When we spoak of clean living we think of it from four stand points, namely, physically, men tally, morally and spiritually. Ev ery youth should keep his body clean, refusing to go nasty and fil thy. He should keep his mind clean; for a clean mind means no ble iiying. No one with a mind filled and polluted with evil, sin and wickadness can rise high in life. His mental filthiness will de feat him. Theneveryyouth should live clean morally. For to be un clean morally means that one is victor over the degrading, deprav ing, demoralizing principals and things of life that bring defeat. Above all, every youth should be clean spiritually. Usually elean spiritual living includes all deanli- nest. However, one may be zlean in body, clean in mind, dean in morals, and yet not have a clean, pure heart, roul and spirit. This requires the cleansing, purifying blood of Jesus. Again, one may be clean mentally, motally and spiritually and foil to . keep his body es clean as he should, Ev ery youth who lives dean physi cally, mentally, morally and spiri tually is sure to live nobly, He walks uprightly before God and man. He wields a good influence wherever he goes, or wherever he lives, or at whatever he does. He points to the higher, better, nob ler and holier things of life. He makes his mark as he goes thru life, and will leave his mark be hind him to bless mankind when he is gone from this world. How wonderful to so live! This is pos sible. It is within the teach of every youth, every person, who lives in a Bible land, and that Kas good reasoning faculties, and that will yield his life completely unto God. This should be the sincere desire of every youth. Anydiing short of this may bring defeat. Multitudes are absolutely defeat ed because of unclean living phy sically, mentally, morally and spi ritually. May God enable our young people to realize the nobil ity of clean, godly living, then strive to measure up to it, by the grace of God. We indeed appreciate the young people of our country that live clean lives. W e wish to quote from a letter just received from Carl Roberson, of Bostic, N, C., who is one of our readers. He says, “Bro. Isenhour, I am writing ^ou to say I sure enjoy your ser mons in the Unibn Republican I am seventeen years old, and I like geod literature. Enclosed you will find $1 feor which please send me a copy each of your two books 'Lost Gems of The American Peo ple,’ and 'Our Refuge And Fort- ’ Send diem as soon as you can. for I am in a hurry to read them.

Byrnes as Secretarv of State is the subject of increasing discussion in view of Byrnes’ well known record on the question of racial discrimination. Since Byrnes was the first Tru man appointment, and by virtue of that appointment weuld succeed to the Presidency, in the event of a vacancy, hts record already threat ens among controversy among the New deals strange bedfellows—the city bosses red .-nd-pink socialists, and the South’s Bourbons Here ate a few Byrnes polemics now being reared by the Comrades from his record Congress "Notwithstanding the superior intellect and the superior education al advantages of the white men by some strange operation it has been almost impossible for a Democrat to secure a position in the Railway Mail Service. "In my own district, more than 80 per cent of the railway mail clerks are negroes, and a similar condition exists wherever Republi cans have restored to the civil ser vice to secure positions ” And again he said: "lor a long time we failed to realize the danger of permitting the publication of revolutionary doc trines in the foreign.language press. Today they are under close surveil lance and Iti like manner we should now prevent the IWW and the Bol sheviki of Russia from using the negro press press of America to to further their nefarious pur. poses.” And again: "As to social equality, God Al- mighty never intended that a white race and a black race should live on terms of social equaliiv; and tbst which the Creator did not intend, man cannot make possible.” His record also shows emphatic opposition to appropriatiens fo r Howard University From 1921 to 1938 . he ceaseless- Iessly railed against all attempts to pass anti-lynching laws. In 1938 he charged: "One negro . . . Wal ter White, Secretary of the Asso ciation for the Advancement of the Colored People . . has or. dered this bill to pass.” —Ex. It Was Always Thus In his inaugural address, Gov. Gregg Cherry pleaded for better form-to-market roads, promising to 'get the former out of the mud.” But she first “big” letting of con tracts by your new State Highway Commisrion on October 9th will be mainly for the big fellows—U* S. 158;U .S. 258; N .C . 150;U .S. 32; U.

Peace Time Military Training Is Un-Ameri can We hear a lot of talk these days ahout compulsary military train ing in peace time. We hear and read arguments both pro and cou. W e are told that a public opinion survey showed that die majority of Americans favored this training. But it would seem sensible to as sume that Americans havo had enough of militarism after this gigantic war. The business of the military is to wage war. A nation with a hugh military machine is always the first nation to become invol ved in a war. W ith the birth of the “United Nations Charter.” We say we will have permanent Peace. B u t doesn’t it look ridicilous, and also show a lack of faith i n the “Charter,” to begin to prepare for the next war before the air is free of the stench of the death of this recent war? Military training of U. S. youths un-American! If this policy is approval it will be another mortal blow at our American way of life. America must not be allowed to become a militaristic powers. Why should we tread in the bloodstain ed paths of our enemies when we have just defeated Gormany and Japan trained their youth for war from the cradle up, but have raep. ed terrible defeat. Now that the war is over A- merica must not continue to see her youth dragged off to be train ed to kill. Lift your voices a- gainst this un-Americun policy! Let die rett of the world know that we are not afraid to be free! ________A READER. Davie Fann News W ith the end of the 1945 pro gram year just two months off, J. N. Smoot, Ghairman Davie Coun- Jy AAA Committee, urged all for mers who have obtained conser vation materials under the 1945 program to exercise every possible effort to use these materials in ac cordance with good forming prac tices before the deadline, Decem- ber31st. Mr. Smoot pointed out that Da vie County farmeas Iostright much iast year because they failed to earn the full amount of their soil- building allowance. “Conservation materials in the form of Superphosphate is still a- vailable to all farmers in tha coun ty who have not yet taken their full allowance in. materials for 1945,” he said, “and this material may be applied to winter cover crops and pattures thtough De cember 31st.” J Upon using all materials, a re port should be made at the Da vie Gounty AAA Office by the form operator. “If all the farm allowance has not been taken up in conservation matetialt and pro ducers are eligible to receive pay ments, applications for payment may be signed at die same time,” he explained. The AAA Chairman also urges producers having 1944. conserva tion materials transferred to the 1945 program to make yroper use of it in order to obtain full credit and avoid a double deduction of the value of the materials. Senator Hugh Mitfhell of Ire dell Gounty, must have suffered thetortue of the damned last week. Hugh is a politician. Wall-Hutchins The wedding of Miss Nelda Hutchins and Thomas L. Wall was solemnized in a 7 o’clock ce remony Friday evening, Oct. 26th, at die home of the officiating min ister, Rev. G. W. Fink, on Salis bury street. The single ring cere mony of the Methodist Church was used. The couple was attended by Miss Laura Grey Bowles and For rest Whitaker. For her nuptials the bride chose a brown wool suit with matching accessories. Her corsage was -of pink rosebuds. Mrs. Wall is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Troy M. Hutchins, of Mocksville, R. 2, and graduated from Farmington High School. Mr. Wall is (he son of Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Wall, of Oak Grove. He is employed at Cooleemee. Mr. and Mrs. Wall will make their home on R. 2. W A R B O N D S News Swats Democrats The Daily News, which can hardly be placed among the most credulous of purveyors of public in formation in these parts, has for years been aware of imperfection in the treatment of mental patients in our state hospitals. Indeed, with out claimiraing any considerable re suit, it can be said of the Daily News that it has been trying to do something about it. But we have all along realized that the state as a whole must be interested to the point of accepting responsibility for mental care. How to do this without resort to politics and politicians we wouldn’t know, nor do we think Dr. Grorge Har. rell, of the Bowman Gray School of Medicine at Winston-Salem, will hare found a wav to bypass legisla ture and state administration which are made up primarily of politics and politicians However we in vite your attention to an Associated Press dispatch from Winston-Salem In which Dr. Harrell as a member of the advisory committee of the state hospital board of control in sists that our whole, mental care set-up in North Carolina stinks: Terming the set up for treatment of mental cases^iu North Carolina "abominable,” Dr. George Harrell of the Bowman Gray School of Medicine, foresaw no solution for the problem until "politics i-re left completely out of the picture.” Ia a talk before the Winston-Sa- Iem Lions Club, Dr. Harrell, a member of the advisory committee of the state hospital board of con trol, painted a gloomy picture for the state. Only South Carolina and Mississippi, he said, are in the worse condition. “ Frankly,” he said, the “whole thing stinks. There is no other way of expressing it.” Dr. Harrell blamed the situation in part upon the political set np both present and inherited. He predicted much worse condi tions with the return of servicemen. "When all these combat fiatigue cases are reinstated in society,” he said, onr "problem will be twice a gain wbat it is now,” He charged that the government was returning these men Into com munities as quickly as possible with out giving them adequate treatment Dr. Harfelt attributed the state’s inadequate set-up for mental cases to "lack of plan” as well as to "politics ’’—Greensboro News.

Wants Eight Army Sons For Oiristmas A father in Junction City, Kan sas, has asked government aid in gathering together his family for a Christmas reunion. You’d pro bably ask for help, too, if your family consisted'of eight sons dis tributed over Japan, Okinawa, Eu rope and the United States. John H. Jansen, 69, whote all members of the Kansas Congtess- ional Delegation, urging them to support his request to the adjutant general of the United States. Jan' sen asked that furloughs be or dered for his six sons still in the army, so they might join the two discharged sons at home for the fiist family reunion in 15 years. Representative Edward Rees of Kansas has already written to the adjustant general, supporting- Jan sen’s request. It will be a big Christmas if the Jensen boys all get home together. Strikers Connot Get Any Wage Compensation In answer to what he termed “numerous” inquiries from em ployer and others, Col. Arthur L. Fletcher, chairman of the State Unemployment Compensation Com mission, said that strikers nnder no circumstances can draw benefits for being out of work. Citing the North Carolina law, Fletcher said that when a worker's unemployment is caused by a labot dispute in which the worker is in. volved in a claim for benefits must be denied. "Our insurance fund set up car- ry workers over temporary periods 0 f involuntary unemployment, when they suffer wage loss from economic reasons and through no fault of onr own It is no part, of our program to make payments to workers out on strike. ’ However, workers who lose their jobs because of a strike situa tion have the right to file claims with this commission,” he said. We must then determine, in each case, toe extent to which the work er was involved.” Aaother Blander Another blunder of government buyers during the war has turned up in New Albany where more than a half million pounds of spoil ed la d was disenved stored iu a wareboute—1.267 drums of 5 0 - gallon capacity each weighing ap proximately 500 pounds—about 10 carloads.

Department of Com merce is taking particular interest in veterans who are returning from the wars with the intention of entering the small business field. The small business division has given the subject considerable time and thought and now has avail able for veterans a booklet, “Vet erans and Small Business” which answers numerous questions in the minds of the returning soldier. The booklet covers many facts of the highly competitive small busi ness field and covers subjects such as, “Postwar Plans for GIs”; "In dustry’s Job to Place Servicemen”; “The GI Bill and Small Business”; “What About These Veterans' Loans?”; “Factors in a GI’s Busi ness Success”; “Getting Started in Your Business”; “How Long Can I Stay in Business?”; "Survival Chances of EetaiI Stores”; “Bisk- taking in a Postwar World”; “Training Program for Small Bus iness”; "Marketing Facts On a County Basis”; “Small Town a Most Important Market,” and sev en other factors or subjects. These chapters were written by experts and information contained will be invaluable to the veteran contemplating entering the small business field. These booklets are available to veterans by writing to the “Small Business Division” of the United States Department of Commerce, Washington, D. C. Questions and Answers Q. Can a mother who is all alone and In poor health, have a son re leased from the Army if he hag been in since Jan. 25, 1943, and in the South Pacific since June 19, 1943, and has never had a fur lough? Mrs. D. f f , Greenwood, Wis. A. The War Department says that the fact the mother is all alone and in poor health would not necessarily bring about the son’s release. If the case can be considered a “hardship case” re lease might be given, but each case must be decided upon its merits and he recommended by the com manding officer. If your son, how ever, has been in the army since the dates you give, he possibly has enough points for his discharge now, or at least in the very near future. Without points for battle stars or decorations, which count five each, he has approximately 63 points. He is eligible for ap plication for discharge now at 70 points and the number is fixed at 60 points November I. Q. My daughter wishes to know whether she will be entitled to services of a doctor and hospitali zation benefits when her new baby arrives, if her husband who is now in the navy is discharged under the point system before the baby ar rives?—Mrs. W. A. L., Mill Iron, Mont. A. The Navy Department says that if she is now receiving navy medical care to which she is en- titlei Ilie navy will Jo everything it can to help her provided she does not move from the area where she is under treatment and the pregnacy is in the later stages. Suggest she contact the nearest navy hospital or dispensary for specific information. Q. Is there a course of study In fire fighting listed in the educa tional program for veterans and are there any books available on this subject? —G. E. D., Philadel phia. A. Many schools approved by State Boards of Education have instructions in fire fighting. For instance, the University of Mary land, College Park, Md., and North western University, Evanston, III., have Inch a course. It may be possible that the University of Pennsylvania has such a course. Suggest that you write one of these schools. Q. Will a soldier who has been in service for two years and 11 months in the States and 13 months overseas receive mustering-out pay if he is given a dependency dis charge?—Wife, Trdosr, Mo. A. The War Deparhnent says that if his dependency discharge is honorable he is entitled to mnster- ing-out pay. Q.

C, SIH LABOR CRISIS TESTS TRUHAN The fast-growing labor crisis presents Harry S. Truman with the first big problem he has facpd on a hitherto well-charted Roose velt sea. Up nntil now, most policies, especially those dealing with war and peace, had been pretty well established by Tru man’s predecessor. In settling the current labor turmoil, however, Harry is completely on his own. For some time, labor advice from White House insiders has differed. Truman’s labor department has argued that labor troubles after wars were inevitable, that both. Wilson and Harding had to call out U. S. troops after the last war, that labor has been in a strait jacket since Pearl Harbor, is bound to feel its wild oats now; finally that big business was equal ly in a straight jacket and equal ly willing to row with labor espe cially if it could get labor in wrong with the public . . . ad vice to Truman; Don’t stick your neck out; let both sides battle it out for a while. Opposite advice came from another wing of the White House . . . while admitting that all the above is true, other ad visers' urged that both labor and industry needed guidance. For: four years both labor and Industry have had the Little- Steel Formula as their guide. They were supposed not to go above this . . . Now labor finds itself losing its overtime wages, with take-home pay dropping way below lush war days, yet with the cost of living still high. Therefore, Trnman was urged to step forward and set a na tional policy, suggest a wage increase which would partly off set the drop in take-home pay ... It is this group of advisers which Truman finally has decided to follow. FARMERS VS. LABOR UNIONS Last week Florida citrus grow ers came to Washington, worried sick over the future market for grapefruit and oranges. They feared a return of the old day3 when their fruit was dumped into Florida rivers . . . The army has just cancelled orders for several million cases of orange juice. Si multaneously it has turned back on the civilian market several million more surplus cases. This backlog is bound to have a depressing effect on citrus fruit . . . Citrus fruit growers know that with wages dropping, the civilian demand for oranges and grapefruit will also nose-dive. When workmen get paid less, first thing they quit buying is' fruit. .. Cattlemen also figure on a drop in prices. Not only win the army buy less, but workmen eat less meat, when wages are cut . . . Same is true of many other farm commodities, including dairy products ... Never before has the average American eaten so well— despite rationing—as during the war years, largely because wages were high . . . Seldom before also have farmers been so prosperous . . . Seldom before, however, have farmers been so sore at labor unions. They were looking for ward to buying new autos, new farm machinery. Now all this is delayed by strikes. Also they were looking forward to the return of cheap labor from cities to farms. So far this hasn’t materialized. * * * unions Lose money Big industrial unions naturally don’t want, any trek back to the farm. It means loss of dues. The United AUto Workers’ 1,000,000 dues-paying membership has now dropped to about half of thatr The drop was so severe that the cost of running the union went in the red . . . UAW chiefs are going about their wage protests in an orderly, fair-minded manner, have done their best to stop the Kelsey- Hayes wildcat strike . . . But some uiiiori leaders prefer 'strikes. It helps increase their power in the union _..,. . In Schenectady, Gen eral Electric’s Charles E. WBson long has' advocated higher wages. He says it helps him sell electric refrigerators, electric irons, etc. He has been ready to make up ward wage adjustments voluntar ily, just as wise Standard Oil of N. J. increased its pay immedi ately and automatically at the end of the war. However, certain CIO Elec trical Workers seem more in terested in a strike than a vol untary or negotiated wage boost . . . some labor leaders, unfortu nately, seem deliberately looking for strikes—among them JoW L. Lewis. They bring disfavor on the heads of other labor leaders, have given the entire labor move ment a bad setback with public opinion . . . Public opinion in some areas is now so anti-labor that Truman would get thunderous applause if he called out U. S. troops as strike-breakers. Thinis I Nevet Knew Till Now About Atoms'. This gives you an idea of the atom’s size: If a drop of water were magnified to the size of the earth, the atoms in it would hardly be the Bize of oranges . • . Most of the atom is composed of empty space. It is made of an orbit of electrons revolving around the nu cleus much as planets revolve about the sun. An electron is merely a particle of electricity ... The atom’s nucleus contains all its colossal energy. It took sci entists more than 50 years of re search to unlock the nucleus so it could give up that power . . . Uranium has made the atomic bomb the most devastating explo sive. Yet the bomb uses only one- tenth of one per cent of uranium’s potential strength . . . Another reason why the United Nations should stick together: They pos sess three-quarters of the world’s uranium supply. Few motorists realize that their cars are driven by atomic power. Gasoline is rich in hydrogen atoms, and they provide most of the pow er that drives the car .. . Atomic power is one of the few great discoveries that was the goal of the longest and most difficult series of researches in history. Most momentous discoveries were acci dents: The invention of fire, the discovery of America, the discov ery of oxygen and the X-ray were all the result of accident. In 1905, a young patent office clerk in Switzerland developed a theory which involved the idea that under certain conditions mat ter could be changed into energy and energy into matter. Accord ing to that theory, a very small amount of matter could produce tremendous quantities of energy. This has become the basic principle for atomic power. Yet science ig nored this theory for 15 years. The young patent office clerk’s name: Albert Einstein. You’ve probably read that the atomic power in a breath of air could operate a powerful plane for a year continuously; that the a.p. in a handful of snow could heat a large apartment house for a year, etc. However, Prof. Einstein be lieves "it will probably take many years” to channel uranium’s energy into peaceful pursuits. Ein stein also points out that other substances might be found "and probably will be found" to accel erate its commercial use. On Dec. 10, 1941 (a day before we declared war against Ger many), Princeton University sci entists issued a report which was buried in gazettes’ inside pages. Today the significance of this re port cannot be over-estimated: It revealed that the scientists made much headway in planning means to defend America against any type of atomic attack. SimBar re search is now continuing ... Some day the result of this work might make the atomic bomb obsolete . . . The peacetime role of atomic energy wiB depend upon one con sideration—relative cost. < UntU a method of producing the energy has been revolutionized and brought- down to a low figure, it is likely to provide a source of energy in extremely concentrated form only for highly specialized industrial purposes . . . One sci entist has observed: "Splitting the atom is like discovering the other half of the world—the biggest half.” Uranium is used for atomic bombs because it has the largest atom of any of the known ele ments and would be easier to split... When the atom is cracked, the fragments of its nucleus are hurled off with an energy of 100,000,000 electron volts . .. The machinery which produced the atomic bomb has given the world its greatest destructive force. Very little attention has been given to the fact that such machinery is being used to save life, not only destroy it. The atom-splitting cyclotron is a potent medical tool and is an invaluable aid in the fight to lick cancer . .. We have pointed out that the nucleus is the source of the atom’s power. It staggers the imagination to real ize the nucleus is only one-mB- lionth of a billionth of the size of the atom! The energy in just one gram of uranium is strong enough to lift the Empire State BuBding 20 mBes in the air . . . More than Hve years ago, Dr. R. M. Langer (physics research associate at the California Institute of Technol ogy) wrote in a mag that uranium could create a civilisation in which man would dwell underground for better living; where national boundaries would be obsolete because of swift travel; and in which meaning of the gold standard would be lost because of decreased living costs. W a sh in g to n D i g e s t V e te r a n s * A d m in is tr a tio n H a s C a p a b le L e a d e r [ J General Bradley Has Fatherly Interest in Veterans; Actions Show His Ability to Administer This Big Job By BAUKHAGE Commentator and News Analyst WNU Sendee, 1616 Eye St., N. W, Washington, D. C. I have just come back from a visit with the father of 15 million. That isn’t such a far-fetched figure to use in describing the tall, rangy Missourian, who is in charge of “the biggest business in the world,” which is how they describe the Veterans’ Administration in Washington. To call Omar Nelson Bradley “father” of the service men and women isn’t stretching it. Ernie Pyle once said: “If I could pick any two men in the world for my father except my own Dad, I would pick General Omar Bradley or General Ike Eisenhower. If I had a son, I would like him to go to Bradley or Ike for advice.” Ernie was a pretty keen judge of human nature on the hoof. I thought of that when one of Brad ley’s co-workers in the Veterans’ Administration, who is almost a decade older than the general, said “fatherly” was the way to describe the manner in which he was treated the first time they had a problem to straighten out with the boss.And then I met the General. I found a weather-beaten, wiry, long-legged soldier, whose eyes twinkled brighter than the four stars on his collar. Fatherly, yes —and PU have a word about that a ,little later. But I found out something else. I found out why he ought to be able to run one of the hardest jobs in the govern ment! And I’ll admit, right off, it sounds almost too good to be true.We had been talking about the details of the reorganization of the agency which is now going on and with which General Bradley is minutely familiar. Then I asked him what it was, if anything, in his military training and experi ence that he could use in his pres ent position.He said that he thought it was the same with all jobs such as this. And here is the theory on which he works:“First, buBd your organization on functional lines. Second, get the right man to head up each function. Third, give him full re- sponsibBity to act on his own au thority.”How, I inquired, does this fit in with your military experience, having had some of that branch of adventure myself—although running a platoon isn’t running an army. “It’s a good deal like the army,” he answered. “You have your staff. You have say 20 sections, each with a special function, work ing under your chief of staff. Sometimes, of course, you group some of the functions, but the or ganization is along functional lines.”And how, I asked, do you choose the men to head up these various activities? His answer came back without the slightest hesitation. “I choose a man, first for his ability, second for his loyalty—and I count heavfly on the loyalty. Get loyal men of ability and you’ve gone a long way toward solving your problems in any organiza tion.” That sounded pretty good to me, but what about the present situation where, after all, there is always a Congress on Capitol Hill, a Congress with constituents who have votes and some of whom want jobs. I asked the General, what about politics? He didn’t seem worried. He said that he hadn’t had any trouble. "I’m not a politician,” he said. “I never intend to run for office." That was all he would say, but here is a story I picked up later at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue.A certain Congressman* got a hot letter from a constituent who had been fired from the Veterans’ Administration. No doubt with due cause. He hot-footed it up to the General and spoke, as legis lators often do to officials, with considerable vigor. “I want the man re-hired at once,” the Congressman demanded. The General was polite but sorry. He stood by his decision. v “If you don’t, PU attack you on the floor.” “Go ahead,” said Bradley, faintly recalling, I imagine, some of the attacks in Normandy. “PU block your bills,” said the irate Congressman. That was a horse of a different color. “You wiB ?” said the General. “All right, and if you do that, PU go to the President with my resignation. He’ll get that or find a means to stop you.” (Period.) We all knew about the Gen eral’s war record—in Tunisia, on the Normandy beachhead, among the hedgerows, where he smashed a gateway at St. Lo which made Patton’s lightning drive possible. But we didn’t know much about the man. Most of us didn’t know he was from Missouri and later some of us might have suspected that that was the reason why he was picked, although the Presi dent said it was because he wanted a World War H soldier to take care of the wants of World War H veterans. Now we have some other reasons for believing that the choice was predicated on wise. advice and is going to prove itself I a fortunate one. _ •On the horse-sense side, it is* because Bradley has established a record as an administrator. He proved that in the army and had the acumen to see the chief fault in the veterans’ organization and has set out to remedy it. On the emotional side—well, Er nie Pyle was right. The trouble with the Veterans’ Administration was that it grew so rapidly that it didn’t have time to delegate authority. And there was another reason for this. It was buUt on what seemed a very sound theory. Let’s take its services to the veteran. For instance, small hospitals were scattered all over the country, many in little commu nities where the veteran could get to them easUy. But that didn’t work out. It was hard, to get ex pert medical men, good service and the latest equipment in the smaller communities and because the re gional organization was spread so thin, it was necessary to have a strong hand in Washington. ,The result was that the grip of that hand was so tight that the whole system was cramped. Bradley put his finger on the situation (with the help qf well- chosen counsel) and reversed the former policy. Now it’s “bring the veteran to the hospital.” Bring him by rafl or plane in an emer gency, but bring him to a well- manned, well-equipped center whose size and importance wfll at tract the best there is in medical skill, when he heeds specialized care. Hand in hand with this regional centralization of the medical facili ties, the new organization has de centralized the authority. As soon as Bradley looked over the set-up he said: “This is like having a 150 regi ments under one man. In the army that would be unthinkable. We’d break it down into corps and divisions at least.” And so that is what was done. But first he made a sharp cleav age between the medical organiza tion and the rest of the activities. He created a new office, “Acting Surgeon General of the Veterans’ Administration.” And he ap pointed the best man he knew, Major General Paul Ramsey Haw ley, who had been chief surgeon for the European theater and did an outstanding job. And here I wonder if there wasn’t one of those important un conscious childhood impressions which helped. Bradley’s middle name, Nelson, is for a well-loved family physician.. And Bradley’s fatherliness is attested to in his interest in the physical welfare of his men. Again and again war correspondents mentioned the fact that he planned engagements so that his troops would suffer the fewest casualties possible. He has an instinctive understanding of the afflicted. B A R B S • • . by Baukh-age Mahomet went to the mountain. The Mikado went to MacArthur. This, it seems only fair to say, merely demonstrates the excellent judgment of all parties concerned. As I look back over a few dec ades I have enjoyed on this mun dane sphere, the only things I regret seem to be the things I missed. I A lot of New Yorkers who had forgotten there were such things had to use stairs during the ele vator men’s strike. And this did more for the calves than if they’d taken the ceBing price off bf veal. Production of rubber heels is still behind demand. But there are still more of . the other kind of heels than we need. N E W S B y B m jlM a l l o n Released by Western Newspaper Union. ATOMIC BOMB CREATES SUPER-SPY SYSTEM NEED. WASHINGTON—Major General Wild Bill Donovan bowed out of the first real American intelli gence service (OSS) with a some what cool-sounding response from President Truman to his idea of developing his line of effort fur ther for peace. Mr. Truman cut up OSS, sending part to the War Department, but most to State. The Donovan notion of hiring someone like Sumner Welles, the ex-diplomat, to keep intimate and independent watch on the inner international world, was left hang ing in air—somewhat foggy air. General Donovan has never been a glamour boy. He is a rather, crusty soldier-lawyer. Those who know what he did in the confi dential special agent part of the war say his work in the Balkans particularly was excellent and could have been done by no one else as well. Into his organiza tion, however, crept a number of persons who did not fit the best nature of the endeavor and gave it distaste with Congress. I think this fairly sums up OSS. It did great work, but was not popular. (I can never learn what accom plishes popularity in this era when a bank robber can possibly attain it by merely being for the 30-hour week or some such social innova tion.) In the wake of this peculiar con dition, congressmen are arising to shout “There will be no American Gestapo,” and I assume also they mean no OGPU or NKDV. In deed there will not. But there is a grave danger that the first vital necessity for a secure postwar world will be ignored and shunted aside by muddleheaded political thinking about it. If you thought Pearl Harbor a surprise and blitz warfare sudden as lightning, you are already old- fashioned and obsolete in your thinking. The next war will start like a flash—the brilliant blinding flash of the atomic bomb. If our defenses were archaic last time, they will be pitiful next time un less our officials know everything going on in this world. Advance knowledge is more essential to de fense in a future world than a superior air force, an army or fleet.Not the Fascists or the Com munist nations, but the British, a democratic nation, have the best world intelligence. It was built up through generations. Their survival depended upon it, because their little islands had absolutely nothing to justify their superior position in theworld, except an awareness of the facts of national existences and a superior shrewdness in using them. That is what we need—only a Setter one. It caniiot be an army enterprise because the army covers only one phase of world facts influencing peace and security. It cannot he navy, marine corps, or merely all three together, because diplomacy must be founded upon such in formation. (The British even move commercially from such realistic ground news.) It .cannot be split, or you will have each department performing again the coordination they showed about Pearl Harbor— namely none. INDEPENDENT BUREAU NEEDED Consequently it must be an In dependent bureau covering at least these government elements and probably more (Justice De partment and FBI.) Furthermore, the head must be a man whose character and personality guar antee full pursuit of the business to be done, and a complete disavowal of any political implica tions in the work. He must not be a leftist or right or even a professional Democrat or Repub lican. That service must lean over backwards to keep itself po litically inviolable, and beyond even Ihe faintest suspicion of po litical use. (The British know how to do it.) The only limit on its appro priations should be our need qf information. If we need the information—get it. If the spenders want to let Treasury money loose, here is one place where they could get something out of it. Some interested par ties wish to limit the scope of activity to foreign information. It should be limited only by need. . If it is fgund counterespionage in this country it requires action, no political softpeddaling con siderations should be allowed to stand in the way of getting it.

