Farm Loan Act Amend ed By Congress Mr.IGeorgeL. Crater, Socretary. Treasurer of the Winston-Salem Na tional Farm Loan Association, said today that under the new legislation recently enaetod bv Congress it will be possible for the association to handle loans more expeditiously and that with more of the lending pro cess turned over to the associations, the prospective borrowers will be told more quickly of what action will be taken on their application for long-term loans from the Federal Land Bank of Columbia. Under the new law, the land bank may lend up to 65 per cent of the normal agricultural value of the farm whereas since 1917 it has been limited to 50 percent, of the apprais ed value of the laud plus 20 per cent of the permanent improvements. Land Bank Commissioner loans will be continued for one year from Julr 1,1945. They may be made up to 75 per c»nt of the normal value of the farm. However, the contract interest rate on thede loans will be 5 per cent except to veterans who mgy borrow at 4 per cent in the e- vent the loan is guaranteed under the G. I Bill of Rights. The con tract rate fot land bank loans throu the association will remain at the present all-time low of 4 per cent. Secretary Cratersaid that many of the Commissioner loans have been reduced to a point where they can easily be refinanced with 4 per cent land bank loans whicb will give these borrowers interest savings of I per cent. The office of the association iB lo cated in Winston-Salem and handles land bank and Cemmissioner loans in Davidson, Davie. Forsvtb. Stakes, Surry and Yaidkin Counties. GiviDg Away America Back from Latin America, a State department worker complains that the United States has wasted mil lions of dollars in gifts to the coun tries south of us, building good will This official suggests that the Unit ed States cannot forever go on be ing Santa Claus. Immediately, millions of people in the United States will protest. They believe in giviug away money to distant peoples—other people’s money, that of taxpayers. They are "liberals” with some body else’s money. They would send a million to put zippers on Hottentots’ pants when they wouldn’t give a dime to star ving child in a slum in their own citv. It is a peculiarity with liberals: They are far sighted and can’t see the needs of their neighbors for straining their eyes across an ocean They would uplift, at great ex pense. an entire nation thousands of miles away while refusing to lend a hand—or a nickel—to a down-and-outer three blocks away They can calmly watch their own people starve while demanding that the goverment send a ship, load of luxuries to somebody pro vided it goes to anybody but A- meticans. They would give away the the United States if they conld and in fact have almost succeded in doing it. Charlotte Observer. Tobacco Ceiling Hiked The government has announced that the ceiling price for the 1945 crop of flue-cured tobacco will be one cent a pound higher than last rear's top price In a joint statement, theOPA and the agriculture department said that this year’s ceiling, to be formally established soon, will be weighted average purchase price of £40 a hun dred pounds for all fine cured to bacco, with a premium of $4 50 hundred pounds for tobacco tied in to "bands.” An X mark after name means you owe us. Vandenberg Is Right No one has given us a better de finition of the United Nations Charter than Senator Vandenberg, who called it a “Great Adventure To Stop World War III Before It Starts.” ^ That is precisely what the San Francisco Charter is designed and intended to accomplish. Many will argue that it will not and cannot accomplish that pur pose And it is hardly unfair to say that we have some people in this country—may be some in the Senate—who would oppose it ev if they believed it would. They may be expected to shout “entangling alliances” and domi nation” by Britian and Russia Although Senator Vandenberg in recent years has indicated lean ings toward isolationism, he stands four square todav on the proposi. tion that without interactional or- gunization and co operation neither the world nor the United States can hope to prevent another world war. And he knows a Third world war would be enormously more tragic and destructive thrn the two previous ones combined. Senator Vandenberg of course ad. mits, as every one mnst, that the San Francisco Charter is not per fect, that the document has its in firmities, but it is his conviction that it is a "sound basis for seek or ganized peace” and therefore he will "make every effort to secure its ratification w ith reasonable speed.” That's what all senators, both Democratic and Republican, should do. Tnat is what the overwhelm ing majority ot the American peo ple and the miilions of men in the armed services would have them do. —Charlotte Observer. ThoseHappyDays There are some signs of normal life returning. A fellow has gone through the Niagara rapids in a barrel. One hundred thousand per sons watched it. torn between fear that he would be killed and that he wouldn’t. You remember the tree-sitting craze? Happy days when that was all people had to worry about. And the dime chain letter epidemic aud tbe yo-yo obession when grown people went around with a wooden ball at the end o.f a string—what blissful days they were! It was silly but more sensible than the present era of blood, more reasonable than world butchery, more humane than prison camps, slaughter of children by the hund reds of thousands. It was ridicu- Ious but not brutal, laughable but not deadly. The world is sadly in need of more of the abnormal normalities of life.—Charlotte Observer. * > 2 To Wives and Parents of Soldiers If you are sending The Re cord to your husband or son who is in the armed forces, please see that his subscrip tion is paid in advance. We are forced to discontinue all subscriptions to the boys-in foreign lands or in army camps in this country when their subscriptions expires. Charles Ross Goes Back To His Size ^ If Governor Gregg Cherry does nothing else dnring his administra tion to deserve our thanks he ac complished one feat that should re ceive the plaudits ot the taxpayers state. He has cut Charles Ross, of Harnett county, loose from tbe fat job he has been hanging onto for 20 years. Jnst a two-by-four lawyer, small town politician he managed to edge himself into the state high, way commission in some manner we haven’t the least idea how, and has stuck like a leach to his log. Why shouldn’t he? He could hardly have been expected to make as much coin-of the realm in a n y other form of living. He goes back to Lillington to practice law. That’s his size. If Cherry will cut loosr many other "public servants” who have been "sucking the public tit” for so many years, as he has done Ross he should receive the heartiest con gratulations. R-Ieigh i s loaded down with such parasites. Only a change in the political complexion of the state government would wipe the slate clean. That the state badly needs. Thanks, Mr. Governor. Eeep up such good work as this: -Union Republican. Save The Chifldren A tragedy in any age and in any country is yonthful energy misdi rected. This was illustrated in a recent hearing of some boys before the Clerk of the Court in this coun ty. Even games of children some times get beyond the bounds of good citinship What these boys were in need oi was the compan ionship of some good men. Youtb- fni energy will be expanded, and when it is not under the guidance of the proper adult leadership, tbe gang spirit will previal which e ventually runs riot in mob style. When parents become so busy that they neglect their children, and when a community becomes so in terested in other things that they do not look out for their young people in a character building way, serious results sometimes follow. We are not condemning any one in particular, on the other hand we are pointing out there is a bet ter way, and merely wish to sug gest that no community is better than its citizenship. We are not running over with sympathy for law-breakers but “ God have pity” on the parenthood of any country when they think so much of their business that they will neglect their boys and girls and let them drift into lawlessness.—Avery County News. Home-coming at New Union Church There will be a home coming at New Union Methodist Church near Sheffield, on Sunday, Aug. 12th, with special singing in the after noon. Tb’s marks tbe beginning of a revival. The pastor, Rev. R. G. McClamroch, will do tbe preach, ing. Everyone is cordially Invited to attend. Land potters at this office.

Great, Tender Heart America has a great, big, kind heart, so big it almost burst at times for love of humunity provided it be alien, even enemy humanity. Continued complaints of the great kindness shown Axis prisoners 0 f wer reveal this qness disease, a sort of neurosis. One of the IateBt concerns a train train traveling from the West coast to Florida, with American flying veterans making the trip in a hot top sleeper while German prisoners of war enjoyed at least part of the trip in air conditioned cars. The veterans arrived in Miami pro testing it, but that got them no where. SnmeoffiAal will come up with an alibi. This incident comes on the heels of another trip in tbe West, where Italians who had fought the United Nations were transported in Pull mans. That too, was "explained” During this sort of thing American soldiers are crowded into day coach es. while the public is told it mustn’t use Pullmans—they are needed for transporting troops. They are indeed, and also for car rying some our enemies. Maybewe are trying to kill ’em with kindness This great sympathetic heart of America does strange things, espe cially when it coupled with the great soft hands of America,- Charlotte Observer.

Not only are fruits a good source of vita mins and miner als, but they will enable you to save hundreds of points this year as they did last year. Since rationing began, fruits have always, carried a high ration value, and yet, they are essefftial and con venient to serve for breakfast, luncheon and dinner. Fruits may be canned with or without sugar, but the fruit will mellow and ripen in the jars much more satisfactorily if a sugar syrup is used. With syrups plentiful, part, usually half, of it is sweetened with a light or dark com syrup. Honey may be substituted for one-half the sugar, also. It will darken the fruit and give it a some what stronger flavor, but it is good. Only fruits that are good in flavor, uniformly ripened and firm in tex ture should find their way to the jar. Just as it is true of any other canning and preserving, you get only what you put into the can. Can ning is designed for preserving the fruit, not for improving poor quality produce. When large fruits such as peaches, pears or apples are canned, they require peeling and should be placed in brine (2 teaspoons salt to I quart of water) to prevent them from turning dark while peeling. The open kettle method for canning fruit has been a favorite among homemakers for many generations because it gives such attractive results. However, the hot water bath has found many users be cause the danger of spoilage is re duced to a mini mum and the ap pearance of the fruit still retains its shape, Savor and texture. On the table, time is also given for process ing in the pressure cooker if one is available, but it is not essential for fruit canning as it is for vegetable preserving. Syrnp MaUng Guide. Thin syrups for fruit canning will be most popular this year because LINN SATS F rnlt Canning Tips: Fruit sometimes discolors at the top of the jar if the fruit is under-ripe or when accurate processing time or temperature is not maintained. Dlsedoration of the top layers of the trait is caused by oxidation which means that air hei not been expelled from the jar b? the beat of processing. If food U packed too solidly or jars Blleit to everfleving Instead of to wtthln a half inch of the tap, some of the liquid may boil out of the jars during process ing. Canning, powders and preserva tives are not necessary in the canning procedure. of the sugar shortage. For this type, use I cup sugar to 3 cups water. Heat the sugar and liquid together until sugar is dissolved and syrup is boiling. Or, use % cup corn syrup (light or dark) or Vs cup honey with Vt cup sugar. Medium type syrup is good for most fruits and berries, but it re quires a little more sugar. The pro portion is 2 cups water to I cup sug ar, or half com syrup or honey and half of the amount in sugar. In past years, peaches and pears and some of the other fruits have always been canned with a thick syrup—I cup water to I cup sugar. Don’t feel that you cannot can if the sugar doesn’t reach around for this type of syrup. A thin or medium syrup can do the job. Packing Jars. Fruits, berries and tomatoes (which are considered a fruit for canning purposes) are delicate in texture and high in juice content. They should be packed solidly in the jar to prevent undue shrinkage and consequent “empty” appear ance after processing. Precooking of the fruit is suggested because it shrinks the fruit or berry and en ables you to get more in the jar. It takes a little bit longer to can by precooking, but the results are worth the effort. Jars should be filled to within Vs inch of the top. If tightly packed up to this point, fruit and berries will rarely float after processing, and the jars will have a much nicer appear ance because they are full of fruit. Make sure the rims of the jar are not chipped as this will prevent a perfect seal. It’s a good idea, too, to wipe the rims after the fruit and syrup are added so that no parti cles of food or juice stick to them to prevent them from sealing properly. Making a Hot Water Bath. A water bath canner may be made from a wash boiler or any other large deep vessel that has a close fitting cover and is deep enough to permit the jars to stand upright and still have enough water to come an inch or two above tiie jars. This water should be kept boiling during the entire processing period. It should never be allowed to boil away enough to come less than I inch above the jars. If nec essary have a kettle of boiling wa-. ter on the range, beside the water bath, to replenish the supply in the canner. A rack which will hold the jars % inch from the bottom of the kettle is also essential. The jars should be set wide enough apart to allow for free circulation of water. How do you count processing time? As soon as the water starts boiling briskly around the filled jars is the rule. The times given on the above ta ble are tested and accurate. Set the clock with an alarm, if neces sary, and do not try to whittle it down. As soon as the processing period is up, remove the jars and place on several thicknesses of doth or newspaper in a place free from drafts and allow to cooL Then store in a cool, dry place. The jars should be set far enough apart to allow for free circulation of air to bring them to room temperature as quickly as possible. Rcleaacd by Woteia NewipaMr Union.

Not that he ignores Jhe males in his appeal to the public! “Young Wid ow,” costarring Jane Russell and Louis Hayward, is intended to en tertain both sexes. But Stromberg likes feminine titles — “Dishonored Lady” is on his list, and “Strange Woman,” and his first independent picture was “Lady of Burlesque.” And credit him with giving Joan Crawford, Myrna Loy and Rosalind Russell a big push toward stardom. Lovely Constance Moore, the screen star, has been given the leading-lady role of the sleuthing secretary to “Jim Lawton” in CONSTANCE MOORE “Hollywood Mystery Time,” Sun days over the American network. Dennis O’Keefe plays “Lawton,” a mystery-solving movie producer, — * — Ethel Barrymore is definitely committed to making pictures now that she has signed a contract with David 0. Selznick1S Vanguard com pany. She’ll make four pictures in four years. The first will be “Some Must Watch,” a mystery by Ethel Lina White, in which she will be starred with Dorothy McGuire. Her most recent picture is “None But the Lonely Heart,” made for RKO last season. — * — A honeymoon and the start of a new radio series make thla an event ful summer for Carol Bruce. _£arol met her bridegroom when she was filling a hotel engagement in Min neapolis, and it was love at first sight. As for the radio program, lis teners have fallen in love with it. Carol and Curt Massey are replac ing the Andrews Sisters for the summer, in “Sunday at the N-K Ranch,” on the American network. Vera-Ellen, Samuel Goldwyn's “find” who makes her screen debut in “Wonder Man,” the hilarious Danny Kaye musical, was once a Rockette at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. She went to New York as a delegate to the Dancing Mas ters of America convention, and just stayed. Virginia Mayo might still be play ing ringmistress for a horse of which her brother-in-law was play ing the rear legs if Goldwyn hadn’t caught the act at a night club and given her a contract. It was the “Pansy the Horse Act.” Virginia’s featured in “Wonder Man.” ■ ?K When Lt. Col. James Stewartr TJSAAF, returns to America he’ll get a jolt when he hears Dick Nel son in the cast of CBS’s “Men of ■Vision.” Nelson’s voice is a perfect ether double for Stewart’s — and Nelson even looks like the famous movie star.

C A ttS O N WASHINGTON QUIETEST IN TEARS The District of Columbia looks more like a peacetime capital this summer than in many years. . For the first time since the war, the house is now planning a long recess. . . . This reflects increased congres sional confidence in the new White House set-up, also the fact that many a legislator yearns for home. . . . The dollar-a-year men and brass hats who planned to check out after Germany’s defeat haven’t started their exodus. Instead they’ve been joined by hundreds of business men who’ve moved in to get their reconversion headaches unsnarled. . . . Thousands of returning officers and enlisted men from Europe have added to the housing and feeding problem. Parking spaces along the Potomac are crowded on hot nights with G.I. Joes and G.I. Janes and government workers searching for a cool breeze. Washington is more peaceful, but still jammed. Adding to the crush are the Tru man boys who have descended on Washington. . . . They fall into three categories: (I) The Missouri boys, friends of Truman and Bob Hanne- gan looking for jobs, patronage, and juicy political plums. . . . (2) The Pauley boys from Southern Califor nia—friends of former Democratic Treasurer Ed Pauley who’ve rushed into town to climb on the gravy train. They’re brash and crude for the most part, have little respect for the taxpayers’ money, and already have their eyes on the gilded dome of the capitol. . . . Third group are the “Battery K” men. These are the World War I vets who saw service with Harry Truman in 1917 and 1918. Most are satisfied with a brief “hello” and a handshake from their hero.- Others cling to the wrought iron gates of the White House, think that their comradeship with the new chief executive is a guarantee of a soft government job. Truman Heyday Truman’s own aides in the White House are still impressed by their new surroundings. . . . Some feel that Truman’s rise gives them a blank check to use his power for their own ends. . . . One youthful aid has been bragging about having Tru man’s political enemies shad* owed, their wires tapped. . . . Truman, a sworn enemy of wire-tapping when in the senate, will probably clip their wings soon. . . . Most powerful man in the Truman entourage is chubby, cigar-smoking Brig. Gen. Harry Vaughan, one of the “Battery K” boys, who buzzes considerable advice into his chief’s ear, but now finds it being accepted with less fre quency. . . . The hangers-on are still having a field day around the White House. Center of administration power has partly shifted from the White House to the second floor of the May flower hotel, where Bob Hannegan holds forth in Democratic headquar ters. . . . Judge Welbum Mayock, the committee’s new general coun sel, uses the office to lobby for Cali fornia oil interests. . . . George Kil- liom, the new treasurer of the na tional committee, who has been using a meat-ax to collect money for the committee from business men may find himself chopped down soon. . . . One ardent Democratic supporter of many years’ standing hearing about Killiom’s tactics, said, “He’ll collect so much money we’ll lose in ’48. Everyone he taps for $5,000 will feel like contributing twice as much to the Republi cans to boot the Pauley crowd out.” Meanwhile little is happening to set the stage for Democratic victories in the congressional elections next year. . . . Hannegan is already in hot water with labor, particularly the CIO, which he has been studi ously ignoring. Labor leaders, who poured out millions to help Roose velt last year, claim they can’t even get a glass of water from the Demo crats when it comes to bucking op pressive legislation in congress, and are now making threats to move over to the GOP camp. Republicans Harmonious. Farther up Connecticut avenue at Republican headquarters things are harmonious. . . . Mie Republicans are sitting back, are quietly laying the groundwork for a high-powered congressional race next November. . . . What they need most of all are some issues. . . . GOPsters, in cluding Chairman Herbert Brown ell, are confident they’ll find plenty in a few months, are hoping that Truman stubs a few toes politically soon Republican Chairman Brownell has a million dollars to spend on the elections.'. . . Truman's cabinet changes thus far have been extremely popular.. . Tall, scholarly new Labor Sec retary Schwellenbach has made scores of friends for his department, has infused new life among its- weary employees, has made an A-I impression on congress. ... . . Ex-Congressman Clint Anderson has the hottest job in the new ad ministration trying to straighten out the tangled food mess as secretary of agriculture. . . . Anderson is a great red-tape shearer, has already made big improvements, and is no pushover for lobbyists. j Navy Floating Dock in Service Real Short Timer A completed floating dry dock shows eight sections which have been welded together, after having been towed separately for thousands of miles to an advance base.

Eisenhower stand in rev* erence over the grave of F.D.R. as General Eisenhower reported to hir “chief.” “half the victory is ours." New Agriculture Secretary WNU WtMngten Banat 621 Union Trust Building. FARMERS, ranchers, dairymen " and all others in the agricultural industry, both in the production and processing' fields, must have confi dence in their government. . . must have faith that their government will stand by every commitment made to them in full . . . and go ahead for the fullest production of food stuffs possible. This is the message to agricul ture from Clinton P. Anderson, tall, lanky westerner, and new secretary of agriculture in the administration of President Truman. The new secretary, a rancher- farmer-business man, is determined that farmers will not suffer in their patriotic efforts for all - out production . . . that support prices will be suf ficient and over-all to insure adequate prices . . . that there will be no huge surplus which will bog down prices . . . that consumer subsidies will grad ually be eliminated as upward pressures on prices relax . . . that agreed requirements from ,.agriculture.. represent obligations which must .be carried through . . . that adequate manpower and ma chinery for the farm must be given priority .. . Sand that Uie government must take necessary steps to pro vide adequate transportation facili ties to move groups and foodstuffs, perishables and livestock, and the movement of manpower to areas where there is an acute labor shortage. This, briefly,.is the program which this new, dynamic figure in the de partment of agriculture has set for himself and the agricultural indus try for the immediate months ahead. He is no novice at the job he has undertaken. As chairman of the special committee of the house to investigate food shortages, he trav eled the country from coast to Coastr- heard innumerable witnesses on all sides of every question and after weeks of consideration, he and his committee came up with a set of recommendations, most of which have now been enacted into law. Long Range Program Too And while Anderson is immediate ly concerned with the production of foodstuifs for the war period, he has not lost sight of the long-range pro gram to whicK the farmer is looking for the postwar years. Mr. An derson wil] be secretary of agricul ture for the next 3% years. There is a probability that V k and maybe more, of those years will be postwar years. At any rate,-with his char acteristic thoroughness, he already has a committee of agricultural ex perts at work studying basic agri cultural problenis with the idea of bringing forth a set of recommenda tions for the postwar period. This reporter .would say, after an interview with Mr. Anderson, and a study of his work in con gress, that the new secretary has his feet solidly on the ground, that he is not given to going off half-cocked, that he studies ev ery side of a question and that once his mind is made up be will use every* resource and all - his ability to Carry through his program. While he would not commit himself as to the Triple A program, he did say that the Triple A program, with the exception of soil conserva tion,- had been pretty well laid on -the shelf during these war years and for the postwar period he indi cated that the crop adjustment pro gram would have, to be analyzed thoroughly and that he already had a committee at work doing just that. Interested in Parity By congressional action, however, farmers have, been guaranteed a price for their products, or most of them, at 90 per cint of -parity for two years after the end of the war and Mr. Anderson is particularly in terested in adequate support prices to maintain this price. Furthermore, support prices are not costing the government anything at this time, since prices of commodities are well above the prices set: It is only when commodity prices start falling for any reason, that the support price will hold the farmer up from ruinous prices. Anderson is not Anticipating any huge surpluses, but nevertheless he is taking.no chancei on the so-called reconvgrsion period when army and othfer" huge government buyers start cut-backs in food purchases. For this reason he is now starting conver sations seeking to taper off, rather than cut-off,, army purchases, and lend lease. ' Consumer subsidies, he looks upon as temporary expediencies, and very temporally at that. He is not in favor of such subsidies as a governmental policy in peacetime.

