So far as we know this war— World W ar No. Two—is the great, est of all history. It is fearful to contemplate. OnlvGodknow stHe destruction of life, the devastation of property, tbe expense in money and the damnation 0 ) souls that it is costing the human family. W hy all this? Tbe answer is simple. Men and nations have turned away from the Bible to such an extent, and turned awav from God, and from the church, and from Holy Ghost salvation, and turned unto all kinds of sin and wickedness un til God is letting this all happen as punishment to the nations. When men and nations drift away from God so far, and deliberately refuse to heed the Bible and Its teachings and warnings, and refuse to hear the God-called, God-sent preachers of the Gospel, turning a deaf ear to what Is said to warn them, what is done to check them, and what is done to save them, then there is nothing else to expect but suffer, ing, misery, heartache, anguish, war. famine, pestilence, death and damnation until men and nations turn to God and deepla repent. It has been so in the past; it is so now Men and nations positively destroy themselves by their sins. Iniquities and wickedness. Look at the history of Israel for an ex­ ample. Read anciant and modern history. This shows us plainly what happens. Listen to the words of H osea; "O Israel, thou bast destroyed thyself; but in me is thy help." If men and nations destroy­ ed themselves in olden times by turning away from God and going into all kinds of wickedness, why is not tbe same true today? Have vou not seen with your own e es men and women, boys and girls who destroyed themselves by their bad habits, by their sinfui indul­ gences, by tbeir disobedience to/pa­ rents and to God? Certainly. And what ts true of the individual is true of tbe nation and nations. An individual wrecks himself physi­ cally, morallv, financially and spi­ ritually by wickedness, and so does a nation. T*>e only difference is that the destruction of a nation due to wickedness is ou a larger scale It is all the same principal. It is all due to disobedience to God and yielding unto the devil and the powers ot hell and darkness. We know this is a positive fact that cannot be denied. We blame the World W ar on Germany, and maybe she is more to blfime than anv other nation, but every nation that is involved in the war is also to blame. AU na­ tions today are tremendously wick­ ed. They have become ungodly, disobedient, atheistic, modernistic, drunken, adultrous; proud, haugh­ ty, worldlv, vain, pleasure.lovlng, selfish, robbing G j^ of what justly belongs to Him and His cause, and as a consequence hatred, envy, tna. lace, desire for power, for property, for more territory, etc., springs ud in the hearts of men and nations, then fighting, killing, shedding blood, wounding and slaying fol­ lows as a dreadful ard horrible re» suit. When men and nations turn from God, then they fight.- Yes, they fight, regardless of how well they are educated and how much en­ lightenment they have. In fact the better they aie educated and the more, they are enlightened, when thev turn fiom God and turn unto wickedness, the more danger­ ous treacherous, vindictive and de­ structive they are. They turn Iheir knowledge into a channel of de­ structiveness. -T his is a positive fact. Germany was once the most highly educated, enlightened na­ tion on earth, but she turned unto atheism, modernism, worldliness and wickedness, and as a result be­ came the most dangerous nation on earth. Other nations have done, and are doing, the same- thing, A- merica included. Men can’t sa themselves. Only God can, and when He is rejected, then the devil takes charge of the minds, Intel lects, knowledge, hearts and souls of men, and they use tbeir knowl­ edge, inventiohs, discoveries, pos­ sessions and wealth with which to make war upon each other. Wicked rulers rise up out of a mass of wickedness and go to the heads of nations to rule and lead tinto destruction and damnation. When a man comes forth as a wet politician, and declares himself as such, and runs on a wet ticket as leader of a nation, and the masses vote to put him there, what can that nation expect but heartache, misery and woe? When a nation becomes dtunken, then crime up- on top of crime follows, then anger demoralization and degradation and horrible war. Many people are praying for tbis cursed war to close and we would like to see tbis come to pass soon, but if it should close with the present flood of liquor turned loose, the cursed theatre5 running at full speed, the present nngodliness and wickedness of wo­ men cursing the land, the pride and greed that still fills the hearts, minds and souls of the people, with the adultry that is damning tbe masses, and lots of kinds of wick­ edness beside what we have men tioned, no doubt this nation, and perhaps other nations, would be­ come more wicked than ever. It is good and right to pray for our dear soldiers, and we must, but we need to pray for men and nations to repent before Almighty God and be saved. Here are tbe conditions upon which God will speedily has­ ten this war to a close: "IF MY PEOPLE, WHICH ARE CAlLffi BV MY NAME, SHALL HUMBLE THEMSB.VB, AM) PRAY, AND SfflC MV FACE AND IUItH AWAY FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS; IHBI WILL I HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AHD WIU FORGIVE IHEIR SINS, AND WILL HEAL THEIR LAND."— 2 CHRON. 7:14. Ifs Not Fair It does no good to rave over tbe action of the House ot Representa­ tives in voting Congressmen an ex< pense fund of $2,500 each, tax exexpt, but the bovs ougbt to be a Httle ashamed of themselves. They ask everyone to hold the in­ flation line and then break right through it. And they should be thoroughly ashamed of the tax exempt provi. soin. Who else in tbe United States is income tax-exempt? The Repre sentatives shouldn't have done it and those who voted against it are due high praise. They froze other people’s in­ comes. An for them to call tbis expense money is a subterfuge. It’s income no matter bow one looks at it And the complaint that living bas gone up in cost doesn’t bold for them any more than for others It went up for all ot us at the same 'time. Besides, they weren’t drafted for tbe job. They asked for it. They, went after it willingly and enthu siastically, voluntarily and whole­ heartedly. 'They knew what the pay was when th e y asked for tbe work and there was never a murmur from them that they meant to get $3,500 extra in expense money. Nobody asked them to take tbe job. 'It doesn't look nice. It isn’t fair. Tbe Representative should recon­ sider this. If they think $10,000 a year isn’t enough they should re* sign a get ether work—along, with tbe millions who manage somehow 0 » less lhan that, froze on tbeir jobs and with frozen pay, and with not a red cent extra for expenses.— Charlotte Observer. Attention Boys Girls Most of tbe Seniors and many undergraduates will work this sum­ mer. If your job is with a busi ness concern or with an industry, you must get a social security card. That is easy to do and costs you nothing. Go to the reatest office of the Social Security Board and ask for a social security card. But do not apply for an account 'num­ ber card until you have the pro tnise of a job. W hy do you need a social securi­ ty account number? Because you want credit for every dollar you earn in jobs that come under the law. Some day you or your fami ly' will claim payment of social in­ surance; and those payments will depend upon Ihe wage records that is kept for you by the Social Se­ curity Board. A separate account is kept for each worker whose name appears on the books of the Social Security Board. The worker’s name and his account num ber—which is ex­ actly the same as that shown on his Social Security card—are written at the top of his ledger sheet and on all of his records. When your employer sends to the Government his quarterly tax return, his report should include your name and acount number. That is why you must show him your social security card. Given below are five points that you should remember. W rite them down. 1 Get a card if you need one. 2 Do not get a card unless yon plan to work. 3 Take care of your card iii you get one. 4 Ask yonr employer to copy down your name and account num­ ber, on his books. 5 If you lose your card, get a duplicate. Don’t ever get a card with alvgifferent number. Use one numbferalf.your life. “PRAY FOR ME m In honor of our President, Harry Truman.

A Gear Choice The warning by W ar Mobiliza­ tion Director Vinson that the Unit­ ed states must stay in full war har. ness until Tapan is beaten came on the same day as. an announcement by the Tokyo radio that the Ger man surrender will have no effect whatever on the Japanese war pro­ gram. These two news developments must be taken at their full value and in relations to each other. The road to Tokyo, as Mr. Viu son points out, will be long, hard, and bloody. Anv -temptation to relax, now that Germany is out, he cautions us, wilt merely prolong tbe struggle In tbe Pacific; nence, tbe harder we work at tbe war now, the sooner the affair in the Pacific will be over. Only such reconversion as will not interfere with the Pacifiif war can be countenanced at tbis time. For Japan bas never considered herself merely an appendage to the Rome-Berlin Axis. Throughout her association with tbe European dictatars, sbe has acted with com­ pleted independance and frequent­ ly without even considering Hitler or his wishes. Japan has played her own game in the Orient from tbe very begin, ning and bas given only lip service to tbe Berlin dictator. Japan, we must remember, was in the conquest business on a large scale when Hitler was still a small, time politician talking world poli­ tics with other crackpots in Munich beer balls Before Hitler marched into the Rhineland, Iapan bad already con qnered a territory with a popula tion of more than 200 ,0 00 .000 , and with an area greater than all of H it­ ler's European aggrandizements with the exception of Russia In the six months after Pearl Harbor, Japan added another 100 ,- 000,000 people to her subject races and extended her empire from the Artic Circle to the Traplc of Capri com. Japan still holds nine-tentbs of that empire and has no intention of giving it up. Todav, alter Hitler’s conquests have been reduced to nothing and tbeG erm an nation to ruins, Japan keeps a tight grip on territory with a greater area, & larger population, and vastly: more, natural resources than all of'the countries controlled by the Germans at tbe height of their power.

Is Prosperity Coming After This War? There seems to . be a growinpr opinion in the country that after the war is over we will have the great­ est business boom in our history. The belief is based on tbe fact tbat tiiere is a heavy damned-up demand for peace-time goods, one which will take our manufacturers five years to satisfy, and veritable oceans of sav­ ings in tbe hands of the consumers. Tbis sounds reasonable but is tem ­ pered bv a few facts. One is that a percentage of these savings is in the hands of the thrifty who can be counted on to go off the deep end when it comes to spending their money, although of coarse they will buy a lot of things. Another is that the war will not end suddenly as was the case in 1918. which means that tbe production of arnment will taper off gradually and tbe reconversion of peace-time manufacture will come gradually A third is that unless we are careful inflation may get out of band. Nevertheless, unless all signs fail, we will have good business for sev­ eral years after the war. Pessimists, however, point out that it is gener­ ally the unexpected thathappehs and long-term predictions have a habit of going awry. Therefore, they say. we expect prosperity beyond any­ thing which happened before, and prepare for it, we may be disap­ pointed. The average man, if he is wise, will take a sound and sensible view of the situation. He will not rush out to buy everything he needs, at one time, thereby helping to bring no reunions inflation, but will satis |fy his wants gradually with an eye conquests, can we expect to reduce _____ these vast Japanese holdings in a summer with half measures? Our choice is clear. We can re- relax our energies and let the Pari, fic war drag on for interminable weary years, or we can keep our war machine working at peak effi ciency and get it over with before it becomes a drudgery that we shall be willing to stop at any price.

C. ■7-0T- •- <- -. .Backing the Attack on 'Okinawa Island Washington, D, C. STRATEGY AGAINST JAPAN Back in 1937-38, Adm. William Leahy, . now chief of staff to the White House, devised a strategy against Japan, which, if put into ef­ fect, might have prevented Pearl Harbor and even World War II. Today, the old Leahy strategy is being dusted off, especially on Capi­ tol Hill, as the best means of finish­ ing the war with Japan. It would save thousands of American lives,; its proponents claim, and would; serve as an example of how wars can be won—or prevented—by naval blockade. The proposals made by Ad­ miral Leahy constitute one of the most important and unwrit­ ten chapters in the history of what happened shortly before the war began. Leahy, then chief of naval operations and one of the best strategists the navy has seen in years, saw all too clearly what was coming both in Europe and Asia. At that time, 1937, Japan had just begun her full-scale invasion of China, and it was Leahy’s idea to make an example of Nippon which would show Hitler and Mussolini — then feeling their oats — that the United States meant business and would stand four-square behind the peace machinery of the world. Therefore, he proposed to Roose­ velt a naval blockade of Japan m cooperation with the British fleet, using the peace machinery of the League of Nations and the nme- power pact which guarantees the sovereignty of China. Leahy argued that by keeping the U. S. Navy in the Philippmes and the British fleet at Singapore, we could cut off all oil, scrap iron, copper, cotton and other war ma­ terials from Japan. Without these, he argued, the Japanese war ma­ chine would be powerless and would fold up in six months. Leahy fig­ ured that the United States would lose its gunboats on the Yangtze river, but that aside from this the main U. S. fleet would not have to fire a single shot. British Start Blockade. - President Roosevelt agreed. So, did the British. And in the late sum­ mer of 1937, the British actually de­ tailed 6 battleships, 12 cruisers and 20 destroyers to leave British home waters for Singapore. Just at that moment, however, the axis capi­ tals apparently got wind of what was happening, and Mussolini started his unofficial submarine campaign off the coast of Spain which detained the British fleet at Gibraltar. The Panay Incident. At any rate, the plan to blockade Japan, following the failure of the Brussels conference , in October, 1937, was dropped. But Admiral Leahy revived it again a year later, when, in December, 1938, the Japs sank the U. S. Gunboat Panay and the British Gunboat Ladybird. , Leahy recognized this for what ■it was, a deliberate attempt by the Jap war lords to test out how much insult the United States would take, and to make Britain and the USA lose face with the Chinese. Ac­ cordingly he rushed to the state department . and all one Sunday afternoon, December 13, 1938, one day after the sinking of the Panay, he urged Cordell Hull to seize this psychological moment to put the blockade of Japan into effect. The British were also willing to cooperate. And, Leahy pointed out, in another year, war, inevitably breaking out in Europe, would tie up the British fleet and they could not possibly help us in the Pacific. Russia, he also pointed out, had 60 submarines at Vladivostok, ready to help us cut off all scrap iron, all oil, all cotton and copper from Japan. Without these, he argued, the Japanese war machine would be paralyzed. Pacing the floor of HulTs office with Leahy was Hugh Wilson, ex­ ambassador to Germany and one of the state department’s foremost ap- peasers. He opposed Leahy at ev­ ery turn, finally convinced cautious; Cordell Hull that Leahy was too vig­ orous, that it was best to appease Japan. Less than one year later, Hitler had invaded Poland, the British fleet was desperately needed to defend British home waters, and the fat was in the fire. From that point on there was no possible way the United States could blockade Japan —though many people have never understood why we went to the op­ posite extreme and increased our shipments of oil and scrap iron to Japan so that she laid in tremendous reserves before Pearl Harbor. Japan Can Be Starved. But beginning with V-E Day, the possibility of blockading Japan for the first time since 1939 was com­ pletely reversed. Since V-E Day, the British fleet is entirely free to oper­ ate in the Pacific. So are Russian submarines. So is .the whole might of the U. S. Navy, now no longer needed to watch for submarines in the Caribbean or the Atlantic. Today it is possible to throw up such a naval blockade around the main Jap islands, augmented by air patrols, that hardly a ton of raw materials could reach Jap factories. The problem of unloading vital supplies for the American invaders who have been fighting their way inland, yard by yard, on the 70-mile-long Okinawa island, has been a big one.

SHEAD WNV Staff Correspondent Those A bsentee L aw m akers Walter Shead W W ff W asM arfOB B ureau 621 U nion T ru st B uilding I f YOU had been with me on a recent visit at the Capitol build-| ing, you would have noted several significant circumstances which would have given you cause to won­ der.As a matter of fact this particular day was a routine day at the capi- tol. Most legislative days are routine, nnthing spectacular but when visitors from over the na­ tion become dis­ turbed over an un­ spectacular day in the national legisla­ tive halls, folks out in the country and the small towns of this land of ours may well shake a speculative head. On this day you would have watched from the galleries in the house of representatives as the members voted themselves a $2,500- a-year-tax-free salary increase un­ der the guise of an expense allow­ ance. Over on the senate side of the beautiful old building, you would have noted tier upon tier of emp­ ty seats and watched a half- dozen members of “the most august body in the world” fiddle around for more than an hour attempting to get a quorum of its membership into their seats so business could go oh. And if you had stepped with me into a senate subcommittee hearing you would have blushed with shame at the spectacle. For there you would have watched a witness be­ fore this subcommittee heckled, taunted and derided . . . assailed With sarcasm, his motives impugned, bullied, even as a trial lawyer seeks to confuse and befuddle a defend­ ant in a court, of law. You would have wondered, “with what crime is this man charged?” . . . “can things like this happen here in the capital of the world’s greatest de­ mocracy?” For that witness was not there of his own accord . . . he was subpenaed . . . he was a busi­ ness man from a small town and he came to his capital at the instance of the senate subcommittee to give of his knowledge of the matter. Not all senate or house commit­ tees are like that, of course. But many are, even though they are sup­ posed to be fact-finding hearings pertaining to some measure up for consideration . . . to ratification' of some presidential nomination. Many committee hearings, say a full-press hearing of the senate agricultural committee, are conducted in a dig­ nified atmosphere of democracy. Then you would have remembered that the government is doing every­ thing in its power to “hold-the-line” agamst inflation and to prevent wage increases and higher prices for all our citizens and yet these congress­ men, our lawmakers, voted to in­ crease their own pay, tax free. And you would have heard one congress­ man say that his taxes and ex­ penses took all but $3,000 of his salary . . . and another one say that “we voted those taxes ourselves, didn’i we, and we oughtn’t be grant­ ing ourselves any allowance or spe­ cial privilege to take care of our taxes.” And you would have left the house chamber with wonderment on your face at this example. And in the senate your expecta­ tions were dashed, too. AU those empty seats. You expected some­ thing different here, but you were disheartened as the monotonous roU caU went on and only a few an­ swered and finally as time passed . . . 53 senators answered roU call, 4 more than the legal quorum of the 96 members. Of course some senators are necessarily absent for committee hearings and other legiti­ mate reasons, but the majority are in the cloak rooms, their offices, or elsewhere. Some come running when the signal beUs announce lack of a quorum, and remain long enough to vote, then dash out again. Others pay Uttle attention to the signals ex­ cept upon repeated rings. This sig­ nal system is so arranged that upon pressing a button, the beUs ring in the corridors and cloak rooms, com­ mittee rooms, the senate dining room and in each senator’s office in the senate office buUding a long block away. They, could be in their seats with­ in a few minutes if they answered the bells promptly but day-in and day-out hours are wasted merely getting enough senators in their seats to do business. Some newspaper men have figured out that time wasted in the senate alone in obtaining a quorum in one year, at the senate rate of pay, would almost pay the salary of two sena­ tors. These are routine and unspec­ tacular things you admit, the vot­ ing of salary increases totaling $1,640,000 annually in the house un­ der present-day circumstances, the IoUing attitude of the senate and the undemocratic procedure in the sub­ committee hearings, but stiU, you wonder if they are not misuses of power . .'. unrepresentative of their constituents. gooks—E n cy clo p ed ia of A m erican , E ng lish L aw on la w a n d p ro ced u re, on evidence, Zorous J u ris , A m erican b an k ru p . reports, aw vers* re p o rts (a n n o ta ted !.fed . re p o rter.

