PltBMRED BV AMERICAN FOUNDATION FOR ANIMAL HEALTH BLOOD CELL DISEASE KILLS MANY CATTLE ' Some twenty years ago a Kansas veterinarian identified a blood disease of cattle, previously unknown in the United States, The disease "anaplas- mosls” or “pasture sickness’’ Is in many ways like human malaria, for it is caused by a tiny parasite which attacks the red blood cells. Today, this disease has reached serious pro­ portions—is now present in at least 33 states and has also been identified In sheep. Anaplasmosis is spread from the Mood of one animal to.another in a variety of ways. It may be trans­mitted by mosquitoes, biting flies, and ticks. Outbreaks have also been traced to improperly sterilized dehorning shears, castrating knives, and con­ taminated hypodermic needles. Any object which contacts blood of an affected animal, then punctures the SM* of a healthy animal, may trans­ mit the disease. Symptoms Include a quick drop In weight and general condition and sometimes jaundice. The eyeballs, lin­ ing of the mouth, and Skin' of the IlMers may have a yellow color. On examination after death, all tissues are abnormally yellow and the gall bladder greatly enlarged.' Veterinarians are well acquainted with the areas where anaplasmosis is known to occur with frequency. Hence any siek.'oss of this nature noticed in Animals recovering from Anaplas­mosis. newly arrived animals or in home herds on pasture should be Inves­ tigated Immediately. There is no vaccine or serum as yet developed to prevent anaplasmo­sis, hence it Is Important to avoid introduction of the disease into new territories. Owners should also re­ member that recovered animals act as carriers for a long time. Ridding animals of ticks, protection from flies, and extreme care In using vaccin­ating and dehorning equipment are essential In prevention.

A THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. lDn , / M A A Y O 'H A R A _ . ' W.M.U. FEATURES'*-*, — -. - THE SHORT THUS FAR: Flicka’, colt, long ovcrdne, is Iiorn on the Goose Bar ranch, high In the Rockies. Its 12-year. old owner, Kcn McLaughlin, Is startled to eeo that It Is white, and so a throwback to the Albino, a wild stallion that In grandsire of Flicka. KentS mother names the white foal H i underbead, but It Is commonly known as Goblin. At a dinner Party Ken reveals that the sire of Thim- derhead Is not Banner, the Geose Bar stallion, bat Appalachian, the. Mack rac­ ing stud owned by Charles Sargent on the neighboring ranch. Ken suddenly realises that he has stolen the service. Sargent laughs and oilers to give Ken papers for his colt. Ken answers that he can only expect ttUaiTt papers. CHAPTER VH Wind — and wind — and wind — knocking you down when you tried to walk or stand against it. Mak­ ing a noise that was first like a whine, and then a howl that hit a high note and stayed there—piercing you, getting into your head - and making you crazy— And the snow. Days, weeks of being shut in by deep snow that sometimes drifted over windows and doors so that even to get out and see Hie sun you bad to make a tunnel— Oh, all of it hard! Hard! Suddenly Nell was in a state of frenzy and despair. They hadn't wanted it to be like this. The horses were to have made money enough so that she and Rob could have had plenty of help—a furnace in the house—a vacation to a warmer climate every winter when the boys were at school and there was little to. do on the ranch except try to keep warm and alive. Money, money, money — it all came back to that! Her mind dashed this way and that, doubling on itself, to find a way out.Horses. Nothing but horses. The Goblin—suddenly she seized that im­possible dream of Ken’s—was it so impossible? Thiiik of the ancestry of that colt! It was Rob who had first admitted he wanted one horse of the Albino’s line who should be tractable—“and I’ll have a race horse!” It was she herseif who had planned and suggested breeding Flicka so they might get a colt with both her sweetness of disposi­ tion and her speed.But the Goblin had neither. Nell tightened her hands into a harder fist. That inner fury which comes over high-spirited people when they are too often defeated filled her. She couldn’t and wouldn’t take it. Some­thing had to succeed. Goblin—his short thick legs could grow long and swift. His bumpy shape, his big head, his bad balance, could some­how smooth out into magnificent proportions. His mean temper, that ugly readiness to bite and kick and stand at bay in enmity to all, could change to the intelligent docility of Flicka. And speed! Flicka’s very same speed. Rocket’s speed. The Al­ bino’s speed—speed—SPEED! - Suddenly Nejl was riding a rac­ ing dream, running away to victory. Goblin! No, not Goblin any more, but THUNDERHEADt The racing stallion of the Goose Bdr ranch! The big white brute leading the fiild on every track in the coun­ try! What colors would their jockey wear? Cherry red and white. Who would be the champion he would displace? Seabiscuit, of course — and would himself become then, not only great racer but great sire of racers, begetting hundreds of win­ ners after him, every stud fee bring­ ing thousands of dollars. Goblin must never be gelded—The bubble of her dream burst.Suddenly she was exhausted. She had lived through the winter; half a dozen blizzards; the winning of scores of races by Goblin; an alter­ cation with Rob as to the gelding of him; had made thousands of dol­lars and spent them. She was sick of it all. Besides—none of it was true. She forced herself. She studied the room. That was real. There was moonlight flooding through the win­ dow. Look at it. That hump was Rob sleeping beside her. This was the ranch. It was going to be winter- just like all the other winters—just like all the storms and dangers— they were poor and going to be poorer — nothing had ever suc­ceeded and it was quite possible, even likely, that nothing ever would. She had read something clever about that one day, telling you that if you wanted to know what the future would be—look at. .the past and merely extend itt . Laying the whip to herself in this fashion, she began to come to life, and again her anger rose. There wasn’t a day or a moment.that you were really ‘safe here. The ele­ments could kill you as easily as a fly-swatter kills a fly. And at any season of the year, a bad storm, or flood, or drought, or plague of grasshoppers, or an epidemic, or a fire, or merely the wrong sort of weather at the wrong time could Weep away all the work of a year and all hope with it That she thought sarcastically, to probably the fascination of it for men like Rob. Adventurers. It’s such a big gamble, with an the odds against you. It’s the most exciting, dramatic life in the world.Feriing the fife stirring In her again, even though it was the liveli­ ness of anger, riie tried to penetrate the truth still more deeply. Was her indignation true? Did she actually hate her realities?I PeMing down, almost mischie­ vously, into thtoSecret comer of her heart, she saw the deepest truth and accepted it. She was as ready as Rob to take all the chances, share all the dangers, endure the priva­ tions. She too had been bom "fac­ ing tiie wind.” There stole into her the hint of ecstasy. She pressed her face on her knees. The very terribleness of dread seduced her and filled her veins with strong wine. And the beauty—the fierce, dreadful' beauty of winter! The summers—Oh, the summers! The unbelievable deep blue of the mountain skies—the huge sculptured clouds, the green grass —the young animals,-wild and free with startled eyes, the swift run­ ning, heels kicking, the perfume, smell of mint and sage and 'pine and grass and clover and snow, clean from a sweep of hundreds of miles of emptiness— And the lone­ liness — Ah, not loneliness, but serene, deep, tranquil solitude—just herself and Rob and the boys— AU her fevered thought became stiU. She crouched quietly there, fuU of a mysterious happiness. As Goblin developed there were changes in his appearance and be­ havior. Certain habits left him, cer­tain coltish accomplishments were acquired. The "scrabble” was gone, and in its place came the long springing trot characteristic of young colts, this owing, perhaps, to an inch or two of added length on each leg. He learned the art of wrestling. His usual antagonist was Pepper, a tall black colt. On an expanse of level ground where the wind had raf!® K C A . ^ **- *».**„ -* Vs -5SJ.***' * -T- Goblin stopped running around and lorited at Ken. blown off most of the sngyr, they gal­oped in opposite directions, circling in figure eights. When they passed each other at the center point they would pause, rear and strike at each other. Here began the beauti­ful play, bending to one side or the other,, intertwining heads, then slid­ ing down, almost kneelirig to. bite at the foreleg, rising high on hind legs again to' exchange a flurry of boxing blows, their manes and tails —the black and the white—lifted and stiffened by burning vigor until they flared like open fans. Sudden­ ly the young stallions would plunge past each other and, as if in a pre­arranged dance routine, rush away in the figure eights again, their hooto thundering on the ground. Goblin also became an accom­ plished bucker. On icy mornings when the sun blazed down and the air was a fierce intoxication, all the colts broke away from their dams and banded together for play. They raced up mid .over the brow of gentle rise .and Came' down the other side.bucking, A few playful bucks sufficed for most of the colts, but not for the Goblin. His bounds became higher, his legs stiffer, the twist of his solid powerful little body more acute. It seemed to.go to his head. At last he would be alone there, when the game' was all over; bucking solo in a mad, intem­perate ecstacy. When, in December, the spring colts were weaned and kept at the ranch tor handling and graining, Goblin was left on the range, NO more wrestling or boxing now, for he had no playmate, land when he tried it with Banner, rearing be­ fore him and putting up his fists, the big stud went on grazing, oblivi­ ous of his existence. Goblin played alone. He raced on the curving hills, thundered in-fig­ ure . eights, reared and shadow- boxed, put down his head and bucked — sunflshed — jack-knifed -cork-screwed — He knew them all. Three times more before his six months of nursing were Completed, Banner swept the whole band down to the ranch, for not a month passed without a blizzprd. .Goblin came to know the way so well that he tried to shoulder to the front, and only— ' 'net .,mn/'t—»-■ ——————. his lack of speed kept him from be­ing there. One day, after a heavy blizzard, he was not allowed to return to the Saddle Back. He was to be weaned. The fury of the wind was dying away and only occasionally sent up a cone of whirling snow. Ken Mc­Laughlin, warmly dressed In a blue ski suit and cap, stood in the stable corral, holding Flicka’s halter. He had been summoned home for one of his winter week-ends, to witness the weaning of Goblin. The corral was mid-leg deep in snow, churned to slush by the mill­ ing of the brood mares. For two days they had been in and out the stable doors, in and out the cor­ ral gates, free to leave when they wished, free to stay and fill them-' selves with hay and oats. Ken’s face, pale from the winter confinement and the cold, was full of peaceful love as he looked into Flicka’s eyes and stroked her fore­ lock. His thin, sensitive lips were slightly parted. Flicka’s golden coat had darkened with the cold. Running his hand down her neck under her thick blond mane, Ken felt the hair deep as fur. Her chest .was broad and strong. Her wide nostrils flared as she breathed. And her legs— Oh, why couldn’t Goblin have had those long slim legs of a runner?Flicka was with foal again. Standing there with her young master, she was paying no atten­ tion to him. She-was looking over bis head toward the Green, her ears strained forward. Now and then her whole body shook in an anguished whinny. It was in that direction that they had led her, a few minutes be­ fore, with Goblin following. They had brought her back without him. Ken patted her face and talked to her. “Don’t you care, Flicka— pretty soon you won’t mind so much —you’ll have a new baby—and it’s better for you not to be nursing him—you’ve been getting thin. I can feel your ribs under your fur coat.” Ken was tom between the desire to stay with his mare and comfort her, and go down to the Goblin. He stayed with the mare.Banner had wandered out toward the county road gate. Evidently he had had enough of domesticity.; He began to call his mares and round them up. The afternoon light was;failing and the full moon, that had been nothing but a transparent globule of mist, was turning to bright silver. When the last of the band had followed Banner out, Ken led his mare into the stable, filled her feed box with oats and left, closing the door behind him. Then he exploded into a swift run, tore down the gorge, across the Green, the color flaring into his face, his blue eyes darkening with excitement." Now the Goblin! Now his race horse! Now—at last— As he opened the gate into the colt corral his father'held up a hand and Ken moved quietly. The last fifteen minutes had been full of shocks for the Goblin. In the excitement of meeting* his rid friends and investigating this hew place, Goblin had 'not at first realized that he had been separated from his mother. Then he heard her anguished' neighing. That whirled him around and started him toward her. The five foot fence stopped him* The gate was closed. He raced around the enclosure seeking an exit. A confusion of feel­ ing stirred him. There were the colts crowding around him, Pepper, the tall blade, rearing and begging for a game. A strange intriguing smell came from the long center trough; he wanted to investigate that. But he was still angry. He didn’t know what to do. At sight of Goblin, Ken’s heart began to pound. What a change! The colt had grown all over, so that he was still shaped like a ma­ ture horse—most odd-looking. But there was no mistaking the power in him. Measuring him quickly, against the others Ken saw that he was as big as the biggest and old­est of them. In six months he had caught up. -Impelled by insatiable curiosity, Goblin approached the boy cautious­ ly, obliged to satisfy himself as to this small human being, not much taller ' than himself, and why memory rang a bell at sight of him. His muzzle strained forward. Hia body held back. He got one sniff—' and at the same' time Ken's hand moved to pat his note: The-Colt’s ears flew back—he whirled and lashed with his heels. Ken ducked, “Pretty dosel” laughed Rob. “You’ve got to be fast with that M owl” ^'Gosh! How he’s grown," mar­veled Ken. "Bigger than qny of the others, isn’t he, dad?” : “He’s a husky.” Goblin was tearing around the fence. It made wild fury in him that there was no way. out In the other corral, when - they^riifiie down from the range in a storm, the gates were always left open. They were there of their own free wilt Even when they crowded info the bam there was a different feeling. ........... He J)egan to buck. This wasn’t bucking in fun. This was protest this was pure fight. He went through his repertoire. The other colts got out of the way. and Rob and. Gua re­ treated to the fence. ____ IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY!CHOOL l-e sso n By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D.Ol The Moody Bible lnstttute of Chicago. Released by Western Newspaper Union.

THE HOME FOSTERING CHBISnAN IDEALS LESSON TEXT—Deuteronomy 6:4-9; Luke 2:51, 52; Ephesians 5:22, 25; 6:1-4.GOIDEN TEX T-Be ye kind one to an­other. tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.—Ephesians 4:32. “Juvenile delinquency” is an ex­ pression often heard in our day.. It speaks of the awful way in which our boys and girls have gone astray spiritually and morally in recent years. Fortunately, we are begin­ ning to realize that most of the blame falls on the parents. It is parental delinquency in the matter of proper rearing of the children which needs our feamest attention. The home is the right place for the fostering of Christian principles of living, but all too often even Christian people have put that whole load on the Sunday school and church. They can help, but they cannot do the job which should be done in the home. Home should be a place where:I. God’s Word Is Accepted (Deut. 6:4-9). The Bible teaches us the truth about God and that is information of the highest value and usefulness in the home. He is our God, and He is one God. There is no other God, and at the same time this in­ finite and eternal One is very close to us—our God. How precious!: The acceptance of the truth con­ cerning God draws forth our love toward Him. He is not like the heathen gods who cause only cring­ ing fear. He loves us and we love Him, with all our might (v. 5). Hiis Word of God and the truth concerning Him should be the nor­mal and natural subject of conver­ sation in the home. Any time, night or day, and any­ where, in the house or on the street, it should be Ss easy for a boy to talk to his father about God as to discuss his school work, or sports, or any other thing.Let’s make it a natural, normal, accepted thing that God and His Word are talked about in the home.II. Growth Is Expected (Luke 2: 51, 52).In the well-ordered home the child finds his place as Jesus did, as an obedient, well-mannered, co-opera­ tive member.. There, too, is the natural place for normal, well-balanced develop­ment. There must first be growth in wisdom. The mind and will must be in control, lest the physical get out of hand. TheV must develop, even as the body grows. Thus the growth of the body becomes not just an animal development, but one amenable to proper restraints, cul­ tivated and poised- for full useful­ ness. But the home fails if it does not at tite.same time give the child a chance, to grow “in favor with God and man.” The. boy Jesus contin­ued to grow in gracious personality, with both God and man as the in­ terested recipients of the fruits of His spiritual development.Every home should be a Christian home and every Christian home should be a center of normal growth for children. This should give us cultured Christian men and women for the next generation. III. Love Is Expressed (Eph. 5: 22, 25). Love is not just, a warm and ten­ der feeling hidden away in the heart. It shows in the homely de­ tails of daily life in the home. A Christian wife expresses her af­ fection for her husband by giving him his God-appointed place as head of the house. There is a graceful and voluntary submission to God’s plan for the home which makes for order and unity. Happy is the wom­ an who seeks that place and lives in it! Her life will be blessed! A Christian husband will learn to control that natural masculine ten­ dency to dominate. He will study the gentle art of courtesy and kind­ ly affection. He will love his wife as Christ loved the Church, and that means a willingness to both live and die for b lip 1 : ChriStlSfl^ rYeally should show forth ,gt^ts^irery best in' the home but, alas, so ,often just the contrary is Irife1Pu9 Ii-Sf 3Us get that thing straightened'but and keep it right! IV. Rights Are Respected (Eph. 61-4). Mutual devotion between husband and wife, and mutual trust between parents and children—there we have the basis of a' real God-honoring borne. We must give attention to the matter of a fair and full recognition of the fights'of'Others. Theparent who rides roughshod over the wills of his children need not profess to be a true follower of Christ. Like­ wise, children who are disobedient and insolent to their.parents have no real testimony for Christ. This business of being a Chris­tian is real. It calls for right living everywhere, and that must begin at home. In the home the parent and child must both learn and live the high standards of Christ.

Frilly sand­ wiches can be made by spreading thinly sliced bread with mayon­ naise, seasoning the lettnce and roll­ ing up the bread. Lunch is often one of the most neglected meals of the day because the whole family is not at home to eat it. Then, too, many homemak­ ers feel they just don’t want to both­ er fixing something palatable and attractive. But, let’s look at it this way. Lunch, according to nutritionists, should contain at least one-third to one-half the day’s calories, and the proper balance of proteins, carbo­hydrates, vita­ mins and miner­ als. This doesn’t mean that you have to spend a lot of time prepar­ ing this noon-day snack, because, chances are, there are plenty of things in the refrigerator, ready to be made into satisfying, nourishing lunches. Now that food rationing has eased, it might be a good idea to invite friends, in for a quick lunch; or, bet­ ter still, have a plan whereby you invite four to six people over for noon-time, and then have everyone take turns having each other to luncheon. It’s a neighborly way, and you will be sure to get into bet­ ter luncheon habits this way. Here is a colorful salad plate that makes a quick and easy lunch. It looks pretty, too, on gay, informal plates. Stuffed Tomato Salad Plate. (Serves 6) 6 large tomatoes Ya pound cottage cheese 1 cnp chopped cucumber 3 tablespoons real mayonnaise ParsleyScallions Lettnce rolls Section tomatogs to within % inch from bottom. Mix cottage cheese, cucumber and real mayonnaise. Fill tomatoes. Serve with scallions and lettuce rolls. The rolls are made by spreading thinly sliced white bread with mayonnaise and then placing a lettuce leaf on each slice. Sprinkle this with salt and pepper. Roll up and fasten with a toothpick. Occasionally we all have some leftover rice in the refrigerator, pos­ sibly after a chop suey dinner the night before. What about crispy, golden brown rice cakes for lunch, served with apricot jam or marmalade, and some spinach made delectable with a cream sauce. There you have nourishment plus in addition to a colorful and contrasting menu. Rice Cakes. (Serves 6) 2 cups-cooked rice (h cup un- . cooked) 1 beaten egg 2 tablespoons flour BUDOET Wfs^tolhe I muni Lynn Says Hints for the Home: Sugarbags make good dishcloths. Cut, hem and launder before using.A dishwashing apron is easy to make out of oil cloth. Cut to pat­ tern, bind the edges and you will have a water-resistant apron. Old pillow cases are excellent for protecting the tops of clothes while they hang in the closet. Use this tip for putting away out-of­ season clothes. Odd bits of linoleum make nice covers for kitchen or laundry ta­ ble and may even be used as shelf covering. Old socks are excellent for ap­plying wax to furniture; they may be used for cleaning silver­ ware, too. ■ If you are crowded for space, build a blanket bin across the narrow end of a haU, underneath the windows. This is good to use in storing dofhes, too. Fold the totter in clean tissue paper to prevent wrinkling.