Sugar Restrictions Prevent Solution Of Dessert Problems Mounds of. creamy ice cream'ride on top of peach halves set on squares of tasty, hot milk sponge cake. A dessert sauce made of the peach juice is a delightful foil for the fruit, ice cream and cake. Now that food rationing has loos ened up in most of the eatable goods, and we are once again able to get back on a prewar standard, cooking problems need not be pressing. However, in spite of this lifting of restrictions, we still have at least one major problem—that of sugar.Little relief is in sight right now, and the situation will probably pre vail for some months. What shall we do about dessert? Well, first of all there are fruits which can be dished up in any number of per fectly delightful ways. There’s, whipped cream and ice cream, and, of course, sugar substitutes. One cup of sugar or less is a good rule to follow if you are using rec ipes calling for this sweet but scarce commodity. If your cake calls for Vh cups of sugar, use % cup of sugar with % cup of com syrup. In this case you must use 2 table spoons less milk than the recipe calls for and 2 tablespoons of flour, additional. The fat scarcity also limits us to some extent on the baked goodies we want to make. That’s why sponge cake will be popular, as in this following recipe: Feach Sponge a Ia Mode. (Serves 8) Sponge cakeI No. ZVi can peach halves I quart vanilla ice cream Dessert sauce The cake used uses 4 eggs and is made with scalded milk to give it a fluffy texture: Sponge Cake. 2 cups sifted cake flour Va. teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons baking powder 4 eggsI cup sugar I cup milk, scalded I teaspoon vanilla 3 tablespoons butter, melted Sift flour and measure. Sift three times with salt and baking powder. Beat eggs with rotary beater until thick and lemon colored.. Add sugar gradually and beat until fluffy. Fold in flour mixture, then milk, flavoring and melted butter. Fold until weU blended. Pour into square cake pan lined with waxed paper. Bake in a moderate (350-degree) oven for 30 minutes. Cool in pans. Dessert Sauce. Liquid from peaches 2 teaspoons granulated sugar Beinaining pe^ch halves, chopped M cup salted almonds, slivered I tablespoon brown sugar Cook the peach liquid down to % cup. Stir in the granulated sugar Lynn Says: Make Meals Good: No family enjoys eating the same, same foods every meal. It’s a good idea not to repeat dishes more than once every three or four weeks. Even favorite foods get monotonous when served too regularly. To get contrast in every meal, follow the basic seven charts to see that you get in all different types of foods. In planning a meal, have some things crisp, others soft, and still others hart. For example, meat can be the “soft” food, while broccoli or salad add the crisp ness, and rolls are the' “hard” part.Try to combine colors, too. Cauliflower, potatoes and creamed chicken may all be good, but they don’t stimulate the appetite. However, consider the colorful ness of creamed chicken with french fried potatoes and peas with carrots. There should also be a combination of hot and cold dishes. .Even with a salad luncheon, the hot foods can be soup and coffee.Some cooked, some raw is an other good rule. Be sure to have a salad—a big one, too, if you are having roasted meat, cooked vegetables and pie or pudding, which are all cooked. Lynn Chambers’ Menu Braised Liver with Vegetables Creamed Potatoes Celery Sticks ’ Molded Plum-Pear Salad Corn Sticks Honey•Open-Faced Apple Pie •Recipe given. and chill. Serve over the peach halves a la mode and top with nuts mixed with brown sugar.To serve, arrange a peach half on a square serving of cake. Top with a mound of ice cream and serve with the dessert sauce. If it’s apples you want, then you will like this pie which is easy on fat because it does not have to have a top crust. It uses an egg for richness and flavor: Open-Faced Apple Pie.(Serves 6 to 7) 3 cups sliced apples (about 2A pound) ' I egg, well beaten % cup sugar < 1 tablespoon flour t. Vi teaspoon cinnamon H teaspoon grated lemon rind f V\ teaspoon salt j 2 tablespoons melted butter ‘ Plain pastry for I crust (about I cup flour) Line pie pan with pastier, building up the edge. Fill with sliced apples. Add remaining ingredients to beaten egg; beat well. Pour batter ovfer apples. Bake in a hot (425-degree) oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Apples which are best to use in this type of pie are Rome Beauty or Macintosh. I Black walnuts can lend a distinc tive flavor to pie when fruit supplies dip to a low during the cooler weath er as in this recipe: Black Walnut Pie.' 1 2 cups milk1 cup sugar I S tablespoons flour 2 egg yolks 1A teaspoon salt V-*'~ I teaspoon vanilla -- 2 teaspoons butter I cup black walnuts Baked pastry shell Whipped cream Make a custard of the milk, sug ar, flour and egg yolks, cooking until thick in a double boiler. Add salt, vanilla and butter. Cool. Add nut- meats and pour into a baked pastry shell. Let set and cool. Serve with whipped cream topping. This novel apple pie saves short ening by using just one crust. For delicious flavor and good, old-fash ioned heartiness, add an egg to the apple mixture. The old-fashioned puddings are al ways popular because of their mo lasses sweetness and fragrant spices. Suet is usually used for the base, but one of the fats may be substituted if it is unavailable. Buttermilk is C ia used to give that fluffy texture which is so appe- tizing. . ( Quaker Pudding. ■ (Serves 10) ZVt cups sifted flour ’ IlA teaspoons soda .. Vt teaspoon salt 1A teaspoon nutmeg Vs teaspoon cinnamon VA cups buttermilk I cup ground suet I cup molasses I cup raisins or other chopped dried fruit, or candied fruit 3A cup rolled oats Sift flour with soda and salt. Add all other ingredients in order given and mix thoroughly. Pour into two one-quart greased molds. Cover and steam for 3 hours. Serve with Foamy or Orange sauce. > Stuff green peppers with creamed chicken or turkey and rice. The pep pers should be parboiled first, and after stuffed, they may be heated for 10 minutes in a moderate oven. If you like stuffed ,green peppers, try them with a stuffing of corned beef hash mixed with onion. It’s mighty good.Like sweet potato pudding? One way to make it is to mash six cooked sweet potatoes with 6 ta blespoons butter, 2 tablespoons grated lemon rind and I cup of orange juice. Bake this mixture in a greased casserole in a moderate oven for 15 minutes. Released by Western Newspaper Union.

When the m aterial is used in barns, poultry houses, and simi lar places, all feed should be re moved so that it will not become contaminated. He reminds that all drinking cups and salt licks should be covered while the DDT is being applied. The spray must be al lowed to dry thoroughly before ani mals are permitted to return to the premises. Operators applying DDT spray or dust are urged to avoid getting any more ol the m aterial on themselves than is absolutely nec'essary and the same precaution applies to inhaling the m aterial. Operators should be especially careful with DDT and oil mixtures because the oil penetrates the skin of humans much more readily than water and, therefore, is much more dangerous to handle. General use of 1DDT is not advised because there still is considerable research work to be done on insects and crops. It has been used safely as a spray for fly, bedbug, louse and roach control in dairy barns and poultry houses, as a spray in combination with bordeaux mixture for the control of Jea beetles and leafhoppers on potatoes, and as a spray or dust under certain condi tions for various household insects. .

N. C. OHARA TtiE STORT THUS FAS: Thunder, head* or tne uoDim as be Is commonly IiIIGKn, Is tbe only white horse ever horn . on die Goose Bar ranch In Wyoming. He grows from an ugly, misshapen colt to a powerful yearling, showing more and more characteristics of his great grandsire, a wild stallion CaUed the Al, ; Pino. One day the Goblin wanders : loutliward into the mountains. An eagle attacks him, and he runs home In terror, goon, however, he goes back, and finds a valley In which wild horses live. He encounters the Albino, and barely es capes with his life. Meanwhile his mother, Flicka, is bearing her next foal. The birth Is premature, and the TCter- laartan is In attendance. W .N .U . F E A T U R E S '—, CHAPTER S I "Sacrifice the foal,” said Mc Laughlin, “the mare won’t stand much more." 'May not have to," said Doc. t m not stumped yet." - They fastened a block and tackle ‘to the wall and ran the rope through it. Then Doc fetched an instrument like a pair of ice tongs, and to Ken’s 'horror, thrust the points into the !foal's eye sockets. Then they all :pulled together. It moved a little. Flicka heaved and struggled convulsively. The men hauled until they were red in the face. And suddenly the whole little body slid out. ; Instantly the men undid the ropes and Gus went to prepare a hot mash for Flicka. . The doctor kneeled over the foal, which was barely alive. 1 “Is it premature?” asked NelL ; “It might be a little. The teeth are just through. When was the mare bred?” : “We don’t know exactly.” [ “Will it live?” asked Ken. i The doctor did not answer. He wiped the foal dry and clean, mas- saged it and gave it a hypodermic injection. It was a very small but neatly made filly. It had a short back, long spidery legs close together and a small fine head with a dish face. It was a pinkish yel low with blond tail and mane.“Just like Flicka!” exclaimed NeH. “Will it live?” insisted Ken.: “Can’t say for sure, it’s pretty weak. But sometimes these little fellows surprise you. It’s just touch and go.” : Theywereallastonlshedtoseethat the terrible hooks had not injured the foal’s eyes at all.NeU noticed Ken’s face. It was white and drawn. When Flicka suf fered he suffered. She wondered if, after all the suffering, there would ever be any good thing come from the Albino’s blood. Would it be, per- tiaps, this tiny filly? ■ Soon Flicka was able to get to her feet and eat her mash. The filly 'showed signs of life and struggled to rise. Doc and McLaughlin lifted it and held it up underneath its dam to nurse. When the teat touched its lips it opened its mouth and be- 'gan to suck, and everyone watching smiled and relaxed. ' When it had had enough, it was -put down on the hay again and the ,veterinarian prepared to leave. I At this moment, a shadow at the jdoor blocked out the sunlight. They turned to look and saw the Goblin standing there. ' If Ken had seen someone returned from the dead he could hardly have felt a more violent shock. Over his whole body there poured a wave of heat, followed by such bliss that he could not see clearly.Then Gus’s voice exclaimed, “Yiminy Crickets! Luk at him! He’s tore to pieces!” And Ken’s eyes cleared and he saw the wounds and 'acabs on Goblin’s white coat and rushed to him. 1 Goblin was startled and fled around the corral. He did not, how ever, go out of the open gate, but circled and came hesitatingly back. I McLaughlin reprimanded Ken sharply, then, himself, went quietly toward the colt, his eye running over him. “Steady, old boy! Gosh! Look at that ear! That’s a nice fellow— what a rip in the shoulder—” “And there’s a piece chewed out of his fanny!” said Howard. 1 “That colt’s sure been in a fight,” said the vet, eyeing the swollen shoulder wound. “That was done by a hoof, and a mighty big one. I’d better take a look at it while I’m here.” “Get a bucket of oats, Howard,” said McLaughlin, “and Ken, bring the halter.” The Goblin was ravenous for the cats. They haltered him and Mc Laughlin and the, vet examined his wounds. “Look here,” said Doc, “here are some other wounds that are nearly healed. He’s been in two fights. Look at the mark of daws here on the other shoulder—might have been a wildcat—” “And,” said Howard excitedly, “look at the little scars all over the underside of his neck and belly— What did that?” They were‘scattered snags, nearly healed. Doc was puzzled. He shook his head. “Might be wire snags,” he said doubtfully. Every time the Goblin lifted his nose out of the bucket he turned his head toward Nell. She smoothed his face, wondering if this ended 3U their future hopes. That shoul- der wound looked deep. If it had reached the bones or tendons— Rob voiced her thought. “This shoulder wound, Doc—will it hurt his speed?” “I don’t think so,” said Doc. “It was a glancing blow.” “What gets me,” said McLaugh lin, “is how did he get in here? There’s a four-strand barbed-wire fence between this pasture and the coimty road.” Doc laughed as he pulled on his shirt. “My guess is, you’ve got a jumper.” “I’ve seen plenty of wooden fences in the east jumped.” Rob shook his head. “But horses don’t jump these wire fences. No—there must be some gates open somewhere up the line.” “Train him for a hunter,” said Doc, “and send him east to a hunt club. You’d get a big price for him. He’s a husky—how old is he? A long yearling?” “A short yearling,” said Ken proudly. “He was foaled last September.” “By Jinks!” said the vet. “He’s a baby elephant." “He’s made a good beginning as a stallion,” said McLaughlin dryly. “He’ll carry these scars all his life.” “Gee! It must have been some fight!” exclaimed Howard excited ly. “Do you think he mixed it up with Banner, Dad? Banner’s the only stallion around here.” “It might have been one of the other yearlings,” said Nell. “They might have been fighting—” “Not a hoof of that size,” said Rob, indicating the shoulder wound. “It could only be Banner. H Gob lin has started fighting Banner—but I can’t understand Banner’s giving him such punishment—the colt must have done something to deserve it.” They exchanged a flurry of blows. But Ken didn’t have the colt for long. He had been put into the home pasture, to be close at hand in case his wounds needed tending. Flicka and her filly were put there too as soon as the little foal could run at her mother’s side. There sprang up between Goblin and his little sister one of those strange at tachments that exist between horses. When he was near, she must leave her dam’s side and wander to him. He would stand, his high head curved and bent to her. She would reach up her little muzzle to touch his face and neck. The boys carried oats to them morning and evening. One morning the Goblin was not there. Rob ex amined all the fences. 'Tm begin- ning to think Doc must have been right, and that he can jump these fences,” he said frowning. “Unless he rolled under that place on the south side where there’s a little hol low.” The boys saddled up and rode out to hunt for him. He was not with the yearlings, nor brood mares, nor the two-year-olds. He was nowhere to be seen. This time Ken was not so un happy. The colt had come back once—he probably would again. The new fortitude was sufficient for this strain upon' it, although when he was ready to say his prayers that night, it did cross his mind to ask the Al mighty if He thought it was quite fair to be an Indian giver? He sup pressed this impulse as being not entirely respectful and, possibly, prejudicial to future favors. The little filly grew and thrived. Her hoofs and bones hardened. She to know the family, the dogs, the cats, and to be interested In all their comings and goings. Nell named her Touch And Go.Rob McLaughlin was crazy about her. She meant something to him— the justification of his theory of line- breeding. His eyes were very keen and blue and narrow as he looked at he«Now there’s a litle filly that's got points!” he said. “Look at those perfect legs!” , ,He began to feed her oats almost from the start. He would let hermouth a few grains at a time. With plentiful feeding she would overcome the handicap of her premature birth—she had it in her. What she had in her would come out. They halter-broke and handled her early without any trouble at all. - “I always had a hunch that if Flicka was bred back to Banner Pd get something out of the ordinary.” They were sitting on the terrace after supper, Flicka and the filly near the fountain In the center of the Green. Suddenly they heard the thunder of hoofs from below in the calf pasture and saw, rounding the shoulder of the hill, the Goblin coming at a canter. Rob rose to his feet, astonished—how could the colt have got into the calf pasture? In a moment they all knew. There was a four-strand barbed wire fence between the Green and the calf pas ture. Goblin cantered easily up to it—swerved to aim at the gate post, and cleared it easily. He came can tering to Flicka and the filly, neigh ing a greeting. “Well I’m damned," said Rob, then put his pipe back slowly into his mouth. “If he’s started .fighting Banner and jumping all the fences,, there’s going to be hell to pay front now on. Tffis means he can come and go as he pleases.” The boys rushed down to the Green chattering excitedly. Nell followed them with Rob. Goblin and his little sister were In an ecstasy of reunion. “He’s kissing her!” shouted Ken. "Look Mother! Look at Goblin!” _ “It’s simply ridiculous to call him Goblin,” said Nell. “That’s not a Goblin. That’s Thunderhead.” There was a moment’s silence. Ken felt his mother’s words go right through him. It had come at last— The white foal seemed inches taller. He had grown in all his parts so that he had still that appearance of maturity and strange precocity—like a boy carrying a man’s responsibil ity. Nell looked up at her husband. “Don’t you see, Rob? He’s completely changed. He’s been changed ever since he was lost the first time, when he got those awful cuts.” “How do yea mean—changed?” demanded Howard.“Well—sort of grown-up. More dignified. Something has come into him that was never there before, and it’s ironed out a lot of his awk wardness and meanness. We must call him by his right name from now on—he deserves it.” “The Goblin is dead—long live Thunderhead,” shouted Howard. Ken got a bucket of oats and fed the wanderer. Then Flicka. Then offered the bucket to the tiny filly. She jabbed her inquisitive little nose into it, took it out with a few grains sticking to it and jumped away, mouthing them, tossing her head up and down. “Dad,” said Ken, “where does he go when he goes off—Thunderhead, I mean?” Ken almost blushed with embarrassment when he gave his colt the great title. “I wish I knew,” said Rob slowly. “And that jumping of wire fences— he’s had no training—he’s inherited that—straight from the Albino. He’s an absolute throwback. That fel low was a great jumper. No fence could hold him.”When it grew darker they put the three horses down into the calf pas ture.“Not that it will do much good,” said Rob dryly. “That bronc’ll come and go as he pleases.” They sat on the terrace again for a while in the dark. Across the Green two hoot owls were calling to each other.Rob said at last thoughtfully, “Well — Thunderhead can jump, Thunderhead can buck. Thunder head can fight. But none of these accomplishments are important to a racer. It remains to be seen if Thunderhead can run.” Thunderhead could run, but an other year passed before Iliey knew it for certain. The boys had come home from school for their summer vacation again, and the colt, being now a two-year-old, was started on a course of intensive training. He bad had his freedom all win* ter. There had been times when, Rob and Nell knew, he was no where on the Goose Bar ranch. He went south—that much had been dis covered. He stayed away , awhile. He came back. But now that Ken was home and had begun training him in earnest, he was to be kept in all summer. No more gallivanting, Ken worked with the colt for a fortnight. He went through the drill with halter, grooming, blanketing all over again. He rode him bareback, then with saddle. He rode him in the corral, neck-reining him, doing figure eights, making Um back and advance, stand. Seldom was a day that he was not bucked off. He final ly took him out of the corral and struggled with him In the open. Tha colt wheeled, lunged, balked—gal loped a little, then fought and backed and refused—refused—then bucked, Ken remounted him and the fight began again. Thunderhead didn’t like his mas ter. Often he seemed animated by a definite spirit of hatred. He gal loped at a big tree and tried to scrape the boy off. Ken yanked his head around just in time. Then Thunderhead learned how to take the bit in his teeth and run away.. It was a rough, fighting gallop, with the weight of the horse’s head so heavy In Ken’s hands that he was racked to pieces.

