Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. It should be the sincere desire of all mankind to do good. This is God’s will tor us, and when we do His will He alwavs blesses ns in a wonderful way, Ottr blessed Lord, when he was on earth in bodily form, "went about doing good,” thus leaving an example that we should follow. No one ever regrets doing all the good he can as he journeys throu life, bnt we believe every one, soo­ ner or later, regrets dotng harm. It is quite natural that men come to the place in life where they Te gret living in sin and wickedness, destroying good in their own lives, and likewise destroying good in the lives of others O the remorse that men suffer for doing I arm! They can look back across the years of their lives and see where they have wasted their time and talent, and perhaps destroyed their health and squandered their means and neglected their souls, and in the meantime have done much harm to others, therefore they suf­ fer regret that is oftentimes deep and pungent. However, when we live for God across the years ot life, pray much, read and stndy His holy Word, and live by it, and then go about doing goad to others, we have much to rejo;ce over. This makes life happy. Our. consciences are clear and our faces shine through the love and grace of God Hallelu­ jah! My great, outstanding desire is to do all the good I can, there­ fore I have preached the blessed Gospel tor more than 34 years and have written enough to make more than sixty volumes, which have been published in many publics- tions up and down tbe laud. At present I have three books that I am endeavoring to get into the homes of the people. The titles of these books are: “Lost Gems Of The American People,” Our Re­ fuge And Fortress,” and ''Keepers At Home." The rice is 50 cents per copy. However, I am sending forth these books free to lots of people, especially tbe sick and af­ flicted, shut-ins. and those in pris­ on. If my readers will send me the names and addresses of such people, and those whc may be poor and need”, and can’t buy books, J shall be glad to mall the books to them free. Please help me do good by sending me the names ot such people. If vou will enclose four cents in stamps to mail the books with. I shall appreciate it How­ ever, send the names wbethet you enclose a stamp or not. Let’s do all the good we can Tliis life will soon be over, therefore it will be wonderful to meet God and know tbat we have lived for Him and blessed the world. Address all mail to me at Hiddenite. Meat Prices To Stay High Cattle prices advanced at corn- belt stockyards tbe past week and a spokesman for tbe ' ' bntcb ers predicted that the present in. crease in retail meat prices would ' be with us until next Fali.” Retail beef prices have risen as much as to per cent in many cities during tbe last three weeks, with a tontrobuting factor a seasonal slump in farm-to market shipments. George Dressier, executixe sec­ retary of tbe National Association of Retail Meat Dealers, said the prices bnd been moderate and that there were plentiful supplies of meat available. ”Bnt.’' be said, “consumers with tenderloin and porterhouse appeti. tes should turn to beef stew.” He said the across-lhe counter price increases wonld “stay with ns” until nt least late August when Fall slaughtering of grass fed cat. tie start. John Public Is Fair Worried a bit by all the charges being bruited about anentthe “ex­ orbitant” profits of retailers et a I in this hevday of high prices a Ten nessee grocer has hit upon a novel scheme. He marks every item item in his stock at actual cost to pay for bis goods. Then he leaves it up to tbe customers to decide how much profit he should have on each item At the end of the first week un. der his new plan the grocer dis­ covered that his business bad dou bled. Possibly to his surprise, moreover, he found that his profit ran a little above average on the1 goods sold. Both tbe merchant and bis cus- tomerf aoperr to have learned some­ thing from the experiment. Tbe mercbunt discovered that the aver­ age man oi woman is fair-minded. His customers learned that the gro­ cer wasn’t “mopping up” with high profits when they saw his in­ voices which be displayed, and they were quick to realize that he could not maintain his business without a reasonable margin of profit A few customers bought goods at cost, but their conscience wouldn’t allow them to do it many times. The vast majority of human be­ ings are willing to give the other fellow a fair break. One of the most successful of all American businessmen made a fortune au the slogan, “Let the other fellow make some money, too ” The average man is not opposed to fair'business profits He is aware of the iarge losses which merchants suffer thru spoilage, carry overs and other fac­ tors, and of the high rents that are charged in main business districts. If all of us could be let in on the secrets of business generally as the Tennessee grocer’s customers were on his, it is to doubt whether we would demand many radical chan ges in the national commercial pro­ fit structure. If we did, the de­ mand would not be for a change that would prevent an honest busi ness man from making a fair profit. —TwinrCity Sentinel. Mr. Gore Is Welcome To His Issue Representative Gore of Tennes IJi: House Appropriations Committee, has been accusing tbe Republicans of (Rtlf preteodlne; to iedure Fci eral spending and of being quite unable to accomplish anything sub- slanfial along that line. Tbe ac­ tion of the Republican majority on the committee in lopping nearly 400 million doll rs off the estimates for tbe Department of Agriculture left him singing a different song. “We will take this fight to tbe voters next year.” he said threat eningly. Bepublicnns will hope that he does just that. Tbe farmers of the corn belt know as well as anyone knows tbat the scale of spending which Mr Gore wishes to retain was establish in a period of deep dfpressiou which was particular hard on farmers. The fanners know also tbat theirs is now a peos perous business and that they are heavily taxed on that account, They stand tq save much more from au income tax cnt than they would receive in added income if the Truman program had been ap­ proved unchanged They are not so self-centered as to believe that all appropriations except those for agriculture can be trimmed —Ex, This is some country of ours.

OPA Fades Out The much “cussed and discuss, ed” Office of Price Aoministration finally passed out of the picture on Saturday, May 31, So -ended quiet­ ly a government bureau which has cansed more controversy than anv other in the modern history of Washington. Grnrabling tolerated during the war, criticism of the bureaucracy and Its unscientific and often stub born positions became increasingly Iounder until at the close of the campaign in 1946 the scarcity of meat and other commonly nsed household articles iue to OPA price control hecame the dominant political issue So violent was the litical reaction to the OPA because of the scarcity of meat .hat Presi­ dent President Truman decontrol! ed meat a few days before the elec­ tion In Novenber and December, before tbe Republicen Congress could have a whack at control, President Trumaa practically com­ pleted the job. Near the end, the only friends of tbe GPA were the CIO PAC and the lunatic left-wing fringe. During its final days all the OPA had left was control of sugar and rents. The duties of controlling these have been tnrned over to the other departments In ihe fall control over sugar will be lifted un less the Department of Agricnltnr.. tute decide to do it sooner. Thestorv of tbe OPA is the his­ tory of a bureau which throught itself bigger than the laws of na ture and economy, and then learn­ ed to its sorrow ibat it wasn’t quite that laroe. But at any rate tbe OPA has passed out of tbe picture, taking with it the fond hopes of all left. wingers who wanted to regiment A. merican life into the European way. And as Shakespeare wrote of his character in Masbeth1 ‘'Nothing in his life became him like the leaving it ’’—Ex.______________ You Figure It Out Greensboro Daily News. No wizard at figures are we, but if we were, we’re confident we couldn’t find the answer to tbe problem which Woshington pro­ nouncements and developments there and in tbe hinierland have BiliMriwwikiBp word?-to compound. There is assurance from highest places that prices can, should and must come down to stop inflation, strengthen the national economy and avert what in its mildest form would be a rocession. But simultaneously with these pronouncements, there are govern­ mental acceptance of a 15 cents an hour increase for the nation’s wage pattern, with John L. Lewis de­ manding a hike for his miners sharply on tbe rise of that figure; congressional sanction of a 15 per cent jump in rents; food costs stim, ulated by subsidies and heavy gov ernment buying, and general lift­ ing of local tax rates as in Guil- ford County and Greensboro; all of which must come, in the final ex. traction, out of massed consumers. Aod now those of the mathemat­ ical experts among the congrega- tion who think they can get any- where stnoe tbe factors in the prob Iem mentioned at the outset of this piece have bfen laid before them are at perfect liberty to take their pens, pencils, scratch-paper and figuring ability off into any con­ venient corner and go to it. The only people who make no mistake are dead people. I saw a man last week who bad not made a mistake tor four thousand years.

Congress Represents The People Recently tbe governors of most of tbe Far Western States met and jointly denounced the ac ion of the House in heavily reducing appro priations for the Reclamation Bu reau which would have largely been used for the construction of tax-exempt government electric generating plants and related faci­ lities The governors annouced that they wonld make a concerted demand on Congress to restore the funds to their original figure, on the grounds tbat the future wel fare and industrial development of the West is at stake. Here is a perfect example of why economv in government has become so difficult a goal to achieve. The plain an ominous fact is tbat we have come to look on tbe Fed­ eral Treasury as a bottomless pit which may be raided at will for any region’s pet projects. AU of us are strongly in favor of a re- ducsd budget—so Ioog as budget reductions don’t affect us. Gov­ ernors, senators, representatives, mayors and a host of minor officials shriek to high heaven when ever a nickel is slicked from an appropria­ tion for their states and towns. Another plain and ominous fact is tbat we have lost local indepen­ dence and local self reliance. We want the Federal Government atO spend billious for purposes which are clearly within the provinces of local government or of private busi. ness enteepr se. Aed thus, we are sureiy and swiftly building a super government with all the threats to freedom and independance that su pergovernment inevitably inplies. It is senseless to blame Congress for waste and prodigality when the people at home who cast tbe voies demand a continuation of un- neccessary spending. Congress sim­ ply represents a distillation of the vo'ce of tbe people. In the long run, the people are given what they ask for—and it is the people who must choose between supergovern ment of limited powers with its firm guarantee of maximum freedom for all.—Union Republican.

Baruch, one of the great Elder Statesmen of America, recently gave his countrymen some wise advice. The world, he said “can get go­ ing ohly if men work,” and “if we accept the challenge to preserve civilization, it means greater effort than that exerted during the war.” He pointed to the pressing need for maximum production, with no strikes and no layoffs, in the future, And then he said; ‘'Un­ less we work, we shall see a vast inflation. Unless we work, we shall not be able to maintain our claim to power. That would be the greatest blow we could re­ ceive, for it would strip us of our strengto to preserve our way of life.” W e have sought for an easy way to do things—and we have found that no such way exists. W e have wanted every luxury, but we have not wanted to labor to earn it. Our whole philosophy of late has more and giving less. Capital, la­ bor, agriculture, the consumer— indictment lit! of them all. No country has ever undergone a great inflation and kept its in­ stitutions free. N o country has ever turned to government to solve every real or imagined do - mestic difficulty and escaped from degrading itsalf into some hind of a totalitarian state. Freedom is not imperisable. It m ust be earn ed, and it must be constantly de­ fended. Mr. Bamch pointed to a ehoice that cannot long be postponed.

He teUs her that her broth- a. Ric, is seeing a divorcee and sue goes to camp to investigate. Rle avoidsHer blit she later sees Um wita swara Calvert, an older, hardened woman. Captain Macfcey, known as “Old Cy- anide," tells her he Knew her mother many years ago. She feels she knows him. Sprang calls to say good-bye. Later, while riding with Dave Patter­ son, a family friend secretly in love with her mother, Julia, she Is thrown from her horse and taken to a hospital. That night Richard returns from the dead to visit Julia. CHAPTER X Julia ignored the interruption. “He spent two months trying to find something, some record, some grave —anything that would end our sus­ pense. He went through dozens of hospitals, even the insane places; he even went out with crews of m en who were opening graves! It was a nerve-racking experience for him —and not too happy for m e, Rich­ ard.” “ S o r r y .” H e le t h is g a z e f a n , le t h is c la s p e d h a n d s d a n g le b e tw e e n his knees. “I didn’t think you’d be concerned. I thought you’d be re- lie v e d to b e r id o f m e ,” “ Y o u r c o n s c ie n c e m u s t h a v e b e e n more acute than we gave you cred­ it for,” said his father, scornfully. “If it hadn’t been for Julia’s ob­ stinacy, I’d have had you declared legally dead long ago.” Richard laughed, a short, difficult bark. “Legally, I am dead. Rich­ ard M cFarlane no longer exists. Not on any record or roster, at least. I’ve been Roger Mackey for twenty years now. There was a lot of confusion after the arm istice, and I happened to come into posses­ sion—accidentally, of course—of a passport and some other papers. It suited m e not to be Richard Mc- Farlane any longer. I wanted to start over. I stayed on in Paris for a few years and did pretty well—” “Gambling, as usual?” This from John I. Richard’s mouth lifted in a con­ descending, m irthless smile. That smile, too, was an aching piece of Julia's remem bering. “I got along,” he said, “in various ways. And then things got rather nasty in France—there was all that argum ent about the debts, Amer­ icans weren’t popular—so I cam e back to this country. I didn’t know anything to get into—things w ere a little tough here too, you rem em ­ ber? So I went back to the arm y. This fellow—this Mackey1 whose papers I had—had a commission. I got it renewed, I asked for service in Hawaii and got it. Then last year they sent m e back. I’m at Ridley Field now.” Almost Julia cried out. Ric was at Ridley Field. But she caught herself in time, m ad^ a little move­ m ent toward her father-in-law, beg­ ging for silence. He caught the gesture, or perhaps he did not re­ m em ber, did not connect Ric with any of this. The old forgot easily. Richard m ust not know about Ric. AU their lives she had built their father up to heroic stature for her children, m ade him a splendor to adm ire, but knowing aU the while what a false and crum bling foun­ dation she built upon, how danger­ ous w as the structure she raised if a fierce wind blew upon it. But she m ust not destroy it now. She m ust not tear Richard down, offer that ruin to Richard’s son. She m ust not destroy that pictured in­ heritance of gaUantry. Ric was not strong and courageous like JiU. He had all the weaknesses of the Mc- Farlane m en; if he had inherited any strength from her it was latent, it had not begun its growth. Now she could not risk giving him a fa­ ther who had callously abandoned him even before he had learned to speak that father’s nam e. Sor she said, rather flatly, “You were at Pearl Harbor, Richard?” His face changed, twisted. His eyes shifted. “ Yes, I was there­ at Hickam Field. Now I’m a t Rid­ ley. But I’ve worked for what I’ve got in the arm y.” “So,” Julia let her breath out, thankful—oh, so terribly thankful that Jill w as ’away! “So you are Roger Mackey now. But why, Rich- ard—why? AU. this talk, and I stiU don’t understand it. You m ust not have cared about us at all. You didn’t w ant to see us again, your own father—your own children?” “I did think about the kids, of course," he said, “ and you, too, Dooley. But I hadn’t been a very successful husband. You were pret­ ty weU fed up with m e when I left.” A Three-Way Conversation “I was nineteen years old!” Julia protested. “I’d loved you and m ar­ ried you, and then I’d been left alone, for weeks at a tim e—not knowing where you were, even hun­ gry! I had a baby, and then I was going to have another right* away— and then it was war, and John I. got that commission for you, be­ cause he thought w ar was what you needed—that it m ight quiet that restlessness in you—and so you went away. And left m e with noth­ ing! Nothing but this shabby old house, this mortgaged land—and no one to tom to till Dave Patterson BY HiUl&n happened to come to Washington, and he found m e and sent for John I." "I gave you money when I had it, Dooley,” he said. "And borrowed it back again when the horses were running at Bowie!” she thought bitterly, but s h e d id n o t s a y i t . S h e s a i d d u lly , “You m ust have been very sick of m e. I m ust have cried too much, been frightened too much, left alone there in that cheap little flat. It was m y fault, perhaps. I was too young. I’d always had people to take care of m e. I w as silly enough to think that all women were, cared for when they m arried; it w as quite a shock when I learned that that wasn’t always true. I know I m ust have failed you in a lot of ways, Richard. I m ust not have been a strong person then—a strong wom­ an m ight have changed you. But you failed m e, too, Richard. You failed us all!” “Don’t blam e yourself, Dooley. The whole thing was a m istake. I m erely happened to realize that be- “B ut you just can’t come back this way—from the dead.” fore you did. I took the best way out of it, for you and for every­ body.” “ You took a coward’s way out,” said his father. “Now—now that you’re getting old and life isn’t so gay and adventurous as it used to be, I suppose you think you should come back here and find a wel­ come? Find things exactly as they were before.” Richard flared. His eyes took on that icy look that JuUa rem em ­ bered. “Have I said that? Have I asked for anything?” “Not yet. But you’ve m ade no decent excuse or explanation ei­ ther. You walked out on JuUa and left her to struggle alone—” “Not alone, John I. You’ve been a rock under m y feet, you’ve been m y strength and courage when I faltered!” “You were all I had, Dooley,” he said gently, “you and those kids.” “They’re pretty weU grown up now, I suppose?” Richard changed the subject with the facile ease that had always been his gift. “How are they?” "They’re very well.” She would not teU him anything. Not about Ric, not about JiU’s accident, noth­ ing. He had no right to know. He had no rights a t all. “Richard is twenty-seven, JiH’s twenty-six,” Richard Offers No Solution “Makes a m an feel old. Are they like you, Dooley?” Richard asked. “They’re entirely unlike. But they’re both M cFarlanes.” “M arried, either of them ?” “No, they’re not m arried.” “At least I’m not a grandfather!” he said, smiling thinly. "WeU, PU push along. Due back for reveiUe tomorrow. Have to drive aU night to m ake it.” “But, Richard, what happens now?” JuUa cried. “W hat are you going to do?” He faced her, and she felt herself receding, shrinking as she had al­ ways done when he looked at her with that cold, blue stare. “W hat happens now depends on you, Dooley. As for what I’m go­ ing to do—so far as I know, noth­ ing!” “But—you can’t just come back this way—from the dead!” “I’ve never been dead. I cam e back because suddenly I wanted to see you, hear your voice again. If you m ean shall I go back to being Richard M cFarlane again, the an­ swer is no. It would be awkward and em barrassing. I’m in the arm y. There’s w ar going on. TiU it’s over, I’U concentrate on that.” “ Richard, I’ve had twenty-five years of suspense. Surely you can spare m e any m ore.” ’ “If you create suspense for your-self, Dooley, I won’t be able to do anything about it. But why createit? I’m assuming that to you I am not your husband any more.” “But you are m y husband! Even th o u g h y o u c h o o s e to m a s q u e r a d e and wear a false nam e, though you’ve ignored m e for more than half our lifetimes, though you knew where I was, when one word from you would have ended all this m is­ ery of uncertainty for m e, you are still the m an I was m arried to, Richard. You’re still m y children’s father. Nothing can change that.” “You can change it if you like, Dooley.” “How can I change it? You m ean I can divorce you? How can I divorce a m an who doesn’t exist? How could I explain it to your chil­ dren?” “The kids do complicate things, don’t they? They might like m e if they knew me. Though perhaps you’ve already attended to that?” “I’ve given them a hero for a fa­ t e ! " J i a flamed. “You did that for yourself, Dooley, not for me. You’re a proud woman, your pride wouldn’t let you keep a man in your life unless he w a s h e r o ic . A n d y o u d o n ’t w a n t your pretty picture tom to pieces now by the dism al reality. So I’ll take myself off. You wouldn’t want to shake hands, F ather?” John I. thrust his hands into his pockets, drawing in his brows. “No, I wouldn’t! You m ake me asham ed that I am also a M cFar- lane.” Without a word Richard walked out of the house. They heard his car roar off* down the drive. John I. sank into a chair and dropped his head into his hands. Julia went quietly and kissed the thinned spot on the top of his head. Kie did , not speak. David was m ourning the unworthiness of Ab­ salom, and there were no words to touch the dignity of that grief. She went numbly, groping for the stair rail, up to her room. Somehow, always, she had known! Always, unaware perhapsat times, she had been waiting for this, feeling the pressure of odd, uncertain dread. There was a strange and psychic bond, a vibra­ tion that lived on between two peo­ ple who had been m arried, and she knew now that that quivering tie lived on, bridging years and si­ lence, binding her to Richard, even though the bond w as bitter. Eventu­ ally it had drawn him back to her. She had seen the nostalgia in his eyes, though he had tried to hide it behind Ids old, cool arrogance. And now what? W hat lay ahead? W hat threatened her, her peace of mind, her pride for her children?, There was Ric. W hat if Richard found out about Ric, learned where he was, m ade contact with his son? And then there was Dave. She knew that Dave loved her, with another kind of love, deeper, finer—no fire or passion, no young fever, but the lasting love of a man- who would cherish a woman forever. Julia flung herself down on the bed. “Oh, Dave!” her heart cried out. “Now that it’s too late, I do love you! And what am I going to do?” Jill turned her head on the pil­ low, eased her body from the cram p of her splinted arm and taped shoul­ der. __ “Dooley, you look simply ghast­ ly!” she said. “I’ve never seen black hollows under your eyes be­ fore. W hat’s worrying you besides m e?” “Nothing,” Julia lied gallantly. “You’re enough for one dose. Do I look so pathetic? I m ust need some vitam ins or something. It’s miss­ ing you so m uch, I guess.” Julia Fails to Deceive Jill Jill drew the corners of her mouth in. “You’re a rotten actress, Doo­ ley. You’re corny as heck and transparent as cellophane. When you hurt inside, it shows through like veins and things under a fluoro1 scope. Have you and Dave had a fight?” ' “Of course not, silly. I haven’t seen Dave since that Sunday. An I why should we fight?” “I don’t know any good reason, but you are sort of difficult to uir derstand at tim es, Dooley. You’r« so unpredictable. I think I know what you’re thinking and feeling, and suddenly I. discover I’m all Iolg and don’t know you at all.” “I’m a m ystery woman! Humas enigma. But the fewer feelings w* all have now the better off we’ll be.” Julia was being platitudinous, she knew, and undoubtedly Jill wa« probing past that evasive defens* with her dry, shrewd young eyes “We’re fighting a lot of peopl* who’ve done away with feeling.” “And now,” said Jill, in a mock­ ing voice, “the gentlemanly usher* will pass among you, and all the ladies will deposit their ballots' is the basket, please. And don’t vot* for yourselves, girls!” she chirpe< in a bright falsetto. “Dooley, if yoi won’t talk, shut up! Don’t insult m | intelligence with that stuff!” (TO BE CONTINUED) .

T y p h o id F e v e r C la i m s D a v ie C itiz e n Typhoid fever struck a death blow in Jerusalem Township, this County, June 14, 1947. Otis Bullabough, age 33, fell sick about ■ Tune 4, 1947. His death followed ten days later. A local physician who was called after the young man had been ill several days felt reasonably certain that the signs and symptons were those of ty phoid fever and so reported the case. The local Health Department is at this time making an effort to run down the source of the in­ fection. Investigation so far re­ veals that Bullabough was careless about the source of the water he drank. And there is no record or reliable information to the effect that he had ever been vac­ cinated against typhoid fever. The Health Department and all locxl physicians are prepared to vaccinate any individul who ap plies for protection against this disease. The Health Department has repeatedly urged all citizens to look after this and not neglect to have themselves and their child­ ren vaccinated. A Typhoid Vac­ cination Clinic has just been stag­ ed over a large section of this county, but the number of appli- cants wsts comparatively light. TIie Mocksville and Cooleemee Heelth Department Clinics will continue to operate on a weekly basis right through the year. The Cooleemee Clinic, located at the Good Shepherd Church Parish House is open each Mon­ day aftamoon from 1:00 to 5:00. The Mocksville Clinic each Thurs­ day afternoon from 1:00 to 5:00 o’clock.

Farmers Repairing Equipment at Home Increased Use of Are Welding Aid to Farm World War II and the rapid ex­tension of government-approved ru­ ral power lines to meet farm pro­ duction emergencies contributed, more than any other factors, to the widespread use of transformer-type Welding being done efficiently on the farm. electric arc welders on farms. Weld­ ing was an entirely new job to most farmers when the war started, but before it had progressed many months, scores of them had become old hands at the “fix it up, make it do" trade. Thus a war-taught talent enters the peacetime picture with increas­ ing popularity. Experience showed that many broken parts could be welded satisfactorily without having to remove them from the machine and that such equipment then could be returned to the fields promptly —especially when time-saving weld­ ing jobs -were done on the farm. Also, farmers soon learned that they could use their welders to construct new equipment out of scrap parts and modify present equipment to suit their particular needs, as well as make necessary repairs. With the use of welders, discard­ ed repair parts and scrap metal can be made into feed cars, manure loaders, buck fakes, milk can trucks and racks, disc harrows and trail­ ers; broken sickle bars, tractor wheel rims and spokes, tractor hitch drawbars, spring tooth points, gears, gear teeth and sprockets can be repaired, and horse-drawn equip- ment is modified for tractor use. Merely Using Your Head Will Save Yonr Heels Is there an easier, better way to do that job? Purdue university an­ swers with: “Yes, there probably is. There is an easy and a hard way, a labor-saving and a labor-wasting way to do any job. Few of us are doing our farm job the easiest way. If we use our heads we can save our heels—as well as time, energy and expense. But we rarely take time to save time. We don’t figure out the easi­ est, most effective way—we just get the job done.” Believing that there is an impor­ tant relationship between the inten­ sity of sunlight, air temperature, the body temperature of the grasshop­ per, and where and when the pests do their eating, Professors Pepper and Hastings, Montana State col­ lege, have designed a special ther­ mocouple with which to take the temperature of grasshoppers. Crop Rotation Plan Should Be Balanced Unless a farm has a well bal­ anced rotation for its fields, the chances are that the farmer who works that land is depleting the soil and getting lower yields of the crops he grows. Dr. R. L. Cook, soils specialist at Michigan State college, says that there are several ways in which crop rotation may result in soil improve­ ment. If a cultivated crop is con­ tinuously produced on one field, the organic matter content of the field is decreased. Rotation will help to distribute or­ ganic matter over the whole farm. U.

W., Washington, D. C. WASHINGTON--There is no im­ minent danger of war between the United States and Russia. You’ve heard that before, and as far as I know, it is true. There is a diplomatic struggle go­ ing on between the two countries, the scope and importance of which few people Tealize. When I say “important,” I mean important in all senses but one- human life — in w h ich a real, shooting war is important. Cer­ tainly involved are the other two f a c to rs in th e trinity of rights to which Ameri­ cans believe they are heir—liberty and the pursuit of happiness. This has been clear to observers in W ashington w h e th e r they merely look with their eyes at the external evidence, or scent with Dews-noses the currents which are wafted over transoms and under the big oak doors of the sanctum sanctorum of the sanctis- simi. Sharp words have tumbled over one another since the first verbal barrage, which was the Presidential message of March 12, 1947, some­ times described as embodying the “Truman Doctrine.” May I remind you of a few of the barbed shafts in that message? “The very existence of the Greek state is today threatened by the ter­ rorist activities of several thousand armed men, led by Communists, who defy the government’s author­ ity at a number of points, particular­ ly along the northern boundaries . . .” said the President. “One of the primary objectives of the foreign policy of the United States is the creation of conditions in which we and other nations will be able to work out a way of life free from coercion. . . . “We shall not. realize our objec­ tives, however, unless we are willing to help free peoples to maintain their free institutions and their na­ tional integrity against aggressive movements that seek to impose upon them totalitarian regimes. This is no more than a frank recognition that totalitarian regimes imposed on free peoples, by direct or indirect aggression, undermine the founda­ tions of international peace, and hence the security of the United States. . . . “The peoples of a number of coimtries of the world have re­ cently had totaUtarian regimes forced upon them against their will. The government of the United Stotes has made fre­ quent protests against coercion and intimidation, in violation of the Xalta agreement, in Po­ land, Romania, and Bulgaria. I must also state that in a number of other countries there have been similar developments. . . (He knew what was in Oie Hungarian cards.) “One way of life is based upon the will of the majority, and is dis­ tinguished by free institutions, rep­ resentative government, free elec­ tions, guarantees of individual lib­ erty, freedom of speech and relig­ ion, and freedom from political op­ pression. . . . “The second way of life is based upon the will of a minority forcibly imposed upon the majority. It re­ lies upon terror and oppression, a controlled press and radio, fixed elections and the suppression of per­ sonal freedoms.” Strong words, those—all quoted from the Truman message. C ongress F ollow s W ords W ith A ction Then came deeds. Congress im­ plemented the President’s mes­ sage by authorizing the loan of three hundred millions to Greece and one hundred millions to Turkey. Missions were sent at once to both countries. The United States concluded with Britain arrangements for an eco­ nomic merger of their respective zones in Germany regardless of Russian (and French) failure to go along. i Then came the expected coup d’etat in which the Communists, with the Red army backing them and the aid of the Communist-con­ trolled secret police, took over the anti-Communist government of Hungary. Immediately there fol­ lowed these steps: A message of congratulation and support was sent to the Premier of Italy, Alcide de Gasperi, then in the process of forming a government without Communist co-operation and against Communist opposition. Negotiations leading to the “un­ freezing” of Italian property (in­ cluding money) in this country were announced at the same time. Hungarian credits here for surplus property supplies were cut off. There were indications that a loan earmarked for Hun­ gary would be cancelled. A Hungarian-Russian trans­ port company was told that its planes no longer could fly over the American zone in Germany. Senator Vandenberg made his ringing speech in the senate de­ claring that Soviet pressure on Hungary demanded a trial be­ fore the forum of the United Nations.” The United States pressed for set­ tlement of demands on Yugoslavia for planes shot down by Yugoslavia last summer. These and other steps which un­ doubtedly will be taken before this article is in print, and still oth­ ers in the making, are part of a vigorous foreign policy by which we mean to block Communist aggres­ sion wherever it appears in the world. In other words we have un­ dertaken a form of positive activity in the foreign field, the scope of which has never been paralleled in our history. Supporters of this policy (the ma­ jority of congress) believe it is a preventive, not an aggressive step. They do not believe it is a foreign policy which von Clausewitz, the German military authority, de­ scribed as something the “exten­ sion” of which is war. They be­ lieve it can stop, will not start, mili­ tary conflict. Possible War Of Extermination The policy is based on this theory, as nearly as I can absorb it from the people who know: Unless economic conditions are restored to normal throughout the world, chaos will result, commu­ nism will engulf Europe, and eventually the clash between com­ munism and democracy as we un­ derstand it, will mean war between Russia and the United States. Since it now is believed that Russia will have the atom bomb in from four to ten years (cf. report of the Presi­ dent’s advisory commission on uni­ versal training), such a war would mean extermination, if not of the human race, certainly of civilization as we know it. Granted this is true, the spread of communism in Europe (and else­ where) must be checked now be­ cause: If either France or Italy goes Red, Russia will not co-operate in a joint peace agreement for Germany and Austria. Without such agreement, Europe cannot be restored to nor­ mal. Chaos and communism will follow. If Russia is stopped in her tracks —if we can prevent her from mov­ ing south into Greece, Turkey and the Middle East, and west of the line she holds at present from her German zone south through the Bal­ kans to Greece, she will be forced to stop aggression in Europe; forced to co-operate with the western powers for her -own preservation. That as I understand it, is what some people call the “Truman Doc­ trine.” It isn’t quite fair to give it such an exclusive label when it never could have been put into effect without the yeoman service of men like Vandenberg and the other bi-partisan- support it has re­ceived. This does not mean that we have “lost faith in democracy” or its ability to compete in a fair field with communism. It means we are going to see that a fair field is main­ tained; that Russia will not be per­ mitted to create chaos or to draw on the type of force and terror she has used so far (latterly in Hun­ gary), to enforce her way of,life upon the world. m SUHHIff SCHOOL SITE VACANT I® WISE 3THE MMEItmr WilNT ACT t « WIWKM.

