The marihuana (you may spell it with a “J” if you prefer) men­ ace has blighted the hopes of Davie farmers to promote a new crop iti- dust'y in that couuty and others tn this immediate area, according to a news story from- the Forsyth courthouse. At a recent meeting of farm lead­ ers at Mocksvilie with’ extension service authorities and others, plans were tentatively adopted to pro­ mote the growing of hemp in this area. - The plant has valuable le­ gitimate commercial usages and the soil and climate of Piedmont North Caroiiha appear to be well adapted to its growth. . At this time no one thought of the more sinister possibilities !which might arise-from the quant’ty pro; dhction of hemp in this section. But authorities have made it. "dear that growers be compelled to ob­ tain license to grow hemp because the dried flowers and leaves of this plant constitute what the Mexicans call marihuana, a drug whose; an­ cient history is black with . crime and insanity.

The results of such tutoring is. the youth is graduating from high school! and college . with the opinion: that'fh'e.world not only .owes him a living, but should give him a liberal teward in advance for the success lie’s bound to be in the future.

After his graduation. Grant, spent several, years as an officer in the United States Army, but. he found his dutieB very tiresome and dis- cou raging.

Grant happily hurried home, eager to:try.his hand!ata more. attractive job, Re was certain that a soldier’s life was not for him, but although be tried real estate, farming, merch­ andising, poiitics and several other jobs he failed at all of them.

New Regime Set Up in Roumania Senator Ellison D.

Jap Refusal Starts Race T APAN having flatly refused to re- “ veal her naval building plans, it is believed that the greatest navy construction race ever seen is about to start, and the United States may feel called upon to take the lead, with. England, France and Japan in the competition. Our government told Japan that a refusal to divulge her intentions would be regarded as confirmation of reports that she was constructing or planning super-war- ships, so now, according to some of­ ficials in Washington, we will have to invoke the “escalator clause” of the London treaty and build larger and more powerfully armed battle­ ships. The President may be expected to order increase of the three battle­ ships now planned from 35,000 tons each to 43,000 or 45,000 tons, and such dreadnaughts probably would carry 18-inch guns.In order to obviate the restric­ tions on the size of battleships that inhere in the width of the Panama canal locks and to minimize the con­tingency of interruption of coast-to- coast communication through de­ struction of a Panama lock by an enemy, the administration is pre­ paring to push the project of a canal through Nicaragua. Congressmen who fear the Presi­ dent is piloting the nation into war with Japan made probably futile moves to prevent our government from joining in the rearmament race. Senator King of Utah and Representative Maverick of Texas introduced resolutions authorizing Mr. Roosevelt to call a world naval limitation conference, which Japan has said she would be willing to attend. Though Secretary Hull had de­ nied that there was any understand­ ing with Great Britain and France concerning Japan, opponents of the administration were still suspicious that it was planning joint action. Representative George Tinkham of Massachusetts voiced their senti­ ments when he uttered a warning that “every day brings the United States nearer to a war with Japan as planned by Great Britain to fur­ ther British interests.” This view was shared by the Tokyo press, which charged that the controversy was brought on by a secret naval understanding among America, Britain and France, and that the demand made on Japan was engineered by the British to involve the United States in diffi­ culties with Japan. Hearings by the house naval af­ fairs committee on the President’s big navy program went into the third week, with opposition dwin­dling as a result of Japan’sUnfa­ vorable reply to the request for her intentions. ' ' —-S - Singapore Base Opened W impressive ceremonies v ’ Great Britain formally opened her powerful naval base at Singa­ pore. Sir Shenton Thomas, gover­ nor of the Straits Settlements, dedi­ cated the great new $55,000,000 dry- dock, declaring the naval base was not a challenge to war, but insur­ ance against war. Prominent among the carefully selected guests were Rear Admiral Julius Townsend and his officers of the American battle cruisers Tren­ton, Memphis and Milwaukee. The American squadron arrived at Sing­ apore from Australia, where it had been participating in ceremonies marking the one hundred fiftieth anniversary of the commonwealth. Great Battle in China (~VNE of the greatest battles ever . fought was reported to be tak­ ing place in central China, where the Japanese invaders smashed- a Chinese army of 15,000 and forced it to retreat across the Yellow river Mizon Cristem under fire and without bridges, which had been destroyed by the defend­ ers. Five Japanese armies were driving southward through the rich central China agricultural -region and were seriously threatening Kai- feng, capital of Honan province.From the south, three Japanese armies were advancing from the Hwai river. Gen. Chiang Kai-shek had 400,000 troops along the north and south fronts fighting to prevent the Jap­ anese from gobbling up the huge Lunghai “corridor.” China’s revitalized air force, with Russian and other foreign fliers re­ ported among its personnel, was said to have bombed the Yellow river bridge at Lokow, north of Tsin­ an, which the Japanese only recent­ly repaired. This cut the Japanese line of communication along the northern section ’of the Tientsin-Pu- kow railway. Another Dictator State O UMANIA is now added to the l v European states under dicta­ torship. Octavian Goga’s govern­ment was so anti-Semitic and pro- Fascist that it was forced out, and King Carol took charge of affairs by naming Dr. Miron Cristea as premier and dis­ solving the parlia­ ment. Cristea, patri­ arch of the Ru­manian Orthodox church, was given virtual dictator pow­ er, but it was ex­pected George Tar- tarescu would very soon succeed him as premier and that Carol would create a crown council over which Dr. Cristea would preside. Much of the new government’s au­ thority was concentrated in. the army, and a nation-wide state of siege was proclaimed. A commis­sion was set to work formulating a new constitution. Cristea, the key man of the gov­ ernment, was expected to take steps to regain the friendship of France and Great Britain, traditional allies of Rumania, without offending Italy and Germany. Franco Masses Huge Army T"\ ISPATCHES from Salamanca, headquarters of the Spanish rebels, said General Franco was getting together an army of a million men a n d planned a spring of­ fensive that would end the 'bloody civil war. Military ob­ servers believed his main' effort would be directed toward a drive to the Medi­ terranean coast from the south Ara­ gon front above Te- _ _ ruel. This would ef-Gen. Franco fectually divide the territory now held by the govern­ ment. It may be that Franco will lose his Italian “volunteers,” for Lon­ don had a rumor that the British cabinet was considering a secret agreement with Mussolini by which Britain would recognize the- Duce’s conquest of Ethiopia if. he would withdraw his troops from Spain. ' More for Dole Asked PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT in a ^ special message asked congress to appropriate $250,000,000 more for relief to 'supplement the billion and a half relief fund. He said this was necessary to care for three million persons thrown out of work during the last three months. A bill to carry out the President’s suggestions was introduced in the house immediately and speeded to­ ward passage. UA AAA A A A AAA AAA AAAA A A A A A A A •- WHO'S NEWS THIS WEEK..a By Lemuel F.

Some day a little band of diplomats and financiers will meet in the Paris _. catacombs or aDtpltimatM London fog, heav- Prey to . ily disguised, and Pertinax p u t something over, and Pertinax won’t catch them at it. To date, the watchful French journalist has anticipated and cried down every effort, warning all and sundry that, whatever it is, it won’t work. Thus, the studious proposals at Paul van Zeeland, former premier of Belgium, were blasted several weeks in advance of their publica­tion, as just so much eye-wash. Pertinax is one of the most bril­liant and influential journalists of Europe and anything he touches up in advance goes in with two strikes against it. As does the Van Zeeland plan for economic reconstruction. Walt Disney is readying “Snow White” for France. That probably means that Pertinax is preparing to swing on it, just before it lands there. One American commen­ tator made the film his sole excep­ tion in many years of dissent. N ot­ ing like that may be expected from Pertinax. He is the only full-time dissenter who bats 1.000. He has picked fights with Senator Borah, former Presi­ dent Hoover (being the only man ever to assail an American Presi­ dent with that dignitary present), with all the Germans, before, dur­ ing and after the war, and with all ambassadors of good wilL In 1933, the French government announced it would spend $1,320,000 .... _ , to build good willW u e Craeke Jn America.

And, just in passing, any French journalist ought to know a lot about, materialists.

He is at his best in discov­ ering and exposing Geneva’s good will conspiracies. He is a Parisian sophisticate, dap­ per, dressy, monocled, getting about a great deal and nosing in various diplomatic feed-boxes—a first-class reporter; but never satisfied. One of the depressing things about him is that he is so often right as he pans this or that hopeful endeavor before anybody else knows what it is.• • • A PROPOS of recent flare-ups of I * the behaviorist argument among the psychologists, here’s Eugene Ormandy in the news as a timely exhibit of the effect of early conditioning. Long before he was married, Eugene Ormandy’s father, a Hungarian dentist, used to say, “Some day I’m going to get mar­ ried and have a son and I’m going to make him a great violinist.” Years later, he pressed a tiny violin into his new baby’s hand and had him coached in rhythm before he was out of the cradle. At the age of three, the boy was working hard at his violin lessons. m , His only toys were Boy Wonder music boxes. And flow Great now, Eugene' Or- Conduetor mandy, conductor of the Philadel­ phia orchestra, gets the Gustav Mahler medal, following the per­ formance of his composition, “Das Lied Von Der Erde.” At the age of five, he was a stu­dent in the Budapest academy of music, through at fourteen, but not allowed to go on tour as a violinist until he was seventeen. In 1921, he was in New York, hoping to bridge the break in his career with his last five-cent piece. He did, as a violin­ ist at the Capitol theater,’ then as­ sistant conductor, later with Roxy’s gang and then six years as conduo-' tor of the Minneapolis symphony or­ chestra. . He is perhaps the first conductor to be upped to fame by radio. His father in Hungary isn’t alto­ gether pleased. “Just think what a great violinist you might have been,” he wrote to his son.© Consolidated News Features.WNU Service. Constitution-Maker Pelatiah Webster was a Philadel­phia business man, remembered for his advocacy of a revision of the Articles of Confederation by creat­ing a new Constitution in his “Dis­ sertation of the Political Union and Constitution of the Thirteen United States of North America (1783).” He is, therefore, sometimes consid­ ered as the originator of the Consti­ tution, though, his plan was unlike the product of the federal conven­ tion.

W a s h in g t o n D i g e s t g National Topics Interpreted ByW ILLIAM BRUCKART Washington.—It always has- been interesting to me to see how politi- „ cians frequentlyToo Many overlook real is- Lawe sues in national affairs. Many times they stimulate the hound that overruns the rabbits. That is the reason why so often a new man in public life suddenly rises to leader­ ship. He has taken hold of a bad situation that is right under our. feet, offered a constructive solu­ tion and has dealt with an immi­nent condition rather than schemed for re-election through political fence building.These facts lead directly into a bit of current history. It will be recalled how Bruce Barton cam­ paigned thTough congested sections of New York’s Manhattan island for an unexpired term in the house of representatives last fall. About all that Mr. Barton said of consequence in' his campaign speeches was that there are too many laws. I think that is obvious. When he was cam­ paigning on that line, he was speak­ ing for great masses of inarticulate citizens. But Mr. Barton went further. He announced his intention to seek re­ peal of one federal law a week un­ til there is some semblance of rea­ son in the structure of federal laws. Now, of course, Mr. Barton is very new in politics.' He had been keeping his nose to the grindstone, of business. He Imew only what other persons outside of politics knew, namely, that high pressure minorities, sour pusses and nit wits were getting one law after another through congress, and that, in the end, those laws would be ruinous to the country as a whole. Whetiier Mr. Barton thought he would suc­ceed or whether he recognized- the fact that he was only making a ■start, it does not matter. Bruce Barton has taken hold of an obvi­ ous issue in national affairs and it 4s not outside of the realm of prob­ abilities that he will “go places” ;with his program. Thus far, it.must ;be said that Mr. Barton has suc­ ceeded only in getting a dozen re- :peal bills into the house commit­ tees through introduction in the lIiouse. None has been acted on. iFew probably will <be acted on—if !the house runs true to form, That 4s to say, Mr. Barton is a Republi­ can and the house is controlled by !Democrats and New Dealers. Nat­ urally, they will give no opportunity !for the opposition to gain credit for anything, no concessions at all. The significance of the Barton program goes much deeper, howev­ er, and it is of that significance'that I want to write. Through more than twenty years as an observer !of national affairs here in Washing­ ton, obviously I have witnessed many issues develop, or be created, or be discovered. It seems to me 'that the really important national ,issues are those that develop, as toe Barton program is developing. That means the issue is fundamen­tal; it means, frirther, that there is no necessity for building toe issue, and it means as well that it in­volves vital questions of policy. As I said above, there are. too many laws, too many don’ts : and very few do’s. Restriction and reg- lUlation always breed more restric­ tion and regulation. The Roosevelt administration has been constantly .saying “don’t” in the shape of laws and the tremendous majority in con- igress has been giving President Roosevdt almost unlimited power to do as he wants to do beyond the “don’t” legislation. So the Bar­ton program would restore a great deal of freedom to the people them­ selves and would restore to con­ gress much of the ' power that it has given to toe President. To car­ry that thought further, then, the Barton program actually seems to me to propose saying only those laws that toe progress of civiliza­ tion shows to be sound and work­ able.• • • We might consider some of toe statutes which Mr. Barton wants to ■ . repeal. There is- Ttme to Cut -for example the Them Out so-called Thomas amendment — one of toe most assinihe and dangerous pieces of legislation ever to get on toe statute books. The legislation, forced- through by Senator Thomas of Oklahoma in May of 1933, gave the President toe power to issue $3,000,000,000 in paper currency. I do not see how anybody can regard it as anything but authority to issue printing press money. Of course, it never has been used by President Roosevelt and probably never will be, but toe-authority to go into print­ing press-inflation exists and that is toe danger. How, for instance, can you or I ; or 'anyone else feel sure that toe money we have in our pocket or the few dollars in toe bank is going to be worth anything tomorow when toe President of toe United States, by one stroke of toe pen,'could turn loose a flood of worthless money. ., -Mr. Barton also seeks liquidation of a flock of government agencies. Some of them are 20 years old nr of even greater age—built as war­ time emergency units, but still in existence for no reason at all. Be­ sides the War Finance corporation and some others of that Warthne era, it is proposed to; get rid of some things of more recent date. The Commodity Credit corporation and the two export-import banks, to mention only three. Now, there is no reason available for retention of the’skeletons of the World war, and there appears to have been no rea­ son for creation of : such things as the export-import banks. I mean there was no sound reason. Those radicals who forced the diplomatic recognition of Soviet Russia thought there was reason for the export- import banks because they held such banks would enable trade with Russia. But Russian trade . has amounted to about the same as the sale of mules in my home county of Missouri Two other pieces of legislation which Mr. Barton seeks to repeal are strictly New DeaL One is that law which gave the President toe right to change toe value of the dol­ lar at will, within certain limita­ tions. I suppose toere are some who still believe that devaluation of toe dollar has done or can do good in aiding recovery. It seems to me, however, that existence of that power in toe hands of one man: is just another basis for uncertainty among all of toe people; In any event, toe failure of toat panacea has been amply demonstrated. The piece of far-reaching New Deal legislation concerned is toe so- called Guffey coal law. That thing is a price fixing measure. It gave authority to a coal commission to prescribe prices throughout the country, and producers would be violating a law if they sold below those figures; they would be sub­ ject to fines and prison terms. Onty recently, toe price fixing features were enjoined by a circuit court of appeals and so at the moment they are not operative. Yet toe threat exists. And attention should be called to toe fact also toat the three judges who granted an injunction were appointed by President Roose­ velt and supposed, therefore, to be very liberal in their views.' Mr. Barton called the Guffey coal act a piece, of "grand larceny against the consumers,” because, he explained, the consumers are made to pay the higher .prices fixed by toe commis­sion and they have no word to say about it. Among other laws which Mr. Bar­ ton wants to repeal is the ill-starred silver purchase act That law was another one which the inflationists' in congress forced through in 1S34 when all of the brain-trust camp followers' were in their heyday. The only result toat I can discover flow­ ing from the silver purchase act is a grand outpouring of cash for the owners of silver mines. They ob­ tained two or three times what their silverwasrealtyworth.' Analysis Cd the limited number of laws, I believe, shows the trend of toe Barton program. It may be that he will never get to first base with any of them. My conviction, however, is quite to the contrary. I firmly expect to see a growth in toe strength toat such a program' will muster.• • • About the time you are reading this column, there will be an inci- .... . dent taking placeMtfesfone in >way off in Tisnt- Army Hietory sin, China, that is a milestone in toe history of toe United States army. Late in February orders become operative for toe departure of toe Fifteenth United States infantry from Chinese soil. That, of itself, of course, does not provoke particu­lar interest. . But toe famous Fif­ teenth has been on’foreign duty for 26 years and that is the longest any unit of toe United States army ever has been away from our shores. It ought to be explained that very few of the soldiers making up the Fifteenth infantry were with toe outfit when it first was assigned overseas. But toe regiment been stationed abroad and toe re­ cruits to its ranks have been dis­ patched continuously to it as re­ tirements and expiration of enlist­ments have occurred. It is now coming back to American soil and will .be stationed at Fort : Lewis. The Fifteenth has a most honor­ able record, beginning with its or­ ganization in 1861. It won honors at Shiloh and in toe campaigns of 1862 in Alabama and Kentuclqr. It fought at Murfreesboro, at Chicka- mauga, Chattanooga, and at'Atlan­ ta. In 1880, it was at the front in toe campaigns against Utes, and again in the China relief expedition of 1900, and these Were followed by action In the Phihppine insurrec­tion. There was a brief spell when toe regiment was on home soil, but then it went to work in Cuba. Sub­ sequently, it was moved around here and there until the Manchu dynasty was overthrown and C%ina became a republic. It sailed for Tientsin - in November, 1912, and toere it has remained.Q Western Nwwspwper Union. CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT BABY CHICKS Tennnm Chick*—From Sne blood tested Bocks—an breeds.

Gladys Swarthout eats whipped cream on boiled cabbage, a peasant dish she learned to eat as a vocal student in Hungary. —-K- Because Carole Lombard does not like turkey and cannot eat it with­ out an expression of disgust, a prop­ erty man on the “Fools for Scan­ dal” set had to fix np something that looked like a turkey leg, but wasn’t, for a scene of hers.* He just stripped a turkey leg, wrapped it with roast beef, and Carole was able to play the scene with required enthusiasm. Hollywood players, equally weary of crowds, are joining a back-to-the- farm movement.

The bolero vogue is sweeping through all fashiondom like wildfire. Both in suits and dresses the bolero has leaped into the very foreground of the mode with such a flourish none can es­ cape it and what’s more no one with an eye to chic and charm will want to escape a fashion so flattering, so kind to waistlines, so make-you- look-young as do these new bo­ lero silhouettes. You can get most any type of a bolero outfit you happen to want which counts a lot when you are choosing a fashion “first” fo r spring. A simple tailored model is very practical in that with a supply of diverse blouses and a collection of intriguing accessories your bo­ lero costume comes well nigh serving as a whole wardrobe in it­ self. If 'you decide on a tailleur we would suggest that you look for a tweed in the ultra smart new wheat color or if navy or black be your preference you will be able to find models galore tailored of wool twills (watch twills for they are going big) or of gaberdine or of dependa­ble crepe or that which will carry the summer thsough, triple sheer. See to it that the bolero be. duly equipped with trim little pockets, two or more if you please.For those whose fancy turns to softer dressmaker styling there’s no limit to Hie models available. Per­ haps Hie outstanding note is sounded in plain with print combinations. Of these types there is such a vast outpouring from style sources you will, feel an attack of brain storm coming on when you try to make a selection. Sometimes the bolero and skirt is in monotone with perhaps a wide binding or bordering of ani­ mated print to which a gypsy sash is matched. Then agam the entire bolero is of the print with sash to match. With object in mind of calling at­ tention to the widely diverse trends interpreted in the now-so-important bolero costume, the three models were carefully selected from among a showing of advance fashions de­ signed by the Style Creators of Chi­cago in the wholesale district. These are typical of what you will find in leading shops and departments dur­ ing the coming months. ' In the center of the group we pre­ sent a charming dress of navy crepe, its modish bolero effectively trimmed in white nailheads. "They say” navy is going to be an out­ standing color choice for spring. In fact, all blues are good with espe­ cial emphasis on Hie new gray blues. Here’s another “pointer:” try with a navy bolero suit a blouse and sash to a soft violet shade, with which wear a boutonniere of spring violets, with plenty of self leaves to cool green. Sugar sacking to the very, very new wheat color makes the costume to the left. It has a brown print silk blouse with sash to match. The meticulously tailored bolero has the smart military influence. Ideal for spring is the sheer wool crepe to beige outfit pictured to the right. The revers to tuxedo stole are of cat lynx, the tawny colorings of which tune admirably to the gen­ eral scheme of things. The fur- trimmed bolero is a fashion high­ light that is destined to shine bright­ ly to the style parade, so be sure to keep your eye upon it. Rt conclud­ing we just thought you might like to know that to the shops you can find the most fascinating boleros of colorful suede with belts or tie sashes to match. Wear Htem with any skirt or dress and you’ll be classed with Hie best-dressed.W WeiMn Hewspapw Union.

LATE BELT MODES IN HUNGARY STYLES By CHElUE NICHOLAS Every naffon has some form of art particular to its people. In Hun­ gary,. IitHe nation in southern Eu­ rope, this folk art takes the form of exquisite embroidery that has be­come famous throughout the world. Weisz of Budapest has adapted the traditional patterns of the peas­ ants and styled them for the newest belt modes. EHdlled peasants, both men and women, have transferred the gay designs to linen and hand- loomed jute belts. The linen belts to natural or chalk white have bright woolen flowers embroidered on them. The edges are finished with a button-hole stitch of the cheerful yarn. AU of them are finished with amusing and unique shaped buckles of natural colored wood, hand-painted with tiny flowers. The hand-loomed jute belts that are perfect with suits, sweaters and light woolen frocks are also embroidered to bright yarns.These belts are washable and of fast colors.

One .of the difficulties we mortals face to dealing with spiritual things is that we interpret things to the realm of the spirit according to the principles and measurements of the physical world. We are quick to say “We cannot” on the basis of logical human reasoning, when an appreciation of the power of God operative on our behalf would en­ able us J d say “We can,” and hav­ ing left God out of our thinking we find that indeed we cannot. The lessqn before us presents two pictures from our Lord’s second vis­ it to his home country, Nazareth. On His first visit they had tried to thrust Him over the precipice, and He to all the glory and poise of the Son of God had walked through their midst and gone His way. Now He comes again with His disciples. We then see how His home folk virtual- Iy made the power of the omnipo­ tent God impotent because of their unbelief. On the other hand we see the. weakness of men made mighty because of obedience to the com­mand of God. I. The Paralysis of Unbelief (w. 1-6). The world, the flesh, and the devil have brought forth a dark list of wicked things, but perhaps the most destructive and distressing of all is the foundation sin of unbelief. When we think back to the underlying reason for any sin or weakness to man it will be found that there is a failure to believe God. Men do npt believe what He says about sin and its penalty, nor do they believe Him when He offers them grace and strength for victory. At Nazareth the unbelief which limited the Son of God revealed it­ self to two questions— 1. “Whence hath Hiis man these things?” (v. 2). They could not deny His mighty works so they turn their attack on His person. “Is not this the car­ penter?” (v. 3). Essentially this was envy, “the difficulty of ac­ knowledging the superiority over themselves of one of Uieir own num­ ber” . . . (Morgan). We are ashamed of the attitude of the men of Nazareth, but we follow to their footsteps. Heavy among the burdens a Christian worker must bear is the unbelief and ridicule of his own people. Be­ cause a man has sold us groceries, or painted our house ,or driven a taxi to our town we cannot see how he could ever be a preacher or a missionary. Well, he can, and it is such folk that God often calls.2. “What is this wisdom?” (v. 2). The wisdom of Jesus was the wis­ dom of God (John 7:16). But how could they know that? .How can we know?., In John 7:17 Jesus gave the answer: 4Tf any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.” We see then that the reason for their unbelief was really an unwillingness to do the will of God. The controlling motive of their life was wrong. Had they been moved, by a desire to do God’s will, and a purpose- t o live to accordance therewith (even though there might have been failure to that earnest effort), they would have known that Jesqs had His wis­dom from God. H. The Power of Divine Commis­ sion (w . 7-13). Just as unbelief hinders even the Son of Gdd, so faith to God .and obedience to His command makes of weak and poorly equipped men the mighty servants of God. In tact, their very dependence on Him for all things sets them free to devote them'selves fully to the. ministry of preaching and healing. Note Hiat they went “two by two.” .We have forgotten that di­ vine plan, and often send men into remote and dangerous pioneer work —alone. Man-needs fellowship; he needs counsel and control. Consider also how they were to learn to trust God for their daily sustenance (w. 8,9). They suffered no lack (see Luke 22:35). These rules for the life of religious work­ ers were modified later (Luke 22: 36), but.Hie principle remains the same—the man or woman who is not ready to depend on God for everything had better not set out to follow Him. It is a blessed and delightful life! Resisting Interference It is sometimes pretty hard to do something you feel is right against the interference of all the world and her little brother. Sometimes it’s a good thing to say “right or wrong, that’s m y story, and I’m going to stick to it,” no matter how many well-meaning friends' may advise otherwise.—Ouise Vapel.

We tried to get some of our good democratic friends to go to States­ ville last Wednesday evening to hear Senator Bob Reynolds mate a speech, but without results. What’s the matter in Davie? Is Bob slip­ ping? _________' The New Deal dealer Franklin, Roosevelt, told us five years ago that he was liable to make some mistakes in the new experiments he was going to try out, but if, and when he did, he would tell us about them. Up to this time we can’t remember a single instance in which he will admit that he was wrong. There are some honest men left in .the country despite the New Deal. A man who owed us four doliars took the trouble to drive 65 miles to pay us. Said he had no other business here, and the rea­ son he hadn’t called earlier was that it took him a long time under the New Deal to raise that amount of money. A gentleman from Hildebran, Burke county, has announced him­ self a candidate for the legislature ' His platform calls for the repeal of the sales tax and for an honest elec­ tion law. The above is net news, bnt the fact that the said gentle- mau is going to run on the demo cratic ticket, makes tnis an unusual sews item. He is the first demo cratic office seeker we have heard of in a blue moon who was in favor of honest election laws. Jesse Franklin Click. Jesse Franklin Click. 90 died at his home in Hickory Sunday evening at 8 o’clock, death, resulting from the infirmities of age. He had been seriously ill for two weeks. Funeral services were held at the First Baptist Church. Hickory, at 11 o’clock yesterday morning, conduct* ed by his pastor. Rev. R. K. Red- wine, assisted hv Rev. Mr. Cornett, pastor of the First Methodist Chu<-ch, and the body laid to rest in Oakwook cemetery. Surviving are his wife, two daugh­ ters:'Mrs. C F. Stroud. Mocksviile. and Mrs. Avery Hardin, Hickory; one son, Francis A. Click. Washing­ ton. D. C.; eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. One half- brother. H. M. Deadmon, Mocks ville. R. 4, also survives. Mr Clickwasa native of Davie county, but moved to Hickory in 1884. He was editor and publisher of The Hickory Mercury for many years, retiring from the journalistic field only a few years ago. A more extended account of Mr Click’s death will appear in our next Huneycutl Starts New Paper. We have on our desk volume 1, number 1, of The Kernersville News, a new paper which is edited and published by A. C Huneycutt,- of Albemarle. The paper is eight pages, and presents a very neat, appearance A good line of ad vertising was carried, and the paper s filled with much local and countv news. KernersvilIe is a live progressive town, and we see no reason why The News shouldn’t be a success. Tbe Record isn’t going to advise its farmer subscibers as to bow they should vote on the crop con trol bill,- which is to be voted on •Saturday. March t2th.' We know but very little about this bill Senator Josigh Bailey, democrat, writes us that this bill is 'unconsti tutioual, and will pass out upon the first test iu a court. The Na­ tional Grange, the largest farm organization in the United States, is also strongly opposed to thisibill. We don’t kuow just how our farm­ ers will vote. Politics is warming up consider­ ably in Davie county With about seven weeks left in which to file for the various county offices, a number of names have been sug­ gested for the different offices. In the sheriff’s race, it is said there will be a number of aspirants, a- mong them being Jobn J. Allen. J. Frank Hendrix, Alex Tucker and C. C. Smoot, the present in­ cumbent. For clerk of the court the names of a number of ladies throughout the county have been mentioned. Clerk of the Court Hartman hasn’t told us whether he will or will not be a candidate to succeed himself. He has filled this office for the past "ten years, and has made a good clerk. Register of Deeds Turner is not before the people this year, as he was elected in 1936 for a four-year term. Up to this- writing no one has an­ nounced for Representative, al­ though it is predicted that Attor­ ney Brewster Grant, the present Representative, will be 'a candidate to succeed himself. No sugges tions have been made as to who will run for county commissioners, coroner or surveyor. Our present surveyor Is W. F. Stonestreet, and our Coroner is W F. McCulloh. The present board of commission, ers is composed of L. M Tntterow O. L. Harkey, and J. Frank Hen­ drix. . ■ Attention, All Officers AndMembers. Mocksviile Has Bad Fire, Pino News.

Mocksviile, N. C . Feb. 26.—Intro­ duction in Congress of the Boland bill levying a one cent per gallon tax on fuel oil used for heating and power production has brought qnick action on the part of thr oil industry, which sees in the bill a threat to mil­ lions of families According to Grady N, Ward. Chairman of the Davie County Re troleum Industries Committee, “The burden of tbe tax in this state would fall on the home owners of' Nor.th Carolira. More than ten per cent of them have already installed oil burners to obtain the comfort and economy of oil heat The Boland bill would increase their annual fuel bill $21 on the average, or nearly $2 per month for each family using oil heat,”He pointed out that a cent a gal­ lon levy in North Carolina would be in effect a fuel oil sales tax of ap' proximately 12 i per cent (the aver­ age price, in North Carolina being a- bout eight cents a gallon, which is in addition to the three per cent sales tax already in effect on fuel oil. Not only would home owners be hard hit, he contended, but dwellers in apartment houses would be forced to pay increased rent because of in­ creased cost of heating thebuildings. Hotels, he estimated, would in many cases find their fuel bills increased as much as one third. “The proposal to impose a cent gallon tax is not only a big step backward, but is an imposition on tbe intelligence of the American peo pie,” be said. To Explain Farm Bill. We have just' received word that Mr. J. Alvin Propst. frrm the State Office of the Tripple AAA, will be in Davie Countvon Wednesday, March 2. at 2:00 o’clock for u mass meeting of farmers to explain the new ’ farm bill .and the referendum It is very important that you Ieatn tbe provisions of this-bill in order that you may know bow to vote in the referendum.