FRUITS OF PUBLIC WORSHIP LESSON TEXT—Isaiah 8:1-8: Ephesians 5:15r21- ,GOLDEN TEXT-Pralse ye the Lora. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, In the assembly of the upright, and In the congregation.—Psalm 111:1. The center of every community should be the church. The house set aside for the worship of God is the gathering place of His people. There they find fellowship as they meet their Lord. He is in their midst exalted and mighty, but ready to enter every humble and contrite heart.Our lesson shows us how the wor ship of God brings blessed results as His people meet. I. Recognizing God’s Presence (Isa. 6:1-4).King Uzziah, who had begun well but had forgotten God, was at the end of his life a leper because of his sin and dying in disgrace. Is rael which had known unprecedent ed prosperity under God’s blessing now hardened its heart nationally against God and was also about to go into eclipse. God needed a man to speak for Him in such an hour, to bring to His people a message of judgment and also of blessed invita tion. To prepare that man, the great Isaiah, God gave a remark able manifestation of His glory and power.It is essential that the man who speaks for God should first see the Lord high and lifted up and to hear of His holiness and glory. The nega tive tone of the present-day mes sage, the lack of enthusiasm and interest in Soly things, the low standards of personal holiness, the failure to preach boldly the truth regarding God’s holy standards are to be explained by the fact that there has been no vision of the eternal holi ness and glory of God. II. Renewing by God’s Power (w. 5-8). To see the holiness of God is to be immediately conscious of one's own sin and unworthiness. The obvi ous conclusion which one draws from that fact is that anyone who is proud, who is not concerned about his own sins and the sins of his peo ple, is living far from God and has either never known or has forgotten about His divine holiness. Isaiah spoke of the pollution of his lips, thereby confessing that his heart was not right. Whereof the heart is full, thereof speaketh the mouth, for we read that “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh” (Matt. 12:34). Remem ber that even though Isaiah was a believer he recognized the need of cleansing. “Then” (v. 6)—what an important word! When Isaiah called out in humble confession, “then” he was cleansed. The turning point is right at that place for any fife. Only when we come to the place of confession and contrition which Isaiah knew, can we expect the Lord to send the cleansing fire and the enabling power. Reformation, turning over a new leaf, character development, all commendable in their place, are not sufficient. There must be a divine cleansing of the life if there is to be a commission to service. III. Realizing God’s Will (Eph. 5: 15-17). The ministry of the Church of God can serve no greater purpose than helping men and women to know the will of God. That wisdom (v. 17) comes through the teaching of God’s Word and through the minis try of the Holy Spirit, both in the church and in the individual. The Church (and that means ev ery member) is to recognize that the evil day in which we live is a challenge to holy and effective liv ing. Time is not to be wasted, or casually used. It is to be redeemed —every moment to count for God.The walk of the believer is to be circumspect, that is, with “pains taking attention to details, under a sense of their importance,” not a foolish walk, but a wise one.IV. Receiving God’s Spirit (5:18- 21). God wishes to fill His children with the Holy. Spirit in such mighty overwhelming power that they are entirely under His control. Such Spirit-filled believers find their joy and satisfaction in the fellowship of those who sing the praises of God from the heart. Being a Christian is not a depressing, sorrowful business. . It makes you glad. It is God’s people who sing and make melody. Some of us who have failed to appreciate this truth should begin now to “get hap py” about our religion. The Holy Spirit leads believers into a life of humility and self-denial (v. 21). Pride and self-exaltation are definitely ruled out. Do not neglect the note of thanksgiving found in verse 20. The Church of Christ has so infinitely much for which to be thankful that actually ingratitude is a sin. How much blessing is lost because of it! Let us “give thanks always for all things.” F Tarragon Vinegar Tarragon vinegar is a favorite in dressing summer salads. The dark green leaves of tarragon are used for seasoning the vinegar. They are used both fresh and dried. This herb needs a little covering of litter and leaves for winter protection. , . . Cage Crickets In the Orient the chirping noise of the house cricket is highly appre ciated and many households keep them in cages, the cages often elab orately wrought and decorated. Two-Beaded Stream - ' The Rhine river rises as a two-S' headed stream in southern Switzer land, enters the Boden See (Lake Constance), and emerges to con tinue its winding 850-mile course to its multi-mouthed outlet in the North sea. In its oceanward jour ney it picks up several important tributaries, such as tbe Lahn, the Neckar, the Main, and the Ruhr from the east, and the Mosel from the west In some stretches the river is an international boundary. It is a frontier between Switzerland and tiny Liechtenstein, between. Switzerland and the bid Austria, be tween Switzerland and Germany, and between France and Germany.. Through Germany the river flows in a geperal northwesterly direc tion, turning sharply west at the Netherlands line to enter the North sea. Freshen Grass With i Fertilizer in Fall ’ Late August or September is the best season to give lawn grass a “lift.” After the hard summer sea son. some refreshments in the way of fertilizer, and possibly lime, is called for. Thin stands of grass are particularly In need of help. If your lawn has not been limed in the last few years, it is suggested that you apply 50 to 75 pounds of ground limestone per 1,000 square feet. This will sweeten the soil and make it possible for the grasses to respond better to fertilizer treatment The addition of 10 tp 20 pounds of fertilizer per 1,000 square feet of lawn will do wonders. Fertilizers such as 5-10-5, 4-12-8 or those of similar ratios are well adapted for thickening lawn grasses. Uniform distribution can be obtained by spreading the material in two di rections. Measure out half of the fer tilizer needed for the lawn and spread it in a north-south direction. Then spread the other half in an east-west direction, and there should be little difficulty in getting even coverage. i Lawns given a tonic in the manner described soon will assume a good healthy color and develop a dense stand of grass. Lawns composed of dense turf will resist invasion by un desirable weeds such as crabgrass, buckhorn and dandelion. Combnstionible Hay ‘ Experienced farmers know that hay, if incompletely cured at time of storage—meaning that it has a moisture content of 25 to 30 per cent — is subject to spontaneous combustion. > Ferk Up Fotato Salad Potato salad will taste better if placed in the refrigerator to chill several hours before serving time.

Vinson Shortly after Fred Vinson was named Secretary of the Treasury he was quoted in the press as say ing “the American people are in the pleasant predicament of having to learn to livte 50% better than they have ever lived before.” When ha made this remark he was talking about a future day, one that had not come then and has not come yet, but a completely possible future day. Hitler was no longer a menace, when the new Secretary spoke of a 50% higher living standard in Amer ica, but Japan still clouded the Pacific. Now that has cleared up also and today’s national problem is economic rather than strategic. The strain is no less, but in a dif ferent place. Ease felt in Amer- ica as firing ceased was like the relief of changing hands with a heavy burden. Load is on VinsonAbout a month ago this column carried an outline of Mr. Vinson’s tax policies which I frankly con sider sound. Now, in view of the changed international picture, it is high time everybody knew more about this generalissimo of post-war finances, czar of economics in the world’s most important country. He is a key man on the team that has to win if liberty, civilization and en lightenment survive. Fred Vinson is 55 years old. Hall a century ago he was playing in the yard of the jailhouse in Louisa, Ky. His father was county jailer. Tlie next year he started to school, . . . His coarse hair is half gray now and he has some loose skin un der his chin but he’s recognized as the “best in his line” and on a job where everybody wishes him well, if that’s success. A Serions Student Louisa, with some 2,000 inhabi tants, is across the Big Sandy river from West Virginia. There young Vinson entered school, there was elected district attorney and from there went to Congress in 1922. At Center College, Danville, Ky., he worked in the library to help pay expenses, took a leading part in ath letics and averaged above 95 in grades all through college and law school. Mr. Vinson is a penetrating think er. He has years of experience in government and he knows taxes. He is a recognized fiscal expert. That’s what put him on the Ways & Means committee and here his ability is still respected. He has been a Fed eral judge, the successful economic stabilizer of this country, also direc tor ot war mobilization and reconversion—the job that’s known as “assistant president.” Io Make More Jobs Vinson has many prime qualifica tions for his present job. Anent his thoroughness, it came out a time or two in connection with his work as chairman of the tax section of the Ways & Means committee that he knew more than his witnesses them selves about testimony they submit ted. Recollection of these incidents naturally tends to keep alive Vin son's influence among congressmen which is a big asset. It is told that he studied before hand the financial statements of big corporations whose officials were to testify, and his questioning them proved repeatedly that he knew more about certain aspects of a cor poration’s business than did its pres ident. This is the man who planned a tax program to create the most jobs, instead of merely raising rev enue for the government, something I l:ave been shouting from the house tops for four years.

Walter E. Isenhnur. Hiddenite. N. C Wheu you walk the path of duty You will bless your native land, And your life will shine in beauty That’s far better and more grand Than to own a rid) man’s palace, Or to make a mighty name, If you fill mankind with malace, Or do not deserve your fame. Duty calls the man of learning To a life of joble deeds, And for which he should be year ning Like the saint with righteous So his life will not be squandered Nor his time be spent in vain. Like the aimless who has wan dered Far from God and heav’nly gain. Duty speaks to men of weakness. Men unlettered, unrefined; Speaks to men of grace apd meek ness, Men of every class and kind, Calling us to live and labor For the uplift of the race, That we be to each a neighbor As we fill a Christian’s place. Then to be a soul quite willing To discharge your duty well, Means today that you ate filling Places that will surely tell For die welfare of our nation, And the glory of our Lord, And when ends your life’s pro bation You’ll receive a great reward.

WARD, H. L. GOBBLE. Black Book of Memory A prominent Hickory man told a representative of The Record day or two ago, that some of the salespeople, particularly in grocery stores, don’t seem to know ’‘the war is over.” They forget that even if the supply of certain arti cles is scarce, there shonld never be a scarcity of courtesy.. The exasperating tnqniiy “Don’t yon know there’s a war on?” was was so over-used, that we were in hopes it would not be necessary to remind anybody thit the war is now over. However, it does seem that some thoughtless persons forget that V J Day has come and gone, and it is time for all of as (0 settle down to the business of getting back to nor mal routine We are reminded of what Prof. R. L. Patton, superintendent of the Bnrke county schools, tad to sav in this connection recently, in an address to a local retail sales or ganization. He told of how in. different he, found some “soda jerks” in a Morganton drug store where he weut to make a purchase, and added that it is high time all business people remember that the public has a ‘ little black book” in which notations of discourteous treatment are being made for later reference. It is no malicious attitude which causes customers who are entitled to courtesy, to set down in their “little black book” of memory, en tries that will cause ■ them, when merchandise hecomes plentiful and they can have a choice of trading places, to boycott the business bou ses where they were needlessly of fended. Common couitesy is essential to the conduct of businrss, and it should be abundant even when the supply of what the cnstomer wants is exhausted or unobtainable — Hickory Daily Record. Mistaken Belief Senator Hoey is disguested, out raged and raging over the picket* in? of food plants in Michigan where a half a million dollars wotth of government-owned Iood is stored, the Army being prevented . from' sending it to American troops over seas, described as in urgent need of it. It seems ridiculovs to 'be Senat or that the Army can be turned back by a picket line. He goes so far as to assert that “America still belongs to all the people”. Now now, Senator! It formerly belonged to all the people. A small minority now seems to. own it, anont a dozen ruthless, mad individuals who are doing their best to destroy it.— Charlotte Observer. Wife Beater Given Whipping Upper Marlboro. Md.—Tenlasb es with a whip have been adminis tered to a convinced wile beater by the Sheriff of Prince Georges county in Upper Marlboro,. Mary land. On the receiving end was a 175.pound gas company employe, Floyd Busching, who was found guilty in court of beating up bis 98 pound wife atter a beer party. Circuit Court Judge Charles C. Marbury ordered the punishment nndar a state law passed in 1882 He declared that jail sentence wonld have deprived Mrs. Buscb- iug and their children of support. Senator George Raddiffe of Mary land has termed the punishment medieval. Twenty witnesses were present, and one of them. Iailer Ellis Mid dleton, said that his father used to whip him harder that the Sheriff Whipped Busching. A doctor ex amined Bunching after the punish ment, and pronounced him all right. New Dealers Have No New Plan After twelve years of the New Deal policy for furnishing the peo ple with jobs bv government action has yet been devised except the time-honored one of spending Uncle Sam’s money to provide work for those unable to find jobs. The plan was Issued from 1933 . to the outbreak of the World War and was never entirely abandoned. True, during the war there was not so much of it—although bureaucracy was not liquidated. But even the government of the New Deal spent money that nrovided jobs for the peoole. Job providing was not the defeat of the Axis But it is not to he successfully denied that it was this necessary expeuditure for war purpose which provided jobs. With reconstruction not yet com pleted there is still a Iobor short age in most parts of the country. But the statemen and politicians a gain are talking about the govern ment’s duty to provide jobs for the multitudes if private industry fails. Wbat method has been devised i It is a new one? Not at all. Pre sident Truman’s advisers have suggested nothing different from the method used by President Roosevelt’s administration -lavish expenditure of the taxpayers* tnon- ev. That plan is the backbone of the legislation recently passed un der the name of t*ie Murray bill. It is the same old New Deal measure although In itself a measure which does mean mneh. Perhaps some of these days a new statesman will arise with a new plan to create jobs by the gov ernment fiat Bnt we doubt it. There just doesn’t seem to be any snch method Yet politicians hesi. tate to recommend turning off the Federal money spigot. They think it will mean political suicide. Per haps so. And yet it is a generally accepted fact that the New Dealers didn’t win in 1944 through promise of lavish expenditure but because a majority of the voters belivved that President Roosevelt could shorten the war more quickly than could Governor Dewey. That one proposition, or cam paign issue, will forever be a dis puted point.—Ex Old EnooghTo Walk After annojncement was made of a cut in ration points for buter the Federal Department of Agricul ture announced that the govern ment would begin selling 100 mil lion pounds, consisting of 80 mil lion released by the Army, 13 mil lion by tbe department and seven million by the War Shipping ad ministration. Tnat will help the butter sttua tion, bnt prospective purchasers mifcht Well ask bow old is this but butter. Tt bas evidently been held for some time and even in October it was the plan to release it after Nov ember 1; in fact, onlv to begin to release it. More age will be added by the time it gets on people’s tables. ’It will be old enough to walk onto tbe tables. Has butter become like cotton and wheat, able to be kept indefinitely? And how much of it will h..ve een wasted, spoiled, lost, worthless? It. has been a long time since this butter had anv relation to a cow. The cows that produced it have —many jf them—already passed on made into millions of pounds of meat, and much of that hoarded and stored by tbe hundreds of tons in Federal warehouses. Perhaps that will be released, old and spoil ed after much wastage, about Jan uary ist. —Charlotte Observer. Ku Klux Again Burning Crosses Atlanta —The Ku Kiux Klan is at at it agMn, hurning ciosses a*oo stone mountain not far from At- Ianta Georgia. Dr. Samuel Green, the Grand Dragon of the Georgia KUn, says that markets tbe end of one war, and the start of another by the Klan. The organization did not burn any crosses during World War II because, says Green, it was necessary that all factions unite to win tbe war. But now, he said, tbe bnrning cross is symbolic of what the burning cross is symbolic ot what the Klan stands for. It is fighting communism. The newspaper Macon News bas printed an editorial voicing dismay. It said the renewed activity bv K.K.K. bas produced a feeling of hopelessness, of fu'ility of against an unseen enemy of law and order Grren, did not like that, editorial. The Klan, be sas as mncb right to exist as the masons, tbe Rotarians. or any other organizatoin. He dis claims that he is prejudiced against negroes and Jews and that the cross-burning served to intimidate negroes. If we burned a cross in a ne gro’sback yard,” says Green, “th. t might be intimidation. But burn ing It on top of Stone mountain is perfectly all right.” Save Your Tears One of tbe first reactions to an nouncement of operation of a me chanical cotton picker in North Ca. rollna is concern over the band pickers it would disolace. What will all these people do for a living now? AU what people? Cotton picking labor is nearly as scarce as nylon hose. The fields are full of cotton but the people are some where else. Thev don’t Ilke to work, even at tbe wages paid. Farmers in Hoke and Robeson counties are paying up to three dollars a hundred pounds for pick ing cotton, but still cotton will be in the fields, unpicked, when 1946 comes. The machine picks as much cot ton as 50 hand workers. Oh, the poor 50 who will be displaced, how pitiable! Wbat will they do? Save your tears They will be doing just wbat they are doing now, shunning tbe fields, declining to pick They seem to be doing all rigdt at that. Nobody bas yet fonnd anv former cotton pickers starving to death —Charlotte Ob. server. Gets Medal 27 Years Later Charles A.

