Allotments of some commodities to the 221 families (884 persons; on relief have been trebled, but still the supply exceeds the demand. There are reports among persons not on relief that.children of relief families are using premium California oranges for baseballs, so great is the oversupplv that reaches their homes. When the Federal government wants to go prodigal, it seems to know the route to the pig pasture. And it also seems to know in what particular communities .its gener osity might the more profitably for its own well-being be expended. Down in this part of the country which is something.of ,a red-headed stepchild of the present National- Administration, no such profligacy and prostitution of relief and public welfare funds is to be dted. Perhaps, it is being assumed by the High Command that the South will vote in New Deal favor no mat­ ter whether the children of the needy have more than they can eat or are forced to chew wads of pine bark in a hunger emergency. Nor are’ the children of , the South’s needy.usiiig oranges dump­ ed by the crates in their laps with which to play baseball. ' In fact, if the children of the well-to do van have one a week: for breakfast, they consider themselves getting along.famously iu the way- of luxurious eating.—Charlotte Ob­ server.

For all that one may think, well or ill, of former President HooverJs judgment upon issues and Con ditions confronting tbe country to­ day, one would not be justified, in assuming that be makes sharp criticism of the Roosevelt adminis­ tration merely for political capital or because of partisan inspirations. Mr. Hoover has never gene out of his way to impress upon' tbe American people his political label- isms. In fact, ai one time it was so dif­ ficult for both him and the - leader­ ship of tbe two major parties to tell whether he was a Democrat or a Republican, that he was considered as a possible Presidential nominee of the Democratic household. However, when the Issue was finally and sharply joined, Mr. Hoover decided be was at least more of a Republican than a Democrat and accepted the nomination of his parvy ior-the Presidency. But the former President is far more analytical in his mental ap­ proaches and processes than be is political, and it is, therefore, only fair to consent that when he sees dangers in the trends of the New Deal, dangers that it may lead this country to fascism, Mr. Hoover is entitled to an audience. As, for that matter,'are all other honest and constructive critics of the present National policies. It should never come to the pass in this country when, should one, forsooth, shell those in political con­ trol with their disagreeing and dis­ senting views, they.should be merely called carping critics, obstructionists and sore heads,, and let them be gone at tha*. -- W- .

Many cottoafarmers in tbe South, and many corn growers in the West now that the acreage allotment im­ posed by the Federal'’ Government is a practical reali;y, contend that they did not understand this legis . Iation when it was being .'debated, nor when they ’ voted to have it fastened about their necks.: In their ignorance, the planters have distinguished company. It is reasonable to assume that nobody understood it in ail of its ramifications when it was produced not even the majority of the mem­ bers of Congress who voted; for it, nor, for that matter, by all bf those professors in the agricultural depart­ ment who created it. This Is,not to assume that these authorities were careless or stupid. It is merely to say that .

Three-comfortable country homes, an old trading poat building long, since abandoned as the center of a thriving community’s activities, and a tiny, weathered building which still bears over its faded facade the legend, “post office,” are all that remain of .CaIahaInl N. C ,-a t; on* time one of Davie county’s most im­ portant rural trading centers. -A neat, white sign bearing tbe name of the former post office still stands, just at tbe side of the paved highway’in front of the residence of N. Ti Anderson, it’s last postmaster. Early.. in the, present decade the government abandoned its post, of­ fice service at Calahaln. And with that' adandonment the trickle of mail that in former years brought a daily stream of: patrons from tbe surrounding countryside to the com­ bined country store and post office ceased. The former glory of the cross roads at Calshaln has. not entirely vauished,'however. For, the homes of present day members of the An­ derson clan are still open to their neighbors and Iriends for miles a- round. -Rarely a Sunday passes with­ out each of three' across the-road homes having its share of visitors. They come during the week Jtoo, to chat about crops, politics and other matters of current interest; Back in the post-Revolutionary period, Captaini. Charles Anderson came to the site of Calahaln and set­ tled. One of his children was Rich­ ard Anderson, whowas destined to become, tbe father of tbe three An­ derson brothers. These latter were the ones who made Calahaln' tbe thriving settlement iti became during the post-Civil War period. The brothers were Charles Ander. son. Dr. John Anderson and A. A. Anderson. Descendants of hardy pioneer stock, these men put their thrift and energy 10 work in the lit- tlement and within a few years had replrced a tiny trading post with a large, ^ fiiiiv stocked merchandise establishment.- Cbwrles Anderson was active prc- prietor of the trading post. He was also postmaster of the tiny post of­ fice which served, residents of the section for several miles around. ~ Late in the 19th century, ,the three brothers decided the business act K Vities of the settlement needed-<x* panding. They erected a sizable structure of logs and wood, and be­ gan making ^lug tobacco. . Thtir plant waa avong the earliest of early tobacco manufactories whfch were the nucleus for Piedmort North CarblihS’s.present day gigar- tic industry. " N. T. Anderson, the last post­ master of Calahaln. recall hearing his father tell, of a visit the late R. J. Reynolds of Winston-Salem paid to tbe little community on his way to peddle on bia own early tobacco products. ’ He would frequently stop at the settlement to spend the night. Mr.- Anderson also recalled .' hear­ ing stories of other visits paid the settlement—visits of government rer venue, agen'e who' were searching for tobacco on which the govern­ ment tax seals bad not been fixed. Some member of the community, would see the agents before they ac­ tually arrived at the .little cros» roads establishment and would in­ form this Anderson brothers. There would be a bustle of confu­ sion for a few minutes while any non-tax-paid p'ug was being bidden in a small cubbyhole ov'er-the inside ceUing or iasecret hiding places on the second floor of the store build­ ing. ' Tlie post office at Calahaln remaiiH 'ed in the Ahderaon itainily Iar r a| - proximatdy 70 years.. The country store also continued - in operation until a comparatively few years ago.

PARTON :VJ EW YORK--Meeting Francesco ■ Malipieroat'aparty in the Roy- : jal Danielli inVenice, soon after the World war,. I thought, he was one ot „ . ' the most charm-Malipiero ing and brilliant, IlVrIM Perton and, at the same to Remember time, most cryptic men I had ever seen. There was in the company another Italian musician, a famous conductor, who was the lion of the evening. I have forgotten his ap­ pearance and his name, but every- ithing about Signor Malipiero is viv­ idly remembered. On the way home in a gondola, I asked the conductor for an apprais­ al of Signor Malipiero as a musi­cian. There was considerable con­ descension in the reply. Malipiero was gifted but er­ ratic, it was even hinted that be was “unsound,” in some deeply subversive sense. Bnt my Virgil eagerly agreed that the signor was a most extraordinary hu­ man personality. ' As recently as four years ago, a Malipiero opera threw the Royal opera house of Rome into a tumult of howling and cat-calls. Mussolini banned it as “inimical to the faith and sound teachings of the.new It­aly.” But, by this time, Malipiero had become a world-famous musi­cian, and he was soon restored to favor. This status is unquestioned as his symphony, “Elegiaca,” was given its first performance Outlaur of in New York, with Music Now John Barbirolli Is Lionized conducting. Formany years, criti­cal opinion discounted him as some­ what of an outlaw and disturber. Now it has caught up with him, as it did with Stravinslqr and Richard Strauss. Both the “Fire Bird” and “Salome” were met with catcalls when they were first produced. Critics note some mysterious “en­ervating influence” in Malipiero’s new symphony. It may be an after­ thought, but the explanation seems clear as I recall my conversation with him. His face saddened and he seemed ten years older when I mentioned the war. For his ballet, “Pantea,” he had written of “the struggle M a soul hurling itself into the struggle for liberty, only to find oblivion and death." The war had been to Um a tragic and devastating experience. He said it had profoundly shaken both . his art and his life. Never again would the suave flu­ encies or banalities of music have meaning for him. He was impelled to a deeper search. * This disillusionment was subli­ mated in irony. He was suspected _ . j t of slyly sabotagingSmpeeted Ot the grandiose newSabotage in■ Italian state. It NeW Opera was in March,1934, that his op­ era, “The Fable of Ihe Exchanged Sons,” with the text by Luigi Piran­ dello, all but caused a riot in the Royal opera house. So far as I could learn at the time, there was no brash heresy in the work, but, as elaborated by the text, a subtle hint, that ultimate truth is forever elusive and supreme power dead sea fruit. That, of course, is dangerous doctrine in a totalitarian, state, and it was quick­ ly and. savagely^resented. The next day, il Ouce forbade another pre­sentation. Malipiero is a poet and a mys­ tic. Of dominant presence, with sharply, cut Roman features and hair brushed back in : a thick pompadour, he .is at the same time ; extraordinarily gracious, friendly and unassuming, He lives in a quaint stone villa, •forty or fifty miles from Venice, centuries old, rambling and tumble- down. Cut in the stone door lintel there is a Latin text, “To the ob­ scene, all things are obscene.” That was his answer to the critics of one of his operas.

Quarrel or Fight “Many a man seems to enjoy a quarrel,” said Uncle Ebenl “on de theory dat it’s better dan a fight.” Nationid Topics Interpreted by Wdllam Biuckart National Preu BnUdInK Wublncton, T>. C. Washington.—Almost before its operation is well started, the new _ federal crop lawCropLam appears to be bog- Bogs Down ‘ ging down.; From . w hat I hear around the offices of senators and representatives at the Capitol, there is plenty of rebellion against the law which is supposed to plan ag­ riculture on’ a scientific basis. In­deed, if one reads some ot the let­ ters, the conclusion is inescapable that Secretary Wallace and his “sci­ entific planners" are going to have more trouble than a one-armed pa­per hanger in administering that law. It is difficult to provide a dear analysis of the trouble because of the complex character of the law, the confusion as to what can and can. not be done under its provi­ sions, the varying attitude of the farmers who are its “beneficiaries” or its “victims,” according to their views. The problem of telling Trtiat is wrong is made the more difficult because practical people seem to be unable to get anywhere in their ef­forts to get the “scientific planners” to recognize human nature as well as the material forces that must be considered in farming. I have talked with a number of Department of Agriculture people; individuals who are supposed to un­derstand the crop control law. They are most convincing; the pen-and- ink sketches'that they have made leave only the question as to Uie reaction of human beings. The de­ partment propaganda surely is suf­ ficient to smother any criticism. It is formidable.- But it, .also, leaves that question of human relation­ ships, wind and weather, to be de­ termined. Even in that regard, ev­ ery now and then Secretsoy Wal­ lace issues a statement or makes a speech which seems to do away with any possibility of trouble from those influences. In the meantime, however, the cotton growers of the South went into a rebellion about the acreage allotment. They succeeded in get­ ting, rather in forcing, Secretary Wallace to obtain congressional ac­tion allowing for an increase of 2,000,000 acres of production this year. He went after that legislative action as an emergency, and there was plenty of sentiment in congress for it, because as a matter of cold fact there is a very large majority in the house and senate who doubt that the new crop control law is go­ ing to work. To the request for ad­ ditional acreage, therefore, there was only a little objection since ad­ ditional acreage meant an obvious increase in general production with the chance for increased return to the farmers who grow the cotton. Only lately, another tidal wave of rebellion developed. It came from the corn fanners. They had re­ ceived their allotments of acreage and, like the cotton farmers, they found themselves between the up­ per and nether millstones. Their rebellion surely lent credence to statements in debate when congress was considering the bill that it con­ ferred -more power on a federal agency than ever ought to be con­ ferred in a free country; and that there was no possibility of this pow­er being exercised wisely since none knew its scope. The cotton and com revolt, therefore, would seem to support assertions in the senate that flie two chief sponsors of the bffl, Senators Pope of Idaho and JIcGUl of Kansas, had no under­ standing of the measure they were- fighting for. At ,least, the explana­ tions, they. .made;tiever„.wei^abiet^permeate what I tun pleased to re­ fer to as my brain.• * * The corn protestors made their first concentrated move only recent- Ftlrnlrr. Iy at Macomb, 111.,r armers and the sum and Protest substance of that meeting seems to be that those farmers have had their bellies full of compulsory crop con­ trol. They.called it un-American; they described it as ruinous and pledged , united action against its continuation. Of3Ctfwsei no one in Washington can tell exactly' how many farmers are in sympathy with the portion taken at the Macomb meeting. There are 568 counties in what is designated as the com area. Whetlir er there is. a large majority against the compulsory, dictatorial type, of law, or whether there is only a siz­able minority can not now be -ac­ curately stated.' It can be stated as a definite fact; however; -that fanners do-not-spend, theirmoney to go several hundred miles' for'a meeting of protest unless they are being badly damaged. Conimiinists and other radicals would go dashing anywhere to hold a protest meeting, but farmers are not built .that way. So the Macomb meeting must -be taken seriously. It must' be given additional weight as well because.it .followed on the heels of heated pro­ tests from the cotton growers. ::: As to the number of fanners rep^ resented in the "Macomb meeting; that is to say, the farms andfarm­ ers represented by that protest, it might be enlightening to quote here the published statement of Claude Why the Rebellion? R. Wickard. Mr. Wickard is a di­ visional AAA director and one of the realfr close advisors to Secre­ tary Wallace. , Said Mr. Wickard: “Complaintshave cornea gainst the corn allotments as high as 1,100 from one county.” Obviously there could_not be that many complaints from more than a limited number of counties. But even if there are only half that num­ ber of protests from any considera­ble number of counties, the repre­ sentatives and senators who voted for that IegiMation are bound to get plenty of kicks in the' pants next November. And the plight of those members of the house and-senate appears to be made worse by the statement attributed to the Depart­ment of Agriculture by Represent­ ative Andresen of Minnesota. Ap­ parently, Mr. Andresen had been getting baskets full of kicks about’ the acreage allotments and went to the department to find out the facts. He returned to tell his colleagues on the floor of the house: “The administration (AAA) Will not yield an inch. The allotments have been made according to law and the farmers can take them or leave them.” In that statement, it seems to me, there is unbounded arrogance and Mr. Andresen did the country a service when he repeated it to the house of, representatives. It is an attitude of the dictator, of the worst sort of regimentation and it bears but the very thing which Senator Borah of Idaho predicted would hap­pen when he opposed the legislation. Senator Borah’s blast in the debate was, of course, branded as the criti­ cism of a Republican, and it was his colleague, Senator Pope, the Ida­ho New Dealer, who was running about the country last year as the chief member of a committee of senators which was drumming up. sentiment for the legislation before the extra session of congress called last November. By way of prediction,! think there can be no doubt that the wheat farmers will find themselves shocked, instead of their wheat, when they get their acreage allot­ ments later. They will find that the law is compulsory, not one of free co-operation as advertised when the bill was being debated in congress. • * * What is the reason for these con­ ditions? Why is there rebellion among the farm­ ers when, accord­ing to Secretary Wallace, t h e r e was a great majority for applica­ tion of the crop control provisions?Frankly, I believe there are sev­ eral faciors to be considered as hav­ ing influenced the passage and sub­ sequent application of the compul­ sory regimentation. In the first instance, , it is quite apparent now that many represent­atives and senators were subjected to red hot steam from professional farm lobbyists, from Secretary Wal- lace;and his lobbyists and from Uie minority of farmers who wanted something, anything, that would cause the government to pay them money. That belief is predicated upon a knowledge that the vast ma­ jority of the farmers are too busy with their own affairs to be active in politics. The legislators thought they were doing what the farmers wanted them to do. In the second place, there surely was much misrepresentation about the legislation. At all times and on all occasions, Secretary Wallace and thosewho were seeking to put- over the legislation ' vigorously stressed the statement’that the pro­visions of the plan were voluntary. There was. to be no compulsion in it; the farmers themselves were to decide; the department here in Washington would do exactly what the farmers wanted. AU of which is very well and good, except that Uie farmers were not informed how much pressure could be exerted to make them volunteer. They either had to “volunteer” dr find they could market none of their product without being penalized!- What ls the result going to be? Congress soon will -be quitting for the year, and there is no IiUffiood of any amendment that will alter the situation—unless something inter­ venes to keep congress in session far into the summer months. The only thing to look' forward to, then, is the result of the fall elections. If the' revolt that is representedby the protests of the cotton and' com fonrnrs is widespread, ,it: will show up '-ffl ■ the’ - votes at' election time. Those who . fought so’hard for it in congress will meet trouble: in pri­ maries and in the election as well; To me, however, there is an added significance. These protests reveal a; growing sentiment among farm­ers, a resentment, against having the federal government bureaucrats ran the farms from Washington.■ © Western Newspaper Union. - 1 Puerto Rico * Flower-Garden 'The tropical island of Puerto Rico is a veritable flower, with 3,3S3'va­ rieties of brilliantly colored flowers - growing on its mountains and coasts! plains. - r - BOOKS IN BRIEF----------- How Prisoner Used Rats to By-EUZABETH C. JAMES T HE prisoner opened his eyes to blackness. Fears shook him as he thought of the Inquisition Judges. Feeling painfully about him he dis­ covered that his clothes had been changed while he was unconscious and he now wore an /unfamiliar robe. Thus does Edgar Allen Poe set the stage in “The Pit and the Pendulum/’,What manner of place was this? Perhaps he was . dead and this was eternity. Perhapslie was entombed alive. Panic seized him. He must know the size and shape of his prison! Cautious­ ly he felt his way until he found the wall. Ripping a piece from his robe to mark the starting place, he began to creep along, count­ ing the paces. A cir­cuit of 50 yards in­ dicated that it could' not be a tomb. Now he would cross the cell.. Boldly h« started away from the wall, but his feet tripped in the robe and he fell prone. Taut he lay. A qu£er sensation stole over him, for his head seemed to' be touching nothing, to be in space; ReacUng out he found a well or pit. .

Some time later and with' an ef­ fort, his benumbed mind saw that the prison was now lighted. He saw Elisabeth James TURBULENT LIFE Tte life of Poe is more turbu­ lent than any story that he wrote. Scores of biographers have at­tempted to reveal something of the spirit of this lonely and pas­ sionate man. Although Poe died in his fortieth year, he left lit­ erary criticism that is excellent, and short stories' and poems that are unexcelled for sheer artistry. Later biographers have stated that Poe’s reputation was worse than . Poe. His difficulties at the University of Virginia and at West Point, and his being disin­ herited by his foster father gave him a name for recklessness when he was very young which the events of his later life did nothing to offset. Poe lived from 1809 until 1849, attaining a literary fame in Eu­ rope as well as in America. walls of metal, a stone floor, and a high ceiling. In the middle of the floor yawned the pit How strange he felt—he could not move. Lying on his back he was bound to a wooden bench. Pendulum Appears. From the pit crept rats. The pris­ oner looked about him for some weapon. Only, his arm was free .from the ..elbow down,-so that he could reach the plate of food on the floor. As the rats crept to­ward the plate he waved them away. Again a noise, this one sounded like steam.. Looking upward, he saw the silver object to be a pendu­ lum that'dropped slowly with each stroke. Then he divined the cun­ ning of his captors. A blade of steel was descending slowly toward him. With days Of mental torture and hours of physical torture, his death would be slow and horrible;Time passed but he could not reckon how niuch.

It is this! personal devo. tfon to. the One whom we love “be­ cause he first loved us” (I John 4:19), which makes Christianity “different from ail'other religions. Christianity alohe acts through this natural and deep hunger of man­ kind with a personalized religion which can be a satisfying joy and pleasure. Yet at this point Chris­ tians fail the most and make diffi­cult the work of serving Jesus. They see religion as a job to be done, a form to be' observed, a duty to be fulfilled” (W. R. King). Ve need to renew that devotion to Christ which expresses itself in true worship.. Prayer is too often asking for things; praise, thanking for things (unless we become so en­ grossed with them that we forget to return thanks); and worship, which is a coming to God in adoration and thanksgiving for what He is rather than what He can give, is forgotten. Our Heavenly father wants us to show love toward Him. The act ot Mary was pure personal devotion and worship, and its fragrance lives to this day. L Wasted—But Eternally Saved (yv. 3-9). -The dark hours of betrayal and death were before our Lord. AU around Him was hostility. Even in the inner circle of thfrdisciples th^re was misunderstanding and bicker­ ing. Mary (to be distinguished from the sinful woman of Luke 7) with the quick intuition of an under­ standing woman’s heart knew what He was passing through, and with a magnificent act of love stood by Him in the fellowship of His' sufferings. Dr. Morgan points out that it was “an impulsive act . . . born of the prodigality of love daring not to calculate.” to the words of verse 9, Jesus declared that the gospel and that which this woman had done -were to “stand side by side with each other forever. That keen intuition of love, that uncalculating outpouring of love, was Godlike, and an act in fellowship with the act of God by which a world is re­ deemed.” Judas, who was a thief, said she had wasted' money that should be used for the poor (John 12:6). The other disciples thought well of his argument and murmured against her. But Jesus commended her.

C. Wash Weaves Gain in Style Prestige By CHEIUE NICHOLAS 'TnHERE is greater high style appeal in wash ma­ terials this season than ever. The acceptance of glamorous, gorgeous lines (plain or print­ ed) and spun rayons (new star shin­ ing bright in the fabric firmament) as “dress-up” materials is one of the outstanding milestones that marks the progress of fashion. If you would see piques and cotton voiles and rippled or varied-type cloque cottons, organdies, seersuck­ ers (sheer or sturdy) and gay stripes or plaid ginghams or the new corded cottons, likewise cotton nets and laces “show off" in all their glory, tuning to every phase of fashion from simplest housedress, housecoat or swim suit, to inost exquisite wedding ensembles, eve­ ning formals or party frocks, get yourself invited to the spectacular event presented each year In vari­ ous style centers—the Cotton ball that pays homage to “King Cotton.” However, sans the Cotton ball, you will not lose out in seeing this sea­ son such pageantry of cotton ma­ terials and other smart washables as you’ve .never seen before, for all the stores are these days making a countrywide display of the love­ liest wash weaves fancy might pic­ ture. It is really a very intriguing thought to know you can go to the most “highbrow” affair and be classed among the best dressed, gowned in a simple wash voile or a pin-tucked batiste laden with val lace edgings, or a tailored gingham that is fashioned decollete, with a full skirt and bolero. Not that we are losing sight of the style element and the practicality that wash materials ever maintain for sportswear and general utility wear. That side of the question is a subject so exhaustless we will not attempt to touch upon it in these few paragraphs. There is, however, this, conclu-: Bive argument in favor of modern wash fabrics whether they be for* 'mal or utilitarian to the effect that if you are careful to buy the right sort of washables they carry with them the guarantee-of being both non-shrinfcable and non-crushable. It is indeed a comfort to the woman who is her own seamstress to know that from now on. with these latest improvements in tub fabrics she can buy her patterns exactly the right size without having to allow for pos­ sible shrinkage.' In the. picture we are showing three “reasons why” dresses of handsome wash materials are out­ standing in the spring and summer style scene—charming enough to wear most anywhere in the day’s social swirl, you’ll agree. Fine hand- blocked linen glowing with colorful naturalistic rose and bud motif (a glorious fabric for the more dressy type of “onlooker” dress) fashions the center model. Miracle of mir­ acles, such a “dressy” sport frock is exactly as practical as its more mundane sisters,. for. being pre­ shrunk, its “lines” and its colors are permanent, regardless of numerous tubbings. And the same may be said for the gowns that complete the group. For the dress to the right soft tailoring brings out the beauty of a most likable spun rayon fabric that you can rely upon to go through tubbings victoriously and that will capture your heart with its color­ ings and striking patternings. A Mexican motif on the print pattern­ ing, gay buttons, a bright raffia belt, carry out the blithe mood of the gay caballero linen print that tailors to perfection in the youthful dress to the left. Anyyoungwomanwould do well to tuck such a frock away in her vacation trunk. It will insure conquests for her. -© Western Newspaper Union, .

And, as he regained breath and poise, he gave some attention to the iron rod in the fire, moving the end of it well down into the red coals, for it must be plenty hot for the job he had on hand. And, as. he waited, hemmed in by the blackness of a cloudy Saskatchewan night, he pat­ ted himself on the back for the way in which he had escaped detection. They were all plain dumbbells, even the Men of the Mounted, or they’d have caught up to him long ago. On the other hand, he was right smart, was “Gunboat,” for he was wily and cunning, and he knew how to hide a branding-fire in the re­ cesses of a gully or coulee. He just used his head, that’s all, and as long as he did that, he’d be able to carry on. Moreover, he knew just where to find a buyer.A few minutes later, red-hot rod in hand, he scooted Tapidly over to the prostrate young bull and the bluish-white smoke from burning hair and hide was coiling upward into the night. With all the care and precision of a surgeon doing a difficult operation, “Gunboat” moved that red-hot iron over the original brand until, he had made a nice round spot. “When that heals up it’ll be kinda whitish, so we’ll jist call it the Snowball Brand,” he muttered as he finished. Within the hour he had performed a like operation on the three fat steers, and then rolled into his blankets with the satisfaction of a man who had done a real workmanlike job. Every bit of the original brands had been'burned out, and no one would ever know the. difference. They’d sell, easy.Nor was “Gunboat” OVMMHmat- ing his ability as a cattle salesman, for at the end of a month he had turned the deal at top prices and had a belt full of good Canadian cash. Well-heeled, “Gunboat” dis­ appeared into the nowhere whence he had come. Buyer and seller had parted good friends, and everyone was satisfied until a Man of the Mounted looking for a Hot meal and a night’s-lodging; chanced to meet up with the four animals carrying the “Snowball” brand. itBought ’em from a feller thet passed through here ’bout a month ago,” replied the homesteader, a newcomer, to the Mounted Man’s inquiries.“Those scars look mighty suspi­ cious,, partner,” opined the Man of the Mounted. “It wouldn’t surprise me if you had unwittingly bought some stolen cattle , . looks Jike the original brands have - been burned out.

You won’t lose a p e i^ ;?l3et’s get. busy,” replied the Man ofrthe' Mounted as hie dismounted- and walked toward the nearest steer. Inside of half an hour the homesteader- learned a lot about cattle-brands. In spite of the very thorough Job of burning and searing “Gunboat” had done on the outside of the hide, the original brand showed up.all too plainly on the flesh side. - SeveralU weeks later "Gunboat" Charlie was apprehended in another province, 'and was soon on trial. It was a great day for the dignified and bewigged judge as the’Man of the Mounted, spreading the steer- hide over the judge’s bench, proved his.point, that flGunboaf* had dis- ftgufed tile original brand by the outside burning, but had failed to go more than half way 'thipugh the hide: and thus spoil the original brand that now showed up all too plainly on the flesh side of the skin. Oto top of that, the owner of the original brand, was in courts and he identified “Gunboat” as a man who bad worked on his ranch for a cou­ ple of days and had. then .disap­ peared about the same time as four head of cattle. ^'Gunboat’’ was sen­ tenced to two years at hard labor and,, needless to say, from that tune on no cattle or horse thief used the “Snowball’’ brand in that particular region.

HOUSTON GOUDISS 6 East 39th Street, New York City O F ALL the nutrition problem s that challenge the home­ m aker, none is m ore im portant than supplying her fam ­ ily’s need for iron. This m ineral is soinetimes described as -the suprem e elem ent in nutrition because it is an essential constituent of the blood. * —★— How Blood Is Constructed If you should examine a drop of blood under the micro­ scope, you would observe that it is composed of red cells and white cells. In norm al blood there are about 25 million times a million red blood corpus­ cles, owing their color to the iron- bearing protein hemoglobin. They carry oxygen to all the body -tissues, and remove the carbon dioxide formed during the combustion of body fuel.A reduction in the amount of hem­ oglobin in the blood may cause short­ ness of breath, quickened respiration and an ac­ celerated heart action. Lack of appetite, weakness, and a slowing of all vital functions may also re­ sult from the diminished supply of oxygen to the tissues. lack of Iron May Lead to Anemia In many young people the blood does not function normally,- though frequently parents are unaware, that anything is wrong. You may scold them for being lazy, for lacking interest in their work, or never heediiig the things you tell them, when the real trouble is due to iron starvation which,, if long continued, may lead to anemia. The person who has a tendency toward anemia usually tires eas­ily and lacks pep; complains of cold hands and feet; worries over trifles, and may have a complex­ ion that is anything but rosy. The great danger of an iron- deficient diet is that it deprives the body of its chief defense against disease. For when the quality of the blood -is poor, one becomes an easy, prey to infection.Moreover, if a serious illness oc­ curs, lowered resistance makes it difficult to fight it off. Two Fwms of Anenda Anemia -may be due to loss of blood, deficient blood formation, or to increased blood destruction in the body. The different forms of the disease are sometimes clas­sified as primary and secondary anemia. Primary anemia is Usually lpiown as pernicious anemia. It is a grave condition in which the marrow of the. bones has lost its power to makered blood cells. Secondary or nutritional anemia may result from loss of blood, in an accident* or it may follow a long, infectious illness. For any Infection lowers the iron reserve in the body.

It is believed that about 10 per cent of the total hemoglobin in adults is destroyed daily. And for this reason iron-rich foods must be included in the diet every day. Investigators have found it diffi­ cult, to determine the exact iron requirement, but according to the latest estimates, from 12 to 15 milligrams a day will -not only provide adequately, for bodily re­quirements, but will allow a rea­ sonable reserve. —★— Women Need More Them Men Women require more iron than men, in proportion to the body weight, to make good the losses that occur during the menses. Ex­ pectant mothers, need a generous amount of iron, not only to pro­ vide for their own needs and for the normal development of the fetus, biit to create a reserve sup­ ply in the baby’s bodywhich will last through the period of; lacta­ tion.The percentage of iron in the baby’s body Jg about three times that of the adult. Nature' has wisely designed this, reserve to make up for the low iron content of milk which constitutes' the chief food during the first six months of life. Nutrition authorities.believe, however, that better Aealthi !re­ sults when an iron-rich food,- such as egg-yolk, is introduced -very early into the diet. This helps to prevent the slight- anemia which was formerly regarded as -unim­ portant, but which is now recog­nized as making the baby more susceptible to infection, and re­ tarding growth. —★— Children's Requirement IBgb It is desirable to keep the iron intake at a high level throughout childhood, for it has been discov­ ered that better health results when a surplus is allowed above the dally requirement. But there is a very special need for iron in girls from the beginning of ado­ lescence through the eighteenth year. ' Iron-Rich Foods To maintain top health and pre-' vent the possibility of nutritional anemia, the homemaker must learn to meet the daily iron ter quirement of her family and not leave this vital matter to chance. Iron-ridi' foods include egg yolk, llveri molasses, dried beans and. peas, -whole grain cereals, lean meat and green leafy vege-. tables. While milk has . only a small amount of iron, experiments show that Its iron is readily ab- sorbed and is utilized to good ad­ vantages - ■ Eggs. are such an excellent source of iron that one egg yields about one-tenth of the standard requirement. Lean meat furnishes a considerable amount, but liver is so much richer that it should.-be eaten frequently. Dried beans are inexpensive and when baked with molasses become a. good source of Iron. It is a pity that parsley is so often used only as a garnish, be­ cause it has a higher iron con­ tent than most green leafy vege­tables. - Though potatoes, .contain tonly a moderate-amount of iron, 'they are usually consumed in suf­ ficient quantities -to make them a 'significant fsource:'. • - i^ppsi.A ^N eceasanr -'' Investigation 'has. demonstrated that i adequate -'Iron-, alone . is . hot {enough to prevent nutritional ane- AreYou ti r e t w e i j i You can U gA iT R E D U C E .ComfintalilY StM dJbrT iaP retB m U ttim O S trtd b y C Hotutam G tm im Readetaofthisnewspaiteraro invited to write to C Hboston Goodiss,at6East 39th Street, New Vork City, for his iden- uficReduring Bulletin, which shows how to reduce by the -safe and sane method of counting calories.

