Hard To UDdentand A week or so ago we saw a group of boys about twenty five in num ber, leaving the postoffice building in Raleigh and bound for active duty in the armed service, Thewar has been over many mdnv months, but the draft Iawis still in effect. Like many otHers, we are beginning to wonder, what it’s all about. . -p; Why should these youngsiers be .taken out of school when there is no justificariop reason for it? Certainlo there trie enough men in the regular. Army, Navy. Marines and Coiast Gtririd- service to take care of the present-day situation at home and abroed.

Connty Has Hnge Joh More than $370,000 is expected to be spent during the next five years by Davie County home own ers on remodeliug and repair work. The year 1946 promises to inau gurate one of the greatest areas in American history, for., home pairs and modernization, accord ing to estimates 'released by the Tile Council of America. “Few developments will contribute more fb employment and general pros*, perity in any community,” accord ing to R- El Jordan, ehairman of die Coimdl’s Residential Con- stmctiori'Committee. Because,.of lack of materials and manpower during the war, major ity of die county’s 3,398- dwelling units are in need of some kind of repair or remodeling work. Kitch en improvements and moderniza tion of bathrooms, installation of tiled showers and in some homes addition of a second bath top the nation's list ofmost wanted mr- jor improvements, Jordan said. Outside paint jobs are needed on more than 50 per cent of homes, and addition of rooms and construction of porches also I rarik high in remodeling plans, accord ing to the report. New roofing and heating plants are required by Ihany dwellings. ' Home owners in ,North Caro lina will spend an estimated $89;- . 870,000 arid those of. the nation more foan $5,500,000,000 for ma jor ty(fiurs alone in the next five, years; according to Jordan. Ample funds, at low interest charges, are available for such work through commercial banks, savings and loan associations, crsdit unions, and mutual savings banks. My Notions I have known all the time that there should be some good use for which lipstick could be em ployed. And sure enough, I 'was right. Up in Asbury Park, N .. J., a woman fell in her second-story apartment and so crippled herself that-she could not call for aid. She lay helpless for 24 hours when she wrote on a card with lipstick, ’Please call doctor immediately,” and put the card in her window. The neighbors saw die appeal and got a doctor. » Thereprobably aremany other useful ways of using lipstick, paint ing the face of scarecrows, for ex ample. Or circus clowns might find it useful. But why the IatUes' smear it on their natural beauty I have never been able to figure Out., Thrire are few things sweeter chan a woihan’8 mouth—I mean to look at—when it is not fenced in with blood-red lipstick. Personally I had rather see ’em paint their ears red and leave their lips to be admired—John WesJey Clay, in Winston-Salem Journal.

Something to be thankful for— die turkey hash has at last been consumed.___________ The first peace-time Christmas since 1940 has come and gone. The fighting has ceased, but peace and good will to men does not prevail throughout the world. The country is suffering from unrest and the sound of die pisJol is heard more often than die song of die mocking-bird. There are strikes and rumors of strikes in all parts of the world, and crime stalks abroad at noon-day. The profiteer and black market flour ishes iike the green bay tree. The automobile is killing and maim ing as many or|more people than the Japanese army did while die war was in progress. May we all hope and pray that world condit- . ions will soon grow better.

Davie Health News Dr. Mordecai, District Health Officer, deplores die fact that school buildings throughout due county are not used to die fullest extent. A large amount of capi tal is invested in these buildings and their range of usefulness could be extended in every' com munity. M anyof these schools are equipped with excellent as sembly halls, auditoriums and gym nasiums. These could be used to great advantage to the commun ity under die guidance of the Par- ent-Teacher Associations and die Scout leaders. ‘Community sing- js should be revived. There could be mass gatherings of young people and old for indoor games, old-fashioned dances, such as the Virginia reel and square dances. Guest speakers from well sponsor ed city organizations, community plays and many other social affairs for the general good of die com munity could and should be sche duled under responsible leader ship. This sort of thing is in line at this time with the Governor’s plea for community aetion to pro vide suitable environments for die young folk with a view to curbing delinquency. Too many of our young folks are patronizing juke-joints, cheap dance halls, pool rooms and die like for the simple reason that we make no other provision for their entertainment. Under die pres ent set-up school buildings are al most completely unused on week ends, public holidays and through out die long summer months. ALFRED MORDECAI, M. D, Health Officer. Davie Farm News !

The cottage cheese adds savory flavor to these fried noodles, when it is allowed to melt over them before serving. Broiled tomatoes with pars ley are an attractive garnish. Are you one of those homemakers who finds herself with a refrigerator full of leftovers and does not know what to do? Yes, I know it is some times difficult to disguise these bits, of turkey or chick-' en or roast, but glance at some of these recipes I’m giving you today! They’ll prove to you leftovers can be palatable. If you have had a large roast, then serve all the meat from it sliced, until you get down to the bones and can cut off meat only in chunks or bits. Then go to work with your eggs, milk, etc., and make something out of it. Even the bones can be used as a base for delicious soup, after the meat is gone. Don’t feed the gar bage pail with rich tidbits that can really be good eating. Chicken Loaf.

Keep the main-supply in its original paraffined carton in the main storage section of the refrigerator. Remember that butter is Ur del icate vfood -. and easily absorbs -other flavors, in the refrigera tor. One way to make1 sure of the delicious flavor is to make sure, it is always kept in. a paraffined paper carton.'

C- PAT BDBlET ALWATS A STORMT PETBEL WASHINGTON.—This town, dead ly afraid of peacetime boredom, pricked up its ears and licked its chops when Pat Hurley issued his stentorian resignation as ambassa dor to China. It then settled down, to enjoy a good show.Washington has known Pat ever since 1912 when as a dashing young attorney from Oklahoma he used to appear before congressional com- thittees for the Choctaw nation, and they know he always puts on a good show. Once in testifying be fore the senate insular affairs com mittee as secretary of war, Pat shouted: “You ,cannot call me a liar. You can run your star-cham ber sessions without me. I have taken all I can stand.” Whereupon he flounced out of the room. Some years earlier, Pat ap peared before the house Indian af fairs committee to oppose opening the tribal rolls of the Choctaw na tion to certain Indians who claimed they were euchered out of their tribal lands. And he was severely criticized by Webster Ballinger, who pointed out that just two years be fore, Hurley had represented the Wards, an Indian family which sought to have the Choctaw tribal rolls opened. Thus Hurley was in the position of arguing on both sides of the same question in the brief period of two years. Pat was not quite as ferocious In those days, however, and for some unexplained reason did not threaten to kick Ballinger out of the com mittee room. PATRICK J. O’HDRLEY Pat Hurley has come a long way from those days when Oklahoma was _ an Indian territory. Born O’Hurley, he dropped the "0" and the Catholic religion of his father to become a Baptist, and after working his way through an Indian college, he had the courage to come to Washington, take a law de gree at George Washington, and marry the daughter of Adm. Henry B. Wilson, then and now one of the most beautiful ladies in the capital. It is a long way from such lowly beginnings to his more recent inter views with Joe Stalin, his airplane flights through the Near East, and his powerful position as the right bower of Generalissimo Chiang Kai- shek. But Pat has staged a colorful persona] row at almost every milestone along the way- - In Chungking, he first rowed with Gen. Al Wedemeyer over the ques tion of sending a mission to the so- called Communist section of China to evaluate the importance of its military strength. For a while he and Wedemeyer weren’t speaking to each other though they occupied ad joining bedrooms in the *same house. Later at* a Chungking oocktai] party, Wedemeyer’s chief of staff, Maj. Gen. Robert B. McClure, chided Hurley for sending General Marshall a telegram of .protest against Wedemeyer. “You pup,” boiled the ex-cow- puncher from Oklahoma, “I've shot men for less than that.” Guests had to separate the two men. The Chinese - looked on, amused but not impressed. In China it brings severe loss of face to fight in public. "Pat is Pat,” mused FDR when informed of the fuss, “and there’s nothing you can do about him." CHRISTMAS CAROLS - If you happen near the secondary office of Rep. Leslie Arends of Illi nois, house Republican whip, deep in the sub-basement of the capitol, you can hear strange sounds echo ing through the catacomb-like cor ridors. ~ Arends and his five colleagues are getting their voices in trim for a special. trans-Atlanatic broadcast of Christmas carols — in which six members of the British parliament also will join—to be aired by the Mutual network on December 20. Familiar carols, such as “Oh, Lit tle Town of Bethlehem” - and “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” will be rendered by the legislators. The Americans and Britons will do a joint rendition of "Silent Night:' The other members of the Arends sextet are QOP t Representatives Harve Tibbott of Pennsylvania, Paul Shafer of Michigan, Harry Towe of New Jersey, Frank1 Fellows of Maine and William Hill of Colorado. The singing congressmen occa sionally vary their practice sessions with "Sweet Adeline,1” according to Macon Reed, Mutual hews report er, a former army corporal who is helping to arrange the Christmas broadcast. However, Reed insists there is no “liquid encouragement” at such times. CAPITAL CHAFF California’s new young Republican Sen. William. F. KnowIand was the only member of the senate to-chal lenge Sen.

The leading chal lenger for the heavyw eight title takes Hus’ angle— : “A num ber of .people have won: dered what sort of fighting form Joe Louis .and I would be~ able to show by the date of o meeting next sum mer. A lot of them seem to think that the bout will be nothing but a pair of worn out old- timers doing the best they can. That doesn’t make any sense In my book. “You remember they thought the same way - about a lot of' ball play ers. There was Hank-Greenberg, out four years; around 35 years old. But Hank was almost as good as ever, after -a short workout. Then there’s Red Ruffing, close to 40. And you can take up Bob Feller, Charlie Keller, and most of the oth ers. Most of the returned veterans have stepped right back into the middle of things. And several of them were older than Joe Louis, much older than I am. ’’Both Louis and I have at least two advantages over most of' the ball players—Greenberg, anyway. We’ve been-doing a.lot of boxing:: I've bad something like 350 exhibi tions to'handle. That's more work than I’d have gotten if I had stayed at-home. Louis has had Jnat-as much. We’ve both bad enough ring work'to keep pretty wen sharpened. I mean not to get rusty. Will Trim to 182 Pounds “That’s one edge. Now here’s another—as a rule the ball players re turning from service had only a short while to get back in champion ship shape. Louis and'I will have until June. Three months is about all the training anybody needs for a fight. I expect to work my weight from 191 down to 182 pounds. I wouldn’t want to go below that. I certainly won’t lose any of my speed at 182. That’s eight pounds heavier than I was in our first fight, where I was a little too much on the light: side. \ I’d also like to say that I don't figure I’m meeting any old, worn- out fellow in Joe: Louis. After all he is three years younger.than Hank Greenberg and nine years younger tban Red Ruffing, and no one is pick ing on either that I’ve heard about.” There are still one or two rather Important factors that Conn must consider. He' is younger than Louis and he is faster than Louis. But Conn must also know that on the day or night they meet; Louis Will be in the best possible physical shape he can reach. Wlnit about CohnT Billy has al ways bad a leaning in the general direction of the primrose trail. And no such trail ever leads to any top, barring a few exceptions. Omn is young and headstrong, a fellow who likes . a good time. Whb doesn’t? Bat nowneisgoing tobeat even an: aging Joe Louis liking a good time. Joe Louis at 31 is far from being an old man: He is a trifle over the hill, but not so far over. He has always been a greet fighter, and he will be pretty close to being a great fighter - the night he meets Conn, or any one else, with the blue chips down. Billy is a fellow you like, but he has always been irresponsible and hard to direct. He has supreme confidence in himself. He had too much confidence in himself the night he met Louis. For one ex ample, after the 12th round of that fight he wasn’t looking for a mere victory, he was looking for a knock out. Peril of Overconfidence What Conn’s many supporters are afraid of is this—that Conn will take it for granted that he can whip Louis in their next meeting, without work ing too hard to reach this difficult goal. If that happens Conn won’t have a chance. After all, he can’t punch with Louis, either with the right or left hand. -. It might surprise Billy to know how many experts rate Louis the better boxer, granting that Conn has more speed. Taking no credit from Conn, Louis wa3 verging on the side of staleness when they met before. It is my belief that the Bomber will be even harder to beat when they meet again. Conn has never been any too keen about the grind of training. Few-ring men are. But this time Pittsburgh BiUy will need aU he can get—especially road work—and the type of training needed to bring back or to increase - his speed. This doesn’t mean that the likable chal lenger will\have to Bpend all his time until next June on the job. It does, mean, however; that he should get started* along the right road and gradually bring himself to the day he actually moves to bis* training camp for1 tee- final spin. Summer isn’t so far away.

C. ^ Joum ( l& p & ii& i h WASHINGTON By Waltar Shaod WNU WNU WMabtngtoa Bonn, UU Kjt SU ». W. Parity Price FonniiIa Facing Fierce Attack CARM organizations who are now r netting their sights for revision of the parity formula governing prices of farm products have before them a well-defined recipe of how NOT to, make friends and influence- people.. Setting up this formula means ev erything to the farmers and the rural population in these immediate postwar years, just as achieving a labor peace formula meant every thing to management and labor in the- recent labor • management con ference. This much-publicized meeting ended ignomimously in utter failure. But the labor-management conference-was governed by greed, intol erance, bigotry and suspicion, and so' long as these forces govern thought and action there can be no effective performance of democra tic processes. President Truman told the labor- management conference: “I want to make it clear that this is your con ference . . . this is your opportunity to prove that you can come to under standing and agreement without political or governmental pressure.*' And 36 tycoons of management and 36 tycoons of labor met and wrangled for weeks, accomplished nothing, and crawled out of Wash ington with their tails between their legs- They couldn’t deliver because they were unreasonable men on both sides whose attitude was, "the public be damned.” Fact-Finding Boards And now government steps in with the Fresidenbal demand for •congressional action, not to outlaw strikes, but to set up fact-finding boards, much the same as in the Railway Labor act, which has been successful in averting strikes for 19 years. The boards will let the pub lic know the facts on both sides and then there will be a “cooling-off” period of some 30 days during which a strike will be illegal. Whatever be the fate of this legis lation, whether it is passed or not, and'; we believe it will be, labor hasn’t a leg to stand on and neither has management, Jn objecting to so- ealled governm ent interference. Both labor and management have proved they cannot keep their own houses in order, and government has the responsibility for protecting the public interest. When strikes in such national industries as steel and automobiles, telephones, trans portation or other utilities affect large segments of the people, a re sponsible government cannot mere ly "stand by." It ls true that the congress has conducted a sit-down strike on all legislation affecting labor for the re conversion r. period. ,And, labor at tempted to take matters Uio Ito own hands, assuming dictatorial at titudes which have no plaee in our denidcratie way of life.- Manage- mepjt was equally dictatorial and IntpriUUstic and unwilling to give aod take . . . to bargain, In an at tempt to reach a common ground which might be satisfactory to Mi majority concerned. It is the guess of your Hometown Reporter that labor, rather than oppose the President’s recom mendation, had better urge for its passage lest an anti-union congress force.through more drastic reforms, which might in the end hurt the unions seriously. The • President’s recommendations can help labor and management both, since the plan has vrorked successfully over a long period in the case of the railroads and their employees. Must Be Fcdr to AU So reconversion for the agricul tural industry, which will include such troublesome questions as sur pluses, subsidies, a new parity price formula and other factors, must consider the public interest as well as that of the farmers. A com mon ground of agreement satisfac tory to a majority of those inter ested must be found. As Secretary of Agriculture Clin ton P. Anderson pointed t out In a recent speech before the milk pro ducers in Philadelphia: "subsidies are still In effect.'Now I know that milk producers generally prefer to get all of their prices . In the market Place. Hoantver, holding the line on cost of living Is vital if we are to Prevent disastrous inflation which could ruin 'the future Ot .'farmers and of city folks alike." Which brings into, focus.the,point, that fair prices to farmers as Well as fair wages for labor should be an the basis-of abundance, of pro duction at prices that are. fair to both the producer and the con sumer. Thne-prices, in the ease, of the farmer and laborer as well, would assure to both a fair share oi the national Income. ;With the example of stupid intoler ance and bickering as set by the labor • management Cunfeiencof^the farm leaders have only to steer an opposite,cojuae whsn hearings begin On their own problems.