THE STORT THUS FA R : Melody Jones and George Fnry rode Into Payne* ville on a route to California. WbUe th ere M elody w as m istaken for the w ant­ ed Outlaw. M onte Jarrad . Cherry. Mon* te ’s girl friend, rushed them out to the farm , w here they m et Avery, h er broth­ e r. Inform ed a posse w as after them M elody and F n ty left tow ard the border. They returned and hid In the attic untU discovered by Avery. M elody stayed a t th e ranch th at night while F ury returned to PaynevUle. The next m orning Cherry hitched up the buckboard and asked them to follow h er along the road. Melody followed without learning the destina­ tion. They both knew her plans, how­ ever. CHAPTER VHI “I don't understand you,” Cherry -said, looking at him strangely. "Why are you just waiting here to be killed?. Any one Of the rocks you •can see from here, any bunch of greasewood, may have one of the Cotton boys, behind it, waiting to kill you. We might have been bush­ whacked on the road we just drove. What's the m atter with you? Are you trying to die?" “Huji-uh,” said Melody. He cocked his hat to one side, to block Ihe flat rays of the sun. “Then what in the name of heav­ en—” .............. “Well,” Melody said with reluc­ tance, “I’ll tell you, if you got to know., It’s because there’s a couple -of things I don’t understand about this here." Cherry de Longpre looked at him for a long time with blank eyes. “I never' saw anybody like you before,” she said at last. “But I’ll tell you why I brought you here.” She drove the mustang team, for­ w ard a little way, in among the ruins of die ranch. “This is called. Burnt Ranch now,” she told him. “But it used to be the Rowntree.” “I heard of them old pirates,” Mel­ ody said. “Then forget what you heard,” she told him shortly. “Back there behind that big chim­ ney arch, where the adobe still stands so thick—that used to be the fruit cellar,” Cherry went on, with such stubbornness that she seemed unperturbed. “Mrs. Rowntree was a great hand for canning stuff. If you hunted under that rubbish, you’d find the broken cans, with labels on ’em that Mrs. Rowntree wrote.” “Canning stuff is a fine thing,” Melody said. “Did you ever put up any cinnamon pears?” “What?” “Nothin’. Excuse me, ma’am, and go ahaid.” Cherry went ahead and told him what had happened, according to her. The Cottons, she said, came into the valley much later than the Rowntrees. Anybody would think that there was enough land around there for everybody, such as it was, but the Cottons didn’t feel that way. They set about driving the Rown­ trees out, and their methods were an .old story all over the West. They started with the handy use of run- nihg-irons, and the laming of horses, and sometimes a night stampede; and worked up to a full range-wreck­ ing war, with the killing of an oc­ casional cowboy in what is known as “a fair shoot-out” in some places, as. yet. Then finally-a kid cowboy came along, after the Rowntrees had lost about everything they had, and the Rowntrees gave him a job. Por a little while tilings seemed to change; that one cowboy almost reversed the whole course of the war. He had the Cottons so well backed up that it looked as if the Cottons, and not the Rowntrees, were going to be driven out of the valley. Cherry told all this earnestly, with slow-worded strength of effect. !‘The name of this cowboy,” Cher- ry'said at the end of it, “was Monte Jarrad.” .“I kind of thought," Melody said, “it was going to be him.” In spite of Monte Jarrad’s amaz­ ing rally, Cherry went on to say, the end of the war had been very bad. The Cottons swarmed down one night with more than forty men. Some of them made pretense that it whs an Apache raid, but they turned out to be Cottons when they were dead. They laid siege, intent upon wiping out the Rowntree once and for all, in a single night. Old New­ ton Rowntree and his wife had only a .!couple of cowboys there, besides Monte Jarrad, but they fought well, Irqlh behind the walls. t)ne of the cowboys was killed first. Then Newton Rowntree was hit; Cherry showed Melody the angle of -.'the wall where he went down. He: was shot in the throat, she said, and bled to death in his wife’s arms. Mrs. Rowntree took up his rifle then. Cherry pointed out the window ledge Where her head had laid as she died. Monte and an old cowboy called Da­ vy:. kept on fighting most of the night, until the fires were set “So that’s* why Monte Jarrad is ateoutlaw now,” she finished, snuf­ fling a little. “Old Man Cotton had got himself made sheriff the day -before the raid. So now every law in . the world is against Monte Jar­ rad, and always will be. And the southwest won’t be satisfied until he’s dead.” !‘You talk good,” Melody said with respect. “I’ve heard lies to trip a bull. I’ve heard lies that paid off bigger than a hundred 'dollars. But I never heard no such lies as that lie there.” Cherry turned white; she looked as if she were about to go up in smoke. "You dare use that word to me? You say I—lie—” “Uh-huh," Melody said. “I reckon you was thinking of Billy the Kid— he used to come up with them kind of monkeyshines all the whole time. How was you to know I always stop by and grub-test at the Rowntrees, whenever I winter in California?” “You—you do?” “They raise chickens now," he told her. "They was some of those folks that come out West to get rich. So, they got rich, and moved to California. Or at least,” Melody amended, “they moved. Old Man Cotton bought this whole spread for a hundred dollars and a buckboard team. “Let it go,” Cherry said in a dead voice. "I quit.” They sat silent, a certain awk­ wardness between them. “I’m hongry,” Melody said. “I’m sorfy,” Cherry said, without having heard him. She sounded as if she were going to cry. "I got my­ self into something, and I tried to talk my way out. That’s all." "So I seen,” Melody said. “My family’s known Monte Jar­ rad since he was so high,” Cherry said in the same dead voice. “He rode in hurt, and I tried to help him. That's all there was to the whole tiling.” “Did he get away okay?” Melody asked with interest. “They’re about to get him. He would have been safe—but you drew the posse back, by being mistaken "Yon say I—lie—” for him. So now he’s dry-gulohed and through. It wasn’t your fault. You didn’t mean to draw the posse in. But you did. I’ve been trying to make you- lead the posse away again. But you bucked me down." ‘You’d do just about anything for that belly-gunner, wouldn’t you,” Melody said, out of his dejection. Cherry snapped out of it; she Iow1- ered her voice. “I want you to know I’m sorry I hauled you into this. You’ve been pretty nice.about it, according to : your lights. And this is goodbye.” She put her arms about .his neck, pulled his head down, and kissed him. Melody made no move for. a moment. Then he awkwardly took off his hat, and took her in his arms. Well, goodbye,” he said; and kissed her again. ‘Listen,” she said, still in his arms. “I don’t want you to think I brought you here to ask you to help Monte.” ‘Well, goodbye,” Melody said" again, but this time she ducked. ‘I want you to know,” she whis­ pered desperately, “that I’m not asking you to help Monte. Nothing was farther from what I meant.” “Oh?” “Such a -tiling never entered my head.” Melody released her, slowly. “Then why,” he asked her, “have you got Monte’s saddle here in the buckboard, under that there blan­ ket?” Cherry gasped. 'T - I didn't know it was there,” she faltered. 'T d of thought,” Melody said, ‘you might of noticed it, while you was tying that sack of flour , to it, just before we left.” Cherry’s eyes dropped. "I don’t know why I lie to you,” she said after a pause. “Neither do I.” He swung down off the buckboard. “Hold them broom-tails a minute.” He went to the tail of the buck­ board, and unsaddled Harry Hen- shaw. Then he got Monte Jarrad’s great silver-mounted saddle from the buckboard where it was hidden, and swung it aboard Harry. Monte’s saddle weighed better than sixty pounds, and Harry Henshaw looked a little bit as though he were look­ ing out of a dog house. Somehow it also made Harry look pigeon-toed on both sides, instead of just the one. When Melody looked up from ty­ ing the latigo, Cherry was staring at him in utter dumbfoundment. “You’re—you’re going to do it?” “Whut? Change saddles? Oh, sure. Ain’t that whut you wanted me to do?” “Yes,” she admitted, in a very small voice. He saluted her with one gloved hand, and reined Harry Henshaw away. “I guess I got to be going, now.” “Wait!” Cherry called sharply; and he turned back. “That—that’s the wrong way! You can’t ride down that way! That’s toward Payne- ville!” “I know,” Melody said. "You see —I got to talk to a feller.” As soon as Melody was out of sight, Cherry turned and went whal­ ing back to the Busted Nose. She got there with her ratty team blow­ ing and lathering; and Monte Jarrad was at her buckboard wheel, even before she could jump down. “I’m glad you’re ready to ride,” she said before he spoke. “It’s time to be out of here, Monte. Avery, how in time did you get past me on the road?” The deceptive thing about Avery was that he made his long, sullen silences and his secretive eyes sug­ gest a singular wisdom; people al­ ways listened when he spoke, be­ cause it was seldom. Then they were let down by the triviality of the long-awaited remark. “Oh, I got ways,” he answered her. “There’s a couple of things you need to know,” she said, looking him directly in the eyes. “Neighbors used to mean a lot, back in Pike County. Because people were few and far between. And they hung onto each other, for better or worse. So we were there; so we broke a colt together, when we were eleven years old." "Named him Dusty,” Monte said. That made Cherry falter a little. “I didn’t reckon you’d remember.” “I remember, Cherry." “All right. All right, Monte. But you’ve got to know something. I wouldn’t risk one thread of that stranger boy’s shirt to pull you out of this!” He stared at her blankly through most of that, but on the last of it a kind of humor came into his eyes. “You done that already,” he said. “I didn’t,” she said breathily, as much to herself as to him. “I didn’t —I didn’t, and I won’t.” His stiff-cheeked smile pushed up the lower lids of his eyes. “It’ll be a long day, the day you ever quit m e," he said. She stared at him defiantly; but presently her eyes dropped. “I guess so, Monte.” “There’s only one thing you got to be sure to do,” he said clearly. “After they get him you got to go and identify him.” Sie shrugged that off, almost with contempt. “He can easy enough prove who he is!” Monte’s eyes snapped back to her face. “I reckon he isn’t going to prove touch, after he’s dead.” “They—they aren’t going to—” - “I should judge they’ll bring the body in. But if they don’t, you’ve still got to make sure they bury him as me.” Cherry was staring at him as if she couldn’t believe her ears. She managed a shaky flare-up. “Noth­ ing like this is going to happen! Even if they should catch him—” Monte chuckled, but it hurt his side, and he finished straight-faced. 'AU he better hope is that there’s a tree handy, so they don’t have to hang him by draggin’ him.” "I don’t believe you,” Cherry said again. He could hardly hear her this time. ‘This is the break in the luck,” Monte said; “and it’s you that done it, honey. I got plans for burnin’ this country to the ground, once I get in the clear!” Cherry sat perfectly still, as if she were hypnotized; she seemed to have lost any ability to move or speak. Monte started to bend in the sad­ dle; he meant to kiss her. But his wound stopped him as if he were caught with a fishhook. “I’m head­ in’ south for the border,” he told her; ‘TH send for you as soon as your job here is done.” He forced one more grin, then lifted his Teins and followed Avery, his pony at a running walk. • As he swung down in Payneville’s Court street, Melody Jones took one more look at the low sky beyond the town. A haze to the southwest might or might not be the dust of tile posse coming in. He could not tell how far away it was, but he judged that what time he had would be none too much. Melody crossed the boardwalk and went into the Last Chance bar, walk­ ing with such slow, light steps that the spur-irons hardly whispered at his heels. He had pulled the buck­ skin glove from his right hand and stuck it in his belt as he supposed Monte Jqrrad might do in walking into uncertainties. His knees were stiff as boards, but his face was as blank as could have been wished by Unsmiling Jones. His intent watch­ fulness had left it empty, except for the restless switch of his eyes.

THE MINISTRY OF JESUS LESSON TEXT—M ark 1:1«, IS; Luke 4: 16-21; M ark 8:27a, 29, 31. GOLDEN T E X T -I am com e th at they m ight have life, and th at they m ight have It m ore abundantly.—Jolm 10:10. The dawn of a new day had come! The long-promised and expected Messiah came to break the 400 years of silence by His personal presence. We learn of K s coming, His life and ministry, His death and resurrection, and find the prom­ ise of His coming again in the four Gospels. They are our complete les­ son for this Sunday, but we obvious­ ly cannot review them in their en­ tirety in our limited space. Otw Scripture references speak of His ministry in presenting the good news of the gospel to needy man­ kind. L The Good News Preached (Mark 1:14, 15). Jesus always honored preaching as the primary and the effective means of spreading the good news of tiie gospel. The forerunner, John the Baptist, had borne his witness. Jesus had come, had been baptized, and as John was cast into prison, He began to preach, "Repent ye and believe the gospel.” The key verse of Mark is 10:45: “For even the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister.” The characteristic words are “straightway,” "forth­ with,” and "immediately.” The Greek word thus translated ap­ pears about forty times in the book. The Servant of God went quickly about the Father’s business. Chris­ tians, can we say the same for our­ selves? II. The Good News Practiced .(Luke 4:16-21). ! The daily ministry of Jesus as He lived here on earth is summarized Iin the prophecy of His coming which was given by Isaiah the !prophet. As we read these words, we realize that we who profess to follow Him need to learn more of lHis spirit of tender and loving serv­ ice to others. It is significant and appropriate that Jesus’ declaration of Hhnself as the fulfillment of Isaiah 61:1, 2 was made in the synagogue on the Sabbath day. He met with the people In the house and at the time set apart for God’s worship. He opposed spiritual deadness, the misinterpre­ tation of the truth, the distortion of Teligious principles; but He was not, as some would have us believe, a religious free lance who despised the established worship of His peo­ ple. Havingbeenpreparedbythethirty years of privacy, and more particu­ larly by the baptism • and the temptation in the wilderness, He appeared at the synagogue in Naza­ reth to declare Himself as the ful­ fillment of prophecy. Those who teach that Jesus was only a young Jewish teacher with a hew philosophy of life have evident­ ly not read the Scriptures. He knew Himself to be God’s Son come into the world to bring the good news of salvation by His own blood to poor, sin-captive, blinded and bruised hu­ manity. He is the Saviour Look at Isaiah 61:1, 2 and note that Jesus stopped reading before the end of the sentence. “The day Cf vengeance of our God” will come when Christ returns. This is the day of grace. Sinners are urged to ac­ cept God’s love now, and thus to escape the terrible day of judgment which is to come. . III. The Good News Prepared (Mark 8:27a, 29, 31). Jesus preached the . gospel of the kingdom. He went about doing good, but always He knew. Himself to be the Christ, the One who was to die for the sins of the world and to arise again for the justificatioii of those who put their trust iii Rim. Even those who deny to our Christ the recognition of His deify and the devotion of life which is His just due, must, if they are at all intel­ ligent, admit that no man ever lived who has made such an impact on human history. Even now, un­ believing men speak of Him as the founder of Christianity, a mighty leader, a wonderful example, or an unequalled teacher. - It is not enough that we stand with the mass of humanity'who may thus admire Him, but who do not count Him as Saviour and Lord. The' ques­ tion comes to us as it did ; to tfye disciples, “Whom say ye that I am?” “Thou art the Christ”—this alone suffices as the foundation for Christian testimony and conduct. Although Jesus was not yet ready to have His Messiahtiiip pro­ claimed to the public, He was pre­ pared to teach His disciples concern­ ing not only that important truth, but: of Ris rejection and death. Note the divine “must” (v. 31).' While it is true that wicked men showed their hostility toward our God and His Christ by hanging Him on Calvary’s cross, yet it was to die for our sins that He came into the world. The cross has rightly come to represent God’s Iovb to the world rather than man’s hostility to God.

Wherever it is he keeps such things, Cummings has three pieces of paper, all signed and sealed, which ■ would be to any one a rea­ sonable guaranty bf happiness. The first is his newly acquired marriage, license, the party of the second part be­ ing ex - a ctress M ary E llio tt (“ex” because she promised Robert to give up her career when they were married). That document also is signed by Bob’s mother, Mrs. Ruth Cum­ mings, who at 71 is an ordained minister in the Science of Mind church in Los Angeles. Mrs. Cum­ mings performed the wedding serv­ ice at Mission Inn, Riverside. The second document is a four- year term contract with the Hal Wallis productions which guarantees Bob the opportunity of reestablish­ ing himself in pictures. The kid’s been away from the screen for two years, serving as an air flight in­ structor with the United States air forces. He'* Got Everything The third bit of paper is his medical certificate attesting that he passed the air forces’ most rigid examination with points to spare— thus Cummings officially is healthy, he’s in love, and he’s got a good paying job. “Those papers mean a lot to me,” he said, “but they wouldn’t guaran­ tee a thing except for my philoso­ phy.” It’s a Uttle odd to talk to Bob about philosophy. His words and thoughts just don’t seem to fit his face. At 37 he looks like a college sopho­ more. He hasn’t the sign of a night dub bag under his eyes. The make­ up man doesn’t have to camouflage a network of crow’s feet. His voice is pitched in boyish enthusiasm. He even stammers occasionally, when words bottleneck and jam in their eagerness to overflow. He’s the type grandmothers describe as "that nice young man!” On the set of “You Came Along,” where Bob is making his screen reappearance for Hal Wallis, Bob’s mind took a philosophical turn. “Tardiness, I think, is the cardi­ nal sin,” he said. “People who get a lot of bad breaks usually have only themselves to blame. It's be­ cause they’re most always a few beats behind the normal rhythm of life,' and they get into trouble be­ cause they’re always hurrying to get caught up.” A simple thing like getting up in! the morning a half hour earlier Uian is necessary, Bob believes, would straighten out most people and change the course of their lives. It’s Worth Trying “It’s this way,” Bob explained. “You approach your day unhurried. You have the opportunity of plan­ ning your course of action. No need to rush and fumble. Each task gets the benefit of your com­ plete mental and physical energy. Your work improves, no m atter what it may be. Yoiur projects begin to succeed. The result is that peo-. pie begin to look at you and say, 'What a lucky guy he is!’ “It’s timing, that’s all.” Bob declares that acting isn’t nearly as im p o rtan t to him now as it once was. “The main reason I’m back in front of the camera now in ‘You Came Along’ is that the govern­ ment feels it will aid the war ef­ fort and that’s the only kind of pictures I want to appear in for the duration.” Although Bob’s contract with Wal­ lis is for four years, he is at liberty to act only by permission of the army air corps, from which he has been granted leave. When the picture is finished he expects to re­ port back for active duty. It’s a far cry from the time when I first saw Bob, then an unknown, working with Deanna Durbin in “Three Smart Girls” at Universal. At that time I saw him in two small scenes, but the kid had something 'and I wondered where in the world they’d been keeping him all this time. I told Bob that day that he - eventually would be making $4,000 a week. He blushed and laughed it off. Parenthetically I might add in a typographical aside, “Bob, I told you so!”• • • ft's Too, Too, Bad Bill Goetz is doing a slow bum over Orson Welles’ antics. If Orson doesn’t feel like it, he just doesn’t show up for work on “Tomorrow Is Fotever.” His sponsor got fed up.

Romulo, resident commis­ sioner of the Philippines to the United States, at the Philippine of­ fices here. President Osmena said: "Needless to say, we Filipinos are very pleased with the signal suc­ cesses achieved by the United States arid her allff? during recent months. After a long and hard struggle, the Germans have been pushed to the brink of overwhelming defeat and the end of the war in Europe is now clearly in sight. “In the Pacific, our gains have OSMENA been no less impressive. Under the inspiring leadership of such men as General MacArthur and Admiral' Nimitz, the Japanese have been dis­ lodged from one position after an­other in their ill-gotten empire. In this connection, my people and I are extremely grateful that the Philippines are now being liberated from the tyrannical rule of the enemy. “Happy as I am that my country will soon be able to live in peace again, much remains to be done be­ fore Japan is fully beaten. Aside from the additional campaigns which will be needed to obtain military victory in the Pacific, there is also the human factor to be considered in that other peoples of the Far East eagerly await to be freed from the enemy. We Filipinos know only too well from experience what it means to be under Japanese domination.' “One of the outstanding feats of the war has undoubtedly been the effective fashion in which the United States has overcome the formidable obstacles of distance in supplying the Pacific. Large quantities of supplies will be needed, however, to deliver the final crushing blows against a ruthless and fanatical enemy. AU of us can make certain that these sup- pUes are available for our armed forces by giving enthusiastic support to the Seventh War Loan Drive.” ONFABMS throughout the Nation this scene is being repeated daily Inl anticipation of the Mighty Seventh War Loan as farmers buy War Bondi with an eye to future electrical developments planned in the post-war period. Victory Vplunteer Edward Schroer, right, of Cole County, Missouri, sells a War Bond to Vernon Wade, center, while County Extension Agent Clydw Brown casts an appraising eye on Wade’s fine span of !Missouri mules. Moisenthau Cites Types of Issues . Issued to Public A grateful Nation has girded it­ self for the Mighty Seventh Wak Loan for 14 billions of dollars, half of which has been assigned as the individual sales quota. According to reports from state chairmen reach­ ing Ted R. Gamble, national di­ rector of the War Finance Division of Gie K easury In Washington, the Nation is realty for the huge task.Mr. Gamblewas enthusiastic about' isults. He said “We’re prepared to! do the best joh in the 7th War MORGENTHAU Loan." Mr. Gamble said that “not only is there more money available than ever before in each state, but in d iv id u a l in­ co m e w ill be higher In the pe- rlo d o f th e 7 th W ar L oan than in any previous W ar L o a n pe­ riod.” Secretary of the Treasury H enry Morgenthau said seven billions, of dollars has been assigned as the quota for individual investors and that the major emphasis throughout the drive will be placed on the quota for individ­uals. The individual quota is the highest established in any of the previous drives, the secretary said. The E Bond quota alone is 4 bil­lion. The 7th War Loan seeks near­ ly as much In the one drive as was asked In the first two drives of last ijrear which were held up to this time. The two drives of this year, therefore, will seek nearly as much as was sought in the three drives of 1944. The Secretary stated that there is every evidence that Federal ex­ penditures are going to remain at a high level for some time to come, and that the Seventh War Loan pro­gram was designed to obtain maxi­ mum funds necessary to prosecute the War from non-bank investors. K e securities, which will be sold under the direction of the State War Finance Committees, are as follows: Series E, F and G Savings Bonds, Series C Savings Notes, 2Vi% Bonds, 2Vi% Bonds, 1M% Bonds, %% Cer­ tificates of Indebtedness. The H4% Bonds will not be offered in the Drive to corporations. The Drive for individuals win ex­tend from May 14 to June 30. How­ ever, an intensification of activities in the sale of Series E bonds began April 9, when millions of persons on payroll savings plans throughout the country were asked to enlarge their participation as a part of the Seventh War Loan. AU Series E, F and G Savings Bonds and Series C Savings Notes processed through the Federal Reserve Banks between April 9 and July 7 will be credited to the Drive. During the final phase of the Drive which wiU cover the period from June 18 through Jtme 30, subscrip­ tions wiU be received from aU other non-bank investors for the 2V*% and 2Vx% marketable bonds and the cer­tificates of indebtedness.

