies found what General Eisenhower knew was the case—a complete m ilitary vac uum inside. In other words, the Nazis had staked everything on holding the rim , had no defenses in the in terior. That is the explana tion for the headlong rush of Al lied forces in recent weeks. The Nazis were gambling on their Atlantic wall, a wall which could not stand up under Brad ley’s “ curtain of steel.” NOTE — General Montgomery’s cautious advances in Normandy probably reflected in part Church ill’s worry over casualties. How ever, he has been cautious in other 1 areas also. Before the Battle of El Alamein, when the British arm y had been pushed back and back across the desert toward Cairo, Montgomery queried his chief, Gen eral Alexander: “What casualties can I take?” Alexander, with the fate of the Suez canal at stake, re plied: “One hundred per cent.” Caution, of course, is no reflection on courage. * » « SAILOR’S OUTMODED UNIFORM Now that Adm. Ernie (“Clothes Horse” ) King has finally relented and will let naval officers shed their jackets under certain conditions in hot weather, a lot of sailors wish he would also examine the unifoi m of the enlisted man. Most enlisted men would whoop with joy if their present, long-out- fiioded uniform was discarded. What most people don’t realize is that the sailor’s uniform was designed by the British about 200 years ago and is now just as outmoded as the sailing ship. Take, for instance, the broad col- IPir worn over the shoulders. It was designed for vermin-infested ships 1 of the 1700s, when sailors had to be deloused and a broad collar was practicable to catch the tar oils used in a sailor’s hair. Again, the bell-shaped trousers, which flap around the ankles and nearly trip the w earer when he runs, were designed for days when sailors rolled their trousers up over their legs to scrub decks. Today, dunga- ! rees are provided for this sort of work. j Again the drop front, 13-button ' trousers were designed for a day two centuries ago when tidiness was nothing like what it is today. One thing which particularly gripes the enlisted m an is the tight- fitting waist of his blouse, which has to be slipped on and off over his head. If a sailor is dumped into the w ater and has to swim for any length of tim e, it is alm ost impossi ble to get this blouse off. It is tight, sticks to the body, and you can't very well swim and at the same tim e hold two arm s above your head while you wriggle out of your middy. Some of the boys wish that Ad m iral King would take off his new grey-green uniform, designed for him by His M ajesty’s tailor in Lon don, long enough to experiment with a middy-blouse in the w ater. They think that, despite a century’s de lay, he would then design for them a new uniform overnight. * * • CAPITAL CHAFF C. Before every White House press conference, scores of newsmen crowd against the velvet rope out side the President’s office, awaiting the signal to enter. When secret service men let the barriers down, the rush is terrific. Cracked one perspiring secret service man, “It’s worse than a New York subway.” H F irst new international magazine to be published in liberated France is a French edition of “Free World,” edited by m er.fcts of the French underground. G e r m a n R o a d B lo c k s F a il to H a lt A llie s The Germ ans spend considerable tim e and supplies in erecting blockades which prevent the rapid advance of the Allied arm ies. The blockades had little effect as noted by rapid progress being m ade in T rance. Left, is a Germ an road block along the w ater front in St. Raphael, southern France. Another type of block, shown at right, was used in P aris. C h in e s e S o ld ie r s C ro s s T r e a c h e r o u s R iv e r Chinese soldiers m arch to the front crossing the treacherous Salween river by m eans of a tem porary suspension bridge. The original bridge w as blown tip by the Chinese as a m easure against the Japanese ad vance. All supplies for the Chinese forces in this district have to be carried by Chinese on their hacks or dropped by planes. Increased transport planes have m ade it possible to begin to furnish the fighting Chinese in the Salween river section with m uch needed weapons, food and other supplies. S h i p L o a d e d W i t h J a p D e a t h Rows of huge shells wind along the decks of a U. S. battleship as it loads up somewhere in the Pacific preparatory to carrying out its assign m ent of blasting Jap holdings. The inferno loosed by its guns cleared a path for the landing forces, which w ere then able to send a landing party ashore to capture the base. M a r i n e V e ts R e t u r n H o m e Home for tbe first tim e in 30 months, some 300 m arines of the Second division, heroes of fighting the Japs on Guadalcanal, Saipan, Taraw a and Tinian, shonted with joy as their transport docked in San F ran cisco. Sixty-five of the returning heroes w ere casualties, sick or recov ering from battle wounds. They display captured Jap flags. M a r i n e C o m m a n d e r s Lieut. Gen. Holland M.

