It is ereSt to live a lone, useful life and come to old-age witb God’s wonderful Messines upon one’s soul, aJmie with Ibe honor and re spect of mankind upon one’s life God honors and blesses those who fear Him and makes tbeir lives a MessitiSj to the world. Here is a wonderful, beautiful promise to the child of God: -W ithlong life will I satisfy hsm. and show him my salvation.” Here is another prem­ ise that every vonth should oo serve, coupled with a solemn com­ mand: ‘"Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy davs mav be long uDon the land which the Lotd thy God giveth ttiee.” No doubt mul. titudes of people shorten their lives mavbe bx half~or more, because thev fail to honor and obey their patents. Others live to be Very old because they honored tbeir par­ ents In childhood and youth, obey ed them, and have lived for God through the years. This pays from everv standpoint. One of my leaders. L- T High- flll, of Mavodan, has written me a letter that hears oot what I am say­ ing Here is a quotation; " I am past ninety years of age. Have been serving the Lord for about seventy years In my younger life I was verv active in church and Sunday scnool work. I served as clerk of our church and superin teodent of the Sundry school and taught a .class. Bat now I am quite feoblo. my bearing is bad, bnt I can see to read the Word of God. ' The Lord has wonderfully blessed and cared for me, and per mitted me to live a long life. I greatly thank Him for the mani foM blessings He gives me, and to; all those who love and obey Him.” Even at this adv.need age Bro. Highfill is still interested in God's cause, and desires to do something to bless mankind and leave a Ues sing behind when he is gone,. He recently ordered a, supply of mv bonks, “ Lost Gems ot The Ameri­ can People,” and "O urRefugeand Fottress.” to give to his friends and neighbors. He said of the books: " I think they give some of the best advice I have ever read for both old and yonng. - They up hold tbe rigbt ami condemn the wrong. They do my son! good to read them. ay God bless yon to write many good books.” If many of our readers would order these books to give to others, as this dear brother has done, they would never regret it. Good books will live on to bless mankind after we are gone: Our sincere desire ongbt to be to live for leave 'some­ thing behind to live after us to hlsss mankind. Tbe p-iice of these books is fifty rents each, or ten copies tor $3 .5 0 . Reader, let ns send you ten cfopies. I have more than a . 'housand copies of “Our Refuge and Fortress” on hand vet. They ought to be in circulation. Address, Walter E. Isenhour1 Hid­ denite, N C, , CIO Holds Balacce “ The present administration is obviouslv a captive of the CIO Communist movement.

No Housing Shortage Missouri is the only state with* out a housing shortage. So many residents have gone to Washington to take a job under Truman. M n v e s f y n e M J g Your investm ent MnAmeHea * * * Let’s Have The Facts Adv'ce to lawmakers: "So live that when thy summons come to testify before an investi­ gating committee, it won’t be ne. cessary to hide behind a constitu. tional immunity which wasn’t in­ tended to protect members of Con­ gress who by their own acts hr.ve roused the suspicions of the public. ” Representative May of Kentuckv has refused to appear before the Head committee except on his own terms. "• Mt. May is not uuder investiga­ tion Thelnquiry concerns itself witb a Kronp of unconscious war war profiteers accused of' bleeding tbe government of millions. - They got their war contracts because the Kentucky legislator nsed his influ­ ence as chairman of tbe House Mili- tary Affairs committe, and de­ manded that fhe group, which started busiuess on a borrowed let­ ter bead, get special consideration from tbe War Department and the Army. ' They got it. Starting with no­ thing, they received a total of 78 million dollars in war contracts on a cost-pius basis; with tbe govern­ ment putting up millions of ad* vances to start them in business. May says he didn’t profit. ~ tie was merely trying to aid tbe war effort and help his constituents. Helping constituents is no crime. Every itiemher of Congress hoping for re- election does that. But there is something abont this case which smells—unpleasant too. It Mr. May’s bands are clean be needn’t be afraid to testify; on the contary, he wouldn’t volunteer, to do so, giadly, freely and without reservations to clear up the cloud hanging over him. especially since he comes up for re election in a. boot three weeks But Mn May won't talk unless be can bring his lawyer, cross exmine witnesses, etcetera, Mr. May is serving his eighth and probablv bis last term Politi­ cal soothsayers assert he ^roti't be re-elected, but whether be is or isn’t this case must not he dropped Tbe Senate committee, replying to Mr. May’s demands and conditions for special treatment, reminds him tbat “ we are all public servants, As such, the citizenry and its repre­ sentative bodies, of which we are members, are entitled to an ac. counting of our stewardship of the public truvt we have accepted . . . . No possession should be more pre­ cious than the confidence of the public in the integrity and devo. tion to duty of' a representative of the people.in a democracy- When wrongfully challenged, we shonld rush to defend that integrity/’ Mr. May has been challenged, bnt failed to rush. Under tbe cir­ cumstances, a more searching in quiry is in order, and the pnblic is entitled to be informed on the find­ ings Statesville Daily.( Wage Increase Chatham Manufacturing Com pany, of Elkin, for tbe second time within the last six months an­ nounced a five per cent Increase in wages as tbe annual midyear bonus checks were distributed among tbe hundreds ot employes.' The salary increase was effective July 1. Bonus checks were: mailed, as formerly to the employees still serving in the armed forces.

He Should Know Better A m anlike Harry Truman: who is reputedly well versed in practical politics, would beexdected to know tbat one of tbe surest ways to elect a man in any American state .Is to exert outside influence against him. s. Aside from the disastrous results of Franklin D., Roosevelt's attempt to purge several senators who were distastefd! to him. Mr. Trnman has before his eyes no fewer than five very rccent examples that this re sentment against o itside pressure is not confined to the South, but is a common American trait. The active opposition of Winch- ell, Pearson and Thomas Stokes and. a b ntnber of others had a di­ rect bearing on the elecrion of Bil­ bo and Sankin in Mississippi and of Talmadge in Georgia. The success of. Butler In Nebras­ ka, was attributed in no small mea­ sure to the interference of Harold Stassen —not because Stassen him­ self was unpopular in tb^at state, but because be was a n 1 outsider from Minnesota trying to influence a Nebraska election. Similar opposition trom outside helped to elect Langer in South Dakota, and the President’s own kind word for Wheeler in Montana, was credited with contributing to tbat isolationist’s defeat. In the face of all this, th" Presi dent is said to have decided on 'an itinerary of speaking on behalf of his friends in five states. He hopes to help Mead in New York, Tun. nell in Delaware, Guffey in Penn, syivania, and to eliminate Luce of Connecticut and Slaughter, of Mis sotiri. If evan that master of politi cs Franklin D. Roosevelt, could not succeed in such tactics, it is hard to understand how Mr. Truman be lteves he can do better, especially in view of his waning influence in the cs D ito l itself,—Charlotte Ot) server, 1 , To Help Food Produc­ tion In Tins State.

There may be a brass band and some bill billies singing ’ 'way down South in the land of cotton.” The winner wilt be $ 2 5 0 and a medal instead of tbe one-third of a cent a pound for which cotton pickers formerly all but broke their backs.

Need of Medical Pertonnel - More than SOO doctors and.300 den. tists with 2,500 nurses have been added to the staffs of Veterans’ hos­ pitals during the past lew months 'under a recruitment program which takes doctors and nurses' from un­ der civil service regulations and ot­ ters them more attractive employ­ ment opportunities. This makes a total of 3,112 doc­ tors, 545 dentists and 7,623 nurses now on duty under the Veterans’ ad­ ministration medical program - in the department of medicine and sur­ gery as set up by Dr. Paul R. Haw­ ley, chief medical director. The immediate need for dentists In VA hospitals has been met by the recruitment program but there is Still need for physicians and nurse3 especially in neuropsychiatric and tuberculosis hospitals in the south, midwest and far west. Questions and Answers Q. I a m a veteran of World War I. Would it be possible for me to get a sash surrender on my service insurance policy? — A. R. D., Pasa­ dena, Calif. A. The Veterans’ administration says that upon proper execution and filing of cash surrender value of U. S. government life insurance and the return of the policy certificate to the Veterans’ administration you will receive whatever cash surren­ der value may be payable. Q. How much can one of those Veterans’ administration appraisers charge a veteran for appraising a house the veteran wants to pur­ chase with, his G.I. loan?—j. H- A., - Seattle. A. There is no set amount. In some instances the banks do not make 'this charge, but appraisers appointed by the Veterans’ admin- istratibn may charge whatever fee is customary in your area. The average fee is something like $15. Q. While I was in the navy I pur­ chased bonds through deductions trom my pay, but to this day I have never received the bonds. Can I do anything S boufitr-E . C., Yonk­ ers, N. Y. A. Write to War Bond office, Cen­ tral Field Fiscal office, 4300 Good- fellow blvd., St. Louis; Mo. Be sure and give your full name, serial num­ ber and the pay periods for which the bonds are due. Also give your correct home address. Q. It seems to. me veterans’ dis­ ability pensions are too low. How do they compare in tw« country with other countries?—Mrs. S. R., Denver, Colo. " A. The United States pays higher pensions to disabled veterans than any other country. In England, Australia, Canada and Hew Zealand pension payments vary according to the number of dependents and the rank of the disabled veteran. Q-1 am drawing the readjustment allowance for self-employed veter­ ans. If I don’t draw the full M00 each month for the 1014 months is the balance available to me after the period is up?—Jdckson, Miss. A. No. No matter how small an amount you draw each month, that Is considered a full month’s pay­ ment - ' Q. My son has a bad-conduct discharge. He is a veteran of World War H. Is he entitled to any benefits under the GX bill?—Mrs. J.- H., Hartford City, Ind. A. He may be, but since he hqlds neither an honorable nor a dishon­orable discharge, it would be neces­ sary for him to contact his nearest Veterans’ administration office for a decision as to whether he was dis­ charged under conditions other than honorable. He has a right also to . apply to his service for a revision of his discharge. Q. I was retired from the service with retirement pay for a service- connected disability. I. get $125 a month. Am I eligible for any pay­ ment from the Veterans’ adminis­ tration for on-the-job training? Will I lose my retirement pay if I Sign up for such training?—A. R. S., Oakland, Calif. A. No, I don’t think so. You can take on-the-job training and draw the regular subsistence allowance, plus what the company for which you are Working will pay you, plus your retirement pay. Suggest, how­ ever, you check with your regional Veterans’ administration office. ■ 41. Can a member of the armed services retire on a medical pen­ sion after serving 20 years in the airmy and still get retirement pay? —Mrs. K. L., Anadarko, Okla. A. The army says no. But the soldier might be able to draw a service-connected disability pen­ sion from the Veterans’ administra­tion. Q. I have, an honorable discharge' from the WAVES. AmI entitledto my bid job?—L. S., Sikeston, Mo. A. Yes, provided you are quali­fied and . make application for re­instatement. ★ . ★ I?-'*'*-*'*'*-*'?'**' H O U S i H O L P H f * * * J w/t •.

Amonii the most envied women the past few years were those with large stocks of their own canned hruit. Yes, commercially canned fruit has been a mighty rare com­ modity during the war, and it’s still scarce. 'I f you plan now to do your canning, you’ll be among the lucky home­ makers when shortages really be­ come acute during the fall and win­ ter. There are few pleasures greater for the cook than those jewel-like quarts and pints of luscious fruit on the pantry shelf. And besides/ it’s very easy to can fruit because they are acid and easy to prepare. You have a choice of two pre­ ferred methods, and you are not limited to a pressure cooker in case that is causing you some worry. A hot water or boiling-water bath, as it’s sometimes referred to (because the water must be -kept bubbling merrily above the jars all during processing) is very adequate for canning fruits and tomatoes. As you may. know by trips to the store, .you can buy one of those large kettles fitted with a rack and cover to hold, anywhere from four to six or even eight jars. If you don’t want to buy a water-bath, you can rig one up yourself with a washboiler and a rack. Some wom­ en have evem found lard pails satis­ factory because they are deep enough to let the water come the required two inches above, the jars, and stiH broad enough to take four pints or quarts easily, depending upon their height. Seleetion Important. I can’t stress too. highly the im­ portance of having the.freshest pos­sible produce for canning purposes. Perhaps it is best pointed out in this way. You know the rapidity with which fruit spoils as soon as it is picked. You also know how im­ portant it is to have unspoiled fruit placed in a can because''it easily spoils when preserved if there are bacteria there that begin working. Blemish-free fruit trill take less time to put In cans, and the chances of spoiling are cut down. Beside# that, the appearance of the fruit is better.'- LYNN SAYS: Here are some canning point­ ers : To guide you in the approx­ imate number of jars you should have, you’ll want this guide. To make one quart of canned, fruit you will need these' amounts of fresh fruit: 2% pounds of apricots; 1% pounds of cherries; Vh pounds of peaches; 2 to 2% pounds of pears; 2 , medium-sized pineapples; Ih to 2 pounds of plums; Vh pounds of rhubarb; and 3 to 3% quarts of strawberries. Always use the manufacturers!, directions' in fastening the cap as caps vary greatly in their use, ' Here are fruits which may. be cold-packed or hot packed: apri­ cots; berries; cherries; grapes, figs; peaches; pears; pineapple;' plums and rhubarb.. . . LYNN CHAMBERS’ MENUS Chicken With Dumplings Lima Beans and Corn Stuffed Tomato Salad White Bye Bread Spread Fresh Diced Pineapple Cookies Beverage Freshly picked fruit and berries, young, tender and full ripe, are the best ingredients S ; for canning reci­ pes. Under - ripe fru it does not have mellow fla­ vor, and over­ ripe fruit will be m ushy. T hat’s, why the “primp condition” of fruit is so important. Look out for bruised spots, signs of decay and other injuries. All these things have a great bearing on the quality of your final canned fruit. v Making the Syrup. . Fruit may be. canned in just plain water, but if you have any sugar at all (those extra canning stamps for sugar!) make a syrup; even if a very thin one for canning fniit. The syrup mellows them and brings out true flavor. ' Here are some proportions for the lighter syrups which are popular this year: Light: I cup sugar, 314 cups wa­ter. Moderately light: I cup sugar, 2 cups water. Medium: I cup sugar, Vh cups water. To make the syrup, combine the sugar and water and allow to boil for five minutes, without stirring. Remove scum and use to fill jars. You’ll n^ed from 34 to I cup syrup for each pint of fruit after it’s packed in'the jar.. If desired, juice may be extract­ ed from fruits and berries by crush­ ing, heating and . straining. No su­ gar is needed, tTse it as you would syrup. In making syr­ up, one-half com syrup may be . used with one- half sugar. Honey m ay a lso be used, but it does darken the fruit and emphasize the flavor. \ . Methods iff Packing. Fniits may be cold-packed for canning prior to: processing. This means that raw fruit Is packed cold into the jars, then processed in the boiling-water bath or pressure cook­ er. This is suitable for many fruits and berries, and is usually used by women who- have a lot of canning to do. • " The hot-pack .method is sometimes used for fruits. This means pre­ cooking the'fruits in the syrup a short time Defore packing in the jars and processing. ’ The open kettle' method gives beautiful fruit, but is not often used today because therb is too much danger of contaminating the fruit after it is cooked and transferred to the jars. In this method the fruit is cooked thoroughly in an open ket­ tle in the syrup and then placed In the jars and sealed.

C ro w d e d C a p ita l S lo w ly R e s u m in g F o rm e r C h a rm XXTASHINGTON is the biggest " county seat town in the ,coun­ try. It is a beautiful city of broad, tree-lined streets and. avenues, of stone and marble public buildings, exquisitely beautiful parks and statues, laid out with pleasant sym­ metry, roughly in the form of a wag­ on wheel with its avenues emanat­ ing from the Capitol and the Mall. But Washington is a city of con-, trasts, and its beauty but lightly masks its slums, for in the shadow of the national capital, of the or­ nate senate and. house office build­ ings, there are "slums and blighted areas equal in squalor if not in.ex-, tent to' that of any large city. Fifteen years ago Washington’s population was something like 350,- 000. It had the air and atmosphere of a southern city. It was easy­ going and unhurried and its pulse quickened only when congress con­ vened. It was a city of tourists, the native population looking upon them with condescendingly good huriior. Today Washington’s population numbers over a million, and in the metropolitan area which spills oyer into Maryland and Virginia across the District-of Columbia line, the total population runs something like 1,300,000. These people have flocked into the capital city from every cor­ ner of the nation, once the world, and today Washington is truly cos­ mopolitan in population if not in its physical plant. .- City to Remain Big For Kie city, its business district, its utility facilities, its , planning, zoning and housing was set up for a city of less than half its present size and although there ,may- be some reduction in population as gov­ ernment, its only industry, reduces its staff after the war, civic leaders here do not foresee an appreciable reduction in the size of the city. So during these 15 years Washington . has- zoomed, and particularly the past five war years the place has been packed and jammed with hurrying scur­ rying . humanity. Stores are crowded and lines even form to get out of these stores; people are living doubled-up in apart­ ments, single apartments having as many as five or six people occupying space intended for one or two; streets teem with shoppers; traffic is slow; street cars and busses are packed; houses are at a premium, of course,, although there is a tre­ mendous building boom under­ way In outlying Maryland and Virginia in the metropolitan area which includes Bethesda, Silver Spring, Takoma Park, HyattsvUle and other communi­ ties in Maryland, and Arlington, Alexandria, Falls Church and other near-by towns in Virginia. Life is complex here today. Con­ gressional debate draws no packed galleries from local gentry; trans­ portation and other faciUties have barely kept pace with growth; food is in short supply; there has been little or no beef in Washington for months; restaurants feature seafood dishes at prices which paralyze; there are lines waiting for tables; sightseeing, busses have started op­ erating again; the capitol dome is again floodlighted; business' and of­ fice space is a t.a premium with rents outrageous; huge foreign gov­ ernmental agencies such - as the British Furchasing agency and the Russian Piurchasing agency are giv­ ing up whole apartment buildings which they occupied, and these are being turned, back to tenants;, gov­ ernment agencies are being reshuf­ fled and the people of tire dis­ trict at last see an opportunity to gain the baUot. Civic Pride Lacking For this capital of the greatest democracy in the world is the least democratic city in the world . . . its people are taxed without repre­ sentation . . . its government is a feiodge podge affair, unrepresenta­ tive of the people . . . and congress now seenjs inclined to grant these people the right to vote. Because of the fact the people have no say about, their city government there is no civic pride here . . . there is no civic leadership : ... for congress and the commissioners named by the President and approved by con. gress run the city. Big Parties at Embassies Social life here Is largely eon- fined to homes and diplomat­ ic centers. The embassies and consulates along Massachusetts- avenue and Sixteenth street pro­ vide the settings for lavish par­ties and entertainments. Fri-.. vate d a b s also furnish social life for their memberships. There are no first class night clubs, and hotels, ovgenm del as they are, have few facilities for this purpose except at the Statler and the Mayflower.

At the same time, he runs the risk of becoming unconscious through cold, fear or oxygen lack before pulling his rip cord. To safeguard him against this danger, an instrument has been developed, operated by baromet­ ric pressure, that automatically pulls the rip cord at any preset altitude between 2,000 and 20,000 feet above sea IeveL SPMINS UL SLOAN’S K ’s n o f u n to Iiave W i B t c i t S M n T r s j& t.

U IRATE OVER PROSTITUTION WAanNGTON.-Admiral Nimite is trying to bush it up, but a hot row has broken out in the navy’s chaplain division over alleged dis­ crimination against chaplains with combat records, some of whom have been denied admission into the reg­ular navy and others transferred to minor posts. Four well-known chaplains al­ ready have resigned as a result of the dispute. They are: Capt. William A. McGuire, Cath­ olic chaplain of the Uth naval dis­ trict at San Diego—a 29-year naval veteran who served as fleet chaplain at Pearl Harbor at the outbreak of the war. Capt. Maurice Witherspoon, Pres­ byterian, former All-America foot­ ball star at Washington-Jefferson college and one of the most popular chaplains in the navy. Capt. William W. Edel, Methodist, who also chalked up a fine record as a combat chaplain. Capt. Baymond DriAan, Catholic, former chaplain of the battle- scarred airplane carrier Enterprise. In addition to the claim of combat chaplains, that they are being relegated to minor roles while their non-combat col­ leagues get the top commands, many also are sore over the navy’s failure to crack down on prostitution in Japan. A number of Protestant and Cath­ olic chaplains who served in the Pacific contend that the navy is abetting the growth of prostitution in Tokyo by an indifferent policy in regard to foe Yoshiwaras. These chaplains further charge that those who have fought prostitu­ tion in Tokyo have been disciplined for their efforts — among them, Comdr. 0. B. Cook, who was trans­ ferred from Tokyo to Guam. * * * PATH, PORTER A-BOMBED Chester Bowles, who stepped out of government after tough years of battling inflation, is a close friend of Paul Porter. The two fought side by side—Bowles as economic stabilizer, Forfor as administrator of OPA. When Bowles resigned, Porter, left to fight the inflation battle alone, wrote a note. “I now feel,” Porter told his former chief, “like a native whom the navy forgot to remove .from Bikini just before the atom bomb exploded.”* • * FILIBUSTER AGAINST A-BOMB It’s Southerners who have foe rep­ utation for filibustering, but three northern Republicans are conduct­ ing a filibuster more secret and just as skillful as that of any Dixie Dem­ ocrat. It’s against foe atom control bill—vital, to the nation. They know the house will pass the senate-approved McMahon bill for control of atomic energy if it comes to a vote; so for two weeks three Republicans "have kept the bill bottled up in the military affairs committee by stalling at every turn. The three filibusters are Parnell Thomas of New Jersey, Forrest Harness of Indiana and Charles El­ ston of Ohio. Many committee members - gave np an evening Iof a spe­ cial session in order to complete the bill and give the U. S. a pol­ icy to back up Barney Baruch in the Dnited Nations. Half an hour after the time set for the meeting they lacked a quo­ rum, and Ohio’s recalcitrant Elston would not let them proceed. Only one more member was needed. Finally Congresswoman Clare Booth Luce of Connecticut phoned that she was on her way to the comfnittee room from her office five floors above. But while she was in the elevator, Elston grabbed his hat and left so there still would be no quorum- Thus a dozen conscientious con­ gressmen were' forced to waste more than an hour, and Bernard Baruch was left high and dry before the United Nations with no law on the statute books to back him up.• * • IRKED OVER PALESTINE It wasn't announced, but Prime Minister Attlee sent a confidential message to President Truman in­ forming him that British troops had taken repressive measures against Jewish elements in Palestine. How­ ever, foe message arrived only after British troops already had moved in. Attlee asked Truman for a public statement of support, but the Presi­ dent was so irked at the way Attlee acted first and advised him after­ ward, that he phoned acting Secre­ tary of State Dean Acheson and told him Jto issue a statement keeping American skirts clear of the Briti ish move. . * • • MERRY-GO-ROUND John Snyder kept bobbing into - the .cabinet room durhig draft­ ing of Truman’s OPA veto mes­ sage. He wanted to lend a hand in writing the1 speech bpt nobody gave him any encour­ agement. The speech was writ- . ten largely by OPA Boss P au l' Porter, Reconversion Csar John " SteeIman and Judge Sam Ro- senmsn. . . . The FBI already Ji digging into large-scale hoard­ ing. Some very big manofactar- lag concerns may be Implicated \Phfflipr ELMER TWUCHELL O N R E S T A U R A N T S Either the wrong men are operat­ ing too many lunchrooms and res­ taurants in this country or else ;they’re just too scared to speak to the help about things. - • “I do my share of eating In mid­ dle class eating places,” said Elmer TwitchelI today, “and it is my con­viction that most of the operators are glorified dog-wagon men. I am no chef myself but I could get up better dinners with an olid broom and a bucket of switch-grease.”♦ Elmer was quite sore. “What’s become of the old-fashioned restau­ rant proprietor who wanted things right? Whatever happened to the chef who had pride in hid work? Where is the old-fashioned bartend­ er who knew how to mix a drink right?” he demanded.• “It’s years since I have ran across a proprietor who has a con­ science, thinks it Importaiit to hold his trade and won’t water the soup, cut down the portions more than necessary or feel npset if he dis­ covers the potatoes have not been served odd.- • “And I am not referring merely to the Grade B restaurant. Some of our best clubs are now employing cement mixers as chefs. •_ “I had a business man’s lnnch at a private dob last week and I siffl can’t figure if the manager and chef were former pig feeders or just a couple i(I boys who confuse human befogs with seagulls.” •_ EImcr wanted to be fair. “I ad­ mit it’s hard to get foodstuffs,” he concluded, “but it seems to me foe boys shotdd know what to do with it when they get’it.”• * • Ex-Pfe. Purkey in A Qaontet Hat Dear Ed: Weh now I know how it feels to live inside of a egg, or even inside half a egg. The wife and me has just got one of them Quonset huts.