Mistress of Monterey C> Virginia Stiver* B artlett VSrgSnSa Stivers Bartlett WNUService SYNOPSIS : In Spanish-governed California of 1783 a conflict between Church and State is repre* sented by two. friendly enemies, frail old Fray Jtmjpero Serra, Franciscan mission* ary, and Don Pedro Fages. civil governor. After telling Serra he is sending to Mexico for his wife and son, whom he has not seen lor eight years, he refuses his aid toward founding the Santa Barbara Mission. Dona Eulalia agrees to go to- California, accom* panied by her duenna, Angustias. Don Pe* dro sends for Serra, telling him that two priests are on their way from Mexico with .Eulalia and young Pedro and that be is leaving to meet them. Fages engages a I young Indian girl, Indizuela, as maid tor Eulalia. Eulalia sails from San Bias. It is a desolate trip. From the port of Loreto, a :large cavalcade loaded with Eulalia's party jstarts out for the long overland trip. Eula* :lia. accustomed to luxury and comfort, bit* Iterly regrets having been persuaded to 'come. The two priests. Fray Mariano and I Fray Bartolomeo, call on her and arouse her suspicions as to their genuineness. As the cavalcade stops at various missions, Eulalia hears rumors of the approach of her husband. While Don Pedro plans a great fiesta to welcome his wife. Eulalia plans her costume. Don Pedro welcomes his beautiful wife and young son. Eulalia is toasted as the Queen of the Californias. Oa Oie long journey to Monterey, the reunit­ed couple are royally entertained at the Presidio at San Diego. Eulalia disapproves of the democratic relations of Don Pedro and his people. Pleading weariness In the midst of the feast she goes to bed where Angustias tells her she knows Eulalia is again to become a mother. Don Pedro is disturbed by the developments in the char* acter of the priests and dreads Sara’s dis* appointment in them. CHAPTER X—Contiimed H e Governor put his arms around the other’s shoulders. “Well said, my old one. Well said. My wile will think I have trained you to say those things to her.” As gallant Lieutenant Ortega rode beside La Gobemadora he told her of the Presidio of Santa Barbara, a walled fortress like San Diego, with little whitewashed dwellings for the soldiers and their families, a store, a blacksmith shop, a chapel, and quarters for himself. As they drew near, Eulalia could see the presidio like a little walled city, its whitewashed walls pink in the sunset, its tile roofs red. Again there were cannonades to greet her, the ringing of the chapel bells, and soldiers’ women and children bring­ ing her great armloads of wildflow- ers. That night she sat long at the lieutenant’s lavish table, laughing and' chatting with the company, complimenting the food, applauding the music. “Now that I am leaving Califor­nia so soon," she thought, “I can en­ joy things while I am here. It will be an experience to remember, and to tell about.” Beneath her feet Es- cabellito squirmed in his sleep. Eu­ lalia prodded him, and he was still. “Yes,” she whispered, “I am leaving California—soon.'* CHAPTER XE Along the King’s Highway, where toot of king had never trod, nor royal hoof rung out, Fray Junipero limped slowly. He had been on a long journey, visiting each one of his beloved missions. Happy had been the Journey, pleasant the visit­ ing with his brothers, and gratifying the reports he had heard. The mis­sions were flourishing;. converts, crops and cattle increasing. He felt happy and satisfied. By his side trudged Pio, bearing a yellow umbrella, which shaded the father as well as himself. Pio's arms ached, for the umbrella seemed mysteriously to gain weight as the hours passed. The father, beneath that moving spot of shade, was tracing in retro, spection the first of all these, many steps that had led him through life on his apostolic journeyings. That had been over half a century ago in Mallorca; the jewel of the Balearic Isles in the Mediterranean sea. Seventeen years old, Migud Jose Serra had walked from Us native village, Petra, to the capital city, Palma. His pious parents, amid their tearful farewells, begged him to ride the family burro, but the youthful pilgrim, in his heart al­ready dedicated to the holy San Francisco, shook his head. So he set his rope-soled^ sandals—his al- pagartas—on the road that stretched ahead of him, for. half a century, across half a world. In Palma, doffing the dress of a Petran peasant for the Franciscan habit and cowl, he doffed at the same time the name the peasants had called him. Miguel Jose Serra was gone. Now there was Brother Juniper only. Fray Junipero Serra. San Francisco had a devoted fol­ lower, Junipero,- who would steal from the' altar itself, if by stealing he could feed a hungry mouth. No larder in Asis was safe from his plundering. The good saint railed the little brother, Jester of theLord, saying: “Had I but a whole forest of such Junipers!” So he who traveled from the Mediterranean to the Pacific called bimself Junipero. Now hi* journey was nearly, done. As he paced steadily on, , dazed a little by the sun, and the disregard­ ed emptiness of his body, a beauti­ ful road stretched before him, up, up, into the blue sky, where it termi­ nated in a city of bright mansions.Faint,, sweet sounds of music .drift­ ed from an angelic choir. Fray Junipero fell in the dust-and Taised his arms as one came down the shin­ ing road, one in a brown frock like his own, with a cloud of singing birds about his head. “Mi Padre San Francisco!” he breathed. “Father Francis!” He heard a voice. . “Little Brother Juniper, are' you ready to come home? I am waiting for you—”“Not yet, Father Francis; yet a little while! I have work—work. An­other mission—for Santa Barbara!” “Good, little Brother. But soon. You are aweariedl” Fray Junipero felt the warm earth on hands, face. He stirred and lift­ed himself. The vision was gone. Only a brown road stretched before him, while overhead a fiock of birds circled and cried. Pio’s dark face leaned over him in concern, and he beard the young Indian’s voice as though from a great distance, “little Father—you are aweary] ” He pulled himself erect on trem­ bling limbs and grasped his staff with its .strong smooth shaft and little cross at the top. “Yes, you are aweary, and hun­ gry. Eat, Padre.” He pulled from his pouch some young green onions he had carried from the Mission San Antonio de Padua and held them out to the fa­ ther, who crannied absently at the pungent, slightly withered roots. “A vision—a miracle!” he exult­ ed. “Happy augury! Soon will come my friend, Don Pedro Fages, and By His Side Trudged Pie. two strong brothers of Saint Fran­ cis. Two men of God to help me found the Mission Santa . Barbara. God has heard met My prayers have not been in vain. Santa Bar­bara shall have her mission at last. Praise God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghostln • AU along fiie flowery miles betide the sea, over mountains and through canons, Eulalia wondered about the famed missionary. Fray Junipero. What manner of man was he? Ac­ cording to the fathers at all the mis­ sions they had (visited, he was a sainted miracle worker. Withthese opinions her husband concurred sin­ cerely, and added other praises of his own. Not only was he a saint, but he was a man- among men, strong, fearless, resourceful; un­ complaining in the midst of suffer­ ing. In short, the Governor gave him a SoldiertSmerita in one phrase —a good campaigner. In spite of all this, Eulalia felt that he withheld some opinion of the padre, and was puzzled to. know what it might be. Now that they were approaching Monterey, and she woidd perhaps meet the Padre Presidente before night, she set her­ self to discover her husband’s real opinion of him. ' “Tell me, Pedro,” she asked ten­ tatively, "more about Padre Serra. I have heard much ,«f him. even in Mexico City. He seems to be the most important person in California, apart fromyourself, my dear.' I shall have to.associate with him, perhaps confess to him. What is he like?” The Governor hesitated and plucked reflectively at his beard; “Stop doing .thatl”. ordered the lady. "When you do that I know you are thinking what you-will say instead of saying it' outright.” v “Well,” he said, but still caress­ ing hisbeard, “I usually' think be­ fore I speak. And doing this helps me to think. You have heard all I can say about Padre Serra. I like him, admire him. We are friends— good friends. And- we are enemies.” “Enemies — hum," said 'EidaUa stroking an eyebrow with her. little finger. The Governor leaned- m r his horse’s neck and caught her hand. "Don’t do that!” he laughed. “When you do that I know you are thinking what you are going to say, and—" Eulalia laughed. “But it helps me think,". she mocked. The Governor 3till held her hand. How dear, how charming she could be, thought he.“So you are enemies. Why?” “My dear, Church and State have ever been enemies. Their , aims are too widely apart for them to work together, sympathetically. That is especially true in California. The aim of the Crown—the ' State—in California is, frankly, the acquiring and holding of this country, and pro­ tecting it from other acquisitive na­ tions—England, Russia. The aims of the Church are the conversion of the heathen.” He loosed her hand absently and pulled his beard. “And—” prompted Eulalia. “I, representing the State, must do my duty. I must see that the Church does nothing to jeopardize the Crown’s holdings. Father Serra is the church in. California.: He would like to see all the soldiers sent out of the province, and be left here with the rest of the Fran­ ciscans, aloneNto work things out his own way.” Eulalia pricked up her ears. “He wishes the soldiery away from the province?” “He does.” "And you?” “My dear, he would do anything to get me away from here. I be­ lieve he would stop at nothing under the sun to rid California of myper- nicious influence.” “Ah,” said Eulalia, deep in thought. “He did rid himself of me once, you . remember. Humph! The charges he made against met And the terrible journey he made, sick and suffering as he was, to present them to the Viceroy. He nearly died, with his crippled leg. But his belief in what he was doing led him on, successfully, that time. I ad­ mire him. On my soul, I do.” The Governor laughed.“But I came back.” Eulalia’s mind was working rap­ idly. So the Padre Presidente was that manner of man! One strong in belief in his duty—but one who would stop at nothing, as the Gov­ ernor had said, to gain his ends in regard to forwarding the Church in California. And he believed Pedro Fages stood in the way of complete tri­ umph for the Church, therefore- Pedro Fages must leave California; Serra had accomplished that once— it might—be— “A strange man,” she said aloud. "But I have made up my mind that we are going to be friends. Yes, good friends. He should be a com­ fort to me in this strange land.” The Governor frowned doubtfully, then reached for his wife’s hand again, “Splendid!” he, cried heartily, squeezing her fingers. “Perhaps you can change his opinion of your hus­ band. Then we can all live here happily, you and I, and all the chil­ dren, in California for the rest of our lives!” Sie withdrew her fingers. "Perhaps,” she said softly, "per­ haps I can.” ' Pedro the Younger and EscabeI- Iito came, dashing to the Governor’s side. ttFather!" shouted Pedro breath­lessly. "Look ahead! See,' there is something strange moving down the road! What do you suppose it is, wild Indians?” . “Al, my child, I almost wish for your sake we would meet some wild Indians. Where is this apparition?” Young Pedro jumped up in his stirrups, “See—down there at the turn. Something yellow—” “Yellow?” The Governor leaned forward; "Ah, yes, I see. I know who it is. It’s Fray Junipero, and Pio carrying his yellow umbrella! Andale! We will overtake him.” ' Fray Junipero, lost in unearthly dreams, was startled at the sound of hoof-beats so near him, and moved off the royal road hastily as the gay party of riders dashed toward him. The Governor reined in his mount, which reared upright on quivering haunches, and faced the missionary. “Hail, Father!” he cried, waving his hat. Then he dismounted hast­ ily-Fray Junipero blinked, ana said softly, “Ah, your Excellency!” With an impulsive gesture Fages put both hands on the monk’s shoul­ders. The-face, though browned and weather-beaten, gave the impres­ sion of being pale and wan. The deep-lines were deeper, the silver tonsure whiter. Beneath his hands he could feel the shoulders, in their hot coarse brown covering, so bent, so thin, trembling. But it was Juni­ pero Serra’s eyes that startled him. Fiery with strange inner fires, they burned in his bony skull, not meet­ ing the Governor’s intent look, but darting avidly among the company of riders on the camonio. “My brothers . . . my men of God . . . ” he murmured, “O gra­ cious Excellency, where are the an­swers to my prayer?” Pedro Fages dropped his hands. He half turned from the missionary, avoiding his searching look. For a brief second he stood tense, still, his hand on the hilt of his sword. Then he flung his head up abruptly."Father Junipero . ..." he be­ gan bravely. But Junipero Serra interrupted him. "Don Pedro!" he cried In a trem­ bling voice, holding out his hands fearfully. “Don’t tell me . . . but I had a vision . . - a promise! Ah, praise to God on high! There they are! Ai, ai, my Brothers! Come here, closer! Let me see you . . . touch you! You are holy men, an answer to prayer!” He stumbled to­ ward Mariano Rubi and Bartolome Gili holding out his arms, tears streaming down his cheeks. The two did not move, but stood as though stricken in their tracks. Serra threw his arms about them, looked into their sullen faces and saw only good there. “Alleluja!” he chanted, “Ave Ma­ ria Purisima! The prayers of Junt pero Serra are answered!” Still the two stood dumbly. Rubi’t face was red with a guilty flush, while Gili grew pale; they too, like the Governor, avoided the fires oi his eyes. In his joy, the fervid missionary noticed none of these things. He looked about him for the Governor. "Ah, forgive me, my son, for not greeting you!" he cried. "You and all your party have my blessing!" La Gobemadora was staring at him. Then she slipped carefully from her horse and walked to the priest. For a moment she measured him with a look, then her eyes dropped. Here was a man, a little man, but he towered toward Heavens and her eyes could not measure his stature. Her heart pounded. Her knees weak­ ened, and almost' against her will she found herself lmeeling before him. • ' _ • "It is my wife," she'heard her husband say. (TO BE CONTINUED) Brittany, in Ancient Times Known as ' Armorica, Dates Back to Fifth Century Bretaigne, or Brittany, is situated on the large triangular peninsula which forms the northwestern ex­ tremity of France. In ancient times it was known as Armorica, and was inhabited by a confederation of in­ dependent Celtic tribes. It received the name Brittany, or Little Britain, about the middle of the Fifth cen­ tury, on account-of the settlement of numerous colonies from Great Britain, driven there by the Anglo- Saxon invasion. Under Charlemagne, states a writer in the Cleveland Plain Deal­ er, the Franks conquered the coun­ try,’"but the successors of this king exercising their sovereignty but feebly, the Breton princes regained and hdd the form. and- privileges of independence. The feudal lords of the province always regarded one of their number as their chief, because of his superior strength, btit otherwise the fiefs of the nobles were each held independent bf the others. About the middle of the Twelfth, cehtiiry one of these nobles succeeded in bringing all the coun­ try under his control and called, it the County of Brittany.' It was the daughter of this count, Constance, who married Geoffrey Plantagenet,: the third son of Henry I of England, and was the mother of little Prince Arthur who was so cruelly mur­ dered by his uncle, ICing John of England. Readers erf Shakespeare’s play, "King John,” are familiar with the story. Ilie stepsister of Arthur, Alice, was married to Pi­ erre de Dreux, who .took the title ot duke of Brittany and became the founder of a line which held control of the counfry, under the protection of France, until the latter part of the Fifteenth century. In 1491 the male line had become extinct, and the heiress, of the ducal estates, Anne of Brittany, was wedded to Charles VJIIt King ot France, thus attaching the duchy to the-property of the. French; crown. In 1532 the province was formally united to France. It retained a separate par­ liament, however, until the Froich revolution. Dnrathm of GIaeiaI Period It has been estimated that ' the duration:of the glacial period in the United States could- not have been much less, than 500,000. years, and it, is probable that the ice retreated from northern United StatM at least 25,000 years ago. Historic Hbaxes By ELMO SCOTT WATSON' OVestem Newspaper Union. . T h e G old M aichlne A LCHEMY, the . professed art of transmuting baser metals imto gold, has been one of man’s dreams, for ages. But it remained for a Cbnnecticut Yankee to give it a practical application which, meta­phorically speaking, lined his pock­ ets with $200,000 worth of gold' ob­ tained from credulous investors in his “gold accumulator.” This was the invention of Pres­ cott Ford Jernegan, once a minis­ ter of Middletown, Conn., who in­ terested Arthur W. Ryan, a jeweler, in his plan for extracting gold from sea water. In February, 1897, Jer­ negan lowered into. Narraganset bay in Rhode Island, liis “gold accumu­lator,” a flat box containing a small battery, quicksilver and other chemicals and constructed so that the sea water flowed over the quick­ silver. When the box was raised 24 hours later what appeared , to be gold was discovered in place of the quicksilver and the jeweler’s tests proved to his satisfaction that it was real gold—$2 worth. So he joined ’ with Jerhegan' in forming - a company and ' selling $500,000 in stock. A plant was built at Lubec, Maine, and the two "ac­ cumulators” began bringing up increasing amounts of gold This went on for more than a year. Then in July, 1898, Jernegan went to Eu­ rope and at the same time an em­ ployee named Charles E. Fisher disappeared. The "accumulators” ceased to produce gold, for the very good reason that Fisher, who was a professional diver, had been placing the precious metal in them before they were brought to the surface. When the fraud was exposed, the directors of the company who had. been made victims of the fake, gave back the profits they had made and eventually the stock­ holders recovered abotit 30 per cent of their investment.. There was some talk of trying to extra­ dite Jernegan from Europe, where he was living off the $200,000 he had obtained from investors, but nothing ever came of it. • • • N atu re F a k er P a r Excellence TpHE modern champion of all writ- ers of nature fakes was un­doubtedly "Lester Green,” of Pros­ pect, Conn. No matter how pre­ posterous his yarns, which several metropolitan newspapers printed for the amusement of their readers, there have always been some peo­ ple who have believed them. When he told how a setting of hen’s eggs, which he had found in a block of ice taken from a flooded meadow, hatched out chickens cov­ ered with fur instead of feathers, a Canadian farmer wrote to : him and wanted to buy some.. When h ^ declared he had dis­ covered the fluid responsible for the curl in pigs’ tails and his wife had obtained beautiful permanent waves by rubbing it on her.hair, "Mrs. Green” was flooded with requests from women for samples of this magic fluid. When he told of spraying his apple trees with glue, which not only pre­ vented the apples from falling but also preserved them in a fresh con­ dition on the trees throughout the winter, both American and Canadi­ an glue manufacturers wrote to ask what kind of glue he used, hoping to get a good ‘testimonial." One Boston : firm *even, sent a repre­ sentative to Prospect to investigate his stunt. And these are only a very few ef the marvelous achievements of "Lester Green” who was, by the way, the brain child of C. Louis Mortison, Prospect correspondent for tiie Waterbury <Conn.) Repub- lican-American.• • * * S p ectrist P o etty r \ URING the second decade of •-f the present century there was a sudden growth of new "schools” of poetry and art, among them such' ciilts as Futurism, Vorticism, Cub­ ism, Dadaism and Polyphonic Prose. So in 1916 when the publication of “Spectra: a Book of Poetic Ex­ periments” was announced, it was hailed with delight by the “eman­cipated souls” who-were struggling for new methods of self-expression. The authors of this volume were "Anne Knish” and.“Emanuel Moiv gan” and immediately they had a host of imitators who wrote the new. Spectrist poetry. Nobody-could un­ derstand it, of course, but that made it seem all the more impor-. tant. Then the whole movement was re­vealed as a hoax which had been fathered by two authentic poets, Witter Bynner and Arthur Davisson Ficke, who used this method to sat­ irize the current fad in new poetic cults. But, in a sense, the joke was on them. For those who had been duped and had become dev* otees of “Spectrism”, insisted upon continuing, to write their verses in that form and , to< perpetuate1 the new "movement," winch still flour­ ished among some of America's intelligentsia.

TIPSto Crardeners Good Start Important THE value of a garden plant, vegetable or flower, depends greatly upon the start it gets; so give your seedlings ample care. Begin cultivation as 'soon as rows are visible, if soil is not wet. Work close to the small plants, cultivating shallower as they grow, to avoid injury to root growth. Cultivate often. Irrigating should not be neces­ sary the first week or ten days after seeds have sprouted. Harold Coulter, vegetable expert, advises that if the ground is baked bard and sprouts do not appear, the surface of the soil may be dis­ turbed slightly with a rake. Small seedlings may be irri­gated in two ways: Mark a dial- low trench about four inches from the row and run it full of water; or, usmg a fine spray, apply wa­ ter from directly above the plants. Watering is most effective when done shortly after cultivation. The best time for irrigation is late afternoon or evening. Small plants should be thinned as directed on seed packets.

It purs him under the yoke of Federal regimentation. It enslaves him to bureaucracy. It deprives him of his accustomed li­ berties. Itteilshim how much of his own land he can plant in desig­ nated crops. And to a degree, it prescribes what he can not do with the acreage which his government does not allow him to plant in speci* tied crops. The bill ai30 does something for the Federal government. It increases its absolutisms—grim enemy of democracy. It enlarges its totalitarian trou­ bles; It augments its dictatorial powers. And, consequently, of course, the bill "commits the Federal govern ment to an indefinite and unpredic­ table volume of loins and losses,” as The New York Times puts it. Wheat, corn, cotton, tobacco and rice farmers are supposed, en masse, to be for this measure. But tbe National Grange, one of the largest and most powerful of the agricultural organizations, is op­ posed to it. and to it, and became very militant in its opposition. There is no assurance that the ex­ pert? of the' Department of Agri­ culture arc foolishly enthusias about it. Many of them hoid their breath in contemplating what it may in­ volve. No doubt, manv members of Con­ gress who voted for it never read the bill, and are skeptical of its re­ sult?. But they thought it expedient, at any rate, to "do somet.ning for the farmer.” Lots of congressional con* tests come off this year. Besides, a National election will be bobbing up in 1940. It is import­ ant for parties aha for candidates to “•do something for tbe former.” In principle?, the measure gives to the Federal government authority to "control” crops. It is noteworthy, however, that by this procedure, the government may not control crops at all. The bill merely gives Washington the right to restrict acreage. - And Restricted Acreage Is In No SenseTheEqaivalent Of Restricted Production. We have repeated that statement so frequently that it has by this time become trivia, and yet the 'fact of the statement is fundamental and unchallengeable. Tbe Federalgovernmentmay tell a cotton farmer that if he planted 15 acres to cotton last year, he can plant oqlp tea this year if he wants to share in its subsidies. ' But'that, in no wise, guarantees that this same farmer will not pro­ duce as much cotton on the 10 as he did on the 15, and reap the largess of the government to boot. . A new feature'of the bill consists in making government loans manda­ tory inBtead of discretionary. - If wheat, corn and cotton farmers produce in excess of a "normal” de - !hand, or if the price offered for such productions is lees than an agreed-upon percentage of the. 1909- 1914 purchasing power, the loans are obligatory upon tbe government. These loans are to'be not less than 52 and not more than 75 per cent of the "party”*thus established. . The Federal government is, there­ fore, committing itself to a lending spree of indefinite and incalculable range. It pitches itself in the dark in going into this business on this business on this scale. It ia obvious that, whatever may be the many defects in its proce­ dures and instrumentations, the bill is assailable for .the assumption from which it proceeds. That assumption is that our agri< cultural troubles in he nation arise solely from production. This.newspaper has never admit­ ted the validity 'of that claim, v On the other hand,- we have insist* ed and.repeat, that the main issue is in getting these productions consun ed. The difficulty is. thereifore, largely, one of consumption. The,new farm bill, which in maiiy. essentials is simply the old AAA bill rerast and refurnished, fails even to resognize this npint.-Charlotte Ob­ server.; . '’ -V .?:.;' .

When every farmer in tbe Sontb shall eat bread from his own fields and meat from bis own pastures, and disturbed bv no creditor and, enslaved bv no debt shall sit amid his teeming gardens, and orchards and vineyards, and dairies, and barnyards, pitching his crops in his own wisdom, and growing them in independence, making cotton his clean surplus, and selling it in his own time, and in bis chosen market and not at a master's bnilding, get­ ting bis pay in cash and not in a receipted mortgage that discharges his debt but does not restore his freedom—then shall be breaking the. fulness of onr day day. Great is -King Cotton! But to lie at his feet while the usurer and grain raiser bind ns In subjection, is to invite the contempt of man and the reproach of God. But to stand up before him and amid grain crops and smokehouses wrest from him tbe magna charta ot onr independence, and to establish in his name an ample and diversified agricuture, that shall honor him while it en.iches us—This is to car­ ry us as far in tbe way of happi­ ness and independence as the farm­ er, working in the richest fields, can carry any people.

The President thought industry and wealth could be taxed: enough so government could use the money to create jobs until prosperity ret nmed. He made the idea of ’‘soaking the rich” popular. Bnt it didn’t work and business has sagged. industry is the only thing that can create productive employment. But investors nave little incentive to take tbe risk of placing money in new enterprises if possibe gains must bear so heavy a burden of tax­ ation, while excessive regulation impairs the initiative of manage­ ment. Wage earners who cheer for Mr. Roosevelt’s tax plans have been fooling themselves, and hurting themselves. Mr: Roosevelt now admits that these tax laws must be changed so business will be free to expand and make more jobs. Some workers and even some congress­ men man not. know why- he was wrong and why the tax laws would not work, but instead stifled busi­ ness. Naturally, if enongh people un derstand what is wrong with these taxes and demand, in one way or another, that they be changed, the government will have to revise them. Then business car go ahead with­ out these nandcnffs and without fear. That would make things much better for everybody who deT pends on work.—Swiped. Beasley Announces For Congress. MonToe' .

North- CaroMna farmers are bet­ ter prepared for the new farm law than others, because ilex tends for the first time tbe principle of the Bankhead Act and the Kerr-Smith Act to. national staple crops—that is strict compulsory control with heavy penalties for production in excess of one’s allotment. The penalties are: •„ Cottopj ,i Iwo- cents per; pound -- Flue’cured tobacco—three - cents pound pound, Burley tobacco two cents per pound. Wheat- fifteen cents per bushel. Corn—fifteen cents per bushel ,- To' these penalties is added de­ nial of soil conservation and/- land diversion benefits: - Non co-operat­ ors wil) hot participate in the $500 ,- 090,000 money distribution. The-Snpreme Court held—ih the AAA (BiltterCase) — that the Con­ gress does npt have power to set up compulsory control Tbe decis- ion'was6 to 3 Two of the six have retired. But the dissenting three upheld the act on the ground that it was not. compulsory. This, would indicate that the present act would be held to. be unconstitution­ al 7 to 2 at best. There are those, however, who expect further Chan­ ges in the Cohrt itself and in the minds of the membors. We may. be assured now of only one Justice | for upholding the act—Mr. Justice Black: But we can never be fully assured how any man will decide anything. I do not profess to say how Mrf Justice Blade will decide. Farmers taking-benefits of the act will not be allowed to employ their!' diverted acres to product crops: in< competition with other farmers. : That is, one whose to bacco acreage is reduced will - not be allowed to increase his commer­ cial corn or wheat or cotton crops One whose cotton. is reduced will not be allowed to increase his- to­ bacco or j other '-commercial crop It is .a . strict, regimentation under heavy, penaltv. ’ Tb get Federal farm benefits one most 'obey ^Fed­ eral command, and pay penalties besides on excess production. I North Carolina’s: cotton quota will he reduced.by 250',000 bales— the crop being limited to 520,000 bales. North Carolina’s bright tobacco quota will, so-it is estimated- by the antborities, be reduced by 90 ,- 000 ,000 ' pound3. Figure for yourself how many people this will throw out of work, or how much it will reduce (or, if yon choose, increase) farm income. Myestimate is (on present prices) $32,000,000 loss for North Catolina farmers. Cotton is on the way out—oth r. nations have taken a large part - cf Our foreign market.-1 have thought that our best course was to expand out production of. bogs, chickens, sheep, beef cattle, milk and butter, But it cannot tie done under this act. :'*It “ freezes” our farm set-up as is.'fi’ We must, come w hat' may, depend on cotton and tobacco. North Carolina fanners are in excellent position to develop a great niarket in bogs, poultry and- dairy products. They are Umck''nearer to tbe national market than the average. But under this law they cannot do this :. When and if farmers in other lands learn to produce onr type of tobacco, .or a fair substitute for it the tobacco farmer will go the way the Cottorr farm dr'has' gone. At least half of our.^ North Carolina tobacco is soldito other nations. - ? Then what will we do? The fanners will vote on the bill —the cotton farmers as a whole, the tobacco farmers by type as' a whole respectively.

I am not trying to influence the election—it is a matter for tbe far­ mers. I consider that in . voting against the measure I have done all that I should do. I expect the election to carry Let. each farm­ er vote as he thinks best. Allotments are based .on the past production of tobacco." with some allowances,' and on the acreage planted in cotton during the three year period immediately - preceding the present year.. Farmers whose production ,of fluecured tobacco was not in excess of 3,200 pounds will be allowed to produce the same amount^as here tofore without penalty p r'depriva­ tion. Farmers whose production of burley tobacco was not in- ex cess of 2 4 0 0 pounds will, be al­ lowed to produce the same, amount as heretofore without penalty or de­ privation ■ As to cotton, the*ontside limit cf acreage free of penally is five acres, but farmers wbo cultivated less than five acres in 1936 or 1937 wi'’ be held to tbe acreage cultivated in those years. That is, the big farmer remains a big., farmer, tbe little farmer re­ mains a little farmer, the tenant farmer remains a tenant' farmer un­ less he is squeezed out in the- con­ traction of the acreage.'- ’ There will ne less tobacco to gather and less cotton to pick- and ,therefore more peOple looking for work Land that has allotments- will have allotments.

S. A. (From Biblical Reccrder ) The present" relief program of tbe nationai- adminietration is only temporary expedient. It was put forward as such in the. first instance; its purpose was; to tide over' the period , of depression, and it was ex- pected that within a year, or two years at most, industry woald need absorb - th e unemployed laborers. Thathope has often been deferred and the heart ofi'fhe American has as often !been made sick. A year ago thp mayors of onr ten largest eitiea went to Washington and told the! Chief Executive and Congress tbat their millions of idle must have relief or starve. Congress voted the relief. Today there are more idle laborers in thofe cities than a year ago, and again Mayor La Guardia of New York, after a visit to President Roosevelt announces that New York unemployed willneed $180.000 000 this year to keep the wolf from the door; that the municipality will pay 22 per cent of this and look to the Federal Government for the re­ mainder. Of course. Congress will vote the amount asked. Even Mr. Lamont of the Morgan Company, e -harp critic of tbe New Deal, says that :ho one most he allowed to starve If unemployment and need areas great in tbe ether ten big citiesasinNew York.- the amount needed for the ten cities will be a full billion dollars. AU this was predicted a year ago. and it may as confidently be predicted that the condition and need will be .as great a year from now. It is plain tbat our present relief -program is not bringing permanent relief. What is the matter? William F. Dodd. fortner Ambassador to Get- many.'seems to have correctly- Ir- tustfiea of great numbers of Iaboi- ers from the farms to the big ci its to make goods for the markets of othercauntiea when those markets were’calling for. .Our goods. Now. when we are no longer lending those countries money to buy our goods, they have ceased to buy them. Few­ er goods are called for and fewer la­ borers can produce them; in additior, most of our manufacturing plantt bave .found machines that can do the work of many laborers As a result of both these causes, many laborers have been dismissed and are now-among the unemployed. -The fewer laborers and the machined are well able to make all the manufac­ tured products that tbe people of the United States can use or buy. When is this condition likely to end? . No one has venturned a pre­ diction. But any one can see that so long as it continues there will be ten million or more of tbe unemploj- ed to be fed by public relief mea sures. Here is something to think of and to count a great blessing comirg from our Heavenly Father. The fathers of this' country can easily tnake enough cotton, corn, wheat oats, rye, hay, peanuts, beef, leather, pork, chickens, ..eggs, milk; butter, cheese, potatoes of both kinds, sheep, wool, etc., that our people can use. and have much to use In foreign trade. ;': Our railroads, trucks, stean - boats, a n d such: instruments of transportation can easily distribute alf these products, as well as others tv be named. Our manufacturing industries can make-all the cotton and Woolens goods we need for doth- ing'and all the‘shoes and bats for men and women; others, all tne steel we need for plows and hoes'and axes; others can. build all the houses and other buildings! we heed. Still Others can teach in our schools, and colleges and produce our newspapers and do wbat they are or pay the. price. told to do, One refreshing and encouraging thing about tbe controversy over the Panay bombing; Japan actually re­ membered the incident.