T r a i l o f N a z i A r m y L o o k in g a t Sydney G reenstreet A French farm er drives his cart along a road near Chambois w here a few days previously a G erm an transport column had been blast ed by the Royal Air force. I HE only trouble with being a fine actor in Hollywood is you’re worked to death. Sydney Green- street knows all about that. In less than three years here Sydney, who is m y idea of a really excellent ac tor, has m ade 12 pictures. A Sydney G reenstreet part comes close to being the kernel of any pic ture in which he appears. That’s the way it turned out in “The M altese Falcon,” his first. Au diences didn’t know his nam e, but answ ers to nearly all the sneak pre view cards ask ing, “Who gave the best perform ance?” read: “The fat m an.” That was Sydney, who weighs in at 280 pounds on the hoof. W arners, where Sydney checks in, knew right then that they had something. Tak ing advantage of his leave of absence from the Lunt- Fontanne production of “There Shall Be No Night,” W arners rushed him into his second, “They Died With Their Boots On,” in which he scored again. When the Lunts wound up their road tour G reenstreet signed a> studio contract. N o t a N o vice Sydney, who is 64, has been act ing 44 years. His stage record reads like a Who’s Who of the Theater, and in fact he has to refer to that m usty tome him self in order to re call all that he has done. The world has been Sydney’s oys ter. There’s hardly a spot on the globe he doesn’t know—Canada, the Am ericas, the British Isles, India, Ceylon, Italy, France, M alta, and North Africa—all these he toured not once but m any tim es. Sydney G reenstreet, who was bom in Sandwich, Kent, England, Decem ber 27, 1879, is all through traveling. He likes our town and has settled down for good on a high m ountain overlooking the town. He greeted me there recently among priceless objets d’art. “ You see, Hedda, I am comfort able at last—I’ve done with my traveling. I’m 64, and I think there is tremendous scope for fine work here. “ The m ost im portant thing with m e in pictures is to keep from being typed. I started as an arch-villain in ‘The M altese Falcon,’ and feared for a while that I’d stay a big bad man. F rom G ood to W o rse “Luckily, and I intend to keep it that way, I haven’t. My characteri zation was changed in ‘They Died With Their Boots On,’ when I played General Scott. I was a heavy again in ‘Across the Pacific,’ and a sort of benevolent m ystery m an in ‘Casa blanca.’ “F or ‘Background to D anger’ I reverted to evil again as head of the Nazi Gestapo, but in ‘Conflict’ I am a psychiatrist who sends Mur derer Hum phrey Bogart to his exe cution. “ ‘Devotion’ has m e cast as Wil liam M akepeace Thackeray, a per fectly lovely gentlem an, but in ‘The M ask of D im itrios’ I again switch to a m an of m ystery and dark doings. S till L ea rn in g "The movies are new to m e,” he says, “but I think I am catching on. The first tim e I saw m yself I was em barrassed. I got the shock of my life. I wanted to die. I knew I was pretty bad, but there I was on the screen—a horror. The lens is the actor’s best critic—it shows the mind working. It shows feelings. You can get wonderful cooperation out of the lens if you are true, but God help you if you play it false.” G reenstreet has w hat I call a background. While still a young ster he drifted into am ateur theatri cals until, encouraged by his moth er, he joined the Ben Greet Players and m ade his debut in “Sherlock Holmes” in 1902. In 1904 he cam e to Am erica, join ing forces with Sir H erbert Tree and M argaret Anglin. For seven years he played with the Lunts in “The Tam ing of the Shrew,” “Idiot’s De light,” “Amphytrion 38,” “The Sea Gull,” and “There Shall Be No Night.” Then W arners caught him. If G reenstreet has any criticism of Hollywood actors—and he is very loath to criticize any one—it is that they don’t work hard enough. “Maybe I can’t help it,” he says. “Maybe it’s old fashioned on m y part, but I have to be letter per fect in m y lines before setting foot on a stage. I w as brought up that w ay.” W a r B ro a d en s N ive n I L atest report from the unofficial w ar correspondent, David Niven, who forgot to m ention that he had just been m ade a colonel—and who, when he com es back to the films, should w rite as well as act: “ Sorry I haven't been exactly swamping you with letters, but as you can im agine, w hat with one thing and an other, we in the arm y have lately I been quite busy! . . . I have seen m any of your friends since I last I wrote.” CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT HELP WANTED • Persons now engaged in essemfal industry w ill not apply without statement oi availability from their local United States Employment Service.