Therefore, in order to obtain, the fnll bene* fits of itoD j the diet must contain sufficient copper. Foods that sup­ ply copper in abundance are liver, nuts, dried beans and peas.

Frank Hancock says he has Bob Reynolds beaten to a frazzle, while Bob says Frank hasn't a chance to represent North Carolina in the U. S. Senate. One of these boys seems to be handling the truth rather carelessly. Seemsthat the Yadkin county Republicans have an. iron-clad rule to the effect that a sheriff shall only serve two terms, , Davie Republi cans geneially give their sheriffs three terms, or have for the past twenty yjars. * We hope that none of the friends of the various county candidates ' will let their ardor run away with tbeir better judgment and cause them to say and do things that they will repent of in sackcloth and ashes before the ides of November. The Bob Reynolds managers throughout the state are. passing out the word that Bob will defeat Frank Hancock in the June pri­ mary from 100,000 to 200,000 ma­ jority. The Hanpock managers are declaring that their man has Bob defeated by a big majority. Pay your money and take your choice. ' John H. Sprinkle, Geo. F. Wine- coff and Kelly L. Cope served for three terms as sheriff of Davie conn. ty. They filled the office to the satisfaction of most citizens of the county, both democrats and Repub­ licans. In the long ago C. C.

Mistress of Monterey © Virginia Sttvers Bartlett Virginia Stivers Bartlett WNU Service CHAPTER RUV-Contbmed —21— “No,” she replied coldly, “I will ,not come. Are you really going. . . ;actually . going to leave me here,, jsick "and miserable, with an ailing ,child, and a couple of silly women jto take care of me?

Hour by ,hour, day by day, I am dying in ,this place! Yet you wilt leave me, :to go to your fiestas, and your mis­ sion foundings, and let me die alone!" “Eulalia, this is not true: Control yourself!”: ."Control myself!” She rose to her jfeet. “How dare you say that to ;me? What have I been doing, but 'controlling myself, my thoughts, my ,‘unhappiness, all this time! I am !sick, I tell you . . . I am dying!” - She was crying, hysterically, un­ controllably. Pedro reached to take her into his arms, but she evaded him, screaming out at him unintel­ ligibly. “Eulalia . . . Eulalia . . he said. But she was in the hill sway of her emotions, a flood of feeling was carrying her along, and she did not struggle against the tide. "Miserable, unhappy place!” she screamed. “I want to get away from this California! Never see it again! If I don’t, I tell you, I shall die, or kill myself! No, don’t touch me . . keep away from me! Go to your Mission Santa Barbara, go . . . go. Ai, Dios!” She flung her hands above her head and clasped them, for the .moment utterly be­ reft of her reason. As her husband came near to her, she leaped sud­ denly backward. "Beast! Devil!” she screamed, and crashed to the floor. Her head struck a corner of the heavy table, and as she lay on the dirt floor, blood streamed from her temple. Her screams had at last brought Angustias, frightened, into the room, and she was on her knees be­ side the now motionless figure be­ fore Fages. “She has fainted," exclaimed An­ gustias breathlessly, “and cut her head . . . pobrecfila.” Pedro Fages threw his hat, gaunt­lets and riding whip into a corner. “Oh, God!” he muttered. “Oh, my God!” Then he lifted the lady in his arms and carried her to her bed. So the Mission of Santa Barbara was founded withoiit the Governor of California being present. But when the mission was already ten days old, the Governor, his son and a small party arrived at the place. Another ceremony was car­ ried out in solemn, reverence, at which the Governor attended with a stern set face. And when the rites were over, he knelt for a long time before the crude altar. Those who watched near him said when he arose, his face was wet with tears. “He was Junipero. Serra’s good friend,” they explained to one an­ other pityingly. “He is thinking of him now no doubt.” So, though the legal date of the founding of the Mission Santa Bar­ bara was the fourteenth of Decem­ ber, that being the day when the Governor was present, the Gover­nor always insisted that the real founding was on the Feast of the Lady Santa Barbara herself, that being December fourth. The Governor .lingered not for cel­ ebrations nor fiestas, but returned •at once to Monterey. “Now,” he said to himself look­ ing back at the little spot where the church was to stand. “Now, at last, Padre Junipero, your prayers are answered, and my vows are kept.” CHAPTER XRV For nearly three years, ever since Bon Pedro had gone south to the founding of the Mission Santa Bar- ' bara, Eulalia had lived in as chaste a state as the old Spanish virgin. At first she had denied herself to him through sheer lassitude, then, realizing his need of her, his seem­ ing dependence upon her, she had purposely withheld herself. She had determined that there should be fa­ vor for favor. For the privilege of holding her in his arms, he was to return with her to Mexico. The plan had seemed beautifully simple to her, but when she men­ tioned it to her husband he had turned on her a strange unbelieving look, tugged his beard, muttered something about prostitution, and set up. a camp cot in his office by the presidio gate. So three years had passed. Don Pedro grew a little leaner, and his face a little wolfish with gleaming eyes and grizzled beard,1 but always stern, uncompromising, v And Eula­ lia, with everything at stake upon her attractiveness, grew more beau- ■ tifulj but nervously alptt. Her black eyes were wary and predatory. One day Angustias marched bold­ ly, toward .her with a: determined tread that bespoke some matter of import brewing in her mind. “Nina!” she spoke sharply;'stand­ ing with arms akimbo.' “You will pardon me for. speaking to you this way: God is my witness,' I' have kept quiet long enough. But this 'thing goes too-far!.” “What thing?” murmured Eula­ lia easily. “Yoq know well enough; This thing of Don Pedro, bless his heart, sleeping down; at his office. Three years! Humph!” She snorted loudly. “Perhaps it is not fitting that a sin­gle woman, such as I, should speak of such things. Indeed it is pain­ ful. difficult, for me to do so, but I must . . .” Eulalia smoothed an eyebrow with a finger-tip. “Um-m-m,” she.mur­ mured. “I think I shall take a walk. Across the. presidio. And call on his Excellency in his office.” She rose grandly and, holding her skirts aloof from the dust, walked erectly across the parade-ground. In his office the Governor was puz­ zling over a letter he had received by a courier from San Francisco. So that when Eulalia swept im­ periously into the office, he greeted her absently although surprisedly. Eulalia sat impatiently in the chair he offered her, and looked around the office while the Gover­ nor talked excitedly. The white­ washed walls were hung with maps, crisscrossed with marks of trails over unknown country which Don “Very Well! Do as Ton Please!” Pedro himself had explored. His few books, which he had moved from the palacio, were on a rough shelf. And in one corner was his camp cot. She lifted her nose dis­ dainfully at the crude furnishings as she remembered the splendid fit­ tings of the viceregal'palace at Mex­ ico City. A fine office for the Gover­ nor of all the Califomias! She fretted uneasily, but the Gov­ ernor did not notice her. “So they dare!” he was saying, “they dare, these rash new people, to send ships to our Pacific Coast, which they must well know is ter­ ritory of the King of Spain! Wbat kind of people are they, in God’s name! Are they not contented with the whole Atlantic Coast, that they must send ships here! I do not mind confessing to you, gentlemen, that I fear these people. Thqr will make us trouble some day, mark, my words. This continent, large as it is, is not large enough to hold us all. We should exterminate them." Several officers nodded anxiously in assent. .• “Well, these ships from . . . what is it they call themselves?” “Los Estados Unidos de Amerl- »» •C9> “The Dnited States of America! What blasted effrontery! I suppose we are included .in these Hnited States! Subject to their king!” "He is hot a king.your Excellen­ cy. He calls-himself a president.” “Pah! Not even a king! What is his name?” He examined' the pa­ pers again. “Washington, General George ^Washington!. Whew!” His tongue struggled -with the English words. Now I an sending word to Don Jose Dario ArguelIo at San Francisco , that if these two ships, the Columbia and the Lady Wash­ ington, put into San Francisco bay they are to be seized, and.their.cap­ tains—what are their unholy names? Captain James Kendrudc and Cap­tain Robert Gray—are to be thrown in prison.” The officers'bowed and departed. Don Pedro turned, toward his wife with inquiring eyes. She rose slow­ ly and began moving about the -lit­ tle room; ..- * c . ! • - “I remember the first time I saw a map like this,” she said, pausing, before the; map of the Califoniiaa.; “It was in'the palace of the Vice-- -ray.” She traced a trail with her finger. “And ffieytoldme I could ride to Monterey in my coach. Hum. Liars!” she hissed suddenly. Fages said nothing. She circled till she reached the cot. She sat down-upon-it. “You have that old robe of pelican down on your cot!"“So you remember it?" asked Don Pedro. “Ah, yes . . . What a hard little bed,” she murmured. “And so nar­row.” She raised her eyes to him. “It is as narrow as the grave,” replied Don Pedro. “And as hard as stone. But I am used to sleeping on it. I am as calloused as a Fran­ ciscan.” “It could hardly hold two people, could it? No matter how fond their love.”. Don Pedro looked at her strange­ ly-“Two could sit upon it, side by side, and still be strangers,” he said, and walked slowly to her.She looked up at him invitingly. “Sit down then,” she said, pat­ ting the robe of down, "and let us see if we two can not sit here and be friends."He' hesitated, then sank beside her.“Querido . . . you great bear,” she said, "come to your own' room tonight . . . and let us talk.”He drew away from her.“About what?” he asked suspi­ ciously.“About going back to Mexico to­ gether. You and I and the children. You have too many anxieties here . . . and we are not happy here together. Come, let us go back. Let us be happy the rest of our . lives. You; and I too, have done our duty by our King in this California. Come”—she caressed him—“and the rest of our lives will be a honey­ moon. Do you not desire that?” For an unhappy moment Don Pe­ dro stared into his wife’s flushed pileading face, then abruptly jerked away from her and stood in the center of the room, fists clenched, brows knotted. “Duty! Who are you to speak of duty! You do not know the meaning of tiie word! Wheedling me, deceiv­ ing me, trying to seduce me from what I-consider. right!” - Eulalia sprang to her feet. “Very well! Do as you please!” As the door closed behind her the Governor, with a curse, swept his desk clean with one hand. Papers, books, quills and ink scattered on the floor. “Damn her!” he said fervently.. “Damn her! What is it Indizuela called her? Cold, cruel Spaniardl Yes, the coldest and cruelest I ever knew. Why can not I be left in peace? I only ask to be alone to do my duty . . . I do not want to go back to Mexico, or to Spain!” He flung the words at the silent walls as though someone had chal­ lenged him. . Then Eulalia’s words came back to him. “To live a honeymoon the rest of our lives . . . a little com­ fort . . . a Uttie ease . . .” They sounded reasonable when he said them to himself. “Fifty years , . he muttered, “I am over fifty years, and the best of those years have been given to this siren, California. Why not go back?” His foot rustled against the map that lay crumpled on the floor. He picked it up and smoothed it across the desk. As he did, his fingers almost unconsciously began tracing trails which he had traveled. Here was the mysterious country across the bay from San Francisco, the tule country, and a hundred spots where his camp-fires had been. Here were crosses that marked mis­ sion sites that he had helped dedi­ cate; here was where he had the fight with the bears . : . Again he leaned his head in his hands and groaned.“Al, Dios mio, I can not leave my California! I would be lost any­where else in all the wide world, this country only, is my home, the home of my heart."“I wUl -not leave it!" he ex­ claimed suddenly. “Why should I git here sniveling in my beard be­ cause my woman torments me? What has come over me? Am I no longer a' man, and governor of Cali­ fornia? Ha!” He smote his. chest. “I shaU go now, this very day, this very hour on a long visit. I shaU go to Santa Barbara, and San Gabriel and San Diego, and have some festivities. And I shall leave Eulcdia here alone. I shaUbestern and hard . . . hard as my bed.” He kicked the overturned cot. “Come to her bed! Not I! I wiU. go out and seek the company of worthy, priests and good soldiers, pioneers all, and we wiU talk man talk, and drink deeply together.” He took his gun down from the waU and cuddled it in his arm. “And you shaU go with me, my friend, and we will kill the hugest bear in all California!” In her room at the palacio Eula­ lia was writing a lengffiy document. When she had finished it, she poured sand over the. paper, then read the contents carefully. What she read evidently pleased her, for she smiled many times. Then die caUed for a servant, and the letter was deUvered to a courier riding south with offi­ cial dispatches.“Where is the Governor’s frank on this?” inquired the courier when he received it.“It is from her ExceUency," mur­mured the servant.“Humph,” grunted the courier, and tucked it carefully away in bis bag. CHAPTER XXVI EuIaUa. watched the Governor preparing for his departure with­ out a word. His impedimenta seemed to consist mainly of smaU casks of aguardiente, and skins of wine; of guns and ammunition. He wore his disreputable leather jerkin, and roughest boots. He packed a few other belongings haphazardly into his knapsack. When he was ready, he bowed before his wife ironically and said with mock reverence. “La Senora la Gobemadora! I. go, and I know not when I return. Do not grieve for me, but control your impatience for my company until I return, which will be in due time, and according to my own free wUl. Adios!” Eulalia said nothing, but drew her brows together darkly. She watched Don Pedro and his party gallop away .across the pa­ rade-ground toward the great gate which was swung open and ready for them. A few miles outside the presidio, the Governor' and- his gay party came upon the mail courier, lying beneath a; tree, his head pillowed on the sack of mail. “Ho!” cried his - Excellency. “What is this? Is it in such a man­ ner that the King’s business is car­ ried on? But never mind,” he added hastily as tiie fellow scrambled to his Ieet guiltily. “Never mind. Do not disturb yourself. I would like to lie down and rest too. Let us aU rest, Caballeros, and let us wash some of this dust out of our throats!" AU dismounted. (TO BE CONTINUED) Boulder Dam Required an Expenditure of $165,000,000 Before It Wa» Completed Boulder dam was built between the rods walls in Black canyon on the Colorado river, that same treacherous torrent which carved out the Grand canyon and which forms the Arizona-Nevada boundary line near Las Vegas, Nev. Such a project to control the dan­ gerous floods of the Colorado, and to provide against the drouth peri­ ods which ensue after its spring­ time rush to the gulf with the melt­ ing Rody mountain snows had been conceived many years before it was begun. ' EventhelocationinBlack canyon or in Boulder canyon, 18.miles up the river, had been agreed upon by engineers. But there was no way-of financing the project, which cost $165;000,000; until the demand- for power,in the rapidly growvg south­ ern California cities and, the inter­ mediate area made it feasible.It is to be paid for entirely out of -earnings. Actual work on the main project was completed in five years,: ,two years less than anticipated:'At times there were more than 5,000' workmen , employed in the night- and-day operations, and trucks; ma­ chinery and other equipment of un- heard-ofproportions ,were ,built, just for the project. The dam. face is ; 126-feet high. From a bottom thickness of 660 feet it tapers to a top thickness of 45 feet, and this mass of solid concrete has pushed back the waters of the Colorado to form Lake Mead, the largest artificial body of water in the world. It is 115 miles in length, will attain a maximum depth of 585 feet, and varies in width from the narrow Boulder canyon gorge which separates the two main -lake sec­ tions to expanses of water many miles across.' Its fjord - marked shoreline eventually Will be 550 miles long. Origin of the “Annie Oakley” According to “American Tra-np and , Underworld Slang,” edited . .by Godfrey Irwin, the phrase “Annie Oakley” means a free ticket or pass, to an-amusement or entertainment. The passes were punched with holes to prevent their being sold <ua. regu­ lar tickets and to prevent money be- ing refunded if the show did not go on, as is customary with paid ad­ missions.^ Thus, they resemble the cards that were used for targets, - after the famous rifle shooter, Annie OaUeyi- finished, shooting ,at .them. Annie OaUey performed'with the Buffalo BilTcircut-Ior 17 years. The term originated In the circus world, but is nowincluded in common slang.

Alcoholism Marches On Latta B. RatledAe. On December 5, 1933, the Secre­ tary of Slate officially announced that the 2tst amendment to the Federal Constitution bad been duly adopted, thereby repealing the i8th Amendment. Underbroadpowers granted by Congress, the “LiquoT Machine” began to move at a Jap id speed and is still going at , high speed. These various ,coptrol meas­ ures have all proven to1 be fakes and have only been the' cause 0 ' millions of boys and girls going down as liquor wrecks. As many of yon know, many of our American citizens are ill. hous­ ed, ill-fed and ill-clothed. Instead of our government officials at Wash­ ington doing doing something to help these people solve their finan­ cial problems and eventually be able to have a comfortable home, better clothes and more food, they turned beer, wine and liquor loose to flow legally over our great Chris­ tian (?) America. Is America Christian? N olongeris it neces­ sary for us to point to another na­ tion and call it a “liquor drinking nation. '1 Accordingtpreports by the American Business Men's Re­ search Foundation, our Americans are spending $4,658.75 per minute for liquor, beer and wme. At this rate they spend: around $6 ,000,000 daily for alcoholic drinks. Our American people have spent more than eight billion dollars for liquor since repeal. It has taken millions of men, women, boys and girls to manufacture, distribute and sell this poison 10 our people. It is es­ timated that more than 1,350,000 women and girls (mostly girls) are now employed throughout the Uni­ ted States in “promotion” of sales and serving of alcoholic drinks. Theyouth of America is being trained Io follow the “Smart Set” to these liquor dens. People, what an awful place for our future moth­ ers of America to get their train­ ing. These girls are daily getting the wrong slant on life. Yet our Federal Government makes such dens legai. ... “Woe be unto a na­ tion that forgets God.” The liquor gang are doing their best to put their goods over. Vast sums of money are being spent for liquor publicity. These wets call this newspaper advertising an edu­ cational campaign. Millions of dol Iars have, already gone into the- bands of magazines and other pub- IicationiLtb help make Christian A- merica Liquor Conscious. I realize that every right think., ing person knows that our modern legalized alcoholic drinks are not only costing us a certain amount of money per year, but are costing us lives and souls as well. Accord­ ing to statistics, alcoholic dnuks have a big band in our annual fa­ tal ‘accidents. One investigator found more than 60 per cent, of fatal wrecks due to liquor. A debt of dollars and cents can be paid but we can never-, repay the debt of lives that have been ended as a di­ rect result of legalized liquor. The United States has turned back the clock many years by flooding our land with toe very thing that has always wrecked and ruined.hu manity. Perhapssome of you will say, “ Why not come down to the ques­ tion of liquor conditions here in Davie county.” I am not afraid to. You know, and I know, that we have too much, liquor right here “nnder our noses" in Davie coun­ ty. We:-a!so have beer and wine here for out young people to drink, (I have.-seen some of our -better class citizens drinking it because it is not so disgraceful : as liquor ) Got the shame legalized out, /.have you? Well, I don't think so; Now, listen to me.' The dry people of Davie county need to wake up fioro their long sleep and demand that the bootleg dens be closed and nev­ er stop until every*bootleg den i closed. We are paying officers to do this work, so why not urge them to put an end to some, yes all, of "Davie1SHotSpots;11 Iknowthat our Sheriff, Mr. C. C. Smoot, will go if you insist. Try him and see. ’' Let me urge eveiy Christian man and woman in Davie county to do bis or.her best, through the help of our county officers, to convince those who are selling liquor, beer and wine, that they are doing a great evil and are helping to ruin our boys and girls. Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians and all oth­ ers, step out and do your best to win; the wets for Christ, Wbat great workers these people would be if we could only lead them to Christ. It Hasn’t Worked So Far. The greatest summer relief crisis since the New Deal took possession of affairs in this country has been forecast by Federal statisticians. In anticipation of such an emer­ gency, it has alreacy been proposed to add $175,000,000 to the $1,250,- 000,000 appropriated for this pur­ pose by Congress some days ago. This situation only tends to sub­ stantiate the claim that government spending alone is not sufficient now nor has it ever been, to get this country out of its economic bow­ wows. The New Deal has spent 40 bil­ lion dollars since it has been in con­ trol, vast proportions of which went for pump-priming objectives. And yet, in the face of this un­ thinkable monumental cost imposed upon the people through their government, to overcome the ravag­ es of the depression and recession, the status today, according to the Federal authorities themselves, is as critical as at any time in the past five year-. Charlotte Observer. • Sunday Reflections. The Bible, as well as' nature and history ,teaches that whatsoever one sows, be shall reap—-not mav orcan reap, but:shall reap. For “like be­ gets like.” The Bible says, “ Bring up a child In the way it should go, and when it is old, it will not depart from it.” .Like the “ Prodigal son,” when he “comes: to himself,” he will think of his borne training, and if it is better than the fruits of “ wild oats sowing.” he will go back to it. Otherwise, he will re­ main with, eat with, and -die with the hogs. There is quite a difference bet­ ween bring up a child in the way it should go, and the way we think it should go, tio often. And one is a child as long as it is in train ing in the home, m the schools and in the churches. And the kinds of buds and grafts we ingraft into it, that kind of fruit it will, orcan only bear. ■ Ingraft-pleasure seeking, money getting, fine dressing, gambling, idleness,' extravegance, militarism, etc., in children, and that will be the kind of fruit they will bear and the world reaps to. its sorrow..

I. /- Get religion'and handle it as a servant. - 2 Do. religion and; anything .else that suit.3. Let religion get and do, oruse you. .0 Reader, .which sample' have: you? John L Lewis Soundly Threshed. Jonn L Lewis is the big loser .in the Pennsylvania primaries. This labor monarch bas appar­ ently been sharply repulsed by the voters participating in both the De­ mocratic and Republican primaries. '• Lewis favored his Republican primaries. Lewis favored his Republican friend, .Gifford Pinchot, for Gov­ ernor. \ Pincboc has conceded his own de­ feat by the man Lewis did his level best to defeat, JudgeArthusJames. Lewis favored ■ Lieutenant-Gov­ ernor Kennedy as the Democratic nominee for Governor. Kennedy seems to have been de­ feated by Charles Alvin Jones a- gainst whom Lewis, made his char­ acteristic war. Lewis thought be surely would win with one of these. He lost both. Not only is Lewis the big loser, but the Administration has, also, been repudiated by the Democra­ tic voters of Pennsylvania. General Farley stepped into the picture at the last moment and. let the voters of that State know that the Administration favored Ken­ nedy for Governor as against Jones. It was an unfortunate audacity on the part of Mr. Farley in the light of the returns. The tide a- gainst Kennedy was more than even the Administration could stem and it must now suffer its part in the humiliation attendant upon the de­ feat of its man. Even Governor Earle, to whom the Administration also gave a left- banded compliment when trying to sweep sentiment for Kennepy, re­ sented the intrusion of Mr. Fariey into the picture. - Although Governor Earle, run­ ning for the United States Senate, has carried the day, it is quite ob vlous that be is not .prepared to hand tbe Administration any pat on the back for what it tried to do to help Kennedy, the Lewis candidafe for; Governor, by including him in the White House. Governor EafIe did not want Kennedy to succeed in bis guber. natorial aspirations. Jones was his man for this office and Jones was unacceptable to Farley and the President. Thus it seems that the brazen move of the Administration to con­ trol the primary resulted not only in the defeat of its candidate for Governor, but has left Governor Earle embittered and unthankful for these attempted White House uninvited, dictations. The puhltc interest in the result of the Pennsylvania voting, bow. ever, is oarticnlarly focused. upon the smashing defeat of John L. Lewis who was playing, a sweetly shrewd' political game in having t wo candidates for Governor, one in each party, bearing the banners of the C. -I. O., and in having lostont in both cases. .It ts high time that not-only Pennsylvania but the whole nation were thwarting the purposes of this man as a National power in politics and in the ranks of • orga­ nized labor. Especially has Fenusylvanta bad ample reason for coming to its senses as to the ravages-.of this radicalistic leader.

Defeated in his aspiration to con­ trol the Governorship of Pennsyl­ vania as well as in his determined purpose-to name the Senator from that State, Lewis finds himself in the-aftermath of this referendum a sadly frazzled political force in his State and with the reaction of pene­ trating the remainder of the coun­ try that be bas all but come to the end of bis political tetbe-.—Char­ lotte Observer. - Chainge In Tactics Of G. 0 . Pw Is Noted. , Republican leadership in and out of- Congress is definitely out of its defensive Ougouts for an aggressive attack on new deal policies as hav­ ing caused the present depression. Whereas anti-new deal Democrats' in house or senate were left to carry the brunt of the fighting in the conflicts over the court Ml, tax re­ vision, government reorganization and wage-hour legislation, the blis­ tering minority report in the house on' the Roosevelt lending-spending bill apparently ,marks a significant change in Republican tactics. That report, circulated by the Republican national committee and showing striking similarity in some respects to the eleven point recovery program outlined by former Presi­ dent Hoover recently in an Okla­ homa address, amounts virtually to a 1938 platform. . It is intended primarily, as observers read it, for use by Republican stump orators in the state and congressional cam­ paigning this year, right down to election day- similar action by senate Repnb Iicans may supplement it; but that house minoriiy report points ,the way. It.pre-empts for Republican party campaign use this year and presumably in 1940 the “ Roosevelt depression” slogan, and projects a program of repeal or drastic modi, fication of major new deal acts, and policies, to restore business confi deuce. It * goes'- without saying that framers'of the Republican report and other party - spokesmen who helped broadcast it are counting heavily on a senate showing of . anti- new deal Democratic sympathy with tbeir position. ' The major- purpose behind the Republican surgetowardau active eleetion-year drive appears to be deeper than . that, however. Ii matks a belief in Republican ranks that Roosevelt influence and prestige is definitely on the wane due to the recession and also to the fact that he is serving his second term in the White House.—Ex.

(By Benarr MacFadden Publisher Qf Liberty Magazi e) What shall the Republican plat­ form be for 1940? That is a very much discussed subject at this time by New Deal opponents. . Party platforms are important. before election! ■ But thereafter theyIare frequently damped into the scrap heap. For example, the'1932 Democratic Dlatforn states. ‘ We believe thatla party platform; is a covenant with the people to be faithfully' kept: by the party when entrusted .with power. . . 1We advocate an immediate and drastic reduction of governmental expenditures by abolishing useless commissions and offices, consolidat­ ing departments and bureaus add eliminating extravagance, to ac­ complish useless commissioners and >s, conso’idating departments and Kureaua and: eliminating extra­ vagance. to accomplish a saving;;of not.less than 25 percent in the cctet of Federal Government; and we dill - upon the Democratic party in the Statesto make a zealous effort ^ to achieve a proportionate result. £. We advocate- the extension of Federal credit to the States to pro­ vide unemployment; relief. ti “ We advocate unemployment and old-age insurance, under S t a te ■ laws.” But all these promises were swept aside as empty and meaningless. However, th e Democratic plat­ form for 1932 should be ideal to op­ pose the present administrrtion. But first and foremost, the party leaders, whoever they be, must have a repu­ tation for honesty and dependability that will be above question. They should take to heart their promises and emphatically endorse the senti­ ment that “a party platform is a covenant with the people to be faith­ fully kept by the" party when en­ trusted with power1” The accept­ ance of that principle should be obli­ gatory and it ought to be framed and hung on; the wall of every lead­ er's office. ^ There may be a few minor changes; required in applying the Democra­ tic platform to the Republican Par­ ty. but President.Roosevelt In 1932 stood for eons'ifutional government first, last, and all the time. He ad­ vocated the principles that.every -;in-' tdligent, conservative American commends at this time He was ab­ solutely in harmohv with the de­ mands of Big Business and Iattls Business that were, Si well- repre­ sented in Washington in t'hje two ,re­ cent, conferences,": In-these Washington conferences.Big Bnsiness and Little Busi'mpa de­ manded a balanced budget^ TKiiiy severly critized the. attitude of tife present administration toward' btiai- nesg. They maintained that"the ' government cannot attack.the soured / /'/-; of jobs and expect .to help ,the on- _ unemployment situation. 1 and the • /- main planks of the Democratic plat­ form of.1932 harmonize-.most thor­ oughly with these'sentiments. And. furthermore, we should like again to reiterate that for, the first five moths of the .Democratic ad- -.-t^ ministration, the officials apparently started to carry out their promises.: Business improved more during that time than in any ,similar /period of our country’s history ' ... : There were, no WPA , or.

' ' The U engaging Kennedys have been viewed more or less en bloc in the news and Mrs. Kennedy has never been in a very sharp lens focus. She was one of the prettiest of Boston debutantes, 30 years, ago, a rollicking girl with black hair and eyes of Irish blue. Back home from her convent training, she taught her father “Sweet Adeline.” . He was John P. (Honey Fitz) Fitz­ gerald, and in his campaigns he sang his way to memorable political fame—riding like a surfboard the long, lingering “swipes” of the song taught him by. his daughter—“the flower of his heart.” Joseph P.