NEWS REVIEW Sugar Rationing Halted; Retail Meat Prices Soar IT’S OVER: Sugar Is Back For the first time since April 28, 1942, Americans, and especially housewives, could go shopping with­ out ration coupons as the govern­ ment called a halt to the rationing of sugar for households, restaurants and hotels. -Secretary of Agriculture Clinton Anderson announced the move, ex­ plaining that it was made possible by the appearance of larger sup­ plies of sugar than previously had been thought available. Price controls on sugar, as well as rationing of the product for in­ dustrial use will continue, however. AU sugar controls are scheduled to expire October 31 unless congress dictates otherwise. Three reasons which acted to bring about an end to sugar ration­ ing were: 1. Allotment by the Interna­ tional Emergency food council to the UniM States of 350,000 tons of sugar from Cuba in ad­ dition to that which was allotted earlier in the year. 2. Presence of still more sur­ plus sugar in Cuba, which will help eut down demands from other parts of the world. 3. About 200,000 tons of Java­ nese sugar now will be offered to world users. UP AGAIN: Meat Prices Rapid, and in some cases unex­ plained, advances in the retail prices of meat have been reported from many sections of the country. Some of the reasons offered for the price jumps were: Seasonal in­ fluences, higher feed costs, heavy foreign purchases. In a number of instances, however, packers admit­ ted that they were puzzled over the sharp increase in retail prices. Steak, which sold for 70 to 80 cents a pound six months ago, was being listed as high as $1.25 in Scranton, Pa., and a dollar in New York. In Chicago, retail meat prices experienced a general increase of 10 cents or more on popular and scarce cuts in mid-June. There was one bright prediction, however: When the autumn beef run begins, prices are expected to drop as much as 25 per cent. HARSH WORDS: Note to Russia The United States has accused Russia of using threats and coer­ cion to instigate the recent Com­ munist coup d’etat in Hungary. A strongly worded note to the Soviet union charged the Soviet commander in Hungary with violat­ ing terms of the Yalta agreement which guaranteed that liberated na­ tions would retain their sover­ eignty. Implicit, but not specifically stated, in the note was a warning that the United States will call for a United Nations investigation of the circumstances under which Hungary’s democratic regime was overthrown and Communist rule in­ stalled. Main proposal embodied in the protest was that the United States, Great Britain and Russia make a joint investigation of the political situation in Hungary. Russia previ­ ously rejected two earlier American requests for such a probe. The U. S. position is that Hun­ garian Premier Nagy was forced into exile and was compelled to re­ sign in order to make way for the Communist seizure of power. PUSHBUTTON: Look, No Hands "Pushbutton” automatic flight, a new field in aviation, was ushered in when a pilotless four-engine army transport plane landed at Wil­ mington, :Ohio, after a 2,000-mile trip from Long Beach, Calif., dur­ ing which no member of the crew touched the controls. It was the longest flight of its kind to be completed wholly by means of the pushbutton automatic sys­ tem, not to be confused with drone planes or remote control flight. In the automatic flight set-up, all necessary flight data was fed elec­ trically into a master control panel from within the plane itself. Advocates Training Dr. Karl T. Compton, chairman of commission on universal mili­ tary training,, told congress that plan for UMT was “conceived as a means of safeguarding liberty and not as a means of preparing for war.” FAVORABLE FORECAST Wheat Crop To Hit New Peak WASHINGTON.—Despite the wet, cold spring, a record-shattering wheat crop of 1,409,800,000 bushels is indicated this year, according to the department of agriculture fore­ cast based on conditions as of June I. The inclement weather, partic­ ularly in May, was unfavorable for planting of some feed grains but wheat, the forecast pointed out. The prospective wheat crop, larg­ est on record, compares with 1,275,- 000,000 bushels forecast a month ago and 1,155,715,000 bushels harvested last year, a record up to that time. The 10-year average production is 843.692.000 • bushels. The government forecast showed the winter wheat prospect to be 1.093.071.000 bushels and 316,822,- 000 bushels for spring wheat. The wet spring was responsible for a reduced acreage of oats, the report said, and a crop of only 1,247,- 333,000 bushels is in prospect. This compares with 1,509,867,000 bushels harvested last year. No estimate was made of the corn crop as it is too early in the season for a reasonable degree of accuracy, but the report said that the abnor­ mally cool, wet weather of May caused 20 to 25 per cent of the corn acreage to remain unplanted on June I, which is rather late. An unequalled winter wheat crop is in prospect for all of the Great Plains area, and Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado ex­ pect record production, the report said. While growth and develop­ ment of the crop was delayed by a cold wet spring in all but the Pa­ cific coast states, losses from wet weather have been slight to date. In the earliest sections of' Texas and Oklahoma harvest got under way around June I, ’at least 10 days later than last year. Major spring wheat states had fairly favorable weather conditions early in May, which enabled grow­ ers to plant close to their intended acreage, although seeding was somewhat later than .usual. The crop went into the ground several weeks later than usual in the Da- kotas and Minnesota, where about three-fourths of the acreage is grown, but the plantings were under favorable moisture conditions.

THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. Summer Fruits and Berries T ell Us That It's Jam Time To make jams or jellies, select ripe berries and pick them over carefully so you will have no sour or bitter taste in the jam. Wash the berries thoroughly before working with them. Although it’s the fruit or vegetable that keeps us going on the job from day to day with its vitamins and minerals, it’s the luscious fruit jams, butters or conserves that lift meals from the humdrum to the elegant. So, homemakers, plan to add delight to next winter’s meals. If you need a further excuse to make them, you may consider them from an economy standpoint, for jam on the bread or roll will not take nearly as much of the expen­ sive spreads. Fruits and berries, this season, are among the best, and are really very reasonable in price compared to what they have been previously. When you make jam, jelly, butter or conserve, make a small batch. This takes less time and allows for less failure. Cooking in small quan­ tity also saves the color of the fruit, and appearance is as important Al jam as is its eating quality. If you want some good spreads for next winter make fruit and berry butter, as these do not take as much sugar as some of the others.

It is clear, tender and sparkling. It has retained its fresh fruit or berry flavor; it holds its shape when turned from the glass, but is soft enough to be spread with a knife. For jelly it’s preferable to use containers that have a wide enough mouth from which to slip the jelly on a plate.

Test for acid by tasting. If it lacks, add some lemon juice. Fully ripe fruits make the tastiest jellies, but most of these have in­ sufficient pectin*to make jelly. It is best to use one-half ripe berries and one-half not-so-ripe ones. If you like a spiced jelly, drop a bag of mixed spices into the juice while it is first cooking. . Use wide-bottomed pans for cook­ ing the jelly so that the juice will cook quickly and not lose too much of its color while cooking. Ou- Heiitage From Ancient Israel LESSON TEXT FOR JUNE 25—Psalm 119:106; Isaiah 2:24; M icah 6:1-8. MEMORY SELECITON-He will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in Ids paths.— Isaiah 2:3. ED ITO R'S NO TE: Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Edu­cation; used by permission. B y HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D.Ot The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. A T THE end of the road the He- brew nation may have—yes, should have—stopped to look back and see what it had accomplished. Israel was now in exile, to return only in part, and with greatly limit­ ed greatness and glory. What was God’s purpose for Israel? It was threefold: (1) To be a repository for his truth in the earth. (2) To be a channel for the com­ ing of the persona] Redeemer to the earth. (3) To be a national witness to the one true God to the other na­ tions of the earth. The first two they fulfilled. They Kept for us the Word of God as re­ vealed in the Old Testament, and from their nation came most of the men through whom the Holy Spirit wrote the New Testament. It was through their nation that the Son of God came as Jesus of Nazareth, our Saviour and Lord. But they failed to be the witness that God had meant them to be— and for this they came under his judgment. Were they then a complete fail­ ure? Certainly not—our lesson makes that clear in three ways. Teachers will find the scriptures not too well selected, but they do serve as a background for these thoughts. The nation Israel showed us: I. The Enlightening Word of God (Ps. 119:105). T ET us never forget that the pre- cious Word of God, which is our light on the way through this dark, world, came to us through Jewish hands. The Old Testament', which we come to appreciate more and more as we grow in grace and knowl­ edge of the Lord, was committed to Israel by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and preserved by the Jew­ ish nation even at the cost of their own lives. Nothing was more pre­ cious to them than the sacred Scrip­ ture. We owe them a great debt of gratitude, and ought to honor* them for their service.to God and man. We may say then that the Bible, unsurpassed in all the world of literature, and beyond compari­ son as the guiding light for man’s heart and life, was given to ns through Israel. We could well say a hearty "Thank you” for that right now if we have never done it before! II. The Exalted Worship of God (Isa. 2:2-4). T 1HE prophet looks into the future to that glorious and blessed day when the nations shall have learned to live in peace and righteousness, when war shall be no more, and the worship of God shall be the de­ sire and the joy of men. When will that day come? Will it be brought in by the efforts of the church, or by conferences of nation­ al leaders? Not for a moment would we minimize the value of every true effort to spread peace and righteous­ ness through the earth. We honor those who faithfully try to bring con­ cord in the affairs of men. But the clear teaching of Scrip­ ture, which has been so abun­ dantly proved by experience, is that we can expect the delightful condition of which Isaiah speaks only when the Prince of Peace himself has returned to reign, namely, our Lord and Saviour and coming King, Jesus Christ. We look for that day! In that blessed time Israel shall worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness, even as their history under the hand of God in days past was one of true worship of the Lord. Here again they made an endur­ ing contribution to the life of the world. Then note their witness to HI. The Effective Work of God (Mic. 6:1-8). L U E HAVE here words of anoth- er Hebrew prophet. He speaks of God’s plain dealings with his peo­ ple, his judgment upon their sin, and the need of a careful and a worthy walk before him. Back of all the admonition and appeal is the remembrance of how God had worked on behalf of Israel, delivering them from bondage, giv­ ing them effective leaders, going be­ fore them in battle, in fact, prov­ ing his goodness and love by his mighty works. Israel’s service for God and man is an example of what God can and will do for those who obey him and walk with him. It is equally true that they thus re­ veal the inevitable judgment which comes upon a sinful and disobedient nation. Let us not miss that lesson, for we need it today.

Here also is the home of the rare Roosevelt elk, for the protection of which a part of the park was established as a national monument as early as 1908. On the other hand, far to the south of the Olympics in the southwestern comer of Colorado, Mesa Verde Na­ tional park preserves the ruins of a once flourishing civilization which was brought to an end by a lack of rainfall. The national parks also include two areas famous for their health-giving springs—Hot Springs National park in Arkansas and Platt National park in Oklahoma. The Olympic mountains are known to thousands of veterans of World War H who returned to Puget sound ports from the Pacific thea­ ters. From far out at sea these glistening snowy peaks were the first welcoming sight of home. Mount Olympus, nearly 8,000 feet in __________ height, and a National Parks Eighth In a Series score or more of other ice- capped moun­ tains are in­ cluded in the 1,325 square miles of Olympic National park. Occupying the heart of a great peninsula, this park is surrounded on three sides by water, the Pacific ocean on the west, the Straits of Juan de Fuca to the north and Puget sound on the east. Within a few hours of Seattle and Tacoma are virgin for­ ests, alpine meadows, deep blue lakes and sparkling trout streams, which constitute one of the finest un­ spoiled wilderness areas in the Unit­ ed States. The rain forests are found in the lower valleys on the west­ ern slopes where from Septem­ ber I to June I there is an aver­ age annual rainfall of 142 inches, nearly 12 feet. In these rain forests are Douglas firs, meas­ uring up to 17 feet in diameter and 221 feet in height. There are many miles of foot and horseback trails in Olympic Na­ tional park and a motor highway en­ circles the peninsula. From this main highway other roads radiate for short distances into the park. * * * IN THE CORNER of Colorado where the Rocky mountains meet the arid highlands of the Southwest there rises a high flat-topped table­ shaped mountain. Early Spanish explorers called it the Mesa Verde, for the table top, heavily forested with pinon and juniper, was always green. On this green mesa and in its caves and canyons peaceful farming Indians lived for 1,300 years, cultivating the soil and built their villages or pueblos. To preserve the ruins of these fascinating vil­ lages, Mesa 'Verde National park has been established. The area of the park is 80 square miles. According to archeologists the In­ dians came to America from their Asiatic homeland by the northern route thousands of years ago and for many centuries lived as roving hunters. About the beginning of the Christian Era certain of early hunt­ ers arrived in the region of the Mesa Verde. They liked the security af­ forded by this high mountain with its peculiar cliffs, and settled down to farm. First inhabitants of the Mesa Verde were known as Basket Makers for, while they made excel­ lent baskets, they had no pottery, nor did they use the bow and ar­ row. They lived in open caves and hunted with the throwing stick. Lat­ er they learned the art of pottery making, acquired bows and ar­ rows and built simple pit houses. About the time that Charles Mar­ tel was defeating the Moors at Tours, or roughly in the Eighth century, a new people joined the Basket Makers on the Mesa Verde and together they made remark­ able cultural progress. On the mesa top they built hundreds of villages, some with buildings of mud and others of stone. They improved their pottery and began the weav­ ing of cotton cloth. These people apparently were peace loving; and in the Uth century about the time that Wil­ liam tile Conqueror was land­ ing in Britain, they also were beset by enemies. Many of them, therefore, moved off the open mesa top and constructed their villages in inaccessible caves located high in canyon walls. These villages, many of them well preserved today, are astonishing both for their size and excellence of building tech­niques. Toward the end of the 13th cen­ tury, a 24-year-long drouth forced these people to abandon their cliff cities and move to more favorable lands. •. . . HOT SPRINGS National park, lo­ cated in a mountainous region of central Arkansas, contains in its thousand acres 47 mineral hot springs reputed to have therapeutic value. These springs were' known to the Indians and early Spaniards, and were used by them. Within the national park are free campsites and there is a free government bathhouse for people who cannot af­ ford to pay for private baths. . . . PLATT NATIONAL park, contain­ ing bromide and sulphur springs, is located at the town of Sulphur, Okla. Small in area, this park is known chiefly by those for whom the waters are prescribed. The park is provided with free campgrounds and picnic areas, and overnight ac­ commodations may be found in Sulphur. Jf VIRGIN FOREST . . . Large spruce trees abound along Hoh river in Olympic National park, one of the finest unspoiled wilder­ ness areas in the country. Primitive Areo Is ‘Lost Frontier’ LEWISTON, IDA. — Preservation of the 1,800,000 acres of primitive area in north Idaho as the last frontier in the United States “for all time to come” is the objective of the U. S. Forest service. Generally reputed to be the wild­ est region in America, the Selway Bitter Root primitive area em­ braces Bitter Root, Nez Perce, Clearwater and Lolo National for­ ests. Travelers/can enter the area either by plane, a western pack train or by hobnail boots, plus plenty of good old-fashioned de­termination. R. H. Rutledge, Idaho regional forester, summed up the plans when he said: “We wish to hold and maintain frontier conditions such as our forefathers met with mystery, romance, freedom of use and in­ spirational qualities unimpaired and preserved for future generations.” SPORTSMEN—SCOUTS—A&JJ STORES GOOD G.I.

We not only have the responsibility of the- world, but we have a debt of $2,000 for every man, woman, and child. This means a debt of $8,000 for a family of four. Just to pay the interest on that debt takes more federal in- come than the nation ever raised from taxes in any year before the war. We have, also, the added costs of war pensions and expenditures for veterans, Moreover, we must keep strong armed forces as a hope of not soon being in another war. Again and again we shall be called upon for relief and assistance to foreign coun­ tries. The $400,000,000 for Greece and Turkey is only a beginning. The total demand over the next two years may run as much as $3,000,- 000,000 above all present obliga­ tions. Demand is everywhere, at home and abroad. Essentials to Health. To meet all of these heavy de­ mands we must have a healthy economy. This is not optional. It is a must. President Truman, Mr Bernard Baruch, .and others are calling for some of the essentials to a healthy economy. They have recently stressed longer hours, and higher productivity on the part of VVl on the part of industry; and max­ imum production on Ilie pari oi ag­ riculture, These are good. They are essential, and I endorse all of them. But one equally important item is being overlooked. It is so impor­ tant, that I believe unless correct­ ed properly it will act as a brake on our economy and prevent the very prosperity we all crave. I refer tc taxes on incomes in the high brack­ ets. The contention that we can keep the present high tax rate on big incomes and maintain' a healthy economy is in my opinion falla­ cious. ' Desire to Venture A dynamic economy like ours re­ quires that a lot of men each year must not only dream dreams o achievement, but that they actualb must venture into business in an ef­ fort to satisfy American consumers. This is an obligation upon mer, who have large amounts of capi­ tal. But men in the high brackets now are being taxed up to 85 pel cent of their net income. The take from income is so great as tc threaten their willingness to risk. A man who could keep only 15 pei cent of any additional income would not likely find It advisable to undcrgc the required risk necessary to in crease his income. Politics and Courage Naturally, it is easy to say that those in the high brackets are thr ones most able to pay, that the; are the last ones to deserve an; tax relief. It is also good politic: to appeal to the many, with a de­ termination to keep taxes on those “able to pay.” But it is very bad for the future of the nation. Any policy that keeps competitive capital from going freely into the tools oi production to make goods and pro­ vide jobs is, in the long run, going to reduce the national income, re-, duce the number of good jobs and reduce wages. Sustained nign investment of pri­ vate capital in the tools of produc­ tion is the only possible road to sus­ tained high wages and full employ ment. May we have the couragi and the wisdom to correct this dan­ gerous threat to our future before it is too late, regardless of immedi­ ate political repercussions. May we look to the welfare of the many, and keep America ever the land oi the free. Uncle Sam Says I Someday you’ll be'flipping away the calendar for 1956!

Well, there are lots of stingy folk, And this is true withous a joke; They’re stingy Mdth their com and wheat And with the food they have to eat; They’re stingy when they go to church, As in their pockets they will search For just a penny or a dime To save the world from sin and erime. ' They’ll put their money in the bank And let the cause of God go lank; They’ll buy up houses, stocks and bonds, Or farms and orchards, streams and ponds; Theyll turn their dollars round about, But if you’d ask for one they’d pout; TheytU get and keep just all they can, For that’s their purpose, aim and plan. - If you should preach that they should give To helo their fellowmen to live, They’ll twist and squirm upon their seat' And soon they’ll make a fast re­ treat, And then declare they’d like to hear The Gospel that will please die ear, And not disturb their stingy souls Lest gloom upon their conscience rolls. Such stingy folks will never grace The i home and churcb with smi­ ling face; They’ll never bless their native land, Norwith the noble take their stand; They’ll never leave a life sublime To shine upon the shores of time, Nor rear a monument of fame To long perpetuate their name. When people live for self alone, W ith strong desire to get and own The money and material earth, And then leave nothing of true worth, They’re soon forgotten when they die, And in the'earth their ashes lie; Not even daughter, wife nor son Appreciate what they have done. Boilt First Tobacco Warehouse In a recent issue of die Twin- City Sentinel, Miss Mary C Wiley had an article copied from die Peoples Preps, of Feb. '22, 1872, which reported that T. J.

School authorities b&e and else where report that the teacher situ ation will not be as bad In the com­ ing school term as during the past three years, but it will be bad enough. .Teachcrs1 by the aid of a public opinion aroused by the press and other means, gained a victory when the legislature boosted their salar­ ies by about 30 per. cent when only 20 per cent was recommended by the stste administration in Raleigh. This will mean that a college giaduate who has spent four years time and about $4,000 to prepare to teach can earn ahout $173 per month for nine months of the year in place of the former $130, and that there will be a few more who will teach instead of taking better paving jobs in business and in­ dustry. But money is not everything and the teacher needs to be lifted again to her rightful place in the realm of recognition by the public It. used to be that a teacher was re­ cognized as a person above the av­ erage, intellectually and morally. A teacher was a leader. But along came inflation with starvation salaries, for the teachers. Sfany of the more able ones quit. Parents only recently learned the true situation when their children begun to fail in school and to come home telling about what the teach­ er didn’t xnow. With better teachers expected with higher pay, let us give the teachers more help, encouragement and respect and restore the teacher to her rigbttn! place as a leader whose influence mtfst remain with children thjoughout their lives. Social Security Tax Returns On or before midnigDt Thursday, Tuly 31, 1947, employers who ate subject to insurauce provisions of the Social Security Act, will send to the Government their quarterly payroll tax returns, covering the second quarter of 1947. Mrs. Ruth G. DuSv, Manager if the Winston-Salem Field Office of the Social Security Administration today called attention to the fact that an employer can save himself himself time and trouble, by mak ing certain that the name acconnt number and wage earnings of each worker employer by him during April, May and June, 1940, are shown on his tax report. She said also that most employers in this section are very careful to include the name and Social Security ac count number, as well as the wages of each employee, In their reports, but there are still a few who do realize that the law applies to every business or industrial establish, ment, eveu thongh it has only one employee Social Security tax returns are sent by the employer to the Col­ lector of Internal Revenur. Short­ ly thereadter, the wage reports ace transmitted to the Social Socurity Administration, and there each item of wages is credited to the proper account, Bvery insured worker has an individual wage re­ cord and this record will be used, later, as a mean of determining the amount of benefits that oiaybe payable to him wbetshe i; old or to his dependents in case be should die.

Despite the extraordinary efforts of President Truman and the big union leaders to prevent it, the Taft-Hartlev labor bill becomes law, In the overwhelming votes of both the Senate and the House to over, ride the President’s veto, Mr. Tru­ man suffered the greatest defeat of his experience as Chief Kxecutive and probably rlie greatest of his political career. No President in recent decade*! has gone as far perhaps as Mr. Trn man in efforts to prevent the enact, ment of any law, and it has been rare, if not without arecedent that a vtto was ever before overriden by such majorities as apDroximately four to one in the House and with in seven votes of three to one in the Senate. The President probablv increased instead of decreased the final vote for the bill in the Senate, as we1| as in the House. The harsh and intemperate language he employed in his veto message of nearly 6 000 words might reasonably have been interpreted bv Congress as a grave reflection upon the ability, intelli­ gence and honesty of the approxi. mately four-fifths of the represen­ tatives and two-thirds of the sena­ tors who supported the measure in the first place. His cbaracterizatiou of the bill were too much like a presidential ini'orsement of all that the bi8 un ion leaders had said about it during the last several months. After sending such a message to Congress, he went on the radio, using all the major networks, to appeal for iugpnrt nf the public, and finally made an eleveuth-bour appeal to the Senate shortly before its vote to override. It is 10. be admitted that the mea­ sure is not perfect, even though no Congress in many years has devot. cd so much time and study and la bor to a siuple pieee of legislation. Bnt whatever is wrong with the measure can be conected even as earlv as next year. It is not an amendment to the Constitution. But the iudgment of 73 per cent of the senators and approximately 80 per cent of .he representatives, fresh from tbe-elections of last No­ vember and all facing elections next year, is that the measure is a good law. that it is fair, that it is neces­ sary, that it will prove effective, and t*iat it is not daugerous or too drastic, or inequitable, or discrimi­ natory, or unworkable, as Mr. Truman and the union leaders charged. If a secret poll of the rank and file of the membership of nil enion menrbers conld be taken, it prob ably would be found fiat the ma­ jority of them do not share the a- iarm of the top ranking leaders of organized labor nor the views of Mr. Truman They Are Ripe Blackberries will not get ripe this year until a little iater than usual. Last year they commenced the fourth week in June or sooner. We picked over ripe ones Fouth of July. A late eprlng this year, it is said, will make fresh berry pies come about July 1 Brother Frank Stroud, adjoining connty editor, says be never got eveu one slice last year. He's not like a tenant we heard of. Up Yadkin around Goshen years ago a fellow who didn’t work or pay his debts. In the spring food became scarce. He went as in otbes years to a nearby ueighbor river farmer who had a full crih of corn, for credit. After being refused, and on his wav back home, he said to a squad of hends at work as he passed by that he didn’t care blackberries w.ould soon be ripe anyhow.—Wilkosboro Hustler.

Proper Curing Of Hay Is Important Operation Cutting hay at the right time is one of the most important steos iu bay making, b-it proper curing of tbe hay is tbe almost equally as im­ portant, according to Dr. R. L- Lovvorn, professor of Agronomy at State College Hay should be cuifd to preserve the leaves which contain most of the nutrients, to preserve the na­ tural green color, to avoid damage from rain or dew, and to avoid damage from mold tbe specialist said. Most bays, if cnt in tbe morn­ ing are ready to put in windrows tbe same day. If it is first allow- ed to wilt just as it has fallen, hay will cure more readily and more uniformly than if cured entirely in windrows. It is desirable, however, to gets it into tbe wiudows before it gets too dry or blanched. Dr. Lovvorn said. The leaves are the first part of tbe plant to dry out after cutting. As long as leaves are kept alive, they belp cure tbe stems by draw, ing the moisture out of them. If rain falls on freshly cut hay there will be little damage, pro- vided good curing weather follows. Half-cured or well-cured hay will be disclosed, but will not mold if rain comes before it is raked up. Tbe greatest damage is done to hay In the windrows, or in Wloose1 ir­ regular piles.

Commissioner. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. Soil May Build or Weaken Our Bodies Value of Food Depends On Mineral Fertility "We are what we eat” and “what we eat depends on the soil that pro­ duces it,” declares Dr. William A. Albrecht, University of Missouri. “Human health troubles often come from poor nutrition whiph weakens the body. With its de­ fenses down the body is less able to resist the attacks of bacteria and other forces.” “Foods from some soils provide only fuel for energy, other soils sup­ port crops that carry something ‘extra’—body building materials. Where rainfall is high and where virgin forests once covered the land, plants are barely able to put togeth­ er any more than fuel foods for themselves and animals. Properly managed with lime, fertilizers and legumes, these soils can be built to put into crops these body build­ ing values. “On the more fertile soils of the hard wheat belt, the former buffalo novj w ill vou Beueve THAT IMPROVED PASTURES MAKE A BIS DIFFERENCE? prairies, where the rainfall is less, plants are able to synthesize much mere than just fuel. Because of the mineral fertility left in the soil foods grown here contain body building, bone making values. “Neglecting to put fertility such as barnyard manure, green ma­ nures, lime, and other fertilizers back Into soils to balance crop re­ moval pushes crops on these soils to­ ward ‘fuel only’ crops. These ‘fuel only’ crops mean poorer growth and lower health values. The de­ clining fertility of our soils is a de­ cline in the health of our soils, of our plants and of ourselves.” insoluble Grif Aids Chicken’s Digestion Some insoluble grit, usually gran­ ite or river gravel, wiU be eaten by hens if it is available. It assists the gizzard in grinding grains and ccarse feeds that might cause im­ paction of the digestive tract. Fine ground feed can be digested satis­ factorily without grit being avail­ able. Oyster sheU and limestone rock particles sometimes are used as grit but the digestive juices break these down rapidly and thus make an excess of calcium available. Grit commonly is kept before hens at all times, although some producers pre­ fer to feed it at intervals of 10 daya to two weeks. Rid Worms in Sheep With Phenofhiazine To control stomach and other roundworms of sheep, treat each'an­ imal individually with phenothiazine just ahead of the pasture season and keep phenothiazine-salt mixture in a covered trough before sheep on pasture.