"That’s what he was saying to Charley,” insisted Bess Gifford. "And I can’t.see what they go on raising horses for—" "Just for the fun of giving ’em away," said Charley, "or seeing ’em lose on the race track.” "Did you really, Rob?” asked Genevieve Scott."I did," said Rob grinning. "Who could have done it but met I hit that sale with two carloads of horses just when the Argentine polo play ers were unloading their stuff be fore they left the States. Their horses sold for fabulous prices. American horses sold for a song.” Nell sat very still. That was the way he had chosen to tell her. Easier on him than to tell it seriously when they were alone together. Eas ier on her too. Rodney Scott bit his head with his fist "And he owes me-moneyI" he exclaimed. • "Owe you money!” scoffed Rob, "and how many others! But I’m serving you all notice. No bills go ing to be , paid!” Nell’s eyes widened and flew to Rob’s. Was it that bad? It couldn’t be— Surely, even if he had had to sacrifice the horses for the lowest prices, with two carloads, there would be,enough realized to pay their bills— Her eyes held a definite question. For the first time Rob met her gaze directly and his hard expression gave her a definite answer.. Her eyelids fell. It was true. A dis aster. But she didn't care. Money —what did it have to do with them? While the hilarious and senseless talk criss-crossed the table, Nell lis tened to the music.- An orchestra and Arthur Rubinstein were play- ,Jag a Rachmaninoff concerto. The broad, impassioned crescendos , en tered into her blood. So men could feel that way too. It had been com posed by a man. It was being played by men. It was the way she felt. Was it the way Rob felt top? At some time during the. evening someone announced that it was snowing, and the men went out and closed 'the windows of their cars. Gus kept bringing In logs for the fireplaces and bowls of glogg. It was-too late and the weather was too bad for anyone to think of driv ing back to Laramie that night Nell went. lnfo the downstairs bed-, 'room to be sure there was oil in the lamps. Striking a match and phuiiting the flickering wisp of flatae; ehe suddenly-'saw another band resting on the table before her. She could not mistake that hand— the hard power of it—the signifi cance— The flame went out The hand closed around hers, completely en- gulflng it Her hand was lifted and' the palm was /kissed, twice, then dropped.Trembling all over she found and struck another match. She was alone in the room. Ste lit the lamp and stood trying to pull herself together. She looked at the palm of her hand , as if she could see upon it the imprint of that violent caress which had been able to turn all the blood in her body into fire.She would stand there until her trembling stopped and her heart qui eted down. ...She looked at her hand again and PgaIn Sie laid it upon her cheek. She wondered if, when she returned to the living room, the mark of it could be seen reflected In her eyes, on her lipsi in her smile, in-ev erything she said, for the kiss con. tinued to bum in her. She could not get it out.In the morning the men were up early; digging cut their cars and put ting on chains, while the women got ^naktsst They left immediately after, and Rob paused to Mss’ her and' Say— this time without even a JCfonee into her eyes, '"Ftre got to go btfck. to with them—some business to attend to. fll be home soon.

WhilehetalkedaboutHewardand the school,- her mind was divided into several parts, listening, pursu ing its own course of reflection and analysis, and-observtogdosdy. It wasn’t only the hand that had made her sure again of his love. It was having found Gus mending the sleigh in the loft over the stable. And he confessed that Rob had brought it.from Denver in the truck and that it was to-be a present for her, and that he was to say nothing -about it. Not only the hand and the sleigh, but-the monkey tree too. Riding one afternoon, rite had: come upon a big monkey tree around which a trench had been dug. So! He had been doing things for her—thinking of her pleasure—all the time he was neglecting her and nearly killing her. with unfapppiness- and amdety. Sie almost burst out IauriQog- She almost said, How ex actly like you, Robl But Oh, how— how could all this misery and unrest be wiped- out between them! How. could they get really married add at peace together again? t v While she was observing his appearance and thinking about that Che told him of Ken’s trip tothe "Val ley of Ihe Eagles,” where he had found Thunderhead, and seen the AK blno and bis herd of mares.

It was not only his aloat manner; there was a deeper change In Rob. His face was hard, he kept hisown counsel, he hdd her at arm’s lengih —all that she could understand.

But. they spon learned one of life’s bitter IeSsoftst namely, that:: - i Prosperity Is Not Always a. Blessing (1:8-11). --The Hebrews were a peaceful, law-abiding people. They were Gpa1S. chosen pebple; and as- He -blesAed - them they - prospered, - and: thus to- nocently toey brpught upon them selves the hatred of. the suspicious Egyptians.

WHEM ja ck refuses his carrots do you angrily force him to eat them or threaten, "I’ll take you to the doctor un less you do?” A wise mother would substitute another food of equal value or gradually teach him to like carrots by feed ing them to him in small amounts. Young children have taste likes and dislikes just as adults do.

Stroud?—Will write few lines to letyou know that haven’t forgotten die people of Davie County. I think about you folks a lot, and I will' be glad to get back home. You bet I wiil, for we have a good place to live in, and we must try to make it a much better.place than what it is now. We can do itif we do our part as we should. I want to thank you for die pa per, for I have got it as well as could hope for, as it has so far to travel. - We all enjoy reading it, for it is a good, clean newspaper. That is why I like it. Now for some news about this country. I am in Seoul, the cap- itol of Korea. It could be a nice place if cleaned up, but the Ko rean people have been under the Japanese so Iong that they do not know just what to do for the best. Korea as a whole, has very fertile soil, and they have lots, of vege tables and grow lots of rice and wheat, and the country is very mountaneous, but I will have to admit it is a pretty place. The transportation is mosdy ox carts. They have-some automo biles but they use carbide for fuel and they, will go only about 35 miles per hour. I often wonder if us boys will feel at home any more after we get back, for things have changed so, and die people more than die country. We will have to do our best, and with the help of God we will get along some way. I want to wish- each and every one in and around Mocksville, a very Merry Christmas and a hap py New Year, and many more peaceful, prosperous and happy years on dm great earth diat God has given to ns to prepare for. a much nicer place to be with pur. Maker forevemore, and enjoy alt we have worked for and more. May I, for one, do more for my Maker, for he does so much for us that we do not thank him for. Let us all be more ready to do our Father’s will and notour own, for God gives us all we have. Let us think o f out brother as our self, and we might not do' some things we do. May we pray that God will forgive us of our many sins and give us strength and cou rage to go on with his, work, for most of us want to find a .way to work it out our way and forget God and his way, but there are no short cuts in' God’s plan of salvation. Let us try to go all the way and do His will as we go, for if we smile every one smiles witb us, but if we frown no one will' smile at us. May God bless every one, is my prayer. Sgt. Wm. A.

Lester took part in both the Atlanic and Pacific cam paigns. Since he sailed from: California in July, he has been to nearly all die Islands in die Pacr fic. He has been to Jsqpan twice during the .war, and has been to Siapan, Guan, Manilla, Adak Aluation Islands. 'Alaska, Hawaii, aiid other places. The U . S. S.

Plenty of Booze For Persbtent Users The good old Democratic party in North Carolina should pat it self on the for its' fine record in booze. The party, which has been In power since the days of Charley Brantlev Aycock and which its orat ors point to which so much pride during election campaigns for a magnificent record made in these years, mnest car v on its back the record of the 25 wet counties down own own responsibility not ohrs. A few davs ago Editor John A. Parks of The Raleigh Times, dis. cussed the high recoid made in li quor sales in these 25 eastern conn ties. He said tbe opponents of Demon Rum are again viewing with regret tbe official report of big ABC sales in 25 Tar Heelcoun ties for tbe month of November running to $2 ,891.829 .70. Tbe total is $680 ,573.15 above tbe war. in eastern North Carolina with re gard to Hqnor sales. Add - in tbe face of this record good ministets of tbe Gospel and Christian laymen, march' to the polls just as regular as every two years around and cast their ballots for members of this party to gn back to Raleigh to pre vent tbe state becomings dry egrin. How they can stifle their conscience thas is beyond us. but that is tbeir time sales for November 1944. and more than a million dollars increase over sales of the same months ago. But these officials figures do not give the full story about consump tion of beverage alcohol in Nortb To this total of nearly three million dollars spenvin legalized outlets in 35 “ wet” counties, there is another figure of not less than three times that amount representing unrecord ed.non legal sales by uncontrolled bootleggers in the ,7 5 other count ties of our state ' In other words, let’s admit tha. duriog the month of November 1945. a vast number of Tar Heels spent not less than ten million dol. Iars for bard liquors and possibly an equivalent amount of beers, wines, ales and other more less stimulating . beverages . containing alcohol. During the peacetime month of December total sales of intoxicants of ail types doubtless will greatly exceed the' large consumdtion for November.. By the end of the year, official' ABC sales doubless will run in excess of 25 million, and the business of bootleggers wilt be probably in excess of 75 million dollars. The Raleigh Times offers n» so lution for the liquor evil. It is an admitted evil, an evil of direct con sequences f o r those persistently consume alcohol and also for those who have to associate intimately with the heavy consumers. Solution of the problem has been sought by earnest-minded persons since Garden oi Eden days. Con. sumers of the staff that makes beg gars 'and fools of otherwise good citizens sometimes say the country ought to have prohibition. These are the same people whom tbe late Will Rogers referred to as '‘stag gering to the polls to vote dry.” While shouting their condemns, tion and refraining from visiting legal stores they become Iaw viola, tors as patrons of that violently vicious profession of bootlegging. Already, otir state school autho rities have taken a forward step in teaching our youngsters about the damaging effects of alcohol; Next move for the schools, for alt the communities and for our state as a Whole ts the inauguration of some form of effective adult' training that would, cause every! individual throughout the land -to detest And spurn potent liquors to the extent of their complete elimination — UnlonRepublican.

Inevery directionwe are faced witb the seeming inevitably of in creased government control, al. though we talk of less control We resemble a person looking back at something he wants as be walks a way from it. The answer to such a paradox must be that we want less government control badly, but not as'badly as we want other things. For example, while we dislike tbe drift toward autocratic govern ment, we Jisiikie tbe danger of in flation more, and resort to govern., ment control in the hone of avert, ing it. Again, while we dislike the same trend evident in compulsory arbitration of .labor disputes, we dislike tbe disputes more than we dislike to be governed by decree Until we teel that stepping the drift toward dictorial government is more important than anything else, the drift will not be stopped, neith er will inflation nor labor trouble. —Ex.

IIND BM SOM FINDING MEN FOB FEDERAL JOBS WASHINGTON.—Few people real ize it but President Truman spends a lot of tune these days trying to persuade people to take important federal appointments. An illustration was the tussle he had with astute -40-year-old Wilson Wyatt, mayor of Louisville, Ky., just appointed federal housing czar. Wyatt was first offered just about every job in the book. Postmaster General Hannegan tried to get him to serve on the important civil aero- ' nautics board, also to accept the job Jim McGranery wants to resign as assistant to the attorney general, one of the key spots in the justice department. The civil aeronautics board job really tempted Wyatt, and he asked for a few days to think it over. Next day he got a phone call. TRUMAN PLEADS. “This is the President calling,” said a voice at the other end of the phone. “Mr. President, I’ve been think ing,” Wyatt said, “and Pm afraid I’m going to have to turn down that civil aeronautics job.” “That’s swell,” replied the Presi dent. “I have a more important job for you. Please come back here right away,” Next day, Wyatt appeared at the White House, where Truman told him about the tough job of co ordinating housing. “I consider this housing situation the most important problem con fronting the country today,” ex plained the President. “If we don't solve this one, we’ll really be in trouble in a year and a half.” “But,- Mr. President,” said Wya tt “I’m afraid I can’t afford a federal job. I want to go back home and practice law. I need the money.” “I know you want to go back to your law practice,” Truman said. | “I know you want to make some money. But I don’t like being Presi dent either. However, I feel I have to do it, so I’m doing it.” Then, staring at Wyatt sharp ly, he said, “How can I do a good job if fellows tike yon aren’t willing to come np here and help me?” This made a deep impression on Wyatt. Next day he called at the White House for five minutes. Walk ing into the executive office, he said, “Mr. President, I’ve come in to sur render.” Ordinarily it is the work of a cabi net officer to tender a man a job. But now Truman finds he has to phone men personally and beg them to work for the government. The other day, Truman, who resents criticism of his numerous Missouri appointments, told one visitor: “People complain about all these Jackson county (Kansas City) appointments. But whenever I try to appoint someone else, they are too busy making money. At least the Jackson county boys are willing to take the jobs.” NOTE—Actually most top fed eral appointees can get jobs paying twice as much outside the government. Wyatt received only SSiOOO a year as mayor of Louisville, could be making $50,- 000 a year practicing law. IKE’S FIRST SENATE SESSION. Gen. Dwight Eisenhower went over big at his first meeting as chief of staff with members of -the senate military affairs committee. It was an off-the-record affair, for which the senators went across the Poto mac to Eisenhower’s office in the Pentagon building for luncheon. Sitting over coffee and French brandy which he had just brought back, Eisenhower spbke frankly about Soviet Russia and other mat ters, including co-operation with congress in running the army. Dis cussing his experiences as the chief U. S. representative on the Allied control commission in Germany he declared: “If the American people had a chance to study the Russians at close range, and vice versa, 1 am certain there would be a fine mutual understanding and respect between the two peo ples. I rubbed elbows with Mar shal Zhukov and others and have a high regard for them. We enjoyed splendid co-opera tion. I was always able to get along with them. “What most people don’t real ize is that the Russians are a good deal like us. They enjoy life tike we Americans, are futi of fun and have a fine sense of humor.” The general said he held no fears about future amicable relations be tween our own country and Soviet Russia. There will have to be some give-and-take in our relations, ho said, but eventually things will work out well. Regarding his own relations with congress, Eisenhower declared: “This is a people’s army and I intend to /un it like one, along dem ocratic lines and in close accord .with congress. I am especially anx ious to get along with the military affairs committees of both houses.” HflliiiBgKuijIgffltgigaIgmBeii ySnj5BB3HHMj C fiA m A m fi/C E \ / \ r # DREAMBOAT CREW HOLDS REUNION. . .