Speed Up Dheharge With the rate of discharges froa the armed forces soon expected t exceed 500,000 per month, several organizations, among them the American Red Cross, are taking steps to expand services to the'vet­ erans to make easier the path from uniform to civilian clothes. The latest move of the Red Cross is the enlargement of the field di­ rectors’ staffs in hospitals and the installation of full-time paid field di­rectors in veterans administration hospitals to work with Red Cross volunteers now serving in these hos­pitals. Many veterans In their haste to get home often pass up the service available at hospitals and separation centers and often regret their haste, for the army and navy and other organizations have provided trained personnel to inform the veteran of all his rights, to help him plan his future and to advise him in many fields. He should take advantage of these facilities. Question* and Answers Q. What members of an army man’s family are eligible for , medical care? Mrs. L C., Downsville, La. A. The war department says that the wife and children are normally eligible for medical care, but if a mother, father, or minor sisters or brothers are living within the sol­dier’s immediate household and are dependent upon him for support they too may be eligible for medical care. Q. My son was killed In action and I sent in a claim for a pen­ sion several months ago and haven’t heard yet. I am sick and not able to work and I need some help. What can I do? Mother, Dalton, Ga. A. If your son was unmarried and you were his beneficiary and de­ pendent upon him you are entitled to compensation. U he was married, his widow is entitled to the pension. Suggest that you write again to the Regional Office of the Veterans Ad­ ministration at Atlanta, Ga., and ex­ plain your case. Sometimes action is slow, but if you are entitled to a pension it will be retroactive from the time ypu made application. Q.—My son enlisted in the air corps in June, 1944. He was called In January, 1945, and passed all the exams at the induction center. When he received all his "shots” he was sent to a hospital and he was givqn an honorable discharge March 8,1945, due to his heart. Is he eligi­ble for G.I. benefits? A--If the injury or ailment of your son- was received or aggravated by his service, he is eligible for G.I. benefits. You may determine this by having him apply for a certifi­ cate of eligibility. Generally speak­ ing a person must have served in the armed forces at least 90 days in order to qualify for benefits under the G.I. Bill. Q. As I understand it, all World War H veterans who have been honorably discharged from the services are to receive a bo­ nus or payment of 51,040. They are to receive this in $20 a week payments or $520 a year. As I am writing this I am serving time in prison, but I was given a medical discharge from the service In 1942. Will veterans who are serving time in Sny in­ stitution receive this money if they were honorably discharged from the service? No, 18850, Illinois State Penitentiary, Me­ nard, HI. A. You have been misinformed, since no veterans receive a bonus. They do receive mustering-out pay up to $300 and if they do not obtain employment after applying to the United States Employment Service they may receive unemployment compensation up to $20 per week for a maximum of 52 weeks. If you received a medical discharge, it may be possible that you are en­ titled to draw service connected dis­ ability payments. Suggest you take the matter up with your prison phy­ sician for application to the nearest regional office of the Veterans Ad­ministration. If you have an honor­ able discharge, the fact that you are in prison will not make any dif­ ference In obtaining any compensa­tion to which you are entitled. Q. Is a veteran’s dependent child, living separately, entitled to a part iff Ms mustering-out pay? B. S., Geneva, Ala. A. Mustering-out pay is given di­ rectly to the honorably discharged veteran, $100 at time of discharge, if he has served less than 60 days; $100 In 30 days if he has served 00 days and no foreign service, and an additional $100 in 60 days if he has had foreign service, a total of $300. Q.—Can yon tell me what fuel is used to power Uie new Jet-propelled P-30 caUed the "Shooting Star”? A.—Kerosene.

Jttauti Waiting Contest Hard as it may be to get .a die<3-: In - the - wool bureaucrat thinking about winter problems in the sum-, mer time, unless something unusual] happens, cold weather will come, again. One of these days a school bell will ring, a boy will come down the street bouncing a football and; after that it won’t be long. More­ over winter calls for a lot of things that are scarce now. Let’s take shoes as a down-to- earth illustration. Which Is better for keeping a boy’s feet oS the frosty ground, a 1942 price ceiling or a pair of good heavy brogues with wool socks in them? That’s the problem before the American peo­ ple, with school bells only a few days away. Getting into production on civilian goods is- what the OPA is currently bungling. r' Hold That Price The OPAV war job was to keep prices of needful things from shy- rocketing — a noble work requiring some stifi rules. But today, with the war won and war business slack, OPA is still making rules. One of them says: ManiSacturers may make things for civilians provided they sell at 1942 prices. There’s the rub, for factory owners now ready to start reconverting, making jobs safe for their employees. The 1942 price rule stops them; nothing else. Workers want their jobs to last. Most civilians, have saved some money and want to buy new things. Industry is anxious to serve them but very few factories can operate at 1942 prices. Mate­ rials cost more now and labor costs more also. There is only one thing a manufacturer can do, namely, beg OPA for special permission to price- UP and go to work. Mail Bags Full The OPA, if you remember, is fa­ mous for leaving no stone unturned, and all that sort of thing. It is ru­ mored that some men in the bureau have their own private opinions about business people anyhow. Be­ fore they grant any firm special leaye to change a price, they in­ vestigate. That’s all right, but appli­ cations to reconvert are coming in last, more than 500 a day. The bureau will never wind up its red tape in time. The only possi­ble way out of trouble is to make a reasonable rule for all industry to follow, let whistles blow at 6:00 a. m. and ask questions later. Will they do it? Who knows? Employees and customers would probably cheer loudly for any employer who kept his payroll alive and said “ Ph-f-v-v-ut” to the OPA, but its dangerous. Formula for Panic Most business men are conserva­tive. They are likely to wait exact­ ly aslong as the OPA says wait. Un­ able to do business on 1942 prices, they may pull fires from under their boilers and lay off the crew. Then the waiting contest starts. Bureaus will wait on investigations; employ­ers will wait on bureaus; workers will wait on employers and you and I will wait for everything. Idle workers in the soup-line; farmers without markets let crops rot in the field.' An ugly picture. The way to avoid it is to let indus­try convert, sell its products to peo­ ple with money and pay the men who work. Inflation can be pre­ vented without starting a panic, if OPA will adopt a workable rule soon enough. But bureaus are usually more interested in rules than in icasons—warts on the nose of prog­ress; bunions on the toe of time.

Jtktnsti Freedom Individual liberty is one of the teachings of Jesus. It goes hand-in- hand with personal responsibility. How can a man be held responsible for his acts unless he is free to de­ termine how he shall act? The un­ derstanding that certain rights are everybody’s rights, and that no man can rightly deprive another man of them, is an Idea for which the world iffv indebted to Christianity. Compulsion in religion is older than history. Every nation’s lore is colored with tales of forced worship. In fact, the history of Christianity is marred with a shameful record of coercion. Just the same, obedi­ence to Christ is voluntary or It is not obedience at all, and (being an every-day thing) CSiristiamty lives and grows best in surroundings of personal liberty. A Moral Duty * Opposing dictatorship, resisting infringement by a few upon the lib­ erties of many, is a reverent act of fidelity to the source of all freedom. No government is perfect; no eco­ nomic system is perfect. Por that matter, no church is perfect. AU are subject, more or less, to lead­ ership by imperfect people. Never­theless some principles are right and worthy of vigorous defense. Harry Emerson Fosdick said, “One of the great hours in history struck when mankind ran into the idea that all the people should unite in making laws, which then all the people should obey. Behind our pitifully fallible experiments with representative government stands the Ideal, worth everything our fa­ thers gave for it and aQ that we can give—the democratic state."Godless Laws One-man governments traditional­ly become jealous of their subjects’ loyalty to God; covetous too, per­ haps, of their free-will offerings, large or small. Rarely do totali­ tarian states legin at the church when they start cutting off people’s liberties. They get around to it in the long-run, however. There are about enough exceptions on record to prove the rule. Dictators usually start their tres­passes on freedom by presuming to say who shall engage in trade. It is the natural way to commence. Never do they find a large class in commercial pursuits, so they can begin grabbing power without antag­onizing a majority. The next big strategy is to dominate the news. By this method a dictator can make his people think what he pleases. Step at a Time With buying and selling pinched under government’s heel, one emer­ gency follows another, accidentally or by design; either way serves the purpose. Consumers, the class most hurt by government in business, nev­er learn the truth if press and radio are under control. Selfish rulers snatch away comforts and dole out confusion and suspicion, the chains of serfdom.Traditionally tyrants work this way; it has happened all along through history. After business is confiscated and the news agencies seized, the people are poisoned with malice, and malice destroys living souls. Americans who value their re­ ligious liberty have no choice but to defend representative government, free enterprise, free speech and free press. They can fight on the front line and win, or wait to fight in the last trench and lose* ONE SIEP WONT QETVOUimK U O m AD Wm I fcsswi r— Mart D A V I E B R I C K C O M P A N Y DEALERS IN BRICK and SAND W O O D a n d C O A L Day Phone 194 • Night Phone 119 Uocksville, N.

N e w M a y ta g W a sh er Addition of an automatic type washer, an automatic clothes drier, both gas and electric, a gas range and an electric firozeu food locker to the Maytag line of household appliances was revealed to C. J. Angell, Maytag dealer, lecated at Mocksville, in a letter received to­ day from President Fred May­ tag n. The announcement followed a series of conferences ot Maytag branch managers and distributors held at the home office in New­ ton at which the new products were previewed. They will be ad­ ded to .the line of conventional type washers and ironers produc­ ed by the 50-year old company, which manufactured and sold more than 4,000,000 washers be­ fore converting to war production in 1942. The‘Maytag Company recently purchased a minority interest in the Globe-American Corporation of Kokomo, Indiana, which will produce Dutch Oven gas ranges exclusively for Maytag. Fred May­ tag II, and Maytag VicePresidents George Umbreit and Roy A» Bradt have been elected to die Globe- American board of directors. No date has been announced as to when the new products will be made available to the public, al­ though President Maytag express­ ed an opinion that the gas range and the frozen food locker would be on the market about the first of the year. No date has been re­ vealed when the automatic wash­ ers and driers will be ready for distribution. Samples of postwar models of Maytag conventional type washers have just been released to each of the more than 7,000 dealers re­ presenting the company through­ out the United States, and the ar­ rival of the local display model is expected soon. An immediate start was made after V-J day on reconversion and assembled ma­ chines were stock-piled until e- nough had accumulated for simul­ taneous shipment to all dealers. W A T ?

H isto r y o f S m ith G ro v e C h n rch t C am p g ro u n d Smith Grove Church is an out growth of the old Whitaker church, one of the 6rst in this section of North Carolina, Whitaker was built as earlv as 1780 on the east side of Dutchmati’s Creek. It up the creek from Old Brown’s Mill, At this time, 1945, the old grave­ yard is In the forks of the Farm ington and Smith Grove roads. The church was for a long time forgot ten and the graveyard received lit­ tle or no attention until the W.P. A. of recent vears cleaned this up and put a rock wall around it. Bishop Asbury preached there in 1794 and again in 1799 . The Whi­ taker site, not being a favorable one gave away to a better site at Smith Grove. The selection of this site was a result of a dream by the Reverend Moses Brock, na ative of this coun­ ty While on a visit here, he dreamed of a beautiful grove ir wbich was being conducted a glo­ rious camp meeting. He said he wanted to realize the object of his dream and for that reason he sent out a triend to f nd such a grove as had been presented to him in his dream. The man returned without finding the desired spot, but Mr. Brock went with him and in a fur­ ther search for such a place they found the beautiful elevated spot where the camp ground was later erected and closely adjacent to which Smith Grove Church was to be later built. Brock, on comine to this place and looking over the site said, ‘‘This is the place and here we will have the camp meet­ ings.” Arthur Smith gave t^e land. The central arbor for servi ces, and the tents for temporary living quarters were built, and so Moses Brock's dieam was ealized. The first meeting was held about 1826 with Peter Doub as the pre siding elder There were between 150 and 200 tents. The crowd wa- immense It wan a meeting of great power. Many Christians were en­ couraged and strengthened and a- bout 150 sinners converted. Camp meetings were kept up for many years. The last one was held in 1886 with Rev. W. C. Wilson as preacher In charge. Many of the old members of the church in this county today were converted in this beautiful grove As an outgrowth of the camp meetings. Smith Grove church was started The congregation was in­ terested in more than a camp meet­ ing for the summer months. They wanted a year-around meeting place The present church was built in 1877 at a cost of about $1200 The use of the catno grounds and the church over-lapped for a few years and for several years after the camp meetings were dispensed with, but tho tents remained. The large ar bor was sold at auction and bought by a neighbor, W. F. Williams, who converted it Into a barn. A circuit was developed with Smith Grove as the center. A par. sonage was built aud was occupied as such until Farmington was made the center. The parson ge is now occupied by F. A Naylor and fatn Uy. They purchased this more than fifty years ago wben the center for the circuit changed to Farmington The Smith Grove Academyis an older institution than the church proper and church services were held in this before the church was built. When the consolidation of schools came along this building ceased to be used for school pur poses and was bought by the church and moved across the higb- wav and made into Sunday school rooms. A few years ago at one of these reunions, Mr. and Mrs, Dan Haith cox were present. She was the former Julia Heckard They were the first couple to be married in this church, on Iuly 20 . 1881. The second couole to be married was George W. Sbeek and CatuiIIa Kim­ brough who were united in mar­ riage here on Sept. 22, 1881. Both couples reared large families and have childten and many grand­ children in this section of the state, but both couples have passed to their reward, Mr. Geo. Sbeek be Ing the Grst to pass away At the last home-coming, Mr. and Mrs Haithcoz and Mrs Sheek were all present. Miss Duke Sbeek, grand daughter of Mrs. Sheek, has been a faithful employee of The Davie Record for more than 25 years.

Dwight Eisenhower, a real diplomat, has been making progress toward friendship with the Russians, but got a setback the other day.U. S. officials entering Eisenhow­ er’s office found him despondent. He was holding a copy of Time mag­ azine.“Look at that,” he said, "six weeks’ work gone.”Eisenhower pointed to a picture of a female entertainer in a Berlin night club standing on her head, legs apart, holding a picture of Stalin between them. Time had re­ produced the picture.“And just as I was making some progress with Marshal Zhukov,” Eisenhower mourned. "First he would scarcely see me. But re­ cently we have become pretty good friends. When I go into his office he says, ‘Here’s to Ike.’ ”Eisenhower went on to tell how Zhukov was blazing mad over the Time magazine picture. He had just come from seeing the Russian com­ mander who had demanded: “What are yon going to do about this?”“Nothing,” replied Eisenhow­ er. “What! Tou let the American press make mockery of the mar­ shal?” exclaimed Zhukov. “That’s what we fought the war for—the right to criticize, the right for people to say what they please,” said Eisenhower. Eisenhower went on to explain to the Russian that because one news­ paper or magazine published a pic­ ture of Stalin, it did not reflect the sentiment of either the Amer­ ican government or the American people, and that the American gov­ ernment scrupulously refrained from censoring the press on matters of this kind. However, the Russians continue to be sensitive. It is hard for them to understand the difference between e regulated press as in the Soviet and a free press as in the U. S. A. * * * NEW SUPREME COURT JUSTICE President Truman really let his hair down with Senator Burton when he called him in last week to tell him he was being nominated to the Supreme court. Catching Burton just before the Ohio senator was about to leave for Cincinnati, Truman told him that he had actually promised the Su­ preme court job to another man, Robert Patterson, now secretary of war, but changed his mind. “Harold,” said Truman at the start of the interview, “I’ve made up my mind to appoint you to the' Supreme court."You were always my first choice,” Truman continued, “but I had some vacillations. I considered appointing Phillips of Denver, Park­ er of North Carolina and Patterson. “Finally I decided to appoint Pat­terson and told him I was going to appoint him.” Truman then explained that It was better to leave Patterson in the war department to replace Stimson as secretary of war. “One of the things that disturbed me about your appointment,” Tru­ man continued, “was the probable claim that I might be playing poli­tics in order to get a Democratic senator from Ohio.” (Truman had in mind the fact that Governor Lausche of Ohio, a Democrat, now can appoint a Democratic senator to replace Burton, a Republican.) “So I talked it over with Alben Barkley,” Truman explained, “and he advised that if I was convinced you were the right man, I should appoint you and let political conse­ quences go hang.” Note—Truman had picked up Senator Barkley at Paducah, Ky., the evening before and flown him back to Washington in his special plane, at which time they had conferred regarding the Burton appointment. Tru­ man, incidentally, seems to be leaning more and more on sage, experienced Barkley for advice. • * • CAPITAL CHAFF 0 . President Truman still keeps up his rapid-fire early-morning appoint­ment pace, sees as many as 15 visi­ tors before lunch.

TOO much has already been writ­ ten about the “T.” And yet it is surprising the number of sidun- ers who keep writing in to ask just what the “T” is and how it works. We’ll try, with no promise of suc­ cess, to make it simple—for 016 last time. _.I* The “T” doesn’t denianfl old-fashioned blocking or hard body pressure. It depends more on speed and deception. 2. It needs a hard-hitting full­ back who can split an opened line. .3. It needs a fast-moving back who can circle a massed or tightened line.4. It demands a good passer who can work with deception and smooth ball-handling.These latter three qualities put heavy pressure on any defense. The greatest pro “T” I ever saw operate Wcis the old Bear brigade with Luck- man, Standlee, Galr lernau and McAfee, if my memory isn’t too fuzzy. They hit you every known way.The greatest col­ lege “T” I ever saw at work was Notre Dame’s 1943 outfit OranflaiiaKice w ithBerteni, Creighton Miller, Kelly and two or i three good fullbacks. They fell far j away when Bertelli left, who was j not only a great passer but the ’ smoothest and trickiest ball-handier I’ve seen around. Ask Rip Miller, Captain Johnny Whelchel of Navy or Bill Alexander of Georgia Tech. It’s true that the old Bears and Notre Dame’s 1943 squad would have ,! been hard to handle under any sys- tem. Material makes the system more than any system ever made material. And material has made more coaches than any coaches ever made material.The main answer to football suc­ cess is your playing strength—the forward wall and the backfield— your man power. And don’t ever let anyone tell you a different story. Football coaches have done great jobs. Their general average is the highest in sport. But the best still need good football players to have winning teams. After all, they can’t rush out on the field and do their own pass­ing, running, blocking and tackling. * * * Sports Fans’ Squawks Sports fans who move up Into the 50 or 60-million class, ranging from ages between 10 and 80 years, are certainly entitled to their beliefs, their squawks, their praise and their blame. For, after all, they are the big part of sport, the major part by at least I 90 per cent. They pay all the ex- ' penses, all the salaries. They make both amateur and pro sports pos- ’ sible. And in too many cases they only get shoddy treatment and take the big shove around by both ama- ! teur and professional promoters. I - They are taken for granted. They • are rarely given any consideration from baseball, football, racing, box- . ing, golf or other sporting directors. They are usually the goats, who ; have grown accustomed to taking the worst of It. Their hardihood and j their capacity for punishment is the I most amazing feature of sport. They are too often packed in after I the manner of human sardines at I race tracks and other sporting cen- | ters. They are too often over- ; charged. I It has been said there is no law ■ that forces them to take this beating. This is true. But they happen to ! love their games, whether it is box- ; ing, baseball, football, racing, golf I or something else. I . They are astonished at little cour- ! tesies they are so seldom shown any­ where or any time by the hired peo­ ple who live off their main outlet for recreation and entertainment. They are really ah amazing breed. They take it on the chin and on the shin, back of each ear, in the stom- 1 ach and also in the pocketbook. Courses Too Tough Take golf, for example. It has always been my belief that any golf course should be trapped only for the star player. Put all trouble out beyond the 200 yard mark which the average player can’t reach. The duffer or average player has enough trouble trying to hit the ball or get his bogeys. Why should he pay uncounted millions to make his golfing life more miserable? We haVe built too many golf courses against the skill of the pros and the crack amateurs who, aft­ er all, give most pf their life to golf —and who pay nothing in return. Who cares whether a pro shoot* a 63 or a 58? Why build courses to keep him from breaking par on courses which the average golfer can’t handle in a 95? The Nelsons and the other par- breaking stars are a breed apart. Let them go around in even 3’s. Who cares? But why keep punishing the 98 per cent who pay all the freight?Golf is our greatest playing game for everyone. It is a friendly and a companionable game, demanding its share of psychology, philosophy, sportsmanship and nerve control— as well as physical skill.

