I t is tragic when hum anity lose th e love of God one of their hearts and souls. T be love of God sbed abroad in m an’s heart and soul is the greatest safeguard to bis life, and to th e lives of his fellows, of anything else on earth. N othing equals it. E ducation can’t take Its place; enlightenm ent can't take its place; inventions and discoveries can’t take its place; form ality can’t take its place; m oney, w ealth and vast riches can’t take its place. T he great trouble w ith the world today, which is th e cause ot the m ost serious outlook of w ar and destructiveness know n, perhaps, since the flood destroyed the hu­ m an fam ily tram the face of the earth, except the eight souls w ho w ent into the ark, is th at love has alm ost departed from tbe earth. Instead of the love of G od in the hum an heat t today— th at is w ith rhe vast m ajority of people—it is envy, hatred, malice, prejudice, greed, selfishness, drunkenness, a. dultry, debauchery, dissipation, war, m urder, suicide, and so on. Beloved, this is tb e tru th . U ntil men and nations come back to God, repent, get forgiyeness of their aw­ ful sins and w ickedness, and have the m arvelous love of G od shed a- broad in their hearts, tim es will grow worse and’worse. People will becom e.m ore and m ore wicked. G od says so in . H is holy W ord. N othing can save th e hum an fam ­ ily from destroying them selves and destroying each other, except the w onderful love and grace of A l­ m ighty G od .within the heart and life. A bsolutely. W e are com m ended to love God suprem ely and our fellows next. T hese are the tw o greatest com­ m andm ents w ithin the Bible And they are th e tw o in w hich hum an­ ity are com ing short of. ‘"O w e no m an anything, but to love one an­ other: for he th at Ioveth another hath fulfilled tbe law. Rom . 13:8. Just as long as m en cbm e short of the great, deep love of God in their inm ost lives there will be w ar and destructiveness; and of course, ac­ cording to G od's W ord, this will continue until Jesus com es anc puts down all sin and wickedness, casts the devil into the pit, then sets up H is m illennial reign upon the earth. T h at will be a w onderful tim e then. H allelujah! H ow ever, every soul who will earnestly seek the Lord m ay have H is m arvelous love in his heart and soul here and now, and thereby be prepared to live w ith the Lord forever. T hen, reader, seek H im and let H is wondertul love fill and thrill you. It is the best thing on earth. Babson Give Good Ad­ vice. Babson, the statistician, gives a lot of advice. B ut here is some w hich seem s good at this tim e: If you have a store, be in it. every m inute th at it is open and attend to your custom ers as you never have before. If von w ork for someone else, give better service than you have ever given in years past. T here is no use talking now as to w hat will happen after the w ar. Between now and then, we should see a gradual strengthening in com­ m odity prices, productive real es tate, and em ploym ent. W ith this thought in m ind, we should forge ahead. O f course some tim e there will be another depression—perhaps worse than the last one—but this is some years ahead. M oreover, when it comes its duration will depend largelyupon how we act during the next year or tw o; If we attend to business, get out of debt, and have faith in one another, we should have nothing to fear.

While the W hite House has urged House conference a t W ashington to make a determ ined flight against a 1238,000,000 increase in farm “ par­ ity” payments, as voted by the se nate, Senator Charles L. McNaryl G. 0 . P . candidate foe Vice President in 1940, has assured representatives of farm organizations th at there will be strong Republican support to m aintain the "parity” figure a t the $450,000,000 level voted by the Se* nate. This action was accepted a t tbe capital as indicating that tbe admin istration w a s prepared . 1 0 give strong backing to a suggestion by Secretary of the Treasury Morgen- thau th at Congress scale down non­ defense expenditures by $1.000,000,- 000. H e proposed cuts in expendi­ tures on farm benefits, tbe civilian conservation corps and tbe national youth adm inistration. House m ajority Leader McCor­ m ack. of M assachusetts said he was opposed to tbe "parity” paym ent increase, but Senate Democratic Leader Barkley, of K entucky, said itw asobviuus th at we can’t save a billion th e re /’ adding th at he did not know w here Congress could cut ordinary expenditures very m uch. Parity paym ents are designed to raise farm purchasing to the level of pre-world w ar days. Up In Years.

Isn 't It about tim e for the people of this com m unity to get a little closer together, and work in a little closer harm ony one w ith the other? A country tow n and tbe farm ing com m unity surrounding 1 1 are brothers, and the one cannot suc­ ceed w ithout the cooperation and active assistance of the other. A farm ing section w ithout its ad jacent railroad and m arket facili ties would be a back num ber—a dead one— w ith little future ahead. Live farm ers would shun it— would have nothing to do w ith it— for live m en create a surplus, and they m ust have an outlet for th at which they create. A farm adjacent to some live town and shipping facilities is w orth double th at of a piece of ground w ith equal fertility located in some obscure section of the country. T he relative values of the products ot the tw o farm s w ould be about tbe sam e—the one high, the other low. Therefore, tbe farm ing com mu­ nity is dependent upon the tow n and its advantages for m uch of tbe rural prosperity, for tb e ease w ith w hich shipm ents are m ade. Farm ers w ho ' believe in them ­ selves, w ho w ant a prosperous com . tnunity, should encourage the town and its industries—should buy from the bom e dealers, should keep the m oney in the hom e com m unity, w here it adds to the commercial life of every person. E very dollar a farm er keeps in circulation at hom e sim ply adds th a t m uch to the ricbes of his own com m unity, to the value oi his own holdings. T he tow n and the tow n m erch­ ant owe an equal duty to the farm ­ er, for w ithout his cooperation both tow n and m erchant w ould perish. T be tow n should m ake the farm er welcome, let him feel that he is am ong friends, th at it is his tow n, th a t he has a personal interest in its w elfare. T he m erchant should m ake it possible for the farm er to buy his goods as cheaply at hom e as he can from some foreign house, and be should keep this fact constantly .be­ fore the farm er. H e shotsid encourage th e farm er by keeping reliable goods and sell lngthemata reasonable price. A big m ajority of the m erchants do this, although the absence of tbe m erchant’s advertisem ent from tbe local paper keeps tbe fanner in Ignorance of the fact. H e should encourage the farm er in all ways, exhibit a. brotherly feeling in spirit, and give the farm er to understand th a t he is interested in bis welfare as well as in the contents of bis pocketbook. I t has been dem onstrated repeat, edly right here in this tow n' that farm ers can buy as cheaply from tbe local dealer as th ey cau from a foreign house. B ut the foreign dealer floods tbe farm er w ith advertising m atter, w hile some local dealers expect to be tak en on faith. A nd the farm er is a wise one— he takes nothing on faith. “ Show Mev is his creed. And he goes to th e m an who advertises —who “ show s him .” N ow isn’t it about tim e for' us all to th in k a little, to get together, to push this com m unity right up to the front? dnA T |w Jvm m siN Q Home-Coming Day.

T he blab-blabbiug of high placed N tw Dealers occasionally is well taken. U nfortunately, nothing is ever done about exposed in effici­ encies—until some Republican does th e neaessary spade w ork. A n ideal exam ple lies in the stunning denunciation of the me cbanical aspect of the draft law by th at H igh Lord of N ew Dealism, M ayor Fiorello H . L aG uardia, of N ew Y ork City. T be M ayor’s IUt of things w ith the act are too m any to list here. T here is room , however, to print w hat Republican U nited States Senator A rthur V andenberg, of M ichigan, did in the way of spade work. H e introduced a resolution creating a Congressional com m ittee to investigate the selective service system , th e com m ittee to investi­ gate the selective service system , the com m ittee to report w ith pro- pasals, for any needed changes in 60 days.