I T tHE NEW Golden Age of sport, •*■ following the latest world war, has had only, a few months in which to get underway. So far it has begun to outclass the so-called Gold en Age that followed the First World war in the way of attendance, gate receipts and increasing public inter est that in 1946 will crack , all for mer marks if we can settle a few problems, and someone doesn’t get careless with an atomic bomb. Bnt looking through the mists and fogs on ahead we still fail to see any sign that the perform ers can compare in crowd appeal with Babe Ruth, Jack Demp sey, Bobby Jones, Bill Tilden, Red G range, Rogers H ornsby, Tommy Hitchcock, Man o’ War, Waiter ,Hagen and a few others of that former period who happened to be blessed with that indefinable flair known as “color.” Most of the star actors we have left to open or carry on the 1946 program go back well before the last war started. In ,this list you will find Joe Louis, Billy Conn, Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan, Joe Di- Maggio, Hank Greenberg and others who had reached, or at least had come to their peak before Pearl Harbor. It is faintly possible, but highly improbable, that you and I will see another Ruth, Dempsey, Jones, Hitchcock or Tilden in action with as much combined skill and crowd appeal. Still Great Fighters No one can say yet just how much fighting ability Joe Louis and Billy Conn can bring to the ring next June. Louis has almost certain ly taken a number of steps over the hill. The odds are that Conn won’t be: as good as he was in his last attempt to reach the top. Both may have enough left to give a record- paying crowd an interesting show. We’ll know about this later on when ihe two get in better fighting shape. There is no other heavyweight in sight who compares with either, at his best. Someone may come along later on, but he is . still some dis tance away. , High-class heavy weights arrive at ’ wide intervals. The 4-Fs produced little and neither army nor navy has any sensations showing along the horizon. It might be suggested here that Army’s football team has taken the lead m the new Golden Age. It is better than any football team that followed the first war. Blanchard and Davis have been mentioned more than any two football players one can recall off hand.’ And both will be around next fall, with an other fine Army team that might easily set. a 'three-year record.What about baseball? Most of the stars will be found among such for mer stars as Joe DiMaggio, Hank Greenberg, Joe Gordon, Bobby Doerr, Marty Marion, Terry Moore, ; many members of the old Yankee and Cardinal- casts. But there is still hope for such young entries as Dave Ferriss. of the Red. Sox, Wakefield of the Tigers, Stirnweiss of the Yankees, Schoendeinst of the Cardinals and a few more who may develop rapidly. Old Stars Returning The majority of baseball eyes will ie focused on former stars who should, in the main, be ready for baseball again next spring. Al New- houser will again rate high .up after a brilliant two-year record. After the First World war, the, ill- fated White-31ack Sox of 1919 and the Giants and Yankees of the early ’20s were unusually strong. What about golf? So far, among the professionals, the top men are still Nelson, Hogan, Snead and Mc- Spaden, who have been around quite a spell. We have no record of any young new pros crashing the spot light at this moment. But the ama teur side with Haas, Stranahan, Middlecoff, Doering and Givan will be above the 1919-1920 average. This list will hardly include a Bobby Jones, but in medal play against the pick of the pros they have’been Outscoring any set of amateurs we can now recall. Professional golf may nave to wait a while before giving the game a young star as good as the veterans still left. Tennis? Not yet Amateur tennis has no chance to match the Big Bill Tilden and the Little Biil Johnston of 1919 and 1920, on through 1925. Some of the kids may start moving up, but hardly in time for any 1946 or 1947 championships. RevivcdofPolo Polo will be in for an even tougner touch. Most of the better polo ponies are now missing. Polo Went almost 100 per cent to war and little com petitive polo has been played in the last four years.; Polo will need a longer road for its comeback to the' days of Hitchcock, Milburo and oth ers who were around in . 1920 or 1921. But in spite of a-lapse in form and class from 25 years ago there will be far more competitors In the field and a greater kid crop coming on.

On the one hand, there is the Farm Bureau federation, the National Council of Farm' Co-opera tives and the National Grange who are backing the bill introduced by Con. John W. Flannagan 'Jr., (D., - Va.) which would separate the farm •credit agencies from the depart ment of agriculture and place them -under the jurisdiction of a bi-parti san board to be named by the Pres ident, of which'the secretary of agri culture would be an ex-officio member. On the other hand, the progressive National Farmers union, the secre tary of agriculture and a group of farm-minded congressmen are seek ing to retain the farm credit agent •cies within the department of agri culture under direct control of the secretary, but with the appointment of an advisory board and an assist ant secretary.-of agriculture, who would be the executive administra tor of the agencies. And aside from these two schools •of thought, there is another group headed by Rep. Harold Cooley, (D., N. C.) and . Reid F. Murray, (R., Wis.) who are seeking to set up. a entirely new corporation to be known as the Farmers’ Home corporation, which would operate upon a plan similar to the Federal Housing ad ministration insofar as farm loans are concerned and which would as sume many of the functions of the existing farm loan agencies, within the D. of Ai Straggle for Control .Thus, there is a three-way fight for control of the multi-billion-dol lar farm lending agencies, which since their inception in May, 1933, have made various types of farm loans through June 30, 1945, totaling $16,868,539,301 under tire head ^f the Farm Credit administration, and an additional billion dollars under the Farm. Security administration. The various lending agencies, which have been established under the Farm Credit administration governorship, include the Federal Imnd banks, the Production Credit corporation, the Fadaral Intermediate Credit banks, the Federal Farm Mortgage corporation, Uie 13 Banks for Co-operatives, Emergency Crop and Feed loans and the Itegional Agricultural Credit corporation, all of which, as of June 30, 1945 had loans outstanding amounting to $2,- 246,628,252. The National Council of Farm Co operatives and the Farm Bureau federation believe the; Farm Credit agencies'should be set up on an in dependent basis much the same as the Federal Reserve system, and should co-ordinate the different fields of farm credit loans to eliminate jgaps and duplications, operat ing within the framework of the na tional governmental policy, under ■the jurisdiction of a bi-partisan .board of six to seven members. Combine FSA WUh FCA Sec. of Agriculture Clinton P. An- . derson believes the Farm Securitir administration should be combined with the FCA, but by retaining all agencies within the" department of agriculture. He believes that farm loans are inter-related with all the other functions of the department, and that persons who have a voice in making credit available to farm ers should have a voice in the for mulation of other form programs to make a maximum contribution to -the. Welfare of the farmer. ... “Because of the prevailing view that agencies of the federal govern ment should be grouped under cabi net officers responsible directly to the president,” Mr. Anderson said, “I believe that for the long run, the question is not whether the farm credit and the Iarm security pro grams should be set up within an independent agency of the federal government. To me, the question rather. seems to be whether it is more appropriate for these agencies to be in the department of agricul ture, or in some other executive department of government. Since these are farmers' programs, it. seems obvious to me that they belong in that department which is engaged' . primarily with'; the problems-, of the farmers.” ' This writer believes that since ;Mr. Flannagan is chairman of the house agricultural committee and 'his measure has been reported out for passage, it is likely it will stand a good chance to pass the house in spite of the opposition of the agri cultural secretary. Whether, it will get by the senate, however, is an other question. The^ Farmers union believes, the. Flannagmi bill will definitely !,kill the FSA and' they are standing alongside the secretary in the fight to keep the credit agencies within the department of agriculture; M A A Y O H A R A W.M.U.

She has a huge circle of friends and acquaint ances. And two of my school friends, Adelaide Kinney and Eve lyn Sharp.”“You expect them to promote your business for you?”“Not that way!. Oh, Rob! You’re being simply horrible!” Nell sprang to her feet and stood by the mantel. “I simply want to get the idea,” said Rob icily. “You wanted to tell it to me, didn’t you? Go on—tell the rest. I’m particularly anxious to know, now that I realize you have passed on the fact of my failure to your relatives and friends in the east.” Nell was SOent for a while, then drew a long breath and said, “They Won’t have to promote my busi ness. TheMll be glad to give me lists of the right people to write to. And they’ll, let me use their names as reference. And Fve made out a letter, setting out the plan, descrip tions of this place and everything, add we’d have to have pictures, and all that can be mimeographed and sent to these lists of people. And we have the complete set-up. Prac tically no investment needed. Some guest cabins, yes—Gus and Tim and you could build them yourselves. And this is a lovely place, and there’s beautiful country to ride in and plenty of horsesl And I’m an. awfully good cook!” Nell said nothing more. In a mo ment Rob asked, “You say you’ve made out the letter?" “Yes." NeU picked it up from the table and handed it to him. But Rob put out a protesting hand. “No. I don’t want to see it, thank you. And I hope you haven’t set your heart on this. Have you?” "Set my heart on it?” said Nen. “Because I don’t like to deny you any of your wishes.” .“I know," said NeU hesitatingly. "You’re awfully nice about that. I wanted to thank you for—for the sleigh Gus is making—and the mon key tree. I do thank you ever so much.” Rob brushed this aside. “ It’s noth ing at all," he said indifferently. “No reason you should not have what you want."NeU wassUent. AfterawhUeshe said, “Rob, you know this isn’t just something I want—for the fun of I t- ”"Isn’t it? I thought maybe you were lonesome here with me alone.”. “You know it isn’t that at all. Rob, you aren’t even pretending to teU the truth about anything.” "Just a damned liar, am I?” That struck NeU as.funny and helped her recover her poise. “It’s because I told you that thing last summer—that the horses would nev er succeed and it made you mad at me. And you’ve never got over be- lngmad. And I was thinking after ward that it was awful of me, to have knocked everything so—the horses and your work—without hav ing something else to suggest. So I tried to find another plan. That’s a ll” . Rob began to knock the ashes out of his MPe- hadn’t meant to teU you this, Nell, but FU have to now. Otherwise you won’t be able to understand why I say no to your proposition. I am not going to con tinue to raise horses -as the main ,production'line of the ranch. They can be a ride line. Fm going to raise sheep.” “Sheep!” exclaimed NriL “But that requires an enormous invest mentl How could we possibly raise the money for that?” “It’s already raised. To begin with, although I did not make the twenty thousand dollars from my polo ponies which I might have made with good luck, ! ,did make nearly ten. That cleans me out of horses. With the exception of the young stuff coming up I’ll have noth ing more to sriL But I have put every dollar, of that, and more too— nil i cotiild borrow—into a band of ewes. I investigated the sheep mar ket thoroughly when I was In Lara mie. I was lucky in my buy I think. I found these up. at the Doughty ranch, near the Red Des ert. Fifteen hundred CorriedaIe “When are they coming on the ranch?” asked NdL “They’re already on,” said Rob. 4Tve got« .Mexicaii as a herder, and we drove them up from Lara mie two days ago. -We came in the baric way.” :“But what about Bellamy’s shegp^ They’re. Out on the baric range- there. J saw them y esterday “If you saw sheep oh this ranch yesterday you saw our own sheep. Bellamy left -with his’sheep weeks JfiO-”; .isr' '• _ Nell was about to ask 44What about the lease you gave Bellamy for an-, other year?” but thought better of it. She did say, 44You just said you hadn’t intended telling m e'this yet. Why not?” 44Because it may fail,” said Rob coldly. “It’,s a gamble, like all stock- raising, It looks good'now. The markets have been good for several, years. ,With these sheep I ought to net almost ten thousand in one year. That will'make a sizable deni in our debts. And if it continues, in a few years we’ll be out from under.*' For NeU,' the reversal of all she had been thinking and believing and planning'-Was - so sudden,, She frit flattened out. ,Why! then every thing’s. all right! Everything’s set tled and arranged! Our IUture provided for—and—and—everything! Presently she found breath to say it aloud, and Rob acquiesced. “Yes, everything’s arranged.” I4And there’s nothing to worry about.” ; : “Nothing.” The words faded into the heavy silence. NelTs eyes flickered to Rob. Everything aU right—nothing to worry about—and yet, between them, this cold distance and strangeness. What made it? Was it impossible— once the habits of love bad been broken—to mend them again? Even when'the cause of the breach had been corrected?. Rob-stared at the fire and said slowly, “I would have liked, it—if & 44Is this card phony or what?” tills experiment could .have been worked out first, so ..that, when I told you, I could have told you of a Tait accompli’—mOhey in the bank, debts paid, notes'met, a going con cern—not just, as it is now, one more hope, one more plan, one more good chunk of wishful think ing.4’ ',. Nril was leaning back In her arm chair and made no answer. 44But," continued Rob, 44Since you have made it so plain that it was not oriy the horses you doubted, it Was me too—and any ability I might have to care for you and provide a home for you—” he left the sentence unfinished.. The clock struck !eleven, and Paiily rose from where She, had been tiring near the fire and staged an elab orate stretch, then fan meowing-to NdL ' . ' -i. ! Nril lifted her automatically. 44Thafs true, isn’t it,'Nell?” asked Rob In a sudden direct-manner.' “What?” 44That you have lost confidence in me?” . " Nell did not answer immediately. Fhially she said, 44Rob-I didn’t think you would succeed with the horses. I told you that. But that’s not you personally-^” 44But it was, me, personally,” he Insisted. 44Yout didn’t think I was going to pull us through, did you?” 44You never took me into your confidence," said NelL "You. didn’t tell me you were going to try a different line. You kept saying it Was to be the horses or nothing.” 44I suppose that’s as good a way of answering as any,” said Rob slowly. A sudden passionate protest flung Nell to.her feet, Paidy hit the floor with a little grunt.. 44I don't see.why confidence means So much to you! I’ve never stopped' loving you—not the least.bih Siqipose some of the. confidence—was gene? That Would be only human—wouldn’t, really matter between us!” ' ■ Rob got to Iys feet and went about blowing the Mmps out, and finally answered, "Just that it—sort of— takes the heart out of a man.” ! . It was still’possible, thought Nell, as she walked'slowly upstairs. When pqople loved each other as. they had, nothing more would be needed than just one look—one word—her name, NdL There would-be no forgiving or explaining, just a sudden com ing together and all the discord flung behind them. . V , But Rob stood In a sort of darn in the center of the bedroom, as if he did not feel at home, there. One hand held his pipe' as he puffed at it, and he' stood watching, her as she moved about, turning the bed down, closing the Window,' faking her nightclothes from the Cteset and dropping them on the bed. ' She went to: his chiffonier mid took out a set of pajamas and hand ed toem to'him. “Here are some fresh pajamas for you." He took them absent-mindedly. Then, as Nell undid the belt of her skirt and stepped out of it, and peeled off her sweater, he said to he! hesitatingly, 44Fm awfully tired. I thlnlr i’ll sleep in the other room. Do you mind?” He looked at his wife. With just her slip on, she was seated in the Iow chair, one ankle crossed over the other knee to untie her shoe, her slender and beautiful legs shining in their long silk stock ings. Her tawny hair hung loose over the pearl-like ritin on her breasts. Her cheeks were, exquisite ly flushed! Without raising her head her dark blue eyes slid up underneath her brows and she answered easily, 44Not at all. I think It would be a very good idea. I shall probably sleep better myself.” Charley Sargent never missed the three weeks’ autumn race meet at Saginaw Falls in' Idaho, one of the few major or “recognized” tracks in the.Rocky Mountain-states; and had the same stables for his horses, and hotel accommodations for him self, year after year. Taking his horses down the Continental Divide from a high altitude to one several thousand feet lower gave them an advantage, and he liked the town which lay in the long valley between the Wauchichi and Shinumo ranges and had a season of pleasant autumn weather. Although the distance from Sar gent’s ranch to Saginaw Falls was not more than right hundred miles, he always shipped his horses by rail in charge of his trainer, Perry Gunston, rather than vanning them or taking them in an automobite trailer. This was because the high way made a rather precipitous de scent, winding down through sev eral mountain passes; and on the Divide, the' unpredictable storms sometimes made the road dangerous or even impassable for trucks. But he Mmself made the trip by motor. . There were always several events scheduled for two-year-olds, ' in which Sargent tried put his promis ing youngsters, and one race, on the test day of the meet!'with a ten- thousand-dollar purse, which at tracted an impressive entry. Itwas in this race that Thunderhead was to make his debut, and long before school closed Ken had familiarized himself with the past performances of ell winners of this' big event. Thunderhead had only: to run the two miles on the Saginaw Falls track as fast as he had run it at home to win.• • • For Ken to hang around his fa ther while the letter containing his report card was'being opened, or even to allow the depressing event ,to catch him in the same room, was so unusual that Rob McLaugh lin felt sure something was fishy. He glanced up at Ken who stood waiting beside his desk with hands driven deep into the pockets of his bluejeahs. 44Going to take your med icine and get it over with, are you?” he grinned, then looked at the boy’s face.again. That wasn’t Ken’s usu al report-card face—the face of one waiting tor a death sentence. Oa the contrary, the sensitive face was now flushed with anticipation, gleams of light played in the depths of his blue eyes and one smile after the other rippled across his lips. - “Read it, dad. Read it quick!” he exclaimed, and watched closely as . his father took the card and Studied it, item by item. Rob simply didn't believe it. He shook his head with bewilderment. “Is this card phony or what? Do you know what's in it, Ken?” 1 44IVhat? '4 demanded K en. confidently. “Ninety-two in Algebra. Ninety- four in Latin. Ninety-seven in Chem istry, and one hundred in English." Rob pointed at the card. 44How4A you get this?