The bomb was suspended from a special barge (2). As Indicated by the arrows (3) a'num ber of "drone” ships were directed into the lagoon to test the effects of radio-activated water. B y W A L T E R A . S H E A DWNU Washington Correspondent. HONOLULU, O PE R A T IO N S CROSSROAD. — WhUe army and navy officials In charge of Joint Task Force I at foe Bikini atomic bomb tests are interested in foe squabble now going on in foe con­ gress as between civilian and mili­ tary control of atomic energy, their single interest here is to complete 'successfully the important experi­ ments on the possible damage which an atom bomb can do to a fleet at sea. In the meantime, Adm. W. H. P. Blandy, commander of Operations Crossroads, has intimated that weather conditions may force a week’s delay in the uhderwater test in Bikini lagoon scheduled for July 25, which would make ,4Baker-day” Aug. I or thereabouts. As has been pointed out, the weather for this second test need not be as perfect as for foe first test when the bomb was dropped from a B-29, but it must be clear enough for aerial ob­ servation and photography. The press ship USS Appalachian has completed her trip to Pearl Harbor for minor repairs and' now is anchored with the rest of the maintenance fleet inBikini lagoon, ready to puU out and cruise outside to the seaward side of the island when the time is ripe for the second test. Few Remain. Only ’approximately 23 corre­ spondents are left aboard the ship, since most of them returned to the States immediately after foe first test. : ' The pattern for the underwa- ter test, has, been completed with the battleship Arkansas, ' which was barely blistered by the first test, and the carrier Saratoga, also undamaged as a . result of the first bomb, almost equidistant and nearest to the proposed bomb burst. A little to the east are the battle­ ship New York and the cruiser Salt Lake City. Both suffered, negligi­ ble damage in the first blast. Then to foe west of ,the two center ships are foe cruiser Pensacola and the carrier Independence. The old In­ dependence is merely a hulk in foe water with her insides torn out and her topsides blasted 'away as result of the bomb and her own internal explosions. The Pensacola is un­ damaged below decks, but her super­ structure is pretty well battered up as a result of the first tests, with both stacks blown away. Farther out in foe circle are foe battleships Pennsylvania and Ne­ vada, the Jap ship Nagato and' the German pocket battleship Prinz Eu- gen, - Just forward of foe Arkansas and foe Saratoga are several sub­ marines which are submerged at various depths with the double­ hulled Pilotfish almost as close to foe center of the burst as the Ar­ kansas. Lighter ships make up the balance of the target array. Opinions Vary. The effect of foe bomb on these submarines is awaited with interest and in the meantime fhe discussion goes on as between those who pre­ dict this underwater blast will sink several capital ships including foe submarines, and those who declare the damage will be negligible. Oceanographers, who have made such; elaborate 1 plans to measure effects of foe bomb, will come into their own on this second test. There was little for them to measure as result of foe first test since the bomb made no appreciable waves and did no damage to foe ocean bed, beaches or foe island. However, this second test is ex­ pected to create high waves in the lagoon, anywhere from 10 feet up. There are 81 officers and men in this section of the task force, most of whom have been in foe vicinity of Bikini since last March recording data on the physical oceanography, biology, geology and fisheries of the atoll and surrounding waters. Measurements of wave motion in terms of time, height and distance, their effect on foe sea bottom and on the beaches fall into three classes—supersonic echo sounding devices, and aerial and surface pho­ tography, plus maximum water height recorders on Bikini island and water level meters on severa1 other islands of foe atoll. There are supersonic echo sound­ ers or fathometers on 16 ships in the target array which will record large waves through foe rise and fall of foe ships, while 11 super­ sonic echo sounders on buoys will record passage of shorter waves. Mechanical pressure recorders laid 500 yards apart on the bottom of foe lagoon are capable of recording wave height in raiige from 4 to 200 feet Animals Still Dying. The after-effects offfhis radio ac­ tivity is impressive as seen from foe effects on foe live animals placed aboard the ships, some ol which still are dying despite treat­ m ent three weeks after they were exposed to foe first bomb. As foe first task force awaits on the eve of this second test one cannot help but con- 1 jecture upon foe possible effects of this unpredictable and still unknown terrific nuclear force wbicb can decimate entire cities and depopulate nations as . has been amply demonstrated at Hiroshima mid Nagasaki. The first test proved beyond ,any doubt that the bomb was not as ef­ fective In the open space at sea as it is when detonated ovei heavily-populated areas on land . . . that used against naval bases on land it could render a fleet at sea impotent, but that it would'put out of commission a good many ships if they were in close formation and that loss of life aboard these ships would be terrific. What effect this atomic energy will have on the future of foe Amer­ ican navy as to ship construction and operation now, however, lies in the laps of foe military evalua­ tion board and foe President’s atomic energy commission, both of which are making a study for fu­ ture guidance. s We can only hope that medical scientists and other scientists here for observation will glean from peace-time application which can bring benefits, and not destruction, from this new war-born source oi energy. ‘E c c e n t r i c ’ B o m b E x p l a i n s W i d e M is s Over on Kwajalein where . the army air force section of the task force .is holding forth, Maj. Gen. William E. Kepner, deputy com­ mander for air, still is seeking to find an answer to the questions of reporters as to' why Ntejor Swan- cutt and his crew missed the .Ne­ vada or bulls-eye of the first test by something IQce 2,500 feet. This reporter does not believe the miss was that far. since my calculations indicate the bomb fell astern and a little to port of the Nevada about 600 yards away or approximately 1,800 feet. At any rate, General Kepner now comes/up with an answer, accord­ ing to his latest conference, that the bomb was an “eccentric” and that foe drop was in foe category known as a ’’wobbler.” In other words that the bomb veered'and did not fall true. o r 7C J M m A N O M C E C. Keller THERE are many details or im­ portant items in sport that are beyond all human understanding. And this doesn’t only mean horses that run last in one race and then win the next time out. It doesn’t ' mean a Billy Conn, who w a s completely fearless in his first Louis meeting, who had been complete- Iy fearless through his entire ring ca­ re e r, w ho w as known as dead game and yet ap­ peared to be in ter­ ror in the recent heavyweight title fiasco. Suppose we take up the case of the New York Yankees. I happened to be !,in the, -immediate vicinity of the Yankees, the Red Sox,, and the Tigers for several weeks in Florida this spring. ~ Everyone figured, and this includ­ ed Joe McCarthy, Btil Dickey and Larry MacPhail, that , the one pos­ sible weak spot In the Yankee line­ up should be their pitching. Spud Chandler—and then who did Ihey have? Their defensive fielding was an established fact This part couldn’t miss. What about the Yankee offense? Now you must admit that Joe Mc­ Carthy, Larry MacPhail and Bill Dickey are three rather sm art op­ erators as far as baseball is con­ cerned. Offense? With Joe DiMag- gio, Charlie Keller, Tommy Hen- rich, Snuffy Stirnweiss, Joe Gordon, Nick Etten, Phil Rizzuto, Johmiy Lindell1 Bill Johnson, Aaron Robin­ son, Bill Dickey—here was the last and least worry. The Yankees had their full share of fielding defense. But above all they had something more important—their attack—their offense—their power at foe plate. McCarthy, MacPhail and Dickey all admitted this. Nothing to worry about in the way of a run-making attkck. Stimweiss had led the Amer­ ican league at bat a year ago—.309. DiMaggio was a normal .340 hit­ ter. Etten, Gordon and Henrich were at least .285 hitters. Keller was a .300 hitter. Rizzuto had been a .310 hitter. The team average should have been around .280 or .285. Mystery of the Yankees So what happens? Nearing the end of July the team batting aver­ age of foe Yankees is under .238. They are far below foe Athletics and the White Sox. Outside of Char­ lie Keller they stand with a flock of .233 hitters, taken as an average. Yet most of these players were once dangerous each time they moved to the plate. They were batters to be feared. Today almost any one with a right or a left arm still hanging on can stop them cold. What has happened to the old- fashioned Yankee attack? Practi­ cally every member of the squad is, a friend of mine. It isn’t a matter of dissipation or lack of determina­ tion. They ,are giving the game all they have. On a general average they are smart, intelligent, hustling ball play­ ers. They feel lower than MacPhail or Bill' Dickey feel. Their repu­ tations, which means their living, is at stake. But they can’t hit. You can understand one or two men moving into a batting slump. How can anyone explain practically an entire team taking foe soapy chute at bat? There is no longer any question but that the tropical trip to Panama took a heavy toll. Those who went to Panama report­ ed to St. Petersburg early in March in July condition. They were too far ahead of any training schedule. I don’t believe this mistake will ever be. repeated. Anyway it is only a part of the answer. It can’t explain the entire story. .When 11 ball players, who should range somewhere between .280 and .340, drop below .240—experienced, veteran ' stars who have been through the fire before—you wade right up to your neck in what is technically Imown as a quandary —whatever a quandary is—trying to find the answer. Look at the Red Sox! You can’t blame this on war years because in foe same spring and summer interim, ,the Red Sox have placed five hitters among the first ten. The Yankees have had only one hitter—Charlie Keller—among foe first 10. The Yankees have been down slightly lower than foe White Stec were in 1906, when they were known as the “Hitless Wofiders.” But foe "Hitless Wonders” had Ed Walsh, Nick Altrock and Doc White who were pitching four and five-hit games. If any three of foe U Yankee hit­ters expected to bat from .280 to .340 had only moved up in the .280 class, many a ball game, now lost, could have been saved. This amaz- ing’reversal of form has foe usually sane and able BiU Dickey baffled. Bill, bring a Veteran who has- al­ ways .used his bead, can understand two or three members of a team in % three-months slump. But as he shakes his Arkansas head, he can’t quite understand 10 or U 'from one squad forgetting what the- rid aril furniture means, and how it should be used. Pegged .

Again they quarreled, and Meg went oat Into the night to.be alone on the ridge. Tom Fallon startled her as he walked Into the moonUght near the rock. She told Um of her lather and AUcla, Snd the demands to sell the (arm. Be talked again of his wife and how she went to pieces when a son was horn dead. She • was sorry for him. TOie house was dark and silent when she returned. She was half asleep when she heard a soand and Hptoed to her father’s room. Ho had Jnst returned from another "walk,” and rndeIy commanded Heg to go to bed. ' CHAPTER X It was after one o’clock, so she knew that her father must be asleep by now. She undressed in the dark and slipped into bed. She felt a little ashamed now of the violence of emo­ tion that had sent her flying from the house to the Ridge; in the face of the grief and heartache that Tom carried with him twenty-four hours of the day, seven days a week, her own seemed trivial. She was half asleep when she heard the downstairs door open and her father start up the stairs. There was something in the stealth, the furtiveness of his tread on the stairs, and the way he opened his door, inching it shut, that roused her more than noise would have done. He so seldom bothered to be careful about noise. He walked into the house and up the stairs and closed his door forcefully, no matter what time he came in; but tonight he had crept so cautiously that she was puzzled, and she slid out of bed, caught up her cotton crepe ki­ mono, and stepped into her bedroom slippers. ■ She listened at her father’s door, and when she heard -only a soft, rustling sound, she tapped and asked, “Is that you, Father?” “Who the blazes did you think it was?” he snapped at her. “I was afraid it might be a bur­ glar—” “Oh, for the love of—what the devil would a burglar want here? I fell asleep over my paper down­ stairs, and tried to get upstairs with­ out waking you. Hereafter, I’ll see to it that you are awakened.” There was something odd about his voice that she couldn’t* quite distinguish. He- seemed_to be breathing hard, as though'he had been running or were laboring under some terrific excitement. I “Go to bed!” he called to her sharply, and she turned and went back to her. room. It was near noon the following day and Megan was busy in her perennial border along the walk, re­ setting some clumps of phlox and thinning out some of the other perennials that were taking too much room for themselves, when a sudden sharp scream ol terror rent the- peaceful, mild air. • Megan jerked to her feet as the scream came again—from the direc­ tion of Alicia’s house, and now she saw a girl whom she recognized as Betty Hendrix, whose father owned a dairy, come stumbling down the path from Alicia’s house, wringing her hands and screaming. “What in the world—” somebody asked. One of the men ran up the walk to the house, stepping over the milk pail, whose contents had splashed over the porch, and looked through the half-open door of Ali­ cia’s house. - He gave a yell and stepped back. Then others crowded dose and looked in and instantly stepped back as though they had received a blow. The first man who had reached the place—Bill Logan, it was—pulled the door shut and said sternly, “Mustn’t anybody go in there till, the police get here. Might mess up a clue or something. Somebody go call the! law." “But what is it? What’s hap­ pened? Bill, for Pete’s sake—” cried Mrs. Stuart, as usual one of the first at the scene of any catas­ trophe or unusual event in Pleasant Grove. "Miz’ Stevenson’s been — mur­ dered,” said Bill, swallowing hard and looking a little green. . ' There was a stunned moment of silence and then a little buzz ran around the crowd, and the word “murder” was the only word that could, be distinguished in that buzz. “Murdered? fiddlesticks, Bill Lo- gan-you read too many o’ them mystery Stories,” snapped Mrs. Stuart, thrusting her way forward. “Maybe Miz’ Stevenson’s got h u rt- an accident Get away from that door and lemme see. We ought to see ,how bad hurt she is." ' “She’s dead!”. Bill said grimly, and Mrs. Stuart saw the greenish tinge to his sallow face. “Ain’t ho mistake about that And the police always want-to be the first ones to get into a place where there’s beien a murder. So I’m standing ■ right here till the cops get here and there ■ain’t nobody going in till then.” Megan stood at the end of the walk, still holding the sob^iljg Betty close. Betty was stammering, her voice choked with sobs, “I brought her milk; like I always do, and I: stopped at the door and I said ‘yoo- hoo—it’s me, Mrs. Stevenson—can I come in?’ And when she didn’t say anything, I opened the door—and sh^ was Iyin^ there—all bloody—” Megan uaged her-across the road and to the porch, where-Annie stood watching and listening. Megan was too, shocked, too ap­palled at what had happened, . and too busy trying to soothe the hys­ terical girl to realize that Annie’s dark face was ashen,; or that her eyes were wide and the - whites showing to an unusual degree. An­ nie’s thick-lipped mouthwas tightly folded and she said no word as Me­ gan and Betty reached the porchi But Annie’s hands were . Idnd and gentle, and between them, she and Megan were able to get the girl into the house; away from that rapidly increasing crowd across the road, out of- reach of voices that were sharpened-with cixcitement and cu­riosity. The day crept on somehow. Mer gan and Annie turned Betty over to her family, and the house grew quiet. Neitiier Annie .nor Megan was disposed to talk; Megan, because she was locked fast in her sick, shaken thoughts; Annie, for reasons phII ' Then others crowded close and looked in and instantly stepped back as though they had received a blow. of her own that she had, at the mo­ ment, no intention of revealing. Megan was too self-absorbed to be aware of Annie’s curious, furtive glances as they went like automa­tons through their regular daily chores. Probably, not a . household in Pleasant Grove sat down to a midday meal; what food was con­ sumed. was taken more or less on the run. So it did not occur either to Megan or to Annie to wonder when Jim MacTavish did not appiear for the meal. Tom, stopping on his way from school to pick up his daily supply of milk and eggs, paused for a mo­ ment to say, distressed and unhappy, “It’s a terrible thing. I can’t heip feeling terribly sorry for her—alone there. She must have been terri­ fied.” Megan.said, in a small, strangled voice, one hand at her throat, “Oh -jdon’t!” ‘T m sorry,” TonJ said compas­ sionately. “It must have been very unpleasant for you, all day with that m ob-” “I hated her—and now she’s dead —and I’m SO ashamed,” Megan con­ fessed humbly. “I didn’t even try to help her. Maybe if I had—’’ “Oh, come now, for goodness’ sake,” Tom protested. “Ypu must not give way to such thoughts! You’re on the verge of becoming morbid.” “They say it happened before mid­ night,” Megan told him thickly. ‘-‘Perhaps she"— she might have screamed—perhaps if I’d been at home—” Her voice broke and she was silent, her teeth :suiik hard in her lower lip, her eyes sick and frightened, dark with horror. Tom came into the kitchen and put his hand on her arm and gave her a IiMe shake. “Stop thatl” he ordered sternly. llEvenvJf you hadbeen at home-even if you’d been down here in the living room, you could not have heard her. And in your room upstairs at the back of the house—can’t you see how foolish you’re being, darling?" The little endearment slipped out.. Yet the moment, the second, after it- had been spoken it seemed to crash in both, their ears with the sound of doom. His face went white and set tihd his eyes were tragic. Megan caught her breath and looked up at him, her eyes wide'and dazed, incredulous. There was' a pause between them that could have been a matter of seconds; yet to each of them .it seemed to stretch endlessly. Tom said, his voice- harsh and verjulowi “Yes, I said ‘darling’—I have thought it often enough/* " - “Oh—no!” Megan said in a small, choked whisper. ; Tom straightened: His face looked as though'it had been carved out of granite. . . “Of course not—it never hap­ pened! I didn’t say it—I never even think it. Forget it, will you?” said Tom in that harsh, strained voice. He . took up the milk and the basket of eggs and went swiftly out of the!5 house. The sound of his footsteps, on the oltl broken-brick walk were the. most final sounds Megan had ever heard in all her, life. She stood listening until the last one had died to silence, and then she leaned, weak and shalrfng, against the cabinet be­ hind her and put her cold, trembling hands over her face. She became conscious of Annie’s presence, - when Annie said very quietly, Ker old voice gentle and warm with tenderness, “Yo’ paw done come, honey.” She was too dazed to wonder how ltaig Annie had been there, to won­ der how much of that taut little scene Annie had witnessed. Some­ how that didn’t matter at the mo­ ment. She only knew that she must accept Annie’s words as a warning and pull herself together before she faced her father.He had gone directly to his room. She heard him moving around up there as she and Annie finished get­ ting supper on the table. /When he' came down, he was freshly shaven and his shirt was immaculate. He had bathed and shaved and changed before supper, as he had done ever since she could remember. It had been one of the things that, as a child, she had been proud of. When she. had gone home to supper and to spend Uie night with some school friend, and the sdhool friend’s fa­ ther had come to the .supper table, collarless, a stubble of beard on his tired face, still wearing the sweat- stained, grimy clothes he had worn in the field, she had thought always of her father with pride, if not with affection. He came into the dining room, moving wearily, and when he had; seated himself, he looked straight' at her across the table and said sternly, “Yes, I know about it. We won’t discuss it, if you don’t mind.” “Of course not,” she answered,, ac­ cepting the dish Annie offered her, and serving herself without in the least knowing what the food' was. She managed to eat, without the faintest awareness of what she was eating. Hfer father was equally silent. He was pale and there, were haggard circles beneath his eyes and his hands were not quite steady. And she did not know when the evil, stag­ gering, thought began to creep slyly into her mind; when she began to remember the unusual stealth and caution with which he had let him­ self into the house last night; the way he had climbed the stairs on tiptoe; the way his door had closed behind him. Suddeniythe thought stood clear and hot in her mind: where had he been? She set her teeth hard to keep them from chattering, and- locked her hands tightly in her lap. Sie no longer could go through the mechan­ ical motions of putting food into her mouth, of forcing herself to swallow, while the evil thought crept through her mind. He had said, when she called to him through his- closed door, that he had fallen asleep over His paper in the living .room; but she had known that he was not tell­ ing the truth. For there had been no glimmer of light anywhere in the house when shS had come in. When she had come in ! It had been after one o’clock when she had come in. That mysterious grapevine by which a secret whis­ pered in the kitchen of a house at one end of town will reach the far* thermost house on the other side of town, in <any small place like Pleas­ ant Grove, reported that the doc­ tor felt Mrs. Stevenson had been killed sometime between ten o’clock and midnight! And she, Megan MacTavish,'had been on the Ridge with another woman’s husband from eleven o’clock until almost one! Her father had come into the house a bit later. The silent meal ended and she helped Annie clear .the table. When Annie refused her help with the dishes, she went reluctantly into th* living room, where her father had already established himself with the weekly newspaper, which he had read last night. Wh^n she cam* into the room, he was sitting staring Straight before him, his face white and still, his eyes bleak and fright* . She came then and sat down is the chair opposite him, in front of the small; cheerful fire,, and took up her basket of mending. And then she saw that-her father was watch­ ing her covertly, out of the corners of his eyes, and that when' she looked straight at him, his eyes dropped almost guiltily to the paper. She put down*the sewing basket. Her mouth was dry, her throat felt constricted with horror, and a creep*, ing fear , bred of that slow, evil thought was spreading through her mind.' Suddenly, almost as though someone else spoke the words, she asked in a fearful whisper, “Fatha —did yoYi do it?” : . -i (TOBECONTgSIVSD) Bjr BABOLD L. LUNDQUIST, D.

JESUS AND HOME ' RELATIONSHIPS LESSON TEXT—Exodus 2(1:12; Mark 5:9-13; Luke 2:51,. 52; Ephesians 6:1-4.MEMORY SELECTION—Honor thy fa­ther and thy mother; That thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord1Uiy God g Ivetli thee.—Exodus 20:12. ftome—that place so dear to the heart of each one of us—is even more precious in the. sight of God. He is concerned, about our homes ^nd those who live in them. Right' relationship between - chil­ dren and parents have much to do with\the peace and prosperity of a community and a nation. Experi­ ence has demonstrated that to .be true, but even more basic is the fact that it is in accord with the promise of God. One of the sad breakdowns in modem life is that of proper honor and obedience to parents by chil­ dren.- In all too many homes God’s order has been reversed and in­ stead of honoring and obeying their parents, children (both young and old) have taken the place of “boss,” and mother and father must obey :if they want peace and rest. • The problem of. juvenile delin­ quency, or perhaps we should say more correctly, parental delinquen­cy, is right on our doorsteps, now. That means that the need for our lesson is both great and acute. The future happiness of hundreds of thousands of children and the pres­ ent welfare of thousands of neglect­ ed and boss-ridden parents will de­ pend, on the intelligence and faith­ fulness with which this lesson is taught in our churches, and the hon­ esty of heart with, which we all re­ ceive its truth; I. The Responsibility Stated (Exod. 20:12). “Honor thy father and thy moth­ er”—how good, and substantial, and right those words sound. We are told by Paul that this is the “first commandment with prom­ise” (Eph. 6:1-3). -The L ^d was not making a bargain with man, or seeking to draw out obedience by a prize, but there is obviously a great reward in the observing of this com­ mandment. Then too as the children of God (if we are such) through Jesus Christ, the first and most important consideration to come before us is, What is the mind and will of the Maker of us all regarding this mat­ ter of the relationship between par­ ents and children? * Hft words are plain: we are to “honor” our fa­thers and our mothers. The word “honor” carries with it a great many things, but per­ haps the three outstanding elements are respect, obedience and affection. Qut men do not wish to M ow God’s direction, so we see next II. The Responsibility - Evaded (Mark 7:9-13). Such an important commandment naturally held a high place in the thinking of the community. To vio­ late it involved a measure of shame which men sought to avoid. So the Jews of Christ’s day devised a scheme which made it possible for a man to appear to be very religious even as he deprived his parents of the honor and help to which they were entitled by'the law of God. . The man who did not wish to sup­ port his aged and needy parents could entirely evade that God-given responsibility .by declaring that his property was “Corban”; that is, dedicated by a vow to God. There­ after no matter how great was the, need of his parents they could re­ ceive nothing, and yet he could keep it and use it for himself. Thus do men make “the word ofGod of none effect” (v, 13) tnrougb their traditions. The method differs but the spirit persists even in our day. Jesus made short work of such trickery and evasion. He declared their man-made creeds and tradi­tions to be simply a means of mak­ ing the command of God of none effect. Once more he condemns that formal religious observance which serves as a\cloak for sin and selfishness. . III. The Responsibility Fulfilled(Luke 2:51-52; Eph. 6:1-4). 'The manner in which children should be obedient to their parents and honor them in the home is beau­ tifully exemplified in the'life of our Lord, living as a boy in Nazareth. - In the home the growing youth finds the best place for normal, well- rounded development (v. 52). There is' no substitute for the home. The words of the Holy Spirit through Paul in Ephesians 6 :1-4 stress; the same truth and enlarge upon it. This matter of honoring and obey­ ing parents “is right," says Paul. It is- the Lord’s way* but it is also that which 'commends itself to ev­ ery right-thinking person. ,There is tremendously -important, truth on the other side of the pic­ ture. Parents are not to provoke their children to anger, to disre­ spect or disobedience. May God lielp us who are parents that we may take to heart this part; of our lesson.. Our children are our most valuable possession. NErrHKR craven nor vain. The test of courage comes when we are in the minority; the test.of tolerance comes when we; are In the ma­ jority.