Sometimes we think we hear some one down in W ashington calling to the people, “ Bello Suckers.” They have been talking about lighting for the freedom of tbe people, for de­ mocracy and all tbe tim e they have been dem anding legislation that brings us nearer and nearer to totali­ tarianism . Thejr have been talking about keeping out of the w ar in Eu­ rope, but all the tim e they have been doing things th at bring os near­ er to it.

A nother one-year scholarship to State College, Raleigh, has been made available to N orth Carolina 4- H Club members, this to be awarded for the best poultry record in 1941. L. H . H arrill, 4 H d u b leader at the college, has announced the schol' asbip is being m ade possible by G. Mann through FCX. The award will be based on the club m em ber’s record of productian, his story of 4-H activities, and his general all- around achievement in club work. To be eligible for the aw ard, a club m em ber m ust bave been en­ gaged actively in 4-H work for one or m ore years, the State College leader explained. Last year a total of 2,478 boys and girls participated in poultry club work add produced poultry and poul­ try products valued a t $79,179.

I Save to sleep amongst ’em. A man Sas to sleep sometime, and it’s easy to slide a knife into a man asleep/' She protested: ‘‘You’re trying to stcare me!” “Pm scared myself, ma’am,” he insisted. ‘‘I was in a ship once that game near mutiny and you could smell it coming days before. It was wanting to get ashore to the gold Selds that was the trouble then; ,and it’s pearls they’re talking now. Pearls as big as chestnuts. And Shey’re saying that barrel of amber- $ris would make the man rich that Ibad it safe ashore.” “But I don’t believe a word of all that about pearls, Corkran,” she declared. “If Cap’n Corr had any 'pearls aboard, I guess I’d know it! And nobody with any sense would want that bad-smelling stuff in the Sarrel; so if that’s all you’re worry­ ing about . . .” He looked at her briefly. He said In a flat tone, grave again: “It’s not all, if you want the rest of it. Ma’am, Pve served many’s the year at sea, and I never did see a mate playing Bckspittle and “polish your boots, mister” with his men that harm didn’t come of it in the end.” Mary’s pulse leaped. She knew suddenly that she had thought this same tiling, without knowing her own thought,-as she watched Peter day after day about the ship. She tried to persuade herself ISiereafter that Corkran was afraid si shadows but she could not for­ get his uneasiness, and a day or Swo later she repeated part of what iba had said to Richard. She did sot quote Corkran’s criticism of Pe­ ter, but she told Richard about the jpearls. He was interested in the pearls, Kut he did not ask where she had Kidden them; and he made light of Corkran’s fears. “Men are bound to talk when they’ve nothing else to da,” he said. Since the day he killed the whale, Se and Mary had drawn happily to­ gether, finding pleasure in this new (tompanionship, each at ease with She other. His confident dismissal of iher fears reassured her; and their itilk turned at random now, turned Kack to the years in New Bedford. Mary laughed at a sudden memory and said: “You know, Richard, I really hat­ ed you for a while when we were children.” “Me?” “Yes. When Peter gave you my Better.” He looked at her in a puzzled way. “What letter, Mary?” “Forgotten, have you?” She smiled.He shook his head. “I guess I’m dumb. What was in the letter? Who was it to?” She looked away from him, ab­surdly hurt and unhappy because he Biad forgotten; but then she remem­bered that Peter said Richard, kept Iber letter, that he even read it aloud Ito people, and laughed at it with them. She turned away from him, her eyes suddenly hot with tears; md he saw them and caught her asm and protested: “Here, wait a minute, Mary. Lis­ ten . . .” Then he stopped, for George was gust emerging from the cabin com­ panion close beside them, seeing her ioimson, with tears in her eyes and IBichard’s hand restrainingly upon ter arm. If George was disturbed by what Die had seen he did not show it. He Kept them together in talk with him i* while. When Richard presently left them, Mary tried to make some explanation, but George stopped :her. “You don’t need to explain to me, -Mary,” he said, gently and honest­ ly. “I’m beginning to get hold of utyself. There’s d jealous devil in sat I hate to have any man look »t you. I’ve made you unhappy be- 'tsmse of it more than once; but whipping it. I know you and Cap’n Corr are old friends; but I !know there’s nothing else.”She was so grateful to him that hereafter she loved him more and more. Richard told them one morning at Seeakfast his plan to cruise a while os the right whale grounds among She islands off the South American <ecast, and perhaps fill -their casks before refitting to round Cape Horn Innneward bound. Peter was eating slowly, sawing rfl the tough salt beef, not raising las eyes. He said resentfully: “This salt horse’s tough as witchet, Dick. 3 ’s about time we put in some­where for fresh stores.” “We’ll refit before we make up Bar Cape Stiff,” Richard reminded Bsm. “But we’ve got ■ business to attend to around here first.” Mat Perbes went on deck. "It won’t Bake more than a couple of these fiat old bulls to fill us bung up,” Richard said; and then Mat spoke softly through the open skylight above them. “Whales close aboard, Cap’n Cbrr.” Richard leaped toward the com- panionway. He called back to Tom­my: “Tell the harpooners to grab^a bite. I’ll have cook pass along the mess kid forrad. Sharp.” He scram­ bled for the deck, and peter more slowly followed him. Mary and George went on deck together. The day was fair, and for the season—early spring in these latitudes—mild enough; the wind light. Mary saw broad streaks of yellowish red upon the water. to starboard where the great schools of brit were near the surface; and a moment later a black back showed and twin spouts rose straight as fountains. Richard himself was in the main rigging, watching the whales now so near the ship that voices aboard were hushed and whispering. "Mr. Forbes, you play loose boat and stay clear,” he directed. "The mate and I will fasten if we can. Tommy, go aloft and keep your eye peeled if they sound. Ready the boats.” Peter said, to no one in particu­ lar: “Where’s Feik?” Without wait­ ing for an answer, he dropped down into the after ’tween decks to find him. A moment later he came on deck again. "He’s sick, Dick,” he said. “Corkran will take Feik’s place. Mr. Forbes, lend Borst to the mate’s boat. You can manage without him,” replied Richard. Peter protested: “Blast it, Dick, I don’t want to tackle a whale with a green man.”“I think Corkran knows his busi­ ness," Richard said curtly. “Low­ er away.” He turned toward the boats, not waiting for any further word; but George moved quickly toward him, caught his arm. “Cap’n, may I go with Mr. Forbes?” Richard looked down at him, grinned and clapped George on the * toTIA/* “Ah-h!” For the boat yonder was in the air. shoulder. “Go ahead, man,” he agreed. “Mr. Forbes, mind you keep clear.” And a moment later the three boats were in the water. Mary from the rail above them called softly down: “Good luck, George!” George grinned happily; and Corkran, bending the tub line to the box warp, looked up at her and nodded in a cheerful reassurance. The boats stepped their masts and under sail crossed the Venturer’s bow. Richard took the lead, Peter close behind him, Mat Forbes bear­ ing away beyond them to keep clear. x Isaiah, beside Mary at the rail, looked after them in muttering wrath. "Like as not young Stam-all give Feik something to sicken him a- purpose! He’ll always stay astern the lighter if he can, when it’s time to lower.” “He and Richard are different, aren’t they?”Isaiah exploded scornfully: “Why wouldn’t they he?” “Well, after all, they’re brothers.” "Act like brothers, do they?” he demanded. She turned to him in astonishment, and he said trium­ phantly: “Well, they ain’t!"