This newspaner has never under­ stood why it was necessary for the Administration «o often to change its mind and shift it,< position on -various issues of importance within the last five years. Manifestly, this has been among the chief quarrels that could be fair­ ly picked with those in political leadership. And there seems to be no end , of it. Here, for example, Was Treasury Secretary Morgenthan recently of. ficiallv remarking that, in his judg­ ment, there was no reason to become alarmed over the relief problem and that in his view ,the WPA could P t-along very well with this res­ ponsibility on the 'allowance origin­ ally meted ont by Congress for Its purposes. But now he completely changes his tune. With brutal, if not alarming frankness, Mr. Morgenthau told the Honse Appropriations Committee which was considering a new re­ quested allocation of $250,000,000 for this purpose that the current recession was ‘one of the mast rapid de. lines in business that has ever been experienced in ihe history of tbe country.” H e'added tbat tbe present economic situation is “most acute.’; 1 One wonders what’s back of this Sorely, the situation in this field has not changed from one deserving no cause for worry oniv a few days ago to one that now must be regard­ ed by Mr. Morgentban as “ mrist acute.” S Wh'-. therefore, should such, a revcisal of his attitnle toward the relief issne be so suddenly enacted? It is not enough to say tbat “we had hopes that this ' thing wotild get better and that we would not need tbe money <N,>w we are right np against the gun and we do need the money.” —Charlotte Observer.

(NDiANA EstJbhshvd 1867 VIRGINIA STIVERS BARTLETT e VVttlnia Stivers Bartlett : W M tIS e rv lw ' SYNOPSIS IA Spanish-governed California of 1783 a conflict between Church and State Is repre­sented by two friendly enemies, frail old FTay Jimipero Serra, Franciscan mission­ary. and Don Pedro Fages, civil governor. After telling SerTa he is sending to Uexico for bis wife and son. whom be has not seen for eight years, he refuses his aid toward founding die Santa Barbara M ission—Dona Eulalia agrees to go to California, accom­panied by her duenna. Angustias. Don Pe­dro sends for Serra1 telling him that two priests are on their way from Mexico with Eulalia and young Pedro and that he is leaving to meet them. Fages engages , a young Indian girl. Indizuela, as maid for Eulalia. Eulalia sails from San Bias. It is a desolate trip. From the port of Loreto, a large cavalcade loaded with Eulalia's party starts out for the long overland trip. Eula­lia. accustomed to luxury and comfort, bit­terly regrets having' been persuaded to come. The two priests. Fray Mariano and Fray Bartolomeo, call on her and arouse her suspicions as to their genuineness. As the cavalcade stops at various missions, Eulalia hears rumors of the approach of her husband. While Don Pedro plans a great fiesta to welcome his wife, 'Eulalia plans her costume. Don Pedro welcomes his beautiful wife and young son. Eulalia is toasted as the Queen of the Califomias. On the long journey to Monterey, the reunit­ed couple are royally entertained at the Presidio at San Diego. Eulalia disapproves of the democratic relations of Don Pedro and bis people. Pleading weariness In the midst of the feast she goes to bed where Angustias tells her she knows Eidalia is again to become a mother. Don Pedro is disturbed by the developments In the char­acter of the priests and dreads Serra's dis­appointment in them. Umping from mis­sion to mission. Father Serra has a vision of St. Francis and tells his saintly master that he will be ready to join him when Santa Barbara Mission is founded. Meanwhile Eulalia finds there is a conflict between Serra and Don Pedro and plans to use the priest as an ally. CHAPTER XI—Continued “Ah, La Gobernadora,” said the priest, “your prayers are answered too, Don Pedro.” His words to her were simple, a welcome, a blessing. Then she was on her mount again. Dimly she heard Pedrito presented to the padre, and others talking. But she was silent, as though under a spell. “Good Father,” the Governor was saying, “you must mount my horse and we will all ride into Monterey together. Come, up with you.” Fray Junipero drew back. “Ah, my son, you know I never ride. I still have the legs God gave me, though one of them is iiot very good.” The Governor threw his reins to a body-servant. “Then with your permission, Pad­ re, I will walk with you.” “Yes, yes. And my two Brothers- in-God! Where are you, my Broth­ ers?” He looked around him. The two friars who were muttering to each other joined him with sancti­ monious smiles. Again Serra put his arms about them. “We will walk together, this way, Brothers, I the older in the center, with two strong good young trees like yourselves to lean against, eh?” he asked delight­ edly. The others acquiesced in em­ barrassment. Young Pedro slipped his hand into his father’s and walked beside him. The Governor looked at his ilady, so still and white on her white horse. “My dear,” he began. She smiled at him, but addressed the priest. “I too, would walk with you? Rev­ erence, but,” laying a hand on her heart with a dignified, significant gesture, “you see how it is: with me.’,’ The priest returned her smile and raised a hand to her. “But I will follow slowly behind you, if I may.” CHAPTER XH The Governor’s lady sat in a great hand-made chair of native syca­ more wood on the portal of her new home, basking in the warm sun­ shine. Her feet rested on Escabel- lito, who lay eying Chichi, tethered to one of the. upright logs that sup­ ported the thatched roof of the por­ tal. From within the house came sounds of bustle and fuss, and An­ gustias' exasperated voice as she and the maids, with the help of a couple of Indian girls, strove to dis­pose of the contents of Eulalia’s trunks and chests which crowded the small house. The arrival had been exciting. For some time before they, Padre. Ser- ra, the Governor, young Pedro and herself, had. reached the presidio, they could , hear bells ringing, vol­ leys of shots, singing. As they drew nearer they could see moving fig­ ures, black in the glow from great bonfires built in the center and four corners of Oie waited presidio. It was all too confusing for her to get any definite impressionsof the place- or of the people that crowded about her. Only two personalities re­ mained with her.: One was a round, dark, officious IitHe man, presented; by her husband as Capitan Mlcolas Soler. The other was an Indian .girl; about fifteen, who was await­ ing them in the house. The girl had' glanced casually' at La Gober­ nadora,' then, kept her eyed on the Governor. He had patted her head and called her Indizuela. Eulalia ,frowned and kicked Es- cabellitp slightly as he slapped Chi­chi, who was reaching tentative ex­ ploratory fingers toward the small Indian's thatch of long Bair. Indizuela. Um-m. Bather pretty. Some Spanish blood in her back­ ground undoubtedly. She would have to inquire, very carefully, about In­ dizuela. At least she was.adequate- Iy clothed. La Gobernadora sighed and stared out at the presidio bask­ ing in the spring sun. “So this is the place,” she reflect­ed. “This is the Royal Presidio of San Carlos de Monterey. That hut in the center of the enclosure is ho doubt the royal chapeL I can hardly believe there were manifes­tations of joy and thanksgiving when this place was founded or that bells rang, masses were celebrated and congratulations published all over Spain and Mexico.” As Eulalia gazed broodlngly across the bay, she knew, sudden­ ly, that this was the first of many hours she would pass so. Hours when she would strain her eyes fu- tilely, watching the bay of Monte­ rey, hoping for a ship to arrive with news from the world, and fresh faces, longing for a break in the deadly monotony of life in the Royal Presidio of Monterey. . “No!” she exclaimed so suddenly that Escabellito jumped. She pushed him aside with her foot; 'and stood, hands clenched at her sides. “No! I will not live the rest of my life like a captive in chains, or a wild bird caged! I will escape.” She went into .the house. After the blaze of sun shining on the sandy parade-ground before her house, and on the gleaming white­ wash of the walls and houses she was blinded for a moment. When vision returned she paced slowly through the six rooms of the Gov­ernor’s palace. She passed down the hall' and looked into the dining-room, long, low and narrow, with a hand-made / Fray lnnipero Drew Back. sideboard, table, benches, and one window looking out into the kitchen garden. Next the dining-room, a bedroom, Angustias'; across the hall a chamber for young Pedro, and another for the Governor and his lady. She went into her bedchamber and found Angustias, her maids and the Indian girls in a state of con­fusion. “Ah, my lady!” exclaimed the du- ena, “if you could only give me some word of advice I Where shall I put this stuff? There isn’t room iit the house for it all.” “Angustias,” said- Eulalia, her voice trembling, ‘I can’t tell you what to do. It seems to me w* shall have to live here like a soldier’s fam­ ily.' Do our cooking in the middle of the floor, eat with our hands, and throw scraps to the dogs. The Gov­ernor’s palace, indeed! It is only fit for a soldier’s woman, and her brood of dirty brats.” Angustias saw the need for firm action.. ‘I admit it isn’t much of a place,” she said, beginning to stir about briskly. “But we will do the best we can. Your, clothes of course, can remain in the chests, and they can be pushed back against the walls.” She began pulling things about. “And these can go in the sala, and these in the dining-room, and—”‘Ai, ai, Angustias! Stop it! Listen. Unpack only, the clothes that I need for the present. As for. the other things, leave them alone. What is the use of unpacking them? I will not be here long.”Angustias stopped. “What do you mean, nina? ':Not be here long?”. She stepped over and looked anx­ iously into her mistress’ face. “Do you-feel ill? Do you feel that you are going - to—to die? When your time comes?” Eulalu laughed nervously. “No; no. Forget what I said. I am hot afraid I am going to die. Make things as comfortable as you can, my good Angustias, for the present.” She patted tHfe anxious woman on the shoulder and walked out into the sunshine again. She became aware of a little flur­ ry among the soldiers at the gate. A man was riding into the enclos­ ure, his clothes and horse a bright spot of moving color. Across the parade-ground he moved toward the palacio, "his mount curveting and caracoling spiritedly. He pulled up before the lady in the big chair and, swinging off his hat, bowed low, much to her surprise. Then she rec­ ognized him. It was Capitan Nicolas - Soler, whose face she remembered from the evening before. He was all smiles and bows, and made not an unhandsome figure in his gay clothes, raiment which looked rath­ er strange to Eidalia as she had not been in California long enough to become acquainted with the singu­ lar and characteristic style the Cal­ ifornian gentlemen had adopted. “Greetings to you, Senora la Gob­ ernadora!” he cried. “ I know your Excellency is not receiving visitors as yet, but I have made so bold as to come and call nevertheless. You will not be so unkind as to send me away?” Eulalia smiled. “If it is the custom of ladies in California to receive early visits from gentlemen while their hus­ bands are busy, I suppose you may, Capitan Soler.” He dismounted and walked toward her. He was short and broad for his height, and. Eulalia had a rapid impression that he looked like a fighting rooster, with enormous sil­ver spurs springing from his heels like a game-cock’s. Again he bowed ceremoniously and kissed her hand. Then, when the lady gave him permission, he sat near her feet and leaned against a post. “I do not know what the customs of the ladies are in California,” he said chattily. “Anything that you may do, any precedent you may es­ tablish, will be followed by all the women in the province. For you are the First Lady, and the officers’ wives will follow you. Oh, of course, they are ladies, too. Little ladies. You are a grand lady. And now California society will be changed. And if I have helped you make it a social rule that 'poor bachelor offi­ cers may call on the ladies while their husbands are away, I think that is very nice.” Eulalia was pleased. “I think you put a great responsibility upon me,” she said charmingly. “But I must admit I have no social aspirations toward California. It would be an empty honor to be social leader over some Indian girls—and some soldiers’ women.” “Ah, Senora la Gobernadora, but you will be surprised at the social life that goes on here!” Eulalia raised her brows. “I will indeed. Is it possible? What is there to do?” “Well, we have picnics and bar­becues in the woods around us here; or on the beach, close by, is a place where there are mussels and clams to be gathered. We go there, the Indians gather the shellfish, and we cook and eat them. Then we have parties in the different little houses—dancing, music. Or we vis­ it the Presidio of Santa Barbara or of San Francisco, and have fiestas. Ah, indeed,” he concluded with a shade of sarcasm, “we are quite gay.” Eulalia looked at him in surprise. Was it possible'that he was actually pleased with such bucolic pleas­ures? “But no receptions, no theaters, no opera—no music?” she asked. “Certainly not, Senora la Gober­ nadora! Why, Senorat I do not be­ lieve you realize that this”—and he waved his hand about the presidio —“is all there is to the capital of California.” “I don’t believe I 'do, Capitan Soler. No, I’m very sure I do not. I am still expecting to see some­ thing that looks like a capital city.” Soler leaned closer to her and lowered his voice. “You do not like California.” Eulalia started, but he went on rapidly. .“No, you do not like California, I can see that. And I do not blame you. It is no place for a lady of your culture or your beauty, one used to the life you have had. It is cruel for the King to insist that the Governor should be a family man, and bring his wife to this country-” A trumpet called across the pre­ sidio. The great gates swung open and the Governor of the Californias rode in with a party of horsemen. He dismissed them and cantered across to the palacio. SoIer rose to his feet and saluted his Excellency. “WeU,” said Don Pedro, “caU- ing on La Gobernadora early, I see.” Soler cast a quick glance at Uie lady. “Yes," he replied shortly, “I saw her ExceUency sitting alone here and came to pay my respects. I must be going now. I trust I have not bored her.” “Not at all!” chimed Eulalia. “I have enjoyed your conversation. You must caU again.” The Capitan bowed again, and swung on to his horse. Don Pedro caUed in at the door, “Indizuela!” When she answered he spoke in the Indian dialect, and they laughed. She brought him a chair, and wine in a cup. He threw himself into the chair, stretching out his legs with a sigh, and drank his wine in thirsty gulps. Eulalia fidgeted. , “Why were you so rude to Capitan Soler?” “I do not like him." “Why?”“I never dislike anyone without reason. He is an officious, med­ dling, ambitious upstart.” “Is that all?” “No. But why talk about him? I am at home now, would rather talk with my beautiful wife. Look here, He pulled a sheaf of papers from his wallet. "These papers arrived for me on the San Carlos.” Eulalia started. “The San Car­ los! Where is she?” “Oh, she has come and gone again, back to Mexico." “Ah—she has,” Etilalia sighed. “She has gone.” “Yes, but there are plenty of doc­ uments for me to look to now.” He opened a rattling r>aper and read it while Eulalia stared across the lone­ ly bay. A soldier, riding up to the pala­cio, looked at the Governor in amazement, and saluted. “Your Excellency, here are the letters that you left behind you in your office.” .“What are they?” demanded Eu­ lalia as soon as the soldier was out of sight. “Letters from home, for you,1 answered Fages, putting them In her lap. “The San Carlos left them.” “And you had them in your office —wherever that is—all this time and forgot to bring them to me? How could you? How could you when you know how hungry I am for news from home, and how long it has been since I have had any? Oh, I do not see how you—” But the Governor with a muttered excuse jumped on his horse and rode across the presidio to his little office by the great gate. For hours La Gobernadora . sat reading avidly. Letters from her mother, and from friends; accounts of dancing parties, theater, opera, moonlight horseback picnics, new clothes, gossip of this one and that; all the gay life of the gay capital of Mexico. And she, isolated in this California, read and reread every, word. (TO BE CONTINUED) Intelligence of Twins Compared by Science; Physical Traits Studied The most fascinating phases of twin comparisons are, to the major­ ity of us, those having to do with intellectual traits, writes D. Cecil Rife in the Scientific American. The relative importance of heredity' and environment in mental make-up has been for centuries, and still is, a topic sure to arouse a-lively discus­ sion in most groups of civilized man­ kind. Have twin studies shed any light'on this question? - Considerable research has been done in this field, by numerous in­ vestigators. There are certain diffi­ culties, however; which are not often encountered in the study of physical traits. We cannot be sure whether a given mental test measures only innate learning capacity or whether part of the. responses are the result of education and training. Then, too, the person tested may or may not respond to the best of his ability. There are certain tests, such as the Simon-Binet and its revisions, which have been thoroughly studied by psychologists over a period of years, and have been shown to-be fairly valid measures of general learning capacity. Hundreds of twins reared together have been given general intelligence tests, by various investigators. The average intra-pair difference ob­ tained for identical twins is approxi­ mately five' points in I.Q. an insig­ nificant figure. On the other hand, fraternal twins show, on an average, intra-pair, differences of from ten to twelve points, which is a signifi­ cant difference. The obvious conclu­ sion from such results is that in* telligence is, to some degree at least, dependent upon, genetic make-up. Offerings to Moon The day of the full moon in Japan is a great day for the poets, real or fancied, as well as for those at all mindful of ancient usage. A tempo­ rary altar is placed on the veranda or where the moon is likely to shine, laden with offerings to the moon, beans, cucumbers, chestnuts, per­ simmons, as well as 15 white dum­ plings made of rice, symbolic 'of. the fifteen-night moon.

This is a gross waste of the house­ wife’s time, energy and-her pol­ ish! And the latter is usually blamed; We refer, of course, to oil polish—for this type is best to clean, beautify and preserve the furniture. The best oil polish is. not greasy, because it’s made with a fine, light-oil base. The polish should be applied on a damp doth —thoroughly moistened w ith water, then wrung out. Saturate this cloth with the polish-spread on—and rub lightly. The ‘!wet” of the . cloth smoothly distributes the polish—and the finish absorbs, re­ ceives it evenly! This correct procedure takes the “labor” out of polishing — and requires far less tiresome rubbing! A dry doth is then used to easily work up the glow, which is even and uniform— the desired effect! This—and only this—is the proper way to use a good oil polish!

That -was at a time when the. office towel went to the Taundiy only when- it was able to stand alone supported by tbe grease, and grime from printer’s hands. During the time when Populism was in flower in North Carolina, Mr. Click fought side by side with Marion Butler, and tbe. influence of his pen had a lot to do with changing Catawba county from the “banner" Democratic county in WesternNortbCarolina toan op­ position stronghold from which it has never fully recovered. Columnists, as we know them to­ day,’ were not in vogue during Mr. Click’s yesteryear, yet he was a columnist, and bis Goods Box Whiitiings were tbe' delight of many a youngster who is an -oldA native of ,Davie county, Mr. Click early turned bis energies in- . „ .____.___to constructive channels, having[*“*“ and remembers them been one of the organizes of Ibeweu- t^e yf rs ?uUy dl'JerusalemBaptist cburcb, near bis! vorce himTrom this favorite past- ancestral home almost 7 c vears! time, for right up to the last his ancestral nome, almost 75 years home,y and ^rholesome philoso­ phies 'occasionally were recorded in bis “column" gladly provided by neighbor newspapers.

Extreme age! did not sour him oor discouragements render him pessimistic. - On >his eighty-ninth birthday a representative of The Record inquired, during the course of an interview, whether he thought tbe world was growing better or worse. He declared unhesitatingly that the world is ’better because of more nourishments and greater comforts’; for people generally. T hefactthatthere are more peo­ ple and communication of news has been speeded np makes it seem that the peopleware growing moresinfnl, was his philosophical basis for op timism. . Looking, back oyer his life span of . almost a century, we who have acquainted ohrselyes with his ca­ reer can truly say that he devoted his talepts-unswervingly on the side ot/, religion: and temperance. The world must have been made better because1 such a man was pri­ vileged/to live to so ripe an old age. Editor Sahtford;; Martin,' of The Winston-Salem Joidrnal, .pays the following eaitpfial-tribnte to Mr. Click: , j ANestorofJournalism. Death claimed one of the Nestors of Noitb Carolina journalism this week as Jesse/Franklin Click, 90 , a native son of Davie, but since 1884 a resident of Hickory, passed from the scene; .Vfv Mr; Click was one of the finest nrbducts.of-theoldschoolof coun­ try journalism. His fa:th in man and the higher reality was equalled only by his. unfailing sense' of hu­ mor. A staunch Baptirt in relig­ ion and a firm Republican in poli­ tics, he was broad-minded and tol­ erant withal, and'his editorials and brief, paragraph's, while . often ple­ thoric, with therpithjand . punch of wit, w!ere never filled with the bit­ ter add'of uofair partisanship or sectarianism. 1 • ’ In kis later-journalistic years Mr. Click/J|eca<!^nn i|fdent admirer of Woodrbw’jWtfi»(«^ although the great ^ a f president-: belonged to a political party tO:Jwbich the Hick- ory.editordid,ppt^eiong. deeply impressed with the Wilson, ian idealisni and the deeo love, for ;"!~-'- all humanity which impelled Wil-' C.

The de­ ceased retired from the journalistic field onlv a’tew years ago. He was remarkably active for a man ol bis years until only a few weeks before his death.-. He has provoked many a hearty Iaugb witb the humor which be in­ jected into a personal column which be entitled, “SbOft, Pithy Stops, by The Goods Box Whittier.” Mr. !Click always stood for a strict moral, code, Sud bold expos­ ures of evil'- which appeared from time to time in his paper kept down mucb towdiness in/his community. Many newspapers of.tbe present day might do well to' follow some of the/examples set by Mr. Click. C. W.

Partin m m r 'M'EW YORK.—In 1929, at the age of seventy-one, Frederick H.' Prince, the Boston banker, was still playing polo. He has great faith in _ . _ the durability ofTim e Better men, institutionsThan Reform and governments,for Basinete as long as they be­have themselves. Se left for Europe to forget about business for a while and intimates that it wotild be a good thing if the government would be similarly neg­ lectful. “Washington should stop trying to reform business and leave the situation to time,” he says. Time has treated him nicely and he may well give it a testimonial. At seventy-nine, he is the grand seigneur of American business. Only tour years ago, he engaged in a hard-hitting slugfest over the con­ trol of Armour St Co. He got what he was after—the chairmanship of the board. He has many such trophies, having con­ trolled 46 railroads, and, in general,' one of the biggest cuts in the Amer­ ican dream of any man of his day. His (mainly liquid) fortune is esti­ mated at around $250,000,000. But, „ , _ . . for many years,Alakes Point he says, he has of Being in made it a point to Debt Always £?„ about$2°,000 -000 in debt. That is revealing in connection with his ideas about money and success. He emphasizes the dynamics of money. It isn’t money unless it is working. Stagnant money just dries up and blows away. Hence you draw cards' even if you do have to drag a few chips for markers.He’s a little too heavy for polo, with a massive gray head, deep sunken, pondering eyes, and heavy, gray moustache; a bit grim, per­ haps, but not formidable. When, early in October, 1929, a small black cloud appeared on the horizon, he viewed it with a telescopic eye, saw it for what it was, and got out of the market. , The cyclone never touched him. Until a few years ago, he was still riding to the hounds at Pau, in southern France, master of the hunt.;. He has marble palaces here and there, one of them the former man­ sion of Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont, at Newport. Remarking that he has been in business 55 years, he says this little squall will blow over ir two or three months. • • * 'T'H E reason isn’t quite clear, but, these days, the colleges compete for tuba players as well as athletes. Dr. Walter Albert Tuba Aces Jessup deplores Prized'Same this and other as Athtetes phases of th e scramble for stu­ dents in the annual report of the Carnegie Foundation for the Ad­ vancement of Teaching, of which he is president. The fight seems to be entirely in the field of extra-curricu­ lar activities. No mere scholar gets competing' bids from rival faculties. Since he became head of the Car­ negie foundation, in 1933, Dr. Jessup has been a consistent deflationist, so far as education is concerned. He wants fewer and better students in the colleges. He assails the col­ leges which would “teach anybody anything.” He is against education­ al trimmings, excrescences and gadgets, as the little Scotch iron­ master doubtless would be if he were looking over the current scene.Other leading educators join him in this, but the big mill has to have • nt 'it plenty of raw ma-Bram MiU terial, to keep on Needs Raw grinding, or else Material become just acrossroad plant. So they go after even the tuba play­ ers. At any rate, each can blow its own horn. Dr. Jessup was president of the University of Iowa from 1916 to 1933. A native of Richmond, Ind., he was educated at Earlham college and Columbia and gathered several honorary degrees in later years. He was superintendent of schools in In­ diana and dean of the college of education of Indiana university. He has won high, distinction in the edu­ cational field and is the author of a * book on arithmetic. One gathers that he would not recommend Benny Goodman for a college faculty and that quite prob­ ably the next Carnegie report may find adversely on the shag, the eep- er and: the susy-q. He is for low kicking and high thinking, as against the prevailing reversal of - this formula.Consolidated News Features.WNU Service.

Washington.—Changes in Presi­ dent Roosevelt’s policies have been coming so fast Changes lately that aboutCome Pint all I am able to do this week is to re­ view the situation. I have gath­ ered information and advice from many official sources in an earnest effort to understand what is happen­ ing, but with all of that I am 4nite" incapable of what I would regard as a complete analysis. As the air pilot would report while flying through fog: the visibility is zero. The proper basis for a start, therefore, appears to be with recol­ lection that one of the cardinal poli­ cies of the Roosevelt administration was control of agricultural produc­ tion to accomplish higher prices. Another basic plahk is the foreign trade policies under which recipro­ cal trade treaties have been'negoti­ ated with numerous foreign nations. These two planks were designed to make markets available for what we produce, first, through scarcity of quantity and, secondly, to stabi­ lize the world exchange of goods on price levels which we, in this coun­try, considered ‘to be worth while. Various other legislative acts and White -House announcements came into the picture also, but we need not be concerned with them just now. Well, the higher prices began to materialize. They came along to- the point where eight or ten months ago there was genuine evidence of a speculative boom. - Mr. Roosevelt said recently in a statement to the press that the outlook on this cir­ cumstance was a bit alarming. Sud­ denly, however, the' depression set­ tled down on the country. The Pres­ident took note of it after a time and announced that prices had to come down in order to encourage buying by the consumers. That was in January of this year. Early in Feb­ruary, he told die press that there had to be higher prices to bring the country- out of the depression.'' Subsequently—it was on February 18, I believe, he took another posi­ tion on the price question. He said in a formal statement: “It is clear that in the present situation, a moderate rise in the present price level is desirable and that this rise need not and should not extend to all prices.” So that now we are committed to a price rise on some commodities and present or even lower prices on some other commodities. It is to be presumed (because there is nothing to show a contrary view) that all of the machinery of govern­ ment is to be used to bring about price rises in “some commodities" but not all of them. However, to continue our review: I reported to you in December, 1937, and have mentioned several times since that there is a trust busting drive on that is as big and as broad as the famous “big stick” which Theodore Roosevelt used when he was President. Twenty-nine cases against so-called monopolies are pending now in federal courts and the federal trade commission has some others in process of prosecu­tion. The prosecutions range all the way from ladies’ half-size dresses and against individuals who design styles through the list to Aluminum Company of America. Now, while the trust drive has been on (and some folks have been cruel enough to charge that the trust busting drive is to keep the folks from realizing we are in a de­pression), another: thing has. hap­ pened. I refer to the passage of the new farm aid legislation. I have not been able to understand the law, but Secretary Wallace calls it one of God’s blessings to the farm­ ers because be says that it will re­ duce or limit production and there­ by force a greater return to the farmers. In Mr. Roosevelt’s state­ ment on the general price situation, however, he spoke of the new pro­gram as follows: “Our program seeks a balanced system of prices such as will pro­ mote balanced expansion in produc­ tion. . . . This1 is not a policy of restriction; it is a policy of- abun­ dance.” I seem to recall some phrases of a few years back which described the plans as leading, first, to higher prices for - agricultural products through ‘!scarcity” ; -then, there came “the more abundant life” and later balanced abundance. I as­ sume the “balanced expansion” must represent something taken in between, the other policies, but I frankly do not understand. Ihat is the reason why I have attempted this report to you by way of a re­ view.• • • Although admitting that much of the new program is too deep for me to analyze, there Trode are certain phases Treaties of it which havebeen operative and from which results have' be­ gun to show. Take the reciprocal trade treaties as an example. I came across some figures down at the Department of Commerce the other day and they were something of a revelation. They showed that in 1937 this nation of ours was im­ porting more agricultural commodi­ ties than it exported. I could not find when that Condition had ob­ tained-before. Certainly, there have been few times in our history when that has happened. The department figures showed that the United States imported 18 per cent more commodities from the farms of the world than it ex­ported from our farms. Further ex­ amination of those statistics reveals the disturbing fact that the bulk of those imports were things which our American farmers could have grown right at home. I can find no other reason for the condition than that the reciprocal trade trea­ ties which were to bring us pros­perity have taken prosperity to some other farmers. The circumstance caused me to wonder then whether these trade treaties are not slowly grinding the American farmer into the dust I have tried to find out how the new farm aid law, which restricts pro­ duction further in the United States, is going to help this situation. Ac­ cepting Secretary Wallace’s state­ment that it will result in higher prices for our farm products, will it not by the same token make a greater difference between foreign prices and our own? And if that be true, is not it to be expected that there will be more imports of farm products from foreign lands? My reasoning brings, an answer of “yes” in each case, and so I cannot see where we are going to get “balanced expansion” out of those factors. Now, as Al Smith used to say, let us look at the record as it concerns the trust-busting drive and its re­ lation to prices, employment and the like. I simply have no patience at all with the big business groups that ignore or forget their responsi­ bilities to the public. There is no excuse and can be no excuse for crushing any individual who is try­ ing to run a business of his own. It is one* thing, however, for a busi­ ness to have grown big because it serves its public well and quite an­ other thing for the same group to have attained its bigness through savage tactics. ' * * * That brings me to the recent con­ viction of the oil companies in a trial that was held Frasf at Madison, Wis. Busting As far as I have read the record in that case, the basis of the charge by the government was that the oti companies had used a pricing sys­ tem which was fostered by the in­ famous NRA, a policy laid down by congress. Secretary Ickes of the Deiiartment of the Interior, ndw one of the loudest mouths in the chorus of bust the trusts, insisted on the oil companies getting together. He wrote letters to them to that effect. Of course, the NRA was held un­ constitutional but the decision was based on the question of congres­ sional autiiority to delegate powers to the executive officers. It did not declare that congress had no right to grant privilege of agreement on prices for purposes of stabilization. We might also look at some of the tactics employed by the govern­ment. Robert H. Jackson, who was the spearhead and spokesman for the trust busting drive, lately has been promoted to the job of solicitor general of the United States. Mr. Jackson told a senate committee considering his nomination that he had picked “the proper forum’-’ for the oil case. He said the Depart­ment of Justice would continue to do it. They picked a New York court to hear the case against the Aluminum company in order to get the proper kind of a jury as they did in the oil case. The tactics used in the Aluminum case seem to me to be almost rep­ rehensible. For instance, the gov­ ernment had been anxious to set a date for the trial and the Aluminum company counsel urged early ac­ tion. The record of that day in court in New York revealed that when Judge Knox proposed a date early in April, Walter Rice;' one-of Mr. Jackson’s assistants, admitted to the court that the government did not yet have, enough evidence to prosecute. This seems far afield from the price question. I wonder if it is so far off the-subject. As I said earlier in this discussion, legal ac­ tion against anybody, individual or corporation, is destructive, demoral­izing and expensive. I Imow noth­ ing about the merits of the oil case, or the aluminum case or any of the' others beyond what I have picked up in the irecords. On the cither hand, however, it is plain for:any­one to see no “price structure” can be arranged for “balanced expan­ sion” ; if the federal government is going to decree one course of ac­tion for business with one hand and write an obituary for the same busi­ ness .with the other hand. That is to say, if the people are unable to Imow or understand what their1 gov­ ernment policies are, it is quite likely that those same people will continue to ask each other: “Where are we -going and what is the end going to be?”® Western Newspaper Union* IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY!CHOOLLcsson By REV.