An Old Favorite ❖ A recipe popular a half century ago appeared in an early edition of the Bali Blue Book. It reads: "To every pound of small yellow tomatoes allow one pound of sugar. Put the tomatoes and sugar togeth­ er and to every seven pounds of sugar allow the juice of three lem­ ons. Let stand together all night and In the morning drain off Kie sirup and boil. (The recipe doesn’t tell how long, but 10 minutes should do.) Put in the tomatoes and sim­ mer for twenty minutes after they boil. Remove the tomatoes and allow the sirup to boil until thick. Just before taking from the dre, add the lemon juice. Put the fruit in the jars and cover with boiling sirup. Seal immediately.” If a more modem recipe us want­ ed, you might try: 2% pounds (peeled) small tomatoes Vh pounds sugar 2 cups water % ounce whole ginger Itt lemon'(sliced thin) to ounce of stick cinnamon Boil together water, sugar, lem­ on and spices for fifteen minutes; add tomatoes, a few at a time, sod cook gently until the tomatoes be­ come bright and clear. Then pour into shallow pans, cover and let stand over night. Padc the cold to­ matoes into hot-jars and strain toe sirup over them. Process twenty minutes at simmering. TC you are wondering where you are going to get the sugar, as who isn’t, here is your recipe: Recipe for Less Sugar 2 pounds tomatoes 2 cups sugar * 2 cups com sirup, light or dark % cup water I lemon I smaU orange 1 stick cinnamon 2 pieces ginger root 6 whole doves Mt cup raisins Use small, firm, red, yellow or green tomatoes. -Scald one minute.

A t present, high living costs are forcing m any persons, par­ ticularly m em bers of the so-called w hite-collar class, to accept m erchandise of inferior quality or do w ithout, but alm ost every­ body can have vegetables of superior qualify and flavor for there can always be gardens, and fortun-< ately, glass jars for home canning are pre-war quality at pre-war prices. . Canned foods should be seasoned, flavored, or sweetened to suit the taste of one’s family. H you like com and beans, com and tomatoes, tomatoes and okra, cooked together, can them together — but keep in, mind that a mixture must be pro­ cessed the time needed for the vege­ table requiring th longest time. Own a Canning Book "But," warns Gladys Kimbrough, Home Service Director for Ball Brothers Company, manufacturer of home canning jars, “whatever you do by way of seasoning, be sure to follow the rules when canning. Every homemaker should own a good canning and preserving book.” Buy whatever new jars, caps, lids, and rubbers heeded. Use reg­ ular home canning jars and beware of any which haven’t the name of a reliable manufacturer on them. Examine every jar, cap, and lid be­ fore It is used and use according to the manufacturer’s instruction^. Be sure pressure cooker and water-bath canners are in perfect order. Use strictly fresh produce and use it the tday it is mature enough to cook for immediate serv­ ing. Discard tough, withered, rusty, wormy vegetables. Wash all prod­ uce before breaking or cutting and wash only enough tor one canner load at a time. Don’t Lose Time • Waste no time between‘steps in gathering, sorting, washing, prepar­ ing, and canning. ' ' Cover prepared vegetables with boiling water and boil five- minutes (some vegetables, for example beets and sweet potatoes, require longer). Pour hot vegetables into dean hot jars. Don’t cram them down. There must be room for wa­ ter to circulate between the pieces and there should be from Mt to I inch space between the vegetables and the top of the jar. Cover vegetables, after placing' in jars, with water In which they were boiled or use fresh boiling water. Use clean salt, add it before or after the jars are filled, or leave it out. It is put in for seasoning only. If air ..bubbles form, run a knife down between side of jar and food. Put tbe jars In a hot canner as soon as they are filled. Letting them stand around on the kitchen table in­ vites spoilage. Process all vegetables except to­ matoes, which are really a fruit, in a steam pressure cooker for the time given in the recipe you are following.' We recommend the use of a pressure cooker because, when in good working order and used ac­ cording to instructions, it is by far the quickest and best way to can all low-acid vegetables such as beans, beets, peas, corn, etc. Boil­ ing for a long time , in a water-bath canner is the next best way and is the one commonly used in the North Central and Eastern states. Water- bath processed vegetables (does not mean tomatoes—they are acid and should be done in water bath) should never under -any circum­ stances be tasted until after they have been boiled’ 15 minutes. The same is true of those processed in a steam pressure cooker when there is the slightest question as to wheth­ er the cooker was in good operat­ ing condition or was operated cor­ rectly. The purpose of boil-before- tasttag is to destroy any toxin which may have developed. The toxin won’t be there to destroy if fresh’ produce has been carefully washed, prepared, packed, and properly processed. Bnwiium nuniunmiiiiiumm niiinm uuuiangiflntB liWininKBa.

N. C. Th^ masses of ma‘ kind seem far tnore willing to support tbe wrong cause than the rfeht, even though tbe wrong cause curses them, while tbe right cause blesses them, or would bless them. A movie star receives many, many times the sal arv that a preacher of the Gospel receives, and of course her life and work Is a Uemendons curse, while that of the true preacher of the Gospel is blessing. Many profess, ed Dhrlstfans give far more to the movies than tbey do so the cause of God. Others spend fai more for tobacco tlifan they spend to­ ward Christianizing tbe world. Their tobacco bill runs far into the doilars per year, while thev give a few pennies, nickels and dimes to the church. One liquor store, or beer joint in a town may take in more money than several churches The influ. ence of the liquor store and beer joint is Indeed a great curse, wbile that of tbe church is a blessing with the right preacher as pastor, and with the right congregation as followers,. It seems to be no trou­ ble to carry on a business that is a curse, when it is considered from a financial standpoint, but very hard and difficult to carry on anything that is a blessing. Tbe wrong cause has an overwhelming finan­ cial support, while tbe right cause suffers and suffers for support. We have seen churches started in both the country and town, and for tbe lack'of finances the work goes on very slowly, or stands and stands, while in tbe meantime a theatre goes np tn a iitfte white, which may cos,, several times that of the cbu-ch. W e wonder why people a.e so willing to put their monev into a cause that is a curse, and give It so freely and lavishly, but so unwilling to give to the canse that is a blessing. I suppose, however, it is because the world tbe things of the world rather tbsn God and the things of God. The wonder is that God would be so merciful toward those »bo take that which belongs to Him and give it to the devil. * It never, never pavs an individ­ ual or a nation to support the wrong cause Thure is alwavs a penalty that bas to be paid forgoing wroug instead of right Men and nations have to reap what they sow. If they indulge their appetites, or give of tbeir means to gratify the lust of the eyes and the orids of life, they have to pav for it dearly sometime, somewhere. It is a de­ plorable fact. G. 0. P. GainsIn Penn­ sylvania Tbe Cbrbitiau Science Monitor says: Pennsylvania Repnblicau leaders expect to elect this year the Com­ monwealth’s largfest Republican re­ presentation since 1 9 2 8 . They cite tbe 'May 21 special Congressional elections in Peunsyl vama as tbe basis for the predic tion that they wi)l capture at least 2 4 ot tbe 3 3 seate alloted Penn sylvania.and"give the G O.

O. P. IiSmni Wmr Bond' ItwestmentH Foiir Invegtment MnAmeriea*** Our Sahration Back of all the1 talk concerning inflation aud price control, is the undeniable f ct that heavily in­ creased production is our main sal yation Everyone knows that black m at. kets are created by an indequate supply of desired goods Io normal, legitimate outlets. This country’s price control policies have contri bated unnecessarily to that inade­ quacy. No one will produce an ar­ ticle if be can’t sell it for enough to pay his costs. And no tnaou facturer, farmer, or retailer can "bold tbe price line” indefinitely in the face of increasing wage and operating expenses beyond bis con­ trol. He must raise bis prices or quit producing. > In tbe case of many agricultural products, the government has at­ tempted to meet the issue through the old device of subsidies. A child can see the economy fallacy in that. A subsidy means that part of the cost of what vou buy is paid out of ygnr tax dollars. In tbe king mo, tbe bill is greater. Those who try to bring about businesslike administration of orice control aren’t the friends of pro duction—inflation’s enemy. This country has tbe greatest produc­ tive potential on earth. It has, in addition, a highly competitive dis­ tribution system which Is a miracle of efficiency. Until these forces can operate freely, we shall conti­ nue to enrich the black market; and prevent legitimate producers and distributors in all Gelds from performing the vast serviees of which they are caoable thereby as­ suring goods at the least inflated prices Ex. Food Sarplas Coming? It may sound paradoxical, but one effect of rising food prices since June 3 0 might be a sudden and un. expected appearance of iood sur pluses all over the United States. The4Teason is that foreign coun. tries and UNRRA, which have been heavy buyers of American food supplies have began canceling their orders because they do not want to pay the higher prices. Tbese purchases have been made either by our own government or by foreign governments und,er set. aside orders of the Department of Agriculture This department at located certain supplies to UNRRA and to the needy foreign countries, and these orders were to be filled before the domestic demaud was met. But tbe foreign buyers do not care to use up their new ctedits at inflationary prices As a result, they have canceled tbeir orders, and therefore our exports of food products are dropping sharply and leaving that much more to supply the domestic demand W ith some of tbe biggest crops in history about to be harvested, we may find ourselves with a food surplus before we know it.—Char­ lotte Observer. At the Dime Store “ Look here,” ,said tbe unhappy visitor, “ I lost my wife and three children. I’ve walked tbe street for two hoqrs, and I haven’t the slightest idea where' they could b e - ” v- : ‘'Y ou'll find the .dime store,” said tbe ooliceman two blocks, north, to your left.” " ! \ " Made Good "Does your husband always live up to bis promise bt bis courtship days?” Always.

TheFarmer FeedsUsAll The farmer in this county cao barely make, a living it lie bas what we call a good farm, yet the world is more dependent upon the farm­ ers than that of any industry With our millions In this country, seat leg themselves at the dining tables three times dally, surely the farmer should KaiD much attention. Io this day and time of mounting inflation,, tbe biggest, the most in fluential and most powerful group In tbe nation sits idly by, striving to supply the needs of a world that in turn is not giving it fair treat, menf 1. Increased production ' make it harder and harder for the farmer to continue to produce The coun. try and the world are begging for food. Yet tbe farmer has bnge obstacles to sunnount in trying to surmount In trying to supply the world’s needs. W ith prices increasing in Indus­ tries daily, the farmer must con- tinue to sell for small profit with plentv of hard WorktlStrnggliog to pay higher costs for wbat be pur. chases, and selling his harvest at a low price all out of proportion with other advancing prices. A cotton manufactured item that once sold for 7 5c now brings any. from $ 3 to as high as $5- The farm­ er continues to keep the world a live, even though he gets little or no credit for it. Should the farmer ever decide to use the striker’s method, in one season he could have the world at his feet.— Ex. a New Deal Sells Out B. Carroll Reece, chairman of tbe^. ^Republican national commit­ tee, declared that, the Democratic (Itfew DfeAl) administration was te sponsible for the country's "strikes, violence, stoppages and contusion," because! it traded lopsided, unfair governmental favors and tbe influ ence for votes and political sup. port Iu tbe blackmarkets of the racketeers and exploiters.” “ It traded the administration’s integrity and the people’s trust for a mess of political pottage,” assert, ed Reece, adding “ now the pottage has disappeared and we have only the mess.” “It has happened,” said- Reece in an address prepaeed for delivery before tbe Hartford Women's Re publican organization, at Hartford, Conn., “because the New Deal ad­ ministration—which Mr. Trumau assert cover and over again is still in power under his presidency, sold itself—and the country—in to 'tbe bands of political extortioners and blackmailers — and the nation ' is is paying the bitter price of that unholy deal. "This happens in America—be. cause the men holding the real power in the administration have lost bt)th tbeir sense of dedication. It happens because these radical and mercenary men, in their de termination Ip stav In power and to establish an alien rule here are thwarting your constitution, under­ mining your rights aud tearing at the very foundations of American free society. They are teaching class hate instead'of tolerance; dis. seintion iostead 0 1 co-operative spirit; organized and bureaucratic tyranny instead of a rule of by, and for the people, and you are suffering the consequences ” HisReqaest “ I have only one request to make’' groaned the college man who had come to work in the - bar- vest. “ What is th at Mr, Smart?” re turned the farmer.

S H Q f K K i B U R E A U ' EDITOR’S NOTE: Thu neuppaper.j through special arrangement with the: Washington Bureau of Western Neta- paper Union at 1616 Eye Street, JV. W^ Washington, D. C., is able to bring Tead- ers this weekly column on problems of the veteran and serviceman end his fan*, ily. Qitestibns may be addressed to the above Bureau and they will be answered in a subsequent column. No replies can be made direct by mail, but only in the column which urn appear in Ais news­paper regularly. Look Out for ‘Slicker^ The war department is w aning relatives of servicemen killed in ac­ tion against spurious promises of slick promoters to "expedite return to this country of bodies of deceased veterans.” The war department handles the whole matter and there is nothing any one, but an official of that agency, can do to help any relatives in this matter. On the_ question of which relative has the final say about disposition of a body of a soldier killed over- seas the war department recognizes wishes of kin in the following or­ der: If the deceased was married, the widow has the preference,' but she must not have been divorced or le­ gally separated from him at the time of his death and she must not have since remarried.* If the wife has remarried or been divorced, the preference passes to the sons if they are over 21. If not over 2i then to the daughters if they are over 21. If all children are under age or if there are no children, that the right to dispose of the remains passes to the surviving relatives in the order of their relationship, father, moth* er, brothers, sisters, etc. If the de­ ceased was not married, then the de­ cision rests first with the father, then mother, then brothers and sis* ters over 21 and if there are none, then the right passes along to other relatives. Qaesiiotu and Answers Q. I know of a lady who served as a WAVE in the navy and liet husband also served in the navy, I am told they are drawing $100 a month each and will draw this for a year.' I have a son In the navy and he will' be discharged in July. Is there any such law granting this amorint to servicemen? If so how can my son obtain this? Do they have to be unemployed or self-em­ ployed? Is it based on time spent in service or rating?—Mrs. D. W. M., Cabool, Mo. A. The WAVC and her husband, both veterans, possibly are draw, ing readjustment allowance checks amounting up to $100 per month each for self-employment. The law provides that a veteran who is self- employed in .any independent estab­ lishment, trade, business, profes­ sion or other vocation is eligible for readjustment allowance if his net earnings are less than $100 for the previous calendar months, the amount of the allowance being the difference between his net earnings and $100. Q. My husband was kept out of the army until the war was over, then he saw he would have to go so he enlisted. Then he Med to get a discharge and they tnmed it down. Hien he enlisted for the regular army on February 18, IMS, knowing he would get oat when his IS months is up. His father Is un­ able to handle the farm properly. He has put in for a discharge and sent in the necessary papers. Do yon think he will be discharged?— Mrs. A. B., Stanley, Miss. A. He likely will get his discharge if his commanding officer thinks his is a hardship case, although since he was turned down once, un­ less he .,has new evidence it is not likely that he would be discharged on the same evidence. Q. My son served in the army for 22 months. He was discharged to take over the farm work which was too strenuous for his father, who was disabled. In other words he was considered of more value to the army for being on the farm than otherwise. Please tell me if he is entitled to any mustering-out pay? —Mrs. B. S., Morganfield, Ky. I A. If the discharge was issued purely on a dependency or hard­ship case, then he is not entitled to mustering out pay. ‘ Q. My baby was born DeeembM 3. My husband was discharged January 3. I sent the birth cer­ tificate to the navy department, but haven't heard from them. Where do I write to . get m y. certificate and am I due an allotment for him?— Mrs. E. I>. H.,’ Greys, Ky. ■ A. Since your husband. is out of the navy, of cojirse you are not en­ titled to an allotment. Suggest you write the same -place you sent the birth certificate. Q. My brother has re-enlisted in the army air corps six months ago. Since he has done this my family has not received any allotment checks. My father i s ' very sick and has been in bed tor live years. During this time he\ has been ,de­ pendent on his son’s ebeeks so can you advise me what steps-1 should take to clear this matter?—Mrs. p . B., SeHnsgrove, Pa. . A. Since an allotment to depend* ent parents is voluntary on Uie part of the serviceman, would suggest you Write your brother and, ask if lie has applied for an - allotment* H e re ’ s M e a t fo r T o u r T a b le (See Recipes Below) C h o ic e W a y s w ith M e a t Ihe large am ounts . of cattle butchered recently mean more meat on your table, and for many of us,, it will mean rounding up those delectable,- mouth-watering - recipes that.make meat so good to eat.

(Serves S to 8) 3 pounds round steak (2 inches thick) Flour, salt, pewter, tat 2 onions, sliced K cup water Wt cup sour cream 2 tablespoons grated cheese . H teaspoon paprika Dredge steak with flour and sea­ son with salt and pepper. Brown on both sides in hot fat. Add remain­ ing ingredients, cover pan closely and simmer slowly until meat is tender, about 2 % hours. Beef a Ia Mode. (Serves 10) 5 pounds beef ramp toast H pound fat salt pork Pepper I. clove garlic, chopped Salt, cayenne, flour 2 onions, sliced 4 tablespoons bacon drippings I bay leaf I sprig parsley 3 carrots sliced I turnip, slicedH cop boiling water. Cut deep gashes in beef. Slice salt pork very thin, rub with pep­ per and place in of meat. Rub meat with garlic, sa lt. and c a y e n n e and dredge with flour. Brown.onions in bacon drippings, 'er~- > remove onions and {dace meat in kettle. Place onions, bay leaf and parsley over the meat. Cover and cook slowly until well browned on one side. Turn and brown on other sides. Add vegetables and cook un­ til well browned. Add boiling wa­ ter, cover closely and simmer for 3 hours or longer, adding more, wa­ ter if necessary. Serve- meat with vegetables and gravy. You should be able'to find plenty of pork on the market, and there’s no more tempting way of preparing; pork chops than with apple stuff­ ing.' Here’s how it’s done: L IN N SJKXS: Pan-Broiling Meat: If you don’t have a broiler and want to broil meats, use a heavy, pre-heated flying pan. Do not use any fat in the pan, except when broiling ground meat. Brown meat in the hot pan db both sides. Season onlyafter it is browned, other­ wise the salt «511 draw out the rich juices: Never add water or cover the -pan for pan broiling. The idea is to make it as close to oven broil­ ing as possible. ' V When , meat is browned,: tom down the heat to finish cooking. Turn occasionally to cook evenly, and keep pouring off the fat as it accumulates so that the meat will broil rather than fry. Lamb chops, small steaks, chops and meat patties are excel­ lent when prepared by this meth­od.

If you’ve been lucky . enough. to get your share' of lamb, then you will want ideas for preparing the different cuts. Because of its del­ icate flavor, Iamb takes a different type of seasoning than other'meats, Lamb Hash in Cabbage Leaves. (Serves 8) lheadofcabbage 1 pound Iamb,; minced 2 onions, chopped ,1 cup uncooked rice Salt and pepper 3 or 4 tomatoes, sliced H cqpw ater Meat stock Cook cabbage'until tender; drain and separate leaves carefully.

Drain lamb and place meat on skewers alter­ nately with mttshropm caps. Place 4 inches below- moderate broiler heat and broil 12 to 15 !minutes, turning several times. - Remember :that uncooked meat will keep safely only a few hours unless you put it in a refrigerator or very cold pl?ce. Ground meat needs colder storage and keeps a shorter time than unground meat; Leftover cooked meat also needs storing in a cold place.

S . P a c ific DIKlHI ISLAND.—There is an un- forgettable picture spread be­ fore me here in this south Pacific atoll V . . a picture of great beauty and. a lesson which portraiys the American way. For tonight as far as the eye can see in a huge arc which marks the curving length of this three-mile- long island thousands of electric lights wink in the soft trade winds and mirror their reflections in the gently swelling waters of the la­ goon. Thousands of other lights from the fleet of some 200 ships an. chored in array form other pat­ terns of reflected lights, numerous searchlights stab the star-studded sky and the winking lights of ship communications play a soundless tattoo upon the southern night. Red and green riding lights atop the masts sway in the rolling waves and add color to the magical picture in this far-off place.Tet only a few short months ago this Island and the entire atoll of coral reefs and islets was as primi­ tive and wild as when the first Polynesians steered their fo il out­ rigger canoes into Bikiid lagoon some 800 years ago. Today the small band of natives has been moved bag and baggage to another larger island and taking tbelr place are thousands of American boys swarming the beaches and playing beneath the cocoannt palms bom which the natives derived their chief food supply. Paving, Steel Bmldings Concrete walks have taken the place of the rough native trails; coral roads have replaced the sandy paths trod for centuries; rough thatched huts have been -replaced by sturdy American structures; handball, basketball, tennis and horseshoe courts edge into the palm groves. Steel towers form installa­ tions for radio, television and other communications . standing high above the trees. Ilie chug of a gasoline engine, the roar of bull­ dozer motors and the shouts of men in recreation break the stillness of the night . . . such sounds as have never before been heard since this ancient volcano thrust its crater rim above the waters of the Pacific and the countless millions of coral polyps deposited their skeletons for eons of time to'form the rock and sand base of the atoll reefs . . . the crashing splitting thunder of two atomic bombs have broken the peace and stillness .of this fairy­ land. American ships lie upon the coral heads, of the lagoon floor . . . 30 fathoms down. Soon divers will explore their wrecked hulls to note the work of atomic energy and blast upon the workmanship of shipbuilders. Oceanographers will again chart the lagoon bed to see what this man- made force' has done to nature’s work. Biologists will study the fish life to learn what radio-activity has done, to the living tissues. In the years to come an entirely new spe- oies of fish, may be one result. A radio station, ice plant and elec­ tric plant lend their functions to this newest outpost of the American w ay'.. . for where American sailors and American soldiers and airmen go so must go the American way in ships and planes. Expensive, bat Worth It To date this mass movement of ships and men their supply and maintenance has cost the American taxpayers some $70,000,000: so that our military planners, might learn the effect of atomic energy on ships and men and materiel. And it is costing an approximate half million dollars a day to keep it going-. . . going well beyond the summer months for' the' third test is now scheduled for November and the to­ tal-cost will rjin- well over ,$100,000,- 000. Our congress and our mili­ tary leaders believe it is well worth it. And they’ve left nothing undone. A jazz orchestra plays sweet swing music and the sound is waft­ ed across'the water from the of­ficers’ club where the legend over the . doors reads “Up and Atom.” And there’s plenty of refreshment in liquid form, so plentiful it may be the reason for the shortage in the . States and cheap too. Some 30,00.0 men are here , . . a little piece of the United States transported to the South Pacific. It we could only see a ferris wheel the scene before us would resemble nothing more than Coney Island.* • • « *■ About one-fourth rof the animals- exposed to the atom bomb test of Jtdy I are now dead. This does not include those killed for autopsy. Capt. Shields Warren, radiological expert, says that about tine-third of the survivors are in a critical con­dition from burns. Four goats, all quite sick, have been flown to Sie XT. of Chicago for blood studies. Their ailment is due to radioactive- rays. One hundred and eight white mice have been SBfrn to the Na­ tional Health Institute at Bethesda, Md., where they will be studied.

WASHINGTON. — Here’s the In­ side story on the sudden appoint­ ment of John-Leighton Stuart as new American ambassador to China. 1 Originally, President Truman planned to appoint Lt. Gen. Al Wedemeyer as ambassador to Chi­ na. As a matter of fact, Wedemey- er’s nomination already had been typed and was on the President’s desk. However, last week General Marshall sent Truman an urgent cable advising that he finally had found one man who could act as am­ bassador and who was on good terms with both the Communists and the Chiang Kai-shek group. Marshall also pointed out that Stu­ art had lived in China for 50 years and spoke fluent Chinese. •So, 24 hours later, President Tru­ man nominated J. Leighton Stuart to be. American ambassador to China. * * * . ARGENTINE ATOM BOMBS The fascist Argentine government has completed elaborate plans for going into the atomic-bomb busi­ ness on a scale parallel to' that of the U. S. The Argentine Scientific asso­ ciation has proposed and re­ ceived approval of the Argen­ tine war and navy departments to finance importation and, op­erations of the best nuclear physicists in the world, includ­ ing German refugees. The Argentine government is guaranteeing these scientists unlim­ ited funds, complete scientific lib­ erty and absolute personal security from police terror. The head of one important Argentine scientific group informed the Peron govern­ ment that Nazi scientists are doing well but still are not operating rap­ idly, enough to satisfy the Argen­ tines.• • * ATOMIC BAT RACE V. S. atomic delegate Bernie Ba­ ruch has confided to friends that he is much opposed to having chair­ manship of the atomic commission rotate each month. This means that Australian Foreign. Minister Her­ bert Evatt, United Nations dynamo, now steps down as chairman,;! The Australian is about the only member of the atomic commission who has Soviet Envoy ,Gromyko afraid of him. The other, day Gro­ myko opposed a decision by ma­ jority ride, prbposing a two-thirds ,vote instead. Evatt was on the Rus- ' sian in a flash. ‘It’s ^not necessarily true, Mr. Gromyko, that the majority is al­ ways wrong," rebuked the Austra­ lian. On another occasion, Gromy­ ko was protesting against the Baruch plan. Instead he pro­ posed immediate destruction ofall existing atomic bombs and release of the atomic bomb se­ cret by the U. S. When Bernie Baruch, listening through his ear phone, heard this he became almost apoplectic. But before Baruch could Speak, Evatt took on the Russian again. “You know, Mr.' Gromyko," said Evatt, "not all the parliaments in the world would approve all the proposals that you make here. If they did, it would be a different world.” • * * NO CONGRESSMAN IS GUILTY The case of Andrew Jackson May and his backstage wire-pulling for war profiteers illustrates two defects in our politico-congressional syste.n which sooner or later must be cured. I. The alm ost-life-or-death power of the chairman of any congressional committee over executive branches of the gov­ ernment. ' 2. The fact that certain con­ gressional districts are so dom­ inated by political bosses that no matter what a man does in Washington he can’t be defeat­ ed for reelection at home. Congressman. May comes from a district in the KentucIfy mountains, many of; whose people now regard him as something of a hero. They believe that Jack May can do no wrong.-' Prior to May’s incumbency his district sent a Republican, John Langley, to congress. He landed in jail for bootlegging. But even after he had been convicted, Lang, ley was re-elected to congress. And when it became clear that Langley could not adequately represent his district while behind bars, his loyal constituents sent bis wife to congress. Actually, the great majority of congressmen are absolutely honest. Misguided and frequently wrong they may be, but most of them are honest. BIKINI AFTERMATH Air Chief General "Toughy” Spaatz is not happy over the air force’s role in the first Bikini test. The bombardier and pilot, who drepped the bomb more than a thousand feet wide of the mark, are in the doghouse permanently. Both will be transferred to> routine as­signments. General - Spaatz feels there is no excuse for their wide miss. . . . The British, cabinet has decided to settle' 250,000 anti-Rus­ sian'members 61f the Polish army in England permanently. * COOKING QUEEN . . . Dorothea Fagnano,. 15, Yonkers, N. Ti, school­ girl, samples some of her own cookies foilowingiher selection as cook­ ing queen. She disclosed that she now is working on a new recipe for making bread without flour—a tall order for a teen-ager, but not too hard for Dorothea, who recently captured first prize in a competition which attracted entrants from 512 cities. Miss Fagnano is experiment­ ing with potato flour as a basic ingredient for her new flourless bread. AQUAPLANE STAR SPILLS . . . Fred Kerwin races for a fall In trial run during preparation for the National Aquaplane races to be held off the California coast along Hermosa and Manhattan beaches the middle of August. Aquaplane races were largely discontinued dur­ing the war., Many returned servicemen acquired the art in Pacifie waters and promise to give strong competition in the sport. It has been estimated that several thousand will compete In aquaplane races In various parts of the United States during 1946.frsjrtrj -T --- S t BIG BOYCOTT GETS UNDER WAY . . . Hot as the weather is, Lorraine Anders qn, 2, and Richard Kratzenberg, IY2, turn indignant cold shoulders to the rise from five to seven cents in the price of ice cream cones.