W ashington D igest d National Topics Interpreted B yW IL L IA M DD" rt/ADT UJl Washington.—It is curious how trade winds blow in politics. We, here invWashing- Phenomenon ton, have just wit- in Polities nessed what can well be called a phenomenon. It grows out of the primaries, in two widely separated states, Florida and Pennsylvania. The fact'that it was a Democratic primary in each instance, however, makes possible this analysis and discussion of details. Taking up the primaries in their order, Uiere was the primary in Florida where Sen. Claude Pepper, 100 per cent New Dealer, indorser of Townsend old-age pensions, and himself indorsed by James Roose­ velt, son and secretary of the Pres­ ident, licked the pants off of his challengers. He polled more votes. than'Repl j . Mark'Wilcox and for­ mer Gov. Dave Sholtz combined. It was, without doubt, a New Deal vic­ tory for which the President can claim justifiable credit. The second primary was that in Pennsylvania where there were three candidates for the United States senatorial nomination among the Democrats and three for the Democratic gubernatorial nomina­ tion. There were two candidates for the Republican nomination for each of these offices, as well, but that fact will be treated later. Few party primaries in modern times'developed the bitterness that flamed In, the* Democratic test in Pennsylvania. It was the first time that organized labor, as such, had come out into the open with avowed candidates and it was the first time Democratic National Chairman Far­ley has taken a hand in attempting to tell the voters of a state what to do. In addition, there was a state party committee which insisted upon selecting a slate of candidates in regulation boss fashion. So there were ail of the elements of a rough fight, and it happened according to forecast; Mt. Farley made an eleventh- hour public appeal to the-Democrats of Pennsylvania “for harmony.” He asked them to nominate Governor Earle for the United States senate. Governor Earle was the choice of the state committee faction. Mr. Farley also asked that the Penn­ sylvanians nominate Lieut. Gov. Thomas Kennedy, secretary-treas- urer of the United Mine Workers, for the governorship. Mr. Kennedy was thrown overboard by the state committee but he had the open in­ dorsement of John L. Lewis, head of the C- I. O. labor union. He also had the backing of Sen. Joseph Guf­ fey, who has constantly served as President Roosevelt's voice in the United States senate. The Farley recommendation thus cast out Charles Alvin Jones, of Pittsburgh, state committee selection for the governorship, and it threw Mayor S. Davis Wilson of Philadelphia into the discard as far as the Demo­ cratic senatorial nomination was concerned. Mayor Wilson was' a Lewis-C. I. O.-Guffey candidate. The Farley announcement, made on the day before the primary, built up resentment even from the men he indorsed. Governor Earle barked loud and long; so did Iaeutenant Governor Kennedy.Mr. Earle won. . Mrl . Kennedy lost. Mr.' Jones won, and shouted about it. Mayor WUson lost- and bellowed about the interference. And after the smoke cleared away, Mr. Farley said promptly, in Ef­ fect,- “Let’s all- get- together -and elect our Democratic candidates.” • • * John D. M. HamUton,' Republican national chairman, wrote • a state- - ment while the Biting sun was coming Words »p on the day fol­ lowing the j pri­ mary. He bounced biting words right off of Mr. Farley’s head. In substance, he said the Pennsylvania primary showed: I. The voters of any state resent interference from the national headquarters as re­ gards their. pafty nominees. . 2. The voters of Pennsylvania showed they will have nothing to do with John L. Lewis, despite the Jaet that prob­ ably that state is the: most tightly organized for . the C. I. O. of any state in the country. 3. The Demo­ crats, of Pennsylvania are .tiring of the “crack-popbrains” of the Roose­velt administration. Mr. HamUton, further, called at­ tention to the fact that two present Democratic members of the-house of representatives were defeated tor renomination.'Representative Stack; an admirer of Father Coughlin; rad­ ical radio priest,- and 'Representa­tive Grosby,, author of Townsend plan bills in the house, were sup­ planted. The Republican chairman sought to connect- their defeat with- a.trend away from radicalism-which he says is inherent in. the New Deal, because Mr, Stack- sometimes went beyond New Deal-ground. Now, as to the Republican battle :• James J. Davis, present senator, was renominated over G. Mason Owlett, backed by the Republican state committee, and Judge Arthur H. James was nominated for the governorship over Iormer- Gov.- Gif­ ford Pinchot, who, like Mr. Ken­ nedy, , was approved by John L. Lewis and his C. I: Olas 'acceptable. So again, the voters took things into their own hands and their state com­ mittee selections were, taken : on where the voters liked the man. But, to get back to the premise upon which I started, it has been most interesting to note the veering of the political winds. Shortly after the Florida primary, there was a hurrying for cover by dozens of Democrats in the house of repre­sentatives. They thought they saw in those results a swing again .to the New Deal, a restoration of ,the President’s popularity. New Deal spokesmen around Washington -did not let any grass grow under their feet. They used the Florida results to advantage. In good politiealfash- ion, they 'Whispe1Ped and hinted and sometimes said out loud that !the boys who went against the New Deal would get their spanking. And to their credit, it must- be. said they did a good job. For ex­ ample, I am convinced the vicious wages and hours bill that was locked so securely in a house com­ mittee would never have been brought out except for the. reaction from the Florida primary. Seldom, if ever, has there been so much haste in signing , a petition for re­port of a bill as was observed- in the case of that legislation. Gen­ erally speaking, I believe it is a fact that New Deal backbones were stiffened all along the line by Sen­ ator Pepper’s renomination—which assures ejection in Florida.* • *.. Came then the Pennsylrania pri­ mary, a vote that was preceded by •' ,. charges of graft,Maybe, bribery, bossism, Maybe etc., and the Far­ ley “harmony at­ tempt” in the day before the polls were taken. And came then a sud­ den revival of the fight that anti- New Deal Democrats were making prior to Florida’s vote. Maybe the Florida vote did not involve clear- cut New Deal issues; maybe it was Pepper’s machine, maybe it was this and maybe it was that—any­ way, their thoughts were running: Maybe Pennsylvania is a better ba­ rometer. And each one is analyz­ ing that vote in an effort to apply the result to his own district. Whatever their conclusions are, there is one thing definitely estab­ lished. Organized labor’s most am­ bitious political effort flopped. It was washed out of the road. ITie Pennsylvania rout of organized la­ bor of the John Lev/is brand is made the more significant because of the link with the White House disclosed through Mr. Farley’s in­ dorsement of Mr. Kennedy. It may be, of course, that President Roose­ velt did keep hands off, but it is quite another matter to convince the average person that the White House was not involved. For one thing, the Pennsylvania results seem to show that the John Lewis claims of political- strength can be discarded as so much hooey. Another thing to remember about the Democratic primary results in Pennsylvania projects itself into the future—to 1940, to be exact. The victory by Mr. Jones in the fight for the gubernatorial nomination de­ stroys the control of Pennsylvania Democrats so long exercised by Sen­ ator Guffey. He cannot be called the boss again under any. stretch of the imagination. And when it is time •for election of a-successor to Mt.’ Guffey, the best political judgment available predicts Mr. Guffey’s dis­ appearance as an entrant. As to the 1940 projection, attention ought to'be directed to the fact-that prob­ably' Mr. Jones, and not Mr. Guffey, will determine what' Democratic presidential aspirant shall have the great block of 72 votes in the na­ tional convention: This seems cer­ tain whether Mr. Jones wins or loses the race for governor. He is established as head of the party. All of the indications now perceptible promise an alignment s-the* Jones faction, now controlling, with the more conservative group nationally, including Sen. Pat Harrison,'Vice President- Garner and-men of that type. So, it is sfeen that the Penn­ sylvania primary can; and is al­ most certain to, have an important reaction on national Democratic strategy.• • » • ■ In addition to. .these •- circum­ stances, there is talk,, going; around v K , I now that the anti- . .taut About .

EUiott-NlghtingaIe CDPWltht1WNU AND SO ONE THING LED TO ANOTHERt V N T IL - XXT-HEN old Tim Jillis blew his “ V brains out with a rifle, he also set o ff-a box of.tfireworks- that jumped about hither and-yon and: hit quite a few people. In fact, the body of the suicide was barely cold in death before an unsuspecting citi­ zen was tarred and feathered, and the latter event caused another ex­ plosion because, it forced a sergeant to desert from the Royal Northwest Mounted Police. At any rate, let’s get back to the beginning. Tim Jillis was a lazy, good-for- nothing sort, and a booze-fighter, to boot, all of which kept his hard­ working wife, and his two fine chil­dren on the outermost edge of desti­ tution and want. Neighbors did all they could, of course, for the.sake of the youngsters, and just when things were about as bad as'they,could be,- Mrs: Jiilis had a bright'idea: She would change the house a bit and take in a lodger, someone who would pay for good food and .a warm room. With the income from the boarder, she could make it all right, she felt sure, and soon a Charlie Brown was part of the household. Now BroWn was.a sober, hard-work­ ing chap, and when he saw . the gen­ eral economic conditions in the Jil- Iis household, he dug down into his pockets and provided plenty of food, some necessary clothing, and a nice pile of fuel. Naturally, the heart of Mrs. JilIis was about to burst from sheer grat­ itude, and she put herself out to make Brown feel right at home. His slightest wish, was law, and the Jillises began to emerge .from desti­tution to a fair measure of comfort and well-being. AU of this, strange to say, aroused the anger and dis­ pleasure of the no-account husband and father who spent his days in local barrooms bewailing the fact that Brown the lodger was stealing his wife and gradually, breaking iip the JiU^ home. Instead of shooting, the lodger, as most people had expected, Jillis stuck the rifle barrel -in .his own mouth, pressed the trigger, and scattered his brains all over the bedroom walls. The coroner and the Mounted Police soon realized that it was a plain case of suicide, and the case would have'been closed right then had not. a gang of half a dozen masked men barged into the .TilTis home and seized Charlie Brown, the lodger. They took him to a lonely spot and there they tarred and feathered him from cap to boots. They drove him back to the tiny settlement and threw him into the lobby (?) of the local hotel which Was hardly more than an ordinary six or seven-room house. Hours later Brown found his way back to his room in the JUlis home, and about the only, clue he had as to tiie identity of his -kidnapers, was that all the talking and all the or­ ders had been spoken by a man with a distinctive western drawl such as was common along the Montana boundary. Things quieted, down, and Brown stayed on at the Jillis place. And then, months later he was sitting on a hotel veranda in .Lethbridge, Al­ berta, when-his ears caught up a voice that he would never forget as long as he . lived. He knew he had found the leader of the kidnap gang, , and in half an hour tiie. owner of the distinctive western drawl .was breaking down under stiff question­ ing on the part of Men of the Mount­ ed. Later he admitted leading'the ,gang, ,.and was held, for trial . And then, while assembling all the ! nec­ essary data and information for the trial, the inspector of -the Mounted Police in the district made a most startling and distressing discovery. Five of the six gangsters were .ac- counted for, and the inspector, while moving heaven and earth to find out the identity of the sixth, found that the much-wanted lawbreaker! was one of his ' own sergeants, a man with years of creditable service be­ hind him, and a mail who had al­ ways been above ,reproach in every way. At any ;rate, perhaps a bit enraged by this discovery, the: in­ spector did aU he could to make a strong unshakable case against the sergeant. But, as. the days passed; it appeared that the-inspector was -more hell-bent on “getting” that sergeant .than anyone else, and just when, conditions looked- bad for the three-striper, he turned up missing. The fact is, the tiny settlement was.loyal, to the sergeant, and while rthe inspector was fussing and fum­ing, over..evidence,aad ,courtl pro­ cedure the sergeant’s manyVfriehds dug into their pockets, made tip a sizable purse of mqhey, and, staked the sergeant to a midnight getaway on one .of the finest and fastesthorses^in , ttrc ,region.. Moreover, while the inspector was. looking uo the law on this and that, a fair­ sized escort of mounted citizens were escorting the .,sergeant over the border into Montana.. And . . .-• that’s-ihow onwthine led -• to another, until . . . well . . . g was difficult to. find-out just 'where ttiis all started and.when and where it finished.

JABIES TN THE last days of King Arthur, I his men were led in revolt against him by the frmtprous knight, Sir Modred. Warfme had continued many HKmtbs and Jhe time had now come for the last struggle. Among thosefautbful to the King was the knight. Sir B®di' vere, now constant companion to the lonelyjmd!aged king. . Overlooking the camps which were arrayed for battle, the king thought sorrowfully of his knights whom he was now fighting. His heart was heavy as Jhe battle be­ gan, relates Lord Tennyson in his story, “The Death of King Arthur. On every side ihere was strife to the death until the !field was strewn with men! .At the point of,Excali- biir, King Arthur’s famous’ sword. Sir .Modred met his end. But, alas, King . Akhur was sorely wounded. Carefully Sir Bedivere carried . his king off the -field, - But King ' Arthur knew that now he was to die.Calling his loyal knights to him, he requested Sir Bedi- vere to carry Excal- ibur down to the lake front and throw it into the water. The knight thought this a strange request, but he lifted the treasured sword and went his way to the lake.Standing beside the water. Sir Bedivere thought of the needless waste of so many jewels and of so much beauty, and he hid Excalibur in a tree. When Sir Bedivere stood again before him, King Arthur asked what he had seen when the threw the sword into the water. Sir- Bedi- vere answered, “The rippling of the waves.” “Betrayer!” cried the king. “Do as I bid you!” Standing again beside the water the knight thought: the king is ill and does not know what he says, so I will hide the. sword. Accordingly, Elizabeth Jaines : “BEAUTIFUL” LIFE Alfred, Lord Tennyson, lived a life as beautiful and unreal in its romanticism as that of any hero in his King Arthur stories. The drowning of Arthur Hal- lain, Tennysonfs college friend who understood and encouraged the sensitive poet, caused Tenny­ son to suffer a nervous collapse and to live ten years in retire­ ment. At the mid of that time he presented for* publication “In Memoriam,” an elegy to Arthur Hallam, a . poem said to have brought more comfort to sorrow­ ing jieople than any other poem. Tennyson was not wealthy, and he. and his sweetheart wanted to leave the path- of his life open for writing instead of trying to earn a-less precarious livelihood, so they waited many years be­ fore marriage was jiossible. Speaking of his marrying Bmily Sellwbod he said, “On the day I married her, the peace of God entered into my soul.” At the death of -Wordsworth, Tennyson was made Poet Laure­ ate of England,, having long en­joyed the friendship of Queen Victoria. After that hie was so besieged by sightseers, that he was forced to move to the Isle of Wight, which place is now famous' for. having been- his home. Tennyson died in 1892, at the . age of eightyrthree. he once more placed it safely away. The ,second, tune ,the, king . ..asked what he had seen and . the knight gavb the same answer as before, “The-rippling of the waves.” With < great effort King Arthur cried, “If you. do, not do! as I- com­ mand, I. will'kill you with nay own hands!” -Sir Bedivere ran to the. lake, wheeled the sword .high, and. with all' his' might, hurled it into the lake. Instantly an arm clothed in rich apparel rose from the lake, caught tiie sword, brandished it three times and drew Excalibur un­ der the waves. When the king had heard wha t 'Sir Bedivere had seen, his soulwas satisfied. Then he made his last request of his knight, that Sir -Bedivere would assist him- to reach the shares.of.the.lake. -Old Order Changeth.

THE DAVlE RECORE MOCKSVILLE, N. C. Lovely New Sheer Swiss Cottons By CHERIE NICHOLAS n & C1INE sheer cottons are outstand- 1 ing in the season’s smartest fab­ rics. It is not only that our pret­ tiest evening clothes are being fash­ ioned of most intriguing washable sheers, but the highly significant style message is that our daytime suits and ensembles with jacket or cape, whether strictly tailored or softly styled, are subscribing whole­ heartedly to the vogue for handsome, flattering sheers. Current displays of fine Swiss cot­ tons are making a marvelous show­ing of beautiful and versatile weaves that have an elegance and tone you never would dream could be in simple wash fabrics. The new thin voiles, both monotones and embroidered, are lovely enough to attend any garden party, any mid­ summer night dance, any com­mencement day exercises, any wed­ ding reception, for the bride herself to wear for that matter, and her at­ tendants. There are also sheer cotton nets and laces and diapha­ nous weaves so versatile you will want them all well represented in your summer wardrobe. The biggest appeal of all, how­ ever, that tugs at your heart, your mind and, we were going to say your pocketbook, but the latter would not be true of these lovely Swiss organdies, is that as beautiful as these crisp, cool sheers are, they come within a price that even a modest budget can afford. Call it charm, allure, or glamor, it’s yours and no mistake, when you wear a daytime dress or costume ensemble or an evening gown of ex­ quisitely sheer, crisp and colorful organdie. To justify our enthusiasm and to. prove our point we refer to the charming fashions pic­tured. The ensemble shown to the left makes a costume ideal to wear now and throughout the summer where- ever daytime activities may take you. Lustrous, transparent black Swiss organdie makes a tiny sep­ arate bolero and over skirt that but­ tons at a wide waistband over a softly draped frock of Swiss voile, embroidered in a trailing vine pat­ tern in bright red to complete a charming costume of tailored but feminine charm. You could wear the black bolero and skirt over other light dresses. - A most unusual print design adds to the interest of the party frock for a young girl, as you see cen­ tered in the picture. The Swiss or­ gandie that fashions iL has large white flowers imprinted against a background of tiny flowers in bril­ liant shades of rose against a navy blue background. The crush sash is of deep rose taffeta, tying in a youthful bow. at the back. The shoul­ der corsage is a single huge pink and rose shaded'taffeta flower. A dainty frock for a dainty miss is the fitted and flared party dress to the right. It is of clear white Swiss organdie with pin dots of deep blue. The grosgrain ribbon bows at the puffed sleeves and down the front repeat the deep blue accent. The wide range of organdie types brought out this season will both amaze and delight you. Many new print ideas give fresh appeal to or­ gandies. Mentioning only a few, there is a print design of little white plumes scattered over a pink ground you’ll love. A small spaced paisley motif in deep rich colors on white is very attractive. Perhaps the most notable of all are the chiffon or­ gandies in pastel color shadow print­ed in white, navy or black in a very exquisite and realistic lace pattern­ ing with floral motifs scattered over the background.6 Western Newspaper Union. A COAT CLASSIC By CHEttIB NICHOLAS * % Here'you have illustrated the coat classic that is a favorite type this season. White smooth wool velour is the handsome cloaking that fash­ ions it. You will find that it slips over sports or dressy frocks with equal charm. This style is ever so good-looking in the new beige, wheat- tone, copper or mustard wools, to wear over black or navy dresses. Of course you know by this time that no wardrobe is complete this season that does not include a sep­ arate coat that makes high-quality wool weave - and ’classic simplicity its fashion highspots. N E W C LO T H E S FE EL G R EC IA N IN FLU EN C E The new afternoon and evening clothes show the'graceful influence of Greek and Brahmin drapery. Shirring, gathering, tier-like effects on skirts, subtly accent hip and bosom fines. Scarves float like wings from the shoulders, drape over the head, or swathe the shoul­ders and neck of an evening decol­lete. Prints are plentiful—dots and stripes lead the field, and the newest thing is to use them in combination. The flower prints range,from tiny conventional sprigs to huge exotic blooms a foot across in size. Embroidery,, Applique Trim Frocks for Early Summer Bnportant for early summer dresses are embroidered or ap­plique trims in dull or vibrant col­ ors. Tiny red, turquoise and green stitching form stripes on Paquin’s latest crepe dress from yoke to hem. The sleeves are trimmed with the same Smart detail.' Two drapes from the shoulders disappear into slots and reappear at the yoke where the stitching begins. Minute pearls and gold thread form a geometric pattern on Nina Recci’s afternoon frock around the collarless neck and on the border of the wide sash which ties at the waist, Spanish style. Bows Give Feminine Touch to Simple Daytime Frock. Designers have taken to trim­ ming even the simplest daytime frocks with tiny bows of velvet or grosgrain ribbon. Sometimes the bows are posed on horizontal bands of the ribbon that extend to each side in military precision.

Mark 14:36.PRIMABy TOFlC--Jesus in -the Garden.JUNIOR TOPIC—In Gethsemanein term ed ia te and sen io r to pic—Courage In the Faceof . Danger. ,. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— The Challenge of God’s WOL Nd man has ever faced such a crisis as Jesus met in the Garden of Gethsemane, for He was the Son of God incarnate in order to bear the sins of the world. No one can ever fully understand the agony of soul involved when God “made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin;. that we might be made the right­ eousness of God in him” (II Cor. 5:21). It.is, therefore, true that we may never say that we have gone “through Gethsemane.” But there is a" very real sense in which our -Lord’s experience is shared by His disciples, in a lesser degree and as ordinary human beings.Our lesson brings before us the closing scene of Thursday before the crucifixion. The day has been crowded with important events, among them the eating of the Pass- over, the revelation that there was a traitor among the twelve, the in­ stitution of the Lord’s supper, the precious words of the upper room, the intercessory prayer in the gar­den. I. Exceeding Sorrowful (w. 32- 36). The text uses many words to con­ vey the depth of His soul’s agony, as though it were impossible to ex­ press it in the faulty medium of speech.. So it is, for our Lord here experienced something far more se­ rious than a dread of physical death. He was not a coward. He was not afraid to die. His soul was about to have put upon its spotless sinlessness the stain and dishonor of the world’s sins. Little wonder that He was “sorrowful even unto death” (v. 34). Since this was the road the Mas­ ter trod, should not His servants tread it still? n. Alone with God (w . 37-41). Jesus took with Him into the se­ cluded place in the Garden the three who were closest to Him in the cir­ cle of disciples. He counted on their .fellowship and sympathy in His hour of anguish. Merely to have them near Him, to know that they were there to watch and pray even though they could not share His holy burden, was to be a com­ fort to Him. We try to do as much for one another in hours of bereave­ ment and disappointment, but how much greater was the opportunity of these three, and how ignomin- iously they failed. The spirit was willing (v. 38), but the flesh took, the upper hand, and they slept! He was alone with His Father, when He prayed that if it were possible the hour might pass from Him, but in true and beautiful submission said, “not what I will, but what thou wilt.” -The follower of Jesus will know this experience, too. While he will ever find it to be true that there is nothing more precious than the friends God gives him, he should prepare himself to expect the arm of flesh to fail him. There is no more bitter experience in human relationships than to count on those who should stand by, come what may, and to find that they have slept through our hour of soul-strug- gle. III. Betrayed by a Kiss (w . 42- 46).. To betray the one who had done nothing but good, who had loved him and served him even in the washing of his feet, this would have been far more than one could have expected of even the sin-blackened heart of a Judas. But he fills the measure of his ignominy to over­ flowing by betraying his Lord with the sign of affection—a kiss. - We know full well that we may not stand on the same ground as our Lord even here, for, whereas He had done nothing to merit be­ trayal, we at our best are not able to stand forth without fault; Never­ theless, great is the hurt when we face the betrayals of life. It may be one whom we have befriended, who has been the object of our lov­ ing thought and care, and who in the hour when he thinks to gain himself some advantage or avenge some fancied wrong strikes us in the back, even as he smilingly pro­ fesses to be a friend. Shall we be embittered > in soul and give like for like? God forbid! Let us rather say as Jesus did to Judas, “Friend, wherefore art thou come?” (Matt, 26:50.) If We Kiew AU ' The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merci­ ful, men are taken away, none con­ sidering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.

W H A T t d E A T a n d W H Y £ Qouiton QoudAi tPeiduboi the Placet of Fats in th e Diet Nationcdly Known Food AuflibTity Compares the Diflerent Cooking Fats and Siortmings By C. HOUSTON GOUblSS 6 East SIHh St.. New York City. T HERE are, perhaps, m ore false notions concerning fats than any other class of foods. Some hom em akers, considering them, as “fattening" only, try to elim inate them entirely from the diet. Others have the im pression that fopds containing fat are difidcult to digest, and for this reason deprive their fam ilies of m any delicious and healthful foods. Both-» points of view arise from ignorance of dietary facts. Fats Are Necessary to Health F ats have a num ber of im­ portant functions to perform. They are a concentrated fuel food, having m ore than twice the energy value of an equal weight of protein or carbohy­ drate. One-half ounce of fat, that is one tablespoon, yields 100 calories, and were he able to eat it, a man could obtain an en­ tire day’s fuel from three-fourths of a pound of fat. It is interesting to note that it would re­quire nearly eight pounds of cooked rice to give the same number of calories. In Oriental coun­ tries, where large populations live in great poverty, fat is usually scarce and it is necessary to con­sume huge quantities of food in or­ der to meet the daily fuel require­ ments. As a result, most of the people develop distended abdo­ mens. Children Must Have Fat Because fat is such a compact food, nutritionists agree that for growing boys and girls, and men engaged in strenuous physical ex­ ercise, fat is almost essential, if they are to get enough total cal­ ories. There is also experimental evi­ dence that at least a small amount of one or more of the unsaturated- ,fatty acids must be supplied by the food if normal nutrition is ,to be maintained. And two compe­ tent investigators found, experi­ mentally, that the presence of fat in the diet tends to conserve vita­ min B in the body.Some fats, especially those from animal sources, are rich in vita­ mins A and D, and fats made from vegetable oils may contain vitamin E. Fat and Hunger' ' Perhaps the greatest service performed by fat is its ability to give “staying power” to the diet— to satisfy hunger. In this respect, it directly affects the disposition and may influence the ability to enjoy life.The shortage ot fats in European countries during the World war graphically demonstrated how a deficiency of this class of foods can destroy the morale of entire nations. With supplies cut off or very greatly curtailed, the warring countries found it necessary to ra­ tion fats closely. As a result, their people were always hungry and dissatisfied, even when their actual needs were satisfied. In this connection, it is interesting to note that a slice of bread and but­ ter or margarine will delay the onset of hunger longer than a slice of bread qnd jam, even though the number of calories may be the same.

It gives a list of laxa­ tive foods and contains a M l week’s stmple menus. A post- card is sufficient to cany your request.- use to which the product is to be put. The various forms of edible fats and oils are derived from both ani­ mal and vegetable sources. They include butter, margarine,. lard, compounds, which are a mixture of animal fats and vegetable, oils, hydrogenated fats, and the Uquid vegetable oils: Butter and margarine are used chiefly as a spread, and it is in­teresting to note that the annual per capita consumption of mar­ garine is steadily increasing, as homemakers have discovered that the use of this less expensive prod­ uct releases more money for milk, fruits and vegetables. Margarine is interchangeable with butter for dressing vegetables and in doughs containing spices, fruits and choc­ olate. Its shortening power and keeping quaUties are similar to those of butter. Lards, compounds and other shortening fats are useful not only as a means of increasing palata- bility and food value, but to add flakiness to baked foods and to produce a crisp coating which seals in the minerals and vitamins of fried foods. Lard is used chiefly as a short­ ening for pastry, and a good grade will be found to be white and free from objectionable odors. The highest grade, called leaf lard, is produced from the leaves of fat in the sides of the hog. When made by a reputable man­ ufacturer, the compounds pre­ pared especially for cake malting, for shortening pastry and for deep-frying, are wholesome, high­ ly nutritious and give most satis­ factory results. They are a most economical form of shortening. —★— Digestibility of Fala Because of their ability to re­ tard digestion somewhat and thus give satiety value to a meal, the impression has grown up that fats are “difficult” to digest. This re­ sults from confusing the length of time required for digestion and the completeness with which a food is digested. When “digestibility” is regard­ ed in the popular sense of the ease, comfort and speed with which the digestive organs carry on their work, it is conceded tiiat fats in general retard the secretion of the W o r k T h a t Y o u C a n ; " C a r r y W it h Y o u " You, too, can enjoy the luxury of beautiful lace . . . all you need is a crochet hook and some inex­ pensive string.

On the other hand, most .fats have such a high coefficient of digestibility, that under normal conditions only about one-tweuti- etit of the fat eaten escapes diges­ tion. Experiments indicate, for ex­ ample, that the coefficient of di­ gestibility of oleomargarine is SN.55 per cent. It is sometimes erroneously stated that pastry is indigestible. This statement is without founda­ tion, provided the pastry is made from a high grade shortening and is properly baked. Similarly, fried foods come in for a great deal of criticism that should not be charged to the use .of fat, but to incorrect methods of cooking. If food is properly cooked in fat that has a high smoking point, there will be no opportunity for decom- position products to develop. —4c— How Much Fotf Nutritionists have ample evi­ dence that health is best served when 30 to 35 per cent of the total energy value foods is provided in the form of fat. This will include the fat of meat and the fat used, in cooking the many delicious Iriedi and baked foods which make eat­ ing a pleasure. Questions Answered Miss C. B. R.—It is difficult to compare the iron content of meats because of variations in the: amount of fat: It has been estab* lished, however, that organ meats; as liver and kidneys, contain more iron than muscle meats, and: that pork and lamb contain much less iron than beef. Mr. F. K. C.—Answering your query as to whether pineapple juice possesses special properties as a laxative—all fruit juices con­ tain fruit acids, which tend to . have a stimulating effect upon the. entire digestive tract. However, the pulp of any fruit is far more effective than the juice in provid­ing normal elimination. Mrs. M. L., Jr. — Dandelion greens make an excellent food. Thqr contain -more phosphorus than any other common leafr vegetable, and supply vitamins A; B, C and Gv Mrs. N. H. R.—As to whether' a tendency to overweight is inher-; ited: the body build is inherited.. That is, some individuals tend to be short and stocky; others are tall and slender. However, there is no reason why the stocky indi­vidual should allow himself to be­ come obese. Frequently, a condi­ tion that is blamed on inheritance can be traced to faulty habits of diet, exercise and' sleep, passed from one generation to another.O WNU—C.