“You mean, not at all?” “Not a mite!” he assured her. “But—they must be!” She was wholly bewildered; and her incredu­ lity, working on his anger/drove him to a loquacify he would regret. He said stubbornly: “Must be or not, they ain’t Cap’n Ira’d ought to know! Here the night he died, Ira told Richard that Pete wa’n’t even his own son! Me and Hiram was there and heard him. Old Ira told Richard he’d heir ev­erything, only, a dollar to Pete.” Realizing he had said too much, he pointed across the water; said: “The boats will be on ’em in a Tnin- ute now.” Mary, turning to look, found her­self shocked and confused by this in­ credible intelligence; but as the dis­tance between boats and whales nar­ rowed, she forgot what -Isaiah had said in the excitement of the immi­ nent encounter. Mary saw Big Pip in the bow of Richard’s boat half a mile away drive home a harpoon. CHAPTER Xm She thought for. a moment then that Pip had harpooned not one whale but a dozen. - The great flukes rosb and whipped from side to side with a terrible rapidity. The boat backed off, the sail and mast came down. Richard and Big Pip were changing ends. Isaiah cackled in shrill glee. “Never saw Pip mux it before. They don’t take to that! Look at him cut for ’em!” And then sud­denly, in a long, whistling sigh: “Ah-h!” For the boat yonder was in the air. Then the bow seemed for no reason to break off in small frag­ments; and then men and boat were in the sea, lost in a shuddering con­ fusion of torn water and flying flukes and a great black body swinging to and fro. She had forgotten Peter. She saw his boat now, the sail down, the oars springing. He was at the steering oar, leaning on, making the boat swerve toward the fighting whale. Mat Forbes, well away from them, was racing toward the fight. Peter’s boat shot in alongside the black bulk. She saw Corkran in the bow erect, the harpoon ready. She had an instant’s pride in Pe­ ter. This time at least he had not failed! Then she saw Corkran drive home one iron and then another. -Mary saw then that Corkran was in fact lancing, his shoulders pivot­ing like a boxer’s as he drove the keen shaft home. The whale in the instant after these new irons struck him had rolled a little, giving Cork­ ran a chance; and he was bold to seize it. She saw the thrust; and a moment thereafter, above that turbulence of foam and flukes, she saw a red flag of blood like a foun­tain playing. Isaiah cackled in a sort of glee­ful wonder: “Got him first jab! Say, that Cork­ ran won’t ever go ashore t’wind* ’ard!” Then the whale drove away, on the surface, thrashing - flukes, breaching half out of water, its spoutholes streaming blood like a crimson banner. Mary watched the men in the water. Mat’s boat reached them and began to Piclt them up, pulling man after man over the side. All of them. Saved! A great relief swept her; and she held hard to Isaiah’s arm.Isaiah said disgustedly: “Blast! That whale’s sunk.” Her eye swept the water in all directions and saw nowhere a spout, no glistening back, nothing but Mat’s boat yonder now full of men, and Peter’s bobbing on an empty sea.“Corkran went in too high with that lance,” Isaiah said, and spat. "Can’t blame him. He had to work, fast. But he went in over the shout der blade. Right whale’s got an air bladder same as a fish. You let the air out and down it goes. He looked at her sidewise. "There’s times I talk more’n I’d ought to,” he admitted awkwardly, “like telling you about the mate not being Cap’n Ira’s son. Richard told me not to, and he’d give me fits if he found out I did; but it’s so. Cap’n Ira married a widow wom­an, and the mate was her young ’un. She wouldn’t marry him only if he’d tell folks Pete was his. They kep’ anybody from knowing, some­ how.” He added: “But I’d oughtn’t ' to’ve told you. I was kind of worked up at Pete for trying to get out of lowering.” She said reassuringly: "I won’t tell anyone. It’s not our business, is it. Does Peter know?" He ain’t supposed to.” He cack­ led with a relish. “It’s going to be some supprise to that young smelt when he hears the will read out. I’d admire to be there to see.” The boats were near; and they moved to the rail. Mat was ahead, Peter some distance behind, tow­ing the stove boat; and Peter was standing up, using the long steering oar instead of the tiller which he might sensibly have preferred for this peaceful retom to the ship. Richard faced forward, and he. seemed to droop in a discouraged, broken fashion. Mary lifted her hand and called to them, a greeting with­ out words. The boat came along­side, and she called: “Was it fun, George? Are you hurt, Richard?" George grinned happily, and Rich­ ard shook his head. “I’m all right. Sassnet’s ankle’s twisted. The flukes just ticked me on the arm. But if it hadn’t been for Peter it would have been bad. The whale was ugly.” Yet she saw then that he was more seriously hurt than he had said. He was needing help to reach the deck. Hisleftarmappeared to be of little use to him; and he was white with pain. Mat said: “You’d best get into some dry clothes and see how bad that arm is.” Richard nodded and went aft, and Mary looked after him, wishing to follow him but George was beside her, flushed, full of talk, trembling with the excitement of the past few minutes. She heard him telling her what he had seen; and tried to lis­ten, and caught broken phrases. “One so near we could have hit him with our oars . . . Peter didn’t ,hesitate-this time.” And then she heard him say: “ Losing his boat will make Richard a-Uttle more hu­man, Not quite so sure of himself.” She wished to say loyally that as accident might happen to anyone; but instead she spoke of Peter. “Fm glad Peter killed the whale. He’s been feeling so badly about Uncls Tom.” “It was Corkran who kUled'if/t hf reminded her. (TO BE CONTINUED) t FIRST-AID + to th e AILING HOUSE , By ROGER B. WHITMAN , (<S Roger B. Whitman—WNU Service.) Tom Painting QUESTION: An. oil painting has a tear aibout an. inch and a half long. What do you advise on re­pairing it? Gan I do it myself, and thus avoid the expense of profession­al restoration? Answer: The method is to cement a piece of canvas oh the back. But before doing this, the fuzzy edges of the tear must be clipped off or pushed through to the back with a needle or other instrument. With -the fuzz disposed of, the edges are brought together as neatly as possi­ ble, and secured by the patch on the back. The painting is then touched up with the necessary colors. On a painting of any value, however, the job should be done by a profession­al; for without experience, the re­ sult is likely to be a botch. Repainting a House Question: Eight years ago I had my house painted. Wooden shingles all around. The mixture was com­posed of white lead, linseed oil, tur­ pentine and color in oil, also dryers. I expect to have it painted again. The painter wants to use oil, turpen­tine, color, dryers and very little white lead. What would you sug­gest? Answer: Paint for exterior use should contain a large portion of a metallic pigment, to give it body. Paint containing , a large proportion of color will have no substance, and the paint film will be weak. Exteri­ or paint should have a large percent­ age of white lead. It should be remembered that ex­terior painting should not be at­tempted in cold weather. The tem­ perature should be at least 50 de­grees, and after a stretch of at least four dry days. ' Condensation on Floor Question: The floor of a dining, room is about four feet below the ground level; the floor is tile laid over concrete. The problem is that on humid days in warm weather the base of the walls and floor are wet with condensation. Advice is asked on the possibility of prevent­ ing the condensation. Answer: A wood floor stuck down over a damp-proofed floor should prevent condensation. Mop the floor with a liquid tar or asphalt; then But down a layer of heavy asphalt saturated felt,- overlapping the sheets half their width, and cement­ ing the overlaps with liquid tar or asphalt. The wood floor is then stock down with an asphalt mastic cement. Reliable flooring contrac­ tors are familiar with this method of laying wood floors. Gurgling Water Pipes Question: In our four-year-oldbungalow we installed a washstand in the upstairs .closet. The pipes are in line with the kitchen sink. Every time water is used upstairs or down there is a horrible gurgling sound that can be heard all over the house. Pltnnbers have not been able to correct it; Can you give me a remedy? Answer: If you get the gurgling while water is draining out of a fix­ture, it is because air in the pipe ahead of the water can escape only by bubbling up. This could be pre­ vented by putting in a vent-pipe to give the air another way to escape. If the noise occurs when a faucet is being opened, it is because the faucet washer is loose or worn. Care of Venetian Blinds A reader sends in the following suggestion: “The original finish of Venetian blinds can be preserved by an application of paste wax rubbed on and then polished. This pre­serves the finish against stains from rain in the sumpier and provides a smoother surface, which can be dust­ ed more easily.” Caution: Do not let any of the wax get on the tapes, as it will leave a stain that will be difficult to remove. Water Heater Question: An oil burning heating unit has a tankless instantaneous water heating coil. Do you think {his is preferable to a heater using a tank?Answer: A built-in heating coil is surrounded by boiler water and should be more efficient than an out­ side heater. Heating is so fast that water is heated as quickly, as it is drawn. The idea is working out well. Room Heater Question: Can you tell me where a stove of the following-description may be bought? It looks like a pho­nograph cabinet, burns coal, and is supposed to heat several rooms. This stove can be placed in a living-room. Answer: You can get it at a'store of one of the large mail order com­ panies. This type of stove is called - a circulating room heater. Brick Walk.Question: I want to lay a brick walk in my garden, with bricks on their sides. I do not want the ex­ pense of a concrete foundation. WiU it be aU right to put the bricks on hard packed soU?Answer: Several years ago I laid a brick walk on the soil, spacing the bricks a half-inch or more apart, filling the spaces with' soil, and planting grass in it. There has been' no trouble from frozen ground that did not rectify itself. For the floor of-a terrace, the foundation should be more solid.