Rationing of this com modity officially ended Oct. 30 th, but dealers' shelves throughout this nation, with few exceptions, are still pitiful to behold. Shoes there are to be sure, but sizes are broken, and better grades are slow in reach ing merchants. More pleutiful supplies are pro mised for the near future—provid ed no major labor troubles occur in the shoe industry. There seem to be more women’s shoes than foot wear for men and children, and also there are more shoe boxes than shoes, for some merchants, to bide tbe deplorable state ot their stocks, adopted tbe practive of filling their shelves with etup ies. just for tbe sake of looks.—Ex. An Appropriate Prayer Charlotte Observer It may be somewhat banal and bromidic to repeat, bnt it is at least exceedingly time to be reminded that— A politician has been defined as one who is thinking about the next election. This apt assertion could well be bung as a motto on the wall of the office of the President of the United States. It would certainly be no less ap. propriate to be conspicuously exhi. bited in the chambers of the two houses of Congress. Of cource, it applies also to tbe leaders In onr national life outside of political environs—the leaders of labor, tbe leaders of industry, the leaders in every walk and station of American influence and prestige. .This nation is in critical need to day of Statesmen. It needs them as desperately as it needs to get rid of some of its poll, ticians. The oft-repeated prayer of the poet was never more apropos so far as the welloeing of this nation is concerned: God give us meu. The time de. mands. Strong men, great hearts, true faith, and willing bands; Men whom the lust of office can not buy; Men who posses opinions and a will; Men who have honor, men who will not lie; Men who can stand before a de. magne. And dam bis treacherous fiat, teries without wiuking; Tall men, sun crowned, who live above the fog In public duty and in private thinking. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. I Hollywood Adds ‘Atomic’ Touch to Nation’s Strikes PRESIDENT IN MISSOURI WASHINGTON. — The next two months of President Truman’s life are filled with junkets similar to that which he has just taken through the heart of the Mark Twain country. At first, newsmen covering the White House figured that he took these trips for political reasons, but they have now changed their minds. The President takes these junkets because he loves them. Never since that fateful April day when he took the oath of office has he had more fun than at Caruthersville, Mo., where he swapped yarns with the local postmaster, got up at 6:15 to “spit” in the Mississippi river, and ran out in the street to ring the bell of a small-scale locomotive. The locomotive was being conduct ed through the streets of Caruthers ville by the “Forty and Eight” club of the American Legion (commemo rating the “40 men—8 horses” ca pacity of French freight cars in the last war). Suddenly the President of the United States spied it. Per haps it reminded him of 1918 when he unloaded artillery horses from those same French freight cars in the Meuse sector. Anyway, with a shout to War Mobilizer John Snyder, who once worked behind the cashier’s cage of small-town Missouri-Ar- kansas banks, Harry went over to the locomotive. Right then and there the war mobilizer and the President of the United States had the time of Uieir lives staging a locomotive bell-pulling contest. SECRET SERVICE FROWNS Another incident the secret service men didn’t like was when the Presi dent arose shortly after 6 a. m., left the austere frame 42-room Majestic hotel which had been cleared of guests in his honor, and walked down to the Mississippi river. It seems that there is an old custom in those parts which makes it incum bent upon a visitor to spit in the Fa ther of Waters. The secret service men, not being in the know regarding this spitting custom, were taken by surprise. One of them, however, spotted the truant President of the United States am bling off in the direction of the river, sounded the alarm, and a few min utes later, four bodyguards were trailing him. After Harry got through spitting, .he skimmed a few stones out over the river, found that his technique as a ston e-skimmer hadn’t changed since boyhood days, and was then content to go back to town. On the way, he met two old Ca ruthersville cronies, Nearl Helm, county wholesale liquor dealer, and James Reeves, former commander of the American Legion. They swapped stories as they walked down to the post office, where they dropped in to see Postmaster Bailey S. Brooks. There they swapped some more.* * « BOMBS FOR CONGRESS Six members of a congressional committee sailing to Europe last August were nearly scared out of their wits while on the Queen Mary. Headed by Rep. Louis Rabaut of Michigan, a subcommittee of the house appropriations committee had debated whether to fly or to go by boat. Finally they decided to sail— but they wished they hadn’t. The group which decided to enjoy some relaxation on steamer chairs included Dean Gillespie of Colorado, Robert Jones of Ohio, Butler Hare of South Carolina, Thomas O’Brien of Illinois and Judge John Kerr of North Carolina. Kerr had argued for the boat trip and finally con vinced his colleagues. The congressmen were just begin ning to relax on their first night out from New York when an army of ficer came to Chairman Rabaut with a disturbing message. “The skipper thought you gentle men ought to know,” he said, “that we have just received a code mes sage from the FBI. They report they have discovered there are a number of incendiary bombs on the boat scheduled to go off at midnight. “There are several companies of Japanese - American troops on board,” the officer told Rabaut, “and Japan is still at war with the United States.” Rabaut called his colleagues to gether and told them the news. Judge Kerr’s first comment was: “I wonder if the skipper has ordered airplanes to hover around the ship." AU were alerted the entire night while the ship’s crew searched un successfully for the bombs. No trace of them was ever found, but the rest ful relaxation the congressmen had hoped for was not achieved until they set foot on solid ground once again.' • • • CAPITAL CHAFF C Congratulations to Gen.

So the congress passed a bill providing for the distribution Df seed corn to the farmers. Presi- ient Cleveland vetoed the bill and sent it back to . congress with a strong veto message wherein he stated that the government of the United States was set up to be sus tained by the people of the United States and not tcj, sustain the people of the United States. That fallacy in the concept of our. federal government was enunciated a half century ago, and yet in this conservative congress in the year 1945 there are some who still adhere to that archaic belief . . . that it is not the business of government to help the people of this country . . . that it is not even the business of government to adopt a policy of gov ernment guaranteeing the people anything. This attitude on the part of some senators was definitely apparent in the debate on the so-called full em ployment bill when the opponents, led by Senator Taft (R., Ohio) were able to emasculate the language of the bill to such an extent that it is more or less meaningless as it went over to the house. ‘The Right to Worte The original bill, as it was intro duced by Senators Minrray (D., Mont.) and Thomas (D., Utah) con tained this language: "All Ameri cans able to work and seeking work have the right to useful, remunera tive, regular and full-time employ ment. . . .” Senator Taft questioned this “right” of these Americans and declared, in effect, that it was not the business of this government to guarantee that right by any law. And of course the answer is that under the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights . . . if Americans do not have the right to work they have no rights. It finally came down to a point in the debate that the Ohioan conceded we possibly did have the right, but it was no business of government to set that right up as a governmental policy, and so the splitting of hairs began. Columnists, radio commentators, senators, congressmen, lobbyists have taken up the cry, “where did this bill come from?” “what does it propose to do?” "what’s behind the measure?” and, “what does it actu ally mean?” and other questions. Insofar as this reporter can learn, the full employment bill is backed not only by this government, but by 50 governments throughout the world and was drawn up pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Interna tional Labor Organization’s conven* tion at Philadelphia in May of 1944, which sponsored full employment as an objective of government. Backed by SO Nations Senator Thomas was an American delegate to that international con vention. Labor and governmental delegates from 50 nations were pres ent. The resolution was adopted unanimously. The full employment bill, then, is this government’s at tempt to give expression to that con cept of government as committed at the Philadelphia convention. In his testimony before the Banldng and Currency committee of the Senate, Senator Thomas said: “The declaration of Philadelphia was in reality the first serious study to try to bring about that condition which is promised in the “four free doms”—a condition which would make freedom from want a real freedom. In the declaration at Phil adelphia there were many theories and many different ideas sponsored but among those ideas was the ides of sponsoring the concept of full em ployment as an objective of govern ment.” As a matter of fact guaranteeing a person the right to a job is not new in our government. That guarantee is given to re turning veterans in the Selective Service act . . . that they .get their old job back. The whole civil service system is builded upon that same guarantee of gov ernment; the unemployment compensation act is also attuned to the right of a man to work; many of the new laws, including the act governing- disposal of Surplus Property, which start off with the words, “in order to pro mote full employment etc.,” are tied in with the right to work. Aid to Private Enterprise The point is that whether the con-, gress says a man has the right to work or not, the fact is, that in this COimtry he does have that right, and the important sections of the full employment bill are those section? which set up the machinery for pro. viding full employment . . . the an nual national survey by the Presi dent . . . the incentives offered pri- vate industry to expand, to provide jobs, placing the responsibility, ii you please, on private enterprise to bring about full employment.

THE SCORT THUS FAR: Thunder head, or the Goblin as be Is commonly known, is the only white horse ever horn on the Goose Bar ranch In Wyomln;. Be (iqws from an ugly, misshapen eolt to a powerful yearling, showing more and more characteristics of his treat crandsire, a wild stallion called the Al bino- One day the Goblin wanders south ward into the mountains and finds a high valley where wild horses live. Ba encounters the Albino, and barely es capes ‘ with hil life. Meanwhile his ijother Flicba hears another colt named Touch and Go. Goblin returns, badly Injured. ‘ When bis wounds are healed, Ken McLaughlin, his 12-year-old owner, begins the difficult task of training him. CHAPTER Xn Late -one afternoon, after an hour of such struggling, a fury came into Ken and he began to lash Thun- derhead with‘his crop. He lashed him until he was exhausted. With his other hand he held the reins and forced the horse this way and that. With his heels he Spurred him. Tears of weakness and rage stood in his eyes. Suddenly Thunderhead had the impulse to obey. Generations of breeding had put aknowledge into him of the horse’s part of horseman ship, a realization that obedience to a skilled rider makes one out of the two, makes teamwork out of the ride, something almost like a dance, a performance that a horse cannot achieve alone. He leaned his mouth against the feather lightness of Ken's hands, and, obedient to them, exercised skills that he had never exercised before. There was grace to his movement now, grace and con trol and technique. There was joy in it. He stopped fighting the bit. As if he had learned all that Ken had been trying to teach him, or had known it all along, he swung right or left at the least touch of the rein on his neck or the lean of his rider’s body. His steps were pliant, pranc ing. He delighted in the quick, easy turns, in responding to the hands that lifted him into a longer and longer stride.When Thunderhead achieved obe dience, he enlarged himself. The skill and the will of another being were added to his own skill and will. He was having a new experience and it ran through his body like quicksilver. He loved Nell, but nobody had fought him and warred with him and lashed him and taught IUm obedience but Ken. At last Ken let him. out fully and urged him with voice and hands and heels. Thunderhead began to run. His hoofs reached forward and seized the ground with a slashing cut that barely touched and rebounded. A feeling of extraordinary ease went through Ken. No effort was needed, there was no more struggling, he and the colt were one at last. The fight was over and now —this! Mastery! Underneath him was something of such strength and pow er as he had never dreamed of. It surged into him. It was his own. A dump of rocks was ahead of them. Ken did not swerve—the least tightening of his knees, lift of his hands—and the stallion sailed over, hardly altering his stride. The fence over there by the road! Take it, Thundferhead, and the long soaring leap—the light landing— Everything seemed different to Ken. He looked around. He saw, felt, apprehended as he never had before, as if he had been let into a secret world that no one else knew anything about. The wind whipped his cheeks and filled his mouth and beat upon his eyeballs and whistled in his ears. The pace! The incredi- . ble speed! The strange floating gait! Those long reaching strides seemed almost "slow, like the overhand strokesvjrf: a swimmer. Then the lightning-quick slash at the ground, and again the rush through the-air. No obstacles could stop him. There were none. Theft floated over them.The world rolled out from under the stallion’s hoofs. They were cov ering ground Ken had never seen be- : fore. He made no effort to guide him. They were on the mountains —they were in the sky—Clouds, trees, earth, streamed past. A group of antelopes! He saw their fright ened leaps—their startled faces— they were gone! Ken’s consciousness ' was fused with all that there was in the world. He had gathered it in. He was the pulse-beat. He was the kernel. This is it. He sat at the supper table that night in a dream, unable to speak or eat.■ He wondered if Thunderhead would ever do it again. When he had dismounted and unsaddled the colt and had stood IooUng into his face—looking into the future, his hands trembling because he knew, now, beyond all doubt, what the horse could do—he saw that Thun- derhead still hated him. The dark, white-ringed eye looked at him side ways, viciously. “How did the colt go today, Ken?” “He went—better, dad.” “Did you get him to go forward under fhe saddle?” “Yes, sir." “Did you get him running?" “Sort of—”Rob McLaughlin looked search- ingly at his son. He asked no more.It was a warm August evening. Rqb was driving to a ranch southwest of his own to inspect a' mare He had been told she was a regis tered thoroughbred, had been a rac er, and was for sale cheap. The number of his own brood mares was down to sixteen. They were getting old. He had lost four in the last two years, and two more must be sold before fall because they would not live through another win ter on the range. Colorado farmers who kept a few horses stabled through the winter might buy them for the sake of the foals they would drop in the spring. ,They would bring very little at auction but any thing would be better than feeding them to the coyotes OiKthe Saddle Back. Nell was driving with him. They were on one of the back roads, not much more than wheel tracks on the prairie grass. It was at just that moment of the evening when headlights are of no use and day light is not enough. The car swept ahead so swiftly, and at times so roughly, that Nell was about to pro test, but one look at Rob’s face stopped her. He had his angry driv ing look. Nell withdrew a little into her own comer and sighed. It might have been a pleasant evening. She always enjoyed a drive at the end of the day when her work was done, but if he was going to be like this— “Gypsy hasn’t long to go either,” said Rob abruptly. “At this rate, my band of brood mares will soon be cut in half.” "Couldn’t you put some of the younger mares in the brood mare bunch?” asked Nell. “There are those three five-year-olds—the sor rels—they’re wonderful mares.” ‘To be bred back to .their own sire?” “That’s line-breeding, isn’t it? “A new purebred stallion!” ex claimed Nell. You’re always talking about it.” “But you can’t do it indiscriminately. They have to be picked in dividuals. There isn’t one of those mares good enough.”“What’ll you do for brood mares then, Rob?” “Buy some more, I suppose, the way I bought all the others. Travel around to the race tracks—pick up mares of good blood that can’t race any more.”Nell made no answer. Rob want ed to fight. He didn’t want to see a way out or to make any compro mise. She changed the subject. “Rob, I’ve been thinking about Thunderhead. Ken is so awfully happy about him now—the speed he’s developed. Do you think it’s absolutely necessary to geld him?” “He’s a two-year-old,” said Rob harshly. “All the other twos are to be gelded, why shouldn’t he be?” “Ken is simply having a fit about it,” said Nell.“Ken is a pain in the neck.” “Besides,” said Nell, “he’s not really two yet — just twenty-two months.” Rob explained, with weary pa tience as if to a child of subnormal intelligence, “We wait until they are two to geld them in order to give their necks time to develop., But Thunderhead’s neck is already de veloped like a three-year-old’s. He could have been gelded six months ago.” Rob’s tone of voice served notice on her that he didn’t want to hear any more of that. She closed her lips tight but the seething thoughts went on behind them. They them selves were heading into financial disaster just as fast as they could gallop. It was this fall that Howard was to go east to Bostwick’g preparatory School, and the tuition was twelve hundred dollars and half of it had to be paid in advance. Where was that money going to come from? And the money for his outfit and traveling expenses? She hadn't dared ask Rob. There would have to be eight hundred dollars by September the tenth. Perhaps there wouldn’t be. At the thought of aban doning their plans for the boys’ edu> cation her hand began to tap nerv ously on her knee. No. Anything but that. Itwouldonlybetwoyears at Bostwick’s and then into West Point and no more expense.' A way must be found. But that wasn’t all. What about their own expenses for the coming year? They would need two thousand dollars to live on, and there was a thousand dollars of un paid bills—hardware, veterinary, el* evator, machine repair shop—and that five thousand dollar note to be paid in October—it had to be paid. Last year the man had extended it for a year and said that was the last time. . She sat nervously upright. “Rob —is Bellamy going to take the lease for the sheep again this fall?”“I don’t know. Haven’t asked him yet. But I suppose he will. Why?’* The last word was shot at her belligerently. “Well—I was just wondering. The lease money—that fifteen hundred dollars—it means a good deal to us.” Rob playfully grabbed her by the head with his free hand and shook her. “Now you’re worrying about money. Don’t bother your litfie head about that. I’ll attend to it.” “Ouch!” said Nell, catching at her head. “You hurt.” She rearranged her hair, and returned to her thoughts. Rob, of course, would nev er see or think what he didn’t want to. But suppose he were different? Suppose he were openminded and reasonable—what ought they to do? What did people do when they had spent half their lives doing some thing that was, apparently, going to bring them to the poorhouse if con tinued? They did not fling good years after bad. They changed. They took another road. But Rob? It was as if he were hypnotized—as if he could not turn or change. He wouldn’t even discuss it. Suddenly she felt angry. Here they were partners in the greatest possible en terprise—family life—and she must suffer the consequences of failure as well as he, yet he would never al low discussions on unpleasant themes. He would shout at her, browbeat her, create such friction and unpleasantness that she could not bear it—it wasn’t fair. Suddenly Rob burst out: “I can see that I’ve been awfully dumb*** . “What do you mean?” “I’ve always thought that you were with me.” “With you?” “In everything I did. The ranch, my work, the horses, my plans—ev erything.” i “But Rob—of course I—”“You used to be,” he interrupted. “I don’t'know when you changed. I’ve just been going along like a fool taking it for granted.” “Taking what for granted?” “That you had confidence in me.” “You oughtn’t to put it that way. Married people ought to talk things over with each other and you never will. It isn’t that I haven’t confidence in you—” “But you haven’t. That Is, you have no confidence in my ever mak ing a go of Uie horses. I know I will if I hang on. I’ll force it to succeed. You used to know it too. You were with me. But you don’t know it any longer.”Nell was silent. “ Just exactly what would you like me to do?” he asked grimly.“I—I—don’t know—” “That’s just it. You don’t know. You don’t know anything about it. But while I’m doing all I can to make a go of it—lying awake nights planning how I can keep up or im prove my horses and find the best markets, you’re just sitting back waiting for the crash so that you can pick up the pieces.” “Well,” she suddenly whispered, “we are on the downgrade, have been for years. You’ve said it your self. You’re the one who told me. You’re the one who’s worrying your self sick about it. And we're* not making any sort of change in our lives, in our plans, so why expect a change in the results?” Rob stood facing her, feet apart* his dark head, so significant and arresting, dropped <ta ids chest. The moonlight changed his ruddiness of skin to a greenish pallor. Suddenly Nell held out her arms —nothing mattered—she went to him. He pushed her away. “Don’t, Nell, I can’t stand it.” She backed away, feeling humili ated. She might have known he didn’t want comfort or coddling, be wanted his head up again—before her. But what could she do about that? While she stood, clasping her hands frantically together and fight ing the tears that in a moment could be a flood, Rob walked away from her and disappeared. In such moments of unendurable hurt, lovers run away from each other.Nell walked down toward the cot* rals and stood against the fence. Presently she saw the horses approaching, Thunderhead and Toudi And Go. He came to the fence, she spoke his name and held out her hand. He came close, she laid her hand on his face. "Thunderhead — Thunderhead—” He felt her grief as horses always do, and shoved his nose against her. Touch And Go must do as her big brother did and pushed her nose up for petting too. When Nell went in, half an hour later, she found Rob sitting in bis den, reading the paper, knees com fortably crossed and pipe in his mouth.

No sugar is re quired when one of the suggested substitutes is used, and the bever age can be quickly made a short time before guests arrive. With so many families returning to the old home town, and couples who married during the war final ly getting settled together, wel come parties are becoming quite the style. Social e n g a g e m e n t books which looked blank are noVt filled again. Yes, entertaining is due for a re vival. This is the time, because the holiday season is approaching in full glory. Food is not the problem it was last year although there still are restrictions, and it’s fairly easy to serve something nice and make the table, look its prettiest. If the group is mixed and there are a number of men' (big eaters, now that they have learned to have lots of chow or go to mess regularly!), plan to have a substantial cas serole dish with some hearty trim mings like big salads and rich-looking cakes or pastry. Or, if the affair is to be just a snack, serve bread with a.choice of fillings and the usual accompani ments like potato chips, pickles, olives, relishes, and punch or some favorite beverage. Suggestiim L Assorted Bread: Oatmeal, Raisin, White and Rye.Sandwich Fillings: Kippy Cheese and Peanut Butter. Relishes: Olives, Radishes, Carrot Sticks, and Celery Hearts. Beverage: Orange Juice or Fiesta Punch. . Nippy Cheese Filling. Combine equal parts of cream cheese and butter. Add salt and paprika to taste and I teaspoon each of finely minced parsley, pick les, olives and green pepper. Flavor with sardine paste. Peanut Butter Filling. Peanut butter may be served alone or it may be combined with any of the following for a delicious filling: jam, chopped bacon or grat ed raw carrots. Fiesta Punch. (Makes H gallon)I cup strong tea 3A cup sugar, honey or corn syrup Vz cup lemon juice K i ciqts orange juiceI cup grape juice I quart water Make the strong tea by pouring I cup boiling water over 4 teaspoons of tea. Dissolve sugar or substi tutes in the hot, strained tea. (The tea should steep first for S min utes.) For a hot punch, combine the tea with the fruit juices and add the water which should be boil ing hot. Serve at once. For cold punch, chill the tea and combine with well-chilled fruit juices and iced water. Garnish the punch with slices of orange and lemon.