FeATVOgStM I THE STORT THUS FAR: FlickafS colt, long overdue, Is born on the Goose Bar ranch, Ugb In the Rockies, its 12-year- Old owner, Ken McLaughlin, Is startled to see that It is white, and so a throw* tiacK to the Albino, a wild stallion that Is the grandsire of Fllcka. The colt Is iUmed Thunderhead, bnt Is commonly lmown as the Goblin. Ken reveals that Its sire Is Appalachian, a black racing situd owned by Charles Sargent, million­ aire owner of a neighboring ranch. Gob­lin grows qulckly^after being put on Hio range, and soon .overtakes Hie older colts In development-and size. He becomes a sort of mascot to Banner, following Hie Mg stallion, and learning all he can. She other colts, treat him ofBsbly. CHAPTER VIII “Yiminy Crickets!” exclaimed Gus. “Luk at dot colt buck!”The Goblin tied himself in a knot, his nose and four hoofs bunched; twisted and bounced stiff-legged three fee.t off the ground.It’s the bronc in him,” said Rob •disgustedly, “he’ll never make a rate horse unless he gets over that.” pace horse! The word went through Ken like a flame. Did his father really, believe, then, as he hiinself believed? Gus walked along the trough pour­ ing oats from a bucket. The other colts jammed around him, scrim­ maging with each other, burying their noses in the trough.Rob's harsh voice rose, repri­ manding them. He liked good man­ ners in his horses. “Here, you fel­lows! Cut that out!” At his voice Goblin stopped buck­ ing, looked around, shook himself, then, realizing that he was missing something, rushed to the trough. He forced himself through the crowd, biting and kicking, stuck his nose in and took a mouthful of the oats. Then he whirled away to the fence and stood there, mouthing the oats, thinking it all over.That night, across the vast ex­ panse of the snows, flattened under the bright moonlight, Ken rode Flicka bareback up the Saddle Back and down the length of it, looking for the brood mares. He went very slowly, to make it last longer. He had played a trick on his father. : He had kept Flicka In the stable instead of sending her with Banner just so that he could ride her out alone that night and ski back. It hadn’t fooled Rob. He had looked'at his son hard until Ken had to drop his eyes, but after all he had said he coidd go. Far down the ridge Ken found the mares, inky black shadows against thd whiteness. Banner^came sweeping out to get Flicka. Ken dropped his skis to the ground, dismounted and removed the bridle. .;It took 'Goblin only one night to learn that ! something of the utmost importance had come into his life. Oats, i Here was an experience that touched hifs very soul. What inde­ pendence!i No need to go following and begging behind his mother! No need to phtv and scrape at the snow for a few mouthfuls of dried grass! Here was’ belly-filling heat and strength iand deliciousness spread down the/Jong center trough in the corral; once last night, and now again in Ithe morning. What a strange, foreign, altogether seduc­tive tastfe! He mouthed and crunched it In delight, and if any other colt jostled him he was quick and vicioiis with his teeth. A loop Of rope fell softly and sur­ prisingly oyer his head, drew taught and pulled) at him. He reacted like a bomb exploding. The boys( had halter-broken him in the fall, blit since then the pride and kingliness of the mountains and the freedom of the wind, and the rhythm of the plains, and the strength of the storms’had poured into him. His spirit was; enlarged and annealed. Not for him to be tamely tied and led about!f The fight was on. Two hours later,' sweating, hat- less, and .nursing one hand which had been bruised by a twist of the rope, Rob said, "I guess he’s licked. We’ll leave him to think it over. Luclqr to have got through that with­ out killing him. God! What power!” They were all in the corral, Rob and Nell, Gus and Ken. . The Gob­ lin, worn out at last, successfully haltered blit now freed from the snubbing post and the tie rope, was panting, shaking his head to free it of the halter and the trailing rope. Suddenly he reared, pawing at the side of his face. -■*= “Ah!” It was a short, explosive cry from Rob. . , The colt had thrust his foreieg through the cheek strap of the hal­ ter and it:was caught so that be could not withdraw it. Ken started to run to him. “Stand still,” ordered Rob. “If he blows up now and falls over he’ll break that leg.”Ken groaned. The colt; standing on three legs, shuddered and grunted. “Plenty of sense,” muttered Rob. “Look at . him. He’s thinking. He knows he’s: got to be helped.” The terror of the colt showed only in his eyes. He looked at Rob, at Gus, at Nell and at Ken. Then, carefully, On three legs, he began to cross the corral, going toward NelL Each plunge of his body jerked his head down. His foreleg flapped help­ lessly close to Jhis eye.. . “Come boy—come Goblin—I’ll fix it for you-—” Neil’s voice was en­ couraging. Rob and Ken held their breath. Reaching her, the colt halted, bent his head and endured it, trembling, while Nell took his foreleg in her hand. She was obliged to unstrap the halter. When the colt felt the sudden release and his leg touched solid ground, he stood heaving, froth dripping from his mouth. Nell put her hands on both sides of his head. As once before, he leaned against her, his face hidden, resting and comforted.“We'll go,” said Rob to Ken. “She’ll do the rest. He’s accepted her.” For an hour Nell played with the colt. She put his. halter on and off. She rubbed liim dry with a sack. AU that he had learned be­ fore came back to him now. He gave her his trust, he ate from her hands, he looked into her eyes. She was Goodness. Like the oats. Like shelter. Like warmth. She was for him. She was his mother. At supper, before they drove Ken back to school, Ken asked his father, “Do you think he’U ever be taU?” y v w fcV __ Something called to the Goblin. “I fancy so. That Albino must have been over sixteen hands—a whale of a horse. And Goblin throws back to him. He’U probably develop in the same way. Albino might have started with short legs too.”“WeU then—if he grows taU, may­ be he can be a racer after aU.”Rob bent his stem blue gaze on his smaU son. “Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched.” Ken dropped his eyes. “No, sir.” • * Early in May came the last big snowstorm, falling on the barren brown earth. In that wrapping of snow there must have been a magi­cal, mothering heat, for when the sun peeled it off, the world was green. For the colts, the' greengrass meant that school was over. They were freed of their nursemaid and curry combs and halters and tie ropes and were put out on the Sad­dle Back again, and now they were the yearlings, and the band of year­lings of the. summer before were the two-year-olds. Banner and his brood mares were no longer on the upland. On April first Rob had put them' in the fenced meadow below Castle Rock. Here was less exposure for- the heavy mares and any early foals that might be dropped. Late spring storms were dangerous to the new-born. Besides, with breeding season approaching, Banner would have his . eye out for new mares, and up on Saddle Back there were young mares, his daugh­ters, who, with the spring, would be coming in heat. The stallion, even from five mUes away—if he was not under fence—would seek them, out and force them, into his band. He might fight with and kill some of the young stalUons. Goblin tasted his first greengrass. Babyhood was over. He lJhad no mother, needed none. He needed hot even a trough of oats and the care of men. The whole world under his feet was delicious to eat and his for the taking. And for the first time in his life he was really and com­ pletely free—not even a piebald Granny to demand obedience of him. There is no such speed on the range as the speed of the yearlings running like deer on the crests and ridges; no such wild, irresponsible, prankish fun, such flinging of small bodies across ravines, such races on the straightaways, such tossing of heads, such frisking of heels. A yearling has little weight to carry. He is all long, piston-like legs, ragged hair, and wide, nervous eyes. He learns to jump all natural obstacles, he learns the free gallop down the steep mountainside; learns to pick bis way at top speed over stony ground studded with shrubs and badger holes. He is always out-' doing himself, surmounting difficul­ ties he never met before. For GobUn there was more than fun and freedom galloping over the greengrass on the Saddle Back. With the first breath he drew, standing alone on a rise of ground looking south, a new personality entered into him, and it was so keen an excite­ment that his body tingled. It filled him to bursting with heat and pow­ er and fierceness. It drove him. He began investigating the range. The Goblin no longer scrabbled. His legs stretched out with a long powerful clutch. The pasterns bounced him a little at each step, so that he went as if on springs. He trotted tireless­ ly the length of the Saddle Back.Goblin climbed the peaks to stand as Banner had so often stood, his nostrils tremulous for every scent that came, his ears so alertly pricked that they caught sounds from miles away. Facing the ranch, as Banner was wont to do, the same quivering ran through Goblin at the sight and the scent of it. It was Nell. The re­ membrance of her hands touching him, gently untangling the strap from his foreleg, quieting him with her voice—then, when it was all over, the way he had rested, his face hidden against her, shutting out the confusion and fear; the way her being there, holding him, had, for the moment, ended all his striv­ing and violence. Nell and the oats. Nell and the oats and the ranch and the hay mangers where he had found shel­ter and food in the winter storms. His heart had been won—half his heart. The other half—! His quivering ceased. He turned away and searched the plains and the high mountains to the south. His nojstrils flared, tremulous for wind- messages from Colorado, from the jagged peaks of the Buckhom Hills, from the high plateaus that lay be­ yond them. He faced the ranch and immedi­ately the trembling began. A long cry reached him, faint with the dis­ tance. Just Rob shouting to Gus— then a dog barking—But the sounds went shuddering through him, mak­ ing him plunge and prance as if about to rush down the hill.Then with a grunt and sudden twist of his body he turned again. The air today was so crystal dear that the Buckhorn Hills, etching their fantastic outlines against the deep blue of the sky, displayed a variety of rugged detail. The soft breeze came, sweet and wild and perfumed, and strange—It was all strange and incompre­ hensible—the fierce desire within him to leave the ranch that he loved and seek out those far and un­ known places. But it happens some­ times, even to human beings, that they are propelled in the direction of their destiny without conscious understanding of what is happening. Something called to the Goblin. He answered with a loud neigh, and flung himself down the slope. Level­ing off, he fell into his long springing trot, his head high, his nose pointing up, taking the way toward the open country and the Buckhorn Hills. Once the yearlings were out on grass, there was no regular inspec­tion Of them during the summer. If anyone chanced to be riding on the Saddle Back a report would be brought home as to their condition and growth, any changes of coloring or appearance, whether the band was split, or whether it had dis­ appeared altogether — which would mean that they were feasting in one of the little ravines of the mountain­side and that the next day would see them out in the open again. But it happened that the very day after Goblin’s departure, die boys came home from schooL The first thing they did was to fling them­ selves on horseback and ride out to see the yearlings—the Goblin id particular—and after a thorough aft­ ernoon’s search, returned and re­ported him missing. Everyone hunted for him. Rob drove the car to the neighboring ranches and made inquiries. He posted a notice at die Post Office. The ranch -itself was combed from end to end, for it was possible that the Goblin, with a precocious and unseemly interest in mares, might have joined one of the older bands. But at the end of a week, Rob gave up, and the work of the ranch went on as usual. He said, shortly, that the colt would turn up again. He had run away—he would come back. Horses always did. Once oriented, they returned to the place of their birth. Ken was stupefied with grief. All winter long he had been thinking 0f the Goblin, of being with him, of be­ ginning his training. With the money be had been able to save from his allowance, he had bought a stop watch before he left Laramie. His fingers found it almost unconscious­ ly—smooth and round and cool there in the litde pocket iff his pants be­neath his belt. To touch it even had been exciting— as full of promise as a dinner bed. Now it was Iite a dead thing—cold and heavy. When he went to bed at night he invented fantasies of what might have happened to the colt The earth might have given way beneath his feet as he leaped a ravine,—and then a fall, a broken leg—lying there dying—dead by now, and the coyotes and crawling things'eating him. A clump of shrubs could have hidden the corpse so easily—and how many thousands of such shrubs there were on the ranch! That had happened to Dixie, a year ago. They had found the skeleton six months Iater1 —S' (TO BE CONTINUED^ IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S U N D A Y ICHOOL L esso n By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D.D.Ot The Moody Bible Institute ot Chicago.

MAKING THE HOME CHRISTIAN LESSON TEXT—Luke 10:38-42; I Corin­ thians 13:4-13.GOLDEN TEXT—Love suffereth long, end Ie kind.—I Corinthians 13:4. Things do not just happen. It takes praying and planning and real ef­fort to accomplish a worth-while purpose. We are thinking these weeks of the home as a Christian center of influence. We trust that many are asking in their hearts, “What can I do to make my home really Christian?”The answer is clear. A home will be Christian when those in it are Christian and put their Christianity into daily practice. First, you must be sure of your own salvation and that of the members of your house­ hold. Then you can proceed to put the principles of godliness to work. Our lesson presents the believing home as one that is well-balanced. There is both: I.' Work and Worship (Luke 10: 38-42). No home can be a place of com­ fort and pleasant fellowship without much work. A disorderly, dirty or run-down house is a disgrace and a discouragement to all that is finest in the relations of those’who live in it. Home need not be a mansion. It does not have to be richly furnished, but it does need to be clean and orderly. Meals must be made. Cleaning must be done. So far Martha was right, but she went too far. She let the labor of the house­hold hinder her from what she so deeply needed — fellowship, not only with her family but with the Lord.Now, notice that Mary had not shirked her duty to share the work. Observe the word “also” in verse 39. She had worked, but she also sat at Jesus’ feet. She knew when it was time to call a halt to labor and make the most of good comradeship. Blessed wisdom! Would that many burdened housewives would learn of Mary! Jesus made it clear that life in the home is to strike a proper bal­ ance between work and worship. If you do not know where to make the division in your home, err on the side of worship. Give that more time than it should have rather than less. Alas, is it not true that in most homes, even in Christian homes, worship is almost, if not entirely, forgotten! Something should be done about that. Will you do it in your home? H. Love and Longsuffering (I Cor. 13:4-7). We are apt to think of love as the warm feeling of interest and emo­ tion which suffuses one’s nature in moments of special pleasantness or of intimate fellowship. But life is not made up of a succession of pleasant incidents, of sunny after­ noons and moonlit evenings. ' Life is real; it is earnest, and often it is drab and irritating. What about such times? Can love meet them? Yes, for love knows how to be longsuffering. But someone may ask, Does love really work, or is this just a fine- sounding but obsolete theory? It works! Think of the things in life which irritate and depress us. Then put opposite them the qualities of Chris­ tian love as given in verses 4 to 7, and you will agree that what this world needs most of all is love. Remember that talking about love, or reading about it, or studying it in the Sunday school will not make it effective. We must put it into prac­ tice. Why not start now? You will be surprised at the results.m. Promise and Perfection (w. 8-13). Christianity has a hope, and that is not just a vague wishing that something might come to pass; it is a sure hope. In Christ all the rich promise of prophecy, of faith, of hope will come to pass. The Christian home is the place to teach boys and girls to believe with assurance that He who has begun a good work in us “will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ” (Phil. 1:6). We who see only dimly shall one day see our Lord face to face, and love shall abide through all eternity. Many gifts are only temporary in their usefulness; in fact, almost ev­ erything that man makes or does (apart from his service for God) is transient. Even as vital a matter as prophecy shall one day find its end in fulfillment. Hope shall eventually find, its longing expectation satis­ fied. Faith will be justified in seeing what it has believed. Childish things will be put away by the fuff- grown man; knowledge will increase and darkness disappear. But love — love is eternal. It never fails, and will never faff. God is love, and God is eternal. From all eternity and unto all eternity love continues. Therefore, we agree with Paul who, in the verse preced­ ing this chapter (I Cor. 12:31) says that while you itiay covet the best gift, here is the more excellent way Natives Found Corporal's Bite Worse Than His Bark A corporal in New Guinea proved that his bite was worse than his bark when he put his teeth into his dealings with natives. When the natives refused to take their work for the army quarter­ master corps seriously, the cor­ poral released an angry tirade— with such vigor that his false teeth fell to the ground. “The incident,” the army grave­ ly reports, “caused great concern among the natives.

Can I travel any time l like—to any place I please? A. Yes, you may now travel on bumness or pleasure to any of the thousands of points served by Greyhound. Q. Do buses still have to travel at 35 miles an horn? A. No. Greyhound’s new time-saving schedules will get you to your destination earlier, and this stepped-up service will w; mean more trips daily, more seats available. Q. Does that mean buses will no IonQar be crowded? A. Na- Althbugh the war is over, Greyhound will still be in “military service”, for a while. Thousands of dischargees, others traveling on furlough, and war workers returning to their permanent residence will be depending on Grey­ hound — so some buses will still be crowded. Q. How soon can we expect to ride in new Greyhound buses? A. We are getting some buses now, and have others on order. Present plans call for replacement of one-third of our fleet by the end of 1946. New coaches, plus modem termi­ nals, Expense-Paid tours and other improvements will make travel by highway more pleasant than ever before! WILKINS DRUG CO. Phone 21 Mocb sville, N.

As a general rule, families take it easy on cakes during the spring and summer because there’s a wealth of fruits and ber­ries to solve the dessert problem. But, comes the first whiff of fall in the air, when the kitchen will stay cool enough even for baking, and there’s the family on mother’s heels begging for a cake. Then, too, husbands and sons will soon be returning, and they will want & big taste of mother’s good homemade cake. Be ready for the call when it comes, homemakers, with a brand new line-up of recipes that are bound to win the family.We’re still aware of the strategic situation in regard to sugar, so the following recipes don’t go all-out for sugar. They’re taste-tempting and delicious in spite of it all, and there’s a grand variety from which to choose. Take your pick: *Bran Devil’s Food Cake. (Makes 16 cupcakes) 1!4 cups sifted cake flour 1>4 cups sugar Yi cup cocoa ZVi teaspoons baking powder Yi teaspoon soda I teaspoon salt % cup shortening Yi cup whole bran I cup milk I teaspoon vanilla , Z eggs Sift flour once, measure then sift again with sugar, cocoa, baking pow­ der, soda and salt into mixing bowl. Add shortening and whole bran. Add about % of the milk, then vanilla; beat until perfectly smooth, about 100 strokes. Scrape bowl and spoon and mix well. Add remaining milk and beat until well blended. Add the well-beaten eggs. Fill greased muffin tins % full. Bake in a moderate (350- degree) oven about 25 or 30 minutes. Do you like a cake served warm, In squares, with the tangy flavor of a citrus marmalade? This, then, is made-to-order: Marmalade Tea Cake. 2 tablespoons melted butter or sub­ stitute Yi cup brown sugar 114 cups com flakes IYt cups sifted flour 3 teaspoons baking powder Z tablespoons sugar Yi teaspoon salt4 tablespoons shortening I egg Yi cup milk Yi cup marmaladeBlend together butter, brown sugar and Vi cup corn flakes. Set this aside for the topping. Sift together flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Cut in shortening. Beat egg and add milk. Add to dry ingredients, stir­ ring only until combined. Add re­ maining I cup of cornflakes. Turn into greased 8-inch square pan. Dot Lynn Says: Make Dishwashing . Easier: Stunt fishy odors on dishes by washing them in soapy water to which some vinegar has been added. Rinse dishes in hot vine­ gar water, also.Hot, soapy water is indicated for greasy dishes; cold water for egg, starchy and milky dishes. Scrape dishes before starting to wash and have a strainer in the sink to collect all leftovers. It’s much easier than scooping them up out of the water. Stack dishes carefully before washing. It won’t seem like you have so many, and there’s less chance of their breaking. . China can be allowed to dry by itself on a dish rack, but glasses, silver and cutlery should be wiped immediately after wash­ ing. Make sure you have plenty of good absorbent dish towels handy. Use paper toweling for hands to save cloth towels.

Yi cup shortening I cup brown sugar 1 egg 3A cup thick sour cream IYi cups sifted cake flour Yi teasfioon baking soda 2 teaspoons baking powder H teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons cinnamon Vi teaspoon cloves Cream sugar and shortening, add egg and beat well. Add sour cream. Sift flour with baking soda, baking powder, salt, cloves and cinnamon. Add two tablespoons of the dry in­ gredients to the creamed mixture. Beat thoroughly. Add remaining dry ingredients to the first mixture, beating well. Pour into a well- greased and welt floured pan and bake in a pre­ heated 350-de­ gree oven for 30 minutes. An unusual va­ riation in cakes is to use ginger­ bread as an upside-down cake with an apple or orange topping. This saves both sugar and fussing as it is not necessary to make an icing for this type of cake: Gingerbread Upside-Doim Cake. Yi cup shortening H cup sugar I egg Yi cup molasses IH cups sifted flour Yi teaspoon salt 114 teaspoons baking powder Ys teaspoon baking soda Yi teaspoon cinnamon % teaspoon ginger - H cup sour milk Bottom of pan: Z tablespoons butter or substitute Yi cup light corn syrup H cup nuts 2 sliced apples or oranges Cream sugar and shortening. Add egg, beat well. Add molasses, blend.' Sift dry ingredients and add alter­ nately with the milk to the creamed mixture. To prepare pan, melt butter and add corn syrup. Ar­ range fruit and nuts. Pour batter over fruit and bake for 35 minutes in a 375-degree oven. Turn cake out of pan immediately after removing from oven. For those of you who like your whipped cream and can’t get it, here is an excellent way of making it: Whipped Cream. IH teaspoons plain, unflavored geV atin H cup cold milk or water I cup well-chilled light cream Soften gelatin in cold liquid. Set over hot water and stir until thor­ oughly dissolved. Pour cream into fairly deep, narrow bowl, making sure it is deep enough so cream covers at least % of the beaters. Stir in softened gelatin gradually. Set bowl In a pan of ice and let stand 5 minutes, stirring around edges several times. Leaving bowl in ice and water, beat with rotary beat- ter 5 minutes. Cream will be light and fluffy but will not stand stiff enough to peak. Let stand I or 2 minutes more in ice water, stirring gently. Cream will thicken and be­ come stiff enough to peak. This may be sweetened and flavored to taste. It may be served immediately or kept in refrigerator or cold place until ready to serve. Texture im­proves on standing in refrigerator for Yi hour. Stir until smooth and serve. , Rrieased by Western Newspaper GntoM SElQfKE BUREAU EDIT01VS NOTE: This newspaper, through special arrangement with the Washington Bdreau of Western Newspaper Vnion at 1616 Eye Street, N» Wf Washing• ton, D. Cf is able to bring readers this iveekly column on problems of the veteran and serviceman and his family. Questions may be addressed to the above Bureau and they will be answered in a subsequent column. No replies can be made direct by mail, but only in the column which will appear in this newspaper regularly. Veterans’ Administration Gen. Omar Bradley, new boss of the Veterans’ administration suc­ ceeding General Hines, has moved •with military dispatch in reorganiz­ ing the administration to provide better and more efficient service in behalf of the stream of veterans now being discharged from the serv­ices. One of the most im portant changes made by General Bradley is a complete decentralization of all veterans facilities under the super­ vision of 13 branch offices. Obvious­ ly routine decisions can be made more promptly and more intelligent­ ly in a vast organization such as the Veterans’ administration if they are not forced through a bottleneck in Washington. Another change, one which had long been a subject for discussion, and ofttimes of criticism, was the medical service. The general now has separated and elevated the medical division to a higher status under command of Maj. Gen. Paul R. Hawley. Under this new arrange­ ment, the new “surgeon general” will report direct to General Bradley. The Veterans’ administration is combing the government agencies and, other channels for help and likely will emerge in the postwar era as one of the largest if not the largest governmental agency, han­ dling as it will the affairs of some 12 million discharged veterans at one time or another. The administration has recently been the object of both congressional and private investiga­ tion as to conditions within the or­ganization, conditions at Veterans’ hospitals, treatment of patients, the tremendous shortage of physicians and nurses and other help and no doubt, it will be General Bradr ley’s policy to eliminate immediate­ ly all situations which led to these investigations. Questions and Answers Q. I was discharged on February 24, 1943 by reason of “Sec. n, A.R. 615-360 and CDD.” WiU you explain the meaning of this. I win soon be 42 years of age. Is there any way I can volunteer for service in the occupational forces? — S., Rogers- vtile, Tenn. A. “This means that you were dis­charged under section 2 of the code governing discharge of veterans and “CDD” means a certificate of medi­ cal disability. In other, words, you were discharged for a medical dis­ ability of some sort. The nature of your disability should be stated on your discharge. Yes, if you can pass the physical, the army is accept­ ing volunteers for the occupational forces. Q. How many points does a father of four children have who has been in service since last October 24 and across since ^uly?-Mrs. R. B., Uh- richsville, Ohio. A. The army point rationing sys­ tem as of September 2 gives I point per month for time* in service, I point per month for time overseas, 12 points for each child under 18 years with a maximum of three, and 5 points for each decoration or battle star. If your husband has no decorations or battle stars, he would have about 51 points. At this time 80 points are necessary for dis­ charge, although the army has an­ nounced discharge for 70 points by October I, 60 points by November I and elimination of the point sys­ tem later in the winter. Q. I am writing in regard to a soldier kiUed in Germany who made his insurance to a lady who raised him. After his death, his own mother came and claims she should get his insurance. Which one is en­titled to the insurance?—Mrs. T. G., Water Valley, Miss. A. If the soldier named the lady who raised him as beneficiary in his insurance, she is entitled to it and will get it notwithstanding the moth­er’s claims. Q.—My brothdr left high school recently to Join the navy. Is my mother entitled to.an al­ lotment or allowance from the government if he allots the re­ quired $5? E. W., BogersviUe, Tenn. A.—Yes, providing your brother listed his mother as a dependent when he enlisted or was inducted into the service. Q. If a member of the regular marine corps extends his enlistment while overseas and the extension has one more year before expiration, will he have to remain overseas nnttt the expiration, if he has been over­ seas 20 months?-—Mrs. W. D., West Memphis, Ark. A. Not necessarily. The marine corps has set up a rotation for re­turn to this country after 18 months service overseas. Extension of his enlistment would have no bearing upon the time he spent overseas. The chances are this marine will returfe soon for duty In the states. When you find it necessary to shorten a bolt, be sure to screw on the nut before sawing off the end. Then the nut will even up the broken end of the threads. Here is a different way to serve frankfurters. Split them and spread with prepared mustard, then brown in fat. Fried eggs will keep their shape and not stick to the pan if a pinch of salt is added to the frying fat. To avoid that “glazed” look which appears on rayon, iron it Dn the wrong side with a warm iron, never a hot one. Lard may become rancid if ex­posed to light, warmth, air cr moisture. Store it where it is dry and dark and cool. Heating raisins and flouring them before adding them to the batter teeps them from sinking to the bottom. GOTA COLD?