In thinking of the recent depar lure of some of the world's great est leaders, greatest dictators and most dreaded men, and men with such power over the masses until they canid sway millions of people, the words of David came to me: “How are the mighty fallen.” ' It is a known fact that the might­ iest men of sin and wickedness have fallen through the ages of time. They never became so mighty but that death slays them. Many of these men have risen very high in power and influence over the world; have made men by millions fear them; have ascended to thrones, and stood at the head of nations, and led and directed mighty mili­ tary forces, thinking to conquer the world, regardless of the mill, ions whose blood they shed, and the millions they left oppressed and '.eft hungry and homeless, but the end always comes to snch men, God stops them when they have gone far enough. They cannot con­ quer nor overcome Almighty God. He is mightier than all wicked, sin-crazed, bloodthirsty, power-cra­ zed men. Praise His holy name. Men who arise in their might and power over the nations, leaving God out of their lives, soon run race. Usually a few years of wick­ ed leadership, rnlership, dietator- sbop, boastfulness, pride or vain popularity, tbentbe.end comes, so far as this life is concerned Thev go down in eternal defeat and dam nation. Even if the worldly and ungodly mourn their departure we realize the world is better off with­ out them. We are seeing great things hap­ pen today. Think of the . recent departure of some of the mightiest men of the world. “ How are . the mighty fallen!" Think of the re­ cord left behind! How dark, bow. black, how grimv, how smutty! Think of how they cnrsed the world with drunkenness, With war, with bloodshed! O the influence they wielded against God, against the church of the living God, a gainst Christianity, against moral, tty and SDirituality! I wouldn't be in their places for a million worlds. How arc the mighty fallen!” Fal­ len from powerful places of respon­ sibility; fallen from high positions in the eyes of the world; fallen ftom high positions in the eyes of the world; fallen, never to rise a. gain. Gone without God, without salvation, without hope, so far as we know, and gone to where there is “ weeping and gnashing of teeth” forever. O how awful, awful. Let's see wbat God says about the wicked. "The dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought. “The wicked is reserved ta the day of destruction.” “The wicked shall be turned into bell, and all the na­ tions that forget God.” “ Evil shall slay the wicked.” “I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not; yea, I sought him, but he could not be1 found.” We read of the wicked kings and rulers in the Bible; how they had power, over the nations, some .of whom were very cruel, treacherous, bloody, tyrannical and oppressive; how they lorded it over God’s peo pie, even putting them to death; yet those wicked men went down nnhonored to the grave and to dam. nation: Think ot old -Herod who beheaded John the Baptist. Who honors Herod today? Nobody that we know of; but millions honor and highly respect John the Baptist, whose life and influence lives for practically nineteen centuries to bless the world. Thank God for. ever. Mighty men in wickedness fall in due time unless they repent. It &ems, however, that few have ever repented and found favor with God. W ith few exceptions they fell forever. We hear of Alexander the Great who was a world conqueror. I be Iieve it is said that he wept, after becoming the world's greatest con queror because he didn’t have an. other world to conquer. But in the prime of life, and at the height of military power and worldly fame, he died drunk. Napoleon, another mighty mill*, tary genius, after he came near conquering the world, was finally defeated at the battle of Waterloo, and was banished from his country und died in exile. “ How are the mighty fallen!*’ We are conscious these men coule have been mighty for God in helping to save man­ kind, whereas, they were indeed powerful in destroying men and nations. They fell to their own damnation. Wickedness slew them. How great was their fall! How great is the fall of all m ighty men who gave their lives to the devil instead of God! Take heed, dear reader, and follow not the pathway they trod, beeause it always leads to defeat and damnation. However, when m ighty men of God fall in death, who have been burning and shining lights to the world, and have been true and faithful unto God, how different! How wonderful. Men and nations rise up to pav homage and call them blessed. They name their childien after them. They pub Iish their biographies for millions of people to read, and these are handed down from generation to generatioit to bless the world. The sainted Stephen fell under a shower of stones, cast at him by wjeked men, but he fell in the tri. nmps. of faith and victory. While dying his face shone like that ot an angel. He was a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost. Af­ ter nineteen hundred years the world honors and respects Stephen, and his life is still weilding a pow­ erful influence over the world. The same is true of Paul, who was mar- tyred by the wicked Nero, Mil lions honor Paul today, but nobody honors Nero. • Queen Mary was known as Bloody M ary,” because she shed the blood of many, many protest, ants. B uttbe saintedJohn Knox- prayed her off the throne, Today “ Bloody Mary” has a fearful re- cord in history, but John Knox, that migbtv man of God, has a re cord of qlessedness that lives on aud on to bless the word. Glory to God, and Hallelujah! * How wonderful to live tor God. How beautiful, sublime and glor­ ious. The saint of God shines for ever. It is indeed wisdom to live for God, live for the good of man­ kind by winning souls and helping pilgrims reach heaven. “They that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmanent; and they that turn many to righteous ness as the stars forever and ever.” John Wesley wasa powerful man of God, and one of the world’s greatest soul-winners. He went forth to spread Scriptnal Holiness over the earth. He died a-marvel ous, victorious death and left such an influence behind until multiplied millions of people have been blessed by his life. No doubt millions will reach heaven because of the great life and influence ot John Weslev. During the time of Wesley lived the mighty infidel Voltaire. He bated the Bible and rejected God His business was to spread infidel, ity over the earth It is said when he came to die it was dreadful. His death was horrible. He fell a prey to the devil. While be may have a few wscked. ungodly, worthless followers, who are helping him corse the world, bnt who honors Voltaire enongb to name their chil. dren after him? No one. 'Even his followers won’t name their child ten Voltaire. But mighty men of faith and of God have many name, sakes, and they live on for ages to bless the world. Liqoort More LMjoor People may lack meat but/they most have their liquor. They may need shoes bnt somehow provision is always made for them to get drunk. Thus, we are to have a li­ quor holiday. It’s to come in July, coincident with the celebration of Independ­ ence day, a day made passable this year by the effort of American soldi­ ers The holiday is a 30-day affair when the booze plants will be al lowed to speed production, increase stocks, use food materials for whiskey when the world is about to go hungry. American are being warned to tighten their belts and at the same tlnfe invited to open their throats and drink more liquor. W ar workers are being begged to remain on the job; everybody is asked to bny war bonds. At the same time, green light is given al- coholr-more and more of it. It doesn’t make sense. While energetic measures are urged to curb juvenile and. adult delinquency, the government al- lows greater production of the chief cause. The world may fall but America must go on a spree. Somebody in authority must be crazy or drunk —probably both. — Charlotte Ob* server. Senator Taft For End­ ing Lend-Lease Republicans of the United States Senate have accused the administra tion of a “ branch of faith” in con­ tinuance o f Iend-Iease to Russia although the Soviet Union is at peace with Japan. Senator Taft (R-Ohio) told a re­ porter all shipments to the U. S S. R. should cease except those already under contract and those containing arms and supplies f o r Russians troops preoccupying 500.000 Japan­ ese on the Manchurian border. T a f t joined Senator Bridges (R-NH) and Bushfield (R SD) in de­ manding in the Senate that the ad­ ministration live up to a pledge a- gainst using lend-lease for post-war rehabilitation. Bridges charged the State Depart­ ment with a "studied attem pt to continue iend-lcase on pretext of a military situation no longer directly connected with the war in Europe .1 “We. cannot have any diversions of of lend-lease for any purp se except to those countries which are vigor­ ously and openly working with us to defeat Japan,” Bridges declared. “This is the clear intent of Con- gres8 ,” Busnfield commented that congres­ sional intent is for lend-lease to go only "to countries aiding the United Statesin war and Russians not at war.” After Senators had recalied/ the promise of Foreign Ekmnomic Ad ministrator Leo T. Crowley that no lend-lease aid would be used for re­ habitation purposes, Taft said it is apparent that State Department is overrnling Crowley in a "breach of faith with Congress.” Crowley’s pledge was given to congressional committees prior to recent Leud- Lease Act Extension.

Children MuM Attend School Raleigh — Interpretation and en­ forcement of the Labor Law.” has not been affected by the amended to the compulsory school attendance law.” Forrest H. Shuford. State Commissioner ot Labor said in a memorandum to all County Super- intendents of Welfare. “The Child Labor Law provides that minors 14 and 15 years years of age cannot be emplnyed during the hours when school is in session. The only ex- ception Io the provisions of this law is for minors who are employed in domestic or agricultural work under tbe supervision or direction of their parents,” Shuford stated. The amendment by the General Assembly of 1945 to the compulsory attendance law provides that' during tbe twelve months following July I, 1945 children between tbe ages of seven and fifteen sbail attend school. On July 1.1946 and thereafter, child, ren between seven and sixteen must attend school. For the duration of and six months following the end of World War II, children living on farms or working in commercial fish­ ing or fisheries are exempted and Superintendents of Schools may ex­ cuse any male child 14 to 16 years of age for employment that is permit­ ted by the labor laws of this State. “Considering the two laws togeth­ er. one can readily see that during tbe coming (fecal year minors L4 years of age, since tbey cannot work under the provisions of the Child La­ bor Law, cannot, as heretofore, quit school and roam the streets On and after July I. 1946 thiB will be true of all minors up to 16 years of age.” Work permits are issued by Coun- ty Welfare Superintendents. Appli­ cations must be made and permits issued before any minor under 18 years of age can be employed. RATION GUIDE SUGAR-Book 4, Stamp 35 is valid for 5 pounds. Stamp 36 is valid through Aug. 31.

C. Up Front With Fighting Leathernecks on Okinawa W a s h in g to n , S . C . GERMAN PRISON LABOR Officials are keeping very Bim., about it, but the entire question of; using German prison labor to re-| build Russia and Tlrance has been; thrown into a new controversy by a secret opinion rendered by Supreme: Court Justice Robert Jackson, who has taken over U. S. prosecution of war criminals. Justice Jackson wrote his opinion, to TJ. S. Reparations Chief Ed Pauley, stating that in his opinion compulsory German labor should not be used to rebuild France and Russia unless they have been con-, victed of war crimes. "It is not my business what is to be done with reparations,'" Jackson wrote, “but this would largely de­ stroy the moral position of Ameri­ ca in this wax. . . . Compulsory labor,” he continued, "should be required only for convicted war criminals." Jackson went on to point out that German labor “drifting out of Rus-: sian concentration camps in the fu­ ture would tell tales of horror" which, even if exaggerated, would “arouse sharp condemnation in the Urated States.” He urged, there­ fore, that German labor not be used for reparations until they had been convicted of war crimes. He indicated that members Cf the Ges­ tapo and the SS Elite guard undoubt­ edly were war criminals as a class, but the every member of the Nati party might not be classified as a war criminal. Following Justice JaeksontS bombshell, a hurried meeting was called In Secretary Morgen- than’s office, attended by Ed Pauley, Assistant Secretary of State Win Clayton, the army, navy, FEA, and other inter­ ested government agencies. Sec* retary Morgenthau vigorously protested this new development. It was pointed out by some that the use of German prison labor had been agreed to at TaIta by President Roosevelt himself and, therefore, could not be changed. “If we have to wait for the con­ viction of all these war criminals before we can get German labor,” suggested Reparations Chief Pauley, “we may have to wait a year. Mean­ while, there may hot be enough Germans to repair the damage in France and Russia.” Pauley also made the point that he had been charged by the Presi­ dent with the handling of repara­ tions and, therefore, would have to make the final decision himself after his arrival in Europe. After further discussion, however, Pauley agreed to accept Justice Jackson’s opinion in principle, namely, that only convicted war criminals could be used as prisoner labor. This leaves the whole question pretty much up in the air. However, it has been hinted that Justice Jackson will endeavor to in­ dict groups of Germans as a class. In other words, he may try the Ges­ tapo as a group, not Individually, and decide that every member of the Gestapo automatically is a war criminal. This probably will be done with Hitler’s SS Elite corps. Wheth­ er a blanket indictment will also be lodged against the Nazi party re­ mains to be seen.* • * TRAINING FILMS DESTROYED. The army doesn't want it known, but it has a new way of handling one type of surplus property. In the case of training and orientation film, it burns old prints. According to a survey made by movie ex­ perts, old films last summer were being burned at the rate of 225 tons weekly at Astoria, N. Y. Meanwhile other government agencies, schools and universities are anxious to buy these outmoded prints from the army. In fact, the U. S. office of transportation had to spend $60,000 of the taxpayers’ money to make 10 new reels of its own when the army refused to sell it the army’s excellent series of 20 reels for the training of auto mechanics. Sen. Francis Myers of Pennsyl­ vania, Democrat, has just written Maj. Gen. Harry Ingles, chief of the signal corps, demanding an explana-' tion. The making of training films and orientation films by the army has been a major operation. Thousands of subjects have been turned out at a tremendous outlay, and produc­ tion schedules have been, more crowded than those of any Holly­ wood studio. The films have proved remarkable training aids, with officers claim­ ing that they cut at least in half the length of time needed to teach men such things as first aid, etc. . . .

The “talking helmet” is a four-tube crystal-controlled transmitter. ,A FEW old-timers were talking a -X day or two ago about the best combination pitching staffs, induct ing two stars. It all began on a visit to Detroit where naturally they were talking about Newhouser and Trout, who came close to winning the pennant for the Tigers last fall. I could take them back to the days of Mathewson and Mc- G innity, a p re tty fair two-man com­ bination. There were others, including Jack Chesbro, who were just as good Dizzy TCrout or just as effective, anyway. But those were times far away and long ago. Few modern fans recall their names. But this is getting away from all-star pitching strength where twb men are con­ cerned on one team. Several re­ quests have come in from service­ men, especially those overseas, to hear more about Newhouser and Trout, the winning Tiger combina­ tion. We put this problem up to E. A. Batchelor, the Detroit expert, who came through promptly with the fol­ lowing: “Newhouser had threatened to be a fine pitcher ever since he joined the Tigers at the age of 18, with a very limited minor league experi­ ence. He had plenty of ‘swift’ and an excellent curve, but he also had two serious defects. He never could get the ball over the plate without easing up on his stuff and he sulked and pouted whenever things went wrong for him. It used to be said that Harold was licked as soon as an error was made behind him— that he was a rank quitter it he didn’t get all the breaks. Couldn't Stand Defeat “The trouble seemed to be that be couldn’t get over the idea that he should win every game he pitched. No matter how good his perform­ ance, if the other team ontscored the Tigers he felt that Fate had kicked him right in the seat of the pants. There may be better ways of acquiring unlimited unpopularity with one’s teammates than a chron­ ic m artyr complex, but we don’t re­ call any of them at the moment. Newhouser was cordially disliked by tne entire Tiger squad. When he pitched the whole team tightened up and played its worst ball. “Paul Richards, probably is de­ serving of a great deal of the credit for Newhouser’s development from a problem child into a real pitcher. This veteran backstop was acquired by the Tigers from Atlanta, where he had been manager, to help fill the hole left by the departure of George ‘Birdie’ Tebbetts for the army. “He conveyed the idea that a suc­ cessful pitcher works on the bat­ ters’ weaknesses and does not mere­ ly try to throw the ball past them by main strength. And so, in one year, he developed all the latent tal­ ent of the young southpaw and helped to earn for him the awardof most valuable player Ii^ the American League. Gay, Eccentric Trout “Trout, in many respects, is the exact opposite of Newhouser in men­ tal make-up. Instead of being a sulk­ ing, self-centered athlete, he was al­ ways the ‘good fellow.’ He worked all his waking hours at his trade of being a charming eccentric. Noth­ ing seemed to worry him—not even the necessity for winning an occa­ sional ball game. It was the feeling of the fans that he was more in­ terested in clowning than in pitch­ ing; that he would rather get a laugh than a digit in the win col­ umn. Everybody liked him and ev­ erybody wanted to see him win, ev­ erybody, except,, it seemed, himself. “Then, all of a sudden, Paul seemed to tumble to the idea that his extra curricular activities as the life of the party could be reconciled with doing a serious job on the mound. Just about the time he was ready to receive one of those long green railroad tickets to the minors, he settled down to work. He won 20 games in 1943 with a club that wasn’t gcing anywhere in particular and he liked the idea of being a win­ ner so weU that he kept it up in 1944 with 27 victories. “It wasn’t that Paul suddenly un­ covered some new stuff. He hasn’t a bit more on the baU now than he had when he was struggling to break even. He always has had a fine curve ball and exceptional . control, to say nothing of poise that even an earthquake couldn’t dis­ turb. He just naturally grew up— at long last. I- “One characteristic that these two pitchers. have in common is theirvwillingness to work. One or the other was in over half of the games that the Tigers played last year, in almost 70 games of record. Even when they were starting games far oftener than is customary in the ma­ jor leagues, they were doing relief work for faltering associates. And their associates last season had a positive genius for faltering. In fact, all the rest of the Tiger pitchers combined, won only 32 games, or a little over half as many as the two stars. * D e a le r,. »eU ap ro n s m ad e b y M ex ican In ­d ian s.

THE STORS THUS FA R: Melody Jones and George F nry rode into Payne* VIllet strangers. Wblle tbere Melody w as m istaken tor the wanted outlaw, M onte Jarrad- Cherry, Monte’s girl, inshed them out to her farm , where they inet her brother Avery. As a posse was after them Melody and F nry left tow ard the tjorder, returning after dark to hide Inv Ibe attfc-' until fenttd by A veiy. Mel­ ody stayed the rest of the night while Fury returned to Paynevllle. In the m orning Cherry led Melody tow ard the border. She took him to the old Rown- tree ranch and lied about how the Cot­ tons killed the Rowntrees. Melody rode back Into town, and Monte showed np to get Cherry's aid. CHAPTER IX His entrance was immediately spoiled by a trivial impasse. A round card table was planted in the narrow space just within the door, to take advantage of what breeze there might be; and here thfee slouch- dressed cowmen sat, tied up in a game of draw. The tilted chair of the fattest one blocked the way by which Melody might have passed. Melody stood looking at them in a baffled sort of way, hoping they would let him pass. Either these were men who knew he was not • Monte Jarrad, or they did not even know that he was supposed to be. Melody cleared his throat. The fat one in the tilted chair looked up at him with a leisured insolence,' -and went back to his hand. "Can I git by, please?" Melody said. “Raise you five,” said the man in’ the tilted chair, tossing a chip onto the table. Melody’s mind stopped turning, then, something like it had in the moment in which he had hit Ira Wag­ goner; except that this time the rea­ son was that he was scared. He took a half-step backward; to give himself room. "I call," Melody said. He took a long step forward, boot swinging, and kicked the table straight up, out from among them. The bartender, the same one who had served Melody before, looked as scared as a man could lookl His hands were held a Ufde above the surface of UiC bar, not' exactly raised, but ostentatiously in view. He made a motion toward the back room with his head. Ira Waggoner sat alone beside the table, now, in the dim, stuffy quiet of midday. He looked Melody Jones steadily in the eye, without any expression, as Melody came in. He gave no oth­ er sign of recognition. He was one day behind his shave, and his cheek lines showed more hard-weather rid­ ing than feeding; but his eyes were the kind used for seeing the actu­ al, as a profession. ' “You want to see me?” Melody said. He had wanted to make that sound hard, and kind of relentless^ but' the: best he accomplished Was to make it a mumble. “Sit down,” Ira Waggoner said. -Because he had not foreseen this correctly, Melody was caught un­ awares, and obeyed. ■ "You know what I want with you,” Ira Waggoner said. “Do I?” . “You don’t need to keep watching my gun," Waggoner said. His voice was low and flat, but inexpressibly bitter. “When I figure you need it, you’ll get it all right. And you know that, too. There’s only about three men in the southwest I can’t swap lead with. One of them is Monte Jarrad. But you ain’t him.” "No?" Melody said. : “No,” Waggoner repeated. “I don’t know who you are, and I don’t give a damn. And I don’t know why you’re sucker enough to front for Monte, either. But it don’t go with me. There’s one thing I want to know from you, and you know what it is; and I’m going to have it, now.” . “Oh?” said Melody. He kept won­ dering whether he could shoot this man, if he had to. It was a sickly sort of a wonder, because the an­ swer was so plain. ; “There’s'one thing in this country that will get a man salted down Quicker than stealing a horse," Wag­ goner said. “That thing is a double- cross. I could have shot Monte in two, easy, the morning he come aboard' the stage; and it Come to my mind to do it, too. Monte should have drew out when he saw I hadn’t been able to get rid of the shot- gun.guard. ..But I went on and played'm y half of the game; and how you fellers have got to play yours!” “The hell with it. I want to know where that strongbox is. You’re go­ ing to take me to it. If you think you ain’t, try to walk out that door, Without I say you can!” : "This here is disappointin’,” Mel­ ody said. . “I was kind of hoping you would have some kind of idee Of what I seemed to have did with it.”Waggoner was looking - baffled again. “What you did with it?” / They stared' at each other. “I see what’s the matter,” Melody said at last, “I.keep forgetting that you don’t- think Tm Monte Jarrad any more.” Waggoner reddened. “You never fooled me, except for that couple of minutes,” he said. “That throws me sideways,” Mel­ ody admitted, “I hadn’t figured on this. I don’t hardly know what to say next.’’.He. to.ok his.hat off,.,and. looked inside it, and wiped perspira­ tion from his forehead with his gloved left hand. “That phony scar,” Ira Waggon­ er said with irony, “is beginning to rub loose.” Ira Waggoner brought his heels to the floor and. f a c e d Melody squarely across the' table. “Fm waiting for you to talk,” he said, as if he didn’t mean to wait much longer. “You figure I know where it is?” Melody asked pointlessly. “I figure that you better.” “Mister,” said Melody Jones, “you are easily the worst damn fool I ever see in years of riding. And I’ve rode from hell to Sunday.” Ira Waggoner stared at him blank­ ly. “What?” he said. “Think where you be,” Melody Jones suggested. “You’re a free man, and you can , go where you want to. You could be in Tucson, or Seattle. But allowing that you got to be in the Last Chance bar—don’t you ever look where you set? You could just as well have set over there with your back to plain wall. Or you could be standing up, where you could look all around you. I swear I don’t know how you’ve lived as long as you have.” “Well?” Waggoner smiled a lit­ tle, knowing what was coming now, “Look behind you,” said Melody, “and you’ll see a door.” Waggoner grinned a little on one side of his face, but did not take his “Can I get by, please?” eyes from Melody Jones. “Look at' it again yourself,” he said with a weary contempt. “The ,, glass is painted over.” But as Melody looked at the paint­ ed glass in tile door he saw some­ thing else now. A clear place the. size of a quarter showed where the paint had been scraped away. And: as Melody looked at that peep-hole,: the peep-hole blinked. After a mo­ ment Melody'was able to' make out: the eye that was looking at him through the peep-hole in the door. There was an ugly patronizing complacence in Ira' Waggoner’s tone now. “There ain’t anything behind •that door,” he said,............ “I’m right sorry;”’ Melody heard himself saying with flat candor, “to hear you take that view. Because I have an idee that somebody’s num­ ber is coming up, in about two sec­ onds, now.” . “Yours, maybe,” Waggoner said, tossing aside his patience. “It might be mine,” Melody said. “But there's just one off-chance that it might be yours. I sure wish you’d give a little thought to that. We can always talk later on—if only some bad accident don’t happen to—” Ira Waggoner said savagely, 'T ve heard enough of—” ,- - And then he .broke . off Suddenly and sat utterly still, as if He. were holding his breath'. . The door behind hirioi' was opening gently; and a soft voice 'said, “So have I.” Ira Waggoner moved h{s-.hands Mowly .and placed them' fiif plant sight upon XOe table. ' TKeri eiten more Mowly he swung his bead bade to look over his shoulder. . “Hello, Lee," Waggoner said queerly; but he left his hands where'' they were, only stiffening them a littie so that they pressed more tightly' upon the' wood. “Who’s this?” asked the stranger of Waggoner, Without taking his eyes off Melody. “I don’t know, Lee,” Waggoner said. By the placating note that came into Waggoner’s voice, Melo­ dy knew that whoever the stranger was, he was one of those few others beside Monte Jarrad' whom Wag­ goner was afraid of. “All I know is he tried to pass himself off for Monte.” "I know that already,” the strang­ er said. "He’s got Monte’s saddle on his horse:” He drew a hard breath .through one nostril, and it drew up one side of his mouth in what looked like a sneer. Later Mel­ ody found out that this was caused by the fact that this man could , breathe through only one side of his nose. He shifted his eyes to Wag­ goner now and they had less warmth than the eyes of a Gila lizard. “What kind of a deal are you mak­ ing with this punk?” “No deal, Lee,” Waggoner said doggedly. “I want to know what kind of a score is being run up, that’s all. There’s things I got a right to know.” The stranger’s words came a lit­ tle more softly. “What kind of things?” “If anything’s gone ■ wrong—” Waggoner started to say. “Pray there ain’t anything gone wrong!” His face contorted again in that unexpected combination of a sniff and a sneer. “If I find out it did, and you was mixed up in it, I’ll come after you, and-I’ll get you; and I reckon you know I keep my word.” “I know that, Lee.” “Set here where you are until you hear me ride off., After that, stay in this town. Be where it won’t be any trouble to find you, if you’re want­ ed.” Ira Waggoner hesitated for per­ haps three seconds more. “Okay, Lee,” he said. Lee turned to Melody. “Let’s go.” He indicated the door with a sway of his head. “Walk ahead of me until we’re in the street.” In the street the man called Lee picked up his reins where they lay loose across the hitch-rail, turned his horse so that his animal was be­ tween himself and Melody, and swung up. "Mount your pony,” be said. Melody mounted. “Ride by my nigh stirrup—close.” "Mister,” said Melody Jones, “I sure appreciate you fetching me out. 'I was gitting mighty restless, set­ ting there.” “You don’t know yet why I done it, huh?” “No; because I haven’t got the faintest kind of idee who you be.” The stranger studied him for a mo­ ment. “I ,reckon that might be so,” he decided. "I never set eyes on you before. I’m Lee Gledhill. That mean anything?” “No," Melody said. Sniff-sneer, went the stranger’s face. “This ain’t easy to believe.” “Believe what you want,” Melody answered. “How come," Lee Gledhill asked curiously, “that a punk like you found a way to kill Monte Jarrad?" “So I killed Monte Jarrad,” Melo­ dy said, with a certain amount of stupor. “That’s what you figure, huh?" They were out of the town, by this time. Lee Gledhtil took a look back the way they had come; then his eyes ran around the perimeter of the hills, “What makes you think he’s even daid?’.’::Melody demanded, flustered by the silence. “His saddle is on your horse,” Lee answered him at last. “You wouldn’t ever nave got* Monte’s saddle off him without you dry-gulched him first, and he was dead.” ; "Well, I know good and weU he’s alive,” Melody contended. “You do?” Lee said with ugly disinterest. “You do? Where is he then?” “What makes you so daid sure,” he offered with faint hope, “that I ain’t Monte Jarrad?” “You don’t look nothin’ like him to me. I don’t know how anybody mistook you for him, even with his stuff.” “Okay,” said Melody. “I want to ask you just one'thing more. Who do you think was quickest with a gun, you or Monte?” “The man never Uved that could match him,” Lee GledhUl said. “Not even me.” “And according to you, I am the man who shot him down,” Melody said. “By your own way of figur­ ing, you ain’t got any more chancet with me than a yaUer gal St a squaw sale. What’s the matter? Don’t you want to live no more?” Melody Jones felt his scalp creep as he heard how siUy that .frati bluff sounded, even to himself. No smUe crossed Lee Gledhill’* face. He evidently took the threat more- seriously than Melody could. He continued to study Melody un­ hurriedly, and his heatless eyes lopked thirty years older than his face. "I thought of that,” Lee said. Vlf you outshot a m an like Monte in a fair tight, and can do it again, IyouvU kin me like a duck.' But I don’t think you did. I’m gambling that you'shot him from in back.” "What you aim to do?” Melody asked, seeking information. “I can’t make a deal with you,” Lee GledhUl decided. “Not across Monte Jarrad’s corpse. I wouldn’t trust you if I could.” He drew in one long, lip-pulling breath and then his face became still. ‘T m going to throw this cigarette down now. It’s up to you to take care of your­ self in any way you can, as soon as it leaves my hand.” 'Took,” Melody began. “Turn off the road,” Lee Gled- hill told him. 'Look,” Mdody said again. He pulled up his pony, but faUed to obey. “You want to know where Monte is?” ' • (TO B E CONTINUED) ...............IMPROVED--------T~ UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S U N D A yl C H O O L L e s s o n B y HABOItD I/, LUNDQUIST, D.