Such is the assurance of God’s Word. Countless Christians have proved it to be true that they may trust God to supply every need—temporal or spiritual. The lesson for today first presents the disciples as they had come back from their preaching expedition and presented' to the Lord Jesus a re­ port of their stewardship in minis­ tering the bread of life to the. spir­itually needy. He invites them to a place apart from the busy walks of daily life for a time of com­ munion and rest. The multitude would not be denied, however, and follow our Lord to the desert place. Having taught them, Jesus has op­ portunity to instruct His disciples in the important ministry of supply­ ing for those in need the bread for their bodies. I. The Ministry of the Bread of Life. Reports of accomplishments in the field of Christian work (al­ though sometimes an earnest ac­ counting of stewardship of service and money) are all too often pre­ pared for the purpose of impressing men and seeking their financial as­ sistance'. The real report is the one which disciples make to their Lord. It concerns two vital points. 1. “What they had done” (v. 30). One of the temptations which face the preacher and teacher of Chris­ tian truth is to avoid unpleasant and difficult problems by simply proclaiming, the truth and doing nothing about the outworking of that truth in daily living.- It sounds very pious to say that we will present the Word and let it do its own work, but the Christian worker who evades his duty to deal at close grips with sin and disorder in the church and community has not dis­charged his responsibility to Christ. 2. “What they had taught” (v. 30). The second temptation of the preacher is to follow the specious reasoning of the modernist who says that it does not matter what a man believes, it is what he does that counts. The foundation of Christian character is Christian doctrine, therefore the disciple of Christ must know what to teach, and give ac­count to the Lord for his teaching. Teaching and doing the command­ ments of God go hand in hand. H. The Miiiistry of DaUy Bread. Jesus found no rest, for the mul­ titudes followed Him to the other side of the lake. Ere long the eve­ ning approaches, and the disciples begin to be concerned about how this great multitude is to be fed. They follow the inclinations of the flesh and decide to solve the prob­ lem by asking Jesus to I. “Send them away” (v. 36). The church has followed their ex­ ample in dealing with the social problems of the people down through the years. The result is that being denied fellowship, com­ fort, and help by a church which was too busy building up a vast or­ ganization or a beautiful order of worship, the common people have responded to the appeal of political leaders who have provided a sub­ stitute for what the church should have giveii them. Serious thoughts are these. It will not do for us to “send them away” from the church empty hearted and empty handed. Our Lord says— 2. “Give ye them to eat” (v. 37).Reckoning hastily on what a small boy had brought for his lunch (trust an alert boy to be ready!), the dis­ ciples soon demonstrate that it is impossible to feed this great throng. Logic is such a devastating thing when it operates apart from faith 'in God. They were absolutely right in their reasoning and in their cal­ culations, but they had forgotten the one factor that really counted. Jesus was there, and Jesus is God, and God is omnipotent.3. “He commanded . . . and they did all eat” (vv. 39, 42). When God speaks all the limita­ tions of the finite disappear, and the needs of men are fully met—with “twelve baskets full of fragments” left over! Let those who labor in. difficult places with limited resources take heart-~and trust God. -BOsdom Wisdom allows nothing to be good that will not be so forever; no man to be happy but he that needs no other happiness than what hehas within himself; no man to be great or powerful that is. not .master. of himself.—Seneca. Longings - Every longing should become an active impulse in the soul. Our longing should lead us into all paths of Christiy service and a ll heroic duty.

S T A R D U S T A lovie • ILaJio ★★★By VIRGINIA VALE*** UNCLE SAM is the producer of “The River,” regarded by many as the greatest of current motion pictures, and one of the greatest motion pic­ tures of all time.' Specifically, “The River” was produced for the Farm Security administra­ tion by Pare Lorentz, a former New York film reviewer, who for the past two years has been turning down big-money offers from Hollywood in favor of working for the government. “This is the story of the Mis­ sissippi, where it comes from, where it goes, what it has meant to us, and what it has cost us,” the beau­ tiful voice of Thomas Chalmers in­ tones as the picture starts. From then on in magnificently photo­ graphed scenes we are shown an epic. The Mississippi rising in re­bellion is far more stirring and ma­ jestic than all the actors you have ever seen in imaginary crises. Months ago David Selznick and Paulette Goddard, who sometimes answers to the name of Mrs. Charles Chaplin, indulged in a bit­ ter argument: Friends reported that Paulette expected to play the role of Scarlett O’Hara in “Gone With the Wind,” Mr. Seiznick replied crisply that she was not even being :■ FauIette Goddard considered for it, and Paulette was so upset she said she wouldn’t play it even if he begged her to. Now they have patched up their troubles, she has signed a contract and both admit that if her tests are satisfactory she’ll play the role. —*— Kate Smith had a guest star on her program who cost her almost as much as the sponsor. The guest star was Hortense Odium, who took over a foiling store a few years ago and built it into one of the greatest sources of women’s fashions. Kate doesn’t have much time for shop­ ping, and she was so impressed by Mrs. Odium’s talk that she gave lavish orders for her spring ward­robe then and there.—-K— Peter Lorre, the sinister “Mr. Moto” of Twentieth Century-Fox films is never the victim of prac­ tical jokes in Hollywood. Fotts out there know he always strikes hack. When he was leaving London for America, his director had a big dray horse delivered to him at Uie last minute as a parting gift. Mr. Lorre sent the horse to a friend’s farm, then arranged to have three . hundred singing canaries delivered to the director at three in the morn­ing. — ■K - Norma Shearer has never forgot­ ten the stars whose pictures thrilled her when she was just getting started in pictures fifteen years ago.

Hitler Defies the World POLITICAL turmoil spread over ^ Europe after Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler, in an address to the reichs- tag, declared his intention to make Germany one of the most powerful na­ tions in the world, gave warning that it was re-arming and did not fear war though it desired peace, and demand­ ed th e return of Germany’s lost col­ onies. Furthermore, BQtler upheld the ag- gressive actions of Adolf Hitler Italy a n d Japan, and asserted that Germany would not tolerate ultimate victory of the loyalist faction in Spain over Fran­ co’s rebel forces.The Fuehrer told with gratifica­ tion of his success in compelling Chancellor Schuschnigg to give the Austrian Nazis representation in his cabinet and to permit them to act as a political party. He gave no assurance that the independence of Austria would be preserved. He openly threatened similar action against Czechoslovakia unless the Germans in that country were granted “political liberty.” Hitler’s speech might be summar­ized as a declaration that Germany will ignore Great Britain, France and other western powers in carry­ ing out her international policies, wSl continue her efforts to destroy the last vestiges of the general set­ tlements which followed the World war; will insist that the “have not” nations must be restored to a basis of equality with the “have” pow­ ers, and is prepared to defy any combination of powers which may be formed against her. Here.are some of the other things Hitler told the reichstag: Germany refuses to accept “cred­ its or other promises” in substitu­ tion for the colonies taken from her by the treaty of Versailles. Reports of dissension between the Nazi hierarchy and the Reichswehr are “nonsense” and in his new role as supreme commander of the Reich’s armed forces he has decid­ ed to “strengthen the army to pre­ vent the menace of war.” Germany’s . relations with Great Britain can not be improved so long as British statesmen and newspa­ pers attempt to meddle with what the Reich regards as its own in­ ternal affairs. Germany has no intention of re­ turning to the League of Nations. —*— Halifax Succeeds Eden n EFtJSING to go along with Prime Minister Neville Cham­ berlain in his plans to “buy” a friendly settlement with Germany and Italy, Capt. An­ thony Eden, British foreign secretary who has fought the ambitions of. Euro­pean dictators for tsro years, resigned from the cabinet. With him went Vis­ count Cranborn, the principal foreign un­ dersecretary. Vis- count Halifax was appointed to sue- MrdHaIifax ceed Eden temporarily. This change was in effect another triumph for Hitler, was especially regretted by France, and threatened to precipi­ tate a serious crisis for the British government. Viscount Halifax, lord president of the council.and former viceroy of India, is a personal friend of Hitler and an insistent advocate of imme­diate friendship with Germany and Italy, even at the cost of great con­ cessions by Britain. He was sent to Berlin not long ago to talk over matters with the Nazi leaders.Eden told the house of commons that he had resigned rather than deal wiih Italy in the face of Pre­mier Mussolini’s “rife, hostile prop­ aganda” against Britain and H Du- ce’s “glorification” of victories in Spain. Chamberlain boldly told the house of commons that his government would begin negotiations with Italy at once in hopes of obtaining a friendly settlement. He put forward a four-power peace plan designed to eliminate the dangers of war in Eu­ rope. As members of the pact, he ad­ vocated Germany, Italy, France, and Britain.Chamberlain went to Buckingham palace and gave King George his account of the events leading up to Eden’s resignation, and then sum­ moned Dino Grandi, Italian ambas­sador, to a conference. With them were Halifax and Sir Alexander Cadogan, permanent undersecre­ tary for foreign affairs. It was learned that the break between Chamberlain and Eden came to a climax a few days' before when Grandi and the prime minister had a conference concerning the basis on which negotiations might be opened for a general understand­ing between London and Rome. Some British leaders feel that agreement with Mussolini for Medi­terranean security would give Brit­ ain a stronger hand in dealing with Germany on the question of col. onies. ' French Worried, DREMIER CHAUTEMFS and oth- *■ er high French officials saw, in Hitler’s words concerning German minorities in other lands a definite threat against Czechoslovakia, a military ally of France, whose se­ curity the French are bound to de­ fend. There are about 3,000,000 Ger­ mans in that country. From Prague, the Czech capital, came word that Czechoslovakia would not even negotiate with Ger­ many regarding autonomy for those Germans and would not yield to co­ ercion as did Austria. Officials said that if negotiations are Hitler’s aim, they would be regarded as “in­ fringement of Czechoslovakia’s sov­ ereignty, and therefore not accept­able.” As for the prospective British- Italian agreement, the French gov­ ernment was fearful that Chamber­lain’s overtures to Mussolini would take a course that France could not follow without risk of alienating its own Socialist and Commtmist ele­ ments. The government, however, was determined to keep unbroken its close relations with Britain. For Price Increases 1DEFORE going to Hyde Park for u a - short vacation, President Roosevelt announced two moves de­signed to restore prosperity. He declared the administration’s eco­ nomic policies are being directed toward a limited increase in prices, to be achieved without inflation or any substantial increase in the cost of living. He ordered the Reconstruction Fi­nance corporation to renew its lend­ ing to industry and the railways. The President specifically men­ tioned farm prices as needing to be increased. On the other hand, he said certain other prices, such as those in the building industry, have remained at a high level for the last few years. No specific monetary action is contemplated to increase those con-' sidered too low, he added. . Earle Wants Toga fJO V . GEORGE H. EARLE of VJ Pennsylvania announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomi­ nation for United States senator, standing on his record as governor and continued support of the Roose­ velt administration.“If elected a member of the sen­ ate, I shall continue my Services on behalf of the principles which have marked the Roosevelt administra­ tion and my own administration is Harrisburg,” Earle said; Historic Ho axes By ELMO SCOIX WATSON •© Western Newspaper Union, H orrors o f th e D routh I") ITRING the great drouth of 1936 ” an enterprising photographer sold" to news picture companies three “views from the drouth area of North Dakota’* which were printed in newspapers all over the country. One showed the water in the M is­ souri* river near Stanton so low that automobiles could ford the “Big Muddy” without difficulty; another depicted “a herd of cattle from the- drouth area contentedly grazing on the state capitol grounds at Bis­ marck” ; and a third, the whitened skull of a steer lying on a bare spot of pasture that had been parched and cracked by the heat. Widespread publication of these pictures caused great indignation throughout North Dakota because its citizens knew that they were gross exaggerations. One of the leading papers of the state, the Fargo Forum, exposed the hoax by reprinting the pictures labeled “It’s a Fake.” Along with the Missouri river pic­ ture was printed one showing a Stanton ferry crossing the stream which, it declared, was 15 feet deep at that place. The second was la­ beled “a photographic trick—super­ imposing a picture of a herd of cattle on a picture of the North Dakota capitol building. Where those cows are presumably grazing is a graveled parking lot at -the rear of the state capitol, thickly dot­ ted with cars at all hours of the day.” As for the steer’s skull it was called a. “movable ‘prop’ which comes in handy for photographers who want to touch up their pictures with a ,bit of the grisly” and it was pointed out that it was “a typical alkali flat, left when melting snow water and spring rains have passed. Without difficulty, one can find these in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Indi­ ana, wherever one chooses.” T h e F lo a tin g C abaret D ACK in 1924 the New York Her- aid Tribune printed a story which sent the United States coast guard on a wild goose chase all up and down the Atlantic seaboard. It was in the days of prohibition and this story described a 17,000-ton “floating cabaret” with an old-fash­ ioned American bar, a ballroom, a jazz, band and beautiful chorus girls —all provided for the entertainment of . wealthy New Yorkers who visit­ ed this “joy spot” every night The story had been turned in by a young reporter named Sanford Jarrell who claimed that he had been an eye-witness of the merry­ making going on there. Then Jar­ rell was sent out to get more details of the illicit bar. But instead of coming back with one, he sent back a signed confession that it was all a hoax. He had-concocted the yarn to win the attention of his city edi­ tor. So copies of his confession, witii the Herald-Tribune’s apologies for being the unwitting perpetrator of the hoax, were sent to all the oth­er New York papers which had been playing up the story, based upon Jarrell’s “revelations.” However, a movie.company which was just about to release a new pic­ ture called “Wine” capitalized on the excitement over this story. It placed an advertisement in all the papers in the form of a letter signed I q r “the captain of the 12-mile limit cafe” and advised readers to go to the manager of your favorite pic­ ture theater and whisper “show me Wine.” He will do the rest. A great many did—and he did, thereby in­ creasing box office receipts mate­ rially.* * • T h e Iron M alden E1OR many years Nuremberg, Ger- r many, was famous all over the world for & relic that was consid­ered the most terrible instrument of torture ever devised by man. Itwas called the “Iron Maiden,” a huge iron box, in the form of a cloaked and hooded woman, with binged sides.' Inside was an ingenious ar­rangement of razor-sharp pro­ jections so placed that, when a com­ plicated clockwork slowly.closed the doors upon the unfortunate prisoner, his eyes, heart and other vital or­ gans were pierced. According to tradition, more than one witch died a horrible death with­ in the embrace of the “Iron Maid* en” and the sight of it caused many a shudder when this and other sinis­ ter examples of medieval cruelty from the notorious tower of Nurem­ berg were taken on a tour and ex­ hibited in the leading cities of the world. In 1931, however, the “boo Maiden” was exposed as a hoax by Fraulein Hildegard Kartner, who announced that this instrument of torture did not date from medie­val.times, nor had anyone ever been IcOled in it Instead, the “Iron Maid­ en” was the invention of her great- uncle, an antiquarian who had con­ structed it back in 1867 to satis, fy an apparent public taste for “horror, relics” and who had made up an appropriate story to go with it.

Of course, quilts have always been impor­ tant among our needlework hand­ crafts. So many readers have written asking me for more of the old fashioned embroidery stitches that were used, in making crazy patchwork that I have collected dozens and dozens of these quaint stitches from old quilts. Some' of them are so attractive and col­ orful that it seemed a pity not to use them for modern decora­ tive purposes.This gay little double house effect built upon blanket stitches with chain stitches flaunting from all gables was the invention of someone’s great-grandmother and I couldn’t resist using it for a ltmcheon set of light blue linen. It originally adorned a light blue satin patch in a quilt and all the other colors indicated here in the sketch are the original colors. All the strands of six-strand mercerized embroidery thread were used for the luncheon set. The mats were hemmed first and then the blanket stitches' were taken through the hems to make a firm edge as shown at the' lower right. AU the other stitches used are clearly illustrated. Just the edge stitches without the little houses were used for the nap­ kins. Many more authentic old patchwork stitches are illustrat­ ed in a new leaflet which is free . upon request with the booklet of­ fered below.Have you a copy of Mrs. Spears’ new book SEWING?

The State law requires that retail seed dealers pav a license tax of $10 with a toll of $25 coming from the wholesaler. The money thus col lected, Commissioner W. Kerr Scott explains, is to cover the cost of op erating the seed laboratory provided under the Pare Seed Law as a pro­ tection for the farmers against in­ ferior seed. Inspectors are now checking up on the quality of seeds sold in the State and all dealers are required to pay license. Only seeds which meet ,the State requirements may be sold. These inspectors are not collectors, but they are authorized to accept the license fees and forward to Raleigh. Or the seed 4 merchant may send his check direct, his re­ ceipt serving cs a license to sell. The objective is commendable, of course. Wnen'the farmer or gar­ dener puts defective seed in the ground his experience is costly mainly because of the time lost. Anything the State can do to remove this uncertainly, seems reasonable and right. - But it works a hardship on the merchants who are thus required to foot the bill for these laboratory and inspecting costs while the State claims the credit for a definite ser­ vice to the farmer. It is our notion that in a great many cases the merchant dies not realize a ten dollar profit on the seed he sells during the season. Inthat case he loses money in trying to help the farmer and the gardener— something that obviously should not be required of him. And again. In thus forcing the little dealer out of the picture—the merchant who carries a few seed simply for the accomodation of his tiade the law is working an in- coavenience'on the consumer. OS hand it seems a better way would be to tnsist on the seed pro­ ducer footing the bill, if there must be a laboratoiy and an army of in­ spectors. Certainly the bedeviled merchant ought not be made to pay tor the policing..—Statesville Daily.

The Great Discontent. Somebody has wondered what is the matter with the country. It is admitted that ours-is the greatest country in the world; that it is.a privilege' to be a citizen of it; that people of this nation enjoy great privilege over those of other countries; that our wages are always Iiurher and that the masses have a better living than the masses of many other nations. Yet there is something wrong. There is a great dissatisfaction on all sides.;:'All individuals and. all groups are far from having in their minds that certain spirit of peace and quiet that should mark their lives at this time. One noted economist, : perhaps more than one. has said that what the country needs is a great revival of religion. Region might do it. Sometimes I think it has passed the stage when religion would have anything to do with it. At least there are so many hard hearted sin* ners it appears impossible to take re­ ligion and make a dent in the unde­ sirable situation. The true cause no doubt is of a political nature. Franklin J). Roosevelt has been re- commended as the greatest friend of the poor man of all time, ' the great pacifier, the wonderful Moses lead­ ing the nation out of darkness Into light. The.time may come when he will be named in history as the dissatis- fier who lived and planned just., be­ fore the coining on the darkest hour. Instead of having led us along safe and conservative lines out of the troubles that followed the World war it wili be realized that he put into motion the vain experiments and-changes that led by slow de­ gress but with absolute, surenesa to the 'utter"destruction of our long prized form of government:, instead of keeping ,us free and in the enjoy, ment of the greatest freedom--any people ever , had, he will'.have brought about conditions of discon­ tent, arrayed class against class, group against group, ,uncertainty and confusion, which tangled mess the people will have emerged as slaves rather than the proud men* bers of a democratic state. One of the worst signs of the im­ mediate present is the passage of the farm .bill. Although the old AAA was discarded when the courts said it was unconstitutional, the new act is a iruch worse form has been put over and the second step in the direction of regimenting all of the farmers is being tsken. Just as they are fooled into signing on the dotted line, their liberty awav. They will be made to see great visions of an in creased, income, the highest prices they have ever known for their re­ stricts products. This is only an . other example of the "brought and oaid for-plans’’ that they persist in calling “economic planning.” - And anotber bad sign: is the pas- rage of another act providing stih more millions, to keep the nation on .

There is perhaps the secret of the great dissatisfaction. : Those who get the money do not get enough. Those who do not get it have to put it up in the form of taxes. The whole world of business, both big and little, is disgusted and this adds to the general discontent that is growing and spreading every day as it seems to me.—H, H. Woodward, in Charlotte Observer. An Editors Dilemma. North Carolina’s libel laws seem reasonable enough, as it is said that a newspaper may clear itself of lia­ bility if it retracts offending state ments within a reasonable time. But it appears that in a case which has recently arisen a retraction would only’make matters worse. Gommenting on the candidacy of PY D. Grist for the United States Senate, the-Greensboro News said the gentleman would make “an ele­ gant dog-catcher.” Mr. Grist de mands a retraction of the statement which was highly offensive to him. The editor seems willing to do the right thing, but points out that re­ tracting would imply that the gentle­ man would not make an elegant dog- catcher; in other words, was not fit to be a dog-catcher. And the News admits that "there is nothing what ever in the public record of the: dis­ tinguished citizen that would war* rant such a conclusion/.’ So, at last report-the News was standing by its original statement, refusing to retract, and declaring “it will stand a law suit first.” Founder or osieopainy Andrew Taylor Still, founder of os­ teopathy, was bom near Jonesboro, Va., in 1828. He farmed in Missouri, studied medicine at Kansas City and saw. service in the Civil war. In 1864, when three of his children died, of spinal meningitis, he devised the treatment known as osteopathy and practiced as an itinerant physician- for some years.

By Senator Arthur Capper, of Kanras President Roosevelt’s budget mes­ sage last week predicted, a deficit of at least a billion dollars for the fiscal year 1939. That means -9 year of deficits for the Federal government —an arcumulation of deficit that means a national debt of more than 38 billion dollars by 1939. compared to 16 billions plus in 1931 Gtnss it over as we may, this is.1 an impossible fiscal situation Expendi­ tures of Federal government must be reduced, or the pay day of reck omng is going to be decidedly un­ pleasant. No group is more interested in a balanced national budget than is the farmer Attheend of the road, a continuing unbalanced budget means the confiscation of land, either thru icflation that wipes out values or thru unbearable tax?s and final col- lr(»e of government. ■ I will give my support to any rea­ sonable reduction in expenditures program proposed by the President, or offered in Congress with or with­ out administration approval.

He talks rapidly , and inter­ estingly on poetry, politics, history, philosophy, the classics and humani­ ties. If tbs. Nieman had engaged him to do $1,000,000 worth of travel­ ing and talking to newspaper men, instead of giving the money to Har­ vard, the light shed in the dark caverns of journalistic minds surely would have matched any possible Harvard effulgence. • And, ' like 'Erasmus, Mr. Bryan loves to travel and talk. The glow in Mr. Bryants own mind was imparted partly by Har­ vard and partly by the University of Virginia. Of the southern aristoi, he practiced law in Richmond and then engaged with his father, the late Joseph Bryan, in energetic co- management of the family newspa­ per, then the Richmond Times. The . elder Mr. Bryan had established a tradition of independence which his eon has maintained. With the passing of such free- swinging journalists as Halstead, Greeley, Watter- Example or son, and, more re- Spark Plug cently, FremontJournalist Older, Mr. Bryanremains one Of the. few distinguished-exemplars of that kind of spark-plug newspapering. He was president of the American Newspaper Publishers’ association from 1926 to 1928. Sixty-six years old, he still keeps up with his horsemanship, taking all the jumps until a few years ago. He is caught up in an incredible whirl of directorates,, public and civ­ ic posts, clubs, philanthropies and social and political activities—al­ ways with time to talk. And now he’ll have to measure copy-readers and reporters for a college workout. • * * Vfl ME.

The the Funmts French liked the comics, but they wouldn’t take the columnists. Mmie. Dupuy found they liked to do their own interpreting and shied away from omniscience in all forms. She is the American-born widow of Paul Dupuy. When M. Dupuy died in 1927, he left in her hands the biggest string of newspapers and magazines in France.In the French tradition, in which the widow quietly assumes com­mand of the cafe or shop, she picked up the vast publishing business, .managing it at first from ,a sick­ bed, as she was convalescing from a long illness. The publications included the Daily Petit Parisien, with a circula­ tion of 1,800,000; . Dimanche Illustre, a Sunday newspaper in which Mme. Dupuy introduced the first Sunday supplement in France; La Science et la Vie, comparable to the Scien­ tific American; Omnia, an automo­ bile journal; Le RepubUcain des Hautes - Pyrenees, a provincial daily; Nos Loisirs, a women’s mag­ azine; Agriculture NouveUe, a weekly, and several others.Mme.

SPY RING IS SMASHED Two Men and a Girl Arrested for Selling American Army Secrets to: a European Nation Mot Yet Named Here, photographed alter their arrest in New York, are Johanna Hof­ mann of Dresden, Germany, and GuenQier Gnstav Rutnrich, former United States army sergeant and a deserter, two of the three persons accused of MmpiititT in an international spy plot, the aim of which was the sale of United States military secrets to a foreign government. The woman, a hairdresser on the German liner Europa, was messenger and paymaster for the ring. IV . P tA * u ( SUMMARIZES THE WORLDSUMMARIZES THE WORLD’S WEEK• C Western Newspaper Union* Three Taken as Spies GOVERNMENT agents and New York police broke up a ring of spies engaged in selling secrets of the American army and navy to a European nation described as a world power but otherwise not named. Three alleged members of the ring were under arrest and held in heavy bail. Two of them, a for­ mer sergeant in the United States army and a private in the army, were said to have confessed. The third was a German girl, hairdresser on the German liner Europa. The G-mqp were diligently searching for other members of the band.Guenther Gustav Rumrich, the ex-sergeant, who is a deserter, said he was engaged in obtaining secrets and information concerning military operations of the United States army- and was forwarding it through confidential channels'to va­ rious addresses in Europe. Erich Glaser, the private, had been stationed at Mitchel Field, New York, the largest, army air base on the East coast and key to the air fortifications of the metropol­ itan area. He supplied certain air corps codes to Rumrich. , Johanna Hofman, Uie woman ar­ rested, admitted she was the “liason officer and paymaster” between the ring and its employers. Secret code keys and considerable quantities of money were found on her person. So far as investigators have been able to learn Rumrich sold the for­ eign power a gold brick. He never transmitted any information that could not be found in the army and navy journal, a publication obtain­ able by any one. However, army officials' consid­ ered the maitter of considerable im­ portance and armed guards were placed around military centers along the Atlantic seaboard. . At Mitdhel Field especial protection was given the hangar housing a bomber used for testing one of the air corps’ most precious secrets, a bomb sight capable of aiming heavy air projectiles with great ac­ curacy. — * — ■ Reorganixation Fight P RESIDENT ROOSEVELT’S bill for reorganization of the execu­ tive branch of the government came up in the senate, and immediately was confronted with a strong combina­ tion formed to force amendments th at would greatly lessen the wide discretion­ ary powers given the President by the measure. This was comprised of both Democrats and Re­ publicans, being much the same line-' up that defeated the Supreme court enlargement bill.The coalition was headed by Re­ publican Senators Borah of Idaho, Vandenberg of Michigan and Mc- Nary of Oregon and Democratic Senators Wheeler of Montana, O’- Mahoney of Wyoming and Burke of Nebraska. An amendment by Wheeler em­powering congress to veto any of the President’s reorganization pro­ posals within sixty days gained wide support. Opponents of the bill contend it smacks rif dictatorship and would strip congress of its constitutional powers. . ' Senator Byrnes of South Carolina opened the debate in behalf of the bilL Senator B orah Wfore Power for Unions /SrGANIZED. labor was winner v in several • decisions handed down by the Supreme, court. The rights of employers and of nonunion employees were restricted. A ma­ jority of the. court upheld the exer­ cise of power . which a dissenting opinion denounced as despotic ana wholly at variance with the prin­ ciples of constitutional liberty in this country. In a Mflwaukee case the court held that a demand by a labor union that an. employer force his em­ployees to join that union consti­ tuted a labor dispute under the Nor- ris-La Guardia act. It reversed a decree issued by Federal Judge Ferdinand A. Geiger and upheld by the Seventh Circuit Court of Ap­peals, which permanently enjoined a union from attempting to coerce an employer whose employees had refused to join that union. In two cases the court upheld the right of the national labor relations board, without notice, orhearing, or an election, to require employers to withdraw recognition from an em­ ployees’ association alleged to have been fostered by the employer.In a fourth case the court refused to review a decision by the New York Court of Appeals, the state’s highest tribunal, which upheld a contract requiring membership in a particular union as a condition of employment. — * — Soviet Chiefs Face Death W ITHIN a short time we may expect to read of the execu­ tion of 21 prominent citizens of So­ viet Russia, latest victims of Dicta­tor Stalin’s blood purge.

Among the ac­cusations against them were conspir­ ing with foreign powers to dismem­ ber the Soviet Union, plotting to assassi- nate Linin and Stal- AlexisRykov in, inspiring the assassination of Sergei Kiroff, and. putting to death the writer Maxim Gorky and two others previously supposed to have died of natural causes. tMost prominent of the men put on trial were Former Premier Alex­is I.

He is sternly suppressing all illegal Nazi activities, and-is using the army in doing so. In the Nazi province of Styria thousands of . peasants planned to march on Graz and Nazis intended to occupy the gov­ ernment buildings. So the chancel-, for .sent motorized units from the Vienna garrison to guard all ap­ proaches to the city, and airplanes scouted about Iooldng for the ex­pected marching columns.

Horn. 12:1, 2.GOLDEN TEXT—Now therefore beware* X pray theej and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing.--Judg. 13:4.PRIMARY TOPIC-^The Body God Gave Us.JUNIOR TOPIC—Por Jesus' Sake.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— •What Liquor, Drugs, and Tobacco Do to Health.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— Sow Litemperance Affects Health. The universe of God is perfectly organized in every respect. Beings that function in the spirit realm are spirit beings, not subject to the lim­ itations of the physical world. We who dwell and serve in the phys­ ical world are equipped with phys­ ical bodies which are ideal instru­ ments for our present existence. With all their shortcomings and frailties, our bodies are indeed mar­ velous machines, intricate and deli­ cate, yet unbelievably hardy and durable. They are a gift from God, and it is our express responsibility to glorify God in our bodies (I Cor. 6 :20). i I. How to Have a Strong Body. It is obvious that not every one has equal physical strength and health. In some measure this is by divine providence or at least by God’s permissive will, and those of us who find ourselves thus limited do well to count on-His grace for patience to use what we have for His glory. But not one of us wants to yield hopelessly to our inability. Rather we will do our best to over­ come it. We want to know 1. How to cure weakness (Mark 6:53-56). God alone can heal the sick. Even in our day when science has made such strides in the healing art, we note that the most successful rem­ edy or system of treatment is the one that clears the way for what men call nature, but we know to be God, to work. Jesus healed the multitudes in the land of Gennes- aret; He heals in America. 2. How to prevent weakness (Judg. 13:12-14). The mother of Samson, who was to be a Nazarite, was to drink no wine and to observe careful dietary regulations before he was born. Npte also that if it is bad for a man to have such poisons in his veins before he is bom, surely it is poor judgment to put them in after he comes to the age where he con­ trols his own life. We need to watch our diets, and we have much valuable help on that point. We also need to give serious attention to the use of narcotics. It may surprise some to know that the term narcotics includes not only drugs and alcoholic beverages, but also tobacco, and such common things as tea and coffee. Other, abuse of the body, such as overwork, neglect of rest, etc., may well be mentioned. The besetting sin of some Christian workers is the destruction of their bodies, the very temple of the Holy Ghost, by over­ work. H. How to Use a Strong Body. Unfortunate as it is to ObseifVe that some who would serve the Lord have to struggle with the weakness of the body, it is far sadder to note that all too often those who have strong bodies forget to use that strength for God. Our Scrip­ ture, portions give us two excellent guiding principles. Our bodies should be ‘ I. Kept for God (I Cor. 3:16, 17). These verses refer to the body ofthe Christian, for only of him can it be said that his body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Spirit is a person, the third person of the blessed Trinity. He comes to dwell within the soul of the Christian immediately upon his being regenerated, thus making his body the temple of the Holy Ghost. A clear grasp of that truth solves the problem of what we should do with and for our bodies. We must keep them well and clean. We dare not defile them in any way. The body of the Christian is kept for God. 2. Yielded to God (Rom. 12:1, 2). It is a high and noble sacrifice to die for Christ. But our call just now is to be a tTiviiig sacrifice.” There are times when that may seem harder Uian to be a martyr. We do know that it is not always easy to live through the drab, difficult, and sometimes dreadful days, with a dear and shining testimony for Christ. But it can be done and is always to His glory. It .is by the transform­ ing grace of God that we are en. abled to live such a life.

How Often Should Your Furniture Be Polished? Housewives differ on the ques­ tion of “when to polish their furni­ ture.” Some have no set time for it—polishing when they think of it —or when, casting a glance about, they decide that Bie furniture can “stand it.” Others, nolish every cleaning day—which ordinarily occurs once a week. Others dedi­ cate but one day a year to this important procedure. And still others, polish the furniture in their home regularly, once a month. This last group is the largest—but their schedule is not sufficiently frequent. Furniture can not be polished too often! True, the outward benefit of the best oil polish—the luster—will last through a single week—and more—but this same polish, with its light oil base, preserves and "feeds” the furniture, revives it, prolongs its life! So that every application is highly beneficial to woodwork and the various pieces of fine wood in the home. Our advice, therefore, for the sake of endurance, as well as appear­ ance, of your furniture, is “polish up” with a good oil polish at least twice a month!