V IR G IN IA STIVERS BARTLETT G Virginia Stivers Barftell WNtTSenrlc* CHAPTER XXVI—Continued The courier spoke timidly. “Excellency,” he murmured dep­ recating]?, unfortunately, I must be, on my way, not being on a pleasure trip, like yourself, and . . . and there is a letter in there that I have on my conscience. I should have asked you about it before I left the presidio. It does not'bear your frank.”The Governor looked startled. “So? And who has sent a letter out without my frank?”"Her Excellency, La Senora La Gobernadora, Oona Eulalia.”“Ah! Let me have it, and I will attend to it.” The courier took the paper town among the rest and handed it to the Governor. It was addressed to the Viceroy of Mexico. The Gov­ ernor shook his head and rubbed his eyes. The men watched him in amazement as he tore the letter open and read it.” “A woman’s tongue is only three inches long, but it can kill a man of six feet! You,” he said to the trembling courier, “get on your way at once. I will keep this letter. And the rest of us will return at once to the presidio.” At the exclamation of disappoint­ ment from his escort he laughed loudly. “But we will stay only a short while, and before this sun has set we will be on our way again. Our pasear is interrupted, companeros, not abandoned!” A little while later the presidio gates were again thrown open, and to the surprise of everyone, the Gov­ ernor’s party swept into the parade- ground in a cloud of dust and a clatter of hoofs.From her window La Gobema- dora watched El Gobernador ride madly toward the palacio, and be­ fore she could control the sudden trembling that seized her, he strode into the room. Behind him came two soldiers, who had followed from the gate. “Senora,” thundered the Gover­ nor, “I have come to place you un­ der arrest.” He motioned to the two soldiers, who stepped smartly for­ward and took their places one at each side of Eulalia. Their eyes goggled with amazement, but they clanked the butts of their mus­kets smartly on the floor, and stood at attention.“What is the meaning of this,” inquired Eulalia, “is it a drunken prank? for what am I to be placed under arrest?”“It is no drunken prank. Woman, you are under arrest for treason. I have here”—and he slapped Eula­ lia’s letter to the Viceroy on to the table—“I have here a document written by you containing treason­able utterances against the Gover­nor of the Californias. And any treason against the Governor of the Californias is treason against his Most Catholic Majesty the King of Spain. Therefore I put you under arrest.” Eulalia grew white around the lips, and her voice shook. I “T-t-treason?” she stammered. “Yes; you have said here that the Governor of California, has been going slowly but surely insane for the past three years. That all his acts are the acts of a madman, a maniac.' Thathis governancehere !has been a long period'of misrule. That he fails to co-operate with the priests in their religious work. iThat everyone is afraid of him, and dare not report his madness to the Viceroy. That he has repeatedly threatened your life, and the lives of others, and that he neglects his duties to consort with Indian wom­ en. Is that true?”“Every word of it!”"I mean is it true that you have written this?” ' j ■ “Yes, I wrote it.”“Very well, then. I arrest you to the name of the King of Spain.” Eulalia wavered.“But—but—you can not do that! What—what are you going to do with me?” . . .“You are to be incarcerated m the. monjera, the quarters of the Indian women at Mission Carmelo until I return from my trip. Then I will consider your case.” “In the monjera! You can. not do this to me! I will not go! You dare not degrade me, disgrace me this way, before the whole community! I will not got”“You do not hesitate to. degrade and disgrace me before all Califor­ nia, Mexico and Spain, Senora. You shall go to the monjera, and at once. Prepare yourself.” “No! No! I will die first . . . Angustias!” .Angustias was cowering in a cor­ner watching the scene in terror. At the doors and windows frightened servants listened and looked. “There is no use calling Angus- tias. I am through being ruled by w o m e n . Angustias will remain here with my children, and you shall go. At once,. I said!” he thundered so guddenly that Eulalia jumped. “And if you hesitate any longer you shall., go without , any, preparation.^ The matron at the^ monjera will give., youiarobe such as the Inai8n girls wear. Well, are you not- going to get ready?” I“I am not. I am not going. Please, Pedro, do not do this to me, please. I am sorry .... .-1 wrote because l am so unhappy . . . it seemed the only way. Please, my darling, adored husband: Please, oh, please do not do this to me!” Whimpering like- a child she threwl herself at his feet before the scandalized eyes of the watching soldiers and serv­ants. Angustias moved toward her, but the Governor motioned her back. His face was stern! and dram). “Get up, woman! What a scene to make before these people! A wom­an’s tears and a dog’s limping are not real. Will you go now or shall I be forced to make you?” Still she knelt on the floor. “No! No! I will not go . . . you can not make me! OhJ Pedro! Oh, Mother of God! Oh, help me!”The Governor clutched his beard with one hand and gritted his teeth.“Pick her up,” he ordered the soldiers, “tie her hands] and put her on a horse. Take her to the fathers at Carmel and tell them it is my orders she stay .in the monjera un­til I return. Under no circumstances is she to leave before then. And if she misbehaves, she is to be beaten, “I Am Retiring,” Said One Old Compadre. like any recalcitrant Aidian wom­an.” I “Pedro!” Eulalia shrieked. “Pe­dro, not that! Ait Dios mio . . . not that!” The Governor was tremltting as much as the terrified woman at his feet.“Very well. Not beaten. But if she misbehaves, she must be put in the stocks. -Take her at once.” As the frightened 'soldiers lifted her from the floor, she struggled like a cat, writhing and sobbing. “Best tie her hands',” 'ordered, the Governor coldly. “Or you will be scratched.” He handed one a hand­kerchief, and watched grimly while her struggling hands were tied at her back. She faced! him with fea­ tures distorted, streaked with tears, but her eyes.fierce, j “Cruel, brutal, I mad Pedro Fages!” she cried. j“You will suf­ fer for this!” She wrenched against the bonds that held her hands. “Oh, let me go! Let me go!”Fages merely motioned to the sol­ diers, who dragged her out of the house. Still screaming and strug­gling, one of them managed to throw her before him on his horse. Angustias rushed from the house wringing her hands; and- weeping. AU the servants crowded out-of- doors. The soldier touched his spurs to the horse. The shrieking writh­ing La Gobemadorai and her escort started across the parade-ground to­ward the presidio gate, Angastias running lamenting beside. . CHAPTER XXVIt Forth on El Camino Real again rode the Governor of the Californip as. The lroyal road.was now a well-, defined strip of yellow highway, slowly but surely, through pressure of many-feet and hoof-beats ofmany horses, printing itself upon the pleasant soil of California connect­ ing'the Missionand Presidio Of Up- per. California with the ancient Mis­sion and one-time capital Loreto, In Lower California:-----As he rode he remembered sud*. denly that 20 years had passed since he Iud first, traveled this way. No road then; that , first party of pio­neers had pushed their'way through virgin soil, breaking a trail through the wilderness, marking !there and there with cairns of stone, but often- er with crosses. -v Twenty- years! He started at -the thought Nearly half his life. In twenty years more he would be sev­enty. AU -those years for the siren, California. As he looked at the smil-'' ingsprlng skfc the; acres, and- acres= of wild-flowers, the canons fitfPof live-oaks, sycamores, water alders, willows and all manner of trees and shrubs, as he sniffed the wild roses and drank from the dear springs; as hegazedcat themightymountains or at the rolling restless surf of the .Pacific he laughed. “My life for California!” he said. “By! God, she is worth it, the jade!” Each morning that found them on the road he carefully stamped out the remains of the camp-fire, often on a spot where be had built fires many times before. Andashedid this he wondered. Out of these ashes, on one of these little mounds,' would a city rise some day? He sighed at the . thought, but indulged in prophetic retrospection. And at the missions he visited long with the padres; ate their good food, drank their good wine; admired their fat herds and sleek horses. Then passed on to the next mission. Passed through much rich country, or wild land alive with herds of antelope and elk, bear and moun­ tain lions. He killed the giant bear he had promised himself, and car­ried most of it to the Mission San- Gabriel Arcangel. There he rested for many days in the shade of the carefully tended trees, with the mu­sic of a little stream in his ears. And there he visited with some old, old friends who had traveled with him on the expedition. “I am retiring," said one old com- padre, Don Epifanio Sanchez, long sergeant of the guard at the Mis­ sion San Gabriel. “I am retiring,” he repeated as Don Pedro sipped absently at his wine.“From what . . . ?” questioned the Governor. “From the King’s Army. The King has granted me many varas of land. And I am choosing it well. There are springs on it, and meadow land for grazing, and land to raise com and grapes. And I have al­ ready chosen the knoll on which I will build my house.” He stretched his legs luxuriously before him and sighed with pleasurable anticipa­ tion. “Ah, and what a life that will be!” “But your wife?” asked Don Pe­dro. “Will she consent to come here and live with you?” “Had you not heard? My poor wife, God rest her soul, died last year in Mexico City. She would never join me here. And I could not leave here. You understand? Life was lonely for her, I suppose. We had no children . . . and so . . .’’ He shrugged his shoulders. “God took her home. You are most fortunate, Don Pedro, in having Dona Eulalia with you. Most for­tunate!” “Yes,” muttered Fages. “And what will you do with this great rancho and house you are going to build? Will you live alone? What will you do without wife or chil­dren?” ' Don Epifanio stirred uneasily. “Pues, compadre, you know how it is. I have already chosen me a wife. Just an Indian girl. That is, part Indian. Her father was a Span­ish soldier, though God only knows who he was. But she is beautiful and very young, and has been well educated here at Mission San Gabri­ el. She can cook, and sew. She can even play the guitar! And she is young. Oh1 yes, very young. Fif­teen. But look you, I am barely fifty! So I -will have many years ahead of me, and God willing, many children.” He laughed. “Who knows but we will start a new race in this new land?" Don Pedro was very quiet as the other dreamed of his future happi­ ness over his wine-glass.“Yes,” mused the Governor to himself. “You will have a happy life. An ideal life. Ah, yes .” The other broke into his musings. “Why do you not retire, Don Pe­ dro? You have given the best years of your life to your King and this country. The King would be more than- willing1'to award you* a great slice of this land that you have gov­erned so long. ,Why not do it? Let someone else be governor, and have all the worries and anxieties, while you retire and establish a grand hacienda, enjoy your wife and chil­ dren, and let the Indians do the work?”-Don Pedro was quiet a long time, idly twirling his beaker, and watch­ing the ruddy juice washing in little waves against the glass. All un­ consciously his old friend, in relat­ ing his own hopes, had laid bare the deepest desires of the Gover­ nor’s heart.A great estate of his own! He could see himself riding over the land; could see the sleek herds, the spirited horses he would raise; could see the fields of corn and grain, squashes, beans and chiles; he wan­ dered through his own orchards and vineyards. Ai, Dios, that was what he wanted! A great house where he could entertain a hundred, guests,' .and where a hundred servants would do his bidding; where'there would be music and lowers and hospitality . . . and at the end a host of strong sons to speed his departure into that dark uncertain land . . . But the vision did not hold Eulalia. . With a bitter laugh he gulped his wine.“Before God, Don Epifanio, you are sent by Satan to tempt me! That may be your life, but it can never be mine.” “I am sorry, my friend. For there are many of us who campaigned with you who are going to do this very thing of which I have' spoken. In fact, many have sent for their wives and families to come from Mexico,, and, as I said before, those of us who have not wives will find them here. Yes, we will found a new civilization, I think, in this strange new land, and you should be one of the founders.” The Governor left San Gabriel, visited the troublous little village of Los Angeles, and left there shaking his head over the laziness and-im­morality of its inhabitants. South, then, to the Mission San Juan Ca- pristrano, and at last to the Pre­ sidio and Mission of San Diego, the cradle of California. Then he turned north again, to return to Monterey, more restless, more unhappy, more disturbed in mind than when he had started on his journey. He had not left his anxieties behind. They had traveled with him. Andtothem was added the nagging certainty that he was at a crisis in his life. He could not continue living as he had been. He and Eulalia wer9 killing each other. He must resign as governor ol the Californias. And after that, what? One of two things. Remain In the province as an hacendado; and fulj fill his dearest dreams, regardless of Eulalia. Or return to Mexico) perhaps to Spain. He groaned in spirit, and worried his grizzled beard as he considered that possibility. The soft breath of California kissed his cheek as he rode north. The very brambles and wild , rosed reached out and clutched him with clinging fingers; and when he IajJ down at night the warm eartlt seemed to cradle him in loving arms that would not let him go. . When at last her rode through the gates of the Royal Presidio Monte­ rey two months after he had swept through them, he had made a de. cision. He would not leave California. (TO BE CONTINUED) Fann Life Has No Appeal to Peasants of France; Children Prefer City Life People leave farms in France, largely for the same-reasons as ev­ erywhere else. Ever since the foun­ dation of the Third republic (nom­ inally 1870) peasant children have been getting education, though the number of illiterates as shown by the army conscript examinations is surprisingly;, high. With education, the ambition of the average peasant has been to make his son a gentle­ man (a monsieur), which means generally to get him a white-collar job. His daughter, likewise he pre­fers to' marry "off to a city. desk worker rather than to a young .farmer,, observes a writer in ’the Chicago Tribune.By a process which-has gone on in other languages, even the word peasant has fallen into: bad repute. It is now never used in the news reports of the Paris press. ’. When a word must be used, a peasant te called a cultivator. The. word ferm- ier. (fanner) has. never been used" -extensively,, and not’ often’ would it. be an accurate translation of'.our word fanpner.Even if he cannot get .a coveted job with/the govemmenti-.the.young, peasant usuaUy prefers to come to ^tfte-' city: and take a chance. He may get on the chain in an auto­mobile factory or punch tickets in a subway station. The average French'farm has not been improved as the. American one has within the last generation. The radio is rare;, automobiles are even rarer. The standard of living is undoubtedly higher than before the war, and currents of life now flow freely through the French countryj side, but . the peasant still thinks oi his life as a dull one. .

We believe the. groundwork has been laid for an era of unprecedented prosperity for agriculture, laborand industry.” It’s comforting to find that some­ body believes in the coming, of such a reign of good times. The New Deal itself doesn’t seem to have any such illusions, nor to have adopted the technique of whistling, in the dark, to maintain its courage. .Spokesman for the National Ad­ ministration announced the same day that this Inspiring prophecy was being “believed” in by the North Carolina Democrats in con­ vention that “the most critical summer yet faced” in unemploy­ ment is. upon the country. Even Mr. Hopkins, who. as head of the relief , administration should at least be given credit for knowing a little something about the situ­ ation, and who stands right over the right shoulder of the Ptesident, clearly believes nothing that the convention believes. For, as The Greensboro News so pertinently remarks, “at virtually the same time that this document of approaching prosperity for all was being, formulated and whooped through WPA Chief Hopkins was opining at a press conference in Washington that 'I think we are going to have'a serious relief prob­ lem in the near future.’ Pointing out that approximately 2,600,000 individuals are now employed oh work-relief jobs and that the total still is rising. Mr. Hopkins em phasized the continuing drop in employment and the fact that un employment insurance benefits are already beginning, in many instan­ ces, to run " out.’’—Charlotte Oo server. ’ The Women Don’t Like It. Housewives are. generally accus­ tomed to thrift in their own house­ holds. Perbaps thatiswhy several thousand wives have joined a recent “revolt” against continuation of the national policy ot waste and wild spending iu Washington. Two women in a small New York community neither of them active in politic* started the unorganized rebellion against Federal Spending. They were simply alarmed at the ever mounting cost of living caused by increased taxation of all goods and foodstuff they had to buy, so they drew, up a petition to their Congressmen. Within 24 hours after their petition was made public approximately jo.ooo other house wives had joined in the. protest, and now women’s groups .throughout the country have taken up the cud­ gel to command respectful attention from the spenders in the Capitol. Any legislator whose own ob­ servation has not taught him, may learn from, history that women’s “revolutions” 'are formidable and likely to accomplish what they set out to do.

One of the frankest commenta­ ries made on the business situation by any high Administration author iiy recently, came from Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau, who said that business appears to be steadily getting worse. Thaj pes. simistic conclusion is amply sup­ ported by the statistics. Business is' not getting worse rapidly—but the trend of the indexes is un­ doubtedly downward. .April was a n -'exceedingly ' disappointing month.' ’ Attitude, of many experts is reflected by the Annalist, which said on April.29 that “by the time the new pump priming program be­ comes effective (assuming it be­ comes effective at all) business will be so depressed that any probable stimulus will merely result in rais­ ing the business index to a level little if any higher than it was when the program was first an nounced.” Looking at the picture from the statistical point of view, the busi­ ness activity graph provides some illuminating comparsions. April 29, ihe general index for the latent week covered stood at 58.1 as com pared with 58.4 for the Dreceding week,, and 59 I for the week a month previous. A year before, the index was at 77. The average f*.r the years 1933-37 was 66 .3. Thus, business is- now operating at level substantially below even that average, which included three years of abject industrial depres-. sion, one fair year (1936'). and only obout seven or eight months of comparatively . prosperous times (January to Obtober, 1937.) Equally seriously is the. fact that the decline has finally reached practically alt lines of - activity— not just a limited number, as was the case when the current, recession began. Extremely sever drops have occurred in electric' power production and freight car loadings a fact that casts a great'deal of light on the retrenchment taking place throughout all industry and com­ merce. ■ Steel is down is again, with prospects for the immediate future dark*. The automobile in­ dustry isin the doldrums, and it is reported that plans for .1939 chang­ es and innovations have beep a- bandoned by some makers. In all the basic industries strongly favor­ able factors, either for the long or short pull, seems to be almost en­ tirely lacking. Industry tried to gain some cheer from the President’s recent state, ments to the effect that he wished to cooperate with business' leaders. However, there is only a tenuous hope that anything tengibie will come of it, Taere have been many “conferences” in the past, and none have.been fruitful.

Famine May Come. . (D. A. McPherson. Cuthberr, Georgia) . . Vou know, folks, Franklin Roosevelt, Hei.ry Wallace, the Se­ nate and House are going to keep on monkeying with crop control until first and last we will probably have a famine in this couutry. Fun­ damentally it is the same old sin of Adam and Eve down in the garden seeking to usurp the power of God aod to know as much as He did. When vou enter the domain of birth control and crop control you are simply trying to crowd God off the throne, and np to date I have never seen or heard of anybody who coaid do that. Tbe fact of the matter is the divine plan brooks no interference by the evil machina­ tions of men with these laws of re­ creations, whether it be in the ani­ mal or plant kingdom, for in the making of man and the earth, it was expressly stated that God was pleased with what He bad done. And while He did command all these things, He subdued for the benefit of the superior creature, man, the multiplying of the race and the conservation of “herb hear­ ing seed” which was to meet for the human family, constitute, and so implied -the whole scheme of peretu’ty. IIenty Wallace has donned the robe of a Joseph down in Egypt, and as if by inspiration, and witti honey anti nectar on bis lips, talks glibly about the “ever normal gran­ ary.” And, deplorably, the big majority ot American people have no more sense that to believe a can­ ard like that if such was the case, God would be deprived of the big whip that is necessaiy to. drive us to our'knees when sin has engulfed us as a people. Throughout the generation the empty force that made people look away from meal barrel has been the compelling the earthly to the bill from which cometh our help. For many years now God lias been gradually,, but surely, disappear ing from the horizon of men’s thinking-, and for once, if never before, it .may be said that we are 'a' Godless nation. Evidence of this may be seen in the decad­ ence of such excellent virtues as' revence, emotionalism, church at­ tendance and. the fear of God. Tbe self-sufficient spirit has seiz­ ed us and we are vain and foolish enough to think the ' whole order and" course of events in life may be changed and subjugated to serve our own ends' and purposes. Just as the Tower of Babel project' fail­ ed, so will crop control an “ever normal granary” caflumux, be­ cause they fly into the face of God and His righteous will. ; Better let folks make ail they can. That is the only way out of a de­ pression, whether it be a Hoover or d Roosevelt depression. Why Machines Rule.

To be a patriot at all you must be a patriot above, all. There would he less relief demand in this country if the people would place their necessities ahead of their necessities ahead of their pleasures. NRA Johnsott says that inconsir* tency and ignorance are paralyzing recovery forces Well, who's run­ ning this country, anyhow? Think of this: No country at any time in the history of the world ever Iegisfated. itself back to prosperity. Somebody had to'do some work. It is significant that the aliens who cuss our country the most, fight the hardest against being deported back to their native land. Forty-two thousand idle textile workers'is the last count from Sooth Carolina and “Old Hoover” has not been President in over five years. It is surprising to think that FDR or any New Dealer could expect the Prosperity Kite to stay up in the air with a 40 biiiion dollar debt tied to its tail. In the coming campaign the A- merican people will have a much' better reason to “View with alarm”, than will the New Deal administra- tion to “Point with pride.” Bungling Barkley of Kentucky, hit the nail on the head when, as Se­ nate mouth-piece for FDR. be said: “Spending is true democracy.” It sure is, under the New Deal. The. difference between the New Deal and algebraic calculations is that in algebra only the last letters of the alphabet are need to represent unknown quantities,” while in. the New Deal the whole darn alphabet is used to represent unknown quanti? ties,” FrubabIy “it has all been planned” that way.. A New DeaUr in our community seems to think his party is in a bad predicament. He says: “We- are out of a slogan, and have no plat­ form.” 'I "Free licker, dead pigs and boondoggling.” For a platform: “Seven cent cotton, 70 cent wheat and ten. dollar lumber.” For a bracer: ‘‘A slip-seat on a PWA shivel handle.” Listen: What this country needs is a cessation of all this radical ex­ perimental legis.ation. Let the peo­ ple work out their salvation in the same 'manner that they used an mak­ ing this the richest country on earth. We can no more'spend pur way: out of the depression by Federal' ex­ penditures than a chronic rheumatic can climb a telephone pole back wards. It is estimated that 24 cents oat of every tax dollar is spent for relief. And the New Deal has been running this country for over five years. When it comes to putting folks on the bum,-the New Deal has never had an equal. New: Deal policies have recently pat 42 thousand tex­ tile workers out of employment in South Carolina.

THE DAVIE RECORD. MOCKSVILLE, N. C. National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart National Presa Bulldlne Waaklneton. P. C. Washington--Congress is packing Its duds. It doesn’t know exactly • what date it winWant to g0 home, but go Co Homo home * it will, injust a few Weeks more. There is nothing more con­ tagious than homesickness among congressmen when primaries are in the air and votes around the grass roots await to be garnered. I suppose that when they go, there will, be a certain amount of criti­ cism about the do-nothing congress. Particularly win they hear barks that they have left the nation’s most important problem unsolved. They win be told how they should have charted a course to lead the country out of the depression and how they failed to do anything towards restor­ ing unemployed to permanent jobs.The prospect of this condition, it seems to me, warrants a general discussion without pulling punches. Cbngress is supposed to formulate national poUcies. It, therefore, must accept some blame for its failure. But it is not alone to blame, and the voters ought to know it. There ere some other spots to which at­tention should be directed—in all fairness to the members of the house and senate.Let us look back a bit. Itmustbe agreed, I believe, that recovery is the foremost problem. Recovery plans' must be divided. Attention must be given, .first, to relief of the destitute, theunemployed. Second­ ly , policies must be laid down that will permit business, big and little, to take' on workers—or obviously they will remain on the relief rolls. Since ,last November, there have been pleas, threats, argument—all seeking establishment of policies that would permit business to have, confidence. There has been nothing from President Roosevelt in the way of suggestions or proposals along this line, and congress re­ fused, cowardly enough, to lead the way. As. the., session wore on, unem­ployment increased until the other day the social security board made public figures showing that about 19,900,000 persons were, receiving government assistance of one kind or another—almost 6,300,000 fam­ ilies. And during the same period, the volume of business fell further into new low levels. The whole pic­ ture undeniably has grown worse. Then, there came from the Pres­ ident the request for the use of further money, some six .billion dollars of it. It was the so-called lending-spending program that has just been enacted and the congress, anxious to avoid conflict with presi­ dential will, rubbed its collective hands and said, in effect, “There! That takes care of the unemployed.”So we will have new post offices, new bridges, new roads, new this and new,uthat—some .time. - -Those things can not be put over on a day’s notice. It takes time to get them started where they will employ workers. The portion of the six . billions allocated for relief, of course, can'be used at once because MT,.Harry Hopkins can have his boys and girls write checks at a rate which is positively amazing. The public construction phase will be valuable, or ought to be, to the candidates because, the candidates can say to their political meetings: “Here it is—and from my hands, too.”After that money is spent, then what?. My conviction is that we will be just where we started. That is to say, we will be just where we were feree years/ago. Every..one recalls, of course, how there was a pump priming of business then. It cost $4,880,000,000. The result was some very nice postoffices and other . public buildings and an addition of $4,880,000,000 to the national debt. The administration tried some other pump priming, too, and succeeded in building up the national debt still higher. It is now pushing right up to the forty-billion mark.. . . Since the pump priming and the other spending ideas failed to ac- / c ; complish anythingSponamg m the other trials, Fmlo there seems to be no reason to ex­ pect the new outlay of cash to do more than create a new high record for the national debt. It will do that, beyond question. But I said at the outset that there were others to blame. This fact has been brought to the fore by the condition lately much publicized in Chicago and Cleveland. Scenes, dis­ tressingly reminiscent of the lines of starving in 1930 were re-enacted in Chicago and Cleveland within the month. The cities were out of cash and the relief lines became riotous. There is not pouch to be done about starving people but to feed them. That is accepted. Yet, how did that happen? Why was the condi­tion allowed to reach that stage? Here is the fact that will make me . very popular; I am sure, in the areas where the shoe fits: The states have failed to assume their proper share of the responsibility. ' Let me repeat that: The states have failed to assume their proper share of responsibility! They have consistently done so, and the reason they have been chiseling and pull­ ing at the federal teait is because they have been taught by the Wash­ ington government .through. six or eight years that they could, do it and get away with it. The politi­cians within a state can not be blamed wholly, because they are. politicians, seeking election or seek­ing to hold office or parly power or what have you. It was so much easier to bring pressure to bear in Washington, go home with big checks, shout to the folks that they were bringing home the bacon— without adding to the tax of their home folks. That is, they said there was no additional tax because it was a federal tax that had to-make up for what the states drew out and the federal taxes are not as easily seen as taxes in a state, a county or a city. Ithas come to such a pass these days , that few state politiciansdare to suggest .at home that they raise the relief funds locally. It would be political suicide, they feel. So they follow the beaten track to Washington, and the Washington politicians from President Roosevelt down haven’t the courage to send them back home without some token of appreciation—something of a mi­ nor character like a check for a few millions and a promise of more. If one is really going to trace this thing down to its start, I believe it has to go back to Herbert Hoov­er’s administration. It will be re­ called that Mt. Hoover proposed and obtained congressional action on a plan by which the Reconstruction Finance corporation was created. It was to loan money to . tide business over until the depression had worn itself out. It was not a sound plan then; it is not sound how. It was opposed by Democrats then ,but it has been expanded and enlarged, and glorified by them since. But the fact that it was created consti­ tutes the tragedy. The . feet that there was a spot where government cash cpuldhe borrowed started poli­ ticians looking to Washington. It was a pretty soft touch for them. The LaFollette type of mind and the group of professors who figured .the nation could spend its way out of the depression moved right into the long halls and took over desks in every place they could find chairs. The . thing spread like' wildfire and it is still is going, as witness the latest program involving six billion dollars.* * • It is going to require many years of effort to restore states to their _ _ , own boundaries.Long Road They have got Ahead themselves in todebt with the fed­ eral government; they have found how easy it is to do that and they will do more, unless the people them­selves .realize what it meaps. Un­less the states again take control of their own.affairs, state lines will mean nothing. The nation will be run from Washington bureaucrats’ desks and good government 'by the •people themselves will be a tiling of tiie past. . There is a phase of this control from Washington upon which I want to record a few especial observa­tions. I refer to the great, waste that occurs when the federal gov­ernment attempts to handle such a delicate and direct proposition as relief. This phase1 irks me‘ and it ought to irk every one who hates to see stupid administration use up so touch money needlessly. My morn­ ing paper a few days ago carried a dispatch from Cleveland announc­ ing that public ftinds—from. Wash­ington—were going to: be used' to give work to four hundred men for six months. Theyare going tpcount the trees in Cleveland. Think of it —coimting trees as a means of giv­ ing work! Surely, it is possible to create some other kind of work. I believe it would be better to give that money outright for the con­struction of ‘ some homes for. fifty families, or any one of a hundred thousand things. Such things as this are bound to happen;-however, when the states; counties and cities, lean so heavily on. Washington.. Citizens lose con­trol when they let their politicians dodge responsibility by calling on Washington for'everything.. And there is no doubt in the mind of any one who has studied, the, prob­lem but that the citizens will pay more when their relief -needs are met from Washington than , if they forced their own officials to assume the responsibilities of. their, offices.I suppose, however, that it is not in the interest of the politicians to bring about recovery in a normal way, whether they are local or state or national politicians. If they can accomplish election the way it is now being done, they may as well continue. Each one has only one political life to give to his country and if he can make , that political life, a- good long one by kidding his, constituents—well, wby not? I repeat, however, and there can be no denying the fact, that relief is going to cost each citizen more be­cause: the money is being chiseled out.of Washington rather than the state, or, local treasuries. ® Western Newspaper Unloa. WHO'S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL P. PARTON Pres. Vargao fiandy With Six-Shooter Homo Talent Export at Strong Arm "VTEW YORK.—President Getulio Iv Vargas of Brazil was a far- western frontiersman in his youth, still . wearing “bombachos,” or gaucho trousers, for informal dress, and quite in char­ acter pumping a six-gun at the pal­ace, and putting down a Graustark- ian revolt. A swarthy, stocky little man, quick on the draw, he has never been gun-shy, and impromptu shooting has been an occasional obligato in his rise to supreme power. When he established his totali­ tarian state On November 10 of last year; there were those who . saidhe was dealing in the dark of the moon with the green shirts —that here was where Germany and fascism got a toe-hold on this continent. The green shirt revolt and its vig­ orous suppression by Sr. Vargas seems to be an answer to that, even if he had hot previously made it clear that his authoritarian state was not of the European model.