Mom—What do you mean, Henry? - P op-I mean our daughter. I just got a gander at her down the street. She’s rigged out like a refugee from war-torn Europel Mom—Oh, you mehn those knock­ about clothes! Pop—I, mean she’s wearing over­ alls and a man’s shirt . . . and the shirt outside the pants! Mom—Girls will be girls, my dear. . Pop-Okay by me but they wanna be boys! Why this costume that would indicate she just fled from a fire without time to get her right clothes? Mom—It’s just a new summer fad, darling. The kids like to be com­ fortable and cool. Pop—Since when were men’s overalls regarded as the symbol of comfort and coolness? Mom — Jumpers, not overfills, dear. . Pop-They look more like men’s overalls than men’s overalls do. And why the shirt-tails outside, that’s what I wanna know? Mom—Oh, d°n’t take it so seri­ ously. AU the young girls are dress­ ing that way. Pop—What for? What’s wrong with the idea of a girl looking sweet and dainty? Whatis so awful about her looking a little feminine? M om -I think the kids today look rather cute. Pop—Bah! If Prunella is cute in those slop-ins and man’s oversized shirt, so is the Witch of Windsor. She . had three kids with her all dressed the same. They look to me as if they were waiting for a broom- ride. Where do they get these screwball ideas? Mom—You’re being old-fashioned. I don’t know why Prunella wears her shirttail outside but it prob­ ably is just a reflection of the de­ sire to be unconventional, unfet­ tered, free. Pop-Bilge water) I say it’s just a sloppy custom that makes a girl look like a character out of the dressing room- of the Marx Broth­ ers, a sort of belle of the rummage sale, and I’m giving my ultimatum.Mom—UltimE^um? Pop—Yeah! Get my daughter back into female attire! And be­ fore somebody, names her Miss Hobo for 1946. • • • VANISHING AMERICANISMS mAll yott can eat for SO Centslm ’ • uTry out beef pie^30 cents!" - "Today’s Special: Planked Steak." *Concert, boat races, baseball game, dance and sheepbake, SlJiO per -person, beer free*♦ "W t make you a suit /or f50 with extra I p a n lJ H I1 B a c k H o m e S tu ff WINNING WINDUP . . .

Eyes still as keen •s his raxon-wit, George Bernard Shaw, greatest figure in English literature today, looks out at the topsy-turvy world at the age of 90. He keeps Us thoughts ,to himself— sometimes. Perry’s boat house and clam bar is no more. . . .• For over half a century it stood at the old iron bridge across Indian Creek on the winding road along the Connecticut shore, a landmark to young and old. . . . D. B. Perry started it as a young man, built his house on the water’s edge and raised his family there, renting boats, selling bait and fish and dishing out clams on the half shell with a flavor of chestnuts. . . . He closed the clam bar in the shack with the quaint iron stove in the center several seasons\ago much to the regret of natives anfl tourists. . . . Only one , son, Ernie, remained to run things, and with “D. B." ailing, it was decided last week to sell the boats and wind ■ up the business.. . . Now there isn’t a boat at the landing and it seems strangely unreal. . . .^No more will the sign that seemed to us to represent the acme of individual en­ terprise and success be seen there around October I, “Closed for Busi­ ness Until Next April.” . * » • ‘NIGHT AND DAY’ A new movie "Night and Day” tells the life story of Cole Porter.

Atk your neifhoor/ / d l l e i y - mm Politics Makes Strange, Etc, Peculiar deals involving congres­ sional war profiteering revive simi­ lar shenanigans by legislators in the past. About a century ago a group of business men borrowed $200,000 and incorporated the Central Pacific railroad. Then they used the 200Gs to bribe congressmen to steal rail­ road franchises. The 200Gs eventu­ ally secured land grants for 9,000,- 000 acres and a federal loan of $27,000,000! The swindlers became rich and powerful railroad owners without investing a penny of Uteir own money! The Tweed Ring was the most corrupt gang that ever afflicted New York. Boss Tweed filched millions via bribery and legalistic hocus-pocus—untQ he was finally put behind bars. But Tweed beat the rap many times. After one grand jury failed to dig up enough evidence to indict Tweed, an edito­ rialist wrote that it reminded him of the man who had been discovered dead and the jury was puzzled as to what caused his death. The jury finally issued Uiis re­ port: "It was an act of God under very suspicious circumstances.” Capitol HiU now is burdened with too many demagogues.. But the current batch aren't gifted with Huey Long's evil talent. He was a wily rat. . . . A reporter once saw a page from a Huey Long ad­ dress. Various instructions were penciled in the margins. Such as ‘‘pause here,” and “use angry fist gesture,” etc. At the end of one long paragraph, the following was scribbled in capi­ tal letters: “Argument weak here. Yell like hell!” One machine in the East doesn't miss a vote-getting trick. The boss sends toys to children of voters. He uses expensive chauffeured cars to bring voters to the polls. And on Election day he sends nurses to take care of tots while mothers vote. No one ever has estimated how much money grafting officials have filched. But the sum reaches astro­ nomical figures. One fact will give you a faint idea of the rooking, that the public has taken—and still is taking. When Tammany was rid­ ing high its take during one year was $75,000,000. The influence of corrupt political bosses on national affairs cannot be overestimated. Many lawmakers are merely errand boys for local ward heelers. A reporter recently snapped: “This is truly a mechan­ ical age. Even public officials are frequently machine made.” AU is fair in love, war and poli­ tics. Sen. George Norris’ poUtical opponents once persuaded a grocer named George Norris to entei; the primary against the U. S. senator. The Big Idea was to confuse voters by having similar names on the bal­ lots. But the scheme was called off when it was . spotlighted by the press. , Maik Twain used his pungent pen to attack the shady sphemes of Tam­ many. The death of a Tammany leader inspired one of Twain’s famed quips: “I refused to attend his funeral. But I wrote a very nice letter explaining that I approved of it!” New York Side-Show: He started working for a Wall Streeter nearly a year ago.. . .

RELEASE *BE STORY THUS FAR. -lAUcia Steveasoa has been mattered!” The etery was ill over Pleasant Grove In minutes. Aate in the afternoon Som stopped by to get milk, and they talked about Alicia's death. Heg was upset, and Involuntarily Tom put his arms . around her and called her “darling.” That evening Meg and her lather sat lookiug at each other, each remember­ ing that the other was out late the night before. “Did you do It?” she finally asked. “No—did you?” She was stunned. Jlm HaeTavish suggested they make a bargain: “You target that I was out of the house—I'll forget you were trystlng with Tom Fallon.” a hot tide of crim­ son covered Meg. CffIAPTER X3 She caught her breath and could not believe she had spoken, though the words seemed to quiver in let­ ters of Are between them. Her fa­ ther stiffened with a little jerk. His face was white and hard and his eyes were veiled, so that she could not guess his thoughts. For a moment'that seemed a cen­ tury long his eyes met hers, and then he said very softly, “No, my dear—did you?” “Father!” It was a shocked, in- credulus gasp that came scarcely above her breath. “How—how can you even—think—” Her father lifted his shoulders in a gesture that was not quite a shrug and drawled coolly, -."Why not? You seemed perfectly willing to believe I had!” “Oh,- no, Dad.” In that breathless moment the endearing diminutive came easily from her tongue. “I didn't think you had—I couldn't ever believe you had—” • “Yet you put the question very easily,” he reminded her dryly. “It—it was only that I heard you come in last night—a littie after one—” “A few minutes after you came in, if I remember," said her father calmly, his eyes never leaving her white, ravaged face. ' “Suppose we make a bargain, my dear Megan.” Her father’s voice came softly, low-pitched, scarcely above a whisper, in the tone of one conspirator to another. “A — a bargain, Father?” she managed faintly. He nodded. “You forget that I was out of the house—I’ll forget that you were—er—try sting with Tom FaIIon on the Ridge,” he said in that gen­tle, yet somehow terrifying drawl. A hot tide of crimson poured over her face and reached from the collar of her neat cotton print frock to the very, roots of her hair. “I wasn’t—try sting with Tom Fal­ lon!” Her mouth twisted, with dis­ taste at the thought, and the impli­cation. “But you did meet him there—” “Purely by accident!” she flashed. Her father smiled thinly. “I be­ lieve you, my dear—though I am a little doubtful as to whether otter people would, if it ever became nec­ essary for otter people to know of that—er—accidental meeting.” She put her face in her hands for a moment and her fatter watched her with a curious tensity. “But, of course, I can see no rea­ son why anyone save the two of us should know anything about it,” he went on smoothly. “Surely if my daughter and I wish to go for a walk in the' fresh night air, it is no­ body’s business but our own. Un­ fortunately, in a murder investiga­ tion a great many seemingly unre­ lated facts come out. Of course, there’s no likelihood that we should be in any way connected with this terrible affair. Neither of us had any motive to want Alicia outof the way—that is, I had none. I hoped to marry her!” " She stared at him, caught by some odd note- in his voice. And after a moment he answered the look in her eyes, “Of course if it should become known that you were violently op­posed to me marrying her, that you resented the thought of having her here in the house, and had been un­ able to persuade me to give up my plans to marry her—well—” Once again he lifted bis shoulders in that gesture that was not quite a shrug, .but that Was an effective dismissed. Megan drew a long, hard breath. “You know I couldn’t possibly have—” She set her breath against the sob that clutched at her throat. .“Of course, my dear—I know that you are completely incapable of any such deed of violence!” her fatter assured her,' and there ,was3 a warmth that was very close to ten­ derness in his voice. “But it won’t be what I know that will count, Me­ gan—it will, be what we can prove —or disprove!” x He let her sit huddled in a heap for a moment as though to think ,that over. And then he said quiet-. Iy, “That’s why I say there is no reason why, anyone should be told that you and I were out of the house —though, unfortunately, not togeth­ er—for several hours last night!” “Whom did you think I’d be likely to tell?” she asked him huskily, after a moment in which she fought to pull herself together so that speech was at all possible. “There will be an inquest, of course,” he reminded her. “Un­ doubtedly we, as . her closest neigh­ bors—and I suppose her closest ac­quaintances—will be ,called to testi­ ly. And if we simply say^that we went to Iwd a little after ten-;” “But that’s perjury,” she whis­ pered faintly. Her father’s face darkened an­ grily. “Don’t be an idiot! You did not ltill her. Neither did I. So what possible difference can it make—if nobody knows that we went for a walk? I’m absolutely positive that I wasn’t seen; I feel equally sure you were not. So where’s the harm' if we protect ourselves in a situa­ tion that could easily become very unpleasant?” She hesitated and he said quietly, “Because, Megan, if it becomes known that you and I were not in bed and asleep—that you were out on the Ridge with Fallon—it’s not only going to be extremely unpleas­ ant for you, bui it’s going to finish him, once and for 'all. He’ll never be able to get another job as a teacher no matter how innocent and accidental your meeting was. Peo­ ple will remember Alicia’s littie thrust about your spending “hours together on the Ridge,’ .and people are good at adding two and twp>and getting six or seven." Megan said quietly, ’"Where, were you, Fatter?” “ ’Sense me, suh—but could I talk to yo’—fo' a few minutes?” He sat very still for a moment, his eyes clinging to hers, and she thought he scarcely seemed to breathe. And then he said casually, "I went for a walk.” And as proof that he had had his say on the subject and no intention of speaking again, he got up and left the room. She couldn’t believe that her fa­ther had killed Alicia Stevenson. It was an incredible thought; ■ but he had been out of the house, and he was very anxious that no one ’should know about that. And she thought of herself and Tom Fallon, on the Ridge. - And then she' remembered bis face tonight and the tone of his voice when that littie word “darling” had slipped out —the look in his eyes, naked and poignant and un­ashamed, the warmth and tender­ ness in his shaken voice that , had been like a shining garment wrapped about her chilled body. “Oh, no—no—I won’t have it like that! I won’t be in love with him—I won’t!” she wailed, deep in her frightened, stricken mind. But her heart went relentlessly on, “You can’t help it! You can’t stop it: You didn’t ask for it—but you can never deny it! He knows it, too— he feels as you do—you saw it in his eyes, heard it in his voice tonight. Yon love him and he loves you—and he has a wife who has a greater claim oh him than if there were children. Your love, can never, nev­ er mean anything except heartbreak and self-denial! You know that— but you can’t stop loving him! Any more than you can stop breathing!” The inquest was held the following aftemoanin the rickety, nondescript littie frame building where the Draft Board met, and it seemed that, ex­ cept for the few bedridden in the town, everybody was therel Everybody, that is, except Megan and her father. For contrary to Jim’s uneasy fear, neither he nor Megan had been called to appear. Littie Betty Hendrix, Bill Logan, Mrs. Stuart, and a few,of the others who had been first on the scene'had been called. Megan did not quite know whether to be more relieved, or more frightened that neither she nor her father had received orders to appear. But she bad flrznly declined Mrs.’ Stuart’s hearty invi­ tation that she go, anyway;' Megan made herself keep busy throughout a day that seemed age­ long. When Annie put midday din­ ner beside Megan and asked, a faint uneasiness in her-voice, “Miss Meg- {tie, is Mist’ Larry cornin’ tomorrow night?” . . ' • ‘ ' .. , ■ ' “I suppose so, Annie," Megan, an­ swered, and Quivered a littie inside at the thought of facing Laurence with the thing that was in her heart; the thing that had been there—who could say how long?—but whose presence she had not discovered un­ til under the ShockvQf Alicia’s death. “I like to talk to him, Miss Meggie —ef yo' thuik he ain’ cornin’ any­ how, how ’bout yo’ calling him up and askin’ him to? So I could talk to him?” Annie was grave-eyed add portentous. Megan, jerked out of her unhappy abstraction by Annie’s tone, looked up at her curiously. “Why, Annie, what’s wrong? Why do you want to talk to Mr. Larry?” she asked, puzzled. Annie drew herself up. a littie and there was a gentle, yet implacable dignity about her as she said firmly, “It’s a private matieh, Miss Meggie —but it’s powahful important. Yo’ call him fo’ me?” “Yes, of course, Annie,” Megan answered and Aimie thanked her and went out Of the room, padding softly in the heelless felt slippers- that she wore to “ease” her .feet. . But Megan did not have to call Laurence, for at about four o’clock he came down the road and turned in at the gate grinning at her warmly and happily. “I came over with the coroner and some of the county officers,” he told her cheerfully, dropping down on the steps at her feet and baring his head to the soft wind. “Pleasant Grove's certainly getting her name in the papers. There was a newspaper correspondent for one of the Atianta papers, at the inquest.” Megan asked, after a moment, “What—whabdid the inquest find—” "DeatTby means of a sharp in­ strument at the hands of a party or parties unknown," answered Lau­rence, looking up at her white, drawn face with surprise. “Oh look here, darling, I had no idea you were such a close friend of hers.” “I—wasn’t, really," admitted Me­ gan. “But—I knew her and—ft’s been a shock—” “Of course," said Larry gently. He took her hand in his and held it closely. “We won’t talk about it—” “Yes!” said Megan ts> sharply that Laurence turned surprised eyes upon -her. Megan managed a faint smile and said, “I—I really want to know—whatever they could learn—’’ “Well, it wasn’t much," said Lau­ rence. “No trace of the weapon, a knife or h dagger of some sort. No trace of robbery or anything of that kind. The girl at the bank said she had cashed her usual monthly in­ come check for fifty dollars, a few days ago, and her purse was found with more than thirty dollars in it. They feel sure that if she had sur­ prised a burglar at work, he would not have left the purse. They be­ lieve that she was Mlled by someone she knew—or at least, someone she was not afraid of. There were-no signs of a struggle in the place.” Megan sat very still, her hands locked tightly in her lap. Killed by someone she knew! Someone she was not afraid of! "There was one sensation,” said Laurence after a moment, not look; ing at Megan. His eyes were on the garden, where, despite the fact that it was almost .Christmas, a few late zinnias and marigolds were still In bloom and the chrysanthemums were great shaggy things of glowing beauty. “That was when the tele­ gram from her husband arrived—” “Her—husbandf’ she repeated in­ credulously. - Laurence nodded. “That seemed as much of a shock to everybody there as it is to you,” he told her. "But it seems that when the detec­ tives were going through her papers yesterday they found that she had a husband and that he was the one who was sending her fifty dollars a month. They wired him and the answer was brought to the inquest this afternoon. The husband is somewhere in the west, but he’s fly­ ing east to claim the body. Should be here tomorrow or next day, they thought.” I “But she was a widow!” Megan protested, dazedly. . “Apparently not,” said Laurence, IooMng- up- as Annie appeared be­ hind the screen door that led into the hall. “Hello, Annie—bow about putting another plate on the table and letting me stay for supper?” "Yesrah, Mist’ Larry—us sho’ be glad to,'” she assured him, beaming, and then asked uneasily, “ 'Scuse me, suh—but could I talk to yo’—fo’ a few minutes?" Laurende looked surprised, but got to his feet. ' “Of course, Annie—don’t tell me you want to divorce Amos, after, all these years!” he laughed, excusing; himself to. Megan ** he moved to­ wards the screen d*>r which -Annie held' open for him, “I ain't suabv MMf1 Larry, dat I ain’t gwine gtt rid tf dat shifless, no’-count nigger, -sho’ nuffl": she as­ sured him darkly as she ledthe.way ' to the Mtchen.- . Megan got up,; from the -chair' where she had bees sitting for more: than an hour. In the la te . after­ noon, the sunlight had been warm and-pleasant here, but with'the com­ ing of dusk, a. chill, littie wind got up and tiptoed through the trees, and'she went into the living room, where she built upthe fire, making it brisk and cheerful. - (TO BK CONUNCED) /V IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY ICHOOL Uesson By-HAROLD L.

JESUS AND YHE SACREDNESS OF HUMAN U FE LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:19; Matthew •5:21*24; 10:29*31: 18:10*14.MEMORY SELECTION—But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be In danger ot the judgment—Matthew 5:22. Human life is sacred, and that is not. primarily because of any law of man, but because God created .man in his own likeness and image. Since that is true, no man has any right to take the life of another for any cause except at the direct command of God. Only by the orderly process of law for toe-pro­ tection of society and in accordance with the Word of God may there, be any such action by man^ toward man. Both of these truths are declared is Scripture in God’s covenant with Noah (Gen. 9:5, 6), which was made possibly a thousand years before the. Ten' Commandments were given to Moses. I. The PrnMbitlaa of Mnxder (Exod. 20:13). The word “Mil” in this command­ ment is one which means a violent and unauthorized taking of life, and is therefore more properly translat­ ed “murder.” Not all killing is murder. A man may Mil another Aitirely accidental­ ly, or he may be the duly con­ stituted legal officer carrying Out the law of the land in taking the life of one who has forfeited his right to live because he has slain, another. There is also the right of self-de­ fense, be it individual or collective as in war. But these are the only exceptions; let us -not attempt to justify any otter. - Murder is more prevalent than most of us suppose. In 1944 there was a murder every fifty minutes in our land. Do not forget the deaths, the de­ struction of Ufe, by avoidable auto­mobile accidents. Some of these were redlly murder because the one responsible drove with defec­ tive brakes, dangerous tires, or while he was intoxicated. Add to these the deaths in industry caused by failure to provide proper safe­ guards or healthy working condi­ tions, and by the exploitation of child labor, and we say (hat. we should cry aloud, “Thou shalt do no murder." H. The Pxovoeation to Mnrder (Matt. 5:21, 22). Murder finds its provoking cause in the heart of man. Our Lord was concerned about correcting the de­ sires ratter than to apprehend the offender, after the act had been committed. It is the better, way, and the more effective one. In this matter of murder, Jesus cut right through the outward as­ pects of the matter and pointed oiit that an angry hatred In the-heart is the root of all murder. HKwe hate, we have murder in our hearts. Circumstances may hinder its ful­ fillment, but the danger is always there until we remove the cause. May God help those of us who have strong feelings that we may not yield them to the devil in such anger against our brother! III. The Prevention of Mnxder (Matt. 5:23, 24; 10^9-31; 18:10-14). Prevention with God means more than putting up a barrier to try to keep men from killing one another. He deals with the heart of man, and when that is right the~whole life will be right. There must be I. A Right View of Self (Matt. 5: 23, 24). Wejmust learn by prayer and humility of heart to suffer at the hands of otters, to keep peace, to seek our brother’s welfare. Note that it is not even a question of how we may feel against our brother. If belm saughtagainstus we are to do all we can to win him. We who believe in Oirist are to be in deed as well as word the children of our heavenly Father (Matt.. 5:45), loving not only:those who are kind to us but also our ene­ mies: ' _ -2. A Right Vigw of God (Matt. ,10.-29-31). He who knows when a -yarrow falls to the ground, is con­ cerned about the smallest detail of. tfur lives, No man can lay hands 'Cf violence on another man - with­ out having to reckon with God-about his misdeeds. Our God.is not afar off and too concerned with eternal affairs to-be interested in. the sufferings of the individual. He is here now, and we should count him Intoi every rela­ tionship of life. 3.' A Right View of Man (Matt. 18:10-14).; Even the/little ones, ap­ parently defenseless and at the mercy of'a cruel world, hdve guard­ ian angels who Jiave access to the throne of God. He. has' a special interest in the lost mid rejoices in toe rescue of the one who has strayed, m we see that even those whom the world regards as weak and unimportant are in the mind of- God tor good. He watches over them. The man' who sees himself tor what he is, and who realizes what God thinks of man, will find that he agrees- with toe command of God, “Thou shalt not kill.” C L A S S I F I E D DEPARTMENT BUILDING MATERIALS CO NCRETE BLOCK A N D BRICK M ACH INERY Three men can make LOOP block* per day.