K sr# o u m m e rv i I Ie South Carolina Washington ' Digest .4 Nat i o n a I Topics Interpreted ByWILLIAM BRUCKART Washington.—Congress, has just passed another relief appropriation for the current more . year. This, like for Relief the earlier vote of funds, was done at the request of the President. The new sum is $250,000,000. Since the first appropriation for the current year was a billion and a half, we now find that federal relief during the current fiscal year will have cost at least $1,750,000,000. It may be added that the sum mentioned is in addition to local charity, com­ munity. chests, etc., and also that it has been, or is being, spent in a period five years after we were told that the nation was about to be re­ made under New Deal ideals. Now, it is a rather far cry from relief, the' care of the aged and in­ firm, the destitute, to the question of politics. That is, it appears only to be a great gap between those two phases of national life. I insist it is very close; that there is no gap at aU. I reach that conclusion because never before In history1 has there been such use of basic economics as in the last four or five years. That is to say, politicians have turned to questions of economics for their political buncombe—and it ought to be added that when a poli­ tician tries to do something with fundamental questions, just there begins a grand mess. AU of which brings us to the point of this discussion. When Pres­ ident Roosevelt went into the White House in March, 1933, he was con­ fronted with probably the most un­ favorable conditions, insofar, as business conditions were concerned, that any President ever has faced. He called for a New Deal in han­ dling the situation and he obtained almost unanimous support. Indeed, as we look back at Uiat situation, the support was too nearly unani­ mous. He had no opposition to point out weaknesses of what was pro­ posed by the responsible , officials. I think I recaU having written at that time that a stronger opposition would have been good for the coun­ try. Some of the pitfalls would have been avoided, I am sure, if congress had not been so subservi­ent and if the President had not yielded so completely to the the­ ories of advisers who had no prac­ tical experience. The people of the nation were in a mood to listen to anyone. They heard new phrases of what can and should be done—the more abundant life, the economic royalists, the crushers of the poor, and on and on. But the trouble with the professor- advisers was that they ignored or did not know of another side to the story. In short, they beUeved that human nature had changed over­ night and that a nation could be managed or directed or ordered as an individual. It has taken sev­ eral years to re-establish natural facts and natural laws,: but they seem, now to be approaching that re-establishment through the proc­ esses that normally must be fol­lowed in a nation, as distinguished from an individual. So, what do we have? I think the answer is that we have an admin­ istration headed Iqr a man who is the victim of the advisers he select­ ed. I believe it can be said that politically President Roosevelt is just as uncertain about where he is going as is the rank and file of citi­ zens about where the nation is go­ ing. But he selected those advisers and, for the most part, continues to give them his confidence. They are still on the job. And in no better way has it been shown that they are utterly incapable of meeting na­ tional problems than is shown in the business of relief. Relief, is more than just the care of those who must have help. Relief is a condition re­ flecting other conditions. The Pres­ ident and his theorists, therefore, must be charged directly with hav­ ing failed. We have almost as many unemployed or under government aid as we had when Mr. Roosevelt took office.• • • I suppose someone will write to me asking what can be, or what „ , _ .. should be doneNeedDrastic about it. Antici- Remedy pating that query, I will attempt to answer now, but I want to illustrate it. A friend of mine has been ill for several years with an intestinal ail­ ment. Physicians to the number of a dozen or more have studied the case. Finally, the use of a drastic remedy, a potent and almost poison­ous drug, was prescribed. The doc­ tor began by ordering the patient to take three drops, only three, at the start. The dose was increased grad­ ually: In the last few weeks,-my friend has taken fifty drops of the drug each day. There is no assurance that the ailment will be eliminated. There can not be a determination for many mOntbs, ,because the treat­ment is entirely new in medical an­nals. Thus far, there has been no appreciable change in the patient’s condition. But the point is, after all, that a professional man who has devoted years to the study of a science would not attempt to cure a basic condition without first provid­ ing opportunity for the human body to adjust itself to the new condi­ tions. , Now, I am somewhat old fash­ioned and hold to the belief that a whole nation of people, after all, will make progress if given the chance to do so. I further believe that their collective reasoning in the end will be right. They can not, however, be turned inside out unless there has been some preparation for the ordeal and they can not take a dose which is poisonous in quantity any more than my friend, the indi­ vidual, could take it and live. In making that statement, I must make clear my conviction.that some of the New Deal prescriptions were needed. A few of them were badly needed. On the other hand, I think it can be fairly asserted that a good many of them were never needed, never were usable or workable. They were poisons not intended by nature to he so administered to the national body. We can . go further.. It can be said'that no'individual who is ill can work efficiently, if at alL That is true of our economic life which includes business. And business is everywhere—from the smallest gen­ eral store at the crossroads near my Missouri birthplace to the gi­ gantic Marshall Field company in Chicago, General Motors in New York, Aluminum company in Pitts­ burgh, or hundreds of thousands of others. Business can not get going at its proper pace if it is ill. The business of the country has something more than its own body, however, as a problem to constantly watch, That general store that I mentioned may not be much con­ cerned about Washington affairs, but it feels the impact of things done at Washington whether it rec­ognizes them or not. The larger concerns, of course, feel Washing­ton actions much more directly. So, in addition to the influence of mar­ kets, buying and selling of or among the general public, business is in­ fluenced by what is done here In Washington, and that may be bad medicine or good medicine. Let us take just one or two ex­ amples of what I mean. One of the Biblical proverbs of the New Deal was the necessity for a law providing what the theorists were pleased to call “social security.” That includes old age pensions. New Deal campaigners sang many beau­ tiful songs about caring for the aged, and certainly there are mil­ lions who have needed help. When it came to practical application of the plan, however, the beys started looking for the necessary money. Thus arose the so-called payroll tax for unemployment and old age pen­ sions. It soimded workable to many per­sons. It was a thing for the future „ . . and there was notPractical too much worry Problem about the problem of where those who were to pay the tax would get the money. The time has arrived, however, where the beautiful theory is a perfectly enormous practical problem. The first year’s “take” by the government' amounts to something over a billion dollars. Some of it, almost half, comes out. of the pay envelopes of the workers; the re­ mainder. comes out of the pockets of the employers. It is turned aver to “Washington” and when money gets into government hands it be­ comes unproductive. r The result has been that in the last year there has been taken away from its own- ers more than a billion dollars that would have added at least a billion dollars to the buying power of the country if it had been left with the proper owners. That is one of the big reasons for the Roosevelt de­ pression, as distinguished from the Hoover depression obtaining when the present administration took over the reins of government. It was a dose of 50 drops when the country was able to stand only a few drops. ' To get back to relief: I have ar­ gued in these columns many times that relief should be handled by the states and, equally, I think the old age pension and unemployment ben­ efits, if they are to be used, should be handled by the states. My point is that Professional Reliever Hop­ kins, here in Washington, can not know through any organization he may build what the facts are sur­ rounding any of the thousands re­ ceiving help. Something that, can be done is to eliminate about one third of this general money spending that is going on here in Washington or out in the Various states under direction from Washington. I wish Mr. Roose­ velt had stuck to his campaign promise of 1932 to cut federal ex­ penses by 25 per cent: The tragedy of this spending is that it saddles debt on the younger folks and those yet unborn for several generations. It has to end somewhere. . . C Western Newspsper Valeo. WHAT TO EAT AND Food Provides the Key to Mental and Physical Power You Can Be Strong, Beautiful, Wise, Rear HeaIHiy Children Only If You Know How to Combine the Right Food Materials in the Diet By C. HOUSTON GOUDISS 6 East -39th Street, New York. SINCE the. world began, food has been man’s first con­ sideration. For it he has fought and died. To find it he has traveled over great continents and braved unknown dangers. His quest for food has changed the map of the world and colored the history of nations. But in all of these historic struggles, he has been motivated solely by the desire to get enough food to satisfy hunger. Today, actual hunger is rare. But hundreds of thousands of people slarve in the midst of plenty because they do not realize the tremendous power of food for good Ar for evil. They do not realize that as a man eats, so he is, and that his choice of food materials gives or takes away the power to live vigorously—to think clearly—to feel warmly—to be strong; healthy and wise. .. It can be truly said that your food is your fate. It has the power to shape your body —to make it strong and beau­ tiful, or weak and ugly. It has the power to influence your language, your gait, your tone of voice, to - Short--^your life. With the right food, life be­ comes a glorious adventure, for it increases your leader­ ship, intensifies your mag­ netic qualities, strengthens your morale, and increases your physi­cal defenses and resistance. With­ out it, one drags through miser­ able days—never realizing even half of his potential mental and physical powers. Food—the F uel of L ife. The human body is a machine, far more complex than any ma­ chine devised by the mind of man. Food is the fuel which runs this amazing machine Food is also the material used to repair worn- out parts, and to keep the intri­ cate mechanism in good working order. The body machine cannot be run efficiently without proper food fuel any more than a car could be run without gas, or a house could be heated without oil, coal or wood. food also has the power Io speed up or slow down ike workings of Ihe mind. It likewise influences the state of our nerves, the warmth of our affections, the type o f characters we possess. Finally, the power to have strong, healthy children is based on proper food. And nutritional scientists have discovered that the wrong food can even take away from us the greatest bless­ ing that Nature has bestowed— our earthly immortality. For it can deprive us of the ability to bear children who will carry on after we are gone. Six G roups of Food Substances. What food substances are neces­ sary to build and maintain top health—to develop the greatest physical, and mental power? There are six groups of food sub­ stances which must be included in the balanced diet which promises increased health, happiness and longevity: 1. PROTEINS which build and repair body tissues. These are found in such foods as milk, eggs, meats, fish, cheese and nuts. 2. FATS which- yield heat and energy. The fats are rep­ resented by butter, cream, oils and the fat of meats.. 3. CARBOHYDRATES —the starches and sugars. These also supply heat and energy, and are found chiefly in such foods as bread, potatoes, cere­ als and sweets. 4. MINERALS which build, repair, protect and regulate. Among the minerals which are ' absolutely necessary to health and'Vigor are calcium, phos-. phorus, iron, copper; iodine, sulphur, manganese, magne­ sium, sodium and potassium. These are found in varying amounts in milk, eggs, fruits, vegetables, whole grain cere­ als and meats. 5. VITAMINS which are nec­essary for body regulation, and as a protection against dread deficiency diseases. Six have been discovered to date—A, B1 C, D, E and G. 6 . WATER which is a part of C. H euston G oudtss, outstanding food authority, author, and radio lectu rer, author of “ W hat to E at and Why.” He knows food from soil to serving, from table to tis­ sue. W atch fo r his. articles each week. all body tissue and must be present in order to have the other food elements function properly. The ideal dietary is one that in­ cludes a correct proportion of the different food elements required to supply bodily needs without any of them being supplied in excess, or in insufficient amounts. D anger in O m itting One E ssential To illustrate how important it is that not one of the necessary food substances be omitted,, let me tell you how an eminent bio-chemist proved in his experimental lab­ oratory, in one of our leading uni­ versities, that the difference be­ tween- stupidity and genius- de­ pended upon' the presence or ab­ sence of one vitamin. He placed a pregnant animal upon a diet adequate in every re­ spect, except that it lacked one of the six vitamins. As soon as her young were bora and weaned, they were fed a completely ade­quate diet. Then the scientist tested the mentality of the young animals. He wanted to find out whether or not their mental power had been injured in any way by the fact that their mother—during preg­ nancy—had been deprived of one vital food element. So he put them in a.runwajr. To get out of this— and reach a tasty morsel at the other end—they had to make their way through a series of passages. He had already made this same test on the same type of ,animals born of properly fed mothers. He knew that it never took them more than 25 trials to leara their way out of the maze. Most of them had gotten out after 15 to 18 attempts. But what lack of skill was shown - by the animals whose mother had been deprived of proper food! The stupidity of these pathetic little creatures was unbelievable. Some of them never learned, to thread the maze and reach their goal, even after as many as 250 trials. They were being given—at the time—every­ thing that was necessary to their diet. But they had entered life with minds totally'unequipped to cope with the world—because their mother had not been prop­ erly. fed before they were born. Food Can Make or Mar. This is a striking example if the power of food to make or mar existence. I could cite hundreds of other laboratory experiments, many of which have been con­ firmed by clinical experience. Nor is this power of food, to af­ fect mental activity confined . to prenatal life; Even.if a child en­ ters this world with a strong body and a clear mind—the wrong food during childhood has the power to wreck health. Investigation after investiga­ tion, by leading specialists throughout the country, has prov­ en that a surprising percentage of retarded children—those who can­ not keep up with their school grades—do not really have infe­ rior minds. They only seem stu­pid because the action of their minds is clogged and .slowed down by sluggish,. under-fed bodies. Iheir brains are like machines which cannot attempt the speed of whid^ they are capable—because the proper fuel had not been pro­ vided. Physical fitness is a far greater asset than material possessions, fo r in times of stress and trouble, those who' can stand up, under the physical strain win the battle. For those who collapse, all is IosL The H om em aker’s .R esponsibility. Every wife and mother is there-' fore faced with the tremendous responsibility of keeping her fam­ ily mentally and physically fit. Her husband must have the right kind of food in order to earn a living. Her own diet ' must be adequate and' well-balanced if she is to have the energy, wis­ dom, and patience required of a mother at all hours of the day. Hmr baby will not grow into a healthy man or woman unless he or she has the right nourishment from the moment of birth. And school children can’t keep up with their classes without toe right food. H you will follow this series of articles, and put into practice the principles of correct eating that I advocate, I can promise that you. will increase both mental and physical efficiency, and as a re­ sult, achieve greater health and Ifoppiness for eVefy member of your family. Food A ffects Zour Body and M ind. Each morning when you awake, a new life is ahead of you. Whether that day and the days to follow will be better or worse than-those that went before, de­ pends largely upon what you eat. For nothing short of a miracle is performed at every meal. Within a few hours the bread, meat, vegetables and liquids that you swallow are transformed inti your personality. They begin to think, feel and act. They become YOU. What was food yesterday, today is carrying on ;the impor­ tant business of the world, run. ning banks, operating machines, poring over school books, or car- ' tying on that most important ol all works, the making and keeping of a home. Each meal that you eat kelps or bin ders the efficiency and ease with which these various duties me performed, That is why it is true that as you eat, so you are.

MABOH 16, 1938 THE DAYlE RECORD. C .FRANK STROUD - • Editor. TELEPHONE Entered at the Postofflce in MockB- vllle, N. C., as Second-class Mail matter, March 3.1903. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: ONE YEAR. IN ADVANCE - * I OO SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - S SO AU of the Republicans in MocVs- ville township don’t live in Moeks- ville despite the fact that some folks seem to think so. A country vote in Novembercountsjust as much as a town vote. The Republican State convention is meeting in Charlotte today. A large crowd of Republicans from the ioo counties in the state, will be present. Hon. Frank Knox, pub lisher, of Chicago, will address the convention, which meets at 10 o’­ clock in the city auditorium. A goodly number ot Davie Republi­ cans will go down for the Conven tion. Just who will be named as State Chairman to succeed Will Meekins, is not known: There is much talk of Jake F. Newell, of Charlotte; I. A. Ferree, of Asheboro Worth Henderson, of Greensboro, and Cbas. A. Jonas, of Lincolnton. Either of these gentlemen would make an excellent chairman. A gentleman thanked us last week for the mention we made of the Mocksville fire Bovs. The Record has never printed a disparaging word about these fire fighters. They have.done much good work in fight­ ing fires, and have saved thousands of dollars worth of property for the citizens of the town. They have saved The Record office twice with in the past dozen years, and it is needless to say that we appreciated their good work. We have seen these fire boys save many buildings during the past quarter of a century and we are proud of them, despite the fact that they haven’t the fire fighting apparatus that they need and should have. Here’s hoping the town will soon be able to pur chase more equipment, and that the citizens ot the town will help the boys when a fire occurs by giving them plenty of room in which to fight the fires. Farm Loan Meeting. The Federal Farm Loan Asst elation of Davie county met in the court house Tuesday afternoon, March 8th, and transacted routine business. The following directors were elected: L. L.

The Record is glad to welcome this new business estab lishment to Mocksville. A Spicy Feature. ; One of the best and most inter­ esting features appearing in the Winston-Salem Journal these days is a short, spicy bit of bome-spun philosophy carried under the head­ ing. “ My Notions” by John Wesley Clay The editor of The Record has known Wesley Clay for nearlv a half century. He is one of the old-fashioned boys who sweated qv.er a! type casje during the Cleve­ land panic. Mr: Clav and this scribe were tellow craftsmen on the old Hickory Press away back in the nineties We wouldn’t miss Clay’s- “ Notions,” which appears daily in the Journal. They are' attracting; wide attention, and some day in the ; near future we predict they will ap­ pear in hundreds of papers through- 1 out the country. Davie Farmers Vote No. Davie farmers marched to the polls Saturday and gave a majority of 38 votes against cotton control, and 41' majority against tobacco con­ trol. A two-third vote was neces­ sary to carry the measure Farmers in Calahaln and Clarksville totmship cast the biggest vote against the measure. The vote in the 20 cotton and tobacco growing states was over­ whelmingly in favor of the crop con­ trol bill. ______________ Repoblicao Convention.

BARRETT “A man’s reach should exseed U s grasp,” wrote Robert Browning In "Andrea del Sar­ to.” The most Im­ portant dimen­ sions are length a n d breadth, height and depth, altitude and de­ scent, elevation a n d vision, "reach and grasp.” The spir­ it as well as the successor our ex­ perience in life reflects the Im- portance we place upon these dimensions. A man may have great vision, he may dream dreams and create marvelous ideals, but lacking in the power of expression, his ef­ forts usually end in failure. On the other hand we know many peo­ ple who seem very busy making a strenuous effort to achieve success, but they can give no s; tisfactory explanation of the spirit that moti­ vates their toil, nor can they give a clear description of the'goal they wish to attain. The first had vision and altitude but no depth or breadth; the latter has breadth and depth but no altitude or vision. The person who desires to achieve real success in any chosen Undertaking must possess a healthy combina­ tion of these dimensions, height and breadth, reach and the passion to grasp; both the upward and the for­ ward look, day dreams of what we wish to be plus the force that strive* to realize the ideal. Over-emphasis on one dimension to the exclusion of the others ex­ plains why life to some people seems useless, a desert waste, a tiny speck between two eternities of silence. ~ An experienced hunter gave his young son some good advice when he told him if he ever got lost In the woods not to permit himself to be afraid, but to remain calm and steady. He suggested that his son look for a hill in the immediate sur­ roundings, some elevation at least, from which he could see the spires of a distant city and from this per­ spective discover the direction home. It is not surprising that some persons appear lost in this madden­ ing world of speed and strain. They are like an unchartered ship on a storm tossed sea, with the compass lost. The experienced pilot, how­ ever, knows that the north star is a safe point from which to calculate !direction, but to see that star he must first look upward, and then with his prepared chart he pilots the ship onward. Fear, IaCk of confi­ dence, and the absence of courage Increases the peril of being lost in the woods of our entangled experi­ ences, but an elevation of poise and tranquil confidence from which we may see a vision of the spires of successful endeavor before us, points the way to achievement and victory. Live your life, live it strong and steady with large room for both reach and grasp. Ever remember that “not failure but low aim is crime.” Bdiem lanFrovinee Bdiemia Is a province of file Czechoslovak republic, which be­ sides Bohemia, consists of Mo­ ravia, Slovakia, Silesia and Ruthe- oia (sub-Carpathian Russia). These territories formerly, until 1918, lay chiefly within the empire Cf Austria- Hungary. VISITOR FROM CHILE Not the gal, but the little animal perched upon her shoulder.

After telling Serra he is sending to Mexico for his wife and son, whom he has not seen for eight years, he refuses his aid toward founding the Santa Barbara Mission. Dona Enlalla agrees to go to California, accom­panied by her duenna, Angnstias. Don Pe­dro sends for Serra, telling him that two priests are on their way from Mexico with Eulalia and young Pedro and that he Is leaving to meet them. .Pages engages a young Indian girl, Indizuela, as maid for Eulalia. Eulalia sans from San Bias. Itis a desolate trip. From the port of Lortto. a large cavalcade loaded with Eulalia's party starts out for the long overland trip. Eula­lia, accustomed to luxury and comfort, Mt- terly regrets having been persuaded to come. The .two priests. Fray Mariano and Fray Bartolomeo, call on her and arouse her suspicions as to Uielr genuineness. As the cavalcade stops at various missions. Eulalia hears rumors of the approach of her husband. Wbile Don Pedro plans a great-flesta' to welcome his'wife. Eulalia' plans her costume. Don Pedro welcomes his beautiful wife and young son. Eulalia is toasted as. the Queen of Uie Callfomias. On the long journey to Monterey, the re­united couple are royally entertained at the Presidio at San Diego. Eulalia disapproves of the democratic relations of Don Pedro and his people.

UmpIng from mis-' sion to mission, Father Serra has a vision M St. Francis and tells his saintly master that he will be ready to Join him when Santa Barbara Wssion is founded.

CHAPTER S B Fog crept in from the sea,-smoth­ ering the Royal Presidio of San Car­ los de Monterey, and the Mision San Carlos Borromeo in a damp clinging blanket. It hung in wisps from the pines and cypresses, and muffled the sounds of the torses’ hoofs as the Governor and his party traveled the two leagues of the Via Cruces from the presidio to the mis­ sion. La Gobernadora, riding in a lit­ ter, watched the gray tatters lift for a revealing moment, stowing odd tortured shapes of gnarled cy­press. ,Then a breeze from the sea would blow, hiding everything again in gray veils. She could hear the ocean, whispering, sighing, break­ ing into crashing cries as tee waves met frustration against rocky crags where the cypress hung precarious­ ly•Shivering, she pulled her velvet mantle around her, burying her chin in the robe of supple otter ~ ns. Her Indian bearers trotted along the narrow road with an even lope, half - naked, glistening with moisture. At one side of her rode the Governor in such gravity as be­ came the Governor of the Califor- nias on his way to mass. At the other side of La Goberna­ dora rede Pedro the Younger, his small, face serious. Fotowing the Governor's parly came the entire population of the presidio, riding in order of their rank: the officers, their wives, children and servants; the soldiers, their women, children; the storekeeper, thp blacksmith and other artisans.It was Bkilalia’s tost visit to the Mision San Carlos. She- was curi­ous about'the place, eager to hear Padre. Junipero; he who spoke words of Same. with a tongue of i;old. She had not seen the Padre !Presidente since her arrival at Mon­ terey, but had pondered deeply upon the strange man of .God, and sought to discuss him with the Governor. To him she had expressed herself With an admiration for the monk which, in its heartiness, was for­eign to her usual expressions of re­gard for. others. Silently in her own mind, she was building great hopes. Serra was strong, the strongest man in Califoriiia except her hus­ band, and sometimes she wondered if he were not stronger than the Governor himself. -But he was the man she. needed. And her need was greater than the guilty fear of him which assailed her at times. Then there was Capitan Nicolas Soler. He was an ally of a different Caliber. But with the two of them on her. side—Serra, bringing his fanatic belief and strength in his holy convictions to bear on the Governor, and Soler, . with his per­sonal ambitions and desires to wor­ry and harry Don Pedro—her own topes of leaving the province she hated might be realized.She stirred impatiently in the lit­ ter. The Governor turned to her.with a while.' . “Are. you comfortable, my soffit” he asked tenderly. She nodded in­differently, and he spokeagain. . T-am sorry tor your sake that it is foggy for your first trip to the mission. For myself I like the fog as well as tee sun. It is all one to me, whether-the air be hot and dry, or cold.and danfo, just.so it is the air of California.” :. - The ben sounded suddenly closer, and then Ekdaiia saw the white­ washed trails: ot the mission.- Through a great gate in. a palisad­ed wall, the people from the pre­ sidio passed, by low buildings and conical Indian huts—jacals—to the door of the little church. . At the entrance a priest, In his ceremonial vestments, met them, swinging, an aspersorium that sprin­ kled holy water on them, while two little Indian neophyte - acolytes swung censers that smoked with burping copaL As they bowed their heads for the priest’s blessing, Fio of the yel­low umbrella; now- in spotless white trousers and shirt, his head encir­cled in a red handkerchief, spoke to, the Governor. Don Pedro ex­cused himself and followed Pio, as La Gobernadora entered the Church. The Governor followed Pio into the sacristy.- Standingupright in the center of the small apartment that was almost filled by a great chest of. drawers'sent-from .,Spain to hold' the priestly vestments, Fray Junipero was in his sacerdotal robes. He spoke abruptly without any ceremonious preamble. “I have been awaiting you, Don Pedro Fages. You have not been to see me. And I have not been to the presidio. The time that haspassed since my return has beep spent on my-hands and'knees, day and night, in close communion with Our Ser­aphic Father.”' Serra’s eyes gleamed large in bis wrinkled face. The pupils seemed to spread over the entire iris, and they gleamed feverishly. Deep lines made furrows from nose to twitch­ ing gray lips. Fages noticed that his hands clasped and unclasped nerv­ ously, and that tremors shook his frame constantly. “Father,” said the Governor, "I will forgive the lack of ceremony with which you greet the represent­ ative of your King, for I see you are ill.” “HI?” said Fray Junipero hoarse­ly. “Ill in body? Not I. But my soul suffers agonies untold. I have I “Are Yen Comfortable, Bfy - Soul?” He Asked Tenderly. not called you here to speak of these things. I call you here to ask you about a faith broken, a prom­ise unkept.” Fages started; to speak,- but Serra' moved close to him. “Do you remember your prom­ ises, before you went away? No? Where is the mission to Santa Bar­ bara? Where are the Franciscans you promised me? Where the sol­ diers to guard the work? Where' is that mission, Pedro Fages?” “ Father—” “You will remind me that you brought two Franciscans with you. I need not tell you what they are. You know them. Why did you bring Rubi and Gili here? To insult-me? To desecrate the Bfision San Carlos, whose bricks are made from. my flesh and moistened with my blood?” He tottered and Fages put a hand toward him.“Fray Junipero—” . “Touch me not! Your hands are- unclean! You are betraying. your trust!. Betraying the Holy Church—”. Fages took a quick breath.•“Fray Junipero!” he cried stern­ ly. “Those are serious charges agahist me! I did not choose the two priests who came from. Mexico. They were sent by’others.”- “Then I am betrayed in Mexico!” “No! No one is betraying you! But .your own suspicion* are—” “Ah—ah—mea culpa—mea maxi­ma, culpa—” . He tottered again. Again the GOvenior moved to sup­port him, but EVay Junipero stag­gered to the great chest and leaned against it,. “Leave- me, infidel, unbeliever! You who stand'in tee way of the Bfission of Santa Barbara—dearest wish of my heart-40 be the bright­est pearl in tee . Virgin’s crown.—. Go! And ifit were inmy powerto send you—like Lucifer out of Heav­ en—away from this land your pres­ ence curses, I would do it, God help me, I would do it!” He choked, and bent his head In his hands. Tears trickled through the fingers that had woven and sewn raiment for Indians, and built adobe houses to shelter the heathen. The Governor went quickly from the apartment. Then he walked slowly into the church, knelt a mo­ment andssat beside his wife. She looked in alarm at his face.“Pedro,” she whispered, “what—” He touched her hand. “Nothing,!’ he said, “hush.” She could hear his heavy breath­ing. His fingers strayed to his beard. Then Fray Junipero entered the church, and they rose. He celebrated the mass in a hoarse voice, then turned to climb the steps- to the pulpit. Eulalia gasped when she saw Ito face, gray above the stiff richness of his bro­ caded robe. Twice he stumbled and nearly tell. Ehilalia watched the veined hand on the rail of the balus­ trade with fascination. * A bell, suspended from the center of the wooden'canopy over the pul­ pit, rang mysteriously. The Indians -turned, their eyes toward it, saw it ringing .wittout-aid of human hands, and fell to their lmees in supersti­ tious awe. Then the priest began to speak. The huskiness left his voice, and it rang loud and dear in the still church. What he said, Eulalia did not know, but the words poured forth in ringing cadence.Suddenly, feeling her husband be­ side her gripping the arms of the chair with' bote hands, she caught the import of Serra’s words. “There is one among you who is sent by the devil! Listen not to him! Satan is lashing his tail in this land! Oh, beware, gentiles, beware the tempter’s voice! Listen to the words of God that come through the lips of your Father Jtmipero Serra, who is nothing—nothing itself—and who wishes to suffer, only to suffer for all your sins as Jesus Christ and His Holy Mother suffered. Pains unspeakable — pains unbearable— thus—” ~, He tore open the breast of his robe. Eulalia, through a mist -of agonized emotions, saw the thin chest encrusted with half-healed sores and ancient scars. The Indians moaned. A sigh ran through the congregation. Serra raised a cross, its-lower-end sharp­ ened into a point, in one hand. In the other he balanced a stone. Lifting both with a wide gesture he brought the cross against his lacerated chest, and pounded the cruel point again and again into his flesh with' the heavy stone.He staggered down the steps and mounted the altar. Seizing one of the branched candelabra he held it aloft a moment. “Ye who fear!” he cried. “Ye who fear, behold the courage God gives those who are true to Him!” His eyes glared straight at the Gov­ernor. He plunged the burning candles against his breast. The flames sput­tered and died, extinguished in his blood. A shriek rose above the sighs and sobs of the congregation. On the dirt floor at her husband’s feet lay the wife of the Governor In a dead faint That evening Don Pedro sat be­side Eulalia, watching her anxious­ ly. When at .last, to his delight she smiled wanly and dismissed the alarmed Angustias, he knelt to kiss her listless hand. “How you frightened me, alma mia, my soul,” he murmured ten­ derly. “Do you feel better now. .stronger?” “I suppose I am better, though I feel dreadfully weak, oh, dreadful­ ly, Pedro,” she replied listlessly. Really she was deliciously relaxed and comfortable. “So you were frightened when I swooned, really frightened?” she asked after a mo­ment. . “Of course!” he said, kissing her hands again. “Pedro.” She said thoughtfully, “why was Padre Junipero so angry, so bitter, this morning? Are his ser­ mons always so . . . so fi^ry?” He fold her of the scene in the sacristy. “So you see," he concluded, “he believed he had reason to denounce me. But, by Heaven,” he said bit­terly, rising to his feet and begin­ning to pace the floor, “I am not to blame for his defeat. If he were in his right mind he could not believe I maliciously, and deliberately- chose those two rascally Franciscans to found the Mission Santa Barbara. But be does believe it, and there will be endless trouble for me from this affair.” He tugged at his beard. “I must establish the peace with Fray Junipero in some way. Offi­ cially, of course, I can overlook everything. But personally, some­ thing must be done between us. And God knows what it can be,- or tow it can be done.” Eulalia’s eyes were closed, but her mind was working busily. The Gov­ ernor paced the floor back and forth, back and forth. “Pedro mio,” said the' lady softly, opening her eyes at last, “I think that here is something I can do. Why not let me try to be the peace­maker between you?” The Governor stopped his pacing. “That would never do,” he said after a thoughtful silence. “The Padre Presidente would never come here, unless I ordered him to. And of course I would not do that.” “Your Excellency,” said the Gov­ ernor’s wife with a trace of rail­ lery, “sometimes you are very stu­ pid. Of course you couldn’t order him here. But a poor helpless la­ dy, who has been blessed by the Holy Virgin', and is unable to make the long pilgrimage to Carmelo, might send for a spiritual adviser, a father confessor,-.. . . might she not?” she questioned softly. The Governor stared at her a mo­ ment, then smiled broadly. “She might And then . . .?” “If your Excellency will leave that to me,” answered the lady with a demure smile. The Governor laughed aloud. “I will then!” he cried; and lmffit to kiss her hand. - Over his bowed head, La Goberna­ dora smiled at some inner thought and nodded her head thoughtfully. CHAPTER XTV “My Lady, he is coming. Padre Serra is coming!’’ exclaimed Angus­ tias from her lookout at one of the barred windows. “He is walking across the parade-grounds toward the palacio.” “Ah!” said Eulalia with an exhit- ed flutter. “Quick, Angustias, hand me my sewing. You, Ihdizuffia, pull up a chair here to the fire for the holy fofoer, and be quick about it Angustias, is there chocolate made? Escabellito! Where are you, you imp?-Here, get where you belong.”- The child flopped on the floor fac­ ing the fire, and La Gobernadora settled her feet comfortably on his round back. “All right, Angustias. Open the door for him.” ,When Jtmipero Serra, who had trudged across the hills from the Mission Carmelo, limping on his ul­ cered leg with Pio beside him, reached the door of tee palacio, he paused. Angustias, with a deep bow and murmured greeting, uhhered him within.