Give him a try with bread, raisin, nut, potato, or best of all a real home baked loaf. He may be tired of dark tack and stale white bread, and anxious to try something new and different.

Cv is able to bring readers this weekly column on problem of the veteran and serviceman and his family. Questions may be addressed to toe above Bureau and they will be answered in a subsequent column. No replies cm be made direct by mail, but. only in the column which will appear in this newspaper regularly, Sarplm Property Sales Sweeping revision of surplus pro) erty regulations in favor of WorI War H veterans has been announced by W. Stuart Symington, adminis trator, after a personal investigation Which indicated that some disposal agencies were giving veterans “the run-around.” . The changes lndlude elimination of the $2,500 limit on preferential pur chases and within reasonable amounts, there will be no limit; Permission for a veteran entering the retail business to purchase an initial stock of goods for resale. Hitherto, under interpretation of the G.I. bill, a veteran could buy materials to establish a store, but could not obtain preference on stock for sale; , Permission for veterans to deal directly with disposal agencies such as the department of commerce and Reconstruction Finance corpor ation;Special permission for veterans to buy automotive or other equipment required by his employment. It is said that few autos are available, however;, Provision that credit may be ex tended to veterans under terms and conditions established by the dis- posal agency which sells the goods. Thus, it will be possible for veter ans to obtain loans from commerce department and RFC as well as the Smaller War Plants corporation. Information now is that the RFC will soon take over all disposal from the commerce department, which only recently assumed sale of con sumer goods from treasury. Questions and Answers Q. When my twin brother entered the service he designated me beneficiary of his insurance. After a hasty marriage he made, he in formed me and my parents he had not and had no intention of chang ing the beneficiary. After his death I was notified by the insurance de partment that I was his beneficiary. His wife has made some sort of claim for the insurance and has held up settlement for 16 months. Can anyone but the insured change the beneficiary or can the insurance department decide who is to get it?—J. F. K., Palo Alto, Calif. A. No one can change the benefi ciary but the insured. If you are named the beneficiary in the policy, then you are entitled to the insur ance and the Veterans administra tion says the wife or no one else can hold it up 16 minutes. File your claim for the insurance with the Vet erans administration. Q. Witii reference to sale of government surplus properly and the $2,500 amount sold to an individual, I am much interested In further details on this matter -and any infor mation relative to locatiim of these surplus property boards will be much appreciated.—J. A. V., Hing- ham, Mont.A. The $2,500 limit has recently been removed. Your nearest Small er War Plants Board is at Boise, Idaho, 210 Capital Securities Bldg. Your nearest department of com merce board is at Denver, Region Nine, 1030 15th street. Suggest you write to these boards for further details. - ' : Q. I want to know if a man 27 years old, Who has been in the navy almost two years and has two kids, the oldest four years and the baby can’t walk, can get a discharge on this condition soon.—Wife,-Coweta, Okla. A. No, the minimum number of navy points for enlisted personnel as of November I is 41 points. From your letter, your husband has only about 36 points, if he has had no overseas duty. Q. My husband is a seaman in the navy. I have asked assistance of the Red Cross to pay my hospital bill for an operation. They said “No” and recommended the Navy Relief. I wrote them stating conditions; their answer was to' loan, me the money until I'eould work to pay it back. Wasn’t I entitled to medical care?—Mrs. E. D., Taylorville, N.C. A. The navy department says you were definitely entitled to medical care if you applied to the navy medical dispensary before your op eration. Suggest you apply to the nearest medical dispensary and they will inform you as to your stab us. Q. I was discharged from the navy under honorable conditions. The discharge reads, "BuPers-Bu- Med Joint Ltr.” Conld yon please tell me what this means?—R. J. A., Hawthorne, Calif. A. It means Bureau of Personnel- Bureju of Medics Joint Letter, the authority, under which your dis charge was given. Q. Is it true if a boy enlists In the navy reserve at 17, that he is automatically released one day preceding his 21st birthday?—Mrs. E. R. M., Tule Lake, Calif. A. The navy department says yes.

Arkansas Economic Security Back in 1865 senators and repre sentatives in the Congress of the United States began drawing $5,000 a year; $100 a week. That was good pay 80 years ago but a first-class welder can do better now. Congress men have had two raises in salary since then. The last one was 20 years ago when they started earn ing $10,000 a year which was, at the time, a comfortable living for them.A great many executives in pri vate enterprise earn more money than senators although they do not claim superior ability. Why do our legislators not earn more? Because their salaries are fixed by law and they themselves are the gentlemen who make the laws. They could vote themselves a raise in pay but there is always reluctance to introduce such a bill. Throughout GovernmentThere are politics in it, of course. Revenue measures never are popu lar. Congressmen who vote for a dip out of Mr. Taxpayer’s pocket come to regret it on election day sometimes, even when the expendi ture was a wise one. That’s exactly why employees in the Post Oflfice Department haven’t had a boost in pay since the congressmen did, a matter of 20 years ago.Wage rates in private industry have advanced from 42 cents to $1 an hour in the last 20 years. They have more than doubled. Informed au thorities say that living costs have gone up 30% or more during that time. Doubled pay for workers in private industry offsets the living costs that are about one-third high er, but what about government peo ple from mail clerks to senators? Ask for Consideration One of the biggest newspapers in my state published an advertise ment recently, calling the attention of the people of Arkansas to the un happy plight of the postal em ployees who serve them. The dis play advertisement was bought and paid for by the postal workers them selves. In a diplomatic way they are asking their neighbors to help them ask Congress for better wages. I want to see the postal people earning more money. I favor the passage of currently proposed legis lation to boost the pay of senators and representatives 25% or better. I hope to see the day when a self- respecting poor man can afford to represent his state in costly and wealthy Washington. These are de tails however. It is wrong in prin ciple that government employees wait 20 years for a raise. Dangerous Bureaueraey The important thing is that every workman who quits a job in pri vate industry to enter government employ gets' his wage scale frozen. The change of work may bring more pay but that’s, temporary. Whoever works at that job a generation from now will probably be earning the same amount-and spending a lot more to live. Remember that the laborer of today is earning senatori al pay for 1865. These facts are understood well by men of industry and leaders in labor movements. It is encouraging to observe how the Labor-Management Charter, signed in Washington last March by labor union executives and prbminent men of business, deals with the subject In brief it states: Private enterprise is the necessary foundation for the welfare of labor as well as management.

What Wat Happening In Davie Before The New Deal Uted Up The Alphabet, Drowned The Hogt and Plowed Up The Cotton and Corn. (Davie Record, Nov. 17, 1926) Mocksville seed eotton 4.60. William Stockton, of Shelby, was a week-end visitor. Mrs. John L. Foster, of County Line, was in town Monday. Mrs. J. B. Johnstonespent Wed nesday in Winston-Salem shop ping. Miss Kathryn Meroney, of Char lotte, spent the week-end in town with her parents. G. E. Hom remains very ill, his friends will be sorry to leam. E. M. Hobson, of Silver Street, S. C., was in town Wednesday on business. , Miss Sophia Richards, of the high school faculty spent the week end with her parents at Davidson. The many friends of Mrs. Kate Holman will be sorry to leam she eontinues quite ill. AU hope for her a complete recovery. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Foote and children, of Crewe, Va., spent the week-end in and around town with relatives and friends. Revs. W. B. Waff and J. F. Kirk and C. B. Mooney left yes terday morning for Wilmington to attend the Baptist State Con vention which convened in that city yesterday for a three day ses sion. Thos. W. Rich has purchased from the Bettie Rich estate, a lot 100x200 feet on comer of N. Main and Cherry streets. Consideration $1,500. Mr. Rich will erect a re sidence on this property in die near futnre. This is a fine piece of real estate. Among those who attended die funeral and bnrial of Mr. Charlie Cashwell, son of Rev. and Mrs. Cashwell, of Statesville, were Rev. and Mrs. W. B. Waff, Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Baity, Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Green, Rev. J. L. Kirk and L. P. Cartner. Wade Reavis, who was badly injured in an auto wreck near Oak Grove three weeks ago, died early Wednesday morning, death resulting from pneumonia. Mr. Reavis had been able to be up litde since being injured and his recovery was expected until pneu monia developed. He was about 23 years old. The body was laid -to rest at Sandy Springs Friday. He is survived by his parents, one sister and several brothers. Mr. and Mrs. William Hutch ins, of R. 2, announce the mar riage of their daughter Seba to J. Wade Fulton, on Saturday, No vember the thirteenth, nineteen hundred and twensy-six, Winston- Salem, North Carolina. O f much interest here and else where is the report from Raleigh that Governor McLean had decid ed not to extend clemency to Ida Ball Warren, who is serving a 30- year sentence in State’s prison at Raleigh for murder and for the next two years at least the last ray of hope has faded and she will have to serve die remainder of her term unless some succeed ing governor grants her a parole or pardon. Miss Eva Call, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Call, of this city, a student for four years at North Carolina College for Women, at Greensboro, made a record during the past four years that but few girls make while in school. For four years she carried the same umbrella every time she went a- way to school and always brought it back during every vacation. She did not miss a single lesson dur ing the four years. The Comforter Rev. Walter E. Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. Shordy before die departure of our blessed Saviour from this world He told His disciples that He would pray die Father, and that He would give them another Comforter, and that He would a- bide with them forever. He also said, ‘'But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Fa ther will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remem brance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” Thank God for the Comforter, even die blessed Holy Ghost. We, as His children, hon or Him, reverence and adore Him. He is the third person of the God head. He is with us today, abid ing in our hearts, comforting us as we travel life’s rugged, danger ous pathway, Hallelujah! When we do the will of the Heavenly Father, pray, look up to Him, obey and serve Him, wor ship and reverence Him sincerely, then the blessed Holy Ghoeti the Comforter, gives us peace that is sweet; comforts and cheers us on ward and upward toward heaven. Heabides with us. He shields and protects us, leads, guides and directs us. He leads us into all truth, and makes us free in the Lord. Some people don’t believe in the Holy Ghosti therefore don’t have Him in their hearts and souk. They are left alone in times of trouble, test and trial. Thev have to battle it out themselves, and endure hard and awful things without the Comforter. They may claim to be children of God, but how can they be when they reject the Holy Ghost? He is adorable, He is indeed holy. It is indeed a dangerous thing to speak against the Holy Ghost. To blaspheme Him, to spurn and reject Him, means that there is no forgive ness of sins. One may sin against God and His Son Jesus Christ, and maybe curse diem, and deep ly repent and get forgiveness; but to blaspheme die Holy Ghost means that there is no forgive ness. O dear man, dear woman, be careful! Mind what you say about the Holy Ghost. Let Him come into your heart and soul, cleanse and purify ybu, sanctify you, and then abide forever. Ev ery regenerated perspn needs the baptism with die Holy Ghost, the filling of the Holy Ghost, so they can be pure within, and have pow er over all sin, then reach heaven when this life is over.

Inflation, Deflation, Costs of Living In all the confused talk about in flation, deflation, the cost of living and wages a great many people seem to forget what real wages are, thinks Frank P Litschert, writing in The Repnblic-Bulletin, ot Wash ington. For waves cannot be measured entirely in the theoretical amount in the pay envelope. The wage is not - what vou get each week or month, hut what you can buy with vour money. Purchasing power is all import nt. If you get jl5 a day and the cost of living can be estimated on the basis of a ■$$ pair of shoes, then if your wages are raised to seven dollars and shoes go np to $io, with all else rising in proportion, your wages at $7 a dav are less than they were at $5 per day. This is why of course, we hear so much about the relative cost of living There is now a general de mand for higher wages in the Unit ed States at least a wage in which the take home pay in war times when there were several hours overtime each week. Some of the New Dealers have unwisely stated that we raise the general waga rate 30 per cent and still not increase the cost ot living This might be true in some insolated cases, bnt broadly it is the biggest economic fallacy tbat has come from the rainbow recently and is responsible for a great deal of the unrest In the country It is generally recognized that a wage increase, say of 20 per cent at the same time. Bnt to inciease wages and bold down prizes would soon end in disaster and in the ruin especially of small business, which we claim to. be so anxious to help* If wages go up 20 per cent and the cost of living goes up accordingly it won’t be long until labor will feel that it is entitled to another in crease. A second increase would lead to a second elevation of the costs of living and soon we would be on wbat the economists call the vicious spiral of inflation That the great majority of tbe so-called financial minds of the country feels tbere is more danger of acute inflation than deflation is indicated by the action of the New York Stock Exchange where se- curitles have been steadily mount ing in price since the end of the war and esoecially since President Truman’s message to Congress in which he committed bis adminis tration to a continuation of Ibe spending policy of President Roose velt. This is despite the fact that many men ate now losing theiT jobs because of the curtailment of war production. These financiers say that inflation is already with Us and ask us to look around and note the prices which are being asked for commodities. One salient tact is that we must end our strike difficulties soon and start on full peace-time production The savings of the people of tbe United States are tremendous and the demand for new goods is more than strenuous. If production fal ten and tbe people still demand goods, wbat will happen? 'When n-oney is plentiful the way to pre vent critical ibfl ition is to produce the goods wi ich the peop>e want. It is a plentitude of money and scarcity of goods which cause the cost of living to get ont of band.— Union Republican. Notice to Creditors Having qualified as Adminiator of I estate of C. C.

C., played an im portant role in die operations of FleetAirW ing One during the final phases of the war when that Fleet unit piled up a record that is now being released by the Navy. From Korea to China and For mosa—even to Japan, itself—the air wing helped keep the Japs in confusion while other Fleet units pounded die enemy from Okina wa to Tokyo, and while her own planes teamed up with die Army airmen to rain destruction on her homeland. The Japs made their most fran tic effort to disrupt theoperatioiis of Fleet Air Wing One at Okina wa, turning loose an almost con tinuous stream of suicide fliers .at its base. Butthe Navy’s records show that the Jap effort was in vain. The wing is credited in those re cords with sending more than 175,000 tons of Jap shipping to the bottom with its Mariner, Corona do and Privateer planes, damaged at least that much more tonage, and shot down more than 40 en emy planes. Units of the wing still were har assing the Japs from their base at Okinawa when the Japs surren dered. Letter From Korea Stout, Korea, Oct. 28.

Merchants Groan At OPA Squeeze Chester Bowles and the OPA have put the nation’s merchants in an economic wringer, charged Rep. Charles .W. Vursell t R-Ill ) In an address to Congress. He called it a “squeeze,” which is making business casualties out of merchants “by tbe thousands.” Tt works like this, he explained, OPA requires merchants to hold 1942 price levels. Bot manufac turers can increase prices on the ar ticles they sell. Tbe merchant is caught in the squeeze. ‘Never before has such an ar- rogaut, arbitrary ruling been given the force and effect of the law,” de. ctared Vursell, He contended such rulings kept merchants’ shelves empty, thwarted employment, ad vertising, improvement of services to the public. Tbe merchants I know are all decent, hardworking people,” con tinued Vursell. “They have tried bard to make regulations stick they have been badgered around by investigators trying to find a i cent mistake that will cost the merch ant $50 when th e OPA gets through with it. Thev have taken all this quietly as their contribu tion to tbe war, but now they want to do their job.” Rep. Ben F. Jensen (R Ia ) by way of endorsing Vursell’s views, at the conclusion of his remarks had an editorial by William D. Ar. chie of the Shenandoah Sentinel en- tered in the Congressional Record. Archie editorialized, in part: “If everyone wants this (OPA) ptotection, then they should all join ’the* Army . . officers with bars and braid will tell them every thing. No worties at all . . . For one. I nave had plentv of it, but if we allow OPA to continue, there is little use coming home except to get regimented by a different set of officials. - ’When are we to stage another Boston tea party?

New York shipping, except for arriving troopships, was tied up in sixth day of longshoremen strike.

In tbe East soft coal area, 600 mines and 152,- 000 miners were idle—an estimated loss of 3 million tons of needed coal A strike of 450.000 telephone worders threatened; some !eft switch boards for a few hours. About 550,- 000 workers were involved in na tion’s labor disputes, thousands more indirectly. Two Good Reasons Senator O’Mahoney of Wvom- ing gives two reasons for opposing the Missouri Valley Anthority bill. First, it violates local control of water now being nicely handled by western states. Second, it is an ‘authoritative” bill, which takes a- way local control of the people liv ing in the area. These two reasons snm up the case not only against tbe federal government’s electric power social ization program but against exten sion of federal control over the peo ple In any form, no matter how be nevolent.— Kx.

Anti-U-Boat Super-Snooper DEPARTMENT OF PEACE WASHINGTON. — This columnist recently proposed that we begin thinking a little more about the Ser mon on the Mount in our internation al relations, and among other things establish a Department of Peace. It was suggested that along with the Department of War and the navy department, we set up as our first line of defense a Department ol Peace to promote the idea that the only alternative to the atom bomb is to teach the world and ourselves that we must get- along with each other. One aftermath of this idea is sig nificant. It occurred in the appro priations committee of the house of representatives the other day when its members voted appropriations for the state department It happens that the nearest tiling we have to a Department of Peace is the Department of State. That or ganization is by no means perfect, and might not be ideal to opeiate a Department of Peace. But its new chief, Jimmy Byrnes, has some good ideas and is working hard to establish new bureaus for spreading goodwill and helping peace. He is trying to carry on the ideas of the office of war information which furnished propaganda to newspa pers, aimed toward a better under standing of the USA. Byrnes is also trying to raise salaries. For years state department officials have struggled along on starvation wages. This is partly the fault of the wealthy career clique which wanted to keep wages low and thus oper ate a closed shop for themselves. So Secretary of State Byrnes is try ing to raise diplomatic wages as the first step toward having alert dip lomats guard the peace front. However, when Byrnes’ appropri ation bill got up before his old friends in congress the other day, the house appropriations committee slashed it to ribbons. They particu larly cut the new agencies patterned on the general idea of a Depart ment of Peace. MRS. ROOSEVELT’S TRAVELS Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt will soon be off on another globe-girdling tour designed to help international relations. This time Mrs. Roosevelt plans to visit Russia as well as other war-ravaged nations in Europe. In recent weeks, she has been tak ing a more vocal, outspoken posi tion on public issues. Although she denied having blasted Secretary of State Byrnes publicly for his han dling of the foreign minister confer ence, Mrs. Roosevelt has been very Sharp in private conversations about the way Truman and ByTnes have been rocking the ship of state, espe cially when it comes to foreign af fairs. Mrs. Roosevelt claims age is creeping up on her, but to an out side observer she gives no evidence of slowing down. She is now almost as active as she was before her hus band’s death — certainly still the most forthright lady ever to live in the White House. WBX MEN LEAVE NAVX Worried about the failure of men and officers to remain in the navy, Secretary of the Navy Forrestal re cently put out an order to naval sep aration centers to interview the next 100 reserve officers who came up for discharge. The result showed bitter resentment on the part of reserve of ficers against the Annapolis clique. Here are some typical interviews quoted verbatim: “The only reason I would join the navy again would be if I were starv ing.” “It’s mighty late for the navy to try to sell itself to reservists.” “I think the officers of the regular navy are grasping, pushing and self- centered.” “The attitude of the majority of Annapolis officers to reservists is that they are to be endured only for the time being.” “The Annapolis grads should cast aside their childish attitude.” MERRX-GO-ROUND C Judge Samuel Rosenman, one of Franklin Roosevelt’s closest friends, has become a staunch defender of Mississippi’s George Allen, who holds a similar position with Harry Truman. To his skeptical New Deal friends, Judge Rosenman protests, "But George is a liberal.” Allen, a protege of the late Senator Pat Harrison and an insurance execu tive, spends part of every morning with Truman going over his prob lems. C The White House is quietly pass ing the word around to newsmen not to pack their bags. There will be no more presidential junkets for quite a while. Truman got enough kidding about his journey to the Missouri county fair to last him a long time. C OPA estimates that 700,000 vet erans and their families have no place to live. Their wives and chil dren have been living “doubled up” while the G.I.s were out fighting. Now the veterans want a home of their own and can’t find it. Reports coming to me say that homeless vet erans will stage a demonstration in I New York City.CThe house committee on un-Amer ican activities has investigated ex- Sen. Robert Reynolds’ Nationalist party. But, according to Investi gator George McDavitt, it found nothing wrong with this group; One of the many ingenious inventions that overcame the U-boat Wolf packs, tile “expendable radio sono buoy.” The sono buoy was a sort of super-snooper radio device dropped from planes. The hydrophone picks up the sound thrown off by the U-boats and relays it by cable to the radio transmitter in the top compartment which broadcasts the signal to waiting ships and planes.