WHEN YOUR sick child is tired of lying on her back do you hoist her upright,.dum p a couple of pillows behind her back, and let her slouch in ao uncomfortable position? Or do you skillfully make a sturdy backrest from a cardboard box and place the pillows against it so that she will be firmly supported to maintain good sitting posture? when the doctor orders a steam inhalation to relieve the congestion from Sally’s bad cold, do you look at him in wide-eyed wonderment and say, "What’s that?” Or do you efficiently improvise a steam tent from an umbrella and give the treatment by making an inhalator from a teakettle and funnel? doctors ARE saying , "One person in every household should know home nursing.” Most Red Cross chapters are offering free courses in home nursing taught by professional nurses. You learn how to improvise hospital equipment, give bed baths, prepare soft and liquid diets. The free courses offered by the Red Cross in home nursing will teach you to be a capable home assistant to your doctor. He’ll appreciate your competence, and you’ll earn grateful thanks from your family.

A ttttm Right Turn Plain people in America are tired of regimentation. The figures show it. Late in April big-cltjr news­ papers were publishing tables of figures that grew out of a survey by the American Institute of Public Opinion, popularly called a "Gallup Poll.” An article by George Gallup Umself accompanied the figures I examined and they were both in­teresting and encouraging. Nothing but victory in war could make bigger news. Nothing short of unconditional surrender by all of America’s national enemies could be more gratifying than this: Suddenly there has come a popular yearning for the days when Mr. Customer was boss, when people got paid accord­ ing to what their work was worth, when they had a right to anything their money would buy. Back to Earth Dr, Gallup says, 'there are ■ indi­ cations today that the largest group of the American people are not now particularly interested in seeing many changes or reforms in this country after the war. In fact, a survey Just completed across the nation by the Institute reveals that the majority of Americans want things to remain pretty much as they were before the war.” Bie head of the Institute told a few hopeful details about individual answers to his questions. He says a good share of the minority who wish for post-war changes want to change tack, back to conditions we knew years before the war. He didn’t say so, but indicated clearly that the people are longing for the days of self-reliance, before the WPA, the CCC and the NYA. Pompous Protests People are beginning to walk around the idea of dictated social change to look at the back side of it. The gold paint is beginning to rub off those cheap theories about all citizens doing a similar amount of work and drawing about the same pay, government guaranteed jobs for everybody, politically run banks and stores, regimented farmers, standardized houses, clothes and food. The sawdust is showing through. Bie famous surveyor of public opinion grouped into three classes everybody his scouts questioned. The break-down was by education­ al attainment, (I) college, (2) high school and (3) grade school people. Now who, do you suppose, wants the social changes? The college class— S8% of them. More than half the other two groups disagree but most of the cap-and-gown folk want America made over. Fake High-Brows Revolutionists, critics of represent­ ative government, malcontents and promoters of European theories have done an amazing job in Amer­ ican colleges. The mystery is—How! They smoke-screened the unique prosperity of this world’s most fa­ vored people and, protected by aca­ demic indifference, spotlighted the flaws of popular government and fumed about unfair competition. Selfishness is a trait of mortal man, not a special feature of pri­ vate, enterprise. This fact has been proved to a lot of honest people un­ der war-time regimentation, need­ less restraints, questionable ration­ing and discourteous petty officials. It is losing favor. We have heard a lot about post-war demobilization of the Army and Navy. Evidently the public wants to hear about the demobilization of bureaucracy. T h i s P l a i d H e l p s B u y V i c t o r y B o n d Smart for town and country wear is a plaid jacket of red, green and yellow, combined with a green skirt. Wear it with scuffles for the casual outdoor life. Business and college girls are sewing their own suits this year, and putting their savings into Victory Bonds. U. S.

No sincere friend of America’s public schools wants them bossed by the national government. The thing was referred to always as "federal aid to educa­tion.” That sounded much better. But a great many people were not fooled at all. They had seen bait used to hide hooks before by polit­ ical as well as practical fishermen. Although the bill stated, right in Sec­ tion One, that it would be a nice little law if passed and not help any government man, or group of men, grab the schools and run away with them, the platitude was ignored by our sage and seasoned Senate. Amended by Senate On the floor of the Senate the “federal aid” bill underwent some changes. As changed, no part of the federal funds therein provided nor any part of the local funds there­ by supplemented could be used to make or maintain any distinction between races. That’s federal con­ trol, beyond dispute. I am not dis­ cussing the merits of the amend­ ment. I am saying this: Federal control’ will follow federal aid as night follows day. The subject is alive again now. A committee in the House and another committee in the Senate are once more considering legislation that flies the flag of “federal aid to edu­ cation.” Once more I am empha­sizing that financial aid to local schools from far-away Washington will bring federal control of local schools in spite of all the protective clauses ever built out of words. It Is Federal Law Bie Supreme Court of the United States, the most powerful tribunal on this war-cursed earth, has estab­ lished a precedent in favor of fed­ eral control. The Supreme Court has ruled that the federal government can control that which it subsidizes. Little, protesting sentences in the preamble of new legislation figura­ tively fade away in the, light of this Supreme Court ruling. Some people may want to argue that federal aid to schools is not federal subsidy of schools. I main­ tain that any distinction between the two things is a distinction without a difference. I have learned quite a little about these twin bills recent­ ly and about people who advocate their passage. The bills are prac­ tically alike and they point to gov­ ernment control like a compass points to the north. The Entering Wedge Both bills call for a 300 million dollar annual outlay of federal funds, and it’s only a- start. Testi­mony of people who journey to Washington boosting the idea is very clear. It translates the handwriting on the wall. They expect federal aid to grow rapidly after the first bill is passed. I also think it would grow in less than ten years from federal subsidy to federal control. I am opposed to federal aid there­fore for several reasons: (I) It will lead directly to federal control of education. (2) When the national government controls the local schools, the children’s parents have nothing to say about what takes place at school. (3) If it happens, popular education, so dearly bought, will be nothing but a handy stepping stone toward political dictatorship.

York, at one time pastor on the Davic circuit, but who is now living in Lincolnton, was in town a short while last week. He was on his way to at- tand the Methodist Conference at Winston-Salem. About 100 friends gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Lee Kurfees, near Jericho on Sundav and spread a fine birthday dinnet in honor of Miss Hazel Kurfees’ seventeenth birthday and W. K. StonestreePs 29th birthday, The table was loaded with all kinds of good things to eat, and when all were filled the tabic was still load­ ed. The day was enjoyed by all present. Prof. E. C. Tatum carried the following high school agricultural pupils to the State Pnir at Raleigh last week: J. C. Jones, Lonnie Lanier, JakeMeroney, Billie How­ ard, Floyd Tutterow and L. Dwig- gins. The first three named went to enter tne cattle judging eontest, while the last named went to en­ ter the crop judging contegt. The Davie boys won two prizes, J. C. Jones winning the 7th and Lon­ nie Lanier the 9th. We are all proud of the record our boys made. Following are the Methodist Conference appointmente for Da­ vie county: Mocksville, C. A.

Hiddenite.N. C. Recently I was talking to a man who is employed by a man and his wife who are engaged in die mercantile business. They live in a fine house, have a big business, and are worth many thousands of dollars. The lady’s father is pro­ bably worth a million dollars. However, the thing that impress­ ed me most was what this em­ ployee, who has worked for this man and his wife many years, told me about this lady. She works regnlarty, just like their clerks, not because she has to, but be­ cause she wants to. Not because she is craving, and certainly not because she is stingy. They em­ ploy quite a number of people, but she works like the rest She is kind and good to her help and to their customers. She is espec­ ially devoted to children. The mether of only one child,'yet she teaches her to be kind, and will not let her feel that she is living in luxury and ease. This lady will meet you in kindness and gentle- ness, not in pride and pomp'"and splendor, and will make you feel that she is no richer titan the poorest. Her employees love her, her customert love her. She "tea­ ches a class in Sunday school, and she loves this class, and no doubt they love her. She simply wins her way by her kindness and gen­ tleness, and because she doesn’t make folks believe that she holds herself above them. She could luxurite, flirt with the highest so­ ciety, drink her cocktails, ride and gad about, like thousands of un­ godly society women, but she takes just die opposite course. What an example! It is worth while. Thank God for any wom­ an who coxld hold her head high, be proud and vain, but that goes the way of work [and toil, kind­ ness and gentleness, and has a deep prineipal of love and sym­ pathy in her heart for her" fellow- men. “O, why should rhe spirit of mor­ tal be proud? Like a swifr fleeting meteor, a fast flying doud, A flash of rhe lightning, a break pf the wave, Man passes from life to his rest in the grave!” Oh, the blessedness of kindness and gentleness! It is true that this alon® won’t make one a Chris­ tian, but certainly this belongs to a Christian. Lots of so-called Christians lack a spirit of this kind. Many are proud, vain and worldly, and hold their heads high, even too high to win souls to Cod, and reveal to their fel­ lows anything but Christiikeness. E n d o f R a tio n in g O f S u g a r N e a r Secretary ot Agriculture Ander son has disclosed that i,6oo,ooo tons of sugar have been discovered in the ports of Java since the Japa- nese surrender.

READ THE AD$ Along With th> N bwb What is reported as an influential Moc within the Tr :mau Adminis. tration is predicting that Chester Bowles. OPA dictator, will either bring himself In line with the poli­ cies advocated by hir superiors or that he will get bis hat and get out. Either that, or that the Presi dent will kick him out. Bowles seems to be quarreling with pretty much everybody in au thorltv In the Administration who refuse to knuckle to his own views. He insists upon the continuation of unlimited and rigid price con trols which, of course, is one tech­ nique by which he hopes to main­ tain his sprawling headquarters staff of 3,500 in the National office, whereas the Administration has in­ dicated iss purpose to get the gov. ernment ont of the way of private business and enterprise and to re­ establish free markets : s soon as such a program can safely be un­ dertaken Bowles lost his main ally of rad­ icals in high places in war-time a- gencies when the President kicked William H Davis out of the office of this agency over to the Labor Department. The OPA director, who has been in water well over his neck since taking this post, and usually floun­ dering around hopelessly in the muddied depths of bis official re­ sponsibilities, has now dared inter pose his objections to reconversion policies enunciated by John W. Snyder, director of War Mobiliza­ tion and Reconversion. Mr. Snyder, of course, is in au­ thority over Bowies, and acting di­ rectly for the President, he insists that p.ice controls he relaxed and restricted only to goods and com­ modities representing the necessi­ ties, while the OPA continues to demand the righot to impose such controls wiih few exceptions, even though scarcities are rapidiy disap­ pearing. The Washington gossip now is that the fight is strictly one to the finish now between Snyder and Bowles, which, in the last analysis, means a fight between the Presi­ dent and Bowles It should require no sage or pro­ phet ta foretell which will win in such a conflict. What the President should do. of course, is to temporize with the headstroug and egotistic dictator of the OPA 110 longer, but to give him summary orders to get out of bis office unless he is willing to 0 - bey the instructions and follow the course of action planned by his su­ periors. Whatever further price controls will be needed can be handled eith­ er by some of the old-line Federal departments or by tne skeleton of the present OPA organization un­ der a competent and practical di rector. And much more efficiently as well as much more cheaply. Certainly., with rationing practi- call” over and price controls limit, ed to a mere fraction of their ori­ ginal coverage, it is no longer ne­ cessary to maintain an OPA organ­ ization at an annual cost of $177,. 000.000 and with a staff of tens of thousands of Federal employes, the main occupation of many of whom is to loll around in luxurious idle­ ness. Rapid reconversion is being rude­ ly deterred alteady bv a multiplic­ ity of strikes. That it should be further obstructed by the OPA in order to perpetuate itself in office is intoierable.—Charlotte Observer. W A R B O N D S H e lp T h e O rp h a n s The Oxford Orphanage at Ox­ ford, North Carolina’ has a record of seventy two years of service to the children of North Carotina Over five thousand have been cared for and trained. Its graduates and former pupils are In all walks of life and there is no record of a for. mer pupil having been convicted and sentenced for committing 0 ma. jor crime in North Carolina. It is the oldest Orphanage In the State and receives children other than those of membershfn of the sup porting order. At the ^present time less than for­ ty per cent of the copulation of the Orqhanage is of Masonic par entage. TJie home possesses valu­ able buildings, grounds aed equip ment and has had no operating de­ ficit for several years. The annual bodget of tbe Or­ phanage calls for an expenditure of £170.000 . This provides shelter, clothing and food, recreation, heat, light, books, school supplies, health program, staff ot trained workers, vocational training in several de parlments. laundry, repairs and up. keep to grounds, buildings and e- quipment and oxperienced case work for a family of 308 children. Superintendent C. K. Proctor an nounces that liberal gifts are need­ ed this year for operating expenses in order to maintain tbe Home and provide for emergency repairs The Oxford Orphanage is more than a philanthropy—it is an in­ vestment in the lives of North Car­ olina boys and girls who would not otherwise have a chance It pavs to the State and its citizenship the high dividends in character and trained yonng people. It is an op portunity today for North Carolina citizens to express in a substantial way their desire to help others. The orphanages of the State use tbe Thanksgiving season as an oc casion to appeal to the citizens of the State for so much needed assis. tance. The Superintendent of the Oxford Orphanage announces that the home is open for visitors each day and hundreds of North Caro­ lina citizens visit this historic spot every year. The Oxford Orphanage family gave 230 to the Armed Services— seven gold stars are on the flag. U. S. War Bonds—Victory Se­ ries-accepted for all purposes. T h e R o a d T o R u in The new and better life we are all promised in our postwar world may be costly entertainment. The plan to pay £25 maximum unem ployment benefits for 25 weeks might better be called the National Vacation Measure.” What would happen at tbe end of 26 weeks when th e vacation was over? Would there be a new bill (or the next year, on the theory that un­ less it was passed there would then be unemployment? Naturally, tbe higher the benefits end the longer the periods each year for which they are paid, the more difficult it will bo to recruit help. Retail stores, garages, and many other trades find workers unwilling to ac cept work, even when thousands are being laid off from war indus tries. Farm help is almost impos­ sible to get at any price'the farmer can pay, to raise food to sell at a figure demanded by the govern, ment. Sooner or later we are all going to have to get down to earth and work and save, or we will starve.

Josephus Daniels, editor of The News and Observer, of Raleigh, has kept hot behind tbe Davidson connty election fraud mess, de­ manding that tbe whole thing be cleared up In spite of the desire of the Democratic political machiue’s leaders and ward heelers in (hat county to continue to “wallow in their own mire ’’ A few days ago under the heading “DAVIDSON’S TURN AGAIN.” Mr. Daniels car­ ried the following editorial: Dr. Frank DeVyver,- suervisor of the State Merit Svstem Council, has taken proper action in the case of E. Clyoe Hunt, superintendent of public welfare, who has never been indicted in the Davidson coun tv election scandal, although the State and Board of elections termed the evidence against him “over­ whelming.” Dr. DeVyver first called upon Hunt to resign. Hunt refused to do so. Dr. DeVyver has now call­ ed upon the Davidson County Bo rd of Weltari to “take action.” It is now the turn of another Davidson county agent to do some­ thing as a result of what tbe State Board of Elactions termed flag­ rant, boll and defiant violations of the electio laws.” But, fortunately, it appears that this time tbe matter will not stop, as did all efforts to invote tbe crimi­ nal courts after tbe refusal of the district solicitor and Davidson coun­ ty grand jury to act. Dr. DeVyver has gone farther and has called the matter to the attentioo of Federa Social Security Board, which sup­ plies a portion of the welfare funds for Davison county, and to the at tention ot tbe United States Civil Service Commission, charged with responsibility for enforcement of tbe Hatch Act, making political ac­ tivity on the part of those paid from the Federal funds and crimi nal offense. Tne eyes of the state are again on Davidson. But this time there appears to be a good chance that it Davidson county authorities do not act Federal authorities witl.

D id S t. P e te r F o r e se e A to m ic B om b ? (Reidsville Review) You can, if your imagination is good; find in the Bible a seeming prophecy for all almost anything and everything happening nowa­ days. For instance it might be claimed that St. Peter foresaw or envisioned release of atomic en­ ergy with its destructive power and tacked a warning to. his pro­ phecy. The third chapter of the SecondEpistle of the Apesrles, be­ ginning with the tenth verse, is dted as this prophecy: But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which'the heavens snail pass away with a great noise, and the ele­ ments shall melt with fervent heat; the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all things shall be’dissolved, what manner of per. sons ought ye be in all holy con­ versation and godliness—.” “Nev­ ertheless, we according to His pro­ mise, look for a new heaven and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness.” Maybe we are at the beginning of a “new earth,” but there has been mighty little thus far in the way of an increase of “holy con­ versation and godliness.” In fact, the ways of the ungodly are be­ coming more and more goshaw- ful. ____________ Y a n k R e to r n io g H o m e In h e r its 7 4 M illio n D o lla r s New York. — An American in­ fantryman said to be ieturning to an inheritance of 74 million dollars was the topic of conversation a- mong 15 thousand G-I’s arriving a- board Qneen Elizabeth Tbe magazine writer.

Lots of lit­ tle friendly ges­ tures that mean so much have been forgotten during the war, but they should be reinstated. Something that all of us with a garden can do is to share with a neighbor. There are probably lots of things that you yourself cannot use that would be welcomed by a neigh­bor. Send a basket of garden vege­ tables or fruit, all dressed up with fancy wrappings and ribbon, and see what a friend you can make. Incidentally, include a lemon or two to make it handy for the home­ maker to season either fruit or veg­ etables. Another gift that will be welcome is a set of your favorite recipes, with or without a basket of garden prod­ uce. Every woman has a few choice dishes which her friends have asked for, and it makes for more friendli­ ness to be generous with the instruc­ tions. Here are some brief suggestions which I’d like to pass on to you, par­ ticularly for vegetables: If you find yourself short of salad dressings for a tossed salad, sprinkle 2 or 3 tablespoons of oil on the indi­ vidual salad then squeeze lemon juice generously over this, salt to taste and toss the salad lightly. To make a good, old-fashioned cole slaw, add the following amounts to Vh cups of shredded cabbage: % teaspoon salt, Vh tablespoons sugar, 6 tablespoons coffee cream, and 3 tablespoons of lemon juice. In making pickled beets, cook the beets first, then slice and cover with equal parts of lemon juice and water. Add sugar to ta s te , and slices of sweet onion, if desired. Now that fall «ias come, we can start turning our attention to heartier foods again. Cabbage is a good vegetable to use because it is coming in season: Stuffed Cabbage. (Serves 5 to 6) 3 tablespoons uncooked rice I pound ground beef 1 egg well-beaten 2 tablespoons minced onion 2 teaspoons salt Yi teaspoon pepper 8 medium to large cabbage leaves Lynn Says: Refrigerate Tour Foods: Re­ frigeration is necessary to most foods not only to preserve their appearance and palatability, but also to prevent food spoilage. In most cases, temperatures of 40 degrees will take care of the situation. This temperature is best maintained.Meat,' milk, vegetables and fruits are extremely perishable and should be refrigerated imme­ diately. Root vegetables do not need as low as- 40 degrees and may be kept out of the ice box. Bananas need never be refriger­ ated. Keep all foods covered except meat. Cover it lightly with waxed paper. Fruit needs chilling, not freez­ing. The crisper or open dish or even paper cartons are excellent for keeping eggs in the refrigera­tor. Meat needs the coolest place in the refrigerator—right under the freezing unit. Bacteria multiply very rapidly unless it is well pro- .ected. Lynn Chambers* Menu.