Most varieties of pears should be« ■ taken from the tree when they have finished growing and kept in a cool place until they are ripe enough to serve raw. At this stage they are tender and juicy but not mellow. It pays to take time to sort fruit so that pieces of about the same size and color can be kept together. Then the pie or fruit-cup pieces won’t be mixed with those intend­ ed for fancy looking desserts. Ev­ ery piece of fruit should be washed' carefully and drained well before the skin is broken. Skins should be removed from peaches, pears and and apricots. Yes, the skin can be left on but it is impossible to have both skins and top quality. Stones may be left" in peaches and ripe apricots, not that we understand why anybody would want them, but woe-is more than likely to be the lot of the home canner who leaves stones in apricots which have been taken from the tree before fully ripe. Such apricots have a poor fla­ vor at best and the green stones make it even poorer. But we are going too fasti Let’s remember that flavor is lost with every minute lost between the time the fruit is washed and the time it is put into the canner for process­ing. Therefore, all jars, caps, lids, and rubbers should be checked, washed, rinsed, covered with water and put over heat to sterilize; water should also be put to heat in whatever is used as a water bath canner, and all utensils and ma­ terials collected before work is started on preparing the fruit. Com Sirup for Sweetening The sweetening story is still a little on the sour side. It can be no news to you that it may not be pos­ sible to buy all the granulated sugar you would like to have, but short­ age of the cane and beet sugars need not halt your fruit canning pro­ gram because corn sirup can take over where these granulated sugars leave off, and a lot of people think the fruit better when com sirup helps out. Gladys Kimbrough, Home Service Director for Bali Brothers Company and editor of the famous Ball Blue Book of Home Canning and Preserving Recipes, gives a basic sirup recipe which may be adjusted to meet your re­ quirements. The sirup is made by combining two cups sugar, one cup standard grade com sirup, one cup water or fruit juice, and boiling about two minutes or until the sugar dis­ solves. Either light or dark com sirup may be used. The dark sirup is especially good with dark fruits. Its flavor blends nicely with light fruits too, but it tends to add color where color may not be wanted. Miss Kimbrough recommends that, when possible, some sugar be used when putting up fruit because the flavor of sweetened fruit is more acceptable to most persons but she also' makes it quite clear that fruit will keep without sugar. When no sugar is used, the fruit should be heated In a little water or in its own juice before it is put into die jars. Whether canned with or with­ out sugar, fruit should be covered with liquid in' the jar, otherwise it is likely to discolor. Miss Kimbrough advises home canners to sweeten and flavor simps to suit themselves. If you would like more flavor in your peaches or -PltMa Cm ttttr BtIl Btot. Co. pears, you might try adding a half teaspoon vanilla or orange, or nut­ meg, or rum, or a few drops of almond extract to each quart of fruit. In other words, you are free to make the things you put up at home taste like you want them to taste and ,that is something nobody else will or can do for you. Up-to-date canners heat fruit enough to shrink it before it is placed in the jars for processing by boiling in a hot water bath can­ ner. This is called hot packing. The fruit may be heated in its own-juice or in sirup. One excellent way is to measure the prepared fruit, add the sugar to it, and heat gently until the juice runs free and the sugar is dissolved. Two cups sugar and one cup com sirup will sweeten a gallon of prepared peaches enough to suit the average taste. If the peaches are juicy, no water need be added. Pears can usually get along with a little less sugar than peaches call for but they nearly always need some water to start them cooking. Processing time varies according to .the size, variety, and firmness of fruit but the average time for peaches, pears, and apricots, which have been thoroughly heated before packing, is fifteen minutes at boil­ ing. Even if fruits keep, they will discolor if for any reason they have not been heated boiling hot all the way through. If you will begin with good homo canned fruits, you can end with won­ derful desserts which are just no bother at all to make. For example, Peaches and Cream Cake is a fit­ ting finish for any meal. All you do' is make or buy a plain angel food or sponge cake, frost it thick with sweetened whipped cream and surround it with halves of free- ripened free-stone peaches right out of your own jars. This cake should be served at the table because it is far too handsome to be cut in the kitchen. FOR SOUP AS YOU UKE IT-HOME CAN IT!

Naturally those standards should be high, furthermore the taste preferences of those jwho share the food must be considered. Take the matter of soup. Once you get the habit of using your own brand , prepared and seasoned as you like it, you will never want any other. Nothing quite takes the place of a really wonderful home-made 'veg­ etable soup. Our favorite recipe for canning it contains no cabbage, no turnip, no onion, because we are nirA GX Joe—we don’t like THAT canned soup taste- and odor. But if that’s what yod like; .put the'cab­ bage in, turnips too, but K they go in, other .things might ay well stay out because these strong vegeta­ bles overpower all the more delicate flavors. However, a slice or two of onion added when the soup is put on to heat for about fifteen minutes for serving, gives a fresh out-of-the-gar- den flavor. The Vegetable Mixture may -be thinned with milk or water before heated for serving, but is much better when thinned with meat stock or broth. Vegetable soup gets along all_right without garnish, but if it is W be the mainstay of a lunch or supper, you might like a piece of toast covered with grated cheese floating in each bowl. Crackers or bread sticks are usually served with vegetable soup but 'our choice is midget com pones, about , two inches long, crusty and hot. Gladys Kimbrough, editor of the famous Ball Blue Book of canning —Bbtto Ctmtttr Btll Bros. Co. and preservation rceipes, gave us her favorite recipe fo r' vegetable soup. It is: 8 .quarts chopped tomatoes 2 quarts sliced okra or - 2 quarts small green lima' beans 2 quarts com 2 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons salt Cook tomatoes until soft, then press through sieve to remove skin and seed. Add other ingredients and cook until thick. Pour into hot jars. Process'60 minutes at 10. pounds pressure. — "Odds and Ends” Usable Miss Kimbrough also told us that many people Iilw to put “all the odds and ends” they can find in the garden in the soup, and She thinVg that's all right if that's the way one wants it. It seems that all you do is; prepare the vegetables and bod them live or ten minutes with water to cover or with tomatdbs which have. been skinned and chopped. Season with salt and pepper. Pour boiling hot into hot jars. Process for the time required for the vege­ table (in the soup) requiring longest processing time. Uncle Sam Says Millions of you await your newspa­ per boy every day.

Perhaps the most outstanding plan of the devil, in order to wreck the lives of men and damn their sonls in hell forever, is that of de­ ception. When Eve sinned in the garden of Eden it was because the devil deceived her. "And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said. The serpent be­ guiled me, and I did eat. (Gen. 3 :13). Begnile means to deceive, cheat or mislead. Tbe devil de. ceived Eve, misled her to partake of the forbiddan fruit and cheated her ont of her wonderfal, marvel ous, glorious place in the garden of Eden bringing upon her and Adam, and all their posterity -a. cross the centuries of time, heart­ ache, suffering, misfo.tune, disap- pointmen . hardshiD. sorrow, trow ble and deatn. Not only that, but through the deception of the devil, men have lost tbeir precions souls by unknown millions and billions. His plan of deception has worked ever since Eve’s day, and it is wor­ king on the Iargast scale . today, perhaps, the world has ever known. How the devil is deceiving the human family now! This decep­ tion goes on in so manv ways. He seems to have a special pick on the yonth of today. , The vast major­ ity are under his control. One of the main canses of the sinfulness and wickedness of millions of onr youth is bad companionships. This has become common, so common, until our young people can run with almost anybody whose charac­ ter is spotted and feet at ease. They lock arms with the adulterer, the adulteress, the cigarette (lend, the beer drinker, the liquor drinker, the libertine, the curser, the swear er, the dishonest, the fwearer, the reader of bad'books and sorry lit. e-arure, the drunkard and the cri­ minal, etc,, and feel at ease. Birds of a feather flock together. The devil makes them believe, in order to enjoy life and have a good time, they must keep compaay with the sinfni, wicked, worldly, rowdy, proud, ntean, thoughtless, careless and godless. He also makes them believe there is no harm iu any­ thing that the masses are doing. God pity orir young people. Yes, God pity all who are deceived .bv the devil “ Be not deceived: evil sompan- ionships corrupt good morals," someone has said in a recent trans lation of this text, or has interpre­ ted it as meaning this. Certainly evil companions, nr evil company, corrupt gool morals, No one can have good morals and run with bad company. If one’s morals were good when he started in with bad companions be is soon pulled down to their levei. This is absolutely true. Good For Mrs. Taft President Trum an's severe at­ tack on Senator Robert A. T aft— he mentioned the Ohio senator 17 wtimes in the veto of the original OPA extension bill —has been at. (titrated to a witty wisecrack by Mrs. Taft in a speech she made in Philadelphia. ,Mrs. T»ft, who is a very gifted speaker and of the country’s most brilliant women, regaled her list­ eners with a gag that has been go­ ing the round of Washington for some time: "To err is Truman-” But the distaffin remark.which real­ ly irritated Mr Truman was: ' *¥he Democratic party consists of a libeial front, a reactionary rear, and a kn jw nothing in the middle! ’ Uaion Republican Do You Read The Record? Old Swimming Hole Dangerons Now that North ' Carolina has more than sixteen hundred new fish ponds and many more places avail­ able, for swimming than formerly, more thought should be given to the danger of drowning, say the safety experts. More than ninety per cent of the victims are non-swimmers and small children. Principal cansas 0 f drownings, according to the sur­ veys. are lack of knowledge, tnsuf ficient skill, poor judgment, and just plain carelessness. "E ither learn to swim or stay Out-Of the water" is a good rule to follow. Prof. David S. Weaver, agricul­ tural engineer at State College, suggests that if the farm pond is to he the "old smlmmin* hole," the bottom of the pond have a gradual slope with no boles or drop-offs and that it should also be kept free of debris. A fter faoavy rains the bottom of the pond where children and others are to go swimming should be care­ fully examined to see that it is in good condition. Bafety rules say that no person should go into the water when tired, overheated, or immediately after eating. Another good safely rule is "Do not swim alone." Prof. Weaver further' suggests that cisterns and old wells be pto- vided with good covers and that taese covers he kept secure. North Caroliun papers are full of accounts of drownings under all kinds oi conditions, especially on outings and over the week-end. National Safety Week was inaug urated to call the attention of the general public to a ll, types of ac cidents and drownings is up fa ward the head of the list. • c__ Not Only Your Shirt (Shelby Star) We were agreeably snrprised several months ago when a decor-1 ater began to call for empty cotton bolls to use for Christmas decora­ tions. This was one use for the versatile cotton plants on which we bad not counted. We knew that its lint had many and varied uses, that its seed conld be used for man and beast bu' we had just never thought of its ormenting a Ghristmas tree. Now comes another revelation. Johu W. Ticknor, one of the offi­ cers of the National Farm Chem urgic council, has just reported that cotton growers may receive a bonaza in the form of use for cotton stalks which heretofore have been burned or turned under. "H e says there has been developed a method of converting these stalks into kraft paper and newsprint. If things keep gojng this way, some day the shin on your back which King Cotton affords you, may not be his most important con­ tribution to your living which be has al ways .helped ont. Poor Old OPA Tbe mill can never-run with wa ter that' is past. The OPA is sure­ ly realizing the fine meaning of tnose words. Trv as it wilj, it will never operate with rulings and with strength that has once been laid down. Yon can’t Jetract in such things. Better to jnst throw the whole setnp out th e. window and start in from scratch once more. As it is now, some folks think , we are OPAing on this and that,, not on something e'se. Some folks think we are not. OPAing at all, and in the general confusion the poor middle- man is being left with the hag to hold—prices going . up and no recourse anywhere.—Tay- Iorsville Times. Land poters at this office. OPA Incongruity - Now that OPA is fnnctioning a- gain, but must defer to the author ity of a deconttol board intent upon getting production into high gear, perhaps it will eliminate some of the minor irritations that have been harder on the -public patience than the big things like doing without automobiles, refrigerators, and radios. Would it not-be better, for ex? ample, as the Kansas City Star asks, to pay a few cents more a pound for nails than to have no nails at all with which to put to­ gether fhe thousands of houses that the government hopes to see built this vear? The farmers who found them selves anable to get baling wire to bale their hay crop would rather have paid a small increase in price of wire than to have had none be­ cause it could not be manufactured at OPA ceillugs Then, there is the stoey. of the woman who wanted a new switch for her floor lamp, bnt none was to be had, because OPA ceilings were so low that switches could not be manufactured at a profit. So this woman had to buy a new- lamp in order to' get a switch. She would much have preferred to pay five eents more for the switch and keep her old lgtnp. And manv of us have waited and waited and waited for lawnmowers until we face the prospect of mow­ ing the grass wltb the hedge clip­ pers because OPA insists that we mus’. not pay the price at. which lawnmowers can be manufactured at a profit. A man would rather pay a legiti­ mate increase for a lawumower than to go over the lawn with a pair of shears. The new board, composed as it is ot three practical and outstand- ing citizens, will diseover and we hope will be able to correct many of the defects in present OPA rules in a reasonably short time. However theit job is a big one and patience will be required on the part pf the public. We imag­ ine that considerable investigation is called for in every change of price.—Charlotte Observer. Harry Pardons Thieves Twenty-two vote thieves of the old Pendergast machine' in Kansas City have been pardoned bv Presi­ dent Harry’Tmman and the late President' Roosevelt since Febrn- arv, 1 9 4 4 . This is one of the Iar gest deliveries of ballot-box manip­ ulators in American dolitical his­ tory, in the opinion of one well known newsman. , 1 Department of Justice secrecy over the re-enfranchisement of so many ex-aonvicts indicates that Mr Trum an's partisan advisers are deeply concerned over public reac­ tion.'; ^ , The Department of Justice re­ fused any information on the sub ject, maintaining that Federal par. dons are a private matter of inter, est only to the govornment and tbe beneficiaries. The complete' data had to he. obtained from out­ side sources.' The pardons restored the right to vote, to hold office, and to take part In politics. MBaI Prices To Drop A Cleveland, Ohio, dispatch says that meat prices, recently released from Government control, will drop within two months to their lowest level in four years, -President Ad­ am Guth of the National Associa­ tion of Reiail Heat-Dealers, pre­ dicts. G utb, of suburban' Lakewood, said fllied lockers and tbe house­ wife’s own price control system would gradually lower prices Eleanor And Her Dog ' Fala A new story came out of Port­ land, Maine, one day last week that, in a manner, was rather amu-ing. I f it was not so downright foolish it wouid indeed create many a laugh. It had to do with the an. tics of Eleanor Roosevelt—yen will perhaps .remember her as the wife of the late President Franklin Del­ ano Eoosevelt—and her Iiitle, fuz­ zy .black'dog, Fata. • But Fala, w bo1 for some years bad entreeof-the White Honseand perhaps slept in one of the execu. tive bed rooms, was not acceptable as a guest of Portlond’s Hotel East land. So, Eleanor, in a buff, be­ cause Fala could not bave a private or very choice hed room, canceled her reservation, walked out in rather majestic air, and went to a tourist camp where she and Fala slept. Leo G Gaines, an assistant ma­ nager,, said an Eastland clerk ex plained to Mrs. Roosevelt that dogs could not be taken above the lobby, She merely replied, AU right, Gaines said, and left the hotel Mrs. Roosevelt did not bring her dog into the lobby. Gains said, and the hotel did not know that it was Faia. B uttheRoyalR iverC abins, at nearby Yarmouth, said it was tbe late President's black Scottie that stayed there with bis mistress. And that’s the story. Fala is considerably smaller than Blaze, the Elliott Roosevelt dog' that traveled in a plane across the country to Efliott'a actress wife. But Eleanor should rerlize that hotels mast have giound rales.—fix Saving Or Not?

Don’t Blame The South The senseless mob-killing of two Georgia negro couples has under­ standably aroused deep and nation­ wide indignation. A considerable section of the press links the out­ rage witb tbe recent nomination of Eugene Taltnadge to the governor­ ship of the State, and while there Isno direct connection, certainly bis rabble rousing,, aegrobaiting campaign may have stirred savage instincts in the lynch-mob respon­ sible for tbe quadruple murder. There is also a tendency in some quarters—and it sbonld be prompt­ ly and resentfully’opposed—to stig , matize the whole State, even tbe entire Sontb for this terrible mass­ acre perpetrated by a handful of white savages. The majority of Georgians, like folks everywhere, are good, Christian law-abiding people who must look upon tbe cold-blooded, premeditated murders with tbe same abhorrence the act aroused elsuWhere.

H a w a ii E x p e c ts to B e c o m e T h e 4 9 th S ta te in 1947 LT ONOLULU.—Citizens here al- most without exception expect - statehood for Hawaii as the Wth state Ui 1947. They believe they de­ serve it, have earned it, In peace and war, and all factions have com­ posed their differences and are pre­ senting a united front in favor of statehood. Your Hometown Reporter made a trip over the Island of Oahu en route to the atomic bomb tests at Bikini and, in talking to many rep­ resentative citizens, gained at least an over-all picture of how and why all opposition to statehood in the ■ islands has melted away during the war years. Lorrin Thurston, publisher of the HonoIuIn Advertiser and an anti­ statehood advocate until a few years ago, expressed the main fear fn the minds of many citizens over statehood, a fear which has been dissipated. That fear was Jap dom- nation of the Islands dueto-high birth rate among the Japs and their Ekely un-Americanism. The past few years, however, have shown that the Jap population and birth rate rapidly are declining and the war years proved the Japs on the island loyal to the American cause. Not one act of sabotage or any out­ er un-American act was found dur­ ing the years of war. As a matter of fact, the Jap regiments from Honolulu in tee American army were the most decorated regiments to come out of tee war. Another fear was the effect of statehood upon the sugar industry, mainstay of Hawaiian economic Efe. With sugar quotas set for three years, however, heads of the indus­ try have come to feel that they will have a better chance for success in favorable laws pertaining to the industry if they can align them­ selves with the other sugar-growing states of Louisiana, Mississippi and Florida, than by remaining as a territory. Sugar in Hawaii is a 60- million-dollar industry. Next comes the pineapple industry at approxi­ mately 50 million dollars, with tour­ ists rated as the third industry and shipping the fourth. 'A Serious'Drawback One factor may have to be changed if statehood comes to the islands. That is the present land laws. These land laws have Iieen at once a blessing and a curse to the progress and growth of the islands. They are a result of the land grants made by King Kamehameha when he started out to democratize his kingdom and divide the land among tee people. Five per cent of the land was retained as belonging to the king and the royal, family. This land today is in the hands of the Bishop estate, and the rentals and proceeds go to support the schools of the territory. One-third of the lands was given to the various trib­ al chieftains and these lands to­ day make up the large landed es­ tates and can be leased only for a period of 30 years. Another third was set aside as public domain and ’ these lands now are owned by the government of the United States, taken over when Hawaii became a territorial possession. The remain­ ing third was given over to the peo­ ple and it is only this third of the land which can be boughttmd owned m fee simple. Hence no race or group ever can obtain control of the lands, a fact which has up to this time been fortunate, with so large a percentage of tee popula­ tion being Japanese, Chinese, Kore­ an, Portuguese and other national­ ities. But at the same time this situation has prevented any large . influx of white population, since land is at a premium and there can be no large real estate development such as has taken place in this coun­try. LttfZe Farm Land Left T Aiso surprising to this writer is tee fact that there is EtQe acreage left for further agricultural enter­ prise. Our informant declared teat all the land in the islands available for sugar, that is, land from sea Ifevel to about 1,500 feet in eleva­ tion, is planted to sugar; all avail­ able land suitable for pineapples, or about 90 per cent of the world sopply, from 1,500 to 2,800 feet in elevation, is already in pineapples; and the balance of the land above 2,000 feet is inviolate government liand in woodland for water supply. The timber acts as a “blotter.” Water is most important for the growing - of both sugar cane and pineapples, for almost every foot is irrigated from artesian wells. This leaves only small valleys and coast­ al areas for farming, dairying and . ranching and for the cultivation of x fruit, bananas, coffee and other products, including various : vege­ tables and small grains. Popnlation of 'tee islands now. ex­ ceeds 500,000 and tee value of "tee '- real estate and resources exceeds . teat of any. other state.at tee time of admission to the Union with the possible exception ot Oklahoma. Eat With Relish IfYouPtttUp Own Pickles, Chili M ter you wash jars for canning, sterilize teem by pouring hot water to fill, teen empty water from them and set the jars inverted on a clean towel until ready to use. Your family won’t go without those tasty pickles, chili sauces and catsup if you put up your own sup­ plies this sum­ mer and fall. We don’t know what m arket condi­ tions will be for these products during the next year, but if you have your own you won’t be a slave to market condi­ tions. Most caUhing budgets will permit putting up some relishes because as a general rule, they do not require too much In the way of sweeten­ ing. If these rehipes prove too gen­ erous in quantity, cut them in halves or quarters and follow in­ structions. I’m including old favorites In pickles and reUshes which I’m sure wiU add much to your personal eat­ ing pleasure during the winter. It’s easy to make pickles because they have enough vinegar and spices so .that you will not have to worry too much about spoilage. Now, let’s get the jars ready and make plans for canning on the next fairly cool day that comes along. I know you’ll want a good supply of these two favorite pickles for next winter: Bread and Bntter Pickles, 25 large encumbers 12 onions, sliced K cup salt Place cucumbers in cold water and let stand until crisp.

Before attempting to clean dust the wallpaper thoroughly, then use the cleaner according to di­ rections. Clean a strip at the baseboard first, then clean up­ wards with smooth, even strokes. Repeat the. process, starting with­ in the -clean strip "every time. When finished, brush the walls to remove crumbs that may have accumulated. WaOhable wallpapers may be cleaned by dusting the walls thor­ oughly, then washing In frothy suds made with a mUd soap and water. Apply this with a sponger Rinse, thoroughly with another sponge dipped in dear, cold wa­ ter. Crayon marks, grease .spots and smudges may be washed off with mild soapy suds, with a sponge.

SelfrEntploymertt Approximately. 360,000 veterans have received more than $118,000,- 000 in readjustment allowances for self-employment under provisions of the G.I. bill as of the end of th« fiscal year June 30, the Veterans administration has announced. These self - employed veterans were engaged in farming, inde­ pendent businesses or in trades or professions. The vast majority of such veterans are engaged in agri­ cultural activities and the remain­ ing enterprises vary from operation of a shoe repair establishment to the practice of medicine or law, TTiese allowances are avaEable to veterans engaged in full-time self- employment for profit, and if their net earnings for a given month are less than $100, they are paid the difference between the net earnings and $100. The period for which a veteran is entitled to aUowances de­ pends upon his length of service in the armed forces, the maximum be­ ing 10% months if the veteran has over- 9% months of service to his credit. Qaettions and Answers Q. My sou has been in tee army almost 4 years, spending 31 months overseas. He eame back : to the states in February, 1949, suffering from a bad mental condition. He is now in jail charged with burglary. MUitary authorities won’t act on the civil laws. He has em­ ployed a lawyer and asked for a doctor to check him over. He pled guilty at the preliminary hearing. He has enlisted back in the army for three more years. His bond is $750, but he is unable to furnish bon'd and must remain In jaU until superior court meets In August. He is my sole support. My father is 115 years old. I am 56 and in poor health unable to work. He made an allotment for support. WiU it stop while he is in prison? Where can 1 apply for help for my son? —. H. N.,. Columbus, Ga. A. I am afraid I cannot give you much help. Your son’s -. attorney should know what is best for him to do. The army says that while a serviceman is in the hands of the civE authorities he is considered away without leave. After three months all aUowances are can­ celled. Should he be convicted, he WiU be discharged from the army. Q. I was in the army 19 months and want to get some information about my discharge, since it is a Section 8. How can I- go about get­ ting the $20 a week as I have been out of employment most of the time and tee discharge keeps me from getting any decent jobs?—J. F. W., Harrisburg, Mo. A. Section 8 of the basic army regulations covers a multitude of sins and discharge under that sec­ tion is neither honorable nor dis­ honorable. If you received a “blue” discharge would suggest that you write to the office of the adjutant general, war department, Washing­ ton 25, D. C., and ask for a review of your discharge. Or you may ap­ ply to the nearest office of the Vet­ erans administration and explain to- them under what conditions you were discharged and they might waive the discharge since it was made at the convenience of the gov­ ernment. Q. I am a World War H veteran discharged* with service-connected disability and am drawing 100 per cent compensation. I am receiving medical care from my local doc­tor. 'Are my wife and daughter also entitled to medical care?—C. B. B., Arab, Ala. A. No. Q. How may one go about getting alimony from a veteran who is on retirement pay when she is not sure of his whereabouts? Must she have an attorney, and take it to Court or can it be settled out at court?— Mrs. L . P., Chattanooga, Tenn. A. This man is a civilian, out of the army, if he is a veteran and this is a legal case, so advise you com suit an attorney. Q. I was a widow of a Spanish ■war veteran and I remarried. Could I receive my pension back again if I were to divorce the man I am married to?— B. P., East Peoria, Bi. A. No. The law says that the pension right of a widow is termi­ nated upon her remarriage and such right may not be revived. Q. M y son, a captain, was killed in action. He was a fighter pilot and was our main support and al- loted part el his pay to us. I want to inquire if . we would be eligible for a pension.—M. K., Wheatland, Wyo, A. Bote you and your husband are surely entitied to a pension if you were dependent upon your son. Suggest that you apply immediate­ ly to the Veterans administration sub-regional office at 1720 Carey avenue, Cheyenne, Wyo., and am sure that you would be . entitled to $25 each per month.