IN ADVANCE SIOO S SO We ihonght the entire alphabet had been used up by the New Deal, but they pulled another one on us not long ago—the O.P.M. Tvst what this means we can't say, un. less It is, '‘Oh, poor men.'’ It pays to advertise In The Re cord. This fact has been demon strated hundreds of times since The Record has been serving the people of Davie and adjoining counties. The wise merchant uses our col. umns to let the public know what they have to offer. A word to' the wise is sufficient. For the first time in eight years President Roosevelt admits that he made a mistake. The mistake, he says, was in changing Thanksgiv. ing Day from the last Thursday in November to the third Thursday. After this year Thanksgiving day will be observed the last Thursday in November —the old-fashioned date and not the New Deal date. The blackberry crot> is due to be ripe and ready for picking within the next three weeks. Just what the dry weather has done to this noble berry, we can’t say, as we haven’t had the time nor the ener­ gy to get out during the.hot weath er and examine the briars. The crop last year was almost a failure, but we are hoping that the berries will not only be larger but sweeter this year, as the price of sugar con tinues to advance. Welistened to Pres. Roosevelt's fireside chat last week. Germany says that the President didn’t say anything new, ,while Great Britain though he had practically declared war. Opinions differ throughout the world as to just what the Pre- sident means to do. He declared tor the freedom of the seas for A. merican shipping, but didn’t come out in favor of convoys. He stress­ ed the point that capital and labor should work together and let it be known that he though this was no time for strikes. Some of the lead­ ing statesmen agreed with him, while others thought he said too much. Time alone will tell just what is going to happen. As one North Carolina preacher wrote re. cently, “ The Salvation of America is not in her mighty trainer armies, mighty airplanes, mighty war ships and war machinery, but it is in our turning back to God in deep re. pentence, forsaking our sins and wickedness.’' Warning to Registrants. Warning to all Selective Service regis­ trants that they must respond to notices issued to them by local boardB or become liable to severe penalties was given today by Genera! J. Van B. Metts, State Director of Selective Service. Tbe Stnte Director pointed out that Sec­ tion II of the Selective Training and Ser­ vice Act of 1940 provides that any regis­ trant who fails to conform to tbe law or regulations shall be liable to punishment “by imprisonment for not more than five years ar a fine of not more than 310,000 , or by fine and imprisonment.'' “Most of the css-s of delinquency so far reported." State Director Metts said, 'have been found to be due to ignorance or carelessness on the part of registrants. He pointed out that heretofore it had been the policy of the Selective Service System to be lenient in cages where it is apparent there has been no wilful intent Io avoid service. “But the investigation of such cases is taking up much valuable time of local boards and of Department of Justice agents, when these agencies should be de­ voting their time to the more urgent work of national defense, ‘‘General Metts said, and then added: “Registrants bad better not count on an indefinite continuance of this policy of leniency.’’ In an effort to collect this situation and to avoid the possibility of prosecution for delinquency, registrants were reminded by General Metts that they must complete and return tbeir questionnaires within the time stated on the first page, they most report fo examining physicians at tbe time and place stated in the notice, and they j must report for delivery to the induction station when notified to do so. General Metts warned that failure to respond to any of these legal notices will subject the registrant to possible prosecution in the Iederal Court. Mocksville Circuit. THE METHODIST CHURCH.

Bethel, Sun-I = day, 7:45 p. m. > Letter FromSoIdier Boy Ft. Benning, Ga., May 24. Dear Mr. Stroud:- How is ev­ erything around Mocksville? Same as always, I guess, and tbe best town and county there is to live in. I thought I would write a few lines to give my opinion of army life I have been in tbe army a little over three months now. Jt seems more like three years. Time seems to pass so slow here. I am in a Combat Engineer Regiment. It is supposed to be one of the hardest working and toughest divisions of the army. Sometimes we have to work rather hard, and sometimes we don’t have so much to do. I think I would like it all right if I wasn’t so far from home. I am be tween 450 and 500 miles from Mocksville. It costs nearly one month’s pay to go home. I believe the army will better the physical condition of any boy. T have always been frail and I hav­ en’t gained anv weight here, but when I get adjusted to my “Life for a year,” I feel sure that I will be in better health. The only way for a boy to do bere, is just to show that he is do­ ing his best. I don’t like it here, but since I have to stay, I will do the best I can. I hear that it is being considered keeping us Selec tive Service boys for three years instead of-the one year that we are supposed to be bere. I think that would be useless, because there are enough boys outside who need the training, who should take our places. Itseemsto me that the marriage rate has increased a great deal since last October when tbe registration started. If I am not mistaken, any boy who wasn’t mar. ried then, was to be. considered as single when his number was reach­ ed In the draft. I know they think it is unfair for them to go, but it is unfair to us if they are not draft, ed. I feel sorry for tbe boys who have had their health fail them since last fall. I guess some of them are going blind, deaf and having heart failure. I don’t think the boys who really have some ail­ ment should he drafted, but the ones who are playing sick should be drafted. I certainly enjoy The Record each week. An Army Draftee, KERMIT SMITH. Center News. Mr. and Mn. N. T. Anderson were din ner guests of Mt. and Mrs R. S. Powell Sunday. Mr. and Mis.