It is in the minds' and on the lips of many in every hour of crisis. God is able to drifter. Moses found that out when in answer to his complaint that the Lord had done, nothing for his. suffering peo ple (Exod. 5:22), the Lord revealed Himself as the 'One who was not only able but ready to take , them out of their bondage. I." God’s Promise (6:6-8 ). Moses was. to remember that he was dealing with the Eternal One, unchangeable, and always-true to His word and able to make His will come to pass (v. 2, 3)/So often men in dealing with God think of Him in term's of their own weakness and failure: -What we need is to have, a GddIike .concep tion of God, not a manlike; idea of Him. God is the infinite and the Eternal One with whom we have no right to quarrel, and whose dealings with us are too high for us to, judge (Ps. 139:1-6). God’s covenant with His people was established (v. 4). He had heard their try (v. 5), and His de liverance was sure (v. 6). The only thing Moses had. to do was to wait, and see God work.That word "wait” is a little one. It seems to call for no effort, to be. easy of fulfillment; yet it seems to be the hardest thing for a human being to do. Christians who can speak and work for God when things are active and moving become querulous and despondent when they have to wait or when they are laid aside for a time. His promise is sure. That is not just a religious sentiment. It is a fact, and it is proved by history. n . God’s Plan (13 :17-19). There was a direct, easy road along the coast of the .!Mediter ranean up to Canaan, but; God with His pillar of cloud and fire did not lead in that way. ' ••/•; How strange that He should take them by a longer, more difficult way! NotatalL He knew the dan ger of the easy way. It was there that the warlike Philistoies would be lying in ambush. Such immedi ate conflict would discourage Israel and tempt them to return to the fieshpots of Egypt. SoHe toric them the other way. Note that God’s guidance for them was one of intelligent planning, not just impulse or chance. He knew what to do, and. He did .it, for their good. God has a plan, not only for. the nations, but also tor individuals, for your life and mine. Let us find His- will tor us, for it is good, accept able !andVperfoct'XRrin; 12:1,' 2). Note the honoring of the faith of Joseph in God’s promise (v. 19). The memory of his assurance was a blessing to his descendants, and they honored it and him. What will our descendants have to say about our faith in God? m . God’s Presence (13:20-22). Our God does not just send a plan or program to His people. He is al ways with them and is ready to go before, them. God’s plan is made known , to His people as they follow Him step by ,step. This means thatthere must be guidance, moment by moment, if His plan is to be worked out. He gives such guidance and it is only when His children fail to follow it that the pattern of life becomes confused. ' The field of divine guidance is one in which Christians .have widely divergent experiences. SOme know the sweet, unconfused daily experi ence of God’s hand upon them, caring for even the minor details (or are they minor?)'of life. Others have known the directive power of God in some Iifo crisis, but not in the ordinary affairs of life.': Many, and perhaps most, think Cd divine guid ance as a spiritual theory of which the preacher talks, but know noth ing of it in theft own lives.What makes this great difference?. Faith—or the lack of it. Those who' trust God accept and receive His blessed leadership moment by mo ment. 'It is as simple as that. Oth ers reach out and take it when, the pressure of life makes them cast themselves on God. Others simply, muddle along “doing their best,” which is not their best, for God is not to it. -The pillar of ctoud, which became luminous at night,, was ideal for the guidance of . IsraeL It provided shade from the hot sun by day, and it was a sure guide in the dark ness of the night. ’ - We who believe in Christ have an even better and more precious' evidence of God’s presence—the' Holy Spirit who indwells us. He. reveals God’s will to us, urging us. on, or restraining us as the'need may be. Are we- obedient to .His blessed promptings? Do we walk in the light of His perfect guid ance?

The board is charged with the responsibility of caring for matters relating to the interest of the puhlic health in this tri-county district and it replaces the former health boards in each of the three counties. The law requires that the board meet at least oncc each year in some city or county in this three coun ty health department.

(3) The farm covered by the applica tion shall be the only farm owned or operated by the farm operator on which any tobacco is produc ed; and (4) no kind of tobacco other than the kind for which ap plication for an allotment Is made will be grown on -such farm in 1946.

And can a seabee be eligible for state-side duty before he has achieved enough dis charge points? Mrs. W. C. G., Diggs, Va. A.—Yes, point ratings in the sea bees are the same as in other branches of the navy and they can be assigned for duty,, anywhere in continental U. S. at any time. Q.—How many points are re-, quired for a dischargee from the' coast guard? Also does a man in the coast guard get points when he gets married? A reader, Coleridge, Neb. A.—As of December 11, 1945, en listed men in the coast guard are required to have 40 points to be come eligible for discharge. To ob tain the dependency, points, he must have been married on or before August 15, -1945, and must have ' made a financial allotment to his wife. Q.—My grandson was drowned in Germany after serving over two years in the army. His insurance was made out to me, as his parents are dead and I raised him from the day he was born. However,, after sending in his insurance papers,, the government wrote they didn’t' give' it to grandmothers. Is there any thing I can do or anyone I could write to so I can get it? Mrs. C. E. H., Hinsdale,'Hi. A.—pie veterans administration informs us' that legally, grandpar ents are not included in the range of kinship to whom insurance is pay-, able, but in your case suggest that you legally establish ,your local: parental,- or that you have acted as parent to this boy and contact your nearest regional veterans adminis tration office. Your local selective, 'service board, Red Cross, or '-other service organization can aid you with your case. Q.—My boy has been in the South' Pacific 18 months. He is on Titian Island, TI. S. Naval base hospital No. 19, Navy, No. 3247. When wiU he be home on a furlough?—Mrs. T. B. G., Vemonia, Oregon. A.—You do not give sufficient in formation concerning your son’s (time in service to venture an an swer. You should give his age and complete service record. I Q.—Does the period a serviceman ‘ enlists for mean anything or not? ,Our son became 18 years of age. jlast January 29. He enlisted in jthe navy for the duration of Ihe war ,and six months after, now he has ;been sent to Japan and that surely jdoes not look as if he is to be re leased soon. I am particularly con cerned because he has another year in high school. Some boys in his class who entered service last year are' back in school now. How can that; be for one and hot for all? Isn’t' the War over' since August? Mother, Sunbury, Pa. A--You are right ; it does not look as though your son will be home soon. The war is not over, and will not be over until so declared by the President or congress. No peace treaty has been signed. Ctafy the' surrender of Japan and Germany has been concluded. Unless he is released on- points before, your son. is, eligible for service for six mbnths after formal! declaration Of end of ’the war is made. I Q.—Will a veteran who draws the $20 a week until he draws ten weeks (ever get a bonus? If a veteran .who is lOOjper cent disabled should get a light' jbb would it cut his pen sion down? Mrs. M. K., Carrolton, ' Ga. A--Beneffts received under the G.I. bill of rights will be deducted from any future bonus received by the veteran. This does hot apply, {however, to disability payments. If a 100 per cent disabled veteran is 'able to hold a light job, it will not icut his pension,, since it does not al- jter his disability, rating.

The cake of fat which forms on top should not be removed until all the stock has been used. Then it can be rendered and used for frying or for the fat salvage. ’ A good batch of soup stock can- be used for several days. Tho first part can be cooked with veg-. etables; the second batch with noodles or rice; and the third time herbs or dumplings may be added. To make clear soup, the white of I egg may be mixed with I teaspoon of cold water and boiled in’th'e soup for 2 minutes. The crushed egg shell may also be used before boiling, and removed by straining through a cheese cloth. Beat, egg whites with salt until stiff .enough to hold up in peaks.,but hot ; idry.

Waiter E. heobour. HMdenite. N. C. We are entering another New Year— >946 Hay God Inspire otir hearts to go forward Ior Him with greater desires and determinations than ever, before In IHe if possible. We should not be discouraged he. cause of the strife, batted and di vision that exists among men and nations. This should only cause as to love God more, and to love His people better, realizing that our eternal redemption draws nigh. We ought to look up, have greater faith i nGod than ever, because we see His Word- being fulfilled so plainly, though the outlook from the standpoint of the world and tbe devil is very derk. However, we ase glad to know that God still sits upon His eternal throne and is the supreme Ruler of tha universe. He has never turned it oyer to the devil, and never, never wilt. , Regardless of what the New Year holds in store for us, we may be assured that God will ' be with us as Hts children. His dIscioles and servants. T ests- aud eevere trials may come; awful temptations may befall u;. and the devil may lurk along our pathway to deceivo to allure us from our Saviour and His blessed fold, but if we will pray much, live according to the BibJe, keep faitb in God- .aud do Hts Holy will, we sbali He victor ious over all hvil and opposing fot- ces, Thisisa fact that is worth rejoicing over deep down in our hearts, souls and spirits.... We .can go forth with' a conqueror's tread as we walk in the fpotprints of fesus, which al*avs lead along the Narrow Way .pward' and -heaven ward, . It is pastures much of- the time, but sometimes the pathway Iea ls through verv rough and rug ged places where there are stumb ting stones, thorns, briars and thistles to prick us. so to apeak, thrust upon us and at us by tbe enemy of our souls; but Jesus will lead us safely along, the rugged way too. We. must,.trust Him at all times, in alt places and under all circumstances. ! - If our Lord permits us to liv* through 1946 we should make it 8 year of much prayer. Never have, we seen a time when we should pray more. As the coining of our Lord draws nigh, and as tbe pow ers of darkness gather more den sely over the temh, and as tht spirit of the antichrist comes iuto the hearts of the people more strongly, and as tbe forces ot sin and wickedness seem more detei- mined «to - put down Christianity and the church of the living God, we should watch and pray as never before, and keep simple,, childlike faith In our Savior. He isouronly hope. We have nothing to look to s fety, security. IeaJership 1 guid ance and protection but Him. We should draw veary near unto- Him and realize that He draws nigh unto us. We should live'in. His holv will every day and.e veryhour. Then we should have such inter est in tbe li ve1: and souls of our fel - Iowmeu until we desire their eter. nal salvation above everything else.

I^d pottm at tbu office Labor Triable Serions The demand of organised labor In the key industries of America create a serious threat to demo cracy. Notsom any years ago capital had the tipper hand and abused its privileges through sweat shops; child labor, low wages, 55-hour weeks and keeping workers con tinually in fear of losingdieir jobs. Now labor has die country by the tail With a down hill drag, and we mean DOWN HILL. Just as the treatment of employ es by employers 20 years ago was unjust and unreasonable, the ac tions of organized lobor now are unjust and unreasonable. And die government has n<j de finite policy for handling the situa tion. The executive and legislative branches of the government do not seriously try to cope with the problem because of political fear. . ~ Ultimately, the actions on die part of labor leaders now will be written in history as “stupid.” La bor which has made great gains in die past decade, knows not where to halt its demands. Organized labor has a bad case of “swellhead” because of successes already at tained. Now organized labor has be come a serious, threat to demo cracy because it represents minor ity rule. Labor indirecdy is in control-by using die weapon of political fear. But when there is an action there always follows a reaction. W hoi die American public suf fers becaure of inflation brought on by labor, organized labor stands to lose'the gains already made and die pendulum may swing disastrously in the other di rection; moving from one extreme .to the other.—Wilkes Patriot.

Girls, Don’t Read Hns Worthy opponent's, Iadlies and gentlemen I ask vou to giyr me your attention for a few minutes as I try to prove to-you that it is more expensive to clothe a girl than it is a boy. Girls are so different from boys They have to have a new outfit for Christmas, another for- Valentine, a new dress for Haster and^a com plete spring outfit. When the re vivals begin during the summer months tbe girls at once start anew dress revival They all try to have a new dress revival.' They all . try to have a new dress for tbe frst Snndav and never, want to wear the same one two nights in sucees sion. When picnic time comes they all have to have a new picnic dress. When picnic time comes they all have to have a new picnic dress. When the first cool breezes be. gin to come in the fall they have to have a new fall suit and soon they get a new winter coat. Hats and other bead gears are bought every few davs by these expensive girls. Ladies and gentlemen, when I think of girls, I get scared Tbev are so expensive. WhelU a boy mar ries one. be bad better have plenty money tor it is a fact that, he will soon have to buy a dress shop, a bat store, a shoe store and will bave to buy a paint store. Yes, bovs even bave to buy a powder plant if he gets along in peace with these expensive girls Boys always wear tbe same suit, hat and shoes through tbe wbole vear. We don’t spend all our time trying to doll up and idle away onr time. We know that fine feathers don’t make fine birds. Girls don’t know that! We boys study woik. The girls study dressing and having a big time. And now you know tbe boys are not as expensive^ as these sweet girls. „ ■ • - A WANDERING G I.