Policy Hinted Nation May Be Embarking On Major ‘Peacefare’ Effort By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator, WASHINGTON.—It was a sizzling day in the capital. The town moved slowly like a lazy setter, stretching and hunting the shade. Even the trees were half asleep. The air pushed hard against your brow and cheeks. The asphalt yielded to one’s foot­ falls like brown grasses in a trodden field. But we had to attend the regular press and radio conference of the sec­ retary of state. Nature languished, but we knew the dispatch room was spluttering and sparking in sharp shudders with the news of an anguished world. America we sensed (but didn’t understand quite how) was em­barking on a colossal undertaking. We walked down the air-cooled Baukhage corridors of this new state depart­ ment building which in wartime housed the brass hats of the high command. For those working for peace, it is a little depressing to pass those stark murals depicting war at its worst—or best, which is probably the same thing.We were still interested in the im­ plications of the statements on for­ eign policy. Each statement pulled a little wider the curtain on the theater which was neither a theater of war nor a theater of peace. Again and again the ques­ tions came in like darts. Ef­ forts to pierce what we all felt was a screen concealing vistas much wider than the formal state­ ments had yet revealed.. Was there a greater plan lying behind this program for aid to stricken countries — the program outlined by Secretary Marshall at Harvard? The question was asked although we knew that even if the secretary had a vision wider than ours, he could not reveal it—yet. His answer, frank enough under the circumstances and not unexpect­ ed, was that if there was some fur­ ther plan behind the one already revealed piecemeal, he was not go­ ing to talk about it. He did reveal that Russia was not outside the pale of Amer­ ica’s rehabilitation efforts — in theory at least. This was sur­ prising to some who had stud­ ied President Truman’s, Mar­ shall’s and Ben Cohen's most recent statements, and yet not so surprising as we recalled the nature of other talks, not pub­ lic, which had hinted at larger things. Is this a real effort to achieve a fair understanding with Russia? (Rapproachement is the diplomatic word.) Words. I am wondering whether those un­ spoken words of the secretary of state could possibly describe the im­ mensity of America’s task, the task which is envisioned in the plans which Secretary Marshal] “would not talk about.” I say this because I have learned a new word which, it seems to me, might bear within it a vital, a hopeful concept. Like Hauptmann, in “The Sunken Bell” when he said: Tear! All the gladness, all the sorrow of the world sparkles within it.” Think of the dynamic quality of other words: Fame—Riches—Fair Play—Charity—Honor! ★ ★ This new word of mine (which Marshall might have used, had he known it) is “peacefare.” It was used in a paragraph of a “letter to the editor” in the New York Times. The writer was A. M. Meerloo, wartime chief of the psy­ chological branch of the Dutch war ministry and a member of the inter- Allied psychological study group in England. This is the paragraph: “In those (wartime) days, when the success or failure of the war was at stake, psychologists and spe­ cialists in allied fields mobilized ev­ ery weapon at their command to wage psychological warfare. Why cannot we now, when the peace is at stake, mobilize as carefully for psychological peacefare?” AU right, there you have it— “peacefare.” Not simply "psycho­ logical” peacefare now, but econom­ ic and political and moral peace­ fare. That is what I am hoping and praying the unspoken plan of Secre­ tary Hull will embody. A hard, long, expensive campaign. But one launched not against any­ body but for everybody; a campaign to stop war to save humanity. I say “everybody” because Mar- shaU pointed out that he envisioned Russia as a part of this plan for the economic rehabilitation of Eu­ rope. Without this economic re­ habilitation, there can be no re­ habilitation of the body politic or the body (and soul) moral. It must be a campaign to ban­ ish fear—fear of tbe atomic bomb which we possess for the moment; fear of the far more terrible weapons of destruction that any madman might put to use. It is a campaign to banish the hate bred by fear. A campaign to nourish the body so that bodily things may be forgotten and man may pursue his spiritual destiny to­ ward freedom, toward decency, to­ ward a world where the major ef­ fort is dedication to the common good. Nothing like this has ever been attempted before. Nations have loaned money for the purpose of earning a neat dividend or to wring some political advantage from an impecunious princeling or bankrupt government. Many fair promises and high sounding ideals have been written into covenants signed only to be broken when opportunism dic­ tated a reverse English. But here is something new and different. Something rather bright and idealistic has been added, what we hope is an honest effort to wage peacefare, to outroot the malice of the few, in the. spirit of charity to- ward all. It may be all eyewash, I know. I’ve seen a lot of castles fall. But my feeling is that if we get out of the scoffer’s seat for a moment, if we drop the cynic pose and put peacefare into the national vocabu­ lary', we may make it work. ★ ★ “■iCathCA straa chick brooder to keep chicks from straying away and getting chilled.

Erosion Danger Present In Nearly Every Month The erosion hazard not only is with us always, but also it comes at any season, almost every month of the year. It is so serious that soil losses of 10 tons or more to the acre in a single month are not at all uncommon. Highest soil loss ex­ perienced for a single month in Mis­ sissippi was 62,376 pounds per acre. The loss must be combatted by ter­ racing, ground cover and conser­ vation. Building Plans Spur inquiries I don’t know how interested you readers have been in my reports of what American ingenuity in differ­ ent communities Ims done to make brick (and other building material for- veterans’ homes) without the straw (of readily available materi­ als and labor) which we seem to lack in this otherwise rich and pros­ perous land of ours. But I can tell you that a lot of people who thought they could go and do likewise were heard from. Yakima, Wash., whose achieve­ ment was the first described in this column, has had requests for infor­ mation from 41 cities and 18 states. Nearby communities have sent peo­ ple to Yakima to get first-hand in­ formation in person. Delegations have come to Yakima from Spo­ kane, Seattle, WaIla Walla, Ephrata, Pasco, Prosser, Ellensburg and Bremerton in Washington, and from Portland and Pendleton in Oregon. The Salem plan, under which the city is subsidizing the conversion of extra space into new apartments, has drawn comment from a num­ ber of other Massachusetts towns. Gloucester already has copied part of the plan, and inquiries have come in from five other cities in the Bay state, and from state offices of Am- vets, VFW and American Legion. The veterans’ co-operative which has been so successful in building moderate cost housing in Albuquerque, N. M., has been busy answering questions, too. Requests have come from Hous­ ton and Amarillo, Tex., from Syracuse, N. Y.; Chitopee, Mass.; Las Cruces, N. M.; Great Falls, Mont.; Erie, Fa.; Berkeley, Calif.; Oklahoma City, •etreit and elsewhere. I R DESIGNED FOR THE LIVING . . . First up the ramp to the new model paraplegic house, built as a special housing unit at Halloran hospital on Staten island, N. Y., is Louis Novelli of Machnaqua, Pa.

NEWS REVIEW New Farm Plan Studied; Fruit Crop Favorable FARM CONTROLS: Opposition Grows American Farm Bureau federa­ tion, powerful farm group which sponsored most of the agricultural legislation now in force, is consid­ ering recommendations for total abandonment of all farm price and crop controls by the government. Edward A. O’Neal, president of the federation, said the board is not satisfied with the old AAA, e s t a b - lished during Pres­ ident Roosevelt’s first term. He re­ vealed that a bet­ ter a g r i cultural program than the one th e farmers now have is being sought. The AAA authorizes pay­ ments to farmers for reducing acre­ ages in the basic crops of wheat, corn, cotton, rice, tobacco and pea­ nuts. Fafmers from the North and Northwest have consistently op­ posed federal subsidies, and senti­ ment was reported to be growing among the producers for letting farm products seek their own price level as a permanent policy. In the South, however, cotton and tobacco growers are known to be satisfied with the situation as it stands, favoring tight controls if prices start to slip. One of the federation’s econo­ mists predicted at least a 10-year period of good prices for farmers at levels slightly below those prevail­ ing now. O’Neal The success of Rochester, N. Y., in providing living space has brought in an impressive list of queries from other communities which haven’t yet solved their hous­ ing problems. Chambers of com­ merce in Bristol, Tenn., and Far­ rell, Pa., and in half a dozen New i York and Massachusetts towns have inquired. Twenty-nine banks in 14 I states and one in Canada have writ­ ten in for details. Housing com­ mittees in Ann Arbor, Mich., and San Antonio, Tex., have asked for the story, as have a dozen other committees in cities nearer to Rochester. ' The stories I printed were only a few of the many communities which had the will that finds the way. I wish I could print them all. FARM ROYALTY . . .

FRUITED PLAINS: A p p le O u tlo o k R o sy Despite a late spring and some frost damage in eastern fruit areas, prospects continue generally favor­ able for this year’s crop of apples and other deciduous fruits, a de­ partment of agriculture report has disclosed. The 1947 strawberry crop is esti­ mated to be nearly a fourth larger than the 1946 crop, but still a tenth below average. However, the peach crop in 10 early southern states is expected to set a new record of more than 25 million bushels this year, the third successive large crop from those states. In California, the sweet cherry crop of 29,000 tons is 15 per cent smaller than last year, but still 16 per cent larger than the 1938-44 av­ erage. California’s 92,000-ton plum crop is slightly below 1946. TR A IN IN G : Hearings Begin Although congress is scheduled to adjourn July 28, the- senate armed services committee has voted to proceed with hearings on universal military training. But in a formal statement the committee added that if a report cannot be made ready by July 28, it will attempt to have a report pre­ pared for congress when it con­ venes again. Decision of the senate group was reached as the Very Rev. Edmund A. Walsh, a member of President Truman’s universal military train­ ing commission, told a house com­ mittee that “the politburo in Mos­ cow is not going to adjourn for the summer as its forces creep across Europe.” Father Walsh said that America is definitely on the Soviet agenda of conquest, and Russia will be ready to start her “shooting war” as soon as her atom bombs ate in produc­ tion. TAX PLANS: To Think Over Congress has been presented with four tax-revision plans to think over until it gets ready to have another go at the income tax problem. The treasury department has giv­ en the house ways and means com­ mittee studies of four plans to equal­ ize federal income taxes on married couples in all 48 states. One of the proposals would save 4,900,000 couples three-quarters of a billion dollars annually by giving those living in 38 states the same “income splitting” rights now en­ joyed by couples living in 10 states which have community property laws. Secretary of the Treasury John Snyder has indicated that the ad­ ministration considers the proposed plans to be among the “right kind” of changes in-the tax setup. . WIDESPREAD INCREASES Relief Cases Double 1945 Low WASHINGTON.—As evidence that public assistance problems are be­ coming critical throughout the na­ tion, American Public Welfare as­ sociation reveals that general relief caseloads have reached a level more than 50 per cent above the low point of 1945. Current unemployment is cen­ tered among unskilled workers who have been displaced by skilled vet­ erans, according to the report. Marked increases in unemployed rolls have been reported from 22 major labor centers. Minnesota’s family relief case­ load increased 35 per cent in 1946, “a sharp incline which current signs indicate is typical of many states,” the association said. Several state legislatures have granted bigger state relief funds to meet the rising need. Pennsylvania boosted assistance for 1947-1948 to $30,600,000, an increase of $10,000,000 from the 1945 appropriation. Month­ ly relief costs in the state for May were $1,260,000 compared to a total of $520,000 in June, 1945, and the monthly caseload increased more than 60 per cent. Highest current increase in cities is reported in Washington, where general assistance rolls increased 60 per cent between March, 1946, and March, 1947, the report declared. Unemployment benefits in New York City have increased ninefold, from 23,212 in August, 1945, to about 203,000 at the present time, it was asserted. ,Total general relief caseload for the nation in February was 344,000 compared with 258,000 a year ear­ lier. In a year general relief costs increased 97 per cent in Delaware, 90.8 per cent in’Wyoming, 75.8 per cent in Ohio, .67 per cent in Cali­ fornia and 55 per cent in Indiana, the report disclosed.

I was to have met him here two hours ago. I wonder if you have seen him?” The floorwalker did his best to look obliging. “Possibly I have, madam,” he replied. “Is there any distinguish­ ing characteristic about him by which I could identity him?” After a moment’s thought, a frightened expression came over the woman’s face. “He’s,” she replied hesitantly, “I imagine he’s purple by now.” CLASSIFIED D E P A R TM ENT BUILDING MATERIALS CONCRETE BLOCK MACHINES 200 to 240 blocks hour, others hand or power 45 to JOO hour, brick machines, batch mixers any size, motors and gas engines.

Be certain to try out the foods before the company date comes along so you will be thor­ oughly familiar with the prepara­ tion, and then everything will run smoothly. If you don’t want to plan the menu completely, then select just the main dish and fill in the salad and vegetable with whatever is in season. Tuna a la King in Potato Nests. (Serves 6) 2 cups milk .'!!Tv 4 tablespoons flour 4 tablespoons butter Yi teaspoon salt T 1-16 teaspoon pepper Vi teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 2 cups canned tuna fish ’■ 3 tablespoons chopped pimiento Yi cup tiny mushroom caps Scald milk in double boiler.

Add pimiento and mushrooms. Potato Nests: Peel 4 medium­ sized potatoes. Cut into tiny strips lengthwise. Heat In a small amount of fat but do not brown. Remove from fat, sprinkle with salt and ar­ range in nests inside large muffin tins. Press potatoes firmly against sides of pan and bottom. Bake in a hot (450-degree) oven for 15 minutes.

Mighty Mount McKinley rears its snow-covered head high into the clouds, reaching an altitude of 20,300 feet above sea level. The peak is the major attraction of Mount McKinley National park, one of the two parks located outside the continental limits. STUIY 1» COHTBASTS Lnsh Tropics, Frozen Arctic Embrnced in Oversens Pnrks W N V Features. Two of the great national parks, which belong to the people of the United States, lie in our territories overseas — Hawaii National park on the islands of Hawaii and Maui in the Hawai­ ian archipelago and Mount McKinley National park in Alaska. These two parks present a study in contrasts. Hawaii, within the tropics, basks in perpetual spring. Its forests with lush ferns 40 feet high are gay with birds of brilliant plumage. Mc­ Kinley, on the other hand, enjoys a brief summer season of warmth, and during most of the’h year sleeps in Arctic silence. Here National Parks Ninth In a Series in winter some of the birds and small animals even don white habits to travel like spectres over the snowy landscape. Hawaii National park was estab­ lished by act of congress on August I, 1916, and w a s placed under . ad- m inist ration of National Park service which also was created in the same month. Main features in the park are two spectacular vol­ canoes, frequently active, Kilauea and Mauna Loa on the island of Hawaii, and one of the world’s larg­ est dormant volcanoes, Haleakala on the island of Maui. The total area within the two sections of the park is about 275 square miles. Kilauea, probably older than its neighbor, towering Mauna Loa, cre­ ates the impression of being a crater in the side of the higher mountain, although it is itself a mountain with an altitude of 4,090 feet. This illusion is the result of a broad depression at its top and of its gentle slopes, caused by lava flows from many lateral vents. Within the depression is a vast pit, Halemaumau or “House of Fire,” which often contains a boiling, bub­ bling mass of molten lava whose surface fluctuates from bottom to rim. Until 1924 molten lava was usually visible at any time in Halemaumau, but activity since then has been spasmodic. Its risings are accompanied by brilliant Iountains and inflows of liquid lava, and its lowerings by tremendous avalanches which send up enormous dust clouds. To the west of Kilauea rises the vast dome of Mauna Loa whose summit crater, Mokuaweoweo, is included in the national park. In­ cluded also is a broad connecting belt between the two volcanoes. Mauna Loa thrusts it great bulk 13,680 feet above the surrounding Pacific. By eruptions in its summit crater and by flank outbreaks it is constantly adding to its mass. In action Mauna Loa is even more spectacular than Kilauea, and steam vents continually send feath­ ery clouds into the air. Extending northeast and southwest from the summit are volcanic rifts with many deep rents formed by earth­ quake and eruption as well as many brilliantly colored spatter cones, some 200 feet in height. Twice since 1880 the City of Hilo at the base of the volcano has been threatened by great rivers of lava which have flowed down the sides of the moun­ tain.• * * HALEAKALA SECTION of Ha­ waii National park is on the island of Maui. This volcano derives its name, which means “House of the Sun,” from a legend about the Poly­ nesian demigod Maui, who climbed to the top of Haleakala, ensnared the rays of the sun, and forced it to travel more slowly in its course so that his mother might have suffi­ cient time to complete her day’s work. Haleakala, now rising more than 10,000 feet above sea level, was once a much higher mountain. A collapse of the dome, many years ago, formed a great crater 7Yi miles long and 3 miles wide, with walls over 1,000 feet high. Within these gorgeously col­ ored walls lies a superb vol­ canic spectacle. Covering the floor are giant red, black and orange cinder cones which, al­ though hundreds of feet high, are dwarfed by the immensity of their surroundings. The crater has a circumference of 21 miles and an area of 19 square miles. Both sections of the park are reached from Honolulu by island boat or airplane. From Hilo, port of Hawaii island, one may rent an au­ tomobile for the trip to Kilauea or take the regular bus. * • * MOUNT McKINLEY National park, situated in south-central Alas­ ka, was created by act of congress in 1917. It contains an area of a little more than 3,000 square miles. Principal scenic feature of the park is mighty Mount McKinley, highest, peak on the North American con­ tinent. This majestic mountain rears its snow-covered head high into the clouds, reaching an altitude of 20,300 feet above sea level, and rises 17,000 above the timber line. On its north and west sides McKin­ ley springs abruptly from a plateau only 2,500 to 3,000 feet high. For two-thirds of the way down from its summit Mount McKinley is enveloped in snow throughout the year. Denali, “home of the sun,” was the name given to this impressive moun­ tain by the early Indians. Near Mount McKinley are Moimt Foraker, with an elevation of 17,000 feet;' Mount Hunter, 14,960 feet, and Mount Russell, 11,500 feet. Great glaciers fed by the high snow fields of this mountain range flow many miles both to the north and to the south. During the park season, which ex­ tends from June 10 to September 10, with more than 18 hours of daylight each day, there is a wealth of flow­ ering plants. The park is also the home of many interesting animals and birds. Prospective visitors to Mount McKinley National park probably will make the trip to Alaska by steamer from Seattle. To use the war constructed Alaska highway through Canada requires a special permit from the Canadian govern­ ment, and permits are not yet granted to motor tourists. Business men, settlers and bus passengers may apply for permits to L. E. Drummond, Traffic Control Divi­ sion, Alaska Highway, Edmonton, Alberta. VAST PIT . . . Halemaumau or “House of Fire” is a vast pit in the crater of Kilauea volcano, Hawaii National park. Vandals Cause Damage in Paries WASHINGTON.—Carelessness on the part of visitors annually causes untold damage in the national parks, according to Newton B. Drury, director of Nations) Park service. Careless damage by1 visitors, he adds, has been noted in such widely different places as the Statue of Liberty national monument and Yellowstone National park. Vandalism at the Statiie of Lib­ erty is discouraged by a new coat of washable paint which will not ab­ sorb lipstick and a wire enclosure around the stairway designed to prevent writing on the statue. "Unfortunately,” Dnuy contin­ ues, “similar' protection cannot be given the delicate hot spring and geyser formations in Yellowstone. Debris thrown into the pools in some cases actually causes explo­ sions that have destroyed pools.” Change Your Weight For Beauty's Sake Eat and Be Slim' said you can’t have your ’ ' cake and eat it, too?

L ■ f- BY Sjtfsjsiftf IfiitU-I •; • JiU M cFarlane, whose father, Rich­ ard, disappeared in World W ar I, falls In love with Lieut. Spang Gordon. He tells her that her brother, RIc, is see­ ing a divorcee and she is upset to find the woman in question, Sandra Calvert, is an older, hardened woman. Spang says good-bye and later, while riding with Dave Patterson, a famUy friend, she Is thrown from her horse and taken to the hospital. That night Richard returns home. He teUs her mother, Julia, that he assumed a new name, that of Captain Mackey, and is sta­ tioned at the sam e camp as Ric. JuUa is heartstick that be never acknowledged his ChUdren and is determined to keep them from knowing the truth. CHAPTER XI “What do you want me to say, Jill? I’ve told you that there's noth­ ing wrong between Dave and me. I’m sorry if I look worried, but I’m trying to run a farm under pretty serious difficulties, I have a son gone off to war, and I’m not as young as you are.” Jill sighed, “You’re certainly a devilishly stubborn female, Dooley McFarlane.” Then she raised her head suddenly, and her eyes wid­ ened and blackened with panic. “Dooley, is it Ric? Has something happened?” “What could happen? I haven’t even had a letter from Ric. What made you say that, Jill?” she asked, her voice sharpening a little. “Well, knowing Ric’s capacity for getting himself into jams and your capacity for suffering about them, it was a logical question, wasn’t it?” “Logical enough. But why the panicky attack? Do you know something about Ric that I don’t know?” “No.” Jill kept her eyes on the ceiling. “I told you—I only saw him for a few minutes. He had some kind of duty.” She could not add the blonde Mrs. Calvert to Dooley’s mental burden now. When Ric was shipped out from Ridley Field that would all end, anyway. “Dooley, if you sent Spang a registered letter telling him about me, it would be forwarded, wouldn’t it?” “I don’t know much about army routine, Jill. You’ll hear from him, won’t you, when he has a definite address?” “I don’t know. He might be where he couldn’t write, maybe for weeks —might be for months. Dooley—he kissed me good - by!” Tears squeezed between Jill’s guarded eyelids. “That makes you one of the great company of women who wait, then. And your job is to wait patiently, and not worry Spang with a broken arm that will be healed before he hears about it.” “The trouble is, I don’t know what I’m waiting for.” "You aren’t engaged to your lieu­ tenant, then?” “No—he just kissed me and said to keep that till he came back. And, Dooley—sometimes they don’t come back! Father didn’t come backf” She did not see the quick, drained spasm that changed her mother’s face into a hollow mask of torment. “That’s part of it, Jill. That’s what I wanted to spare you, if I could.” "It wasn’t your fault that I fell, head over heels. I did it with my eyes open. And I’m willing to pay. I won’t welsh, no matter what life hands me. I’m a McFarlane, like you, But—not to have anything! You tad memones-you had Ric and me. I have nothing!” J o h n I . D en o u n ces H is S o n Memories! Julia caught herself before she laughed aloud. Memo­ ries that burned and shamed. “I had my children,” she con­ trolled her voice, “but there were times before your grandfather came and got us when I didn’t know what you were going to eat. I was younger than you, I had always been taken care of, I hadn’t even any common sense. There are compensations, Jill. Personally, I think your Spang an extraordinarily wise and decent young man. He was 'taking care of you. Not many men have the strength and foresight to do that when they fall In love.” “But—I don’t even know that he did fall In love, Dooley! If you think he’s being noble, I’ll try to think that, too. But listen, we needn’t have two lorn women in one house. You go ahead and mar­ ry Dave.” Julia started a little. Then she said, “Dave hasn’t asked me. It would be more maidenly to wait until he did, don’t you think? I’m going now, darling. Your grand­ father and I are still trying to run a farm.” She had to tell Dave. That thought was heavy on her mind and heart as she drove the station-wagon through the town. Dave did not know, as yet, that Richard McFar­ lane had come back. Sharing the weight of this new problem with him would be a relief, though not kind to Dave. She could not talk to Richard’s father. The old man had withdrawn into a sav­ age mood of gloom, and her at­ tempts to draw him out of it had only irritated him; she could not hurt him any more.There was a personal humilia­ tion for John I. McFarlane in the situation, a sense of responsibility that showed in his haunted eyes and uncertain gestures. He had flared at her once, trying to ease his own torment, she knew. “If you had let me go ahead as I wanted to, you’d be in a decent position now,” he had snapped. “You’d have the advantage.” “But Richard isn’t dead,” Julia reminded him. “Richard is still Richard, he’s still your son, he’s still my husband, even if for years he has been living a lie.” “I have no son!” he cried, his throat working. “I never had a son! I spawned a creature—some­ thing with no honor, no manhood. I owe the world an apology for that mischance. But I will not dignify Richard McFarlane by owning him as my son. He has thrown away his name, he threw away his wife and children, he can throw his fa­ ther away, too!” He had marched out with his back stiff, and Julia had resisted the im- “Dave, Richard is alive.” pulse to follow and comfort him. This was something they must each bear alone. She with her harried anxieties and mortification, and this proud, stricken old man with his bitter memories. She would talk to Dave now, she decided. He was sitting in his little cuddy in the bank, when she went in, the niche where he met farmers and handled crop loans and mort­ gages. He looked up at her with a twinkling smile and sprang quick­ ly to his feet, to pull out a chair for her. “Sit down, Dooley. How’s Jill?” “She’s quite unhappy, but that will pass. The arm is healing nice­ ly. Are you busy, Dave? Will you be free soon?” "I'm free now if you need me. Something wrong, Dooley?” “I want to talk to you. Could we go out and sit in my car?” Dave reached for his hat, "Comealong1llIie said, Julia started the station-wagon wU Dave IaJ iU tin IesiJo her. “It’s too hot to sit still. I’ll find a shady place. Or I’ll keep driv­ ing.” “Find a shady place. Don’t wear out your tires.” Dave asked no questions. He did not hurry her. That hurt, too, his sensitive understanding of her mood. Dave Is Told About Richard “Dave, Richard is alive.” There was a sharp silence, so in­ tense that Julia’s skin began to prickle. Then Dave said, hoarse­ ly, “How do you know?” “I’ve seen him.” She kept her eyes straight ahead. “He came to the house Sunday night.” ‘‘He’s in the army,” Julia went on. “He’s a captain in the air corps. He’s at the same field where Ric is.”' “So—all this time—” “All this time,” she repeated flat­ ly, “he had stayed away because he didn’t want to come back!” “The hound!” Dave snapped. “And I suppose now—when you’re on your feet, when things would be easy for him—he has changed his mind?” “He said,” Julia gave a hard lit­ tle laugh, “that he realized sudden­ ly that he missed me!” “Very suddenly—after twenty-five years! Did he have any excuse— any explanation?” “He didn’t offer any excuse. It seems he got bored with the war and wandered off to Paris. In the confusion after the armistice he got hold of some other man’s papers. i So he changed his name,” “Dave drew a relieved breath. “Well, 'that lets you out, Dooley. He can’t expect to be taken back, after this.” “I don’t think he expects it. He didn't talk about it. He was very casual. You know Richard, that im­ pervious, arrogant way he had? He hasn’t changed.” “He came expecting you to swoon with delight at seeing him, no doubt, and when you weren’t over­ come he kept a remote and slightly condescending attitude. Yes, I know.” “I don’t know what he expected. He came in as coolly as though he’d only been gone a week. He asked about the children. I was so thank­ ful neither of them was there. Jolm I. was in a rage. He wouldn’t even shake hands with Richard. I’m so sorry for John I. I ache all over.” “Chin up, Dooley. This puts an end to all the uncertainty—at least all the unease that has been mak­ ing you unhappy so long.” “I wish I could see the end,” she said. “But it’s perfectly clear,” he ar­ gued. Then sharply, “You don’t mean that you want him back— now?” She shook her head. “He shamed me, Dave. I know that I was young and silly. I suppose I bored him after the first excitement of being in love with me cooled into common­ place responsibility, into the dreary chore of having to clothe and feed me, having the babies coming—all that.” “Dooley, you’re not going to blame yourself for this man’s worthlessness, his utter lack of de­cency or honor!” “I have to blame myself, Dave. Another woman might have made a man of Richard, might have made him want to be a man, at least.” “Richard McFarlane had every chance. He threw his chances away. He deserves no sympathy. I won’t let you harrow yourself like this.” She gave a little choking sigh. “I suppose I should try to act like an outraged wife. Perhaps I can when I’ve got over being stunned.” “The next move,” Dave said in a calm, business-like tone, “is for you to get a divorce.” She shivered a little. “That’s just it, Dave. I can’t do it.” “What do you mean, you can’t? If twenty-five years of callous deser­ tion isn’t legal grounds for divorce, I don’t know what would be.” “Of course I have grounds,” she agreed, “but Richard isn’t Richard now. He’s Captain Roger Mackey of the air corps. Think what it would mean! A nation-wide sen­ sation. A military investigation. A cheap story to spread in black head­ lines in the cheap press. Humilia­ tion for me and for Richard’s old father. And for Ric and Jill—Dave, I don’t even dare to think of what it would do to Ric and Jill!” “They aren’t children, Dooley. They’re adults and strong enough to bear the truth.” A Struggle of Torn Emotions "Even if they are strong—and Ric isn’t strong, Dave. I’m his mother, but I’m not foolishly blind. I know that Ric has a weak strain in him. But even agreeing that they are mature enough to face a ghastly sit­ uation like this, think of the cruelty of it. I’d be destroying the one fine thing I’ve been able to give them. I gave them a hero for a father-a dead hero-and I can't snatch that father away ahd show «m B i! do incalculable harm. To Ric espe­ cially. Can’t you see what it would do to Ric, when he’s so tin- balanced anyway by the unbalanced recklessness now in the world? Can’t you see that it would ruin him? He’s proud. He’d despise me, undoubtedly. I can’t do it, Dave.” “Why should your son despise you? You aren’t talking sense.” “Because his father despised me —enough to abandon me. I’d be a pathetic figure in my children’s eyes, I’d be pitied by people who have respected me. I can’t do it. I can’t.” Dave leaned forward, his face gray and grave and weary, “AU right, Dooley. If that’s the way you feel, there’s nothing I can say." “But—how else can I feel?” Julia heard a voice that broke and cried, and was a little startled to dis­ cover that it was her own. “I’m trapped. There’s no way out for me. You can see that, surely?” “I don’t know whether I see it or not, Dooley. I see you, bent on sac­ rificing yourself stiU further to this dream you’ve harbored all these years. TeU me one thing. Are you still in love with Richard McFar­ lane?” She set her face, StiUed its quiv­ ering. “No, I’m not in love with him any more. I think that died, long ago. I know now that it died. Not even a spark came alive when I saw him. I had only had one feeling—an out­ raged and terribly hurt indignation. He made me cheap in my own eyes, Dave, and that can be a hor­ rible feeling. I was something that had been thrown away.” (TO BE CONTINUED) SCHOOL Moral Integrity in Our Everyday Lives LESSON TEXT FOB JULY 6—Job 1:1; 27:1-5; 31:19-28.