XTEW YORK--George Ade is the ' first and the last of the modern fabulists. He might still do some­thing, factual but still fabulous, like Iron Hat Instead PPsttoday, about Of Afortar Board Theresa Crowns Beauty* once upon a time” was in 1921 when the pretty American girl from Syracuse turned in her thesis for her doctorate of letters, at the Sorbonne in Paris. Her subject was “The Moral Ideas in the Theater of Alexander Dumas the Younger.” The cheers were re­ sounding and international.Miss Bonney previously had romped through the University of California and had taken her mas­ter’s degree at Harvard. European bureaus of American newspapers rushed girl reporters to Paris to extoll her beauty and her intelli­ gence. She did not disappoint them. All the garlands of the Groves of Academe were hers, to say nothing of her flair for clothes. The least the girls could figure for her was the presidency of an American col­lege. Today is today, and in the years in between Adolf Hitler has brought about drastic revi­sion of “moral ideas” in France and elsewhere. And in these years, Miss Bonney has had a ringside seat at the apocalypse. Just now the Vichy government awards her the Croix de Guerre for “bravery and devotion” in evacuating refugees during the German invasion of last year. She needed no identification here, as she had already gained fame, not as an intellectual but as a photog­rapher whose closeups of chaos are official records in the Library of Congress and in the French ar­chives. Last December, she re­ ceived a grant from the Carnegie foundation to return to France and continue her pictorial record of the war. The hair-pin turn in her career came just at the time women were discarding hair-pins. In Paris, she sold a story to an American newspaper. They cabled for a picture. She had trouble in getting it and decided to put an end to such difficulties. With her sister Louise and her mother, in America, as partners she organized “Bonney & Co.,” operating the "International Picture bureau.” Lacking an important picture, she bought a camera and started shooting. Her pictures were even a bigger success than her thesis. Baron Mannerheim let her get into the thick of the fighting in Finland and awarded her the White Rose of Finland. Witty, dark-haired and vivacious, she made friends and frequently was a click or two ahead of her rivals in some new and unheralded belch out of hell. She brought back •to the Library of Congress 200 pic­tures of the blitzkrieg. •----- :T OUIS B. Mayer, motion pic- ture executive, the highest paid American with his salary of $697,047 in 1940, came a longer way up than ■ L.B.Mayer Came EtJ^ rs1?1 ‘he SEC Usting Up All the Way —from the FromSeaBottom b..ottom °.fthe- sea in fact. ^ At the age of 14, he wore a diving suit, salvaging iron from sunken ships at New Brunswick. His family had brought him at the age of three from Minsk, Russia, where, Uke George M. Cohan, he had been bom on the Fourth of July—in 1885. He sold his iron in Boston, saved $600 and bought a tumble- down theater at Haverhill, Mass., in the early days of the custard pie dynasty of the movies. In 1514, be got the New - England rights for “The Birth of a Nation.” That routed him to Hollywood, the presidency of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and a long, fast run-around on the grand circuit of movie high- finance. He registers vitaUty in every move and gesture—never taking anything calmly or in his stride. He mixes sentiment and business, stick­ing to a lowly paid employee like an heirloom, but firing an assistant mogul at the drop of a hat. O OBERT BREENAN, Eire’s min- ister to Washington, who is negotiating for food and arms from the United States, used to be a writer for American pulp magazines. He has been incarcerated in British jails in Dublin, Cork, Dartmoor and Gloucester. He was one of six men who were sentenced to execution, in the war against the Black and Tans, but as the others were being led out to be shot, he was, for some mysterious reason, given his liber­ty. In 1920, De Valera made him undersecretary of the foreign office.

By July 21 such camps will be in operation throughout the country under administra­tion of the American Friends Service committee. L a r g e s t T r a n s p o r t o f I t s K i n d A...... The world’s largest twin-motored airliner, the new 36-passenger Cur- tiss-Wright transport plane. The plane, designed for army troop trans­ port, arrived in New York after a non-stop flight from St. Louis. It can accommodate 40 soldiers. Cruising at 60 per cent of full speed, it averaged better than 215 miles-an hour on the 933-mile test flight.

M e n H i t l e r T r u s t e d E3 SCR By VIRGINIA VALE (Released by W estern N ew spaper Union.) YOU’LL see a much slimmer Edward Arnold than usual in “Nothing But the Truth”—slim­ mer by 35 pounds, as a matter of fact. The reducing wasn’t in­ tentional; Arnold barked his shin in a plane, developed blood poisoning, and off went the 35 pounds. As all the action of the pic­ture takes place during 24 hours, he had to be careful not to gain even a few ounces while it was being made.. He’s to have the top role in “The Devil and Daniel Webster” next—I as a result of an accident suffered by Thomas MitcheU. Bing Crosby and Bob Hope were to' take the “Road to Moscow” in their next “Road” picture, but cur­rent events made it seem advisable to change the title, so instead they’ll take the “Road to Morocco.” Ellen Drew’s good work in “The Parson of Panamint” caused her studio to buy “The Silver Queen” as a future starring vehicle for her. She’ll play a New York girl of wealth in the 1880s—the girl’s father Ernest Roehm (left) and Rudolf Hess, the only, two men whom Hitler fully trusted seven years ago. Yet Roehm was assassinated in a “purge” and now Hess has fled Ger­many. ‘I n v e s t i g a t e d ’ Officers and pon-commissioned officers of the British army are shown somewhere in England, in the most strenuous part of their “harden­ing” course. At the top, a detail of men takes a swim with full equip­ment. Below, the men with rifles strapped to their backs and in full kit clamber from the water after their chilly dip. H a w a i i a n L e i Q u e e n R u l e s F e s t i v i t i e s Shown in the center of this picture, with, her court attendants, is Pauline Wcssel, Lei Queen, as she ruled over the annual Lei Day festivi­ ties in Honolulu, Hawaii.' The coronation of her majesty at the Uni­versity of Hawaii was the high spot of this colorful celebration. A German alien, Frederick Reis, 43, of Oakland, Calif., was jailed in San . Francisco with, the - police claim, Bethlehem Steel company shipyard blueprints in his posses­sion. FBI agents begah an immedi­ate investigation. W o m e n ’s L e a d e r ELLEN DREW loses his fortune in gambling, and the girl becomes a spectacular pro­ fessional gambler in the mining camps of the old -West. Her latest film to be released is “Reaching for the Sun,” in which she is co- starred with Joel McCrea and Ed­die Bracken. Bill Boyd breaks the long term screen characterization record with his present Hopalong Cassidy por­trayal in “Secret of the Wastelands” —it’s his thirty-seventh appearance in the part, and he’s been at it for seven years. Ginny Simms, whom you’ve heard on the air as the singer with Kay Kyser’s band, has signed a long­term contract with RKO. She’ll go right on appearing with the “Col­lege of Musical Knowledge,” paus­ing to make pictures when she’s summoned. Jean Arthur is plractically certain to play the lead in “Miss Susie Sla­ gle’s,” Paramount’s version of the very popular book of two years ago. She should be excellent as Uie charming little Southern woman with a flock of medical students as paying guests in her home. The man who gave Bette Davis her first job in a theater is in the movies himself; hefs Harold Win­ ston, dialogue director on Frank Capra’s pictures. He was directing at the Cape Playhouse at Cape Cod, Mass., and she was just out of dra­ matic school when she asked for a job. He didn’t have one for her, but she said she’d usher for the chance to work in a theater. After several weeks the star of the com­pany, Marguerite Churchill, had to leave for Hollywood, suddenly, and Bette took her place. “Look Who’s Talking” is before the cameras—with a listener audi­ence of nearly 100,000,000 radio fans waiting for it to reach the screen. It stars Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy, Fibber McGee and Mol­ly. Lucille Ball, who’s very good in Harold Lloyd’s “A Girl, A Guy and A Gob,” has a major role; Lee Bon- nell plays opposite hir. Metro has a new singer on .its list —Anne Rooney, who is sixteen, five feet tall, and has been gathering ex­ perience as an entertainer since she j was two.. At five she was guest star j with Al Pearce and his Radio Gang;; three years, later she did a year in •' vaudeville with her sister and par- ' ents.