FEATURES****. •» THE STORY THUS FAR: TbmiiIer- head, commonly known as the Gablln, Is Hi. only white hsise ever bora on tbs Gdom Bar ranch In Wyoming. Be grows Irom a misshapen colt to a powerful yearling, resembling his great grandsire more every day. Ihe grandsire Is a wilfl stallion called the Albino. One day Gob lin wanders Into a mountain valley, meets the Albino, and barely escapes with his life. After his wounds heal, his 12-year-old owner, Ken McLaughlin, be gins to train Urn. Xhe McLanghlIns secretly hope he will develop Into a racer. The Goblin Is difficult to handle, ta t one day He surrenders to Ken, and sets off across the prairies. He rnns with astonishing use, speed and endurance. CHAPiER x iii As she approached him, every thing forgotten but the longing for closeness and understanding, he looked up at her. Her iris-colored eyes were dark with emotion. They were shadowed underneath, but they were full of gentleness and affec tion and her smile pleaded for reconciliation. Rob held out his hand to her. She leaned over to kiss him and he kissed her in return. Their eyes did not quite meet."Are you going up?” he asked. “Yes.” "Don’t wait for me. I’m going to read awhile.”• • * The "track” was a half mile oval on the level range north of Lone Tree Creek, about two miles from the ranch house. This had been selected by the boys immediately upon their arrival home from school this summer as Thunderhead’s practice and trial ground. There was a natural grand stand to one side, a peak of craggy rock spearing up. They had out lined the oval track by setting posts at the curves. These posts—Thun- derhead must understand—he was to run outside of, not in. Sometimes he did, sometimes he did not. Not that he did not understand! They had painted a broad band of white across the course at the finish, just In front of the grandstand and here Thunderhead had run many a mile, wondering, no doubt, where was the sense in it. Bunning to shelter in a storm—running away from enemies and dangerous places—just even running with his own band for fun and exercise on the Saddle Back— this could be understoood. But run ning on the flat range, often at top speed, around and around those posts, with a small demon yelling on top of him and another jumping up and down on the rock—this was incomprehensible. The air was fresh after the storm, tiie range green and dustless. Nell was in white linen jodhpurs and white silk shirt with the sleeves rolled up on her slender brown arms. Her face was without care or worry, like a child’s when a picnic is ahead. She sat beside Sargent in his car, pointing out to him the way to the track, for it could not be reached by any of the roads on the ranch. In the back of the car was How ard with the bucket of oats. Just before they had started they had heard a yell, and Ken came running with a bucket half full of oats and a halter rope. His face showed embarrassment as he apologized for Thunderhead and stuck the bucket In the car. “Just-in case—in case he got away or something—and I had trouble in getting him back.” "So,” said Sargent, as they drove along, “he gets away, does he? And is hard to get back?”“Aw—” said Howard, “he’s pretty good. We haven’t been training bun very long, you know." “Sometimes,” said Nell, “he runs dear off and doesn’t come back for • long time. Look, Charley— you go down this slope here and through Lone Tree—that shallow place there.” Charley slowed down to put the car through the creek.“Where does the colt go?” he asked. "That’s what we’d all Uke to know,” said Nell. “He came back once with cuts and'scratches,” said Howard, lean ing over the back of their seat. “And a terrible big wound in the chest. Dad said a stallion had pawed him.” Charley Sargent seemed to have been struck dumb. He stood looking at the horses, first Thunderhead, then the filly, Touch And Go. She had moved away a little and. was grazing quietly. Finally he reached for the makings, rolled himself a cigarette and took a long puff. "Ken,” he said quietly, "111 be damned."Ken, at the colt’s head, looked at him anxiously, the color coining and going in his face. "So that!” said Sargent In his drawling voice, "is Thunderhead out of Flicka by Appalachianiw “Yes, sir, he’s by Appalachian all right.” "How old is he? "Just a short two. Do you—do you think he looks pretty good, Mr. Sargent?" “He’s nothing of a racer—” * "He isn’t!” "Nothing like any horse I ever saw before. He’s like a statue of a horSe that sculptors think up—all big curves and muscles — that head—” Thunderhead’s face, eyes, head— these were, indeed, the outstanding things about him. Such a face would make a person suddenly stop in passing, look again—then stand hyp notized. The intensity of the black eye with the thin thread of white around it—the wildness, the implac able determination—the bigness of the heajr-the way the heavy neck curved and drew the chin in to the chest—then suddenly flung Ihe head high—with the black muzzle reaching up—the nostrils flaring— “I’ll be damned,” said Sargent weakly again. “Isn’t he a racer at all, Mr. Sar gent?”“He’s not a racing type. Not a runner. Not that he might not, perhaps—beat a racer—! With that power, no telling what he could dot Is he fast?” “Well—sometimes, if he wants to be. He really can run, but he doesn’t always do it.” “You don’t think he’s too heavy, Charley?” Nell asked. “Not like a work horse?” “My Gosh, no! Those legs— they’re strong but they’re trim and clean. He’s a heavy hunter type. AU the power in the world there.” At every word waves of hot and cold went through Ken. Praise 6f Thunderhead! Power? Ken knew his power. Would he ever forget the first ,ride he had had on him this summer? It was not just the ride. It was an experience of power and will that had been communicated from the horse’s body to his own and had left a mark in his con sciousness that would never be erased. He smoothed Thunderhead’s nose softly. “He’s strong all right.” The stallion’s eyes turned a Iit- “Bisllng!" Charlie laughed and looked at Thonderhead. tie, fastened on Ken. Ken stared back. Suddenly Thunderhead’s teeth bared and reached for Ken’s arm. Ken snatched it away and cuffed him. Thunderhead reared, came down prancing. Ken hauled on the reins and shouted at him. Charley stepped back quickly. “Nasty-tempered, eh?” "It isn’t that. He doesn’t like me.”“Doesn’t like you! That’s pretty tough, when he’s yours and you have to train him.” “I keep thinking maybe he’ll get to like,, me. Mother’s the only one he likes. He’s never mean to her.” “Let’s look at the filly. Why did you bring her along?” asked Char ley. “He’s very fond of her. She’s his little sister. Sie’s kind of a mascot for him.” "Oh, she’s out of Flicka too?” “Yes. And they always stay to gether. It kind of quiets him, if he should get excited, to have her around.” "He gets excited, does he? And mean?” Ken was shocked. “Oh, never mean! But he bucks and fights. Sometimes he runs- away with me.” “But never mean!” laughed Sar gent. “I see. But can’t you hold him in?”“He takes the bit. He’s Getter when Touch And Go’s around. He’s happier. You see he isn’t a very happy horse most of the time. He’s got - something eating him, dad says.” Sargent was studying the filly. "That’s a nifty little filly.” “She’s exactly like Flicka was when she was a yearling. When I first got Flickal she was just about that age and a bright golden sorrel like that, and the UgU mane and tail,” "She’s like her stre,” said Sar gent. “She’s hy Banner, isn’t she?” “Yes, and die’s very light and fast.” “You don’t say.” Sargent was not going to be enthusiastic about a colt of Banner’s when one of Appalachian’s was around. “Yes, die can go like the wind] But of course nobody has ever rid den her. She just runs along with Thunderhead when we train him, Qf by herself.” “Mr. Sargent,” said Howard, "our two-year-olds are’going to be gelded right away and dad says Thunder* head’s got to be gelded too. Do you think he ought to be?” 1 At this unpleasant reminder of the one thing that was preying on his mind, the happiness went out ot the day for Ken. Nell's cheeks colored .with anger and she turned away and walked over to the “grandstand." “Come along, Howard, give me a hand »p here! We’d better get started!” > Sargent looked at Ken’s white, sul len face. 1 “What’s the matter, son?” Ken gave a little jerk of his head toward Howard. “What he was say ing there. Dad’s going to have all the two-year-olds gelded.” I “When?” I : “Some time this week. He’s sent word to Doc Hicks to come and do it whenever he’s in this neighbor-, hood. Then dad won’t have to pay for his driving out and back just for our horses.” 1 “Is he going to geld Thunderhead too?” “Yep.” “Well, what if he does? He won’t be the only one. They aU have to be gelded, you know.” 1 "But he’s going to be a race horse!” "What’s that got to do wifli it? Bace horses get gelded too—most of them. It won’t hurt him. And it may improve his appearance. I wouldn’t like to see that neck of his get any thicker.” “But he might die!”“Oh, nonsense! It won’t hurt him. But maybe, if he runs well enough, we could get your father to change his mind.” Ken shook his head. "He never changes his mind.” “Never does?” “No.”"Well, anyway, let’s see what the colt can do now. Up with you.” He clutched the seat of Ken’s pants, and the boy went Ughtly up into the sad dle. He hitched his feet into the lit tle short stirrups and grinned down at Sargent. “I don’t usually ride with these short stirrups. I ride bareback a lot. It’s kind of hard to get used.to. But I can do it.” He squeezed his knees together, and bent over the horse’s withers like a jockey. Sargent’s long brown face was twinkling with enjoyment. "Give him a bit of a workout first to warm him up. Remember, I’ve an inter est in this colt too!” This was very cheering to Ken as he gave the signal to Thunderhead and the colt started forward. Per haps, if Mr. Sargent had an interest in him too, he might say some thing to his father about the gelding. Sargent stood looking at him as he cantered down the course, noticing his action. Then he climbed up on ' the grandstand beside NeU and How ard. There was a ledge quite high, up from which they could overlook the whole track.Howard held the stop watch in his hand.Touch And Go left her grazing and cantered playfully beside her big brother, down to the end, around the curve, and back again. The • white colt moved slowly and easily. After ten minutes or so, Sargent shouted to Ken, “Get him going now, son—Let him out.”Ken swung around to the starting line and flung the horse over it in a gallop. For a half-hour then, Ken strug gled to make the colt give a good account of himself. He had very UtQe success. Thunderhead cut a comer once, Ken pulled him up, made him go back and outside the post. Suddenly the colt got ugly— fought for the bit—Ken spurred him and reined him back, then lifted him forward into a run. Touch And j Go ran with him. 'By turns Howard and Charley Sar- ', gent' held the stop watch. Finally $ Siey climbed down and Ken rode up ' I j to them. His face was flaming, his ” eyes wild, the horse nervous and pacing.“Can he run, Ken?” said Sar gent. "What have you been giving me?”“Oh, yes, he can—if he wantsl” answered Ken passionately."I’m beginning to think he’s too much horse for you,” said Sargent, "You know," said NeU thoughtful, ly, "he reaUy can run. Ifs quit* different from this hard galloping. It’s a different gait. Do you re-, member that black mare—Rocket— bis grandmother?” “I sure do—she was almost mj;, mare." !“Yes. That one. You remember, the time we ran her in front of tha, automobile and docked her—and she* just floated along without trying—; no effort at all?” !"I do.- Never saw such a gait in my life.” "He’s got the same gait, He does! it sometimes. I wish you could sea] it. Ken, let’s try. again. I’ll tie up Toudx And Go, I think she dis-' tracts him.” !MeU got the tie-rope, mapped it to the filly’s halter and fastened her' to the bumper of the automobile so' that Thunderhead could not see her. Once more they too£ their places 01 the ledge and Charley gave Keq “ signal.

But we solemnly pledge our honorable board that we will uot “cuss them out” regardless of whether they always do what we think they ought to do. Vote For Bonds The Record is heartily in favor of Mocksville issuing(bonds in the sum of $100,000 for an additional water supply for the town. When the first bonds were issued some 20 -odd years ago for a water sys tem The Record insisted that watet be secured from Bear Ceek or Himting Creek instead of from wells. The town fathers decided that they could save money by using wells. They were mistaken then, and have found ont that wells cannot be depended upon to furnish a water supply, suffi cient for a growing town like Mocksville. Other towns tried the wells but found out their mis take. We urge every citizen of the town who is not registered, to get his name on the registration books so he or she can vote on partment. dated Nov. 8th: “Since your son, Technical Ser geant Charles Gordon Stonestreet , 1 Air Corps, was reported missing in action Mav 8 , 1944, the War, Department has entertained the1 hope that he survived and that information would be revealed! dispelling d ie u n certain ty su r-| rounding his absence.

'*i' ' DavieHealth News By Dr Alfred Mordecai, Health Officer. 1 A fifteen minute broadcast on healt'> 8 'ltje 's may be heard each Saturday, mominit at 9:15 over Radio Station WPTF. These broadcasts are made by Dr. William H. Richardsun of the N. C. State Board of Health, directed by Dr. Carl V. Reynolds, State Health Ofii er, ! Theseshnrt talks are instrnctive and Ititfhly interesting; Tbvy are well wnrth luning in on During the m nth of Octo- b. r for instance two Ot tbr«e talks wen? made on D. D. T., tbe newest and besti si-cticide yet discovered for the control of flies, uiosquitoes and c.rtain other pests. More will appear in your paper laternn in regard to the purchase and use of this pirlicular item. Dr Richardson’s broadcast on Saturday, Nov. 3, was also very timely. His subject was wIPegal Deaths From Diphtheria.'* It was pointed ont that this disease has mnr- kedlv increased in North Carolina sinee Iasc year and that there have already been this year considerably more deaths in this state due to diphtheria than we had during a corresponding period in 1944 Between Janoary I and September -0O 1945, 580 cases of diphtheria were repurt ed in North Carolina. Ihe total nutnb-r of cases repined last month, that is, dur ing October, this year.- was 375 bringing the 1945 total to date up to nearly 1,000 cases. Up to September 30 this year, a total of 35 deaths had been reported in this state, and it is charged that 23 of these deaths resulted from parental neg lect inasmuch as these victims were all small children whose parents had failed to have them protected against this dis ease, Io put it bluntly these were ille gal deaths, because they represented chil dren of five years of age and under—all born at le»«t a year after the passage, in 1939, of the State law which provides that every baby born in this state shall be immunized acainst diphtheria between 6 and 9 months of age. By neglecting to have these children immunized the re pective parents or guardians, violated Chapter 126 of the Public Laws of 1939, the first sec tion of which reads as fnllows: "The parent, or parrots, nr guardian of any child in North Carolina shall have administered to such child ‘between the ages of six and twelve months; an immu nizing dose of a prophylactic diphtheria agent which meets the >ten<iards approv ed by the United States Public Heaiih Service for such biologic products." Saciion two of this same law provides that: "The parent or parents or guardian of any child in Norih Carolina between the ages of twelve months and five years who has not been previously Immunized against diphtheria, shall have administer i d to such child an immunizing dose of a pr< | hv|actic diphtheria agent which meets the stai dam approved by tbs U. S Public Health Service lor such biologic products. * And section five provides the penalty, which is that any person found guilty of violating this act. or any part of it, shall, upon conviction, be fined up to $50, or im prisoned up to 30 days, in the discretion of the court. Says Dr. Richardson, “Notwithstanding the existence of this law, which has been broadcast time and again over the radio —printed in many newspapers, heralded by practicing physicians, public health workers and others interested in the wel fare of children—'wenty-three North Car- olioa babies under five years of age have. died of diphtheria in North Carolina dnr ing the first nine months of this year, and approximately 1,000 were allowed to con - 1 tract diphtheria through October." "Let a I dog die of neglect, and the whole com- j munity is aroused to indignation. But what about a baby that is a llie d to die of neglect, by not having it immunized a- gainst diphtheria, a disease known and proven to be practically 109 per cent pre ventable? The law may not apprehend and convict those whose violation of it may result in tbe death of an innocent child, but conscience can, and ought tol'' Citizens of Davie. Stokes and ' Yadkin - Counties, may I, your Health Officer, re mind you that a large per cent of tbe small children and babies in this Tri- County Health Unit have nnt been Immu nized against diphtheria. These small children constitute a mass of ripe mater iai for an epidemic »f diphtheria. If it starts there will be much grief and manv a sad conscience to burn in our fair laod.

SIRJflCE BUREAU EDITOla NOTEi This newspaper, through special arrangement with the Washtngton Bureau of Western Newspaper Union at '1616 Eye Street, N. Wh Washington, D. Ci is able to bring readers this weekly 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. Reconverting lntarmee The Veterans administration has Just recently ruled that veterans of World War n who have permitted Aeir National Service Life insur ance to lapse and desire to reinstate it, may do so by paying two pre miums and submitting evidence that he is in good health if the insurance lapses within six months after he is discharged. If the veteran has been out of service more than six months he may reinstate the insurance at any time within three months by show ing his health is as good as when the insurance lapsed and paying premi ums for two months.If the veteran is unable to keep Ae full amount of insurance he car ried while in service, he may reinstate and continue any part of it in amounts from $1,000 to $10,000 in multiples of $500 upon payment of two monthly premiums. Congress has recently extended the five-year level premium policies issued on or before December SI, 1945, and not converted to permanent policies be fore that date, for an additional three years. Such policies issued after that date have five years to run. In either case, the policies, at their expiration date, must be converted to one of the permanent plans offered by the Veterans administration: ordinary life, 20-payment life or 30-payment life. If national serv ice life insurance is allowed to lapse after being converted into perma nent form, the veteran must pay all monthly premiums in arrears with interest at 5 per cent, and prove his good health. Converted national service life insurance has a cash value and may also be used for security. The five-year term policy as extended does not have a cash value. Qaestiont and Answert Q.

Here we enter Ae veritable holy of holies of Scripture. FacAg Ae time of His departure and death, Ae Lord prayed for Aose who believed, or would believe (V. 20) on Him.What was His prayer?' That they should be one wiA the FaAer, with Him, and wiA one another. This had to be accomplished while they remaAed A this wicked world (see John 17:13-16). How? By Ae cleansAg and sanctifyAg work of Ae truth. The Word of God—the Bible—A Ae ,Astrument used by the Holy Spirit A this work Of sanctification. Small wonder that Aerev A little holAess and spiritual unity when the Word has so little opportunity to touch and to cleanse. Reader, do you sAdy God’s Word?Such separation to God will result A real spiritual unity between Aose of all denomAations and creeds. It is not some artificial thAg to be put on from the outside. It comes from the heart of man and reaches out Ato As life and Ato the lives of oA- ers. H. UAty A Action (Acts 15:22-27). Satan tried to Awart the mission ary efforts of the Church at Ae very outset- by starting a doctr AA con troversy. AlAough Ae first council at Jerusalem (Acts 11) had decided that “to Ae Gentiles also hath God granted repentance unto .life,” Ae question did not stay settled, for Aere were persistent JudaizAg teachers who now contended Aat even Aough Ae Gentiles could be saved, they had to come Ato the church by way of Judaism and first fulfill Ae Jewirii rite of circumcision. The story of how this vital and fundamental question came up A found A the early verses of Acte 15, The entire Ature of the gospel ministry was A a sense dependent on Ae so lution of this problem. Christiamtik is the oMy religious faiA A the world Aat presents justification by grace as Ae way of redemption; aU others follow (more or less) the paA of salvation by works. The question now was: Shall works bf Ae law be mAgled wiA grade? Can Jesus CAist alone save men, or is salvation tiirough Jesus CAist plus somethAg else? How was such a serious question to be settled? Should argument and strife be permitted to go on until Ae stronger party prevailed? Bet ter judgment Adicated the desirability of a CAistian method of settlement. The final decision of Ae council is sent not only by Paul and Barnabas, but also by a committee Aom Jeru salem, a gracious gesture of fellowship. . As a matter of record (a wise pro cedure A such a case), a letter was sent wAch, after addressing Ae Gentiles as “bretAen,” reviewed the history of the matter and Aen, wiAout mentioning circumcision at all, put upon the Gentiles “no great er^ burden Aan Ae necessary things.” And what were Aose? Those thAgs which relate to purity of life as Aose who were enjoyAg CAistian liberty. The Aw of Moses need not be kept as a ground of salvation. They were saved by grace. But grace can never be Ae cloak of careless IivAg, nor can liberty A CAist be Aterpreted as license to live A sin. We are set free A CAist, not that we may sin, fcut that we may “go and sA no more.” In. Unity A Doctrine (Acts 15: 28, 29). A non-essentials we should exer cise toward oAer believers Ae greatest love and consideration. Men have a right to differences of opin ion, and must follow Ae dictates of AeA own consciences. Letusnotbe AAayed Ato controversy on such matters. -■ There are certain .foundation doc- AAes which must be held A a church is to be CAistian; 'ppncem- Ag these we stand togeAer .!1 There ii a faiA for wAch we arg to earnestly !’contend” (Jude 3). ’We are never,-even on Ae grounds‘.of sup posed courtesy, to give aid Ud com fort to false teachers (H John 9-11). KAdly, tactfully, but definitely the Christian Church must stand true to its docAAal convictions, StandAg united against an unbelievAg world, and if need be, an unbelievAg religious world. .To wash galoshes put A washer after washing is finished and wash Aem about five mAutes.

E . P . F o s te r ) When a man loses the right use of his mind, his friends put him in a , state institution, but when a whole people start turning imbecile they commit themselvet to the tender mercies of government; In one sen tence, that’s what I think about the so-called Full Employment Bill, al ready passed by the Senate and scheduled for early consideration by the House.If our congressmen fasten upon the Federal government an obliga tion^to provide jobs for everybody, they will be saying, “We represent a commonwealth of incompetents, un able to take care of themselves.” America’s vast resources, her enormous productive capacity, trained minds, skilled hands and huge mar kets will amount to nothing if our people lose their initiative, self- reliance and self-starters. Men Have Spines God in His wisdom metes out privileges and duties in proportion. No man and no nation can revel long in liberty and shirk the responsibili ties that go with it, for human free dom is a gift from above. Much re sponsibility for the future of man kind hangs on the American people; we may well be thankful that our liberties are many. This is no time to recline in a political armchair among the old world’s decadent tribes. What supports the idea that gov ernment ought to (or even can) guar antee jobs for everybody? Answer: Warped notions brought to America by immigrants from the backward lands of Europe and Asia. Many such “cases” can’t quit thinking that citi zens must serve the state instead of the state serving the citizens. They actually seem to imagine that rulers think better than other people. Poisonous Insects Foreign philosophies, spread qui eter through schools, playgrounds and market places, have poisoned the minds of American boys and girls tinder their parents’ very eyes. It is a quiet enemy that long has de manded attention. ... When our sol diers landed on Guadalcanal they I met Japanese attack from land, wa ter and sky, and they overcame it. But the tropical bugs did more damage, quietly. Insects with bills like hypodermic needles, hardly big enough to see without a glass, seemed like irri tants of small consequence. But they turned out to be more dangerous than the man-size enemies. Their noise was small, their wounds were negligible, but they planted a ven omous pestilence in the blood stream, extravagant of life and ruin ous to the morale of those who survived. There is a Cure How parallel to Guadalcanal has been the defense of representative, constitutional government on the home front. Deafening weapons of the Axis powers failed to destroy this republic. American ingenuity, sharpened by hope of achievement; American skill, whetted by ambi tion to advance; America’s power to produce, fused in the furnace of open competition: These won the noisy battles. But the same things will not cure the plague of poisoned minds. That’s another problem. Helplessness, de pendence on the state and false philosophies are like tropical fever —in the blood. If it has penetrated all the way to Capitol Hill, if we enact federal law encouraging the malady, then the case is serious in deed. The fate of the Full Employ ment Bill will determine whether the United States is becoming imbecile.