Lions and lionesses circled, stood on their hind legs and lay down at the bidding of the doctor, who is used to training wild animals. - In addition to being a lecturer of the university, he is curator of the zoo. “I draw the line at polar bears,” said Doctor Hunter to reporters after the performance.. “I would run for my life from one of them.

He had escaped just as I was entering the zoo and I tried to capture him by catching bold of his tail. .“He turned on me and I hit him in the face and knocked him over. He was ‘bagged’ by keepers with sacks and got back to his box. But I was badly bitten. “I use my brush to push the tons whenever necessary and they take the hint.

Famous Food Expert To Conduct- Feature D EGINNING with this issue ; this paper is pleased to an- I nounce a new series of articles which we believe' to be the most original and up to date food department in the country. We wanted to offer a food department that was live—in­ teresting—different. We wanted to get away from the usual “recipe column.” We believe the women of this community are primarily interested in food in its relation to health, in Its effect on growing children. In­formation of this sort has usu­ ally been too scientific to be understood by the average per­ son, but in this series it is pre­ sented in clear, understandable language and applied so that it will fit the average household. C. Houston Goudiss, famous author, lecturer, and radio per­sonality, will conduct this de­partment each week. Many housewives will want to make scrapbooks of these articles. Don’t miss a single issue. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrtptionis a tonic which has been helping women of all ages for nearly 70 years. Adv.

Ol MAfccH H11 m America’s Greatest Food Authority .Now Writes for This Paper < C. Hooston Gondiss We announce with pride a new feature in this issue, “What You Eat and Why,” by C. Houston Goudiss, noted food authority, radio speaker, author and lecturer, fa­mous as the man who knows food “from soil to serving, from table to tissue.” One of these articles will appear each week, and we know housewives and mothers will look forward to them for the accurate, worthwhile information they contain on foods -and their relation to health. This - is not a recipe column. Mr. Goudiss !has designed it to- serve as a link !between laboratory and layman in ;the food field, interpreting-modern scientific knowledge tn the language of the home maker, giving her the elemental facts regarding new dis­ coveries and the part played by !food' in building and maintaining -health. -EVery woman wants to know what .foods will benefit her family and why, and that is just the informa­ tion that Mr. Goudiss will give. Watch for the articles each week, make a scrap book of them for ready reference. They contain valu­able information every home maker has been wanting. Saba, Strange Isle Rugged, volcanic and with an area of less than five square miles, Saba might be called the strangest isle of the Caribbean. Her first fam­ilies long ago regarded a son who left the- island to seek work and a wife as disloyal to the homeland. Sabanites are suspicious of stran­gers from the outside world. Set­ tled first by the English, who were later supplanted by the Dutch, Saba remains English-speaking. Its men­folk raise sheep, coffee and sugar. Its women make some of the finest lace and drawn-work in the area. The principal town, The Bottom, is paradoxically not at the bottom of the island but at the top. Republican Judicial Convention.

Does a college education pay? Business executives throughout thecountfy are seriously..-experi­ menting with young men In an ef­ fort to answer that. question. • The alarming answer is that a 'surpris-. tag lot of these experiments prove that the advantage of 'a icollegc ed­ ucation is doubtsal and in many cases the boys without their three or four years of campus life suc­ ceeds even quicker in- the business world than their diploma armed brother;. Here is otie example: A few years ago a large Buffalo firm woich makes office supplies; tried the experiment of getting sev­ eral hundred college graduates, picked men, and giving them an intensive six month course in sales­ manship; Then they put them on the road for six months with a lib­ eral drawing account, after whicb they were bn their own. This experiment was certainly a fair one and it seems that any young American withthetraining, a col­ lege graduate is supposed to have, would take full advantage, of this opportunity, and would soon be come a big success: But the truth is, hot one per cent of these young men stuck to the job. The experiment, ^ so far,, as the firm was concerned, was a total s. Those fellows, with their upward of fifteen years of cohtin- OUS school life , and play: behind them, quit just-as soon as they dis- coeered ltie sales job required a lot of thought and bard work. Laterthe same firm selected a group of high school boys and gave them the initial SiiE month training course. These boys knew they didn’t have enough money to at­ tend college and would have to work for a living. Nearly all of them made good.-. Far be it firom. me, to censure our education , system. Io fact, I truiy believe .'we have an acute , need for more education -in 'these United States oif ours,- but oiiir greatest need is’a change of entrance re­ quirements in our colleges and uni­ versities. In this country there are thous­ ands of young men jn1 tbeir early twenties who regret not having en­ tered college when they left school, but then they were unable to bear the expense of further knowledge. Now. thty -find themselves unable to adapt themselves to the campus life and, too; many of them1 are not high school graduates and it’s next tb impossible for any young man to enter .toll^e without a '-high school diploma. - It would be morejsensible, so it seems to me, for this-rigid diploma rule and lots more of. the'tomfoolry erased from ..the entrance require- mentsfaodlttany intelligent young man witha general literary edneai tion ahdan..earnest determination enter college without interterence.- But write: this requirement in the; books: “Every able-bodied applicant for a college course must-have proof that he;has successfully held a job or jobs, that requtres a combination: of hard work,: willingness r a n d ef­ fort for a perlodof.not less than two years” When a young person goes to school steadily, forfifteen' or eigh­ teen years.^ he; becomes stale.- ; The continuous routine of-school hours mould- within him an almost uncon- qaorable nabit, and .when he’s sud­ denly pushed oui-to work his way in the World , tbesudden change - to real-labotdiscourages him ,and Mbe usuall vsoon, returns . to t be free board: athotne or. if he’s married, 1* 1go-on relief.

The Story of Mr. : ;Once there was a'- business .man Hy the-name of John :Smith. - -' ” .Mr. Smith operated a large- fac­ tory, employing approximately one thousand , people. ; He; paid , them good wages and; they were happy and.contented.; : :• Then along came ,.Adversity. ^uslneSS fell offto iaTatber alarm­ ing degree and Mr. Sm’th discover­ ed that he didn’t have enough or­ ders on hand to keep his employees busy. ; Sohecalled in one of ; bis exe cutives, Mr. Jones and he -asked Mr. Jones’ advice about the situa­ tion. . “ Well, I’ll tell you,” said Mr. Jones. :. “ 1 think we ought to do what we can to look after tbe wel­ fare of the folks who work for us. If I were you, I’d go to^them and I’d lay; my cards bn the table. I’d explain how business has fallen off and then I’d tell them the boly way we can remain open and keep, them on their jobs is to put into effect a general wage reduction.- They’ll have to skimp some Ior a- while and they won’t be able to afford all of the luxuries to which they have been accustomed, but when ' they understand the situation; I belieye they’ll be willing to cooperate.’,’ Mr. Smith banged ,his fist upoi> the desk. “I’m not going- to do it!” he exclaimed. “These men have been working for ' men for years; and they" re-loyal folks.. In this hour of emergency I’ m not go­ ing to let them- down. . They’ve stood, by me and I’m going to stand by them. ’ And that ended.the conference. Mr. Smith thereupon decided 'to rely upon his own judgment. He made, an. investigation and discover­ ed that with tbe reduced .number of ofders coming in he really need ed only abourfive hundred; men ,to work in the factory, - instead of a thousand. , Sb he called all of his employees togetbet in a mass meet; ing^and made them a:-fiery speech. He'said.that business;was bail but that they-could depend upon him look-after their interests; .. that be bad plan upon ,him to look attern intertets; that be had a pian of his own; to thwart Adversity and that he didn’t' intend tb discharge a sin­ gle-man on ' his pdyrotl' or make, any reduction in’ wages. : '■ ,They' cheered to beat the; band.; ■ And tbe very "next day, Mr. Smith proceeded ' to put his . own plans to work. He picked fifty men; and told them that their job would be to build a swimming pool. He.picked fifty ihore . and 'directed tbetn to build; a golf course just outside the factory grounds.: Fifty more were assigned the task ol planting, shrubs and flowers. And so-it went. And it wasn’t; long before everybody was bard at work and everybody.-, w$s drawing his pay regularly. That old moss-back, Mr, -- Jones, lifted his voice in protest. “Loeka herej’’ he said.. . “Where .are-*we going to get the money to pay for all this?” - ! Mr. Smith suapped 'his fingers. “ We’ve got ”a reserve.’!.he ex­ plained, “and we can dip into that.; We owe it to: our workers to stand by them and I’m not going to let them down.” .. When the workers heard' about that,, they cheered more lustily than ever. . But it wasn’t more lustily, than a few months, -before ^he-treasurer of the factory went into Mr SmithrS office and sa}d:.?;-:“I hateto mention such unpleuapt news, but; the reserve fund has^one gone and disappeared ” “,Then,” said Mr Smith, most- borrow.; Our credij^ is gqod at the-banks and-I'm sure.:they ^U let ^s have they money.

And they did exactly that; and all of the thousand employees' were thrown out of work and didn’t know which way they to turn, and the last thing they did. before leav­ ing the. factory was; tb gather in front of Mr. Smith’s office, and at a given signal, all of them shouted in cert: ' . .' _■■■ , .... “Fooey oh you, Mr. Smith!” And then tbey went home.—-The State, v- .v -,..

Upton U. S. Trade Sinclair's book,“The J u n g le ,” about the Chicago packing houses, had been carefully mistranslated, in a widely circulated version, which made multitudes of South Ameri­cans believe all North Americans ate dogs. Even in remote jungle towns, I found European trade scouts and salesmen making dili­ gent use of the book. It was'the neatest trade propaganda trick of the century.The one-sided battle has contin­ ued through the decades. Late re­ports are that South American ra­ dio stations are belting Uncle Sam with .everything at hand, and, to the same degree, apostrophizing It aly, Germany and Japan.For this reason, there appears to be more than meets the eye In .the printed story of onr new _ airwave rearmament,, and the ^assignment of a new short-wave channel for broadcasts to South America. With Secretary Hull, Or. L. S. Rowe, director general of the Pan- American union, pleads for “strong­er cultural ties” in the first broad­ cast. Spanish translations follow the English version.

He has become widely known and decidedly persona grata in South America in his 32 years of pleading and prose­ lyting for solidarity, friendship and understanding in the Americas.He has fraternized with South Americans morethan any other northerner, lecturing, writing, evangelizing and expounding his doctrines of friendly co-opera­ tion—always on the high plane of cultural and intellectual inter­ course.

SUMMARIZES THE WORLD’S WEEK•Western Newspaper Vaioo. Berry Claim Cause of Row LONG existing warfare between Dr. A. E. Morgan, chairman of the Tennessee Valley Authority, and his fellow directors, David Lilien- thal and Harcourt Morgan, has come to a climax, due to the claims of Sen. George L. B e rry for $5,000,000 be­ cause his alle g ed m a rb le quarries were flooded in the Norris dam' area. Doctor Morgan has demanded a show- A. E. Morgan down in the form °f a. u. a congressional-, in­ vestigation ofthe whole TVA setup and its activities. A commission appointed by a fed­eral court in Tennessee reported the claims of Berry and> his associates were worthless because their prop­erties could not be profitably operat­ ed commercially. Chairman Morgan then issued a long statement revealing that ; the quarrel in-the authority was due not to differences between himself and his colleagues, over policy, but to his efforts to obtain “honesty, openness, decency and fairness in govern­ment.” Dr. Morgan intimated that ' the Berry deal was only a part of the issue of honesty and decency which he had to face and that there was a lot more he would like to tell a con­gressional committee. Lilienthal‘ and Harcourt -Morgan retaliated with a long defense state­ ment, severely criticizing the chair­man and suggesting that he retire from the commission. President Roosevelt made public this state­ment, leading observers to believe he rather sided with them. But Chairman Morgan replied that he would not resign under fire and in a letter to Representative Maverick of Texas reiterated his demand for an investigation by congress. Reso­ lutions for such an inquiry were in­ troduced, and Senator. Norris; pa­tron saint of TVA and similar proj­ ects, sought either to smother the proposed, probe or to see- that it was carried on by friendly hands.. In the Snidst of the rumpus Lilien- thal announced that the government is willing to. buy the properties of private electric power companies in the TVA area provided the owners will sell them at sacrifice1 prices. The utility officials interested -were invited to meet him and Harcourt Morgain for a discussion. Ijlienthal said that if the proposed purchases were carried out, private power en­ terprises' would be eliminated in northern Alabama, : northeastern Mississippi and nearly all of Ten­nessee.. 'He also announced that the TVA would be ready to advance cit­ ies in the 1 area,-'otherwise’‘unable financially to purchase local power plants, funds from an appropriation of $50,000,000 voted by congress in the recently amended TVA act.

He has. had first-hand ex{>erience in dealing with the'- problems- of men and women. With , this background of both study and-experience he gives, it as his absolute conviction that we must get “back to -the original simplicity of the Christian gospel.” He suggests: that we need to “ dust off the additions and superstruc­ tures” that have been added since. Christ came to seek and to save'the lost.Our lesson for today finds Jesus meeting that very issue with the traditionalists of His day. I. Washed Hands and Unwashed Hearts (vv.. 1-6). In the process of interpreting the law of Moses, and applying it to the affairs of daily life the religious authorities, of Israel had developed a mass of intricate and onerous rules which had literally buried the law itself and had substituted ritualistic formalism for spiritual life. So fond had the' scribes and the Pharisees become of these tradi- tions that they became bold enough to declare that they were far su­perior to the law itself. Their attack on Jesus because His disciples-ate with unwashedhands -did hot refer to the proper cleans­ing of one’s hands before • eating, but to the ceremonial washings which were said-to be necessary-if 'one had accidentally touched a Gentile, or "something that a Gen­ tile had touched in the market place. Jesus skillfully and finally dis- iposes of that question by reminding [the objectors that they were serving God with their lips only, buf their ,hearts were far from Him. Washed hands are not a thing to be con- demned, and Jesus says nothing about that point. When the wash­ ing of hands becomes of more im­ portance than the cleansing of the heart, however, the soul is In real ,danger. . n. Traditions of Man Versos the Commandment of God (w. 7-13). ; Here is the heart of -the entire mat­ ter, for while we may not always be 'hware of it the fact is that :our anxiety to maintain human tradition, which is contrary' to the law and Spirit of God is fundament­ally for the purpose of evading our full and true responsibilifer. The Jew who was so avaricious that he did not wish to support his aged and needy parents could: en­tirely evade that God-given respon­ sibility by declaring that his prop­erty was “Corban,V dedicated to God.. Thereafter no matter how great was the need of his parents they could receive nothing. The execution of this oath was carried out to such a fine, point that ason who - had declared 'his property" to be “Corban” could visit a sick father or mother for only a brief period lest he might stay long enough to perform some duties of a nurse and- so; contribute to his par­ents by saving them some expense. Thus do men even in our -day make- “the word of God of none ef­ fect”, (v. 13); through their tradi­tions. No right , minded person’ ob­ jects to the worthy traditions of .worship and service which are such: a precious.heritage of the Christian church. Rightfully apprehended and properly -used they are both- desir­ able and helpful. But we mustnever- peraiit the grace and power, of God in Jesus Christ “to be brought under the trammels of human teach­ers or the arrangements of human office-bearers. The first movement toward the mastery of the soul by tradition is the. movement of that soul away from immediate, direct, first-hand, fellowship with God” (Morgan). - The crying need of our day, as it was of .the-time when Jesus > was on earth; is that we tihould clear- away hindering encumbrances.

Soid^taUdrag Doans Pi u s NationalToslcslhtefpteted by William Bnickaft .’Mattonat Eiwas Building W ashington, D. C. Washington.—From Hfis seat in the grandstand the view is quite dear - that NeVt Aooaf Deal leaders ' are Politiet going out in this summer’s prima­ ries to nominate New Dealers against the conservative old line Democrats. I have looked, into the local situation in a number of states and congressional districts and ev­erywhere the line- of cleavage is showing. And these'things are hap­pening notwithstanding the declara­ tions of Postmaster General-Nation­al Committee Chairman Farleythat there will be no interference. It is not the purpose here to re­ port on every one of the states or districts where the battle is impend­ ing between New-Dealers and old line Democrats. I shall attempt, however, to‘outline a* few of them to establish, what, is going on and howthe New Deiilers are maneuver­ing to get a better 'grip on Demo­ cratic party machinery. To do this dearly, it seems to me it ought to be recalled how Presi­ dent Roosevdt and numerous of his spokesmen have threatened those Democrats who have disagreed with New Deal policies in any serious way. Ifae fight over the President’s plan - to rebuild' the - Stqireme court of the United States caused a se­rious split jn the President’s sup­ port and it was immediately there­after that threats were forthcoming about those who had refused to go along on Ifae court reorganization. About the time that fight was in its most bifter stage, it will be remem­ bered, Senator Guffey of Pennsyl­ vania made a radio speech in which he attempted to kick certain Demo­ crats out of the party. The White House denied any connection with Uiat speech, but there were few who believed Smiator Giiffey was acting on his own initiative. That is to say, it appeared to be a New Deal policy, for the Pennsylvania Demo­ crat often has served as the mouth­piece in that way. There was comparative quiet for awhile, but those with ears to the ground noted many minor rum­blings that, to the political wise, could mean only one thing. Those rumblings- presaged another earth­quake. They are increasing in in­ tensity, too. We hear them from many directions. Young James Roosevelt, son and secretary of the President who is just now serving on a tour of duty as a lieutenant-colonel in the marine corps, was in Florida last month. While there he'took occasion to say publicly that Sen. Claude Pepper, a New Dealer, ought to be renomi­nated and re-elected. Well, Senator Pepper is such an ardent New Deal­ er that he once said if anyone want­ ed to know his position all that was needed was to ascertain Mr. Roose­ velt’s views—because he would sup­port the President on.any question. I am told from sources that .I believe have an understanding of the Florida situation that young Mr. Roosevelt’s endorsement may be the deciding factor in a close race. That is to say, the race was so tight between Senator Pepper and the able young Rep. Mark Wilcoz that one guess was as good as an­other. Now,- however, Representa­tive Wilcox is asking the voters whether they shall determine who their senator shall be or whether they shall be told by the White HoUse. It is said that broad re­ sentment already has been creat­ed; so much resentment, indeed, -that, recently Mt. Wilcox made the statement- that' no campaign would be: necessary on his' behalf if only “Sistie” mid “Buzzie” Dan, grand­children of .President Roosevelt, would give Smator Pepper their en­dorsement. , Over in Pennsylvania another kind of a situation has-bobbed up. _ - . . . In; that state, thePenntylvoma Iwsses have had Situation: trouble ; agreeing on their ' candi­dates, and finally they took their troubles to the White . House.- (I mean the Democratic bosses, which have supplanted - the Republican bosses who used to rule Pennsyl­vania.) The result, of. the White House confab -was that Governor Earle will run for Democratic nom­ination to the senate so he will be alongside another New Dealer, Sen­ ator Guffey, and Charles A. Jones, Pittsburgh attorney, was picked as the nominee for governor. These selections were made by the state committee, which is controlled, ,of course, by New Dealers, and there­fore those are about the only names of importance that will be voted on in the statewide primary, But the significance of these thingsvis not so apparent until it is known that two or three important -Democrats in Pennsylvania have*, withdrawn and have “retired from -politics” as a result of the situation. . liow, in Indiana,, there, is- still an­ other picture. It is probably the most interesting of any now taking shape, In the Hoosier state, we are .started off with an announcement from the .steps of the White .House by. Governor Townsend that “ Van Nuys must go.” He referred to the Democratic Senator Van Nuys who had the temerity to oppose the President's court packing bill and who. generally is regarded as-much more, of a Democrat than his col­league, Senator Minton, who re­ mains inside the New Deal fence always. The Indiana picture is further complicated by' the smoke rings Paul McNutt is blowing around, fair. McNutt, a former governor of the Btate and now high commissioner . to the Philippine commonwealth, is running for the NCw Deal nomina­tion for the Presidency lfice the well- known jackrabbit. He says,- how­ ever, that he is not a candidate for anything. It is a statement that' is hard to believe because the McNutt airplane flight from the remote is­lands, the speeches across the Unit­ ed States, foe free food—free.-drink —free publicity party given for fair. IIcNutt at SnlOufstanding Washing­ton hotel—all combine to spell the launching of a political, boom of some kind. So, in Indiana, the Dem­ocratic state committee soon will be setting up a slate of its choice— and that choice will be satisfactory to . the President. It means that these will be New Dealers. That is apparent because of the death sen­tence already pronounced for Sen-, •ator Van Nuys. Of course, Mr. Van Nuys isn’t Ucked yet, but that is the picture.• • • Then, the Indiana situation is, or ought to be, of great interest to the ' , , RepubUcans. I amM erettt told that if the G. O. P. Democratic com­ mittee, controUed as it is, should ditch Seaatov Van Nuys, he may decide to fun as an independent candidate for re-elec­ tion. He probably would not get anywhere in ' a machine controlled state like Indiana, but he might draw enough away from the Demo­cratic vote to enable a Republican to win. Now, out in Indiana there is a right up-and-coming . young fighter on the RepubUcan team. He is Rep. -Charles HaHeck. By virtue of the fact that he is Tone RepubUcan con-, gressman from Hoosier. territory, Mr. HaUeck is in a splendid posi­ tion to set off some fireworks. Mr. HaUeckishighlyregardedbyDem- ocrate and Republicans in the house. He is young, vigorous and keen. Furthermore, Mr. Halleck is neither a conservative nor a radical, and we are hearing more and more of a swing in the country that proto- ably will land our 'poUtical policies in' the middle of toe road, instead of on toe wild-eyed programs of most New Dealers or toe moss- backed poHcies of hide-bound Re­publicans of yesteryear. As I see the picture in Indiana, therefore, • it is not impossible to conjure up. a situation in which the New Deal attempt to drive Senator Van Nuys fooin politics would back­ fire to toe extent of electing a Re- pubUcan senator. . Kentucky also provides a battle­ ground. In that state, I think Newr Dealers made a great mistake and it may eventuate that tha mistake WiU cost them dearly. Senator Barkley, the Roosevelt spokesman in the senate, is going to have to fight bis hardest to win renomina- tion over Gov. “Happy” Chandler. Kentuckians here who know the pol­ itics of their -home state teU me, that the governor is a real chaUen-. ger and that he is a campaigner of - genuine abiUty.B B B CCncerning toe New Deal mis­ take: it wfil be remembered when „ _ , Mr. Roosevelt in-new Mfeat terfered in senate Error affairs by indicat­ ing, his choice for toe leadership upon toe death of , the great Senator Robinson of Ar­ kansas. That was toe occasion when toe President wrote to Senator Barkley, addressing him as-“ Dear Alben,” and thereby attached a ti­tle that has proved such a source of levity. When it became apparent ' that fair. Barkiey would meet oppo­sition, toe New Deal promoted a tes­timonial dinner for toe senator and . sent numerous- New Deal wheel- horses to LouisviUe to attend. : Among them was Marvin McIntyre, assistant secretary to the President. WeU, toe Chandler folks bufit up a testimonial limcheon for the gover­nor on the same day. Although Mr. McIntyre reached . Louisville in time, he "just could not make it” to get to the Chandler luncheon. So that was that, and hundreds of Ken­ tuckians at once decided that the: New Deal was going to have Mr.- Barkley and that made'them say - to themselves that they would choose their senator. It is of such, incidents that poUtical victories and poUtical defeats are made. Another, battleground yet to be mentioned is Iowa. Smiator- Gil­lette was among those who did not like toe President’s court reorgani­ sation scheme, and said so. £>om there on, he . has been a marked ' man. He wfil have to fight for renomination, therefore, against a - New Dealer—rather, an opponent of New Deal selection. Representative Wearin has announced that he wifi be a candidate for the Democratic nomination. ■■■...•. : J O Westem Newmaper Union.

Growth in Children—Good Redstanee, Vigor; and Endurance in Adults. ^ By C. HOUSTON GOUDISS ’ # Eaet teth St.. Mew Yotfc But only, in recent yearshas its true power been revealed, as a result Cf scientific investigation. ' :, fortunately, we.now know what constitutes sound nutrition, and it is possible for every homemaker to plan mealsthat witt enable her ,family to eat % th e ir w ay to health Topping the list of food es­ sentials are the iroteins. The >utch chemist, Mulder , who hit upon this name, made a wise choice, for it means “to take yfirst place.” And certainly the proteins are first in impor­ tance. For they are the stuff of which our bodies are built; Without them, there would be no life.Every man, woman and child has .a fundamental need for. pro­ tein, because it is an essentia] component of every living ceUand makes up a large part of toe soUds of a muscle eeU. Evidently, a great many of the glandular principles and substances, which control the functions'of the body, are also pro­ tein in character.. : ' Protein is toe only food element that contains nitrogen, and next to water, nitrogen is toe chief con­ stituent of the human body.- Protein Builds Bodies. A new born baby weighs, on an average, from '7 to 7% pounds, and the adult into which it grows may weigh 20 to 30 times as much. The .vast amount of tissue/ neces­ sary to construct a man is built chiefly from protein. : Once toe adult body'is built, however, protein is not' required, for toe growth of new tissues, ex­ cept under certain conditions, such as .during pregnancy, when one is recovering 'from a wasting iU- ness, or when''an-athlete is in training arid the muscles are in­creasing in size. KeepstheBodyinRepair. There is, however, a nudntenanca re­ quirement for protein which‘continues throughout life, end which applies to both children and adults.\Fer the body ; may be compared to a machine, on which it is necessary to make allowance for the wear and tear of parts. Protein is the only substance that will rebuild the millions of celts tdtidt each day cease to function. , Thus, we see that protein per­ forms two. vital services—First, it builds new tissues; second, it re­ pairs worn-out tissues. . The Building Stones of toe Body. Protein is found in many dif­ ferent foods, but unfortunately, not all proteins gre equally valuable. That is because protein is a very complex substance, resulting from toe union of 22 or more' simpler substances containing nitrogen, and CaUed amino acids. These are the true building stones of the body. Some protein foods may have only 7 amino acids represent ed in their substance; others may have as many as 15-or 16, ,and these also may be varied by toe proportions of the kinds present. Proteins Vary in Value. Some of these amino acids are : necessary to build new tissue; . others wfil not: build tissue,' but are capable of repairing worn-out cells. Some protein foods are, therefore,, more valuable' to the body than others.It is absolutely essential that toe homemaker, charged with toe re­sponsibility ot- feeding.: a family, should be able to distingulsh be­tween those types of protein Which i n adequate for bbto growto and repair, and those that are Mly useful for maintenance For if the diet does: not . contain an adequate amount, or the right kind of protein, our bodies will be badly built and they^ynll be im­ properly repaired and cannot wear well. As Dr. Eugene V. McCollum of Johns Hopkins university, the world-famous investigator and dis­ covererfaf ^vitamin^A, putsJt: “Un­ less the right kinds, with respect to the size and' shape, are fiir- nished by the food proteiris, 'the ex­ act pattern-on which the muscle' must be constructed cannot be. formed'and,’ in tfais' case, growth; is interfered with." If you were building a house you would consider nothing less than the finest materials. . You would Imow that cheap lumber and poor­ly made briCkg coifld not produce a lasting building. Bi the same way, you must learn to discrimi­ nate between the various types of protein’used for toe supremely im­portant purpose of buiUfing your children’s bodies, or. keeping adult physiques in perfect:repair. Some'foods cost more than oth­ ers and you should not be guilty of spending hard-earned money fin: expensive protein foods when the same amount of nourishment could be' more economically obtained from an inexpensive source.. Where to Find Protein. Proteins are found in many dif­ ferent foods, bid unfortunately, Only a limited number of foods supply proteins, containing all tha amino acids necessary for both growth and repair. Proteins that wfil build new tissue, as weUas re- place worn-out cells, are known as complete proteins. Bi this class we havemeats, fish, cheese, milk, eggs and some nuts.Other proteins are adequate for repairing worn-out tissue, but wfil not support growth. Such incom­ plete proteiris are found in grains and products made from them, and In the. legumes—that- is peas, beans, lentils; and peanuts.:. The proteins , ot tiiese foods are of high nutritive value, however, and when supplemented with other proteins, Such as those of milk, will meet every bodily ..require­ ment. ' . How Much Protein? The protein requirement varies according, .to size, age, and . the kind of protein foods consumed. To allow for growth, children require twice as much- proton per paund.ef body weight as adults. That is to say. an adult requires daily oneM rtieth of an ounce for each pound of body weight but a child, needs one-fifteenth o f an ounce for eadt.pound c f body weight. The- amount .of -protein food should usually constitute from 10 to 15 per cent of all toe calories taken. U this plan is faithfully fol­ lowed, there Will be . more than enough to take care of every re­quirement,, because. experiments indicate that a man who Weighs 154 pounds, or 70,000 grams, needs a minimum of 44 grams of protein every day. - . Eskimos eat two or three times as much protein as most dwellers in the temperate zone, but that is because ,other foods= are- 'scarce, In the tropics, on toe other hand, the cdnstenption of protein is oft­ en not more toan half that of toe temperate zone. ‘ An Adequate Protein Ration. falfik and eggs are among the ’finest forms of protein,- and they 'shotild have an especially impor­ tant part in the diet, not only of the growing :child but'of invalids, prospective mothers, and toe moth­ er who is nursing a' baby. If the .choice must be betweeri 'mfik and eggs, mfik SfaOuM have first place because, it is usually cheaper in proportion to the food value it sup­ plies. V. In planning the family dietary,’ a safe .rule to keep in mind is to include In toe daily diet: a quart of-milk for every child, a pint for each adult; one egg, one serving of meat,-fish or chicken, one serv­ ing of another protein food such as cheese, dried peas or beans, or a main dishmade with nuts-.You can achieve wide variety; and still provide an adequate pro­tein ration within toe limits , of this rule. For milk may be served as a beverage, in soups, .puddings, and as cream sauce. Eggs = may IOmwise .be varied in their method of "preparation, .or concealed in other foods. There are many fine meats, and toe number of ways in which fresh, canned, frozen or dried fish can be served is legion. Both cheese and nuts make sandwiches, salads and-desserts, as . well-as main course dishes. Peas, beans and lentils can appear as soup, mock roast or croquettes. Grain'; products, which include cereals, macaroni-and bread, may appear -in.any course in the meal. In'planning menus, always, keep bo- fore' yen the ideal that, an adequate amount oL first class protein makes • first clast man, whereas an inadequate amount may lead to Mudted growth, functional nervous diseases, lessened effidtney and A a earlier approach of old aget' In choosing proteins to feed your family—remember that they taka first, place among foods, and that upon'.jheir wise choice rests your future welfare, your destiny—your life!WiWMU-C.