In trying to save Monte and lat er Melody, got them Involved In the murder of Luke Packer, the Insnranee cop. Fury had m et up with Monte, who shot hint. Monte returned to the farm where Melody had gone and was about to kill him when Cherry returned with the dying Fury. Mdody told Moute that cherry would have to choose between them. Monte threatened to km them both after which Cherry said she wished that Monte was more like Mdofly. Mel ody started to take care of Fury. C benf began to get Monte's horse ready. CHAPTEE XVl Monte Jarrad was white from lips to eyes. “So he done what he claimed he done,” he said. She shrugged; the remark had no meaning for her. Sie started to turn away from him, then looked back suddenly; and now her eyes raked him with surprise, and a new comprehension. “Monte — you’re wearing his stuff!” Jarrad answered without compro mise. “Well—he’s wearing mine.” They stood silent, and their eyes held.“Monte—you were going to kill him! You were going to kill him, and leave him to be buried as your self!" He would have lied to her if he had felt like it; perhaps even if he had thought of it. But he had fought his way up and down his section of the world so long that he had half forgot the use of lies. “Cherry,” he said, “if I never meant to kill him before, I’d sure lay in to kill him now!” “To save yourself,” she said, her throat constricted. “After all the chances I made him take—You were going to gun him down and go free—” “Only thing I’m sorry for,” Monte said with his teeth in the way, “is I didn’t get to it long ago!” Far off, in the direction of Payne- ville, a long dust was rising. The dust marked the masked line of the twisting road, and when you knew where the road was you could glimpse part of it, a mile off through the scrub oak. ' The down-country road was full of riders. A faint, quivery edge came into Cherry's voice, but it stayed flat and low. “It’s time for you to run.” “I’ll ride when I’m ready," Monte Jarrad said. “That don’t mean I’m ready yet.” He turned toward the back of the house, toward the barn, George Fury lay on a couple of bales of hay which ranged along the barn’s front wall. The first horizontal sunshine was leveling over Holiday Ridge; it struck through the cracks in the unbat tened wall, and laid golden lines of light across George Fury, but his face was In shadow. The early air was crystal clear, dustless for once, even where the light came through, but those thin pane-like slices of light confused the eye. First sight did not tell Melody much except that George lay inhumanly still. “George?” he said uncertainly. ' He got no answer, nothing but a ghastly quiet. Hehesitatedthrough a moment of dread before he went forward. Lightly he lifted George’s eyelid with his thumb. “Git your damn thumb out of my eye,” George said. : “I was only—” He let it trail off. I “Only what?” “Well, I was studyih’ to see if •you was daid.” “Well, I ain’t, damn it!” said George. He sounded a little more like himself. “I be damn if I aim to stand fer this!”“Never mind, now, George.” ■ “Well, I blame the climate of Cali- fomy!” He discovered now George’s burned hand, that had laid in the coals of Monte’s fire. He caught up a half-used can of axle grease, treat ed the burn with it, then looked around him vaguely for a moment, in search of a bandage. There !wasn’t anything, of course. He jerked off his neck scarf, the one he had got for coming in seventeenth at Cheyenne; and unhesitatingly tore it into strips. George was trying to say some thing again. Every time he stopped talking he had a hard time getting started again, as if his voice was rusty. “If—if anything turns out funny here—” he hesitated. Melody knew what he meant. “Don’t try to make out,” he said crossly, “that you’re worse off than you be.” “If,” George repeated. “I wish to hell you’d do one thing.” “Whut’s that?” I “Give up the broncs, Melody.” ! “Whut?” “You can’t stomp broncs. The average mustang starts to laugh when he sees you coming. Mighty soon you’ll get slung on your head again, and come up even sillier than you be. There ain’t room fer it, Melody.. I want you should quit ’em.” I “How’ll I git a job?” “Give up the whole cowhand busi ness. It’s trillin’. Trytoamountto something for a change. It’ll any ways be something new . . .” , This last came so feebly- Uiat it U S E L E S S C O W B O Y ptWLLAN LeM AY W.NU. SLRVtoL- frightened Melody. “I—I’ll think about it. George, was it Monte Jarrad?” George grunted an affirmative. “If it wasn’t fer the climate of Cali- fom y—” “Hesh, now. Expect me to harken to sech drivel the whole day?” Monte Jarrad moved with the stiff caution -his wound imposed, but his step was sure as he pointed himself toward the bam. Cherry came trot ting out of the house after him, and overtook him at the gallery step. She caught Monte’s arm, and he half turned to look at her for a moment over his shoulder. Cherry tried to speak to him rapidly, urgently, but she stuttered, and lost her words. Monte Jarrad shook off her hands, and came on toward the bam. Cherry stared after him from the edge of the gallery, baffled, uncer tain, and more frightened than Mel ody had ever seen her. She hesi tated while Monte walked seven strides. Then suddenly she called out across the fifty yards which sep arated bam and house, and her tone was frantic. “Melody! Melody, look out!” Monte Jarrad whirled upon her so savagely that for a split instant Melody thought he was going to fire on her. Melody started to yell, which, after all, was about all he “Monte—you’re wearing his stuff.” was equipped for, just then. But Monte Jarrad immediately swung back to face the bam again, and his six-gun had jumped into his hand. He stood with heels planted apart, and his face was frenzied. “Come out of there!” he shouted. “Come out and make a fight of it!” “Thke my gun,” George Fury said, his voice amazingly strong and loud. “Take my gun from m’belt, and drill him down! . . .” Even with Monte Jarrad standing out in front of him, it seemed strange to Melody that George should ever ask another man to take his gun. George had no gun. His gun was where it had fallen from his hand as he went down, up there in the hills. Monte Jarrad stood weaving his head this way and that, trying to see through the cracks in the bam wall a hundred feet away from him. Then he started toward the barn again, moving warily and uncertain ly, not sure of what he was up against now. Then Monte Jarrad stopped again, and pivoted on one heel in a sw ift jerk, to face a different way. He seemed satisfied now that no gun was in the barn, for he was willing to turn away from it. The distant muffle of hoofs was closer, all of it, but it had split up, and now came from two ways. Some of the approaching horses—it sounded like three or more—were coming in full stretch, very near, much nearer than should have been expected yet.Almost immediately after that— Monte had hardly reached the gal lery—four riders broke over the crest of the drop where the excuse for a road plunged downward into the brush. They were strung out a little, but obviously hanging togeth er. - Fever Crick dp Longpre was in front on one of his runt mustangs; he was whipping up side and side with his rope-end, like an Indian, and the blown cayuse was running uphill like a scrambling cat. Avery de Longpre was close on his flank; his bigger horse kept trying to pass, but the swinging rope made him flinch back. After these two, Lee Gledhill came pounding up over the hump, stand ing in his stirrups to sweep the layout with ten times keener a scouting eye than the two ahead of him had used. And last came a rider Melo dy had never seen before. Monte Jarrad was waiting for them on the edge of the gallery. Lee Gledhill grinned and waved to Monte as he pulled up, and Jarrad responded, without the grin. Everybody piled out of the saddle now, the stranger last and most reluctantly. Fever Crick and Lee Gledhill began talking urgently to Monte, both at once. Their very intensity seemed to press their voices low and breathy; Meloity couldn’t get any thing they said. He got it, though, when Monte Jarrad snapped at Fe ver Crick to shut up; and Fever Crick did so, flinching back as if he had been clipped with a quirt. Shortly after that there was a general half-movement toward the horses, and the man Melody did not know promptly mounted again. But Monte Jarrad stood where he was, speaking slowly and bitterly, in a low voice; and when he stopped to spit, contemptuously, the mounted man reluctantly got down from the gray horse. He was a stocky man, very broad in the shoulders, and chunkyin the face; as plain as any thing in the world, he felt helpless and unsafe afoot, like a horse-In- dian. Lee Gledhill was trying to argue with Monte, hard and quick; Melody knew Lee's face was going sniff- sneer. Avery kept swinging this way and that, unhappily trying to watch in all directions. And all this time that unbroken gabble of hoofs kept coming from the down- mountain road, stronger and closer as each minute dragged out. It grew in strength endlessly, long aft er it seemingly could come no near er without the riders appearing. Its soft unrhythmic thrum could be felt in the ground, sensed hi the trem ble of toe wind, as much as it could be heard. Harry Henshaw let go a long, pealing whinny. And still the five men stood and deadlocked over a decision which any moment could blow itself up like a powder keg. It took care of itself now. The short metallic whang of a bullet, ex actly like the breaking of a guitar string, ended in the rattling echo of a rifle's voice. The head of the gray horse jerked up, and it screamed. Then it sagged to its knees slowly, and rolled onto its side with a thump. Only its head did not go down. It lay there looking bewil dered, as. if resting. Avery de Longpre and Lee Gled- hill tied their horses then. They did it in close to nothing and a fifth, and took cover in the house, joining Monte Jarrad who had moved inside, without hurry, in the same moment the bullet struck. Fever Crick first dropped his reins entirely and bolted for the kitchen. Then he was shamed by sight of the others securing their horses, and made a wild spraddle-legged dash at his cayuse, stampeding it past hope. It went crashing down toe mountain, its head held high to one side, to keep from tripping on toe trailing reins. Fever Crick scrambled for cover, tripped on toe edge of the gallery, and sprawled headlong through the kitchen door. No other long-range shot followed the first one immediately. Now Cherry de Longpre came out of toe house, walking steadily and wearily, as if nothing were happen ing. Monte Jarrad called after her a sharp command that she stay in. She gave some short answer that Melody could not hear; but as he commanded her again, furiously, she spoke over her shoulder to him, and this tone everyone heard what she said. Her tone was soft, and nearly life less except that it shook a little; but the words were clear. “Damn you,” she said. “Damn you, and damn you. I’ll go where I please; and you’ll burn in hell before you stop me.”Melody said, “I’m sorry, Cherry.” “For what?” she whimpered, crossly. She had him, there. “Well—jest in a general way, I guess. . . .” “Nearly forty riders are on the road,” she told him, crisply now. “Lester Cotton’s pulled them togeth er. Some of these are good men. They’ll close in to finish this busi ness'once and for all, and this time they’ll do it. Get on this horse and bust him out of here!” Melody Jones rolled his eyes at George, embarrassed, and did noth ing. Ctoerry thrust toe reins into his hands. “Will you come to life,” she begged him. “If you can show enough sense, just this once in your life, to cut out the back way, and not trip up, or ride in the wrong direction, or some other silly fool mistake — there’s still a little chance.”Melody looked at toe reins in his hands curiously, as if he didn’t know what they were for; then laid them on toe edge of a two-by-four, like something meant to keep on a shelf. “Heck,” he said. “This here’s mo notonous.” “She’s right,” George Fury said from where he lay. “You can’t do no more damage here.” “Harry Henshaw ain’t hardly equal to—”“Damn Harry Henshawt Git!” Sweat was standing out on George Fury’s forehead, while at the same time his teeth showed signs of chat tering. Physical weakness was only part of that. The rest ot it was toe nervous-sense of being trapped helpless here by his wound, while hell-to-pay broke all around him. But as Melody still stood, wordless, George closed his eyes and subsid ed, washing his hands of further ob ligation to toe impossible. (TO BE CONTINUED) I IMPROVED............ UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY ICHOOL Lesson ^ By HAROLD I*. LUNDQUIST, D. D.Of Tne Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. Released by Westeao Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 5 „ Lesson subjects and Scripture texts w* iected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. ISAAC’S HERITAGE LESSON TEXT—Genesis 24:10, 15-20. 34- SO. 61-01. GOLDEN TEXT—I have a goodly heritage. —Psalm 10:0. The ordinary things of life become extraordinary when we recognize in them the outworking of toe plan of God. Our lesson presents one of his tory’s sweetest love stories. It would be worth reading just for that reason, but it is also toe account of God’s hand in the carrying forward of His promised blessing on the seed of Abraham.For a long time it seemed that there could be no fulfillment at all, for Sarah and Abraham had no child. Then by a miracle, God gave them a beloved son. Isaac’s remarkable deliverance in toe hour when it looked as though he might be taken from his father (Gen. 22:10-12) was like bringing back one who was dead (Heb. 11:18, 19). He grew into manhood, and Abra ham, good father and faithful ser vant of toe Lord, determined that his son must have a godly wife. So in accordance with Oriental custom he sent a most trusted servant back to their homeland to choose a bride from their own kindred. The altogether charming story un folds in our lesson as we see I. A Faitofnl Servant (v. 10). Full instructions from Abraham and an oath that he would not take a bride for Isaac from among toe Canaanites, prepared toe servant for his journey. Taking with him a goodly caravan and rich presents from his master, he set out on his journey. There is much to learn here about the need of parental concern, and their interested action in helping young people to find toe right mate. We see toe importance of avoiding “mixed” marriages, especially those between a believer and an un believer. We see the need of constant de pendence on God, for only He has toe wisdom and toe knowledge of human hearts which can properly join two lives together. In our day when marriage is so carelessly and casually contracted, these mat ters need special emphasis. H. A Fair Damsel (w . 15-20). To be good to look upon is cer tainly a desirable thing in a wom an, but it has been far too much exploited in our day. Notice that while Rebekah was very fair, she also had those qualities of character and of experience which prepared her to be a good wife for Isaac. She was kind and willing to serve; not only did she offer water to the servant of Abraham, but promptly watered his camels. Such an atti tude of heart and mind is a great asset to a woman in marriage. She was instructed in the domestic arts. The fact that she had come to draw water indicated that, and her ability to draw the water showed that she had experienced the duties of woman in the household. Here is wise counsel for the young man who is interested in marriage, and for his parents as they guide him. Let him look tor the girl with toe fair countenance if he will, but let him be sure that there is some thing really worthwhile behind toe pretty face. No woman, no matter how extensive her culture or how rich her family, is ready for marriage until she knows something of toe re sponsibilities of family life and has a will to do what she can for toe care and comfort of others. IH. An Honorable Proposal (w. 34-36). Abraham’s trusted man, perceiv ing that God had led him to toe one of His choice, at once stated his er rand. There was no trickery, no smooth double-talk. This was a straight-out proposal that Rebekah come with him to be toe bride of Isaac. Notice that he made known his master’s financial position, and made clear the place Rebekah would occupy as toe wife of Isaac. That is as it should be. There is a contractual basis for marriage which calls for complete candor and honest dealing. But there was more here, for Re- bekah ultimately responded to the dictates of her own heart when she said, “I will go” (see v. 58). It was IV. A Love Marriage (w . 61-67). Isaac, meditating hr the twilight, presents a fine picture of a man spiritually ready to be a good hus band. He had more to offer than riches. Let other young men follow his example. The tender scene of their meet ing, and of the love which welled up in their hearts at first sight of one another, needs no comment. We do need to say that unless America gets back tp real love mar riages, our nation is destined for dis aster. Matrimony based on physical attraction, improper emphasis on sex, or on convenience, will never be- able to meet the stress of mod em life. Love can and will do it, especially where those who thus love one another first love God.

The huge num ber of new home canners who sail through with flying colors, while those who boast of years of experience floun der, is amazing. Or is it? Gladys Kimbrough, Home Service Director for Ball Brothers Company; m anufacturers of glass fruit jars, sees nothing unusual in the <3* situation because she finds it easierto teach a person who has never canned than to “unteach” one backed by years of haphazard experience.To prove her point, Miss Kimbrough calls attention to the fact that tomatoes rate top place in both ease of canning and spoilage after canning. What’s the answer? Sheer carelessness plus old-fashioned open-kettle canning. Anybody can rig up a water-bath canner for processing fruits and tomatoes. A lard can or a wash boiler, fitted with some sort of platform to hold the jar half an inch or so from the bot tom of the utensil is all that is needed for a water-bath. Carelessness Causes Spoilage Spoilage of water-bath processed tomatoes is usually traceable to carelessness in selection and preparation or failure to follow‘the manufacturer’s latest instructions. Prewar instructions should in most instances be forgotten. Remembering them gets a lot of old-timers into trouble.Tomatoes should ripen on the vine end be used as soon as they are firm ripe. They should be canned,, the day they are gathered, but if kept cool they may stand as much as 24 hours before processing. This is mentioned because some persons must depend upon a market for their supply. Any tomato containing a decayed spot, no matter how small, should be discarded. Canning those from which such spots have been removed leads to spoilage. Sound over-ripe ones and those from which small spots have been cut may be made into chili sauce or ketchup— never, never into juice. Juice re quires sound tomatoes.The jars, caps, rubbers, and canner should be ready before one prepares the tomatoes. Every tomato should be carefully washed before it is scalded for skinning. If you have no wire basket, a square of cheese cloth will serve the purpose of holding tomatoes for scalding. Simply put enough tomatoes for filling one or two jars on the cloth, catch up the four ends of the square, and hold the “bag” in boiling water from one-half to one minute. Then, if you like, dip the bag in cold water, making it a little easier to remove the skins. Next use a sharp pointed knife to remove every bit of the core, slip the skins, cut away any green or white spots and drop the tomato into a clean hot jar. Cut tomatoes if they won’t go in whole. After two or three tomatoes are in the jar, press them with a clean wooden spoon (one which has been boiled) until they crack and the juice runs out to fill the spaces between the fruit. Yes, “fruit” is right. We call them vegetables because they grow in gardens. When the jar has been filled to within about one inch of the top, add salt to suit your taste, and adjust the cap according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After two or three jars have been filled, ease them down in the canner. Have the water in the canner steaming but not boiling. When all the jars are in, the water in the canner should cover them an inch or more and should be brought to boiling as quickly as possible. Keep it boiling steadily but gently. When processing time (from 30 to 45 minutes) is up, remove the jars, stand them out of a draft and several inches apart to cool. If most of the pulp goes to the top of the jar and the juice stays at the bottom, it is because Qie tomatoes were poor quality, picked green, packed too loose, or the water in the canner boiled too hard. The cold pack, water-bath processed method is probably preferred by the majority of authorities on the subject but for the last, few years there has been a trend toward hot packing. Selection and preparation for hot packing is the same as for cold packing. Jlfter the cores and skins are removed, the tomatoes are quartered and cooked until they have boiled gently for 5 minutes. Then they are put into hot jars and processed 20 minutes in a hot- water bath canner. Boil Tomatoes Slowly Open kettle? That’s what causes most of the spoilage! Those who are not willing to adopt the more modem methods should remember that the prepared tomatoes should be boiled slowly for 20 minutes, then poured into hot jars. The kettle of tomatoes and the pans of water holding jars, caps, and rubbers, should stay over the heat so that a jar may be lifted out of boiling water, placed on a cloth folded in a pan, then filled with boiling tomatoes, and sealed lightning quick.Mason jars which are to be sealed with zinc caps and Ideal jars may be filled to the top but should not be overflowed. About one-half inch head space should be left when glass top or two-piece metal Vacu- Seal caps are used. Yes, open kettle canning is hot work and results are uncertain, so why not now, since food is so priceless, change to better methods? Of course, the newestis not always the best. For example, oven canning, new in comparison to some of the others, has been given a fair trial and condemned because it is unreliable and dangerous.A great many persons like to process tomatoes ten minutes at five pounds in a steam pressure cooker. This is safe enough but tends to over-cook the tomatoes, so our best home canners use a water bath for processing all acid foods.

Green Tells a Farm Story By President Boy Hf, Green Colorado A Se M CoOego Fort Collins, Colorado Big erops and good prices left a wheat farmer not long ago with 330,000 cash in the bank. Said he, “If I don’t invest this in inflated land values, what can I do with it to earn anything?” I said to him, “Did you ever think of using part of it to insure yourself a steadier farm income'after the war? For $150 a month, or $1,800 a year in War Bonds, you can begin to collect ten years after the war $200 a month. As you will be getting older by that time, wouldn’t that be a better sup plement to what income the farm then produces than having to turn again to the cream can and what your wife can make out of chickens? Wouldn’t it be a nice retirement fund for a fellow that is now 55 years old? Wouldn’t you like to have had $200 a month cash coming in last time?”In addition, if you can put in War Bonds a lump-sum as reserve for op erations in bad years, for deferred purchases of equipment, for repairs, for up-keep, for new household equipment; and then whatever the postwar adjustment, you would have an easier time of it than you had last time.You wouldn’t have to wait on somebody’s extra special plan; you would have already completed one of your own.H you are proud of the mdepend-, ence of your occupation, and jealous of preserving as much of it as poe-, sible, don’t orate and speculate—i order WAK BONDSI ^ V e d a l 0Ushers'* Help Buy Bmds * . *&&&'*■ & Ideal for sports and kind to less- than-perfect figures are these “pedal pushers."

Treasury Departmeut Recognition Gratitude has been defined bitter ly as a lively anticipation of future favors. Gratitude is a great deal more than that, but it’s a fact that people do much more, also much better, when they know their efforts are appreciated. Genuine appreci ation goes unexpressed sometimes, but people who don’t express their gratitude are sure to miss some desirable future favors. Unselfidi things people do for their country, for their home com munity, family or church, are not rightly done for praise. In fact, people who do noble things with glory as the primary aim quite often miss the target. Shouts of hurrah for a hero help other people more than they help him. The effect is to inspire everybody to greater pub lic service. The Danville Idea Danville, Hl., cashes in on this powerful influence. The Commer- cial-News, a Danville daily news paper, keeps the idea alive. Every Monday morning the paper carries a story about some citizen who has performed a noteworthy public serv ice. He is designated the “Man of the Week,” and the article tells why. It tells what the man did and other interesting things about him. - Selections are always on a basis of public service, not personal achievement. Some ambitious young underwriter who sells his first mil lion-dollar insurance policy is not necessarily a Man of the Week, al though he probably feels pretty suc cessful. Danville’s Man of the Week must have done something big for Danville and, like as not, received no commission on it. A One-Man Program The weekly selection, the biograph ical sketch of some good citizen every Monday, the repeated remind er of what a fine thing it is to be unselfish and thoughtful, keeps Dan ville’s wide awake citizens “on their toes.” They never let a good man down. The newspaper learns of praiseworthy achievements because somebody always writes to the edi tor and tells him. The articles are written by a mod est scribe who signs his name Bob Poisall no title after it. Inciden tally, Bob picks the Man of the Week every time. He does it without help or advice from staff or board. Usu ally he selects a man of Danville, Vermilion County, but there is no rule. If the town’s benefactor lives somewhere else he’s not barred. An Annual Banquet Every year Mr. Poisall plans ,and organizes a dinner with all trimmings and invites his 52 selected men to eat with him. The Man of the Week Banquet has become quite an institution in Danville since April, 1940. There are not always just 52 men present. Once in a while Bob has a hard time deciding which of two good men to choose and ends by naming both of them. The moral to this story is so per fectly obvious that I am going to surprise you and not mention it. Once I attended Bob’s banquet—a completely American function. I met 52 good men and true, most of whom were still surprised that what they did should be considered great. Maybe every town can’t have one but it’s a constructive project for any community where there is a man who has the knack.

A LIFE OF BEAUTY Rev. Walter E. Iaenhour. Hiddeaite.N. C. A life of beanty—that should be The aim of all mankind; For in so living we can see Uplift of soul and mind; And light that shines in splendor rare To lead the way to God, That men may Heaven's blessings share As through the world they plod. A life of beauty’s made of love, Of goodness, joy and peace; Of holiness from God above Whose glory ne’er shall cease; - And such a life will shine and glow When sun and moon shall fade; And as the ages come and go ’Twill be but grandeur made. A Iite of beauty’s filled with prayer O noble words and deeds; Is never empty, fruitless, bare, But sows the best ot seeds; And these bring forth n harvest great, Enriching other souls, And help to rid the world of hate, And bring men to their goals.

Medical Proposals The American Medical Associa tion has proposed a 14-point pro gram for extending to all people in all communities the best possible medical care, the program includ ing improved housing, nutrition and sanitation fundamental 1 0 good health, a medical survey in each state, an extensive disease preven tion campaign and increased hospi talization on a voluntary basis. The Association is preparing it self for the coming fight against the socialization of medicine and it seems to be going about in an In- telligent manner. The medical men In the country over have done an excellent job In the past and it ts pointed out that many medical men are in the vanguard of the propos ed social changes. In any event the country will likely have wider medical care in tne' years to come. —Ex. Hoarding Perishables At least some of this country’s shortage can be blamed on hoard ing, and the subsequent spoilage of perishables. There is the case of a Baltimore delicatessen proprietor charged with selling wormy caddy. Investigation showed that the can. dy bars in question hadn’t been manutactured for more than a year. But the largest food boarder of them all is Uncle Sam, and In va rious Army, Navy, Lend-Lease and Food Admistration depots has been tremendous.—Statesville Daily.

My Notions John Wesley Clay, In Winston-Salem Journal We had the honor of being in< vlted to the home-coming' at Oak- Grove Methodist Church, In Davle County, last Sunday. We have said before that we do not know of any other country in the world where the churches ob serve this custom. It Is a great oc casion. Members who have moved away try to get back for the home comings. After the 11 o’clock ser- vice a great and bountiful dinner is spread out under the trees for everyone, and then In the afternoon they usually have congregational singing, and singing by visiting choirs and quartets. It is altogeth er a grand occasion In foreign countries the churches have their annual get-togethers, their “ fiestas ” It is usually In celebration of the patron saint of the church home coming. No din ner for the attendants unless thfiy pay for it. The church officials usually put on an auction sale of everything from pigs to Scotch whisky. There is much gambling and drunkness. Most of the de cent people shun them. At the Oak Grove home-coming the man who “said grace at the table told the Lord that we were well aware that many people throughout the world would be glad to chew the bones we would throw away, and gathet the crumbs from unde 1 the table. We varily believe that if the other nations of the world bad such churches as we have in Ameri ca, and observed home-coming as we observed them, that (here would be no hungry people in the world, and no more wars. Only The Free Eat Well "Some of our more advanced thinkers,” says the Wall Street Journal, ,"have had the effrontery to put into words a statement to the effect that "freedom is all right but you can’t eat it.’ "Well, perhaps you can’t eat freedom. But note one thing. Peo ple who do not have freedom are likely not to eat.” Proof of the latter statement be comes more evident in the United States each day. Due to war-time restrictions, the people o f o u r country have given up m-ny of their freedoms, a principal one be ing the right to produce and sell. We have accepted wartime ra tionlng and price control as essen tial to the distribntion of existing supplies. But as we have give up our freedom to produce, supplies have dwindled until the United States today faces acute shortages of the essentials of life. AU the alibis that are offered In the name of "anti inflation,” will not supply the nation’s needs when freedom to produce and sell is gone—Ex. ^ T o u r W a r B o n d ' B w e s tm e n t I s Y o u r I n e e s tm e n i I n A m e r ie a *** To Wives and Parents of Soldiers If you are sending The Re cord to your husband or son who is in the armed forces, please see that his subscrip tion is paid in advance. We are forced to discontinue all subscriptions to the' boys-in foreign lands or in army camps in this country when their subscriptions expires. The soldiers want thier home paper. We have had to mark several names off our books this week. Maybe one of them was your husband'or son. Wby Sugar Shortage Amusing things do happen In this conntrv as well as other coun. tries. Just a tew nays ago, In an editorial, in a certain dally, the editor evidently sought to smoothe the feelings of thousands of mad people who are np In arms about the way they have been treated In regard to sugar. Nine papers out of ten lay the blame just where it belongs, ignorance, carelessness and indifference of the boys who sit up there In Washington, draw pay from the taxpayers and use less sense than common 16-year olders. The sugar cane farmers In Loui siana and the western sugar beet growers could have done much to supply extra sugar, but the powers that be would not allow them . to grow these necessary supplies. But it is now said that the Government is turning right about and will en courage these farmers 10 grow much more cane and beets. Wbat this editor was trying to cover up is easily figured out. He knows as well as any one that it is wrong to rob the poor people of this country of sugar when a liveli hood really depends upon a certain amount of sugar for the preserva- tion of many kinds of feed which is necessary for the well being of our people. Does he condemn such use of sugar in making wine and beer and other intoxicating beverages that are a real curse to this nation? We notice how many lives are ost in this country as a result of accidents, the majority of which is caused by intoxicating drinks. Who is to blame for all this? The men and women who drink and destroy? Certainly they are In part to blame, but the people who make It possi ble for them to have this terrible drug are more to blame. Thous ands of real drunkards would vote any time to dry up this nation, but they are not allowed a vote on the subject, even here in a so-called de mocracy. • The public knows where th e trouble lies, they know they are being robbed of their jnst part of sugar supply, and they are mad as real men and women should be. It’s to be hoped that they will not soon forget who is responsible for this conrage upon the real Amer icans who are due their part of the sugar that is being wasted and sent abroad. Just a few weeks ago, through the press we learned that many hundreds of tons of sugar which we could and should have bad here In the United States was ship ped to a foreign country. The peo- ole of this country are wilting Io divide with the world’s people, but they are thinking profoundly that America comes first. Joseph of old, who had enough sense to Save and lay up for a rainy day, instead of plowing under,crops and killing pigs and cows, burning wheat and thtowing more of it into the ocean, fed the people of Egypt first and then took care of his own breth ren. This wonderful lesson of Joseph’s foresight has been avail able for thousands of years and it does seem that what this country needs is to go back and learn some of God’s way of having things done. Godly men wish to follow the Bible to run this government, we would not be suffering as we are today. Onr President’s name indicates a True man. If he lives up to that name, much of the fool days we have been through will cease. Many think be will lead us out oi the dark and senesless way into light and old fashioned American liberty. We have suffered over a million casualties during this war, which we were told was for the preserva tion of our liberties.' but'during which time, and several years be- Realize What America Means We, tie American people, do not realize how richly blessed we are. Our America is the fairest, the rich est the most noble land on the face of this wat ravaged earth. We should try to undetstand and ap predate the tremendous advantage we have over most of the world in being an American. Look at America in contrast to the rest ot the world. Look at A- merica and see what you see Look at her beautiful rolling hills cover- with great towering magestic trees. Look at the fertile fields flourish, with rich harvest. Look at her great prairies. Look at her great cities whose streets are clean, and whose shops are filled. No where can you find rubble and craters left by bombs and shells. Now look at Europe, at Africa, at Asia. Look at the mess, the filth, the ruin. Look at the cities lying In tubble, the fields filled with bombs and shell craters. Look at the starvation, death and disease. Yes, look at this and be thank ful for your America, Work td keep. America great, strong and clean. Work to keep for her the good old-fashioned American way of life. Work to keep America free of the foreign ideas that will bring destruction to our way ot life. Work for America where everyone is rich because of their priceless heritage, America! A READER. Army To Release 7,000 Doctors Seven thousand medical officers are scheduled for release in the next nine months under the Army’s peilcy of releasing as many physicians to civilian life as can be spared, the War Department announced. It said 700 doctors have been dis charged since January I. Tbe anuouncement was an appar ent reply to charges in Congress that Army doctors are “surplus” in Europe and the Pacific and demands that such officers should be returned to this country to relieve the civi lian shortage. The War Department said tLat Army policy is to discharge “as many doctors to civilians practice as can be spared bv military need.” Discharge plans, it said, are based on such factors as “requirements ef the service and of the civilian popu lation, the service ratings of the in dividual officers, and their own de sires for release or retention.” AFarmer Who Doesn’t Like It A farmer in Lawrence, Kansas, who has been raising hogs'for more tbau 20 years is placing his brood sows into the fatteniug pens and quitting the business. Hesays that with OPA price control there is no money in the hog business. All that he gets for raising a fattening a lit ter of pigs and the smell, which since it is mixed with the smell of the OPA. is more than he can stand. fore, as Americans we have been bog-tied and deprived of many of the very things for which our fore fathers fought bled and died. As f6r me, I am for the American way of life as it used to be. I am for feeding Amerjcans first. The peo ple who unquestionably won this war should be treated fairly and should have as much sugar as they really need, and then take care of the other fellow. Close up the distilleries in this country and we will have much more of the sweet things of this life which many are craving and de serve to have. Give us tnfn who know what they are doing. Quit placing men to pay political debts and the people will cease to mourn as they are mourning now. G. V. HAWKINS, In Charlotte Observer.