The soft, sunny days of late May and early June tempt even the most conscientious to turn their backs on work, and, since “the only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it,” a picnic is the answer! One reason for the nation-wide popularity of picnics is that they’re easy on the lady of the house . . . sliced tomatoes and green onions for salad . . . corn - on - the - cob, if a vegeta­ble is wanted (“roasting ears” may be cooked in hot coals, allowing 20 minutes to a half hour for the best flavor) . . . taste-tempting cheeseburgers . . . lemonade, milk or coffee, or all three . . . and dessert—it’s as simple as that! No dishes to wash afterward . . . no table linen for the laundry bag . . . in fact, it’s almost a case of “no work and all play!” For that “something hot” which is a picnic “must,” I suggest plump, juicy cheeseburgers. If you’re pic­ nicking in the woods, your array of 'burgers probably won’t look like the above picture, but they’ll no doubt taste the same. If you are entertaining the family or guests at a “back yard” supper, you can serve a large tray of cheeseburgers with assorted relishes, shoe-string pota­toes, and tall glasses of milk or iced ,tea—they’ll love the combination! tCheesebnrgers With Piquant Sauce. 2 pounds ground beef % cup milk I teaspoon salt Dash pepper% pound American cheese Vt pound butter S buttered buns Mix ground beef with milk, salt and pepper. Form 8 patties of meat about 3 inches in diameter. Cut 8 slices of cheese slightly smaller than size of meat patties. Melt butter in skillet and fry patties slowly for about 10 to IS minutes, turning sev­eral times during the cooking pe­riod. Place on buttered toasted buns, spread with piquant sauce and top with a slice of cheese. (If pre­ pared indoors, place under broiler flame until cheese begins to melt). Serves 8. Piquant Sauce. Vi cup chili sauce Vi cup pickle relish I tablespoon prepared mustard, or I tablespoon horseradish Mix all ingredients together well. If a more highly seasoned sauce is preferred,- a teaspoon-of Worcester­shire sauce may be added. Or you may want to try fried eggs and hamburger, sandwich style. Cook hamburgers, set aside to keep hot. Ehry eggs in same skillet, and serve eggs atop the hamburgers. LTNN SATS: When hamburgers are included in the picnic menu, form the pat­ties of ground meat, mixed with minced onion and seasoning, be? fore you leave home. Place be­ tween waxed paper, and they’re ready to cook when the fire is ready. Hash goes upstage when it is used as a bun filler. Scoop out rolls, (leftover or fresh) butter insides and pile full of savory cooked "hash. Brush top with melted butter or gravy and bake 15 minutes in moderate oven. Ideal for out-of-door suppers. _To “dress-up” your picnic bill- of-fare, there are colorful oilcloth and/or paper tablecloths and nap­ kins. You can find them designed to carry out nearly any' theme you so desire. And, as an added tip, in case you’re planning, to spread an oilcloth covering on the ground, attach it to a pair of old curtain rollers. They’ll pre­ vent even the strongest wind from blowing it away!Good news for picnic lovers are the new “lunch” kits. In them you’ll find two one-quart vacuum bottles, phis a metal lunch box. The bottles carry their own cups, nested within their screw tops. The nicest thing, however, is the leg" which converts the inside lid into a table. THIS WEEK’S MENU Bonfire Banquet •Cheeseburgers With Piquant SauceSliced Tomatoes and Green Onions Raw Carrots Potatoes or Green Com, Roasted over Hot Coals Cup Cakes, Pie (not juicy, please) or Fruit Coffee or Milk in a Thermos, or Lemonade •Recipe given. Here are more let’s-have-a-picnic suggestions: Cole Slaw.(To Make “On Location”) 3 cups finely shredded cabbage Vi cup mayonnaise 3 tablespoons french dressing 2 tablespoons thick cream Mix the mayonnaise, french dress­ing and cream together and mix into the cabbage just before serving. Add more salt if necessary.

Variations: Meats, such as diced tongue, ham or frankfurters may be added to the standard recipe, and seasonings of chives and green pep­per may be included. Marshmallow-Graham Cracker Dessert Sandwich. For each person, allow Vi milk chocolate candy bar, 2 graham crackers and 2 marshmallows. Toast marshmallows, then place them on the chocolate candy that is on one graham cracker. Put the second graham cracker on top and it is ready to eat. The marshmallows should be hot and soft.• * • While your picnic group may be addicted to frankfurters in their own sweet, natural style, you might like to try a new trick. Split the large frankfurters down their middles, spread with rich, brown prepared mustard, fill with chopped sweet pickle and turn them over to the “cooking department” to broil. They’ll prove ever so popular! Here’s a good one to cook in - a kettle: put in one potato for each person, and cover with water. When potatoes are almost tender, add frankfurters (enough for everybody) and heat thoroughly. With buttered buns, ketchup, and perhaps some fresh fruit for dessert, you have a simple and extremely tasty picnic meal. * * * If it’s ice cream you're planning for dessert,-Pd suggest you use an ice cream freez­ er (little son can do the grinding before “starting” time), or pack re­frigerator - made ice cream in dry ice. Here’s a rec­ ipe for a favorite that should please everyone. Chocolate Ice Cream. I square unsweetened chocolate % cup sweetened condensed milk % cup water. Vi teaspoon powdered mace Vi cup whipping cream Melt chocolate in top of double boiler. Add sweetened condensed milk and stir over boiling water for five minutes until mixture thickens. Add water and mix well. Chill thor­oughly. Add mace. Whip cream to custard-like consistency and fold .into chilled mixture. Pour into freezing pan. Place in freezing unit of refrigerator. After mixture is about half frozen, remove from re­ frigerator. Scrape mixture from sides and bottom of pan. Beat until smooth,, but. not until melted. Smoottt out and replace in freezing unit until frozen, for serving. Serves 6.(Released Ce Western Hevspaper Union.) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I CHOOL L e s s o n By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST.