On the Job Training Veterans’ administration officials say there is a decided trend among veterans who are taking advantage of the provisions of the educational features of the G.I. bill to get away from college and university study in favor of on-the-job training for various trades. This trend was also noticeable following World War I. As of December I there were 103,526 veterans taking on-the-job training or enrolled in colleges and universities and officials point out that if the heavy, enrollment con tinues, many schools will be swamped with applications by the time the fall terms open in 1946. Disabled veterans are also taking advantage of Public Law No. 16 and as of December I there were 35,353 in training — 24,126 in schools and 11,227 ort-the-job trainees. The veterans' administration has also announced that there are more than 87,000 veterans, an all-time peak, receiving hospital -treatment and domiciliary care and with a tremendous increase hospital facili ties are taxed to capacity. Questions and Answers Q.—HIy husband, who has been In the army for 28 months, who spent 19 months in France and is now in Japan, should be eligible for a dis charge. Will he get one soon?

A.—Your husband is stationed in Kure, Japan, as of December 26, and the war department has no word on when his company, will be moved home. Q.—How many points will dis charge a navy enlisted man and how are points counted for dependents? —Navy wife, Thayer, Mo. A.—The navy allows 10 points for dependency, regardless of the num ber of children. On January I, 1946, the navy point score dropped to 36 points for enlisted men and 43 for officers. The navy announced fur ther one point cuts to go into effect January 15 and February 2. Q'.—My husband win have been fa the army three years the 26th •f -.December.

Packaged Mixes, Sugar, Syrup Aid Sweet Tooth Even new brides will find it simple to make creamy-smooth chocolate pie with the directions given in the column. Whipped cream or meringue may be used as a topping for this chocolate delight. Culinary Strategy If you’re one of those cooks who likes to. have toothsome dishes to set on the table, but hates to fuss with too many of the frills, then there’s no time like the present to try out some of the ready-mixed foods. New brides, and by those I mean not only the recently wed, but those who have been' m a rrie d fo r awhile, but are just now cooking for a brand new husband, will find plenty of help, on grocery shelves. A twist of the wrist at home, an eye to attractive decoration, along with an ability to follow instruc tions will yield rich rewards. It used to be that a pie was diffi cult to tackle, but not with all the sugar-saving mixes we now have on hand. You can use one of the packaged preparations for the filling, or sweetened condensed milk which is now back on the market. The pie shell, too, may be made of a ready-prepared mix, or it can be tossed together from one of the good pie crust recipes which you have on hand. In a cream pie, the crust is baked ahead of time and allowed to cool before filling. Magic Chocolate Pie. 2 squares unsweetened chocolate cups (I can) sweetened con densed milk . H cup water Baked pie shell (8-inch) Melt chocolate in top of double boiler. Add sweetened condensed milk, stirring over boiling water about five minutes or until mixture is thickened. Add the water and mix until thoroughly blended. Pour into baked pie shell and garnish with whipped cream, if desired. Chill before serving. *Butterscotch Tarts. Make tart shells either in muffin tins or small pie plates. Prepare butterscotch filling according to di rections on packaged mix, adding a beaten egg yolk and melted butter if extra richness is desired. Fill cooled pastiy shells and top -with meringue made by beating an egg* white and blending in two, table spoons of granulated sugar. Swirl on top of tarts arid brown under broiler for two to three minutes.For those of yOu who are anxious about making desserts, there’s good news in the ap pearance of an extra-sweet com sy ru p on' th e m arket. It con tains a higher amount of dex trose than the ordinary corn syrup, and while it is not only more nutritious, it is also 50 per cent sweeter than the standard corn syrup. Here are two recipes which you will enjoy using with extra-sweet com syrup: Refrigerator Cookies..

Dry ingredients for biscuits, muffins and pastry can be mixed in advance and the liquids added just before using. Chilling makes most of these mixes even better.

We ask all good Republicans to read and meditate: “The Republicans, when they were in Washington . . . didn’t care a cent if tobacco went down , to 12 cents a pound . . . During the Harding, Coolidge and Hoover days all you could do was suffer and curse the hard times. The only reason I can see for a Repub lican to continue to vote the Re publican ticket is to worry the Democrats who want him to go the right way.” Tack this article on your desk for future reference.

In speaking of our physicians we wish to present a boquet of roses to another loral physician, Dr. S. A. Harding, who has been practicing his profession here for many years. Dr. Harding wasn’t called into the service, as he, like the editor, isn’t as young as he once was. He was the only phy sician left in a town of about 2 ,- OOO population, to look after the sick, the suffering, the injured and dying. It is needless to say that he was one of the busiest and most overworked men in our town-working not only from ear ly mom to dewey eve, but far in to the night, and many times be ing on the job ministering to suf fering humanity 24 hours a . day. ItJs fortunate that no serious epi demics visited Mocksville during die past three years, with only Dr, Harding to look after the town. We feel that he deserves much praise for the manner in which he looked after the sick and suffering. Ourbest bow, Dr. Harding, and here’s hoping your life will be spared for many years, and that your pathway will be made lighter since uwe have our two former physicians back to help carry on the work; that you did so faithfully during their long absence. Davie County, with a popula tion of 15,000, had but three phy sicians, Dr. S. A. Harding, of this city; Dr. Garland Greene, of Fork, and Dr. Baxter Byerly. of Coolee- mce, to carry on during die emer gency. These gentlemen deserve much praise for ,the good, work they.did. Bad Auto Wreck A 1937 Ford auto, owned -by Ardius Revel, colored and driven by Cpl. Odis Revel, colored, smashed into die side of the An- building on North Main street last Tuesday afternoon shortly before four o’dock. The building occupied by Stratford Jewelry store, was badly damaged, and the car was in about as bad condition. In the car, besides the driver,- were Frankie Lyons and Charlie Naylor, colored. Naylor received a fractured skull and was carried to a Winston-Salem' hos- pital. The other two men re ceived cuts and bruises and were given first aid at Mocksville Hos pital.. Cpl. Revel was lodged in jail charged with damage to pro perty and reckless driving without a license. It is not known how much damage was sustained by die jewelry store stock. The building was badly damaged and it will take some time to put in a new front. The car was said to have been go ing at a high rate of speed when it left Avon street and ran down the side-walk into the building. It is fortunate that there was no oiie in the path of die car when it made its wild dash.

C. \ t h e d a v ie R eco rd 5-Mo c k sv ille, N. c U MISSOURI SNOW SHOVELERS WASHINGTON. — The problem ol snow removal from the sidewalks .around the “Summer White House" created something of a problem just before President Truman paid bis Christmas visit to Independence, Mo. At first nothing was done about the snow around the Truman mansion. Secret service agents guard ing the house said it was their job to guard, not to shovel. Finally James T. Hopkins, aged 59, got out his horse~ Dick, aged five, and with a home-made snow plow cleared the snow from the North Delaware street side of the Truman home. But he didn’t have time to clear the West Van Horn road side because he had to clear the walks used by children. One day before Mrs. Truman ar rived, however, George Dodsworth, president of the Independence chamber of commerce, called out the chamber’s Sb: new directors. He told them that the snow around the “Summer White House” would have to be cleared and their initi ation into the chamber would be to do the job. They did a good job. The walks around the Truman home were thoroughly shoveled. They did not, however, tackle the drive in the rear of the house. So next morning, two employees from the highway department arrived to clear the driveway. They had shov eled for about 20 minutes when the first lady appeared on the back porch. “You are shoveling gravel on the grass,” admonished Mrs. Truman, always a meticulous housekeeper. There were some explanations that they had been sent by the high way department to clear the snow. “I don’t care who sent you,” re plied Mrs. Truman. “I want you to quit.” Which is.exactly what they did. Mrs. Truman left instructions with a secret service agent not to let anyone scoop snow from the drive. And no one has. THE OTHER LaFOLLETlT;. When the name LaFollette is men tioned in Washington, most people think of the senator from Wis consin, who succeeded his crusading bull-moose father. But another La- Follette, from Indiana, not Wisconsin, who sits in the house of repre sentatives, not the senate, is also attracting more and more attention. Empty chairs fill up quickly when Rep. Charles LaFollette takes the floor for a speech. Colleagues may sometimes disagree with the two- fisted Indiana Republican, but they agree that what he says usually is interesting and never fails to pack a wallop. . In fact, one of his recent speeches packed such a wallop that conserva tive colleagues on the Republican side almost swooned. For LaFol- lette attacked that super-sacred cow, states’ rights, and before he was through had virtually de-homed the animal. “There are no such things as states’” rights,” declared the red-headed Hoosier. “There are rights of citizens who live with in a state. The man who speaks of state sovereignty speaks the language of totalitarianism. There is only individual sover eignty.” Colleagues on both sides of the aisle listened in amazed silence. Only congressmen to answer were two Republicans: Jensen of Iowa and Bates of Massachusetts. Signifi cantly, no whimpers came from southern Democrats. “Did not the sovereignty of the states exist long before th'e fed eral government was established?” asked Bates. “Xps, bnt man existed long before the state of Massachu setts,” shot back LaFollette. “The state of Massachusetts did not create its citizens and does not own them. The citizens own the state. In the continental con gress and the convention which created the constitution . . . the issue was not states’ rights. “The issue was, ‘Shall the people determine that they can be better served by a (federal) government with power, over the state.’ That is the constitutional answer, and it is the only . answer that parallels with any idea , of the-innate dignity and honor of mankind. From that premise I do not yield, nor shall I ever yield, God giving me the strength to retain my intellectu al, moral' and spiritual integ rity.” CAPITAL CHAFF. Since publication of General Mar shall’s letter to Governor Dewey telling how we were cracking Japa nese and German codes, every ma jor government has been changing its codes'almost daily.

COAST GUARD’S BEST . . . Select ed as one of U. Si coast guard’s best photographs of lfi45 In this one of two G.Ls retaining from foreign soU. or C f i A m m M C E , * Grantland Blce T HE Pacific coast baseball league was recently turned down in a major league bid. It is quite possiblethat the West coast stretch isn’t entirely major territory as far as all its cities or teams are concerned. This also applies to both the American' and • National league, Which in many places cany a strong minor league. touch, as everyone connected with baseball knows. But the main point is that in a general sporting way the Pacific coast in many spots has more, of a big league touch than the East, Midwest or the. South. And the argument isn’t even close. The only .way to ■ prove this point is through facts and figures, not by words that are alw ays unim portant. For a few ex am ples — after a bad football year where both South ern California and UCLA were beaten two or three times, they outdrew Army and Navy. The we'stem record count was 103,000 and this isn’t the first time 100,000 has been beaten on the West coast. Under the same conditions Southern California and UCLA in the East, Midwest or South would have drawn from 30,000 to 40,000 at the limit. Now we coine to racing, which in terests more millions than most people know—more than almost any other sport or business or whatever you care to call it. Richest Purses in West Those who follow racing know the purses offered in New York, Chicago, Maryland, Florida, New Or leans and Kentucky, all among the leading racing states, rarely top $50,000. Here are some of the purses to be offered at Santa Anita, Calif.; One hundred-thousand dollar Santa Anita handicap—March 9. Richest all-age' race:' One hundred thousand dollar Santa Anita Derby—February 23. Tops for the three-year-olds. Fifty thousand dollars for the Santa Catalina, San Pasqual, Santa Margarita, San Antonio and San Juan Capistrano. Five in all eight $25,000 stakes. A stake total of $650,000 for the all-time average of $43,333 per stake. No purse is under $3,000. Can the East, South or Midwest approach these figures? You know what the answer is.' No. New Baseball Territory . AU this is further proof that the two lopsided big leagues, which need unlimited night baseball for many teams to. keep going, can no longer overlook a new country in the way of population and general sporting interest. Los Angeles and San Fran cisco are far ahead of most of the big league cities in the matter of population and enthusiasm for sports. - It is generally realized by those who know their sport that St. Louis, Boston and Philadelphia are one major - league - club towns. Cin cinnati, Washington and a few others don’t belong in the same class with Los Angeles and San Francisco on the sporting side. The fact is that California and Florida are our two best climate states, unless you happen to like colder weather. It .is all a question of facts, fig ures and fair play. California merely happens to be the best foot ball state, tee best racing state, the best track-and-field State In the country. Neither New Xork nor Chi cago could even approach the Olym pic games of 1932 which Los An geles held. Both cities know this. One trouble Is that too many peo- ply shy away from facts and truth. Especially those interested only on tee side of the dollar. For one example, New York has neither the football nor racing facili ties to be ranked in the same class with Los Angeles, unless you enjoy looking at football games back of a thick pillar or being trampled under- - foot at a race track. In the course of too’ many years, your correspond ent has worked in the border states, the deep-South, the East, tee Mid west, the Far West and the South west. Pride of section is a 'good thing, but the United States is much more important. There was a time when the At lantic and Pacific, coasts .were many days apart. Nqw they are only a few hours apart. This also goes for the South and ,the North. The 'Gulf and tee Great Lakes are now only a hop, step and jump away. But up to date the Far West has taken all the worst of it from big league baseball and big league pro football. The South’s major problem has been spectator capacity where only the New Orleans stadium can handle 70,000 people. And no South ern city Ites a .population around tbe million mark.: This, in time, will be taken care of. Certainly the South's contribution to every form of sport has been enormous, whether this be baseball, football, ,golf or other sports. ThO South, plus California, has the -jump In those'games, with - practically 12 ,months of play. AHaTHStt \ ASK ms tt \ A General Quiz The Question* - 1. What was the original use of the louvre? _2.