ED tTO RrS NO TE: Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council oi Religious Edu­cation; used by permission. By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D. Of The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. lV/f ODERN problems may well be solved by the principles found in Old Testament Scripture. Man is essentially the same as he always has been; sin and temptation to evil have only changed their outer trim­ mings. Above all, the Word of God is eternal in its validity and effec­ tiveness. We learn from him and his ex­ periences that it is possible so to live by the grace of God, that he can be pleased with our lives. That is an encouraging fact. Job was just a man, but he was a man who was I. Upright and Good (1:1). COME liberal critics of the Bible have tried to prove that Job was not a real man, but other Scrip­ ture makes it clear that the words “there was a man” (v.l) states a fact. (See Ezek. 14:14 and 20; James 5:11) He was a man with a large fam­ ily, with great flocks and herds, and so a man of business, and the hus­ band and father in a growing and active household. But in it all he was upright, and a good, God­ fearing man. Many make excuses for their failure to serve the Lord. They say that their business duties and relationships make it just about impossible. Others say that fam­ ily situations and responsibilities keep them from service and wor­ ship of the Lord. The experience of Job explodes all such excuses and squarely faces us with the fact that it is possible to live for God in the midst of the very circumstances of modern life. II. Tried and True (27:1-5). A FTER Job had lost his property, his children and even his health, three of his friends came to comfort him. But they only added to his sorrow by accusing him of being sinful, and suffering only what he deserved. Job in these verses is replying to them. We note that in his ignorance of God’s purposes, he accused God of being cruel to him (27:2; 30:21). This matter was later to be straight­ ened out with the Lord. ; But even now when he did not understand God’s dealings, and stood there sick and destitute, he maintained his integrity. He would not turn from the Lord, nor would he be led off into wickedness. It is possible for a man to be . beaten and bruised and bewil­ dered, and still true to the Lord. Let’s never forget that! HI. Hind and Fair (31:19-23). J OB had been a rich man, but had not let his own prosperity dim his eye so that he could not see the need of his poor neighbor. He was not among those who, because they tie fuss about He taw people round about. There Is something very fine and worthy of our imitation here. It is so easy to take what we have as a special favor from the Lord, to be retained and used by us, when we ought to recognize it as a matter of stewardship for the Lord. A vital part of real moral integ­ rity is the right use of posses­ sions. Many a man or woman who has passed all the other tests with flying colors comes to grief at this point. IV. Spiritual and Faithful (31: 24-28). 'T'HERE were plenty of tempta- tions in Job’s day, as there are now, to depart from the worship of the true God to other modes of devotion. The worship of the sun was com­ mon, and Jeremiah 44:17 shows that it continued for generations. In fact, what shall we say of the world- wide devotion to astrology in our day. Then there was the temptation to worship gold. How up-to-date that is, for do we not have millions who worship “the almighty dollar,” yes, even if they do not have it. To all such temptations Job said a resolute “No.” He would not even permit his innermost heart to be enticed secretly (v. 27). He stood true for the God he loved and served. Who will question that one of our greatest needs in the world’* today is for men and women whd, by the grace and blessing of God, will live good and upright lives, true to the Lord, and sacrificial, In real loving-kindness to men.

The shade can be varied by using more or less tar. 8 1 7 4 £.14-44 Crisp and Cool 'T'HIS crisply tailored shirtwaisfc- er is sure to play a star role in all your summer activities.

TBE DAVlE RECORD. MOCKSV1LLE N. C.. JULY 9 .947 LOOKING AHEAD « GEORGE S. BENSON Miit--MtMlt Start). Jriansat A Present Threat ; America today needs thinkers if ;any nation ever did. We not only •have the responsibility of the world, but we have a debt of $2,000 for every man, woman, and child. This means a debt of $8,000 for a family of four. Just to pay the interest ion that debt takes more federal in­ come than the nation ever raised from taxes in any year before the war. We have, also, the added costs of war pensions and expenditures for veterans. Moreover, we must keep strong armed forces as a hope of not soon being in another war. Again and again we shall be called upon for relief and assistance to foreign coun­ tries. The $400,000,000 for Greece and Turkey is only a beginning. The total demand over the next two years may run as much as $3,000,- 000,000 above all present obliga­ tions. Demand is everywhere, at home and abroad. Essentials to Health. To meet all of these heavy de­ mands we must have a healthy economy. This is not optional. It is a must. President Truman, Mr Bernard Baruch, and others are calling for some of the essentials to a healthy economy. They have recently stressed longer hours, and higher productivity on the part of labor; lower profits and lower prices on the part of industry; and max­ imum production on the part of ag­ riculture. These are good. They are essential, and I endorse all of them. But one equally important item is being overlooked. It is so impor­ tant, that I believe unless correct­ ed properly it will act as a brake on our economy and prevent the very prosperity we all crave. I refer to taxes on incomes in the high brack­ ets. The contention that we can keep the present high tax rate on big incomes and maintain a healthy economy is in my opinion falla­ cious. Desire to Venture A dynamic economy like ours re­ quires that a lot of men each year must not only dream dreams o! achievement, but that they actually must venture into business in an ef­ fort to satisfy American consumers. This is an obligation upon men who have large amounts of capi­ tal. But men in the high brackets now are being taxed up to 85 per cent of their net income. The take from income is so great as to threaten their willingness to risk. A man who could keep only 15 per cent of any additional income would not likely find it advisable to undergo the required risk necessary to in­ crease his income. Politics and Couragb Naturally, it is easy to say that those in the high brackets are the ones most able to pay, that they are the last ones to deserve any tax relief. It is also good politics to appeal to the many, with a de­ termination to keep taxes on those "able to pay.” But it is very bad for the future of the nation. Any policy that keeps competitive capital from going freely into the tools of production to make goods and pro­ vide jobs is, in the long run, going to reduce the national income, re­ duce the number of good jobs and reduce wages. Sustained high investment of pri­ vate capital in the tools of produc­ tion is the only possible road to sus­ tained high wages and full employ- I ment. May we have the courage and the wisdom to correct this dan­ gerous threat to our future before it is too late, regardless of immedi­ ate political repercussions. May we look to the welfare of the many, and keep America ever the land of' the free. WHERE THOUSANDS DIE! 91 killed—3,150 injured! If that were the report of an explosion, wreck or other disaster, it would be front page news. People would be hor­ rified !.But worse—it’s just one d a y’s automobile casualty list in the United States. It happens every day, week in, w eek out. Four deaths, 131 injured—every hour.

Speed—reckless, wanton speed—drunken driving—defiance of safety rules-and regulations—and careless, jaywalking pedestrians, top the list of causes for this grim toll. What can you do about it? Will the speeding wheels of your car add one death to this mass murder of the highways? Not if you, the driver^-and you, the pedestrian—take your individual responsibili­ ties seriously.

It should be the sincere desire of all mankind to do good This is God’s will for us, and when we do His will He always blesses us in a wonderful way Oitrblessed Lord, when He was on earth in bodily form, “ went about doing good,’’ thus leaving an example that we shonld follow No one ever regrets doing all the good he can as he journeys through life, but we believe every one, sooner or later, regrets doing harm. It is quite natural that men come to the place In life where they re. gret living in «in and wickedness, destroying good in their own lives, and likewise destroying good in the lives of others. O the remorse that men suffer for doing barm! Thev can look back across the years years of their lives and see where they have wasted their time and talent, and perhaps destroyed their health, and neglected their souls and in the meantime have done much barm to others, there­ fore they suffer regret that is often, times deeo and p mgent. However, wbeo we live for God across the vears of life, pray much, read and study His holy Word, and live by it, and then go about doing good to others, we have much to rejoice ovrr. This mnkes life bappv. Our consciences are ciear and our faces shine through the love and grace of God. Halle Iujah I M ygreat.outstanding.de. sire is to do all the good I can, therefore I have preached the blessed Gospel for more than thirty four years and written enough to make more than sixty volues, which has been published in many publications up and down the land. At present I have three books that I ata endeavoring to get into the homes of the people. T he titles of these books are: “ Lost Gems Of The American People.” “Our Re­ fuge and Fortress,” and “ Keepers At Home.” The price is fifty cents per copy. However, I am sending forth these books free to lots of people, especially the sick and af­ flicted, shut ins, aud those in pri- son. If my readers will send me the names and addresses of such people, and those who may be poor and needy, and c n’t buy books, I shall be glad to mat! the books to them free. Please help me do good by sending me the names of such people If you will enclose four cents in stamps to mail the books with I shall appre­ ciate it. However, send the names whether you enclose a stamp or not Lets do all ihe good we can. Thb life will soon be over, therefore it will be wonderful to meet God and know that we have lived for Him and blessed the word Address all mail to me. Wit-Or What? One cocktail or two, or a dozen, will not make a dull man wittv, nor an inept man interesting in conversation; it jnst makes it dif ficult to tell the difference. A group of people fearing that they cannot be interesting to each other, partially drug their self-cri­ ticism, their judgment, their asso­ ciative processes and the inhibitions which make human conduct hu­ man; they give their body more control over tbeir mind, destroy a part of their.insight, their capacity to tell whether the party has been gay, the food good, the conversa tion witty.— Dr. Richard Camp, bell Raines, Minneapolis, Minn.

Where IsUnited Nations We suspect that there are mil-, lions of American, whose know­ ledge of international affairs does not greately exceed outs, who are asking t-he question which puzzles us. We do not recall that close to fifty nations, after long delibera­ tion,, entered into an. agreement to work together in setting world pro blems. In recent months here have been world problems of a most serious kind, particularly as matters stand between the united stated snd Russie Those two na­ tions seem to have occupied them­ selves with their differences with­ out too mnch concern about Unit­ ed Nations We felt at the time, and as yet we have seen nothing to convince ns other wise, that when the framers of United Nations charter inserted the veto power, by which one nation can wreck the whole program, we had somewhat of a parallel to reservations which destroyed the Leagure of Nations. At any rate, if there if any life at all in the United Nations it should manifest itself in instant and de termlned effort to avoid war. For the plain trnth is that the United States and Russia are moving rapid­ ly toward armed conflict, the seri­ ousness of which should be duly considered and recognizei by both nations. The time is r.inning out in which preventative work may be done. The terrihleness of what will follow in the event of war should make both nations exercise every possible effort, to settle their differerences short of war —Ker nersville News. Notes On Rackets It is a particular trait of hnman nature that people will listen to and believe a total stranger when they would scoff at the ^ame thing coming from somebody they know. In Sonth Carolina recently two fast talking young fellows made a killing going aronnd to farmers’ home and “ recharging” their light, ning rods for £7,50 Thev carried some motofs which made weird sounds and attacked a. wire to the lightning rods.

Pennsylvania. The engiueer, George Bow, was driving along the Baltimore pike when he noticed a flurrv of green paper in front of him. Biw stop ped and investigated He found 19 one hundred dollar bills Bow thought o f, hjs wife and three children and all that the mouey might do. Then be took the bills to the police station A short while later, a man hurst into the Glenolden police barracks aud asked if anyone had turned in all the money The man Robert Taylor, Green- ville, South Carolina—identified himself properlv and also described the money. Police counted out • he money and the autamoble deal­ er was on his was on his way. And Bow—he too went on bis way with a smile saying: “Easy come, easy go.” Double Tiouble Lexington Dispatch. Surry County farm officials esti­ mate that the cloudburst there re­ cently resulted in a damage of a million dollars. That tragic state­ ment brought the reply from some of the opponents of flood control in Caldwell and elsewhere in the Upger Yadkin River Valley that proposed dan.s above North WiIkes- boro could provide no protection for Surry But farmers along the river in Yadkin, Forsvth, Davie nnd Da- v.dson who saw hundreds of thous­ ands of dollars’ worth of crops de­ stroyed or damaged find no com fort in this rejoinder The cloud' burst in Surry could hardly have raised the Yadkin dangerously be low the confluence of the Ararat and Lovill Rivers unless the b<g stream had already been swollen by the flood waters that poured down from Caldweli and Western Wilkes.

A Matter Of Numbers (Asheville Citizen) Uuderthe terms of Senator Taft’s bill for Federal Aid to Eiucation, North Carolina would receive a bout $20 miilion per year. This is tbe allotment estimated by the Na­ tional Education Association and published for the first time to our knowledge h y “Congressional Quarterly.” If the figure is cor. rect it would place North Carolina far ahead of any other State iu the amount of Federal benevolence. There is of course, a reason for this sizable figure. The Taft for­ mula is based in part on the num­ ber of children of school age in each State. North Carolina has an enormouy number of edncahle citizens. In 1944.45. children in average daily at .end ace numbered 713,146. New York State, with a population of nearly 13,5 million had only a lit. tie more than twice as many cbilJ. ren attending school. There are many factors which enter into a State’s ability to pro­ vide educational apportunities In. come is perhaps the most import­ ant one, but child population has hardly less importance. In com. mon with most of the South. North Carolina has more children per adult to educate and less dollars to spend for their education than the vast majoritv of states. Our pro. blera is complicated by population figures alone. or r- READ THE AD* Along With the Wewo DAVIE BRICK COMPANY DEALERS IN GOOD COAL Day Phone 194 - Night Fhone 119 Mocksville, N. C.

These milk products also are high in lactose or milk sugar. This is important in poultry feeds because milk sugar favors development of a “friendly bacteria” in the intes­ tines and this helps provide ‘good intestinal health. Proteins found in milk products have a high biological or growth promoting value. They provide bal­ ance to the proteins in cereal feeds. The combination of lactose and high quality protein in these products helps assure more complete assimi­ lation and utilization of other nutri­ ents in mixed feeds. And of course dried skim milk, dried buttermilk or dried cheese whey contain sizable quantities of calcium and phosphorus and the other minerals of milk.

Baukhage financing, taxes and competitive opportunity. There are very definite ways in which the business man might be helped in solvmg these problems, particularly the problem of management. The CED report mentions these: Throughadviceand counsel from his suppliers; through guidance available from the large trade associations; by means of pro­ grams instituted by his own com­ munity; through special services which could be provided by estab­ lished counselling and market re­ search agencies within the means of the small enterprise; more ex­ tended research supported by busi­ ness men and foundation?; special courses in universities, colleges and secondary schools, and expansion of the present services offered free by the department of commerce. These are graphically illustrated in the diagram. M eeting Needs O f Baaineaa But the greatest problem is how to place before the highly-individ- ualistic, hard-to-get-at small busi­ ness man the facts, both as to his needs and how to satisfy them. That is up to the individuals in each community who will take enough interest to read the report (available without charge from the Committee for Economic Develop­ ment, 285 Madison avenue, New York City) and bring it to the atten­ tion of the local business men’s clubs, chambers of commerce and similar groups. The other proposition which is in the making, and which likewise has a purely objective aim, is being carried on by the National Planning association, which is also a non-political, non - profit organization.

NEWS REVIEW CED Scans Reasons for Failures 1 ------ Impartial Groups Attempt Study of Business Flaws By BAUKHAGENews Aswlyst and Commentator. WASHINGTON.—The favorite game in Washington today is a new version of “button, button, who’s got the button.” Only for “button” read: Depression, recession, shakedown, readjustment or what have you—if you have anything. Sen. Robert Taft, as chairman of congress’ joint committee, oh the eco­ nomic report, had a questionnaire sent out to a long list of business men. The gist of the report seemed to be that there was going to be a busmess recession, but it was going to be in the other fellow’s business. Frequently it is too much faith inO the other fellow’s failings and too little regard for one’s own that causes business failures. This is especially true of sm all busi­ nesses. Locating som e of these "failu res” and preventing them was the job re­ cently undertak­ en and reported on by the Com­ mittee for Eco­ nomic Develop­ ment, a non-gov­ ernm ent, non­ partisan group which makes studies of this nature. Just as this organization was completing its work, another some­ what similar group was setting a task for itself in the hope of straightening out some of the other kinks in the business world. This was file National Planning associa­ tion, which is out to discover how the many firms which steadfastly year-in and year-out maintain good relations with their employees do the trick. Both propositions are highly interesting. CED Fsmushea Fair Reporta The Committee for Economic De­ velopment has for its chairman Paul Hoffman who, in private life, is president of Studebaker corpora­ tion. Directing its research and pol­ icy division is Raymond Rubicam, the well-known advertising man. This organization is highly re­ spected. It has a staff of top- notchers doing the research, and its members lean over backwards to be noh-partisan. In fact, at a news conference called here to discuss the re­ port’s findings, one reporter be­ came pretty riled because he couldn’t get Hoffman to com­ ment on the tax situation, one of the hot-spot political issues of the moment.

One: lake all CED re­ ports, it represents the cooperative efforts of top men in the highly practical field of business and top men in the field of science—political economy; a cooperative effort whose sole purpose is to make America a better place in which to live. There are no axes to grind. The second reason the report is important to all of us is that today more than ever, in a world of com­ peting ideologies, the perpetuation of our democracy, our system, de­ pends upon the fostering of small business. Although small business needs assistance, that assistance is diffi­ cult to proffer, because small busi­ ness isn’t an “it”—it is three and a half million small business men, all highly individualistic; all as inde­ pendent and hard to influence as a monkey at the top of a cocoanut palm. And these disunited, sink-or- swim, cock-of-the-walkers make up 98 per cent of the firms operating in this country today. As the CED report puts it:. “Small business is more vir­ile and more durable than might be deduced from the hue and cry heard for many years as to the disadvantages under which it labors. Nonetheless, small businesses are confronted vrith special problems and diffi­ culties that are very real. It is vital to all business and to all citizens that conditions unfavor­ able to small business be rem­ edied wherever possible.” The report finds that the prob­ lems of fixe small business man fall into four categories: management, of both NPA members and non­ members. One is a sponsorship committee composed of 40 business and labor leaders. The other is the research committee made up of 26 experts in the field. The idea was explained to a group of us by Clinton Golden, who will direct the research. Golden explained that what his committee was after was a differ­ ent approach to the question of labor-management relations. Labor Act Is Effective; Weather Hits Corn Crop Verging on mental and political exhaustion after a bitter, two- day fight, weary senators voted -68 to 25 to override President Truman’s veto of the Taft-Hartley labor bill. The action, sustaining a wallop-'®’ ing 331 to 83 house vote to pass the bill over the veto, came on: the heels of a final presidential plea to Sen. Alben Barkley (Dem., Ky.) to muster all possible forces in the senate “to prevent this bill from becoming law.” Opponents of the measure needed 32 votes to uphold the veto, and they waged a desperate, last-ditch battle to attain their objective. Final result, however, was a smash­ ing defeat for Mr. Truman at the hands of the Republican-controlled congress. Highlights of a tooth-and-tongue opposition fight to delay the senate vote as long as possible in order to gain support was an all-night ses- ' PROTEST STRIKES With the Taft-Hartiey act in force only a few hours, scat­ tered protest strikes suddenly blossomed into a full-seale walk­ out of 180,000 soft coal miners. At least 41 mines were closed in 10 states. The walkout ap-' peared to be a spontaneous re­ action on the part of the min­ ers to the new labor law. sion during which Sen. Glen H. Tay­ lor (Dem., Idaho) held the floor for eight hours and 20 minutes and Sen. Wayne Morse (Rep., Ore.) talked for 10 hours and two minutes. It was the longest filibuster in mod­ em congressional history. The Taft-Hartley act, which con­ stitutes a wholesale revision of the Wagner act of 1934, was termed by President Truman in his veto mes­ sage a “shocking piece of legisla­ tion.” He asserted that the measure would “cause more strikes, not fewer,” and would put the country a long step on the dangerous road toward “a totally managed econ­ omy.” “This legislation would encourage distrust, suspicion and arbitrary attitudes,” the President told con­ gress. FLOODED OUT: No Bumper Crop Experts who recently predicted a three billion bushel corn crop this year were hastily revising their es­ timates in the light of continuing torrential rains and widespread floods which have transformed much of the Midwest into a soggy mass of mud. Damage has been particularly heavy in Iowa, extending from one end of the state to the other. Flood­ ing of river bottom lands is only part of the loss. Thousands of acres of crops have been washed out, and the loss is considered irreparable. It is too late to replant with anything except for- Eisenhower age crops and possibly buckwheat if seed is available. On upland farms, ponds and lakes overflowing their boundaries also will cut seriously into com yields. All in all, a bumper com crop is considered extremely unlikely, even with a favorable growing season up to October. - Some authorities have begun to believe that the government’s grain export program should be re-exam­ ined in view of conditions existing on the nation’s farms at present. IKE RESIGNS: Goes Academic General of the Army Dwight D. Eisenhower has resigned as army chief of staff to accept the presi­ dency of Columbia university in New York, effective early next year. His decision to step out as top man in the nation’s military hier­ archy to take the academic post was announced in a statement by Maj. Gen. Floyd L. Parks, chief of the war department’s public relations d i v i s i on. The statement s a id that Eisenhower accepted the Co­ lumbia presiden­ cy with the approval of the- Presi­ dent and the secretary of war. His resignation will become effective “at such time as his superiors may release him from active duty in the army.” The man who mapped the strat­ egy which brought victory to Allied forces in Europe in World War II will retain his rank as a five-star general for life and continue to re­ ceive a compensation of about $15,000 a year. Initial speculation on a successor to Geneval Eisenhower as chief of staff centered on Gen. Omar N. Bradley, now Vet­ erans’ administra­ tion chief, who commanded th e army ground forces in Europe during the war. Other high-ranking generals under con­ sideration for the position were Gen. Jacob L. Devers1 forces chief, and Lt. Gen. J. Lawton Collins, chief of army public infor­ mation. As president of Columbia, Eisen­ hower will be the successor to Nicholas Murray Butler who retired in 1945 and is now Columbia’s president emeritus. The general has also been elected a member of the university’s board of trustees. Bradley ground RAPID GROWTH Industry Expands in Far West NEW YORK.—The Far West sec­ tion of the United States has grown greatly in recent years in popula­ tion, income, industrial stature and international importance, accord­ ing to a study in the Index, a quar­ terly publication of the New York Trust company, just published. “World War n,” the study says, "telescoped into a few years an in­ dustrial expansion in the Far West- which might have taken several decades to accomplish even at the relatively fast rate of development some parts of the area had been enjoying.” The war, it is pointed out, brought new factories and facilities to the region, accelerated develop­ ment of its raw materials, expand­ ed its power supply and increased its population, thereby adding both to its market potential and its labor supply. With its vast store of natu­ ral resources and its rapidly in­ creasing population, the Far West looks forward to a continuing post­ war industrial growth through de­ velopment of new products and new markets.” The seven states included in the study are Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington. “The Far West,” according to the article, “made the largest relative gains in population and income of all the areas of the United States during World War n , and has grown faster than the nation as a whole since 1939, increasing its population by 31 per cent as com­ pared with a 7 per cent increase for the entire United States. Factory jobs in the Far West in the same period rose' 68 per cent as com­ pared with 46 per cent for the na­ tion. In food production, the in­ crease in the Far West amounted to 25 per cent as compared with 23 per cent for the ,United States as a whole. “Continued expansion of industry appears to be of primary impor­ tance to the progress of the Far West,” the article concludes. “Its abundant natural resources, its cli­ mate, its forest riches, its excellent harbors and its scenic beauties have been the chief contributing factors to its rapid growth in the past. To accommodate and support a population increase in the future comparable to that enjoyed so far in this century and particularly in the World War II period, would seem to require the broader econ- omy which its sustained industrial growth is furnishing.” Practical Instructions For the Home Nurse HOME N U R S IN G Giving First Aid ACCIDENTS are bound to hap- pen in any household.

CL /Booimhanq, Balzac’s profound knowledge of human nature caused the great novelist to fancy himself an ex­ pert at reading character in hand­ writing. One day an old woman brought him a little boy’s copybook and said, “Master, what do you think of this child’s possibilities?” Balzac studied the scrawly, un­ tidy handwriting. “Your child?” he asked. "No.” “Some other relative?” he ven­ tured. “None at all,” the woman re­ plied. “Well,” Balzac finally pontifi­ cated, “This chSd is slovenly and profoundly stupid. I fear he will never amount to anything.” "But, master,” the woman cried, “that copybook was your very own when you were a little boy in school.” The profound judge of human nature retired in confusion.

Seeing God in Our Present World LESSON TEXT FOR JULV 13—Job 38:1*7, 16*18, 22, 28, 31, 41. MEMORY SELECTION—The -hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.—Proverbs 20:12. ED ITO R’S NO TE: Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Edu­cation; used by permission. By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D. Of The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. HE earth is the Lord’s and the A fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein” (Ps. 24:1). The man who knows the Lord recognizes that the material and the spiritual world are both God’s, and that there is in the final analysis no dividing line between the secular and the sacred. To keep our thinking straight about the story of Job, we quote an excellent summary by Dr. B. L. Olmstead: “Our lesson today stresses the works of God as seen in nature. The longer lesson of a few chapters (Job 38-41) consists of the whole of the Lord’s answer to Job out of a whirlwind after the dialogue with the three friends is completed, and after a youthful by­ stander, Elihu, had undertaken to give Job an answer (chs. 32-37). "While ElihH was speaking, a storm came up and Elibu used it to portray the greatness, mystery and unsearchableness of God (ch. 37). Elihn uttered many truths, but he did not rid himself of the error that Job was suffering for his sins. When he had finished, the voice of God was heard out of the storm. We .find in the selected Scriptures of oitt printed lesson— I. The God of Creation (w . 1-7). J OB’S friend Elihu had made a rather good speech, but he had missed the real point of Job’s test­ ings. So the Lord rebukes him as one who darkens counsel “by words without knowledge.” How aptly that expresses much that is going on in our day. Brilliant men, leaders in science, economics and government, but without the true knowledge which comes from a simple faith in God, are now fill­ ing this already confused world with millions of words. Yes, words, words, words, that really darken the truth about God and his plan for the world. They flow from the radio, the press, the pulpit, from everywhere, and only add to the confusion. God now brings Job to his feet (v. 3). He is to stand up like a man and answer God. Where was he; when God laid the foundations of the world? If he is so wise, perhaps he knows how God suspended the world in space? Perchance he would like to get out his little meas­ uring line and try to put the plans of the Almighty through the little channel of 'his human brain! These are questions that the professed leaders of our day need to answer, and they need also to come (if by any chance they could humble themselves) to the place that Job did (40:4): “I will lay my hand upon my month.” JobisalsoremindedthattheGod of creation is also n, The Gofl of Life (vv, 16-10), Y H E God who put the springs in I the bottom of the sea, and who has measured the breadth of the earth, is also the God who controls life and death. Men have tried down through the ages to search out the secret of life, and at times they have talked as though they had discov­ ered it. Then one discovers that they have just wrapped up their inability to fathom it in some new scientific words, and we still have not taken that matter in our own hands. That may well be a real blessing,for only the infinite God has the wisdom to determine the limits of man’s days, and the manner of his entry into the gates of death. How good it is to leave such matters in his mighty but tender hands! That leads us to our next point. He is III. The God of Order (w. 22, 28, 31, 41). L I E MAKES the millions of snow- flakes in thousands of intricate patterns—no two alike, but all in marvelous geometric patterns. Can Job understand that—in fact, can you and I understand how he'does: it? Who feeds the birds? Who keeps the stars moving in such order that man can calculate their movements down to the very min­ ute? What about the rain, the hail, the lightning? Look at the animals and their marvelous adaptability to their surround­ ings. The man who thinks all these things are the results of chance, or who talks about “the laws of nature,” only reveals the ntter smallness of his own mind, and his complete lack of comprehen­ sion of the Almighty God.