BEGINNING OF WORLD MISSIONS WESSON TEXT—Acts 12:25-13:12. GOLDEN TEXT-And be said unto them, Gn ye into all (be world, and preach the gospel to every creature.—Mark 16:15. Nineteen hundred years of “front line action” for Christ, began that day in Antioch when the first mis­sionaries of. the cross were sent forth. There is no more thrilling story In all history than that of mis­ sions. The glorious thing is that it goes on year after year, and will do so as long as the Lord of the harvest continues to send forth workers. The writer of tbese notes is glad to be associated with a training center which in its half century of operation has prepared for service about 2,300 men and women who have been sent to the foreign field by their churches and missions, and of whom approxi­mately 1,600 are still active on the field in spite of “peril, toil and pain.”Our lesson teaches us how “to fight the good fight of faith” (I Tim. 6:12). First we must have I. The Base of Operations (w. 1-3). Every army must have a home base; just so, the army of the Lord looks to the home church, the local gathering of God’s people. An army would fail if those at the base of its action were asleep, or so interested in the pleasures of this world, or so indifferent to their responsibility, that they would not work hard in support of the active army. So the cause of Christian missions cannot go ahead if it has to depend on a home church which is spiritually asleep, indolent, indifferent, and worldly minded. The church at Antioch prayed and fasted. It ministered the Word of God. It was responsive to the guid­ance of the Holy Spirit and ready to sacrifice by giving its leaders to the missionary cause. Is your church that kind of a church? If not, why not? Obsemre also that it is from such a church that God calls His workers. Sunday school teacher, you may have in your class next Sunday one of the missionary leaders of the next generation. See to it that the mes­sage from God reaches that heart. n. Good Soldiers of the Cross (w. 2-4). The army does not call for the weak or physically handicapped to serve. Just so, God’s service calls for the strongest men and women of the church, not the misfits or fail­ures. A girl was once heard to re­ mark: “If I can’t get married, Iwill be a missionary.” Fortunately for God’s work, she did get mar­ried. Some men who. cannot suc­ ceed in business think that means they should be missionaries. God wants our best (Deut. 15:2) and He wants the best a church can give, which means the best spiritu­ally, but in other ways as well. Note also in verses 3 and 4 that the messengers of the Lord must be con­stantly led of the Holy Spirit. ’ BH. The Heat of Battle (w. 5-10). Warfare is not a Sunday school picnic. . It means conflict with this forces of the enemy. So the mis­sionary of the cross must be pre­pared to meet Satanic opposition. Saiil and Barnabas met this “son of the devil” (by the way, reader, we trust you do not belong to that fam­ily) who opposed the work of grace which had begun in the heart Of the governor (w. 8-10). However, there are those who do seek to hear the Word of God (v. 7) as did Sergius Paulus. The business of the missionary is to preach to them, but not only to them. The city of Paphos was really a minia­ture of the world of that day. It was a Greek city of high culture and low morals. It was ruled by the Roman governor, a man of noble character and a “man of understanding” (v. 7). But right with him was Elymas the sorcerer, a wicked and ungodly Jew, a disgrace to his own people and a hindrance to the work of God. The messenger of God rejoices in the opportunity to minister the Word, whether to Roman, Jew, or Greek, of high or low estate, wicked, or good, interested or antagonistic. They ' all need God’s Word. IV.. Victory for Christ (w. 11,12). The army goes into battle with the purpose of winning a victory, or it is defeated before 'it starts. The Lord’s army is on a • victorious march, certain of success, because He that is in us is “greater than he that is in the world” (I John 4:4).In dealing with the sorcerer, Paul brought down the drastic judgment of God, Note thatthiswas notdone because Efiymas opposed Paul, or because he had some different be­ lief, but because he ih his wickedness opposed God. Those who fight against God are in a losing battle, the victory is always on His side. There was another kind of victory here, and the soldiers of the cross are (or should be) far more inter­ ested in that type of victory; namely, the surrender of a sinner at the foot of the cross. God won a victory in the heart of Sergius Paulus. Smartly-Styled Knitted Clothes Ideal for Town, Country Wear By CHERIE NICHOLAS TTNITTED fashions may “steal the -*-*■ show” (his season, according to reports from style headquarters. The enthusiastic demand for knit­ted things has gone beyond what even the most optimistic dealers an­ticipated. Not for many, seasons has there been such a tremendous vogue for handknits and for machine knits that look like handknits.The wonders that are being per­formed in simulating, through knit­ted technique, tweeds and patterned woolens seem almost unbelievable until one sees the 1941 knitted ap­parel. In modern displays one comes across such stunning machipe-knit models as are pictured in the ac­companying, illustration. The town suit shown to the left is a tailor knit of navy wool combined with a nubby white yarn. The horizontal stripes are cleverly worked through the long-torso fitted jacket. The., navy skirt of nubby wool knit is simple in line—a wonderful light machine-knit fabric that gives body for good tai­loring. White gloves and shirt and bright red straw hat make it crisp looking for town.The casual dress to the right, a clever simulated handknit in crayon beige, is one of the reasons for the new enthusiasm for knitted clothes. Fashioned on simple line, ite yoke, sleeves and skirt introduce interest­ing texture in ribbed effect. The bodice is closely knit and it is trimmed with metal buttons and belt.Hound’s tooth check in sage green and white and tricot cord, both ma­chine knitted of lightweight wool, make a wonderful casual suit for the country, as shown centered in the group. The softly tailored one- button jacket with deep revers has narrow yellow zephyr knit piping as its only trimming. This is a woolknit that won’t sag or stretch, the perfect costume for casual coun­try wear. There is fine opportunity in the knitted realm to mix and match skirts and jackets. While most of the newer Imit skirts have the pleat­ed look there are also skirts with stylish gored flares. In jacket styles one finds endless variety. Wrist- length tailored jackets, often with small notched collars, novelty gold buttons and four patch pockets, are leaders. One very stylish jacket is the shorter-than-wrist-length type, with slight easy blousing above a belted waistline. Stripes are often favored in jackets worn with plain skirts. In dresses a popular choice is wool chenille that looks as if it is hand- knitted. Also a favorite is a collar- less line plaid wool knit model with round neck, and buttons down to the waist. Jacket sweaters are very impor­ tant. They are interesting because of their novelty and variety. The cable stitch cardigan, which comes well down over the hips is a favorite type. Novel trims in endless variety add zest to the jacket mode. One of the interesting decorative touches' is narrow fringe made of the yarn of which the jacket is knitted. Enthu­siasm for things knitted is reflected in a revived vogue for swim suits that are fashioned most intriguingly, a favorite model being striped and styled along princess lines. Red and white is the most popular color com- bination. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) U n d e r b r i m F l o w e r s F Here’s how flowers are being worn on the underbrims of the new large summer hats. Those pictured are bright' yellow. Milliners every­where will tell you that there’s noth­ing smarter than a touch of yellow on your chapeau. The biggest flow­er news of all . is that It is very smart to pin natural flowers on your hat. Lots of girls have put roses and-even orchids, real ones, on their hats. The hat above is black felt, tied on with a black tulle bow.Fresh aiiniosa sprays are on the underbrim... The suit worn is black faille silk, with a snugly fitted jack­et, over a Val lace and white batiste blouse.- Nylon Dresses Nylon dresses are making their debut in the better-dress sections of leading stores. Daytime styles in­clude afternoon types in navy with cape shoulders and finely pleated skirts. A model in black has an all-over shirred jacket,Evening styles, including dinner and more formal gowns, have crisp full' skirts. Tissue-Like Crinkle Sheers To Predominate in Summer . The major trend' is “sheers for summer.” There is a sheer char­acter about most of the new sum­mer fabrics. Perhaps this trend is most notable in the new. tissue-like crinkle sheers. These Come in dark as well as light flowery prints and therefore are practical, being wash­able and ever so good looking. Cloque organdies In delicately flowered prints, marquisettes, tissue voiles, processed so as to be non- wrinkable, are all on the 'first-in­fashion fabric list. The topic-making conversation throughout style centers at the pres­ent moment is black sheers for sum­mer. Best-dressed women are voicmg widespread favor for cos­tumes done in black sheer. Per­ haps this is a natural reaction to the wild color extravaganza that has taken the world of fashion by. storm. But whatever' the reason, the fact remains that thin dresses and suits for summer are beings given an earlier-than-usual promotion. Black sheers are referred to as “siren black,” “black" magic.” Hats of blade shirred net, some huge of brim, will be worn this sum­ mer. Milliners are also turning out handsome large Imts made of ex­ quisite black lace. The vogue for black sheer - is even extending to hosiery. Roses, Strawberries Vie For Popularity in Prints Roses and strawberries are con­testants in .the summer; fashion picture. When you go “print” shop­ping, keep your thoughts centered on roses and strawberries. It is an open question as to .which is leading in the print mode. The rose theme appears in every conceivable form from tiny sweet­heart roses to huge American Beau­ties. The same may be said of straw­berries. The very newest prints play up the strawberry in realistic colors. • j o s s Some Waist! Gladys—Last night Ben tried to put his arm around me three times.