HOUSTON GOUDISSS Eut 39th St1, Kew York Cltr- A S SCIENCE and civilization have progressed, painstaking investigators have sought to replace' ignorance with knowledge, to substitute truth for superstition. But in spite of their efforts, our eating habits are still influenced by a multitude of food fads and fancies, which should have no place in this enlightened age. <$>■ Xt Some of these are harmless; others may endanger health. And. the homemaker mast learn to distinguish between fact end fancy. Fisk Is Not a Brain Food One of the most persistent fallacies, is the notion that certain kinds of food are es­ pecially beneficial for certain parts of the body. Many peo­ ple believe that fish is a brain food and celery a nerve tonic. Let­ tuce is thought to be a soporific. None of these things is true. The idea regarding fish probably arose because fish contains phos­ phorus and the brain also contains phosphorus. How simple it would be if one could in­ crease brain power . merely by eating - fish.- Unfortunate- ,’ Iy, there to nothing to it! The brain, like other parts of the body, requires ~ ; a balanced diet. Nocase has ever been reported of a man soothing the irritated nerves of his wife by-feeding her celery. And as for lettuce, it to a fine source of minerals, vitamins and gentle roughage, but it does not contain any narcotic drug that in- duces-sleep. Other Fallacies Disproved Science has exploded many common- notions about vegetables which may change your ideas of what is best to buy and eat. Many homemakers prefer lettuce that to light green in color and they be­ lieve that string beans which snap are superior in quality. But it has been demonstrated ,that , deep green lettuce is much richer in vitamins and that a snap in string beans merely indicates that . the beans., have been kept in a cold, moist place. • False NofioM About Fruit A score of superstitions cling, to the eating’ of fruits. There is a false notion that.acid-tasting fruits cause or aggravate rheumatism, because they- produce “acidity.” The truth to that most fruits, re­gardless of their acid taste, leave an alkaline ash following diges­ tion. • One often hears that fruit should not be ,taken, at the sametime as milk because the fruit acids will cause the milk to curdle. But the fact to that milk to always ,cur­dled in-the,stomach by the hydro­ chloric acid.. NotNecetMryioSipMiIIcAnother false idea to the wider spread' notion .that milk must' be sipped slowly or it will be difficult to digest. Thto has been refuted by a widely known investigator who made many, tests. One day he fed a man a pint of milk in 10 seconds. The next day the same man was fed the same amount of milk in 10. minutes. On both oc­casions the contents of the stom­ ach were examined a half hour later. X It was discovered that the milk which was drunk in 10 seconds had formed smaller curds .than the milk which was sipped in 10 mim utes. And in both cases, the curds Do You Want to Leam H o n i t o P l a n a I d H I i t I i i e I M e t ? GetThisFreeBulletin OSered by C• mBeuston Goudlss of this newspaper are. invited to write to C.

It gives a list of laxa­tive foods and contains a full week’s sample menus. A post­card is sufficient to carry your request were of practically the same con­ sistency. T-'k— Wafer With Meals? It to widely held that water should not be taken with meals, the argument beingthat it dilutes the gastric juice and thus inter­ feres.with digestion.,--This, sounds., logical - and - many people - have been fooled. But the truth of the matter to that water-stimulates the. flow of the digestive juices and careful research has estab­ lished that normally, water taken with meals in reasonable quanti­ ties aids digestion.. — - Danger of Half Truths The most insidious food falla­ cies are those which contain some portion of truth—for example, the belief that cooked fruit to more wholesome than raw, fruit. It to true-that cooking increases the di­gestibility of some fruits and also, has . a steriliring effect. On ,the other hand, most fruits are easily digested -In the raw state, are more palatable and richer in vita-’ ffiins. A widespread belief which has a small portion, but only a small portion of truth, to that whole wheat bread to vastly superior to white bread. Whole-wheat bread contains more minerals, vitamins and roughage than white-bread. But the. minerals-, and. vitamins' lacking in white bread can easily be supplied by other common foods, and-there to no justification for going to the extreme of'omit­ting white bread entirely from the diet. —k— Fad Dieto Lack Balance Far more- harmful than the'fal­ lacies regarding individual foods are the fed diets' constantly put forth by those who seek to ex­ ploit the homemaker’s desire for dietetic knowledge. —k—- Foods Not Incompatible A fed diet which has gained a large number of adherents in re­cent years to based on the notion that certain '■ foods — notably starches and.proteins—are incom­ patible ’and,, shoqld not - be ^con­sumed at the stone meal because they cannot be digested at the Ar» You You can REDUCE Safely- SnralY* ComfortahlY StmlJirTbitPnt AriMSi OgntdbrC-BtmtmGcedin Readersoftliiinew«paper*r«invited to w riteto C.

Well, it’s to be made again, with Errol Flynn, Pat- ric Knowles and Basil Rathbone in the leading roles. Claudette Colbert, who recently got home from that European vaca­ tion, likes simple clothes—but listen to the description of the dress recent­ ly designed for her by Travis Ban- ton, one of moviedom’s ace design­ers. It’s frilly, it’s frothy; it’s of white organza, covered with a print­ed pattern of cherries in black. The skirt is shirred and full, the neck­ line is outlined by a flounce, with wider flounces forming the sleeves. Sounds anything but simple! Alice Brady has had years on fhe stage and-years in the movies, but when you hear her on the radio you may be sure that she is nervous. The microphone simply scares her into such a state of nerves that the pages of her script have to be past­ed on cardboard, to keep them from rattling. Encouraged by "its success in building Ginger Rogers up as a dra­ matic star, RKO is going to try to do the same tbing with Ruby Kee­ler, the dancer who is Mrs. Al JoI- son in private life. Ton’ll see the first results of the new campaign in “Mother Carey’s Chickens.” Vith Fay Bainter and Ralph Morgan also in the cast, the girl will have to act or be utterly swamped. Bob Ripley has discovered, in his search for “Believe It Oir Nots,” that it is three and two-thirds times as easy for a man. to become an amazing person as it is for a woman to do so. He finds that amazing women are just as interesting as men, but rarer. The only reason he can give is that they don’t have as much chance to distinguish them­ selves as men do. . The first thing any of us know, someone is going to form an organi­ zation to protest against radio pro­ grams which are awfully amusing to the audience in the broadcasting studio, but pretty dull to those who just tune in, and can’t see what is going on.

The path is still in the brain, though not plain enough for use. No doubt you remember Utysses.as a former acquaintance, but '.perhaps his stoiy as told by the immortal Homer, is vague.When Paris stole Helen of Troy from Greece, all the kings of Greece were held to their oaths to fight in her behalf. Ulysses, noted for his wisdom, re­ fused to go into such a war. His life was happy with Penelope,. his beautiful wife, so he feigned mad­ ness and went about the countryside sow­ing seeds that had been cooked. The c o u n c ilm e n o f Greece suspected cunning so they placed the young son of Ulysses in the path of his plow.When the “mad­ man” reached the child he turned the plow aside, thus dis­ closing his sanity.The ten years of siege at the walled city of Troy were tedious to Ulysses, who ever longed for Penelope and who feared for her safety Mter his long ab­ sence.

It was even necessary for him to make a t?Ip into Hades, land of departed souls.Once he and his men found them­ selves on the island ruled by the one-eyed giants known as Cyclops. They hid in: a cave which they dis­ covered to be the home of a giant, who gleefully shut them in his cave and killed two men each day for his dinner. While he slept one after­ noon, Ulysses heated a staff and put out the eye of the giant, hoping then to escape. But the passage­ way was narrow and the giant care­fully felt each animal as he let his sheep out .to pasture. With cunning,' the Greeks killed all the sheep and skinned them. In the morning they walked out, hold­ing the skins over them. Other adventures beset the men. There was the island of the Sirens, the lovely women who sang divine­ ly, luring men to their island where the men were then powerless. By stuffing cloth and wax into the ears of his men and having himself lashed securely to the mast, Ulysses passed the Sirens, being the first man to hear them and to escape their charm. Another adventure was the island where an enchantress turned men into animals, but Ulys­ ses gained power over her and freed all the men whom she held. Penelope’s Troubles. After wandering long and far, Ulysses reached Greece. He had heard of the- suitors who had fastened themselves to the house­hold of Penelope on the assumption that her husband had long, been dead. They had stolen her sub­stance until she had much ado to protect her husband’s home. To evade them she had said that as soon as she completed the web which she-was weaving, she would choose a husband. Each day she wove, and each night she unravelled, but now they had discovered her trick­ery and had forced her to set a date for choosing.a husband from among them.Disguised as a beggar, Ulysses went to the back'of his home. The only Uving thing that. recognized him was Ms dog and it died of joy. His-old servant, now a swineherd, recognized a scar on Ulysses, and rejoicing and sorrowing together, told'his master of the situation in his home. He praised Penelope’s skillin . handling the lecherous men. IUysses sent for his son, now a man,‘ and they two planned re­ venge.As a beggar Ulysses went to the banquet.

His­ tory shows us that the expansive­ ness and elevating power of the Gospel depend , upon the promi­nence given to the sacrifice of the Cross. An old fable says that the only thing that melts adamant is the blood of a lamb. The Gospel reveals the precious blood of Jesus Christ, Ms death for us as a ran­som, as the one power that subdues- hostility and binds hearts to Him” (Alexander Maclaren). We consider today that darkest of all days in the Mstory of the world—when wicked men with cruel hearts and hands crucified the lov­ing Son of God. But, thanks be to God, it was also the day when bright hope shone forth for sinful human­ ity, for in His death Christ bore our sins upon the tree, the veil was rent, the old sacrifices were set aside, and the “new and living way” was opened into the “holiest by the blood of Jesus” (Heb. 10:20). , I. Crucified—Ibat We Might Live (w. 22-28).The details of and circumstances, surrounding the crucifixion are of deep interest to every Christian., We stand with Luther and weep as we see Christ’s unspeakable agony, not only of body but of spirit, and we cry as did Luther, “For me, for me!” How can any believer contemplate the cross and withhold self, sub­ stance, or service from Christ? Equally earnest and heart-search­ing is the message of the cross to the unbeliever. He knows he is a sinner (Rom. 3:23), he knows th'at the wages of sin is death” (Rom. 6:23), and he knows that “neither is there salvation in any other, for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). Here at the cross he meets that one “who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed (I Pet. 2: 24). There were two malefactors who were crucified with. Him, and one railed at Him. The other said, “Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom” ; and Jesus said to him, “Today thou shalt be with me in Paradise” (Llike 23:39-43). Unbeliever, who reads these lines, will you not just now take the eternal life wMch Jesus died , to make possible for you? H. Forsaken—That We Might Be Accepted (w. 29-36). The railing, head wagging; and other abuse that men. heaped upon Jesus as He hung on the cross, must have been a grevious thing for His tender loving heart to bear. But it was as nothing compared .with that hour when, covered with all the sin and curse of the world, He who knew no sin “was made sin for us” (H Cor. 5:21), and God turned away from .Him. We cannot fathom the full mean­ing of that hour, we dare not at­ tempt to explain it,. we can only accept it and thank God that be­ cause He did become srn for us we may be “made the righteousness of God in Mm” OI Cor. 5:21). • In. A VeU Rent—That We Might Enter (w. 37-39). The death of Jesus was not the pitiful weakening of a human mar­ tyr. Here was toe Son M God, cry­ing with a loud voice (v. 37), giving up His spirit to the Father (Luke 27:46), declaring that the work-of redemption was “finished.” As a visible indication of that part —and as a declaration that the old dispensation of law had given place to the dispensation of grace, God tore the temple veil in twain. Only He could have done it. No man could have torn this sixty-foot long, twenty-foot wide; and inch-thick curtain from top to bottom, ty had hung in the temple to keep all but toe High Priest out of toe Holy of Holies, and he entered with fear and trembling but once a year as the representative of the people. Now all this is changed. We have now, “brethren, boldness to enter into toe holiest by toe blood of Jesus, by a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil.” Therefore, let us draw near with a true heart and full as­surance of faith” (Heb. 10:19-22). ■ Homely SimUe He ’shall, cover thfee with his feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth ,shall be thy sMeld and buckler.—Psalms 91:4..

WILLIAM BEEBE returned recently from a tropical ex­pedition. He had . collected 20,000 different specimens of marine life. He brought back a fish not as long as his little finger. This was his most valuable specimen, a sail- fish 1% inches long. The familiar sailfish caught by anglers in California or BTorida weighs from .30:to more,than: 100 pounds. Their-Iength measures the height of a man or a giant. Some are even ten feet long. TTie “baby” sailfish measuring 1% inches may not be a “baby” at all. The . tiny fish exactly like the ten foot sailfish puzzles Doctor Beebe. In an interview on landing, the Well known scientist says toe tiny sailfish might be toe first young sailfish ever captured, or may be a new miniature species. There is much doubt of the I% inch sail­ fish being the young of the or­ dinary sailfish because toe little fish seems fully formed. The sailfish derives its name from toe huge dorsal fin that ex­tends a foot or two above toe body and resembles a sail. These fish feed on toe surface of the water and they are caught by trolling in the daytime. The miniature sail­fish secured by Doctor Beebe was caught at Mght under search lights, on a voyage that took Doc­tor Beebe and his companions 2,000 miles down the west coast from Cape Lucas to Panama.

IN ADVANCE - * SO • Well, it’s a long time until the next primary, but only five months until the election. Iredell countv democrats did good day’s work when thev defeated Con Iohnsou and nominated Zeb Vance Turlington for the legis­ lature. Theboys who ran for the various county offices in the recent primary seem'to be in a good humor despite the fact that more than half of them were defeated. So mote it be. The two colored brethren who were candidates for the legislature from Alamance county, were com­ pletely snowed under in the recent primary. Democrats have quit call­ ing the Republican party the negro party in North Carolina. Two democratic ladies were can­ didates for the State Senate in North Carolina, but the dear voters de feated them in the Jnne primary. The democrats want the ladies to vote for them, but when it comes to dividing the pie—well the ladies places are in the home. ■ Only two weeks until the black­ berries will be getting ripe. Here’s hoping our subscribers who are due ns on subscription will get busy and send us a few dollars. The berries are not so good without some cream and sugar, or some crust3. Please let us hear from yon, Mr. Delin qnent. . The editor of The Record is neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, but our readers will re ■ member that we told them away back last winter that Bob Reynolds would defeat Frank Hancock for U. S. Senatorby a majority of ioo. ooo. Our figures were just a little too low. The boys cuss Bob, but when voting time comes they go out and vote for him. ... Marshall Kurfees, who was run­ ning against Lon Folger for Con­ gress in the 5tb district, didn’t win. bnt he had Lon scared within an inch of his. Iifel We are, hoping that John Wes Kurfees, Jr., Repub­ lican nominee for Congress in that district, will defeat Lon by a ma jority as large as Bob.Reynolds re­ ceived in the recent primary. Mar­ shall carried Forsyth county by a good majority, but lost in all the other 'counties. To The Voters of Da­ vie County. I want to express to each and every one of my friends my pro­ found appreciation for their loyal support in the June Primary. It will always be a sonrce of pleasure to remember your fideli y and loy­ alty and I will at all times remain true to the confidence that yon have placed in me, I want to also - commend Mayor I, F. Jordan, Wilkesooro, and his friends for the gentlemanly and fair manner in which the opposit­ ion campaign was conducted. Such spirit of friendliness and spoits manship is conducive to good zensbip. I fuither want to assure the vo­ ters of Davie county that if I am elected Solicitor, I will have in mind only one thing in the prose- cution of the criminal docket, viz: that justice may be had with equal regulariiy to all. Respectfully, AVALON E. HALL. Cltl. When it conies to garnering votes in a primary or a general election, there is no one who can keep up with our old friend Luke Tutterow. Lnke has hundreds of friends throughout the county, and for the past six years has served as chair- man of the board of county com ffiissioners. - He makes a fine com mlssioner, and is serving the county from a patriotic standpoint, as every one knows there is but little -salary attached to the office, and those who fill it receive' considerable cuss ing. " The New Deal has suffered an­ other severe blow. Jimmie Roose­ velt,■ son of Franklin, and Harry Hopkins,'bead of the Works Po­ litical Administration, sent word to Iowa that Senator Gillette, demo crat, who was Tunning for Senator in the primary in that state, wasn’t wanted any longer because he voted against )uoking the Supreme Court a pet measure of the President. Well, along came the primary last week, and Mr. Wearln, the New- Dealer, who was opposing Gillette, and who * had the indorsement of Jimmie and Harry, was beaten to a' frazzle.

Deane Thanks Friends. I find it difficult to express my deep appreciation for the fine lead­ing vote give me Saturday, Jnne4th, throughout our Eighth Congression-. al District. It makes me feel very bumble, because I know my' friends were at work. My vote of 12.923, making me the high man is indicative of a feeling on the part of the great masees of voters that profoundly toucheB me. For this leading vote I an sincerely grate ful to the men and women through­ out our District who made it possi­ble. It is indeed significant, in view of the fact that I did not have a sin­gle manager or paid worker in any of the twelve counties of the dis­ trict. I had four very honorable gentle­ men opposing me. Any one of the four would worthily represent this district in Congress. Theirfigbtfor the nomination was on a high plane, and I shall maintain tbeir friendship. I also wish to express my admira­ tion for the manner in which the primary was conducted by the elec tion officials and the fair treatment accorded each candidate. Sincerely and appreciatvely yonrs. C. B. DEANE. Thanks Voters. To the voters and citizens of Davie county. I highly appre­ ciate the loyal support that I re- ceieved in Jnne the 4th primary.

M i s t r e s s o f M o n t e r e y 0 Virginia Stivers Bartlett Virginia Stivers Bartlett mnrBurtn CHAPTER XXVn—Continued The priests at Mission Carmelo were shocked and horrified when La Gobemadora was delivered to them, no longer hysterically screaming as when she left the presidio, but cold and icy, sitting regally before the bewildered soldier on his horse. If she had been as the Governor had last seen her, good Fray Fer- min woidd have feared her less, and thrown her to the tender mercies of the matron of the monjera for disci; pline. 'But this cold haughty queen, who held her head so high and comport­ ed herself like a prisoner of state was someone to be feared. So they put her quietly into die monjera, which Junipero Serra had long ago called a dove-cote . . . and there, through the long spring days, she lived with the Indian girls, under the chaperonage of the an­ cient Dona Maria. Dona Maria took a certain grim pleasure in Watching over the proud Gobernadora, and though she did not exceed her du­ ties in regard to her, she did not neglect any discipline which she considered necessary. Eulaliawove and sewed, sang psalms and prayed, outwardly as quiet as the stupidest Indian girl. But when she lay at night on the pallet they had made for her on the floor, with a barred window high above her head, she would cram the coarse sheet into her mouth to keep from screaming. She boiled and seethed with rage, despair, outrage. Sometimes it was directed against the Governor, then it turned most bitterly against herself. “Fool! Fool!” she muttered to herself. “Silly fool, to allow this to happen to me! Ai, Dios! Madre de Dios!” There was one rule she refused to obey. And that was to attend the masses at the church. When this duty was urged upon her, she was silent, but drew her brows to­ gether dangerously. Then - the priests and the matron were glad to leave her alone. One day the Fray Presidente called for her, and Dona Maria es­corted her to his quarters. She stood uncompromisingly stiff before him, but he motioned her to a chair.“Be seated, Senora la Gobema- dora,” he murmured. Eulalia smiled at the title. In the monjera she had been simply Dona Eulalia. The father leaned back and looked at her curiously.“I have been studying you since you have been here, my daughter," he said, “and I must say that I have found your conduct most ex­emplary.” Eulalia inclined her head. He continued. “You have been docile, obedient, silent amid a disci­ pline that must have been a severe punishment to you. And I should say that you have been very brave. Now, I do not know what the pri­vate difficulties are between you and his Excellency. I have heard, of course, 'of the events that led to your being brought here. Not offi­ cially, for his Excellency did not communicate them to me. But I can not help feeling that there is some grave misunderstanding be­ tween you that caused you to . . , to do as you did.” V V> ,.Eulalia leaned toward him, her - hands gripping the arms of the chair. “Al, Padre mio,” she breathed, “if you only knew , .But the priest silenced her. “I was going to say that I. am sure the fault does not lie with you, whatever it is. For you have be­haved under this punishment only as one who supers unjustly, and is innocent of wrongdoing.”Eulalia leaned back and stared at him breathlessly.“As your spiritual- father, I tell you this. And as the spiritual fa­ ther of Ws Excellency, Don Pedro, I must speak to him as I have spoken to you.”. “Ah, no!” she cried suddenly. . Then at the surprised expression on the priest’s face, she controlled her­ self hastily.“You think, then,” she said halt­ ingly, “that perhaps Don Pedro’s conduct is ... .”“Extraordinary, to say the least” Eulalia smiled a secret smile of triumph. She rose.“Is that all, Father?” she asked meekly. .“That is all, for the present. But I am going to ask you one thing. Come to the early mass Sunday.” “Very well”’ - When, on the next- Sunday, she entered the church with the Indian women she was trembling nervous­ ly. No comfortable chair was placed for her, as when she had been there before, and she needs must stand .on the cold dirt floor, and kneel upon it, without any cusMon. With her 'head wrapped in a coarse black re­bozo, her face shone out, white and. -drawn, with the strain of her in­ carceration; Dona Mariai looked at , her^and- compressed^ her lips. I “I aim afraid for that one,” she thought to herself: "She looks ill.” ( With shaking knees and voice, Eu- lalia followed the service. Her thoughts flew back to the first time she had taken part in the services in the church .of Mission Smi Car­ los, and JunipiHO-SeRa . . ..She bent her head.'' *There at her feet; actually be­ neath her where she stood, lay his bones. - Junipero Sena, Junipero Serral She nearly screamed the words aloud. Through the wood of his rough coffin, through the dirt that covered him, his eyes seemed to stare, at her reproachfully, blazing at her from fleshless sockets . . . The strengh of pride and will that had kept her suffering nerves in leash these two long months de­serted her, and weeping hysterical­ ly, she collapsed on Junipero Ser- ra’s tomb. When the Governor reached the presidio, almost the first report he had was from Angustias who told him accusingly that La Gobema- dora, imprisoned in the monjera at Carmel, had been very ill, bat was now better. “No wonder,” snorted the old woman. "With no decent food or clothes. I went over to Carmel sev- He Lifted Her in ms Aims. eral times to brush her hair, and that old beldame, Maria, wouldn't let me!” It was his first impulse to run to her swiftly. Suddenly, more than anything in the world, he wished to hold her in his arms, to comfort her as though she were a little girl. His flower,' his Eulalia! Why, it was because she was such a spirited, fiery little thing that he had fallen' in love with her and married her. And after he had married her, he had spoiled her, and been away from her too long; was her fiery spirit broken after these two long months in the monjera to which he had sentenced her? . He sent a messenger to her to tell her to come to him as soon as she was able. . For he could not trust himself to go -to her. And Eulalia, In the austere mon­ jera, wept. Suddenly, to her, nothing seemed so desirable as to be in her hus­ band’s arms, wherever he might go, whatever he might be. chapter xxvm Waiting restlessly for Etdalia to come to him, Don Pedro rode out to his vineyard in the bright spring morning. He left his horse and walked alone among the green vines. Tenderly he looked at them, admiring their robust growth, touch­ ing a tendril here, stroking a glossy lejff there. He knelt down on the earth beside a young vine and' picked a bit of soil up in his fin­ gers,, as was his habit..Over him the sky was unusually blue' for this coastal region, and the sun was high and hot. A little in the distance he could see his orchard, some of the trees in early green, some still ' rosy ' with blos­ soms. Andwherethelandwasnot cidtivated it bloomed with wild-flow- ers.“California!” he breathed. “She has given herself to. me like a wom­ an. Give heir smiles and her tears and fruits of her body. I shall, not leave such, a fruitful mistress.” A single horse and rider came rapidly toward the vineyard. It was Eidalia. Pedro Fages rose to his feet and lookedabouthim..“The vines are young,” he mur­mured. "Next spring they will be young again. Ten springs... . . a score of springs, and they will still be young. But Eulalia . . ." He watched, • almost in fear, as she slipped lithely from her horse and came toward him, at first slowly, then as she caught, sight ‘of him when he stood upright, tin a little run, holding, up her skirts, laughing like a girl, shading her eyes with her hand. “But Eulalia is young now!” he cried,to, himself. “Ten springs, a score ofsprings . , . and then . . . NO!” Suddenty he brushed the soil of California from his fingers and sprang toward her. Dimly he no­ ticed that her feet crushed the young vines as she ran. “Pedro! My Pedro!” She sank at his feet in the dirt, laughing, weep­ ing. ‘‘Pedro, oh, my Pedro!” He lifted her in his arms, then put her on her feet, and knelt be­ fore her, swinging off his sombrero. He clasped her knees, looking up into her face. “Eulalia, my dear, my flower . . . you are beautiful, and pale. You have suffered . . .” He kissed her little shoe; and no­ ticed the pungency of the vines she had crushed. She pulled him upright to her, and took his face between her hands. “Pedro, my great bear, you are so brave, so strong . . . so cruel to me . . ..” “I am a great fool!” He groaned, straining her to him. "Eulalia, I have something to tell you. I am resigning as Governor of the Cali- fornias,. and ...” “And?;” she exclaimed, flushing suddenly, radiantly, “and we are going away from here . . . back to Mexico . . . Spain?” Over her head he looked at the hills, the sky, the distant mountains, the sea, the orchards, the beloved vineyard. Tears filled his eyes and blurred the scene. “Yes . . . away from here,” he said. CHAPTER XitIT Triumphantty Eulalia sailed on the first ship that put out from Mon­ terey, with the two children and Angustias. From the shore Pedro Fages watched the ship as far as he could see it, then turned and rode madly to the Mission Carmelo. He went into the little church, and kneeling by the tomb of Junipero SeRa talked with his old friend. It would be a year before his suc­cessor would arrive. And the time was all too short in whichto say his farewells to the land he had loved so faithfully, so he- had) hastened- first to the old missionary. He spent the year putting his af­ fairs in order, tending, with an ach­ ing heart, his trees and vines. And at the end of the year his successor came. Qn board the old San Carlos arrived his old friend Capitan Romeu, who had persuaded Etdalia so long ago to come to Cal­ifornia. A few days later the San Carlos was due to sail. On that same day the great Spanish explorer Matos- pina put the frigate Descubierto into the harbor of Monterey. Those on shore watched her launch a long­boat among the frisking (whales. lWhen the long-boat landed there was a bundle wrapped in sail cloth. “A dead sailor,” said the captain. “We wish to bury him ashore.”So he was buried. Pedro Fages and the new Governor of the Cali- foraias paused by Ids grave on their way to the beach from where Don Pedro was to be rowed to the San Carlos. They examined the slab of oakwood that bore his epitaph. “John Graham, a seaman. Born in Boston, Massachusetts . . .” “Our first American,” murmured Romeu. Pedro Fages looked east across the mountains. In his mind’s eye he saw higher ranges of mountains, deserts, prairies, rivers, more mountains and great inland lakes. And across that country, men has­ tening to the call of the siren, Cali­fornia, and her golden lure. “You are right,” he said, “our first. But hot, O Governor of all the Califomias, our last.” Then he hastened to the waiting lancha and, turning his'back reso­lutely on the land, was rowed to the waiting San Carlos. Soon the sails filled and Romeu, watching on the shore, saw the gallant old paquebot, which had borne Pedro Fages to California, slowly turn with the tide to bear him away. (THE END! Largest Indian Market in World Is in Guatemala; Traders Are GayIy Costumed The plaza of Santo Tomas Chichi- castenango, a village hidden far back in the mountains of Guate­ mala, is the scene of the largest and most elaborately costumed In­ dian market in Central America. On Thursdays and Sundays it draws as many as 5,000 traders and farm­ ers from an area of several hun­ dred square miles. Mingling here on market days are Indians from scores of villages, each dressed in a different manner. To the stranger it-is dreamlike and unreal. One has the feeling that this is the opening scene of a new opera; that presently a trumpet will blow, an orchestra will begin to play .and all these earnest people will drop their bargaining to burst forth in full-throated song! 'Back of the gay trappings and the romancing of visitors, however, the workaday life of a simple but in­ dustrious people moves on. In Icmg rows the women squat on the hard eaiffi, .their wares piled before them. Some are protected from the tropical sun by square cotton awn­ ings, but most of them sit in the open. Many plait straw for som­ breros as they wait for buyers. Hand scales measure out yellow and blue corn, native copal incense, soap, peppers, dried shrimps, beans and herbs. It is difficult for an outsider to un­ derstand the status of the Indian in a town like Chichicastenango. Un­ like the half-naked aborigines of the jungle lowlands, or the itinerant tradesmen and servants of the cities, the Indians of the highlands of Guatemala have maintained, a proud, semi-independence as farm­ ers, weavers and pottery makers. Conquered but never assimilated, they are aristocrats among the na­ tive peoples of Central America, and they are 'sufficiently well organized to make mass petitions to the cen­ tral government when local condi­ tions demand it. They have ha? much less contact with other races than Indians elsewhere have had. Consequently, they have retaine-J their self-respect and are neither subservient nor cringing. Entire Panama Canal Plan Changed by Postage Stamp Showing Crater’s Smoke Stamps have played many impor­ tant roles in the pageant of civi­lization; one stamp nearly caused a war; another saved the life of an Amnican explorer in the depths of the Liberian jungles; still a third was responsible for the discharge of a postmaster general. Even the decision to build a canal through Panama instead of Nicaragua may be attributed to a single postage stamp, asserts a writer in the New York WorldrTelegram.For years the shipping industry was hampered by the long route from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Yankee clippers and British sloops raced around the “Horn” for the prestige in the tea trade from China. During the gold rush days in the West ships rushed to Central Amer-' lea and passengers and cargo were SHit across the land by train or carriage and then on to San Fran­ cisco by another boat. Thecutting of a canal- through the isthmus seemed inevitable, even though trop-. ical diseases and fever crippled sev­eral attempts to link ocean to ocean. The rusty machinery of De Les- seps lay discarded in the swamps of Panama.- TbeBritish attempt was abandoned; and yet the world need­ ed a waterway across Central Amer­ica.. Eventually the United States ap­ propriated a fund to scrutinize the possibility of a canaL A commis­ sion mfrde surveys and submitted reports on the feasibility eg such a project. . For months, they worked, in the field, examining the features' ef sevanl proposed sites. After several months the plan cff building across Nicaragua seemed to be the logical one, and prep­ arations were begun. The plans followed the lakes and rivers al­ready in existence there, from At­ lantic to Pacific. Estimates were submitted for approval; plans had been drawn up, men were ready to go to Central America and begin work. The dramatic alteration in this project came in Washington when one of the consulting engineers of the commission received a package of charts from his survey crew in Nicaragua. The contents of the package was only routine matter, but the postage stamp affixed to it struck his attention.. The picture of Momotombo was familiar enough to this engineer and he recognized the mountain imme­ diately. His interest was aroused, however, when he saw that the en­graver of that stamp showed smoke drifting from: the crater of this peak, which had been'considered an ex­tinct volcano. A survey party was sent to the interior to learn whether the en­ graver had made a mistake. Not long afterward word was received at headquarters that the volcano was not extinct but had again come to life; that smoke was rising from the crater. Seardh for Fountain of Youlli .