GOLDEN T E X T -Y e shall be witnesses Onto m e both In Jerusalem , and In all Judea, and In Sam aria, and unto the utter­ m ost p art of the earth.—Acts 1:8 . The church of Jesus Christ, glori­ ous in spite of her failings, is the greatest institution known to this world, That is true because while it is in this world, the church is not of the world, but of God. He estab­ lished the church as the fellowship of believers to do His work in the world. For more than 19 centuries the Christian church has served Him with varying degrees of conse­ cration and usefulness. The beginning of the work of the church is of special interest, for such a study will show whether we today are following in the right path. We find in our lesson Uiat the early church was distinguished by: I. Obedience to God (w . 29-32). The disciples filled with the Holy Spirit were bold in declaring the gospel and in proclaiming their risen Lord. Realizing that the apostles’ message was winning the people, the leaders of the Jews admonished them not to speak in the name of Christ (Acts 4:18). When they con­ tinued, the priests threw them into prison, but an angel set them free (Acts 5:19). When they were again appre­ hended and accused of disobeying the command of the high priest, Peter and the others responded by pointing out that they were under a higher command, that of God Him­ self. Him they would obey, come what may.' Who will deny that we need a renewal of that spirit in the church today? We need to lose our fear of men and their little authority, and regain a larger measure of obedi­ ence to God. H. A Convicting Message (v. 33). When God’s Word is preached with complete obedience to Him, something is sure to happen. Men and women will be convicted of their sin. They will be cut to the heart. That conviction will show itself in one of two ways. Some will be re­ pentant and will cry out with the jailer at Philippi, “What must I do to be saved?” (Acts 18:30). Turn­ ing to Christ, they will find deliver­ ance from sin. Others will harden themselves in their wicked ways and become even more bitter in their hatred of Christ and the church. In our lesson we find them taking counsel to kill the disciples. Knowing themselves* to be wrong and seeing that God’s work revealed their sin, but not being willing to give it up, they tried to de­ stroy the witness against them. We see that same spirit opera­ tive today. To be sure, it does not usually show itself in such crude action as physical killing, although the day when that may happen again may not be far away. In our cultivated time, it is re­ vealed in a scholarly attack upon God's Word, an undermining of the faith of our young people in schools or colleges, or a ridiculing of those- who wish to live a separated, con­ secrated life. IQ. No. Compromise (w . 34, 36, 38-40): A wise mari, Gamaliel, presented what we would now call a program of appeasement. He urged that they wait and see what would happen. At first glance his idea seems to be most conimendable, and of course it did, save the. lives of the disciples at the moment.'But it was essentially a “do-nothing” policy of compromise. If he believed in what the disciples were doing, he should: have come out boldly on their side. Notice that the believers had no part in this scheme. They Iis-' tened, but did not give assent. They; took tile beating and- WentAright; out and preached the gospel again. What a fine example for us to fol­ low! Those who are alert to the real problems of the church today recog­ nize that the willingness to com­ promise with the world, the flesh, and (so it seems at times) the devil; himself for the sake of peace, is: destroying the real ministry of tbs church. IV. Absolute Fearlessness (w . 40, 42). The early church was a very small group of believers' with no position of influence or power .in the world. Humanly speaking, it would: have been expedient for them to heed the admonition now twice giv­ en (compare Acts 4:18)- arid confine their testimony to a private wit-l JSS. - ' ; But they had hearts, which were- aflame with the fire of God, a coin-’ mission to take the good news. of God’s saving grace to all men, and' the assurance, of "God’s presence (see Matt. 28:19, 20, Acts 1:8), and Itiiey were absolutely fearless; The world admires true Courage not only on the battlefield, but in the pulpit The criticism which men in the Iarmed services make of the church ,centers at this point, namely, that the church has been too timid about giving out the Word of God, about really believing and practicing i t SEWiNG CIRCLE NEEDLECRAFT Bluebirds in Color on Linens D l u e b ir d s — the symbol of happiness—what more appro­ priate motif for a prospective bride’s linens?

Murray and Dallas Renegar officiated and inter­ ment was in the Farmington Cemetery.Mr. Spillman died Tuesday afternoon after an illness of onlv a tew hours. He had lived in the Farmington community ' for the past 3S years. He owned and op-1 erated one of the leading river farms in j Davie County. He was well known in' the county and active in civic affairs of the community, and was a leader In the Republican party there. Surviving are the widow, ' Laura Steel- man Spillman; one son, W. Spillman, of Farmington: four daughters, Mrs. W. P. Comatzer of Farmington, Mrs. F. D. Poin­ dexter of Cana, Mrs. J. C. Hendricks of Clemmons, and Mrs. W. M. Taylorof Winston-Salem; 13 grandchildren and four gteat grandchildren, and one nephew and one neice. . A survey of food babits of the children In th e Davie County schools bas recently been completed by Health Educators from the For- sytb-Davle-Stokes Yadkin County Health Department. The survey and nutrition program was done by Miss Kay McNevin and Miss Ruth Brossman under the direction of Miss Maribelle Guin. Included in the survey were 1069 children from Davie county schools. The children of the first and se cond grades were included in the instructional program but were not included In the study of diet habits. The results of the survey point out some outstanding deficiencies in the diet of the children. Nearly two thirds ot the children do not drink sufficient milk and over -half of those surveyed eat little or no butter. This lack of milk and but­ ter is a serious deficiency since milk products are most necessary to the development of teeth , and bones and to the general good health of grow­ ing children. Milk and butter both contain Vitamen A which has been tound to be essential to healthy eyes, a most important factor in the life of the school child. It interesting to note that Davie Coun­ ty is a milk producing area but . for some reason 64 per cent of the children do not drink sufficient milk. The lack of vegetables and fruits In meals may be due partlv to the season. Laterln the summer'as gardens progress it is likdy that the deficiencies in this, respect will be improved. At the time the sur­ vey was made 61 per cent of the children were not getting enough fruits. Most noticeable is the lack of yellow and green vegetables such as sweet pot toes, carrots, greens, and of raw vegetables and fruits. These foods are important because of their high content of vitames and minerals which are necessary tor the body to maintain vigorous health and be able to resist disease. Another factor revealed by the survey shows that 75 per cent of the children eat no whole graio cereals or brown- bread. Nutri- tionists and food experts In the United States agree that the use of brown bread and brown cereals is most important. The findings of the survey indi­ cate a very definite need tor a con tinuous progiam of nutrition teach ing in the schools of Davie countv. There is undoubtedly a very high correlation between the diet of the children as found in this survey of food babits and in. the health con dition of the school children as re vealed In the phyical examinations of the children early in the year. Parents are urged to give more attention to the diet and food habits of the children through the sum­ mer minths. Fresh fruits and ve­ getables are abundant from home gardens and milk and butter along with eggs and a reasonable amount of meat is available to most homes. Whole grain cereals should be a- bundant in Davie Countv to most children. It is expected that a re- survey will be made during the next school year and it is believed that it parents will attend to the habits of their children that const, derable improvement will be noted by the opening of the next school vear. The County Health Department has been most cooperative in the valuable aid rendered to the schools during the current vear. it was stated by County Superintendent, Charles C. Erwin In discussing the findings of the food and health ha. bits of tbe children in the Davie County Schools. Birthday Dinner About 40 relatives and Mends gathered at the home of V. S. Hendricks Sunday to heliyrim celebrate his 71st birthday. A bounteous dinner was enjoyed, and the occasion was one to be long remembered by Mr. Hendricks and family.

N ews Behini t h e / N j „ by P a u l M a l l o n ^ ’Sidney Hiitman . Released by W estern Newspaper Union. CIO EEBUKED AT SAN FRANCISCO CONFAB WASHINGTON.—Here is the story no one could get at San Francisco— the inside story of why Sidney Hill­ man, Russian labor, and leftists of British trade unions happened to assem­ ble their new world labor order on Oak­ land, across ths bay, just at the very day of the opening of the world peace conference, a n d what they were up to. AU inquiries were pushed aside out ■ there with the ex­ planation that this new world labor power, called the World Trade Union Congress, was merely looking for re­ flected publicity from its proximity ,to the conference, or something sim­ ilarly inconsequential, i It is no wonder the story was hid- Iden securely beneath a rubble of ^confusing explanations because it ,would have disclosed a coup de con­ ference planned by Mr. Hillman and his Russian associates—a coup ,which was squelched completely in a secret meeting of the conference 'ateerlng committee, despite inter-, Vention by no less a power than Mo­ lotov himself. These are the facts: I ' The Oakland labor assembly was completely under control of HUlmani 'and the Russians, with the British' riding quietly behind them. The head of the Russian labor delegation, at Oakland was also an official dele­ gate for Russia in the San Fran-; cisco peace meeting and the pipe-; line between. PJJVN WORKED CFON : Through him the Hillman crowd, worked up a program whereby they' ,would all get into the conference and Into the permanent peace setup by; being established as the group to handle world labor problems. I They succeeded in getting the eco- taomic committee of the conference to approve their entry as consult* !ants. The economic committee in­ cludes strong representation of !smaller nations, particularly Latin America. ' A resolution carrying out this pur­ pose was handed by the economic icommittee to the steering commit­ tee which is composed of all nations. After some warm discussion, that (guiding committee of the conference decided it would not even go into the m atter thoroughly and defeated |the resolution. I W henHillm ansawthiscom inghe !got Molotov to champion bis cause, Sand it was the Russian foreign min­ ister who pressed the matter as far .'as it went in the steering committee, : By his own adroitness, Hill- : man thus outslicked himself and disclosed his hand. That Molotov would chainpien his cause was all-too-obvious evi­ dence to everyone on Uie Inside that their fears and suspicions about Hillman’s trade nnion con­ gress had solid ground—Ifeit1 it was more Russian than wondly. { A few days later the Oakland !meeting quietly adjoufned without taking any noticeable action and Mr. Hillman went off to southern .California for a rest. I The frustration of the coup repre­ sented a victory for Bill Green, the AFL president, who has been vigor­ ously fighting Hillman’s attempt ,since the last election to establish ,with the Communist a world labor front. !WORLD LABOR FLANS Green demanded in resolutions passed by his executive council [(May 8) that world labor be repre­ sented in the future world order by ,the International Labor Office, a suc­ cessful creature of the old League [of Nations. ' Shrewdly he did not seek the place ;for his own AFL world group which 'is represented by an organization known as the International Federa­ tion of Trades Unioils. I He did not seek to steal for him . jaelf the world authority and power. !Which he would deny to the CIO1. icrowd, but would leave it to an es­ tablished League of Nations organ­ ization. His protection was impreg­ nable. L I hear that even the British have become suspicious of Hillman’s ef­ fort to align with the Communists jin a front which would in some ways e as powerful as the peace setup 'of the nations and—if Hillman’s coup bad gone through—able to influence ,the judgment of nations. The Rus­ sian unions are not free trade unions. I understand that even Sir Walter {Citrine,. the British ultra - liberal leader, is looking for open doors be­ hind him to escape politely Uie agreement. j The British trade unions which Iwere unanimously represented in .that London gathering have now jsplit, and I do not expect they will go very much further with Hillman and the Russian effort to capture World labor control. I Hillman, by this effort coining Stop his domestic Sectoral activi- ;es, has lost much ground In Wash- ■ particularly in congress;!;; ; S HOUSEHOLD MfMOS* 1 4 w . Sandw ich Inspiration for L unches (See Recipes Below) Sum m er Planning The sun’s in its heaven and there’s Work in the garden that needs doing. Or, perhaps it’s the wash ready to come down from th e lin e th a t needs folding and sprinkling. Vines hang heavy with berries crying to be made into jam s and jellies. In the midst of all this hum of activ­ ity, it’s lunch-time. I know you hardly want to take tike time to stop to make it, but the family will be indoors shortly. Some­ thing quick and easy to fix, and yet palatable enough to keep them sus­ tained until dinner? That’s the or­ der and here’s the way to carry it out: 1. Puree vegetables left over from dinner the evening before and store them in the refrigerator. AU you need to do is make up a thin cream sauce quickly and add vegetables to it; reheat and serve. 2. Keep a stock of sandwich fill­ ings on hand and let the family “spread” thfem for themselves dur­ ing lunch time. It saves you work. 3. Salad ingredients are a “must” for hot weather time. If there is washed lettuce chilled until crisp along with washed tomatoes, cucum­ ber, green onions, radishes, green peppers, end some of the fresh fruits kept on tap, it’s easy to toss a salad together in the time you could blink an eyelash. A variety of dressings will keep salads from be­ coming monotonous. 4. Draw heavily on fresh fruits for desserts. Plan to make ice cream, cake or cookies once a week to have on hand for a quick solution to the dessert problem. Sandwich Spreads. 1.

Toss together with oil and chopped hard-cooked egg. Spinadi nests make menus sparkle when served with eggs a- la-king, creamed spinach or shrimp. Young Keet greens take on new flavor when cooked and mixed with grapefruit section just be­ fore serving. Melted butter, salt and pepper are all the seasoning you-will need. Sour cream and cottage cheese, mixed thoroughly together are a good duo for sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, celery and green Green beans, peas and limas profit from a little bacon cooked with them.

Beleaaed by W estern N ew ipasw Union, lo o k in g a t HOLLYWOOD \ / [ OST of the wars of the world have been fought on California soil, around Hollywood, for the cam­ eras. And believe you me, that in. eludes the fracas that started in the Garden of Eden and is still going on—the battle of the sexes. AU kidding aside, Hollywood has become an expert military tactician, recreating combats from the dawn of history right down to the most modern warfare of World War II. Hardly a major engagement in the eternal struggle of man against man has not been waged for the studio' cameras. Within the shadow of Hollywood’s peaceful hills Greek phalanxes have marched and died. Cortez and his Spanish invaders have sent Monte­ zuma to his doom. The French have flooded the streets of Paris with the blood of civil war, stormed and cap­ tured the Bastille, and sent Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI to the guil­ lotine. We’ve refilmed the defeat of the Boche at Verdun. And the hero­ism of Doolittle and his bombing crew over Tokyo has been brought to the screen to thrill the hearts of all who believe in the Allied cause. Now It’s China Right now Hollywood is doubling for China, and Leslie Fenton is stag­ ing a Jap bomber foray against the China coast for “Pardon My Past." Fred MacMurray, who plays a mer­ chant seaman, gets a chance to see how the Nips work from overhead— and, incidentally, so does the audi­ence. In contrflst, “A Thousand and One Nights” uses Vasquez Rocks, sev­ eral miles outside town as the des­ ert near Bagdad. For “Counter-Attack” Zdtan Kor­ da took Paul Muni and Marguerite Chapman to Burbank, Calif., which appeared for this film as a portion of Russia invaded by the Germans. Last year Korda took a troupe to the Mojave, which served as the North African desert when Hum­ phrey Bogart rode across it in a tank in “Sahara.” Ancient NitioryIn contrast to the modem mech­ anized wars, the movies went back to the beginnings of history when Hal Reach made “1,000,000 B. C.” The battles, which employed crude weapons of flint and stone, were as factual as archaeological experts could make ’em. Yep, Hollywood posed the stone age and got away with it. Many otheT wars of antiquity have been fought for the movies. D. W. Grlffitii recreated the battles’of bib­ lical times for “Judith of Bethulia,” which had Chatsworth, CaUf., dou­bling for Palestine. A few years later D. W. built Babylon right in, what is now the heart of Hollywood. The walls of the city towered 300 feet into the air, and these walls were wide enough to accommodate two chariots rac­ing abreast. Cecil B. De MilIe used the old Paramount lot to house Rome, and he had that city sacked by the bar­ barians for a flashback sequence in “Manslaughter.” Egypt bt Own Back Yard For “Cleopatra” C. Bi built por­ tions of Egypt and even reproduced the battle of Actium in the studio tank. Claudette Colbert was an Egyptian queen and sailed the stu­ dio’s “Nile” in a luxurious barge that the real ruler couldn’t have equaled. The battle of Chateau Thierry, with John Gilbert participating, was one of the highlights of the unfor­gettable “The Big Parade.” A few palm trees and native huts and pres­ to! California became the Philip­pines for “The Beal Glory,” which had Gary Cooper in the star role. .' The Mojave also did duty as North Abica for two versions of Ouida’s novel “Under Two Flags.” Napo­ leon's retreat from Moscow, one of the greatest of all military opera­ tions, was shot in the environs of Culver City when MGM made “Con­ quest,” with Garbo and Charles Boyer. Dunkirk, one of the gravest ad­ ventures of this war, was the climax of Iy Power’s “A Yank in the RAF.” Since, T y has gone into uniform ofit the screen. Robert Taylor did a role in “Bataan” before he answered the call to the colors. Both have seen action more thrilling than they ever underwent before the cameras. One of these aeons, men are go­ ing to stop acting like kids and put away their deadly toy guns and can­nons. What men really grow up and learn to settle quarrels by ar­ bitration—just talking things over— there will be an end to war.Which is a wonderful tiling to look forward to — except, maybe,' for movie producers.• • • j Bracken Goes Crosby When you hear Cioshyt* voice coming out of Eddie Bracken’s face in “Out of This World” you’ll scream with laughter. The whole thing is a burlesque on swooning Sinatra. It’s funny, but with greater care it could have been another “Once In a Lifetime.” . ,'. George Marshall, director, turns accidents Into assets.