RELEASE THE STORT THUS FAR: ZorIe Corey, a timid girl, is expected by her employ er's wife to deliver in person some thirty invitations to tea, of a rainy evening. She picks np the invitations and starts oat, bid* discouraged, leans against a tele* phone pole and cries. A handsome stranger cornea along, learns her story, grabs the invitations from .her and tears them up. Zorie meets her fiance's uncle, Admiral Duncan, who practically forces her to accept a job to edit his memoirs. Zorte's Aunt Hannah protests, but Ad* miral Duncan wins* The handsome stranger picks up her suitcases and brings them to the steamer, "Samoa.** On board, Miss Amber Lannlng Haimf occupancy to the same stateroom. CHAPTER V Zorie closed her eyes, because they w ere suddenly filled with tears. These tears were, as usual, tears of fury directed a t her m eekness. She leaned back against the pillows. She intended to take a shower in a mo m ent and dress in the bathroom. She fell asleep. The ringing of the telephone awoke her. She opened her eyes and looked about the state room with dism ay. It was empty! Miss Lanning had finished dressing and was gone! Zorie glanced at her wristwatch. It was 7:21! She answered the phone. It was Paul again. His tones w ere the icy reserved tones of a m an who is fu rious but who, because others are present, is controlling himself. “Zorie, what’s become of you? We’re all ready to sta rt dinner." “I’ll explain everything,” Zorie an swered trem ulously. “I won’t be a jiffy.” After she had taken her shower, and was looking for a bath towel, she learned why. There had been four hand towels and four bath tow els. Miss Lanning had used them alL They were strewn over the bath room floor. A hot wave of anger went over Zorie, and for a m om ent she stood, dripping, with her fists and her teeth clenched. At that m oment, she hat ed the slim, beautiful, arrogant Miss Lanning. She opened her trunk, having to look through her bag for the key, and found three hand towels she had intended embroidering for Aunt Hannah’s birthday. They were m ere wisps of towels. She could not dry herself at all thoroughly. “Some day,” Zorie announced, “I’m going to be like that. I’m go ing to be arrogant and ruthless and —and brutal.” She dressed with haste. She had little tim e to give her hair. She slipped into the navy-blue dress, zipped it up and stepped back and considered herself in the m irrors. She opened the door. A m an was standing in the corridor a dozen feet away with an unlighted cigarette in his mouth. He was flicking the wheel of a lighter. He held the flame to the cigarette, but his eyes were on Zorie and they rem ained on her as she shut the door and started along the corridor toward him. He was a short m an in a dark gray suit, with wide sloping shoul ders and scrubby-looking dark red hair. Slanting eye-sockets gave his dark eyes a cynical expression. As she passed him , his eyes nar rowed, and they were as bright, as alert, as the eyes of a ferret. He m ade her feel uneasy. She found an elevator and went up to B Deck. As she entered the wide cross corridor, she saw a m an coming down the stairs from the deck above. She noticed him only because he looked so sm art and at ease in his white dinner jacket and black trousers. His shiny black hair was graying at the temples, and he looked distinguished and im portant. Also, he seemed foreign and inter estingly dissipated. He was the kind of m an about whom you m ight say that the skin under his eyes was the graveyard of his follies. As Zorie’s glance becam e a stare, and her heart suddenly pounded, he noticed her. He stared, then smiled with one corner of his mouth. His lids cam e down a little and he now looked as a blase m an m ight look when he scents prey. He said in a cultured, purposeful voice, “ Good evening!” and paused. Zorie stared at him a moment longer with bright fascinated eyes, then started down a corridor alm ost at a run. Men with dark faces and little white scars under their left eyes were, she supposed, not unusual, yet she was sure, she was positive, that this black-haired, dark-skinned m an with the little star-shaped scar un der his left eye was the m an she had seen in the green sedan when Steve Duncan had hid behind the telephone pole—and her. Paul opened the door to her knock. She walked into the room with her heart