Official Stupidity The new Secretary of Agriculture, Clinton P Anderson, is a two-fisted, plain spoken, open-dealing sort of man.

C. TRUMAN COMMITTEE CARRIES ON Senators Kilgore of West Virginia (Dem.) and Brewster of Maine (Rep.) had an interesting experi ence while probing conditions in Germany for the Mead committee, formerly the Truman committee. Calling at the headquarters of Lt. Gen. Alexander M. Patch, they were received courteously by the general himself, who talked with them for ten minutes, then went off to keep an appointment. The two senators then proceeded with their usual investigation. Set tling down in one of the U. S. mili tary offices, they called in witnesses, and cross-examined them with a stenographer taking down everything that was said. This continued for nearly three hours. Unlike most visitors, Sen ators Kilgore and Brewster seemed intent on really finding out what was happening in that part of occu pied Germany. Finally, Gen. Ar thur White, chief of staff to General Patch, appeared nervously in the background. "Gentlemen,” he said, “ahem . . . this procedure . . . it’s a little un usual. I’m not sime that we can permit you to continue.” “It’s the same procedure we’ve always followed,” replied Senator Brewster. “Yes,” continued Kilgore, “it’s the same procedure fol lowed by this committee under former Chairman Truman.” “You probably recall him,” added Brewster, “he’s now President of the United States.” Next day General Patch him self invited the two senators to dine with him at the villa which he had taken over from a Ger man princess. JUDICIAL EXIT There was a day when everyone in and around the Roosevelt admin istration wanted to be a judge. This ambition was largely precipitated by the Supreme court fight and the fact that the courts in those days had put several obstructive decisions squarely across the path of the New Deal. But now it is just the opposite. There is a growing exit from the courts. Judge Schwellenbach has just resigned from the bench to be secretary of labor. Judge Sherman Minton is itching to get off the cir cuit court of appeals in Chicago. And there will soon be four vacan cies on the court of appeals of the District of Columbia, considered one of the most important courts in the country. Judges Vinson and Thurman Ar nold have already made two vacan cies on this court. Two other va cancies will occur when Chief Jus tice Duncan Groner and Judge Jus tin Miller resign. It may keep the White House busy looking for good men to take their places. • • • ITALIAN UNDERGROUND It is not often that anyone can get a first hand report on the results of psychological warfare direct from his' own family in an enemy coun try. However, Ugo Carusi, director of immigration and naturalization, has had that experience. Carusi came to this country as a small boy from the marble quarries of northern Italy, went to work in the marble quarries of Vermont, and got to know Harlan F. Stone, who brought him to the justice de partment when Stone became attor ney general under Coolidge. And during the war, Carusi has been broadcasting to the Italian people urging them to surrender. With the end of the war, Carusi has received letters from his relatives in Italy telling how his broadcasts helped inspire the battle against the Nazis. "Ugo,” wrote a cousin, “you can really be proud of your relatives here in Italy. From the oldest down to that little, charming young lady (Carusi’s 10-year-old niece) you were always so happy to hold in your lap while in Carrara, they have proven themselves to be great patri ots. "One of your cousins, the brother of Enrico, was the colonel who led a Partigiani band in the capture of Carrara from the Germans last No vember. From that time on, the Partigiani controlled all the public offices in the town. The caves with which you are familiar were used to good advantage by the Partigiani, and the Nazis refrained from reentering the city.” • • « WAR NOTES <L Despite the heavy bombing of the Schweinfurt ball-bearing plant, in side sources reveai that it is in reasonably good condition and with in one month could be producing 50 per cent of its wartime schedule....

Some states, such as Missouri, offer special inducements for farm pools, not only stocking with fish but supply ing at cost shade trees and water plants for the pools.

UNIVERSAL MIUTARY TRAINING MYSTERY WASHINGTON. — No secret meet ings with the military were held by the Woodrum house committee which urged what it called “a broad poliicy of universal military train ing.” No special information concerning difficulties ahead of this nation was privately passed to the committee by the war department which has been promoting the youth draft. Specif ically, no inside scare over Russia inspired the committee. Consequently, considerable per plexity has developed as to how and why it went contrary to the weight of evidence in its own hearings. It seemed to vote 16 to 0 in favor of a program which none - of its hearing witnesses en dorsed, except the army, navy, state departments and the U. S. chamber of commerce, against the popular opposition of nation al educational groups, both ma jor national labor organizations, two of the three national farm organizations, as well as the usual peace societies, and wom en’s groups. To make the mystery more pos sible, one member of the committee says he has received only two let ters from his district in favor of the youth draft, while he has a bushel of mail against it. When congressmen go 16 to 0 (the remaining six members abstained or wanted to delay action but did not vote against the report directly) in favor of something opposed by their constituents and the most powerful lobbies in Washington—labor, farm er, education, women—a miracle is wrought. Woodrum’s Plan This one seems to come within the realm of magic—political magic. It should have been entitled “How to Be a Politician in One Easy Les son.” Caught between the army and the lobbies, the committee favored both opposite courses — in modera tion, of course. Committee Chairman Woodrum tossed all the hot potato evidence he had amassed into the air, then caught and came forward with some conglomeration which steamed in the headlines. Actually it is cold potato salad. His pride in it did not leap even to ordinary bounds as he did not even have it printed in the congres sional record which prints all con gressional thoughts for the asking. Upon close inspection you will find the report did not endorse the war department program but was worded to sound qs if it did, by ap proving “the. principle” and “the broad policy” yet undefined. Among members of the Woodrum committee is Rep. James W. Wads worth of New York, who is supposed to have seen to the wording. He wants to draft all youths of 18 or thereabouts for a year in the army. Talking around with the com mitteemen, you will find many favor a Democratic substitute such as advocated by the Veter ans of Foreign Wars for training boys in schools, without inter rupting their education, expand ing the national guard and re serves systems, and summer camps. The report did not op pose this, excepting it seemed to want the youths drafted for it. The Veterans of Foreign Wars pro gram, following the lines outlined in this column since last September, now rates the best chance of adop tion by congress in the end—with out a draft—but only after more magic and semantics. Next will come a report from the house mili tary affairs committee and this may recommend drafting, as the military totalitarians are in the majority. Home Compulsion! But on the floor of the senate and house today, a majority for a youth draft would be hard to find. Com pulsion for home and school training without a national draft is the ob vious compromise. The army has never come for ward with a specific outline of what it intended to do with the young men if it gets control of them for a year (no one mentions the young women any more and I assume they have been dropped from the army training program.) But retired officers who are going around the country whipping up sentiment in American Legion posts advocate something like this: - Nine weeks’ basic training (bunk- making, setting-up exercises, etc.); 9 weeks of specialists training in 4,000 categories in the army. Eisenhower really proved there must be a citizens’ training system, and urged that the training pro mote co-ordination between the land, sea and air forces. But like Marshall he did not even consider enlarging the national guard, youth camps for summer only, creation of a larger and better officer reserve system, quadrupling West Point and Annapo lis, injection of military courses in high schools and colleges as corn- pulsory subjects—or any of the other many excellent alternatives to the youth draft system, founded by Prussians and adopted by Nazis.

THE STORT THUS FAR: Melody Jones and George Fury bad ridden into Paynevilie. Melody was mistaken for the outlaw, Monto Jarrad. Monte’s girl. Cherry, in trying to save Monte and later Melody, got them involved In tbe murder of Luke Packer, the insurance cop. Fury bad met up with Monte and was shot by Monte. Monte returns to the farm and finds Melody. Cberry re turns with tbe wounded Fury. Some of Monte's men rode up, and In tbe dis tance tbe Cotton's posse bent on taking Monte. The posse started firing and most of tbe men ran to the house. . Mel ody,.Cherry and Fnry stayed In tbe barn. Bales of bay were placed against tbe walls for protection. CHAPTER XVU Cherry de Longpre stared hard at Melody for several moments more, her face blanked by that baffle ment he was able to inflict upqn her. “Now you look here, you com plete fool—” she began, but he in terrupted her. He reached out and closed her jaw for her by lifting her chin with his fingers. “Gal,” he said, in a tone she had never heard him use, “Ifm right sure I’ve heard a plenty from you. So be still, before I turn you across that saddle and spank you pink as an apple.” She went to George now, and helped him drink from the gourd dipper. Once or twice she glanced at Melody furtively; and when she spoke again her words were quiet and rapid. “That other rider is Vir gil Browning. He’s one of Monte’s wild bunch, like Lee Gledhill. Mon te never rode south at all. After we left, Pa and Avery came in, and Lee signalled up Virg-Virg was laying low in the brush, somewhere. They went down to scout the town, and mighty near ran square into the posse. But they rode hard and got loose.” “So now what is their theory?” Melody asked her. “They insist on tangling with the Cottons? Or don’t they aim to be discommoded by jest thirty-forty men?” "They wanted Monte to ride. He wouldn’t do it. He says he isn’t fit to ride a horse race; he’s right. He hopes to stand them off until dark. Then one. hard effort will get him clear. He can lose them, and take it easy after that, in the dark.” “Most likely you told him he bet ter run, and he was too stubborn to be bossed.” She shot him a glance of sur prise. Melody Jones wasn’t expect ed to see through anything like that. Now Avery and Fever Crick de- Longpre made a dash from the house to the bam. No one fired at them. They brought with them the rest of the saddled horses, so that their rush sounded like a cavalry charge. Cherry, said to Avery, “Quitting him now, or thrown out?” No ran cor was iq that; it simply repre sented the kind of expectations Cher ry had in regard to her men folks, after knowing them all her life. Avery took no offense. “We got to hold the barn. We can stand ’em off a decent piece, if they don’t git in the barn.” Immediately the first of the posse came into sight. Just before they appeared Avery said, “Watch it— watch jt—” a kind of a strangled cry such as might come from a man in maid-air; and there was a mo ment of utter silence among the de fenders. Cherry whispered, “Here it is. . . .” Two riders—one of them Lester Cotton—appeared at two hundred yards on the so-called road, coming up over the break of the slope. The horses came over the hump at a walk, their stride unhurried, but giv en a look of power and vigor by the strong climbing thrust of their quar ters. The long shot which had crip pled the gray must have been out side of Lester Cotton’s plan; he was going ahead with his first plan any way, taking a chance of riding bold ly in for a close-quarters arrest. But now a rifle banged from the house, and Lester Cotton’s horse came down heavily, dead before it was still. Apparently it had tossed its head in the nick of the wrong instant, intercepting a bullet intend ed for a center drill on its rider. Lester Cotton pitched himself back wards down the slope out of sight, untouched. The other pony whirled and plunged back the way it had come, with a violent switch of the tail testifying to swift spurring. Then in a swiftly rising increase of fire those quick feathers of gun- smoke began to sprout everywhere —north, south, down-mountain and up-slqpe—long-range, middle-range, and point-blank, all converging into the flimsy walls of house and barn.' The shadows within were lively with jumping splinters, and the smell of powder filled the whole breeze. The attackers had no organization, and little plan; but each of them out there was effective in his own way, fiiii of individual resource. The peo ple in the Busted Nose were sudden ly'the center of an echoing, roaring swirl of fire-attack. “Get down,” Melody ordered Cherry. “Get down, I said!” She was trying to get a look at the ear of the hurt pony, and she fUcked Melody a glance so near con tempt that go-to-hell was unneces sary. Melody reached for her, . caught her shoulder, and spilled her over a hay bale into a slot between tw9 ; 9 therr.. Melody watched hope fully to see if a bullet wouldn’t buzz through the spot where she had stood. It didn’t, though. “That’s the second time you’ve done that!” Cherry started to scramble up furiously, but she caught his eye upon her, and was stopped. After a moment she set tled back, and for the time being stayed where she was, her eyes bewildered upon his back as he turned away. Avery and Fever Crick were slid ing at a running crouch from one wall to another, trying to keep up a semblance of fire on all sides; they desperately feared a rush and didn’t know on which side to expect it, except that whichever way they were turned they felt the threat was at their backs. Between shots they hauled frantically at the hay bales which were their protection against lead. The sleazy walls of the barn hid their movements, but nothing else. They kept trying to shore up the gaps and angles where the bullets were splattering through, but there weren’t quite enough bales to afford a double tier all around, and it had them crazy. Avery, trying to haul a bale to plug one gap, had his coat-tails clipped by a shot that came through the place from which he had taken it; and when he frantically mauled it back where it was before, a slug of lead from still another direction went through the top of his hat from “Here it is,” says Cherry. the side. The rake of gunfire was lacing in brutally, this side, that side, crossways,. lengthways, all sides, with the deadly quartering and spreading of the attack. . “Hard . to see why they aren’t shooting each other,” Fever Crick whimpered. “Where would be the sense?” Avery snarled at him, firing. “If you think them cagey devils don’t know where their shots go, stick your damn head up once, and show ’em a real ricoskip!” “That’s a fine way to talk to your father!” Ihe iron pail which stood by George Fury let out a metallic howl, and began to squirt water both sides. Melody propped it on a slant to save the rest of the water. Every minute now new vulnerabilities were being discovered by those probing, search ing, all-covering guns. One. cluster of rocks three hundred yards above the barn seemed alive with gunners, pouring in a plunging fire that crac kled through the walls and thudded into the hay bales. “They’s about seven fellers in that rock nest alone,” Avery panted. “One feller,” Melody thought. “He’s restless on account of them ant heaps up there, that’s all.” A ricochet from the downhill side snarled through the wall, ripping out a piece of knot-wood beside Melody. He casually put his eye to the new knothole, Ond peered back the way the bullet had come. It was enough to make a man think, to see what those buzz-fly bullets could do to sol id wood. He put his gun muzzle to a crack, belt-high, and, still loqking through the bullet rip, made three unevenly spaced spouts of earth jump up from the crest of the slope. Behind him Cherry aslced in a small voice, “Did you get him?” “Get him? What for I want to get him? I was jest studyin’ to make his aim nervous. I ain't got nothing against some feller out there, withofat T even fcnow who he be. . . I” 1 r He flattened to the hay bales to look slantwise through ' the 'broad door. He saw an undersized figure on a mustang horse break from cov>- er. far-off, making a dash fas a dif ferent rift of brush. The1'rider.put the cayuse in a long winging leap across a coulee. In all the hellish rattle that was going ori you couldn’t tell which gun got him,' excepti.it seemed to be from the- house. The pony went , slack in imd-iump, and sfruqk th,e !opposite lip'of The coulee. in a heap. The rider fell dear and rolled bouncing down the precipitous drop, spread eagled, and grab bing at roots to check himself. Then he also went slack before he stopped, and lay loosely where he came to rest. Cherry gasped, close to Melody’s ear. She was leaning on his shoul der, but until then he hadn’t known it. She whispered, “That was Ho mer Cotton. . . .” George’s mind was wandering now. He said, “I don’t mind rain. I love rain, like any cowman. But in Califomy your Ufe ain’t safe a minute, without you got a cockeyed rowboat on your back. . . .” Along about then a strange inhu man cry soimded in the house; it trailed off in a quaver, and was not repeated. They learned afterward that the luckless Virgil Browning was struck in the jaw, shattering half his face, by a slug that caromed off a stove lid to find him. “A feller can’t see how they Uve, there in the house,” Melody said, “without no hay bales like we got.” “Maybe they ain’t hungry yet,” George said faintly. “The fellers outside want to get in,” George said. He spoke huskily and faintly, but with a slow distinct ness, as if speaking to a child. “The fellers inside want to keep ’em out. Catch on?” “That don’t account for what I’m doing here,” Melody said. “You’re here to git rich. That’s the reason you give, anyway, when you drug us into this. Remember?” His voice died away to almost noth ing. “Leave me know when you think we’re rich enough, so’s we can git the hell out of here. ...” A little after that the first extend ed concentration of fire began to die down. The attackers Were getting cagey, tired of pouring their fire blind into the thin walls, without any apparent lessening of the weaker but still dangerous fire power with in. They settled down to an intermittent sniping at marks which wishful thinking suggested. One determined rush would have laid the outfit flat. But the defense had achieved so spirited an effect that the Cottons’ men never be lieved, either then or ever, how ex tremely few were holding the Busted Nose through those hours. No rush was tried. “Lester Cotton’s wearing a depu ty’s badge,” Cherry said. “I saw it on his shirt.” “Naturally it ain’t on the seat of his pants,” Avery said irritably. Lester Cotton’s badge meant something. The ring of gun-smoke had taken to itself the guise of all the law there was. The people here could have held more hope if they had been a thousand times outnum bered in an Apache raid. Avery and Fever Crick had time now to tally their remaining ammu nition, and went through the in evitable surprise at how much they had used up. Still, they were doing pretty well; if they were prudent they could make it last a few hours yet—perhaps even until dark. Melody began throwing down and hog- tying the horses, taking Harry Hen- shaw first. This involved consider able uproar and thrashing around, but when it was done the ponies were pretty safe for the first time. By the time he was finished the posse seemed to have shaken down into a steady siege, fit to last a week without taxing anybody except the people inside. Some smoke columns from cooking fires began to rise from various points. They could hear more people arriving out there out of sight, some of them in wag ons; there were distant shouts as newcomers hailed each other. It was a wonder where all the people came from, as the news spread. The hills out of gun-range were fill ing up with no-goods and hangers- on, attending for the sake of the excitement and the barbecue. Prob ably there would be political speeches out there, before they were through. Sometimes a quarter of an hour would pass, with no shot fired. But the snipers were still alert; their few shots were accurate as pencil dots. After a while one of them pasted Fever Crick. The bullet caught him slantwise just above the wrist. It was almost spent, and ran erratically up his arm for eight or nine inches just under the skin; no especial damage was accomplished by it. Later he would tell about his remarkable cas ualty a thousand times, until it be came his most used possession. But just now he took it that he was much worse than killed. He moaned pite ously and continuously, and from then on demanded the kind of atten tion deserved by a man who was virtually dying; and made of it an excuse to gulp most of their water up. ' There wasn’t going to be any more water in here when what they had was gone. There wasn’t going to be any food either, or anything else, until this tfflfig should get itself over with. Melody sat on the ground near George with his back against a bale .and.watched Qierry fuss over her father. “I thought I told you to stay down,” he said. She obeyed him without any ques tion'this time. She came and sat on the ground close beside him, look* ing subdued.

D.Of The Moody Bible Instirute of Chicago* Released by Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 12 , Lessm subjects end Scripture text* selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used br permission. ISAAC’S TESTIMONY TO GOD LESSON TEXT—Genesis 26:19-33. GOLDEN TEXT—Blessed be tbe Lord God, the God ol Israel, who only doeth won drous things.—Psalm 72-18. A man of peace in a wartorn world may seem to be a bit out of place, biit he assuredly is not if the peace he has and promotes is the peace of God. Our world has seen anew a dem onstration of the awful results of the philosophy that might makes right. Violence and bloodshed have been man’s way of asserting his supposed or assumed rights. One could hope that we are now ready to recognize that we need a new viewpoint, that patience and meekness are not weakness, that kindness and love are Christian virtues worth emulating and cultivating. That result can come only if men will recognize Christ as the King of their lives and nations will receive His Word as their law. Let us pro claim His truth and the gospel of His grace anew, and win all we can to Him. Isaac was a man of peace. He was a rather ordinary man, one of the common people, but his life is both interesting and instructive. He had come through .varied experi ences of victory and;defeat before the time of our lesson. Fearing a famine, ; and apparently not trust ing God at'the moment, he had gone down from the promised land to the country of the Philistines, there redigging the wells which his father Abraham had dug. The result was that he prospered. Ere long, how ever, envy on the part of his ene mies taught Isaac that one may expect I. Strife in the World (w . 19-21). Isaac had prospered, but he was still out of the promised land, and while he was in the land of Philis tines he could expect no permanent peace. We are in the world. We long for peace, and would throw all our in fluence and service into the cause of bringing a righteous peace to the troubled peoples of the world. But let us not be misled by that desire into the support of unscriptural and impossible peace programs. This world is a sinful world, and as long as that is true, there will be strife and war.Our business in such a world is to .preach the gospel of grace, win ning menrto Christ, that they may become men of good will. Isaac was such a man, willing to yield even what seemed to be his right, rather than cause contention. Undoubtedly there are times when one must defend his name and his possessions, but all too often those who do “stand for their rights” have wrecked homes, churches, and na tions, and have gained nothing but an empty victory. The peace of this world is tem porary. Is there then no real abid ing peace and joy? II. Joy in God’s Fellowship (w. 22-25). When Isaac came up into Canaan, the land which God had promised to him, he found real peace and an abiding joy in renewed fellowship with God. Even so, the' Christian man and woman who will step out of a spiritually destructive fellow ship with the ungodly world and come over wholeheartedly into the spiritual Canaan of full consecration and separate living, will find true peace and satisfying communion with God. m . Testimony in Right Living (w. 26-31). These men were wicked men, even speaking falsehood in their claim of friendship toward Isaac (v. 29). Now that they perceived that God was continually blessing Isaac in spite of their repeated injustice to ward him, they decided it would be well to make a covenant of friend ship witn.him. Even those who follow thq. way of war and aggression cannot deny the effectiveness of true Christian testimony. Observe also that by his patience and kindness, Isaac ultimately made friends out of his enemies. “It is better to turn enemies into friends than to beat them, and have them enemies stiff.” And so this man with the patient, self-sacrificing spirit brought peace not only to him self, but to those about him, because he believed and trusted God. “When a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him” (Prov. 16:?). IV. Blessmg in Service (w . 32, 33). The thing to do when the selfish ness of others is about, to cause strife is to go and “dig another well.” If we will do that, we will find that God has been there ahead of us and prepared a. rich flow of fresh water with which we may re fresh and encourage ourselves. . Isaac’s men said, “We have found water," and he then named the place Beersheba, which means "the well of the oath,” referring undoubt edly to God’s- fulfilled promise to bless him. He had found the way of peace, fellowship and blessing, because he had gone God’s way.

Mrs. L.

Right now—August 3— is tbe time to prepare the garden for a fall and winter crop —cabbage, collards, beets, fresb snap beans, radishes, turnips for greens, kale, mustard and lettuce.