The lobby was full of soldiers, the Slue and silver wings of the air corps rode almost every shoulder, officers were arguing with the clerk about reservations, and a sullen sergeant, with overhanging brows and a lot of dangling bars on a medal, leaned against a pillar and flicked a contemptuous eye over mere enlisted men. Ric igndred him loftily and waited in line for Ihe house telephone. Three other soldiers were ahead of him, all calling girls, and Ric grew irritable and shrugged his shoulders as he inched along the line. A student of character would have appraised him as a spoiled Dnly son, itching under discipline but improved by it, but Rie saw himself as a man of the world, and when at last he had possession of the phone, his voice was crisp and demanding. “Aren’t you dressed yet? I thought you were going to meet me in the lobby?” The cooing voice of the woman he was mad about came back, sooth­ ingly. “But, Ricky, darling, you’re too early! You said six. I’m not dressed yet.” Ric laughed indulgently. “Haven’t you got your face on yet?” “I haven’t got anything on! I’m a bathing beauty. Go away, Ricky, I’ll hurry as fast as I can.” “Going to wear that yellow thing I like?” “Darling, it’s a rag! Anyway, it’s at the cleaner’s.” “Hurry up then, Sandra. I’m starving.” Ric hung up, and a red­ headed corporal snatched at the in­ strument instantly. Ric walked to Ihe desk. “I telephoned for a sin­ gle room,” he said. “I called Thursday. The name is McFar- tane. Richard McFarlane.” The clerk studied his book. ‘“All right, Private McFarlane, we saved It for you. Best we could do. You want to go up now?” “No, I’ll have dinner first. But give me the key. How much is it? Two dollars?” “Sorry, have to charge three for the week-end.” Ric fumbled out his bill-fold,' looked to see that his pass was in place, flung down three rumpled bills. Then as he turned away he jogged the elbow of a tall officer who was waiting for his .mail. “Sorry, sir,” he said, curtly. Old Cyanide! Ric gave him a straight look and wondered why this Captain Mackey was’studying him so oddly. He felt his necktie and his buttons anxiously, wheeled on his heel. Pleasant Thoughts Of Sandra Ric went back to a corner and slumped on a sofa. Sandra was al­ ways late, but when she did come down every bright curl would be in place and shining, her finger tips would be tinted just the right shade for her skin, her eyes would sparkle and her dress' and hat be chosen with the clever perfection that pleased Ric’s critical and fastidious taste. Sandra had had a tough time, poor kid. But the little bitterness it had put into her spirit had added a tang, a zest to her personality. He had had a few anxious days after Jill’s visit. Sandra had said, “Your sister doesn’t like me, Ricky. She’s a naive little thing, isn’t she?” i Rie blamed Spang Gordon for that. Spang had been an all right guy and a good friend before he got that commission, but lately he had been too stuffed-shirt, irritating with his occasional side-wamings, his moral lectures. Spang was gone now, and Ric had evadgd telling him good-by. That a farewell would have been somewhat complicated by the fact that he owed Spang money, Ric put out of his mind. The score was even, if Spang had made it his business to influence Jill against Sandra. And if Jill went home and blabbed—well, that was O.K., too. He was a man now, and his affairs were his own, and he still flattered himself that he could always wind his ' mother around his little finger. Ric sank lower into the cushions and bol­ stered his self-confidence by re­ membering that it would be a long time before he would have to go home again, and that when the war was over he’d be some kind of hero, no matter what happened to him, and Dooley would kill the fatted calf—anyway a turkey or some­ thing. He was not pleased when Captain Mabkey took the chair next to him, pulled out a cigarette, and said cas­ ually, “Trouble you for a match, soldier?” Ric stood up, a bored scowl on his face, and snapped his lighter. “Yes, sir. Here, sir.” “Snap out of it. That can’t possi­bly happen!” “Thanks. Sit down,” drawled the captain, dragging on the cigarette. “What’s your outfit?” “Four hundred and eleventh, sir.” “Your name is McFarlane? What state?” “Tennessee, sir.” Ric did not sit down. He stood stiffly, itching to be gone, but the cool eyes of the older man held him. ‘I Knew Your > Father in France* “How old are you, McFarlane?” “Twenty-seven, sir.” “Like the army?” “Naturally, sir. I enlisted.” “•Father living?” The catechism went oh. “No, sir, I lost my father—in the last war.” “That so? Why don’t you sit down? Waiting for somebody?” ,"Yes, sir.” Ric dropped back to his seat. “Your father’s name didn’t hap­ pen to be Dick McFarlane, did it? I had a friend named Dick McFar­ lane. Met him in France, in eight­ een.” “Why, yes, sir, his name was Richard. I was named after him.” “Know his regiment?” persisted Old Cyanide. “Yes, sir. It was the 105th, ma­chine-gun, sir.” “I fought with the 105th. Quite a coincidence, meeting you here.” “Yes, sir, it’s very interesting. We never knew what happened to my father. He was killed, of course. A lot of records were lost in that war.” “I lost track of him, too,” went on Captain Mackey. “Though we were pretty close at one time. Thanks for the light, McFarlane.” “You’re very welcome, sir. “And now if the captain will excuse me—" “Good night, soldier.” “Good night, sir. Glad to have met you.” Sandra was waiting by the eleva­ tor when Ric hurried across the lob­ by. She looked displeased. “What did he want?” she de­ manded. Ric loeked a trifle surprised. “Oh, just one of the old boys. He said he knew my father in . France. They’re always reminiscing, fight­ ing that war over again.” Ric took her arm, pressed it a little. “Where do you want to eat, sweet?” “Not here.” Sandra Calvert’s brows were still tensed. “Let’s go to some quiet place where there’s no music and no dancing.” “How about that little place across the street? They’ve got booths in that back room," Ric sug­ gested. “All I want is to be with you.” In the amethyst dimness of a shaded light, Sandra slid into a cor­ ner of the high-backed seat, and with a sigh leaned her yellow head, turbaned with a frail bit of silver gauze, against the cushions. “What’s the matter, Sandra?” Ric asked anxiously. She shook her head, smiling wan­ ly. "I’m just low in my mind, Ricky. Seeing that man did it, I guess. " “Old Cyanide? Captain Mackey, I mean? He smiled at me. That’s something for the book. I never saw him wear a human expression before.” “It brought so many things back,” she said. “You know, he was a friend of Win’s, in Hawaii.” “You knew him over there?” “We knew all the officers, nat­ urally. Mackey was a major then. They’re both part of all that I’m trying to forget.' “I know you had a rotten time, Sandra.” Ric laid his hand over hers. “But it’s all behind you. This is tonight, and this is us—Sandra and Ricky. It’s Sandra and Ricky from now on, so forget that guy and all that stuff you left behind in the islands.” “You’re so sweet, Ricky. It’s just that seeing Mackey again made me feel old! Old and bitter. And I want to be young for you, Ricky. I am young. It’s just that life reached out and snatched me up so early. I was too young and silly to know what I was doing. Now I’m all battered and tarnished by life, and I want to be lovely and brand-new for you.” She was al­ most tearful. Ric looked worried. “Sandra, I’ve told you often enough that you’re the loveliest thing alive! As for brand-new girls, they’re a dime a dozen in this town, any town. They’re all breathless, they wear those horrible saddle-' shoes and sweaters, they cling, they gurgle, they make me sick! You’re different. As different from those gushy things as a daiquiri is dif­ ferent from a strawberry soda! Stop moping! Let’s have fun.” “Ricky, I can’t!” She bit her lip, and a large round tear rolled over her eyelids. “I can’t get rid of this horrid feeling. I feel as though something ghastly had laid a hand on my shoulder, something I can’t shake off. Something that wanted to separate you and me.” "Fat chance!” Ric moved closer, put his arm around her. “Snap out of it. That can’t possibly happen. Now, decide what you want to eat. I’m starved. I never saw you get hysterical before.” “I don’t think it’s hysteria, it hurts too much. Deep down. Like a premonition. Don’t ever leave me, Ricky. I can’t live without you!” ‘I may have to leave, you know. I’m in the army,” Ric reminded her. “But you’ll stay in my heart? You won’t go away anil forget me?” Her voice was a fluty sob. “Silly girl! How about a lot of hot coffee? Get hold of yourself, Sandra. I don’t know you when you’re like this.” She shook the tears from her eyes, smiled faintly, and got out a mirror to repair her make-up. “I’m so sorry, Ricky. I don’t know when I’ve let myself go this way, before. It was thinking about Win, I guess. He hurt me so much —it does hurt to be cheated, to believe in some one and then find you’ve been a trusting fool.1 “Forget that heel, will you?” Ric spoke more sharply than he intend­ ed, and sparks glinted for an in­ stant in Sandra’s eyes. Then his arm tightened around her, and he gave her a Uttle shake. “I’m jeal­ ous, sweet. Didn’t I tell you? When I think of that fellow making you cry, breaking your heart, I see green and it makes me nasty. Let’s drop the whole thing and enjoy this Saturday night.. We haven’t got a lot more of them, maybe.” Ric Begins to Feel Uneasy “What will I do when you leave me?” She nestled close under his arm, small and helpless and lov­able. “Ricky, I’ll die!” You’U die?” He grinned down at her. ‘111 be in some place full of fleas and mud, eating from a tin pan, or roUed up in a wet pup tent with my feet sticking out into a cold rain, and I’ll be thinking oi you, curled up in a warm bed—and you’ll die!” “I’ll be dreaming of you,” she said, wistfully. “About me? Or about Win Cal­vert?” ‘That would be a nightmare. I Tdwake up screaming. And then I’d have to take two aspirins and bi­carbonate of soda.” They both laughed at that, and settled down to ordering their din­ ner. But Ric did not shake oft his unease entirely. It followed him to the Uttle hotel room, and though it was very late when he left Sandra, he could not sleep. She wor­ ried and puzzled him. She was so smooth at times, so assured, and yet underneath so young and sweet and so darned helpless! She’d had to learn that -cool arrogance, oi course. A beautiful woman alone in the world, quivering like a drum under the restless feet of fighting men. (TO BE CONTINUED) HOBBY FAYS OFF . . . Two Atlanta school children examine a new school design, built in miniature by R. F. Snyder, Atlanta business man. Snyder’s model-building avocation resulted in this revolution­ ary school design which has been converted to full-scale construction of rural schools in the South. NO MORE iHOOKEY1 Inyentive Salesm an P erfects R evolutionary School D esign ATLANTA, GA.—An inventive salesman who is neither parent nor educator paradoxically has devised a rural school from which even the most recalcitrant children may be less loathe to play “hookey” in future. He is R. F. (Russ) Snyder, Atlanta businessman, who teamed up his business with a hobby to produce a school design in miniature that has since been^ translated into full-scale construc­ tion. The feature calculated to hold the interest of pupils is that class­ rooms are almost as "outdoors” as the play-yard. Several months ago Snyder at­ tended the southeastern school con­ ference in the interests of Libbey- Owens-Ford Glass company and came home with an idea buzzing in his head. “Most kids don’t like to stay indoors,” he reasoned, “espe­ cially when the weather is nice outdoors. So why not bring the _ outdoors in to them?” He sat up nights for two months, he says, building in his workshop a two-room school model. I opened up the walls to all out­ doors with the biggest windows pos­ sible. And I found that twice or three times more daylight could be supplied to some of the desks than in traditional school design. Daylight has an important bearing on children’s eyesight. “The sun, you know, also can be used to help heat the school during cold months. And the large win­ dows dispel that cooped-up feeling and give spaciousness to rooms.” Snyder set up his completed mod­ el in the company’s display rooms and invited Atlanta architects and educational officials to inspect it. Enthused with his idea, he began addressing architects’ meetings throughout the state and explain­ ing his plans to parents’ organiza­ tions and child welfare groups. His school model featured a whole wall of glass to the south, with the' roof extended to shield the big win­ dow against the sun in the extreme­ ly hot school months. Opposite, without sacrificing blackboard space, he placed a clerestory win­ dow high up : under the roof to ad­ mit north light. In the north room, he reversed the window arrangement and glazed the south clerestory window with heat-absorbing and glare-reducing glass to assure balanced lighting. Today, rural schools pat­ terned after Snyder’s design to “engineer” the greatest possi­ ble amount of daylight into classrooms are actually under construction in the South. Snyder has a quotation, too, from one of the world’s authorities on lighting to bolster his theory: “If from the age of five years,” it says, “children did their reading and performed their other tasks of near vision in the abundant light of a window in daytime, there would be fewer wearing or needing eye­ glasses when they finished school.” He figures he may have a hand in putting a good many of the nation’s children in that “abundant” light in the years to come. Personality Coarse Offered in School NEW YORK, N. Y.—Personality courses, designed to teach students how to acquire a “pleasant man­ ner,” are being offered in 27 voca­ tional high schools here. The program was started on rec­ ommendation; of employers who said that “a far greater percentage of persons lose their jobs because of personality difficulties than be­ cause of inefficiency,” George F. Pigott Jr., assistant superintendent, explained. r Eren Faces Are Red At This Fire Alarm ANGELS CAMP, CALIF. — Al­ though the whole volunteer fire de­ partment, 20 men strong, rushed out to Charles Kendall’s blazing house trailer, the vehicle was a total loss. The boys' forgot to bring the fire trucks. The trucks had been moved to an auxiliary building and the vol­ unteers, seeing the old garage emp­ ty, assumed earlier comers had tak­ en the trucks. d p <£> AVIATION NOIES Airport Chatter Establishment of an “air-age' class in Kent, Wash., high school is planned from proceeds of the city’s first Sky Fair, staged at the Kent airport under' auspices of the Iaons club. Highlights of the program in­ cluded formation flying by 30 navy planes, stunt flying, an air style show for women, exhibitions of air­ craft and military equipment, para­ chute jumps and a helicopter dem­ onstration. . . . Colorado communi­ ties seeking airport improvements will be aided by a new state pro­ gram calling for state contributions to help the local communitities nfatch federal funds allocated un­ der the 1947 airport program. De­ spite budget cuts, Colorado still is eligible for about $250,000 of federal grants. Communities seeking air­ port . improvements are Trinidad, Gunnison, Rifle, Monte Vista and Greeley. . . . A tour of the U. S. dryland field station at Akron, Colo., was arranged for Colorado flying farmers. The farmers and ranchers, most of ' whom piloted their own planes, were guests at a flight breakfast after their arrival in Akron. A lawsuit on file in Santa Mon­ ica, Calif., court accuses heli­ copter pilots Of using their ma­ chines to peep at women sun bathers “attired either scantily or not at all” at a swank beach club. The suit, seeking an in­ junction ... against the flying “peeping Toms,” named as de­ fendant the Los Angeles Air­ ways, Inc., whose helicopter mail rotite passes near the club. * * * Military aviation appropriations after World War I made possible the first air mail service, the start of aerial forest patrol, crop dusting and aerial mapping.

Piper reports that personal flying is increasing In the Middle West, where farmers and ranchers have found that it solves their transportation prob­ lems in the spaces where roads are few and weather equable.

Doctor Hypnotizes Wild Zoo Animals by Voice Demonstration of man’s ability to hypnotize wild animals was giv­ en by a Hungarian physician at the Budapest zoo in 1937. Chiefly by the tone of his voice, he put into a hypnotic state a dozen of the zoo’s most feared ani­ mals, including a surly lion, a bad-tempered swan and a bear that had mauled his keeper on several occasions. In remodeling your kitchen it is a good idea to redesign it as a precautionary measure against fire. To do this be sure curtains, doors and wooden cabinets are not too close to the range.

It benefits employees, because the advertiser must be more fair and just than the employer who has no obligation to the public.

It’s off to a good start. You ms? call it industrial statesmanship, :! you want to, or you may call it sell­ ing the American way of life. Whr i it amounts to is an all-out effort cn the part of each one of us Io demonstrate the faith we have i i our economic system. So doing, we shall weather any present or future crisis. There must be no tongue-in-chee’: when we assert that never has any other system given a people sc much; nor has any other system ; brighter future. We Americans ar not generally an emot'onal people. We can read history without weep­ ing. Europeans think of us as more "practical" and less idealistic. A; any rate, we have been so busy the. we have largely overlooked our sell ing job, until time is'later than vv- thought. SeiIing Ourselves An industrialist recently indulge ' in a bit of analysis: “The simple fa<: that our American-style processes t . finance, production, distribution am. selling actually produce more fo: more people than does any other sc: of processes ever devised by man. has never been planted deeply in the minds of our people—at least not tc. the extent that it becomes an eve; present and active part of the pub lie consciousness.” I am afraid this is too true. I’ we had actually sold ourselves o: America through the years, wr would never have seen the phenome­ non of certain of our public figures playing peek-a-boo with the Commu­ nists. There would be genuine appreciation of the accomplish­ ments and potentialities of Amer­ ica in every university chair In the land. CampaignofTruth Against so many rampant, fanat­ ical destroyers, a clean and con­ stant campaign of truth, well or­ ganized and supported, can be ef­ fective. Against the doubters and the cynics, this great public relr tions program must be tiechin wir all-out effort to produce goods fo the American peonle, through an economy of abundance. Without good works, your theory falls flat. Only first understand the system, if you please, then it’s easier to make it work. Too many somehow have decided that business, in this "capitalistic” country, is altogether bad. These folks have not considered, however, how many cherished things the'- would have to give up if they got rid of “capitalism.” Without pri- vate initiative in business and in­ dustry, in labor, and in professional life, we would sink to the level of some of our critics. We take a lot of things for grant- «d. Yet we have a job to do. Ifwe the product we make, but let u« sell the product as a symbol of tie freedom under which it is made Ii we are workmen, let us consider our jobs as by-products of the free­ dom under which we live. And no matter what we are, let us know that this sweet land of liberty offers us a freedom of opportunity as in­ dividuals that we can find nowhere else on this planet.

Treasury Depart Opportunity Knocks HEAD the 4H»S a y , COULD YOU '•EVER FORGET? The way ahead seemed clear. In a moment of careless relaxation the driver swung his eyes from the road. In that same moment a ball bounced into the street — after it ran a little child. It was only a brief moment) but long enough for a lifetime of regret. Last year more than 3,500 American children under the age of 14 were killed by automobiles, 160,000 were injured. This State, in some degree, contributed to that toll. With school days here again, child casualties will rise unless every individual driver makes it his self-appeinted responsibility to safeguard these young lives from harm. When driving through school zones—and streets where children are at play—use extreme caution. Always be ready for split-second action, even though moving at moderate speed. Anticipate the un­ expected. There’s no indemnity that can restore a human life. If, because of one careless act of yours, a child died or its young body were maimed—could you ever forget?

Popular hostesses find that it pays to include corn relish in their home canning plans.

A Heart Of CompassioD Rev. Walter E. Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C- It is great to have a heart of compassion. This characterized our blessed Lord when He was on earth. He went about doing good unto all classes of humanity as much as possible, and especially unto the door and needy. sick and afflicted, downcast and forsaken. He would have wonderfully bless­ ed all mankind if they bad accept ed him as their Savior, loved, ser­ ved, worshipped and obeyed Him. Too many found fiult of Him, re jected.Him, despised His teaching and doctrine, and the work He came to do, therefore Ho could not bless them. However, it is wonderful to rea Iize how Jesus had compassion on all who called upon hi m in humi­ lity, earnestness and siucerity. He had compassion the hungry and fed them with a few Ioavesand fishes; had compassion on those who were halt maimed and blind, healing tHeir bodies of disease and opening their eyes; had compassion on those who were lunatic, or deaf, or bound by some bodily infirmity, or by the devil in their souls, and as they call upon Him for help He never turned them away. He beard the cries of the poor lepers; heard the cries of those possessed with de moos; heard the crics of those who came to Him for beld for loved ones; heard the cries of those who came 'o Him for help for loved ones; heard the cries of lost souls He turned none away. He was and Is the compassionate Christ. Yes. he had compassion, deep com­ passion, wonderful compassion when on earth, and we are told that He is "the same vesterda>, to­ day, nnd forever.” Praise His holv name. The SD irit of compassion is poss­ essed by all Christians. This is as it should be. Even though some­ times we are abused and mistreat­ ed, vet deep in our hearts we ' are tender toward our persecutors and our enemies. Certainly we have no ill will toward anyone. We do good for evil, and prav tor those who despitetuHy use us, say evit things about us, and do us wrong. We are thinking now of a letter received from one of readers re eeutly, telling of the straying a way of a loved one. In fact this loved one has given her much trou­ ble, which has caused her to carry a heavy, sad, broken heart, and caused many sleepless hours, no doubt. However, the straying loved one has come into rather a pitiable plight, and New Flonr Mill The new flour mill begin built by J. G. Stroud, of County Line, is nearing completion and machi­ nery is being placed. The new mill replaces the old mill located near Mr. Stroud’s home, which he has operated for many years. The mill is located on the Harmany highway just west of the junction of Highways 64 and 901. The building is modem and up-to- date and will be ready for busi­ ness in the near future. Some Progress In 50 Years John Frank Johnson, of Farm­ ington, sends us word that some progress has been made in the past 50 years in transporting mail from die depot to the Mocksville pastoffice. John says that 50 years ago he was transporting the mail over this route in a push cart. He thinks that in another 50 years motor truck may be used. Now Available The Health Department an­ nounces that it now has on hand an ample supply of fresh smallpox vaccine. When the Pre-School Clinics were conducted in this county last spring, many children were not vaccinated against smallpot due to the fact that the vaccine was too weak to be of any value. These vaccinations had to be de­ ferred until the State Laboratory of Hygiene could manufacture a completely new supply for the en­ tire state. As the State Laws require suc­ cessful vaccination against small­ pox before a child can be enroll­ ed in sehool next fall, parents should take the necessary steps to have their children vaccinated be­ fore the schools open. All private physicians are pre­ pared to do these vaccinations, or the children may be taken to the weekly clinics conducted by the local Health Department. It is advisable to have these vac­ cinations done now. Later in the season “Fall Sores” will be pre­ valent which may result in com­ plications.

Farmers Borrow Money The Federal Land Bank of Co­ lumbia made a total of slighdy more than eleven million dollars in new long-term mortgage loans to farmers for the fiscal year end­ ing June 30, according to a state­ ment received from • Julian H. Scarborough, president 0 f the bank, by Geo. L. Crater, secretary- treasurer of the National Farm Loan Association. These loans which were made through local national farm loan associations represent the largest volume of the new loans for any year since 1934, and were distri­ buted as follows: North Carolina $3,257,195, South Carolina $1,808,- 761, Georgia $3,643,082, and Flori­ da $2,257,195. “Of the above amount, loans a- mounting to $146,925.00 were made through the local National Farm Loan Associ :.tion,” Secre- tary-Treasurer Crater said. Far Cr? to Swimming Hole Down in rural Mecklenburg the forces of public decency are taking the rag off the bushes in their drive against countv lads aud lasses who use the old swimming holes in the "crick” or river without benefit of bath'Vg suits. How times have changed! When many of us middle aged Tar Heels were voung sprouts and roamed the Piedc.ont’s charming bncolic haunts nobody thereabouts such things as bathing suits. When one wanted to take a dip in the creek or the river, he pulled off his cloth­ es and took a dip in the creek or river. If and when persons nf the opposite sex were seen approaching, one merely swam out into deep water and allowed no part of his physiognomy save bis head and neck to show above the placid waters of the stre im. Put the world ‘‘do move/’ and we must pay the price of progress. Bucolic haunts are not as sparsely settled as they once were. In many places modern hard-surfaced high­ ways stretch along the stream banks The old swimming bole, once located in schedule spots where the foot of the fsmale rarely ventured, now may be a part of a lake where there are as many young women In the water as there are boys and men. The mischie­ vous youngsters ■ who didn’t care for swimming but preferred to bide in the bushes and tie knots in he swimmers’ clothes now may have offspring who run the concession «tand at swimming pools and bath­ ing beaches. AU this perhaps is for the better. Yet do these modern youngsters with all their new new privileges and facilities for recreation really have anything like the fun which was eujoyed by the barefooted, overalled country boys who caught catfish and suckers with a hook and string fastened to a cane, and paddled nude in the millrace or the “old swimming hole?—Twin- City Sentinel.

Parents . . . Stop Read And Consider Dr. George W. Crane, noted psychologist, gives these twelre “ Don’ts” for parents: 1. Don’t think that money can ever take the place of personal con. tacts with your child. 2. Don’t say "run along and don't bother me now for I want to read my paper,’’ tbrreby alienating your child 3. Don't give your child a large allowance, Gift money isn’t valu­ ed very Highly. “ Easy come, easy g o . ” 4. Don’t quarrel with your mate -t dinner and then make up onlv after the child is in bed and can’t see your reconciliation. 5. Don’t keep vonr nose in the paper of your ear to the radio every night in the week. Revive vonr romance with your mate by going through the old motions of court ship. 6. Don’t bar your children from participation in fnmily recreation or amusement. 7. Don’t grumble about the chil­ dren’s noise when they have their oals in, and thus drive them else­ where 8. Don’t make glib pledges ot future rewards for better school marks, and then forget such pro­ mises 9. Don’t lie abed on Sunday or treat it solely as a holiday with uo emphasis on ethical training. 10. Don’t wish your child in and out of different schools every year or so, thereby preventing his de. velopment of deep friendships with bis pals. 11. Don’t let your child reach adulthood of budgeting or money management Not On Sunday Night On Lord’s Day morn the brethren all Come out to worship God* They like to think of Jesus’ love; How Calvary’s path He trod. They enjoy comm.inion sweet. And worship with their might But in this way they’re queer to me— They don't come back that night. On Lord’s Day morn’ they love to sing The song of truth and right: They make the joyful chorus ring But not on. Sunday night. Rach Lord’s Dav morn’ they pray that God Will help them win the fight, Bnt some seem not to need Him long; They don’t come back that nigbt. On Lord's Day morn’ they’re ont to church, They’ve come the truth to seek: On Sunday morn’ their faith is strong, On Sunday nigbt it’s WEAK! They like to hear a sermon grand, They listen with delight; (That i,, if it’s Sunday tuorj1 — They don’t come back that night.) The finest sermon ever heard When preached to emptv seats Will not rescue the sinnrr’s soul From the doom that it shall meet.

C. & MiIkCooIingWith Electricity Sound Better Quality Product Results at Small Cost Milk customers don’t pay off on the quality of milk as it is pro­ duced on the farm. It’s quality at the point of sale that puts money in the bank. The dairy farmer, therefore, faces a double task—to produce good milk 1««-. at milking time, and to preserve ness until his prod­ uct has been sold. P reservation of quality requires that milk be cooled below 50 degrees within approxi­ mately an hour and a half after it is drawn in order to check bacteria growth and eliminate souring and off-flavors. Water alone is not a satisfactory cooling agent, because only in rare instances is its temperature lower than 60 degrees. The addition of ice to water will help, but storage difficulties and the work involved in keeping the tank adequately sup­ plied present certain obstacles to its use. In addition, its cost, if pur­ chased, often is so high as to offset the price received for satisfactorily cooled milk. Because of this situation many electric milk coolers (either of the tank or aeroator type) are being in- staUed on electrified farms. Such coolers, according to the Pennsyl­ vania State college school of agri­ culture, meet the farmer’s require­ ments for they are “designed to cool fresh milk quickly, uniformly and economically.” On the basis of tests conducted recently on 101 electrified New York state farms, the cost of cooling milk electrically averages from 12 to 13.5 cents per hundred pounds. The pow­ er rate in the test area was 3 cents per kilowatt hour of power, which is about Vz cent lower than the na­ tional farm electricity rate.

WASHINGTON.—This sum m er the W arm Springs Infantile P aralysis foundation turned over a little five-room house on the m ountainside to lie state of G eorgia, which will run it as a m u­ seum and national shrine. And so another of the “Little White Houses” goes back to the people. It is the only one in which a presi­ dent spent his last days. In one of its three bedroom s President Roosevelt died. In its living room he spoke his last words. The Warm Springs house was different from other summer hideaways of presidents because it was really a home. The late President Roosevelt himself built it in 1932 at a cost of $8,700. He willed it to the infantile paralysis Ioanflation, It was a very simple structure in which the archi­ tecture i the locality and a lew Rooseveltian ideas are blended. There are (lie two Ledrooms, a third fluost room, a living room, a lolchen and that’s all, But there is a view that would make a Park avenue penthouse owner jealous. Uke all of the houses which Pres-^ ident Roosevelt occupied, this little cottage is crammed with history, much of it still unwritten. Warm Springs was the symbol of Roosevelt’s victory over disease and pain. Since then, largely be­ cause of his ef­ forts, many hun­ dreds of others have achieved similar victories in the commu­ nity of which the "Little White House” was a part. The simple cottage was also the scene of his death. He was posing for a por- Baukhage trait when the “terrible headache” came. He had signed his letters for the day and in his last signature, which I have seen, there is evidence that death already was "plucking at his sleeve.” Late in the war, when it was diffi­ cult to go far from Washington, an­ other "summer White House” in Maryland was established. It was given the name “Shangri-la.” The President himself named it jokingly when, because of security reasons during the war, its location had to be concealed. It was discovered, thanks to a slip of the tongue on the part of Mrs. Roosevelt, and because absurd stories were written about the tremendous amount of money which had been expended on It-as a matter of fact it cost very little to convert—it was thrown open to the press. One article described its “million dollar pool.” I have seen the pool. It is less than 20 feet across. PoUy- wogs wiggle in it, rocks green with years of moss, surround it. It has been there a long time and I doubt if anyone ever had the temerity to bathe in it, although "Shangri-la” was a deserted boys’ camp when it was taken over. It sits high on a mountain top beside a splashing trout stream surrounded by thick woods. Today there is one overstuffed chair in the corner of the solarium that somehow always seems to get turned around at a certain angle. Turned that way, a side table is v. ithin easy reach, a push button and a hand telephone with an ex­ tension number on it. Lift it and the answer comes, “White House.” It connects directly with the switch­ board at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue. It gives me a rather strange feeling to look at that chair- empty—and realize what mes­ sages went over the telephone beside it, what words were dic­ tated while the long cigarette holder moved nervously to the ash tray on the table at its arm. President Truman has not used “Shangri-la” very often but when he goes there next he and Mrs. Truman will find a retreat which give's them more privacy than prob­ ably any other spot on earth. Tucked away in the deep woods is a new, little cabin, just big enough for two. No guest room, no parlor, just a cozy cottage with a neat, modern kitchen, a dining room- sitting room with a fireplace: There two is a company, three a crowd. A sanctuary any president de­ serves.