President Osmena said: "Needless to say, we Filipinos are very pleased with the signal suc­cesses achieved by the United States and her allies during recent months. After a long and hard struggle, the Germans have been pushed to the brink of overwhelming defeat and the end of the war in Europe is now clearly in sight. "In the Pacific, our gains have OSMENA been no less impressive. Under the inspiring leadership of such men as General MacArthur and Admiral Nimitz, the Japanese have been dis­ lodged from one position after an­other in their ill-gotten empire. In this connection, my people and I are extremely grateful that the Philippines are now being liberated from the tyrannical rule of the enemy. “Happy as I am that my country will soon be able to live in peace again, much remains to be done be­ fore Japan is fully beaten. Aside from the additional campaigns which' will be needed to obtain military; victory in the Pacific, there is also the human factor to be considered in that other peoples of the Far East eagerly await to be freed from the enemy. We Filipinos know only too. well from experience what it means' to be under Japanese domination.; "One of the outstanding feats of the war has undoubtedly been the effective fashion in which the United States has overcome the formidable the final crushing blows against a ruthless and fanatical enemy.

I looked upon him with a great deal of admiration and respect for sev­ eral reasons. He earned what he !baa with hard work and know-how. b is employees, numbering above jten thousand, call him Uncle Frank. |He Uves in a small town and helps « lot of people in a quiet way. Laot week somebody showed me a page of a pocket-size magazine published for the employees of his ,company and I read with grave in­ terest that his pay had befn cut. !That was news by anybody’s stand­ ard; most people are getting raises in pay these days. What’s more, this man’s pay-cut is big. It amounts to more in a year than most men manage to accumulate in a whole lifetime.' His Own Words *1 Insisted that die board of di­ rectors reduce my annual salary from $50,000 to one dollar,” the signed statement said, "I have not peen receiving net anywhere near $50,000 a year for working. . . . Ohbr $309.36 was left for my use out of my 1644 wages. . . . Why should I permit the company to pay out $50,000 a year to benefit me by only $309,367” Let me make haste to say that I am not sorry for Uncle Frank. He will be all right; he has some other money. I am not worried about his employees either. The faithful work­ ers among them will be able to retire in .dignified comfort. My only concern is over men who, next year or the next, may hunt jobs and not find them; jobs Uncle Frank would like to offer but can’t Inside Figures Here is another enlightening pas­ sage from his statement: "Perhaps you wonder why my net realization from wages has been so small. The answer lies in the extremely high Income tax rates which apply to my wages, added as they are to my oth­ er income, and to the fact Biat I must pay not only federal income taxes but also state income taxes.” This man is not Bie only big-com- pany official in the country who has cut a lordly income to less than 10 cents a month. Why do they do it? Because their big salaries benefit them so little and cost their firms so much. My young friend who started last fall to work his way through college, running a steam dishwasher four hours a day, real­ ized more net from his salary than this $50,000 executive. Who Is Injured? Men who cut off big salaries have other income. That’s why their tax rates are so high. That’s why they can afford to spurn a salary. But if they must decline the proceeds of their own Invested earnings, one thing is sure: They will not invest further earnings to start new ven­ tures or expand old rates. Invest- ments hi business are not safe, nev­ er have been. Any investment is a risk. Men with money invest it only when Btey believe, to the best of Bieir judgment, that it will pay rea­ sonable returns. Now they are sure of only one thing: Nearly every­ thing an investment earns will be taxed away from them. Will they Invest in new enterprises? No. Then where will our returning service men find work? Unless present tax laws are changed soon, they will find it on a huge W. P. A. to the dis­ grace of our free America.

I want to name just a few things that are going on in our churches today that they call religion. They are religion, but religion of the de­ vil. And thev are far from salva. tion, ard I don’t mean the com­ mon salvation either. I’m talking about the Salvation of Jesus Christ ,-—that Salvation that was made possible by the death of Christ on the ctoss, and it is through His shed blood that we obtain this only trne Salvation. I want to first say that I know we have a few real ministers of the gospel, preachers that are called of God and ordained of Him to preach His everlasting gospel, and they are doing it too. I want to say just a little about the false ministers, the man that walks behind the sacred desk and places himself in a ceitain position that he would appear just right be­ fore his congregation. Then he has a special by one of his Sunday school teachers, who had attended a so.called "Christian social’’ the night before, and had won the prize In a card game, and probably drank more cocktails than any one at the sacial. Then she spreads her sheet music before her eyes and begins with a noise that would scare any pack of hounds off of a fox trail. Then the congregation cheers till their hands are sore. Then the minister (so-called I opens the holy book with unclean hands, and there is his sermon that he has ordered from some publishing com. pany, and the one that had written it would perhaps deny that Christ was born or the virgin Mary. Well, here he goes, looking on his paper two-thtrds of the time and looking over his congregation the other third of the time with that saintly look like Judas had on his face when he kissed the Saviour with that betraying kiss. Then he tells his propie all about sience, then he goes on and tells about the mighty oceans, the great rivers, the earth, and just what it containe, then all about farming and just how to do it, never having had any experience on the farm at all. Then he turns another leaf, and tells about the different kinds of trees, flowers, an. imais, and the whale that couldn't swallow a man, and the little birds as they flit from tree to tree, never naming the blood of Christ, the only remedy for sin, and the only way from earth to glory. Jesus has told us in the last days, Perilous times would come our way Look how the church is going a- strav, Praise God, I’m looking for Him. Dear readers, if any of you Uke my articles, then drop me a line and tell me so, and perhaps I can do better next time. [We trust that there are but few preachers like the one described a bove by Mr, Crater. There are some sorry men in all professions, even in the ministry.

Plenty To Can, No Sugar1 Preaident Truman aad other high officials of the government are call- ing upon the American people to grow vegetables to full limit in: or­ der to help solve the food problem which will probably continue to bar* rass the nation’s housewives for. a long time. The government is also urgently requesting that as much fruit; as possible be canned and conserved. Fortunately this is a banner fruit year. The orchards will be bring­ ing heavily in a few days with ripen­ ing peaches and apples, plumbs, etc. Soon the blackberries will be ripe and other plentiful and useful creeps But it takes sugar to can fruit! And there is either none at all.: or verv little of it. for this purpose which the government is anxiously asking them to do. Federal wartime agencies which are handling this commodity, or rether manhandling it, start out by allowing a ration of 20 pounds for each individual of sugar for canning purposes. Large numbers of people got this amount. Large numbers did not, unfortunately postponing their purchases until later on in the sea­ son. Then with amazing suddenness came an order trom the OPA cut- ting sugar quota to 15 pounds per person. Following this “directive” came another from the OPA announcing that on the basis of sugar stocks a vailable onlv five pounds per person could be allowed for canning. Hardly had this order been re­ ceived and announced when the OPA, in its orders blared forth the an­ nouncement that for large areas of the country even the pittance of five pounds per person of sugar for can- ning could not be allowed. Now the canning, season is upon us, coming just at the time when the OPA prohibits the people from ob­ taining any sugar at all for this pur­ pose. It is a serious, irritating and a- stounding come-off. The American public doesn’t un derstand it. And, for that m atter, it would be rathe an assuption to believe that the OPA and other government a gencies. handling food' understand what they a doing or what the real status of the BUgar Btock is. What has become of all the sugar that was reporteded in stock early last fall? Nation’s Business, a business organ of the United States Chamber of Commerce, published last October the statement that the Credit Com­ modity Corporation alone had on hand 4.520.490,000 pounds of sugar, exclusive of the amount necessary for the military supplies. What’s happened to this moun­ tain of sweetness in the meantime? Does the War Food Administra­ tion know? It should know! Does the OPA know? It should know! Do any of the other dozen or so agencies that have had a hand in food supplies of the nation have an idea? Thev should have! One quite obvious reason that the sugar situation has gone entirely haywire is that the government has been maintaining red'tape wormish agencies taat either didn’t know what they are supposed fo do or didn’t knowhow to do it. It is an abominable mess!—Char­ lotte Observer. Guernsey Cow Sets Record Peterborough, N. H.—The fifth deughter of the registered Guernsey sire, Clear Springs’ Royal Court owned by.. J. C. Sanford & P. B Blackwelder, Twin Brook Farm, Mocksviile, N C , has completed an official Herd -Improvement record.

This record was supervised by North Carolina State College and re­ ported to The American Guernsey Cattle' Club for approval and publi­ cation. Commandeering Mr. Hoover President Truman has moved well and wisely in calling former presid­ ent Hoover for White House an over­ all consultation about food problems in Europe. Mr. Hoaver made an international name for the efficient manner in which he supervised the administra tion of food relief among the needy people of that continent after the last war. By virtue of this experience as well as by reason of his general knowledge of the international foed situation and all of its implications, he is probably the most practically informed man in the' country on this question and is singularly equiped to advise President Truman on this complex problem. This step on his part is another mark of his deep earnestness and sin­ cerity in trying to the utmost of bis capocities. He is searching for the best authorities on all the many* sided problems of State with which he is beset for aid to this good end. Whatever the American people may think of and feel toward form­ er President Hoover, all who are well-informed and fair-minded will concede that he has a uniquely in­ telligent gtasp of international enig­ mas and that, having always been of an intensely practical and business­ like mind, his views will be advanced by whatever his experience and knowledge would dictate It is altogether possible that Mr. Truman may decide that the person­ al and active services of Mr. Hoover in facing the delicate and tremend­ ous problems involved in the food crisis in Europe can wiselv be utili­ zed to the advantage of bis countrv at this time as well as to the solution of the c' aotic food crisis on the con­ tinent. In that event, the Presidentshould have the honest and sincere 1 support of tbe American people without regard to their political labels or pre­ judices. America is confronted today as a nation with responsibilities of leader­ ship unmatched in all times by any other internatimal crisis. President Truman needs the best minds available in helping and ad­ vising him as the wisest man mea­ sures to adopt and the most Intelli- get courses to pursue. If such help and advice can more readily be found among outstanding leaders of the Republican partyy, the President should have no reser­ vation in laying bis hands upon tbe such talent and making full use of it. Nor should he be heckltd by nar­ rowminded criticism adopting such a policy!—Charlotte Observer.

Anvil choruses of consumers con­ tinue to arise throughout the coun­ try apropos the tightaned sugar ra­ tions. The customers, being Ameri­ can. have a very sweet tooth. They want their sugar. Now that Sum­ mer, with all its fruits and berries, is at the threshhold of the great A- merican home, Mrs. Housewife feels “let down” with her 50 per cent cut in canning and preserving sugar al- allowance. Critical consumers aver that the Government should have encouraged larger sugar production in Florida, Loui8irna and the beet areas of the West, that it should not have made it necessary for Cuba to restr ct its crop. They insist that there has been much bungling in sugar ra­ tioning. Some demand, that prices be adjusted in a manner to encour­ age greater home production, and that steps be taken to bring in sugar from the Phiilippiness. And so on. But the point is that while the mistakes, if any, that have been made in handling the sugar situa­ tion, cannot be remedied overnight, the suggested rtmedies in nearly every instance are of tbe long-range variety. This means that they can have but little if anv effect upon the sugar allotments for the Summer season of 1945. which is now almost upon us Tbe only thing, apparent­ ly, which can be done about the cur­ rent sugar shortage is to see to it that the available supplies are prop­ erly. equitably, divided.

C- O KBW Austria Now Under United States Army Control Washington, D. C. RURAL HOSPITALS TO GET SURPLUS WASHINGTON. — Rural hospitals and health centers can look for a major share oi the hundreds of mil­ lions of dollars of medical equip­ ment to be released by the army and the navy. A policy has finally been worked out at the surplus prop­ erty board to assure release of this material for public health use, first in areas that have no existing facili­ ties, second in areas which have in­ sufficient facilities. So great is the need of rural and small-town hos­ pitals and clinics that there will be little equipment left for replacement. This policy was achieved only aft­ er a long and bitter dispute between the surplus property board and Dr. Morris Fishbein, editor of the Jour­ nal of the American Medical Asso­ ciation. Fishbein, in whose journal advertise the largest makers of med­ ical equipment, had urged that this vast volume of surplus material not be released at once. Instead, he wanted it stored and released gradually in small quanti­ ties in order not to upset the market for manufacturers of medical goods. In addition, Fishbein insisted that huge quantities of certain supplies, such as bandages, could not be used because they differed somewhat from accepted standard sizes. However, in a lengthy session at the office of U. S. Surgeon Genei al Thomas Parran, Dr. Fishbein final­ ly was won over and even agreed to serve on the overall board which will recommend on the disposal of med­ ical supplies. Three types of equipment will be distributed—public health supplies, surgical and therapeutic instru­ ments, and pharmaceuticals. A board of public officials and physi­ cians headed by Dr. Parran will rec­ ommend their allocation to Fedeial Security Chairman Paul McNutt, who will work through the surplus property board. Actual allocation of the supplies within the states will rest with state boards to be com­ posed of various federal government and state medical officials. Note — Federal officials are worried lest the state hoards be­ come a weak link in the setup. They fear that, in areas of great­ est need, state groups will nof be anxious to aid in the equip­ ping of Negro clinics and hos-. pitals. Therefore, an effort will be made to work out rigid re­ quirements in Washington. No building program is yet ar­ ranged to go along with the dis­ posal of medical supplies, though every effort will be made to convert army buildings into hospitals and clinics. • * * CHURCHILL’S NEEDLING Backstage fact about the Joe Da­ vies pilgrimage to London is that originally he was picked to go to Moscow for an intimate talk with Stalin, but his doctor forbade it. Davies was slated for the Moscow trip because he is the only U. S. ambassador since the United States recognized Russia who has been welcome at the Kremlin. This was primarily due to Joe’s book, “Mis­ sion to Moscow” and the film by the same name, which gave a sym­ pathetic portrayal of Soviet prog­ ress. Therefore, it was planned to have him impress on Stalin that re­ cent diplomatic snarls had alienat­ ed American public opinion. When Davies was unable to go to Moscow, it was decided that Harry Hopkins should do the job instead; while Davies would go to London and urge Chiuchill to stop needling I Russia. This latter job is considered al­ most as important as the Hopkins' trip to Moscow. For several White House advisers are convinced that Churchill, always critical of the Russians, delights in anything which keeps the United States and the So­ viet in a state of mutual suspicion. The British diplomatic game for a hundred years has been to balance two powers off against each other. Therefore U.S.-U.S.S.R. rivalry is right down Churchill’s alley. That is why Joe Davies is empow­ ered to pull no punches in telling ChurchiiI that balance-of-power needling is not appreciated in Wash­ington.• * * CAPITAL CHAFF C When French statesmen Bonnet and Bidault appeared at the While House, President Truman and staff were so confident the discussion would be friendly that Truman’s statement was prepared before the conference.

Va., has found a means of beat­ ing the coal shortage. With aid of sister and girl friend, he helps him­ self to coal without cost. A SURPRISING number of Iet- ters have come to this desk asking about the deal wherein Mort Cooper of the Cardinals was traded to the Boston Braves. Our only answer to these queries is that baseball is strictly a business. For example the Cooper brothers, Mort and Walker, a s a battery, would have been cheap at $40,000 a year to The Y ankees or the G iants, for two exam ples. But they happened to belong to the C ardinals, who could afford no such outlay with the fan support St Louis gives its ball clubs. In the way of attendance, St. Louis is only a fair baseball city. It was none too hot last season with two pennant winners. The attendance figures prove all this. It isn’t a m atter of argument. - So when a pitcher such as Mort Cooper comes along and happens to be St. Louis property, he is out of luck. Affiliated with another club he might get almost double the price St. Louis can pay him. Mort Cooper, however, used bad judgment in the way he handled his side of the argument. He should never have left Billy Southworth stranded, without any warning. For Southworth is a square shooter, who is for his men. Not Very Smart One of the main tangles in base­ ball is that few club owners are smart, and most ball players are in the same fix. There is more than a little smartness on the field in base­ ball, but not much smartness off the field. This includes the players and the owners. Ball players like to win. And yet many good ones have to go to sure second division or tail end teams, where they get less money and are usually overlooked. They get all the worst of it. But if all the good ball players went to New York, Detroit, Brooklyn and the better paying cities, there would be no big leagues as the setup exists today. There should be a new distribu­ tion of baseball cities. There are cer­ tain towns that can’t handle two big league teams. St. Louis is one. Maybe Boston is another. Certainly such cities as Los Angeles and Balti­ more could do a far better job in the way of supporting crowds. De­ troit could handle two big league clubs, but the American League wants no National League competi­ tion. It is all badly muddled. • • • Those Early Days A few days ago we ran into an old pal, who at the age of 86 , is still as spry as two Mexican jump­ ing beans. He is the sole survivor of the old St. Louis Browns who won four pennants in a row in 1885 to ’88 . Arlie Latham, as an umpire, was something on the order of Tim Hurst and Silk O’Loughlin. I asked Arlie a few days ago who was the best ball player he worked with in those earlier days. , “He was a kid named Ty Cobb, playing with Augusta,” Arlie said. “He was always crowding the plate, so I couldn’t see it. He was always ready to fight with everybody for his rights, including the umpires and the other ball players. He was only 17 or 18 years old. But he could do everything — hit, run, field and win ball games. He’d lay down a bunt and beat it out. He’d steal two bases. Then he’d hit a triple — and try to steal home. 'To most of us umpires, he was a pest. We didn’t have enough eyes to follow him. That was the best minor league team I ever saw — T y Cobb, Eddie Cicotte, Nap Rucker, Ducky Holmes —and a few more. And none of them brought over $750. Cobb was one of the cheaper sales—to Detroit.” This reminded me of the older days in the South when I was called on, as a young sportswriter in Nash­ ville, to recommend a few south­ ern leaguers. My four selections at that time were Joe Jackson, with New Orleans, Jake Daubert with Nashville, Tris Speaker with Little Rock and Nap Rucker with Augusta. Tlje Brooklyn club refused to pay $5,000 for Joe Jackson, the greatest natural hitter that ever lived. The Cleveland club sent for Jake Daubert—and turned him back be­ cause he couldn’t hit. He only led the National League in hitting in 1913 and 1914, with Brooklyn — one of the best hitters the National League has ever known. And Cleve­ land needed a first baseman badly. But Daubert couldn’t hit. ‘Crude,’ hut Great Ab Powell said Nap Rucker was too crude. That’s what they said about Rube Waddell, Shuflfiin’ Phil Douglass, Dizzy Dean, Bugs Ray­ mond and Grover Qeveland Alexan­ der. A trifle crude—Fll admit. But I’d like to own a ball club with those five pitchers. So would you, if you knew anything about baseball. Most of these were not heroic characters. But when they stepped into the box, a majority of the big hitters of their day wanted to throw their bats away. Classified Department BUSINESS & INVEST. OPPOR. A fte r th e W ar W hat?