CHAPTER XX Bob’s big white teeth -gleamed in bis dark face. He looked very pleased. But continuing to study the boy’s expression he suddenly, had a recurrence of his first convic tion. There was something fishy. “TeD me, Ken,” he said, “is this absolutely on the level? You really did it? It’s bona fide?”' “Sure I did it, dad,” said Ken, his jubilance fading at the realiza tion that a bad reputation is hard to live down.“When did you start working for this phenomenal report card?” “Last fall. When- school start ed.” “And you- kept it up all year?” Ken nodded.“Just so you might get permission from me to stay out of school next fall when Thunderhead goes to the post?” “Yes sir.** “Put’ it there, son! I’m proud of you!”Ken was'dazed. His small bone less hand was lost in his.father’s clasp and shaken bard. He was still trying to explain. / “The thing is, dad, of course ITl make up all the lessons I lose while I’m out of school. But if I had just asked you, and told you that Pd do that, you wouldn’t have be lieved I could do it.” , “And you can say that again, boy!”“So I 'had to prove it to you—, before I asked you.” “You’ve proved it.” _ “Dad! Do youVmean I can?” “I mean just that. This brilliant mind of yours seems to work in re verse. Give you horses so that ydu have no time for lessons and even have to stay out of school and you bust yourself wide open and carry the rag off the bush!”“Dad—there’s something more!” " “Ah! Now it’s coming!” Rob’s face took on its sardonic expression'. “Two things, dad.” “Well—shoot!” “You said last year, when Thun- derhead didn’t get gelded with the other two-year-olds, that he could go HU this year. Does—does he have to be gelded? Wouldn’t you just—skip it—dad? Because he may win, you see—And there’s a chance that the gelding might hurt him or kill him and anyway if he should be a winner on the race track we’d want to sell his services as a stallion, wouldn’t we? And anyway—” “We won’t geld him,” said Rob suddenly.This quick victory was another shock to Ken. Rohraisedthereport card. “You’U find aU your life long, son, that fine performance wiU get things for you that nothing else wiU.”“Besides, Thunderhead hasn’t reaUy made any trouble, has he?”. It was bard for Ken to get his mind off his horse.1 “He hasn’t tried to fight Banner or get any mares, or—wen, not anything like that”ttThunderhead hasn’t had a chance to raise heU yet. It’s been a godsend that we could leave Touch And Go with him until early this spring when die came in heat for the first time. That kept him happy. Kept him away from the other mares and delayed the beginning of what you might caU his sex life. Be sides, hejs been trained and worked pretty .consistently. Youcan train an animal, you know, for the kind of life he is to Uve. We’ve kept him away from the real life of a stallion. But that won’t last forever. The time wiU come. One day his ears wUl pop, and he’U suddenly thump himself on'the chest and exclaim, I’m a man!” Ken laughed. “I hope if won’t be on the race track.” “Sex doesn’t enter much into the life of race horses. StaUions and mares rai8 6 together without any dis turbances of that sort” “I know.” ttWeU now- — what’s the other thing? Might as weU get it over with.” . Ken’s face flushed a little. “Re member what you said once, dad? That I cost you money every time I turnaround?’” “I remember!” . ttWeU-What about the money the race is going to cost?-The entrance fee and aU that?” “I see.” Rob leaned back quietly and became very thoughtful, rub bing bis hand through his hair* “You’re a lot richer now than you used to be, aren’t you, dad?” - ttWhereM you get that idea?” ttWeU-Ihe sheep-” ttThe sheep have got me so deep In debt Thunderhead wiU have to Win races to puU me out!” ttOh, dad! Are you kind of count ing on him?” Kan’s face glowed with pride. “I’m hoping,” said Rob grimly. “Pve put a lot of work on that horse myself, remember,' and .I know he’s got it in him. - But he’s an ugly beggar. This summer wiU tell the tale.” “Of course .you know, dad,” said Ken magnanimously, “ anything Thunderhead wiiis will be yours and Mother’s.” “WUl it? No. I don’t think so. We’d want it to be yours. Then you can pay for aU your expenses and your schooling and we’ll come out ahead anyway!” ltBiit some of it would have to be yours!"ttAU right. We’U incorporate. Mc Laughlin and Son’.

Rob leaied back- in his chair. ttWeM beter count this up now'afld know what we’re up against.” Ken called on his fortitude and stood waiting. | ■ ■“Yoti’re- going with Mr. Sargent so the trip, won’t cost you anything, but you’ll be ih Saginaw Falls for thlBB WUBks**** “I’ll sleep'in the stall with Thun- derhead,” put in Ken qitickly, “Lots of owners do that if they haven’t got much dough.” ■/ “But I suppose you’U have to eat! Sargent will send the colt with his horses by raU and keep him in his stables ih charge of bis trainer, so there’U be no shipping or stable expenses. You’re in luck there— but Thunderhead’s got to eat too. So there’U be his feed bill and the' jockey fee—” “That’s ten dollars if he .just rides, and twenty-five if he wins,” interpolated Ken, “and dad, please don’t say jockey. People that know, caU them riders.”Rob ignored this. “And the en trance fee,” he finished, “Altogeth er quite a Mt o t money.” - He looked out the window again, ahd in spite , of fortitude, Ken be gan to feel wet in his armpits and around his waist. “But I’ll stake you to the en trance fee for the one big race and all the expenses for yourself and Thunderhead.” ttYou wiU, dad? Gee! Oh, Gosh!” ttHowlU I be repaid it he doesn’t win anything?” • ’ Ken’s Ups sobered in a line of determination and courage. “I’U work very hard all summer.” - “You’U do that anyway,” said Rob grimly. tTve never given you the idea you could; spend the summer sitting on your fanny, have I? Or just monkeying around your horse either.” ttAnd besides,” said Ken,-“there’s another way I could make money enough to pay you back everything iand more too.” “This brilliant mind of yours is getting me dizzy, -Ken. HOw can you make several hundred dollars?” “Well—you told me once it costs yoi^ three hundred dollars to'put me through a year of school. See?” He smiled brilliantly at. his father. “I don’t see. I haven’t got a brilliant mind.” v “I — Just simply — won’t go to sUhoOL I : could, study outside and itake the exams—maybe— Anyway, I’d learn just as much and my schooling wouldn’t ..cost you any thing.” "And Pd spend the money financ ing you traveling around with your race horse, I suppose?” Ken hadn’t quite the courage to say yes, but he made a graceful gesture of assent and dashed away.Thunderhead’s career was taken seriously by everyone on the ranch that summer, and no one rode him but’ his trainer, young Ken Mc Laughlin, who tipped the scale at ninety-six pounds, 'During the winter just past when the staUion had been kept in, given a Uberal daily ration of oats and bay and exercise and braining by Rob McLaughlin, he had achieved a superb development. He was as tall as the Percheron—sixteen hands— and would be even taUer when he had his full growth. No longer could- it be said of him that he was un gainly or badly proportioned. AU; his parts had grown together. His; legs were long and powerfully mus cled, Ms neck massive and'arched,, Ms coat a pure dazzling wMte and; shining with the glossiness of a stal-; lion’s skin. Strength, power and, wilfulness were still his outstanding; characteristics. ! He was now shod, and Ken was out with him every day before breakfast, running him on the track.' He still fought Ken, he still bucked, but when Ken complained of the horse’s dislike of him, his father, said, “You’ve got that wrong* sonj If that horse really hated you he’d, never -let you get near Mm. He doesn’t hate you. He fights you be cause he tikes to. He enjoys it.; You’re his trainer. You’ve got to make Mm do what he doesn't want to do and he’s a fighting devil so he fights you back. But PU bet, when he’s waiting up there in the morn ings for you to come and give him his work-out, he’d feel pretty.bad if you didn’t show up.”Touch And Go was still the pace maker for her. big brother, and Rob McLaughlin said, “When I see that filly run, damned if I don’t think she’s the one that’s going to be the racer.”Touch And Go was a regular, beauty. Tall and daintily made, with a long reaching neck, straight slim legs, little feet that would fit in a cup, and a playful Mgh spirit that kept her always acting up, always ddncing and going sideways. Her ruddy Mde was glorious in the sun, and the blond tail and mane gave her a de luxe, made-to-order, look. To Rob McLaughlin her perfect conformation , was a justification M his theories of line breeding, and he sometimes studied the racing sheet, making a note of what events were scheduled for two-year-olds. ttWe might run her too,” he said, “put her in the baby class.” The summer passed very slowly for Ken, because it was all a tense waiting for the racing season, and a tense watching of Thunderhead. Besides, it was fell of excitement- just one thing after the other. The first excitement was when he got home and found out what was going to happen to his mother. It was hard for Ken to keep his mind from confesion when he thought about that. Sie had wanted it.' Hadn’t she said at dinner that night, “I want a monkey tree. I want a sleigh all covered with bells, and I want a little girl,” and of course it was right for Ms mother to have what she wanted. But it was hard to take. He had argued with her about 1S tBut mother, you’ve got us! How-, ard and me. Aren’t we enough?” “No. f-want a little girl.” ttWant her much, mother?” ttWantber lots, dear. Remember how hard you wanted Flicka?” ttIt might be. a boy,” said Ken- gloomily, and he added, ttBesides, doesn’t it hurt awfully?”Nell was busy putting the laundry away. She counted the- piles of sheets she was stacking in the linen closet. . ,ttDoesnJt it, mother?” insisted Ken. “Doc Hicks might have to—” ttKen! This is going to be a baby! And Doc EQcks won’t have any thing to do with it!” / “Oh, sure—I know that—” . “And as for its hurting—Who caret about that?” She had finished stack ing and her voice was very gay* “You don’t get anything for noth ing, dear.” “No.” His father had told him plenty about th at. - “And didn’t you—” her hand was lightly on his head, arranging his soft brown hair so that it did not fall over Ms forehead, “didn’t you sit all night in the cold water holding Flicka—justbecause you loved her and wanted her so'much?" Ste was through with the linen and went quickly back to the kitchen. Ken watched her, not an swering her out loud but thinking to himself that it was different. How: could you love something you hadn’t ever seen and be willing, in ad vance, to suffer for. it? With Flicka, - he had (known and loved her and cared for her for months. He had to struggle against a feel; ing of dread when he saw bis father watching his mother all the time Witit such anxiety. It was a won der he would even let her stack the Llinen.

A PEOPLE AT WORSHIP LESSON TEXT—Exodus, 28:1; 38:4-9. 30- 29. GOLDEN TEXT—Thon salt worship the Lord thy Gqd, ’and Him only sbalt thou serve—Matthew 4:10. ' ' A nation wMch knows God must have a . place and a plan for worshiping Him. The histoiy of Israel has moved forward in'the account in Exodus where the people de livered from bondage are estab lished as a theocratic nation; that is, one governed by God.The covenant at . Sinai - (ch. 19) was followed by the giving of the law (chs. 20-23), and Uien in chap ters 24-40 we find the worsMp of God established. Two elements are necessary—a way in which God may be approached and a place to meet Him. The former is provided in the ordaining of the Aaronic priest hood, and the latter by the build ing of the Tabernacle. L God Provides a Way to Wor sMp (28:1). The appointment of Aaron as Mgh priest, and his sons to serve with him, provided for the proper con duct of the wOrsMp of God wMch was to take place in the Tabernacle. The sinner coming, into the pres ence of God must approach by way of the brazen altar where'sacrifice could be made for sin. This called for a priest set apart for this holy duty, which would open the. way tor the repentant one to enter into the Holy place, and ultimately’to know that his sin was covered in the Holy of Holies. Consider the grace of God in feus providing for the deep spiritual need of His people. AU of tills pointed for ward to the day when Christ the true High Priest was to make the perfect and final atonement for sin by the sacrifice of Himself on Calvary’s tree. The symbolic- dress of the priest and Ms consecration for Ms duties are all very instructive, but we do not have space to comment at length. Suffice it tq say that the one who is to serve in the conduct of the worship of God is to be' a called,; cleansed and consecrated man, set' apart for a holy calling and eager to be used of God to lead men"into fel- IowsMp with Him. From these first provisions for the worship of God we thus .may learn many of the Mgh principles which are to guide the church re garding the caU and separation of men to the ministry. The gift and grace of God shown in the man’s character are far more important than intellectual or social standing. II. God Provides a Place of Wor sMp (35:4-9, 20-29). The plan for the Tabernacle was given by God to Moses in much de tail, A close study of it will- bring rich reward. Althoughtheplansweremadeby God (Exod. 25-27), note that He gave to the people the privilege of pro viding the materials. Ibey recog nized it' as a Mgh privilege and not a burden, and they came enthusiastically with their gifts. That thought bears application to the believer, for we know that God stiU loves a cheerful giver (H Cor. 9:7). Those who groan and grumble about the money and material needed for the worsMp of God have not caught the real spirit of Chris tian giving. . The children of Israel brought more than enough of tiieir most treasured possessions and of the. la bor of their hands; in fact, they had to be fold to stoP (Exod. 36:1-7). Imagine having to tell people to stop giving! That would be a novelty! The Tabernacle was duly built, and thus there was provided, for Is rael a place of meeting (Tabernacle literally means “tent of meeting”), beautiful and appropriate for tiieir days of sojourning in fee wilderness.. • The significance of the Tabernacle is both interesting and important. (1) It is a symbol of God’s pres ence with His people. AU Whb were defiled were, excluded because God was there. ' . (2) It is a type of God’s :method of bringing sinners to Himself. There must be a sacrifice for sin before commuhion can be established. . The furniture of the, TabernaMe is therefore significant.^ Thealtar of sac rifice and the laver of cleansing come first to the outer court. Then on Ms journey from the sacrifice to the communion of the Holy of Holies, the one who seeks God fejfed by the showbread, lighted.Iqr the candlestick and sustained .by prayer, of wMch the altar Of incense speaks. Christ is the Bread of life, the Light of tim: world,: our HighVFriest and interceding Advocate: .. ■ Within the Holy of/ Holies toe. mercy seat typifies the covering, of a believer’s sins by the Mo,od of Christ. (3) It is. a symbol or the incarna tion of Christ of whom it is said that He "tabernacled” with men. (4) It is a symbol of heavenly things. Christ now appears in heaven for us as our minister and high priest (Heb. 8:1-5). ■ (5) It is a: symbol, of God's dwell ing with men in the ages of eter nity (Rev. 21). _ P la y f u l K itt e n R o lls S p o o lB e t w e e n P a w s THIS lifelike kitten is designed : so it playfully tolls a spool be tween its paws, yet it is very sim ple to make.

Walter L Itenhoar Dear Editor:—It has been some Iitde whiIe since any of my arri- cles appeared in the “Grand Old Davie Record” because of sick ness and other reasons. But I feel itm y duty this morning to write just a short letter to all of the many readers of The Record and of Rev. W. E. Uenhouris ar ticles ; I feel that a Imge number of the readers of Bro. Isenhouris sermons and poems would like to send him at least one dollar as a love offering, and to show our ap preciation for his efforts'in trying to put something before the peo ple worth while. He is doing his best .to get your children and my children to see die right way and be saved from eternal damnation before iris too late. Ihave known Bro: Istohour for over 30 years, and I think a better man of God cannot be found. He’s stood'the test, borne the heat and the ram. He’s been a mighty good herds man; the night doesn’t get too dark nor the weather too bad for him to go after the' lost tribe of IsnteL He’s always ready to go after those that have gone astray and if possible bring them bade into the sweet fold of God, In a Iitde while he will lay die armour down, as he is growing old and gray, until that old chariot will swing low and Bro; Isenhonr will step on board and go sailing to his eternal home. Then he won’t need any money, for God will fur nish him m ilk and honey. No, he won’t heed to buy any dothes then, for God willclothe him in a long white robe. Don’t you want to meet him there andreceive one too? I do. I’m happy in my Soul this morning, and praise God, I don’t care who knows it In my mind l can just sec Brol IsenhoUr standing there at die final “round up in die sky,” with that white robe on, smiling and I can also see that great number ofVsairitk standing around him, and thesp are they that Bro. Isenhour has pointed to the “Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world/’ Then as we look on that beautiful scene we’ll say, amen, and praise God forever) I see nhw just where my dollars were going, and I see why Crater was staking that earn est plea tor old soldier of the cfosf: No one has asked me to do this, except die spirit of my Lord.