The most se.-e <1-111 age is u«nally done to young tiers. Whenever you see a j--bv bite ut-s- around the base of-the tree you can rest assured that the Ivnr.- has already girdled the haik, and no- le.-S control methods are used I he tree will die. There are three chemicals on the m arket that can be used to control the borer. Namely, paradichloro- benzene, ethylene dicbloride emul­ sion, aud para scalecide. Of these three I would recommend the para- scalecide, because it is easier to use and is less likely to injure the tree. You simply dilute one quart of the material with 7 quarts ot water, and pour from 1A pint of the solu­ tion to pints, depending on the size of the tree, around the trunk, and then throw a few shovelfuls of dirt around the base to hold the fumes. No further attention is Is necessary. . This material can be purchased locally. It should be applied in October, as the temperature will be too cold later for effective results.

DECLARED OLD IDEALWASHINGTON.—Although the full employment bill is being pushed through congress into law by a pre­ ponderant favor for it—and there is no objection to the basic hopefulness of its theory—no one seems to know what it means, or even where it came from. By great odds, it is the most uncertain and unclarified piece of legislation of my time here. I have been calling it a CIO bill because the CIO has cam­paigned for it in the usual ex­ pensive and prepossessing man­ ner which obscures other back­ ing and monopolizes the publi­ city. But CIO planners did not write it. The numerous senators whose names are attached as co-authors will give you little satisfaction if you inquire where they got the notion of passing a law proclaiming the right to work which has always existed, legally, constitutionally and by cus­ tom. The original draft of their bill was probably composed, as nearly as I can ascertain, by the Farmers Union, farthest left of the three farm­ ers lobbies and often called the farmer branch of the CIO. But of all things the farmers need right now, a law declaring their right to work must run behind help short­ages, equipment shortages, price fears and practically .every other ex­ isting agricultural consideration. The Farmers Union people will say they got the idea out of a speech Mr. Roosevelt made in which he mentioned a lot of rights, including the right to work. But Mr. Roose­ velt did not say there ought to be a law, and before he mentioned the matter it had gotten into a resolu­ tion of an international labor office meeting in Philadelphia. Sir Wil­ liam Beveridge, whose vast social security hopes were swamped in the last election, was an ardent champion of legislation to declare the right to work. ^3oing behind and beyond him, an investigation will bring you to the fact that such a right is declared in the Soviet Rus­ sian constitution. There it has some meaning because under a dictatorship fix­ing Salaries, controlling hours, renting homes and even cooking and charging for the workers’ meals, while restraining the worker from freedom, a law promising to share whatever work the government gives is a realistic right. But this is all far behind American ideals and rights which already' go much further, promising among other things, freedom of work at one place or another and tlw right not to work. Even this would not be so perplex­ ing except that both sponsors and amenders of this right-to-work bill agree it carries no legal rights. Co­ author Thomas of Utah may not have been pinned down on that point yet, but Co-author Murray and Amender Taft, and all the others, seem agreed no citizen could sue an employer or the government for a job or get out an injunction, or that a labor union could sue, or get the courts to make someone estab­ lish jobs or wages, hours or any­ thing. This, they all say, is just a declaration of policy by congress, no matter how it is worked. Its authors particularly deny that it is a trick to establish a legal basis for a whole new conception of law in which the unions or individual work­ ers could build up decisions through this new Supreme court to indict the government or employers and perhaps establish criminal penal­ ties. If it does not do this, then what does it do? Well, its spon­ sors rather frankly indicate they look on it as a political propa­ ganda step, establishing a pol- icy-peg upon which they can hang future legislative demands. Particularly they want big spending appropriations made in the future, and they will then say: “The policy of every man a job has been established so this appropriation must be made to give him a job.” Or they can build up a demand that the Alu-; minum company be broken up . for that reason, or that all black hair be made white because it would create jobs in the hair dyeing industry. This makes it seem unimportant because congress retains the right to appropriate or not appropriate regardless of this undefined declara­ tion of an unagreed policy. Frank­ ly, then I do not know what it means, except that everyone will ask for government funds. A decline in work-week is .another provision; Plans to cut the govern­ ment work-week again from 40 (it was 48) to 30 have already been pro­ posed in bills. This keeps salaries where they were and prevents nor­ mal utilization of the talents, abili­ ties and aptitudes of the nation’s manpower. It does not increase pur­ chasing power or create more em­ ployment opportunitie' it merely shareS-the-work, less work for the nation as a whole, therefore less pro­ ductivity and less tax revenues to sustain Vhigh economy, needed for lull employment.

VERY farmer and rancher, every person connected with the food and agricultural industry in these United States from producer to processor, and citizens generally, should watch with deep interest the meeting of the fbod and agriculture organization of the United Nations in Quebec, starting October 16.This is the first of the permanent new United Nations agencies to be launched after the end of hostilities, which marks the importance at­ tached to its deliberations by our government and the governments of all the 44 United Nations. As this is written, the list of American dele­gates to the conference has not been announced. It is likely, however, that the delegates from the United States will be headed by Howard Talley of the department of agricul­ture, who has acted as the United States representative on the Interim commission of the organization. The food and agricultural or­ganization ratified by the 44 na­ tions at San Francisco is part and parcel, and a most impor­ tant function of the United Nations organization. It is not a relief agency. Its aim is to im­ prove world agriculture and to increase food production; to provide a higher standard of diet and raise the levels of nutri­tion and the standards of Uving throughout the world . . . all of which is intended to contribute to an expanding woTld economy. The organization will likely set up machinery which will function for world agriculture and production much like our own department of agriculture functions in the United States . . . in an advisory capacity, passing along scientific development . . . the dissemination of agricul­ tural knowledge . . . technical in­formation and the results of sci­ entific agricultural research . .'. to aid in setting up agencies in all the 44 countries for combating soil ero­ sion, to improve soil and crops, to develop better livestock . . . to take into consideration reforestation . . . rural electrification . . . farm to market roads . . . exploration of new sources of food . . . to provide better tools for primitive farmers to increase production . . . attention to surplus crops and a better dis­tribution of these crops and many other subjects necessarily .attendant to the huge and complicated task of providing more and better food for a world and its population ravished by years of total war. Not Enough Land There are now about 2,200,000,000 human beings populating this old world on which we live, and the ex­ perts predict that at present rate of increase there will be a billion more by the end of the century. These experts further point out that there are at present only about 4,- 000,000,000 acres of arable land in use, which is less than 2H acres per capita. Even in our own coun­try there is only a fraction more than seven acres per capita in farm lands, including woodlands and pas­ ture lands. If we would take into account only the crop lands har­ vested, approximately 321,250,000 acres, our per capita acreage would just about equal the world aver­ age. So without an expanding acreage of arable lands, without basic re­sources in India, in China, in Rus­ sia and many other countries, such as we have in this country, the ex­perts say that the world will con­ tinue to produce insufficient food to feed its billions of humans. What the .representatives of these 44 nations . . . what our own delegation does at Quebec to commit this country to a pro­ gram of world agricultural re­ habilitation will determine in large measure whether we as a people were honest when we sub­ scribed to the Atlantic charter and the charter of the United '.Nations at San Francisco. For with this charter in exist­ence and binding upon us . . . with our nation emerging from the war as the most fortunate, the most pow­ erful . . . with a new conception and in a new position as the lead­ er of the world . . . the time has passed when we can watch the peo­ ple of India, China or any other natiorfstarving, and salve our con­ science with a check to some relief society.' Two-thirds of the people of the world are farmers. These hundreds of millions are striving to raise food on worn out land. And from the selfish few conges, the comment: “Why should we help, the rest of’ the world raise food when there continues to be surplus in our own crops?” And the answer, of course, is that with proper dis­ tribution; that with the rest of the world eating and living on a par with our own diet; there would be no surplus, with a continuing ex­ panding world economy calling at ways for increasing production. Vitamin Loss While investigating whether g!aw or tin containers caused the greatest loss of vitamin C in canned vegeta­ bles, research workers found that the material used for making the container had no effect on vitamin C but the loss was caused by the air left In the can. The amount of vi­ tamin C lost was in proportion to the amount of headspace left unfilled in the container. Fattening Lambs One help in putting weight on lambs is to keep sheep and lambs free from parasites, especially nodu­ lar worms and stomach worms. In­festation with parasites holds back growth and increases feed costs. Serious losses from parasites can be prevented by providing clean pasture, by the use of phenothiazine, and by taking other precautions. Bath Banishes Bines According to etymologists, thk English word “bath” comes indi- rectly from a Greek word meaning “to drive sadness from the mind.” Which goes to prove again that the classic Greeks were a modem peo. pie and that they knew the full valua of bodily cleansing. Bathe frequent- Iy and thoroughly, and thus “drive sadness from the mind.” Dustless Duster To make a “dustless” duster, im* merse a large square of cheesecloth in a basin of strong, hot soapsuds. Let it soak for a while, then wring out and dry. When the cloth be. comes soiled, it can be washed an{ retreated.

FEATURES'** «- THESTORTTHUSFARr A white COlt Is born on the Goose Bar ranch, high in tbc Rockies of southern Wyoming. Its color indicates that it is a throwback to tbe Albino, a wild stallion, its sire is Appalachian, a famons racing stud. A few months on* the range changes the white foal, named Thnnderhead but com­ monly called Goblin, from an tmgainly, awkward beast to a strong and Intelli­ gent animal, big for his age. During the winter he hi brought In to Die stables, fed oats, and given a little training. Goblin Is sent back to the range'again In May, a full-fledged yearling. One day he starts off southward on a lone Jour­ ney of exploration. He comes to the foot of a range of mountains. CHAPTER IX Another thing that had happened —a band of horses was grazing near the highway. A car passed, filled with noisy, ugly-looking men. Going up the hill by the overpass, one of them had shouted, “See that old hnare? Bet I can hit her!” He had taken his gun, stood up in the car, and pulled thp trigger. The section gang working on the railroad that ran alongside the high­ way saw the whole thing. They saw the man shoot, saw the mare leap spasmodically, then go down with a crash, heard the burst of rau­ cous laughter from the men, saw the car speed up and vanish over the bin. Ken began to shake in bed. A white colt in a band of dark horses— how easy to mark and single outl However, there would have been the body—they hadn’t found any body. There was some comfort in that. ■ Goblin, meanwhile, was feeding in lush pastures south of the border. Though in a single afternoon’s play an the Saddle Back he or any one of the yearlings could run twenty miles and not know it, he had taken a full week to work his way to the foot of the Buckhorn Range. There was so much to see on the way. So many dells and ravines to explore. So many hillocks to stand upon, gazing and studying and sniffing—so wide a country—so many bands of antelope and elk. The grass in ev­ ery meadow tasted different. It was in this fashion that the Gob­ lin moved. After his first start southward he had just drifted. Now —here he was. It was the river that interest­ ed him. He had smelled it for miles before he reached it. He had never seen anything like it. It took him a long time to decide that there was nothing dangerous about it, though it moved. It plunged and leaped. It hurled itself over rocks. It tossed chunks of itself into the air. It was alive therefore. It had a voice too. A loud voice that nev­ er ceased its burble of sound. In­ cessantly, it talked, whispered, gur­gled, chuckled. Having power in himself, he knew that there was power in the river. Facing it, standing there on the brink, he felt that it challenged him, and he gathered himself to fight back. In an hour he had accepted the fact that the river would not attack him. It ignored him. Nothing he did altered its course or its beha­ vior. He drank from it, at last,' and the river did not even inind that. He followed it upward. It was leading him further into those hills which got steeper as they got closer until they sheered up, leaning over him. And the river was narrower, between higher walls. Its voice was a deep roar now. Occasionally, look­ ing ahead, he would see it coming down over a wall of rock—blue on the slide, a smother of white bfelow. So it happened that he was stand­ ing on a flat rock, just gathering himself to leap to another rock in midstream when the thing was flung against his legs, so terrifying him that he made ids leap badly, and was swept into the channel, and from then on knew nothing but the struggle to keep his nose above water and daw himself out. When he accomplished this he was some yards downstream. Even while he was shaking himself, his head turned to look back. What was it that had hit him? He must know. It was still there on the rock on which he had been standing, and it didn’t move.With his ears alert and his eyes fastened on it. Goblin went back and investigated. A foal! Not so unlike himself, ex­cept that instead of being all white, it had brown markings on it. It was, in fact, like Calico, bis piebald Granny. Goblin was shuddering all over. The foal had no eyes—they had been picked out. - In half a dozen places there were bloody gashes—It was at this moment that he leaped to meet the flapping black cloud that dropped down upon him from the sky. Huge pinions beat about his head. The creature was as big as he was himself. Goblin emitted the first real scream of his life when, for a moment, the terri­ ble face looked closely into his own, and the great hooked beak drove for his eyes. Goblin reared and went over back­ward, the eagle flailing him with wings, beak, and talons. Rolling on die narrow rocky beach half in and half out of water Goblin strug­ gled to get from under the crea­ture. When.he gained his feet, with the instinct of die fighting stallion, he darted his head down to bite the foreleg of his enemy. He got it between his teeth and crunched. He was clawed by the other leg, his shoulder was raked and gouged. The beating wings buffeted Ws head like clubs. He held on. The beak struck him again and again. Blood Spurted from Ws neck and belly. Suddenly it was gone, shooting straight upward, then sliding into the shelter of the pines. Goblin stood alone, the thin shank, partly covered with fine, closely set feathers, and the curled, cold, fist-like claw, dan­ gling from his teeth. There was a thin, bad-smelling Wood oozing from the end of it. He dropped it and stood shudder­ ing. It terrified him. Then, with Ws insatiable curiosity, he must stoop to smell it again. Never would he forget that smell. It sent him up on Ws hind legs, snorting. His ears were filled with the sound the eagle was making—a furious screaming, “Kark! Kark! Kark!” He leaped away from that fatal spot and went scrambling over the locks downstream, working The creature was as big as he was himself. away from the river bank toward easier going.The eagle peered from his pine tree. He sat on a bare bough, bal­ ancing himself on one claw and one stump and his spread wings. At his repeated cry of rage the woods around became alive with small, frightened, scurrying animals. His eyes, terrible in their far vision and their predatory determination, were fastened on the colt galloping north­ ward', a wWte streak down the dark brink of the canyon and at last a moving dot on the plains, five miles away. The Goblin used the speed that he had never used before; that had reached him, coiled like invisible, microscopic snakes, in the chromo­ somes passed down to him by his forbears.It was a great run. Next morning when the sun rose, the Goblin stood comfortably among the yearlings of the Goose Bar ranch, turned broadside to the de­ licious penetrating rays, snoring softly in peace and blissful ease. It lasted for a week—the peace and the bliss. A week in which, as it happened, no one of the McLaugh­ lin family discovered that the prodi­ gal had returned.It was during that week that young Ken McLaughlin, in a fury of despair over the loss of Ws colt, stood on the top of Castle Rock and lmrled down the cherished stop watch which was to have timed the future racer. At the end of the week. Goblin left the herd of yearlings and drifted south again. His terror had changed, as all terror should, into knowledge and acceptance of a danger; a les­ son learned. And those mountains down there exerted an irresistible fascination over him. He went more slowly than before. He spent a week grazing with a littie band of antelope in a dell-like valley on the way. And he explored extensively on both sides of the lower readies of the river. lWhen at last he reached the rock where he had been attacked by the eagle it was near the end of July. This time there was no piebald foal lying across the rock in mid­ stream, no monster bird in the air. Goblin spent a half-hour by that rock, smelling and snorting, going over every inch of the littie beach where he and the eagle had fought. Something like a dried curled branch lay upon it with a darkish clot on the end. He circled it, then reared and came down pawing at it. He cut it to bits and ground it into the earth. He followed the torrent upward until he could follow it no longer. It 'filled the gorge. Streams ran over the sides of the cliff to join it. In the crevices of rock were pockets of snow. The stream was choked with the spring floods. It pounded and churned. A dead tree drifting down was hurled tens of feet into the air. ' Goblin looked at the river a long time. He raised his head. What was beyond? Up there? His nostrils flared. The river and the rock walls were so steep and so high that he could no longer see the sky, only craggy peaks, and ever more of them. But up beyond all that was where he must go. Cows and horses are by instinct expert engineers and will always ■find the easiest wdy through a moun­ tainous country. Goblin detoured from the river on the eastern side. He had stiff climbing to do but there were breaks in the river walls and running with the brood mares on the Saddle Back had made him as sure-footed as a goat. Hours of hard going brought- him at length to the last grassy terrace before the rocks shot up in an almost sheer cliff. The place was like a park with clumps of pine and rock, Uttle dells and groves; and, scattered at the base of the cliff and on its summit, numbers of the huge smooth-sur­ faced stones like the one balanced on the top of Castle Rock on the Goose Bar ranch, Some of them as large as houses and perfectly smooth and spherical, these boulders are to be found all through the country of the Conti­ nental Divide, creating a wonder in the mind 6? any beholder as to what great glaciers in what bygone age could have ground and polished them and left them at last hanging by a hair on narrow shelves of rock, or balanced on peaks, or suspended !above crevices where one inch more of space on either side Would have ffefcd them to go crashing down. Goblin was hungry. He took his bearings first, then began to graze. Roimding a clump of trees he halt­ ed and lifted his head sharply. There, Stot a hundred yards away, close to the base of the cliff wall, were two handsome bay colts graz­ ing. Goblin was qiitet tor a moment, savoring the interest«nd delight of a meeting with some of his own kind. Then he whinnied and stamped his foot. The colts looked up. With in­ nocent friendliness they trotted to­ ward him. Being a stranger Goblin had to discover certain things im­ mediately. Were these mares or stallions? Where did they come from? Would they be friends or ene­ mies? So, just as children, meeting, always ask each other, What’s your name? How old are you? Where do you live?—these colts exchanged in­ formation, squealing and snorting and jumping about. This was interrupted by a ringing neigh that came, it seemed, right out of the wall of rock. Tlie colts responded immediately. They whin­nied in answer and galloped toward the wall, angling off to a place at some distance where a ridge ran jag* gedly up the cliff. And then, to Gob­ lin’s amazement, they galloped right into the wall and disappeared. Goblin galloped after. Turning the shoulder of the ridge, he found him­self in a narrow chasm which split the rampart of rock and led some distance into the heart of it. There was no sign of the colts, but the passageway was full of the smell of horses. Goblin trotted confidently on. Suddenly there was a harsh scream from above, and the shadow of wide wings drifted across the chasm. As long as he lived a moving shad­ow falling upon him from above would galvanize Goblin into terrified action. He crouched, backing, and his up-flung head and straining eyes, tried to spy out his enemy. But not by looking could the colt sea and apprehend the eagles’ eyrie, clinging to a ledge far up on the peak, with one eagle sitting on the edge of the nest, and the other—thaj one-legged eagle—drifting down over the chasm. Colts and eagles live on different planes. Only by the cold 'shadow falling on him, only by the scream, with its strange mingling of ferocity and sadness, only by the horror and shuddering within himself could he know his danger. He plunged forward, driving straight toward the rock which ap­ parently closed the path. But ar­ riving there, the passageway turned.- He went on, zigzagging. He saw and heard nothing more of the eagle. At last the sides of the chasm sloped away, exposing a wider wedge of sky. And in front of him was a mass ot the great boulders which seemed to have been rolled down the sides, choking the chasm completely. But there was still the smell of horses—Goblin went on. Andatum showed him an open way through— a sort of keyhole, roofed with a single great boulder which hung on slight unevenness on the side walls. Be­ yond, Goblin glimpsed blue sky and green grass. Galloping through, he came out into brilliant sunlight and a far vista of valley and mountain. Goblin had found his way into the crater of an extinct volcano. Twq miles or more across and of an ir­ regular oblong shape, the valley wa( belly-deep in the finest mountain grass. Here and there, rocky ot tree-covered hills rose from the vat ley floor, reaching as high as th| jagged and perpendicular cliff whic| ringed it and shut it in.