The fruit is prepared as shown here, by chopping coarsely before being added to the other in gredients. ;. . Lack of sugar need be no excuse for not putting up those mouth- w atering jam s and jhllies " this summer. If you look far enough., ahead,* these de lectable f r u i t combinations can be the .means of easing up another shortage—that of butter. __ One of two ways may be used for maintaining the traditional time-honored jam and jelly cupboard. First of all, the limited . sugar supplies can be stretched by using light com syrup for sweetening. Or, secondly, fruit and berry juice may be pasteurized while the season is in full swing, and made into jams and jellies lat er in the year as sugar is secured. What about the texture of jellies and jams made of pasteurized fruit and berry juice? It will not be af fected, tests show. Color and flavor may not be quite as good, but is generally fair. When com syrup is used as a sub stitute for part of the sugar, the com syrup should be added to the fruit along with the sugar. If direc tions for the substitution of com syrup for sugar are followed as giv en ip the recipe, the jams and jel lies will set favorably. Also, when com syrup is used, die recipe will yield from one to two additional glasses of jam or jelly. , Note: The corn syrup designated in the following recipes is white com syrup. Bipe Peach Jam (Makes about 12 6-ounce glasses) 4 cups- prepared fruit S1A cups sugar 2 cups light com syrup ■? I ,bottle , fruit pectin To 'prepare fruit, pit and peel about 3 pounds of fully ripe fruit. Grind or chop very fine. If desired, I to 3 tablespoons spice may be add ed. If peaches lack tartness, Vl cup lemon juice may be added to the 4 cups prepared fruit. Measure sugar, syrup and prepared fruit, solidly packed, into a large kettle and mix well. Bring to a boil over the 'hottest fire stir ring constantly before and while boiling. Boil'hard I m in u te. Re move from fire and stir in bottled fruit pectin. Stir and skim by turns for just 5 min utes to cool slightly and to prevent floating fruit. Four quickly into sterile jars or glasses. ParafiSn hot jam at once. Ripe Bed Raspberry Jam (Makes about 11 6-ounce glasses) 4 cups, prepared fruit Lynn Says: When you make jellies and jams: Wash fruits and berries carefully, discarding bruised or decayed, spots. Cut large fruits in quarters or pieces, or chop for making jams. Fruits like, crab- apples, apples or quinces are not peeled because the peeling con tains much of die precious pec tin content Hurd fruits, like apples and quinces should barely be covered with water. Currants, grapes and berries need only enough water to start cooking. Fruits should be boiled only' until soft, otherwise they lose flavor and color. Melt paraffin until it is smok ing hot and pour over top of jelly after, it has cooled. Rotate glass to make sure edges are coated with paraffin.

Measure sugar! and syrup into a dish and set aside until needed. Ptece juice in a saucepan (3 to 4 quart size). Place over hot fire and add powdered fruit pectin. Mix well and continue stirring until mix ture comes to a boil. Poiur in sug- ‘ ar and Qrrup and bring mixture to a full rolling boil, while continuing to stir. Boil hard Vz minute. Remove from fire, skim, pour quickly. Paraffin hot jelly, at once. Those of you who have enough sugar to spare will enjoy these cher ry preserves which are such an ex cellent accompaniment to meats, fowl and other main dishes. Cherry Preserves, Use from % to I pound sugar to each pound of fruit depending upon the sourness of the cherries. Mix cherries with sugar; let stand over night. Heat slowly to boiling. Boil rapidly 15 to 20 minutes, or until cherries are tender. Let stand until cold. Pack cherries into hot, sterile jars. Boil syrup until thick. Pour hot syrup over the cherries; seal ,at. once. Level measurements are essential to jam and jelly making. When sug ar and com syrup are u$ed, they are added to the fruit together. Half sugar and half syrup are advised for best results. Honey is a good sweetener with some types of fruits. Here are two good delicacies for your winter spreads:Plum Butter. 5 pounds plums Honey Wash plums and remove all blem ishes. Place in kettle and just cover with water. Cook until tender and then put through colander to remove pits and skins. Measure pulp and add Vz cup honey to each cup of plum pulp. Return to fire and cook until thickened. Seal in sterilized jars. Sweet Apple Pickles. 2 cups honey 1 cup vinegar 2 inches stick cinnamon " 6 whole cloves ’ V-1' Apples Combine honey, vinegar and spices. Have ready 8 to 10 cups quartered apples (pared or not, as preferred). Cook 2 to 3 cups apples at a time in the syrup, handling them gently so they do not mash. When transparent, lift out and place in a bowl or jar and continue until all are cooked. Take out spices, pour remaining syrup over apples and store until needed. These may be served with chicken or turkey, meat loaf, roast pork or baked ham. ReIeaxcd by Western Newspaper Union. o r 7CfiMTlANO fi/C E : TXTHEN Tommy Holmes of. ,the v ’ Boston Braves passed BSgers Hornsby’s consecutive hitting record of 33 games, the time seemed to be about right for your correspond ent to look up a few notable records that might last for genera tions, ..i . • j - One of these is Joe DiMaggio’s consecutive hitting record for both leagues that totaled 56 contests. This took place in 1941. DiMaggio began col lecting base hits on May 15 and finally ceased firing on the 16th of July. Any record can be beaten, but this will be a tough one to crack. There are two other almost GrantlandBlce Phantom targ ets that may never be surpassed. One is Lou Gehrig’s con secutive game record that carried on for a matter of 14 years and more than 2,000 contests. It will take a stronger combination of steel and concrete than we have ever seen so far in one human system to pass Lou Gehrig’s mark. This must stand among the incredible features of. sport. Lou began his long march in 1925 and finally came to the end of his career in 1939. The second untouch able mark belongs to Babe Buth and his count of 60 home runs, piled up in 1927. There is another pretty fair ball player by tbe name of Tyrus Ray mond Cobb who has to his cyedit a different set of figures that no one now living will ever see equaled. This record includes a lifetime total of 2,244 runs and 4,191 hits. Jimmy Foxx and Hank Greenberg almost caught up with Ruth’s home run accumulation of 60 in a season, but no other ball player has even come close to Cobb’s double mark. Tliis same record also includes 392 stolen bases, well beyond Eddie Col lins’ turn of 744.: Cobb, Buth and Gehrig, all Ameri can Leaguers, complete the trio that offers the toughest targets on the batting side of the game. And when you mention the two greatest ball players of all time, Cobb and Ruth draw most of the votes although Hans Wagner still has a stout follow ing that refuses to be shaken loose. Mel Ott is the most redoubtable of the National League record holders at bat—and Mel is still under way and increasing his lead. Mel sets a record of some sort every time he gets another hit or steps into another home run—insofar as the National League is concerned. Stand-Out Pitchers Walter Johnson, another American Leaguer, is the pitcher that stands out as the main all-time target to knock over. But for all that even Old ,'Barney isn’t so far in front of Cy /Young. In fact, looking a trifle deeper into the matter, Young’s mark may outlive all others. It con sists largely of these figures—games pitched—906, games won—510. When you figure that Walter Johnson is in second place, 97 winning games away at 413, you get a better idea1 of Cy’s miraculous contribution to. the art of piling up victories. One of Johnson’s top marks is the count of 56 consecutive scoreless innings, compiled in 1913. That means something better than six straight shutouts. For a career run Johnson also sets up two other tar gets with' 3,497 strikeouts and 113 shutouts, 23 beyond Grover Alexand er’s total. But Old Pete must be drawn into - this select society with the pitching he offered in 1916. That season, working in Philadelphia’s bandbox ball park, where a looping fly was usually a homer, Alexander turned in 16 shutouts—more shutouts in one season than most pitchers can call winning games. The two marks of 19 consecutive victories established by Tim Keefe and Bube Marquard of the Giants, form another elusive target that many have fired at through the years in vain. There was no record ever set that can’t be broken. But those referred to in these brief dispatches are something more than records. They are landmarks. Even peering into the future, what batter is there to pile up 4,191 base hits? Or what pitcher can ever ,hope to win 510 games? Or what iron man can out last Gehrig’s 14 seasons of consecu tive play? These are the three toughest of them all to shatter or drive away from the record pages. For all three call not only for ex treme skill but also for the qmas-' ing stamina that few ever possess, Eisenhower, Ball Playefi'' , Dear Grant—I just checked over an old Reach Guide, 1910, and found this concerning a player by the ham'e of Wilson, General Eisenhow er’s alias while playing with Abilene in the Central Kansas League, sea son of 1909.

First, he has to lean} how to fit into his immediate family, learn the give-and-take neces sary to get along with brothers, sisters, elders. Then, after a few years, his world enlarges, he is sent to school. Pretty soon he learns how to speU C-A-T. B ut about Vds same tim e he learns some thing much more valuable, which is Viat he mustn’t putt Vie ca£s tail because a cat is a being, mid therefore entitled to certain in alienable rights. < He also learns that I plus I equals 2. B ut much more useful is learning that 48 equals I , Viat 48 states make I nation, indivis- 1 ibfe, With liberty and justice for all. ”*■ As Andy grows up his world will continually expand. At ' church, at school, in business. And through it all will run the along with people of different re ligious, political and economic beliefs; with people some of whom he doesn’t even like. But—the tragedy of world history is that the Andy Grib- bins have not learned that in a ,constantly shrinking world, co operation must extend beyond the borders of the country; that just as it is necessary to get along with neighbors and neigh bor states, so is it necessary to get-along with neighbor nations. And today, with no spot on earth more than sixty hours away by plane, with oceans shrunk to the width of rivers, with the age of rocket-travel upon us, all nations are neighbor nations. There are hopeful signs that finally we axe awake to this. Even so, a lack of determina tion, of responsibility, of effort coiM again ruin the peace and set the stage for World War 3.

Peace In Europe is really felt in England; terror and bloodshed eeased for a time—for a long time we hope. Britain’s post-war prob lems are upon her. and they are al most exactly like ours will be when our war I? over In the Pacific. There is however one big difference. The difference lies in what the working people think. British labor is socialistic, hi large part; Ameri can labor is not. The British work ers don't think they fared very well under the system in which private capital owned the factories and pri vate management operated them in so-called competition. English la borers figure they would be better off if the government owned everything. Workers Prosper Workers in America still favor the system of free enterprise. Most of our labor is In favor of open com petition. The reason is that working people in America see how they have fared all right with private en terprise. Labor leaders express themselves freely in favor of capi talism. Our workers probably will not turn against the American sys tem since it has not turned against them. .Nobody has the working people of either country fooled. They have the truth in both cases. In Eng land, labor has had a pretty shabby deal; In America the worker has lived well. The important question is this; British workers oppose capi talism and American workers favor it—can it be possible that they are talking about the same thing? Have Same Name Prior to World War Q, the eco nomic system in Britain was called private enterprise — same P3 in America. Moreover, the two were quite a little alike, at first glance, ,except that wages on this side of the ocean were high and American workers earned more than twice as much as the British workers, trade for trade. The difference was that private enterprise In Britain was not free. Private enterprise in England was hog-tied. Competition there was not actually open. Wastefiii monopolies operated within the law. Private business concerns were fenced in with legal restraints on this and government restrictions on that. What they had was government- bossed private enterprise. Business men couldn’t make any money and therefore couldn’t pay their work ers. Socialistic LaborWorking as hard as they could, British workers could not earn enough to live well. They needed new tools and modern methods so they could produce more; so their employers could pay them better, but the employers couldn’t buy bet ter tools. They were so restricted that they couldn’t make any profit. Result; Labor unions formed a so cialist party and now are bidding strongly for control of the govern ment for the third time. The same thing can happen here. America can keep free private en terprise and the prosperity that goes with it. With prosperity and progress, American firms can pay their workers well. But silly restric tions and heavy taxes can choke out profits. Without profits there will be no new tools, n, progress, no better wages. Unhappy workers bring so cialism. Socialism, nowhere in the world, has brought wages half as high as America now enjoys. yedal Pushers’*' Help Buy Bonds ■ A s - * v v -SkJ-C ?* Ideal for sports and kind to less- than-perfect figures are these "pedal pushers.” They make colorful cos tum es.

Prosperity of The Righ- teon« People Rev. Walter E. kenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. The writer of the first Psatm, speaking of the godly, says: “ What soever he doeth shall prosper.” This is a wonderful statement. We know the writers of the Holy Bible dealt in facts, not falsehoods and fairy tales. Since this is a fact, it looks like everybody would desire to live godly, righteous lives in stead of ungodly lives. The writer of this Psalm says that the godly “shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringetb forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” Then he goes on to say, “The ungodly are not so; but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judg ment, nor sinners iq the congrega tion of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish/’ We see by this Scripture, as well as many other passages In the Bi ble, tbat the godly, righteous and Christlike have wonderful promises and assurances made unto them, and concsrning them On the oth er hand we likewise see that the ungodly and wicked are warned and warned of the fearful judg ments that shall come upon them unless they turn from their evil, sinful, wicked wavs, repent, seek God and live for him O that the ungodly and wicked would take heed to the warning given them! Why not? No one can afford to live for the devil and go the broad way that leads to hell. AU who do so sacrifice everything that is blessed, good, great, worth while, honorable and glorious. How wonderful to live godly and rigbteonsly so we are prospered by our heavenly Father. “ Whatso ever he doeih shall prosper.” This can be In the temporal affairs of life but especially is it true spiri tually, Glory to God. It is good to prosper in one’s business, when it is pleasing unto God. and pros per in one’s undertakings; but the greatest and most wonderful pros perity is that of the soul, and In the spiritual realm. Such prosper ity is not only for time, but it is for eternity. When one is conse. crated end devoted nnto God, and goeth forth to live for and work in His harvest fields, then be is pros* perous. God blesses him and makes him a wonderful blessing to man kind. Hallelujah! Weed Barn Blazes Cause Big Losses A c nsiderale loss of money is sus tained annually bv North Carolina tobacco farmers when barns filled with tobacco born.’ but a few pre> cautions against fires would prevent a tremendous amonnt of worry and money, says David S. Weaver, ex- tension Bgricalturai engineer o f State College. A survey of some tobacco barn fires in 1944 reveals that the re placement cost would be about $400 each, with an average loss of $700 for each fire. Professor Weaver Dnints out The three important causes of fires In tobacco barns are: I Tobacco leaves falling on the flues and furnace. 2. Defective flues and furnaces. 3 Inaidequate and un safe foundations. Professor Weaver suggests the following methods of fire proven tion: Careful selection of sticks of proper lengths a n d sufficient strength, together with the correct looping and hanging of the tobacco on the sticks. The placing of poul try wire netting directly over the furnace and flues might be of con siderable value in reducing fires Our boys must keep on fight ing—we must keep en bay ing WAB BONDS until vic tory 1» won. Keepm BACK ING THE ATTACK. Get The Facts Whether Senator Wherry or Dr. D. A. Fitzgerald of the War Food administration had the correct fi gures as to how much butter spoil ed In government warehouses and had to be sold to soap manufac turers. tbe exact amount should be determined and published to allay a growing suspicion on the part of the public that the absence of but ter from tbe stores and the high ra. point value placed on it were the results more of mismanagement than of actual scarcity. Dr. Fitzgerald says he does not believe more than 3.000 pounds of butter out of 3 ,000,000 bad to be sold for soap. Senator Wherry says he heard it was 170.000 pounds. That makes quite a discrepancy that should be cleared up, for a public already impatient with the stupidity of government food authorities will be naturally inclin ed to believe that the Senator is nearer the truth. This is not the first report of food spoilage in government ware houses or as a result of bureacra- tic bungling. The story tbat great quantities of eggs that the government had hoarded had to be thrown away was fairly well authenticated, and it is difinitely known that carloads of potatoes rotted on the tracks for lack of ice that the bureaucrats would not allow tbe shippers to use. If there is an actual scarcity of any article of food, tbe people will take it in good humor, as they al ways have. But, as long as they are suspi cious that bureaucratic stupidity is tbe cause of a large part of our food troubles, they will not be so conscious tbat bureaucratic stupi dity is the cause of a large part of our food troubles, they will not be so conscientious as they might be in co-operating with conservation plans. Hence, this question of the ran cid butter should be definitely set tled before the public develops an other grievance against the War Food administration. — Charlotte Observer.

They Planned This One For You, Too The onlv person to whom the cur rent shortage of sugar should be a surprise are the little minds in Washington who call themselves planners, suggests the Chicago Tri bune. The sugar trade has been warning the planners of an impending short age for two years or more. Its warnings have gone unheeded. A- merican sugar producers have pro tested in vain against continued ap- application of quotas limiting their production, under the policy ori ginated as part of Henry Wallace’s scarcity economics. Producers in Cuba were discouraged from in creasing their production. They were told that if they raied more sugar, transportation wouid not be avail able to move it to the market. Now the nation i s suddenly in formed that there is a great need for sugar in the liberated countries of Europe. That, of course, is some thing that a planner couldn’t possi bly have forspen. As usual, it is the American consumer who pays for tbe shortsightedness of his own public officials. Awarded Medal With the 14th Airborne Division in Luzon. July 16 (DeIayed)-Pfc. Cbas. W.

Editor Davle Record:—Did you ev er slop to think just what the true meaning ot war really Is? To you, on the home-fronts war can mean many different things, maybe to a few. tne gain of millions, or maybe win themselves’a fame for the fast production of ships or what have you. Then to some, it means a long and most unbearable separa tion from their friend or husband. Next comes the mother, the moth er to that soldier who was killed in the last battle. The-e, my friends, is tbe first taste of war. Those are the ones that suffer most, and not the one that couldn’t get that last gallon of gas to make that tour be had so long planned. That tripcan wait hut tbat mother’s heart will never be mended. In her last days she will be praying to God wanting to know why it had to happen to her son. I have fought through several battles and have heard the desper ate cries of many a poor hungry soul as they were gasping for their last breath. Did they want to die? No. They wanted to live as much as you or I. They wanted to see their new baby, the one tbat was horn just after tbeir separation. Sure, I’ve been tired, so tired that I could hardly see, but could I sleep? No, we had work to do. We had fox-boles to dig, guard to pull, wounded to care for, dead men to bury, ammunition to carry, food to get. bridges to build, keep warm without fires, and a million other things. Then just as it came your turn to sleep tbe orders would be sent down. “Attack in 30 min utes.” A million thoughts crowd vour brain. ’‘The war is almost over and I am almost home. But who knows, the next shell might get me. I don’t want to die, no not when it’s almost over.” Youcould see your mother and just tHe way she looked when she kissed you and said, “Be careful son, and be a good boy. ” 0 , she is such a good mother.

Road To Poverty The question of tax reduction rests entirely in the hands of the bands of tbe people. The Nation al City Bank ot New York sums the situation up accurately when it says that tbe extent ot the reduc tion in the tax rates will depend on how far tbe people are willing to go in reducing government spend ing : fter the war. The Bank says: “The American people need to get out of the habit of trying to solve every economy problem by running to government for some kind of subsidy or financial guarantee, the sum totals of which easily run up to staggering amounts.” Taxes will go higher if individ uals and communities persist in asking public hand-outs fiom gov ernment, instead of being self-sup porting.—Ex.

U HITLER IN PATAGONIA It may take a long time to find out whether Hitler and his bride Eva Braun escaped to Patagonia. The country is a series of vast Nazi- owned ranches, where German is spoken almost exclusively and where Hitler could be hidden easily and .successfully for years. The ranches in this southern part of Argentina cover thousands of acres and have been under Nazi management for generations. Be cause of absolute German control, it would be impossible for any non- German to penetrate the area to make a thorough investigation as to Hitler’s whereabouts. Along the coast of Patagonia, many Germans own land which con tains harbors deep enough for sub marine landings. And if submarines could get to Argentine-Uruguayan waters from Germany, as they def initely did, there is no reason why they could not go a little farther south to Patagonia. Also there is no reason why Hitler couldn’t have been on one of them. Note—On December 15, 1943, this column reported that “Hitler’s gang has been working to build up a place of exile in Argentina in case of de feat. After the fall of Stalingrad and then Tunisia, they began to see defeat staring them in the face. That was their cue to move in on Argen tina.” The same column also cited chapter and verse regarding Ger man-trained officials who ruled the new Argentine dictatorship. At San Francisco, Nelson Rockefeller and Jimmy Dunn insisted that the U. S. A. recognize Argentina. Note 2—If it ever comes to iden tifying Hitler, Dr. Robert Kempner, former German police official now living in Lansdowne, Pa., has the answers. Kempner, who was in charge of the investigation after Hit ler’s beer hall putsch, says that Hit ler’s right thumb is abnormally long, his right ear pointed on top, and his mouth is very receding. Kempner has turned over his data to U. S. authorities.• . * MYSTERIOUS PEACE FEELERS It’s being kept very hush-hush, but something important is brewing behind the scenes regarding peace with Japan. Highest officials won’t say a word about it, not even to some of their cabinet colleagues. However, peace feelers which have come from the Japs have been much more than feelers—despite Secretary Grew’s denials. One of them was debated by the combined chiefs of staff for more than a week. It proposed that the Japs withdraw from Korea and Manchuria and all China if (I) they could keep the em peror, and (2) they would not be invaded. Meanwhile, Joe Grew and the army and navy have prepared a directive outlining the minimum terms we would accept from the Japs. This is one of the most high ly guarded documents in the gov ernment. However, it can be stat ed on high authority that the Grew peace plan would permit the Japs to retain Emperor Hirohito. It can also be stated that there is considerable difference of opinion inside the administra tion regarding the Grew memo randum, and some of his col leagues inside the state depart ment, including Assistant Secre tary Will Clayton and Assistant Secretary Dean Acheson, are vigorously opposed. The whole situation is in a state of flux, and anything can happen overnight. * • * INSIDE JAPAN fl, Jap workers are now being drilled for home defense at noon hours, some even using pointed sticks as spears. C, The Japanese railroads are being tom to pieces by B-29s. Rail junc tions are clogged for days before traffic can clear through them. C Jap prisoners taken in Burma, Indo-China and the Dutch East In dies haven’t the ghost of an idea as to what is happening in Japan. They can’t believe that U. S. forces are steaming close to the Jap mainland, still believe the Jap navy will reopen supply lines to the South Pacific. C There is considerable debate in side the U. S. high command re garding the necessity for landing in China. Some think a Chinese in vasion is necessary to protect our in vasion flank when we land in the main Jap islands. Others believe a Chinese invasion would only use tight shipping and result in unnecessary casualties. The easiest way to aid China, they argue, is to defeat Japan quickly, not get bogged down with a long fight on the Chinese mainland. fl. The entire Jap administrative sys tem has broken down. The Japs have now decentralized their gov ernment so every area has its own war production board, its own local defense system, even its own local tax collections. C. We have also mined Jap harbors so Jap merchant vessels can hardly get through. . . . Despite the claims of cleaning up northern Luzon, stiff fighting continues. The Japs are :beaten but they don’t know it. They 'are still making things tough for MacArthur's men—despite -official ^Communiques.

WNU Waskingtoa Bareta 621 Uniaa TnutBailiiap Women and W ar Work /"'1OUNTY seats and other rural towns and communities can number into the thousands the wom en and girls who are commuting or have moved to larger cities to take up war work of one kind or another and join the labor force of 18 mil lion women now employed in the country. As one of many examples, a huge radio plant at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, employing thousands of workers is “manned” almost exclusively by women recruited from the small towns and rural districts in the counties surrounding Cedar Rapids. What will happen to these wom en and girls from these rural com munities when reconversion starts in earnest? Will they stay in in dustry, or will they return to their homes? The Women’s Bureau of the Department of Labor is seeking answers to these questions in a se ries of surveys now being conduct ed on women in industry. The labor bureau found, for in stance, that 80 per cent of tile 71,000 women employed in the Dayton- Springfield area of Ohio want their jobs or other jobs after the war. So when 12 million servicemen and women come home, all seeking jobs, and when men are thrown out of work due to cutbacks and other re conversion upsets, will these wom en, many of whom are now union members, be able to hold these jobs? There are today five million more women employed than there were in 1940, but census records show that with slight variations, the number of women in labor forces has increased decade by decade. And the bureau of the census states that 1,500,000 of the women- who entered the labor market during the war would have done so had there been no war, while about ZVz million became workers because of war conditions. It then seems that at least these Zbi million women will have to fight to ma.ntain their jobs if they want to remain in employment. Nine Out of Ten In the trade and service industries at least nine out of ten women in dicate they want to retain their jobs when the war ends. This is in com parison with three out of four in the manufacturing industries. As a result of this tremendous surge of American women into all fields of employment, there is now underway among these workers a drive for pay rates based on the job, and not on sex of the worker. For instance the National Industrial Confer ence board asserts that in 25 selected industries, men’s aver age hourly earnings in all occu pations are 50 per cent higher than those of women and that in unskilled occupations men’s average-hourly earnings topped those of women by 20 per cent. Significant progress, however, is being made by labor organizations to make the equal-pay principle for men and women doing' the same jobs effective: In 80 union con tracts covering 75,000 women work ers, one-half were found by a sur vey to have provided equal pay in the contract, although this is not in itself sufficient to prevent discrimination entirely. Equal Rights Proposed In addition to this drive for equal pay for men and women workers there is now in the congress a pro posed amendment to the Constitu tion which seeks . to secure equal rights for women, whatever that means. Both the Democratic and Republican political platforms are on record in favor of such an amend ment and the house judiciary com mittee has approved the proposal. The suggested amendment proclaims that “equality of rights un der the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of Sex.” There is no denying the fact that in some states women are subject to legal discriminations that should be abolished, but those who have stud ied this proposal believe that its pas sage or adoption would eliminate all the protective and preferential laws which have been enacted in behalf of women. These include limited working hours for women, prefer ential health and medical laws, sup port for the wife and many other laws enacted for the particular protection and benefit of women. Opponents assert that only time, education and changing public opin ion can assure women a fair deal in the competitive labor field, where 18 million of them are now em ployed. 11 such a constitutional amendment were adopted, the con tention is that not only would all state and federal laws that give spe cial protection to women be wiped out, but it would be impossible to provide future protection without ex- tending a like protection to men, who may not want it.