still pounding. Steve and the adm iral were at the other end of the room, which was fully twice as large as the room she and Amber Lanning were sharing. Beyond was another large room. The three m en wore white or pale- colored evening jackets and black trousers. She glanced at Paul, tall and straight and splendid-looking, with the expression in his eyes she had been prepared for. “I’m sorry I’m late,” she said meekly. “Being late,” the adm iral said, “Is a beautiful woman’s privilege.” With his curly white hair, his fur rowed red face and hie lean erect ness, he looked distinguished. Some thing happened in his china-blue eyes as he took her in—an almost im perceptible tightening. His ex pression did not seem to change, yet he betrayed, as his eyes quickly ran down her, surprise and disappoint m ent. She glanced quickly at Steve. He looked very brown and huge and handsome in a beige dinner jacket with a blue bow tie and a blue silk carnation the shade of his eyes. She wondered if he knew that the m an she had just seen was aboard. He was looking at her as if he was delighted with her. It mystified Zorie. The adm iral had betrayed disappointment in her appearance, and she had not been surprised. Steve was gazing at her with un m istakable admiration. Why? It seemed that whatever the basis was for their contacts, he was always mystifying her. He slowly grinned, turned and went into the other room. He re turned with a white flower in his hand. It looked a little like a gar- He took her lightly in his arm s and they started to dance. denia, but its white petals were more fragile. It had a spicy-sweet odor that was strange and exotic. “With the compliments of Admiral Duncan,” he said in his deep voice. “It’s an old island custom.” He put the flower in her hair. As he bent down and fixed the flower he said in a voice too low for the ad m iral and Paul to hear, “I’m proud of you, baby.” Zorie was m ore mystified than ever. No m an had ever before put a flower in her hair. Her cheeks were burning. She could not decide whether he was m aking fun of her, being sorry for her, because of her wrinkled dress, her lack of m akeup and Paul’s cool disapproval of her tardiness, or whether he was delib erately teasing Paul. .W hatever his motive was, she felt grateful. “Thank you,” she said, with warm th. “W hat is it?” “ White ginger.” He picked up a cocktail from a tray and handed it to her, but before she could accept it, Paul said curtly, “Zorie doesn’t drink, Steve.” It w asn't true. Although Paul dis approved of drinking, because of its demonstrably harm ful effect on brain tissue, both of them sometimes had a cocktail or two at faculty par ties. Paul was furious because she was late, and he was punishing her. Steve was sadly shaking his large curly head. “W hat a pity,” he drawled, and drank the cocktail. Zorie had never known such lux ury. Two w aiters, or stewards, served the dinner and their obvious awe of Admiral Duncan, who barked at them and criticized every dish, reminded her that he was not only a garrulous and meddlesome old m an but a very rich and powerful one. She was glad when dinner was over. Paul said, “Let’s go up and dance,” which surprised her. “I’d love to,” she answered, hoping that Steve would accompany them. His presence would postpone the inevita ble scolding, and she was deter m ined to question him. But Steve said carelessly, “I’ll see you in a few m inutes.” In the hall, Zorie waited for Paul to begin. When he didn’t, she glanced up at him. His profile was m ore thoughtful than stem . He asked her how she thought she would like working for the adm iral, and she answered cautiously, “All right.” Then he glanced at her and said, “W hat do you think of that beautiful big brother of mine now?” . “That was a nice gesture,” Zorie answered, “his putting this ginger flower in my hair.” “ Yes,” Paul said. “Steve is very good at gestures. Most women fall for him like a ton of bricks. He’s that utterly irresistible combination —a handsome rascal with the tender consideraffeness of a Raleigh.” Zorie wondered if Paul was jeal ous of Steve. “I’m not falling for him ,” she said. “No?” He laughed softly, but with no humor. “Well, you wouldn’t be the first of m y girls he’s tried to steal.” “Did he,” Zorie asked demurely, “have m uch luck with the others?” “He’s always had a very smooth