Lesson for October 28 Lesson subjects and Scriptura texts se­lected and copyrighted by InternaUonal Council of ReIfgious Education; used by permission- TEMPERANCE BEGINS AT HOME LESSON TEXT—n Timothy 1:14; 3:14-11: Titus 2:1-4.11,12.GOLDEN TEXT-As tor me and my bouse, we will serve tbe Lord--Josbua Z4; 15. The influence of the home on the character of a child is the strongest factor in the development of high and holy standards in the life of the man and woman. “Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Prov. 22:6). Emphasis is placed on temper­ ance in our lesson, and it is clear that in the home real temperance principles may be built into the thinking of boys and girls. It is not easy for a young person who has been brought up right on this matter to go astray, no matter how severe the temptation. I, Oor Fam ily Is God’s Gift (II Tim. 1:1-5). Paul, the apostle of Christ, ad­ dressed his son in the faith, Timo­ thy, with affection and appreciation. 'He knew the good which was in this fine young man and saw the possi­ bilities for service for God. He knew that as the background of that faith, there was a godly line of ancestors, those’ with an “un­ feigned faith." This young man, so precious to Paul and so successful in the ministry, owed a deep and abid­ ing debt of-gratitude to these godly women who had directed his steps aright, who had instructed and en­ couraged him in the right way. Let those who are young recognize parents and grandparents who ad­ monish and instruct them as God’s gift. Let them not regard them as those who would restrict or restrain them unduly, but who for their own good and the glory of the Lord teach them the way to God. n. Our Faith in God’s Guidance (H Tim. 1:6; 3:14, 15). The gift of God for preaching which Timothy had was recognized by the church, and he was sent forth to proclaim the gospel. But alas! the burdens of life and the pressure of service cause a man to forget or neglect his calling so there comes often the need of stirring up the gift of the Lord.God gave it. He will bless us as we use it to its fullest possible ex­ tent. He wants us too, to stir it up —this blessed, divine gift and call­ ing. The admonition (v, 14) is to “con­ tinue” in that which was learned, to rejrnain true to the Word of God. We show our faith in His guiding hand, as .we resist by His grace, the ever-present temptation to get away from the only true founda­ tion of a life of usefulness and joy. What we have learned as children we should hold fast in spite of all the devices of Satan and every weak­ ness of the flesh. Stand fast in the faith! III. Our Fellowship in God’s Gos­ pel (Titus 2:1-4). Old and young are to be united in a-great communion of believers pro­ claiming the gospel of God’s grace by a living testimony, by a life de­ voted to the things of God.Sotntd doctrine is the only source of sound living. To be “sound” means to be healthy, vigorous, free from defects, suited to a purpose. That means that everyday Christian living must express the vigorous soundness of the gospel. Men and women are to be “tem­ perate,” not given to excess, and particularly in mind here is the use of intoxicants. To be temperate in such a day and land as ours can mean only one thing, and that is to abstain altogether. Christians ought to keep entirely away from intoxi­ cants, and that includes beer and wine. There is a positive side to the ad­monition, for soundness of life and faith shows itself in holy living, love, patience, the teaching of God’s Word, and in fine fellowship among the people of God. We need to stress that side of the teaching of this passage. IV. Our Faithfulness by God’s Grace (w. 11, 12). God’s grace has brought salvation to man through Jesus Christ' and His atoning death on the cross. That grace calls for and calls forth from the believer a renouncing of that which is ungodly and lustful (and you can put intoxicants right in there!) and a determination to live right in faithful devotion to God. That brings about right relation­ ships to self, to others, and to God. The Christian is sober and self-con­ trolled as to anything which could “intoxicate’ him, whether it be liquor, or lust, or pride, or any other such thing. He also shows that grace of God before men in a life of righteousness. Then he finds his true place in a reverent devotion to God which makes him a worshiper “in spirit and in truth: for the Fa­ ther seeketh such to worship him” (John 4:23). Faithfulness to our Lord will count more than our words in the great battle against intemperance. Let us stand true to Him and keep our wit­ ness dear and strong!___ V W T t R M Q M E M S w M , fresh EvereadY Batteries s m i S B JJxJiL /■ tlHey, I said send vp some quinine, nof K-9!"

OCTOBER 24.1945 PO ST-W AR FLYING IN YO UR HOME TOW N By C. C. CAMPBELL, A ^ ^ X .M n ,Z tS 'a. ; Post-War Flying Previewed : More than five million people, in­ cluding folks from practically every itown and community in the country, have become “inoculated” with the idea of flying. These in turn will probably influence thousands of others within a few years. “ There is little time to lose. Amer­ ican communities must get ready and plan nojjv for this coming nationwide interest in personal flying.”Thus warns Wtt- Wm. A. Burden nam a. M. Burden, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Air. To indicate that the five million estimate of fly­ ing enthusiasts may be conserva­ tive, Mr. Burden offers the follow­ing figures: More than 300,000 pilots in uniform and 150,000 others in civiliah life will want to continue to fly. Then there are two and a half million men trained by the armed forces in oth­ er aviation skills; two million more —men and women—who are work­ ing in the aviation industry; 250,000 ■youngsters who are taking aerial courses in high schools each year. While there are only approxi­mately 25,000 civilian aircraft in the United States today, he predicts that there will be 400,000 civil airplanes in this country within ten years after the end of the war. The national significance of this cannot be overlooked, but the real success of personal flying in the ac­ tive peacetime world of tomorrow will depend directly upon each ol our 16,752 communities, aviation au­thorities point out. Just as the automobile could not become generally useful to every American who wanted to own or drive one until good roads were built, so personal flying will be grounded until suitable landing fa­cilities are available everywhere. Planes in the air can land in safety only on level, prepared surfaces. Planes on the ground need smooth runways and space to “take-off.” However, these facilities need no\ be extensive or costly, many commu­ nities are now finding out. With the advice of both Federal and State aviation groups, as well as non­ government aviation organizations such as the Personal Aircraft Coun cil of the Aircraft Industries Asso­ciation oJE America, Inc., Washing' ton, D.-C., plans are under way in many sections of the country for the construction of inexpensive airparks, flight-stops and air harbors. These are fitted to the size and needs of ttie individual community and usually can be expanded later if conditions warrant. ‘What seems to be more to the point, many town officials expect that their proposed landing facilities will become income producers ant perhaps pay off the costs of con struction and operation in tirre. They feel that the development of community personal flying maj prove to be good business in more ways than one.

Magazine pictures and news reels have shown most of the world’s civilized people what happens In Manhattan when the King of England calls on a good­ will mission or when Tail-wind-in- face Douglas Corrigan comes home. But now I can boast that I saw Gotham’s wildest riot of joy. Ja­ pan’s surrender touched off the big­ gest of them all. I was having what we Southerners call supper in the dining room of a mid-town hotel at 7 o’clock p. m. EWT, on August 14 when Washing­ton released the official announce­ ment. There was just one breath of unusual quiet before bedlam bore down. How long does it take a cab driver to reach his siren after his radio brings big news? That’s how long the quiet lasted. People seemed to go wild. Clamorous Jumble Human voices could be distin­ guished at first along with the mechanical din, but presently very little was distinguishable except by sight. Bent on seeing, however, I quit the hotel and walked west with the traffic which I later learned was storming from all directions toward Times Square. I never got much closer than five blocks to the focal point It was too dense for me at 47th street and Fifth avenue. Women leaned out of skyscraper windows, shrieked and emptied wastepaper baskets. Down like a gray snow came shredded news­ print, yards of new wrapping pa­ per, good stationery—and it didn’t stop until Fifth avenue was literally carpeted. Air borne ribbons of tick­ er-tape crawled in and out among file towers like mysterious aerial serpents. Busses and cabs were jammed with people in hysterical celebration, hours on end. At Oie Bright Lights An officially estimated two million men and women made up a seething mass that centered at 42nd street and Broadway, and one idea seemed to dominate them completely: “War’* over I" . . . The words were shouted repeatedly in every dialect with which I have any acquaintance, and undoubtedly many more. The emotion of the multitude said, "Now, everything’s going to be all right.” But, now that the shouting is over, what are the facts? They are far from file thoughts of any tumult._ Firing has ceased. Factories that made war goods are closed down. Families are waiting for young men to come home. For the next 14 months military authorities will re­ turn the equivalent of one combat division, 15,000 men, to civil life •very day. Onr Gravest NeedTo live contentedly men must have good jobs and hope of advance­ ment. Jobs for men call for invest­ ments, on the average, $6,000 per job. Not much has been done to encourage Investment lately; much has been done to discourage it. War is over but war taxes and regula­ tions remain. Wisely imposed to take the profit out of war they threaten now to take the prosperity out of peace. American efficiency produced the goods that made victory possible. The war did not put our Republic to its supreme test; the peace will. America’s trail to a prosperous post­ war period has not been well blazed. With growing intensity we are need­ ing something sorely and need it now in a hurry: Tht right toxei for (Ike most jobs.

Vhat Wat Happening In Davie Before The New Deal Used Up The Alphabet, Drowned The H tp and Plowed Up The Cotton and Corn. (Davie Record, Oct. 29, 1919) Lint cotton is 36 cents. Thete are three or four cases of diphtheria in town. Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Ketchie, of Kappa, were in town today. Miss Bertha Lee and Mrs. Liz­ zie Tomlinson spent yesterday in Jhe Twin-City. A. L. Sain, of Winston-Salem, was rambling around town yestes day. Mr. und Mrs. William Powell, of R. 5, returned Monday from a short visit to Winston-Salem. Attorneys E. L. Gaither and A. T. Grant spent a day or two last • week in Raleigh on business. Miss Alverta Hunt returned Saturday from a visit to friends at Wallburgand Winston-Salem. Misses Zannie and Thelma Hen­ dricks, of Advance, spent die week end in town with friends. Mrs. J. C. Sanford, who has been spending some time here with relatives, returned to het home at Roper this afternoon. Attorney E. L. Gaither left to­ day 'for Raleigh to attend the Presbyterian Synod which '’con­ vened there yssterday. G. M. Hammer, who had his arm badly mangled in a cotton gin two weeks ago, is getting along fine, his friends will' be glad to learn. Mrs. B. F. Hooper and Miss Dorothy Gaither spent Wednes­ day in die Twin-City shopping. Rev. Dwight Brown, of Bel- wood, spent yesterday and today widi his parenss near town. He was on his way home from the Methodist Conference, G, P. White, who holds a posit­ ion with the Government at Nor­ folk, spent several days with home folks near Cana this week. He returned to Norfolk today. M t. and Mrs. W. A. Kerr and children, of Hickory, arrived here Thursday. They will scop with Mrs. John Cauble until the Clem­ ent house on Salisbury street is readv for occupancy. R. B., H. A. and J. C. Sanford have purchased the furniture fac­ tory property. This is a good lo­ cation for a hosiery mill and we hope these enterprising citizens will establish such an enterprise here. Rev. and Mrs. H. T. Penry and litde son, of Grassy Creek, are vis­ iting relatives and friends in and around town. Mr. Penry it as­ sisting Rev. Floyd Fry in a meet­ ing at Cavalary Baptist church, near Salitbury. J. B. Cook, of The Balls, Va., arrived Saturday to spend a few days with relatives and friends in Clarksville township. Mr. Cook had the misfortune to break his arm about three weeks ago.

Hlddenite. N. C. In his manhood fine and youthful, When it seems that he should live, That he might uplift his fellows, Or to loved ones comfort give, This brave hero of our nation, With his comrade by his side, Fell upon the field of battle Where he suffered, bled and died. In his pocket was his Bible That he carriee, day by day, From the time he left tke home- land Till he fell so far away, Thus revealing faith most won- rdrous In our God who loves His own, Leading them along life’s pathway Till they’re gathered ’round His ■ throne. Tis most blessed te remember One of faith and love and truth Who was kinn to friends and parents In- his childhood and his youth; Who has left behind a record That is noble*and sublime, ' Which shall live to bless his coun­ try Out across the years of time. May some gende hand like moth­ er’s Plant a flower on his grave, And may Jesus, in His mercy, Many of his comrads save, That some day there’ll be a meet­ ing Jn die home beyond the sky, Where our loved ones and God’s heroes Never, never more shall die. To his father and his mother, And his dear friend, Clyde D. Lee, And to other friends and neigh* bors We extend our sympafhy, Praying that they may look up­ ward To our father and our God, And like this dear son andbrothe, Walk the path that Jesus trod. James Elmer Beasley was killed in action in Germany on March 2,1945. By request of his very dear friend, Clyde D. Lee, we have written this poem which we most heartily dedicate to die bereaved parents of Mr. Beasley, also to Mr. Lee. In a letter to me Mr. Lee said: <:I don’t have a brother, so he seemed like a brother to me. I first met him in 1939, and many were the hours we haye spent to­ gether. Now he is gone and I feel very sad. His parents have lost a dear son and I have lost a friend. I trust to meet him in the land beyond the blue. I pray to God that some one, as he pass­ es by, will think of die boy and plant some flowers on his grave.” The writer not only extends his sympathy to the parents of this beloved son, and to his close friend, Mr. Lee, but we likewise extend our sympathy Co thousands of others who lost sons, friends, husbands, fathers, sweethearts and neighbors in this grear war.—The Author. T o O a r M erch a n ts The good merchant is not always appreciated for bis full value. Be­ cause be charges for his goods and hustles for business, be may be re- gsrded as merely another money grabber. But suppose he wasn’t there! We would miss the conven­ ience- of finding him always ready to supply, at the time we want them, the goods we need? He fi­ gures ahead, when we will be call­ ing for any product, and when the time comes ^e bas it on hand for ns. This is a service to onr way of liv­ ing. The good merchant deserves (be good will of all of Os, —Ex. It C o n cern s U s A U Tbe American public generally seems to be manifesting little Inter est in the negotiations now under way In Washington for the loan of many billions of dollars by the United States Government to Great Britain, Russia and other Allied counties. But this public is conscious of the great caution being exercited by congressional leaders in their endeavor tn revise the Federal tax bureau slightly downward, and it is very much aware of the fact that a uew war or Victory Loan drive is about to get under wav. AU thtse factors are interlated. Britain; Russia and China want monetary help from the United States, hut they cannot get it as cash from the till, for it is not there in the real sense that the Govern- ernment has any surplus. Qnite the contrary is true, for the Feder­ al Government now has an out­ standing debt several times larger than any other public debt in its history. So it is clear that the money we lend—or give—to other countries must be monev that the Goveryment bas horrowed from the American people—money that it has raised through was and victory bond campaigns and money obtain­ ed from banks, business houses and individual investors through the sale of other Government securities. » As The Raleigh News and Ob­ server points out. loans made by the Government to other countries in the World War I peried amount, ed merely to gifts, for the money was never paid back Bnt there is much suffering, such a great a great r.nd desoerlte human need, in various war town rounties today that the American people should not hesitate to give an agree for their Government to give much for the purpose of restoration of and habilitinn In these lands. But here is the point—shall we give freely and directly to the coun­ tries which need help and fix it so that we know that the funds we give are actually used for relief and recovery purposes—or shall we di­ vert our funds into socalled loans to Britian and other countries, funds Which may be used actually to build up the armanents of those countries, and which, as likely' as not will be repaid? We1 tbe American taxpayers, must foot the bill. Whatever is given either directly or through un­ repaid loans, most come out of our pockets Henee, we, the members the members of the public, have the right to determine how the gift, monev is to be expanded. It is possible that to tide some of the Allied countries over in the straightening out of their economy, the United States v/onld be justified in making loans of reasonable size. But if this is done care should be taken to see to it that these are loans, not gifts. Whatever America gives should be expended for hu­ manitarian nnrposss only, and not to subsidize armies and natives that someday be turued against us, or to perpetuate colonial system whicb have become anachronisms in the society of the modem world.— Winston Sentinel.

R eo r g a n iz a tio n o f T h e G o y ern m en t The need for reorganization and simplification of government agen. cies now under consideration in Congress, becomes more apparent a3 one surveys tbe maze of bureaus that have branched out in Wash ington until they constitute a Iabv rintb through, which few in search of aid or infoimation can grope thelt way. Dnring the course of a House de bate,. Congressman Henry points out that there are, for instance, 34 different Federal agencies which deal in the acquisition of land Twenty-nine are vested with an* thority to lend government fnnds, Taere are 75 lederal Government agencies engaged in the Peld ot transportatiou, sixteen have to do with the preservation of wildlife, twenty-eight deal with public wel­ fare matters, home and community planning is divided amongst 12 de­ partments, government construc­ tion is handled by io, while mater­ ials of construction are handled by ten others. Fourteen are actually concerned with forestry matters, nine credit and finance, three that insure deposits and loans and four that examine banks. At least fifteen departments have something to do with housing pro­ jects financed in whole or in part by Federal funds, eight depart ments and agencies mix with labor relations. Government records.” Mr Hen­ ry says, “reveal that in 1932 there were, in round numbers, 590,000 civilian employees on the Federal pay rolls. You will remember that that the situation so amazed Candi­ date Franklin D. Roosevelt that he campaigned for the Presidency— and successfully too—with the pro. tnise that, if elected, he would cut all boards, bureaus and commis sions 25 per cent.” What happened is that in 12- years interim the number of civil ian federal employees has rised to 3.667 861. It should not be over­ looked, however that many of them are war workers, actunlly em played in government owned and operated arsenals, shipyards and tbe like, working for the Army and Navy as inspectors, field men, of­ fice workers, and so forth. But even Jiscounting the host of feder al workers necessitated by tbe war, government payrolls have swollen to enormous proportions, and the Comptroller General, a North Ca' rolinlan and one of the most con­ scientious men in Federal service, attributes much of this job infla­ tion on duplication, and ineficient organization. America’s taxpayers can be sav ed untold millions of dollars each year by a businesslike reorganiza. tion of Federal departments, bu reaus, agencies, commisions and other subdivisions, but such re-or. ganization must really be business, like and divorced from all-barrel considerations. Congress can do its constituency no greater service at this time than to pass an ade quate measure to bring about this much-needed reform, and let tbe axe fall where it may.—Statesville D a ily .______________ L o w P r ic e d C ars Detroit—Detroit motor car man­ ufacturers are engaged in a hot race for the low-priced car market; with General Motors alcine setting aside $50,000,000 for research and engineering. ^ S o ic r WarBond Investment Ms Your Mnvestmeni MnAmeriea * * * S ta sse n F o r P r e sid e n t Caotain Harold E. Stassed is get ting out of the navy soon and is going back into the political wars with a nation wide speaking cam­ paign. Friends of the former Mirine-otn governor, who expects to be in mufti before December 15, say in Washington that Stassen is a defi­ nite, if unannounced, candidate for the Republican nomination in 1948 . Unless he changes his p'ans, they they said he will not seek any pub­ lic office in the meantime. He re signed as governor to enter the navy where he served as fiag secretary to Adm William Halsey, common, ner of the Third Fleet. Stassen apparently plans to take an active part in Republican poli tics in his own state aud national­ ly. In Minnesota, he reportedly will suoport another candidate in the primaries against Senator but will not hims-lf be an aspirant. Nationally Stassen plans to lay out a program in a series of speech, es he will make between now and conventio' time in, 1948 . He hopes also to build <p support within tbe Darty for what now seems to be an uphill battle for the piesideutial no mination The prospective candidate ap­ parently figures that by stating tbe issues he can keep himself in the public-eye and build up support a- mong the younger and less tradi­ tion-minded elements of tbe Repub lican party. He is counting heavi­ ly on the men and women who are coming out of the armed forces to rally around him Because his views on iutesnation- al affairs are pretty widely known. Stassen plans to devote much of bis speaking time to domestic issues Before be wegt in the navy he was in the forefront ot those who urged all-out international co operation to preserve future peaace.

HES-ALLEN’S HUSBAND SIVES HER A SURPRISE WEST MONROE, LA.—Mrs. Carl Si Alien of. West Monroe, Louisi- am;has an interesting story to tell about how she discovered Fault- Stss Starch. Here is what she wrote: “Last week ,my husband brought home a box of Fault­ less Starch. I decided to use 3, thinking that all starches were about the same. Toucan Smagine my surprise when I Iegan ironing. My iron fairly lew and I was finished in no time. My clothes - were so !eighty with no rough starch Botches to mar their sleek­ness. I felt I just had to tell jouhow wonderful your^tarch is. My husband was just as proud, as I when he saw his shirts: I wish all women could just try your product.” Now Uiere is a thoughtful hus­ band: That box/ of Faultless Starch really meant more to Mrs. AtTcn than a box of candy—and Siere is why: SdVE 468 MINUTES A TEAR Let’s say it takes ten minutes to asake hot starch when you have to cook it and stir it over a hot stove. But you can make hot Faultless Starch in a minute. That means yco save cine minutes each time you make it. If you wash only once a week, in one year you would save 468 minutes, or seven hours and forty minutes. Would you rather have a box of candy or a box cd starch that saved you bet­ ter than seven hours a year? SAVE 26 HOURS A TEAR And that isn’t all!. Many people Sell us that Faultless Starch makes SI possible to save half their iron- Isg time; Let’s be conservative and say that Faultless Starch wiigbt save you half an hour each woning day. In a year you would save twenty-six hours of hard iron­ ing’time! Which is best—a box of oandyor a box of Faultless Starch? Whygo on starching and ironing Rie hard way when you can do it the easy way with Faultless Starch. Qr.. better still, ask your grocer ter- a box today. Tou deserve Kaultless Starch, too.—Adv.

It doesn’t have to be birth­day time to cele­ brate, because parties for the younger set are fun 'to have, and essential for de­ veloping social poise. Parties like this are easy on moth­er because refreshments must nec­ essarily be simple. A little imagi­ nation and flair for decoration will do the rest. Good wholesome food prepared at­ tractively will go a long way toward satisfying the little guests. Add a few gay tablecloths and napkins, 'some easy but exciting games and you have all the ingredients for a successful party. If you are serving sandwiches, cut them inie shapes with animal cut­ ters. A cool glass of milk, or hot chocolate with a frothy blob of ',whipped cream—-now returned to the ; grocery shelves—will bring forth !cheers from Jimmy’s or Joan’s friends. The favorite dessert is cake or cookies with ice cream of course! Anything you can do to make this !latter party fled will all be on the ;credit side of the party. Now that cheese and meat are easier to obtain, you can again have fun with sandwiches. Not too much seasoning, though, because young­ sters’ stomachs are sensitive. Here are some good suggestions: Bologna Filling.(Makes 15 to 20 sandwiches) I pound bologna Yt cup chopped pickles or relish I cup mayonnaise I tablespoon minced onion Dash of tabasco sauce3 bard-cooked eggs ’ Yt teaspoon salt I cqi ground raw carrots 14 cup chopped celery Grind bologna and mix thorough­ ly with relish, mayonnaise, onion mid sauce. Divide in half and to one part add 3 hard-cooked eggs, chopped, and Vt teaspoon salt. To the other half add the carrots and celery. Deviled Egg Filling. 4 hard-cooked eggs Yt teaspoon salt Vs teaspoon pepper Ys teaspoon dry mustard 4 teaspoons vinegar I tablespoon chopped parsley 4 tablespoons mayonnaise Chop the eggs fine. Add other in­gredients and mix well. Deviled Cheese Filling. Vt pound mild cream cheese I small onion 3 canned pimientoes or chopped green or red peppers 3 hard-cooked eggs, chopped H teaspoon salt Yt teaspoon paprika 4 tablespoons mayonnaise Lynn Says: Don’t Ration Eye Appeal: Foods that look their best usually taste the best, too, because they’ve been cooked and served properly. When garnishing daily dinner and luncheon platters, simplici­ ty is the theme. A few freshened carrot tops, lettuce leaves, strips of green pepper or tomato wedges make the difference between the family's liking the food and mere­ly eating it quietly. Candles, simple flowers or a bowl of fruit add to the table im­ mensely. They even seem to make the food more palatable.Serve meat balls and chops on a bed of watercress and watch the difference. Or, cut grapefruit rind into- fancy shapes with a cutter and set them against a background of green.