Monto returns to the ,farm and finds Melody. ;-£he?ry soon re* : turns with the wounde&-Fury. Some of .Monte’s men rode'up, hard pressed by . the posse. Firing started on all sides. ; Melody took charge In the barn* saw ,•that Fury and Cherry got down behind : the bales of hay. Without water or food they knew that they could not withstand the attack for many days. , CHAPTER XVIH George s.aid dimly, - “If it only- wasn’t for the climate of Califor-Jly -” .... , . “He blames everything on he got ti'et oncet, "and shrunk his joints, or something,” Melody explained this to !Cherry. “He says California ain’t A state at all—it’s a dang fish tank. George, I’ll, buy you some liniment. Now shut up.”- • Melody had got hold of a knife and a piece of manzanita root, which he Was carving into a mestook.> It ap peared to represent some kind of a fish face, but with a long nose, three legs, and wings. When Cherry saw that he appeared to be absorbed in his carving, she leaned against his shoulder,-gradually, as if she hoped she wJuld not be noticed. Melody stopped carving on his mestook. He was thinking of old Mrs. Rowntree, who might have laid her head down on her rifle, in the exact spot Cherry had showed him. He could picture that, just as plainly as if it had ever happened. And he could picture something else, that hadn’t happened yej: ' He could sfee Cherry’s head laid’qmet' dit a bale of moldy hay, with the wavering firelight reflected on Iier spread-out hair. “George,” Melody said, “I ain’t a-going to be able to git it done. I’ve ■went to work'and fell down again. I kind: of thought I would. But I had to try.” “Try what?” Cherry asked. : “He taken and set out to bust up Monte’s wild bunch,” George said. ‘‘He said he wanted to be somebody.” . Cherry stared at Melody. “I reckon it was right silly,” Mel ody said. “I see now that no such thing could be. But that wasn't why I rode Monte’s saddle into Payne- yille.” “Theq why—” Melody looked at her mournfully, "but without self-consciousness. “You •was all tangled up in Monte’s devil ments,’’- he said to her. “I could see there wasn’t no way to talk sense into your haid, gals being like they be.; So, it seemed like the only w^ay to get you out was just to bust up the whole thing.”“Is that why you rode down to Payneville,1 -when you knew you ■ought to go over the hill?” .“Whut did you think it was? Oh, I see. 1 You thought it was the thou sand dullers. . . . Well, it won’t matter much, no more. The wild bunch is gitting busted, all right. But you’re still in the middle of it, bad as bad can be. And there ain’t jjiuch left to do about it, seemingly.” . ;*‘I give up,” George said. His words trailed off in such a blur that Cherry and Melody looked at ■each other.’ Cherry got her feet un der her and moved to George’s side, but: without straightening! up. She laid a hand on his forehead and looked uncertain; then placed her lips, to his temple to see if there was fever there. Melody felt again that disarming surprise, that a woman should take pains over some old nian whom she hardly knew. ' Fever Crick was whining for wa ter again, and Cherry took it to him. “Why does this happen to a man like me,” he whimpered, “that would have fit ’em to a standstill? Why can’t they hit a no-good punk like that Jones, that ain’t worth his room to nobody?” For once Cherry answered him in a tone that would have cut the hide off a mule.-“He’ll be hit soon enough,” she said, “and when he is, you'll be flab bergasted—because you’ll get a look at a man who can act a little dif ferent from a squaw papoose!” There was quiet now'for some lit tle time. Kie widespread, tremen dously overmanned posse: was get ting ready to try something, else, but those within could not judge what it would be. Melody finished his job of carving on the plank, and he sig naled Cherry to come to him .: ' Even when she had looked at it, she; did not understand what it -was, at first. “It’s a tombstone, kind of,” Mel ody. said sheepishly, “in case it’s needed, after while.” Carved deeply into' the oak were ■fife words: ' I BE DAMN IF I AIM TO STAND FOB THIS. GEORGE FURY. .' .ilAll of his life he’s harped on that one string,” Melody explained. '4I know this is the way he’d feel about ,it, if te realized he was being buried.’’ “ ‘Damn if I aim to stand—’ ” Cherry read; and burst innto tears. “This time he’s right,” Melody said, “for this one time.,They gone too far! We cain’t stand for it. Not even from Sfonte.” He turned the slab face down. “But—but Monte—” -He Shookr his head. “From Monte IeasJ of all.” He walked across and counted George Fury’s pulse; then he propped up George’s head with a swathe of Jiay1 and turned George’s face foward*a crack in the wall. “What are you doing that for?” “He—he might want to see.” “See?” SheTwas turning panicky. “See what?” -1’ “Jest a kind of—thing—here . . .” Methodically Melody checked the loading of jtis fitit, and when this was done he stared at her steadily for a disconcertingly long time. “Look,” Melody said to her. “This one time, listen to me. You’re pret ty, and you’re sweet. Don’t you nev er doubt yourself no more. Because anybody would love you, always, any tithe. Don’t you ever forget that, any more.” He grinned. “You don’t have to lean on no pistol-punk, like him. That’s ridic’lous.”He turned away from her, and walked to the door of the bam. He stood there a moment in the sun light, almost in the open. “Where you going?” Avery de manded. “What you up to now?” “Nothing," Melody said. "Nothing you can hinder, son.” . Melody, stepped out into the open, gun in hand, exposed to the house and to the hills. He raised his He groped around on all fours, and found his gun. voice as drivers shout to lift mules. “You, Monte! Monte Jarrad!” There was a moment of dead si lence; the attackers held paralyzed, taken by surprise. Then one bullet flew over, lisping “Thweet!” as it passed overhead; but it went very high, as if file gun had been struck up. Some voices out there were heard yelling to hold fire. Monte Jarrad opened the door of the kitchen,'and stood in its frame. His face could not be seen clearly, there in the shadow, but he was moving very slowly, IUce a man in a fever dream. Behind Melody Cherry screamed, “No, no, no. . .” Melody called out, “Take care of yourself, Monte! ” ' Monte’s gun came up; but instead of firing he half lowered it again. His left hand moved over and seemed to- feel of the gun, as if something had gone wrong there, and he didn’t know what it was; but Iiis astounded eyes did not leave Melody. ; ; Melody fired without effect. He knew where his shot went. Even without seeing the splinters jump from the door jamb, he knew it wasn’t any good. He was concen trating everything he had on putting a shot where he wanted it; but he never had had any way of doing that, and he had no way now. He walked closer. Instantly after Melody’s first shot Monte fired; He fired from belt-level, and he leaned into it, as if trying to put his weight behind the starting of the bullet. His whole body curved to it, with the effort of will that was behind the lead. Melody faltered, but he did not go down. He came ahead, walking steadily. Melody fired again, and missed dean. A clear blaze of fury broke up the blank astonishment of Monte’s face. He fired three times, crazily, as fast as he could drop the hammer. Melody jerked a little and swayed, but kept his feet.. He fired again,:and his shot split the edge of the broken screen door.This wasn’t Monte, firing from -the door, but a different proposition, torn in two by enough crazy anger to poison a bull train. Melody saw that, and he didn’t understand it, but he knew his chance. He knew he had a fraction ,of a second of time now, for he was standing in front of Monte Jarrad, and he was not dead. - He fired, and put a bullet through the top of the door. “Dear God,” he whispered, and it was a prayer. "Dear God, dear God in heaven. . . He put a shot into the kitchen, past Monte Jarrad. Monte had one cartridge left, and he sent it now; and Melody was hit again, this time hard. He half spun, and dropped his-weapon; but he didn’t fall down. He caught him self, and stood for a moment on spread legs. It was only when he tried to catch up his gun out of the dust that he came down on his hands and knees. He groped about on all fours, and found his gun. Somehow he got.up, stumbled forward two steps more, and cocked the gun. A shot sounded behind him, and in the same instant a bullet said “Cousin!” directly in his ear. Monte Jarrad flailed forward onto the gallery, all joints gone loose, as if everything was cut down at once. Melody could not believe it at first. When he had got it through his head he backed off .watchfully, his heels dragging in the dirt. Lee Gledhill was still in action in the house; but Lee did not take him under fire. George Fury was prone in the bam door, collapsed from a crawl ing position, the carbine in the dust by his hand. Melody said,' “George, how many times I got to tell you—” He let it go, speech being considerable effort, and George being three-quarters out and not listening. Fever Crick was standing around stunned and use less, and Avery was just coining to his senses, but somehow Cherry and Melody got George Fury back into shelter. “That’s the first time,” Melody said vaguely, “I ever knew George to fire left-handed. . . The girl caught the carbine up, as if she were rescuing something alive. “You—you imagine it.” Sud denly she dropped the carbine in the dirt, covered her face, and sat down. Melody stepped toward her, lurching a little; he reached out 9 hand, and touched her hair. “Don’t touch me,” she said, and Melody took his hand away. “Don’t ever touch me!” Melody Jones stepped back, look ing befuddled. He swayed a little, and sat down slowly, his back against a bale.44TTpolr ** lift ea{i4 A little after that, Lee GledhiU walked out and surrendered, Lester Cotton taking over. At the heart of Payneville rose ad unceasing tireless gabble, in the name of investigation, while every body and his brother questioned Melvin Jones, alias Melody Jones— and forced him to answer, too, on pain of unhopeful consequences—for three long everlasting weeks. . . . They turned him loose at last, and he rode out to the Busted Nose morosely, nursing a grouch for al most the first time in his life. He still had one arm in splints; and he was bandaged in places, under hia clothes. George Fury was still out there, for the reason that there wasn’t any way to move him. He was still flat on his back, and getting blanket* sore around the shoulder blades, but he was on the mend all right, to judge by his conversation. “So you finally sobered up,” were his first words to Melody. “They only just now cut me loosf,” Melody said glumly. “And you already knowed that, without I said it.” “What all went on down there? How. many counts was you accused on, and how did you lie clear?” “They brung a open verdict. That’s the legal way of putting that they ended up confused, kind of.” “I know that much, you nump! But what happened?” “Listen, George,” Melody said wearily, “my ears is wore thin. I cain’t stand to hear all that stuff over again, not even in my own voice. You can go down and read the damn records some time. Or else send down some pack mules and git ’em hauled up here. Allow for a short ton.”"It beats me,” George said. “I never see such a town for kicking away their opportunity. I’d of swore they’d hang you. What did they say when they unloosed you?” “They said, ‘Goodbye.’ ” George gave it up then. He glared at Melody for a while. “But the re ward—you anyway got the reward?” “Whut reward?” George Fury whimpered inarticu* “Oh, the thousand dullers,” Mel ody remembered. “Thet. Well, they give it to me.”“Why in hell didn’t yew say so?” “Well, George, you see, I give it back.” “Wha— Why, yew befewzled—” “I jest didn’t figure it was coming jto me, George.- You can go git it yourself, when you’re abler. I’m sick of them jiggers.”It was some time before George could speak. He turned his face to the wall, chewed his mustache, .and prayed for the strength to get up and kill Melody. He was under, control, though, when he turned back. “After I turned back the thousand dullers,” Melody said, “they come up with a bill for my board. 0 ' course I couldn’t pay-it.- So they held me in the jail three days more, on a charge of vacancy. Or some thing like that.” (TO BE CONTINUED) S IMPROVED U NIFORM INTERNATIONAL UNDAy ICHOOL Lesson By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D.Ol The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.

MCOB REALIZES THE PRESENCE OF GOD LESSON TEXT-Genesb 28:10-23. GOLDEN TEXT-The Lord is nigh tmto all them that call upon Him, to all that call upon Him in truth.—Psalm 145:18. Crises bring out the real qualities of man. When they lead him into the very presence of God, they be come an experience, the remem brance of which can bring blessing all through life. Jacob had .such an experience in our lesson, and it is the more re markable because he was a man whose life was far from commendable. His mother, Rebekah, had de termined that Jacob was to have Isaac’s blessing, even though she bad to use falsehood to get it. Jacob shared the deception planned by his mother, and thereby he received the blessing of Esau. Not willing to wait God’s time for the carrying out of His purpose, they sinned to gain an advantage. Then to escape the wrath of Esau, he had to flee. I. A Revelation of God’s Grace (w . 10-15). The fugitive was overtaken by darkness on the second night of his journey, and made his bed in the open. Then came the magnificent vision of the ladder to heaven. Heaven and earth are not separat ed. There is a way to reach the throne of God, and there is a way for God to reach and bless His peo ple. The .vision of the ladder reassured Jacob. God renewed to Jacob the cov enant with Abraham and with Isaac. He does not forget. Men make treaties only to break them. God says, “I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken” (v. 15). In His matchless grace God re lieved Jacob’s fear by assuring him of His protection; his loneliness by His divine presence; and his uncer tainty regarding the future by the promise of blessing.- Jacob’s heart waa deeply moved by his dream, and as he awoke to full consciousness, he came to n . A Realization of God’s Great ness (w . 16-19). Full of holy fear and awe, Jacob realized the presence of the infinite God. It is a proper and wholesome reaction when aman, realizing him self to be in God’s presence, is over come by the awe-inspiring experi ence. Theologians, preachers and teach ers have dared to speak swelling words of disrespect concerning His miraculous power, have denied the deity of His Son, and have ques tioned the authority of His Word. Having sown the wind of unbelief, they have reaped from the people the whirlwind of irreverence, a be littling of God, and a rejection of His authority (Hos. 8:7). Jacob was reminded of God’s im mediate presence, “the Lord is in this place.” The place of his vision of heavenly things had special meaning to Jacob. The thing that Jacob “found out that night was not that God visits man, but that God is with man wherever he is. We expect to meet Him in the sanctuary, but He is near us in the market place. Not alone in the sanctuary, but where the mul titude gathers in defiance of His law, He is there” (G. Campbell Morgan). This rich experience led Jacob to In. A Recognition of God’s Goodness (w . 20-22). The God who would supply his every need, who would watch over him and keep him, was recognized by Jacob as being worthy of his devotion, and he made a vow that He should be his God (v. 21). - .. The grace and goodness of God are intended to bring men to faith in Him and devotion to His service. Yet men can go on year after year, the beneficiaries of all His bounty, and never so much as say, “Thank you,” let alone recognize Him as Lord. Jacob made a very practical and workable decision to demonstrate the reality of his vow. He promised that one-tenth of all God gave him should be returned to Him. Many have followed his example and found blessing in giving a tithe for the Lord’s work. Some who count themselves far better than poor, weak and tricky Jacob have done far less to show their appreciation of God’s blessing. Note also that Jacob raised a stone of remembrance, and gave the place a name which forever after would recall not only to him, but to posterity, the wonderful blessing of that night. It is a great thing to keep fresh the memory of the occa sions when we have met God In spe cial blessing. Trickery and deception were changed to truthfulness and devotion when Jacob met God face to face. The same blessed transformation awaits those who meet our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in faith.

Major Ferebee Drops Bomb on Japan Evervbody in Davie county and throughout the country is proud of our own Major Thomas Feiebee, a Davie County farm boy, who drop, ped the first atomic bomb on Japan, killing around a hundred thousand laps at one time. Hur ry up Major and finish the job and come back to good old Davie Ev. erybody is waiting to give vou the glad hand. Tribute to Major Thomas Fe ebee DavisviHe, R. I., Aug. 8. Dear Mr. Frank:—I have been in the Bervice almost 3 years and during that time I have enjoyed the Davie Kecord. I have read with feeling and pride and some times sympathy every Jctter that you have printed from Dnvic CountyjS boys in the service. Now this is the first time that I have asked for just a little space in your paper, and I feel sure that I am asking for it on behalf of every man that Davie County has in the service. This morning as I read the Providence paper, I experienced a feeling that every man from Davie must have had a feeling of pride, etc. Ju9t the same feeling except in a much bigger way, that we used to have when our team beat Cooleemee in a game of baseball. We have all, for the past few days, been reading and hearing a lot about the Atomic Bomb that has been used against Japan, all of us fellows feel that perhaps it will be the cause of us getting home a little quicker, and Home, is no doubt the biggest word in our vocabulary. Of course we are all' very thankful and appreciative tjo- ward every one who had a part in the development and perfection of the Atomic Bomb, but you just can’t imagine our pride and our enthusiasam over the fact, that the man who re leased the first Atomic Bomb on Japan was one of us. Maj. Thomas W, Ferebee, we salute you Major with every bit of feeling that is in us. When we were children we were all inclined a little bit, to hero worship I guess, but us fellows in the service have certainly outgrown that feeling. To us there is no heroes. There is right guys and wrong guys, and the standards are pretty Tigid and pretty much the same whether it’s Buck private or General, Apprentice seaman or Ad' miral. We all know Tom Ferebee and hia mother and Mr. Flay.;We know that they aTe good people, tie salt of the earth. We all wanted a right guy for our hero and thank God we have him. There is no doubt in my mind but what every Son of Davie County has had a secret longing inside of him to see the name of Moeksville, N. C. and Davie County in the head lines, put there by one of us, to see some Davie boy’s name go down in our history books, so that we could say to our grand children, ftYes I knew him.” Well Tom you have done all this for us and boy, are we proud of you? I say boy be cause I remember you as a boy. This morning as I read the account of the Bombing in the Providence Journal. I remembered very plainly the night I had you boys wrestling at Mr. Tom Koontz’s Tobacco barn, how interested you were in the new holds I was show ing you, and I remember too whose watcr-mellon patch you went to when the wrestling was over. Those were the days. So Tom you just lay a few more of those eggs over there and we will all get back to good old Davie and have the biggest chicken stew you ever heard of. Hats off mates, to a right guy. J. C. Jones C. E. M.—U.S.N.B. Honorable Discharge Robert R. Foster received an honorable discharge from the U. S Army on Aug 4, through the Kennedy General Hospital.

I have often thought that most of Us would be better cooks if we learned to make a few dishes well instead of gathering hundreds of recipes without ever learning how to do any one of them well enough to set in front of company. Then, if these few dishes get monotonous, there are always good variations to use to make them seem entirely dif ferent than the basic recipe. One woman whom I know frankly admits that the only dessert which she can be certain of turning out “right and proper" is a bavarian cream.' But is it monotonous to have bavarian cream whenever we go to have dinner with her? No, indeed. Some times it turns out to be maple flavored, garnished with pecan nutmeats. Another time.she will .cleverly flavor it with choco late and coffee, a most intriguing combination. Then during the fruit season, she has a spree by adding delicious . combinations like pine- applehnd apricots. Basic Bavarian Cream. (Serves 6) 1 envelope plain, unflavored gelatin U cup cold water 2 egg yolks Vi cup sugar Yi teaspoon salt I teaspoon vanilla 1 cup thin cream 2 egg whites Soften gelatin in cold water. Scald milk in top part of double boiler, then gradually add the combined egg yolks, sugar and salt. Return to the double boiler and cook until custard-like in consistence*. Remove from heat, add gelatin 'and stir until dissolved. Add vanilla and cream. Chill, and when mixture be gins to thicken, beat until fluffy with rotary egg beater. Fold in stiffly beaten whites. Pour into mold or molds that have been rinsed in cold water.' Chill until firm. When ready to serve, unmold and garnish as desired. . Bavarian Cream Variations. Maple Bavarian: Make above recipe Using shaved maple sugar in place of white sugar. One dozen cut marshmallows may be added or Vi cup chopped pecans or walnuts. Butterscotch: Omit white sugar. Cook % cup brown sugar with 2 tablespoons butter and add this to hot custard. Chocolate Rice: Beat 3 table spoons cocoa into I cup cooked rice and fold into bavarian mixture. Fruit Bavarian: Fold I cup diced fniit into bavarian cream after it starts to thicken. Chocofate Bavarian: Add 2 squares melted, unsweetened choco late or 6 tablespoons cocoa to scald ed milk. Continue as directed. If a slight flavor of coffee is desired with the chocolate, substitute I ta blespoon cold, Miled coffee for I ta blespoon of the milk. Coffee Bavarian: Substitute Vi cup cold, boiled coffee for Vi cup milk and add I tablespoon lgmon juice. Ice cream corned in for many Lynn Says How to make good pastry: The proper - proportion- for pastry is I cup flour, sglt ,to taste and % cup shortening or substitute. The'important points are: have ingredients as cold as possible; never over-mix shortening and flour. The mixture shohld be “lumpy,” about the' size of giant peas. Whoi the . shortening is not thoroughly .mixed with th'e flour, it “streaks” and makes for flak ier crusts Too much water makes the pastry a “toughie.” Use just enough to make the dough stick together. On damp days, less water is required, 6n sunny days, Lynn Chambers’ Point-Easy Menus Lima Beans with Ham Chunks Seven-Minute Cabbage Fried Tomatoes Jellied Fear Iialad Bran Mufiins Jelly Orange Chiffon Fie Beverage delicious variations, too, if you have a good basic recipe: Custard Base Ice Cream. 2 cups milk % cup sugar 2 tablespoons cornstarch 3 eggs I cup heavy cream I teaspoon vanilla Scald' 1% cups milk and add all but 2 tablespoons of the sugar to it. Add cornstarch and salt to remain ing Vi cup milk. Add to milk which has been heated in top part of double boiler, stirring occasionally. Beat 3 egg yolks and I white, add the hot custard and return to double boiler to cook for 5 minutes. Chill. Beat 2 egg whites with the remain ing sugar - until stiff and add to chilled custard with vanilla. Final ly add cream which has been beat en until.thick but not stiff. Freeze without stirring. Ice Cream Variations. Banana: Crush three bananas through potato ricer, adding 2 ta blespoons lemon juice. Add to cus tard before adding egg white. Caramel: Heat the sugar of the ' above recipe in heavy skillet stir ring until melted and light brown in color. Add. Vi cup water and stir until smooth. Cook the corn starch with the milk and salt and add the caramel plus I tablespoon of sugar. Proceed as directed above. Chocolate: Melt I Vi to 2 table spoons of chocolate over hot water adding to custard'while hot. Coffee: Scald Vi cup finely ground coffee in the milk, then strain through three thicknesses of cheese cloth. Proceed as above, adding Vi teaspoon almond flavoring.

Beleased by Wesiesn Newspaper Union. or CfiAimAND fi/C E TrantIandRlce A L WESSON’S story on “Charley Paddock, the,Fastest Human,” in the “Best Sports Stories of 1944,” recalls a Paddock yarn I have nev er seen in print. The marine captain, killed in a plane crash while on war duty, told me some years ago about the most interesting split - second of his long career as a sprinter. You may recall that Paddock oh sev eral occasions had run the hundred in 9% esconds. Also that he was .the first of the ex tended flock to cov er this same dis tance in 9.5. I asked him one day why it was that being able to tie the record time and again, he had been unable at some high peak spot to beat it. So Charley told his story, which makes one wonder whether or not nature hasn’t set a certain limit on what the human frame can stand. “I was running that afternoon,” he said, “against a strong field and I know I was never in better condi tion. I had the feeling before the race that this was to be my big day—the day where I would set a new world mark, possibly around 9% seconds, or even a shade foster. I had that record mark in my mind before the race was run. I was thinking of it while waiting for the starter’s pistol. . “At the bark of the gun ■ I was away faster than usual. At the 59 yard mark-1 knew. I had made the fastest time of my career for that distance. I increased my speed on the.way home and at the.75 or 80 yard mark I could see that 9% or perhaps 9VS all ready for track his tory. Then a queer thing happened, at this point I suddenly- felt my leg ligaments and leg muscles begin to quiver; as if they were being torn loose from the bone.’ In that split second I canght the flash that U I continued this same pace I would probably finish as a cripple. “So I called off any continuance of full pressure and eased down. Even then I again ran the distance in 9%, where I threw away two-fifths of a second in those last 20 or 25 yards. I found later, however, that my judgment had been correct, for I was sore and lame in the calves of both legs for a week. The speed and the stamina were there, but the physical structure wasn’t for that pace.” Gehrigs Hard Luck Much along the same line, which proves again how difficult it is to crack certain marks, is Lou Gehrig’s case. Here was another star who came within a half turn of setting one of the greatest records ever written by the ash. Up to June 3, 1932, only two men in baseball history had ever hit four home runs in one game. The first quadruple blast came from the bat of Bobby Lowe of Boston in May, 1894. Two years later big Ed Delehanty of Philadelphia, one of the great hitters of all time, plas tered four out of the park to tie Lowe’s record. ' ••• Sixteen years later Io u Gehrig had his big chance. Facing the strong Athletic team of that season, Gehrig hit a home run his first four times at bat. He was now on even terms with Lowe and Delehanty, with another chance left. On his final appearance Lou caught one solidly and squarely on the snout. It was the longest of his five hard smashes, but In place :of traveling slightly to left or right, the big blow was caught In deep center, against the fence. It was a matter of raw luck that kept Luis Angel Firpo, the Wild Bull of the Pampas, from putting across the greatest ring sensation of all time. Few recall that the ring had been lifted that night at least 2 feet above normal. This move had been made to give the big crowd a bet ter chance to see the fight. The drop from the ring to the press seats was a deep one. I recall saying that I’d hate to have 220-pound Firpo fall across my neck from the lifted plateau. It so happened that when Dempsey came through the ropes his body fell directly at Jack Lawrence, who in stinctively put up both hands to pro tect himself. If Dempsey had top pled a foot to the right or a foot to the left the champion would almost certainly have gone all the way down to the press rail — or at least so far down that he would never have had the slightest chance to get back through the ropes in time. It is by such narrow margins that sport history is often written. College vs. Pro Football - Greasy Neale, coach of the Phila delphia Eagles, a team that lost only one game last fall,-insists that his high-flying Eagles would have beat en either Army or Navy litst fall. Goach Steve Owen of. the Giants doesn’t agree. “Army had too much youth and speed, plus a lot of power,” Steve said. “We have too much experience —just as much speed and just as much power,” Neaie counters.