Bowles, O PA .: administrator, - that he would.soon place a ceiling' on the 14 4 6 cotton crop is the las* straw so far as the southern- cotton farmer is concerned. Mr. Bowtes says that he is alarmed over the advance in the price of raw cotton. He intimates that cotton prices are too high and must be reduced Today thousauds of unddrpriyit eged cotton farmers are living in substandard houses The - cotton farmer is the loaest paid, worker in America. TboUsandsof tenant • in the South have left the cotton farms And tbe onlv reason all do not ieavr and now to indns trial plants and to the smaller towns and cities is because they do not have bouses to Itve in. They have lost all interest in growing cotton. You cannot blame them I challenge Mr Bowles to visit me in South Carolina and see the mis erafre conditions which ’exist on these cotton farms. - M t. Bowles, shows alarm hot does he realize that-half of the cotton' crop in. 1945, sold at less than 2 0 cents a pound. He does pot tel’ you that be is alarmed that wages of all industrial workers-have spir. aled up and up and up He doer not tell you that raw cotton consti tutes only a small portion of the cost of finished cotton goods., He is not alarmed when a pair of cot ton bed sheets sell retail at $4 .9 6 He does not teli you that this same pair of sheets contain less than .three pounds of raw . cotton—cost, iug the cotton mill, today less than 7 5 cents. Manufacturing, labor retail and wholesale profits account for $4 .2 3 of the entire price of the pair of bed sheets. Mr. Bowles doet not tell you tba' be is alarmed when shirts, 'work clothes, etc., are selling at treble tbe price they sold for in 1940 Not due io tbe advauceto the price of taw cotton. But due almost so lily to. the advance in labor, manu facturing costs, wholesale and re tail, profits Hedoes not tell yon shat he is olarmed when Congres, is urged to raise the minimum wage scale to 6 5 cents- an boor, - The1 poor devil that follows the plow on; tbe farm is today receiving Iesi than one sixth of the ultimate pticf of cotton goods paid by . the con; sumer. - The cotton spinner, the cotton merchant, the whosesate and retail man. in fact everyone cow. netted’ with cotton,m aking mon ey with the exception of the-faigier Why this'SUddeh attack on thfe producer?, Why must the cotiob farmer still bear tbe bruu.t, and his standard of living forced still lowei? He has been a good sport. He has. been patriotic; and aided the war ef fort in every way possible He has made - tremendous sacrifices - HE HAS BEEN TH E GOAT OF ALL TH E TERRORITSTS IN WASH INGTON. Ptices Cf everything have advanced but not the farmer’s cotton. But now nature has taken a hand A short crop has been produced. The cotton farmer is at last: about to come into his own. “ The snip, that he has long looked for is a- bout to sail into port.” Cotton prices are looking up BUT UP SPEAKS MR. BOWLES. It is all right for the. industrial worker to receive more money bat not the farmer. • I cannot, I will not, believe that southern - Senators and Congress: men (OUR REPRBSENTATIV ES) are .going to permit the cotton farmer to hp further nailed Jo the cross.

S. H. CHAFFIN. Clerk of Superior Court. By A. T. GRANT, Attoraey- THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLEe N. C, u ' UNDER THE DOME WASHINGTON.—Busy Tom Cor coran, the ex-bratatruster, has been promoting his law partner, ex-Sena- tor D. Worth Giurk of Idaho, to re place Harold Ickes when and it the latter resigns as secretary of the_ in terior. Clark, a iiormef die-hard iso lationist, is not likely to get-the job. . . . An off-the-record quote from President Truman: “A lot of people used to accuse President Roosevelt ,of being a liar—especially on Capi tol Hill. But having been in this job for a few months myself, it’s . hard to know how anyone could be President of the United States with out occasionally being a liar." . . . Boss of the Bronx Ed Flynn, close friend of FDR and former Demo cratic chairman, is in for tough political sledding. Hard-hitting Con gressman James Roe, leader of Queens county, who spearheaded Mayor LaGuard ia's victory, is out to replace Flynn as Democratic na tional committeeman from New York. . . . Ed Flynn, always more interested in the coveted field of diplomacy, plans to leave for Mos cow this winter to try patching up relations between the Kremlin and the Vatican. . . . Some senators who backed CordelItHull in ousting Sum ner Welles, have now become strong Wellesian rooters since his master ful testimony before the Pearl Har bor committee. . . .

Bloom, who is chairman of the house foreign affairs committee, at tended the rules committee meet ing. as its guest. He was not sup posed to vote. Congressman Charles Eaton of New Jersey, ranking mi nority. member of the foreign affairs committee, also was a guest and supported UNRRA generally. How ever, he began to tell the rules com mittee of his strong conviction that a-"freedom, of the press” amend-, ment should be included in the bill. Anxious to avoid more argu- - ment over this, Bloom, though not a member of the rules coin mittee, shouted, "I move the previous question!” Rules Committee Chairman Adolph Sabath of Illinois banged his gavel and remarked, "The question is called.” . Members of the rules committee then prepared to Vote. . Not- SD Representative Clarence Brown, Ohio Republican. Turning to Bloom, Brown asked: - “Sol, how long have you been a member of the rules committee?” Bloom flushed, While other members of the rules committee grinned sheepishly, realizing they had been taken in. “I just thbught if I could get away with it, I would,” Bloom replied. He did get a rule to put the UNRRA appropriation before the house,, but not without a good deal more discussion. • * • b CAPITAL CHAFF . G.I.s in-India report the U.

One of the few things I’ve, learned this season, meaning 1945, is that : the word - greatest” doesn’t:' belong to sport. There is no such word.; There never was and never wiU be a "greatest” football or baseball team— a “greatest” golfer or Vgreatest” pitch er or “ g reatest”, anything. The word is simply too big fin rik d iiii, for the human race GrantIandRice. to han(Ue The word “good” is different.. Even the word “great” in sport has been overused. Look over the list—Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth in baseball—Jim Thorpe, Fudge Heffelfinger, Bronko Nagur- ski, Red Grange, and 20 others in football. Among, the pitchers—Cy Young, Mathewson, Johnson, Alexander, on and on. AmOng the golfers—Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Byron Nelson, Harry VaTdon. Among the fighters or boxers^- Dempsey, Jeffries, Louis. I can give; you 10 more.Among the greatest college. foot baU teams—Army 1945, Notre Dame .1943, Notre Dame 1930, Minnesota, Soutiiem California,. Pittsburgh, Al abama 1935, Michigan and Yale to the old days. AU good, maybe great; But none of them the greatest. ' BasebaU teams—The Cubs of 1906- 1910, the Athletics of 1910-1913. The Yankees at various stages. AU good—few -great—none the greatest. Who Is FoothaWs Greatest? Is Doc Blanchard greater than Bronko Nagurski? Certainly not. Not yet In fact Minnesota and Michigan camp followers -will tell you that fast 230-pound BiU Daly is a-greater offensive back than either Nagurski or Blanchard. And they can be right. I can name you more than a few backs that might be more valuable to a .team than either Nagurski or Blanchard. The greatest passer or the great est pass receiver? Sammy Baugh or Don Hutson. Maybe. But Greasy Neale says he would rather have Sid Luckman than Baugh and Hut son combined. Maybe Greasy is wrong. Maybe he isn’t. Who is going to know? . Greasy would fath er have Van Buren than any . back he ever saw. Bert BeU of the Steel- ,ers would rather have BUl Dudley for all-around value. I think Clint Frank of Yale is more valuable than either. I put thiscomplicated problem up to Greasy Neale. “Maybe I’d rath er have Clint Frank,”, he said. “I mean taken every way.” Asffne as Dec Blanchard and Glenn Davis are, I don’t think either can do all the things that Clint Frank could do. We can move into other fields to prove there is no such word ,as “greatest.” Man o’ War or . Exterminator? Man o’: War quit as a 3-year-old. Man o’ War is the symbol of rac ing greatness.. But Exterminator ran and won for many years—from six furlongs to two miles—from 120 pounds to 140 poundsr As we move along I still say there is no greatest. Thefe is neither an individual star, a team or a horse that any one can put above all others in competition. Although Pudge Heffelfinger had one unchanenged football record at least. He was ap All-America in 1889 and just as good 39 years later when be was 53. Who can say whether Bobby Jones, Harry Vardon, Walter Hagen or Byron Nelson was the. greater golfer? Hagen beat Jones/12 and 11 in.a. 72-hole match. But Jones beat Hagen 10 straight years in the U. S. Open, where the blue chips were down. Modem Advantages Only yesterday I ran across an old-timer who had run the 100-yard dash against Arthur Duffy and- Ber- nie Wefers, to the fast time of 9.6. “Don’t forget,” he said, “this time Was Vover a slow track with, bad running shoes. Under modern con ditions either Duffy or Wefers could have beaten Jesse Gwen,-Paddock or any other modem sprinter. ; So, again, who is -the -greatest sprinter? The answer is nobody. Games, are played under different conditions; where the modern bunch have all the better of the breaks in every way. They getthefastei -tracks, the better equipment, the better groomed and easier golj courses, the better coaching and training in every form of sport, the better chance to improve. There isn’t a man connected with sport for the Jast 50 years, or a team, that could be called “the, greatest” There has never been a greatest football player, ,a greatest baseball player, or a greatest anything else, In other words; sport has knows no superman, and neither has the hu man race in any other form of exist ence. Unknown thousands with fh< same Tireak could have surpassed famous names. This outburst is I part answer to those who keep writ ing In asking about “the greatest* In various tines. It hrsttB wortl whUejust to be . good. CLASSIFIED D E P A R T M E NT INSTRUCTION . ADVANCED FIANO COCK8E, 81.M W. A. OTTO CUAFuk AJtaae - Ualoa City. N. I. .

N. W.rT'HE whole machinery of Surplus *#• War Property has broken down -Mid the entire situation surrounding Qie disposal of more than a hundred ■ billion dollars worth of surplus war material-is a confused, disorganized ■f&ess. ‘ xThis is the. conclusion of your .Home Town Beporter after an in vestigation, made because we have received scores of letters from vet erans asking how they can obtain surplus war properties. There have rbeen more than 280,OOO applications ><Fbm war veterans during the past Stic months,, all wanting to buy sur- :plus property, mostly trucks, jeeps and automobiles. Only in rare in stances have they been able to do so.'Here’s the situation about surplus property. lit is now scattered among eight governmental agencies at MO Mifilferent points In the country—Re- «ons traction Finance corporation for -consumer- foods, producers’ goods, war plants and aircraft; D. S. Mari time Commission for marine piop- •erty^ihg$late department for goods •overseas; the department of agriculture ,.fop food and agricultural products;; the Federal Works admin istration for .community facilities :stiich assew ers and utilities; the Federal Hoosing authority for hous ing; and die department of the in terior for grazing and mineral lands and all surplus goods In Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico. Then there Js the Surplus Property administra tion presided over by W. Stuart £ymington, who, as administrator makes policy, but who has absolutely no authority over any of the Gth- «r agencies selling the property. 'i War Attelt Corp. Formed {And to make the confusion more ■complete, President Truman, back Ja mid-October announced the for mation of the War Assets corpora tion to be headed by Lt. Gen. Edmund B. Gregorj', the quartermas ter-general of the army, to take over a|l surplus property from the other agencies, except the state depart- nSent, on November S. Then this Was postponed until December I, then to January I, and now to Feb ruary I. The transfer may take jplace February I under the powers the President has under the new governmental reorganization act. But still there will be divided au thority, with General Gregory acting as sales manager and Symington as policy head, but with absolutely no authority over what Gregory or any one else does with War Assets cor poration. ^Reason for much of the confusion and misnbderstanding is this divid ed authority, and the fact that no where is there an inventory of the property- which is declared surplus. Whenever, in the opinion of the army or Ihe navy, property is no IMiger needed, it is tinned over to the various agencies as surplus. The agencies then put it 1 9 for sale. /What happens when a veteran goes to buy surplus war property? Say he is in the Hiiladelphia area. He travels SO or 100 miles to Philadelphia to buy a truck, a camera an d another gadget. First thing he finds out is that some municipality M s priority over him and has taken all the trucks fit to use. Then he Adds out that there are a hundred otfaer veterans there ahead of him bent on the same mission, and fur ther, that what be expected to buy for ten cents or less on the dollar is much: higher and is being sold on a ceiling price fixed by OPA. .C entral Authority Needed AU; this after he has been shunted around between the Smaller War Plants; corporation, the RFC Dis- pqsalagency, the department of commerce, and (he navy material' Bedistributipn office. And he cmmes away sore. - Everybody he deals with •is.inad and dissatisfied. Veiy likely he; returns empty-handed. Whether, moving all these sales agencies .into War Assets corpora tion wfll be a help is a matter of'conjecture. Personnel of BFC will BtiSl operate the War Assets corporation, and apparently General Gregory is none too sanguine about the success. for he is merely on loan frqm the ariny. What is apparently necessary is • merger of Surplus Property ad ministration and War Assets corpo ration. Symington, if he stays as administrator, would be policy-mak ing head, and Gregory or someone else would be sales manager, but with the administrator in complete chargefor centralized authority. As a matter of fact, surplus prop erty is a war baby that no governmental agency wants. Remembering the. scandals in surplus property aft- erWorld War I, the whole procedure has been bound up In red tape by the officials, for. nobody wants to go .to. jail as a .result: of “errors” in surplus property sales this time. It seems to this reporter it Is time for the President to make this CMftralized authority come true, or else surplus war property will be a continual headache for everybody. The govemment will lose out and so will the veteran. . W .N .U THB SIORT THUS FAB: Thtmder- bead it (be only white ftorse ever foaled on the Geon Bar ranch In Wyoming.

Often the hair of her bang was darkened with sweat, and there were tiny beads on her upper lip, and her hands were not steady.. Their fether had called both boys to him soon after they got home and had said with his harshest voice and his fiercest eyes, "Don’t do any thing this summer that will cause your mother trouble or pain or the Ieastanzietyiu “No, sir,” he and Howard had answered instantly. . Afterwards, they had looked at each Other with a long thoughtful look. This was serious. It mustn’t be forgotten. Iheb father sure meant what he saia; Howard's coining home had been another excitement, because " How ard was changed. At least he was changed when Ken first saw him getting off the train and riding home in the car telling his mother and father things about the school In a deep voice that never slipped up any more. He was in his gray tweed suit, and the Fedora didn’t look funny on his face now. When he got into a shirt and blue- leans with a bandana hanging out of Iis hind pocket, Ken began to feel more easy with him. And next day Howard stopped sitting gravely with his mother and father and began to devil Ken and wrestle with him. And on the third day they started to tell eaeh other things. Ken made the acquaintance of Howard’s two best friends at school, Jake who was • footbaQ star, .and Bugsf lAnd in turn he told Howard all about his trip to' file Valley of the Eagles, and promised to take Howard there as soon as there was a chance, and. undid his belt and pulled up his shirt, and showed him the scar from the eagle’s talons.