Store CHAPTER X “What good’s the corpse of any tnan?” Lee Gledhill asked. “No, I 'don’t want him. Leave him stay where he lays.” “Where you got off the trail, you bull-headed bazoop,” Melody said, “is on this here idee I killed him. I never done so. Because he ain’t daid. He’s a hell of a sight more alive than one of us is going to be, if you keep on like you been. Blame it,” he finished, “I'm getting tired of this!” “Then how come you got his sad­dle?” “I got it off’n his girl, damn it.” Lee Gledhill was beginning to glare with that look of outrage which comes to a man who is becoming bewildered, and bitterly resents it. “I’m supposed to think she was wearin’ it?” “I put it on Harry—on my pony— as a favor. The idee was maybe it would fool some jackass like you, long enough for Monte to get away. But I’m blamed if I’ll go through with it no more. If I’d of knowed the botheration this here was going to be, I wouldn’t of fetched the whole thing with a prod-pole.” Lee was looking at Melody weird­ ly, now. “How well do you know Monte Jarrad?” “Don’t know him any. I never seen him, yet.” “So you aim to have me think—” Lee GledhilTs voice was strange— “you w ant. me to think—you was damn fool enough to let some girl talk you into a thing like this here? You figure I’ll believe that such a damn fool could ever have got his full growth?” Melody thought he had him there. “Here I be,” he said, “ain’t I?” Lee Gledhill said, looking almost frightened, “I never listened to noth­ ing like this.” He turned cadgy again. “What’s the name of this girl?” “Monte’s girl? Cherry de Long- pre.” “That’s her name, all right," Gled- hill admitted, worse bothered than before. “Monte spoke ft frequent.” He stared hard at Melody as if look­ ing at an incredible, perhaps dan­ gerous monstrosity. “I don’t be­ lieve you, natcherly,” he said. “It ain’t in human reach to swaller no such a lie as that lie is. But you never killed him. That I know, now.” They did not have to ride far, as it worked out. Cherry de Longpre was already nearing Payneville, powdering the road. As Melody and his captor topped a long rise, a tower of dust was boiling toward them. Lee Gledhill drew Melody off the road into the brush; but Melody almost immedi­ ately recognized the de Longpre buckboard, with Cherry driving, and George Fury beside her on the seat. George’s horse was tied on behind. Melody was able to apprise Lee Gledhill in time for Lee to flag the buckboard. Cherry had a hard time pulling down the hard-run team, but got them stopped a hundred yards beyond. Her hands kept tensing and slackening the lines, to hold the re­ bellious horses, and she looked at Melody and Lee with poker-faced questioning as they came up. “Well?” Lee ‘Gledhill took a good look at George Fury, then reached over and took Melody’s gun out of his chaps pocket. He stuck it into the loose top of his own boot. George stayed quiet, but his eyes were bright and awake, like a watching owl. “You again, huh?” Melody said to George. George looked sheepish. “I come back,” he grunted. Lee Gledhill went to the buck­ board wheel, backing his horse around in such a way that he could watch both Melody Jones and George Fury at the same time. “Your name Cherry de Longpre?" “Might be,” Cherry said sharply, like the snap of fingers. “Take off your hat, if you want to talk to me!” Lee Gledhill hesitated, annoyed that she should catch-him up, and make a thing of it, when he was thinking about something else. Sniff- sneer. Sulkily he obeyed, and start­ ed over.“You maybe heard of Lee Gled­ hill,” he said. “Uh huh—I see you have.”“Anybody’s heard of him,” said Cherry noncommittally. “There’s handbills out, even, offering a re­ ward.”A faint insolence came into Gled- hill’s tone. “Been readin’, huh? AU right. Good. Because I’m him. And seein’s you study up every handbUl you see, I reckon you know I side- ride Monte Jarrad.” “You might even be named Luke Packer, and work for the express company,” Cherry said, with a lump of ice in every word.' Le M AY W .N U S E L E S S c o^t-ALAN “AU right,” Lee said again. “Nev­ er mind who I be. It don’t change what I’m here for, any. I want to ask you one thing. What became of Monte Jarrad?” Her hands were' motionless now, and the whole girl was motionless; she watched the riders sidelong, and for moments did not seem to breathe. “I suppose I must have seen him about twice in three years,” she said at last. She looked at Melody with a hard, blank stare. “Who’s that you’ye got there?” Lee Gledhfll studied her steadily" for a long space, He' was looking at her squarely now, holding George Fury in discount. “You mean to teU me,” he said slowly, queerly, “you set there and teU. me—you don’t know—you don’t know Who this man is?” Cherry de Longpre looked Melody Jones straight in the eyes, but her own eyes were blank. There' was no message in them, either, any more than he could have found in a couple of puddles of gray rain. “I never saw him before in aU my life.” Melody Jones stared at Cherry de Longpre unbeUevingly.— Cherry looked sad and dreamy, showing no sign of tension. “Yew befewzled numpus!” George Fury shouted at GledhiU. “Has ev­ erybody gone crazy here but me?” “Who the heU is this?” GledhiU demanded of Cherry. He kept his gun on George Fury, and the comer of his eye upon Melody. Cherry looked at GledhiU with os­ tentatious significance, and tapped her forehead. "Different,” she told him. “Confused like, but helpless.” “Never you mind her,” , George shouted at GledhiU. “She’s in it ¥ ■ Cherry had a hard time pulling down the hard-run team. with the rest. Monte Jarrad is aUve and kicking, what’s left ofhiml He’s layin’ low in a hide-out, nursin’ a wownd—and I can show you where he be!” It stirred up Lee GledhilL “How far away?” “ ’Tain’t so fur but what we can make it in time to eat!” Melody started to say, “Don’t pay any attention to the old—” “Shut up!” Lee stopped him. To George he said, “Take the lines, Mister. You’re on your way. . . .” Lee GledhiU kept them herded to­ gether when they dismounted at the Busted Nose. “Once and for aU,” George said to Melody, “I want you to take note who does the thinking here. I figured out where Monte is by using my head. I know where he’s hid, and even how to git in it. He’s been here the huU time, while you was mess­ ing around blind. And I’ve knowed thet sence we first rode in!” “Shut up,” Lee told him. “You’re aU going to be in trouble in about two jerks!” George looked him over with slow dispraise; then led the way to the bam. Cherry de Longpre stood in the broad doorway, silhouetted against the sunUght. She spoke directly to Lee GledhiU, ignoring the others. “There’s coffee on the back of the stove,” she told him. Her words sounded tired and subdued. “I’ll show you the last word I got from Monte, if that wfll be any help.” Lee GledhiU considered for a long time, looking poker-faced from one to another of them. “AU right,” he said at last. “Come on in the house,” Cherry said, and led the way. On the gallery she held the broken screen door open for them whfle GledhiU made Melody Jones and George Ftnry precede him into the kitchen, and' the chained bear cub scrabbled at her boots, unnoticed. Cherry stepped through the door­ way after Lee GledhiU; and for a moment, because he was watching the others, his back was turned. Cherry’s right hand reached into the comer by the door where her !riding clothes. By that time Melody ijhad saddled her round-beUied old jroan, and he held it for her to mount. Cherry came dose to the animal, Uien stood hesitating. “What you aim to do?” “This time I know you’re leaving the country! I know because I’m going with you and see that you do.” "You think a heap of that Monte jigger, don’t you?” She didn’t answer him. Melody looked depressed. "Okay," he decided. “You love him, then.” “I always thought I did. Since I was fourteen years old.” “And nothing he done ever changed it,” Melody kept on. “I don’t change easy,” Cherry said. “Who ever, loved a man for what he did, anyway? That’s got nothing to do with it. If it did, the population of this country would die out quick!” Cherry stole a !quick glance at him; but there was no more bitter­ ness in his face than there had been in his tone. She spoke in a mono­ tone, not looking at him. “There’s one other thing I want you to do. Not now—sometime, aft­ er aU this has blown over. I want you to come back here then, and turn up the express company’s strongbox. I want you to give it back to the people it belongs to.” "Cain’t.” “I can’t make you do it, if you won’t.” “ ’Tain’t th at I jest don’t know where it’s at.” “I’m going to show you.” He turned and looked at her, but she did not meet his eyes. “Monte told me where it is,” she said. “He told me when,he thought he was going, to die. There’s an old, old cabin that near everybody has for­ got. Monte’s used it before; but he’ll never use it again. It has dobe walls, four feet through. There’s a slab sill to the only window. Once when Monte was hiding out, he dug a cache in the wall, under that slab. It’s near big enough to hide a man, if a man could breathe in there. And that’s where the strongbox is, with more money in it than you ever saw in your life. So I guess you know I trust you, now.” “Where did you say this cabin—” “I’m taking you there.” They rode a mile in silence. The slow dusk of the mountain country was closing in. “I suppose,” Melody said at last, “you’ll be going back to the Busted Nose, then, after you show me where it’s at.” “I don’t know. And I don’t care much. I’m sick of the whole for­ saken tiling. But I’m going to see. you fetched out of this, before I do anything else.” “Whut? Why?” “Because you don’t know how to take care of yourself, or what’s good for you—that’s why!” "I don’t know why,” Melody said, “you set yourself to all this trouble, now.” There was bitterness in Cherry’s voice, not Kis. “I don’t blame you for saying that,” Cherry said. “If ever a man had a right to get sarcastic; you’re it.”“I didn’t mean it that way.” Cherry angered unaccountably. “You never mean anything,” she lashed at him. “You never com­ plain about anything, or demand anything, or let out a holler—butter wouldn’t melt in your teeth! But I know what you’re thinking, just the same!” “I carved his name on a tomb­ stone,” she whimpered, “and dropped it square on top of you! How was I to know you wouldn’t run? You spoiled everything just be­ cause you wouldn’t run. But I should have told you. I should have told you what I was trying to do, so you could have had open eyes.” Her voice sounded so queer that he leaned forward over his saddle horn to peer into her face; and he saw that she was crying. “You’d of been wrong,” Melody said gravely, “to of so done. Be­ cause I’d of told you to go chase a sting-bee, and I’d of rode on.” “I wish I was dead!” Cherry burst out hysterically. “Don’t feel that way," Melody consoled her. “I wouldn’t of missed it.” (TO BE CONTINUED) that time in the writings of Paul and Peter which make up our lesson to­ day, but even those are full of in­ struction and inspiration. The church appears here as it went on: I. Fighting the Good Fight of Faith (I Tim. 6:11-16). In the letter to Timothy, the Holy Spirit used Paul to instruct the early church regarding its life in the midst of an unbelieving world. In the verses immediately preced­ ing our lesson we find a solemn warning against the wrong attitude of heart toward worldly possessions. “Godliness with contentment” is de­ clared to be great gain. But there is more to Christianity than inward grace, for that must show itself in daily fighting “the !good fight of faith.” That is done in three ways: I. By godly living (v. 11). Be­ lievers are to flee those things which hinder spiritual progress, and !give themselves to the cultivation of graces of a true Christian life. Space does not permit discussion of these fine virtues of the faithful follower of Christ, but note how tre­ mendously effective they could be (yes, and are today) against pagan­ ism. It is so true that the best argu­ ment for Christianity is a Christian, but he must be a real one. . 2. In holy warfare (v. 12). Living for Christ is not accomplished by !sitting in a spiritual rocking chair ■while the enemy is on the attack. !No indeed. There is a good fight to be waged, both personally and as a ■body of believers. ' “The Son of God goes forth to •war” against evil in our day. “Who follows in His train?” Thaiik God, {there are those who are on the battle line for God, but they need reinforcements. Who will volunteer !today? 3. With blessed expectation (w . 13-16). The soldier is ready to bear the “blood, sweat, and tears” of deadly conflict because he looks for victory. The soldier of Christ has a sure hope, for he follows Jesus Christ, already victorious over death, and one day soon to appear again as King of ltings and Lord of lords. In view of that expectation, the Christian is to live a consistent, clean and irreproachable life. And why not? If we look for the glori­ ous and blessed and only Potentate, should we not be ready? H. Meeting the Fiery Trial of Per­ secution (I Pet. 4:12-16). As Peter comforted the sorely tried believers in the early church, he urged them to meet their perse­ cutions: I. Without confusion (v. 12). We should expect trials in this world; yes, severe, fiery trials. Such things are common to all mankind, and the Christian should not expect to escape. To them, such trials are real tests of their faith, an opportunity to show to the unbelieving world that God is able to deliver those who put their trust in Him! To be forewarned is to be fore­ armed. “Think it not strange con­ cerning the fiery trial.” 2. With exceeding joy (w . 13-15). The believer is not to be ashamed of the troubles he bears for Christ’s sake. A glory rests upon the one who is privileged to be a "par­ taker of Christ’s suffering” (v. 14) as he stands with Him who was “a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief” (Isa. 53:3). Note that the believer is not to do anything which would justify others in making him suffer. It is a dis­ grace, a shame, which injures the cause of Christ, when a believer has to suffer because he has broken the law, or because he is “a busybody (R. V. “meddler”) in other men’s matters.” 3. For the glory of God (v. 16). The entire life of the believer should be lived for God’s glory. If, then, he is called to pass through trials or to be persecuted for his faith, that, too, is something to be so borne as to glorify God. The follower of Christ does not hang his head in shame as the diffi­ culties of life come upon him. He trusts God, and by his poise and grace in the midst of difficult cir- cumstances, declares to all the W rld that God Is able to deliver, Pretty Mother and Daughter Bonnets p 8 7 5 ,I Dutch Bonnet .

The story of his life and •of !(he 16 children he begot, and of 3us .grandchildren, is one of the fas- oiiiEting sagas of the theater. SfearIy 70 years ago a 12-year-old Soj' was left an orphan in a little ■’Spanish village. His father had been ;»-well-to-do land owner; but there arers crooked lawyers in Spain even <&eb , as everywhere else, and the 'Sag found himself done out of his Szieritance and left penniless to sSsce the world. That boy was An- 3ds2s Cansino. ®u{ o n H i s O w n Antonio set out for Seville, and vSwre he found himself a job as S^Sper to a blacksmith. Little An- 3bi£b liked to dance, and to play the SaStar. When night came Antonio !Araci out for the water front cafes, anti there he danced again—for pen- Ai that time the famous Imperia I her rival, La Companaral were their heyday, and there a popular male dancer, Fer- Feliz. Young Antonio into the wings to watch SSiesr performances and in time Mafle their acquaintance. He had 'am ingratiating manner, and before Snug jhe was having lessons from all t e of them.Starting Up the Ladder. Sd at 15 Antonio said, goodby to 3ss forge. A theater manager had aseas him dance and had recognized sussing star. Within a year Antonio 'x u famous throughout Spain. He a house of his own, servants a carriage. At 17 he married. M 38 he was a father. A London producer happened to be •msSfing Spain and watched Antonio Cssoino at a performance in UEa2nd. He offered a contract for a atada’s engagement in London at a ijgm s that couldn’t be turned down. 'JSa month was extended to a year, tsnS by that time Antonio was reap- Sog a fortune. Paris followed and ifeia tours of Europe and South AgifTica. A l the Cansino fortune grew, the was growing, too. At the, arge rf 35 Antonio had no less than 36 children. He was rich and his ^mSe and children wanted him at tonne. To the chagrin of theatrical aasnagers, he announced his retire- Emsal from the stage. S i e s e r T o o Y o a n g SiS of the Cansino children were SragBt to dance by their father al- m stet as soon as they could walk. dancers begged Cansino for issboction, so he opened a school Iadrid. When DiaghiIey took the Sbffiet Busse to the Spanish capital w seral of the stars took lessons fern Cansino, among them Leon- S e Massine. HSte Cansino children all enjoyed Sieat success. They toured Europe, ifi&aca, North and South America, todtralia. Edouardo, Rita Hay- war&’s father, took Latin America siorm. Antonio II was a sensa- in Europe and Australia. Jose, &&S&, Paco, Elissa, and the others ,aE Sad their share of triumphs. 'C a lifo r n ia , H e r e W e C o m e IKhen Rita was 16 she came to SaEforaia with her parents, the SSoaardo Cansinos. The movie bug gst Iierr but good. She daiiced and gBqfsd bit parts in dozens of pic- iimss, and then came her big chance as “Blood and Sand,” opposite Ty- amu Power. You know the rest of .IfesS story. Her father and mother i&me -been retired from the stage -3 a t some years, and Rita’s father is p e rn working at Douglas because he IsCs two sons at the front. , H u d now the first Antonio, the pa- aasBclk of them all, is here.

A cool and com­ fortable room, set with a table that suggests- coolness, Will be much more comfortable around. Mother would do best to plan a meal that is nourishing but not too hearty. The main dish and vegeta­ bles may be warm, but dessert and salad should be icy cold' to suggest that summer was kept in mind dur­ ing the planning of the menu. If the bulk of the actual cooking is done during the cool mornings, then the kitchen can retain some semblance of coolness during the evening hours. Such things as cook­ ing filling for pies, making cookies or cake or cooking vegetables for a salad can be prepared “Before the sun rises high in the sky and sends the temperature to the highest rungs of the thermometer. Main entrees, if broiled, will also help during hot weather. They take only a few minutes to cook, like this low-point grill: Hambnrger Grill. (Serves 6) I pound hamburger Vz onion, grated, if desired 1 teaspoon salt Ys teaspoon pepper 4 slices bacon 2 large bananas I tablespoon lemon juice Combine meat, onion, salt and pepper. Mix well. Porm into 4 cakes about % inch thick. Ar­ range strips of bacon on broiling rack. Broil slow­ ly until brown, turning when nec­ essary. Drain on un'glazed paper while other food broils. Arrange meat cakes on rack. Brush bananas with lemon juice and place alongside meat. BroU until meat is browned. To serve, ar­ range hamburgers on • individual serving plates. Top each with a strip of bacon and place broiled ba­ nana slice at each side. Potato chips and tomato cucumber salad may be served with the grill. Chicken is delectable when cooked a la king, but it’s invitingly cool when served molded. Then it can be sliced and served garnished with quartered hard-boiled eggs and to­ mato wedges: Molded Chicken a la King. (Serves 8 ) 4 tablespoons butter or sabstitnte !4 cnp chopped green pepper Yi cap sliced mushrooms I cap milk, scalded Yi cnp hot chicken stock - H cap chopped pimiento 1 cup diced cooked chicken 4 egg yolks 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 tablespoon gelatin 2 tablespoons cold .water Lynn Says Perfect Salads: You’ll like or­ anges sliced or sectioned and rolled in shredded coconut on let­ tuce cups. Peach or apricot halves placed on top of shredded cabbage which is rich in vitamin C is a delightful salad for .hot weather eajing.

Unmold and gapiisb.witti hard-cooked eggs quar­ tered, tomato wedges and parley. One"of the important points' in cooking fish is to avoid overcooking. Here is a dish that can be turned out in less than half an hour: Mackerel With Bacon and Onions. (Serves 4) aA pound cleaned fillets of mackerel Salt and pepper 1 cup sliced onions 4 tablespoons butter or drippings Yi cap soft bread crumbs 2 slices crisp bacon, broiled Separate fillets and arrange in greased, shallow: baking dish.

Bake in-a hot (400-degree) oven until fish is done and crumbs are browned, about 15 minutes. Hot evenings sometimes call for hearty main dish salads. Use a good protein food as a base so that it will be nourishing enough even for so-o big appetites. Here are two good suggestions: Baked Bean and Egg Salad. (Serves 6 ) 1 medium sized can of baked beans 4 sweet pickles, chopped 3 hard-cooked eggs, sliced (re­ serve 6 slices for garnishing) Yt cup chopped celery 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion I teaspoon salt 3 to 4 tablespoons mayonnaise Chill beans until cold.

OPENING FRUIT JARS EASY WHEN YOU KNOW HOW So you can’t get ’em open? WeU maybe you thought that circular With the Jars was advertising m at­ ter and threw it away without read­ ing. Don’t worry, we will tell you about opening jars and sealing them too, because chances are that part of the trouble with opening is due to failure to follow instructions for sealing. Surely you know about sterilizing everything, leaving plenty of head space; and having the rub­ bers wet. So we will skip that part. . There are two types of home can­ ning jars, and all have a trade name lettered in the side. The ones with screw-thread necks are Masons. Those with glass lids held in place with wire bails are lightning type or Ideals.Mason jars are used with one- piece zinc caps and rubber rings, or with two-piece metal vacuum seals, or with glass top seal caps. The glass, top seal is sometimes called a three-piece cap because it is made up of glass lid, rubber ring and metal band. When sealing a Mason Jar with zinc cap, place a rubber flat on the sealing surface (you may call it shoulder or ledge), screw the zinc cap down tight, then turn it back about half an inch. This is done to prevent steam forcing the rubber out of place or causing the cap to bulge. The cap is screwed tight as soon as the jar is taken out of the canner. Use Pliers to Open Jar The easiest way to get the jar open is to use pliers to pull the rub­ ber out. Small dime store pliers are best for this because friend husband won’t be tempted to borrow them when he has to fix the fence. If you have no pliers, the next best way is to run the sharp point of a knife un­ der (not over) the rubber, wiggle the knife sidewise (not up and down), then unscrew the cap. If you can’t manage this, turn the Jar up­ side down in hot water for five min­ utes before unscrewing. When sealing Mason jars with Glass Top Seal Caps, put the rubber flat around the rim on the under side (top side has the name on it) of the Ud, then place the lid so the rubber lies flat between the top of Hie jar and the lid. Screw the metal band tight and then loosen by turning It back one-fourth turn. This band must be loose while the jars are in the canner. (Failure to keep this in mind has caused a lot of painful burns.) They are tightened after processing. The metal bands should be taken off the jars the next day after the canning is done. Tes, if the manufacturer’s instructions are followed, the jars will stay sealed without the bands. When ready to open, run the sharp point of a knife between the top of Hie jar and the rubber. Move knife sidewise as moving it up and down is likely to damage both jar and lid. Opening Vacuum Seals When using Mason jars with vac­ uum seals, place the lid white side down so that the sealing compound rests on top of the jar. Screw the metal band tight as it will go with ordinary hand pressure and leave it that way until the next day. Then take it off and leave it Mt. No, you don’t tighten Hie band again after processing. Metal lids, especially those which are siighHy rounded or domed, are flexible. The compound is softer Hian a jar rubber. The flexible Ud and soft compound per­ m it steam and air to seep out during processing. That’s why the bands are Hghtened before processing and need not be tightened again. When ready to open the jar, flip Hie lid off with a bottle opener, of punch a hole in it and pry it off. The hole is all right because vacuum seal lids should never be used a second time. When using a lightning type or Ideal jar, put the rubber flat on the sealing surface. Keep the lip out of the way. of the wires. Place the lid so that it rests on Hie rubber. Then pull or push the long wire up until it fits in the groove on top of Hie lid. Leave the short wire up while the jar is in the canner. Push it down against the side of the jar just as soon as you take the jar out of the canner. When ready to open, push the low­ er bail tw and the upper bail down, then pull the rubber out with pliers or rub the sharp point of a knife un­ der the rubber, but remember mov­ ing the knife up and down may chip the Jar or lid.