Blend in milk,; cheese, pepper and pimiento. Add: eggs and spaghetti. Pour into a greased baking dish, and bake 35 minutes in a moderate (325-de­ gree) oven. Turn onto a hot serv­ ing platter and garnish with chopped stuffed olives or pickles. Simple foods made to look pretty are a big hit at any party Snd doubly so if the foods are ice cream and cook­ ies. In this des­ sert to top off the festivities, a plain cookie forms the ruff of the clown’s suit, a ball of ice cream makes the head with raisin eyes and cherry nose and mouth. An inverted ice cream cone makes the clown’s hat. Ice Cream Clowns. (Serves 6) 6 large cookies I quart vanilla ice cream 6 cones Seedless raisins Candied or maraschino cherriesArrange cookies on a large plate. Li center of each place a ball of ice cream. Top each ice cream ball with an inverted ice cream cone. Decorate each ball with raisin eyes and cherry nose and mouth. Vegetable Dinner. Remove the leaves from the cauli­ flower and cut off any bruised or dirty spots. Place it, top downward, in a deep bowl of cold salted water and allow it to stay there about lmlf an hour to draw out dust and other impurities. Cook it whole in boil­ ing water, uncovered. Cook 15-25 minutes until tender. Add about % cup milk to the water in which it is boiled—it will keep the cauli­ flower white. Lift out the cauliflower carefully and allow it to drain in a warm place. Scrape the two small bunches of carrots, dice them and add them to briskly boiling water. Salt them and boil Ihem until tender—about 10-12 minutes.

The poor fellow writhed in the tor­ ments of an awakened and cruelly prodding conscience, but could not be induced to speak."Come on down, brother,” shout­ ed the pleading, perspiring preach­ er, "confess your sins.

TO-NifiH-TVAN Now that the Van Johnson hys­ teria is sweeping the country like the Sinatra tidal wave, we want to know the whys and wherefores. When people asked us what y o u s a w in Frankie to bring on the swoons and squeals, we could only shrug helplessly and say, “We, too.” Well, we’ve asked the 1,800 teenagers who act as “Hi Style Scouts” for Calling All Girls if they’re swooning over Van and why. Now, just let somebody ask us about this new crush and we’re ready with all the answers. “He looks like the boy next door— not like a movie glamour boy.” (Don’t you wish you lived on that girl’s block?) “The way he takes a girl in his arms and kisses her.” (Now we’re getting somewhere.) “His cute, squeaky voice.” (Well, what’s the matter with Mickey Mouse?) “His divine build, his boyish smile; his red hair.” (Three good reasons.) “He’s sweet and shy, when the occasion demands, he can be so-o-o masterful.” (Did you sit through his last picture three times just waiting for these “occasions”?) “He doesn’t act as if be were act­ ing.” (Then what does M.G.M. pay him for, anyway?) ‘‘Are you kidding? He’s positive­ ly gorgeous.” (That seems to sum up the whole situation.)* DAFFYNITIONS WARRIOR—A gal who uses too much dazzle dust and pucker paint. IT PUCKERS M E -It makes me mad.

Answer: “Reoccurrence” is not incorrect, but it is somewhat re­ dundant. The better form is: re­ currence. «_ Lynn: Please -discuss pronuncia­ tion and origin of “debacle.” It is often pronounced “DEB-uMt’l.”— M. Q. Answer: First choice: dee-BAH- k’l. Second choice: dee-BAK-’l. The word is from the French. In both French and English, debacle has the curious literal meaning, “the break­ up of ice,” as in a river. *_ Savannah: What authority is there for the pronunciation “crick” for the word “creek”?—M. A. R. Answer: It’s dialectal. Creek should rhyme with “Greek.” *_ Oklahoma City: Please, what is the plural of the word "corps” ? Is it “corpses”?—J. L. Answer: Sorry, no. “Corpses” is the plural of “corpse.” The word corps is both singular and plural. Correct: He joined the Marine Corps. There were several tank corps in .the battle. *_ Detroit: Please distinguish be­ tween “sewerage” and “sewage.”— 0. G. T. Answer: Sewerage is the act of or system for disposing of waste matter. Sewage is the waste m at­ ter carried off by the sewerage sys­ tem. ,_ Beaumont: Your recent article, “Oh, Those Adverbs!” reminds me that it can happen in the best of families. Even Browning wrote: "And yonder soft phial, the ex­ quisite blue, Sure to taste sweetly—is that poison too? Answer: It’s poisonous English. The rule is: After look, sound, taste, smell, feel, use an adjective. ■’ Correct: Sure to taste sweet. Don’t feel bad about it. It sounds loud.' It smells good. She looks ill.

E x p e rts S tu d y Z o o B e a r Summer Appears to Change Nature of the Beast Into Dangerous Animal. CHICAGO.—What is it about sum­mertime that turns the friendly bear into a growling killer is perplexing the minds of zoo officials here, says the Herald American.They were trying to probe into the “personality” of the beast to see whether it was fundamentally a fun- loving pet or a dangerous animal. A big, lumbering clown of the ani­ mal kingdom, a Tibetan bear, has proved that in the hot weather it is more treacherous than a snake, more ferocious than a tiger, and not to be trusted even by the keeper who has fed and kept it for many years. In its cage at Lincoln Park zoo it went berserk, mangling and chew­ ing the arms of a veteran attendant, Anton Rauch, 59, who had entered the cage to clean it. Rauch later died in the hospital.Rauch’s screams attracted Park Policeman John Lanning, who en-. tered the barred enclosure armed with a sawed-off shotgun. The big bear dropped the limp form of Rauch and lunged for the policeman only to be felled by three shots. Both Rauch’s arms had been chewed and the right one had been torn into shreds. No DifBculty Before.' In 30 years at the zocCRauch had never had the slightest difficulty with the animals, and had come to trust many of the inmates of the bear cages, which Rauch had helped build himself. Rauch’s experience emphasizes that the bear is even more of a potential kiUer than the tiger or lion. It also serves as a warning that the summer season, which means in­ creased attendance at zoos and cir­ cuses, is always a bad time to let down the bars of safety when it comes to dealing with them.In a search through newspaper files of several years, it was found that the increased excitement of crowds seems to irritate the big ani­mals and change their normal de­ sire for fun into a mad fury of murder. It was on July 17, 1944, when Catherine Searles, 25, a New York socialite and daughter of a wealthy zinc manufacturer, went to see the bears at Central Park zoo following a night club party. According to the police, Miss Searles climbed over a three-foot guard rail and waved a handker­ chief through the steel bars of a cage. The beast grabbed her arm and gnawed it from finger tips to elbow. Bear Breaks Loose. It was on August 5, some years ago, when a ferocious grizzly broke from a steel-barred cage in High­ land Park zoo in Pittsburgh and spread terror through the adjoining residential district, before being shot and killed. She attacked Zoo Superintendent Arnold Schaummann on sight. Schaummann, armed with a shot­ gun, shot the beast as it roared at him, dropping the animal eight feet away. In almost exactly similar circum­ stances as the Lincoln Park maul­ing, Thomas Earl, 56, keeper at Cleveland’s Brookside zoo, was ripped to death on July 8, 1932. Earl, unarmed, went into the bearpen with a breakfast of raw meat, bread and carrots for “Sun­ shine,” a 900-pound beast named for his usually even temper.The animal rose up suddenly, en­ circled Earl’s shoulders with one paw and began clawing at him with the other. Other workers failed to drive the beast off by poking at him with rakes, and jt finally took 10 rifle shots to kill him. Earl was dead. Turtle Has Neck Trouble; Operation Yields Cyst SAN FRANCISCO. — Napoleon, the turtle, stuck his neck out here for a tonsillectomy. There was danger that the big green reptile at San Francisco’s Steinhart aquarium would become but a hollow shell, for every time he stuck his neck out he got a lump in it and couldn’t eat. He shriveled up between decks to a scant 58 pounds, so Dr. Wilbert Chapman, curator of fishes for the California Academy of Sciences, or­ dered an operation. A few swift incisions, a tied ar­tery and the whole thing was over in 15 minutes. Napoleon showed signs of immediate recovery. The tonsillectomy, not the turtle, was mock. The “surgeons” got cred­ it for a cyst. Private Soldier Wins Pass and a Promotion SHEPPARD FIELD, TEXAS. — Pfc. Robert L. Hall, Memphis, Tenn., was booked for a three-day pass —and wound up with a promotion. It all happened because the pri­ vate was tempted by the suggestion of a three-day pass for ideas in .a conservation program while sta­ tioned at Craig field, Selma, Ala. Hall submitted a device for preven­tion of battery acid overflow. Now a letter has arrived from Washington headquarters granting authority to promote the aviation student to corporaL TUCSON, ARIZ.-A query Irom a Wisconsin newspaper brought to Mrs. Scott Marie Dyer the first word that a veteran of World War I she befriended 22 years ago at Chicago intended to remember her in his will. Word was brought to Mrs. Dyer by reporters as she sat outside her small home about eight miles from Tucson. The soldier, Capt. Victor 1S. Byrne, started the search by a message to the Wisconsin police ask­ ing assistance in locating the Dyer family.Chief of Police Hcirry Mueller of Fort Atkinson, Wis., said he had re-' ceived a telegram from Captain Byroe of Los Angeles asking the whereabouts of Mrs. Dyer, a former resident of Fort Atkinson. The tele­ gram said:“I am very ill and may not live many months. I wish to leave Marie Dyer my entire estate for her kind­ ness toward me when I was a poor discharged soldier in Chicago. Now, I am a very wealthy man.” Mueller said that he had wired the information to Byrne and had re­ ceived a reply thanking him and saying that the sender of the mes­ sage planned to communicate with Mrs. Dyer soon.Mrs. Dyer, wife of an electrician, filled in these details:The friendship started in Chicago in 1923 when Captain Byrne, unem­ ployed, met Mrs. Dyer and lived with the family “quite a while.” “He always acted like one of us,” she said. “For several months after he left, he kept in touch with the family by mail, but when he moved to his pres­ ent residence in California, the con­ tact was broken.“This is the first news we have had of him since that time.” The Dyers moved to Arizona in 1941. Gets Sweet Revenge; Bass Hoofe Angler SPOKANE, WASH County Assessor Don H. Thompson was hooked by a fish. Thompson, related that he hooked a - two-pound bass, and suddenly he found the situation reversed and the bass had him hooked. The fish bit his thumb, sinking the hook in so deeply that a doctor had to remove it. W ill B e R e w a rd e d 4 F o r H e r K in d n ess To Get Estate of Soldier Slhe Befriended, Baby’s Face of Future Is Fixed at Four Days CHICAGO. — The facial outlines that a four-day-old baby will have when he grows up can be predicted, through X-ray studies of head growth at the University of Illinois college of dentistry.The X-rays have shown that the main proportions of the skeletal framework of the human head and face present at birth remain virtual­ ly unchanged throughout life. In fact, if growth rates could be predicted, it is possible that after an examination of such X-rays an artist could draw a fairly reliable sketch of the face of the future citizen at the age of 21. These studies of the head bones are made under the direction of Dr. Al­lan Brodie, dean of the college of dentistry and professor of orthodon­ tia.If the length of a four-year-old baby’s nose is 43 per cent of the distance from bridge of nose to tip of chin, that nose length will still be 43 per cent at age 65 or at any other time. The size of bumps on a head at birth remain in the same proportion throughout the life, as do the many contours and positions of all of the features that are fixed by bones. Martin Designs Plane To Lower Airline Fares BALTIMORE, MD,—The Glenn L. Martin Aircraft company, for years almost exclusively a producer of larger type war planes, announced plans for mass production of a 30- passenger, twin-engine commercial ship which “promises passenger fares lower than first class rail rates.”A full scale “mock-up” of the plane Was inspected by newsmen, who were told the mass production would begin immediately after the | initial demonstration flight of the first completed plane, required by the civil aeronautics administration. The plane, designed for operations on main domestic trunk lines, is a low wing monoplane with a cruising speed of nearly 300 miles an hour. It is expected to be especially good for ranges of 250 to 700 miles, where larger four-engine transports cannot be operated economically. Y a n k R escu e T e a m C u rsed a n d W ined B y J a p s in K o re a Allied Mercy Crew Has Odd Experience With Foe At Air Field. CHUNGKING, CHINA. — An Al­ lied mercy crew which landed at Keijo, Korea, in the midst of 50,000 Japanese soldiers was alternately cursed, threatened, wined and en­ tertained before it- took off again with 500 gallons of Japanese gaso­ line, a member of the party said recently.The mission of 22 Americans and Koreans landed at Keijo on a Sat­ urday. The Japanese refused to al­ low them to see Allied prisoners of war but, rather than intern them, gave them the 500 gallons of gaso­ line to return. OWI Correspondent- Henry R. Lieberman1 who accompanied the team, related the story. The team was led by Lt. Col. Willis H. Bird of Landsdowne, Pa. As the transport settled down on the Japanese air strip, high ranking Japanese officers, including one identified as Lt. Gen. Yoshio Kot- suki, commander of the enemy forces in Korea, approached. He re­ fused the request of the Americans to see Allied prisoners and also re­fused to give the names and nation­ alities of the prisoners. , Drinks, Songs—and Guns. The mercy team and the crew of the plane put up for the night be­ cause the Japanese commandant was unable to get enough gasoline for the C-47 to leave immediately. The Japanese meantime brought up two tanks and set up trench mor­ tars around the plane. A 37 milli­ meter cannon covered the party. During the night the Japanese en­tertained the Americans with beer, sake and Japanese songs. Flight Officer Edward McGee of Durant, Okla., commenting on the scene said: “If someone had told me two weeks ago I’d be in setup like this I would have turned him over to the loco ward.” Although the members of the team' were armed with ■ revolvers, tommy-guns and hand grenades just in case of trouble, Capt. Patrick Teel of New York City, who was with the first Ranger battalion at Anzio, said: “It’ll take just five minutes to make us all dead ducks.” The flight to Korea from Sian en­ tailed a journey of almost 1,000 miles over Japanese occupied terri­tory. As the plane got within 500 miles of Keijo the radio operator, Lt. Meredith L. Price of Charleston, W. Va., attempted to establish contact with the Japanese. “We are expecting you and we guarantee you safe conduct,” the Japanese said. When the plane landed, Maj. Gen. Junjiro Ihara, chief of staff for the Japanese forces in Korea, asked Col. Bird his mission. Just Looking Around. The American officer replied that he was in Korea “as the initial pre- Allied occupation representative to bring, whatever help is needed by Allied prisoners of war and to make preliminary arrangements for fu­ture evacuation in accordance with the terms of the peace negoti­ations.” “Then you’re not here to negotiate a surrender?” Ihara asked. , “No, our mission is purely humanitarian,” Bird replied. Ihara said that the prisoners were well and were being cared for, but that the party could not see them. During supper that night the Jap­ anese were quite convivial. After singing Japanese songs, tone asked, “What is the American air force song?” Led by Capt. John Wagoner of the air transport command, from Grand Island, Neb., the Americans let loose with the chorus of “Off we go into the wild blue yonder.”The Japanese beamed and beat time on the table with their fingers. After the Americans finished, the. Japanese sang their air force- song, “The Fighting Wing.”The next day the atmosphere be­ came tense again. When Bird asked a Japanese officer to sign a note saying the mission had arrived but was refused permission to act, the major swore and made stinging ref­ erences to “inferior persons.”Shortly afterward the guard around the plane was,increased. The gasoline finally was poured into the big ship and the Americans and Koreans took off on the return flight.

W ro n g ed H u sb a n d , 17, S h o o ts R ivsd Killed Man Who Won Wife ‘Under My Nose.’ LOS ANGELES. — An outraged 17- year-old husband told police he shot and killed Harold Timothy Young, 30-year-old father of three children who wooed and won his wife away from him “under my very nose.” Leon Benon, 17, a warehouseman, was held on suspicion of murder. Deputy sheriff said he freely ad­ mitted shooting Young when he “found him making love to my wife.” Benon and his pretty 16-year-old wife, Lois Jean, celebrated their first wedding anniversary three days ago. Both are from Alpine, Texas, as is Young. Officers summoned to the Benon home by Francis Elgin Smith, 33- j ear-old baker, found Young’s body on the living room floor, his head and body riddled with rifle slugs. Benon and his wife were arrested at the home of his mother-in-law. “This fellow has been playing around with my wife for a couple of months,” Deputy Gordon Bow­ers quoted Benon as saying. “I fi­ nally said, ‘To hell with it’ and went for my gun.” The gun was found dismantled and tucked into a bedroom drawer at the Benon home, Bowers said. Smith told the most complete story of the tragic affair. He said he and Young and the Benons had re­ turned from a ride in Los Angeles and started talking in the living room. “Young said suddenly, Tm in love with Lois. I want her to go to Texas with me,’ ” Smith related, according to police. “Lois said she’d like to. Benon turned to her and said, ‘Do you love him?’ She said, ‘I think I do, I don’t know.’ ” “That got Benon. He jumped up, grabbed his gun and blazed away.” S c ie n c e S w e e te n s F u tu r e Sponges in Your Candy WASHINGTON. — Maybe your postwar candy bar will sound dif­ ferent. It may contain “starch sponges”—which are very crispy and crunchy. Don’t worry though—a starch sponge isn’t any relation to the porous swab you use to wash your car. It’s something stewed up in a test tube at the department of agricul­ ture’s northern regional research laboratory at Peoria, Hl., by a lady scientist named Majel M. McMas- ters. It’s made of corn and depart­ ment officials are pretty enthusias­ tic about its possibility as a food project. T. Swann Harding, editor of" the department’s house organ, “Usda,” gave the world its first notice that science is beating field corn into candy bars for the snack trade. “In its dry state,’-’ he reported, “the ground or shredded sponge, because of its crispiness, imparts crunchiness to confections or crackle-like wafers. “Shredded dry sponge also has properties similar to shredded coco­ nut or chopped nut meats. When finely ground, the material shows promise as a stabilizer in chocolate coatings and icings.” Malting it involves a lot of proc­ esses. The result is an extremely porous material with “very high cal­ orific value,” Harding says, and you know—crunchy. Commercial candymakers are def­ initely interested. Massachusetts Town Remembers First Banana WELLFLEET, MASS--This Cape Cod village is celebrating this year the 75th birthday of the banana. It was in 1870 that Capt. Lorenzo Dow Baker of the Wellfleet succeed­ ed in bringing a cargo of bananas to the United States from Jamaica, B. W. I. Previously all attempts to import the fruit had failed because the ba­ nanas spoiled during the long voy­ age from tropical climes. In that year, however, Baker made the trip from Jamaica to Massachusetts so quickly—U days—that the bananas arrived intact. Faithful Camel Loses Out-to Modern Motor Car LONDON.—At long last the faith­ ful camel is going the way of the horse as a beast of burden, accord­ ing to Col. W. F.