C. -GI ) OKMW_i SPECTRE OF ANOTHER WAR EN ROUTE TO PARIS. — Under­ way to the palace of Luxemburg is the Conference on which so many mothers set their hearts, for which so many mothers’ sons gave their lives — the conference to win the peace. Some 13,000,000 men in the Amer­ ican armed forces alone fought four long years—with the hope that it might be the last time human be­ ings would have to go through the terrible ordeal of war.In the Paris conference comes the climax of their dreams, and already disillusionment has be­ gun to set in. Already the dreams are tinged with night- , mare — the spectre of another I war. I Here are some of the distressing facts this conference has to face in trying to chart the peace of the world: 1. Historians criticised Woodrow Wilson because he was slow in nego­ tiating peace. But he got started Iwp months after the armistice and finished six months later, a total of eight months after the war. In con­ trast, it is now almost one year after the armistice with Japan and 15 months after the armistice iwith Germany, yet the final peace conference is only getting started. 2. The longer peace is delayed, the more the Allies fall out; the more the other nations forget their gratitude. So the longer the delay, the harder it is to negotiate a permanent peace. 3. Russia deliberately has endeav­ ored to postpone the peace. This conference could have been held long ago if the Soviet had not said no. DELAY TACTICS PLANNED Moscow’s delay tactics were by no means accidental. They were carefully planned, and with three motives behind them: A. The longer peace was delayed the more time Russia, got to nail down its hold on the Balkan satel­ lites — Hungary, Austria. Anti-Rus­ sian factions had to be stamped out; pro-Russian factions trained to carry on. This could not be done overnight. B. The more uncertainty and un­ rest occurred in the non-Soviet-oc­ cupied countries — France, Bel­ gium, the Netherlands — the great­ er the likely growth of Communism. G. Finally, Moscow did not want the Red armies converging back to Russia. There wasn’t food to feed them, and their quick return risked economic, political turnovers. Thus, ever since V-J Day, Russia has been the greatest obstacle to early peace. AMERICANS NOT BLAMELESS In this peace conference, how­ ever, not everything is black or white. There is some gray shading in between. And in real fact, American di­plomacy during the early stages of this greatest of all diplomatic en­ deavors was just as guilty of sabo­ taging the peace as the Russians— perhaps more so. I say more so, because we pride ourselves on be­ ing more advanced, more alert, more idealistic. Tet actually, oar diplomats were jost as woefully unpre­ pared for peace as the army and navy were for war at Pearl Harbor. When it should have been ready for the most impor­ tant peace offensive in history of the world, the state depart­ ment was caught completely napping. Congress has spent several months of intensive study to ascer­ tain who was responsible for Pearl Harbor; yet no one has lifted a finger to probe the equally impor­ tant disaster of our unpreparedness for peace. If senators probed the files of the state department, or even their own ' files, significant facts would come to light.* • » OUT-TRtJMANS TRUMAN Capital observers credit Sen.

Horace Hildreth daring festival at Houlton, Maine. v G » m L A N D [ JMOLt T nHERE is a pitcher we think is a ^ trifle overlooked: We say that because all the ball players we’ve talked to lately rank him as the best in either league. No—his name isn’t Bob Feller or Spud Chandler op Tex Hughson. He is a w iry ieft- hander by the name of Harold Newhouser of the Tigers. Newhous- er was the b'est pitcher in base­ ball in 1944 when be won 29 games. They threw that one out. A war year. Newhouser was • the best pitcher . Newhonser in baseball last season when .lie won 25 gam es and took over the World series. They threw ,'that one out, also. / Another war yfear.Wait until the bigrhitters come back, they said last spring—Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio, Dom Di- MaggiOi Bobby Doerr, Bill Dickey, Charlie Keller, all these and many others. So what happens? New- houser' has been winning six times out of seven.And Newhouser has been winning these games with a third-place ball club—a ball club that without New- houser would be in fifth place. New- houser was the best pitcher in base­ ball in 1944 and 1945. It is our pre­ diction that he also will be the best pitcher in baseball in the current season of 1946. Its Newhouser, 9 to I We decided to make a fuller check on Newhouser in his own league. We took a survey from 10 well- known veterans who know their way around. Nine gave us New­ houser, one gave us Qob Feller. I asked Bill Dickey what he thought about the matter. The Ar­kansas quail hunter gave us a slow smile. “I’m already in enough trouble,” he said, "without getting into another argument. When I came back to baseball this spring, I heard that Newhouser was just an­ other wartime pitcher. ' Our league happens to be well stocked with fine pitchers. I mean Chandler, Hughson, Ferris, Harris, Trucks, Kramer and a few more. But so far I haven’t seen a better pitcher than Newhouser. You know how hard it is to win 20 games. Newhouser has won 54 in the last ■two years. It wouldn’t surprise me to see him win 30 or more this year. ‘What has he got? About all it takes. A good fast ball. A . good curve ball. G^od control. A lot of confidence in himself. Determi­ nation to win. A good head. Plenty of heart” Unless something disastrous hap­ pens suddenly, it is a pretty safe bet that Hal -Newhouser will lead both leagues on the pitching side. It is also a pretty fair bet that he will pass the 25-game mark again and threaten the 30 spot, which few have ever reached. Two 40-Game Winners So far as so-called modem base­ ball goes the only 40-game winners I can recall at the moment happen to be Ed Walsh and Jack Chesbro. Among the 30-or-more game win­ ners, we’ve had Matty, Johnson, Smokey Joe Wood, Dizzy Dean, Grover Alexander, Lefty Grove and possibly one or two others. Only Matty and Alexander have won 30 or more games three times, in the past 40 years. You can let us know if our memory is slipping. Newhouser has yet to be a 30- game winner. Bot the willowy Tiger left-bander has the best chance to reach this mark for 1946. He comes so close to being the best pitcher in the game that someone else will need a spar to crowd him back be­ fore the stretch run ends in Septem­ ber. j Bob Feller, Spud Chandler and Tex Hughson are all great pitchers. Among the best. But alT three will have to put on extra steam to crowd back Newhouser, who has been baseball’s best pitcher for three years.* * . About the Two Leagues Several querulous letters have come in since the all-star game asking what has happened to the veteran circuit. ‘>Why is it,” one asked, “that the American league should come up with most of the top stars—such men as Ted Williams, Charlie Kel­ ler, Bob Feller, Newhouser, Chan­ dler and so many others who appar­ ently outclass most of the National league’s best men?” The sad facts—sad for the N. L.— are that the older league this sea­ son can match the younger circuit neither in stars, nor in average playing strength. The N. L. has no pitchers to rank with Feller, New­ houser, Chandler, Hoglisan and oth­ ers. Outside of Johnny Mize it has no power hitters who can be classed. with Wiliams, Greenberg, Keller, DiMaggio and several more. This was all known, before. It would have taken a Carl Hub- bell, a Dizzy Dean, a Matfy or an ,Alexander to remove the noise from A . L. bats this season.

RELEASE Union Baseball Up Again The fight to unionize baseball has flared up again, with the Pennsyl­ vania state labor board accepting Jurisdiction in the Pittsburgh base­ ball club’s case. Casey at the bat may yet be there with a union card a3 well.• Unionized baseball intrigues us. We are tired of the old patterns in the national game and yearn for such items in the box scores as “out at first under checkoff rule” . . . “left on bases; stockholders, 7; di­ rectors, 5” . . . “forced at Udrd by Jurisdictional dispute.” The game has become too smooth and peaceful. Gone are the old days of brawls and fireworks every inning. What may be needed are some flashy interludes where the pickets overturn some automo­ biles in the outfield, where a game is called on account ot tear gas or where some Petrillo ot the national fame orders a team to use four players at first, and put on extra shortstops at night games.. • It seems to us that modem ball players lack the m artial spirit. There is too much friendliness and goodwill oh the field. Can you imagine Phil Murray taking a third called strike with nothing more than a scornful look? *_ It seems to us evident that Uie modern baseball player needs pro­ tection. He is too prone to taking a third strike philosophically in­ stead of blaming it on the front of­ fice. He is too inclined to lose a pen­ nant with a shrug of the shoulders instead of with a protest that he is being crucified by manage­ ment. ITnion roles will level off re­ wards. There is no reason why a man who can sock homers every day should get more than a fellow worker who does Us best but can't poke one out of the infield. Hits and runs are not the proper meas­ ure for rewards. AU men are cre­ ated equal, and beyond that it is Just luck, rhythm and box scores. Robert Murphy, who is doing the union organizing in baseball, is a Harvard man. This puts Harvard one up on Yale and Princeton, but WC hear Yale may soon demand a 40-hour week for golfers, while Princeton will ask for the four-day week for horseshoe pitchers. ♦ Batter up!

Distressed, Met thought ot Tom, and remembered that he had called her "darling.” She felt she was tailing Jn love with him. Laurence had come over from the county seat In connec­ tion with the Inquiry concerning Alicia’s death, and he called to talk to Annie •nd Meg. No trace o( a weapon had been found, Larry reported. c4Her'hus­ band ts coming to claim the body.*’ Yes, Allcla was married and It had been her husband who sent, money each month tor her to live. CHAPTER X II She had lost all interest in what­ ever it might be that Annie was telling Laurence. She was so shak- Mii by the news that Alicia had a living husband, that she couldn’t get her mind on anything else. Her fa­ ther had wanted to marry Alicia; and Alicia had let him think that she was free! How Pleasant <3rove was going to laugh at the fool Jim MacTavish had made of himself! Because people were talking about the way he had been pursuing Alicia —and now they would know that Alicia’s husband cared enough about her to come east for the funeral. Megan was still sitting in the liv­ ing room when Laurence came back from his talk with Annie. His brow was furrowed a little and he looked perplexed. “That’s the damdest story I ever heard,” he admitted as he sat down opposite Megan and folded his arms across his chest. “I don’t know what to make of it—but Annie’s not the imaginative sort. She has al­ ways seemed so sensible and level­ headed, such good sound common sense—you wouldn’t expect her to believie in ghosts, would you?” “What on earth are you talking about?” she asked. “Annie’s just been telling me a yarn—I told her that I'd have to go to Squire Ethridge and pa^s-it on to him, because he’s nominally in charge of the case here, though of course the bright boys from the county seat will want a share in it. But anyway, this is what Annie told me.” He leaned forward and looked at her straightly. “I suppose you know about that little old family burying ground at the foot of the Ridge, just at the top of your pasture, west of the rock that you always occupy on your walks?” he. began. “Yes, I know the place, of course,” Megan answered, waiting tensely, little prickles of chill run­ ning up and down her spine like icy fingers. “Well, it sefnis that Amos was coming home night before last a bit late from a lodge meeting,” said Laurence, smiling. “It seems that he'd had some luck with the ‘gallop­ ing dominos’ .and he knew that An­ nie wouldn’t shoot him on sight for getting home so late. Anyway, it was somewhere around midnight, or a little later; Amos was passing the little burying ground when suddenly he saw something that froze him in bis tracks—and may make him avoid ‘galloping dominos’ in the fu­ ture, though that's a lot to hope for.”“You can't possibly mean that he thought he saw the usual wavering white figure—” Megan almost laughed. Laurence nodded. "Nothing less,’' he told her solemnly. “It was, he claimed, at least- eight feet tall and it didn’t have any shape to it, just sort of like it was being poured, he expressed it. There was something shiny about it—the moon was not quite full, but the light was good in the meadow. He says the ghost— he’s quite sure, of course, that it was a ghost—floated along the meadow fence and then went towards the rusty iron fence. It had some­ thing in its hand, although he couldn’t see what it was. Buthestood still in the shadow of a tree, and watched—because he was too para­ lyzed with fear to try to run. And he thought that if he didn’t interfere with its affairs, it might not. know he was around. He says it moved inside the fence, and bent down above one of the old graves and hid something. And then it stood up, and looked arouiid and moved back out of the fence and turned away from Amos—and Amos, recovering a little -from his paralysis, made it home in practically nothing fiat!” Megan said uneasily. “He had probably been drinking up some of that terrible ‘White mule’ his friend Pete whips up—and he was seeing things!.” 1 ' Laurence nodded. “That’s the line I would follow, if it were not for the fact that that night, possibly a few minutes before Amos saw the eight- foot-high ghost, a woman had been killed and the weapon has never been found,” he pointed out. Megan said swiftly, “You can’t possibly think that AmoS* hallucina­ tion had anything to do with—with that?” “I don’t know, of course,” Lau­ rence answered. “But, ot course, any- unusual happening that night, at around that time, will have to-be carefully investigated.” He hesitated, a moment and then he said quietly, “There is no reason whatever, Megan, for anybody to know that you were on the Ridge with Fallon at the time Mrs. Steven- ton was murdered.” . And without waiting for her to re­cover from the shock of his quiet words and their implication, he went quietly out and the door closed be­hind him. She sat there for a long time after he had gone. So Amos had seen her with Tom!' And Amos had -told Laurence.' She bent forward and put her face in her hands and was still—until a soft movement behind her startled her, and she straightened with a little jerk to find Annie in the door­ way watching her With compassion­ ate eyes. “Us didn’ want to tell Mist’ Lau­ rence, Miss Meggie—but us had to,” said the gentle old voice. “Of course, Annie,” she managed- unsteadily. “Ain* nobody else gwine know, Miss Meggie—” . “There was nothing wrong, Annie —it was an accident—” “ ’Course, Miss Meggie—us all knows dat.” Annie’s voice was com­ fortable, assured. “Now yo’ run up- “So you are investigating bur— tragedy, Mr. Reynolds?” t 1staihs an’ fix yo’self up all purty— ’fo1 Mist’ Larry gets back an’ us has suppeh,” urged Annie, and vaguely comforted by Annie’s matter-of-fact- ness, Megan heaved herself to her feet and went upstairs. She grimaced a little as- she looked at herself in the mirror. She was white to the lips, there were shadows beneath her dark eyes, and her hair was untidy. She showered, and donned fresh things, a soft green jersey dress the shade of the first new green in spring that has almost a tinge of yellow in it. She brushed her hair until it gleamed and crackled be­ neath the vigorous onslaught of the brush. Laurence came back a little later, but he was not alone. Witii him was a stoclqr young man whose face looked like that of a man in his early thirties, but whose hair was thickly streaked with gray. He had a pleasant, friendly manner, yet one felt instinctively that he could be tough should occasion require it. Laurence performed the introduc­ tions, saying casually, “Meggie, this is Bob Reynolds. He’s a detective from the county police who’s looking into this business.” “Hello,” said Bob Reynolds, with a friendly smile and a firm, pleasant handclasp. “This is quite a yam your handyman’s been spilling, Miss MacTavish. I’d like to talk to him if I may.”“Of course,” said Megan, looking uncertainly at Laurence. “S halll call him in here—” “I think Amos would be more at ease if we talked to him- in his own cabin, Bob. I know where it is, Meggie—suppose I show Bob the way?” suggested Laurence, and Mr. Reynolds agreed that that would be best. - They went out and a little latefr Annie came to the door and asked uneasily, “Yo’ ’speck dat policeman gwine stay fo’ supper, Miss Meg­ gie? Hit’s mos’ fready.” : “He’s a friend of Mister Lau­ rence’s, Annie—I imagine he would stay if we asked him. Suppose you. set a place for him?” answered Me­ gan mechanically. ' Annie hesitated, something else obviously on-her mind. But after a minute she said her expressionless “yessum” and her felt-soled broad feet padded silently away. Megan felt that Laurence and Reynolds had been gone a .long, long time and looked at the clock to see that barely ten minutes had elapsed since, they had left the. room .„ But it was closer to thirty minutes before they returned, and as they came' along the hall, Megan heard their low-pitched, cautious voices and her nerves crisped a little. “Did. you find Amos?” she .asked with what she hoped was exactly the proper amount of'polite inter­ e st “Oh, yes, he was waiting for us,' answered Laurence, “just as I had asked him to do.” Bob Reynolds eyed Megan straightly and asked, “How long has Amos been working tor you, Miss MacTavish?” “All my life,” answered Megan quickly. “Annie carfie to work for my mother when die was fifteen. She and Amos were married a year or so later, and moved into that Uttle cabin, and were there when I was bom. This is as much their home, almost, as mine.” Bob nodded. “Then what would you say about Amos’ truthfulness? I mean is he reasonably truthful in his statements—or is he given to telling tall tales?” he asked. Megan managed a little laugh she hoped did not sound too artificial or forced. “Well, I’d say that all depended, Mr. Reynolds," she confessed gaily. “If you mean when he is explaining to Annie how it happened he’s lost all his money in a crap game, I think he shows amazing imagination and inventiveness. But ordinarily, I’d say Amos is quite truthful.” “In other words, if he says he saw a ghost eight feet high hovering around in an old burying ground, then he saw something looking at least remotely like that?” suggest­ ed Bob pleasantly.“I fed quite sure that he did—or thought he did,” answered,. Megan promptly and honestly. Bob nodded. “That’s the impres­ sion I got from the old fellow,” he admitted. He stood in thought for a moment before he looked straight at her and asked quietly, “What would be your explanation for his story, Miss MacTavish? How could you account for it?” Megan set her teeth hard for a moment and there was pure panic in her eyes, but before she could say anything, Bob went on quickly, “I mean, of course, that you are quite familiar with the surrounding ter­ ritory—it- is all strange to me. Do you know of anything < that could have alarmed Amos so that he would have mistaken it for an eight* foot ghost?” ■ \ . “I’ve been trying to thiife,” Me­ gan said thoughtfully. “There are some old fruit trees around that place. Pear trees in full -bloom look ghostly in the dark—only it’s too early for them to be blooming. I can’t remember whether the trunks of any of the trees have been white­ washed lately. They are not on my land, you see, and I haven’t noticed them recently.” Bob nodded, his eyes Intent.. “A tree trunk whitewashed half way up is a rather spooky looking thing in the dark. And I suppose there would be Spanish moss on the trees? In the moonlight, with a slight wind stirring that—" He was obviouslythinking aloud, and his brows drew together in a puzzled frown. “Still, Amos is so sure that the ‘spook’ went inside the gate and- bent above, one of the old mounds—" He broke off, grinned and said briskly, “Oh, well, we'll have to wait for daylight, to make an intensive search of the place, I suppose. From the descrip-' tion Amos and Larry both have giv­ en me, I don’t imagine we could accomplish much by searching to­ night. I'll be oyer first thing in the morning, and we’ll give the place a going over."' He was obviously on the verge of leaving, and Megan said quickly, “Won’t you stay for supper, Mr. Reynolds? We’d like having you!” J'Better take her up on that, Bob. Annie’s the best cook in seven states—at a conservative estimate!” said Laurence lightly. Bob beamed happily. “Well, now, if you’re sure it won’t be an impo­ sition, there’s nothing I’d like bet­ ter!” he assured Megan gratefully.. “And I’ll give you a lift back to Meadersville later,-Larry." “Swell!” Laurence agreed hap­ pily. Just as-Annie came to the door to announce that supper was ready, the front door opened and Jim came in. Megan caught a glimpse of him be­ fore Laurence or Bob saw him; he looked desperately tired and forlorn, his shoulders drooping. But the next moment he became aware of the stranger in the living room. His shoulders went bade and his head went up, and he came in, bracing himself, friendly, polite, hospitable, as Laurence performed the intro­ ductions.. •Annie 'made her delayed : an­ nouncement of supper, and they went in and were seated, before Jim spoke to Bob. "So you are investi­ gating our — tragedy, Mr. Rey­ nolds’ ’.’ “Yes,” answered Bob, eyeing hun­ grily ^he crisply browned stuffed chicken that Annie had placed' be­ fore Jim, who was about to wield an expert carving knife. "And I don’t mind telling you that I con­ sider it an open-and-shut case.” For the. barest moment Megan thought the carving knife shook in her father’s hind; but the next in­ stant he went on carping delicately thin slices of chicken and laying them carefully on the plate pefore him. ‘‘An open-and-shut case? You mean you have—er—an idea as to the- guilty person,” Jim asked; with a beautifully balanced interest and curiosity in his voice. ;TO BE CONTINUED) S UNDAylCHootLresson By HAROLD L. ttJNDQUIST, D.

JESUS AND PURE LIVING LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:14; Proverbs 4:14-23; Matthew 5:8: Phllbnians 4:8.MEMORV SELECTION—Keep thy heart with aU diligence; tor out ot It are the Is­sues ol Iile--Proverbs 4:23. Moral corruption has been the ruin of the great nations of the earth, and if history is not to be repeated by the fall of our own nation, we must do something—yes, something prompt and drastic. The breakdown of morals in our land is so evident and so widespread as to give grave concern to social and national lead­ ers. What then, is the Church doing about it? We do not.iike-to talk about adul­ tery and related sins. -We must speak with care and tact, but per­ haps the time has come for some straightforward dealing with an un­ pleasant situation. I. Keep Your Home Fure (Exod. 20:14). As the divinely appointed center of man’s life, the home holds a place of such importance that it is the special target of Satan’s offen­ sive. That has always been true, but it seems that in recent years the onslaught against the home has been intensified. Any violation of the divine plan for the marriage of one man and one woman in loving communion for the founding and maintenance of the home, is a direct violation of the <iaw of God. It 'is also a violation of the law of man. It brings serious results in the destruction of the home, aiid in the ruin of individual life—physical, moral and spiritual. This awful sin (and do not let a wicked world convince you that it is anything else) is back of much of the discord and divorce in our American homes. When we realize that in the City of Chicago there is now one divorce for every three marriages, and that the ratio is rapidly becoming low­ er, there can be no question that divorce is a major evil in our day. Statistics are positively shocking, but they are cold and quickly forgot­ ten. But who can tail to see, and who can forget, the awful woe brought into American home life by divorce. Bad as it is, the awful effect on parents is nothing compared to the nervous, moral and * spiritual shock which comes to children in broken homes. Statistics reveal that now (1946) more than 70 per cent of the juvenile delinquents and young people committed to prison come from homes where divorce has entered to break down and de­ stroy family life. H. Keep Your Heart Pure (Prov. 4:14-23; Matt. 5:8). Out of the heart are the issues of life (Prov. 4:23); hence it is of the utmost importance that it be kept in purity and devotion to God. The heart in Scripture does not refer to the physical organ which circulates the blood, but even as that heart is the center of the physical life, so there is a spiritual heart which is the very center of man’s inner being. Evil thoughts, unholy desires and ambitions hidden in the heart will ultimately be revealed .in overt acts of ungodliness, unless God is permit­ ted to regenerate that heart and make it clean. Thei solution for the problem of impurity is found in our lesson verses. First of all one must avoid the way of the wicked (Prov. 4:14- 17). They are so evil that they can­ not sleep until they have misled some poor souls and brought them down to their own level (v. 16). They make sin and immorality look mysterious and attractive. Don’t be led into sin by the enticement of curiosity. Shun the evil way, which goes down with increasing darkness, by seeking the good way which “shin- eth more and more unto the perfect day” (Prov. 4:18, 19), The way Ot life is a bright and shining way. Don’t let Saton fool you, young peo­ ple, into thinking the opposite. It’s great to' be a Christian! In. Keep Your Head Pure (Phil. 4:8). The mind of man is quick and active (that isi if he is really alive and awake)’, and it wants to be oc­ cupied with' Something of interest. The world, the fiesh and the devil are keenly aware of that fact and come to fill his mind with allure­ ments to sin and destruction. ' Thank God that -no one need lack for things that are good, honoAble, true'and noble to fill and satisfy ev- ry mental as well as spiritual in­ terest. God’s provision is not lim­ited either in scope or variety. He provides the best, the mo.st ifoiigirf. ful, the loveliest and most noble. Observe that it is for us who know Christ as our Saviour, to give our­ selves in diligent effort to “think on these things.” As we do we «h»n find that they crowd but our think­ ing those thiqgs which are sensual, selfish or siafuL. It is a .sound principle of psychology as well , as a spiritual admonition. It really works. - Vienna, Possessor ot Fine Fleece, Is Rarely Tamed Although the vicuna of Peru possesses the finest fleece known, this animal has never yet been domesticated on a commercial scale, says Collier’s.