Dog M an's Friend, but— No one likes to quarrel with the statement that the dog is man’s best friend. In fact, we all like to believe it without question. But neighborhood dogs that insist on staining prized ornamental ever­ greens and shrubbery certainty do put a heavy strain on friendship. Home owners have faced this problem sadly, angrily and inef­ fectually—until recently a very simple solution came to light. AU that you do is spray the lower branches of your evergreens 'and shrubs with a little nicotine sul­ phate mixed in water. It’s harm­less to plants—rharmles3 to the dogs—and brings a tremendous relief to frayed tempers. • You see,, the desired result comes because dogs do not like the nicotine sul­ phate odor and give a wide berth to any spot where that odor is found. .crocheted edgings. 4% by M inches; material requirements; il ­lustrations of all stitches used. - To obtain this pattern, send: H cents in stamps or coins-(coin* r preferred) to The Sewing Circle Household'Arts Dept., 259 W.. 14tl Street, New.

Tbe lengthening shadow of a rising public debt -presages a ruinous answer. According to Senator Bvrd of Virginia, Federal expenditures (af­ ter deduction of the soldiers’ bonus) for the fiscal year ending July I, 1938, will be $600 ,000,000 greater than - the previous fiscal year. Morever,-annual Federal, expendi­ tures have doubled and nearly trip­ led in the last decade. They are currently in . tbec neighborhood of, $800 ,000 ,ooo^farin excess of reVei ones even in boom times. . Thereis iust one way to stop this reckless plunge toward bankruptcy and that is to make it possible- for private enterprises to operate once again on a profitable basis, thus al lowing government to curtail “em- ergency" spending. Profit destroy­ ing taxes must be removed. There are nearly ten million free enterprises in this country. ,Instead of trying to “make democracy work” under insurmountable handi­ caps, it should be given a chance to work by giving these ten million private .enterprises, financed with private capital,; an opportunity, to function, thereby encouraging- in­ vestment of capHaland employment of labor. —Ex: THEBIG C A M P A I G N Is Just Getting Under Way.

North Wilkesboro, June 6 .—It's still “horse and buggy days” for Iredell P. Anderson, veteran mail carrier on Wilkesboro, route 2, who has stuck to that mode of transportation duting the 30 years he has carried the mail over prac­ tically tbe same route. Anderson will retire this fall and people along the 25 mile rouie say they will feel that something is missing when the veteran gives way to someone who in all proba bilitv will use an automobile. “I own a. car but I just can’t de­ pend on it like I can a horse,” Anderson told a reporter. His daily mail trips with horse and buggy over a period of .30 years would circle the globe 11 times. About 9,000 miles per year, is his average and this does not in. dude a two-mile trip and return between his home and the post- office. . With ,clocklike regularity he leaves the Wilkesboro postoffice each-morning at 8 o’clock, and re­ turns at ,3:30 o’clock, ■ and each patron on the route knows almost to the minute tbe time he will pass the mail box. He began carrying the mail in 1908 . Prior to that time the route was served only three days per week and J. B. Henderson, now carrier on Wilkesboro, route r.car ried the mail on horseback. .In fact, tbe road, or lack of road, was such that horse and buggy travel wasdiffiiuU, "I traded buggies about every two years,” Anderson said, “andit is bard to get a new one now. I reckon they have quit making bug­ gies, I just, buy the best second band buggies l ean find. Thisone should last until I retire. ” He will be 65 years of age when he -leaves the service in November this year. Anderson lives on a farm in the Oakwoods community. T h e G a d O f E a r th . A man, in talking about a girl marrying rich, said, "What is $25,- 000 ? Poor man! It is a mighty heavy weight to hang_ around the neck of a poor, frivolous girl, it would be a mill stone' around her neck, which pulls downwards. Mighty few people can stand wealth. Lot’s-wife is a sample of it. Divese ls anotber; and he was a member of the church. Any way, be called Abraham father. Tbe dollar is the god of this age.

The etnpty pew bas an eloquent tongue. .Tboagh its message is un» pleasant it is one that all mar hear. Tb the-visitor it is one that all may bear. To the preacher the empty pew says, '‘Your sermon is not worth while.” Tftthevisitor it whispers, "Yon see. weare not quite bolding our own.” To the treasurer it shouts "Look - out tot deficit!”. Po the stranger who is looking for a church home it suggests. "You htwl better wait a 'While.” To the members who are present it asks, "Why don’t you go visiting next Sabbath, too?” The empty pew speaks against tbe Service. It kills inspiration and smothers hope. - It dolls the - fine edge of zeal. 'The empty pew is a weight; The occupied pew is a wing “Thou .wilt be missed -because be­ cause tlwk seat- will be empty.”— (Sam . ? i N o^W itbe tim e to su b - tcrU M if^; TbeRecoird. v J The cook, hearing Miss Allison’s screams, ran to her-assistance, and tbe fire .was .extinguished - before any other damage was done. R o o s e v e lt R e c e ssio n ; Robert R. Foster. “This country, is coming back and don’t let anyone tell you dif­ ferently, because we planned it that way,” President Roosevelt told newspapermen in a White House conference in tbe summer of 1937. In the condition that this coun­ try now finds itself, one is prone to wonder which way it was planned. With 15 million now unemployed, or about five million more than in .1932 when Roosevelt was touring the country telling the people that he was the Messiah to lead them out of .the distress and financial chaos that they found ; themselves engulfed in. Everyone remembers bis famous “for three long years” phrase. Yet for six long years this country has been heading for bankruptcy. Mr. Roosevelt doesn't seem to be able to do anything but to do anything but to demaad large appropriations for relief. Maybe that his idea of a planned economy. Have you been affected by the recession? Who hasn't! Do you still receive a full pay envelope, or has its contents been reduced? Tbis recession is a direct outgrowth of the Roosevelt-Hull Reciprocal trade agreements. Wby are the mills and factories operating on reduced schedules and laying off help' For the simple reason that goods can be brought from foreign conntries here and sold cheaper than they can be manufactured in this coun­ try. , For instance: We make an agreement witb Switzerland to cut our duty on cotton doty, in return for certain concessions, which was all right. But Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Hull decided that we be good neighbors, and play Santa Claus to the rest ot the world. So they de- cided to “generalize” the cut to some seventy other nations from whom we have not received any concessions at all. And low, and behold we have really dofie Japan a big favor. Had Japan not been engaged • in bloody warfare, witb Chinafor the past eleven months our. mills would bave been operat ing still less than they have. Vet this RooseVelt administration is choking the mill owners and otbeT property owners to death to pay unemployed beuefite. That's good neighbor policy for you. r Let’s take a look at Our rail­ roads. Practically all of them are operating at a loss. Det’s take a look at the Southern. Prac.ically all of us depend upon this road in one way or\ another. For, several months it has been operating at a tremendous'loss. Supposewelook at the Charlotte division. It reacb- es from Salisbury to Atlanta. Tbis 304 mile stretch of track rnns thru tbe world’s greatest cotton consum­ ing district, averaging better than a cotton mill :to the mile. Since 80 per cent, of this railroad’s reve­ nue is derived, from freight .it is easy to understand why it has been laying off help.,and curtailing ex­ penses^ ■ Let's look at two other instances. We give our Brazilian friends a tariff reduction on their manganese and Soviet Russia, , the chief bene­ ficiary. : We lower . our tariff rate to’ Belgium on cement, and- !0 and behoid other countries from whom we received nothing at all are the chief beneficiaries. In closing I make this prediction. Don’t look-for in earlv recovery of business, for if you do, you; are doomed 40 disappointment.

"IfJ more people would engage themselves in some kind of work and quit running around hunting enter­ tainment and talking about another war things would be better off. I love to stav at home and keep busy.” Thus spoke the champion World War mother of the Udited States. Living in Stokes county just a few miles over the line from the town of Pilot Mountain in Surry county Mrs. Wilson has sought the simple life, gone about her tasks day after day, and then taken time enough to Pilot Mountain each Saturday “to see some people and buy some things" for the past 15 years. YeB, Mrs. Wilson is the champion World War mother, of the nation and thereby hangs an interesting tale. She seldom speaks of it. Kven her nation-wide distinction has not changed her desire for the simple life on a 'tobacco farm with her family. It was back in 1923 that 'Mrs. Wil- son received this honor. The state newspapers were co-operating witb the North Carolina World War Mothers Association in a search for tbe mother in a search for the mother in tbe state who bad offered the most sons for servicc during the recent war. Varous pipers w ere makinp claims that- mothers in their own sections might be given the honor upon records of from four to seven sons w|ien Banker I. M. Gordon, of Pilot Mountain, heard of a mother in Stokes county that had. offered nine sons for military service. Gordon became interested in the conteBt and took the matter of Mrs. Wilson’s nine sons up with the Char- lotte, chapter of the War Motners, Newspapers made comment that it was hard to believe. It was thrash* ed out carefully before Mrs: Wilson •vas finally named the official North Carolina war mother. “After Mr. Gordon got me elect* ec|,” Mrs. Wilson said, “I received *n invitation to represent the state at the national convention of the War Mothers.” She stepped over to a table and took a faded letter from an old book. “As you have perhaps heard’ it read, “we have decided that you are the North Carolina mother who sent the most sons to the war. You are therefore invited to be an honor guest at the Kansas City conven* tion on September 29-October 5. in­ clusive, with all expenses paid ***•” It was signed hy the Kansas City chapter. * ( went to Kansas City after the kind invitation and I guess that’s tbe longest trip I have ever taken,” she said. Tne record of having nine sons covered by the’d raft was the. best in the United' States, so Mrs. Wilson was named tbe- “Champion War Mpther” at the close, of the conven; tion. After being offered 8 trip to France she did not eecept, “be­ cause,” she said, ' things had to be taken care of at home. I'd been a- way long enough.” All nine sons are living today. They are. in order of their ages be­ ginning'with the oldest; Peter H. Wilson and G Robert Wilson were not called into service; Charlie. F. .Wilson*, Jack T, Wilson, Floyd H. Wilson and Raleigh C.

Congressman Sol Blo m, Tam­ many Democrat from New--York is one man that does not deny there is a Roosevelt depression on in this country and has starned a one-man campaign to "sell’' the country out of the depression. Bloom predicted Thursday that if merchants and manufacturers co operated. $5000.000,000 in merchan­ dise now lying on shelves and in warehouses would move into the hands of customers, factory wheels long idle would begin turning and thonsands of unemployed would be out back to work. The idea, Bloom said, was verj simple. Merchants with surplm stocks are urged .to offer them for sale at prices reduced so as to offet an inducement to tbe public to buy “Manufacturers are asked to co­ operate by reducing; tbeir prices tr retailers.” ' Tbe “sell now” campaign, %e ex plained, was simply a reversal of tb< “buy. now” campaign papular a few years ago. , . , ‘I have always felt,” he said, tha> the psychology of the ’buy now* campaign was ail wrong. You can’t expect the public to buy just to be patriotic if the merchant is going 10 make bis regular profit. 'The sell now campaign reverses that idea by offering tbe customer real financial savings as an induce rnent to buy. It’s a wonderful idea.” Bloom said he had copyrighted the idea “just as a protection” bui did not plan to'charge for ita “legi­ timate” use. “I just want to make sure that it isn’t used to promote fire sales, bar* gain sales and such events,” be said. Full page advertisements in Wash­ ington newspapers annonounced in* auguration of the campaign has the indorsement of Secretary of com­ merce Roper “and other govern­ ment officials,” Bloom said.

THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. W a s h i n g t o n D i g e s t g National Topics Interpreted By WILLIAM BRUCKART & Washington.—New Deal political efforts have now reached an ap> parent nationwide Demoerata scope in the strat- zn Party Row eSlr tor control of the Democratic party machinery. It is no longer a secret—if it ever were concealed— that the White House board of strat­egy is determined to lick Demo­ cratic representatives and senators who have failed to respond to New Deal orders. This has happened de­ spite President Roosevelt’s repeat­ed declarations that he is keeping hands off of all party primaries. The only exceptions to the above in­ formation are in states where in­ cumbent Democrats are so solidly intrenched that there is no chance to defeat them for renomination.The latest of numerous New Deal entries in primary races is in Mary­ land. David J. Lewis, a representa­ tive for many years, who is account­ ed a full-fledged New Dealer in all respects, has entered the race for the senatorial nomination against Sen. Millard Tydings, who has been off of the New Deal reservation many times. Mr. Lewis is to be regarded as formidable opposition. He announced his candidacy after a visit to the White House, and there was none who failed to under­stand that he had the presidential blessings. It had-been known since the court reorganization fight that New Deal leaders were looking for someone to do battle against Sena­tor Tydings. ' The Lewis candidacy virtually completes the list. Therewillbeno New ‘ Deal candidate against Sen. Bennett Clark in Missouri. The rea­ son is that Senator Clark, despite his frequent attacks on the New Deal program, can not be defeated for the Democratic nomination. Much the same is true about Sena­tor Lonergan of Connecticut. The New Deal board of strategy has no love for the Connecticut senator, but he is rather firmly entrenched in his state. So it seems the way to express the situation is that the New Deal strategists do not hate him quite enough to run a candidate against him. In Colorado, Senator Adams has opposition from an avowed New Dealer. Senator Adams has never been quite so outspoken as men like Clark, or Burke of Nebraska, or Wheeler of Montana, but he has been “suspected” of being none too friendly to the New Deal as a whole. The board of strategy, therefore, is taking no chances. Senator Adams’ opponent is Jus­tice B. C. Hilliard. A few hundred miles to the westward, a son of Justice Hilliard is seeking the Dem­ocratic nomination for the senate in Nevada. He is after the scalp of Sen. Pat McCarran, who has jumped off of the New Deal band­ wagon when he disagreed with pres­idential programs. So it has been decreed that he, too, must go. The Iowa battle is now over. In that fight, Harry Hopkins, profes­sional reliever of destitution, sought to aid Representative Wearin re­lieve Sen. Guy Gillette of the Dem­ ocratic nomination for the senate. The Hopkins outburst, given to newspaper correspondents here be­ fore the Iowa primary was: “If I were a voter in Iowa, I would sup­ port Otho Wearin against Gillette.” That raised plenty of hot winds in the senate and, since it came on top of the Peimsylvania • primaries and on top of Son Jimmy Roose­velt’s endorsement of Senator Pep­ per in Florida, it gave a tip-off .as to how far the thing was going. It was perhaps the Iowa meddling by Professor Hopkins that caused President Roosevelt to tell a press conference that he was taking no part at all in the state primaries. Prior to that time, however, he had quietly given his blessing to Senator McAdoo, over his several opponents in California; Senator Barkley, over “Happy" Chandler in Kentucky, and it is understood he has shown a pref­erence for Senator Bulkley of Ohio, who is opposed for the Democratic nomination by former Gov. George White.* * » As is shown by the records, things are not all milk and honey « a 1» u*vL ^ the 100 per Not AU Mtlk centers who are and Honey seeking renomina­tion. Mention was made of BuDdey in Ohio, and Bark­ley in Kentucky. Sen. Elmer Thom­ as of Oklahoma, the great advocate of cheap money and the man who forced congress to enact legislation allowing for printing of three bil­ lion dollars in new silver certifi­ cates, has opposition that promises a bitter fight to the end. The same is true of Senator Thomas of Utah, who is confronted with a campaign of a defensive character. He must show why he is so strong for the New Deal to win renomination in . that state from which also comes Senator King. Senator King has been a violent opponent of the New Deal. ■ Then, there is another 100 per center in the far West. Sen. James P. Pope has to fight off the attack of Worth Clark for the senatorial nomination. Mr. Clark, now a mem­ber of the house of representatives, is said here to be making a battle of it. for Senator Pope whose chief claim to fame seems to be Uiat he fathered the agricultural act of 1938 —and nobody knows yet how to make the law work. Clark’s record is regarded by many colleagues in the house as proving him to be a Democrat of the liberal type, for he has supported the President on numerous occasions while voting against White House dictation when he felt that he should do so,The New Dealers have persuaded Governor Johnston of South Caro­ lina to run against Sen. “Cotton Ed” Smith. At least, it is the as­ sumption that the governor was per­ suaded to enter the race. There is a fight on in another southern state also. Sen. Walter F. George has opposition for the Demo­cratic nomination. Lawrence Camp, United States attorney at Atlanta and a Roosevelt appointee, has filed for the nomination against Senator George. The understanding in Wash­ ington is that the New Dealers set­ tled on Camp when they found that Governor Rivers of Georgia could not enter the fight because he was vulnerable on several points. Sena­ tor George, one of the ablest con­stitutional lawyers in the senate and long highly regarded in that body, apparently has a hard fight because of the likelihood of~a divided vote. There are several other candidates in the field and it has been sug­ gested that the vote may be so divided as to bring about defeat of Senator George. Months ago, of course, Sen. Fred Van Nuys was marked for “liquida­ tion” in Indiana because of his ac­tivity against the President's court bill. The state machine in Indiana is completely under the domination of former Gov. Paul McNutt, who aspires to the White House, himself, in 1940, and McNutt is sticking with the New Dealers. But to turn to another phase of the interparty fight, the question of use of relief funds in politics has become hotter than a pan of boiling grease. Judge Brady Stewart, man­ ager for Chandler in Kentucky,- late­ly wrote a letter of protest to Presi­ dent Roosevelt, charging among other things that relief was being handed out only to persons “ap­ proved” by the Barkley faction of the party. From Pennsylvania there have been many squeals about po­ litical use of relief funds by Senator Guffey, and in neither case has there been proof that the charges are not true. Undoubtedly, if the WPA workers are being used politi­cally in some places, they are being used in many places; it is a condi­ tion that must be expected if the country is going to turn relief of destitution over to. politicians. They will fill their gullet first.* • * The death of an individual whom one does not know, however impor- _ . tant the individualrasnng may be, creates of Warren only passing inter­est. Perhaps that is why so Uttle attention was paid to the death, a few weeks ago, of Dr. George F. Warren. Professor Warren was nationally known as a Cornell authority on the economics of agriculture; he was known, too, for his famed experiment in caus­ ing hens to lay more eggs by keep­ ing them in electricaUy Ughted hen houses at night. But Professor War­ren wiU go down in history for a much more important reason than either of these. It was he who convinced President Roosevelt that prices could be continued by the federal government by means of changing the gold content of the doUar. Our currency structure had re­mained much the same for 50 years until Professor Warren became an advisor, a consultant, for the New Deal. There had been many at­tempts, much fanfare, many blow­ ings of trumpets, about “tight mon­ ey” or “WaU Street control” of money, or various other-ideas such as the free sfiver of Bryan days and the equaUy siUy scheme of Senator Thomas of Oklahoma, who wanted to print three bilUon dollars in new paper money to bring the country out of the depression. The native intelUgence and soUdarity of the country, however, brought us safely through those periods until Profes­sor Warren came on the scene.One need not review how the Thomas scheme for printing money was forced, through congress nor how the Warren plan for control of prices was propagandized-, until members of the senate and the house, knowing nothing about eco­ nomic subjects, swaUowed the pro­posal. The gold content of the dol­ lar was lowered—the dollar was de­valued, and the government kept the profit, amounting to more than two billion dollars. The important thing to remember is that a great government made such a costly experiment on its 130,- 000,000 citizens, and failed. For it must be said that the Warrefi scheme for raising prices has faffed.S Western Niwspaper Union. 3 PP■Jk. ^ i WHO'S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F.

The Greeks could not weave Dn- en or wool on anything like the scale we weave them today. But they wove them into the pilema, a form of cuirass which could not be penetrated by the sharpest' dart or arrow. The secret has been lost—perhaps forever. The Romans sank wells for wa­ter to great depths. Exactly how they did the boring we do not know. They also made glass which would bend yet not break. This would be quite useful today. The beautiful purple dye, known of old, has eluded the dye-makers of today. And modern builders can make nothing of the strong and durable cement used by the Greeks and the Romans in their walls. - This cement was. stronger and harder than the stone itself. The knowledge possessedby the ancient Egyptians was very ex­tensive. They had a method of dressing stone to withstand. the ravages iff time and weather. They also perfected the art of embalm­ing. Probes, forceps, and other surgical instruments have been found in Egypt. . For what pur­pose they were' used we wffl nev­ er know. That secret, along with many others, passed away with the de­ struction of the famous Dbrary at. Alexandria in the Fifth century. The loss of the knowledge con­ tained in that Dbrary was a blow to civffization..

HOUSTON GOUDISS 6 S ast 39ttt Street, New York City* T HERE was a time when overweight was indulgently tol­ erated and even respected. It was believed that width and wisdom went together and that fat people had the best dispositions. Surplus poundage was regarded as an indica­ tion of wealth for it implied that one had plenty to eat and £ did not have to work, - The modern point of view, backed by medical science, is that overweight destroys beauty, multiplies the chances of disease and subtracts years from your life. Most of the degenerative dis­eases of middle life occur more frequently in those who are overweight than in those whose weight is normal. The entire body functions at a dis­advantage for the excess fat is pres­ ent inside as well as outside of the body. .Jnst as the abdomen, hips and arms are burdened with excess fat, so are the internal organs stifled with needless tissue.—★— Overweight Burdens the Heart Fatty deposits increase the work of the heart, because each extra pound demands the pumping of additional blood. It has been esti­ mated that every pound of fat re­quires six-tenths of a mile of blood vessels to nourish it! Thus, the in­ dividual who is 20 pounds over­ weight is carrying around 12 miles of excess blood vessels. Natural­ ly, the heart must work faster and harder to pump blood through these extra miles, and it is not surprising that it is frequently overstrained. Heart disease and high blood pressure are often associated with excess fat. So are diabetes and kidney disease. And when fat creeps around the abdominal mus­cles, it may interfere with normal elimination. Life May Be Shortened Furthermore, life insurance companies estimate that the more overweight the body becomes, the slighter the chances for longevity. AU the data that have been as­ sembled indicate that as age and weight increase, the death rate rapidly accelerates. Gross over­ weight may shorten life by as much as ten years. —i t — What Should You Weigh?It is generally held that under the age of thirty, it is advisable-to weigh from five to ten pounds more than the average for one’s, height and age. But after thirty, a weight of ten to twenty pounds below the average is desirable. In fact, leading, authorities now agree that it is Wi excellent plan to endeavor alter thirty to main­tain the normal weight for one’s height at age. thirty.• —.

Many people are puzzled by the word “calorie,” which is a term of measurement used -to measure both the fuel value of foods and the body’s en­ergy needs. - For- example; a tablespoon of sugar furnishes 50 calories; a ta­ blespoon of butter, 100 calories; one-fourth of a large head of let­ tuce only I? calories. ' ._ The energy requirement for a normal adult man engaged in a sedentary occupation is from 2,200 to 2,800 calories daily; work done standing or walking requires up ■to 3^00.-calories daily. A woman requires from 2,000 to 2,500 cal­ories daily, depending upon her activities. By becoming familiar with the caloric value of foods, it is possi­ble to construct a well-balanced diet, and at the same time to cut down on fuel values so that you consume less energy foods each day than the body requires. Tbis will force the body to burn some of its own fat for fuel and result in a safe, scientific gradual weight reduction.' I shall gladly send readers ot this column a chart showing the caloric value of all the commonly used foods. . You will find that by eating 500 calories less each day than the body expends, you can reduce your weight a pound a week. And with the chart, before you, you can cut out. 500 Calories without even missing them. —★— ■- Sample Bedudng Menus . In planning. a reducing pro­ gram,- it is essential to include in each day’s diet adequate amounts of the protective foods. To help you plan a balanced diet, a week’s sample menus have been included in my Reducing Bulletin. By keeping your weight down, you may have at least ten years longer in which to e^joy life. In becoming master of your fat, you will truly-become master- of your fate.. e WNU-C. Beuston Ooudlsf—IMSr-IS . IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY ICHOOL Lesson By REV.

Easter again? No, the calendar does not say so, nor have we for­gotten that we observed Easter ten weeks ago, but quite properly we study the resurrection story again today. Not only does it come in the sequence of our lessons as our final study in the Gospel of Mark, but the fact is that every Sunday is a re­minder of Easter. The reason why we worship on the first day of the week is that it is the resurrection day. What life it would, put into our Sunday worship if the glory of the risen Lord would' shine forth (as it should) each Lord’s Day in all of our service and worship. It is difficult to think or write about the living Christ without us­ ing superlatives. Our lesson for to­ day brings before us the most im­ portant truth that the world has ever heard—“He is risen” ; it speaks of the worst thing in the world—“unbelief”; and it presents the world’s greatest commission— “Go . . . and preach.” I. The Transcendent Truth Cw. 1-8).“Ye seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who hath- been crucified; He is ris­ en, He is not here” (v."6 ).The world anxiously awaits news, and, hoping almost against hope, it longs for good news. This is the good news—the Gospel—the all-im­ portant tidings that the Son of God who had taken upon Himself not only the form of man, but the sins of mankind as well, who had tasted the bitter death of Calvary’s cross, could not be holden of death, but breaking its bands asunder had ris­en from the dead. This truth becomes the chief bur­ den of the messages of the disciples as they soon went everywhere pro­ claiming the Gospel. See the ser­ mons recorded in the Book of Acts (2:24, 32; 3:14, 15; 4:10, 23; 10:40; 13:30). Itwas suchpreachingthat was at the foundation of the Chris­tian church. It may be that we should emphasize it more: . II. The Impassable Barrier (v. 14). “He upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, be- bau$e they believed not.” Many are the sins that men commit, but at the root of them all we find the heart of. all sin—unbelief.The tragic consequence of unbe­ lief is that it shuts the door, throws up a barrier to God’s blessing that is virtually impassable until God himself gives grace to believe. The astonishing thing is that the hard­ness of heart and lack of faith here were on the part of those who had been the disciples of Jesus, to whom He had made known the fact that He was to die and to arise on the third day, and to -whom there had now come the word of eye-witnesses that they had seen the Lord.While we marvel at their short­ sighted unbelief, shall we not ask ourselves Tidiat hindrances we have placed in God’s way in our own lives? m . The - Supreme Commission (w. 15, 16, 19, 20). “Go ye into , all the world and' preach'the .gospel to the whole cre­ation” (v. 15). “And they went . . . and preached, “the tbrd work­ ing with them.and confirming the word” (v. 20). The great commission of Christ is still the “marching orders of the church,” but how slowty^e^have marched. ThewriterdftbesenoteS was recently startled by statistics revealing anew the fact that “Chris­ tian” America is rapidly returning to the status of a mission field.. It is said that last year 60,000 churches in America had no converts, and 9,000 churches were, closed during the year. There are 10,000 villages reported to be without church serv­ices, and 30,000 communities with­out a resident pastor. The command of Christ is that we should go to these pagan communi­ties in our own land with the gos­ pel, and surely it is our double shame that there are still lands where Christ has. never been preached, yes, tribes that do not even have a word in their language for the blessed name—Jesus! If we will go He will indeed work with us (V. 20) and accompany the message and ministry with divine authority and power. Who will go? Select Good Company When a man lingers in the neigh­ borhood of sinners he may expect to be tempted. Our company has not a little to do with .our conduct. Try Again . "The diligent searcher after truth will not be deterred by many dis­appointments. His: hope may fail, but he will try again. ’ . .. Key to Success . ■ .

EtITHER crochet cotton or wool yam in two or more colors may be used for a knitting bag or purses of woven fillet crochet. The foundation is made in the lightest color. The knitting bag in the sketch is white fillet with navy blue threads woven through, as shown. The zipper purse and van­ ity pouch are ecru with carmine and Delft blue woven stripes. The plain spaces between the stripes are made by weaving through the fillet mesh with matching thread. To start the fillet foundation, make a chain the length of your bag, then chain 5 more, turn, and make a double crochet in the 6 th stitch from the hook. Chain 2, skip 2 and make1 a double crochet in next stitch. Repeat to end of row, then chain 5 and turn. ‘Make a double crochet in the top of the last double crochet. Chain 2. Con­tinue across the row, then chain 5 and turn. Repeat from * until you have enough of the fillet mesh to make your bag or purse. The weaving is done with double thread and a large blunt needle: T h at's L uck -Luck doesn’t float around the air And light on Tom or Dick or HarryJust anyhow and anywhere. The wit to know the thing you want, The will to work, the faith to fight, The strength to use but tem­ pered toolsAnd only weapon honors bright; The spirit and the spunk to dare, The heart to hope, the grit to bear;And when disaster falls, the grit to grin, and start again— That's luck. Work across and then back through each row of the fillet mesh as shown; When a new weaving thread is started, hide the ends in the edge of the crochet.

It isn’t always enough to do “lots of can­ ning.” You may have 500 full jars in your cellar at the end of the sea­ son, but if 100 of these leak be­cause of cheap or old rubber rings, you are only getting an 80 per cent return on your labor. One of the greatest mistakes the housewife canner can make, I have found, is to yield to the mis­ taken derk who substitutes 4tUn* known brands” for advertised brands produced *by reputable manufacturers. Substitution may be all right at times, when an item can be used up in a short time. But when it comes to jar rings—play safe—buy a recognized brand. There is a lot of difference in jar rings. The rubber used in them is compounded, or mixed, in much the same way that the batter for a cake is mixed, and, like cake batter, unless the recipe is tested and the ingredients of the best, the results will be dis­ appointing. Inferior jar rings will “check” or crack and allow air to seep into the jars. C. Houston Goudiss, who writes' our “WHAT TO EAT AND WHY” series; reports that the Cake Rec­ ipe Contest which he recently con* ducted through the columns, of this newspaper was a gratifying sue- A tremendous number of reci­ pes were submitted and the home economists on. the staff of his Ex. perimental Kitchen. Laboratory in New York city have been busy for days testirfg and tasting almost every imaginable kind of cake. They report that our town , has some very fine cake bakers! They regret that it was impossi­ ble to acknowledge individual en­ tries, but they thank every home­maker who entered the contest, and have asked us to say that each recipe will be given the most careful consideration. Because of the volume of reci­ pes submitted, they will require <t Uttle while longer to complete their tests and to arrive at their decision as to the winners.. Prize winners will be reported in these columns in the near ft* ture, and as announced at the be* ginning of the contest, prize, win* ning recipes, together with those receiving honorable mention from the judges, will be printed in a booldet to be distributed nation­ ally.' jsSSft* Jtffc * ) u ?