Editor. TELEPHONE 'Entered at the Postoffice in Mocks­ ville, N. C., as Second-class Mail matter, March 3.1903. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: ONE YEAR. IN ADVANCE - * I »» SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - * SO . There isn’t an office ho'der who ever reaches the point where he cannot be defeated. Take Herbert Hooverand Franklin Roosevelt for instance. - • Therearegoifigtobesomewiser folks in this count' y when the people come to a realization of just what has been happening in the past .five years. ' The editor of The Record doesn’t propose to yell himself hoarse trying to nominate and elect a fellow who is too tight to subscribe to and pay for bis county paper. Tbe Hickory Daily Record says President Roosevelt has got the peo- ' pie to thinking. Yes, but" we wouldn’t be allowed to print what some of the thoughts, were. The editor and owner of The Re. cord lives in MocksviIIe and all of the help employed are Mocksville people. . This paper is a ioo-per cent, home owned and operated paper. If you believe in patroniz ing home enterprises you are na tnrally one of our patrons. We wonder what has become of this ‘‘more abundant life” that Tead and beard so much about a few short years ago? The onlv o .who are enjoying this abundant life must be the New Dealers. We can't find any democrats or Repub­ licans who seem to know anything about it. - President Roosevelt has broke one record since he became president— be has spent just about as much money, as all the presidents from George Washington to Woodrow Wilson, and the - country is in as bad shape today as it was before all this money was thrown to the four winds. .And the end is not yet. . Nay, Pauline, there arfc two newspapers in Mocksville. The Record has been here nearly 4 0 years and is still functioning, despite the fact that there have been 15 other eiitors here since we arrived some 31 years ago. The Record has changed hands but one time since it .was established in 1899. Don’t chase us out until North Carolina goes Republican. .We just can’t figure out these New Dealers. Two years ago they were begging and pleading with ; everybody to vote for Senator Josigh Bailey. Well, .most of the folks voted for him and he was re elected • by an overwhelming majority. To­ day these: same New Dealers' are CUssibg1Bailey to a ,fare-you well, and swearing they will- never vote for him again. / When Dan Russell was governor of North Carolina nearly 40 years ago, the .democrats,- from Locke Craige $11 down the line, deplored the crimes that were being com­ mitted in this ’-state, and Aycock declared that Jje sound of the pis­ tol was-heard more often than the song of the mocking bird. Suppose Mr. Craige could come back and take a look now. such sum while' he was president the democrats would' have raised an awful howl, and may have tried to impeach him. Jones For Congress. Solicitor John R. Jones, of North Wilkesboro, was nominated for Congress b y the 8th Congres­ sional Republican Convention, which met a t. Lexington last Tuesday. Up to this time it 'tS not known who the democrats will nom­ inate to oppose Mr. Jone-S as there are several apclicauts 'n the race to succeed Walter Lambeth,. demo­ crat incumbent, who refused to run again. ■ The Republicans have named one of the-' strongest and best known men in this district, and it is need­ less to say that John R. Jones will poll a tremendous vote in the .Nov ember election. Mr. Jones has been .solicitor in this district for the past 12 y-^.ars, and some time ago announced that be would not be a candidate 1 0 succeed himself. Here’s hoping that John R. Jones will be our next Congressman trom the 8th district. Con­ vention.

The ground should be worked deeply and the top three or four inches should be made as fine and loose- as possible.. x A primary cnsideration in planting is to have the soil favor­ ably moist—damp but not wet. If . circumstances demand that you plant when the ground is dry, moisten trenches before' dropping the seed. Use enough water to wet soil, but not enough to cake.To retain moisture after plant­ ing, cover seeds with fine earth and press down firmly.Generally, a temperature be­ tween 65 and 75 degrees ^when ptenting is most favorable.

After telling Serra h ris sending'to' Mexico for his wife and son, whom he has,not seen for eight years, he refuses his aid toward founding the Santa Barbara .Mission, Dona Eulalia agrees to go to California, accom­panied by her duenna. Angusttas. Don Pe­dro sends for Serra, telling him that two priests are on their way from Mexico with Eulalia and young Pedro and that he is leaving -to meet them. Fages engages a - young. Indian girl, Indlzuela, as maid for ‘ Bias. It is Ire-ItheBves Itbe|ereisIs I ofatntaEilteIeen■theW- INSIST ON OENUINE NUiOL Bhthas F°gol.

He is really my little slave. You may run along, Escabellito.” The child rose and darted from the room. ' “A slave I” exclaimed the priest. “Dear God, how pitiful. My poor dark children, slaves! But it is what I would expect of the Governor of the Califomias, in his arrogance.” Eulalia’s hands trembled a little at her stitching. ' “It is not my wish to have him a slave, Padre. It is my husband’s. He . . . he seems to think it befitting my position as his wife, to have an Indian for a Steve. I have always been guiltily uncomfortable with him at my feet. But my husband . . She sighed virtuously^ and shook her head. “Praise. God,- then, your heart is tender toward -the tedians! That cheers me, Senora. I am'most en­ couraged to know your feelings. I had not dared hope for such aid from . . . ” “From the wife of the Governor?” asked Eulalia quickly. Junipero Serra looked at her searchingly.“You may speak openly, frankly, with me, Padre, I feel that. I know what your problems are, and deep­ ly sympathize with you. I would like to help you solve them, if I can.”'The old man leaned eagerly for­ ward, his eyes brightening. , '■■■ “I believe you could do much, Se­ nora la Goberaadora. . .Perhaps,” he - exclaimed as a thought seized upon him, “perhaps it is you ,who have been sent as an answer to all my prayers, instead of those two . . . I can not call them Francis­cans . . . but you know to whom I refer.” . La Gobemadnra laughed nervous­ ly, and dropped her sewing. “Padre mio, that is too much, to call me an answer to prayer. I . . . I really can not “But you are, dear: daughter! I prayed for help to found the Mis­sion Santa Barbara, and you will be my help. Yes, I am sure of it!” His eyes were gleaming. Eulalia rubbed her hands restlessly before the fire.“Father,” she began, then hesi­ tated. “Father, what stands in the way of founding that mission?” “Nothing! The time has been long ripe for it. Nothing stands in the way. But there is one man that H° stopped abruptly, and looked sternly at La Goberaadora. Beneath his glance, she stirred and gather­ing up her needlework crumpled it in her nervous fingers.“I neednotask you who that is.' I . . . I feel . . . that it is my husband. Am I right, Father? ’ '> “So you know it then? Yes, it is he, Senora. The Governor himself, that proud rash man, who arrogant­ ly. believes his vain temporal power can stop the progress of Mother Church. Andthatihemustleamto his sorrow, he can not do!” Eulalia shivered. “Yes, he must Ieam that. But how am I to help him, and you, and the Church?” she asked. “Daughter,” said the priest ear-, nestly, “you are as close to Don Pedro as his very heart. You know how to reach h im . And as a pious God-fearing woman, a true daugh­ ter of the Church, your .prayers will surely be heard. He must be made to see that’ plans must go forward swiftly for Santa Barbara. You must make him see that. I, it seems, can not reach him, through any “A Blessing on This House,”He Muttered. channel, though he has my pray­ ers.”“And if I can not reach him, Padre. What then?” ‘‘Then there must be someone else!” Eulalia took a deep breath..“You mean someone else . . In his place?” ’ “There is no other'way. The Gov­ernor of California must be a man .Willing.to aid and succor the Church at every step. And Don Pedro Fages, unless you can influence him, Senora, is not that man.”La Goberaadora was trembling. When she tried to speak, her voice was lost. With an effort she com trolled herself.„ “Then, that would mean . . . leaving California?”, she asked in almost a whisper. “That would mean his leaving Cal­ifornia. Ah, Senora, if it comes to that, would you be willing, after all the long wearisome journey you have made to this place, to leave it? For the sake of our Holy Mother Church?” ' Eulalia lifted her head with a deep breath. She faced the missionary’s questioning eyes.: that gleamed into hers, bright with fires of new hope. Then she averted her head, and looked into the fire, answering, “I would, for the sake of Holy Mother Church.” Serra lifted his hand toward her in a gesture of blessing. “The Holy Mother- bless you for' that!” he exclaimed in a. happy voice. : “God will reward you' for your unselfishness!” . ' : -Eulalia dared not raise her eyes. That guilty feeling, which had ’as­sailed her at her first meeting with the holy .man made it impossible for her to look at him, even to speak. The priest rose1 slowly.“Now I must depart, Senora la Goberaadora. - It has been : a happy visit, with you, my' good daughter. My heart.is lighter.,for it. God has answered my prayers in sending you here to intercede -with the: Gov­ernor for me . how I am count­ing on your help, Senorar Some­ thing will be done now,'I. know. I have sent messages to the Viceroy begging for more, help for the Mis­sion Santa Barbara. He may grant it . . . he may deny it. But if he denies it, it will need the influence qf the- Governor to bring things about. And there is where you wdl help.” Junipero Serra sighed. “I still have some temporal, some worldly influence, Senora. And if I must, I will use it, to justify my just and holy plans.” , “Of . . . of coursd.” The priest moved toward the door, where Angustias awaited to usher him out. .-“But I will only use that, and very much against my will, if every other channel, gnd your gentle in­ fluence, fails. Ah, but I would hate to! I do not know if you can under­ stand how I feel toward Don Pedro; how, although we "differ on every point in life, I admire, respect, yes,- love him, as a friend . . even a brother.” His voice 'trembled, and his eyes misted. “That is why all this hurts me so deeply, so mortal­ly, for I love the man. - Ah, well, you do not understand.- Tell his Excellency for me, that he has my sincere, earnest prayers, and to lis­ten.to his wife’s gentle . counseL Will you, Senora?” The lady nodded' dumbly. “Adios, Senora la Goberaadora.” Again he blessed the house and, fol­lowed by Pio, was soon swallowed up in the fog.When he had gone, Eulalia pulled closer to the fire. She cast her sew­ing impatiently on the floor.“Escabellito!” she called sudden­ ly, “where' are - you, little imp? Come, get here where you belong!” The child scurried to his place be­neath her feet.It was thus the Governor found her when he came into the palacib, his beard and eyebrows beaded with fog. • “Junipero Serra has been here,” she said slowly. ‘?He has? What did he say?’? ques­ tioned, the Governor eagerly. “He . . . he . . . ” die hesi­tated. “He .is impossible: Nothing can be done, I am. afraid. It is hope­less for. you, or for me, to try to move;him.” “I was afraid of that. ' He left no word, nd message?” , • “None.’' ' The Governor sighed, v ' CHAPTER XV In the cell that - was their quar­ters at Carmelo, Fray Mariano Rubi and Fray Bartolome Gili were indulging themselves in a little rec- reation. It was only a tiny adobe cubicle,- but the two friars were, able, through their peculiar talents, to amuse themselves wherever they chanced to be. No. spot was too small or too grand, too low or too lofty.Fray Mariano sprawled on- the boards of his celibate'cot. Fray Bar- totoihe was poring .over a stained half-finished letter that, lay before him on the wine-stained table. “Yes,” he said thickly, “it is well I got this away from Fray Juni- pero in time, hr it might have been finished and dispatched to Mexico. Then where would we have been?' Eh, answer me, can’t you,' you . . . ”Fray Mariano scratched himself. “I don’t know, where we would have been. In limbo, probably. How did you get this letter.from his Sanc­ timonious Reverence?” “Ha! What a glorious strategist I am,-Brother!” the other replied. “Listen well. It was this way. Fray Junipero had called me to his room. I' went. He was reading all the dis­patches that arrived this morning on the San Antonio. He had his spec­ tacles -on his nose, and his face was very intent, so that he did not see me at first. I made a little noise. A-hemmed, you know, very softly and respectfully.” The other sniggered. “Yes, I can imagine how.” “Then be looked up, and told me to wait a moment, that he had been writing a report'about you and me to the Father Guardian in Mexico, and wished to speak to me about it. I was worried, and hard put to wait patiently. -So I stepped outside the cell, and met an Indian. You know him, Estevanico.”, Fray Mariano stretched himself on his cot. “Indeed I do. . He is the sweet ne­ ophyte from whom I won this nice blanket at gambling. Go on.” “The very one. So I whispered to him, and plotted a little plot. He was to: steal the father’s spectacles. Steal them,"you understand, so that Fray Junipero could see -to write no more letters! Wasn’t that a beau­tiful plot?” The other grunted a grudging ad­miration. “But what is he to get for doing that?” he asked suspi­ ciously;“Oh, I am to give his blanket back to him, - the one you won. But then ...”• “You are! ■ Just try . . .”“Ah, be quiet. I said I would. That is all. So in a moment he slipped into the cell and watched the father writing.. Now of.course you understand the father treats all those' louse-ridden Indians like fa­vorite sons, so when he saw this one standing there, he took off his spectacles and asked him what he wiished.” “The Indian expressed a great curiosity about the spectacles. ‘What are they?’ he asked, ‘and do you see God through them?’ And then . . . well,. . .” . . - “Well, the father said yes, I sup­ pose. Continue.” “Yes, he said he saw God every* where, with the glasses or without." He stopped a moment thoughtfully. “What if he does see God?” he asked abruptly with a little shiver. “Don’t be a superstitious baby,” the other snarled. “Get on with your story.” “Then the Indian said, *1 want to see' God!’ Oh, it waS wonderful; Brother, so cute, so sly, just like a spoiled child! So he snatched up the' spectacles and put them over his nose. He began to leap and dance.” The friar began illustrating his story. “Up and down, thus, with' the spectacles hanging from his greasy ears, flinging his hands about and shouting, ‘I see God! I see God!’. He circled around and around until he reached the door, then he scrambled out, still shout­ing, and was gone in a trice!’’ ,“ And what did the father do?” 1 “He-ran to the door to a panto, calling Estevanico back. And when he saw he had' gone, he shook .his head and said, ‘Poor little one, he doesn’t know he. has .taken his fa­ ther’s eyes.’ ”' i !TO BE CONTINUED) D e a d ly C a r G a s S trik e s o n th e O p e n H ig h w a y a s W e ll a s in C lo se d G a r a g e Statisticians : meet a stone wall when they attempt to determine how many other dives , are lost each year, directly or indirectly, from the effects of carbon monoride gas. It can ,strike on the open road, as well as in the closed garage, and to the- former' case, says the Public Safety Magazine,.. the victim sel­ dom has any idea of what is wrong with him. He feels dizzy, loses control of his car, and smash! he goes into an­ other motorist,. a pedestrian, or a fixed object: When questioned by police he , rarely knows the real cause of the accident. The drowsy feeling may be -in­ duced .by carbon monoxide fumes escaping from leaks in-the exhaust manifold or. muffler and creeping up into the driver’s face through cracks in the floor board.Carbon monoxide may .also find its way in the passenger compart­ ment of a car: that is following an­ other auto too closely. Particularly to heavy traffic, it is- possible for'a car to pick up a suf­ ficient quantity of exhaust gas from the vehicle preceding.it to result to a dangerous mixture to the sec­ ond car.If the- drowsy feeling resulting from the: absorption . of small:con-- centrations of carbon monoride de-. lays the mental reaction time of .a driver traveling 50 miles an - hour , by so much as half a . second, his car will travel 37 feet during that, time. . It is quite possible that many un­ explained traffic accidents cam be laid, at least indirectly, at the Tloor of carbon monoxide.The National Safety council’s ad­ vice to fighting the danger of carbon monoxide! poisoning is to get plenty of fresh air—never start a car in a Closed garage—and always have at. least one window partly open when driving, even on the coldest days. ■ . RubyFirstJew eIM ade for the General Trade The ruby was- the first precious stone to be manufactured commer­cially; according to a writer to the Washington Post: It issimply oride of aluminum with a small: amount of oxide of chromium, which gives to it the brilliant red color. Many methods of making the ruby were tried from 1870 to 1890,. all more or less successful from the chemi­cal standpoint, but. failures from the commercial point of view. - It happened, however, that - rubies appeared on the market of Geneva, whose origin could not -be accounted for. ■ As a matter of fact,-a curate of Geneva had. succeeded in .fusing chips of natural ruby given him by the' lapidaries into large stones. This brought.about a-revival in-the synthesis of the-ruby, 'for it was argued that if ruby, chips could be fused, the oxide of aluminum, of which they are composed, could be. • Professor Veraeuti, the famous French.chemist, finally succeeded to making the ruby.

Frank Wishart is running for sheriff of Robeson coun'y on a streamlined platform that is full of promises; that ought to get him votes going a n d coming—from those who believe in bis promises, but. more particularly from those who don’t, as strange as that - may seem. For ibstance he “promised” that no .prohibitionist or “liquor group” shall tell him what he must or must Hot do; that before making liquor raids-he’ll give the ’leggers ample time to remove their goods to.a.safe place, providing they keep him and and bis deputies supplied with their favorite blends; He is willing tp promise any­ thing and everything, up to and in­ cluding the'election. After that he reserves the right to consult with and follow the orders of “not less than one and hot -more than three of the county's undefeated politi­ cians who have a regular seat at the pie-counter.” He promises further, that “if a parked automobile should be found* occupied by a lady’s husband he will accept ‘bush money’ and say notuing about it;” and finally: “My deputies and rural police, who will form my cabinet, will .be men of strong ‘backs’ and weak ‘minds (myself included) who will delig- entlyand sincerely carry out my platform.” Of course the candidate’s consti tutents will recognize the sarcasm, but it would not be surprising if they elected him sheriff over the big'field of contenders. There is little difference between this platform of Frak Wishajt and that of others who covet to be high sheriff of other counties, except that the: latter may be depended upon to follow this creed without, putting it in writing. They simpiy tOllow Wishart, but In reverse, so far as promises ate concerned.— Statesville: Daily. ■ Vandenberg Probable v G. O.P. Nominee.

For the vio'ation of the prohibition law the total was 2,081 . .

Cooleemee Plantation;; Unfortunately many ot ) North Carolina’s old plantation ’houses were destroyed, during the Civil War.or have beetr abanndoned in the years that have followed. ’ A charming exception to this: is the Cooleemee Plantation on the River near Mocksville. The present owner, Mr. Peter Hairston, - has agreed to have “open house” : dur­ ing Garden Fort-nigbt. Cooleemee Plantation was bought in 1815 by Major Peter ’ Hairstoo, an American Major in the Revolu­ tion, and the great.; great grand­ father of the present owner.‘ The house, however, was bui'-t. by Ma­ jor Peter Hairston of the Confe. derate army-. It was,begun;in 1850 and completed in 1854.: ,The bricks were .made on the plantation ; but the woodwork and other; materials were brought , by boat from Phila­ delphia to Fayetteville and !.hauled from there by wagons. . Confederate Major Hairston was married to Columbia Stuart, cf Virginia, a sister of the yaliat Con­ federate cavalryman, General J. E. B. -Stuart. The General often visited bis sister at , Cooleemee. The house is constructed of stucco brick in the form of a cross. The porches - are semicular in . shape, supported by Ionic columns.. The hail is octagonal and contains, a graceful spiral stairway with a de­ licate mahogany rail. The wood­ work and plastering in the rooms is is especially artistic and the honse is furnished throughout with heir looms. A drawing from Godey’s Ladies Book of 1850 shows this plantation honse, described as an Anglo-Grecian villa. This draw­ ing now hangs in the hall.

Knox Predicts New DealIs Done. Charlotte. March 16.—North Caro­ lina Republicans heard Colone Frank Knox 1936 vice presidential candidate severely assail the Mew Deal .at the outset of their biennial convention here today and then set in motion machinery for the coming campaign. Knox hailed the. past week as “dis astrous" for the New Deal because be said congress had shown “it would no longer be the tool of a chief execu­ tive in a “vindicative and punitive mood.” He demanded an investigation of the TVA and said the major question before the American people today was whether they wanted to live in a democracy with free'competition or under a planned economy and so preme executive authority.. Sound Sens* Here. 'About half the time spent in the county j ails and . penitentiaries of the’state is for public intoxication. It costs $1 a day to house any jail Inmatev T h e average habitual drunk is not a criminal. Jailing serves. the drunk no reformatory purpose, He keeps, coming . back. .It seems about time, therefore, to begin to think of some more sensible’ way thau jailing of caring for the drunks which every county, has and which, with present methods of, dealing with the liquor problem, will undoubtedly increase. • The New York State Association of Magistrates thinks it has tbe an­ swer—the answer both from the pojnt of view of finance and of re- babilit ,tion. This answer is special camp, where it has been Shown, the drunic can be cared for for about half the cost of jail care.; and where through healthful outdoor work in reforestation and the'like, thete- is some chance, at least, of■ rehabili­ tation.

It * provides $t 25,000 for.such a camp. After the: camp is established,, the cost of(: mainten­ ance of its inmates would be. : borne by each county concerned.

Dyson, of R. _i, a few davs ago tbat they Were having fine weather jn Montana, and tbat tbe winter just coming, to a close, was the mildest in years. The tempera­ ture dropped to' 18 degrees below, zero just before Christmas; but it did not remain cold but a few days. Cattle grazed on the ranches until January, and had'to be fed only a- bout' two months, rand since the snows are gone theyare on pasture again. Mr. Dyson writesjthat they have had but one goodycrop year in the past five years on account of the drought. . He says that hund­ reds of farmers have moved out of Montana, and that the' population in his section of the 'state' has ,de­ creased about half—that the farm­ ers secured loans from the Govern ­ ment and could not repay the IoanA thus losing their farms. The Re­ cord would be glad to welcome Mr. Dyson and family back to the Old North State and the good old home cotjnty of Davie, where it not odIv rains every few days but poors fre­ quently, and where most folks shun Government loans as they would a rattlesnake.

But the father did not notice. He seemed quite' distressed, and dismissed me, say­ ing he would call for me again. And here is the letter.”“Read it.” “There is- the usual preamble. Then- it goes on thus: rUpon reach­ ing here these padres withdrew themselves. They passed the day in sleep and idleness and the night in outrages, disturbing the repose of those who, having spent the day in work, must needs, sleep at night: They behaved, indeed, like sons of darkness; breaking the jars where the chocolate of the community is kept, stealing the chocolate-pots to beat them for drums, and appropri­ ating the balls which were kept by the community for the recreation of the religious, bowled them through the dormitories at unseasonable hours of the night, with result to the religious of terror and confu­ sion. And they scaled the walls of. the mission establishment by night, scarcely on deeds of virtue bent . . .’ ” “Scarcely!” crowed Pray Mari­ano, sitting up on the edge of his cot and rocking back and forth. “Scarcely! Ai, por Dios, that isfine! Brother, you did a noble deed to get that letter!” The other rose and walked over to the table, and poured wine for both of them. “Now I want to speak of something else seriously to you. The other day when the Governor and his party were here at the mission for the confirmation of his spoiled little Ex­ cellency, young Pedro, I overheard many things. One of them was that, because you and I had not turned out to be the shining lights Junipero Serra had hoped us to be, the found­ ing of the Mission Santa Barbara could not take place.” He gazed sternly at the other.' “Oh, tut, tut, tut. Aren’t you ashamed, Brother?" “Stop it, hypocritical wretch! So t have been thinking that if we mended our ways, things might turn out so that we could be, if not actually the founders of that mis­ sion, at least those in charge of it. Is that not worth thinking about?” Fray Rubi gazed open-mouthed in admiration. “Splendid! Oh, what a brother have I! What a mind, what a soul! Yes, let us do that. I shall be Fa­ ther Superior, and you shall be my subordinate.” “Oh, no!, I shall be Father Supe­rior, and you the subordinate . . . I am . . . ” “No, I shall be superior, you mis­ begotten dog!” Fray Rubi dashed his wine-cup at GiU’s face. The other screamed, and reached blindly before him, but Rubi had retreated to a comer, for in the doorway stood the Father President, looking in at them, shielding with a protective gesture, the Indian youth, Pio.For a moment the padre stared at the two, then covering his eyes with his hands, stumbled away,: limping painfully to his own cdl. As though his legs could not support him, he,sank on his'knees beside his bed,' and resting his head on the rough uncovered planks, wept. Pio stood awkwardly beside him, watching compassionately the thin heaving shoulders. / “Padre mio,” he said at last very softly. “Padre mio, come, Pio is here beside you. Do not grieve, Father.” He laid a timid brown hand on the priest.Junipero Serra raised his ravaged face to the Indian.“Yes, Pio, you are beside me. Thank God for that. Thank God for you, my own, my true little son.” He allowed Pio to lift him to the cot.“Pio,” he groaned, “I have been a sinner. I have failed, somewhere, somehow, or else I would not be how forsaken. I had gone to those two with love and forgiveness in my heart, to beg them to help me, to be my eyes, since my spectacles are gone. And you saw them, Pio. Your innocent eyes saw them. Ah, why have they been sent to me, for I do not remember any sin I have committed black enough to deserve them as a punishment.” “No, Father! Say it not! Yvu are no sinner.” ‘’Dear son.” The father smiled faintly. “Little loyal one. You are all I have, Pio, it seems. Every­thing else !stalling away from me; my right of confirmation, my be­ loved mission to Santa Barbara, my friendship with Don Pedro and. now these messages that have come to? day, denying me even hope .for the future. Pio,” he said suddenly, “you can read?” . •“A tittle, Father.” . "GoodvYou shall-read to me the dispatches that arrived on the San Antonio. You who have been my legs, must now be my eyes.. I have looked at these letters once, ,but I can scarcely see . . . so read, my son, and carefully. I. may have been mistaken when I read them.” The boy read, slowly, painfully, stumbling over, the stilted official phraseology of ihe letters from the Viceroy, and the Father Guardian in Mexico. There was no hope for the Mis­sion Santa Barbara. The Governor, Don Pedro Fages, had not recom­ mended the idea. It was regret­table the two Franciscans, Fray Mdiano Rubi and Fray Bartolome Gili, were unsuitable, but it was hard to get decent men to leave Mexico, and go to the distant province of California. There was a friendly personal let­ ter from the Father Guardian, but that gave Junipero Serra no com­fort. Serra was warned against us­ ing his temporal influence, as there were rumors abroad that the mis­ sions in Cahforaia wore to be turned over to the Order. M Dominicans, and the Franciscans returned to Mexico. .. . "No, no,” faltered the Fanciscan. “No, Pio, you do not read that tru­ ly! California to be delivered to Qie Dominicans? But California .is San Francisco’s own country . . . cho­sen by his . own wish .' . . never should it be in other hands than “Slipped It Into the Sleeve of N My Habit.”those of the Brothers of San Fran­ cisco! Ah, it is just a rumor . . . it could be nothing else, God forbid Qiat it should!” > Sarra clasped his hands and was still. “Are there no more letters?” he asked calmly. “ Here is one, but it is not from Mexico, Padre. It is from his Ex­ cellency.” “Don Pedro! Read it.*: The note was curt, brief. The Governor had received dispatches from Mexico, regarding'the found­ ing of the KBssion Santa Barbara, and he presumed the holy father had, received the same intelligence. 'I t was unfortunate the holy father had not seen fit to communicate with him, or shown any disposition to en­ ter again upon friendlier relations. He himself and La Gobernadora, with an escort,- were leaving on the San Antonio when She sailed for the Presidio and Mission of San Francisco,- where Ia Gobernadora would be confined by the eminent doctor who was stationed there. And Qiat was all. . The father rose painfully fromhis cot, and stood in the center of the little cell, his hands outflung .to Heaven. "Deserted! Betrayed! The face of all mankind is turned against me, but Thou, O Father, .art with me! Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me! Thou ait with me always. . . ” “And L Padre,” whispered Pio, kneeling at the father’s feet *T am with you, always.” . The MisriiHiaiy put one.: hand on Qie Indian’s/bowed head,/and with the other still upraised, stood, with rapt face, his lips murmuring pray­ ers. Pio could feel the heat of the trembling hand even through the thick thatch of his hair, and dose to the father as he.was, could fed his limbs trembling. At last Serra spoke to.him: “ It to finished, Pio. And. if -all the years that I have toiled have brought me nothing else, it is enough that you are here,, simple, loving, righteous. Pio mio.” He smiled at the boy; and turned again to his cot. He lmelt beside it. “But, Padre; will , you not lie down?” questioned the anxious boy.: “This attitude is ‘ more com­ fortable, son, for it is one to which my body is more familiar than any other. . Pio, will/you try to find Estevanico, and /bring . back my spectacles to me?For now I have many, many letters to write, and. the time is getting short, ay, short.” Pio tightened the red sash, around his waist and straightened proudly. “Father, it shall be ,done. At once.” He dashed out of the cell, through the mission grounds, and in the direction of the village of the gentile'Indians. Junipero Serra did not feel the hard floor beneath his knees, nor the hard boards on which his head rest­ed. He was pondering deeply, sad­ly, praying to keep the bitterness from his thoughts.He began dreaming of the past, of his earlier days in California.'Episodes which he had forgotten long since came into his mind. His first baptism of an Indian child, the sweetness of a hedge of wild roses along a newly broken “trail, s sunset glow on the white peaks of the lofty -sierras. With, each of these impres­ sions came the figure of Pedro Fages, whose eyes saw the same beauty, and whose heart loved it as he did. “Ai, mi companero,” he-sighed, “you have deserted me. Friend, brotiier.” The room grew dark. A swallow darted in the low doorway, circled the cell and flew out with a silky rus­ tle of swift wings. Junipero Serra smiled. , “Father Francis . . . ” he whis­pered, “Father Francis . . . I rec­ ognize thy messenger . . . ” Then he lay very still. Into the room, after a long while, darted *Pio, as swiftly and noise­ lessly as the swallow,.“Padre mio!” he crowed, “Padre mio!. Look, your spectacles!” There was no answer from the priest. Pio leaned over him breathlessly. “Look,” he said, “I have them, your spectacles, Father.” At last Serra stirred. “Ah, bless you, my child?” he said in a faint voice. "Now light the candles for there is work to be done.”Pio lighted the candles. If the father had not been so engrossed in his own thoughts he would have seen Qie youth’s face was bleeding, that one eye was dosed, and that his hair was standing wildly on his usually sleek head. The father fitted his spectades over his ears, took them off, and adjusted the steel bows a bit, wiped the square lenses with the corner of his brown robe and picked up his quilL He must summon his brethren to him. First there were those staunch countrymen of his, Fermin Lasuen, Francisco Palou, islanders like him­self. Ah, but Crespi. . . but lately he had been laid to rest beneath the altar. of the church here at Carmel. And Jose Antonio Murguia, the Builder . . but he too now slept in the beautiful church’ at San­ta Clara, which he had builded, and whose dedication he had not lived to see. So many of the pioneer Francis­ cans were dead, Garces, El Pedes- triano, killed by the very Indians whose souls he was.bent on saving; and that other martyr of the early days-of the Mission San Diego, FTay Luis Jaime, whose-body, stripped, bruised, bloody, and piercediwith ar­ rows, had been found after an Indian raid, with. only the consecrated hands left unscathed. Junipero Serra sighed deeply, and breathed a prayer for those sainted souls. California had exacted her toll from Qie Franciscans . . . but there were' many left, praise God. And to them he must write; to KBa sion San Buenaventura, San Gabri­ el ArrangeIfSan Jiun Capistrano, San Diego/de Alcala, Santo Clara, Sim Luis Obispo de Tolosa, San An­tonio de Padua, and San Francisco de Asis. -' " ' As he leaned over the table his head was light with fever, and the quill in his hand shook. For amo- ment he needs must lay his head down on the clean page before him, and close his eyes. Yet he must write . . . though well he knew Qiose brothers of the farther mis­ sions would , never reach him in time. But Palou, his closest broth­er, his Mallorcan countryman . . . he must come. He roused himself and started writing, ending the let­ter, “Good Brother Palou, come and assist me to die!” For hours into the night, the little cell was quiet accept for the scratching of the pen, and the gentle clicking of his rosary when he rest­ed from his writing. Once Pio slipped in, and put fresh candles in the candle-sockets. He curled up at the father’s feet, and was soon asleep. As he wrote a white fog moved silentbr in from the sea, traveling inland to the great valleys of the Salinas, the San Joaquin, Qie Sacra­ mento, drowning all things in thick white vapor. Along the far-flung coast, golden beaches, shingly strands, jutting promontories and forbidding rocks the tides of morn­ ing raced. The letters were finished, all but one. Junipero Serra walked to a wooden shutter, opened it to the cold dawn. A breath of fog drifted into Qie cell like a wraith, and warmed itself at the candles. He seated himself again. With a prayer he pulled a clean page to­ ward him, and wrote slowly: “To Be Delivered After My Death.“To His Esteemed Excellency, Don Pedro Fages, Gobemador-Gen- eral Cf the Californias, Baja and Alto.”Lifting his spectacles, he wiped .away some tears that had gathered beneath the thick lenses, then wrote, "My beloved son . . .”Just as he finished,. .Pio awoke, and the swallows were' aware that it was dawn. Junipero; Serra read the letter, sighed, and signed it with hiis rubric:_ “Fr. Junipero Serra.” CHAPTER XVI Don Pedro Fages agreed with An- gustias that it was indelicate for La Gobernadora to be confined by a physician, a man.* But the lady her­self,- when she learned that a very learned man of medicine was sta­ tioned at the Presidio of San Fran­cisco, made up her mind that.she would not remain in Monterey, to be delivered by the midwife from the Mission Carmelo, who also de­ livered the Indian women.The Governor himself, greatly worried by the news he bad re« ceived from Mexico concerning the possibility of the missions of Cali­fornia being put under the guardian­ ship of Qie Dominican Order,* felt the need of discussing the Situation with Junipero Serra’s countryman, Francisco Palou, the 'Mallofcan, at San Francisco. Fray Palou was wise, liberal, friendly, and with him Don Pedro felt he could discuss his impasse with Serra, and other mat­ ters. {TO BE CONTINUED) P u z z le o f F o ld in g P a p e r M a p s C a n Be* S o lv e d b y J u s t D o in g th e B e st Y o u C a n Hck up the map by the upper corners and let it hang down in front of you.'