Most varieties of pears should be< - taken from the tree when they have finished growing and kept in a cool place until they are ripe enough to serve raw. At this stage they are ■ tender and juicy but not mellow. It pays to take time to sort fruit so that pieces of ,about the same size and color can be kept together. Then the pie or -fruit-cup pieces won’t be mixed with those intend­ ed for fancy looking desserts. Ev­ ery piece of fruit should be washed carefully and drained well before the skin is broken. Skins should be removed from peaches, pears and and apricots. Yes, the skin can be left on but it is impossible to have both skins and top quality. Stones may be left in peaches and ripe apricots, not that we understand why anybody would want them, but woe is more than likely to be the lot of the home canner who leaves stones in apricots which have been taken from the tree . before fully ripe. Such apricots have a poor fla­ vor at best and the green stones make it even poorer. But we are going too fasti Let’s remember that flavor is lost with every minute lost between the time the fruit is washed and the time it is put into the canner for process­ ing. Therefore, all jars, caps, lids, and rubbers should be checked, washed, rinsed, covered with water and put over heat to sterilize; water should also be put to heat in whatever is used as a water bath caimer, and all utensils and ma­ terials collected before work is started on preparing the fruit. Corn Sirup for Sweetening The sweetening story is still a little on the sour side. It can be no news to you that it may not be pos­ sible to buy all the granulated sugar you would like to have, but short­ age of the cane and beet sugars need not halt your fruit canning pro­ gram because com sirup can take over where these granulated sugars leave off, and a lot of people think the fruit better when com sirup helps out. Gladys Kimbrough, Home Service Director for Ball Brothers Company and editor of the famous Ball Blue Book of Home Canning and Preserving Becipes, gives a basic simp recipe which may be adjusted to meet your re­ quirements. The simp is made by combining two cups sugar, one cup standard grade com simp, one cup water or fruit juice, and boiling about two minutes or until the sugar dis­ solves. Either light or dark com sirup may be used. The dark simp is especially good with dark fruits. Its flavor blends nicely with light fruits too, but it tends to add color where color may not be wanted. Miss Kimbrough recommends that, when possible, some sugar be used when putting up fruit because the flavor of sweetened fruit is more acceptable to most persons but she also makes it quite clear that fruit will keep without sugar. When no sugar is used', the fruit should be heated in a little wafer or in its own juice before it is put into the jars. Whether canned with or with­ out sugar, fruit should be covered with liquid in the jar, otherwise it is likely to discolor. Miss Kimbrough advises home canners to sweeten and flavor simps to suit themselves. If you' would like more flavor in your peaches or —Pioto Caatar BtU Im Co. pears, you might try adding a half teaspoon vanilha or orange, or nut­ meg, or rum, or a few drops of almond extract to each quart of fruit. In other words, you are free to make the things you put up at home taste like you want them to taste and-that is something nobody else will or can do for you. Up-to-date canners heat fruit enough to shrink it before it is placed in the jars for processing by boiling in a hot water bath can­ ner. This is called hot packing. The fruit may be heated in its own juice or in simp. One excellent way is to measure the prepared fruit, add the sugar to it, and heat gently until the juice runs free and the sugar is dissolved. Two cups sugar and one cup com simp will Sweeten a gallon of prepared peaches enough to suit the average taste. If the peaches are juicy, no water need be added. Pears can usually get along with a little less sugar than peaches call for but they nearly always need some water to start Hiem cooking. Processing time varies according to the size, variety, and firmness of fruit but the average time for peaches, pears, and apricots, which have been thoroughly heated before packing, is fifteen minutes at boil­ ing.' Even if fruits keep, they will discolor if for any reason they have not been heated boiling hot all the way through. If you will begin with good home canned fruits, you can end with won­ derful desserts which are just no bother at all to make. For example. Peaches and Cream Cake is a fit­ ting finish for any meal. All you do is make or buy a plain angel fopd or sponge cake, frost it thick with sweetened whipped cream and surround it with halves of tree- ripened free-stone peaches right out of your own jars. This cake should be served at the table because it is far too handsome to be cut in the kitchen.

The Vegetable Mixture may be thinned with milk or water before heated for serving, but is much better when thinned with meat stock or broth. Vegetable soup gets along all right without garnish, but if it is to be the mainstay of a lunch or supper, you might like a piece of toast covered with grated cheese floating in each bowL Crackers or bread sticks are usually served with vegetable soup but our choice is midget com pones, about two inches long, crusty and hot. ' , Gladys Kimbrough, editor of the famous Ball Blue Book of canning - T ia tt C aautr B ttt Bra*. Ca. and preservation roeipes, gave us her favorite recipe for vegetable soup. It is: 8 quarts chopped tomatoes 2 quarts sliced okra or 2 quarts small green lima beans 2 quarts com . 2 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons salt Cook tomatoes until soft, then press through sieve to remove skin and seed. Add other ingredients and cook until thick. Pour into hot jarss Process 60 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. “Odds and Ends” Usable lfiss Kimbrough also told us that many people Iite to put “all the odds and ends” they can find in the garden in the soup, and she thinks that’s all right if that’s the way one wants it. It seems ,that all you do is: prepare the vegetables and boil them five or ten minutes with water to cover or with topnatdbs which have been skinned and chopped. Season with salt and pepper. Pour boiling hot into hot jars. Process for the time required for the vege­ table (in the soup) requiring longest processing time.

Hlddenite. N. C. Jobn Clark Williams, in Relig­ ions Telescope, gives ten reasons for tithing as follows: First. It is the only specific tea­ ching in the Bible, bearing on a man’s obligation to contribute of wbat be possesses to the support of the Lord’s work. 'Second. Jestts did not command it, yet He commended it, and those who became His disciples practiced it Can a Christian jnssify him­ self in doing less than . the first Christians did? Third The tithe is our finan­ cial debt to God.-growing out of His absolute ownership of all t,hat we possess Honest people want to Day their debts. This drbt is easily paid if pr.id.promptly. Fourth. Tithing is a practical recognition of man’s stewardship of God’s property.- God is a btisi- ners partner. Fifth. When God is a partner the temptation to follow crooked business met hods “reaches the min imiim. It pavs to guard your own soul. Sixth. A conscientious tither becomes a conscientious user of money. A man may or may not make hie money, but the use of the money does make the man. Tbe use a man will make Pt bis name, his family, his friends, -or bis honor is indicated bv the use he makes of his money. Tithing gives a death blow the luxurious waste American Christians waste more than thev give to the church. Seventh. Tithing, instead of be­ ing a sostly practice, is rather e- qnivalent to saving, since it culti- vates thrift. Eighth. -The financial and spiri­ tual povesty. of the present day church will not be changed until Christians give the Lord a square deal. A money outpouring will come before a great spiritual out: ponring will come God can un derstand when we mean business. Ninth. Objections are trivial. A little work, a little care, a little praver, and they are all gone,. Tenth. Tithing is right, and there is uo other way. Righteous­ ness is its own reward. To do tTight in all money matters is a real “acid test.” These ten reasons for tithing are ceitainly reasonable. We believe every fa thful, conscientious tither will heartily approve of them. We see nothing wrong with an\ one of them. Let me speak personally,- I re­ member the first sime I- ever had the light on tithing was reading a bonk entitled "The Methodist Ar­ mor.” As I grew up I never heard a sermon on tithing, neither had the privilege of reading one. No one in the community where I liv­ ed tithed, and the preachers failed to enlighten ns, as thev should, on this very important mattfer As a consequence the most of us only gave a vefy little pittrnce to the support of the Gospel We gave pennies when we should have giv­ en dollars. Not only did we fail to.snpoort God’s cause as we should with onr means, but we lost a bles­ sing spiritually and financially; for it adds to ane’s spirituality to tithe and certainlv the tither is blessed financially. One tither in a com­ munity will give more to the cause of God, in Stl probability, than ten non tithers It was nearly thirty three years ago that I read ."Tbe Methodist Armor,” which I. - borrowed, and wnich enlightened me on the sub­ ject of tithing. From that day un­ til now I have been a conscientious tither. Ten cents out of every dol Iar I receive goes into the cause of God. Not only that, bat I give dut ofthe remaining nine, tenths. Praise tbe I M Whence once we Union or Noii-Union Roger Ba son, noted economist, in a recent article gave his opinion abont membership-iu labor unions Babson'very aptly summed- up the matter of wages with the/fol­ lowing statement: “Wage earners are not primarily interested In money wages, but ratbet In what these wages will buy in food, cloth, ing and shelter.” In this connection he went on to say that one of the curses of unioni­ zation has been the--'*slow down” of workers, which raises the cost of- all products made bv that type of labor, decreases production and make less to be divided, or avast- able to the public, which 'includes the union men themselves. -Continning .with advice to work ers, Babson wrote the following: • ‘This brings me to give some advice relative for whom toy work, Would von personally, be better-off working In a open or closed shop? Would you, personally, he ,better off working with a small unorga nized concern or with a large fully organized concern? I grant that each has certain advantages and certain disadvantages, depending IargeIynponthe character'of the industry and your age, health; etc. Bnt in closing let me give some rales which, perhaps, should be followed: I. If you are young and am­ bitious, get a job with a concern where there Is no labor union. If you are a good worker, yon can get more rapid advancement with an unorganized concern. “2. If you are over 50 years of age or not in very good health, you will be better off to join a labor nnion add get a job with , a closed shop concern “3. It vou are middle-aged, hut have good health —or vice versa —then join the union but get with an open-shop.concern which accepts both union and non-union men.”' Honesty Worth 4 Cents Davenport, Iowo.—Police report­ ed that a j4-year-old hov and his ten year.old sister found ten Jlio bills while sorting a pile of news­ papers. They returned them to the owners. The- youngster reeeived a reward of four rents! We don't like to make X marks after jrour name. : resolve to tithe our income we con­ sider that we are only doing what God requires, and we feel that it is absolutely reasonable and right. We give the tithe, and offerings besides, so freely. No conscien. tious tither gives grudgingly Gnd alwavs blesses the faithful tither, Heenables us to be careful, not only to give onr tithes, bnt to be carefnl, not ouly to give onr tithes, but to be careful how we. spend the other nine tenths. I’ve never known a conscientious tither to go bank, rapt, or to .make an honest debt and fail to pav it. Business men and bankers, have no trouble to get a debt ont of a tither. They know he is absolutely dependable. Then his tithe blesses mankind, He sup­ ports the preacher of the Gospal cheerfully, the cause of missions, and helps send forth the blessed Gospel throughout the earth He feels happy and thankful for the part he has in the great and glor. ious work of winning souls add helping Christianize mankind.

Amen, and glory to God. Might Happen Here Athens; Tennessee, for the first time in many years has an honest government. Ittook both ballots and bullets to get the election steal, ing machfng Ottstgd from the little city of Athens and McMinn Coun y. The Damocratic political machine bad bitted twenty-five thugs whom they called deputy sberifis to pro. tect their henchmen while they stole the election. It came about that the ex-G I’s were not afraid of the things who sought refuge in the jail for themself while they mis­ counted the votes. The citizens of the town and couuty rose up in righteous indignation and gave a democracy that has bpen needed even In sections of ^fortb Carolina. This spoutaneons uprising of thous­ ands of citizens bas hern miscalled a mob. Those citizens no more constituted a mob than a group of neighbors would in protecting a cnicken coop from thieves. When those hirelings realized that they were not going to be allowed to count the votes as they bad in all previous elections they announced that the ticket sponsored by the ex G- I..’s had won. At the pre­ sent time the city and we suppose county is being run by a commit tee of tnree headed by a Methodist preacher who says that while be does not believe in sach methods be is prouder of bis community to­ day than ever before.

When It Comes To Ac­ tion Senator Byrd has been pointing out for;years that hundreds of thousands of unessential employees should be removed from the Fed­ eral Government’s payrolls. Senator George says that by too many employees are on the Federal Government's payrolls. In this, be aod Senator Bvrd are joined by many other legislators, business­ men,, editors, economists et'al. But wbat happens? The* vast majority of Federal employees in the civilian category are remaining on the Federal payrolls Talk a bout as much effect as talking a- bout-the weather. Wbat is the answer to that one? Ivssibly the fact that 3,000,000 civilian'Government employees re present many votes back home in the workers’ old home town poll ing places bas a good deal to do with matters,' especially during a year when all members of the low er bouse of Congress are coming up for re-election. — Winston-Salem Journal.

In the top gallery sit hundreds of news- ' men — Chinee, Siamese, Greek, In­ dian, New Zealanders, watching a man speak far: below. Newsmen trom all over the world watching the peace. It’s their peace. What’s >one here will affect their countries tram Baluchistan to Iceland, from Saskatchewan to Samoa, and they ^re watching. Far below, under the klieg lights, sits Jimmy Byrnes — patient, polite Jimmy Byrnes — never leaving bis seat, never failing to listen. . . . A man speaks into the microphone. He’s interpreting Molotov . . . in French. Another man speaks. He’s interpreting Molotov in English.. It takes hours. When, you wonder, will diplomacy ever become mod­ ernized? - Diplomacy hasn’t been changed since 1815. . . The Vienna conference when the great powers divided up Europe Emd brought on more wars. Paris today is depressingly the same. We invent modern methods of warfare. . . . Rock- l ets that may reach the moon, atomic bombs Oiat sink na­ vies, germs that can destroy civilizations. . . . Bnt the weap­ ons of peace never keep pace with Gie weapons of war . . . nor do the diplomats who wield the weapons of peace. The same crowd which failed to head off the last war is here again —even some of the same crowd which sat in at the last Paris peace conference.. . . Look at their faces. Poker- faces. No life, no lift, no pas­ sion for the peace they are negoti-. ating, bored faces, preoccupied faces, bored with the endless trans­ lations. Bored with the whole bore­ dom. of diplomacy. Not a man among them who lost an arm or a leg, who knows what it is to suf­ fer on the battlefield. These are the men who are writing the peace. Jimmy Byrnes is not bored. Po­ lite, patient, precise Jimmy Byrnes sits on the front row — perhaps he is too. polite, too patient. . . . You -feel like shouting down at Jimmy. You wish you had a telephone to reach him there, way down below. You wish you could tell him: “That was a great speech you made the other day, Jimmy, but finish it. Tell them the rest of the story. Tell them not only that the Dnited-States isn’t going to remain isolated but also that we’re going to raise hell with anyone who blocks our path to.peace. TeU them that millions of Americans are fed up with all this frittering; that mil­ lions of Americans mean business and will back you up in anything you do.” i Around the senate chamber of the palace of Luxembourg are great, gold ornaments. Woodwork carved in ornate shapes, heavily encrust­ ed with gold—remnants of the lush days of the de Medicis. . . . If the French had only been smart. If they had only painted out the gold and substituted white crosses! Then perhaps the bored diplomats sitting below would remember. . . . white crosses . . . from Guadalcanal and Stalingrad, from Salerno and New Guinea, from Tobruk and the Rap- ido, from Normandy and Aachen . . . Close your eyes and you can see them, . . . Thousands of white crosses. . . . The dead speak: “We who lie here have noth­ ing left to give. “To all your praises we are deaf and blind. “We m ay' not even know if yon betray “The hopes we cherished for mankind.” But the diplomats below don’t seem to hear. . . . Men in. red plush seats, fastidious men in red plush seats, their nails polished, their cravats carefully tied. They don’t seem to hear. They are think­ ing about- procedure and majority votes, vetoes and prestige and whether they will get out in time to take tea with Mrs. Ogden Mills. One man does hear. He sits op­ posite Jimmie Byrnes. . . . A big, uncouth man, his hair not . even parted. . . . Evatt of Australia. cockney accent is uncultured but I dares, to speak. He is the only i n who comes anywhere near preach *1ing the Sermon on the Mount, ___ tells the bored men in the red plush seats that they must love their neighbors as themselves. . . . Un­ pleasantly Evatt steps on the toes of the big nations — tells them they have no business sabotaging the peaceful goal of others. . . . They don’t like Evatt, but they listen. Even patient, polite Jimmie Byrnes doesn’t like Evatt. But he listens. . . . Thousands of men under white crosses listen, too. BARTERING OVER PEACE Clement Attlee, prime minister of Britain, speaks — the.man who per­ formed the miracle of defeating War Leader Winston Churchill—a modest man,, a sincere, earnest man. His bald head shines under the klieg lights. But . it is no halo. . . . Some hours before Attlee was haggling with Bymes over the fu­ ture of Germany—bartering over the peace of the world; wanting to trade off a British policy in Palestine for ah American policy in Germany. * .JEI MEDAL FOB FATHER . . .

MICHIGAN WHEAT TITHING PROJECT . . . A block-long fence of ndieat was built at Adrian, Mich., for the Lord by Michigan and Ohio farmers who joined with Perry Hayden, Teeomseh, Mich., to complete a six-year tithing project.

Well, he’s directed the great of stage and screen — Ethel Barrymore, Laur- ette Taylor, Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman, with great success and no casualties. “All these women are GREER GARSON unlike any "you ever saw before,’* he says, “and when first you see them, you are not sure that you like them. But once people become accustomed to peculiarities of strik­ ingly individual actresses, thousands try to be like them.” -S- Keimy Baker steps in as emcee and star of “Glamour Manor” Sep­tember 30, on ABC.

Denmark’s “Viking Girl,” who’s signed a long-term contract with Hall Wallis productions, has the leading feminine role hi “The Beg­gars Are Coming to_Town.” She and her family were among the last to leave DenmaA before the German occupation. Jane Withers got her start in films In a Shirley Temple picture, “Bright Eyes.” Now that they're both grown-up,’Jane says she’d like to make another picture with Shir­ ley. She proves what a real-actress she is as a reporter in “Danger Street.” William Wyler can’t see why the doctor said it was just "a common cold” that laid him up during the filming of Goldwyn’s “The Best Years of Our Lives.” He figures that the cost of halting production for a day costs exactly $5,326.15. Of course, that included Ihe salaries of stars, extras and technicians. As for the extra 15 cents — that was for a box of aspirin. Peter Lind Hayes, considered by a lot of people the best comedian now at large, reports to Holbrwood in the fall for his first picture role; he’ll play a press agent in Nunnally Johnson’s “Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid.” Radio row still is gap­ ing over the very sensible stipula­tions he made when first radio of­ fers were dangled before him—$100 a week for himself, $3,000 for script writers. He learned the importance of writers-after an unfortunate ex­perience with the Beatrice Kay show. Tommy Dorsey, working in “The Fabulous Dorseys,” (United Artists release) is prepared for anything. ‘•‘The way Hollywood does things,” said he, ‘Tm not sure they won’t ask my brother Jimmy to portray me, and then ask me to play Jimmy!” — *— The "experts” on “It Fays To Be Ignorant” are frightfully disap­pointed — not a single romance has developed between contestants who’ve net when appearing on the program. More than a hundred couples have been introduced to each other; Friday after Friday, a young man and a young woman have been selected from the audi­ence and brought to the stage, But Tom Howard still has hopes. Marsha Hunt and Felix Bressart will be seen in good company in “Carnegie Hall”—the cast includes Jascha Heifetz, Arthur Rubenstein, Lily Pons, Rise Stevens and Benny Goodman, Boston Symphony orches­ tra,. New York Philharmonic and Vatican choir. • ... — SK— ODDS AND ENDS—Jfhen Curtis Bern­ hardt, directing "‘Possessed!’ at Warner's, calls uJoatt!".he gets responses from Joans Crawford, Winfield, Chandler and Coring. . . .

For its Mex- co—and the good that Mexico has done for ball play­ ers everywhere. • The Red Sox, Joe Louis and Assault have taken full charge of the spot­ light side. They have been the out- s t a n d i ng cham­ pions. Golf has no entry with Ben Ho­ gan and Byron Nel- Ted Williams son, the two lead­ ing money winners, /railing Lloyd Mangrum in the U. 5. Open. We seem to have the best tennis players but a Frenchman is Itill the Wimbledon winner. / What has happened in the first fear after the war? Except in the Way of record attendances and gen- >ral enthusiasm, the aftermath of World War H hasn’t even ap­ proached . the aftermath of World War I. Not in the way of competi­ tive class. Can you name competitors today Rrho have anything like the com­ bined class of Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, Bobby Jones, Bill Til- len, Tommy Hitchcock,' Rogers Hornsby, E atl Sande, Walter Hagen, Bene Sarazen, Red Grange, Man o’ War? We have Joe Louis. But Joe Louis h as' been the world’s heavyweight champion for over nine years. We have Ted Williams, but Ted Williams hit over .400 before the last war. He was a great ball play­ er, or at least, a great hitter, before World War n ever developed a slight fever. Sammy Baugh and Sd Luckman go well back before World War H. The brief postwar period has de­ veloped a wild stampede to the bout office. But very littie beyond that, to baseball the batting stars today inclpde Ted Williams, Dixie Walk­ er, Dom DiMaggio, Vernon, MusiaL Hank Greenberg and a few more. But these are veterans—most at them. Hal Newhouser of the Tigers and Rocky Graziano have been the two leading stars since 1941. Against this list I haven't the heart to give you the names of those who have faded, 'folded up or slipped badly—who, returning from army and navy assignments, - fell far behind. The outstanding per­ formance of 1946—so far—has been the ’ Red Sox,, plus Ted Williams. - Plus the Dodgers’ fine showing against heavy odds, player for play­ er. The second nomination is Joe Louis—who against Billy Conn bad almost no opposition. Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson are the two major money winners in golf—but LIoyd Mangrum is Open champion and Herman Keiser is the Master’s winner. And Sammy Snead is British 'champion. It is all very much confused, very badly tangled up. Most Class in Footbfdl In my opinion the feature part of 1946 won’t belong , to baseball, racing, boxing, basketball, track; golf - or tennis. It will belong to football." This applies to both the college teams and the pros. This first applies to the quality of com­ petition. - There will be far more class to football than any other postwar sport can even approach. I understand that over 100,000 ap­ plications had been made for the Army-Michigan - game back in June. There will be over 200,000 ticket applications for this contest at Ann Arbor. Applications for the Army-Notre Dame game will pass the 300,000 mark before September. Army-Notre Dame and Army-Navy together could leave the 500,000 mark behind — ft there was only space enough. The Navy-Georgia Tech game in Atlanta already has two times the seat applications that Atlanta can handle. Notre Dame, Army, Navy and Michigan will be a triple sell­ out for almost every contest. The same tiling will happen to South­ ern California and DCLA on the west coast. Aiso to St. Mary’s and others. But I doubt that Notre Dame will have the team Frank Leahy had in 1943. or that Army will have the team Red Blaik had in 1944 or 1945. The talent, hasn’t improved, but the crowd interest has. Veter­ ans coming from army and’ navy service have proved nothing. Some have been better — others have taken a big dip. This has been true in baseball — and it will be just as true in college and pro footbalL There will be stars from other years who will shine — and there will be stars from other years who will be flops. There will be a professional, foot­ball entanglement that will leave you gasping—and more than a few pocketbooks flatter than a thin plank. In looking on ahead you will also see a big revival In ten­ nis interest — and one of the hot­ test amateur golf championships any galloping member of the Thun­ dering Herd has ever known. Bud Ward — Frank Stranahan — Cary Middlecoff — golfers good wnmigh to beat the Nelsons and the Hogans in major tests, plus young stars moving up. This has been a rather dizzy season, so far,, up and down.