Heaven-Bound Train A. J. Crater. Albemarle. N. C. This heaven-bound train is the train of salvation. It is the only train that makes the run from earth to that beautiful land above. Do you want to spend your va­ cation in this laud where the - an­ gels sing so- sweetly, where the buildings are made of jasper, and the city is pure gold, like unto dear glass. There where the beautiful rleer of life is flowing, and where vou can rest under the shade of the evergreen trees forever? Jesusis the conductor on this train, and it is absolutely imposs­ ible to get inside this train without a ticket, and it is impossible to ob. tain a tieket without the blood of the lamb (Jesus), applied to- your heart and soul. And it Is impos. sible to have this blood applied to your heart and soul without being born again, and it is impossible to be born again without giving your all and all unreservedly to Christ, the conductor of this rrain of sal­ vation. Talk about an uncondit­ ional surrender from our enemies. That is just exactly what we have got to do. Without an . uncondlt ional surrender to God, our great leader, we will never enter Inside the train of salvation, and there fore never, no never enter this beautiful city of gold. This is no hang on train. No hoboes inside this train. Oh there are many that pretend they have tickets for this train, but not. so, for their train stops at beer joints, liquor stores, picture shows, swim­ ming pools, where both sexes go In together, and therefore creating a passion oi lust for each other. No, you can’t hang on outside this bea- veu-bound train because there are many tunnels on the road to heav en, and these tunnels just fit this train precisely, and if you are try­ ing to hang on the outside you will most certainly lose your life and soul. Now Christ comoleted this plan of salvation on Calvary when He was nailed to that cruel old cross. When the blood trickeled down bis nail pierced hands and feet hesaid, “ It is finished.” What was fin. ished? The plan of salvation. Now we are saved by believing In Him and following Him. We must do a lot of things that the average church member leaves off. But if we are on this heaven-bound train we will serve Him by and through serving humanity. This train trav­ els through many places that part of the church members won’t go. Let me name a few of the places where the passengers stop off. First, this train stops at the homes of the sick, and especially at your neigb. bor’s homes. The passengers go in and administers to the sick. If they are in need of food, medicine, wood or oil, they go down in their pockets and give their last dollar and say, "I’ll be seeing you soon.’’ Next, this train pulls up to some little log cabin, there the passen­ gers go in and have a talk with this poor widow woman as the lit. tie children stand around. They notice tbey are all very thinly clad and the weather is very cold. These passengers say, “ Well brethren and sisters, we see the need of these children and this widow, woman.” Then tbey all go in their pockets again and give of their means to warm the little bodies. Next, this train of salvation pulls out and makes its'next stop at some county home. Theie all passengers go In and, visit these old gentlemen and ladies. Yes, tbey shake bands with these old soldiers of the Cross and sing them some old songs the pa. tjeuts used to bear when they prere at home well: and hearty, and it makes them happy in their souls: Jesus said "If ye love me ye will keep my commandments.” "I was Donbt And Faith Rev. Walter E. Isenhrur. Hiddeoite. N. C. Doubt sees the obstacles— Faith sees the way; Doubt sees tbe darkest night— Faith sees the day; Doubt dreads to take a step— Faith soars on high; Doubt questions. “Who believes ?1 Faith answers, “I.” —Selected. Doubt and faith are oppositae. They dwell in different hearts. JThey travel in different directions. Faith says, “It can.” Doubt savs, "It can’t,” Faith lives fos God; doubt lives for Satan. Faith believes tbe Uible; doubt questions it. Faith prays and gets wonderful answers to prayer; doubt says that it isn’t worth anything to pray.' consequently gropes and grovels his way thru life without accomplishing anything good great and worth while. Faith sue ceeds, doubt fails. Faith risees; doubt sinks. Faith shines for &od; doubt lives in gloom and darkness. Faith accepts Christ and lives a beautiful, noble, helpful, successful Christian life; doubt accepts Volsare and lives a life of atheism and infi­ delity, amounting to nothing great, and finally dies unhonored and un­ sung. Two men live in the same com- munity. One lives a life of doubt, while tbe other lives a life of faith. Doubt doesn’t read nor heed the Bi* ble: doesn’t go to chursh; doesn’t believe in preyer, consequently never prays; doesn’t believe in supporting the Gospel with his means, hence lives a close, selfish, stingy life, He just exists. Cne day he dies. No* body mourns his departure. Nobody rises up and calls him blessed. No­ body is helped by tbe record he leaves behind. Nobody can take pat­ tern after him and live nobly, dio triumphantly and reach heaven. His followers fail and go to hell like he does. Alas! Alas! Faith is a Christian. He shines and shouts for God. He goes to church regulary, prays much, has victory in bis heart and soul, supports the Gos* pel faithfully with bis life and liber­ ally with bis means, wins souls for God and helps pilgrims on their jour­ ney heavenward. One day he de­ parts this life. He leaves a blessed influence behind. People rise up and call him blessed. They fake pattern after him, and some wonderful day expect to meet him in Heaven. Thank God, and praise His holv and match* less name, for FAITH. He will be wonderfully crowned a victor in Hev en forever. Now which do you re* present. Doubt or Faith? Ban On Whiskey Asked Gaffned S. C.— Curtailment of whiskey manufacture until after maturity of the current sugar crop in order to increase sugar supplies available for home canning was ur. ged in petitions circulated nere and in Blacksburg. Addressed to President Truman and Congress, the petitions called for support of "every man, woman and child In the United States in this movement” and urged that telegrams be dispatched tocongiess* man and tbe President from ever> section of tbe country. An X mark after your name means you owe us. sick and ye visited me, was naked and ye clothed me, hungry and ye give me drink, in prispn and ye ministered unto me.” Now, are we doing these things? If not, then let’s not say we are In this train, for we are not, bnt rid ing the devil’s ttain Many things I could mention a. bout tbis train of Salvation, but space won’t permit. Wbynot re. ceive a ticket for tbis train while they, are goirg free, though they will never be Ior sale. They won’t always -be available. This train will pass you by one-of these days for the last time. Better get a tick* et and board tbis train. Congressional Pay Htkes We’ve already hacl our say on huge Congressional salary increases at the time the House voted itself a $2,500 tax-free “expense allow, ance.” The Senate, fearful of public opinion, turned the proposi tion down as far as its own body was concerned, but since then a bill has been introduced to double their arnaul stipend—a 100 per cent raise, from $10,000 to #20.000 per annum. We grant that government em­ ployes and officials are entitled to reasonable pay raises to compensate for increased living costs. But they should not exceed those al­ lowed private citizens. At the pre sent civilians are limited to the ts per cent llLittle Steel” pav raise and most of them already have that. If Congress votes itself a 100 per cent pav raise it sets an ex ample that threatens to topple the whole price stabilization structure, for everyone else feels entitled to a boost of the same percentage. Here is how the Baltimore Sun looks at the issue: “At his press conference yester­ day, President Truman came out simultaneously for increasing the salaries of members of Congress from the present $10,000 a year, to between $15,000 and $25,000 and for retention of the Little Steel tormula which Is the backbone of the wage and salary stabilization program. Both endorsements are unobjec­ tionable by themselves, but taken together tbey make for a good deal ot inconsistency Under tbe wage and salary stabilization pro. gram, no firm In private industry would be allowed to increase tbe compensation of one of its employes or officers from $10,000 to $25,000 . An increase from $10,000 to $15,000 might be hard to get by the Trea­ sury, which has to approve srich changes. Yct Mr. Truman thinks it would be all right for Senators and Representatives to do for them* selves in tbe way of salaries what would be illegal for a private em­ ployer. “The wage and salary stabiliza­ tion program ought to continue, for it is one of the bulwarks we use in tbe fight against inflation. The question of congressional compen­ sation ought also to be considered at such time as its consideration will not conflict with anti Inflationary measuaes. ’(The highly dubious arrangements under which the House has voted itself $2,500 a year for expense money obviously is just a stop gap, and ought to be reconsidered very soon ) But the two questions can hardly be treat­ ed as if they were not part and par­ cel of the same general problem, and in so separating them, Presid­ ent has worked himself into his first inconsistency. .— Statesville Daily.

Altavista, Va, Davie Soldier Writes Germany, May 21. Dear Mr. Stroud:—Just a line to let yon know that Tve been receiving a copy of The Davle Record since being overseas as well as back in tbe States, and can truly say there’s nothing more like a letter from home than The Davie Record, and I’m sure every fellow in tbe service feels the same as I about yoor paper. I enjoy roost read* ing the letteis from fellows overseas. I guess everyone in Davie, and in all the States, celebrated May 8 th, in a big way, as that being Victory Dav here in burope. It was a great day, I’ll long remember May 8 th as Victory tay in Europe, and partly because it was my birthday also. I imagine the weather is nice in Davie now. pretty and warm. It’s been quite some time since I was in Davie, but I haven’t forgotten wbat it’s like back there. I’ve soen a lot of the world and some wonderful places, but there’s no place like good ole North Cirolina to me. There’s some nice countries here in Europe, but tbe weather is bad. It’s mostly cold, damp and rainy. I know this was a beau tifnl country before the war tore it up, but it isn’t a beautiful sight now, especi ally where the war hit hardest. I hope I can be back in Mocksville in the near future, now that this war over here has been won There’s a chance I might get back home soon, then there’s a chance I might not be there for some time. There’s still another war to be won before we can enjoy real peace. I hope the people back in the States realize that too. Sincerely. PFC. THOMAS SEAMON.

We Know Some Speaking of religion, I happen­ ed to be talking to a preacher the other day and we agreed on one thing and that' was that if we could stay in church all of the time that everybody could go to heaven. There are so many people who have religion only in church, .it don’t function when tbey get out in every day life. Really I don’t believe that kind amounts to a row of beans. Then there is another kind of reli­ gion, a lot of preachers have it. Its the kinds that makes you wear a long face, that shuts out all plea­ sures, all recreations and lets peo­ ple do nothing bnt sing and pray all tbe time. If a man's religiou won’t let him work aud won’t let him play and have some fun, mix and mingle with people and go a- bout In the natural way in life, then his religion is mighty poor I think.—Cbairtown News.

C. Nazi Prisoners Work to Re-Build Wrecked Europe Washington, D. C. ‘GOOF BOMBS’ HIT JAPAN WASHINGTON.—The inside story of how the army and navy are burn­ ing up Japan’s main cities, block by block, may now be revealed at least Sn part. The two greatest contributions to .the burning of Japan are the B-29 and a new, still somewhat mysteri­ ous fire-bomb known as the “goop bomb.” Just how the “goop bomb” got its name isn’t known. However, it’s the most terrible fire spread­ er in the world. Part of its secret is an oily mush developed by petro­ leum chemists. This makes the con­ tents of the bombs stick in gluelike gobs to anything it hits, making it almost impossible for Japanese fire­ fighters to scrape it loose. However, what really made the bomb the most terrible in the world was experiments car­ ried out by some of Henry Kai­ ser’s West coast scientists. They fonnd Kaiser had a surplus of fast bnraing, white-hot magne­ sium production on his hands, and they also knew one of the greatest difficulties in ' making magnesium is its high explosive content. So they experimented with mixing magnesium dust in the oil of the bomb. This magnesium dust lights up in a searing blaze as soon as it comes in contact with air. Result is the hottest fire ever known. Most important effect of the "goop bomb” is that no known fire-fighting equipment can douse its flames. Wa­ ter only adds to the blaze; as do any of the other specialized fire­ fighting chemicals. AU the Japs do now against the “goop bomb” is to try to confine the area in which it burns, not put it out. This is one reason for increas­ ing optimism abont an early end of the Jap waT. • • • CONTINUED CENSORSHIP With the European war over, ev­ eryone expected press censorship to ease up. In some respects, how­ ever, especially in the Pacific, it is getting tougher. Not only are newspapers barred from even speculating regarding certain international phases of the Pacific war, but the navy for some weird reason hushed up the bombing of the airplane carrier Franklin from April 26, when she got to New York, to May 17, when the dis­ aster finally was announced. There were obvious reasons for keeping the news quiet while the ship was en route through the Panama canal. But once it passed the canal and was safely tied up in New York, all danger was past, however, the navy still invoked censorship. • * • AMERICA’S NO. ONE HEEL Former OPA Administrator Leon Henderson is a sad man these days. Every time he picks up the news­ papers, he reads story after story telling how Washington has given some manufacturer permission to produce again. Henderson recalls how he gained the reputation of being “America’s No. I heel,” by cutting down the American civilian consumption to al­ most zero. “If I could only change all that,” moans Henderson. “If the President would only give me a job for one week—just one short week—in which I could give the people back some of the things I took away from them. Then folks wouldn’t think I’m such a bad guy after all.”• • * I DIPLOMATIC CHAFF I C, South Africa’s prime minister Jan.i Christian Smuts seldom speaks but when he does, every one listens. C Jan Masaryk, Czechoslovakia’s | foreign minister, has been the m ost; effective go-between in conciliating I Russian-western differences. | C Sen. Glenn Taylor of Idaho has used only five gallons of gas since arriving in Washington—an example which could be emulated by a lot of other bigwigs. C Secret service is on the trail of a counterfeiting ring which has cir­ culated hundreds of thousands of spurious one dollar bills. . . . They all bear the same serial number, are considered one of the cleverest jobs recently pulled. C One reason General Eisenhower and his staff have been so upset about congressmen visiting the bat­ tle zones is that when the Germans counterattacked last December, the Nazis sent a powerful paratroop force to take the' little town of Cernay. Had they lqnded one week earlier to the hour, they would have captured the entire house military affairs committee delega­ tion then in France.

G M m BiUTilden D IG Bill Tilden opened up an inter- 1* esting angle ,on the m atter of concentration recently in a long dis­ cussion we had-upon this important topic. It was Tilden's idea that ten­ nis called for more concentration than golf or any cither sport, for this reason: “In golf you play the game stroke by stroke. You know where your tee shot should go — and then there’s the green. But in tennis you have to map out your tactics or strategy several strokes ahead. You work to get your opponent into a cer­ tain spot where he can’t make a re­ turn. This may call for many strokes, here and there. In tennis you have extended concentra­ tion. In' golf and baseball it is more limited. It is usually only the next play.” Greasy Neale,, coach of the Phila­ delphia Eagles, disagreed with this, as far as footbaU goes. “In football,” Greasy said, “we frequently run two or three plays to set up the third or fourth play..This, of courrse, is up to the quarter­ back, or whoever is running the team.” "I know,” TUden said, “but In footbaU you have 11 men to figure with. In tennis you are aU alone. Just as you are in a boxing match where it is man against man—not team against team, I still say that tennis, for the individual, calls for more concentration than any other single sport.” At this point I recalled a story that Ty Cobb had told me. As a rule baseball is played hit by hit or run by run. The main part of baseball’s concentration is on the next play— the pitcher, the man at bat or the defense. But Ty Cobb once told me of three games he had won against the Yankees in the old days—three plays he had planned over two months ahead. “All I worked on,” Ty said, “was the right opening. You have to wait for that. I just happened to spot cer­ tain weak spots in their defense— and when the right time came it was a push over. But I still had to re­ member what these weak spots were over a period of two months.” This is what I call the peak of ex­ tended concentration. But there were never many Ty Cobbs hanging around. Mind on the Game Few people connected with sport, and this includes both coaches and players, quite get the point on con­ centration. Concentration happens to be the ability of thinking of the right thing at the right time. “Do you know,” Tommy Armour once told me, “that not one man in a hundred can concentrate for more than a minute at a time?” I checked later, and found this was true. I mean full concentration. The so-called human brain isn’t equipped any other way. It only oper­ ates in spots or spells. F o r; ex­ ample, Jack Dempsey could concen­ trate against a big, slow-moving heavyweight. But Jack was never so hot against a fast boxer such as Tunney, Gibbons or Greb. Concentration is the most impor­ tant single word in sport—but few even know what the word really means. Knute Rockne used to tell me— “I want my teams physically re­ laxed—but mentally keen.” 'The an­ gle here is that teams mentally keen are physically relaxed. For the brain or the mind or whatever it is usually dominates the muscular system. It is from the brain that the message comes. Certainly the subconscious mind plays its part. But it is the acting, conscious'kind that plays a much larger part. Hurry-up Yost once told me that he would rather coach an Army team at West Point than any other squad. “Why?” I asked him. “Because,’i’ Yost said, "each member of that Army squad was listening to every word I said. This squad was trained in discipline. At Michigan and other places I found no such response.” Ask the average golf instructor.

As a posse was after them Melody and Fory were taken to a deserted shack. He changed sad­ dles with Monte’s and returned to Fayne- Vllle where he met Ira. Ira had him covered when Lee came In and ordered Melody to htt the trail with him. They soon came across Cherry and Fury. On* der threats from Lee they all returned Co the ranch to find Monfe. Cherry man* aged to draw a gun on Leo and made ar­ rangement! to take MUody to when Ow express money was hid by Monte. CHAPTER XI She turned to stare at him blank­ ly, the tears drying on her cheeks. 44Monte would Idll a girl who did to him what I’ve done to you," she said at last. There was criticism in that, even a faint contempt. But Melody only shrugged, his eyes searching Uie hills by the last light. 44Welll I wouldn’t,” he said. - They reached the forgotten adobe an hour after dark. It was set on a hit of barren ledge, among plung­ ing, tortuous ridges suitable for use by wild burros and goats. Scrub oak, juniper and ground pine tan­ gled with the manzanita along a racy little stream. In the brief darkness before moonrise the adobe squatted like a squared-out piece of the solid hills. Melody, striding into the black in­ terior with confidence, immediately fell over a slab table with a terrific crash. Cherry’s voice said, with nervous irritation, “Will you wait until I make a light?”She struck a match, and touched it to the candle she had brought. Melody watched her as she melted the base of the candle first, and stuck it on a shelf, before lighting the wick. Then they turned and looked at the room. A tall, gaunt-faced man sat watch­ ing them steadily from a bunk in the comer of the room.' He lounged back with his knees crossed, to all appearances at home and at his ease. But in his hand was the big­ gest hog-leg of a six-gun that Melody had ever seen, and it was pointed steadily at the region of MeIodjr4S belt. The three stood and looked at each other through a moment of quiet. The man with the gun spoke first. 44Do you happen to know who I am, bud?” Melody looked the gun in the eye, and his answer was respectful. 44No, sir.” 44Luke Packer is the name.” 44Are you—are you looking for somebody, Mr. Packer?” Packer stared at him; but the gun did not waver from Melody’s belt buckle. 44You be the judge,” he said. 44First thing of all,” Luke Packer said, “you might put your hands up a little bit. . . . 4Hiafs high enough. 44Thafs one thing I never figured out,” he said as he took Melody’s gun, “what a feller would do if a woman hung the drop on him. Okay, you can put your hands down, Mon­ te. It’s my idee of one hell of a fix.” He stuck Melody’s gun in his waistband. “I know a feller got hoisted by a lady with a shotgun, oncet,” Melo­ dy offered. “What did he do?” 44He give in and married her.” 44Tch, tch,” said Luke Packer. “Don’t that just go to show. You people make yourselves as comfort­able as you kin. There’s liable to be a couple of hours wait.” “What are you holding us for?” Cherrjr demanded now. She held her voice low, but there was a nerv­ ous edge to it. Her eyes were too bright, and her lips looked sick and pale. “I don’t reckon we’re just going to live here, are we?” . 44Not for too long,” Packer an­ swered her genially. He had hoi-' stered his huge gun, and now eased himself down on the bunk again, pa­ tient and relaxed. 44A few of the boys—part of Sheriff Thingan’s posse —are casting up the other arm of the gulch. They ought to be back, directly—in an hour or two. What they want to do then is up to them. I just work for the express com­ pany.’’Cherry asked sharply, “Are there Cottons with them?” Packer, loading up a pipe now, looked her over calmly. 44Monte was bound to run into Cottons, soon or late,” he said. 44Whafs the dif­ ference if it comes now, or later in the town?” “Because,” Cherry said, "if there are Cottons on the way he’ll never see the town, or a trial by law! If you don’t know that, you don’t know ■ what you’re making happen here!” “Now, wait a minute, here,” Mel­ ody said. His words were even and unhurried, and his gaze was as SteadyasLulKPacker4S. Thetfanes were trying to change Melody, these last few days, but they weren’t get­ ting any place. "This thing’s gone fur enough, and ten feet further. It’s time people knowed a couple of things, before there’s one hell of a mistake made here!” 4 4Anything-you-say-is-liable-to.be- used-against-you, go ahead, son, I’m listening.” Pittker lit his pipe from a candle, and idly watched a smoke cloud float away. "And come a Iee- tle farther from that door!” W.N.U- stnvics. “I’m hot Monte Jarrad,” Melody told him now. “My name is Melody Jones, out o’ high Montana. I don’t know Monte Jarrad; I never set eyes on him in my whole life; I ain’t responsible for none of the tilings he ever done; and I’ll be pertically damned if I aim to get hung in his place!” Luke. Packer set his hat far back on his balding head,' and looked at Melody with a pity that touched con­ tempt. "Listen, Monte,” he said at last. "I can’t scarcely read my name. But I can read you, son, as easy as a bear trail knee-deep in molasses candy. .And I’ll go on rec­ ord that that is’ the wobbliest dam fool lie I ever had a try at, man or boy, in .sixty years of misdoings!” “Packer,” Melody said, "is there any way I could talk to this girl alone?” . >• -... A gleam of interest showed in Luke Packer’s eye. He had an idea that he was about to get some place. 44You and her can step in there,” he decided. With his eyes he indicated a heavy slab door in the rear wall. “Last year a possum was living there. But I judge she’s gone, by now.”Melody rolled his. eyes at the door, and his jaw slacked a little. 44You mean,” he asked, “you trust me I won’t slope out the back way, and high-tail over the hill?”"Son, in this here case, I trust you one hundred per cent to the ton.” “Whut?” 44I kin pretty near bet my life that you ain’t going to flapdoodle a 44Lnke Packer is the name—” pore old trusting detective by bust­ ing out no back way.” Cherry de Longpre looked a little queer, and her gaze upon Liflce Pack­ er sharpened. But Melody just said simply, 44Mr. Packer, I appreciate this. You ain’t going to never re­ gret it.” “Better take a candle with you.” When Melody had forced the stuck door, Cherry preceded Melody into a black little room like a moldy cave. Melody’s first act was to crack his head upon a low beam; but when he had wedged the door shut behind them, and they looked about them by their candle’s still flame, the reason for .Packer’s trust became dear. There was no back door, nor window, nor opening of any kind. Cherry said in a smothered voice, 44What did you want to talk to me about?” 44Oh,” Melody said, brought, back to the subject in hand. 44CSierry, you look here. I would like to hear one reason—just some one reason— why that money shouldn’t go back to the people it belongs to.” Cherry wouldn’t look at him, nor let him watch her face. “And save you the risk of your skin,” she said without expression. 44That ain’t got nothing to do with it!” But after Mdody had heard himself say that he hesitated. "Yes it does, too,” he admitted. "It has all there is to do with it. What I want to know is why in all hell I shouldn’t turn that money bade?” “No reason, I guess,” Cherry said, "if you don’t know any.” “I know what’s in your mind,” Mdody accused her. "You’re think­ ing it will hurt Monte’s chances if I give the money up. You figure I should sooner take my .chances with the Cottons, than let Monte in for a risk on the trail.” "I didn’t say all that.*’ 44No, but you thought it You think if Monte gets dear, fine, and the heck with my neck! The hell with my neck,” he improved this. 4T vi already told you where the cache is,” Cherry said. H ir words were very quiet as if pressed down by the walls. He looked at her sadly for several' moments; then turoed with unusual' decision upon the 'door.' The inner handle came away in his hands on his first try at opening it, but after some effort he got hold of the edge with his fingers, and wrenched the door open with a vio­ lence that broke its leather hinges. 44Shucks," he said. “Made up your mind, Monte?” Packer asked him. 44I reckon,” Melody grunted, "it's as near made up as I’ll ever git it.” 4Tm glad to hear it, Monte. I thought for a minute, there, we was going to see a pack of trouble, here, when the Cottons come. I do hate trouble,” Luke Packer said. 4Tve ducked it all of my life. . . '. Well?” 44WeU, whut?” 44WeU, where’s the money?” “Whut money?” 44What monqy?” Packer yeUed. 44I don’t know nothin’,” Melody shouted at him. “Don’t people think I ever git mad?” Cherry said, 4TU teU you where itis.” Both men were looking hard at her now. Melody’s face had gone slack again. 44But," he said, in a silly-sounding squeak. He cleared his throat. 44But," he said again, this time in bass, but just as vaguely as before. Melody turned toward Cherry. “Are you sure,” he asked her, his voice pecifliar, “are you sure jest which man you aim to be the death of around here?” "What?” "Jest a little bit *go you was aU in favor of hangin’—” 44WiU you be quiet!” Cherry blew up. “I can’t stand this any more! The express box is under tbat slab!” Luke Packer did not turn to the window ledge at once, His eyes were jumping quickly back and forth from one to the other of them, study­ ing them acutely. He drew bis huge gun, very cautious, now that he had come to the end of a weary traU, that no last-minute trick should un­ seat him. When he moved at last he backed toward the window ledge, stiU facing them. He bent his knees; with his free hand, but without look­ ing at the ledge, he heaved upward upon the edge of the slab. The broad timber of the window ledge moved to his lift, not easily, but enough to confirm that it was free. A faint surprise crossed Luke Packer’s face. He may not have beUeved Cherry, until then. Packer half whirled toward the window embrasure, his gun pointed straight upward in his right hand. With his left hand he caught a new grip upon the ledge slab, and sent it spinning to the floor. He hardly noticed as Melody, mov­ ing at his walking lope, crossed the cabin to his side. Together they stood peering into the black cache. Luke Packer bent to reach In after the steel-bound box that rested deep within the wall. Then, as he bent, there came an ugly short sound, as when a melon falls and splits; and over this sound­ ed the tinkle of glass fragments. Luke Packer’s whole body shocked rigid, as if struck in the middle by a crowbar; and for a moment he balanced there, upon galvanized muscles. In that moment while he still stood, bent and rigid, they heard the far-off sound of the gun-shot which had sent the lead. Then Luke Pack­ er collapsed and fell, first in a loose sprawl across the black mouth of the cache, then, rolling and sliding, into an angular heap upon the floor. For an instant Melody stared out through a broken pane into the night, as if anjrthing were to be seen out there in the moonless dark. Then he stooped above Luke Packer. Instantly a second shot buzzed through tiie room, and bedded in the floor; followed in a moment by the sound of the rifle. “Melody! Melody!” Cherry cried out. “Get down!” She came running to him. “Put out the candles, you—you ninny,” Packer wheezed. Itis words were no more than a soft rasp in his throat. “Put out all but one.” They did as they were told; and then, when they had made Luke Packer as comfortable as they could, they straightened up and looked at each other. Their eyes were grave. 44George Fury,” Melody said, very softly, his lips scarcely moving. 44He must of come up careful, and saw that we was caught. So this—this is what he done.” "What?” Luke Packer asked, in a ghostly whisper. 44What did you say?” “Nothin’ ” Luke Packer’s eyes were open, fixed on the beams above, but they did not appear to see anything. There was a strange look of preoccu­ pation in his face, as if the old man had turned inward with an in­ tense attention. 44 You folks had bet­ ter be getting on,” he said without moving his eyes. “The posse can’t be far away.” They waited. There was nothing to do, and nothing to look at, and nothing to listen to except the slowly changing rhythm of Luke Packer? breathing, which was turning shaky in his throat. But when Packer finally spoke his voice was surpris­ing dear. “So you were telling the truth,’* he said. “Yes,” Melody answered.