The war which Adolph Hitter thrust upon the world, cost the world more misery and natural wealth than most cf history’s pre vious wars combined. The score sheet alone is sufficient reminder of our daily peril, when we permit aggressors to marci. The cost in dollars—$740,000 ,- 000 .000 . The Axis—$3 0 0 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 ,- 000 . United States—$240,000 ,000 ,- 000 Russia.—$100,000 ,0 0 0 ,000 . England—$100,000 ,000 ,000 . The cost in lives—15,635,000 . The Ax is, 8,910 .000 , (8,500,000 of them Germans). The Allies. 6,725,000 , (5.5oo,oooof them Russians), In addition there are somewhat less reliable figures for the wound, ed, over 6,000,000 In Germany a Iona. America's total casaulties hang around the million mark. In the British Empire 202,000 homes were destroyed. There is scarcely a large city standing In all Ger- many England lost 3,482 ships. Every fifty days of the war has cast America as much as the whole of the Civil War, and whereas the last war cost the world 165 billions this one has cost more than five times as mncb, and is not yet done. The above figures are indeed staggering. This surely is enough to convince any sane person that sin and wickedness is very, very costly; for sin alone is to blame. When individuals and nations give themselves over to the devil, and turn away from God and the Bible, then we may realize that an awful cost is attached to it all. Think of one war costing seven hundred and forty billions of dollars. Then think again that it is still raging, but not on so large a scale. I doubt ser louelyif the whole cost in dollars and cents of Christianity has cost the world seven and forty billions of dollars since Christ was on the earth, which will soon be two thou sand years. Yet a war that has been going on around six years has cost more than Christianity has cost in nearly two thousand years, in my opinion, I have no figures on this, but I’m expressing m> opinion Suppose onr nation, fo* instance, has started out to raise two hund- red and forty fltllions of dollars to help spread the Gospel to all na tions and Christianize the world, we would, ar a nation, said it was impossible. Yet it is possible to raise it to fight, slav, kill and curse mankind. It would have been ten thousand times better to raise this amount to Christianize mankind than wound, slay, kill, curse and dam mankind; for naturally the vast multitude killed in war are unprepared to meet God. They lose their lives and lose their souls in a deyil’s hell. People talk about it costing too much to build churches, parson- ages, good schools and colleges, and'that it costs too much to sup. port ministers of the Gospel, inis sionaries and Christian teachers; that it costf too much to send the Gospel to lands afar that are with out the Bible and the Christian re ligion, and that it costs too much to feed and clothe the poor heath en and bring them to Christ; yet this is only a fraction compared to the awful cost of sin, which results in horrible, damnable, cursed war, crime, bloodshed, heartache, death and damnation. Wby can’t men and natious see this? Why can’t we be reasonable and acknowledge the troth? No doubt multitudes of people who have put vast sums in to this awful, damnable war. >aod have done it willingly and without complaint, which -has been the means of millions of lives lost and souls damned forever, wouldn’t have given anything toward Chris- tianizing mankind and saving their In the bill now before Congress to broaden the social security act to give everyone protection against “the slings and arrows of outra geous fortune” from childbirth to the grave, the word “compulsory” is shunned like the odiferous aro. ma of the lowly skunk Nowhere is that word used in any discus sions by the promoters of the bill. The public is actually made to be lieve that everyone will have com plete freedom in choice of a doctor, and that doctor will have complete freedom in choice of patients. It is claimed that state medicine is not socialized medicine. This is about as logical as to say the bill is not cpmpulsorv, when the wording of the bill forces all employes drawing up to $3,600 a year to pay four per cent of their earnings into the social security fund, and all em ployers to pay a like amount. When government goes into busi ness that is socialism, so when the Federal government establishes a system of insurance to which every one must contribute, when it regu lates the provisions of medical serv. ice through Washington head quarters, when it regulates fees that doctors are to receive when they participate in the system, when it regulates those who are to be consulted, that is definitely so cialized medicine. The doctors who are dissatisfied with the sys tem can quit and turn theit abili ties to some other channel, but the people, once they are saddled with compulsory medical practices, are the losers, and they will definitely have to pay ior socialized medicine even though they prefer a private doctor.—Wilkes Journal.

Many would have given some, but not in comparison to what they gave to the war fund. Multitudes would have complained, murmured, fretted, worried, cursed ana swore that it was absolutely unreasonable and extravagant if we bad asked one tenth the amount to spread the Gospel over the nations of the earth in order to save mankind, that it has cost to murder mankind and destroy their homes and property. How inconsistent men are. How unreasonable. How they talk bit terly against supporting the cause of God on earth in order to save the lives and souls cf men, but bow willingly they seem to contribute to the utmost of their ability to fight men and nations throughout the earth! They claim this is done for their rights, privileges, freedom and for the sake of democracy, yet loosing these blessings because God is rejected.

Thumbing A Ride On Tobacco Road During the twelve months end ing June 30 th the Federal,Govern ment collected almost a billion dol lars in taxes on tobacco, and over the years it has rested heavily on the tobacco farmer and he will feel its weight again although for the moment he is unusually prosperous due to war conditions. If tobacoo had been grown mostly North of the Mason and Dixon line it would never have b e e n tax ed as it is today. This tax is bas ed on a fiction and was part and parcel of a mnch larger scheme to exploit the southern states—very much as some of the European countries exploited their colonies— by shifting to southern sboulders the expense of supporting the Gov ernment. These northern publishers who got out of their way to malign the South and their hired men like Davenport and Embree pretend to be thumbing their noses at tobacco road when all the while they are in truth thumbing a free ride for themselves. The half has not been told and will not be told if you wait for them to tell the story. The wealth of the southern states today is greater than the wealth of the entire United States In i860. Progress in the South has been placed in its way. JOHN W. CLARK. Awarded Oak Leaf Cluster Air transport Command Base, India— 2nd Lt 1 Chester A. Huthes pilot, of Mocks ville.

But last week there came the qualifying a- mendment that they are expected to travel at their own expense un less the trips are expressly author- by Congress. Such authorizations come under the head of official business and are legitimate. But to dig into the public till to provide Congressmen with tree vacation trips would be carrying public generosity a bit to far; and tbe hundred or so Con gressmen who arranged such tour are now at Liberty to do so, by dig ging into the “expense account” they voted themselves a short time ago.—Statesville Daily.

Gl MiXW BRITISH LABOR PERSONALITIES Britain’s Labor party which swept Churchill out of office is a strange mixture, resembles the liberal branch of the Democratic party more than any Socialist movement. It has its liberal and its conserva tive wings, has had no labor troubles similar to ours during the past decade. Clement Attlee, Britain’s new prime minister, is a poor man. . . . He was little known among the fash ionable people of England until 1935 when his salary was raised to 2,000 pounds a year. . . . After getting this pay boost, Mrs. Attlee was able to venture into society for the first time, was able to start playing golf, hire enough help to keep her home going. . . . Attlee likes to putter in his garden, do odd jobs around the house, constantly puffs a pipe, is a sharp contrast to fiery, charming Ramsey MacDonald, England’s last Labor prime minister. . . . Att lee is no forthright leader, is considered more of an impartial middle man, will have all he can do to keep peace within his own widely split party. Attlee’s greatest rivals for power inside the party are paunchy, jovial Herbert Morrison and hard-headed, deep-voiced, testy Ernest Bevin. . . . Morrison lost his right eye when he was three days old, has had a “leftish” outlook ever since. . . . Morrison has played runner-up to Attlee in many elections, carries oft constant behind-the-scenes warfare with Bevin. . . . Bevin had the same war job which Sidney BQllman took over in the OPM after Pearl Har bor-handling labor relations. However, Bevin made a better go of it, fought grimly and successfully for better rations for workers. . . . Mor rison is a cockney, has a spry sense of humor, likes to dance, is head of the Labor party in politically potent London. He is also a man of daring, had the ancient tradition-encrusted Waterloo bridge torn down because he found it unserviceable, afterward had traffic rolling more smoothly through the center of London. . . . Morrison is a hard ruler. Bevin—Union Boss. Ernie Bevin is a hard-headed union boss. . . . He hates dictator ships but is a dictator in his own union, the giant transport workers., . . Bevin runs his own union like John L. Lewis runs the mine workers. . . . Outside _}iis union, however, Bevin’s labor practices are more like those of Sidney Hillman and Phillip Murray. . . . He believes in negotiation rather than strikes. Bevin took a bad trouncing from Winston Churchill in 1926, has never forgiven the ex-prime minister. It was Bevin who called the 1926 gen eral strike in England, a strike which Churchill dealt a shattering blow. . . . Bevin is a forthright anti- Fascist, was against Hitler, Musso lini and the Cliveden set from their inception, was responsible for the tough - minded position his party took internationally from 1933 to the outbreak of war. . . . As leader of the transport workers, Bevin con trols considerable of the Labor party, is rough on his enemies, gruff with his friends, losses his patience frequently. To get feminine support, the new labor government will lean heavily on a red-headed fiery labor M.P., El len Wilkinson. . . . Miss Wilkinson is at home in a fight, knows the world, has contempt for Britain’s colonial policies, is a scrapper from the word go. . . . She knows about riots and bloodshed first hand, was in the thick of the black and tan trouble in Ireland, even led hunger marchers on London during the de pression. . . . Miss Wilkinson lives in the Bohemian Bloomsbury sec tion of London surrounded by poets, painters, actors and, writers; has persuaded many of them to pitch into labor’s fight. . . . Blunt and forthright, Miss Wilkinson was the first member of parliament to de fend King Edward’s marrying Amer ican-born Wallis Simpson. . . . In one speech she said, “We say that if a woman is good enough to be a man’s wife, she is good enough to take her side by him as his equal in whatever rank of life intended.” Another powerful figure in the new AtUee government will lie tall, sparse hard-headed Arthur Greenwood, recently minister of postwar reconstruction. . . . Greenwood was responsible for what little slum clearance the MacDonald government under took. . . . A member of Church ill’s cabinet, Greenwood never was known as a radical or a great liberal, is a seasoned bu reaucrat, knows his way around government, is an able talker.

Not only is government alarmed over these soaring values, but pri vate industry is equally concerned to such an extent that the American Bankers association is urging its country bank members to follow conservative lending policies and to beware of speculators who would boost prices “beyond what bona fide farmers can pay.” As of July I, the level of farm real estate values had risen to an in dex of 130, or a rise of S3 per cent since March, 1941, as compared to an index of 170 in 1920 or a rise of 65 per cent from 1915 to 1920. But 1 the end of this increase is not yet in sight and, with guaranteed farm prices, return of thousands of vet erans who want farms, and relaxa-- tion of rationing on farm machinery, these farm values may equal or even exceed the.. “boom” values which crashed with such devastat ing effect in 1922 and later. Farmers Remember Crash Many thousands of American farmers well remember that crash,; when some 450,000 farms, over-; capitalized at high per acre prices, went the foreclosure and forced sale route. Then from 1926 when farm values started to come back until the crash year of 1929 when values again hit the toboggan, more than 800,000 farms were sold under the hammer of the foreclosure auction eer and went into the portfolios of banks and insurance companies. Will American farmers forget the lesson learned during those years and now, with pockets bulging with money, bid up the prices of farm land to another crash year? There are some contrasts or saving- factors now, which were not present in the last war: (I) in most areas the level of values started from a point about 15 per cent below the base of World War I; (2) there are more sales for cash now, about 55 per cent as compared to less than 50 per cent in World War I; (3) farm real estate debt con tinues to decline in spite of soaring values, whereas during and after World War I, mortgage debt continued to increase. In four years farmers have paid off $1,316,000,000 in farm mortgage debt and the total debt today on farm real estate is $5,271,000,000, or less than half of the all-time peak of 1923 when the debt reached $10,786,000,- 000 . Parity Guarantee Factor Another favorable factor today is the fact that farm prices are guar anteed by the government at 90 per cent of parity for at lease two years following end of the war, a factor not present after World War I. But in spite of these favor able circumstances, it is pointed out that the large number of re sales (one-eighth of all sales) indicates speculation is influenc ing the farm market . . . that two-fifths of sales during 1944 carried a debt of 75 per cent or more of the purchase price and that in many of these sales involving credit, the farm buy ers have assumed a debt greater than the full market value of the land four years ago . .. that in many cases current sales prices are higher than can be justified on the basis of long time earning capacity. In South Carolina and Kentucky values are up more than double their 1935 to 1939 average, largely because of tobacco prices. Values are up more than 90 per cent in Colorado, 81 per cent in Indiana, Arkansas and Wyoming, 70 per ceot in nine other states. Averages are above 1920 levels in one-sixth of the states and equal or above 1919 levels in one-half of the states. To combat these soaring increases the TJSDA has named a National Agricultural Credit committee of governmental leaders and representatives of major lenders in the farm mortgage credit field to meet in Chicago periodically to plan curbs on the inflationary rise in farm values. But the question still re mains up to the individual farmer: Agriculture, as measured by the true dollar volume of its physical goods has increased from a $49,000,- 000,000 industry to a $74,000,000,000 industry during the five-year period ended January 1, 1945. Financial assets such as cur rency, deposits and war bonds increased from an estimated $5,000,- 000,000 on January I, 1940, to $13,- 000,000,000 January I, 1944, and to nearly $17,000,000,000 on January I, 1945. Of this $74,000,000,000 indus try, real estate is the farmers’ largest single asset, now valued at more than $50,000,000,000. CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT PERSONAL EARN BIG MONEY!

Melody was mistaken for the outlaw, Monte Jarrad. MontetS girl, Cherry, In trying to save Monte and later Melody, got them involved In the murder of Luke Packer, the Insurance cop. Mel ody found Monte at the farm, where Cherry soon returned with the wounded Fury. MontetS men rode up, hard pressed hy the posse, and ran into the house, while Melody, Cheny and Fury were In the barn when the battle started. Melody walked out of the barn, called Monte and ^tarted to shoot it out with him. Monte fell dead. The battle was over and Melo dy was taken Into town but soon re> leased. He returned to Fury and Cherry. CHAPTER XIX “I had hopes for you, for a while,” George said. “You looked pretty good around here, once, for a couple of minutes. When first you let your self get sucked in here, on the theory you could collect the reward— git holt of the toughest killer since Billy the Kid—whup his whole gang, proS’ly — take him single-handed, seemingly—I knowed you was crazy. But I admit there was a minute here when you near had me fooled. I come mighty near thinkin’ you knowed what you was up to, there, once. . . .” Melody was interested. "When was this?” “When you walked out and fit it out with him—and shot him down!” “Who? Me?” “How you ever done it—that part they’s no answer to,” George said. “It’ll mystify me in my grave.” “Only I never,” Melody said somberly: “Never what?” “I never shot him, George.” “I see,” George said, with bitter irony. “You never killed him. He fainted, and struck his head. The bullet you put through him never had nothing'to do with it!”Melody looked at George very queerly. “I kind of thought to ask you a question, George. But this answers it, I guess. Maybe I al ready knew the answer. Ctaly, I did kind of hope— You sure you didn’t shoot him, George? Because you crawled to the door, you know. You crawled to the door, and you—” “Crawled to the door,” George mimicked him angrily. “I don’t crawl for nobody, you hear? I stood up and walked like a human bean! Only I tripped. It knocked the wind out of me, or somethin’, and I dropped her. Don’t you even know when you shoot a feller?” “I—I don’t feel good ” Melody said. “Of course, I really knowed; but—I guess I still kind, of hoped—” “What the hell’s the matter with yew?” Melody looked at Uini with pity. “The Shot come from behind me. I even heard the lead. I reckon the next silliness,- I’m supposed-to think she went off when you dropped her, and hit dead center by. accident. Fine carbine you had, with its own eyes and everything. I never hear sech—" He stopped. “Now whut’s the matter?” - A new queer light had come into George’s face. “Avery!” he said. “Whut?” * “It comes hack to me now- As I fell down, somebody taken and grabbed the'cggbine up. Avery must of—” He-Jnhecked abruptly, and looked even stranger. "Avery was knocked out,” he said weakly, watching Melody. ; They looked at,each other quite a While. Melody’s face had reached t low of depression such as George h£d never seen in it before. It made him look older; almost, George thought, as if he had sense. *|Don’t look like that,” George said at last. “You otter be glad. YoU otter be proud of her. If it was ipe,jf’d take it for the best good new$ I ever see come to you yet. The Jpnly good news,” he corrected. “I throw in,” Melody said."What?” , "Ycii cain’t blame her. She knowed him long before she ever knowed me.”It tobk a long time for that' to soak • i% upon George, so that he realized what Melody meant. Even after all>his long miles with Melody, he foundfit hard to believe this final thing. I “I otter git up and whup yew.” George’s voice was low, but it shook. “I give yfvr up. Git out of my sight! I dpn't want to ever see yew no more. 'Melody, I mean it.” “All right, George.” Melody got together such of his few things ..as were still rattling around the ranch house. He could not find at all.some of the things he thought he remembered having had, !,such as one-half pair of spurs, and his horsehair tie rope. He finally found his other saddle blanket, though, rolled up under George Fury’s head. “Please, George, kin I have that? ” Wien Gkirge smoked and ignored him he lifted George’s head by the hair, Rnd took the blan ket anyway, while- George refused to notice. Cherry was brushing her hair, just as he Jiad seen her do the night she had found him asleeprin her bed. She glanced over her. shoulder at him, and said, "Hi.'-’ - And there.was. a considerable silence, while Melody stood awkwardly in the door and nothing happened. ' ; . ' “!'don’t see why you need him, rightj. away,” she said at last. -“I got to get a job. Most likely I got So travel some to .get it—don’t xeem like I’m nonular around here no more. But I got to get some money to send back to George. He’ll need it, until he can work.” “He might never, you know.” “Well, then, he’ll need the money all the worse.” “You know,” Cherry said, not looking at him, "the country around here would be a wonderful'place to start a little cattle stand. It’s thin, but there’s plenty of it. The Cottons only want the valley bottom. And it isn’t the country’s fault that Fever Crick wastes all his time running wild horses.” “I—I often thought of that.” “In a few years,” Cherry said gravely, “a couple of people could have about anything, if they weren’t afraid of work.” “Sure.” She was silent, and waited for what he would say.From the lean-to at the other side of the house came George Fury’s faint yell: "Cherry, if yew missed him with ut, hit him agin!” “Heck,” Melody said. He sat look ing at the broken lamp, and the ribbon in his hand, and turning turkey red. Cherry seemed to notice the rib bon more than the lamp. “You can have that, if you want it,” she said. “You don’t need to steal things from me. Couldn't you ask?” Wordless, Melody wadded up the ribbon and crammed it into his pocket. Then, becoming aware of what he was doing, he hastily pulled it out again, snapped it straight, and dropped it on the bed. “I swear,” he said honestly, “I don’t know how come I done that.” He stood up. “I’ll send you another lamp,” he said, “out of my first pay.”“You’re really on your way,” she said, as if she didn’t believe it. “Whut?” She subsided, looking more discouraged than he had ever seen her. “Let it go . . . I suppose you’ll let George know where he can find you?” “We ain’t speakin’.”“But you said—” “I’ll support him while he needs it. I’ll do jest that one thing more. But beyond that we’re done. George wants it that way, Cherry. I reckon so do I.” She looked at him a long time then, disconcertingly, while he stood turning his hat round and round in his hands. He didn’t know exactly how to get out of there, now that He had no more to say.“I think,” Cherry said surprising ly, “you’re the hardest man I’ve ever known.” .“Who? Me?” “You’re hard like a rock drill, or a bronc. You’re so hard you don’t even know you’re hard.” “Oh, well, shucks, now—” “How on earth did you manage to break with George?” Melody shifted uncomfortably, deeply embarrassed. He would have said he. didn’t know, except that George would be staying on there. ; “WeU,” Melody said, “he—he—I guess I got to teU you something, Cherry . . . George remembers, now. He remembers who — who picked that carbine up, and shot it, when—when I was fighting Monte.” Cherry winced as if a quirt ha'd sung in her face, but steadied id- stantly. , She considered for a long moment, with her eyes averted. “I did,” she said at last.“Yup, sure,” Melody said. “We know that, now.” Chefry talked swiftly, in a panic. Can’t he see—can’t anybody see—I had to try to—I couldn’t help—” “Cherry,” he. said slowly, “you ain’t got any better ..friend than George.”“But you just said you quarreled because—” He met her almost franticaUy glassy stare with steady eyes. “George is a\sentimental old guy. He don’t see things very clear, any more.” . Every trace of expression in Cher-, ry’s face was crossed off. j “It’s—it’s you who hates me for that?” “Nobody hates you, Cherry.” She dropped her chin, and turned her face away from him. “I want you to know something,” Melody said. “If a feller gets a bullet pasted at-him, it’s liable to be his own damn fault. Even if it comes from the last .place he would rightfully expect it to come from.” She only looked at him. “Don’t feel like that,” Melody said. “It ain’t fair or right for a man to expect too much of people. If a feller gets to thinking there’s some one person he can trust, that’s a chance he’s taking. And if later she feels called on to take a shot at him, he cain’t blame nobody but his- self if he’s surprised.”This was so far from anything Cherry had looked forward to, or planned, that at first she could not speak. Her eyelids winked fast as she stared hard at the hairbrush. He turned away; and she didn’t stop him as he wandered to the door. But he hesitated, feeling unhappy, and incomplete. “George is funny,” he said. “Facts hurt George. He cain’t bring hisself to stand for ’em. There ain’t a man in the werld wouldn’t give the last drop of his blood for a gal that done for him whut you tried to do for Monte. But maybe you’d better let George think whut he wants. He’s daid set that you was shootin’ at Monte.” He paused. Then, as she stared at him, he said, diffidently. “Some way it makes him mad to have me realize that you was only trying to kill me.”Cherry dropped the hairbrush, but it landed on its bristles, without sound; and Melody did not see it, because he was getting out of there now, at his own slow pace. “Someday,” he said to himself, “you’ll be an old man, past use for nothin’-.- And suppose then word comes in, some way, so’s we know then that George was right. Sup pose we'find out, some way, she real ly shot’at Monte. Then you’ll set there plucking cactus spines. You’ll set there a long time . . .” He stood halfway up, hitching his chap belt, but sat down again. “She woidd of give me some sign,” he suggested to himself, uncertainly. “She would of said something. She' would of told me.” He reached down for his soogans. But he never picked them up. He stopped in his tracks, shocked out of motion by the impression that Harry Henshaw, ignorer of. whistles, had turned and whistled at him. Then, as he stared at the dozing pony, Cherry spoke behind him.“No wonder he doesn’t come,” she said.He jumped, and spun around. “Whut? Oh. It’s you.” “Yes,” Cherry said. “That whis tle can’t be any good. You don’t even answer to it yourself.” “Who? Me?” Melody was utter ly befuddled, now. “Cherry,! swear, it seems like he otter come. I thunk a fur piece, figuring up that whistle. That there is the most come-hither whistle a man can think up, I do believe.” “Is it?” Cherry looked him square in the eye, and whistled at him. The doggonedest thing of all hap pened then. Harry Henshaw came up and stood nearby, looldng self- conscious:[THE END] „ I'6. B O SELECTED FICTION BY GIFTED AUTHORS IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY! C H O O LLesson _ By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D.Dl The Moody Bible tastittrte of Chicago. Released by ’Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 26 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by- Internationa] Council of Religious Education; used b) permission. JACOB ADJVSTS PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS LESSON TEXT-Genesis 33:1-11, IT-RL GOLDEN TEXT—Let us therefore’ follow after the things which make for peace. —Romans 14:1s. Eventually a man's past catches bp with him and he must face his own record. The Bible says, “Be sure your sm will find you out” (Num. 32:23), and it always does. Jacob, who had tricked and de ceived his brother and had fled into a far country, ultimately had to return to his homeland and face Esau. The story of what happened .makes up our dramatic and instructive lesson. Before Jacob could be permitted to enter the Promised Land of his father, he had to meet God. He needed a thoroughgoing transformation of life and attitude, and he re ceived it as he wrestled with God at Peniel (Gen. 32). Ultimately the stubborn man had to yield, and then he found that it was God who had come to give him a great blessing. How often do we fight against the goodness and mercy of God. Yielding brings bless ing; Jacob “the supplanter” became Israel “prince with God.” He was now ready for I. Reconciliation (w. 1-7). After living for 20 years in horror of meeting Esau, Jacob now learned that his brother was coming against him with an army. He resorted to clever strategy, but this time it was done not in sly crookedness, but in an open friendly effort to win hia brother’s good will. There is nothing wrong about the use of a tactful approach, and it really worked for Jacob. His cour tesy was shown by his seven bows. His bravery appeared in going out first. His conciliatory attitude showed in bis rich gift to his brother. Then came a surprise. Esau proved to be a loving brother rather than a hated enemy. Blood does count, and men do well to respond to the promptings of their hearts to be affectionate toward their breth ren. Note Jacob’s pride in presenting his family. God had blessed him and he rejoiced in his fine children. The scene is typically Oriental, but it shows an attitude toward one’s family which we could well emulate.Next, a very practical note en tered into the reconciliation of the brethren, namely: II. Restitution (w. 8-11).The gift which Jacob had prepared for Esau was in the Oriental tradition, and yet it bore also the na ture of a restoration of something of that which Jacob had taken from Esau in defrauding him of his birthright. There is a place for proper resti tution in- every case where we have wronged another by taking his pos sessions or destroying his opportu-' nities to prosper. Becoming a Christian is a forgetting of those things which are behind (Phil. 3:13) in a spiritual sense, but not in the ig noring of our obligations to others. What we can make right we must make right if we want God’s blessing. Esau was generous and did not want the gift, but since it would have been an affront to his brother to refuse, he accepted it. There are proprieties in life and little courte sies to be observed. Failure at this point has created much friction even between believers. Being a Christian should make one gentlemanly and ladylike. Let’s remember that! Then, too, Jacob was wise in putting Esau under the friendly obliga tion which is inherent in the accept ance of a gift. Those who are stingy and close-fisted about giving to oth ers often find that their lack of gen erosity has reflected in their lac* of friends. The time has come for the brothers to part, and we find Jacob fall ing into his old trickery as he pre pares to In. Return (w. 17-20). The portion between verses 11 and 17 indicate that instead of going on in straightforward dealings . : with Esau, Jacob resorts to evasion in order to be free to go where he would in his return to his fatherland.Instead of going back to Bethel the place of blessing (Gen. 28), to which Jacob had been called (Gen. 31:11-13), he went to Succoth and ultimately to the outskirts of Shech- em where his family fell into great sin. Ultimately, God did get him back to Bethel (Gen. 35), but only after much sorrow and suffering. Jacob was called to live the life' of a shepherd out in the fields with God, and when he pitched his tent near Shebhem he compromised and lost oiit. The incident pictures the tragic re sult of such folly in our day. Those who will ,not moOe over into the worldly life' want to be close enough to it so that their Children may have the cultural and. ,educational advantages, and soon'they find that they have lost their children to the world and have lost the savor of their owa spiritual experience.