Simpson Anyone who can keen sweet un der severe testr and trials, tempta tions and persecutions, heartaches and sorrows, ups and downs, dis- appointk aud misfertunes, and a- mid the varions adverse conditions of life, suraly can win the victory that will crown him a hero. This is possible only by the marvelous love and grace of God in the soul. It means much indeed to keep sweet when everything seems to go a. gainst us, and it looks as though we are going down. Down? Nev er, as long as we are true to God and the right, and keep in a spirit of prayer, faith, patience, love, hu mility, gentleness, kindness and sweetness, and in the meantime thank and praise God because He ts with us. Amen. I have before me a letter from a colored girl who reads my messages In the Union Republican, who sent a dollar for two of my books along with some stamps, which I greatly appreciate She said in part: alI read your paper every time I can. I like to read it. It helps me in heart and spirit and feelings.” In the course ot her letter she tells of her severe tests and trials, then asks tor prayer. Sbe has Ho fath er or mother, and says she is poor; but the striking thing about her letter is that she bas great faith in God. She prays. Quoting again from her letter: aT am colored and you ate white, but I am a child of God, and mean to stay one as loing as I live in this world ” 0 , that multitudes of our white people had the sweetness that is manifested in the hearts and souls of some of. the colored peopla! One can have God and His love, grace and sweetness in his soul and life regardless af color. It is the won derful love, grace and sweetness of God in one’s inmost life and soul that counts with God, and not col ot . Sweetness of soui means vic tory over the power of sin and wickedness, though oftentimes w. are severely tried by tne enemy.

To Those That Have— President Tiuman wants the pay of all government employees raised at least so per cent, and np to one hundred per cent for members of Congress. We are in favor of the little fellow whose earnings haven’t kept page with rising living costs. In some cases even the 20 per cent may be insufficient. But we can’t see where Senators and Represen- tatives and entitled to have their allowance doubled. Under Mr. Truman’s plan the salaries of all cabinet members, those in high judicial p o sts, undersecretaries, beads of independent agencies und boards, would get f to,0 0 0 a year more than they are receiving now. Some of those salaries would go as high as $30 500 a year. Bnt the $1,600 a year clerk would get just about a dollar a day more for his labors. We suspect that all this is lead ing to a "spontaneous” suggestion that the presidential salary be raised from $75,000 to $150,000 a year. We have already seen some press- agenting along that line, and we don’t have to wet our index finger and hold it to the wind to see which way it’s blowing. There is, of co .rse, justification for a reasonable increase in the President’s salary. His living costs like those of everyone .else, have gone up, and taxes take almost two thirds of his pay. But we are op posed to doubling the remumera- tion of the big fellows, while those with little incomes won’t get en ough more to offset wartime infla tion—Statesville Daily. It’s Up To The Workers If automobile manufacturers have their way and uo further work stoppages occur in ensuing weeks, there will be at least a quarter mil lion new cars on the roads by Christmas, and production next year mav exceed six million units. At least one of the "big three” bas already reached an output of one thousand cars per day, expecting to doable that in the near future. With twenty-five million motor vehicles now in service rapidly ap. proaching the juuk heap stage, the whole automobile industry, from line-prodnction workers to distri bntors and dealers, fa :es a pleas antly prosperous future. Manage ment seems willing and anxious to go full speed forward. It now re mains to be seen whether labor will co-operate, and nnder what terms The industry probaby could stand a substantial wage raise if workers showed a disposition to match tbe increased pay by greater produc tivity, and top labjr leadership de monstrates that it can control the rank and hie. One of the big producers com plained not long ago that due to wildcat strikes and unauthorized work stoppages, sometimes by only a handful of employees, his com. pany produced fewer cars, in ,three months than came off the line In a single day before the war. Unless such conditions are remedied, tbey will mean the end of mass automo bile production i n Americ:'. — Statesville Daily. Forgot To Reward An Honest Man Gastonia. — Taxi driver J. B.

A bov who is in a training camp in Illinois, sent the following poem to bis mother, a few days ago: No more ham and eggs or grape fruit When the bugie blows for chow, No more apple pie and dnmplings For we’re in the army now. And tbey feed us beans for break fast And ^t noon we have them too And at night tnev AU our tummies With the good old army stew. No more fizzes, beer or highballs When we’ve got an awful thirst, If you’te tbinqing of enlisting, Best get used to wa’er first; For the lid’s on tight all over And tbe drilling makes us warm. But we can’t cool off with liquor Cause we wear the uuifo'rm No more shirts of siik or linent We all wear the :>0. D.” stuff: No more night-shirts or pajamas For our pants are Rood enough: No more feather ticks ot pillows, But we’re glad to thank the Lord That we’ve got a coat and blanket When we might just have a board For they feed us beans for breatfast And at noon we have them too, And at night they fill our tumr. ies With the good old army stew, But by jings. we’ll lick the kaiser When the sergeants teach us how For. hang him, he’s the reason That we’re in the army now. Baptists Want Taylor Recalled Raleigh — The North Carolina Baptist Convention nnanimously voted to ask Ftesident Truman to terminate the appointment of My ron C. Taylor as special represen tative to tbe Vatican. The Baptist resolution said that Taylor was ap pointed by the late President Roose velt as a war emergency measure, and that there is no longer any need to continue tbe appointment. The Baptists asked that not only Taylor but “the steadily increasing staff of the United States embassy at the Vatican be recalled.” The resolution used these words: ’We believe that such action on the part of the President will meet with widespread approval and be lieve opr nation from a growing dis content with a situation which com plicates our foreign relations and endangers the cherished principle of complete separation of church and state—the acknowledged gnarahtee of religious freedom.” Tbe convention added, and we quote again: "We consider the appointment of Mister Taylor, even as a war measure a direct violation of the constitution of the United States.” Certainly ‘‘Did that soldier attempt to kiss you last night?” ’ Why,’mother, you don’t think he came all the way from camp jnst to listen to our radio, do you?’ 70,000 Letters Daily U. S. Troops in North Japan ie- ceived about 70,000 letters daily through the/ Seventh Base post of fice in Yokohama, staffed by 14 officers and 435 enlisted men. Of ficers said letters from the United States oow reached Japan eight to 10 days from the mailing date but packages required 30 to 90 days. Sngar Still Scarce Secretary of Agriculture Clinton Anderson says that there is little hope now sugar’s rationing will end before 1947. Rationing of butter, margeriue, lard and shortening may have to continue next spring and possibly into the snmmer, he added, but meat may go off the ration list early in 1946.. ProvideWay For Citi zens’ Voice Possibly the only political device left to the American people by which they can hope to secure a Voice in peace making is an election, Chairman Brownwell told a Wash inytan audience He was reviewing facts and cir cumstances by which the President has assumed powers which normal Iy are vested in the Senate He pointed out before the war,: war, and through the conduct of war, the President had made com mittments concerning which no one save foreign diplomats, have infor mation. He piedicts that if things go on as they are, tbe administra tion will assume responsibility for settling the affairs of Europe, com pletely ignoring the Congress and the people. In fact, Mr. Brownell doubts if there will be a peace conference, and if there is, whether it can undo the commitments already made and carried ont, Drawing similar conclusions in the course of another address, Hngh R. Wilson, former ambassa dor to Germany and chief of tbe Party’s Foreign Affairs Section, said, "No peace conference in the future can conceivable alter tbe de cisions to which we were commit ted by a chief executive Not only chief executives make irrevocable decisions. Each military command, er in his zone of occupation is making them daily Whether tbe military commanders are aware of it or not, however they may regard their appointments as purely func tional, political consequences are inevitable.” “At the close ot former wars, tbe people ot the United States have had a chance to express their views throngh the processes of advice and consent by the Senate to a treaty of peace. At the close ot this most formidable war with Germany, it seems higbly unlikely that the peo ple will again enjoy such a privi lege.” Taft Favored A House Republican has urged that Senator Robert A. Taft, of Ohio, be the Republican party’s candidate for .President in 1948 . The suggestion came from Rep resentative Mason (111) in what Mason, in an address prepared for House delivery, also- 1 Prooosed a Cabinet team be said should be placed before voters along with Taft. 2 Proposed that "Jeffersonian Democrats” against ’’New Dealers, Socialists, Communists, profession al do gooders and give-awayers ” Mason said that in offering the names of Taft and others, he did not neeessarily mean them "but men of their type, kind and qual ity.” He suggested that former Re publican Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusett’s be tbe Vice Presidential candidate. Symbol of Resistance Cecille P. deMille, the motion pictuie producer who was forced to resign from bis post on a nation wide program oecause he refused to pay a dollar assessment into a poli tical fund of a radio artists’ union, has become a symbol of resistance to the ruthless tactics of a current labor leadership. He warms that "a new thing has risen in this land or rather a very old and very evil thing—tyranny. "When one man or group bas the power to decide who shall not that is a national cancer—a cancer that must be cut out be fore it renders our- country too weak to resist the poisons of totali tatianism.”—fix.

They came from every section of the state. This meeting was held in Wins ton-Salem on Nov. 6th. Baptists Criticize Presi dent Forth Worth, Texas.—The Bap tist general convention of Texas leveled criticism at President Tru man for what it asserted was Irs attitude toward gambling a n d drinking. The convention on motion of the Rev. W. I. Roloff, Corpus Christi, instructed trustees of all Texas Baptist colleges and universities not to confer an honorary degree ou persons holding "to such a posi. The resolution: "Because of the reported attitude of the President of the United States as a Baptist towaid gamb ling and drinking and because of the I vitation on Baylor university to confer upon bim tbe'high recog nition of a honorary degree, I move that we instrnct the trustees of all our colleges and universities not to confer any honorary degree on those holding to such a position.” Tbe resolution was adopted by the convention without opposition: At Waco, Pat M. Neff, president of Baylor, replied "no comment” when told of tbe resolution. "No baptist school should confer a degree on a man who likes his poker and drinks bis Bourbon,'’ tbe Rev. ‘ W. L. Sbuttlewortb, Houston, chairman of the civic rtgheousness committee, said on the convention floor. “I know that we all. agree that no man—even the President of the United States—could be a good Baptist and drink his liquor.” tbe Rev.

Fresh-from- the-oven bread or rolls are meal tonics hard to beat. If you want to add extra nourishment to your menus or to give in expensive energy to your family, then the formula is bread—or rolls! They contain carbohydrates, some fat and milk and eggs.Bread can be used lavishly in many interesting ways. A fruited coffee ring for breakfast can mean the difference between a well begun day or a dull, prodding one. And think of the difference between fresh, moist bread in sandwiches for lunch and dry, stale bread.First of all, there’s this scarlet- topped and crystal-glazed quick cof fee cake to start the day right.

On gas, electric or oil ranges, the oven temperature should read from 380 to 400 de grees. Pans (if more than one loaf is baked at a time) should not stand too close together, so that heat may circulate freely around them. After about 10 minutes of baking, the temperature should be reduced to about 350 degrees and maintained until the loaves are done. Medium-sized loaves require 45 to 50 minutes’ baking time, while large loaves need an hour-or longer. If there is no oven thermometer handy, the temperature may be tested as follows: Spread Vi tea spoon flour on an inverted baking tin in a layer Vi inch thick and place in the oven. At 400 degrees, the flour will become light brown in about 5 minutes. If it darkens more quickly than that, allow the oven to cool before placing bread in to bake.

No replies can be made direct by mail, but only in the column which will appear in this newspaper regularly. Few Coniimte Itwaranee Concerned with the large percent age of veterans who are not convert ing their national service life insur ance into permanent insurance, or with maintaining their policies' to present form, Gen. Omar N. Brad ley, Veterans’ administration di rector, recently held a meeting with a joint committee of the American Life convention and the Life Insur ance Association of America to lay plans for a nation-wide educational campaign on the subject. “Recent figures indicate that only one out of five veterans discharged is continuing his term policy or is converting it into one of the three types of permanent insurance offered,” Goieral Bradley said. This figure, the committee was told, is approximately three times the ratio experienced after the last war. A committee of insurance men headed by Alexander Patterson, ex ecutive vice president of the Mutual Life Insurance company, of New York, assured General Bradley that the committee “is prepared to go all- out to co-operate with you In your program to present to the veteran the many advantages of maintain ing his national service life insur ance policy.” Questions and Answers Q. My husband, a veteran of World War I is sick and disabled and about four months ago put to a disability claim and-has not heard from it. Will they write and tell him whether he is eligible for pay or not? —Mrs. W. J. G., Lebanon, Va, A. Yes, he will no doubt hear from the Veterans administration. If he does not soon, write again to the nearest regional office of the Veterans administration. Q. My 18-year-old brother is now entering the army. How much time will he have to spend to the service or has there been a definite length of time decided upon. If a soldier re-enlists to the army, then decides within 20 days that he wants a dis charge, can he get it?—Mrs. L. J., Pontotoc, Miss. A. The answer to your first ques tion is that there has been no defi nite time decided for 18-year-olds to the army. To the second question, the answer is No. Q. My husband has been in serv ice since February, 1945. He is 31 years old and he has never had any training. Will there be any chance of him getting out soon? He was classi fied ip F-4 and put to A-l.—A read er, Remlap, Ala. A. Indications are that your hus band was inducted as a replacement and that he may be in limited service, but the chances of his early dis charge are not good. Q. How can I get medical care, other than maternity care, for a sol dier’s family? I have three children who must have medical care and I am under a doctor’s care myself. —Mrs. W. R., Wilmington, BI.A. Write to the nearest army med ical center, or apply to your local Red Cross and they may advise you. Q. What does the navy get dis charge potote for? Do they get any points for battle stars or citations? —Mrs. A. A., Dennison, Ohio. A. Under present regulations navy discharge points are awarded only as follows: One-half point for each year of age; one-half point for each month of active service; one-quarter point for each month of sea duty; ten points for dependency. Forty-one points are necessary for discharge. Any navy man with three children is eligible for discharge. Q. My husband was told when entering the service that he would be discharged six months after the war. WilL he get out by then or will he have to stay in the army until he has enough points?—L. L., Gloster, Miss.A. The chances are he will have to stay until he is eligible for discharge under the point system. The war is not officially ended until de clared so by proclamation of the Presidoit or by congress.Q. If a man is sent to the Pacific for occupation, how long will he have to stay? — Mrs. K. C., Dennison,' Ohio.A. His service would depend entirely upon the number of points he has earned and the nature of his service. Q. My husband, a veteran of World War I, did not receive his transportation home after being honorably discharged. Can he still col lect his transportation? — Mrs. L. D., St. Maries, Idaho. - A. It is 25 years late, but you might write to the office of the Ad jutant GeneraL War department. Q. How long is it permissible for a discharged soldier to wear a full uniform after arriving home? — M. E. T., Onekama, Mich. A. The regulations provide a sol dier may wear his uniform .up to 90 days after his discharge.

C THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. D D BARUCH PREDICTS INFLATION WASHINGTON. — Elder States man Beraie Baruch revealed some interesting figures on inflation re-' cently in an off-the-record session with 14 younger congressmen at his Shoreham hotel apartment. Baruch’s prediction was that the nation was hell-bent for inflation—and soon. Piecemeal increases in wages, profits and the cost of living have been uneven, Baruch said, with wages lagging behind. For that rea son he no longer favored his prewar idea of a freeze on both prices and wages. * Our only hope, said the el der statesman, is that we can weath er the next six to nine months with out running into serious inflation. If we do that, our chances of a strong I recovery from the war boom are good. “The huge pent-up demand for products which we will see dur ing the next nine months is a very serious threat,” said Baruch, stressing the importance of holding prices down. He amazed his listeners by say ing that he is completely opposed to tax reduction of any nature at this time. “Not only does the govern ment lose needed revenue, but it is an unhealthy thing for our general economy,” argued Baruch. Rep. Andy Biemiller of Milwaukee asked what Baruch thought of the statement by General Motors’ pres ident C. E. Wilson that if wages are raised 30 per cent, prices must go up 30 per cent Baruch talked at some length on the general question of ris ing prices, but gave no direct an swer. FinaEy, BiemiEer repeated his question. “I’m afraid I can’t agree with Mr. Wilson,” Baruch said. WAGE NOT FRICE INCREASE 1W It true ft'at industry sail, give a 30 per cept wage increase w it h o u t h a v in g t o r a is e p r ic e s m o r e than about IVz per cent?” BiemilIer p e r s i s t e d , “You are approximately right,” Baruch agreed. “I believe the fig ure you may have heard is actuaEy 8% per cent.” Barnch also told his guests that he felt we were making a mistake in speeding manpower demobilization. “With the world in its present situation,” he said, “it seems to me it would be wiser to proceed slowly with de mobilization, in order that we not weaken ourselves at a time when power is apparently still an important thing.” He agreed also with an idea pro posed by one of his guests, EsteaKe- fauver of Chattanooga, to have cab inet members and other high of ficials appear on the floor of can- gress where they can be questioned by congressmen. Such a practice would make for much greater co operation between the executive and legislative departments, Baruch said. Present in addition to BiemiEex and Kefauver were Representa tives Albert Gore and Percy Priest of Tennessee, John Sparkman of Al abama, Mike Mansfield of Montana, Henry Jackson of Washington, Jer ry Voorhis and Chet HoEfield of Cal ifornia, Bob Sikes of Florida, Mike Monroney of Oklahoma, Bob Ram- speck of Georgia, and Jamie Whit ten and Arthur Winstead of Missis sippi.• « * CHURCHILL IN DEFEAT Winston ChurchiB recently told friends how he felt after his defeat in the British elections. The first few days after his defeat were ter rible, ChurchiB confessed. The very next morning he arose and fretted because there were no diplomatic ca bles to read. Through the war, his first morning chore was to read the top-secret military and diplomatic cables from aE over the empire; and he paced up and down intermittent ly for days, fretting becausfe. there were no cables coming in and- be cause, though he felt things were going wrong, there was no one to, whom he could send cables to' straighten things out. “FinaBy I went down to the south of France,” ChurchiB confessed. “They treated me weB there. I painted several pictures and they fed me some wonderful food. But stiB I couldn’t get over this idea of no cables coming in and no cables going out. Each morning I fretted when I read the papers. But finally one morning I felt better. It sud denly dawned on me that I wasn’t prime minister any mote and it wasn’t my worry, and I’ve felt bet ter ever since.” Note — Churchill’s health is touch and go. His. doctor has ordered him to cut down on his food and drinking.* « * SENATE ELDER STATESMEN Here are the ages of the elder statesmen of the senate: Bankhead of Alabama, 73; George of Georgia, 67; Thomas of Idaho. 71; WiBis of Indiana, 70; Capper of Kansas, 80; Reed of Kansas, 74; Barkley of Ken tucky, 68; White of Maine, 68; Walsh of Massachusetts, 73; BUbo of Mis sissippi, 68; Murray of Montana, 69; McCarran of Nevada, 69; BaBey of North Carolina, 72; Moore of Okla homa, 74; Green of Rhode Island, 78; Austin of Vermont,j*8 and Mc- KeBar of Tennessee, 76.