Wlqr you dope—what fun would it be if it wasn’t real?.”' '‘Well, I dunno-” “Were you just pretending about it all?” "Oh, of course not I" Ken was puzzled about that. How you can lie planning a thing In A real way thinking about it nearly all the time, and yet It is more of a dream than a reality, ^So that when it Suddenly comes true and has to be geared in with actual events, hours and dates and weighing scales, and Entrance fees and shipping arrangements, it is just as much of a diode as If you never really expected it to Howard was squinting one eye, and then the other, making a hawk that was floating high up move from one end of a. cloud to the other. llWhen we get to Saginaw FaHs and change these heavy shoes he’s wearing to light ..aluminum shoes Oiey1Il feel so-light on his feet he’ll go like file wind.” Howard held a finger in the’ air above his face and looked to one. aide of it and then the other. "And if Oiarley Sargent buysDad’s surplus hay and sends it down to Saginaw Falls for the race, then Thunderhead won’t have to change to a different kind of hay from what he’s used to. Besides, Charley can sell it down there for fifty dollars a to n .He said so. Mountain hay is the best, and down there they'll pay anything .if they think it will give their nags a bettor chance.

He got up slowly, stood on his head with ease and nonchalance, then lay down and stretched out agabk Howard-sniffed at such childish-' ness. uSajrI Whinihall we go down there—to the Valley of the Eagles?” “Let’s go soon.

Ken let him go andhe galloped on the little trail he had made himself j until they rounded the hill and the Silver. Plume river came intoview. While the horses watered, the boys debated whether they should stop] andfish, or try to- complete the trip] that'night; and because of HowardV limited time decided on the latter. ' Thunderhead took the lead-sad' they jdunged into the mountains. Hel was filled with a fiery and masterful: energy. He had never forgotten;, and now that the way was open to bis. inherited destiny, he was ready and eager tor it. ■ His stallion’s con sciousness had come of age at last It wds already twilight In the gorge; and under some of the over hanging cliffs and . great trees the frail led into darkness. Biit Thun derhead went swiftly; and when the boys stopped: to-pause and look and exclaim at the; plunge of the great waterfalls or the foaming cauldrons of whitewater, his iron shoe strode the Jrodt impatiently, and his stri dent neigh tore file thunderous roar of ,the river* Ttis scent' was7 getting stronger, and it maddened him with joy. It was fite scent of a destiny, of a Ufe, of an overwhelming emotion.' For not under: the saddle or running obe diently around a track, but here in these mountains lay his whole exists enee and p i had carried the .flame af it in his consciousness for a year. That evening they pitched camp in the puk-like grounds not far from tbe base of the valley ram part Picketed with Flidca below the casop Thunderhead didpot lie down and deep as a young horM should. Oidy older horses, who no longer have growing ifalns, deep standing .onth’eirfeet ButTlunderhead stood all nlght long, his tady quivering, turned to that rampart and Uie pass into the valley, his ears pHcked to catch the faintest sound. He knew it immediately when, in file early dawn, a group of mares and colts drifted through the pass to g r ^ .’lh theparkhtteb elow fifif ram part He nickered and started to run to than, but was ptdled up hy ' V " --'1V.."' his picket rope and stood there paw ing impatiently, nickering again and agfin. Flidca' woke, up and was also seized by the excitement of meeting strangers. Thunderhead ran around the circle flowed him Iqr his picket' rope.;' He backed aWay, lowered his head and gave it a few shakes, pull ing at the rope. / Biit his training had been thorough. It; was, now al most a physical impossibility for' him to fight a head rope. He plunged a bit, and then reared up, pawing the air. When he came down he. whirled and looked at those mares again—just dark shadows in the vague gray • dawn—then he dropped his muzzle to earth, placed one forefoot on the rope, with a little -fling of bis head got it between his teeth and bit it through sis neatly as he had bitten off the leg of file eagle. With an eager neigh he trotted off tow^d the mares, leaving Flicka Impatient and unhappy, nickering lonesomely, but too docile to at tempt escape.' Ken had been dreaming all night of the playful nickering of horses. He dreamed he was riding Thunder head on the range in a bind of yearlings, but why did they keep nickering so? What was attracting their attention? There came an un easiness into the dream. The nick ering persisted but, as if attempting ^to present a plausible explanation, the dream changed rapidly. Now he was riding Flidca in the -brood mare bunch. And now he was rid ing in the corrals on the day of the weaning, for that was surely the .nickering of young colts— Ken’s dreams became still more uneasy, and he sat up suddenly and saw the dawn and knew where he was and could not understand -why the nickering continued even now that the dream was ended. There was one dazed minute in which he sat there, collecting his wits, brushing the deep and the hair out of his eyes, and then he realized that off near the rampart was a group of mares and colts w ith.a Viiiite horse among them, and that the nickering came from them. It was just what he had seen on his former visit to the valley except that this was onljf a small number of mares; and the*Albino, for.some reason or other, was not behaving like a sensible stallion but was rear ing, squealing, whirling around to -face first this one then the other, in.fact was a living coil of move> ment and excitement Birt there was nickering doser at hand too, and suddenly Ken became anxious lest Thunderhead and Fhcka should be excited by the proximity of strange mares and break away from their picket lines. He fluflg back his blankets, leaped out Of them . and ran down stream. It brought him up sharp to see only one horse there. Flicka hardly paid him to run.VToW he thought fast. He picked up a nose-bag half full of oats and walked: very quietly over toward the As he drew near, He called Thun derhead softly and held out the nose* bag find diook it The oats made a rustling soujSd. That was enough, as a rule, to draw twenty horses at a run. But Thunderhead merely turned his head to glance at him, then gave his attention to the mares again. Now and then he would drop his nose to the ground and half* circle the mares—plunging at them —turning, dodging, shaking them. It looked as if he were going to round them up! Ken became more alarmed. If he rounded them up, he’d get them going and he’d go along with them, and it would be still'harder to catch him! “Here Boy! Here Thunderhead! Come along, boy. Here’s your oats —Oats, Thunderhead! OATS!” ' Tbundeihead paid ho attentions With more determination now; he drove at the- mares.

FEAST DAYS OF A PEOPLE LESSON TEXJP-^evlHciB 30:1. S; S :M , J5.18. 24. 27. 28. 34, 39-4«.tiOLDEN TEXT—Ihe lord hath dan* Sreat things lor tu; whereot wo a n Slad.— Paalm 126:3. God wants His people to enjoy their religious life. Being in fellow ship with Him is net something to dampen one’s spirits, but rather to give joy and enthusiasm full liberty. Even with Israel in those ear ly days when Christ had not’come and they had only the promises and .types of His coming, He arranged for regular- religious feasts or fes tivals which brought .the people to gether to worship Him. - One can well Imagine the delightful fellowship as friends, acquaint ances and espe$ajly- relatives from various places went up to file feast together. Personal joy was heightened by the great spiritual joy which they shared. * The obvious'lesson for us is that we who know Christ and have peace and liberty in Him should enjoy our Christian anniversaries to the full in a manner well-pfeasing to Him. We need such occasions to renew our faith, to quicken our joy, and to cause us to remember God’s grace and His blessings.The first of the assigned Scrip ture passages does not directly re late to the feasts of God’s people but rather Speaks-of:I. Hie Holteess of the LoTd (Lev. 2i>:7, 8 ). GodisholyahdHispewleintheir earthly walk .are to show that they have been sanctified by Him. This involves a separation from worldly practices and an eagerness to do the will of God.Keeping the statutes of God should be the delight of His people, not a burden or a trial There is real liberty in conformity to law. Holiness makes for freedom and fruitfulness. Now we turn to the consideration of the feasts of the Lord. . In select ing. the verses, two of the feasts were omitted, so we shall include Leviticus 23:3, 9-12 with the others assigned. D, The Feasts of the Leid (Lev. 23:3-6, 9-12, 15, 16, 24, 27, 28, 34, 39-44). This, is one of the great chapters of the book of Leviticus, presenting both practical and prophetic teach ing. The holy “feasts’* and file “set times”- of Israd (which we shall consider under'the one heajiing of “feasts”) were for their .spiritual instruction-and edification, but they also reveal God’s prophetic;,purpose for both Israel and fiie Qiurch. - ■_ I. The Sabbath (v. 3). This is not ictly considered one.of the feasts iut a set .time—a holy convoca- ion to be held after six,days «f la ir. It is the type, of the rest that id has in mind for His people. See Heb. 4:1-11.) A word :of: admonition is in.ordet. •egardihg America’s awful disre- iect for and misuse of our day rest—the Lord's day. Is. it not ie ,we did something About the lesecration of Sunday? V%. The Passover and the Unleav ened Briead (w . 4-8). These could Ibe considered separately but they are closely related. The Pasiover spoke of the Lan&b of God who was [to shed, His blood on the cross, even as it pointed, back to redemption by t>lood on that dark night In Egypt (Exod. 12:12, 13). vThe unleavened bread speaks of holiness. This * is not' the- result of “servile work*’ (v. 8 ) ,-but a show ing forth of faith in the offering by fire. ..... 3. The Firgtfruits (w . 9-12). Just as the one isheaf was waved before the Lord as the eamest of the har vest, so Christ in O s resurrection is the firstfriiits of them that deep in the grave. (See I. Cor.. 15:20-23.) Note that it was-waved, “on the morrow after the Sabbath” (v. 11) .which is the resurrection morning— our Sunday. What a blessed thought!4. Pentecost (w . 16, 16). Fifty days after the feast of firstfruits came a . new meal offering; two wave loaves are presented before the Lordi..This new meal offering speaks of. the believing people of Christ, and so it came to pass that it was on Pentecost that the Holy. Spirit was poured out on the,Church (Acts 2:1-4), just fifty days after the resurrection of Christ .5. Trumjpets (V. 24). This looks forward to the day when God shall ctil His people Israel in the latter days. This-wlU luring them togeth er for the great day of ' 6. Atonement (vv.~27,28). On that day Christ rfhall take away the sin of His people-(Zech. 13:1), and they shall be'prepared for the crowning and joyous feast of 7. Tabernacles (w . 34,39-44). This was the. great feast of ingathering of the products of the year. Israel then dwelt in booths Jto recall’ ttheir days in the wildeTOMS. It was a time of full rejoicing,'. when sor row and crying were put. away. It is the type oMsrael’s ultimate res toration and fbH .blessing. Sudi are the feasts of the Lord- delightful and faith-stimulating—for Israel and for us! ' ' by Haq DOCTORS Hdps tone up aMt systems — helps children bufld sound teeth, strong bones.

This does not necessarily mean more meat, but it joes mean that you cooks will have to wiise up to the new ways of sea soning and make things taste ex tra special. * If you and your famflly are taste- conscious-^and who isn’t these days —then handle each food as though it were a priceless posses sion and try to make the most of it. In vegetables this means cook ing them until they are tender, but still crisp and crunchy. In meats, it means bringing out ,the best in those hearty flavors; and in salad dressings, it means a careful blend of seasonings that will accent the best in fruit and vegetable fla vors. Take pork chops, for instance. We all know they’re good, but they can be very special when their rich, sa vory flavor is highlighted with a bit of sage dressing, like this: •Pork Chops on Sage Dressing. (Serves 4) ' : 4 pork chops, floured 2 tablespoons sliced onion I teaspoon salt H- teaspoon pepper Vt teaspoon sage IYi cups diced bread I tablespoon batter or substitute I teaspoon minced celery 1 tablespoon minced parsley 4 tablespoons milk 2 tablespoons broth. Blend all- ingredients except pork chops and place in a shallow dish. Top with pork chops, cover and bake 45 minutes in a moderate (350-degree) oven. Bemove the cover and bake 30 minutes longer at 375 degrees. String beans, one of our- more common vegetables, take on added appeal when they are. piepiared. with a sauce that accents their delicate' flavor. Here’s how it’s done: String Beans.(Serves 6 to 8 ) 2 pounds strings beans • Salt and pepper Cook slowly in a covered pan with small amount of water. Dust with salt and pepper.

Turn the gas or electricity off before instead of after removing the utensil from the range. For toprpf-the-stove cooking, use a pan with straight sides as it heats more efficiently. .

DURING THE EARLY SPRING of 1936; I was a frequent visitor at western headquarters of . the Repub lican party in Chicago. Time after time I. listened to discussions be tween party leaders as to the word ing of planks in a proposed party platform. Those leaders, as are those of both parties, were intent on building a platform the planks of which could be interpreted to mean one thing to some people and some thing else to others.After listening to those discussions I proposed a complete party plat form to be expressed in seven words: “Maintain the American system of free enterprise.’’ . It could mean only one thing, I was told. There was no oppor tunity to lit It to the vote get ting needs among, different sec tions, or to different classes. Sach a definite policy could nev er produce the votes needed for , success In a national election. Some days later T proposed the same thing in'Democratic headquarters in New York. It met with the disapproval of both the Jeffersonian and file New Deal elements of De mocracy, and for much the same reasons as were given at Chicago. The results achieved by the Bepnbllean members of the senate and house In drafting a dec laration oi policies reminded me ef these incidents. Theysoaghtl as do leaders of both parties, a declaration of principles Iliat could be interpreted one way In the Dakotas, another way In California or Massachusetts, and still other ways In other sections. The result, nothing def inite to which’to tie. Leaders of both parties are so fearful of individual o and sectional political proclivities that they sac rifice their appeal to -a majority, in an effort to appeal to bom a majority and a minority. On. both sides weasel words are the tools of the vote seeker. ALL WAB CASUALTIES IE ON BATTLE FBONTS BEFORE THE START of the war, so .far as American participation was concerned, I knew a young man, in reality but a boy of a bit under47. He was a newspaper car rier, with pne of the three1 best routes In his small city. He -had secured that route through the dili gence and care'with which he had served subscribers on a less desira ble one. From the better route be had a weekly income of about $7. That boy was proud of his job;' pleased at his ability to earn $7 a week; looked forward, through the years, to the possibility of being circulation manager of the paper. Then came the war, and the demand for workers in the war plants in the section in which he lived. With thousands ef oth- era he secured a war plant Job. He was quickly taaght to do one thing on an assembly line. He did not become a capable-me chanic. He was bat a worker. Within a month he was. receiv ing $45 a week as an assembly line employee. As a worker In a war plant he avoided selective ; service with the armed forces. With the shortening of regular hears, and overtime for some of those that had been regolar, and through the' granting of Ugher pay de mands, he reached a' weekly earning ef $85 a week. . Then the war ended, and Uiat young man, still less than 21, was out of a job. He is back in the home town again, loafing out the days! mi a park bench. That is not because he cannot find a job, but because he now refuses to work for anything leiss than $65 a .week. It will take cold and hunger and, poverty to change that attitude, if anything can do so. If it does not change that boy will be but one of the many thousands of derelicts war work has left in its wake. War produced more casualties than those of the battle fronts. That boy was one.• • *ABE WE, because of the self ishness, greed or stubbornness of the leadm of organized la bor, or industrial management, or both, to miss the postwar; prosperity- boat?