Back on his first leave in five years, Stirling said the automobile is taking the camel’s place on the desert. ‘•The bottom has dropped out of the camel market and they are be­ ing sold for meat now,” he said. M ost T k rillin g E x p lo it o f W a r W ins H ig h H o n o r Lone Yonk Officer Repulses Tank Attack Led by 250 Germans. WASHINGTON.—A young officer Who manned a machine gun atop a blazing abandoned tank destroyer and beat back a tank led assault by 250 Germans has been awarded the nation’s top decoration.He is First Lt. Audie L. Murphy, 21, of Farmersville, Texas, who won the Congressional Medal of Honor near Holtzwihr, France, last Janu­ ary 26. He was still a second lieu­ tenant and new to the command- of !his company in the third infantry division, says the Chicago Tribune. The citation accompanying the m edal, which was to be given to Murphy in Europe, credited him with killing or wounding 50 of the Germans with machine gun fire and with directing artillery fire earlier in the fighting which killed “many” !more. Some of Murphy’s buddies estimated that he accounted for 100 Nazis in the hour-long battle. Swept From Woods. Minphy was in front of his com­ pany when the two German infan­ try companies, paced by six heavy tanks, swept from a woods. He or­ dered his men to fall back to pre­ pared positions while he stayed at his advance post to call for artillery fire to smash the Germans in the open. He was alone except for a tree and the tank destroyer about 10 yards to his right.First Lt. Walter W. Weispfennig, an artillery officer of Fredonia, N. D., who witnessed the action, said later the artillery fire that Murphy directed “had a deadly effect.” “I saw Germans disappearing In clouds of dirt and snow,” he related.Then a German 88 mm. shell crashed into the tank destroyer and its crew bailed out, falling back to join the remainder of the company. Smoke and flames spurted from the destroyer. The German tank crews swung wide around it, fearing that its gasoline and ammunition would blow up.With the German infantry only 100 yards away, Murphy dashed over to the destroyer, climbed into the tur­ ret, and began blasting the Nazis with its .50 caliber machine gun. Weispfennig called it the “bravest thing I’ve ever seen a man do in combat,” adding: Exposed to Foe’s Fire. “He was completely exposed to the enemy fire and there was a blaze under him that threatened to blow the destroyer to bits. Machine gun, machine pistol, and 88 shellfire was all around him. “Twice the tank destroyer was hit by direct shellfire and Ueutenant Murphy was engulfed in smoke and flame. His clothing was riddled by flying fragments of shells and bits of rocks. I saw that his trouser leg was soaked with blood.” Twelve Germans tried to sneak up along a ditch and flank him but he swung the machine gun and killed all of them at a 50-yard range. The Nazi infantry was stalled. Without the infantry the enemy tanks couldn’t advance and the whole at­ tack collapsed.Murphy dropped wearily off the destroyer, all his ammunition gone, and limped back to his company. Refusing treatment, he reorganized his company and led it in an attack that routed the Germans. Murphy, a native of Farmersville, joined the army on his 18th birth­ day and fought throughout the Af­ rican, Sicilian, Italian and French campaigns. He has been wounded three times and wears the Purple Heart with two clusters. United States U-Boats Sank 1,256 Jap Ships WASHINGTON. — U. S. sub­ marines operating in far Eastern waters in the last three months of the war sank 69 enemy vessels, the navy announced recently, bringing to 1,256 the number of Japanese ships sunk by American underseas craft in the war. None of the sinkings in the last three months had been announced previously. The figures were com­piled from reports of submarines after their return from Pacific action. The latest bag included 20 Jap­ anese warships and 49 noncombat­ant-ships. 1 ::; The warships sunk were two Jap­ anese submarines, one mine-layer, two minesweepers, two large sub­ chasers, eight special sub-chasers, four coastal defense frigates, and one torpedo boat. ‘Jobs for AU’ Goal Seen In 150 Billion Income WASHINGTON.— Treaswy Secre­ tary Vinson told congress that a national income of 150 billion dollars will be needed to provide jobs for all who are willing and able to work.To assure employment for 60 mil­ lion people, purchasing power must be increased enough'to boost con­sumption 60 per cent and to expand construction and investment by 100 iper cent over prewar levels, Vinson said in a statement for the senate banking committee.Vinson endorsed the so-called “full employment” bill, which the com­ mittee is considering, but cautioned •that-“ultimate reliance for jobs must come from an expansion of private consumption and investments.” Tarragon Vinegar |Tarragon vinegar is a favorite h> dressing summer salads.

FEATURES’*-* CHAPTERS ' Goblin stood motionless, his eyes scanning the valley, his muzzle lift­ed to suck in and savor and read all the messages it flung at him. He knew much about it already. This was the country that had called him and he had answered the call. Those horses over there, the big, loosely- flung herd, grazing quietly, were the horses he had been hunting. Mares! His nostrils quivered. He neighed loudly. The mares raised their heads, the foals faced around. What magnificent animals — big, smooth, glossy—the very smell of them was sweet and strong with health and power. The mares were blacks and bays and sorrels, and the colts were the same, except for a few piebalds. Nickering, they lifted their heads and trotted toward the newcomer. Goblin rushed happily to meet them. He was at home with mares. Most of his life had been spent with them. They milled around him, thrilled and excited by the advent of a stranger. He lost all thought of fear or caution in the happiness of having arrived. He met and smelled and talked to them one by one. The squeals and whinnies, the jumps and snorts and playful kickings were all delightful fun. Some of them tried to drive the intruder out, but their bites and kicks were half­ hearted. On the stunmit of a near-by hill stood a great white stallion. He was upwind from his mares, which was fortunate for the Goblin. As it was, the Albino noticed the commotion in his harem and lifted his head to observe it. This animal stood sixteen and a half hands high. He was pure white. His body had power and strength rather than gracefulness. He was not smooth. He was gnarled like an old oak tree. His coat was marred by many scars. His great age showed in the hollows of his flanks and shoulders and face. Behind the dark glare of his eye, a blazing fire burned and on this flame was pro­ jected an irresistible will-power, and a personality that was like the core of a hurricane. He looked over his kingdom. He had stood there for years, looking over his kingdom. And—if horses think—wondering who would take over when his end came. He had oo heir. How could he have? He permitted no colt older than a year to remain in the band of mares, nor any stallion older than a two-year- old to be in the valley. Here and ■there, in the deep grass, were Uie polished bones of those who had challenged him. And if any attempt­ ed to return after he had driven them forth—they did not try a sec­ ond time. When Goblin caught the unmistak­ able strong scent of the stallion he trotted out from the herd to find him. He saw him up there on a hill—just where Banner would have been—and with a joyful nicker, started toward him. The Albino came down to meet him. Goblin, a creature of fire and mag­ netism himself, felt the oncoming stallion in terms of voltage, and it was almost too much to be borne. Goblin came to a stop. It occurred to him that he was going in the wrong direction. But he held his ground.Re watched. He had never seen or fet2 anything like that before. The stallion was so contained, his power was so gathered and held within him that he was all curves. His great neck was so arched that his chin was drawn in and under, the crest of his head was high and rounded with long ears cocked like spear- points. His face was terrifying— that ferocious egression! Those fiery eyes! And his huge, heavily- muscled legs curving high, flung for­ ward so that the great body floated through the air—then the massive hoofs striking and bounding up from the earth with sledge-hammer blows that made the hills tremble and echoed like thunder in the valley!The Goblin still held his ground. The Albino slowed his pace, came closer—stopped. Their noses were about two feet apart. For as long as a minute they faced and eyed each other. They were the same. Trunk and branch of the same tree. And from that confusing identity—each seeing himself as in a distorted mirror— there flamed terror and fury. No self-respecting stallion would deign to attack a mere yearling, or even to take him seriously enough to administer heavy punishment. But suddenly the Albino raised his right hoof and gave one terrible pawing ,stroke accompanied by a. short grunting screech of unearthly fury. An>l in so doing, he both acknowl-' edged and attempted to destroy his heir. The_ stroke was delivered with Ughteing speed. From his great height, if the blow had come down on Goblin’s head, as was intended, it would have killed him instantly. But Goblin was endowed with the same speed, and reflexes that acted quicker than thought. He swerved. The great hoof glanced down his neck, ripping the flesh at the shoul- cler, and sent him rolling. To complete the attack, the stal­lion dropped nose to earth, turned and lashed with hind feet to catch the body of the colt as he fell from the blow and finish him off. But the Goblin rolled too far and too fast, landed on his feet, and whirled to face his antagonist. The stallion plunged toward him— head stretched out like a lethal mis­ sile, the twisted mouth open and reaching to bite—the great teeth, like slabs of yellow stone—bared— and in the wild and terrible face, two eyes blazing like fire-opals. The Goblin whirled and streaked toward the band of mares. They were bunched, watching, fascinated. They opened their ranks and let him in. They scattered at the impact of the Albino's head-on rush. Goblin dodged. He felt the rake of the Al­bino’s teeth down his haunch—a chunk bitten out—he squealed and doubled behind another mare. The Albino’s charge knocked her off her feet and Goblin went down under her. He felt a burning pain in his The stroke was delivered with Hghtning -speed. ear and tore it loose. He was up again, shouldering into a group of mares and foals. When he came out the other side, the Albino had lost him for the moment. It was his chance. He ffed toward the keyhole in the rampart, Albino in thunder­ ing pursuit. Entering the passage­way, the Goblin followed the zigzag path which led through it, and here his smaller size gave him an ad­vantage. Emerging on the other side, the Albino was some distance behind, but still coming fast.It was a long chase. Goblin’s youth and his quickness at dodging and doubling-^and the cover given to him by the rocks and clumps of trees—saved him. Six miles down the river, he was alone at last, as the afternoon light be­gan to fade. He was limping from the painful wound in his shoulder. He carried his head on one side, fa­voring the torn ear, now and then giving it a little shake to shake the pain away, scattering drops of blood. He ached all over. To move, now that he had stopped running, was an agony. He stood under a tree, twisted and quivering. He ate nothing all night. The memory of all that had hap­ pened was graven in him. He faced the rampart, cocked his one good ear, turned his head until he caught the wind, and stood straining, listen­ ing, smelling, bringing to his con^ sciousness—almost as strongly as if he could see him—the terrible mon­ ster that had terrified and bested him. He had the impulse to neigh and challenge him—but not the strength nor the courage. Never mind—there would be another day. Wait. He had wounds to heal. Goblin grazed until he had filled his belly and renewed his strength, then took the way home.• • • Fortitude was demanded of Ken next day when Flicka went unex­ pectedly into labor and Rob said she was going to have a bad time and they would need the vet.Driving over to the telegraph sta­ tion with his mother, Ken’s face was white and furious. “God made the world, didn’t He?” he asked sud­denly. 'lWeUt I don’t think much of the way He made it. I could have done it better. I can think up aw­ ful nice Worlds.” Nell glanced down at him. What could she say?. Goblin—now Flicka— it was a pretty big dose of trouble for him. "Why do all the horrible things have to happen?" he asked passion­ately. She must answer him. “We can’t understand entirely, Ken—” “Why not?” “You can’t understand something that's so much bigger than you are. Not wholly understand. You can’t even who]# understand your father or me—only one side of us. And even less, your Heavenly Father, the Father of all of us. It would be as if a small circle, like a nut, could get outside a big circle, like an orange.” Ken was silent, composing ait im­ portant prayer. “Please God, make me have fortitude. And don’t let me lose my grip. But if you could man­ age it to have the Goblin come back, and Flicka get through, this foaling all right, that would be just keen. For Jesus Christ’s sake, Amen.” There was a flash of radiance on his face as he looked up at his mother. Arrived at the railroad station, Nell entered the telegraph office, and Ken stood listening to the mys­ terious dots and dashes which asked the telegraph agent at Laramife if he would be so kind as to do Captain McLaughlin of the Goose Bar. ranch a favor, and telephobe the veterina­ rian, Dr. Hicks, and find out if he could start to the ranch immediate­ly to deliver a foal? Within five minutes the message came back that Dr. Hicks would come. On the Goose Bar ranch the weather was hot—really hot—for only two or three weeks in midsum­mer. On this day the thermometer stood at a hundred and one with a burning, dry heat which lay on the land in shimmering waves, remind­er that it was not far removed from the deseTt. Inside the bam, in spite of wide open doors and windows, everyone was soaked with perspiration and Dr. Hicks had constantly to turn aside and shake the water from his forehead. Rob and the boys were naked from the waist up. Flicka, exhausted by hours of un­ availing labor, lay on her side. It was a dry birth. For a long time before the veterinarian’s arrival one of the foal’s forelegs had been pro-, truding. “Which means,” said Dr. Hicks when he arrived, “that the jjther leg is curled back and makes birth im-: possible. The foal is in the wrong po­sition, it will have to be straight­ ened out.” He asked for a gunny sack, cut holes in the corners for. his arms and one in the middle for. his head, removed shirt and under-', shirt, donned - the gunny sack,' greased his arm and went to work. Ken watched him, vowing to him­self that never again should Flicka be allowed to have another foal. The doctor puffed as, holding the tiny yellow foreleg, he slowly forced it back into the mare. Ken saw it vanish with a strange sensation. Could the foal still be alive after being handled like that? At length the doctor’s hand and wrist disap­ peared too, and Ken, watching his heavy brown face with its humor­ ous expression, as if at any moment he was going to crack a joke, tried to read on it just what was going on inside there. Lucky, thought he, that Doc was so big and husky. To be able to straighten out a foal inside of its mother took strength!While Doc worked he talked in short grunts. “This mare’ll never foal again—that infection she had when she was a yearling injured her —scar tissue—it’s a wonder she’s as good as she is. AU right for saddle —ah, there, I’ve got it now—” :“Got what?” breathed Ken. “The other hoof. Both of them. This isn’t going to be so bad, after all.” NeU was kneeling at Flicka’s head, sponging her face, and mouth with cold water. Now and then the mare gave a spasmodic heave. Presently Doc was pulling on something. Flicka groaned and la­ bored mightily. Ken groaned and strained too, but Howard watched every move.the doctor made, keenly interested. Two tiny hoofs and a muzzle appeared and the doctor got to his feet and mopped the sweat from his face. “She may be able to manage the rest herself now I’ve got it in the right position,” he said.But FUcka couldn’t. Most of her strengtti was gone and it seemed that something stiU impeded the de­ livery.McLaughlin looksd at his watch. “It’s been going on three hours now.” He and Doc talked together is low voices. It frightened Ken to hear them—so casual and fatalistic. Ken touched the protruding hoofs, Tiey were not hard yet and were covered with rubber-like pads. 6« tried to pull on them and was dumb* founded to find that it was like try­ ing to pull a bough from a tree. McLaughlin sent Gus for ropes. They tied a pope to the foal’s legs and Doc and his assistant put all their weight on it The foal moved a little, the head was nearly out. Then it stuck, and when they continued to puU the only result was that Flicka’s whole body sUd across the floor. They tied her forelegs to a post and pulled again. FUcka’s body stretched out straight and taught, ropes at each end of her, but the foal did not budge. (TO B E CONTINUED) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY ICHOOL L e sso n B y HAROLD L.

GOLDEN T E X T -B a kindly affectioned One to another . . . to honor preferring one another.—*Romans 12:10. The greatest and most important institution in the world is the Church. The home, which we have been studying in recent weeks, is the primary unit of society, but its relationships are primarUy of a personal nature. In the church there is an organized feUowship within a God-made institution, the Uving or­ ganism through which the Lord brings such blessing to the world —the Church. Here, in God’s house, Smong God’s people, the beUever finds strength and joy. The Lord’s people are: I. Different Tet United (vv. 3-8). God is not interested in uni­ formity, but He does want unity. In the Church are aU types of gifts and personalities, each one useful to God. He does not want them all re­ duced to that drab uniformity which characterizes so many man-made products. Prophecy, ministry, teaching, giving, ruling — yes, all the various works to which God calls men should be done diligently for His glory. No man is to think of him­ self as more or less useful to God. His work is different, but it is God’s work, and when aU serve as they should there is unity and efficiency in the accomplishing of His blessed purpose. The unity of believers in Christ (v. 5) is something which needs em­ phasis in our - day. The forces of Protestantism are so divided as to be largely ineffective in many im­ portant fields. Not only are they divided but there are almost endless divisions within denominations — yes, and even in local churches. Sometimes there are issues which cannot be met except by separation, but there are also many unnecessary divi­ sions, dishonoring to God and weak­ ening to the Church.Let’s remember we can be differ­ ent (God wants us to be!) but we can still be united! God wants that, too!H. Active Yet Kind (w. 9-11). God puts no premium on lazi­ ness or indifference. We are not to be “slothful,” but “fervent” in spir­ it. Sometimes one feels that the Church has gone sound asleep. It is alive but inactive.' It professes to have a zeal for God, but if there is any fervency of spirit, in most places it must be weU hidden. But that is not possible, is it? How much we need a stirring re­ vival in the Church to bring the people of God into active service for Him. U your church as a whole does not respond to the Lord’s Word, why do you not as an indi­ vidual ask God to rekindle His fire in your heart? There is to be a humifity (v. 10), a fine cleanness of thought and life (v. 9), an unfeigned love for the brethren (v. 9), along with aU the fervency of spirit and zeal for serv­ice. There is much talk of uniting Christendom and no Uttle danger of compromise for the sake of an out­ ward unity. Such schemes are des­ tined to failure, but unity in Christ, which recognizes Him as the divine Head of the Church, that we do des­ perately need and should seek for His glory, for the good of the Church and for the blessing of a world 16st in sin and strife. m . Troubled Tet Peaceful (w . 12- 18). The Church of Christ is in the world to witness for and to serve Him. Hence, it must face all the persecutions and trials which an un- beUeving world will bring upon it. Christians are not exempt from the troubles and sorrows common to aU mankind. Therein we find one of the great opportunities for effective witness, for as the Christiain and the Church rightly meet such difficulties, they testify to the grace of God which can give peace in one’s heart in the midst of turmoU and distress. Read the verses. Persecuted, but not embittered thereby; weeping but also rejoicing; meeting evil with good and crookedness with hon­ esty; meeting pride with humility and division with unity; yes, Uv- ing at peace (as far as it is possible) in a belligerent world. There is something essentially fine and noble and inspiring about the Christian Chturch wherever and whenever it Uves up to the Lord’s purpose for it and its members. There is something dismal and dis­ couraging about the Church when it fails the Lord and His mighty cause. Some feel that the Church is in just such a state of failure and im­potence in our day. If it is true of your church, why not pray and work for a revival which wiU sweep all the deadness out and’ bring in a new refreshing breath of power from the very throne of God?

Heating Satety One of the most notable innova­tions in safe heating is the wet base boiler in which water circulates un­der the ash pit' The tact that the boiler can be placed on a combusti­ble Iioor is of interest in connection with the trend toward the basement- less house. In such houses it is often desirable to install the boiler on a wooden floor in a utility room or kitchen. Other safety features of modern boilers are foot-treadle door openers, ball-shaped, air-cooled han­ dles and side shakers, making it easier to open, and close dooife. q Lucky Stonea Emeralds were once believed to be beneficial to the eyes and ame­thysts were thought to prevent drunkenness, according to Encyclo­ paedia Britannica. Tbe belief In lucky stones still exists. ' / Bath Banishes Blues According to etymologists, the English word “bath” comes indi­rectly from a Greek word meaning “to drive sadness from the mind.” Which goes to prove again that the classic Greeks were a modern peo­ple and that they knew the full value of bodily cleansing. Bathe frequent­ly and thoroughly, and thus “drive sadness from the mind.” Plan Baths If the man of the house has been accustomed to taking his daily show­ er in the morning, reserve this time for him>. The children might bathe in the evening, alloting the time ac­ cording to their ages and when they go to bed. C The' younger children might be bathed before dinner, old­er children later. Plan your own bath for whichever hour will give you the most relaxation. Egg* Nutritions i Eggs help keep the body healthy. • They make strong muscles and; Md blood.

Then, suddenly, It multiplies rapidly and produces Irreparable dam­age to the delicate lining membranes of the cow's udder.The disease may be either acute, with high fever and subsequent death, or a chronic, slow-going tissue change that ruins the cow’s usefulness. Not all mastitis is caused by this par­ticular “strep” germ. Sometimes ser­ious outbreaks are due to “staph-type” germs — the variety responsible for Ioils and abcesses.Fortunately, veterinarians have de­veloped accurate methods for plclting out the cows which harbor the offend­ing gqrms. Special chemical solutions have also been perfected which will free most cows from infection when introduced into the udder vault by a special injection method. Precaution­ary measures include disposal of un- treatable cows, milking infected cows LOOKINGAffKAD GEOROE S.

Gifts of God Draw on your imagination for a moment and consider with me an altogether improbable circum­ stance. Suppose a well-groomed gentleman with an easy -flow of lan­ guage should mount an improvised platform in the public square of an agricultural county-seat town next Saturday afternoon, play a phono­ graph record through a loud speak­ er to get an audience, and then should say: “Ladies and Gentlemen—there is just so much water in the entire universe; so much and no more. Any time you drink more of it than you need to quench your thirst, you are greedy because some unfortunate person somewhere on earth wants water. He is thirsty. His throat is dry and his lips are parching. And it is ail for want of the water which you so wantonly swallow." It Is Not True Such a speaker would soon lose his audience. People would walk away and leave him. Some of them might think about having his head examined because they know his ideas are out of joint. There is no connection whatever between one man’s abundance of water and some far-away stranger’s thirst. The need of the sufferer, even if he were a victim of cruelty, is apart from the owner of a good well.But the speaker might hold his audience if he said something like this: “Ladies and Gentlemen—there is just so much wealth in the world; so much and no more. Anybody with more than he needs for food, clothes and shelter is greedy be­ cause there are many people in China and India who never had a square meal in their lives. They are poor because a few people get very rich." Another Fallacy This speech is no nearer true than the one about the water. Both have some facts in them but they are not related facts. I am not trying to say that wealth is free and cheap like water, but I am saying this: My neighbor’s fine home and big car have cost me nothing. He has more than I have because he (or his fa­ ther maybe) has more wealth-creat­ing ability than I have. There is such a thing as oppression of the poor. There w such a thing as exploiting labor. It is a crime which Jesus decried openly. It is also a short-sighted vice because it leads toward poverty and not toward weglth. “Good money in circula­ tion" is a manifestation of prosper­ ity and it occurs only in lands where workers are well paid and thus per­ mitted to maintain good homes and live In comfort. America’s Blessing Workers are paid well in Amer­ ica, twice as well as in England and six times as well as in Russia, and America is a rich country. Fami­ lies live on $1 a month per person in China—China is a poor country. Is China poor because America is rich? No! Without the United States as a customer, and supplier, the Orient would be poorer still. The difference is that we have lib­ erty, and they have oppression. We Americans receive countless benefits from God’s hand that peo­ ple in other countries never heard about. Is God partial to America? Certainly not! Our benefits come through a channel that the rulers of other countries have blindly and selfishly closed by exploiting labor. Our God-fearing ancestors opened it for us long ago. The channel is personal freedom, protected by rep­ resentative, constitutional govern- M a k e A c c e s s o r i e s F o r B o n d M o n e y To save extra dollars for War.Bonds make your own accessories.