CHAPTER X in . “Not as to the identity, no,” ad­ mitted. Bob. “But I’m convinced that it was some prowler—a would- be burglar who was frightened off before he had a chance to steal any­ thing. Though, of course, it’s not usual for a burglar to be supplied with a knife ad a weapon—I don’t believe he brought the weapon with him. I believe that he used one of the victim’s own knives—a large kitchen knife—” He broke off, scar­ let and embarrassed as he saw Me­ gan’s white, twisted face. He apolo­ gized hastily, “Good grief, Miss Mac- Tavish — I ought to be kicked! Please-forgive me—I’m thoroughly ashamed—Larry, you ought to have better sense than to allow me out with your friends. I’m sorry, Miss MacTavish—I do apologize—” Megan managed a faint smile and said huskily, “Please don’t—I—I am a bit squeamish, I suppose. You see—I knew her well—" Bob nodded soberly. “I know— everybody says you are the only real friend she had. Everybody else seemed to dislike her and distrust her. I "guess .that’s the reason I was speakin'g so frankly. Let’s for­ get it. After all, a meal like this de­ serves more cheerful and apprecia­ tive table conversation!” .When the meal was over, and'the men were settled in the living room, Megan stayed to help Annie dear the table. And while she was thus engaged, Laurence came back into the dining room, and stood at her shoulder and said very low, "I just wanted you to know, Meggie, that— everything is quite all right. There’s nothing at all for you to worry about.” Megan looked up at him, tears thick in her eyes, her mouth trem­ulous, “I—met him by acddent, Lar­ ry. I didn’t plan it—truly.” He looked down at her, frowning. “But — good heavens, Meggie, don’t you suppose I know that?” he protested, almost as though he re­ sented her feeling that she should offer such an explanation. She caught her breath and a wave of relief swept over her. She smiled through her tears and said huskily, “Thanks, Larry.” “For what?” The frown still drew his eyebrows together. “For know­ ing that you couldn’t possibly do anything wrong? For knowing that you couldn’t make, or keep a tryst with a man tied up as Fallon is? For Heaven’s sake, Meggie—I’ve known you since you were a baby— don’t you suppose* I know you well enough to know that if you met Tom Fallon on the Ridge at midnight, it' was an accidental meeting?” Laurence .hesitated a moment and then he said quietly, “I’d like to ask you something, Meggie—mind?” “No, of course not.” “Then—are you in love with Fallon?” The words were quietly spoken, but they took her breath so that she could only look up at him, unable to speak. But the way the color flowed into her face, the look in her eyes gave him all the answer he needed. “So that’s why you—couldn’t get excited about marrying me,” he said after a moment, very quietly. She set her teeth hard in her low­ er lip, not daring to trust her voice to answer him, and after a little he said in a tone of the greatest gentleness, “Poor little Meggiel Al­ ways doing things the hard way!” . By now she had steadied her voice, and she faced him straightly. “If—you’ll j-j-just give me. a little time, Larry—” she managed. . His brows were drawn deep now in a frown and his look was puz­ zled. “A little time, Meggie?” he repeated. “For what?” “To pull myself together and get over this — this — craziness about Tom,” she said. “Because I. will, you know. I’ll—I’ll get over it and —maybe if you haven’t got disgust­ ed with me before that—” “Oh, I'll be around, Meggie. Is that what you mean?” asked Larry, and now there was a grimness in his voice, a coldness in his eyes that chilled her a little, “Yon are the only girl for me. You’ve always been. I’m a slow and plodding cuss, but once I get my mind—and my heart—made up, I hold on. Like Hie good old snapping turtle that gets a grip and swings on until you have to kill him to make him let go. But what makes you so sure that you can get over what you fed for Fal­ lon?”“Because I’m going to!” she told him with determination. He turned away from her then as Bob called to him from the hall, and a Iittfe later they were gone., Megan and her father sat in the living room for a little In silence after they had gone. It was Jim who finally broke, the silence. “Did you know Uiat she—was mar­ ried?” he asked heavily. “Yes,” Megan nodded. “Laurence told me.” . • .Jim’s face.twisted. “What a laugh she must have got out of me—want­ing to marry her. And she told me she would—she never for a moment even hinted that she was-not a wid­ ow!” Megan waited, knowing a little of the release that would come to him if he could rid his mind of these revelations.“It began, at first, as a sort of— well, joke,” he admitted. “It seemed to amuse her to give the Pleasant Grove folks something to talk about. I was lonely, and I suppose she got a kick out of making a fool of me—” He broke off and passed a hand across his eyes and looked , straight at Megan. “But I didn’t kill her,” he finished quietly, with a simple T “Then — ara you in love with Fallon?” dignity that was somehow oddly touching.“I know, you didn’t, dear,” Megan assured him swiftly. He studied her for a moment and then he asked in a puzzled tone, “Meggie, how did you and I start disliking each other? I’ve befen do­ ing a good deal of thinking lately. I admire you very much. You’re a fine girl and a brave girl, and— well, I can’t quite understand why’ it is that we seem to rub each other the Wrong way all the time. I’ll prob­ ably be just as hard to get along with tomorrow, as I was yesterday —only tonight. I’m—well, I’m lone­ ly, Meggie, and tired, and maybe— just a little afraid. Could we sort of—be friends, do you suppose?” “Of course, Dad!” She bent swift­ ly and kissed his cheek. 'Jim looked at her for a moment and then nodded as though he had reached some sort of decision. Both Jim and Megan were silent for a bit, each with his own thoughts of their new-found relationship. He cocked an eye at her humor­ ously. “Of course, you understand that I’m just as lazy and shiftless and generally no ’count as ever, for all that I’m suffering a change' of heart tonight. But, you know, Meg­ gie, the whole thing boils down to the fact that I’ve been jealous of you since the day you were born.” “Jealous, Dad?” the astonished Megan repeated. He nodded. “I adored your moth­ er, Meggie. I know now that it was a jealous, possessive love,, the sort of thing that makes a spoiled little boy say, ‘If we can’t play my way, then I won’t play at all.’ We were happy at first. I was first with her;, her every thought was for. me, for my comfort, my happiness, iny well- being. And then—you came along, and took up a lot of your mother’s tenderness and thought, and I had to take second place. And like the no-good that I was, I resented it." “Oh but, Dad—that’s-r-why, that’s wicked! Poor Mother!” she said just above, her breath. “It wasn’t that she loved me more than she loved you; it was that I needed her more.” ............. ? - - ' “And I resented that, too!” said her father. Megan could say nothing. She could only‘wait, her hands linked tightly together, her eyes Clinging to his face. “Odd, what a chastening effect it has on a man, when he realizes that he has 'made a Complete and un­mitigated fool of himself!” he said at last. “I feel as though. I’d been kicked—almost as much as I de­ serve to be! And that is quite some, incidentally!” . ''But-it’s .all over and done with, Dad—we can have-a lot of fun to­ gether—” Megan began eagerly. “Over and done with, Meggie? “Don’t kid yourself, my dear—we haven’t seen the last ot; this! Nof heard it, either,” he. corrected her swiftly. “Had you realized that if Amps was on the Ridge, that night, as he must have been to tell .LiUTy the story he did, the chances are' ex­ cellent that he saw you—as WetLaz the eight-foot-tall ghost?” - Megan nodded, her-face white but her outward composure commend­ able. “I know that he did,'Dad,” she said quietly. “He told Larry.” Her father’s body jerked like a marionette on a string manipulat­ ed by an inexpert puppeteer. , “Told Larry—that you were on the Ridge with Fallon?” he repeated sharply. Megan nodded. For a moment Jim was very- still, like a man suddenly paralyzed. And then very carefully he asked, “Did you tell that fellow Reynolds?” Megan shook her head, her hands cold in her lap. “He—didn’t, seem to think it was necessary,” she managed the words with difficulty. “He seemed to think that the fact that I was there gave me an alibi. If I was there at that time, I couldn’t possibly have been across the road—even it I had had a motive.” Her father nodded. “Which, of course, means that Larry doesn’t know I intended to try to marry her and bring her here,” he finished the thought for her. Then he smiled, a mirthless smile that made him look suddenly very old and very tired. “Now if only somebody had seen me going for my walk—” “Perhaps somebody did,” said Megan eagerly. He shook his head. “I saw no one —after I left Alicia,” he said quiet-' Iy and distinctly. She stiffened a little and hereyes were wide. “You—saw her—that night?" she whispered, her lips pallid. “At eleven-thirty,” said Jim and heaved a sigh as he ran his fingers' through his magnificent crop of sil­very-gray hair. “The way I figure it, she couldn’t have been alone, aft­ er I left her, more than ten or fif­ teen minutes.” His fingers trembled a little as he filled his handsome pipe and tamped the> tobacco carefully into the mel­ low bowl, but his eyes did not leave Megan’s white, frightened face.“We quarreled,” said Jim quietly, distinctly, “when she admitted that she had not the slightest idea of marrying me. She called me. a pompous old fool, and a no-’count stuffed shirt and a lot of equally uncomplimentary things. But I did not kill her, Megan, I swear it.” Suddenly Megan was on her knees beside him, her arms close about' him, her cheek hard against fiis, all the ugliness and the animosity that bad colored their relations for years wiped out between them in this mo- "ment when-she ached with pity for him, and When for the first time in her adult life she had begun to have some glimmering of understanding him. “Of course you didn’t, dear—no one could believe for a moment that you did,” she told him, her voice shaken with emotion. Jim put his arm about her and seemed to welcome her nearness, the sheer creature comfort of her warm “presence and her sympathy. “Thank you, my dear—but I’m afraid a great many people could be persuaded to believe that I did,” be pointed out to her at last. “The circumstantial evidence against me is pretty strong. We did quarrel. Undoubtedly I am. the last person— save one!—to see her. alive. And, when I left her, in a fury of injured pride and .bruised self-esteem, I went for a long walk alone, and saw no one. I returned home here well after one o’clock—by which time she had been dead, according to the. doctor, for at least an hour. So you see—” “But you didn’t—you couldn’t— 'have done' it, Dad! Nobody could ever make me believe you did!” she comforted him, as though he had been the child, she the parent. It was long before she slept that night, but in spite of the unpleasant turmoil and excitement, of the last forty-eight hours, she was more at peace-than she had been in a long time. She could begin to understand her father a little; and to under­stand is to forgive. She was conscious ohly of the fact that she and her father might hope to live together now with less fric­ tion, less animosity than before. And the thought had healing and com­ fort in it. She was able to fall asleep at last, emotionally and phys­ ically exhausted,- and when she awoke in the morning, she felt stronger and more refreshed than in many months,, in spite of the horror of the last twenty-four hours, and in spite of knowing that the next few days were going to be far from pleasant. She had finished her morning chores; and was busy with a seed catalog and an- order blank when Laurence arrived. Annie, big-eyed with excitement, showed him into the' small den where Megan worked, and hovered anxiously,“It’s all right, Annie—we found something that proves that Amos was telling us the truth—that is, that he did see. something at the old: burying ground 'that night,” said Laurence quickly. .

On July .28, 1943, he became America’s leading aice of World Wai H when he. added four victims to his string. Ris total was 15-and he rapidly was approaching the. mark set in World War I by Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker. He had engaged in his 25th operational flight. In August, 1943, he was promoted to the rank of captain and in Octo­ ber he. received the Distinguished Service Gross from General Mac- Arthur. for ' heroism over New Guinea’s Markham valley on a mission flown July 26.Bong passed Captain Rihkenback- er’s record of 26 planes on April_13, 1944, when he shot down his 26th and 27th enemy planes. In April, 1944, Bong was promoted to major and a short time later he was pre­ sented with the Congressional Medal New Bong Stories Related On Anniyersary of Death By WNU Features. On the first anniversary of the untimely death of M aj. Richard I. Bong of Poplar, Wis., America’s ace of aces, many interesting facts concerning the modest farm youth who skyrocketed to fame in the armed service of his country are revealed for the first time by the memorial foundation’bearing his name. The admiration and respect for$-----------------------------------------------the air hero who shot down 40 Jap­ anese planes, held by his friends and neighbors to the tiny village of Pop­lar in northwestern Wisconsin, is indicative of the personality and character traits of Bong the man. Shnnned LimeUghL Bong never considered himself a famous personage. He never thought he was a hero and he con­ sistently refused to accept the plaudits of the crowd. Inherently shy and overly modest, he shunned attempts of friends to place him in the limeligbt. It is a matter o f record-that he usually ,tried to pass toe . glory on to others — -to his ground erew, his fligbtmates and even to parents of all serv­ icemen. It was his statement that “the real heroes of this war are toe parents who sit and . w ait.at home and suffer the real tortures.” ■Although Bong to early childhood showed keen interest to aeronau­ tics and flying, it is doubtful that he ever thought he would realize, an ambition to pilot a plane. He would gaze longingly at planes that passed over his father’s farm, dreaming in awe at the miracle of flight. Planned to Teach. 1 Of modest circumstances, - he looked forward to a teaching career to his native state. To this end he was enrolled at Superior State Teachers college to Superior, Wis., during the days that fate was sweeping America towards war. By. May of 1941 Dick had entered the army. In November he was ac­ cepted as an air cadet. That Bong Was an apt pupil and skillful to the handling of airplanes was indicated soon after his. training started.' In January, 1942, he was made an in­ structor at Luke Fielji. In Septem­ ber of'that same year he was on his way to the Pacific theater, where he accomplished the deeds how so well known to the world. ‘Probables’ Unrecorded.Other'airmen, hailing his record Of ,“kills,” have -stated that Bong shot down at least 9 or 10 more planes than he was credited with, but that because of his' rather un­orthodox methods of air-fighting, these never were recorded official­ ly. He had a habit of trailing his enemy to doom and consequently no witnesses were on hand to verify these probables. . • Of. further interest is the obser­ vation that the majority of Bong’s missions were accomplished .at long range; he flew hundreds of miles most of the time before encountering actual combat. Even so, he man­ aged to outscore all pilots, not only to the Pacific area but also on the European , front. His success and skill no donbt were accounted for by.his ac­ curate “eye.’’ It was an ac­ cepted fact that Dick’s eyesight was most unusual, for he could sight an enemy plane quicker than anyone else In his squad­ron. Once he got on the trail of a Zero, it whs almost 'certain ., death for his foe, for he rarely ; missed. Around his home town of Poplar friends will tell • you even today that Bong had a real hunter’s in­ stinct. His mother has said that -Dick observed things to the dark that others would miss.

Bong, Wiscon­ sin farm youfh, was America’s ace w ar pilot, being credited with 49 Jap planes before he was killed in a test flight. of Honor by General MacArthur on Leyte island. Test Fiight .Fatal. ..Major Bong scored his 40th Jap plane to December, 1944, and not long afterwards he was ordered back to the United States for spe­ cial duty. He was made a test pilot -and it was while flying an army jet- propelled fighter that the accident occurred which cost his life an .Au­ gust 6, 1945. Two days later he was buried to the quiet little country cemetery at Poplar. The foundation bearing Dick Bong’s name was organized by then and women from all walks of life. Its objective is to perpetuate the memory of deeds' of all; American airmen of World War II, as sym­bolized in the valor of Major Bong. This it proposes to do through awarding engineering scholarships to high school graduates and through erection of a shrine at Pop. Jar. K '?Cos HARDY ANIMALS . . . In an attem pt to fill the need felt by cattle­ m en In cold regions of North America for a breed of beef cattle which would w eather sub-zero conditions, A. S. M acLellan, dominion herds­ m an-at W ainwright, Alta., Canada, started crossing m ale beef cattle with buffalo cows 25 years' ago. The result was “Cattalo.” Today die Cattalo looks more like a. domestic anim al than a buffalo al­ though it has inherited the tatter’s . robust qualities and size. In w eather which would freeze cattle, The Cattalo survives. After the third generation .the buffalo hum p,has been bred out, reproduction bred to, so crossbreeding was dropped. Qnality of toe beef is equal to th at of the Aberdeen Angus, Shorthorn and Hereford.

Most of the „ victims will walk with the traffic and will come from Iiehtody parked cars to be struck down, me association reports on the basis ot a study of fated accidents. Other pedestrians will meet death whtie crossing a t' intersections against the signal arid 'while cross­ ing diagonally across the street. - Pedestrian fatalities increase around' the hour of sunset to all seasons . of -the year, the survey shows, with the greatest number to mishaps between 7 p. m. and 8 p . m. during the summer months.

S O U TH E R N RAILW AY SYSTEM T H E D A V IE RECO RD, M O C K SV ILLE, N . C. * J U * J fo m e f e f w d e b in WASHINGTON By W olter Sheod WW(I Cemtpondnt WNV Washington Bureau, 1(16 Eye S t.. W. W, W eak N ew O PA B ill C ontrols B y 'P sych ological’ M eans ENACTMENT of the new OPA ■*-' bill, weak as it is, may have a ’ psychological if not an actual hand in controlling prices, this report* er believes. Although it is a hodge­ podge of conflicting ideas, it is def­ initely better than nothing. As the result of this bill, for all practical purposes. Agricultural Sec. Clinton P. Anderson becomes the new boss of the food price con­ trol. Although the law places final authority in the three-man decon­ trol board, the cumbersome admin­ istrative process gives the secre­ tary exclusive authority to recom­ mend to the board. In all likelihood the, policy of the board will be set in accordance with the policy of Mr. Anderson. One of the secretary’s well known views is the elimination of food sub­ sidies. As a matter of fact, pres­ ent prices on foods, except some which have soared beyond all reas­ on and which are in short supply, are believed by the agricultural boss to reflect the ceiling prices of June 30, when OPA control went off, plus subsidy costs. Elimination of government subsidies are be­ lieved to account for -an approxi­ mate 10 per cent increase on foods formerly subsidized, and, with an­ other 5 per cent added on, the pre­ diction is that most foods will level off. at about a 15 per cent increase. BeneSt to ‘Little Man’ This brings into focus again the endless argument, is it cheaper for the general public to pay govern­ ment subsidies than to pay for a 10 per cent increase in food prices at . the retail level? And the am swer is, it is cheaper for the little fellow, those millions whose in­ come is $3,000 a year and under, be­ cause he doesn't pay the subsidy in federal taxes. At any rate, the government at this writing is not paying out a dime for food subsidies on meat or dairy products. Subsidies went out with the old OPA .in June. If, however, meat and other products go back under price ,control, it wffl be a question for the agriculture boss and the decontrol board to decide whether or not to reinstitute sub­ sidy payments as a policy or to do something else about control.. The new law ends all subsidies by April I, 1947. The mere fact, however, that the decontrol board has the authority under the new law to reinstate price ceilings without consulting industry or without giving-advance notice, we believe will act as a psychologi­ cal threat which at least will make industry and producers a little cau­ tious about boosting prices beyond reason.. Oppoeed to. Subndies ' Farm organizations, ahd .the dairy industry have been fighting for elimination of food subsidies for years, declaring that the treasury should not pay the public’s grocery bill and that farm produce should go to market-and be sold at a fair price fixed by supply and demand. They now have won that fight, at least temporarily. Subsidies are off. These subsidies in two categories have amounted to a .little over three billion dollars annually. In theory farmers are supposed to make up for loss Cf this three billion in- increased prices. But'will this be true? There is every reason to believe that the cost of everything the farm­ er buys will rise considerably. With the old OPA gone, cost ab­ sorption by industry is also out and this means quick price gains for many goods to as higb as 9 per cent. The farmer gained- only 10 per cent by elimination of subsidies. And in addition- there will be many in­ creases in manufacturing costs which later will be seen in the re­ tail selling price . . . fencing, build­ ing materials, all kinds of farm ma­ chinery,'commodities of every de­ scription . . . and .there are many experts here who predict at least a 15 per cent rise to these things the farmer buys to equal the 15 per cent increase to food costs,-. \ Farmer May Feel Better I So the question of whether the farmer to-better off with or with­ out subsidies is still a moot ques­ tion and likely will be. One thing, however, the average farmer, in­ dependent as hi is, may feel bet­ ter to knowing'that the price he re­ ceives from his products, whether they are high or low. prices, is not In part a government hand-out Meanwhile, farm leaders here are getting set through these next few months for the new 80th congress, which, convenes Januaby 3. They have important measures, passed over by the old congress, which they will reintroduce for action . . . a new parity definition, which to the legal basis for price support . A long. range program, meas­ ured to the light of war experience and to the new concept of the world picture for agriculture is likely to develop.

Mental IUttess CUmes In addition to 32 clinics already authorized, .the Veterans’, adminis­ tration has directed the establish­ ment of as many such clinics as necessary to the 70 regional' offices tor the treatment of mental ill­ nesses among war veterans. According -to the announcement, the need for treatment of these emotional and nervous diseases is evident and experience In civilian practice both before and during the war indicates that a majority of such cases can be treated in clinics without hospitalization. In the mental hygiene program, emphasis, will be placed on group therapy which is the simultaneous treatment of a number of veter­ ans suffering'from similar mental or emotional disturbances. The neuropsychiatrist, clinical psycholo­ gist and social worker will co-oper­ ate as a team to these clinics to treating the patient. Questions and Answers-’ Q. Can my daughter, who is ,en-. gaged to a young fellow overseas, book passage on. a boat and be m ar­ ried to him while he is still in serv­ ice in Germany?—S. F ., H avre do Grace, Md. A. The war department says the procedure is for the girl to write the boy telling him to get permis­ sion from the commanding general, European theatre, for entrance of the girl into the area for the pur­ pose of his marriage. When he re­ ceives thto letter of permission from the commanding general, he should mail it to the girl. She will then take the letter along with passport application to the state department and apply for passport and visa to get overseas. She then must ar­ range for her passage and pay her own way. - Q. My husband was in the army three years, from 1905 to 1909, and vas in the Gte Indian campaign. Would he be entitled to a pension? He is not disabled from military service.—Mrs. R. F. J., Mahtowa, Mina.A. There is provision for both dis­ ability and death pensions for In­ dian wars. I am not sure,' how­ ever, whether these provisions ap­ ply to the period 1905 to 1908. They apparently apply to earlier Indian wars. However, to b e. sure, you should take it up with your near­ est Veterans’ administration office. Q. I am a World War H veteran and would like to sta rt farm ing. I kept hearing over the radio that I could get a lean from the banks under the G .I. bill of rights. Well, I went to the bank and they said I had to have capital to get S'loan but how can I have that when I served three years in the- arm y? Is there any chance of m e get­ ting a loan so that I could sta rt farming?—R. L K., Winslow, IB . A. Provisions of this law are that the Veterans’ administration will approve a loan up to $4,000 for an eligible veteran, if the lending in­ stitution will make the loan. The bank or other lender is the judge of whether or not the veteran is a good risk and is likely to succeed at his venture. - Q. My son was discharged-from the arm y in February, 1946. He was overseas 25 months and while in the arm y he had to work, so hard he could not rest a t night and would wander around in his sleep. Since he is a t home the sam e thing hap­ pens, when he works hard- He eah’t get any re st, a t night. He wasn’t this-w ay .until-he went into the arm y. Would it be possible Uiat he is eligible for a disability pay? —M rs. J. I,. E ., Hickory F lak M iss. A. It might be possible. The only way to find out is for your son to apply to your nearest office of the Veterans’ administration and ask for an examination and disability rat­ ing. Q. My son was killed in.action in World W ar H . His insurance was m ade to h is. m other. We are di­ vorced'. I am 55 y e an old and not' able to work. Can I draw a de­ pendent parent’s pension? U so, how much and where shall I apply?— D. V. M ,, Ferguson, W. Va. A. Yes, although divorced, as a dependent father you should, be en­ titled to $25 per month. Make app& catjon to-the Veterans’ administra­tion office at Huntington. . Q- My- husband to a veteran- of; World W ar I, serving overseas 11 m onths. He has a 50 per cent perm anent' disability. given in 1230. This disability becomes worse. Is he eligible for pension? U so, where can he get help?—M rs. M. L ., F ort Fayner Ato. ___ A. .Your husband evidently had a ' disability rating from the Veterans’ administration which ’ likely was wiped out Iqr the economy act of 1933. Suggest that he contact his nearest office'of the Veterans’ ad­ ministration for a new disability rating. B read M akes th e Pudding! (See Recipes Below) D on’t W aste B read! Most of us don’t think it matters onejway or the other whether we throw away a stale slice of bread, but, if each family were to save a slice of bread every day;; the amount would feed many mil­ lions of hungry families who are less fortunate. Small families, particularly find that the average loaf of bread dries rather quickly, and there are sev­ eral slices within the week that are regarded as unfit for sandwiches. But there are literally thousands of uses for such bread. . Why not start on a personal campaign of your own just to see. how much you can save by using every scrap of bread well? Spread the word to your friends and neigh­ bors, and let’s see if we can’t really save, food, which is the equivalent of putting dollars and cents in your pocketbook?

Labor Day tomorrow! And much in the thinking of all America will be the right division of the fruits of investment of tim e'and money. Property 1 righto, are fundamental. God’s Word teaches us. the proper attitude toward our own rights and the rights of others; namely, hon­esty, yes, just plain old-fashioned honesty. In such a time, the believer in Christ needs to be doubly vigilant lest- he accommodate his own stand­ards-of honesty to those of the world. I. Honest In Purpose (Exod. 20:15). W e' cannot 'tolerate anything in word-or deed that can-be regarded as stealing what belongs to another. The . very commandment against stealing'implies that men have a right to that which they have made, earned or saved. If no . one had any property rights there could be no stealing. Some of our modern political and social isms deny such rights, but their reason­ ing is clearly not biblical or Chris­tian. “Thou shalt not steal,” forbids ev­ ery kind of theft, and this includes more than robbery- or ordinary stealing (see Lev. 19:11-13). , It relates to every kind of false dealing .with another, such as op­ pression or the withholding of-just wages. That, too, is stealing in God’s sight. Perhaps we ought to De more specific and apply the truth to our own day. Stealing includes such things as loafing on one’s job, bor­ rowing money from the cash draw­ er, taking goods from the stock with which one is working, stealing an­ other man’s sermon and preaching it as one’s own, lifting material out of another man’s book, without cred­ it, contracting dehts which one can never pay, using false weights and measures, adulterating food or oth­ er material, "watering” milk for sale, selling worthless stock, dodg­ ing taxes or lying to. the tax as­ sessor, or using a slug instead of a nickel in the telephone to escape proper payment. One might add gambling (which is taking another man’s property by skill or by chance), making an un­ duly large profit on the labor of another, making money out of the sorrows and failures of others, etc. To be honest means to be fair, and that has broad implications. - n . Humble in Practice (Prov. 30: 7*9).' / ' ; It may sound a little odd to hear this man pray that he should be de­ livered from prosperity. To ask to be kept from- poverty is certainly to make a wise request, but to be delivered from riches,- why .-that’s certainly not, sensible. So reasons the,world, but as usual, it is entire­ly wrong. Experience has demonstrated thqt the man who has an abundance of good things usually becomes self- satisfied, assuming that he deserves the credit for his affluence, he for­ gets God, and what had been a good and useful life is soon destroyed. On the other hand, it is trUe that extreme poverty tends to break down a man’s morale. Watching bis family starve is not conducive to honesty if a man Sflh lay his hands on something to save them, whether it be his or not. We do not justify stealing at any time, but we can well understand that starvation can turn the mind of a normal man into abnormal channels. m . Heavenly in Principle (Malt.6:25-28). The Bible is concerned almost en­ tirely with life on this earth. It tells us very little about heaven except how to go there. But (and here is the important point for us just how) it does give us laws from heaven for life on earth. Our life here, our attitude, toward property, is to be heavenly in principle. -We are not to be anxious (the correct translation of “take ho thought,” vv. 25, 27, 31) about our life, about food, raiment and'Other necessary things. Proper fore­ thought is all right, but worry? Never! How shall these’things b e pro­ vided? God will provide. Consider the birds. Do they have nervous breakdowns about where their food and shelter are to come from? They cannot even pray and they are not able to work, and yet God feeds them. Consider the glory of the flowers of the field, for not even a king can dress as they. The Lord does it. “Are ye not much better than they?” What about the future? It is In God’s hands, and even if it were in our hands what could we do with it? Even tomorrow with its needs,- its blessings, its joys and its sor­ rows is not here yet, and when it does comes there will come with it God’s gracious provision (v. 34).