line,” Paul replied. “Watch out for it.” “I shall,” Zorie promised. They started to dance. Paul danced well but without m uch en thusiasm . He didn’t dance often enough to keep & practice, and if you aren’t in practice, you bump into people. Paul kept bumping into people and apologizing. He becam e annoyed. The slight rolling of the ship kept sending him off balance, and that annoyed him , too. The ship rolled m ore sharply than usual. Paul and Zorie went sliding to the end of the floor with a m ass of other dancers who seem ed to think it was fun. Paul did not. “To hell with it,” he said crossly. “Let’s take a turn on deck.” “All right,” Zorie agreed. Just then Steve’s deep, lazy voice said, “Is it against m aritim e law to cut in?” He was grinning at Paul. “Try it!” Paul said curtly. “I’m not the shark god’s type.” He walked away. Steve had his hand lightly under Zorie’s elbow, balancing her as^the ship m ade another deep roll, “Do you m ind?” “No,” said Zorie. “Paul doesn’t like to dance.” His blue eyes were adm iring her, “You do.” “ Yes. I love it.” She felt reb el lious and reckless. “So do I,” Steve drawled. He took her lightly in his arm s and they started to dance. Steve was evidently experienced at dancing not only in crowds but on rolling ships, because they bumped into no one and when the ship rolled he seem ed to know how to dance with the roll, so that their rhythm wasn’t broken and she lost the fear she had had with Paul that hui ACCtl were about to shoot out from under her. Steve danced smoothly and he led firmly. He was so easy to dance with that Zorie felt herself relaxing. She looked about for P aul and saw him go out on deck. “Are you the shark god’s type?” she asked. “I’m the shark god’s adopted child,” Steve answered. “When I was a kid, on Kauai, I did a lot of surfing in dangerous w ater. An old Hawaiian fam ily took a fancy to m e and their god happened to be the shark god, so they put m e through the ritual. They wanted to protect m e against all dangers in or on the sea.” “It sounds pagan,” Zorie m ur m ured. It also sounded character istic of Steve. “It is,” said Steve. She laughed. “Are you pagan?” He grinned lazily down a t her. “Incurably.” She wondered why he wanted to dance with her—why he was bother ing with her. There were m any pret ty girls on the floor, and every time Zorie glanced at one of them , she was staring at Steve. He could have been dancing with any of them , yet he seemed oblivious to them . Why? “Why did you put this flower in my hair?” “ Because I was delighted with you for taking m y advice. I happened to be in the room when Paul phoned you. I thought he was being pretty stuffy. The longer you kept us w ait ing, the m ore I adm ired you.” So that was it! He thought her tardiness was due to her having de cided to show Paul that she couldn’t be ordered around! “Do you know,” Steve asked, “ that you’ve m ade m y grandfather as happy as a kid with a new red engine?” “Why?” “He likes to have a pretty girl around,” Steve answered, “and he’s sure you’re going to do wonders with his book. You’ve got to be tough with him. If he takes a wrong slant, don’t hesitate to back him down. You’re clever. You can. Do you m ind if I sit in on some of these sessions?” “Won’t it be dull for you?” Zorie asked. “No. I’m interested in the book. Nobody’s ever w ritten up the family and I’d like to see it dene right. It’s really the story of Hawaii as illus trated by one amazing family. You’re going to fall in love with Uluwehi. Has Paul told you m uch about it?” “No.” Steve was still holding her lightly, and dancing smoothly, and paying attention to no one on the floor but her. Zorie felt reckless and gay. Steve was flirting with her. He was m anaging to say nice things to her without m aking love to her. Her feelings about him were so contra dictory that she felt confused. She realized that his charm , his w arm personality were dangerous weapons that he used with deliber ateness. She was not often suspi cious of people, but she could not help being suspicious of this tall, deep-voiced young m an with his graceful ways. There was simply no reason for him to be wasting his tim e on her. (TO BE CONTINUED) IM P R O V E D --------------j U N IF O R M IN T E R N A T IO N A L S UNDAY ICHOOL Lesson By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST.