C. ‘One Man Army’ Home O W G fiA im A N D N IC E GrantlandRice Maj. Arthur Wermuth, dubbed the ’one man army of Bataan” who was recently released from Jap prison camp, shown as he was greeted by Ids mother at San Francisco. He left shortly afterwards for home. W HETHER or not he is the greatest, Harry Gilmer of Ala bama is beyond any argument the most amazing back that footbaB can show today. Doc Blanchard, army’s brilliant back, weighs 205 pounds and can run the 100 in 10 flat. Glenn Davis, another army bril- Uant, 180 pounds, is the fastest man in football. H a r r y G ilm e r , b a r e ly 19 y e a r s o ld , weighs 1^58 pounds and he has no su c h s p e e d a s either Blanchard or D avis can show . And yet I saw him pass and run Ala bama into-26 points against Duke last winter, whUe tack- Bng aE over the field. This faU he threw th ree touchdow n passes against a strong L. S. U. team to carry Alabama into a 26 to 7 victory over the team that wrecked Georgia. He then passed and ran Texmessee dizzy to win by 25 to 7. Gilmer has already proved him self to be one of the best passers of aE time. I’d rank him as the greatest passer in footbaB today, col lege or pro. But the most amazing part of this 158-pound kid is that he is one of the best aU-over-the-field tacklers you’B see in many years, that he is a fine ball carrier who is not only elusive but who can hold his feet with a 190-pound back. Also that he is one of the most accurate kickers in the game today. B atters B ig L in esm en Against Teimessee he kicked out O f b o u n d s o n t h e V o lu n t e e r s ' 4- y a r d line. Ie play ms del back, Od his second shot Gilmer again kicked out on the 4-yard line. Also against the big forward walls of L. S. U. and Tennessee he drove his way through the lines as well as he cut around the flanks, carrying 200- pounders for 4 and 5 extra yards. How often do you see a star pass er, a fine ball carrier and a good kicker starring in a defensive role? After the Duke-Sugar Bowl game last winter I ran into Tom Davis, Duke’s fast, 190-pound back. Gilmer?” he said. “He is no 158- pounder. He must have nailed me 10 times today, and I thought he was going to tear me apart.” But 158 to 160 is Gilmer’s weight, with which he does the job of four men. For example, in three big games against Duke, L. S. U. and Ten nessee, he was largely responsible for the 77 points Alabama scored. GBmer’s three main ingredients are poise, timing and skiB. The Ala bama star has thin shoulders, a rather thin chest, but he also has a pair of powerful legs and two big, Strong hands. Knoclting on wood for the sake of Frank Thomas, he is also as durable as hickory. He can handle a heavy battering without slowing down. The kid is as cold as an ice berg. You never see him rattled or hurried. He has a pair of blue-gray eyes that get the picture before him in a flash—even when he is in mid air throwing a pass. Handling the bafl from center on a running or a passing play, he always seems to be taking his time, and yet he gets the bafl away or starts his run with out any waste of time. Coolness and Timing Frank Thomas tefls me that no breaks of the game ever upset him in the least. “I’ve never seen any one,” Thomas says, “who knows better exactly what to do under aB conditions. He can whip a buflet pass as Baugh does, or give -you a 50- yard arm throw of the Luckman type. And he rarely misses his tar get. If he ever made a single bad or wild pass, I never saw it. But it is his coolness, his timing, his dura- biflty that makes his skifl stand out. He throws his shorter passes with a wrist flip that can’t be intercepted. And he can also nafl a receiver 50 yards away, after leaving his feet for the jump.” WhUe GBmer has been a leading factor in carrying Alabama to vic tory, he isn’t the only footbaB play, er Frank Thomas has on his squad. Big Mancha, one of the best centers j in footbaB, beads a strong, fast I charging Bne. Tew and Hodges are j two hard running backs. This is the j best team Alabama has sent into action in some years, and Ala- I bama has had more than her share of winning games and winning years. I Also such stars as Don Hutson, Pool- ey Hubert, Mack Brown, HoweU, Hurry Cain, Jenkins, Whitmire and now Gilmer and Mancha. • * • Fumbling All Around If you happen to look over vari ous accounts of footbaB games around the map you wiU run into stories of constant fumbling. This is partly due to the shape of the mod ern v footbaB which is fashioned largely for' a passing attack. It is biiUt more like a short javelin than, anything else, being narrow and pointed. A fumble, recovered by the other side, usually costs from 46 to 50 yards. The shape of the bafl is at least a big part of the epidemic. C L A S S IF IE D DEPARTM E NT BUSINESS & INVEST.

CHAPTER XIV I Ken brought his horse over the tine as he had done before—the eame, hard gallop, with the colt B g h tin g his head and unwilling to obey. It made Ken mad that just now when he wanted perfomiance T h u n d e r h e a d would do nothing but fight. AU right then—let it be war. This battling with the stallion was bring ing out something in the boy that had never been there before. He raised the light crop he held and brought it down on the colt’s haunches as hard as he could. Thun- derhead leaped in the air and tried to shake Ken off. Ken could feel the power and anger surge into his own body. He raised his arm and brought the crop down again. When the horse lit this time he was going. It was the long floating effortless pace that had been Rocket’s. Ken sat motionless on the tiny saddle. Down to the turn, around the posts, up the other side— NeU glanced at Charley. “See that?” she said. “That’s what I mean.”“And he’s not even trying,” said Charley in a daze.“He’s coming! He’s coining! screamed Howard. “Look at the watch—”Sargent gave a start. He hadn’t had his eyes off the colt, he hadn’t timed him. He waved his arm and yelled at Ken, “Keep going! Go around again!”Ken’s eyes flickered up to him as he passed, but he didn’t turn his bead. There was a rapt look on his face. , “Gosh! He runs in the air! howled Sargent. “He doesn’t touch the ground!” Howard was jumping up and down. “Keep it up! Keep it up! Thunderhead! Thunderhead!” NeU felt hysterical. She sudden ly put her face into her hands. The beauty of it. The super-perform ance—and Ken sitting so still—the victory at last—the two-year-long battle—the faith—the exhaustion— the cuts and bruises and strains she had to bind up—and now, Victory— She raised her head and looked again. Coming back up the home stretch!— Coming! One long sus tained yell from Sargent—and the horse over the line, Ken trying to puU him up—swinging around in circles—Howard’s voice squawking —“What did he make, Mr. Sargent? What did he make?”—while Sar gent was trying to scramble down the rock. Thunderhead had made the half- mile in forty-seven seconds. “Oh, Kennie—Kennie—’ , “Gee, Ken—he did it—Gee!” “That horse! He’s one of the sev en wonders of the world!" Thunderhead was fighting. He wanted to keep going. Ken had hardly come back yet from the ec stasy in which he had ridden. His glowing face with the slightly part ed lips was half unconscious. . “Could he do it again? Has he ever done it before? We’ll let him rest a little, then give him another 6pin.” “Rest?” said Howard. “He’s not tired. He never gets tired. ■ He hates to be stopped when he geta going. That’s why he’s mad now.” They decided to try the colt again; and again they climbed to the ledge and timed his start, arifr again Ken fought with him to control him, forced him over the line, and was shaken by the angry, rough gallop— by his breaking through the posts. iThe struggle went on—the lashinjg of the crop—the scarlet face of the :boy, while Charley grew grave and ;the little group, on the ledge no 'longer chattered with excitement, but stood silent. At last Sargent was hopeless. “It rwas a fluke,” he said. “He’s un- 'controllable.”"M lMi Mi Sargcati K'5*'' it . J J l I 1 The colt had broken through his ,temperamental impediments. He burst IaIo Iik swift, M M W 'and went streaming around the !track. As he crossed the line Sarr jgent punched the watch. They held their breath. Sargent’s mouth was wide open in a crazy grin. His eyes popped. ^ The gelding.rFor days and nights Ken had been thinking of it. The better the colt jbehaved, the more speed he showed, the more despair Ken felt. They told him and they argued with him, and they proved it to him. The colt would lose no iota of his speed— might even have more, because his energies would not be wasted in fighting, in running after mares, in breeding them. It made no differ ence to Ken. He had seen the colts before gelding, the power that flowed * " ' .Ji:. J . them rear and play and fight and wrestle; making their tails and manes lift like flying banners; giving a look of individuality and passion to their faces—and he had seen them after. Seen the change in the car riage of the head, the look of the eye, the appearance of the colt, the general behavior. Nothing would reconcile him. But his father had decided. What could one do in such a jam? Fortitude. When you couldn’t have what you wanted, you accepted defeat with fortitude. His mother said you could pray—but you needn’t think you’d get what you wanted, you’d just get the strength to bear the disappointment. . Those days made a change'in Ken’s face and character. He said IitUe about it. The more you ar gued and plead the less likely his fa ther was to yield. His mother was really on his side, but she left such things to his father. She felt that he really knew best. It happened that on the morning of the day of Ken’s trial race down on the track a call came into the office of the veterinarian at Lara mie. It was from Barney, the ranch er west of the Goose Bar, stating that he had a sick cow who needed to be cleaned out after a premature calving. Could Dr. Hicks come out and take care of her? Dr. Hicks and Bill, his assistant, arrived at the Barney ranch about one o’clock. Theyworked overthe cow for a couple of hours. When they were leaving, Dr. Hides said, “It’s only a few miles down the back road to the Goose Bar. We’ll stop in there and geld those two-year- “How’s your muscle?”- asked Nell. olds of Captain McLaughlin.” They arrived at the stables soon after Rob had driven off with the blacks. Gus went out with a bucket of oats and called in the colts, and the men got to work.“Is that all?” asked Doc, when he had gelded seven. “I thought the Captain said eight.” 'Dere’s one more,” said Gus, “Ken’s colt. De white one.” “Oh, the throwback!” said Doc. “The one Ken thinks is going to be a racer. How’s he cornin’ on?” “He runs right gude now,” said Giis. “Maybe they don’t want him geld ed.” * “De Captain wants him gelded all right. Mebbe you cud wait a little, while I go down and help Tim wid de milkin’? Ken tuk de colt out a while back—he might be home any mirmit.” Doc and Bill took seats on the corral fence and ^rolled cigarettes and waited. The shadows grew longer. They heard the cowbells as the cows, aft er being milked, wandered out into the pasture; then the sound of the separator whirring in the milk house as it cut the milk in half, pouring a rich, foaming, white fluid into one jar, a thick yellow cream into the other.At last Doc told Bill to pack up Ken felt almost awed when he ^ the stables with Howard, having driven the Macks home in the “jouncing cart,” and heard from Gus what had happened. There stood the seven gelded colts in the east corral, their heads hanging life* lessly, their hind legs covered with blood. Thunderhead, said Gus, had come galloping in with Touch And Go some ten minutes after Doc had left. He had unsaddled him and turned them both out into the home pasture. Ken stared at Ihe geldings while the blood rushed through his body and sank again. This meant—this meant—Doc had made his trip to the ranch! S s father would never or der him up again to geld one coltl Ken leaped in the air with a whoop of triumph. “Goshl” said Howard. “You’re ■hot in the head with lucki ” * i - / T 0 «*, ^ So ThunderhW was not gelded. A year before, the Albino had recognized in Thunderhead a reflec tion of himself in miniature. But gelding would have changed that. It would have left the colt, perhaps, a successful racer; it would' have made him more useful to men and amenable to their demands; but never again would he have been a creature who could have com manded the notice of his royal great grandfather. Nell had hardly recovered from the emotion she had felt when she saw Ken’s triumph. And the fact that the colt had escaped gelding (for Rob had said that since Doc had come .and gone he could wait another year) gave her an even stranger feeling ef unreality. When obstacles vanished, they just floated away—as if they never had been— “He is going to be a racer after all, isn’t he, dad?” “Looks like it, son.” “And all our troubles will' be over.” “What are you going to do with all the money, Ken?” “He’s going to pay back a lot that he owes me!” “And he can pay for his own edu cation!”, “And pay off the note on the ranch.” “And put wooden fences around it —he’s promised me that! ” Mother, you’ve got to tell me what you want! I’ve asked you and asked you and you never have.” “Can I have three wishes?” “Ves—three things. Make them big things, mother!” “I want a swan sleigh all covered with bells! I want a monkey tree! And I want a little girl!” “What is a monkey tree?” asked Charlie. “It’s a kind of big old pine tree here on the ranch—there are only a couple of dozen of them,” Howard explained. “We were looking at one one day long ago—They are a queer shape with branches all twisting ev ery which way, and mother said it had a face like an old monkey’s.” “Mother,” insisted Ken, “tell me some other wishes—real wishes that I could get you.” “He wants to buy her joo-oo-oolsl” clowned .Howard. “Better cross your fingers, Ken," said Charley. “Many a slip betwixt the cup and the lip, you know—” In the interchange of talk and flashing glances that played around the table, Nell’s look crossed Rob’s. They stared a moment. She felt the impact of his animosity. He hadn’t forgiven her for what she had said last night. When they were alone together, he was smooth and easy— as if it were forgotten—but with people around, he lowered his guard and let her see the truth. While they argued as to whether it would be better for Thunderhead to be raced this coming fall or wait until he was a three-year-oH, and decided on the latter, she sat at the end of the table, feeling all her elation dying down. Thunderhead’s success began to seem very remote —indeed, unlikely. No. The odds were, nothing would come of it. The colt had, apparently, run a half- mile faster than it had ever been run before. Could that be true? According to recorded runs, yes. But there-were many colts in the world besides those who ran in races —many colts who had been clocked on makeshift tracks like this one who might have—must have, broken records, and yet, for one reason or another, never were heard of. Why? Things happened. They got hurt, or stale, or proved a flash in the pan, or unmanageable— “For you see,” said Charley, “we know now he’s got it in him. Ifs there. But he’s an unmanageable brute. He can’t be depended on. He needs a lot of training and disci pline. Besides, he‘ hasn’t got his growth yet. In another year, when he’s settled down, he’ll be unbeat able!” He gave Ken’s back a. resounding whack! “Young fellah, me lad, you’U have a whiner! How’ll it feel to be the famous owner of a famous horse?” But Ken had a thought “Sup pose,” he said lugubriously, “we get him all trained for a race, and then' he runs away and we can’t find him?” Rob glanced at Ken, then at NelL His expression was sardonic. “Ken, you take after your mother more Uibd any bojr a right to.” H s tja f t Bob's - ml finished her sUced peaches. What was die matter wi(k him? K wasn't only the quarrel of last night—that had left him hard and cold toward her, but now he was in a state- had been all evening—ever since— ever since—yes, ever since he ar rived at the race track in that ridicu lous cart—what had he been doing before—Oh, yes, he went out on Gypsy—went out on Gypsy to see Bellamy and ask if he was going to take the lease again this fall— Ah! She put down her spoon and sat motioidess, staring a hole through the table—her mind rushed forward. Charley was shouting that with a horse of such potential value as Thunderhead, they would never dream of putting him out on tbf range that winter?

Lesson for December 2 , Leason subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by Internatltmal Council of Rengious Education: used by perm ission. THE CHRISTIAN AND HIS ECONOMIC RELATIONS LESSON TEXT: Deut. 8:17, 18; Luke 12:13-21. GOLDEN TEXT: A man’s life eonsisteth not In the abundance of the things which he Possesseth--Luke 12:15. Peace and the postwar period find America, and in fact the entire world, plunged into tremendous eco nomic problems far too deep for any man or group of men to solve. We honor those who are laboring day and night to meet the threat of un employment, the question of recon version and readjustment to civilian production, of feeding a hungry world, etc. But we say again, they cannot find the answers in the wis dom of men; they must have the wisdom of God. We need to turn anew to the eco nomic principles’ taught in God's Word. If men will only recognize them, and deal with their fellow- men in the light of their teaching, the many knotty problems will sure ly find solution. There is need, first of all, of a fundamental philosophy concerning possessions which will make man deal properly with them. The first section of our lesson says to us: I. Think Right About Wealth (Deut. 8:17, 18). How trenchant and altogether fit ting are the words of Scripture! Nothing could describe our times more succinctly and accurately than verse 17. Men are glorying in their ability to do things. Man has even gone so far as to develop a weapon of warfare, the atomic bomb, so powerful that he fears it might be used to wipe out all civilization. Even secular lead ers are now saying that we must have a spiritual rebirth if we are to use such things for good and not for evil. Man needs God now more than ever. We honor those who by skillful hand and brilliant brain produce ex cellent and thrilling results. But our question is, How many are there who say, God has done this thing; He gave the strength and the skill; His is the honor? Some there are who thus recognize Him, but they are few indeed. Their name is le gion who say in their heart, “My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth” (v. 17). Joseph Parker points out that a deep conviction of the fact stated in verse 18 “would turn human history into a sacrament.” He says, “What a blow this text strikes at one of the most popular and mischievous fallacies in common life; namely, that man is the maker of his own money!” n . Act Right About Wealth (Luke 12:13-21). Most of us think of money . as something we want to get hold of and use for ourselves, but if it be longs to God, and we are only his stewards, we must put away that impulse. “Take heed,” said Jesus, “and beware of covetousness” -(v. 15). It is a deadly and deadening sin, all too common even among Christian people. The teaching of this whole pas sage of Scripture is so directly op posite to all ideas regarding such matters accepted by the world at large, that it may be a total sur prise to some readers and attend ants at Bible school. The yardstick of success in the world for an individual, an organiza tion, or a nation, yes, even for many a church, is the possession of wealth, or property, or other “things.” Write it in large letters on the hearts and minds of our boys and girls, “A man’s life eonsisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (v. 15). The one who was known to his friends (and to himself) as “a rich man” (v. 16), but whom God knew as a “fool” (v. 20), had more than he could use for himself. He had to build new and bigger barns, and could not see the “barns” that were already prepared, for, as Ambrose says, “Thou hast barns — the bosoms of the needy, the houses of widows, the mouths of orphans and infants.” He was a fool who loved money for itself and for himself. One won- self w h that very night be was called into the presence of God togi« w Ntwl« Dii M l i j (v. 20). If you are similarly situ ated and have the same attitude, what will you say in that day? There is an im portant point which we must note. Jesus expressly repudiated the connecting of His name with the so-caned “social gospel” in His reply (v. 14) to. the question of the covetous fellow who regarded his inheritance as of more importance than brotherly love.Those who are ignoring the gospel of redemption and claiming Jesus as a social reformer, or the “judge and divider” ot some new economic solution for the world’s ills, need to read and ponder this verse. Every Christian is interested deep ly in social problems, but knows that the first concern of Christ and His followers is the souls of Inen 1 SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS A Pretty apd Practical Apron I ittle G irls J u s t L o re B a b j D o lls / 2 | & 8 5 2 i I Coverall Apron replenishing?

Treasury Department Farmers Have L ess to W orry Them This T im e Washington, D. C.—Farm prices stand .at 208 per cent of the 1909-1914 average —higher than the prices of 1918—and will drop again bnt not as sharply as In .1921 becanse the Government is required by law to maintain support prices of at least 90 per cent of parity for two full calendar years following the year In which the war ends, The Department of Agriculture has announced. The announcement Indicates the farm er will not be a victim of a drop In prices similar to that which followed the last war In 1921 when prices hit the low of IlB per cent of the Hay, 1920, level which was 285 per cent of the 1909- 1914 IeveL Thus the farmer will have more money than after the last war. War Finance Committee officials said that In addition to the maintenance of the price level for two years, that nonfarm families already have, and are accumulating, weekly savings through the Payroll Savings Plan of the War Finance Division of the Treasury. - This, they claim Is proof the non-farm front will be much better able to support itself than after the last war during the normal lull of reconversion. Buyers of farm products will have the money to buy, It was said, and farmers should avail themselves of the opportunity to acquire War Bonds during the Victory Loan so as to have the money with which to modernize and handle the nonfarm market demands that will be backed with cash to pay sustained prices during the two years after fighting ceases. The Payroll Saving Plan has sold $18,- 000,000,000 In War Bonds to wage'earners, that great bulk of non-farmers who will, if need be, enjoy the fruits of their savings In the reconversion period and have the cash with which to support themselves. Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson adds that "prosperity of the farm depends primarily on purchasing power In the city.’’ Mix-Match Style Victory Bond A id I white decked skirt, white id gold weskit to be worn with ier pieces.

Jttktasu Dead Wood In my early 20’s I had frequent dealings with a small but old and reputable manufacturing corporation. One day I lunched with a gray haired employee, Hie superintend ent, who was quite unhappy. They had lost their biggest contract. The lost customer was a young and thrifty retail firm whose needs had finally grown too large for the old manufacturer to supply. Price had been a consideration, of course. My companion admit ted that several competitors could quote a lower price and make a profit when M t plant could not. It was on account of the modern, high speed equipment which the competi tors used. Naturally I asked why the old house couldn't install bet ter machinery. The superintendent simply wagged his head and said, "dead wood.” Unused Hands “Our Mg boss is the chairman,” he explained. “His brother is pres ident of the company. Each of them has a son who is a'vice-president. The secretary and the treasurer are both sons-in-law. I don’t see any of them twice a year but they draw salaries as big as mine. We can’t buy new equipment. Sometimes we are hard put to pay for current materials promptly.” This was 25 years ago when a lot of ranting (not altogether unjusti fied) was heard about the “idle rich.” But the tables have turned. America’s threat now is “idle poor.” This is more dangerous because the poor are more numerous. Idle hands can ride any business to the ground because they retard production. In different workers are no less guilty than pampered payrollers. Public Enemies I was much impressed by an arti cle in the Houston Press a few weeks ago, written by a returned service man. He had started to'work in an .office soon after he was discharged and, six weeks later, penned his con tempt for civilian workers, men and women. They systematically fritter away 50% of their working time, he charged. They can do it because of the scarcity of workers. There is an imported, alien doc trine that capitalists will make too much profit for the good of the pub lic unless workers retard production some way. It is venomous. Nation al enemies at whom American sol diers are thrusting bayonets today are relatively harmless. They are much less liable to do humanity per manent harm than the slick sabo teurs who plant a philosophy of idle ness in the minds of honest workers. Work and Live America’s unique place among world powers, the singularly high standard of living among American workers and fa rm e rs, o u r national income and our national safety, de pend on work. Ability and willing ness to make things well and mate them fast have put the United States on top of the world. It is the secret of American prosperity, but in a startling degree our people are being led away from the idea. The world soon will be a market for manufactured goods, a market of millions of people in poverty. If America fails to supply their needs, quickly and at a price (possible with efficient production) then cheap- labor countries will take the busi ness. Dead wood can cheat Uncle Sam out of world trade and leave us to stew again in our own over supply, with low wages and poor liv ing conditions which we don’t want and which aren’t necessary.