C. o r YCfiAlVTLAND fi/C E TffJAVE FERRISS, the Merlin of the mound, the ex-airman with the Boston Red Sox, is now after Iiig game, meaning the star pitch ing records -of the ■ last 40 years. ■When you are levelling with dead aim on such past stars as Lefty drove, Christy Mathewson, Carl Hubbell, Grover Alexander, Smoky Joe W ood, Ed Walsh, Spud Chand ler and a few oth ers, you have to adjust your sights to an unusual angle. For in these 40 years of big league baseball there have been others who have set up a num ber of incredible marks that the bril- Saue- Ferriss liant Ferriss must look at, face to SSce;, or figure to figure. Here are just a few among those- who have won more than 20 games in any given season: EbBert Moses Grove, Athletics, B31;: Won 31, lost 4, pet. .886. Sinoky Joe Wood, Bed Sox, 1912: Won 34, lost 5, pet. .872. Eefty Gomez, Yankees, 1935: WOw 26, lost 5, pet. .839. Waiter Johnson, Senators, 1913: Won 36, lost 7, pet. .837. SJmd Chandler, Yankees, 1943: Won- 26, lost 4, pet. .833. OSTl Hubbell, Giants, 1936: Won 26; lost 6, pet. .813. IBzzy Dean, Cardinals, 1935: Won WHlbst 7, pet. .811. Eddie Cicotte,. White Sox, 1919: Won 29, lost 7, pet. 806. Christy Mathewson, Giants, 1909: Won 25, lost 6, pet. .866. The above are the high-ranking percentage records since 1904. Ed Walkh won 40 and lost 15 in 1908 for .727. Alexander won 31 and lost 10 in 1915 for .756. Bob Feller’s best Sean was 1939 when he won 24 and Hse 9- for .727. Quite a Target It; in Lefty Grove’s record mark, set: iir 1931, that now becomes the main Ferriss target. Here’s quite a target, no matter how keen a sharpshooter you may happen to be— WGME 31, LOST 4 — PCT. .886. Gnljr1-Smoky Joe Wood of the Red Sbx-. in 1912 has even approached these: miracle figures and Joe was 14' points away at .872, which is no partt of a bust or a flop. Tbubeat Lefty Grove’s 1931 mark, Slerriss will have to win 31 games and;! drop only 3. This means that Miracle Dave will have to win 14 out? of his next 15 starts. You will have-to admit this is quite an order. TBfs reminds us that Lefty Grove, the? silent mountaineer, had the 6 greatest consecutive years any pitcher has ever known: .750 in 1928 —,769 in 1929—.848 in 1930—.886 in 1931—.714 in 1932 and .750 in 1933. BbPiO and 1931, Lefty won 59 games and! lost only 9. Try and match that oombination for something over .870 fOrttwo straight seasons. Here are those perennial pessi mists, who live in ancient history as they stroke their mossy beards, whb have this to say: “This is a soft year for pitchers. SSiey are only facing a bunch of minor leaguers, most of them class Biand class C. This is an off year. It;shouldn’t count.” BUt wait just a few seconds. Why aren/t the rest of the pitchers mop ping up as Ferriss is? Newhouser of<the Tigers is one of the best from many seasons, but though working for-mmuch better ball club he hasn’t -Been able to follow the Ferriss pace. NbiReal Support And looking back to Grove’s big ypar;. has Ferriss another Jimmy Eoxx- or another Al Simmons bat ting in runs for his side? Simmons Ifit .390 that season and Jimmy Eoxx hammered 30 home runs over the wall. And there were others. Connie Mack had a world se ries team that year, back in 1931. Donft forget that Grove drew far better defensive and offensive sup port than the 1945 Red Sox can offer^ Without Ferriss, the Bed Sox would be in seventh place, badly outclassed by every team in the American League except the Ath letics. Leave out the Ferriss record and the Bed Sox would have only 26 victories against the 42 they held alter Sunday’s list. Don’t forget again that Lefty Grove and Joe Wood were working ;with two pennant winning, two world >series teams, while Ferriss has been pitching for a team that without him would be next to last among a lot of bad ball clubs. His infield and outfield support has been noth ing to compare with the support Grove and Woods knew in other and Setter years. iRfaotball’s Coming Boom “Tins will be the greatest war sea- I son football has known,” remarked I Steve Owen, cqach of the New York (Giants. “I am not referring alone to !the pro game. I am also speaking 'ior the colleges. We have been get- Iting in a number of reports lately Ifrtnn our scouts. I’ve heard from I a number of college coaches and jtbey tell me their material will be ,nnRh better than it was a year ago. They won’t be beating Army or !■avy but they will still be good," 'ir\ , i r ' . i r '"<3*.'

Yes, that’s the $64 question and the answer’s right in the picture. Chicken is fine food and it wears its Sunday best when fried to succulent brownness. It’s light enough to make a summer meal well bal anced and good enough to be satis fying to all branches of the fam ily.There are many schools of thought on the question of how chicken should be fried. Some prefer it bat ter-fried, others like just the dusting of bread crumbs or flour on if. Take your choice from these tasty reci pes:Maryland Fried Chicken. (Serves 4) I 3-pound chicken. Vi cup flour Salt and pepper 1 beaten egg 2 tablespoons water I 1A cups fine, dry bread crumbs Vi cup drippingsClean chicken and cut into frying pieces. Roll in flour seasoned with salt and pepper.

Lynn Says Tricky Tips: When glassware has chipped slightly on file drink ing edge, smooth it out with an emery board or sandpaper to make it smooth. To make delicious flavored tea, add a little grated orange rind to it before serving. It imparts a delicate fragrance and saves sugar. Lemons which have been heated slightly will yield twice as much juice as chilled ones. Cover lemons with hot water for a few minutes before extracting juice. To flour chops or chicken pieces before frying, place, in a brown paper bag with bread crumbs or flour and shake. This will coat the meat evenly and not leave excess in pan after frying. If the family objects to biting into a bit of garlic in spaghetti or other sauce, spear the clove of garlic with a toothpick and remove it before serving. Add leftover sausage, bacon or meat balls to potatoes when fry ing for extra delicious flavor., Here are some suggestions for the.use q| leftovers: Broccoli may be made^ihtb' a delightful cream soup,'or if there iS too much for soup, arrange it on the bottom of a shallow casserole, cover with thin slices of leftover chicken or meat or flaked fish, top with cheese sauce and brown in the I oven.

C The Aviation Committee ; When it comes to consideration of the establishment of an airpark or other aviation landing facility; each community finds itself faced with its individual needs and problems. A landing facility for each of two com munities only a few miles apart may have to meet quite different require ments. Before construction can start, even before a bond issue can be listed, pertinent information should be tabulated and plans made ac cordingly. Such matters as location of ttie airpark, size, prospective use, cost, potential income, related busi ness enterprise and many other sub- had an intimate connection with any phase of aviation, such as having a part in the Civil Air Patrol program, or experience as commercial air op erators, they would by all means be urged to participate. In addition to representatives of the community’s officialdom, there should be a cross section of local business and social enterprise. The components of this will differ ac cording to the area, but generally speaking, may include merchants, professional men, labor leaders, farmers and school principals and teachers. This is recognized as a logical pro cedure since the airpark must be a community affair mid if it is to A LOOKING AHKAD GEORGE S. BENSON PrcsUeKl-MttiItMj CtUege Setreg. A rittsat Leaders in community affairs compose the board of directors and of ficers of the Webster City, Iowa (population 7,000) chapter of the National Aeronautic Association. Left to right: Willis Scott, airport manager and operator; Richard Hahne, Vice President, publisher; Robert McCar thy, President, implement dealer; Paul Swope, Director, dry cleaning; John Whaley, Director, chamber of commerce secretary; HaTland W. Mead, Secretary, high school principal. Jects must be studied, at least in a preliminary way, if the venture is to be a success.An airpark is usually considered a public utility, much the same as Streets, highways and parks. The chief difference is that an airpark may ultimately provide self-support ing revenue if correctly planned, whereas other community utilities generally do not.Based upon experience, aviation authorities advise that the first step taken by a community should be the organization of an air landing fa cility committee. AU members pref erably should be local people who know the community’s history, its relation to other communities and to the state, and its plans for the future.It is suggested that committee members might include representa tives of the city or town councU, chamber of commerce, civic dubs, and newspapers. If there are any persons in the community who have succeed must cater to all local in terests. It wUl probably surprise many people to discover how many varied activities in even a small community will be influenced in one way or another by the coming era of flight. The appointed committee, after obtaining and classifying the neces sary local data, will then be in a position to take up its preliminary plans with aviation authorities and profit by their experienced advice and criticism. Forty-four states now have aviation boards or commissions ready to help and Washington au thorities such as the Cflvil Aeronautics Administration of the Depart- 1 ment of Commerce, the Personal Aircraft Council of the Aircraft In- | dustries Association of America and ' the National Aeronautic Association, * wiU also aid the localplanning group. This Is the fourth of a series of articles I on post-war flying and its offset on eom- | munity life* The next article, “Determining Loeal Noods t' 9 will appear In an early Issue. I Follow Through Do you believe working people have a right to organize and bargain as a group for their general betterment? Do you believe a man who has saved some money has a right to invest it in any business he likes and to operate that business, trying to make a reasonable profit? Do you believe that big-volume pro duction at low cost is the key to good pay? My answer is yes, to all three questions.If you agree, you subscribe to the fundamentals of the Labor-Manage- ment Charter. It was signed in Washington last March 28 by William Green for the American Fed eration of Labor, Eric Johnson for United States Chamber of Com merce, and Phil Murray for the Congress of Industrial Organiza tions. It is a powerful document, able (if carried out) to do the world more good than the famous Atlantic Charter. Nothing Original People who work surely have rights. Open competition is certain ly fair. Economy of time and effort yields positive rewards. These ideas are not original. They are old and time-tested principles. AU of them stand out clearly in the teachings of Jesus and of many great men who have lived and enriched the world more recently. They appear in the Labor-Management Charter. Besides declaring the rights of la bor, the fairness of competition and the dividends of economy, the La- bor-Management Charter contains two vital pledges: (I) To settle in dustrial disputes peaceably — no Strikes, no violence, no lockouts, no trickery,' and (2) To support a sound economic system in America—an expanding foreign trade, and an en during peace. Both are perfectly sound. Big Responsibility Being the richest and strongest nation in the world, the United States has a serious responsibility. It is graver than ever now, with a global war to finish and the world to be set in order. Miss Columbia must point the way and she stands at the crossroads. America’s choice wUl determine which way the whole world goes; to peace and plenty or to poverty and oppression. Of the 200 bilUon people who have lived on earth, not more than 2% could caU their souls their own. The way of the world has always been oppression and it still is. Now espe- ciaUy the trend is toward dictator ship. Not 20% of the people now livhig ever dreamed of freedom and prosperity like we enjoy, but Amer ica is in actual danger of being car ried with the poUtical tide. Jobs and Markets The Labor-Management Charter points the right way: toward freedom of faith, security of ownership, and liberty in self-government. Like any guide-post it is powerless in itself, useful only if it is followed. If followed, however, it indicates an orderly transition from war to vic tory in peace and prosperity. If it is ignored, our alternate course leads to economic war, government by edict, lower wages, and less of the things people want. The system of open competition in enterprise made America the world’s most influential nation and kept it in the forefront of human progress for 170 years. A recent survey shows that conservative busi ness men are ready, if they have a ''hance, to offer more than one job r available worker after the war. r full employment, good pay, Iv markets and active business, s follow through with the Labor- ' cement Charter.

When the threads of life are crossed Twisted, tangled, every way, When each clue and end seems lost Wbat should Christians do but pray?

When some tillage-field we kept From the evit one each day, Ili iiilli Swtwlllt wtslT Whit should LiiHstIitis do but pray, Wbeo some one with carnal tbou’t Daubing with untempered clay, Spoilstbe work onr hands have wrought, What should Christians do but pray? When the opening brings to view Flies that in the ointment lay, And the trusten prove untrue, What should Christians do but pray? When such problems tougher grow And these trials come to stay, If direction we would know, What should Christians do but pray? Author Unknown, Prayer will straighten out life’s entanglements and solve onr prob Iiems wben nothing else can. If we could learn this, once and forever, we conld save ourselves of many needless worries and futile efforts to straighten our entanglements and solve our problems. God knows how, but we don’t. When multi tudes of people find themselves all entangled with difficult things, or find the devil has woven webs of evils about their lives and souls, they don’t know what to do. Of tentimes they set about to extricate themselves bv their own efforts, or by resorting to law with the un godly, but this never untangles the web Only God can straighten out lives and souls tbat are caught in rbe devil’s entanglements. Then turn to God for help. Let Him have your life, with all its entang. Iements, problems and difficulties. He can set you clear and free of everything tbat sin and the devil has mussed you up with. Yield unreservedly unto Him and see what He can and will do for you. Vour case is not too 'difficult for Him when once you are all on the altar and wholly given up to His blessed will He will gloriously lead you out, set you free and give you victory In your life and soul, and then enable you to become a burning and shining light among men, blessing their lives and souls and bringing honor and glory to God.

The uge difference is the result of having to wait until the 1935 General Assembly could enact ISws to take advantage of the Social Security Act which was signed by the President on Aug. 14,1935 There are many phases of the so cial security program covered in the broad federal legislation with two of them the diiect responsibility in North Carolina of county depart ments of public welfare. Aid to the needy agep and aid to families of de pendent children, as administered by ttlQ COQDtjr departments under sup* ervision of the State Board of Publii! Welfare, have meant much to the state's economically unfortunate in the Iasteight years. In terms of actual dollars and cents the old age assistance and the aid to dependent children programs have meant $22 786,000 in Federal money spent in this state in the last eight years. Of that sum $16,391,- 000 was allocated to North Carolina for grants and administration for the needv aged, while the remaining $6,395,000 was for dependent chil dren. Of course the national gov ernment does not bear the entire cost of these programs since the state and county 'governments each put up one fourth of the amount ne cessary for grants, In eight yegrs a total of $30,887,000 in copbined federal, state and county funds have been spent to help the aged, and $12,151,000 to help dependent child* ren. This makes a total outlav of $43,038,000 for grants for tha first eight years of operation of these programs in North Carolina. The idea of the social security pro grams did not originate in America. Several European nations had long experience with them In une form or another before the Social Secur ity Act brought federai participation 10 years ago. With Europe looking now to re construction for peace, many nations are developing more comprehensive plans in the field of social security. Internationally the world Is follow ing this trend in one conference af ter another. Herein America the public is awake to the need for wi der coverage and increased resour ces for protection of al' citizens such as extension of public assistance to include all needy persons expanded health care, and admission of farm and domestic service groups to in surance benefits available to those in other lines of employment. While through the action of the 1945 legislature North Carolina ad vanced in some respects beyond pre sent federal legislation, this state is still far down tbe list in average payments to needy aged and to de pendent children, rankidg forty-sixth and forty-fifth, respectively, among the 48 states today. At the end of June. 1945. the state was paying an average of only $12 50 per month to 23,753 needy aged, and an average of onty $24.79 a month to 6,118 fam ilies of dependent children contain ing a total of about 15,000 children. These amounta were far too small to meet tbe minimum needs of recip ients for food, clothing and shelter. The social secnrity benefits provid ed employed workeas through old age and survivor’s insurance are bandied directly by federal regional offices without any direct connection with state or county governments. Other phases of the federal program such as unemployment compensa tion, aid to needy bliud, and matern al and child health services are the direct responsibility of a state agen cy. The employment service, while federalized during the war, wi|l now be returned to state control. Thus, aid to the aged and aid t 6 dependent children are tbe only two of these programs administered in this state as tbe responsibility of the individ ual counties. Had all of those benefits been a- vailable at the end of the first World War. the early 1920’s doubtless would have been considerably softened With the financial cid programs of old age assistance and aid to depon- dent cbildren.now well developed in Go Right Ahead Speedy reconversion to peace, elimination of Federal red tape, a bandonment of bureaus and other superfluous agencies and a general return to personal liberty is champ- pioned by a senator who came up tbe hard way with the New' Deal, OIin Iohaston, of South Carolina. He’s quite blunt about it.

He finds the American citizen '‘sick and tired of somebody in Washington telling him what he can and cannot do ” He says tbat this citizen wants most of all to be allowed to return to a “normalcy' of hie. Tbe senator has ’his dan der up over this. Lots of people think that way and talk that way but there’s noth. ing much they can do about it. The senator can. He is parf of the government, a very important part, the United States Senate. Wade In, Senator, and go to work on tbe problem. That’s part of your job. Go right ahead, sir.—Charlotte Ob server. We Are Learning About Shortage The net result of all the comment and investigation relating to sugar shortage, butter shortage, cheese and milk products shortages, beef shortage, poultry shortage, pork shortage, lamb shortage, egg short age, dry bean shortage, and s ort- age piled upon shortage, it is clear as mud to tbe average citizen, He is told tbat cattle on the range number approximately 30 per cent more than ever before in history, but he can’t eat cattle on the range. In the butcher shop he sees horse meat, colt meat, much fish that waB never used before for anrtbing but crab bait, various insides of animals which are now sold for several cents a pound, and all manner of legiti mate food. The OPA, the War Food Adminis tration, and the Department of Agri culture are blamed for tbts situa tion. In all fairness, it should be Btated tbat no one agency is to blame, A world war upsets any domestic economy. But it is safe to Jay that tne “planned economy” which we accented as a war and anti-inflation measure, had a great deal to do with tbe disorganization and shortages in our normal sources of supply. Un controllable elements in a planned ec natny create shortages in many instances. Holding down tbe hog supply or the wool market may help some producers while it hurts tbe consumers of lard and wool skirts. The people must remember that idea of a controlled economy is no different than the philosophy of so* cialism which puts government into business to the exclusion of private citizens. Are we going back to a free economy with the risk and re wards which it entails, or will we be come resigned to accept the judg ment and oppressions of government in lieu of our own opinienB and free* dom of action after the was? We are having experience with a planned economy now on which to base our peacetime decisions.—Union Repub lican. An X mark after your name means you owe us. North Carolina, the county welfare departments will hava a considerable resource to help alleviate such eco nomic want as may develop after this war.

THE DAVlE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. or GMmAffl) MCE I l WAS in the later part of sum. * mer, 31 years ago, when the Bos* Wb Braves began to warm up and get winging in their famous flight Smm the bottom to the top, leading Sa a flour straight world series vic- Wey over Connie Mack’s Athletics, sated Bien the best team in baseball. STe began thinking of the Braves' miracle when George Stallings BMted Rudolph, Tyler and James in this successive order for three months, because most managers t<L day ' have deep trouble in getting by one game with three pitchers. Day after day back in 1914 it was Rudolph — Tyler — James — Rudolph — Tyler — James on through July—on through August — as through September until the same Sris — working in this order — cleaned up the Mackmen in four zuisiy October afternoons. Here was ane of the most remarkable com- lnnaticns in pitching history. Dick Bsdolph won 27 games that sea son, and. he was ably supported by TVIer and James. In talking with Rudolph after the ■ he had an interesting angle SmatiandBice “i’il tell you why we did so well,” Wek said. “Working every third day, w« had a much better chance in keep better control, to keep our anas in pitching condition, and to BeBd np our confidence. I can see Boaeason why any able-bodied pitcher can’t work every third or fourth game. Why, Ed Walsh worked in C6 games back jn 1908 or 1909 and mnn 40 of them, saving 10 or 12 atoms. I’ve seen strong pitching d lls pulled back because their best BMB worked every fifth or sixth day, B int isn’t enough work to strengthen a pdcher’s arm or to keep his con- mA s you know, control is a lot Bawe than a matter of bases on Balls. It is also a matter of putting the ball where you want it to go, or low, over the outside or Rie made comer. You can’t get Riat sort af control working every fifth or math. day. Even after pitching most •C the Braves games for three months we were still in top shape Bb the world series. It has always been my belief that pitchers should Be worked in something well over 399 innings each season to keep them, in shape and to keep them geared up for their best work. I Inow that’s why and how we won Ihe pennant and the big series. We had enough work in the box to Seep, right.” Rudolph Was Right Rractically every fact you can Tfjri up proves that Dick Rudolph Bad the answer. We have seen most at the great pitchers of baseball. In this list you’d have to include Cy Young, Walter Johnson, Christy Matoewsen, Grover Alexander, Carl Mubbell and Bob Feller. Old Cy was always good for better than 300 innings. Walter John- scB in his best years averaged around 370 innings. Alexander and Xathewson averaged around 360 ta ttings. In his two best years, 1915 sad 1916, Alexander worked 376 and SSS innings. This amount of pitching turned Adrarms into steel. It helped them Co Keep the ball where they wanted M to- go- It kept them conditioned, .sadt also was a big factor In keep- Bag them, confident. Br comparison with these brilliant' records from former years, take a Bxdc at the modern breed. Last year Stere were only two pitchers in the American league who worked over SB innings and they were Hal New- fiooser and Dizzy Trout. What happened? Together they won 56 ball games. Not another pitcher in the American League worked over 270 innings. None of the others drew mnch more than a warm up, doing about two-thirds of a season’s job. What about the National League? Bill Voiselle of the Giants with 313 was the only pitcher in this circuit to pass the 300 inning mark. None af the others reached 290. Most of Amn fell below 250 innings. This «an?t be helped where a pitcher has a sure arm, but hard working pitch- m s sandy have sore arms. Xofat Siddall, one of our best edi tors, once wrote—“There is no sub stitute far work.” This goes for pitchers also. 4Td like to have a pitcher who could work over 300 innings,” a man ager recently said when he brought up the argument that most pitch ers were far underworked. "The trouble most of us are hav- feg now is getting a pitcher who can last five innings.” This is true,lot no pitcher working only 180 or JBB tailings from April to October is gsing to have any chance to.de-VCfBft fa strengthen his arm, to Vi3 d op his control — or amount to much. It would be much better Jto modern pitchers to work more to ButAig practice or at least find aapsu method of throwing the ball attener. They need stronger, toogher arms. They need better con- BmIl And Aey can get this in no UXk x way. I Company Dinners Easy to Prepare Even on Slim Budget Green beans take on extra appeal triien prepared with shrimp and a curry sauce.

ANXIOUS TO PLEASE A famous evangelist of fifty years ago was a gentleman farmer in his leisure moments. Between engagements as a revivalist, he would spend a week or two on his farm at Northfield, Mass., bossing the hired help and discussing crops with the neighboring farmers, who were always trying to unload their decrepit stock at fancy prices.On one occasion he spent a whole afternoon bargaining for a cow. The owner was so vague about the ani mal’s antecedents and characteristics that the evangelist finally got impatient.“Come now,” he roared, striking the side of the barn a mighty blow with his fist, “how much milk does she give?” His New England neighbor was not daunted by oratory. After a long pause, he said, reflectively; “Wal, I don’t know as I can answer that question precisely. I ain’t never measured what Deborah gives, to be truthful.

MOT long ago, Russian armies _ were lined up on the Oder, fac ing desperateNazi resistance before Berlin. On the 14th of February, nearly4,000 bombers and fighters, part British, part American, flew to that vital sector and smashed at enemy strong points and concen trations. Some planes actually un loaded their bombs only 12 miles in front of the Russian spearhead! That was Combined Operations. In Burma, a British Admiral led tough U. S. Rangers, Tommies from all parts of the Empire, Indian Ghurkas and Sikhs, Chinese foot soldiers, carrying weapons made in Bridgeport. AJI wore different uniforms. But all shared in their hearts a single determination—to destroy the arch-destroyers, to con quer the common enemy. That is Combined Operations— two words that affect toe future of mankind. Wehaveleamed toe lesson that to win this war we had to fight side by side with out allies, regardless of race, religion or politics. And now, with durable peace within out grasp, we cannot aban don that lesson. Unity, efficiency, fellowship, international coopera- ikm 'must be continued.