Although the United States army began being hot weather host to chief executives in Buchanan’s time and continued to do so into the regime of the dashing Arthur, it WfiS because Lincoln lived at the “collafle11 just wllkin He Eaflle Gale of lie SoHiers1 Bome (now well within the city of Washington proper but once a distant suburb) that this summer White House be­ came famous as the Lincoln Cot­ tage. • When Grover Cleveland became president, however, and shortly thereafter took a bride, he felt that it was improper to live on the army in the summer months. So he bought a place of his own called Red Oak on a high hill in the capi­ tal now known, in honor of his short domicile there, as Cleveland Park. It was a plain farm house when he bought it but it soon blossomed into a comfortable home. Then Washington was a town of some 175,000 people (1886) and Cleveland had an unobstructed view over the whole panorama down to the Potomac itself. When he was defeated he sold the place. When reelected he bought an­ other. i i ! « fliers’ Home tradition and it was really not until the time of Presi­ dent Taft that a “working” summer headquarters was set up. Other presidents took vacations — Theo­ dore Roosevelt “went home” to his beloved Sagamore HUl on Oyster Bay with a secretary or two. Presi­ dent Taft went to Beverly, Mass. When President Wilson went to Cornish, N. H., it was for rest and reeuperation. In 1916 he chose the imposing Shadow Lawn in New Jersey and by that time war was impending and his staff went with him. President Harding didn't want to “get away.” He wanted people, lots of them, around him—also 52 cards. President Coolidge, too, it was said, didn’t know what to do with a vacation but he made as geographi­ cally varied a selection of summer White House sites as any president. First it was Swampscott where, as one dispatch ppt it, he was “teth­ ered to a telegraph wire.” As a matter of fact no telegraph wires actually entered "White Court,” the great colonial mansion perched on the rim of New England’s rock- bound coast, but the telephone did and he made regular trips to near­ by Lynn where the offices were located. In 1926 he chose an Adirondack “camp,” near Paul Smith’s. One of those primitive places millionaires build in the wilderness equipped with all the comforts of a modern hotel. Kirkwood Camp, owned by Irvin Kirkwood, a newspaper pub­ lisher, was such a place, The next year Coolidge repaired to the Black Hills of South Dakota wtere Le H In a spacious IoJfle among ILe lroul slreams, guarJeJ by a troop of cavalry and making a long, twice-weekly journey to Rapid City to attend to affairs of state and interview the press. The next year he again went to Wisconsin and on an island in a lake 28 miles southeast of Superior, lived in Cedar Lodge, making necessary a 56-mile trip three times a week. President Hoover, when he took office, almost immediately went down into his own well-lined jeans and for $15,000 bought “Rapidan,” another mountain stronghold in the Blue Ridges. When he left office he promptly deeded the tract to the commonwealth of Virginia, hoping perhaps, other presidential camp­ fires would burn there. But his suc­ cessor chose otherwise. Warm Springs belongs to the state of Georgia, countless thou­ sands will visit it, as they do Hyde Park and other local monuments. a national park system. The next president, whoever he may be, may have it if he wishes, without extra expense to the tax­ payer. But who knows? He may have a dream-house, realization of which we need hardly begrudge him. m s S i M fl1M G ff,J w iia ta li ltd »ik Inti tin I lk Iliaif built this highly efficient, light weight tractor.

NEWS REVIEW New Dust Bowl Feared; Corn Outlook Improves Thinking men—experienced ranchers, grain men and bankers in the West—are looking worriedly ahead to a revival of the dread­ ed dust bowl because transient farm ers are plowing up thousands of acres of virgin range to plant wheat which will bring them two dollars a bushel. _____ two-’5'Under the stimulus of the dollar wheat, buffalo grass is being turned over at an unprecedented rate, and the prediction is that when it quits raining the dust bowl will stage a savage comeback. The West again has become a paradise for speculators who are buying up land for $15 to $25 an acre and planting it in wheat. One good crop will pay for the land and leave them a good profit besides. Suitable primarily for grazing, the land normally is priced at from $2 to $10 an acre. “Suitcase farmers” roll in with their tractors, plows and drills, put in a wheat crop and then leave until it is time to harvest the grain. No one stays to check the inevitable wind erosion. The ciurent world food shortage offers some justification for expand­ ing the wheat crop, but it would be difficult to maintain that rational outlook if resulting dust storms caused a recurrence of the mass ruin and exodus from the dust bowl of the 1930s. Corn Prospect^ As July entered the Midwest’s agricultural scene with a gush of warm air and sunshine, prospects appeared reasonably good for a fair-sized crop of corn in Minnesota and South Dakota this year. However, in those states, as in the rest of the com belt, a long period of favorable weather conditions is most essential. The frequent, heavy rains must stop in order that satu­ rated fields can return to normal. O lU Just Friends His Excellency, the Most Rev- erend Dr. Illu M in is, arch- bishop of Trivandrum, India, en­ joys visit with baby Claude, youngest of the prolific Dionne family which also includes quin­ tuplets. The two met in Ottawa, Canada. nesota and South Dakota is about equal to that of last year, but heavy losses have been incurred as a re­ sult of excessive rain. Most observ­ ers agree that while the growing corn crop is two to three weeks be­ hind last year it still has time to stage a comeback, given favorable weather. Such a shortened growing period, however, may result in reduced yields. Also, growers in the two states are reported to have turned, in the past year, to planting com requiring a shorter growing period than formerly. Therefore, while the com may mature relatively earlier than formerly, it will do so at the expense of a smaller yield an acre.

FAVORABLE FORECAST Downward Price Trend Seen NEW YORK.—With the postwar inflationary price rise apparently nearing an end, the probabilities seem to favor a downward move­ ment of the price index in the next 12 months, it is predicted in a re­ port on “The Price Level” released by Bankers Trust company. The report, prepared by Roy L. Reierson of the bank’s economic de­ partment, added that "the prices of some manufactured goods may show a further modest, and prob­ ably temporary, rise, but it is be­ lieved that any such movement will be more than offset by declines in the prices of farm and food com­ modities and other materials.” The bank warned, however, that a combination of contingencies sifch as bad weather and a substantial deterioration of domestic crop pros­ pects could upset its forecast. After examining the factors in­ volved in the present rise as com­ pared with those in the price jump following World War I, the bank said, "since the all - commodity wholesale price index has not in­creased as much this time as in World War I, it is likely that the de­ cline in the price level will not be as severe during this correction period as it was in 1920-1921.” The bank cited a number of fac­ tors to support its view. A collapse in farm prices does not appear im­ minent in the near future, it said. Food prices, although below recent highs, are supported by a high level of employment and national in­ come. Prices of many manufac­ tured goods have risen only -mod­ estly despite greatly increased costs of labor and materials. Furthermore, it is pointed out, the greatly increased supply ofsavings and liquid assets may pro­ vide some support for the price level. The business inventory situa­ tion, moreover, does not appear comparable to the excessive mone­ tary speculation following World War I. Ancient DaiJs ‘Gave Bride Away’; ‘Best Man’ There Our present-day wedding tradi­ tion is a curious blend of new fash­ ions, old manners, quaint survi­ vals and superstitious beliefs. There are writers who stoutly iila h lta tm rtlsw i employed in the primitive cap. ture of brides. The best man rep­ resents the warrior who ran inter­ ference for his friend while the latter dragged off his bride-to-be whom he had smacked uncon­ scious (to avoid any ugly wran­ gling that would m ar the begin­ ning of their new life together). Presence of the bride’s father is a memorial of the sire, who, out­ distanced and out-numbered, was forced to “give the bride away.” * Cuotanteed byGood Housekeeping Orahpma SPEARIH'... \ f Heavens to Betsy, gossipin’s just like stealin’.

When served with salad and relishes, beverage and fruit, you have a complete meal ready in no time. It’s estimated that sandwiches are eaten at the rate of 30 million daily here in the Unit­ ed States, and it’s no wonder, because they are one of the sim­ plest, most nour- . ishing foods to serve. Do you like to make suppers simple on hot. s w e ltering • nights? Serve a sandwich-salad supper on the cool back porch. Do you like to whip up a picnic at a moment’s notice? Then wrap to­ gether a few sandwiches, fruit and beverage to take along to beach or woods. Simplest of all sandwiches is the slice of meat between two pieces of bread; but it tastes even better if you add some toothsome spread or accompaniment to it, such as: 1. Cover with a thin slice of cranberry jelly, especially ham or roast pork. 2. Cover with thinly sliced sweet or sour pickles or mus­ tard. 3. Spread with horseradish mixed with mayonnaise. 4. Cover with lettuce and boiled dressing or sandwich spread. 5. Cover with chili sauce or catsup. When you have leftover meat, chop it or put it through the meat grinder and serve in any of these ways: 1. Mix with mustard and sea­ son with chopped pimiento or green pepper. 2. Mix with equal parts of finely shredded cabbage and serve with chopped pickle or onion. 3. Season with chow-chow or pickle relish and season with enough boiled dressing or may­ onnaise to mix through. 4. Mix with chopped olives, green pepper and dressing. 5. Mix with chopped hard- cooked eggs, chopped green pepper and mayonnaise. 6. Mix with chopped celery and moisten with mayonnaise. When you plan to feed a bunch of hearty eaters and the weather is a bit on the crisp side, then serve hot sandwiches for a real treat. The barbecued type is ideal for the occasion.

Famed Short Grass Country Of Kansas ‘Outgrows’ Name GARDEN CITY, KAN. — Famed since covered wagon days as the short grass country, the great high plains area extending roughly from central Kansas to the Colorado foothills is “outgrowing” its name this year. “Where’s the short grass?” That’s a common question as mystified visitors in this western re- ❖ gion look around this season. The short grass has become long grass, the often short wheat is taU wheat and the country itself just doesn’t look the same. Nature is running riot. Moisture penetrates the ground to a depth of 8 to 12 feet. In May, sometimes- a dry month, 5.28 inches of rain fell here. During the wheat growing season since September fields have been soaked by 23.29 inches of rain. From Hie days when there was little but buffalo to see the plains and fatten on them, the grass, known as buffalo grass or short grass, has been famous for its succulence despite the fact that it lies close to the ground, never growing tall like bluegrass. But this year even that type of grass—what little the plows have left as virgin sod —is taller and more luxuriant than ever before. • In the sandhills, along the Arkan­ sas river pastures are growing so fast that an extraordinarily large number of cattle can be grazed. Even the sagebrush and cactus are reveling in the moisture. It is the wheat itself, however, which shows the most marked bene­ fit from the soaking. Mothers are getting afraid to let children play around the fields—if they venture far among the stalks they may be hard to find. Many fields have wheat up to men s shoulders. Where fields have been sowed right up to narrow roads, motorists enjoy reaching out of car windows to pluck the large, perfectly filled heads. Some fields are so large that a person cannot see across them from a car. Combines in some cases make a three-mile drive without turning. Truly it is a record-breaking year for western Kansas. Precautions Listed For Polio Outbreak Observance of six simple precau­ tions may help you avoid infantile paralysis should outbreaks occur in your community this summer, ac­ cording to Dr. Hart E. Van Riper, medical director of National Foun­ dation for Infantile Parlysis. These common sense rules are: 1. Wash hands thoroughly be­ fore eating. 2. Keep flies away from food. 3. Do not swim in polluted waters. 4. Avoid over-tiring. 5. Be guided by your physi­ cian’s advice concerning tonsil and adenoid operations. 6. Avoid sudden chilling, such as plunging into cold water on a very hot day. “June through September,” Dr. Van Riper said, “is the time when infantile paralysis cases are on the increase in the north temperate zone. Consequently they are months in which these precautions should be especially observed.” Last year was the worst polio year in three decades, with more than 25,000 infantile paralysis cases reported. By June 7 this year, Dr. Van Riper said, 1,000 cases had been reported to the U. S. Public Health service. This figure is 192 cases less than the number reported for the comparable period last year, he explained. It is estimated that of infantile paralysis victims in this country 50 per cent recover completely, 25 to 30 per cent show slight residual paralysis, 15 to 20 per cent show marked after-effects and 5 to 10 per cent die. 3 "a v i a t i o n n o t e s Airport Chatter Lorin Duemeland of Bismarck was elected president of the North Dakota Flying Farmers and Ranch­ ers association at concluding ses­ sions of the annual convention.

In the first annual air tour spon­ sored by the aviation committee of the Illinois State Chamber of Com­ merce, 32 planes visited 16 commu­ nities on a 731-mile flight. Most of the 16 communities will vote on establishment of a local airport authority this year, and purpose of the tour was to acquaint citizens with the need for careful and ade­ quate air planning. . . . "It is no more unusual to have a plane than it is to have a car. In fact, this airplane is much less trouble than some of the cars we used to have.” That is the assertion of Harmon Cranz, a pilot-farmer of Ira, a Sum­ mit county, Ohio, village northwest of Akron. Cranz, who uses his plane chiefly for pleasure flights, has converted part of the bam into a hangar. . . .

But he didn’t know Davy Crock­ ett Jr., who has helped save an $80,000 apple crop by “warm­ ing up” the weather with a cou­ ple of personal planes. Taking off from the Hagerstown, Md., airport at 3:30 a. m., Crockett and a fellow pilot flew their Aeroncas to the 70-acre orchard threatened by frost. Cruising back and forth 50 feet above the trees, the two planes raised the temperature two degrees In 10 minutes. The pilots, warm­ ing the air by keeping it circu­ lating, patrolled the area for ZVt hours, after which the danger j of frost was past.• * • Air Museum Providing a comprehensive, per­ manent exhibit of the air weapons used in World ar n, a national air museum will be established in the mall adjacent to Smithsonian insti­ tution in Washington, according to •tentative plans approved at a con­ ference of aviation men and army air forces officers. It is planned that historic aircraft and items of aeronautical equip­ ment, both foreign and domestic, which already have attracted wide­ spread public interest in temporary displays and air shows will be turned over by army air forces to the museum. A total of more than 100 aircraft and several thou­ sand items of aeronautical equip­ ment will be made available to the museum. Airplanes earmarked for the mu­ seum include the Enola Gay, the B-29 which dropped the first atomic bomb; Flak Bait, historic veteran of the European theater, and the Memphis Belle.

Dinner will be served 48 Years Old W ith this issue The Record be­ gins its 49th year. The present editor and owner arrived here from Sevierville, Tenn., 40 years ago this month, and purchased The Record from the late E. H. Morris. During all these 40 years, The Record hasn’t missed an is­ sue, and has never come out a day late. (We are knocking on wood). In spite of sickness, paper short­ age, cold and heat, the paper has always made its appearance on time. During all the years since The Record was founded in 1899, hetween three and four million copies have been printed. These papers have been mailed to every civilized country in the world, and to some countries that were not civilized. When we took charge of The Record 40 years ago, there wasn’t a foot of improved road in Davie County—not a steel or concrete bridge and but few decent school houses. Today we have fine roads, bridges, schools and many fine churches and homes. There wasn’t a dairy form in Davie when we came here, and now the county has about 75 fine dairy farms. Some 35 years ago we carried several delegations o f farmers and cattle men to visit the big Dutch Dairy farms, the Shuford, Robinson and other farms in Catawba County, and got them interested in the dairy business and registered catde. We feel that The Record deserves cre­ dit for the start of the dairy busi­ ness in this county. We have spent 40 years in helping to build a better town and county in which to live, and feel that our efforts have not been in vain. The Record will continue to work for a bigger and better town and county, fighting for what we believe to be to the best interests of the people. We appreciate the cooperation and support of the good people of the county in the past and trust they will continue to stand by us as the years go by. W ithout your patronage we could not keep The Record going. Local VetReenlists InAAF William S.

Davie County farmers read The Re­ cord and trade with merchants who ad­ vertise in its columns It’s been in your Pocket Y ou’ve dropped it in the collection plate on Sunday. You’ve used it to pay the butcher, the grocer, the tax-collector. You’ve used it to swell your savings account, to educate your children, to build your home. For it’s one of the millions of dollars the Southern Railway System spends in the South every year . .. dollars that find their way to you through your banks, your stores, your business, your job. Over half of all the dollars we take in begin their journey to you in the pay envelopes of our 50,000 em­ ployees. Others go direct to the South’s industries and farmers to buy the materials and supplies we use. Some become tax money, helping to foot the bills for schools, highways,airports, fire departments and other governmental services. In many ways over and above providing an efficient, dependable, economical, privately-owned transporta­ tion service, the Southern helps to prime the South’s economic pump and thus puts dollars in your pocket.

Jill M cFarlane, whose father* Richard, disappeared in World W ar I, falls in love with Lieut. Spang Gordon, She Is upset when she discovers her brother, Ricf has fallen In love with Sandra Calvert, a divorcee of Questionable character. Jill is thrown from her horse and hos­ pitalized. During her absence, Richard visits her mother, Julia. He tells her he assumed the nam e of Captain Mackey and Is stationed at the same camp as Ric. His father, John I., who has aided Julia in raising the children, denounces Richard. Julia is horrified at his cal­ lousness and refuses to teU her children the truth. At camp Captain Mackey tells Rlc he \ knew ' his father In France during the first war. CHAPTER XIII He had to take care of her, Ric flecided, she mustn’t be hurt again. After the war when men had ac­ quired equality again he’d look up Lieutenant Colonel Win Calvert and hand him a good jolt in the jaw. In her own room Sandra Calvert shed her girdle with a relieved sigh. She’d done a stupid thing, letting Ricky see her in a morbid mood. Men don’t like too much emotion in women, not unless it was directed at them. And dragging Win in had been the clumsiest move of all. She had so little time. Soon Ricky would be sent off to officer’s school, and she hadn’t money enough to follow him. Win would be slow with her alimony, of course. He was al­ ways slow. It would stop if she married again, of course. But she was not dubious of the future. She was brushing her hair when the knock sounded on the door. Swiftly she shook the bright curls into a cloud around her face, picked up a jacket edged with fluffy white fur, and opened the door. Then she drew back, her face stiff with fury. “What do you want?” she de­ manded angrily. Captain Roger Mackey quirked an eyebrow and smiled at her without mirth. “Very pretty, Sandy. You were expecting somebody else, I infer?” “I was not! Go away before I call the house detective.” “I think I won’t go away,” he answered coolly. “I came to talk to you.” “You’re not going to talk to me.” Her face was livid. Her eyes blazed. “Get out of my door, or I’ll telephone the office.” “I don’t think you’ll do that, Bandy. Stop being dramatic and let me pass—and shut that door.” “I don’t entertain men in my bed­ room, Rod Mackey.” "All right. I’ll wait while you put on a coat or something, and we’ll talk in the little parlor down the hall.” “And be overheard by a lot of soldiers and their dates? No, thank you. I’m not going to talk to you. We haven’t a thing to say to each other. Get out now, will you?” He cocked his head and looked at her insolently. “I have some things to say to you. If you don’t want other people to hear them I suggest that you let me in and close the door.” “If you’re seen coming in here I might be put out of the hotel!” Mackey Pays a Social Call “I think you’re safe. No one saw me come down the hall.” He walked In, shut the door firmly, and she backed away from him and put a big chair between them. “Sit down and relax, Sandy. After all, we’re old friends.” “You were never a friend of mine, Rod Mackey. I came here to get away from everything that I hated. I was unlucky when they sent you to this post. I don’t want to be re­ minded of anything that happened in the islands. Please go away and leave me alone.” “I’m not going to talk about old times,” he said, amiably. “I’m go­ ing to talk about now. About you.” She flared at him. “No wonder they broke you! You are the most impossible, offensive person I ever knew.” His eyebrow flickered' again, the mocking trace of a smile hovered over his dry mouth. “You don’t do that dowager stuff very well, Sandy. Stick to the old army game. Swear if you feel like it. I won’t mind. But I’m going to give you a few orders—now!” “I don’t have to take orders from you. I’m not in your command.” “You’ll take these orders, Sandy Calvert!” He was grim now, his eyes were blue ice. “I want you to let that boy alone.” Her mouth curled scornfully. “Did they assign you to be a nurse to that squadron out there?” “Take it easy, Sandy. You show your age when you blaze ap like that. Very unbecoming, too. I’m not getting out till you promise to send that boy about his business and not see him again.” “What is all this about anyway?” 6he demanded shrilly. “I’ll see Ricky McFarlane whenever I like, and you won’t stop me!’’ He took a cigarette from the pocket of his blouse, lit it elaborate­ ly, dropped the match in the waste­ basket, looked at her levelly through the smoke. “I think I can stop you,” he said, coolly. “Try to do it! It’s none of your affair. Get out of here.” “You’ll let young McFarlane alone, or he’ll be called into my of­ fice for an interview,” he said, icily. “I see.” She waited a little be­ fore she spoke. “Blackmail!” “No blackmail. Just a brief air­ ing of the truth, and you wouldn’t know about truth, would you, Sandy? How old are you now, for instance?” ‘Tm old enough to see through your rotten game! But if you think you’re going to force me to start seeing you—” “You flatter yourself, my dear. I was never in your little red book. I was Win’s friend. I want nothing from you. Lucky for me, for there’s nothing about you that any self - respecting man would want!” Her features contorted, anger, hate and fear driving all the sur­ face prettiness out of her face. Her skin took on a greenish cast, her eyes darkened and receded, behind a curtain of pure rage. I i “Courage is a muscle of the mind.” “Your insults can’t hurt me,” she said. “I don’t expect anything bet­ ter from you. And I’m not afraid of your threats. But this interest in a young private—just a boy at your post, is a trifle amazing. It might be interesting if you’d explain why you’re so concerned about Bichard McFarlane, all of a sudden.” “There’s no special explanation.” He was watching her sharply, her quick shift of attack, which had not put him off guard. “I happened to know that boy’s father in France. I know his family. His father was —my friend. I owe a debt to that family. I can pay it a little by saving that boy from a woman like you!” She sat down in the big chair with a little, pitiful, collapsing movement. She looked small and undefended, she looked naive and helpless. “What’s the matter with me, Rod?” she asked. “Why are you so bitter against me? I’m not bad. I’ve never been bad. I’ve had a lot of heartbreak crowded into a few years. I was young when I married Win Calvert. He knew his way around in that wild set over there in the islands. I didn’t. I had to grope. I made mistakes. I did stupid things. I made Win furious, but I wasn’t bad. Win was bad. He was rotten. You know that. I was only foolish. And then after they sent us home, and I got back into a sane atmosphere again I saw how intolerable it had all been. I saw that I couldn’t take any more and that I needn’t take any more. So I divorced Win, and he didn’t care. I think he was glad. He was glad to be rid of me. Now I’ve met this McFarlane boy, and he’s nice to me, I’m not harming him. There are women who could harm him, but when he’s with me he’s safe from them. You’re threaten­ ing to call him in and teU him things about me. Can’t you see how use­ less that would be?” Sandra Receives A Threat “No, I can’t, Sandy. Not if I told him, for instance, about a certain Mexican divorce case,” he said, coldly, “or about the Martins—he might be interested in hearing about that.” “Could I help it if .a colonel’s wife was a horrible old harpy, so ugly and jealous she made her husband’s life miserable? She named me in that divorce purely out of spite.” “You needn’t begin crying. That won’t work.” “I’m not going to cry. You’d like that, wouldn’t you? You’d like to break me.. And you’re lying about my age, and you know that, foo. I was nineteen when I married Win Calvert.” “How long were you married to that Bordine fellow before you mar­ ried Win? Before you got that Mex­ ican divorce?- Were you a child bride? I think not.” Her eyes flashed viciously. “You cowardly snoop! Go ahead and peddle your tales if you think it will do any good. There are a few things I could tell about you, too.” ‘‘Nothing whatever that isn’t known already,” he said, coolly. "’Nothing that could hurt me in the least, now.” “You teU Ricky McFarlane a lot of tales about me and. see what hap­ pens! He wonlt believe you. He’ll want to fight you, but he can’t be­ cause you’re twice as old as he is and you’ve got bars on your shoulders. He’ll hate you. He hates you already. He told me he hated you.” “All privates hate their officers. It’s the American ih them, the fierce individualism in this coun­ try that makes men fight for equal­ ity, or for superiority. It keeps them trying. It’s what makes this army one that no goose-stepping mob of regimented slaves can lick. Ric McFarlane doesn’t hate me. He’s thinking about the day when I’ll be a captain and he’ll be a major, and I’ll have to salute him. It’s good for them, that feeling.” ‘He hates you,” Sandra persist­ ed. “He won’t believe a word you say.” He lit another cigarette. He was smiling now. He put on his cap, tilting it a little, his eyelids nar­ rowed arrogantly. “Want to gamble on it, Sandy? He may hate me. He may itch to hit me, but he’ll believe me. Men don’t lie to each other, often— not about women. Think it over.” He closed the door without a sound as he went out. Sandra Calvert sprang to her feet, her hands tightened into livid fists. “You—you. . . .” She choked on her fury. Why, when there were hundreds of pests all over the country, had Rod Mackey been sent to Ridley Field? She had chosen the place because it was a small city, not too well known, and the living was cheap. She had followed the air corps because for so long her life had been bound up with it, and when Win left she had stayed because she liked, being with men with wings on their collars. She had seen Mackey around but had kept out of his way. She picked up the telephone, gave a room nuneber, stamping her foot impatiently. Her face was set and bitter, with hard lines around her mouth. But her voice cooed. “Ricky, did I wake you up? Dar­ ling, I’m so sorry! But I have to see you in the morning. Early. Oh, no, much earlier than that. By nine, at least. Ricky, you mustn’t fail me. It’s so terribly impor­tant—to us!” JiU came back to Buzzard’s Hill from the hospital, wearing a black sling and a pathetic face, and lay on a couch on the screened porch all day, indifferent to everything that went on around her. She could not read, she com­ plained, because she couldn’t man­ age a book with one hand. “One-armed men do it," her grandfather told her. He went to town and returned with an elabor­ ate contraption, a sort of book-desk with an elastic band to hold the pages of the book. But when he had arranged her favorite maga­ zine on it and showed her how to turn the pages, Jill smiled at him wanly and pretended to read, but an hour later Julia noted that no page had been turned. A Discussion About Jill “If she’d get a letter from that army feller, she’d have a different face on her,” John I. complained to Julia over his breakfast coffee. “But likely where he is, he can’t even get a chance to sit down, much less write.” “I’m disappointed in Jill,” Julia said. “Didn’t I give my children anything at aU, John I.? Anything but charming manners and aver­ age intelligence and good looks? I had courage. I wanted to give them courage.” “You never gave them courage because you never gave them any­ thing to fight or be afraid of. You did all the fighting yourself. Cour­ age is a muscle in your mind. You’ve got to use it, or it gets flabby on you.” “What can I do with her? I can’t send her back to school. She’s lost interest in other men so parties bore her. She needs something to do when her arm knits, but what?” “Plenty to do right here.” “She isn’t interested. She’d mope over it and carry that reproachful look around the house all the time. It’s because she feels so unsure, so incomplete. If she’d married that young lieutenant—” “My understanding is, he didn’t ask her. Like as not she’ll never see him again, He was so crazy to get into action that he asked for it, she said. That kind don’t stay away from danger. They go look­ ing for it.” “That’s why he didn’t ask her, perhaps. He seemed like a high principled lad. I liked him, but J wish Jill had never met him.” (TO BE CONTINUED) SUNDMJ SCHOOt LCSSON Light on the Problem Of Human Suffering LESSON TEXT FOR JULY 20-Job 1:8; 3:7*10; 19:7-10; 42:1-5; Jam es 5:11.