We don't know how many votes a billion dollars would buy, but we do know that some have been pur chased at bargain prices. The farmer is the man that feeds us all, but with Secretary Wallace forbidding him to plant much, he is having a hard time doing so. As Will Rogers once said, the best thing for the political orator to do during a campaign, is “to point with pride and view with alarm.’ It seems that the High Point democrats don't mind stealing from .each other. We don’t care how much they steal from each other, just so they don't steal Republican votes in November. We notice that three ot the boys lost their jobs for irregularities in the June primary. One of the best speeches we have heard this year was delivered one night recently over the radio by Senator Burton K. Wheeler, Mon­ tana democrat. Senator Wheeler declared that the WPA was loaded with partisan politics—that it was a big political machine, but should be taken out of politics. The Senator is right. Only one more week until we will be in the midst of the black berry season. Up to this time we are still short the cash it takes to purchase the sugar and crusts. Here’s hoping those who are due us on subscription—and their name is legion—will call or send us a little cash at the earliest possible moment. Don’t put this important matter off. So far as we have been able to learn, not a single countv that has legalized the sale of liquor in North Carolina and opened liquor stores, have cut their tax rate a single penny. We have never been able to fool .ourselves into believing that one could drink themselves into prosperity, or lower the tax rate by making drunkards out of the tax­ payers in any county. G e o rg e S m ith M e m b e r O f S e a rc h in g P a r ty . Mr. and Mrsi Geo. W. Smith and children, of Homestead, Fla., have moved to their farm at Red land, where they will spend the summer. Mr. Smith owns and operates a tru.k fram at Home­ stead, where be grows fine toma. toes, celery, etc. Mr. Smith tells us that he spent three days helping to search for the body ot Jimmy Cash, five-year old son of Mt. and Mrs. J. B. Cash, of Princeton, Fla., who was kidnaped and killed by’Franklin McCall, on the night of May 28th. The cash family lived only a short distance from Homestead. Mr Smith was acquainted with Mr. Cash, and his little son knew the little kid­ napped boy, having been in Sun­ day school with him. McCall was given a trial last week, and on Thursday was sent­ enced to be electrocuted for the kidnapping of the little boy. He confessed that he was guilty, but claimed that the child Was acrid ently smothered to death. S o ld ie rs P e n s io n C h e c k s Clerk of the Court Hartman re­ ceived the soldiers and widows checks last week, and they were ready for delivery !Wednesday. There was but one check for a Con. federate soldier, that being P. A. Miller, formerly of Davie, but now of Iredell county. He. served in Co., E., 1st Bat. Jr. Reserves. There are no Confederate veterans living in Davie. Mr. Miller’s check was for $182.50. Checks for 12 class A widows, drawning $150 each, and checks for.seven class B widows drawing $50 each, were re­ ceived. Following are the names of all those who received pension checks: Mary F.

The 20 checks total £2,332.50, which is a Godsend to some of the aged widows who receive these checks.

CHAPTER I —I— One chattering brazen clash.Old White always set about its Sabbath morning summons with a discord. Until the hempen bell rope, writhing through various floor open­ings, furnished impetus needed for the stately cadence of mellow boom- ings that followed. Today there appeared to be an unusual outpouring of Locust Hill’s faithful bent upon worshiping within the austere walls of Old White church. Before the bell finished its reminder, a growing stream of ar­ rivals was converging on the front ef the edifice. Singly and in groups they made their way up the foot­ worn treads serving the two en­ trance doors. The atmosphere held a noticeable air of expectancy. It was reflected hi the vigilance of ushers prowling along the carpeted aisles and dart­ ing harried glances into the black walnut pews. Ushering at Old White was a function demanding nice per­ception. Particularly if there chanced to be a liberal sprinkling of strangers, as on this October afternoon. Conspicuous among their number was a personable young man who arrived early and appropriated a choice seat on the center aisle, where he remained apparently in­ sensible to the polite censure of the pshers’ regard. The youth’s roving blue eyes, their whites showing rather oddly against the deep tan of his face, -scanned the growing congregation with unflagging interest. The. alert­ness of the eyes was in decided con­ trast to the well-knit figure relaxed comfortably in the pew comer. To the loose-fitting gray tweeds and carelessly knotted scarf of blue silk. And to the wavy hair, a warm chestnut brown. Only once did the young man stir from his languid pose. That was when a trio of elderly women, all in Uadc silk, hesitated reprovingly at the entrance to the pew. Then he scrambled to his feet in apologetic haste and stepped into Uie aisle. “I hope I’m not intruding,” was his low-voiced suggestion. Two of the newcomers passed him without a word or glance. But the third lingered for a swift ap­ praisal. Something she encountered In the frank smile brought a touch «f color to her faded cheek. “You are welcome, I’m sure,” die murmured politely, hurrying after her companions. A last muffled stroke from the eld bell overhead died with a lin­ gering note. Quiet strains stealing from the bronzed pipes of the organ.Sunlight filtering through the stained glass of narrow windows, dropping multi-colored mosaics here and there on the heads, of waiting worshipers. One vagrant shaft dallied with the crimson hat worn by a small woman who sat directly in front of the blue-eyed--stranger. The small woman straightened her thin shoul­ders^ in an annoyed fashion. The gesture, however, was not directed at the prying sunshine. Another woman, exceedingly stout, was dis- ,.jdaying an . intention of sharing the pew with the red hat. Its wearer looked up as she of­ fered, a subdued but audible: “Good morning, Hannah. You can sit in fcere.with me.” . The new arrival worked past the relentless knees of her hostess and sank heavily to the wine-colored cushions. There was an unobstruct­ ed view of the rostrum along the center'aisle and the woman under the red hat had no intention of re­linquishing her advantage. Ad amused glint in the eyes of the 'ybuhg man indicated his appre­ ciation-of the little maneuver. Swaying slightly in the direction Cf the stout Hannah, the smaller woman remarked in a whisper that carried clearly: "So you thought you’d come out and see our hew preacher.” Hannah admitted the charge with a nod that, added interestingly to her assortment of chins. “Don’t worry,” camfe her neigh­ bor’s assurance. “Plenty of your members tagged along.” "His name’s FarweU, isn’t it, Ab- bie?” Hannah parried the thrust. . “Yes. Doctor Jonathan Farwefl.” This direct bid forinformation ex­ercised its placating effect.' “My brother Tom was on the commit­ tee, you know. He says we’ll like him. He heard him preach twice. He comes from out West. . . Some place' in I-o-wa.” Abbie favored that state’s second syllable with an im­ pressive accent.■, “Is his wife here, Abbie?”“He hasn’t any. Widower. Mrs. Farwell’s been dead for quite some time, I heard. He’s never married —so far.”“Any children?” '“One boy. He must be grown up. Hale’s his I first name. Sounds too fancy for a man. I don’t know where he is. Not in the minister’s pew, ,anyway.” , , Had- Abbie Brown carried her in- - ftiistigatiqnstertoer, a pair of twin-- Afiiig bhie ieyes directly behind her IfCidd - .have-furnished the desired information. Instead, she gave Han­ nah a quick nudge with her elbow.“There he comes!”Like the dropping of a stone in a placid pool,- the opening of a door at the right of the altar sent an attentive flutter rippling over the congregation. A tall black figure made its appearance. Jonaffian FarweU, the new minister of Old White church. Bi a single instant he was made the target for a host of inquisitive eyes. These saw above the pulpit a white rugged face, its pallor height­ ened by coppery red hair brushed straight off the lofty forehead. Pene­trating black eyes, seemingly obliv- gether, Dale appeared in his te­ther’s study ready for church serv­ ice. “I’m going early,” he announced." “I want to size up the crowd be­ fore you give them their big mo­ment.” Despite his pride and an impetu­ous faith in his tether, Dale bad approached the day with some mis­ givings. The preceding pastor had served Old White for something over forty years. That sort of thing sounded very much like the East, was Dale’s rather patronizing de­ cision. Doctor Bailey must have been pretty tolerant mid easy-going to last so long. Young FarweU was He might have been engaged in' prayer. ious to the sea of staring faces be­ low and fixed steadily upon a clock hanging against the rear gallery panels. A generous mouth flanked by deeply etched lines running to the nostrils. There was a distinct cleft in the center of the square chin. While observers were still en­grossed with first estimates, they were caught and held by the sound of a voice announcing the opening hymn. A vibrant voice, very nearly harsh in its penetrating quality. As the familiar strains of the hymn sounded from the organ loft, the minister turned abruptly and seated himself in the center one of three tall chairs that stood with their ,backs stiffly to the choir. His chin . dropped against his breast, strands of the red hair-falling for­ ward and covering the long white fingers .that shaded his eyes. He might have been engaged in prayer or meditation. Nor' did he stir when the congre­ gation rose to its feet to join in the summons to praise. The younger FarweU had reached Locust HiU late Saturday, making a hurried cross-country trip in or­ der to be present when his tether appeared for the first time in his new pulpit. Becentiy graduated from a mid-west university, Dale had spent the summer in camp as­ sisting with the direction of a geo­ logical survey. The field work fin­ished, he returned to school for sev­ eral weeks of compiling reports and arranging specimens for' the depart­ ment’s museum. Doctor FarweU’s household goods were delivered by a moving van but a short time .before Dale put in his own appearance and both men worked until a late hour settling the parsonage for a housekeeping program of sorts. Soon after their first breakfast to- aware that his parent had the name of being “different.” Disguised by a seemingly cold personality, the clergyman from the the West possessed a dynamic force­ fulness. To an unswerving direct­ ness of address and a scorn of mincing words, he added the readi­ ness to declare himself upon popu­lar issues whenever he deemed such a course appropriate. Unrighteous­ ness in every form drew the wither­ing fire of his denunciation. Dale’s brief sight of their,new home town convinced him that the place was reserved, set in its ways. It was more than possible that these people would resent a progressive minister even if the causes he championed were just.Jonathan Farwell’s coming to Lo­ cust Hill was the result of a coinci­ dence. It began with an invitation to deliver the baccalaureate sermon at the university where his son was receiving a degree. After the services, Doctor Far- well found himself accosted by a tall smooth-shaven man with keen eyes peering through silver-rimmed glasses set astride his thin nose and tethered to a black ribbon.- The eyes, thinning hair and immacu­late clothing combined to produce a cool grayness. “I «am Cassius Brady of Lo­ cust Hill, New Jersey,” the new­comer announced crisply. “And this is my daughter Lenora.” He indi­cated a slender dark-eyed girl standing at his side. “I was greatly impressed by your sermon, Doctor FarweU. Very much so. In short,” he added bluntly, “it set me won­ dering if you would consider a call from our church.”“This is a trifle sudden, Mt. Bra­ dy,” Farwell returned with a slight smile."I suppose it is:- I dropped off here yesterday on my way from the coast to meet my daughter and take her home. I am glad I did. Now, I want very much to have a talk with you.” . <This brief encounter was followed by an invitation to dinner at Brady’s hotel and a meeting between Dale FarweU and Lenora Brady.If the lawyer was impressed by the minister, the latter’s son was attracted to the lawyer’s daughter to a degree that rendered him al­most incoherent during their intro­ duction. He scarcely removed his eyes from her face wlfen he found himself sitting opposite her at din­ ner.She was the prettiest girl he had seen in a long time. Not exactly pretty, either . . . Something bet­ ter than that. He particularly liked the way those bronze curls framed her piquant face, that vivacious turn ot the head when she was interest­ ed. Most of aU, it . was her eyes that held him. They were different from any Dale remembered seeing. The iris appeared to be a red-brown, flecked with dark spots.(TO BE CONTINUEQ) Resemblance to Habitat Aids Safety of Animals, Birds, Reptiles, Insects Protective resemblance is the name generally used for those cases where an animal resembles an in­ animate object and, by virtue of this, becomes more or less incon­ spicuous. Although closely allied, it is distinct from mimicry, in which an entirely different end is achieved and, of course, is a de­cided step ahead of the commoner protective coloration. Protective coloration can be seen everywhere, from the white winter fox of the Arctic regions to the brown hares of the plains and it was probably an early step in the evolu­tion of the wild creatures we know today, writes H. H. Pittman in Na­ture Magazine. Most mammals benefit by it, with the exception of a few that have developed other de­ fenses that time and trial have proved effective. Protective resem­ blance, however, goes further and often it is the only defense of non- aggressive creatures. Some of the best examples of pro­ tective resemblance occur among insects and what may be called the classical! illustration is afforded by the leaf-butterfljes of northern India and the Malayan region. So many of the most outstanding instances of protective resemblance are illustrated by tropical specimens that' the casual observer is inclined to regard the phenomenon as an oc­ currence peculiar only to tropics. The most perfect instance'of pro­tective resemblance I know of in Saskatchewan is’’ provided by the moth Lithomoia solidaginis. It is an insect of weathered or neutral colors that would harmonize with almost any natural object or surface upon which it might alight. In a collection it is uninteresting and haidly worth noticing. During life, however, this moth is more interesting; for in its normal resting position it so closely resem­bles tee stub of a broken branch that even an experienced entomolo­ gist might pass, hundreds without suspecting their presence. In; re­ pose, the rather long narrow wings are closely wrapped around the body, and a little depression in a stick, such as that left when a branch is broken off, often is chosen as a resting place. In such a spot the moth places its head and then, with its back to the ground, holds its body out from the support at an angle of approximately 30 degrees, with the normal angle at whicb many branches leave the main stem.

The 193s General Assembly pass­ ed a measure requiring the vaccina­ tion of all dogs, during the 90 -day period following April 1. That period has almost expired yet it is estimated that less than three per cent.of the dogs in the Stite have been vaccinated this year. The act provides for one rabies inspector in each township in the State—1,028 of these—to be ap­ pointed to vaccinate all dogs at 50 cents per vaccination. The county health officer or the county com­ missioners are authorized to appoint these inspectors, with the Depart, ment of Agriculture commissioned to supervise and direct them. Fail ure to have dogs vaccinated calls for a fine of not less tban $ 1 0 nor more than $50. Just another of those laws to which no attention is paid. It is entirely overlooked until some child is bitten and the familv put to the expense of taking treatment, and even that soon blows over. The law is not observed because it costs four bits and it is not en­ forced because it is unpopular. It must be admitted, too, that there is reason for its unpopularity. How many of those required 1,028 rabies inspectors do you suppose know anything about vaccinating dogs? Not many we assume, and not many owners who value their pups are willing to trust them to the bands of these novices. The. vaccination program is not calculated to cost the local or State government anything. . The 50-cent fee ought to cover that and the “in­ spector” would find bis dry’s work as easy and as profitable as tacking up signs calling tbe public’s atten­ tion to contagious diseases. Cumberland county has rabies in­ spectors who are deputized to bring indictments for violations of the statute, and as a consequence 90 per cent of the dogs in that county have been vaccinated. Whether Cumberland with 100 per cent vac­ cination efficiency will turn in a better rabies record than Iredell where nothing has been done about it at all, remains to he seen. What we are reminding about is that here is another Jaw that could as well not be on the statutes, see­ ing how it is observed and enforced. —Statesville Daily. T h e S w e a rin g H a b it. The swearing habit is one of tbe most worthless and uncalled for habits known. Some good people so called, i&dulge in it. Sometimes you get in company and hear a young fellow emphasizing every word he says with an oath. It does not help him; it does not prove what he says; it does not make him friends; and besides all this, swear­ ing is a sin. And one who will thus swear befure boys and children commits treason against both par­ ents and God. One good thing is, most of such swearers are dead.— J. F .'Click. P a y d a y . f It’s here. Payday always comes after reckless spending. And it isn’t pleasant. You ate socked thus: The nation’s tax load has increased I per cent in the last two years and is going up. Federal; state and local govern­ ments are expected to take 13.5 bil­ lions of dollars in taxes ont of the pocketbooks of citizens this rear. That amounts to £0 cents out of every earned dollar. In 1936 they took only 10.4 billion dollars, j Increased taxes paid by one indus­ trial firm since 1935. it ia said, would be sufficient to employ . 6.500 additional workers, men now with out jobs, for one year. More money is being paid in taxes than citizens spend for all food they consume. The federal government owes a debt of more tban 37 billion bucks.

There are things connected with politics that ..we do not like. Poli­ tics tend to blunt- men’s honor. Men who would spurn a gift that was stolen will acceot an office tbat has been stolen.

(From Alabama) The Shelby County Democrat spins an interesting yarn about a' man who ran for sheriff. He got 55 votes out of a total of 3.500. and the next day be walked down Main street with two guns hanging from bis belt. 'You were not elected and you have no right to carry guns,” fellow* citizens told him. ’Listen, folks,” he replied, a man with no more friends than I’ve got in this conntry needs to carry guns.” H is B a b y N o D a rlin g . Secretary Waliace is reported re­ cently to have remarked upon bis own lack of faith in the ultimate vindication of the present crop con­ trol policy of the Federal govern­ ment: And this is stimulating to some of us who have'been too stupid to see into the wisdom of this economy. ■ It has never appeared to us to make, sense that the way to have more is to get less. That’s the prin ciple upon which the agricultural policies of restriction and curtail, ment of production has been based. Our trouble in America is not one of over supply, but rather that ; of underdemand. Things will economically straight­ en out when we can put what we can make where it is needed. In the case of cotton, put it Upon the backs and bodies of the half-dad millions even within our own South and multiple millions more elsewhere in the country. . . . In the case of edibles, put them into mouths tbst are open and .'into stomachs that are empty. We. hac|„a{ ways thought that !Mr. Waliacewas too liberal-minded to al low himself, to. become permanently obsessed^ with' the fetish of National control of production of crops. It is heartening, therefore, - tipi snatch a bit of evidence that he is beginning tO;admit tbat hif baby'-is not the darVihgbe expe'cted’itJto b6. —Cbarlotte;Observer.. - * M are at work, if it is to pay direct re* lief or furnish jobs, if it is to pay for improving our lands, if is is to pay us for not growing crops or for not working, if it is to insure mortgage?, if it is to loan us money at very low interest rates—all these things and many more in addition to regular functions of government—then we are going to pay the bill and “and don’t iet anyone tell you differen­ tly.” If we want balanced budgets, if we want economical government, if we want to call a halt to the steady increase in taxes, we, as American people, must resolve and determine to quit looking at our goverments at perpetual Santa Clauses who get everything from some tovstereus source and distribute it freely, re­ lieving us of responsibilities. Dae to the fact that our. govern­ ment has not been collecting as much in taxes as has been partially re sponsible for - the psychology of something for nothing” that has been creeping upon millions who once tackled their own problems and worked out their own solutions. We cannot have lower taxeB and demand and obtain more govern­ ment help and the quicker we get that fact packed away in our grey matter the better off all of us will be.—Wilkes Journal. A n E lu s iv e G e n t. Charlotte’s “Robert Taylor” is an elusive gent, or is he? After Chair­ man Culter" Moore’s disclosure of huge shipments of liquor sent to his address in Charlotte in March, these shipments were increase in April, and in Mav the source of procument was charged, from Baltimore to an* other liquor distributing center where the records show that his business is not suffering by the pub­ licity. Those in the know say that the fictitious Robert Taylor is known to about every third person among the thirsty, and that the enforcement officers even know his telephone number, but these exense themselveB by saying that first-off they must have convictable evidence before they can run him in; must catch him with the goods and be prepared to face him and a good lawyer in the courts with something more than empty imagination. Chairman Moore has furnished them with his truck numbers and other information and to the layman it would seem that bis apprehension ought to be easy--but the layman probably does not know that campaign contributions and .other such little courtesies are meant to. cover far more than electing somebody to office. Oursympathygoes out to Char­ lotte’s law enforcement family. They are up against s real buccaneer, and with all their efficiency seem to be baiving a bard time of it. But take now the street address of a negro crap shooter and -the things would be easier, much easier. He might start his call to tbe dice to "Cum seben”—but he’d finish his “cum ’leven”—in jail. But who are we to be indulging in sarcasm, with so much sweeping to be done in our own back yard?- Statesville Duly. riving they were here at last. It seems the negroes have gone over bag and baggage to the Democratic party and we will no more hear the cry of “nigger” from Drmocratic orators. This takes away one of tbe chief points of Congress Harold Cooley of the fourth district who is one of bis campaigns took the “ne­ gro” as his subject and attempted to stir up race hatred between the wnites and blacks in his district.

The result of tbe race in the eighth congressional district in the June 4 primary was not any surprise to os. Every one of the five candidates, Deane, Burgin; Beasley, Ross and Newton claimed they would be no­ minated. if not in the first would certainly be in the second primary but all of them missed their mark as far as the first primary isconcerned. Deane,,a comparately unknown man of the five, getting a majority of 692 over W. 0. Burgin. of Davidson the runner up. Probably the most dis­ appointed man in tbe race was Edi­ tor R. F. Beasley, of Union. He confidently expected that be would sweep Union county yet there were several hundred votes cast against him in bis home county. And the same thing can be said against Bur* gin, the Davidson candidate. He was , egotistical enough to believe that the opposition vote in his coun­ ty would be negligible yet the other candidate received several hundred votes, Thomasville alone casting more than 800 against Burgin. Anson, Hoke and Scotland conn* ties which had no candidates were expected to give Beasley a big vote and put him in tbe second primary. For some cause or other Anson coun­ ty Democrats have always had it in for Union county at nomination time and then when tbe election comes a. round expect to roll up a big n , ority for the party. TbiB wasthe case of the late Judge Stack. ;The dignified jurist and one of the best judges that the state ever produced, was from Union and deserved reno* mination at the bands of his party. He refused to get off bis exalted po. sition and get down a wallow in tbe mire of petty politics and was de­ feated for renomination. Ansonand Richmond counties did the trick. And if Deaneis nominated Richmond county, which already h a s th e judges, and had the solicitor' for years will expect Union, county De­ mocrats to tear tbeir shirts for tbeir man. We hope Union Democrats will go fishing election day. They ought to, the -way they have been treated by tbe Democrats of the other counties of the district. Davidson is going to mske a migh­ ty effort to put Burgin across is the second primary but they have the shrewd: Demiscrats of Richmond, Scotland, Hoke, Lee and Moore to go up against and while we make a miss of it we are inclined to' believe that if is all over but the shouting and that Burgin will be the loser. It is always difficult to beat the ,high man and then . again Davidson has had the Congressman for nearly, a decare airitt the Voters may decide it is time to give the honor to Rich­ mond. even if she bad the j udge and has had tbe solicitor 10 years previ­ ous.—Union' Republiotn.'

Whenever tbe people can get it instilled into their heads that we do not live on the price of things., but live on their volume, then the country will be getting ready to move ahead, and not before. One reason the Republican ad­ ministration is better for the coun­ try than tbe New Deal control is tbat the G. 0.

MOCKSVILLE, N. C. J H B 4 Juseph KcCord .. WNV Servlet. SYNOPSIS The congregation of the Old White Church In Locust HOI turns out in full force to look over the new preacher. Dr. Jonathan Far- w ell, and there is much speculation among the communicants as to what sort of man he w ill be. Cassius Brady, treasurer of the church, bad recommended Dr. FarweU for the post after hearing his baccalaureate ser­mon at the graduation of Dale FarweU, his son, who is a geologist. Brady's daughter Lenora Interests Dale, who lives alone with his father. CHAPTER I-JContinued Later, when their elders had with­drawn for their talk, Dale found himself charged with the responsi­bility of entertaining Miss Brady in a secluded comer of the hotel lounge. . “What I can’t understand,” he declared wonderingly, “is how you’ve been around here for three years and I never saw you. I still don’t believe it. I should have found you before. I feel cheated.” “And now it’s too late,” she teased. “You’re all through here.” “I’m not so sure. I’m thinking of doing post-graduate work n e x t year," Dale volunteered hopefully. “I know I’ll be around for a while when you get back. Fm going to see you.” “But I may not be here,” Lenora remarked soberly. “Daddy hasn’t brought me a very good report about my mother. I haven’t told him. but I’ve almost made up my mind that I ought to stay with her next year.” “Well,” Dale ventured boldly, "perhaps the Farwells will be liv­ ing in your town by that time. Your father seems rather keen for it.” She laughed softly. “Daddy has amused me so today. He’s been the treasurer of Old White for ages and he almost never attends. But don’t tell him I gave him away. He surely is enthused over your father. You should be proud. Doc­ tor Farwell is a wonderful speak­ er.”“Pretty fair,” Dale agreed com­ placently. “I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he is the man you need. I’m growing convinced of it.” Before the day was over Cassius Brady had gained Jonathan Far- well’s promise to consider the new pastorate, if the proposal came through official channels. Within three weeks a committee from Lo­cust Hill waited upon the western pastor and heard him preach in his own pulpit. A formal invitation fol­lowed and was accepted. Dale would not admit to himself, least of all to his father, to what degree his expectations regarding that first church Service included seeing Lenora Brady. But he was doomed to disappointment. There was no sign of the Brady family in the congregation. When Doctor Farwell mounted the rostrum, Dale made a swift sur­vey of the faces within range. The brief tension gave way to a general rustling. Whispers. By the time the minister finished reading the lines of the hymn, Dale experienced his first feeling of relief. The re­action on the majority of the listen­ers was undeniably favorable. ' Dale rose to his feet with the oth­ ers, smilingly declining a share of the hymnal offered by his neighbor in black.“I know the words,” he assured her.With his brown head tipped back, hands clasped behind him, the min­ister’s son raised, his voice in song, all unmindful of the interest his vocal effort was creating among the nearby listeners. CHAPTER H Staid composure marked Jona­ than Farwell’s demeanor when he stepped down within the altar rail after the benediction to meet the members of his congregation, many of whom pressed forward for the purpose, Each new arrival was greeted with a firm handclasp and a search­ing glance from the black eyes, making it evident he would be known by name when he met the ' minister a second time. Approving comments upon the morning: ser­mon, many of them effusive, were accepted with grave unconcern. When Henry Marblestone, Locust Hill’s banker and wealthiest citi­ zen, eibowed a way through the milling crowd to proffer his own particular greeting, those nearest to Doctor Farwell gave place def­ erentially. Marblestone had head­ ed the' committee responsible for the pastoral selection mid the satis­ fying prestige lingered. With his florid face wreathed in smiles, Hen­ ry declared: “Well, Doctor, that was a very good , effort. I can see where you and I think alike on a lot of things. Congratulations!” “That is very kind.”Some undertone in Farwell's re­ sponse had a chilling effect upon Henry’s ardor. There was an awk­ ward silence, then Marblestone de­ferred hurriedly to the two women at his elbow.“My wife has been, very anxious to meet you, Doctor. And this is my daughter Evelyn.” “Welcome to Old White, Doctor Farwell! Your discourse was posi­tively delightful. Inspiring. Wasn’t it, Henry? You know I . . .” This breathless and unfinished of­ fering came from a pudgy woman wearing a white fur piece that came nearly to the crown of her laven­ der hat. Scarcely waiting to ob­ serve if her encomium had regis­tered, Sarah Marblestone. merged unobtrusively into the atmosphere of her husband, leaving the field to her tall daughter. ^ Farwell’s black eyes narrowed a trifle as he found himself elevating his hand so that it might encounter the limp fingers of Miss Marble­stone. He saw a willowy figure in a clinging green gown. A pale blonde with eyes very nearly matching the shade of her dress. A smiling red mouth displaying small white teeth. The voice suggested a cultivated drawl.“So glad to meet you, Doctor. We just heard that your son had ar­ rived, too.”This momentary respite served to aid the banker in recapturing his former assertiveness. “Where is the boy, Doctor? We’re taking both of you home to dinner,” “My mother?” A startled expres­sion in the blue eyes. “My moth­ er is dead.” “For goodness sake! What will you think of me, Mr. Farwell? Here Fve been talking your arm off and I never thought to tell you who I am. Fm Abbie Brown. I guess I just took it for granted that every­ body here knew me.” “By the way, Miss Brown . . .” Dale’s eyes had sought the front of the room. “Do you mind telling me who those people are—the three talking to my father?” “That’s Henry Marblestone and his wife. And their daughter. Eve­lyn’s pretty, isn’t she?” “I’ll say. If you’ll excuse me, Fll see if father isn’t about re&dy to go now.”Dale received another playful tap on the arm. “You’re interested in other things besides history, aren’t you?” Quitting the church together, Dale Farwell and his father walked in silence over a path that led past the thickly set gravestones—a short route to the parsonage that stood on a far corner of the church property.The new home was a roomy brick house, product of a more modern era titan the picturesque church with its wide white clapboards. As problem for which there seemed no immediate solution. The two Farwells were living alone In the house. Not only was the fact well estab­ lished, but it appeared that the pair in some preposterous fashion were managing their own meals. There might be no logical argument against a father-and-son menage, but the idea was disquieting. It was one of those situations which car­ried an appeal for action.. To add to the general irritation, no visitor to the parsonage had suc­ceeded in penetrating farther than the parlor. Closely drawn window shades gave rise to the interesting speculation that the remainder of the' ground floor was “unsettled." WatchfoI eyes had accounted for the fact there was none too much furniture unloaded from the van. Women visitors, comparing eager notes, agreed reluctantly that the one attainable apartment was more attractive than might have been ex­ pected. Carefully verified statistics ac­counted for the room’s inventory. One grand piano, tightly closed. One mahogany center table. Four upholstered chairs and three floor lamps. One oriental rug in dull G Mi i m Dale stood regarding the burial ground. he explained heartily. “My car’s out front. Just as soon as you can break away from here . . .” “Thank you,” FarweU returned mildly. “Dale and I have arranged to dine at home. We are scarcely unpacked, you know. I appreciate it just the same.”“Oh, well—whatever you say. We’U make it later.” It was evident that invitations to the Marblestone board seldom were, treated so cav­ alierly. In the vanguard of those pressing forward at the conclusion of the services was Miss Abbie'Brown. She sped swiftly down the center aisle leaving her friend Hannah Gamer staring after her in helpless vexa­tion. As Abbie hovered uncertainly on the side lines, her birdlike glance chanced to faU upon Dale, who had taken refuge in the shadows under the gaUery until his father should be at liberty. At the moment, the younger man was bestowing ab­sorbed attention upon a bronze tab­ let set in the wall. Abbie regarded him closely. Spec­ ulation became a certainty. Mak­ing a brisk circling movement, she approached the stranger from the rear and announced her presence with a playful tap on the arm.“Aren’t you Doctor FarweU’s son?” she demanded.“Yes. I’m Dale.” His eyes light­ ed with amusement, remembering the red hat and its owner’s com­ ment upon his name.."I thought so.' You don’t look much like your father. Fm sure I hope you’U like Locust Hill.” ‘Tm going to. It is a very at­ tractive town, the little Fve seen of it.” Dale’s eyes strayed towards the tablet, "I didn’t know before ’that this was such an historical spot. Fve just discovered that-the Brit­ ish'burned the church here!” He smiled again, a trifle apologetically. ‘Tve- always been rather keen on American history.” ‘‘Really? Then you must meet my brother. He has everything about Locust Hill right at his finger ends. A Son of the American Revolution, of course. He’ll be so glad to know you’re, interested in. Gdanial things.” With,this common ground established, Miss Abbie ventured .to bridge the years. "And Fm sure you and your father will find the parsonage very comfortable. It must seem dreadfully large for just two men. . I was sorry to hear about your mother . . Doctor Farwell hunted through his pockets for the door key, Dale stood regarding the burial ground.“Did you know there, was fighting around here, father? I just saw a tablet that says the- church was burned by the British in 1781. Seems a lot of your former parishioners were in the Colonial army. Some of them buried here after the fighting. Soldiers of 1812, too.”“It would not be surprising.” Far- well had located his key. “We are living in an old part of the country now. You should find it interest? ing.” He thrust open the door and passed within, Dale following. “I didn’t see anything of Mr. Bra­ dy today. Did you?”“He was not at the service. I had a note from him yesterday ex­plaining that he and his family were out of town. Have we some milk? I will take a glass up to my room. I have some work to do.” With the reopening of Old White’s parsonage, Locust Hill’s feminine contingent found itself faced with a coloring and considerably worn, covering most of the oak parquetry. Two large steel engravings hung on opposite walls. One of the pictures, Abraham Lincoln surrounded by his cabinet, was a trifle askew on its wire. No women could sit in a room five minutes with-a crooked picture on the wall. Lesser items In conference had to do with the utter lack of those little homelike touches that bespeak a woman’s presence. The marble mantelshelf, for example. Its dreary expanse was broken by a small Clock. Nothing else. Not even a photograph to furnish speculation. Most unbelievable of all, the par­ lor and its deficient furnishings were immaculately free from any vestige of dlist. A grudging unanimity in that' finding. "But the kitchen’s what Fd like to see. I'll venture it’s a mess.” Thus the oracular comment of one of the parishioners. (TO BE CONTINUED) Bighorn, Old Ram With Massive Headgear, Can Read Hunter’s Intentions for Miles The meat of the bighorn is one of the choicest delicacies of all the North American game animals. Its habitat is most spectacular, accord­ ing to Ding Darling, in the Indianp apolis News. At one time the bighorn ranged down into grassland and desert country of the foothills, but the white man’s rifle and his domestic flocks have taught the bighorn that his only hope of safety lay among the highest and roughest country he could find. Maybe an eagle has an eye as. keen- as a bighorn’s but they say an old rain can read a hunter’s’inten­ tion for miles.Some old-timers firmly/,believe that the massive horns of the moun­ tain sheep save it from skull frac­ ture when it plunges off a difl. May­be so, but a more prevalent use is as “Shock absorber” when they in­ dulge in their favorite sport of stag­ ing head-on collisions between the members of their Cock, quite evi­ dently for amusement and exercise. Actually the horns have been a se­ rious liability because they, have attracted the trophy.hunter. The once generous supply of big­ horns has been reduced to an alarming scarcity. The latest slaughter of bighorns took place in Mexico in recent years when air­ planes carried so-called sportsmen from the states into that country where the sheep were plentiful and they killed without regard to law, regulation or numbers. Combined efforts of the Mexican and United States government officials are seeking to stop this ' practice and additional emphasis is being placed on protection wherever a nucleus of this grand American mammal remains. The species is • barely holding its own. No more thrilling spectacle in all that America has to offer exceeds the picturesque big­ horn in his crazy retreat.