JESUS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD LESSON TEXT—John 9:1-7, 13. 34-41.GOLDEN TEXT-I am the Ught of the world: he that foUoweth me shall not walk In the darkness, but shall have the Ught of lile. —John 8:12. Light is a fascinating subject for study, and especially is that true' when we speak of spiritual light.- In the lessons of the next three months we are to see the light which Christ sheds on the problems of life today. How appropriate to begin that atudy by recognizing Christ as the one true “light of the world.” He it is who brought us out of darkness, and it is from His light that we too are lighted and become God’s lights in this wicked world (M att. 5:14-16). The story which presents our Lord as the light and the light giver is that of the m an born blind. Four choices confront us. I. Guesswork or God’s Glory (w . 1-5). Men have an inordinate curiosity about those who are handicapped or crippled. Even the disciples of Je sus had fallen into the sad tendency of seeing in one who needed their help, a case for theological specula tion rather than one in whom God’s glory could be revealed. Need without power to help is a depressing thing, and m ay encour age m an to a bit of scientific or re ligious guesswork. Here is a speci m en—let us examine it. How did this happen? Who was responsible? But when we know the power of God, guessing and theorizing is gone. Here is help! Jesus declared a great truth here —suffering is not necessarily the re sult of sin, nor for the purpose of. judgm ent or punishment. This m an was here that God m ight show His grace and power. Those who suffer in our day m ay be the m eans of declaring God’s glory, either by His deliverance from pain and sorrow, or by His grace to bear the burden graciously and for His glory. H. Impossibility or Obedience (w . 6-7). 1 “ Clay cannot bring sight to a m an’s eyes—anyone knows that! All such a covering can do is to m ake the darkness of sightless eyes even m ore im penetrable.” The blind m an m ight have reasoned that way. He would have been entirely logical in so doing—and he would have gone right on being blind. It is possible to thrust from you God’s richest blessing by insisting that God’s work be done in accord with your ability to understand. But the blind m an chose the obe-. dience of faith—“he went . . . and washed, and came seeing.” Jesus is the light of the world to those who will believe. The blind m an found it so—we m ay also find it to be true, if we will believe. Tke impossible be-, comes possible—with God, for “with God all things are possible.’! Jesus said it (M att. 19:26); let us believe it and act on it. III. Controversy or Confession iw .. 13, 34-38). This is a great chapter, one In which we see the glory of faith con trasted with the controversial small ness of unbelieving men. The Phar isees were religious men, but they hated Jesus (a combination possible even in our day), so they sought in every possible way to discredit Him, to deny the m iracle, and to destroy the one who was healed. Against that dark background tne light of this m an’s faith shines the m ore brightly. The m ote they tried to confuse him, the deeper they en trapped them selves, as he answered in simple faith. Testimony is a tremendously ef fective thing, even though it m ust cling to the elem entary and blessed truth “I was blind, now I see” (v. 25). But note that he went on, and under the tender m inistry of Jesus, he received his spiritual, as well as his physical, sight. “I believe”— what m ajestic words, what trans forming words, what world-shaking words! Friend, do you believe on Christ? If not, will you do it right now? IV. Healing or Hardening (w . 39- 41). The sam e sun which softens the wax hardens the mud. The light which attracts some out of the dark places causes others to shrink far ther into the shadows lest they have to give up their dark deeds and thoughts. So it was in this case. The blind m an who had faith, saw, and that sight was the sight of the soul as well as of the body. But the em bittered Pharisees were only hard ened in their sin. Because they boasted of their spiritual sight which m ade the m inistry of Jesus unneces sary (as they thought!), there was nothing for Him to do but to leave them in their darkness. The light of Christ, which is to shine on the problem s of life in the lessons of the three months ahead of us, will either bring m en to the light in faith, or confirm them in their unbelief. Which is it to be in your case and in that of those to whom you minister?. A fter grating cheese, rub a potato over the grater to clean it.

"F or the past two years we have been in one of these crises, perhaps the greatest in our his tory. On the battlefield and on the home front m en and women are daily making great sacrifices so the freedom in our way of life m ay be preserved. “There is now in progress the 5th W ar Loan Drive to raise money so as to insure that this conflict will be brought to the speediest possible conclusion and X ^ S 'with the least loss in lives. The complete success in the drive will m eet the acclaim of the forces in the field and will be renewed proof that all Americans are one solid phalanx of determ ination in this great war. “All of us profoundly trust that soon Oie world m ay be restored to a just peace. Until we can, with God’s help, bring about that hap py realization of our dream s, each of us m ust seek incessantly for ways and m eans by which the value of our services to our coun try m ay be enhanced. Right now we can do so by buying Bonds.