Council of Religious Edu­ cation; used by permission. B j HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D. Of The Moody Bible Institiitef Chicago. OUM AN suffering—what a prob- A Iem it is to all of us, in greater or smaller measure. From the bro­ ken heart of men and women comes the question “Why?” We cannot always answer, nor do we fully know the meaning and pur­ pose. We must often simply put our­ selves and our loved ones into the hands of God, trusting him to bring us into assurance and victory. There are some things we can know, and they are most helpful. The book of Job reveals much con­ cerning the background of suffering and its uses and advantages. It is not all loss and pain. God does not forget his people in their hour of trial. Job had suffered the loss of prop­ erty, family, and was now person­ ally afflicted by sickness of his body. His friends who came to com­ fort him had added to his troubles by their pious platitudes about suf­ fering being the result of sin (cf, John 9:3), and so on. There was enough truth in what they said to make it hurt, and so we are doubly glad we are given a look behind the scenes. We learn that this was not a struggle between God and Job, nor even between Satan and Job. We see I. The Battle Between God and Satan (Job 1:8). READ the entire story here and you will see that Satan, when faced by God with the godly ex­ ample of Job’s life, threw down a challenge. He declared that the only reason Job loved God was because he received so much good out of it, because God protected him. The lssne was clearly drawn; the question was whether God was able to keep a man In the midst of trial and suffering. Was His grace sufficient for the dark hours of life as well as the happy and bright ones? Having stripped Job of all his pos­ sessions, and left him childless and. heart broken, Satan had to admit failure up to that point. But he sneeringly slandered both Job and God by saying that Job was not con­ cerned about these other things so long as his own body was unharmed (2:4, 5). So the Lord permitted him to afflict Job’s body, and we see the conflict raging in II. The Battleground—the Life of Job (2:7-10; 19:7-10). 'T 'H E mystery of God’s permis- 1 sive will enters into the pic­ ture here, and we learn too that Satan, while a mighty being, has limits to his power. God may give him liberty to test his people, but it is never with the thought that they will fall; rather to prove that they can stand true come what may. Was any mortal ever more af­ flicted than Job? We find him finally an outcast, sitting on an ash heap, scraping the awful sores upon his poor body. Job did have his times of ques­ tioning and doubt (19:7-10). He felt at times that God had forsaken him. He misunderstood the providences of God. But through it all he held on to his faith in God. He could do without his possessions (1:21). God could even take his life and he would say, “Though he slay me, yet will I trust him.” He saw beyond the grave, for he knew that if his body were destroyed he would still see his Redeemer. What more sublime expression of faith could a man make than to say in his hour of seeming despair, “I know that my Redeemer liveth.” How did it all come out in the end? That is our last point. In. The Outcome—Victory for God in Job (42:1-5; James 5:11). JOB had to come to the ehd of himself. Judging himself to be unworthy (42:6), he repented of all his own self-righteousness and cast himself upon the mercy of God. God then vindicated him and restored him to a place of blessing and use­ fulness. The answer then te our problem is this—God is able to keep to the uttermost those who put their trust in him (Heb. 7:25) through the grace he gives,. Suffering may be in his permissive will for our own self-judgment and growth in grace. Bnt back of it all is the assurance that God knows about it, he has not turned away; that in due season, if we faint not, we shall see victory. Ultimately, the question is not whether we can stand or not, but whether God is able to keep us in the midst of the onslaught of the world, the flesh and the devil.

America’s biggest public relatior- assignment, perhaps the most sir- nificant of this kind in the histor.,’ of the world, is gaining momentum. It’s off to a good start. You ma.' call it industrial statesmanship, ii you want to, or you may call it see­ ing the American way of life. Whrl it amounts to is an all-out effort rn the part of each one of us 1c demonstrate the faith we have i;i our economic system.' So doing, we shall weather any present or future crisis. There must be no tongue-in-chee’: when we assert that never has any other system given a people sc much; nor has any other system a brighter future. We Americans arc not generally an emotional people. We can read history without weep­ ing. Europeans think of us as more “practical” and less idealistic. A; any rate, we have been so busy ths! we have largely overlooked our sell­ ing job, until time is later than w? thought. Selling Ourselves An industrialist recently indulge ' in a bit of analysis; “The simple fat: that our American-styIe processes r t finance, production, distribution ami selling actually produce more for more people than does any other sei of processes ever devised by man. has never been planted deeply in the minds of our people—at least not to the extent that it becomes an ever present and active part of the pub­ lic consciousness.” I am afraid this is too true. Ii we had actually sold ourselves on America through the years, we would never have seen the phenome­ non of certain of our public figures playing peek-a-boo with the Commu­ nists. There would be genuine appreciation of the accomplish­ ments and potentialities of Amer­ ica in every university chair in. the land. Campaign of Truth Against so many rampant, fanat­ ical destroyers, a clean and con­ stant campaign of -truth, well or- -v ganized and ..supported, can be ef- A fective. Against the doubters and yV,the .cynics, this great public relo .Iiions program must be tied-in wi' ' all-out effort to produce goods for the' American people, through an economy of abundance. Without good works, your theory falls flat. Only first understand the system if you please, then it’s easier, to make it work. Too many somehow have decided that business, in this “capitalistic” country, ds altogether bad. These folks have not considered, however how many cherished things tbev would have to give up if they got rid of "capitalism.” Without pri­ vate initiative in business and in­ dustry, in labor, and in professional life, we would sink to the level of some of our critics. We take a lot of things for grant­ ed. Yet we have a job to do. If we are businessmen, let us not only sell the product we make, but let us sell the product as a symbol of the freedom under which it is made. Ii we are workmen, let us consider our jobs as by-products of the free­ dom under which we live. And no matter what we are, let us know that this sweet land of liberty offers us a freedom of opportunity as in-i dividuals that we can find nowhere else on this planet. / Uncle Sam Says '—*■ / y y ,,"",r •.* M Vl ASO TOU W ill HAVt •:> * M lIttH MIO Ttfifil #' I 071 #I W J I ¥9 431.49 U l 954.11 /IT.II ISO 640.47 I.440.M iJ t t.00440 9,163.41 TM 9.004.09 4,339.09 1150 »41.93 7417.90 ts.oo 4,010.67 1.660.49 IIJS 3J524J4 10,131,74 ----------------------------------------------1 My nieces and nephews know fhalfigures tell the truth when the fig ures deal with the results of sys­tematic savings through the Payrol Savings Plan.

In a moment of careless relaxation the driver swung his eyes from the road. In that same iroment a ball bounced into the street — after it ran a little child. It was only a brief moment, but long enough for a lifetime of regret Last year more than 3,500 American children under the age of 14 were killed by automobiles, 160,000 were injured. This State, in some degree, contributed to that toll. With school days here again, child casualties will rise unless every individual driver makes it his self-appcinted responsibility to safeguard these young lives from harm. When driving through school zones—and streets where children are at play—use extreme caution. Always be ready for split-second action, even though moving at moderate speed. Anticipate the un­ expected. There's no indemnity that can restore a human life. If, because of one careless act of yours, a child died or its young body were maimed—could you ever forget? fS This advertisement is presented in the public interest by the President's Highway Safety Conference and the daily and weekly newspapers of the nation through their Press' m d Publisher Associations.

Any mistakes that may occur in this issue, should be charged to the two office devils, as the editor is away on his blackberry vaca­ tion.

Green, who is summering at Walkerville, OnL, Canada, sent us last week a sample of the most famous article manufactured in his old home town. Up to this hour we . have not sampled it, but some of our leadjng citizens whom Mr. Green remembered, vouch for its good ness. The surprise was so great that we haven’t fully recovered from the shock. The marriage of Mr. Jas. Ward and Miss Nan Smith, of Farming­ ton, at the Methodist parsonage last week, was a surprise to their friends, They are on a honey­ moon trip to Norfolk. Rev. Walter E. Inenhonr. Hiddenite. N. C. In reproaching anyone for his sin we should use precaution. It should never be done in a sneerinff manner, nor in an angrv spirit, lest we do more harm than good. It should be done in love and kind­ ness, even though it requires firm­ ness. When we do anything in the right way and manner, which sbonid be through the spirit of tenderness and Chrlstlikenass, we may be assured shat God will bring out of it. A kind and loving reproach, or rebuke, is entirely different to one of harshness The spirit in which we say a thing may mean more than what we say. If we reproach a man for cursing, or drinking, or for bad conduct, or for something else that is bad, we should do it for bis Sood, and for the good of oth­ ers, and not to give vent to our temper. It requires calmness and good self-control on our part when we reproach any. ne who lacks self control. We may not always re- ceive a kind reply from the one wqom we reproach, but he will realize that we are right, to say the least of it, and this may take effect upon him later on, As be has time to meditate nnd study he may come to us and ask for par don, OJ confess that we are right and that he is wrong People in sin and wiceedness of­ tentimes say and do things they afterwards are sorry of when we approach them in the right manner and spirit, and when we reproach them accordingly, It is always a good pl-n to breathe a prayer be­ fore we give a reproach, or a re buke, to anyone. In doing this the Hal'- Spirit can take the re proach and bring good out of it, Otherwise, if we reproach anyone tor bis sins, wickedness, misdeeds, misconduct, carelessness, thought Iessness and recklessness, it may do more barm than good. He may take offense at it and even do worse. However, if a reproach is rendered in Christian love and gracs it can and should have its desired effect. At least we clear onr own soul aud leave the result with God. More often a sinner needs advice prayer, precaution, and a spirit of iove and grace toward him rather than a reproach and rebuke. How­ ever, a reproach under certain con. iitions, and tor certain reasons may be well in plabe, but it must be in the right spirit and manner. More Wet Democrats The Moore county people tbonght that they were about to get a vote on liqnor stores. Now it turns out that the Iegis- ture made their bill to read that they have to vote against the re­ gistration, that is to eay: all those stay at home and fail to vote would be counted in favor of liauor stores. The dry forces in Moore have de elded that they will not fall for and will not ask for an election under such unfair legislation—they hove decided to fight it out in the next primary —r Tomorrow. More Money During lune, 509 persons were convicted of drunken driving in North Carolina, a 29 per cent in­ crease over the 394. convictions re­ corded in June, 1946, Motor Ve­ hicles Commissioner Landon Ros ser reported yesterday. The June convictions brought to 4,398 the number of persons who have lost tbeir driving permits since last January 1 because of drunken driving. Union Rules (Durbam Sun) Do. the unions, or any of their members, want to know what makes people “ mad,” what makes business mad,” what makes Cou gress mad? The case of the railway operat. ing brotherhoods is one point. The five unions are the engineers, fire, men, conductors, trainmen and switchmen. They are not asking wage in* creases, per se. They are asking rule changes, but some of those de­ mands would “pyramid increase on increase for cortain employees” and the bundle of demands, the railroads coutend, “ constitute the biggest feather-bed threat that ever menaced private industry.” What is featherbedding, about which we hear so much? It is un­ ion action compelling, undet pain of strikes, employers to hire men for jobs when there aren’t any jobs. It is the cutting of one job. into two and compelling employers to hire two men to do what one man has been doing quite easily and well before. An example from the current railroad union demands. A requirement that freight trains be limited to 70 cars, passenger trains to 14 cars. Another: A requirement that additional train engine crews be carried on Diesel-powered trains — one fuli crew for every power unit in the locomotive. A freight train haul­ ed by a four-unit Diesel, a com. mon practice on many railroads, would have to carry four engineers, four firemen, fout conductors and at least eight brakemen, or a total of 20 men instead of five. Of course in the long run, the public pays for such stuff as that—in the railroad field, in the building industry, any where else. Things like that don't make sense, In any but the few excep­ tional instances, to anybody. And that’s one of the things that makes everybody “mad” at unions. Dime Begging “ Mister, can you spare a dime?’ Maybe you can but before passing it over ask to see the beggar’s li­ cense. Some people make a living by begging rather than take up a trade that will pay them a living, wage, and it <s those people to­ ward whom North Carolina’s new solicitation’s license law is aimed. During the last few months a survey of individuals soliciting alms for a livalibood has been conduct­ ed in the major cities of North Ca rolina by a state committee in co­ operation with county committees set up to study the situation.

DAVlE BRICK COMPANY DEALERS IN GOOD COAL Day Pbone 194 - Night Fhone 119 Mocksville, N. C. - Ingratitude The London Daily Mirror, com menting editorially on the effect of the relaxation of controls In Ameri ca aud the terms of the Anglo- American loan, asserts that “ when the United States of America took off coutrols in her own country she transferred a few of them to us,” and calls on Britian to “ get tough” with America. “This unusual and unpleasant process,’ says the Mirror, “ was made possible by the financial stranglehold put on us when we ac­ cepter' the American loan It is a- bout time that the government got a little tough with America—iu- deed we should say, very tough— and made our real feelings known. W ehavehad a shabby deal. As soon as we starred to get dollars, America took off price controls, and this reduced the vaiue of the loan at least one-third. When is our government going to move in the matter? Or are they determin ed to take everything lying down? That may be shrugged off as the irresponsible expression of an extremist newspaper. We have our share of this kind of journal­ ism in the United States But it seems with the Marshall plan hang­ ing fire, which would, if approved bv the elected representatives of the American people, pour another 23 billion dollars into the lap of bank­ rupt European, even the most ra­ dical publication would hold its tongue about “the real feeliugs” of Britons towards America Anyhow, it's well to know wbat the “real feelings" of some B rirish- ers are, for while the Mirror’s out burst cannot be accepted as rep e- senting majority opinion iu the is­ lands, it reflects those of the paper’s own clientele. Such manifestations of Ingratitude are not calculated to make American taxpeyers feel kindlv disposed towards any plan to lift Europe out of its economic mire.—Statesville Daily. Both Must Take The Blame Who is responsible for the pass­ age of the Taft-Hartley bill? Ask a Democratic politician that question and his answer will be; “ Why, the Repjblicans of course. It’s as plain as the nose on your face.” And then, in order to emprasize his point, be will carry your at­ tention to the fact that Republi cans control both the Senate and House so far as voting strength is concerned. “ Not only that,” be will add, “but President Truman, onr great Democratic leader, vetoed the measure.” AU of which is true But this fact also should be kept in mind: the Republicans in Con­ gress never could have over-ridden the President's veto unless they had been given substantial help by the Democrats in both the Senate and the House. And as for the President’s veto —that wus done for political pur­ poses aloue, because Mr, Truman was well aware of the fact that his veto wonld be over-riJden Regardless of bow the Taft Hartly bill works out, Republicans and Democrats are equally respon­ sible for the measure, so there's not much use in trying to make political out of it.—The State. Administrator's Notice Having qualified as administratix of the estate of Mrs SalIie Jarvis, deceased, notice is hereby given to all persons bold ing claims against the said estate to pre­sent the same, properly verified, to the undersigned at Advance, N. C.. on or be­ fore May 15th 1948, or this notice will be plead in bar of recovery. AU persons in debted to said estate, will please make prompt settlement. This 15th day of May 1947.MRS. FRANK VOGLER, Admrx. of Mrs. Sallie Jarvis. A, T. GRANT, Atty. Enlist In Army “The United States Armw Re­ cruiting Service in North and S. Carolina enjoyed its most success­ ful month of the year in June, when 836 young men joined the regular Army rrom the two st~tes,” said Capt. W. E Cooper, Com­ manding OflScer of the Winston- Salem Sub Station iu the announce­ ment today, Seven hundred. and eighty.four enlisted through the Recrniting Stations and sub-stations, and the remaining 72 men enlisted at camps, posts and stations. The local sub­ station accounted for 22 eulist- mentt during the month. Credit for the rise in number of men joining the Army is given to the fact that most high schools graduated iheir senior classes dur­ ing June, and many of the seniors iramediateiy joined the Army to take advantage of the excellent ed­ ucation to be obtained in Armv schools and under the G. I. Bill of Rights. Capt Cooper said it is expected that many more of this year’s high school graduates will enter the Army after taking a vacatioa. The Army is especially anxious to ob lain the cream of the crop in order to insure tho maintaining of an In telligent and alert defence force, and Is offering many inducements to the young men who select the Army as a career. A recruiting Sergeant will be in Mocksville each Tuesday to inter view applicants for enlistment. History Proves It Editor Record;—Permit this bit of comment on the talk of interest of the day, yes of years. Two years ago one would have thought that bv now we wonld have some­ thing that looked like U N. O. If not work, such a thing did not. will not, cannot exist. Rome was divided. First and best reason is that God said so, and no sort or set of men have been able to over ride that veto. See Dan. 2:43 44 and 7:27. Many have tried it and failed—Hitler, Napoleon and many others just as important as tiey. The divided States stands. History proves it. The next world power will be a perfect one. AU of the elements of peace will be present, not so now. not so now, not even in this our good neighbor country, where we farm the markets for gain, even the waste of pigs and potatoes, where a lot of folks would not en- jov heaven if there was a German, Tap or Negro present. If commu­ nism is good, and we think a little of it is, such as sugar rationing, why should the kettle call the pot black. Great men like Truman and Wallace differ. No, one good neighbor should not help one a- gainst another. That is just It we did that for Tapan we repead what we sowed and the harvest is not all over. Selfishness is the big sin for all, great and small. It will be so till the time of the gentiles he fulfilled. See Luke 21:24. It may be soon. Greed for the oil back of Palestine will help the gathering to Armegeddont Ifhalf the people of onr beloved land would do as they wish to be done by, it would make a lot of differ­ ence, and we could see as well as hear. Our hope is as individuals not as nations Surely we should take heed. Just how long proba­ tion will last no one knows. The floods come suddenly. Jesus said it would be so when,He should come. Just what is going on in Greece? We, the people, know but little. Be warned, be ready. Mercv still lingers. J. P- BURTON. Hickory, N. C., R. 1. Do You Read The Record?

Canning Queries Pressure cookers and other can­ ning equipment will be working overtime to take care of garden produce this year, and those of you who have canned foods undoubted­ ly know that it’s a big task, but not a thankless one when it comes to next winter’s eating. There’s no other food task so gratifying as canning, for once you — are finished, you have loaded shelves to look at. In order to avoid canning mistakes and fail­ ures, check over these points. First, garden-fresh, sound ripe vegetables are the only kind worth canning. Unsound produce does not improve during the canning proc­ ess, and it’s a waste of time, money and food to put stale vegetables into jars. Select all vegetables as carefully for canning as you would for your most finicky guest, and you’ll be a long way toward success. Tender peas, small beets, plump, shiny corn, crisp and meaty beans, etc. all will give satisfactory results be­ cause they are prime produce to begin with. Every vegetable should be washed thoroughly before the skin is cut or broken. Why? Because some of them have dirt and fuzz that is difficult to remove once it becomes mixed with the juicy con­ tent. Pre-ccoking and hot packing gives best results, as this method shrinks the vegetables and gives a better looking pack as well as less shrink­ age in the jar. Use Pressure Cooker Some women can can consistently and successfully by processing veg­ etables in a hot water bath. Either they are very careful workers or just plain lucky. However, fool­ proof results are best obtained by using a steam pressure cooker. It is possible to bring food to a higher temperature in this way and kill harmful bacteria, thus avoiding spoilage. Canning also may be done in much less time with a' pressure cooker, and there is less opportu­ nity to lose food values in this way. Fortunately, the equipment is now available, or in many communi­ ties it is obtainable on a communal basis at a canning center or such. Boil Before Serving One of the basic rules for home- canned vegetables is to boil the canned vegeta- 'ble 10 to 15 min­ utes before tast­ ing or using. Never taste a vegetable which you may suspect is spoiled. If you are certain of spoilage, discard it; if not sure, then taste. This boiling is best done in an open saucepan. The rule applies to all vegetables except tomatoes and red pimientoes, which are acid veg­ etables and hence in a somewhat LYNN SAYS: Glamorize Foods Before Serving For both fruit and vegetable sal­ ads you may use the prongs of the fork for fluting such things as cu­ cumbers and bananas. Use vegetables prepared in molds to make vegetable platters more at­ tractive. Carrots, peas and spin­ ach are nice to look at when served in a ring mold. Use a contrasting colored vegetable in the center of the mold. cook it first and LYNN CHAMBERS’ MENU Braised Lamb Steaks Parsleyed Potatoes Green Beans Carrot-Raisin, Slaw Biscuits and Honey Fresh Cherry Pie Beverage Wa different class from non-acid vege­ tables such as peas, beans, corn, etc. Some questions always come up concerning particular vegetables during • canning time. Typical queries are these, and here are the answers: What causes cloudiness in canned peas? This may be caused by in­ sufficient cooking or some mineral in the water used for canning. Prop­ er pre-cooking or soft, distilled wa­ter eliminates the cloudiness. How high shall I pack vegetables? Pack them to within % inch of the top of the jar, except peas, lima beans and corn, which are packed to within one inch of the top to allow for extra expansion. What causes corn to turn brown in the can? Most often this is due to a high tempera­ ture used during canning, which carmelizes the corn. Sometimes a high deposit of mineral such as iron in water used for canning will cause it. Why do beets turn white? This may be due to certain varieties or to too old beets. Use the very dark red kind, and see that they are young and freshly gathered. Why do vegetables fall apart when home canned? This is due to overprocessing or overcooking in pressure cooker or water bath. Watch the time and check with timetable to avoid this error. Shall I overprocess or underproc­ ess? Neither is good, but under- processing probably will result in spoilage while overcooking will give you wilted looking goods that do not hold their shape. How much shall I can at one time? Unless you have help for preparing the vegetables, it is best to do it in several small batches so vegetables do not spoil. If you can get the produce from garden to kettle—or jar—within two hours you are' working according to the best rule. Much depends upon your own speed and ability. How much salt should be used? Season according to taste or not at all. Most people are satisfied if one teaspoon of salt to each quart of vegetable is added as a last meas­ ure to the jar before it is closed. Should jar tops be wiped before cover is placed on jar? Yes, this is essential to remove any bits of vegetable, water or salt which might prevent a perfect meal. What kind of covers should I use? There are a number of good vari­ eties available, and each should ba used according to the manufactur­er’s directions. Released by Western Newspaper Union. Ring black or green olives around the sides of a meat salad bowl to make it look attractive. Never overcook food if you want it to look nice on the platter. Have it crisp looking even if cooked. If vegetables lack appeal for the children, invest in a set of fancy vegetable cutters and use these for a change to add interest. Use your gayest mats or linens when serving out on the porch or lawn. Pottery and heavy goblets are ideal for service here.

O nly F irestone C ham pion Ground Grips are made with con­ nected curved traction bars. The curves .. . and the connections . . . give the bars far greater strength than those on any other tractor tires. They eliminate the excessive bending and wiping and rapid tread wear of broken center tires. The curved bars cut into the soil with a sharp, plowlike action. Mud and trash fall freely from tapered openings between these powerful traction bars. The continuous con­ tact of the connected curved bats w ith the highw ay insures a smoother ride. Like Champion Farmer Renk... and other cost-conscious farmers ... you will get more pulling power and longer life if you specify Firestone Champion Ground Grips for your new tractor . . . or buy Champions for your present tractors. listen to the Voice of firestoneevery Monday evening over NBC CoPKl^Iit 1017.

Hilltop Barbecue The editor visited the Hilltop Barbecue and Service Station, just outside the city limits on the Winston-Salem highway one after­ noon last week. This is one of the most attractive places of its kind in this entire section. The building is modem and up-to-date in every way, and has a large base­ ment and one of the most modem barbecue pits that we have seen. The ground floor contains a mo- dem kitchen, with gas stoves, re- figeration, etc., a large lunch room and an attractive dining room, where meals are served day and night. In addition to this service, all kinds of cold drinks, ice cream, candies, tobaccos, cigarettes are carried. The service station handles the I well-known Mobil gas and oils, and prompt service is given the traveling public. The scenery from this spot is very pretty. The building is owned by Tommie S. Hendrix, of Smith Grove. Mr. and Mrs. C. V. Miller and son “Buck,” own and operate the cafe .nd service station. When you are hungry or thirsty, or when vour car needs good gas or oil, stop at Hilltop. __ CE.

John Williams, 76 year old Da­ vie County farmer, described by neighbors as being “jealous natur- ed,” killed his 45-year-old wife last Tuesday morning shortly after 8 o’clock, with a close-range blast from a double-barreled shotgun- and a few minutes later shot off the top of his own head with the same gun. Sheriff Paul Foster said neigh­ bors told him Mr. Williams and his wife, Molly, of near Smith Grove, married only about four months, had been having argu-', ments which grew out of what * SheriffForter described as “ap­ parently unfounded” jealousy on the part of Mr. Williams. Dr. Garland V. Greene, County Coroner, pronounced It a clear | case of murder and suicide, and no inquest was deemed necessary.: Mr. Williams had been married once before, and Mrs. Williams had been married three times. They were living in a house oc­ cupied by Mrs. Bill Jarvis and re­ latives. Neighbors said that Mr. and Mrs. Williams had a family quarrel the day before the tragedy. About 8 o’clock Tuesday, accord­ ing to officers, Mrs. Williams was’ sweeping the back part of her' home. She opened a door to a small porch and was still sweep­ ing when a blast from the 12- guage gun tore the right side of her head off. Later, a second shot left Mr. Williams dead on the ground with the rop of his head blown off. Funeral and burial services were held for Mr. and Mrs. Williams at Bethlehem Methodist Church Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock, with Revs. J. S. Folger and J. W. Vestal officiating, and the bodies laid to rest in the church ceme­ tery. Mr. Williams is survived by two sons and four daughters, all of Davie County, children of a former marriage. Mrs. Williams was a native of Wilkes County, but had lived in Davie for the past ten years. Surviving her are oue daughter and three sons by a former marriage. PEACHES!PEACHES!

DRYDEN Not only as a m eans of saving on the cost of litter material as wen as on labor, but also as a coccidlo- sis control m easure, authorities now recom m end that litter be left in the brooder and laying house for a year or m ore. When the litter is treated with hydrated lim e little danger from disease will result. By using the built-up litter m ethod, the poultry house receives additional insulation, resulting in drier 'fitter and m ore uniform tem perature. Extensive tests a t Ohio and Washington State colleges have proven the value of I L \ I v $ Healtby poultry can be kept on litter left in houses for a year or m ore. this system of litter m anagem ent. When the built-up method is em­ ployed, the litter is first put ’in- at two to three inches deep, to which jne pound of hydrated lime is added to each five square feet of floor space. When the litter begins to pack, another layer of litter as well As application of lim e is added. This m ay be repeated as needed. When the litter is stirred with a fork and sticks together in clumps, or if the hens can’t move it when scratching, m ore lim e should be Udded. Less liming will be needed if feed hoppers and other equipment is moved occasionally. When deep litter is used, a great- am ount of lim e m ay be advisa­ ble. This system , in fact no sys­ tem , will be satisfactory in damp w eather, unless the house is well Wiilt and land well drained. ‘Green Manure Crops “ Green m anure” is vital to soil rebuilding and higher crop yields that come from a crop of legumes, as shown by accompanying chart. To com pare the organic m atter and nitrogen various legum es pro­ duce through their tops and roots, tests were m ade at Joliet soil ex­ perim ent field. Plots of white blos­ som sweet clover, alfalfa and red clover were seeded in oats May I. Sam ples of tops and roots were col­ lected Novem ber I. Results showed that white blossom sw eet clover pro­ duced considerably m ore organic m atter and nitrogen in the fall of the first year than the other leg­ um es.