GOD'S JOT IN CREATION LESSON TEXT-Genesls 1:1-9» 10-13» 19» ,18. 36» 37» 31. I G01J>EN TEXT—God saw everything that he had made, and, behold. It was very good.—Genesis 1:31. I The destiny of this world seems ,to be in the balances in our day With wicked men ruthlessly trying to destroy that which is good and upright. We are deeply concerned in our hearts that the right should triumph and that a just and right­ eous peace should come. I In such a day it is good to remind ourselves, as we will in our three- month series of studies in Genesis, that man did not make this world, nor is it the product of natural forces. God made it. 1 God, who is eternal, infinite, and knows ail from the beginning, is not moved by the impulses of the mo­ ment nor staggered by the catas­ trophes of a day. He made the world. He made man. He had a plan for them, and still has a plan which He will in due sea­ son work out for His own glory. I. God Made Heaven and Earth (vv. 1-5, 10-12, 16-18). The biblical account of creation— 44In the beginning God” — stands as a dignified, satisfactory, intelli­ gent explanation of the origin of tilings, and in bold contrast to the confusing and almost unbeliev­ able theories ot men. ■ The best of scientists admit that they know nothing of the origin of things, and some say that they never will know. The answer to this query, with which every human philosophy opens, is the affirmation with which the divine account in Genesis opens 44In the beginning God.” 1 Space forbids full discussion of the account of creation, but a study of it will reveal its beautiful order, symmetry, ,and completeness. I Compare that orderly account with ’the absurdities of the ancient human cosmogonies, and you have a new 'regard for ScriptAre. • n . God Made Man in His Own Image (w . 26, 27). ' Although man has' often so de­ based himself by sin and dis­ obedience to God that it seems al­ most unbelievable,. it is neverthe­ less true that he was made in the likeness and image of God. Because that is true, we never give up hope for him. Because of that image, no matter how deeply defaced by sin, man still may be touched by re­ deeming grace and restored to fel-’ lowship with God. : The likeness and image of God in man refers to a moral and spiritual ,likeness. Man is a living soul with intelligence, feeling and will. He is 'a moral being, knowing the differ­ ence between right and wrong. He is a self-conscious, personal being. ; To man God gave dominion 'over the earth and all its potential powers. Sometimes one has been hopeful that man was making good progress in the development of the earth’s resources for his own good and the glory of God. But one is sad to see how he has used this 'great God-given opportunity for de- struction and death. Only a revival of real Christianity can bring him !back to his senses. Let us pray and ,work for it. : Observe that the family was estab- lished as the center of man’s life on earth, as God gave him a 44help meet unto him.” Woman was taken "not out of man’s head that she should rule over him; nor out of his feet to be trampled upon; but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected by him, and near his heart to be loved by him” (Matthew Henry). I The decay of family life and the modem substitution of social and civic units as the basis of life have led to disastrous results, one of which is juvenile delinquency. Not only, do we need a revival of re­ ligion, we also need a revival of the home life of the nation. HI. God Made AU Tilings Well (v. 31). When men do recognize the hand of God in creation, they often seem to feel that what He made was rath­ er limited and defective. It would almost seem that God should be clever about perfecting His work, developing it and making it useful. - As a matter of fact, God, who had all knowledge and whose stand­ ards are higher than man’s stand? ards could possibly be, looked over His creation and “behold, it was very good" (v. 31). It was a “fin­ ished” job (2:1). Man has destroyed much of ere- ation’s beauty. Sin . Came in and marred it. What man’s inventive cleverness has developed of the pos­ sibilities of this world is only a minute fraction of what is yet avail.' able. Instead of boasting, man might well be distressed at the pathetic slowness w ith which he has "thought God’s thoughts after Him.” I Bistead of fighting and destroying, he ought to give his energies to ^building, developing, and above aU, Ito loving God with all his -heart mid his neighbor as himself (Matt 22:3V J4” ^ SEWING CIRCLE NEEDLECRAFT Practical Pinafore for Little Girl CHE’D rather wear cute embroid- 0 ered pinafores than her frilliest party dress!

Now is the time for all good men along with the bad ones to invest some of their filthy lucre in War Bonds. This cheap money will buy bonds even if it wont buy meat. Ic is said the sugar scarcity gets worse from month to month. If we are not mistaken, Colorado grows enough beets to supply the entire United States with sugar, if the refiners were allowed to manu­ facture it. Strange things are hap­ pening in this country these days. A number of Democrats have asked us what kind of a President we thought Harry Truman would make. To be honest about the matter we are- frank in saying that we think be will make a better President than tbe late lamented Franklin Delano Roosevelt. We would be glad to hear from our soldier and sailor boys who are overseas, and who are in army camps in this country. Write us short letters for publication so your relatives and friends will know you are getting along. Our tbous ands of readers enjoy hearing from the men in service. Let us bear from you. We will be glad to print your letters. We didn’t have any OPA during the first World War, aud so far as we can remember, we didn’t have any meat shortage, and prices were not as high then as they are today People brought less than they are buying now, with no restrictions on the sale of most necessities. We had but little inflation then, but dearly beloved, * we have It now. Even a thousand dollar house now selling for three thousand and a $4 load of wood is now bringing $25. Some of these days this fool's paradise is going to take a decided tumble. May tbe time soon come when a man can purchase one hundred cents worth of goods for a dollar. Soldiers Home From Europe The following Davie County sol diers arrived last week from the battlefields of Europe, a n d will spend a month with home folks in various sections of the county be. fore being sent to Camp Gruber, Okla: Pvt. Arthur E. Carter. Pfc. Ra. Ieigh A. Glasscock, Pfc. Bristol J Barnette, Pfc. Grady L. Tutterow, Pfc. Marvin H. Wagoner, Pfc. Walter W. Osborne, Pvt George F. Harding, Pfc. Samuel L. Daywalt. It is needless to say that all the boys are glad to be home again, if only for 30 days. We are glad in deed to welcome them and hope they will soon be home to stay. Notice to Women War Bond Workers AU ladies on the War Bond sell­ ing committee, are urged to make a last minute drive this week. We must go over tbe top. MKS. W E. KEN NEN. Ccunty Cha'rman. Revival at North Coo-I From Captain Yates County Welfare Work Donanworth. Germany, June 14. Dear Mr. Stroudt-Tbie is to ad* vise you that I have a new mailing address. It seems that I have worn the old one in tbe past thirty-four months. I am now located sbcty.five miles northwest of Munich The blue Damebe flows past my door and just now our favorite sport is motor* boating Thanks to the infantry, who left their assault boats with us. I trust that I will be home for the Masonic Picnic, however redeploy, ment in a tedious and sometimes slow process. This finds me in tbe best of health. The food and recreational facilities are excellent, now that the war with Germany is over. We are sending men on leave to the Riveria in France also to London and Paris. In closing, I wish to thank you for the paper that I have received so promptly throughout the war. Best regards. JOHN A. YATES. Sgt. Smith Happy Nordhausen, Germany. Mar SI. Hello, Mr. Strouds—How are you feeling at this writiogt Fine, I hope. As for my­ self, I have never felt better or hod less. I guess you woe very glad to hear the news when Germany surrendered. I was not as happy as I thought I would be, be­ cause I had just been waiting for it for a- bout ten days. At that time I was at Ka- thern, between the Seale and Elbe Rivera. Now I am near Nordhausen. where one of the notorious slave labor camps was. passed throagh there the day it was cap­ tured, and I saw a sight which I never expected to see, and which I know I can never forget. I am expecting to get to come home be­ fore long- I have plenty of points to get released from the army, but am not sure yet that I will get out. I had two CO colas a few days ago. That was ah the best treat I have had tor a long time. Well, I must close for now. I wish ] and all mv good friends good luck, and hope to see you soon. Your Mend. SGT. KERMIT SMITH. Davie Boy In Germany Germany, Jone 4. Dear Mr. Stroud:—Just thought I would drop veu a line to say hello for a change. Well, first off I will tell you a little about tbe place we ate staying now. It ' is a small town named Bergen, Io southern Germany, about 60 miles south of Munich. It is a very nice place just at the foot of the mountains. I guess you know that I have done a great deal of traveling since I was in North Carolina a little more than a year ago. I have been in Scotland, England, France, Luxembourg, Belgium, Holland and now Germany. Sincelhavebeeo atthisplace I have been over to see Hitler’s borne at Berchtesgaden. which is about 45 miles from here. It is also a Iovdy place over there, although the bombs have destroyed most of bis house, as you can see from a picture I am sending along with this let­ ter. I also saw, and was in a church there that was erected in the ninth century. Of course there are a lot of. other things that are too numerous to mention, that I have seen. It would take too long for me to say something about everything, for I am such a poor typist, and I can’t write at all on account of having broken a me­ tacarpal bone in my right band, so yro can see it is taking me some time to peck out this letter. Oh, yes, you can stop sending The Re­ cord as I am hoping to be bact in tbe U. S. A. pretty soon.'I hope. Will dose, hop­ ing to see you soon Sincerely. S.-SGT. ROBERT W. RICHIE As the state and its counties ore. pare to go into another fiscal year, North Carolina public welfare a. gencies look forward to even great­ er accomplishments in 1945-46 than in tbe year just closing. During the past 1-2 months Da­ vie County has increased its aver­ age payment monthly to needy a- ged persons from $9.97 to $14.08. Tbe state-wide average has gone up from $10.67 t0 $I 2-5°* according to Mrs. Lucile M. Donnelly, coun ty welfare supeiintendent. Destructive Fire Visits MocksvilIe i One of the most destructive fires that has visited Mocksville for many years, occurred last Monday evening, June 18th, at 7 o'clock when the large building that held the machinery of tbe Hanes Chair & Novelty Co., was totally destroy­ ed. The building bousing the of- fees and finishing room was saved by tbe heroic efforts put forrh by tbe local fire department. It is not known how the fire started J. W. Harris, President ot the company, tells us that tbe plant will . . . , be rebuilt as early as possible, and In tbts county there were <91 machjnery installed as rapidly as it persons receiving old age assistance 1 can be purchased and set up.

C. * lk o « J lo m e kI o u m i /le p o tite k in WASHINGTON By Walter Shead WNU Cemvowfml Freight Rate Problem WNU Washington Bmaau i 621 Union Trust Building, VXfHAT the recent ruling of the I * ' Interstate Commerce commis- Mm . attempting to equalize freight s in the South and West with East, will mean to the small I shippers, merchants, maniifac- and farmers in the 15,000 amaTI towns and rural communities,-' >eoe here is prepared to predict. Ka one believes, for instance, Ae present temporary rates, even ■ Btade permanent, will play any ^preciable part in a reduction in Ae cost of retail business, or in the of commodities in the affected i, except perhaps in some rare specific instances. The Interstate Commerce eommis- *Son ruling, made after six years of Study, and .perhaps with an eye on Supreme court which has under consideration the Governor Amall Ceorgia case, roughly reduces class freight rates from Chicago and IUi- west to the Rocky mountains «nd south below the Ohio and Po- rivers and in Virginia south of Richmond, about 10 per cent. East cf the IUinois-Indiana line and Berth of the Ohio and Potomac the «Sass rates are increased 10 per oeBL Class freight rates, however, only about 10 per cent of U td freight shipments, the other 90 per cent being in commodity or bulk oefioad lot shipments. The class -sates <ai the Pacific coast are not IadEected. But here is some background «n freight rates. . . . The trend aenre 1935 has been upwards. . . Ae ICC has refused to lower appeals of shippers in the height of the depres- ■ . . . railroads applied for a per cent increase In 1940 and 1912 the ICC handed down a giving them about a * get cent increase on all rates . . . Aen on Ae instance of OPA Wot t ter eent increase was sus­pended from year to year, Ae Ast suspension expiring January - when Ae case is auto- reopened and rail- will ask the increase be ■cAstated . . . and Aey will BBve Ae argument that war Aipments are off, reconversion Xas set in and with reduced ton­ nage Aey can't operate in Ae ’ postwar era wiA increased costs and loss of business. But here are some optimistic jgleantegs from Ae decision, which jsaagr result from this ruling of Ae Btaomission as aids to small busi- and to farmers: Decrease A Ae rates A Ae and SouA will give impetus jU establishment of new small busi­ ness and manufacturing enterprises jA Aose sections which can compete w a more even basis of equality hrtSfa similar business in Ae NorA and East. I 2. The new rate reductions may iXrag about greater decentralization Bf teg business from the NorA and j3East to Ae SouA and West states. ’ 3. The- ruling opens Ae way for Qrfnre revision of Ae variations of class rates, known as exception column rates, and Aose who studied Ae situation believe it mean Ae end definitely of sec- ' freight rates. 4.

Where Ae stage supplies a line of 20. girls- to a musical, the movies (bless ’em) give us 200. Such prodigality pays off and always has. That's one . reason studios, do things' to abigyjay. i Some .of the boys recenUy sat down and figured that the fans who pay to see’ Fred MacMurray or ,Bette Darts, in a "picture would be twice as eager to,, see Aeir favor-” ites if said favor­ ites were to do two roles to -Ae ■ same film instead of Ae customary single stint. Two for the price of one is Ae bait held out these, days. Imagine how Ae bobby- soxers- would queue up if a marquee were to read: “Tonight: 2—Frank Sinatras—2” ! ' The dual role (one star playing two. parts to Ae same movie) is b95k in vogue with a bang. Actors are delighted—and why not?—since this means twice as many closeups. But camera men and technicians are cussin’ right out loud,-for-mak­ ing. a pair of actors sprout where Aere should be one is a tricky and , tedious job. It .was had enough in days of silent movies to match such acHon,,Ipnt ,WjA1 dialogue the prob- lerfi. takes on uie'tone of a Russian trying to translate a sphech done to Chinese. .............. It’s an Epidemic Over at Mutual, Fred MacMurray -is-playing twin-broAers-to-Ae com­edy “Pardon My- Past,” on-which Leslie Fmitim serves as boA pro­ ducer and-director. This comedy has Fred playing two 'distinct charac­ ters,one eomedyi Ae oAer a heavy. When I aske'd Fred how he liked be­ ing a split personality he quipped back at me wiA:.’ “Don’t forget, Hedda, it isn’t every man who gets a chance to shake hands wiA him­ self. -,And it isn’t-every man who gets Ae chance of beiiig his own ri­ val for Ae affecffohs of pretty-Mar- guerite Chapman.” Over at Warners’, Bette Davis is having herself an > emotional daisy day as two girls—one good, t’oAer bad—in “A Stolen Life.” Bette’s a ,triple-threat gal on this. She’s also producing it. Bette about emotes herself to pieces when she plays a single role, so you can imagine what this is doing to her. Cornel Wilde of “A Song to Re­ member” is also hitting Ae dual role trail to “A Thousand and One Nights,” a technicolor extravaganza of old Bagdad. Al Green, director, had his hands full on this one, for not only does Cornel do a dual stint but Dennis Hoey works to double exposure throughout Ae story, im- . personating an eastern potentate and his wicked twin broAer, Hajji. Ray Rennahan, camera man, told me he went berserk trying to keep Ae characters straight on the film. In “Sacred Stiff,”- which comes from Ptoe-Thomas, LucieB Little­ field also plays two parts, eccentric twin brothers, who get mixed up to Ae theft of a jewel-studded chess set, of all things I Danny Kaye to “Wonder Man” plays idenUca) twins, too. The Hard Way On Ae- stage a few plays have had a star play two separate and distinct parts in Ae same show. This causes Ae actor or actress to make quick costume changes just off the stage and switch ,wigs as quickly as' possible. But it really takes a movie camera to present anything as boisterous and blatant as Betty Hutton singing a duet wiA herself in “Here Come the Waves” or Gene Keliys startling alter ego routine to which he serves as his own dancing partner in “Cover Girl.” The dual role, however, is as old as Ae moving picture itself. ’Way back to Ae days of short-reelers technicians discovered how to make half a film, take a scene, then wind back and expose Ae oAer half which had remained unexposed. Crude double exposure was ABs ob­tained, but it was a far cry from such smooA achievements as hav­ ing Fied MacMurray hand himself a letter in “Pardon My Past” or Cornel Wilde’s duel ’wiA himself to “A Thousand and One Nights.” The stars enjoy Ae glory of a showy dual assignment. No, they don’t get twice their salary, but Ae extra footage, applause and glory make up for Ae lack of bulge to Aeir bank accounts.

TTrrTTT Roosevelt’s Appeal for 7th War Loan WASHINGTON. D. C.—Before Wa dentil President Franldin D. Roose­velt issued a statement in support of the MiAty Sev­enth War Loan for 14 billions of dol- Iars In which he rem inds the Na­tion I t is still dead- with . The President stressed the im- p o r t a n e e of g reater produc­tion to g e th e r with the Duying and h o ld in g of W ar B onds to help achieve the victory. He said: mI don't need to tett you that tea ore Mtit Ioditd In a deadly druggie with ear enemies—the enemies o f our tear of IWte-and the war b din the M of fob o f each one of as. The greeted pro- duettou of which we one capable, /oifh- MB.BOOBEVELT fad adherence Ia regulations that w possible to supply our boys In wwh everything they need, and buying and holding War Bonds—theseIhfcge we at homo mad do to speed elslory. mIts the p a d three years more than M millions of Americans have facetted bWlons o f dollars In bonds• Neeer be­ fore have so many people held sueh a dlrset share In a great national eptort.

The best war conduct is al­ ways to be on an all-oat war effort basis. General Douglas C. MacArthur gave you the tipoff on what toexpect before your relatives and friends take over a wrecked Tokyo. Hi the Philippine cam­ paign only 189 Japanese surren­dered in a slaughter which cost them 308,180 men. . Buy bonds in the 7th War Loan with a spirit of an American in combat. Give it to the Japs full force and with all your weapons. That’s the way to do your part in the vital, mighty 7th War Loan.