AMQe -The measurement to which we usually refer by-this name is what can be more particularly called the statute mile. It equals eight fur­longs each of 220 yards, - or 5,280 feet-in all -. There is another mile— the geographical or nautical. This mile is one-sixteenth of a degree of latitude,. or 6,085 feet. The word comes to us from the Latin word “mille,” meaning a thousand, says London/ Answers Magazine. The Roman mile was 1,000 paces. They measured, a pace as the !distance between the points where-the same heel came'down in making, a stride. The Roman pace—whiCh we should regard as two paces—was reckoned at about five feet. This made -the Roman mile—5,000 - feet—noticeably shorter than the mile measurement we use today.

TELEPHONE Bntered at the Poatoffice in Mocks- vllle, N. C., as Second-class Mall matter. March 3.1903. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: OSE-YEAR. IN ADVANCE - * I OO SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - * SO A new broom sweeps clean, It soon wears out. but At least a few folks found out last week tbat Mocksville has two newspapers. It has been said of old tbat it takes a thief to catcb a tbief. Some of our folks evidently believe in this old saying. Yes, we remember what happened in 1922 and 1930. Who doesn't. Whv remind us of these unpleasant bygone days. ' Those who mean to run for office in Davie couuty in 1938, have but 24 days left in which to file their names and fees with the chairman of Jthe board of county elections. Up to this good hour the filings have been conspicuous for their absence. We have been reading the Wins­ ton-Salem Iourual for many years, and have admired the stand that paper has always taken on prohi­ bition and the evils of the liquor traffic. We were amazed recently when we saw a big whisky adver­ tisement staring us in the face in this leading newspaper. . The Re­ cord is sorry its neighbor has to carry liquor ads The Record is one paper tbat preaches prohibition and practices what it preaches. No liquor, wine or beer advertisements appear in this paper. It is the only paper in the county tbat strictly adheres to this rule. We cannot insist on our readers voting and drinking dry in one column and in­ sist on them buying intoxicants' in another column. Hundreds of voters from all sec­ tions of Davie county are getting warmed up over the coming' pri­ mary, which will be held in about two months. Many of them are expressing themselves freely, Poli tics is warming np somewhat in the good old county of Davie. Candi dates for the various county offices have less than four weeks in which to file their names with T. P. Dwig gins, county chairman of the board of elections. Thefilingfeesareone per cent of the first year’s salary. The filing fees have been raised to such a point that many persons can’t raise the necessary amount of cash to file for some of the better paying jobs. It costs a candidate for Congress $100 to get ’ his name in the pot; a Solicitor $50, a sheriff from $20 to $50, and a clerk super, ior court from $15 to $5 0 , accord, ing to salary received. County commissioners, justices of the peace surveyors, coroners and' township constables are only taxed one frog skin to get in the race. Poor folks can run for these smati offices. Sales Rites Held Friday Funeral services for Lonnie Sales who died in a Salisbury hospital Wednesday night after cutting hia throat with a razor blade at his home in Coaleemee about noon Tuesday, were held Friday afternoon at the Baptist church. - The service waB conducted by the pastor, Rev.

The ‘German reich has acquired 32,369 square miles of ter­ritory and 6,732,000 more inhabitants. , Arthitt Seyss-Inquart rules the Austrian state after the enforced resignation of President Miklas and Chancellor Schuschnigg. Such is the concrete result of Hit­ ler’s startlingly sudden invasion of Austria and seizure of power there. His coup was well planned and it was carried out with a swiftness that demonstrated the speed with which motorized troops can act. When Schuschnigg announced a plebiscite on Austrian independence, the Fuehrer rushed his soldiers across the border by motor and air­plane and within a few hours they were in possession of all govern­ ment buildings and strategic points. Schuschnigg, helpless, broadcast to the Austrian people the word that he and President Miklas were yielding to “brute force” in order to avoid bloodshed. Then both of them re­signed at the demand of Seyss-In- quart. Great Britain and France filed strong protests against the German coup, but their notes were scorn­fully rejected by. the Berlin foreign office. The British showed no in­clination to go further in defense of Austria, and France, just then without a government, could do nothing because Premier-designate Blum could not be assured of the support of both the Socialists and the Communists in the chamber of deputies. Italy, taken by surprise like the rest of the world, was supposed to be in a tight place; but after Hitler, in a personal letter to Mussolini, promised that German expansion would stop at the Italian frontier, the Fascist grand council' gave its approval to the Fuehrer’s coup d’etat. Hitler Goes to Yieiim T) ETURNING in triumph to the land of his birth, Hitler first visited the graves of his parents and then, standing bareheaded before a. cheering throng in Ianz he proclaimed the union of Ger­ many and Austria, declaring this had been his divine mis­ sion. He announced a plebiscite on Ap­ ril 10 to seek the ap­proval of Austrians for all. the. acts of their new govern- ment. Moving w . through many towns *uuer and cities, the Fuehrer’s motor car­avan finally reached Vienna, and that once proud city, now just a provincial capital of a German state, went wild with joy in greeting its master. Swastikas and troops were everywhere, and iiot a ‘.single anti- Nazi dared to show his head. ' - Already a “purge” had been started, directed especially against the Jews,>and all people of that race who could' get out of the city were leaving.-. .New laws were passed excluding some 75,000 Jewish law­yers and 60,000 Jewish doctors from practice. The Evangelical church of Austria was united with that of Germany. Hitler took supreme command of the Austrian army and all officers and men took the oath of allegiance to him. On his progress to Vienna Hitler was accompanied or followed- by numerous units of his motorized armies so that when he arrived the city was swarming with German troops. Nazi economists in Berlin were busy planning in detail the econom­ ic future of the .annexed territory. Minister of Economy Walther Funk said that Austria would henceforth participate in the German foiir-year plan for recovery and independence of foreign markets. It . was assumed that Seyss- Inquart would be “minister and president” of the Austrian state, having the same status as the chief executives of Prussia and Bavaria. David LilienthaI lnsist.,on TVA Inquiry TT IXDES not seem likely, at this 4 writing, that the administration can prevent the congressional in­vestigation of the TVA which Chair­ man A. E. Morgan and others have de­ manded. Senators Bridges and King, Representatives Ma­ verick and Snell and various other . con­ gressmen insist that there be a thorough inquiry into the situ­ ation. However, a showdown was post­ poned for a- week when President Roosevelt gave that much time to Chairman Morgan, David Lilienthal and Harcourt Mor­ gan, the directors, to settle their differences. He told them plainly that if they could not do this they should resign from the board.: • For six hours the President tried in vain to induce A. E. Morgan to substantiate if he could the charges he had made against his colleagues, these including the. making of eva­ sive and misleading reports mid “dishonesty of malfeasance” in handling the claims of Berry and others. The chairman steadily re­ fused to offer any evidence in sup­ port of these accusations on the ground that the conference hi the White -House was not and could not be an "effective or fact-finding occa­sion.” He noted in a statement put into the record that he had ’‘repeatedly but unsuccessfully” sought Mr. Roosevelt's co-operation in correct ing "grave conditions” within TVA. Uhenthal and Harcourt Morgan offered- evidence in support of their complaint .that the chairman had pursued '.’obstructionist'' -tactics. No one of .the directors-indicated^ after the conference, that he would resign. It was generally believed in Washington- that the President desired to get A. E. Morgan off the board and that in that case he would make Lihenthal chairman.— *— Mufiny in Russian Army?

Lady Pall* String* in Duee Deal How Pienie at Locarno MadePeaee WHO'S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON NEW YORK.—The absence of sa­lon diplomacy or petticoat poli­ tics in the European struggle for a new power balance would be an oversight by the muse of history, readying th e drama of the century, and at last it seems to have been attended to. Enter Lady Chamberlain, the cleverest woman politician in Eng­land, widow of Sir Austen, obscurely noted in the news as mysteriously busy for the last few months in the British-Italian rapprochement. Several weeks ago, a saga-, cions traveler of this writer’s acquaintance, back from Rome, reported Lady Chamberlain as adroitly fostering an understand­ing with Britabi which would bring recognition of Ethiopia and a two-way split on Spain and the Mediterranean. She has . been in Rome sinee November, in intimate social intercourse with the more important Fascist moguls. For many years, she has been known as the "most perfect political hostess” in London and has been subtly influential in many big deals in continental diplomacy. It was she who cooked up the Locarno conference, at Lake Maggiore, in Switzerland, in 1925.When the delegates were haggling, she packed some hampers and invit­ed Sir Austen, Briand and Streseman to the most important picnic in all his­ tory. In h e r handsome little yacht, they disap­ peared around a bend in the lake, landed in a secluded spot, and, with the aid of three jurists, re-rigged Europe.Whatever came out of the confer­ ence, for good or ill, is traced to That picnic. When she returned to England, she was made Dame of the Grand Cross of the British Em­pire. J She is a comely matron of six- ty-two, married to Sir Austen in 1906, He was fourteen years old­ er. She was Ivy Duhdas of one of the leading political families of England. In the earlier years of their mar­ riage, she was credited with hav­ ing coached her husband in the ul­ tra-English mannerisms which all of the great Birmingham family found it expedient-to master when they moved to London. She is said to have been his political as well as his social mentor, and frequently elec­ tioneered in his campaigns.Lady Chamberlain is an extreme conservative and is believed to have nurtured plans for a British alli­ ance with the Absolutist powers. She has an extraordinary flair for dra­matic political stage-settings and delicate sensitivity to political cur­ rents.

"God is no respecter of persons” (Acts 10:34). He who by reason of His infinite knowledge might well draw lines of distinction between them is loving and gracious toward all, not willing that any should per­ish, extending his mercy to men of all'conditions and all races. But men, whose knowledge is so limited that they cannot even rightly judge the thoughts of their own hearts, are quick to discriminate against their fellow man because he is of a different race, color, or social posi­ tion.A leader in the Southern Baptist church recently pointed out that the number of heathen in the world has increased about two and a half times as rapidly as the number of Christians, which means-that at the rate of progress of missions during the last generation the world has become more heathen at the rate of six million a year, and now we are retarding the process still fur­ ther. Because of financial depres­sion we are recalling missionaries. When the world is ablaze with sin and God-denying political theories we withhold the gospel it needs. It has well been said that such strat­ egy is like closing the hospital be­ cause an epidemic is in progress. Jesus had gone into Syrophenicia and the rejgion of Decapotis (look them up on the map) to rest. But the need of the Gentile people (to whom He was not at that time called to minister) impelled Him to help them also. Note how they were stimulated to believe, how their faith was tried, but triumphant. I. Faith Encouraged. The Greek woman and the man of Decapotis were led to believe in Christ in two different ways. 1. By hearing about Jesus. The woman “heard of him” (v. 25). Paul says, “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Rom. 10:17). Are we diligent in season and out of season, telling the story of Jesus and His love? If so, men and women of our acquaint­ ance will hear of Him and be ready to call on Him in the day of their trouble. 2. By a personal meeting with Jesus. The man was deaf; he could not hear about Jesus, but he could see Him. To him the Lord came in person, and by the sign language, related in verse 33, He stirred his heart to believe. H. Faith Tested. I. By obstacles. The woman met what seemed'to be a sharp rebuke (v. 27), although it was no doubt much tempered by the tender voice of Jesus, and by the fact that He did not use the word “dogs” as the Jews did in speaking of the Gen­tiles. He' spoke kindly, and He talked of the “little dogs” which were the pets of the household. But her faith was greatly tried, just as ours often is, not that it. should fail, but that its strength mi'ght be dem­ onstrated.2. By natural handicaps. Jesus put no impediment in the way of the man, for he was already hindered by nature. How often do we not feel that in our very personalities and bodies are those things which hinder our full apprehension of the grace of God. Shall we then give up in discouragement? No. The man believed right through the barrier of unhearing ears and a speechless tongue. We can do like­wise by the grace' of God. m . Faith Rewarded. 1. By deliverance from the devil. The woman’s daughter was set free because of her faith. Men and wom­ en around us need to be delivered frpm . the devil. Perhaps you who read these lines are in need of such deliverance. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house” ,(Acts 16:31). 2.- By deliverance from personal limitations. The man’s “ears were opened . . . and he spake plain” (v. 35). What is the unfortunate trait of personality, the handicap of body or mind that holds you back from accepting Christ as Saviour, or, having done so, from the full and free development of your spiritual life? Faith in Christ cuts right through the hindering inability. He said to Paul, “My grace is sufficient for thee:- for my strength is made perfect in weakness.” Temper We are told, “Let not the sun go down on your wrath,” but I would add, never act or write till it has done so. This rule has- saved me from many an act of folly. It is wonderful what a different view we take of the same event four-and- twenty hours after it has happened. i Forgive Your EnemiesAnd be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one anoth­ er, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.—Ephesians 4:32. Ruth1KfyeIh Spears <±3$ D J US S S M * C Why Not Fix Those Sagging Springs? CPRINGS in furniture seldom break. The twine that holds them does break and webbing wears out throwing the springs out of position. To set the springs you will need a ball of twine and a needle such as used by the upholsterer, enough webbing to replace the old, tacks %-inch long with large heads', a block of wood for stretch­ ing the webbing, a tack hammer and a tack lifter. Remove the cover from the seat carefully so that it may either be used again or serve as a pattern. Most of the padding may also be used. Ob­ serve how each layer of material is fastened in place, so that you may put it back the same way. Remove the springs and all old tacks. Tack the first strip of web­ bing to one edge of the bottom of the frame, letting the end extend % inch beyond the edge, then fold the end over the first tacks and tack again as at A. Draw the webbing across the frame Us­ ing the block of wood as a lever to. stretch webbing taut as at B. When all the strips have been stretched and tacked across the frame one way, stretch strips of webbing, across the other way weaving these over and under the first ones as at C. Now, sew the bottom of each spring to the web- toGardeners VegelabIePests 'T kHERE are two major classifi- A cations of insect pests—suck­ ing and chewing.Chewing insects, such as beetles, leave telltale holes in leaves. They are best controlled, according to Harold N. Coulter, vegetable expert of the Feny Seed Institute, by dusting or spraying plants with arsenicals (poisons with-arsenate of lead as a base). These arsenicals are known as stomach poisons, for they must be eaten by the insects. Plants at­ tacked by chewing insects include cucumber, squash, other vine crops, mustard, tomato, pepper.'\ Sucking insects, such as aphids or plant lice, can be detected in sinall groups on the under surface of the leaves. Control by dusting or spraying nicotine sulphate or pyretbrum directly on the insects. Plants attacked by sucking in­ sects include peas, pepper, 'cab­ bage, and crops grown for greats.

So much alike are these things, indeed, that one hears a great deal of comment on the circumstance. Most persons are familiar, of course, with the fact that the dic­ tator, Stalin, and the clique at pres­ent, and for the moment only, that is in his favor, are. engaged in “liquidation” of traitors. Now, “liq­uidation” of opposition in Russia means death at the hands of a firing squad. It means putting that oppo­ sition under the ground for eternity. This is accomplished in Russia un­ der Stalin' by the simple expedient of a so-called military trial. The farce that is called a trial is noth­ ing more nor less than an exposi­ tion of charges against the accused who are, without exception, tortured until they “confess.” That is to say, a torture in jail, a physical maltreatment, is administered until the accused would rather have death than a! continuation bf the physical suffering. This thing is resorted to in Rus­sia wherever and whenever Stalin or the clique then holding his favor believes it advisable to instill some more fear into the millions which fate placed in Russia. That is to say if, as always is the case with human beings, Stalin makes a mis­take or his plans go awry, somebody must be the goat. In a land where the government has absolute power over life and death, the easiest, sim­ plest way of solving the problem is by shooting off a few extra “counter revolutionists.” Lately the purge in Russia has been directed at “coun­ter revolutionaries” amongst the army officers. A few newspaper correspondents and government of­ ficials have been included just to make the propaganda effective on the proletariat. The mock trials and the “liqui­dation” in Russia are being carried on at this tim? because it is charged, there are elements in Rus­sia that are seeking to bring back Leon Trotsky. Trotsky has a dif­ferent type of dictatorship by the proletariat in mind. He has to hide out in Mexico, or get shot himself. Anyway, the Stalin group announces boldly that Russia is going forward (whatever - that means) and will brook no interference with its plans —even if it has to shoot off all of its army officers and most of its' government officials. So much for the Russian system. • * • Now, in calling attention to the similarity of conditions here, I have . , . . no notions of com-Amf in the paring them on the VnSttd States basis of the actual results. I want to deal with fundamentals, with prin­ ciples. Itrseems to me this can be done without animosity. We will start, therefore, with one small and rather insignificant matter. A few weeks ago, President Roosevelt named Stanley Reed to be an associate justice of the Su­preme court of the United States. Mr. Reed had been solicitor general of the United States. The appoint­ment can not be criticized in any way, because Mr. Reed will lend dignity to any job he undertakes. I think the country is fortunate .in that appointment. But when Mr. Reed was promot­ ed, the President named Robert H. Jackson to fill the vacant place. Well, most people, were rather glad to see Mr. Jackson placed in a job where he has to do legal work instead of being a political mouth­piece. Their satisfaction was short­ lived, however, because who should be named to succeed Mr. Jackson but Ftofessor Thurman Arnold of Vsle university. It is an appoint­ ment that is worse, if that is pos­sible, than, that which placed Mr. Jackson in the. job originally. For Professor Arnold is not a man to breed confidence at any time. Par­ticularly is this true when it.is con­ sidered that he manages a job' that has to do with governmental rela­tions with business. Which is to say that if business could have, no certainty or assurance or guidance from Mr. Jackson^ it will be like looldng for needles in haystacks to learn what Mr. Arnold's ideas are on business practices. Maybe I should say, it will be like chasing a very small insect that has a habit of biting and .is equipped with a voracious appetite. Thus we are come to the point of comparison. What does it mean that Messrs. Jackson and Arnold stould be given those posts? The answer is Comparatively simple, albeit quite significant. It means that President Roosevelt has taken control of the Department of Justice out of the hands of Altomey Gen­eral Cummings. ^It means that he has yielded again' to the left wing, the radical, advisers who have man­ aged time after time to get the presidential ear ’ and whisper con- m m m vincingly into it. It means, as well, that Attorney General Cummings who was at first one of the great ad­mirers of President Roosevelt is no longer among the presidential insid­ers and that: he must be classed again as a Democrat as distin­ guished from the New Dealers. But, you ask, what has that got to do with Russia, with Stalin, with Uquidatioh of “counter revolution­ aries,” etc? Again, it seems to me that the analogy is plain. Presir dent Roosevelt has been convinced by the radicals and long-hairs.that he has no great need any longer for the breed of simple, sound, sane thinkers, or the practical politi­cians. The advisors who are cling- ing to him like ivy to'a wall have seen their plans go down in the crash of the depression and have to blame somebody. They argue that if their plans had not had interfer­ence from such as Mr. Cummings, or Secretary Roper or the Depart­ ment of Commerce, or “Jim” Far­ ley’s practical politics, surely, the wishful thinkers would have suc­ ceeded. They could not line up the “counter revolutionaries” to be shot in this country, but they can destroy their political influence. To carry the fundamental thought to its ultimate and logical conclu­ sion, therefore, it is necessary only to explain that the great liberal group (which boasts by.mouth or by print) has yet ever to agree among its own numbers. They seldom agree to start with, and they never agree at the finish. It is always : the “other fellow” that is to blame. “If my plan had been followed we would have succeeded,” etc. and so on. There is. that counterpart in Russia, I insist. It proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that no one can define “liberalism.” I mentioned Postmaster General Farley as being on the outs with_ , President. Roose-Farley May veit. it would not Quit be surprising ifMr, Farley, quit his job. Observers in Washing­ ton know that he is pretty much disgusted by the refusal of the Pres­ ident to be guided by advice from the party’s national chairman. It is possible, of course,, that Mr. Farley will prefer to continue in the job as postmaster general and bis quiet rather than expose the rup­ ture. I understand he is giving that matter considerable thought these days, because, first of all, Mr. Far­ley believes in playing practical pol­ itics up to the hilt. — There is another rumor running around Washington about Mr. Far­ ley. It is said in many plades that Mr. Farley may decide to remain on the job so that he can be more effective in helping to restore con­trol of the Democratic parly ma­ chinery to the Democrats. That is to say, Mr. Farley knows, as every one else who understands politics knows, that the New Deal theories will fall of their own weight in due time. They will' fall because so many of them are contrary to hu­ man nature and to American tradi­tions. Being immensely practical, Mr. Farley .holds that the Demo­ cratic party is a party which is a 'natural opposition group to the Re-' publicans. - It will live, as it ought to live, and will continue to be a factor in American government long after the New Deal has burned itself out. Mr. Farley, therefore, is anx­ ious to lend a hind in rebuilding the. Democratic party for the Demo­crats. To that end, it -is understood by many observers, there is a likely alignment between Mr. Farley and the canny, politically wise, “Cactus Jack” Garner, the Vice President. Undoubtedly, there is a strong and growing- group in the house and senate which has turned away from the President. Recent votes have shown an increasing number Iof Democrats that are willing to stand on their own bottom. A very recent illustration of this was the vote on the New Deal scheme to tax cor­porations owned- by a small num­ ber of persons at a higher rate than those whose shares are widely owned. There are thousands of these, all small corporations. To have kept that provision in the new- tax bill would have saved the face of a small coterie . of presidential./ advisers and even the President, himself. But half of the Democrats joined with the Republicans to kill off the plan. From this and other circum­ stances, it is plain to see how the’ rumored Farley-Garner -alignment would be backed up by such- po­ litical powers as Senator Pat Harri­son of Mississippi; Senator Hsuri- son,^it will be remembered,' was rewarded for carrying New Deal buckets by having, the President urge selection of Senator “Dear Al- ben” Barkley,' of Kentucky, to be Democratic leader.of the- senate. Senator Barldey since has/ run into- a fight for renomination* in his own state. Senator Harrison is said to have a following of thirty-odd or more senators; 9 Westem NewstaBti Union. 0 u.5 t 0 nC f 0 u .d t5 5 l / i 5 c u i 5 e 5 CARBOHYDRATES and TATS Foods That Provide Motive Power For the Body Machinery 1 ★ ★ By C. HOUSTON GOUDISS « E u t 3»th St.. New York. THE human body might be compared to a framework filled with machinery. It takes food to build the framework, food to run the machinery and food to keep it working effi­ ciently and this food must be of the proper type. Last week, I discussed the body building proteins and explained how to distinguish between those which build and repair body tissue, and those that are adequate for main­ tenance, but not for growth. It is equally important that you should leant something of the fuel foods Which are neces­ sary to fire the body engine and furnish motive power to propel the body machinery. Fuel Foodi Keep UsAIive The body could not function In the absence of fuel foods any more than a machine could run without power, or a car without gas. Ev­ery breath re­ quires an expendi­ ture of energy, and so does every movement — from the beating of the heart to the wink­ing of an eye. Even in repose,the body machin­ery is kept functioning only by an ever-present supply of fuel.For, as long as life continues— even when you are lying perfectly still—you need fuel to carry on the internal work of the body. ' ActiWfy Demands Energy Foods Every type of daily activity, in­ cluding work and exercise, re­quires additional fuel. U you walk slowly, you expend twice as much energy as when you sit still. And when you walk fast, you may use up four, five or six times as much energy. j The chief fuel, or energy pro­ ducing foods, - are the carbohy­ drates—that is, the starches and sugars; and fats. Protein also has some fuel value, but its pri­mary function Is to build and re­pair tissue. Carbohydrates are quick burn­ ing. They might be compared to the flare of a match in a dark room, which gives bright light for an instant, hut is soon ex­ tinguished. Fat, on the other hand, burns'slowly, like a'lamp whose wick is turned low. Danger of Inadequate Fuel Supply Recently there has been a ten­ dency to minimize the importance of the fats and carbohydrates, due to the craze for dieting. Some of the results of disregarding the ab­ solute necessity for these foods are extreme irritability, and a greater susceptibility to fatigue, nervous diseases, tuberculosis and other infections. TooMuchFueI Causes Overweight It is true, however, that an excess of fuel foods trill tend to Btoduce over- uieitHt. ~For if toe assimilate Aon, Your Food Is Your Fate TPHE third of the series of * articles entitled “What to Eat and Why,” written by C. Houston Goudiss, the eminent food authority, author and ra­ dio lecturer, appears in this issue. . In these articles Mr. Goudiss tells how you can be strong, beautiful, wise and rear healthy children by combining the right food materials in the diet. He points out the., vast influence which food wields over one’s life. The1 housewife and mother who desires to know what foods, will benefit her family the most will do well to read these ar­ticles week by week and make a scrapbook of them for ready reference. • ' and do not utilize Atir potential energy in muscular effort, Aoy trill bo stored —as fat—usually in most inconvenient loeatioasl On the other hand, an excess of any food is « detriment, Thnofon the goal should be enough, but not too much, of all necessary foods. Since both carbohydrates and fats are energy foods, one might expect them to play an inter­ changeable role In the diet. To a certain extent, they do, although fat, being more concentrated, pro­ vides two and one-fourth times as. much fuel value as an .equal weight of carbohydrate. But because of the variation in the- way these materials are han­dled by the body, it is generally considered that health is best served when 40 to SO per. cent of the total energy value of foods is provided in the form of carbohy­ drate and 30 to 35 per cent in the form of fats. Carbohydrates Are Quickest Fuel Carbohydrates, which originate chiefly in plant life, are readily converted into heat and muscle energy. Foods rich. In carbohy­ drates include bread, potatoes, macaroni, rice, cooked and ready- to-eat cereals, peanuts, dried and preserved fruits, sugars and syrup. Sujgar furnishes heat more quickly and more abundantly than any other food.’ But it has a ten­ dency to 'dull the appetite and is also apt to cause fermentation. Therefore, a large measure of our heat and energy is best secured from starchy foods such as bread, cereals, macaroni and potatoes. Quick energy can also be ob­ tained from the easily digested sugars of fresh and dried fruits, such as prunes, apricots, raisins and fully ripened bananas. Sere is an interesting and important point which is frequently overlooked in unscientific reducing diets. Fat re­quires carbohydrates for its proper utili­zation by the body. That u why women who try to reduce without following a scientifically planned, diet frequently become seriously ill as a result of cut­ting down on carbohydrates while over* looking Ae fats contained in mitts, but­ler, md other foods. . — Relation of Fat To Health Fats are so necessary to the body economy-that it is no exag­ geration to say ,that without fat, life, in its higher forms, is im­ possible. The noted Arctic ex­ plorer, Stefansson, found that he could exist satisfactorily on an all-meat diet, provided he ate lib­ erally of fat. On a diet of all lean meat, he became violently ill within a week. Besides furnishing concentrated energry values, fats help to create the fatty tissue which cushions the nerves and abdominal organs, and forms the pleasing contours of face and figure. Because it leaves the stomach more slowly than proteins and carbohydrates, fet retards the di­ gestion of these food groups some­what, and thus gives staying power to a meal. At the'same time it promotes the flow of pancreatic juice and bile, thus helping in the assimilation of other foods. . Foods rich in fat include butter, cheese, egg yolk, cooking fats aid oils, margarine, olives, pastry, peanut butter, most nuts except chestnuts and lichi nuts,' various kinds of sausage and frie dfoods. Anger Destroys . Fat Reserves . .. Experiments have demonstrated why nervous, irritable individuals are usually, thin, while those with serene temperament often ac­ cumulate weight. It has been proven' that anger and fright in­ crease the ,amount of fat in the blood and remove a corresponding amount at fat from its usual stor­ age place beneath the skin,' A fit of anger may take off more fat than an hour’s exercise, or two or three days of enforced diet. Thus the person who allows himself to : become upset continually with­ draws the fat reserve from his body. Such persons could profit, perhaps, by taking more of the fot-forming foods. . But tvheAer the members of your family are good natured, or irritable, youngor old, Aey need c constant sup­ply of fuel foods—tit every meal, every day. Fuet foods produce energy—and energy is the motive power of Ufe and work and thought.t> WNU—C. Houston Goudlu—1938 .

There are ,many pol­ ishes on the market today—some fair, some good, others excellent for luster and long life of the fin­ish! The best is non-greasy, be­cause made with a fine, light-oii base! In time, furniture and wood­ work can be rained by the per­sistent application of a cheap, poor polish! Such polish will con­ tain kerosene, harsh abrasives and harmful acids—destructive el­ ements, that are unseen and un­suspected! The housewife may use one of these polishes, feeling that she is economically keeping her furniture polished—but this is poorest economy, if she values her furniture (and what house­ wife does not?). Thefurniturein a home constitutes the largest part of the furnishings—and will show up like “sore thumbs” when dried, out, cracked or checked. This is just what occurs, when other than a reputable oil .polish is used! Too, a quality oil polish is less expensive! Less is used at one time—for it’s undiluted. The resultant glow is deeper, richer, more lasting! Best of all, the fin* ish of the furniture and woodwork is properly “fed” and kept in prime condition! So beware of harsh, “bargain” polishes—for through them, .the furniture suf­fers!