This greater fall growth the first year is due to the fact that sweet clover does not bloom, but continues growth until freezing w eather. Alfalfa and red clover frequently will bloom in the fall of the first year. Vegetative growth stops with the blooming. Practical Control o! Brucellosis in Swine The following program for control oi brucellosis in swine should prove effective. Blood test breeding stock, segregation of infected breeding stock, blood test the prospective gilts and boars frequently and up to and during the first pregnancy, remov­ ing reactors and breed only nega­ tive gilts to clean boars. Ammate or 2,4-D Will Knock Out Poison Ivy Poison ivy now can be killed with either of the two new chemicals, am m ate or 2,4-D. If am m ate is used as a spray, dissolve it in w ater at the rate of one pound to the gal­ lon . Spray when the ivy is in full leaf so that the largest possible am ount of surface will be covered, but spray on a cool, cloudy day when there is little chance of rain for 10 hours. Cover plants well so that they are soaked. Presidential Veto Poses Problems Roosevelt Said, ‘I Forbid’ 631 Times for New Record B y B A U K H A G ENewt Analyst and Commentator. WASHINGTON.—“I forbid!” said President Truman. He said it 74,times to the 79th congress while Democrats were still in control. Kie score for the Republican-controlled 80th is not quite complete at this writing. Every Am erican president is perm itted to say he forbids, but he has to say it in Latin. The word is ‘‘veto." Of course the congress can say “So what?” right back, as they did so emphatically this session in the case of the Tsit-H artley labor act, but they have to say it two-thirds strong, a strength they aren’t always able to m uster,A s history has shown. Why the founding fathers w ere so & generous with presidential power, which they never conceived as ex­ panding to its m odem breadth, we don’t quite know. The veto is w rit­ ten down in Rom an law, but Latin is a dead language. In England, the crown has a veto power over parliam ent, but it is alm ost as_dead as Queen Anne, since it hasn’t been used since her tim e. It seem s to have flourished on Am erican soil. In fact— “We ought to call it National Veto Week,” House M ajority Leader Halleck is report­ ed to have re­ m arked when the third presidential veto in one week of June bounced back into the lap of the 80th con­ g re s s . O th e rs studying head­ lines "President Nixes Tax Cut,” “Truman Vetoes Labor Legisla­ tion,” “Wool Bill T u rn e d Down,” shook their heads and opined that H arry S. Trum an w as the veto- ingest president yet. Nonsense, said capitol old-timers. H arry Trum an, according to the record, has been very sparing of his veto, and has a long way to go before he attains the really big-time veto statistics racked up by Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt (who had m ore tim e than anybody else to ex­ ercise his thumbs-down power), Grover Cleveland (the veto runner- up), and Ulysses S. Grant. “Why,” the old-timers grant, “when FDB was president, it seem ed as if we had a veto on something or other alm ost ev­ ery day.” And the record shows that he said, “I forbid,” or achieved the sam e end by the pocket method in 631 instances. (A “pocket veto” com es about in this way: The president has 10 Baakhage days, not including Sundays, to act on any bill. Congress sends a bill to him. If congress adjourns be­ fore the president’s allotted 10 days are up and he still hasn’t acted on the bill, it cannot become a law. That is considered a “pocket veto.” ) Cleveland, during his two term s in office, used his veto power 5'84 tim es, and was overridden only twice. The m ajority of the Cleve­ land vetoes were personal pension bills, m any based on utterly ab­ surd claim s growing out tif the Civil war. At first, Cleveland’s forthright refusal to perm it these m yriad, Iili- putian treasury raids infuriated Civ­ il w ar veterans. L ater, however, the GAR cam e to consider him its friend. Ulysses S. G rant, a poor third to Roosevelt and Cleveland, ve­ toed 92 bills, was overridden four tim es. All told, the veto power has been used m ore than 1,833 tim es by pres­ idents. George Washington started it off by killing two im portant acts— one having to do with legislative or­ ganization; another which would have reduced the size of the arm y. He was not overridden. There were eight other presidents who never experienced a veto upset by con­ gressional action—Madison, Mon­ roe, Jackson, Polk, Buchanan, Lin­ coln, McKinley and Harding. On the other hand, there were several presidents who scorned the veto entirely: John Adams, Jeffer­ son, John Quincy Adams, Van Bu- ren, William Henry Harrison, Tay­ lor, Fillm ore and Garfield. Perhaps because all was harmonious be­ tween executive and legislators in those days. Perhaps because, as some students suggest today, a sus­ tained veto is a contradiction of the principle of m ajority rule—a rule of a m inority of one-third of either house plus one, plus the pres­ ident who is not supposed to have a vote. (It takes a two-thirds vote to kill a veto.) Historic Trees Threatened For years now I have walked back and forth to m y labors under a Gothic roof of green, form ed by the interlacing elm branches which, since Civil w ar days, have m ade m y street one of the world’s m ost beautiful avenues. Today there are some rude gaps in the raftered ceil­ ing where huge branches have been ripped away by the wind and storm . But now there is a threat of greater devastation for our and other elm trees, ancient and historical, or m erely beautiful, for the dreaded dutch elm disease has descended upon America—two cases of viru­ lent infection have been discovered within the D istrict of Columbia alone, and no cure is known. My generation found nothing exotic In the idea of the village sm ithy .under the spreading , chestnut tree. Today the sm ith woald have a tough job finding a chestnut tree under which to baild his sm ithy, even if yoa coaid find the sm ith. For, thanks to the infamous chestnut blight, a horsechestnut tree in this country is now alm ost as rare as a horse. M ust the elm s go that way? I talked this question over with a m em ber of the American For­ estry Products Industries, Inc. (a private industrial association). He said: “A recent house action re­ duced the federal appropriation for the control and research of the Eu­ ropean beetle and dutch elm dis­ ease to $51,000. If the cut is ap­ proved by the senate, it m eans the end of the dutch elm disease lab­ oratory in M orristown, N. J., where the departm ent of agriculture’s bu­ reau of entomology and plant quar­ antine has conducted extensive re­ search into the control and possible prevention of the insect and fungus. An elm , according S official classification, is a “prized shade tree in Uie northeastern and central United States.” But passing over its esthetic value, consider that its “wood is used for variety of pur- poses^-especially slack cooperage, m arket and bushel baskets, for heavy crating and for veneers.. . . ” But w hat does an economaniac care for all that? Consider the White House grounds, for instance, In these quiet 18 acres there are something less than 350 trees comprising some 90 species. The two great magnolias planted close to the rear portico were placed there by Andrew Jack­ son. Nearly every president plant­ ed a tree—there is the Benjamin Harrison oak, the Harding beech, the Coolidge birch, several species set out under Hoover. Maples predom inate, but the elms are next, and m any have historic m em ories. Just southeast of the south portico is an elm said to have been planted by John Quincy Adams. There are others planted by Lincoln and McKinley. - Under these trees history lives, but for beauty nothing surpasses the high arched clois­ ter, thick-tapestried in sum m er, stark bnt graceful Ur silhouetted line in winter, which roofs my avenue. A wilting and partly defoliated 30-foot American elm severely af­ fected with dutch elm disease. F IR E ’S TRAGIC AFTERMATH . . .

H artley (Rep., N. J.), co-author of the Taft-Hartley la­ bor act, has charged big business and big labor with betraying the public in negotiating the latest John L. Lewis coal mining contract. H artley’s attack followed shortly after southern coal operators fol­ lowed northern and m idwester’n op­ erators in signing soft coal con­ tracts with the 400,000-member Unit­ ed Mine W orkers. He told the house that “ at least one clear violation of the law” was contained in the contracts, referring to the section providing for a “checkoff” from the m iners’ wages. The Taft-Hartley law, he said, perm its a checkoff only for union dues, but the contract calls for a checkoff of initiation fees and union assessm ents. H artley added th'at other sections of the contract "vio­ late the spirit and intent of the law.” Noting that the contract afforded a “prim e case history of the evils of industry-wide bargaining,” he said that there was evidence of “collusion between tfie m ine opera­ tors and the UMW with the inten­ tion of violating the law ." R.S.V.P.: Paris Parley ' Pro-Communist Hungary turned down its invitation to attend the P aris conference on European re­ construction as 17 other nations lined up to participate in the talks, first step in carrying out the M ar­ shall plan for aiding prostrate Europe. y The conference, previously boy­ cotted by Russia on the grounds that the M arshall plan wifi be a foothold for American intervention in the internal affairs of Europe, will attem pt to set up a scheme whereby Europe, with the aid ,of American dollar credits and sup­ plies, will be able to lift itself from its economic m orass by its boot­ straps. In addition to Hungary, four other Communist-inspired governments— those of Poland, Yugoslavia, Ro­ m ania and Bulgaria—also refused the invitations sent out by G reat Britain and France. As the dead­ line for replies approached, Finland and Albania had not yet been heard from. FARMERS PROSPER NAVY RESIGNATIONS GROW Higher pay and a more satisfac­ tory home life are the two m ain lures which have drawn the most bright and capable young career officers from the navy and arm y into civilian jobs at what is called “ an alarm ing rate” during the past year. In the last 10 months m ore than 1,700 naval officers havj resigned commissions won at Annapolis to take higher paying civilian jobs. During the sam e period, the arm y lost only 259 West Point officers via the resignation route, but they are men whom the service can ill afford to spare. Both farm assets and farm in­ come have expanded tremendously since the outbreak of World W ar II, according to a late report released by the National Industrial Confer­ ence board. Total assets increased about 90 per cent from 53.7 billion dollars at the beginning of 1940 to 10J.5 billion dollars six years later. Gross income from agriculture shot up 124 per cent over the sam e period. That income, plus government paym ents, totalled about 11 billion dollars in 1940 and only a little less than 25 billion dollars in 1945. Virtu­ ally all the gain was registered by income from agriculture. Gov­ ernm ent p a y m e n t s were not changed during the years covered by the report. Cash receipts from farm m arketings rose from 8.3 bil­ lion dollars in 1940 to a .very con­ siderable 20.8 billion in 1945. Real estate was by far the largest item among farm assets, rising from 33.6 billion dollars in 1940 to 56.0 billion in 1946. ROMANCE: Royal Road Princess Elizabeth, 21-year-old heiress presum ptive to the throne of England, and Lt. Philip Mount- batten, 26, form er Prince Philip of Greece, are formally, engaged to be m arried this autum n, probably in October. King George VI and Queen Eliza­ beth cleared the road to royal ro­ mance by giving unqualified approv­ al to the m atch and announcing the en­ gagem ent in a tra­ ditional court circu­ lar. Lt. M ountbatten is a second cousin to the king and a great grandson of Queen Victoria. As the husband of Prin­ cess Elizabeth, he will be Britain’s first prince consort since Queen Vic­ toria’s husband, Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg. He cannot become king, but probably will be given a dukedom shortly before the wedding. King George is expected to ask parliam ent to increase Princess Elizabeth’s income aiid perhaps give her husband a special allowance. OIL EXPORTS: Supply Russia A special export. license for the shipm ent of petroleum products to Russia was granted by the depart­ m ent of com m erce hours after Rep­ resentative Weichel (Rep., O.), chairm an of the house m erchant m arine committee, demanded the license be refused. Weichel previously had tele­ phoned William C. Foster, under­ secretary of commerce, urging him to halt the m ovement of 248,000 bar­ rels of petroleum being loaded aboard three tankers on the West coast. P rincess Elizabeth IN D E X H IG H , T O O Gain Shown in Farm Income WASHINGTON. — Farm income during the first six months of 1947 was 30 per cent higher than that of the. corresponding period last year, it was revealed in the agriculture departm ent’s monthly review of farm income. Farm ers netted $11,700,000,000 from the sale of their products dur­ ing that period, with A e total increased to about 12 billion dollars through governm ent paym ents, the report showed. Largest increase was 70 per cent registered in sale of m eat anim als. Cash receipts from dairy products w ere up 30 per cent from the cor­ responding period last year. Cash receipts from crops were around $3,800,000,000 in the first half, or 29 per cent above the cor­ responding period last year. Most of this increase was in grains and tobacco. Prelim inary estim ates for June show that fanners received about two billion dollars from m arketings, an increase of 30 per cent from June, 1946. Receipts from livestock and their products were up about 50 per cent on the sam e basis of com pari­ son. “Demand for m eat for domestic consumption and for export con­ tinues unusually strong,” the agri­ culture ■ departm ent’s statem ent said. “M eat anim al prices in m H- June were about 50 per cent higher on the average than a year before.” The declining wheat prices are expected to continue into August or September. “Because of the very large export dem and, however, the price decline will be less than is usual when a very large crop is m arketed.” Prices paid by farm ers for their needs in June averaged 230 per cent of the 1910-14 average. Prices paid for feed advanced to the highest level since last August. In general, the statem ent conclud­ ed, the index ol prices paid by- farm ers is expected to continue at high levels in the next few months.

CHAPTER XIV ‘‘Let ’her work this out herself,” argued John I., “you can’t protect her forever. You’ve got your own problem s.” “And they,” Julia sighed, “have no answ ers in the back of the book.” John I. blew his breath out harsh­ ly, like a w alrus. “How do you know? You won’t even look in the back of the book.” ‘Because I know that what I’m looking for isn’t there, John I. It’s locked up in m y heart, and I think m y heart died long ago.” “It w as your common sense that died!” . “ You’re right. I’ve never argued that you w eren’t right where Rich­ ard w as concerned. But I do owe Ric and Jill something, if only to repay them for giving them Rich­ ard for their father.” The old m an’s eyes flashed under his storm y eyebrows. “ You talk to Jill about it. You see what she says. She’ll tell you to get a di­ vorce in a m inute.” “I can’t talk to Jill. You know I can’t. I can’t tear down what little she has of Richard. It would be a wicked thing to do.” “You’re taking a big risk, Doo­ ley,” John I. said solemnly. “I’ve warned you, but you’re a stubborn woman. I know that fellow better than you do.” She knew too well the risk she took, knew that undoubtedly she was being a fatuous optim ist in as­ sum ing that Richard would stay aw ay now that he had m ade the break, now that she knew that he had not been a casualty of the w ar; every tim e a car drove in at the gate her heart stopped beating, ev­ ery tim e the telephone rang when she was in the house she hurried to answer it, fearing M am ie’s sly curiosity, fearing revelation for Jill. W hat she would do if Riphard cam e again w as a nightm are ques­ tion that kept dread at her throat like icy fingers. She lay awake at night, torm ented by im aginary scenes. (“Jill, this is your father. He loved you and all of us so little that he stayed aw ay from us and hid behind an assum ed nam e for twen­ ty-five years.” ) W hat would Jill’s reaction be? Richard had that devilish, engaging, deadly charm . Would Jill hate her father, or an­ swering that curious attraction, the im pelling force that psychologists had a nam e for, would she turn to him and despise her . m other for thrusting him out of her life? It m ust not happen—but suppose it did happen? W as she being fair to Jill, keeping her in ignorance, unprepared, defenseless? H er hope was that R ichard would be trans­ ferred, sent overseas, before the great harm she feared could be done. But eventually the w ar would end. “When Jill is m arried it won’t m atter so m uch,” she told herself. “When Ric has found himself, and they are both settled.” Dave had not come again to Buz­ zard’s Hill, since that day she had sobbed out her torm ent on his shoul­ der. Jill rem arked about it. “W hat’s wrong between you and Dave? I hope you didn’t blam e Dave because I was so awkward I couldn’t stick in a saddle?” “Don’t be silly. Of course I didn’t blam e Dave. He’s probably very busy. He’s on the ration board, and they’ve had a great deal to do lately.” Waiting for a Letter From Spang “They don’t work nights, do they?” “I suspect that they do, being vol­ unteers and having their own busi­ nesses to attend to in the daytim e. Shall I call Dave and ask him to come over?” “No, don’t call him. Don’t you recaD all those lectures you used to deliver to m e, about how much m en resented being called up and coaxed? Don’t abandon your prin­ ciples now.” “ Dave’s different. He’s m erely an old friend.” “Jill crooked her m outh dryly. “You’re very naive, Julia, my love! Do you usually weep on the bosoms of m erely old friends? When your child takes a nose-dive into a briar patch?” “I’d have wept on any bosom that was handy, then,” Julia said with determ ined airiness, hoping that her face w asn't burning. “I was afraid you’d broken your back.

I’ve been won­ dering just w hat went on here any­ way, while I was at the hospital. You and G randfather both look as though you’d seen ghosts. If Ric were overseas I’d suspect that you were hiding something grim from m e, sparing your tender, weak­ ened daughter from a shock. Don’t ever do that, Dooley. Dooley—” She jerked erect suddenly, her eyes black wells of terror. “Dooley, it isn’t Spang? You haven’t heard— you aren’t hiding something from m e?” She ' laughed and patted her cheek. “ No, foolish woman, we aren’t hiding anything about Spang. I’ve heard nothing from Spang— only w hat you’ve told m e.” “I thought he m ight have crashed —and you were trying to keep m e from finding out. But if a letter cam e for m e—Ric m ight hear something—” “If a letter cam e for you, I should “Read it and tell m e w hat to do.” give it to you. Even if I thought it held bad news, I’d give you credit for having the strength to take it. You’re m y child.” Jill reached up and pressed her hand. “ You lived through it, I sup­ pose I could. But im agining things is worse than really experiencing them , isn’t it? Seeing ships tor­ pedoed at sea, and transport planes coming down in flames or crash­ ing horribly! If only I knew some­ thing!” “A lot of women are saying that now, Jill. You’re part of an arm y that needs m ore courage than the m arines.” Ric Writes of His Marriage “There’s another thing that m akes m y nights hideous.” Jill burrowed her head into the curve of her m other’s arm . “W hat if he does come through safe, and then when he gets back he doesn’t w ant me? It could happen. They change. W ar changes them .” JuUa turned to the window, know­ ing weU that an involuntary spasm had drained and tightened her face. But her voice cam e, level and quiet­ ly controlled. “Other women have lived through that, too, Jill.” “I couldn’t. I’d die of humilia­ tion. I’d drown m yself in the cow- pond, where it’s deep and m uddy.” “Oh, no, you wouldn’t. You’d hold your head high and never show how badly you were hurt, and after a while you’d love some one else, some one worthy to be loved.” “You say that as though you m eant it. Dorothy Dix would be proud of you. But you don’t m ean it, of course. No woman could get oyer a thing like that. She m ight put on a good dct, but she’d never stop hurting deep inside because she’d given her heart away and got only a ragged wound instead. If Spang discards m e, I’m not going to be nobly brave. I’m going to be tough and break m en’s hearts and laugh. I'm going to throw away every m oral scruple. You watch and see!” “If I believed any of that. I’d be alarm ed. But I don’t believe it. You’re my child.” “I had two parents, didn’t I? You always assum e that I’m a m iniature of you, Dooley. I’m not. There’s a desperate kind of thing in m e that you don’t know about. Something you wouldn’t even understand.” Jill’s eyes were big and filled with wildness. “I could hurt people. I could hurt myself. T hat's the kind of M cFarlane I am . Not your kind at all.” “I respect your individuality,” she said. “You’re not a child now, you’re a person. W hat you do is your own responsibility.” But Jill’s eyes had flashed away to the window. Beyond it she could see old John I. trudging up the drive with the m ail. ■•“Quick, Dooley!” Her mood changed swiftly to one of breath­ less eagerness. “ M aybe there’s a letter.” There was no letter from Spang. But there was a letter from Ric. Julia read it slowly, keeping her face from, showing the consternation that she was feeling. Jill said, “If that’s from Ric you needn’t tell m e w hat’s in it. I know. Please send m e a little cash!” “ Yes—it’s the sam e old thing,” Julia evaded, trying to sm ile, trying to be natural. JUl m ustn’t Imow yet. She wanted to talk to John I. She wanted advice. She went out of the house and walked up to the lane gate, and when John I. cam e tram ping back from the barn he saw her there, sitting on the old m ounting block, her face a taut, gray m ask of m isery. "W hat’s wrong?” he asked. “H eard from that fellow again? I thought that letter I got for you was from’Ric?” “It was from R ic.” She handed him the crum pled page. “You’d better read it, John I. Read it and teU m e what to do.” The old m an pulled a worn spec­ tacle case from his back pocket, set a second pair of spectacles astride his nose. He dropped down beside her, and his Ups moved slowly as he read the letter. D ear Dooley (Ric had w ritten): Sorry for this abrupt letter, but this is it. I’m taking off, don’t know where. Transferred to some lousy school or other. Very sudden. No explanation, of course. Not in this arm y. I m eant to try for a pass and see you myself. I’d rather have told you this than had to write it. Dooley, I’m m arried. She’s the sw eetest, IoveUest girl I’ve ever m et. H er nam e is Sandra, and life has been hard on her, but she has been brave and sweet through it aU. That’s what m akes it so hard now. I can’t take care of her or protect her. I can’t even have her with m e, not tUl I rate something better than a private. I can’t even feed her. And she’s m y wife. I was going to bring her home, but that’s out now, so aU I can do is send her to you with a prayer. Be good to her, M other. She’s swell, and you’re so swell you’U get along fine, I know. She’ll wire you when to m eet her. TeU the others hello. And don’t worry about m e. I’U be aU right. Love, RIC. JUl’s eyes were blazing, JiU’s face was white as a sheet. John I. was doggedly pretending to eat his supper, but Julia—after putting but­ ter on a biscuit three tim es and slopping coffee on her napkin be­ cause her hands shook so—had giv­ en up. M am ie w as in and out of the swing door, hearing everything. JUl said, “Oh, the fool! The poor deluded fool!” Julia said, “If you knew about this girl, Jill, you should have told us. Something m ight have been done to stop this m ad m arriage.” “ Girl—she’s no girl! I know it’s the sam e one. And I suppose it’s m y fault. I should have told you, but I didn’t w ant to worry you. I thought Ric would be shipped out,’ and it would all blow over. She m ust have worked fast. Dooley, she’s a grass widow, she’s years older than Ric.” “But you don’t actually know that this is the woman, Jill. H er nam e is Sandra, Ric says.” “I know. Sandra Calvert. She was m arried to a Lieutenant Colo­ nel, Spang said, and when he was sent away from Ridley, she stayed and got a divorce. Now she’s just a camp-foUower. She’s a chem ical blonde with a greedy m outh and hard eyes. You aren’t going to let her come here? This is my home, it’s G randfather’s home, too. Even Mamie has been here for years. I won’t have it. TeU her she can’t do it, G randfather.” JuUa said, unhappily, “JiU, please! W hat can we do? This is' Ric’s home, too. This woman is Ric’s wife.” “Dooley, if that woman comes into this house, I’U leave!” Jill Issues An Ultimatum JuUa gripped her unsteady hands in her lap. Dying, she was thinking, would be a Uttle like this. Richard, her son, her handsome lad, the boy she had loved so much! She felt as though she were sinking into a deep, icy pit. JiU went on ruthlessly, “We can’t have her here, you know that. It would be horrible.” She jumped up, her fork clattered to the floor. “I’m going to send that creature a tele­ gram right now and teU her she won’t be welcome here. I suppose she’s still at that hotel. M rs. Rich­ ard M cFarlane Jr.! Oh, Ddoley, when I think of a woman like that having your nam e, I could kiU Ric! I’m going to send a wire this min­ ute, and no one is going to stop - »»4116» Julia flew. “JiU!

EDITOR’S NOTE: JCessoa subjects end Scripture tests selected end copyrighted by IttterastieasI Coimcr*/ of Religious Edu- cstion; used bj permission. By HAROLD L LUNDfiUISIt D. 9 . Of The Moody MbIe Institute. Chicago. fPDUCATION is so widespread in our day, and so eagerly sought after, th at one m ight assum e that the world would soon solve its prob­ lem s through the cultural attain­ m ents of .its people. Why Oiis Is not true appears clearly In our lesson; for it is wis­dom that the world needs, and wisdom is quite different from (he understanding or memorizing of a mass of facts. Wisdom teaches us how to use knowledge effectively for the glory of God. We see in our lesson: I. The Meaning of Wisdom (Prov. 1:1-5). p ROVERBS are pithy, useful say- 1 ings, which gather up the wisdom of a people in easily rem em bered form . They are highly thought of in aU nations, but reached their high­ est development among the He­ brews, because they rightly insisted that they m ust be related to God and worship of him. We learn in this passage that they are given to us that we m ay “know” that we have both wisdom and instruction. The growth of knowledge is alw ays a prerequisite to growth in grace—learn m ore about God and his precious Word, and you will have m ore of his grace upon you. Knowledge must be coupled with discernment (v. 2), which speaks of going beyond and below the surface meaning. This will not be an abstract love of the schol­arly, but a practical application of truth to life (v. 3). Wisdom re­ sults in right living and proper dealing with our neighbors. The one who has come to this place is ready to give (v. 4) help to others, especially to the young or those of “sim ple" thinking, who have not yet reached I the place w here they can get hold of such things for themselves. Notice that the wise m an does not stop at that point, but because he is wise he goes on to m ore and m ore understandings, to further receiving and giving out of “sound counsels” (v. 5). Observe next, II. The Value of Wisdom (Prov. 3:13-18). T H E character of a man shows •* up in the things he holds to be valuable. Some cannot see beyond gold and silver. Others seek com­ fort and convenience, and do not wish to be disturbed in their easy ways. The wise man knows that for real pleasure of the highest type, for peace of mind and heart, for riches that will last and not bring him into either sin or sorrow, there is nothing like the cultiva­ tion of understanding and wis­ dom. This scripture affords us the op­ portunity to say a needed word to young people who are being so sorely tem pted these days to forego their opportunities for an education, and to rush out into the world to m ake money, m ore money, yes, the m ost possible money. Education seem s to be unneces­ sary, a w aste of tim e and effort. But wait, the years will come and go, and then when it is too late, the realization will come that a golden opportunity w as m issed, and that doors of usefulness and effective­ ness are now closed. It pays to give tim e to the cultiva­ tion of the mind and of the heart in preparation for life. We are not thinking prim arily of the dollars and cents value now, Ior that is secondary, even though it m ay be im portant. III. The Source of Wisdom (Prov. 9:9, 10; Jam es 1:5). G OD is the source of wisdom, and it is as a m an fears him that he becomes wise. The fear of God is not a m atter of fright or terror, but rather a genuine concern that one m ay do his will and never fail to be obedient to his guidance. God is always m ore ready to give than we are to receive. He will not turn us aside, or belittle our efforts; but will, if we ask, give wisdom, and that in no little m easure. Let no man think that he can attain unto true wisdom apart from a right relationship to God. He may have knowledge, but not wisdom. On the other band, let no man who knows God and serves him go through life lacking wis­ dom when all he has to do is to ask it of his* heavenly Father. Why be poverty-stricken wbfn you can be rich in wisdom and understanding? Released by Western Newspaper Union.

CEMSON Prcsittait—HcrJii'H C- Ihji ' Jri,:::/:! j ________________________I Story With a I To. "I Cne tim e there was a yov.n" trs - . the younger son of a v.e:!-'.o-U< farm er. Times were good, price were high. It was a period c' prosperity for everybody. Appar- i entiy, spending had become a habii with m ost of the folks in that com- i munity. At any rate, this son saw I I that others were having a good time I : spending money. Since everybody'.:-' doing it, he thought, why shouldn’t I enjoy myself? So this fine young m an who had . all the opportunities one could wish ’ for, and a brilliant future in sight, kept after his father until one day "the old m an settled him oft” with a good deal of money. This coun­ try boy then went to town and set out to have himself a better time than he had ever had before. He, spent m ore money than he had ever J spent before. Friends were numer- 1 ous. Playboy super-de luxe, this | young m an had sw arm s of lady friends. But they required money. He Achieved tVisdom Now, you are wondering, if you have read this far, whether this . misguided and pam pered lad ever quit spending. He did. He quit i spending when a depression set in, I ; for that was the time when he found j him self unable to obtain any m o re! money. At this point, our broken down playboy began to think. Wis­ dom was forced upon him and he learned the hard way. He found he couldn’t even buy a sandwich, and panhandling was out of the . question. Rather than starve, he took a farm job feeding pigs. If this lad had done w hat some of our so-called statesm en advocate, he would have continued to borrow and spend. But having thought the m atter through, he went to work, even though his hunger was scarce­ ly outdone by that of the pigs he was sent to feed. He had spent all, and he was in want. You may read the rest of this story in Luke 15. for it is the story of the Prodigal I Son who fin all v cam e to his senses, I No Money Mill M ust we as a nation spend all that we have before we come to our senses, like the Prodigal Son? With signs of depression approach­ ing, we continue to spend and spend, apparently from habit. Doing little or nothing about our m cnstrous ra ­ tional debt of $260,000,000,009, we continue to look around trying to find things for which to appropriate money. It is easy to justify any and evervexpenditure, Constituents in each and every community represented by Senator Bloake and Congress­ m an Doake can scout a whole book of reasons why this or that pet proj­ ect m ust go through. Folks are in­ clined to think that the money for the whole thing is a gift, just because they don’t see where it comes from. But the founding fathers did not leave at Washington a mill which flows out perpetual dollars. Day of Reckoning Maybe it's not a nice thought, but you can’t keep on spending money without knowing where it’s coming from . This was a fact the Prodigal Son discovered. Neither can you safely m anufacture currency to car­ ry through your spending projects. E ither course will soon lead to dire results. A day of reckoning will come to a country that spends all it has, just as it did to the Prodigal Son. Let us have m ore wisdom than the Prodigal, who found that he could repent only when hard tim es struck him. Our spending, as opposed to sav­ ing, has created a situation that calls for the best brand of intelligent cit­ izenship. It is already tim e to go to work. Without being penny wise and pound foolish, we ought to adopt fiscal policies that will cut down our growing debt. There’s no prospect of doing this unless we do It while tim es are good. Uncle Sam Says Everybody knows it pays to buy V. S. Bonds. But not everybody knows how muph it pays. By invest­ ing as small a sum as $2.50 a week in U. S. Bonds, your savings will be $1,440.84 in ten years. Take savings of $3.75 a week; by 1957, you will have $2,163.45. There are two easy ways to save automatically. Have a regular amount of money set aside from your pay each week for bonds through the Payroll Savings Plan. Or, if you’re not on a payroll, bet you do have a checking account, you can have your bank automatic­ally charge your account for Hie purchase price of a bond eachmonth. U. S. Treasury Department IN THE STILL OF THE NIOHT A MAM DIED - 1 . \ He had worked late—he was tired—thoughtlessly he walked to the right along the darkened highway. Beyond the turn of the road were the lights of home. Speeding through the early darkness, ?, driver urged his car along, hugging the edge of the road. A dim shape, a sudden sicken­ ing jolt — and the terrorized driver, his car careening, sped on — around the curve, past the lighted cottage beside the road. And in the still of the night, a man died. These are the ingredients of accidents and death at night. Often • the victim contributes to his own death by not walking to the left, facing traffic. But far too many pay with their lives for the reckless driving of the hit-and-run car coward. To him self-preservation is more urgent than the saying of a life. To his kind let this be a warning. Of all highway and traffic vio­ lators, the hit-and-run driver fares worst Sooner or later, his crime leads to prison and disgrace. The highways shall be cleared of these auto highwaymen.

Several jars should be canned for use with winter meals, when heavy foods are needed. This recipe comes from the universally used Ball Blue Book on home can­ ning; I gallon crab apples 6 to 8 cups sugar cups water 4 cups vinegar I stick cinnamon I tablespoon crushed ginger I tablespoon whole allspice $4 tablespoon whole cloves Wash apples and pierce each with a needle. Heat sugar, liquids and spices (tied in bag) until sugar dis­ solves. Cool. Add apples and sim­ mer until tender. Let stand several hours or overnight. Pack cold apples into hot jars. Boil the sirup to the desired thickness and pour over ap­ ples. Process five minutes in hot water bath.