' The new Health Officer is Doctor Alfred Mordicai. Miss Anoe Clement, of Mocks ville, is acting secretary and book-keoper. Otherwise there are no changes of the staff in r avie County. Mrs-RachelStroud. of Mocksviile, and Mrs. Margaret Green, of Cooleemee. continue to serve in the din- ics and county-at-large as Public Health Nurses, while Miss Jessie Ubbv Stroud continues in the capaoity of clerk and as sistant The last-named persons are well known throughout the county and need no introduction. Tbe new unit is now negotiating for the procurement of a qualified sanitary officer whose duty it will be to regularly inspect public eating places, soda fountains and cold-drlnk stands, dairies, markets, town water supply sources and sewage disposal systems. Also he will be available to any citizen of the county for consultation con cerning special sanitary problems or ad vice relative to such matters. Public schools will open shortly for c new term. Clean faces, clean teeth, nice ly brushed hair, clean clothes.clean minds and healthy bodies will be the order of the day. Children who may how be suf fering with whooping cough, or any other known contagious disease, should not be enrolled until cleared by a private physi cian or member of the Heaith Department. Youngsters who have not had whooping cough, and who have not been already vaccinated against this disease, should be immunized during the coming month, eith er by private physicians nr the Health De partment. just as soon as existing facili ties will permit. The new Health Officer has been brows ing quietly about the county lately to get his bearings. He says that there was a time not so long ago when the average farm-yard was more or less unsightly and unsanitary, while the town places appear, ed comparatively bright and clean. It now seems that nature is trying to reverse it self. Despite labor shortages and other handicaps, the hard-working farmer is mowing his lawns, burning up his trash, removing unsightly rubbish, cultivating a few flowers and showing a new outlook on life. Town folks are asked to look their back yards over a bit. The new Health Officer has also silently observed some of tha eating places and lunch stands. Some of these places are considerable below standard. There are __ _ m [ too many unclean toilets with nnmerousVeterans Service Notes flies in c|ose to the iunch ™un I ters and fond stuffs.

Food handlers should be neat and clean, as well as the premises in general. Those who operate such establishments will be given timely notice after inspection in which Jtn make necessary repairs and to correct defects. Also the Health Department will stand prepared to give helpful advice to those who seek it.

So This Is, or Was, Hiroshima NO DUKE CHURCHILL When Winston Churchill turned down a knighthood this week, his son, Randolph Churchill, probably heaved a big sigh of relief. For it meant that his father, In turning down this lesser honor, probably would not accept a duke dom or any other high reward Should the elder Churchill accept a peerage, he would move into the House of Lords, which would mean that his son, Randolph, upon his father’s death, automatically would become a lord, thereby forfeiting the chance of a fighting political career as a commoner. To inherit a title is the last thing young Churchill wants. His future career lies in the House of Com mons, like his father. Snowing his son’s ambition, the prime minister used to hold a sword of Damocles over Randolph’s head. When the mer curial Randolph got out of hand, his father half-jokingly would warn: “Tut, tnt. Be careful or I’ll take a peerage.” * * • BATTLE OVER STEEL One of the hottest fights in the Whole hot history of the War Pro duction board has been raging back stage regarding the future alloca tion of steel to industry. It is a fight affecting almost every business in the country — large and small — and if the big industry boys get their way, civilian manufactur ers will get less material even than during the third quarter of this year, when we were still fighting a two-front war. The fight is over how sheet steel shall be allocated. Basically, this boils down to whether the big automobile companies will get it all, or whether other manufacturers will be given at least a little. It is exactly the same fight, in re verse, which occurred before Pearl Harbor. At that time, the automobile industry was using up most of the sheet steel. War production was held up until their output could be curtailed, and the auto boys pulled all sorts of wires to keep on pro ducing cars. Now, the same wires are being pulled to let steel be completely free, and not allocated to anyone. This is just another way of saying that the automobile companies will get it all, because they are the biggest peace time buyers of steel and the steel companies naturally like to please their best customers. Big Business WPB Today, the War Production board, under chairman "Cap” Krug, is more big - business - controlled than ever, so the automobile boys may get their way. Their fight inside WPB is be ing led by Vice Chairman Harold Boeschenstein, whose glass com pany sells headlights to auto manufacturers. He and other WPB moguls argue that the . present “controlled materials plan” should be “open-ended,” in . other words, after a steel mill has completed its “must” gov- • ernment orders, it can sell what ever steel is left over to any one it wishes. Hitherto, farm machinery, hardware, the railroads and va rious war-supporting industries got definite steel allocations from the government. They were al ways assured some steel. Under the new proposal, however, .they would have to scramble for it in competition with the auto mobile companies. While the railroads, farm imple ment companies, et al, doubtless can look after themselves, a long list of small manufacturers also would be affected — those making hardware, electric irons, washing machines, etc. Hitherto, they have been able to get a certain amount of steel al located to them by WPB. But under the proposed new plan, they would have to scramble for it. And in any battle with the auto companies, it is not difficult to guess where they would come out. Actually there will be very little steel to scramble for. 'After war needs and war-supporting needs are met, it is estimated only about 1,- 000,000 tons of sheet steel will be left over. If WPB moguls have their way, however, the scramble will begin in the fourth, quarter of this year. NOTE—It will be up to new War Mobilizer John Snyder to make the final decision. MERRY-GO-ROUND ' C. Every mother’s son west of the Mississippi river — and some east— are making moves to get the cabi net job of the toughest, most fear less member of the FDR cabinet— Harold Ickes.

However, “Harold the Ick” may fool ’em.

Congresswoman Acts SL ^ U e J f o m e (l& p & d e S L In WASHINGTON By Walter Shead YfNU Cerrupendtal WJfU Wasbiagtoa Bureau €21 Uaion Trust Building, What Congress Left Undone. (V/IEMBERS of the 79th congress IvI are now back in their home towns for their summer vacations, lasting until congress convenes again on October 8. Some few of them contrived to take junkets to Alaska, Europe or the Pacific “on business of congress.” This session will go down in his tory as the one that abruptly re versed the traditional isolationist policy of self-sufficiency, to one of full co-operation with other nations on military, social, economic and cultural questions. Ratification of the United Na tions charter by the senate, adoption of the Bretton Woods agreement, the Reciprocal Trades agreements and the Agricultural and Food agree ments by both houses of con gress mark important mile stones in the life of the nation to ward world peace and security. But this reporter feels that when congress adjourned for the sum mer it did so with some trepidation over sins of omission. It had left un done many things necessary to safe guard our domestic economy — things dangerous to postpone until after next October, particularly re conversion plans. Grave Matters Shelved It did nothing on full employment, except to hold some belated hear ings on the Murray bill, introduced last January. It did nothing on the “human” side of reconversion, such as acting on President Truman’s proposal for an emergency $25 per week for 26 weeks for laid-off workers. It did nothing about sub-stand ard wages among some 17 million white collar and other workers to raise minimum wages to at least 65 cents an hour. It did nothing about enlarging the social security program to include farmers and small business and professional men, as provided in the Murray - Wag ner bill. It did nothing about the report of the Mead War Investi gating committee which- urged immediate control of all war agencies by the office of war mobilization, and severely criticized government de lay in reconversion plans. It did nothing about government work programs to tide over any emergency. It did rush through a measure in tended to give some tax relief to business, but did nothing about a general interim tax revision, consid- ered necessary for reconversion. W e Will Be Unready For Peace This twinge of conscience was apparent in a meeting of some 20 sena tors and a published outline of a program of pending legislation, made the day before adjournment. The Mead committee report declared that if the war in the Pacific ends soon, it will find us largely unpre pared to overcome our domestic problems. Unless reconversion is speeded up, unemployment on a large scale will ensue. Many folks here believe that end of the Jap war will come within the next two to four months, and the feeling among those in position to know best is divided about half and half on that proposition. Congressional leaders apparently are among the 50 per cent who look for a longer war in the Pacific. Another thing left undone was establishment of presidential succes sion which President Truman urged be done immediately. Many leaders here think this to be one of the most important and vitally essential questions at this time. So if the end of the war in the Pacific does come sooner than congress thinks, the expected tempor ary chaos in which our domestic economy will flounder can be laid directly at the door of congress. They have been forewarned, not only by the President, but by reports of conscientious and authoritative committees of their own member ship.

F C A T U R K S f*, CHATTER I Within the firm walls of flesh that held him prisoner the foal lddced out angrily. He did not want to be born. The violent constrictions of the walls of his house, which came un expectedly, disturbed his long peaceful growth and put him in a fury, and he unfolded himself and Aicked again and again. He wanted no change. Here was quiet darkness—nothing to prick and tantalize his eyes. Here was se curity — no possible .harm could reach him. Here was food without effort or even knowledge on his part. Here was the softest floating bed to buffeT him against shock. Here was warmth that never fluc tuated. Here was—(in some dim way he felt it)—love and protection from his mother’s heart. He would not be born. Twice before he had foiled the la bor pains, and his dam had resigned herself and had contihued to carry him. (She was the handsome sorrel mare called Flicka, belonging to young Ken Md,aughlin of the Goose Bar ranch.) She had stood patiently, not moving much, up in the stable pasture Just beyond the corrals. And it had become the habit of everyone at the ranch, Rob and Nell McLaughlin, and their two boys Howard and Ken, and Gus and Tim, the hired hands, to walk out to see her every day, to note how patiently she stood, getting larger and larger, her bright and lively nature changed to somber brooding. If any one went near her hindquarters she kicked at them.Visitors to the ranch went out to Inspect her too. One said to Nell McLaughlin, "That’s the hugest mare I ever saw.” "She's not so huge,” said NelL "It’s just that she's carrying a colt that should have been bom in the spring, and here it is, nearly time for the boys to go bade to Laramie to school, and still she hasn't foaled.” They all agreed that now end then such things happened to mares and everyone could tell of a case. There was much curiosity as to what the colt would be like. He surely ought to be a good one, big and strong and well developed. The laboring mare lay down on the ground. TUe foal, impose his will as he might, was helpless. The violent surges continued, coming at regular intervals, and he was being turned this way and that as if by intelligent hands, until he took the position of a diver, front hoofs stretched out and his little muzzle - resting on them. Then he felt pain for the first time and would have struggled and kicked if he could have, but he was held in a vise and could not move. Pressure was strong against him on all sides. There was the sensation of move ment through a passage and sud denly a jar as he slid out to the earth. ' For a moment he was sheltered from the air and the light by the envelope of membrane in which he was enclosed; then the mare gained ,her feet and whirled around and her teeth and tongue stripped him of the membrane and he began to breathe. From that moment on all that he knew was pain, for the breathing hurt his lungs, and, opening his eyes, they were stabbed by blinding flashes of light. Terror came when his ear drums were ham mered upon by crashes of thunder, and he reacted by giving little chok ing bleats and trying to sit up. Icy rain sluiced upon him. The hard ground upon which he lay was run ning with water.IBs mother licked said licked him. This warmed him and brought the blood to the surface of his body. He yearned to be closer to her and struggled to rise but had not yet the strength. There was no mercy for him In the skies. It was the collision of sev eral storms that had ridden up from the lowlands to this high peak of the Wyoming Rocky Mountain Di vide. Clusters of purple founder- heads struggled mightily, hurling themselves against each other with detonations Oat shook the ground. Vide bands of intolerable light stabbed from zenith to earth. ■ But there was mercy for the colt closer by, and he knew IL His feeble struggles to rise became stronger. His mother's licking tongue encouraged him. T m yearning to reach the warmth and shelter of her body grew to a passion—be must, must get to her. And so, long before the storm was over, the foU had found his feet. The teat, hot and swollen, was In his mouth. He was safely anchored; and because of foe danger and pain so latebf experienced, his awareness was sharpened. Warmth and milk were more than food—they were an ecstasy.I Ken McLaughlin was .hunting his 8UT*.A thin, twelve-year-dld boy, with a shock of soft brown hair falling over dark Mtte eyes that had a shadow as well as a dream In them, H estoodloddngatfoa place near foe corrals where Flicka should have been and could hardly believe that it was empty, for more than once a day all through this last month since he had stopped rid ing her he had been out to see whether She had foaled, and she bad never been far from her feed box. This- afternoon she had been near the spill of fresh water that ran out of the corral trough, but now there was no sign of her. This meant, Ken knew, that her time had come, and his heart beat a little foster. She had hidden herself away, as all animals will if they are free, to give birth to her foal with no one to Witness her labor and pain and victory. As the boy hesitated there, his eyes scanning the pine woods that edged the pasture, his wits were at work. H he had been Flicka and had wanted to hide, where would he have gone? And !immediately he turned to the woods. Those woods, sparse and free of underbrush, cov ered the rocky shoulder of the stable pasture where it sloped away, north, to the little stream called Deercreek which bounded it. The hill was so precipitous in places Warmth and milk were more than food. They were an ecstasy. that it formed low cliffs overhung with twisted pines. At the base of them were caverns. Ken and How ard knew every foot of these ter raced cliffs. They had been there on foot and on horseback. Flicka and Highboy—their saddle horses— knew them too, and had become accustomed to the steep paths down which they must slide on their haunches with the boys clinging to their backs like monkeys; or the scramble up, during which the boys kept from sliding off backwards only by tanglilig their fists in the horses’ manes. Flicka might be on any one of those narrow shelves or pockets, or hidden in one of the littie dells at foe base of a cliff. She knew them alL Ken darted toward the woods. It had just begun to rain. The boy cast a careless glance at the sky, refused to accept the warning of what he saw there, tellipg himself that it would be just a shower from which the trees would shelter him, and began his search.Occasionally he stopped and called her, "Flicka I Flicka I” and then stood listening In that peculiar state of tension which everyone feels when they call and are not an swered.The daylight on those September evenings held until after eight o'clock, but this evening there was a murky gloom, and under some of foe trees there were already pock ets of darkness into which Ken stared for minutes before being sure that no living thing was there. The rain pattered like shot on foe ground, and presently Ken heard foe long familiar roll of drums in foe sky. Suddenly a wind was roaring. The mass of dark clouds sank toward foe earth, then opened and poured out torrents of fain. Light ning blazed and founder crashed.The boy, crossing an open dell, caught the full brunt of it and dove under a projecting, shelf-like rock, which had left a shallow cava be neath. A small cottontail was sit ting primly there for shelter. As Ken foot in, foe cottontail shot out, and foe boy, panting, drew up his knees and clasped them and sat looking at the spectacle of foe storm with an expression of exultation on his thin eager face. Such torrents of water were com ing down that presently the earth was covered. Runnlngstream store between foe trees and font off foe cliff-tops. A good-sized rivulet swept under Ken's sheltering rock, and in a moment he was immersed and drenched. He rolled out from under and stood choking and laughing, shaking foe water out of his eyes. Then, since he could be no wetter, he decided to Ignore the storm and continue his search for Flicka. Either the wind was getting cold er or the rain was turning to hail or snow, for his wet jersey was like ice against his skin as he trotted in and out of the paths and trees. Often in September there were snowstorms on foe top of foe Divide, and it seemed to him one was com ing now. Up here in foe high altitude one day it was snowing and the next like summer. Ken came upon Flicka in a little dell at the foot of a cliff, cut by foe narrowest thread of a path. She stood under an over-hanging tree, but even that could do littie to pro. tect her against the rain. When he saw the foal beside her, he stood staring. There had never been a white foal born on foe Goose Bar Ranch before. He could hardly be lieve it. There came a dry fullness in his throat Flicka—Flicka’s foal —her first I And not only off color, but white) A throwback! It was a shock to him. He called her name quietly. She turned her head and he went to her. She looked anxiously at the foal. Ken stood staring down at it in foe gatherifig darkness. White and nar row and with head beaten down by foe pouring rain, tilted toward its mother—it looked as though it might fell over any minute. Flicka gave a little grunting whinny. Ken could understand her talk, and he knew she was cold and miserable and worried about the foal. They should both of them be in foe barn, and Flicka should have a good pall of hot mash. He won dered if foe foal could follow her up that thread of a path, and coaxed the mare to try foe ascent. She would not move. Ken put his belt around her neck and led her up. The little one, coming after her, with wavering steps, struggled but could not follow, flicka, turning, saw it halted here. She balked. Ken slipped the belt off her neck and she backed down to foe foal and licked it. Somehow foe foal must be got up foe path. Ken wondered it he could drag or carry it. Often he and How-, ard, wrestling with foe little foals as they trained them (part of foe work of their summer vacations) would clasp their arms around them, lift them off foe ground. One' little fellow Howard had carried all around with its long legs trailing.' But this was an unusually big colt—' Ken was doubtful. With his hand on Flicka’s neck he sidled toward the foal, speaking soothingly. “There, there, little fel low—wouldn't hurt you—don’t be frightened—it's all right, Flicka— 1 wouldn’t hurt your baby—you know, I wouldn’t—” The mare was excited and anxi ous and the foal, as Ken’s hand touched its neck, squealed and tried to struggle away. Ken put both arms around foe wet slippery body- and held tight, but lifting was a different matter. Still talking to Flicka, who was nickering nervous ly, Ken exerted all his strength. Sud denly he had a little kicking fighting demon In his arms and foe foal bared its four baby teeth and bit his arm. Ken dropped it. Flicka whirled close and stood protectively over it, Ken, scolding under his breath and holding his forearm that the foal’s teeth had pinched, realized that he must get help. He leaped up foe pathway.Gus and Tim, immediately after the supper dishes had been washed up, had taken the pick-up and driven over to foe Saturday night dance in Summervale’s bam at Tie Siding. Ken’s mother and father had gone in to town to dine with Colonel Har ris. There was no one but himself and Howard on foe ranch, and the responsibility was his own because flicka was his mare. Besides—this little foal—this particular foal—at the thought of all that depended on him, Ken’s feet flew fester, and his eyes, made keen and knowing by his Ufe on foe ranch, gazed at foe sky and foe clouds, gauging the storm— The wind was changing, veering around to foe east, aim, yes—what he had suspected was happening. Every raindrop now had e body to it, a Uttle core at slush—it was -hanging to snow. It beat on his face and ne arly blinded him.

JOSEPH’S PLACE IN GOD’S PLAN LESSON TEXT-Genesls 39:20-23; 41:14- 1«. 23, 41-43.GOLDEN TEXT—Seest thou a man diligent In his business? he. shall stand be. fore kings.—Proverbs 22:29. Does it pay to trust God? Does He know about the sorrows and the troubles of His people? Does He have anything to do with the affairs of the world? Men are asking such questions in our day, and we have the answer in God's dealings with men in the past.The story of Joseph is fascinating from almost any angle, but it holds no more important truth than that the man who honors God in his life will be honored by God (I Sam. 2:30), even in the hardest place, yes, and in the highest position.Joseph appears before us in our lesson as I. A Prisoner Prospered by God (39:20-23).It is surprising how often one finds God’s men in the Scriptures in pris on. Their determination to live upright and honorable lives ran so counter to the plans of the world that in the inevitable clash there came persecution. The story of how Joseph became the object of his brother’s jealousy and was sold as a slave into Egypt; how he prospered there only to be disgraced and imprisoned because of the lying accusation of an angry woman—all these are in the background of our lesson. Now that he was in prison, pre sumably his influence was gone and his usefulness at an end. Not so, for God can be with a man in foe pris on as well as in the palace. He soon became the head man of foe jail. Imagine a prisoner faking over the keeper’s work! Then, too, he there met foe king’s chief butler who, though forgetting for a time, did eventually say the word which brought Joseph back into power (see Gen. 40:14-23; 41:9-13). The obvious lesson and blessed truth here is that when one of God’s people finds himself in a difficult place, he can rest assured that God is there working out His own blessed purpose. Why not trust Him and look for His deliverance? Joseph the God-prospered prison er now becomes n. A Prophet.Prepared by God (41:14-16, 25). The hour had come when a man was needed who had a word from God. In preparation for the awful years of famine the Lord wanted to use the land of Egypt as His great granary. He wanted thus to pre serve the chosen nation of Israel, as well as to meet the needs of others. The vision of the king, plain as it seemed when interpreted, was un intelligible without the key from God, and He had his man prepared. Joseph was ready to be called from prison to speak the right word at the right time. How important it is that the Lord’s messengers be prepared and ready to respond in the hour of His blessing and opportunity! Many eager Christians look forward to the months and years just ahead of us as the greatest opportunity the Church has had to spread the gos pel. Notice that Joseph gave God the glory (w. 16-25). The one who really knows, what is going on in the world is quick to recognize that only the wisdom and the grace of God are sufficient for man’s need. Let the voice of boasting mankind be silenced and let the voice of God speak! Joseph’^ prophetic word marked him as God’s man to carry out God’s plan, so we see him now as In. A Premier Promoted by God (41:41-43). “I have set thee over all the land,” said Pharaoh, and so he had, but in reality it was God who had planned the whole matter. He wanted Joseph there at this time, and there he was. It may be well to stress the fact that God is interested in govern ment and in the men who hold pub lic office. In fact, the only true foundation for government is found in God. We are told to “be subject unto foe higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God” (Rom. 13:1).The Bible clearly teaches that ev ery governmental agency and every public servant, from the police man on the comer to the President in the White House, is permitted to exercise authority over his fellow- men only because God has ordained that there should be such govern, ment. Clear it is that every right-, thinking official of state and nation should be humble, teachable, discreet, and wise in foe exercise of his power, and God-fearing in foe discharge of his responsibility. He who reads may apply foe truth of God’s Word to himself and find personal blessing. It is a rich and powerful and stimulating Word. Let us use it for God’s glory!

For this reason, progressive town officials look forward to building an air service installation that will be attractive, convenient, , At Washington, the Civil Aeronau tics Administration has an airport division which will supply diagrams and working plans for air landing facilities of every description. Re gional offices of the Civff Aeronau tics Administration work closely with State aviation executives. Veurious privately operated avia tion organizations can provide much salient information. For instance, the National Aeronautic Association is helping communities to plan their air future and aiding them to gain their position on the "Main Line.1 More than 40 years of accumulated knowledge on aviation,-and particu- The Joint Airport Users Conference, designed by the Natituial Aero nautic Association as a discussion and study group, meets In Washington.

Fortunately, this is easily available. Both the Government and several non-profit aviation organizations are ready with information and advice from the early decision to have an air park through all the stages of select ing a suitable site and arranging for runways and buildings. The usual community will find that its State Capitol offers a wealth of information. Most states have avi ation commissions and boards functioning for this very reason. State officials know the local conditions and geography, are aware of what the neighboring towns are planning, and usually have data on the num ber of feeder or area airlines con templated and lists of prospective owners of personal planes.. Iarly on the construction of air facilities, is available. Many commu nities which have decided to estab lish airparks or other types of landing facilities have formed their own community chapters of the National Aeronautic Association. Two other groups ready and willing to plan and work with town avi ation planning organizations in this effort are the National Aviation Trades Association, located at Kan sas City, Missouri, and the Personal Aircraft Council of the Aircraft Tn- dustries Association of America at Washington, D.

LOOKING AffKAD GEORGE S. BENSON Ptesiint-Matitng Satiege Seateg. Jttkansea Paying Parliament How would you like to be elected to the board of governors of the finest country club you ever saw? Unless you are an exceptional person, you can’t afford such a job. It uses a lot of time and there’s na salary connected with it. Helping to boss a lovely palace in the middle of a big playground is fun (I imagine) but it’s an expensive pas time. People who habit such spots to en joy their spare time are in the financial upper brackets. If they work at all, they do things they enjoy do ing, or perhaps they do a few jobs nobody else can do as well. Such wealthy people are usually competent but they engage others to handle their routine work. This leisurely class is growing steadily smaller, but it still exists. Work Well Done A rich country club is proverbial ly well managed. It dees not need to economize and cut comers, but that’s only part of the story. It is governed by men of singular ability with spare time, who like their club and take personal interest in it. They have no better minds than men who hustle for business and use their wives for stenographers, but excellence thrives on calm deliberation. By the way, Mrs. Harry S. Tru man used to serve her husband as secretary when he was senator from Missouri. The President told it him self to the press while he was dis cussing the proposal to allow addi tional expense pay to representatives. It would be hard to find stronger testimony that members of the Congress of the United States need better compensation for the work they do. No Time to ThinkIn every practical sense, mem bers of Congress have been elected to the board of governors of the world’s grandest country — not a country club. They represent impor tant segments of people who have chosen them to help boss <not a playground) the most influential power under the shining sun, and, until early last June, they got $10,000 a year — the pay of a junior executive. One of America’s ugliest habits is criticizing Congress for shortcom ings that result directly from being poorly paid. No one man can study all the profound issues congressmen must vote on, and no $10,000 man can afford to pay experts to digest them. Often congressmen use precious hours doing chores for people back home because they can’t afford enough competent assistants. A Good Man’s JobMany solons labor intemperately, Rep. Doughton, who is past 81, rises regularly at 5:00 a.m., and starts his 12-hour day at 6:30; this after 34 years in the House and 14 years chairman of the Ways & Means Committee. What $100,000 official of industry claims to be worth more to his firm than Doughton is to his state and nation? American legisla tors are top-flight, except in pay. Must we send rich men to Con gress because poor men lack funds to finance the job, or can’t afford to maintain an extra home in wealthy Washington? Do we want incompetents on Capitol Hill who stay there because they could never earn so much anywhere else? The answer is ‘no” of course; America can afford the best. Then congratulate your congressman on this increase and don’t let him wait 20 years for the next one.