Next Saturday, July 2nd, is primary day for democrats in Davie and all the-other eleven counties in this congressional district, 'fhe race is between C. B. Deane, of Richmond county, and W. O. Bur- gin, of Davidson county. So far as we know both of these men are high-toned, sobei, reliable Christian gentlemen. Mr. Deane was high man in the June primary, with Burgin a close second. Just which one will receive the nomination we wouldn’t attempt to say. It has been sixty years since Richmond county has furnished a Congress man. .Forthe past six or eight years Davidson county has furnish ed the man to fill this important office in the person of Walter Lam­ beth. It is up to the democrats to name the man, and up to the Re­ publicans to defeat him if they can in November. G a rd e n C o n te s t Mr. W. H. Kimrey and myself were called to Cooleemee last week to judge the gardens in the garden contest. We were agreeably sur­ prised at the number and quality of the gardens which we looked over. The Brvin Cotton Miller has been sponsoring this contest for the past several years and as a result they have excellent gardens. It is esti­ mated that there are 250 gardens and all appeared to be excellent con­dition. They have used almcst every inch of available space to grow vege­ tables.It was very hard to select a garden and say that it was outstanding he- cause thev were all good. The num­ ber of different vegetables, succes­sive plantings, care of gardens and the use of available space were taken into consideration in judging. The winners and scores on the gardens were as follows:Judson Page, with a score of 96. Bvan Gregory, with a score of 95. - Mrs. L. L. Shepherd, with a score of 91.Mrs. J. D. House, with a score of 92. ;j. Atlas Turner, With a score of 91. R. S. Mayberry, with a score of 90.Prizes were given by the Brwin Cottpn Mill. This work is under the direction of Mrs. S. R.

O f I n te r e s t T o F a r m e r s The difficulty of securing good stands of cotton is recognized as one of the major handicaps to successful cotton growing. The answer as to how'to secure, a good stand, espe­cially when planting early to avoid the weevil; how to reduce or prevent seedling damping-off and many other plant diseases which cut your cotton yields, are given in the spectacular firm, “King Cotton.” which will be shown at tbe Princess Theatrein Mocksville. on Friday and Saturday, July 1-2. The firm opens with typical scenes of tbe Sooth. It tells a story of a farmer who had an unprofitable year at cotton growing. He decides to ask his neighbor—a Master Farm­ er—how he is so successful in raising paying crops. His neighbor tells of the crop practices followed; vividly describes the diseases which handi­ cap cotton growing; and shows how easy it is to prevent them. Convin­ cing results in tbe field prove how the grower controlled certain seed- borne diseases after' following tbe Master Farmer’s advice.An amazing feature of the firm i3 C e n te r N e w s.

MY DEAR VOTERS: In my travels over the district since the first pri­ mary I find that meny people are not in favor of second primaries. I found many people in Davie who expressed this feeling and stated that they might-not even go to the Spoils. In the first primary the good people of our district saw fit to give me 13,268 votes, which made me the- high man. I earnestly solicit your support in the second pri­ mary, on July 2, to fully confirm our v;ctory Ienteredtluscampaignabsolutely without money* and on Saturday the people who vote for me will do so without the high pressure of a Campaign Manager or paid worker in any county. The electorate is free to make its choice. . If you vote for me, and I sincerely solicit, your .vote and active support* you will be supporting a man who is accustomed to hard work. I will work for you in Congress, just as hard as I have worked in this campaign. I have driven anil personally canvassed over 10,000 miles throughout our district. I have personally seen, the peo­ ple. I have talked with thousands of Farmers throughout the district; They have told me their problems and needs. I am in a position after personal contest to go to Congress and fight their battles. The tame is true of the Business Man, the Veteran, the Employee, and men and women in: all walks of life Let me urge you to go to the polls Saturday and. vote for the People’s Candidate and a friend: of Davie.

It adds to the interest that gadgets in the w ay of costum e jew elry tuned to sea and sand and outdoor them es usual­ ly com plete the "picture” of each costum e. Citing a few of the sm artest m a­ terials em ployed, first and forem ost com es lastex, w hich is a boon to w om ankind in th at it confohns to “lines” perfectly w ith a m agic this- way, that-w ay stretching quality which solves the problem of clothes th at fit, retain their shape and offer perfect com fort. The big sensation this season is the sw im suit of black satin lastex w ith beach cape to m atch, com pleting the sense of lux­ ury. Flow er printed lastex ensem ­ bles also have their place in the style parade along w ater edge and sea line. O ther interesting m aterials em ­ ployed for playtim e clothes and w ardrobes for w ater nym phs in­ clude celanese rayon m oire, cela- nese rayon sharkskin, silk prints of fast color, - linens in m onotone or spectacular print and cottons so sturdy, so handsom e, w ords fail of describing. Then there’s w ear-for- ever denim , and w ashable gabar­ dine, so reliable w hen it com es to the w ear and te a r of riotous w aves or strenuous m ountain clim bs. A nother feature th at fashion spot­ lights, is the use of striking color contrasts, perhaps in the w ay of playing up print with plain o r the m odernistic gesture of m aking the costum e one vivid solid color boldly contrasted by another startling color on a sort of fifty-fifty basis. The m odels pictured are typical of this season’s swim suit and beach ensem ble trends. C entered in the group you see a stunning outfit that tunes superbly to a' statuesque fig­ ure. This com ely young w om an is w earing black trunks w ith printed “ b ra ” of celanese rayon sharkskin. A catalin fish pin on h e r hip answ ers the call for suitable costum e jew el­ ry. To the right, fashion offers a new bathing suit ensem ble th at striking­ ly com bines w hite w ith bright ocean- blue. The bodice top is blue w ith catalin fish pin by w ay of correct gadgetry. The blue beach coat w ith m onk’s hood of blue lined w ith w hite adds to eye-appeal. This very new and attractive ensem ble is of cela­ nese rayon jersey. A very interesting costum e, as shown to the left, uses blue and w hite cotton p rint for the beach cape lined w ith w hite te rry cloth, w orn over a loose-fitting w hite te rry cloth suit. A ccessory is w hite catalin Vi­ ennese stag horn bracelet w ith carved edelweiss. This costum e won an aw ard and is an adaptation of an A lgerian m an’s costum e from the Traphagen costum e m useum . To supplem ent .the* list of m ateri­ als sm artly in use for beach dress and bathing suit, hopsacking should be m entioned. It is ranked along w ith sharkskin for shorts and slacks and shirts. Then there are the fasci­ nating crinkle cottons th a t m ake such practical and attractive beach coats. W ater, sun or sand dim hot their beauty or colorfulness. One of the cleverest ideas is the quilted floral ,cotton prints. A bo­ lero of quilted print w orn with m atching printed broadcloth slacks together w ith a peasant kerchief of the sam e print is a happy, suggest tion. ■ T ry this ensem ble, it’s a win. n er this season. €> Western Newspaper Union.

WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON ■^EW YORK--France is begin- -*■ ' ning to think she has another Clemenceau in Premier Daladier,. and she still has Marshal Philippe „ _ . . Petain, one of theHow retain few survivors of Keep* Fit the great generals of 82 °f the World war.Two or three years ago, General Petain was counseling peace and conciliation with Germany. Now he warns the French people of their “serious sit­ uation in Europe,” and urges them to consider realities. It is quite possible that rope-skip­ping is mainly accountable for- Gen­ eral Petain being alive, trim, fit and active at eighty-two. He is, an inveterate rope-skipper, ejected from his apartment in 1914, be­ cause he jarred the plaster from the walls. This writer’s record as to that goes only to 1934, but, iii'that year, he was still skipping diligent­ ly. Joffre, Foch and Maginot, among the French, Von Maekensen, Ludendorff and Hindenburg among the Germans — non-skippers all— have passed, but Marshal Petain lives on, venerated by his country­men. It was he who said, 'tThey shall not pass”—on February 5, 1916, to be exact. He was the savior of Verdun, and, In this connection, a deft historian might discover that rope-skip­ ping saved France. The gen­ eral spent a solid week In an ■ Automitrallease without sleep, and the 'London Daily News commented at the time that no man who was not in perfect physical condition could have survived such ordeals. It was Suggested that Us energy and endurance had turned the tide of war. He was born Henri Philippe Be- noni Omer Joseph Petain, the son of a baker in Couchy a la Tour. * * • Man Mountain Dean, the wrestler, !running for the legislature in Geqr- n gia, is after onlyuean one seat, but he Girdt for will need three or Battot Boat four a he is elect-ed. In retirement on his farm, near Norcross, he still weighs 317 pounds. It is a unique contest for him, with no chance for his running broad-jump attack;-1 in which he hurtles his body against his opponent. His career seems to have been mostly his wife’s idea. Born Frank Leavitt, in New York, known as the “Hell’s Kitchen Hillbilly,” he did a hitch in the army and thereafter engaged , in some desultory wrestling and ' mauling as a Soldier Leavitt. Nothing much came of it, and he began placidly taking on weight as traffic cop in Miami, Fla. Doris Dean married him • and began prodding his lagging ^ambition. He started grappling again, in Boston in 1933, with fame still elud- n LiJf ing his half-nelson,Doubledfor wfen a German Film Star promoter took him os Henry V tll a ,tot^ °fJhe Rhineland. . This was more successful, and brought him to fiie attention of Alexandre Korda, who needed a double for Charles Laughton as Henry VIII in the wrestling scene. Thus came the famous whiskers, an important de­ tail of his wife’s clever-showman­ship ' in the build-up of the Man Mountain. It was she who persuad­ ed him to take the name Dean and who managed the histrionics which made him.a fabulous creature. He was born1 in West Forty-third street in 1891, weighing 16% pounds. r j EORGE E. Q.

W a s h i n g t o n D i g e s t dU t Q C S T Jjgfe, National Topics interpreted ByWILLIAM BRUCKART WASHINGTON.—The most impor­ tant news story in Washington and • throughout th e Keltef — country now is the Politiea use of relief funds for political pur­ poses. It is not only the most im­portant news at this time, but has been the most important and will continue to be the most important for weeks to come. This is so be­ cause the amount of money involved is vast and the number of votes possible to be influenced by that money is so great. The stakes are high and the unscrupulous are go­ ing to play for them to the limit of their capacity. I think tha;t per­ haps the corruption of the Harding administration with its shameful oil scandal was more sensational, but surely no one condones the present situation any more than the scan­ dals of the earlier, malfeasance of office holders. . In the. H arding oil affair, there w as perhaps 5 p e r cent a s m uch m oney involved; F ew , if any, votes of private citizens w ere a t stake; certainly, no votes of persons who through no fau lt of th eir own found them selves destitute. It w as the late Thom as W alsh, M ontana D em ocratic senator, who conducted the earn est fight to purge the country of the crooks a t th at tim e. And now th a t the senate again has taken notice of the conditions, one cannot help but w onder w hether there w ill be the sam e high-type of statesm anship displayed, the saime courage shown by som e R epublican or D em ocratic senator. F o r the sake of th e country, I hope th a t no stone w ill be left unturned by the Benate investigation w hich, though ordered belatedly and after an irri­ table reaction from th e country, nevertheless w as ordered by the senate. - The senate deserves no cred it for .having m oved to expose th e condi­ tion w hich Senator W heeler of Mon­ tan a described a s “playing politics w ith hum an m isery.” It h ad three chances to-show its courage and its statesm anship before it w ould take hold of w hat m any recognized a s a political firebrand. It ra n from those opportunities in th e m ost cow ardly fashion, under the lash of N ew D eal leaders in the senate. O n three occasions, I repeat, th e senate had a chance to a sse rt control over the $5,000,000,000 borrow ing-spending- lending bill and prevent, to som e extent, the fu rth er use of taxpayers’ m oney for electioneering purposes. And, I repeat, each tim e th e vote w as against inclusion of preventa­ tive clauses in th a t appropriation m easure. So, pione can say the cred 'i should go to th e senate even though now it pro m ises'to uncover facts w hich anyone, w ith a n eye half open, know s exist. T here can be no credit to the ad­ m inistration because P resident R oosevelt spoke not a w ord in be­ h alf of use of funds for relief and for the rem oval of politics. Indeed, he praised his relief adm inistrator, H arry H opkins, for publicly backing R epresentative W earin, the New D eal candidate for the senate nom i­ nation in Iow a. M r. W earin w as w ell licked by Senator G illette, an old line D em ocrat. N or did the P res­ ident tell the senate publicly th a t he favored a curb on the use of the m oney. Q uite the contrary. W heth­ er th e P resident urged them to do so o r not, his board of strateg y (the new nam e for the b rain tru st) put the steam on and m ade enough sen­ ators vote against th e am endm ents, to curb politics to insure defeat. They even forced Senator B arkley of K entucky to tak e the floor in fa­ vor of th e usje of m oney in any w ay the relief overseers w ant to use it— and Senator B arkley is seeking re­ nom ination in his native K entucky. So, no credit fo r th e m ove to draw back the curtain can possibly be given to the W hite H ouse o r any of the President’s advisors o r stra te ­ gists. •• • • No credit for bringing th e situa­ tion to th e attention of th e country . can go. to the Lfoagea house tit repre- in Hoaae sentatives. I t did not even consider any restrictions on. th e use of the m oney:w hen the bill w as up Ior passage there. T he IeadersW p in the house is controlled by M r. Roosevelt, b u t even then it w as sur­ prising to see such upstanding, square-Shooting in en like S p e A e r BanIdiead and M ajority L eader R ay­ burn of T exas sidle around th e hot spot. S am R ayburn is one of the really splendid m en in the house of representatives, b u t he dodged on this thing abd it is n o t com ­ m endable. Then, w here m ust' credit be giv- eh? _Why did th e senate finally tak e the b it in its teeth and set m achin­ ery in m otion for putting out th e fire before adjoum m ent? T he answ er is that th e people “ bacfc hom e,” and th at m eans largely in Sinaller tow ns and in th e country,, finally- caught up w ith th e fa c t th a t they a re being victim ized.

T T THILE the major battles \ A / between Japanese and ' * Chinese forces have raged of late in the northeast province of Shantung, Shanghai still has reminders of the con­ flict which swept through the city last year. In accordance with arrange­ ments of long standing between the Chinese and foreign govern­ ments, the latter maintain units of their troops at several points in China, one of the most im-. portant of these being the In­ ternational Settlement in Shang­ hai. Excepting occasional stately junks with eyes painted on either side of the high bow to enable them to "see their way,” there is little to suggest the Orient on the way up the Whang- poo river in Shanghai. Before the dock is reached, however, China ob­ trudes itself upon the sight and its odors penetrate the nostrils. From a downstream wharf it is a half hour’s ride in a tender to the customs jetty in the city. Wharves, warehouses, and factories line the shores. Immediately beyond the Japanese docks in Hongkew appears the curve of water front upon which three con­ sulates now stand. . Beyond lies the mouth of Soochow creek, the crowded stream which meanders tortuously through the city. It bristles with the floating homes of innumerable Chinese—Chi­ nese who are bom, live their entire lives, and die on the sampans which Jiuddle together in its murky water. Babies, toddling too near the gun­ wales, sometimes topple in, and, having been fished out, are set casu­ally to dry. Water dipped up over the side is used by the women for cooking rice and vegetablesclothes are washed in it; and it imparts that certain flavor to tea. A sampan gaily pavilioned and festooned in red indicates that a wedding will soon take place. English Had First Foothold There. Great Britain was the first of all the nations which now have such valuable commercial interests in the city “above the sea” to recognize the vast potentialities of the little fishing hamlet on the muddy shores of the Whangpoo. In 1842, emerging victorious from the so-called “Opium war,” she con­ cluded with China the Treaty of Nanking by which Shanghai and four other coastal cities were estab­lished as treaty ports. Within two years the United States and France, realizing that Shang­ hai’s geographical position made it the natural outlet for products of the rich Yangtze river valley, followed suit and signed trade pacts with China. Ninety-six years ago, when the foreigners first obtained areas for settlement, land on the water front brought only $200 (Mex.j an acre. By 1935 an acre of Bundside property was valued at more than four millions. An amazing variety of traffic throngs the Bund, that splendid wa­ terfront boulevard which is the cen­ter of Shanghai’s bustling activity. Fine Buildings on the Bund. Imposing.buildings, reminiscent of London, line the Bund; banks, busi­ ness houses, newspaper offices, clubs. TheconveyancesofflieEast, rickshas, handcarts, and wheelbar­rows, bearing an unbelievable vari­ ety of loads, make way for lumber­ing double-decked buses, trams, and sleek foreign cars. The Chinese have proved remark­ably adaptable in adjusting them­ selves to contact with English- speaking nations. They have .adopt­ ed automobiles, foreign clothes, jazz, and golf. The natives of the treaty ports have evolved a bizzare speech based on English with which they can communicate satisfac­torily with the stranger. Since the average occidental resi­ dent of Shanghai will not take the trouble to learn the local dialect, the natives use pidgin, or "busi­ ness” English. In fact, two Chi­ nese from different provinces often resort to this jargon, for each is al­most sure to have difficulty in. un­ derstanding the dialect of the oth­er. In pidgin IjIngiigh one word often does duty for three or four. - Thus my” signifies also "I, me, mine” ddd their plural forms. "My no savvy,” of course, means “I do not understand.” “What thing have got?” is to say “What have you?” When the supply of butter is ex­hausted your cook will come to you with the complaint, “Butter have finish, missie.” There is the tradition of “face” which governs the duties of each employee within ironbound limits. Your cook will not mix cocktails. He leaves this to the number one boy, who, in turn will not clean shoes or run errands. These tasks are the coolie’s “pidgin.” The wise foreign­er does not attempt to change cus­ toms which have existed for cen­turies. Chinese servants are justly fa­ mous. As a class they are unsur­passed in loyalty, industry, patience and cheerfulness. They sometimes wonder at the strange customs of the foreigner, but they bear with him. ‘ Night Life in the City. Even during “trouble” the famous night life of this cosmopolitan city of Asia continues with vigor. At such times private entertaining is somewhat curtailed. Pity the poor hostess whose guests have been caught by the curfew and who has them on her hands until dawn! Hotels and night diibs offer the usual diversions, profiting by the in­ creased trade which results from the enforced stay of those who are caught by the curfew. At such times, as well as under normal con­ ditions, the conservative old Palace hotel on the Bund and the Cathay, its up-to-date counterpart across the street, present pictures of gaiety at cocktail time. The bar at the Cercle Sportif Francais, the papular sports’ club in the French Concession, is. noisy with sprightly conversation in a half dozen languages. Chinese boys in long white gowns, their black* panta­ loons bound tightly about the ankles, move silently through the crowd with chits and laden trays. The 20-story Cathay hotel offers diverse amusement. The glittering shops in its arcade are stocked with Peking rugs, jewel jade, silks, and curios. For swank one dines in its grill under the lofty black pyramid which surmounts its root The or­chestra which plays in its air-con­ ditioned ballroom pleases even blase American tourists, and imported singers and dancers entertain the guests. Chinese dance halls have opened in large numbers in the last two or three years. The native musician has not yet become a master of American syncopation, and the or­chestras are usually Russian. A modem young Chinese in for­eign clothes, complete with horn­ rimmed glasses and brilliantined hair, executes elaborate steps with his slender, narrow-eyed compan­ion. She is gowned in high-necked brocade, dainty, exquisite. Some­times as she sits sipping her drink, she renews her make-up, with the contents of a compact. . Until well into the Twentieth cen­tury Chinese women of the better class were not seen in public. lWhen they did leave their homes, it was only in sedan chairs, concealed from the eyes of the world. With the in­flux of Western ideas of women’s freedom the Chinese -woman emerged from her isolation. Foot- .binding, possibly an expedient for keeping women at home, not only went out- of fashion but became il­legal. Women Ck> Part Way Modem. The transition period had its amusing aspects. Today the eman­ cipated Chinese woman has her hair permanently waved, smokes, works in offices, frequents night dubs, and drives a car if /she has a mind to. But with all her modern ideas she still is reluctant to adopt foreign dress. She wears silk stockings, dis­ cards her flat, embroidered satin slippers for uncomfortable spike- heeled shoes; but she resolutely clings to her long gown with its stiff , high collar and'. !Straight lines. •- The gown may bo split to the knee as are modish gowns in the Western world when the designers so decide, but her modesty still for­bids her to expose her throat. TTie majority of - Chinese shops flaunt gay red banners bearing in gold characters the description of goods carried within Cr - announce­ ments of bargains. These banners have almost entirely disappeared from Nanking road, but they hang in profusion the full length of the congested cross streets in the heart: of thecity. ...............IMPROVED ‘JKIFORM INTERNATIONAL SU N D A Y l CH O O L L e s s o n By RBV- HAROLD L- LUNDQUIST, Dean of the Moody Bible Lisutute of Chicago.© Western Newspaper Union- .

The study of biography is interesting, instruc­tive, and often challenging. When we enter the field of Bible biography we bring into consideration an ad­ ditional and fundamental factor, pamely, the power and grace of God working in and through a sur­ rendered life. All strehgfli of char­ acter and ability is a gift of God, put its glory is largely veiled and jts usefulness definitely limited, if Sot actually perverted, because iere is no recognition of the foundation of true greatness, which is faith in and loyalty to God. During the next three months we are to share in the study of the life stories of great men and women which will not only stimulate am­bitions, but which also reveal what God can do through those who are ready to follow Him. Moses, God’s great leader for Israel,- having brought them out of the land of bondage and through the terrible wilderness, is about to leave them. God’s workman is about to die, but His work is to go on. God is not taken by surprise. I. A Prepared Man Takas Com­ mand (1:3-6). “Moses is dead; now therefore arise.” Life is like that. “The king is dead; long live the king," is the cry of those who live under monarchies, as one ruler dies and |iis successor takes over the throne. Until that day when there shall be “time no longer,” men must put away their sorrow and go on. Three words characterize the commission., 1. Promise (w. 2-4). God gave the land to IsraeL Every place that Joshua planted his foot upon was to be his possession, even as God Jias promised Moses. A river lay between; there were walled and armed cities to be taken; there were even giants in the land, but God promised it to Joshua; and he took it by faith. God has given us many promises, too. If we are fearful, poverty- stricken, powerless Christians, it is because we do not believe God. 2. Power (v. 5). No man is able to stand against God’s servant who is doing God’s will, in God’s way, in God’s time. It was true of Joshua; it is true today. Men set up their opposition to God’s plan and pro­ gram with the assumed belief that because they have position, power, or money, they can readily crush the poor little band of Christian workers. Russia tried it. They even “abolished” God. But religion thrives in Russia, secretly perhaps, but none the less sincerely and'suc­cessfully. 3. Courage (v. 6). Toserve God means to be assured of His help. Faith lays hold of that fact and the whole man becomes courageous. II. An Experienced Man Gives Counsel (24:14-21). More than two decades have passed since the appointment of Joshua to lead IsraeL God has ful­filled every promise. Israel is in the Promised Land. Before the aged leader dies he calls the leaders of his people together to urge them to continue in the way of faith and loyalty to God. This he does by: 1. Example (v. 15). ’’As for me and' my house, we will serve' the Lord.” No man can honestly and effectively call others to devotion to the Lord unless he sets them an ex­ample. 2. Instruction (w. 16-19). Remem­ bering God’s dealings with them, the people declare their determina­ tion to serve the Lord. Hiey spoke rather glibly. ,Joshua instructs them. God . is not interested in lip service. He does not need them so much as they need Him. He does not look upon their confession of Him, if they continue to live in sin. 3. Warning (v. 20). God will visit His judgment on His people if they forsake Him and turn away—such is Joshua’s warning. We who . look back to flie history of Israel know that they did forsake Him, and that the judgment of God is still upon them. “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he' also reap” (Gal. 6:7) is God’s warning through Paul to the Christian. Be a Torch-Bearer The. poorest can be God’s torch bearer as well as the richest. The little candle may do more good in the world than the flaming beacon. Giving Up FaultsMost people' do not ,mind their faults being spread out before them. But fliey become impatient if called upon to give them up.—Goethe. Living He lives long that lives well, and time misspent is not lived,, but lost.

HOUSTON GOUDISS 6 East 3*th Street, New York Cttr. ' MY RECENT discussion of reducing in these columns brought many -letters, indicating that the modern woman is, fortunately, weight conscious. This is an encour­ aging sign. For it shows that you are alert to the dangers of overweight, which not only destroys beauty but may indirectly contribute to heart disease,' kidney disorders and diabetes, which take their greatest toll from among the heavyweights. Guard Against Unscientific Reducing Methods Some of these letters caused me great concern, however, because they indicate that in spite of my warning against unscientific meth­ ods of weight re­duction, many women still cling to the idea that there is some mag­ ic in the various pills, powders, cap­ sules, soaps, salts and mechanical de­vices that are sold at fancy prices and hold out alluring promises of speedy reducing without dieting or exercise.It is bad enough that most of these fail to reduce. For they may delay the day when the vic­ tim of overweight will undertake a sound and scientific program of weight reduction that will effec­ tively take off weight—thus im­ proving appearance, benefiting health and increasing the chances of longevity. Bnt what is far more serious is that some of these preparations may endanger health or cause lifelong physical impair­ ment. —★— Dangerous Drugs Drugging is particularly to be condemned, and no one should at­tempt to reduce by this method except under the advice and watchful eye of a physician. There are many invalids today who would be happy and healthy if they had not attempted to take some “reducing medicine” with­out consulting a physician. One preparation that is still bought by foolish women—in spite of repeated warnings against its use—may even result in perma­ nent blindness.Almost equally objectionable are excessive purging — which may leave you a wobbly wreck— and fasting, which is even more dangerous to women than men. —★— Don't Diel Wilhoul Direction . A carefully regulated diet will not only maintain normal weight, but will banish overweight by forcing the body to burn its own excess fat as fuel. Having heard of this scientific principle, many women frantically and foolishly attempt to prescribe their own re­ ducing diets — often with dis­astrous results. / There is always the possibility that one may omit calcium-bear­ing foods and thus impair the teeth, or leave out foods rich in SEND FOR T H IS FREE WAMlNHaMER OFFERED BT CL HOUSTON GOUDISS Do you want to know where JuM write to C.

One of the most common and most serious errors is to omit all bread, potatoes and cereals, in the belief that carbohydrates are “fat­ tening foods.” Carbohydrates are required by the body in order to utilize the fats in the diet, and when reducing, they are also nec­essary to burn up excess fatty tissue.Just as fire cannot bum without air, fat cannot be utilized in the body without the presence tit starch or sugar. When tiie diet contains insufficient carbohy­ drates, fat burns incompletely, re­ sulting in the dangerous acetone type of acidosis. —'f l- Counting Calories the. Easy Way to Reduce The one safe, sure and scien­ tific method of getting rid of sur­ plus weight and at the same time maintaining top health—is to con­ sume a diet that is balanced in every respect, but to count your calories at every meal, making certain that you consume fewer calories each day than your body requires for its normal energy ex­ penditure.I will gladly send to every read­ er of this newspaper, a copy of my reducing bulletin.