N. C.. JUNE 4.1941 Voters Say “No* To Liquor Voters’ Ohdea Each year an increasing number of Americans decide the Uquor ques­tion for themselves by making the liquor traffic illegal in their cities or counties.These hard-headed American citi­zens seem to be coming out from under the delusions fostered by high- powered propaganda during the liquor-inspired fight on national pro­hibition.They look around their own neigh­ borhoods, mull over the easily visi­ble effects of liq­uor on parents, on car drivers and on youth, and then they decide —as their parents were forced to decide early in this century—that the best means of liquor control is a resounding "no” at the ballot box.Not much gets into the press about the number of wet-dry elec­tions held each year in a score or more of states. The results of these elections are difficult to total; but, the best available statistics show that 12,400 elections have been held in local communities since repeal and, in 7,700 of these elections the drys have won.In two states, South Carolina and Oklahoma, very definite results were shown. The liquor traffic tried unsuccessfully again, in Oklahoma, to repeal that state’s constitutional prohibition. The state’s citizens vot­ed overwhelmingly dry. In South Carolina the vot­ers by referen­dum ordered their legislature to pass a state prohibition law. South Carolina has tried post-re­peal methods of Election Besidt control. Now its citizens say “Outright prohibition is tiie only answer. Several states are reported plan­ning attempts to secure outright prohibition, with church and tem­perance and welfare groups uniting for the fight against the well-financed liquor trade. Groups like the W.C.T.U. quote history to show that, after Ameri­ cans try all manner of legal regular tion, they always return to complete prohibition as the only feasible an­ swer to the evils of alcohol.- Drys Winning Hard Fight If all the citizens of the United States were asked today to- go to the polls and vote yes or no on whether the nation should return to constitutional prohibition, one out of every three persons would vote yes. Surprising as that may sound to some, it is a fact verified by the most .recent Gal­lup Poll. This sur­vey found 32 per cent of the people Wflling to go on record as ready to vote in favor of national prohi­bition, as com­ pared with only 30 per cent eight I Voter in 3 For Dry Laws years ago, according to Gallup's statistics. These figures indicate that there has been no rout of the temperance forces, that instead of losing-ground since repeal—as claimed in some quarters—they have more than held their own.Most Americans will probably be surprised to learn that those who would vote tomorrow for prohibition constitute such a substantial minor­ ity. One of the Gallup statisticians calculated that if all the persons calling themselves dry had voted for the prohibition candidate in the last national election he would have re­ceived about 16,000,000 votes.AU this indicates that only a com­paratively small shift in public opin­ ion is necessary in order to give the forces of temperance enough strength to go into battle on even terms. The rising tide of temperance sen­timent is shown in reports reaching NationalW.C.T.U. of new supporters of the dry cause. Slowly but sure­ ly, mass resent­ ment is beginning to be aroused in the American peo­ple at the heart­less efficiency with - which liquor sales promotion is carried on by the highly capitalized and effectively or­ganized liquor industry of today, re­taining all the evils of the old time saloon and adding many new ones. These Americans have given liq­uor a chance since repeal—with the eyer-more-evident result a convic­tion, based on their own observa­tion, that complete prohibition is the only real solution.

T hat we have become a great and m ighty nation in population and resources Is a positive fact; th at we have become desperately wicked in th e m eantim e is’ also a positive fact. It is true th at we have m any godly men and women in the nation, but when we com pare th e righteous w ith the wicked and ungodly we find th a t w e are far in the minor, ity. _W e m ight truthfully say that only a Temnant of our people are Christians. T he vast m ultitudes are worldly, proud, evil, sinful and wicked. T hey are bent ou going in the w rong direction. T hey are after gratifying th e flesh, w hich m eans evils of all kinds participa­ ted in. I t is liquor, beer, nicotine, dancing, frolicking, com m itting a- dultry, lying, cheating and defrau­ ding. T h e roadhouses, dance halls, movies, beer joints, liquor stores, sw im m ing pools, pleasure resorts, parks, race tracks, prize fights, gam bling dens, and places of evil, sin, vice and wickedness tak e the great throngs of our people, while the S unday school, prayer m eeting, preaching and religious services are attended Iqr the few.

" I f m y people, w hich are called by m y nam e, shall hum ble them selves and pray, and seek m y face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and w ill'fo r give their sin, and will heal their land.” (IIC h ro n . 7:14.)

BtjBeN A mes Williams y BEH AMEi WLU AM5 W< N< u. service CHAPTER S n - Continned —14— Peter's boat in fact drew near; and when he saw them watching, Peter call»d: “Well, Mary, you saw something today!” She felt suddenly pity for him, Blinking how crushed he would be when he knew the truth about his fatherhood, knew himself disowned by Captain Ira Corr. “That was fine,” she told him. “Wonderful!” “You have to know how to han­dle ’em,” he said complacently. 'There’s more to whaling than bull luck. Dick isn’t the only man aboard can kill a whale. Where is he?” "Gone to change his clothes,' Mary said; and as the boat came alongside George added: “His arm’s bruised. The flukes hit him.” Peter laughed. "Probably rub­bing liniment on it,” he said. He swung up to the deck. George called to Corkran:“Great job you did!”Corkran shook his head apologeti­ cally. “I went in too high with the jance, sir. Over his shoulder blade. If I’d got him right he wouldn’t have sunk.” “Good job, just the same,” George insisted. He and Mary went aft with Peter.Mary told George: ‘Tm worried about Richard. I’ll see if he's all right.” George nodded, and she went below. Bichard was in the common room, by the desk; and he had stripped off his shirt. When she appeared, he looked across at her in an abashed way. She saw his bewildered eyes, and then he said as though ashamed ef,his own weakness: N “Darned arm’s broken, Mary!” “Broken?” she echoed. He extended his left arm for her to see.She saw that it was swollen be­ tween elbow and wrist, already be­ginning to show a dark, discolored bruise. Also it was twisted in an unnatural way, the hand in the wrong position, as if put on by an awkward workman. Her breath caught with pity, and she touched Kis arm lightly. His eyes followed her fingers as they approached; but when they touched his skin, his eyes leaped to meet hers, and for a long moment their glances held, as : though each had been startled by some distant sound. She tried to speak, and shook her head without Imowing she did so, and ran to the foot of the com­ panionway and called: “George! Pe­ter! Richard’s arm’s broken. Come quick!”George was beside her In an in­ stant. Richard was leaning against the desk, grinning in rueful apology. “Makes me kind of faint,” he said. “Takes the pith out of me.” His lips were white with pain. Peter came below, asked sharply: “ What’s the matter?”George said: “His arm’s broken.” Richard tried to laugh. “Funny,” he said. “Joke on me.” -Peter took the arm in Jjoth hands, I feeling it, pressing with his fingers. “It’s broken all right,” he decided. uI can feel the ends scrape togeth­er.”Ridiard drawled: “So can I. Don’t play with them unless you get a special lot of fun out of it, Peter. Ifs no fun for me.” They all smiled. Mary could not ■peak. Richard was so strong and splendid, to stand thus weak and broken now. Her eyes burned with mshed tears. George reflected helplessly: “AU I' know about broken bones is. to keep them quiet till you get a doc­tor.” Mary whispered: “Can’t we go into port, somewhere?” No one. answered her. Their minds were dulled by this emergency. It was Richard who suggested calling Isaiah and Hiram. Isaiah volubly as­ sured them that he had set more broken arms than you could shake a stick at. “You go make a splint, Hiram,” he told the carpenter. “What we want is a couple flat pieces of ce­dar, ’bout so long and ’bout so wide.”Hiram went to obey, and Mary to tear some of her own garments into bandages. When they set the brokerf bone, she bit her-lip, watching Rich­ard’s mouth twitch , as they tugged at his arm. Isaiah and Peter held the arm stretched in position while Hiram laid on ..the splints and bound them in place and when the thing was done, Isaiah nodded in satis­ fied approval of his own work.“There ye be!” he said. “Month frojn now, Cap’n, you won’t know ii ever happened.” Richard protested: “A month?” VA month anyways. Yes, sure.” Mary asked: “Shouldn’t he have • sling?”Isaiah , shook his head:Richard, grinned at his ownplightr "Well, a fine lot of use I’ll i be around here for a While,” he said.! “Peter, you’re going to have to han­dle things.” Peter nodded carelessly. “Sure,” he agreed. “I’ll look out for you.” Befwe noon they sighted whales •gam; and Peter lowered, and Cork- ran got two irons home handsome- fcr-Peter himself Janced this whale as easily as killing, a chicken, and lie came. back to the ship, drunk, with swaggering with a new sense at power, n it blubber and tb* bon* were safe aboard by dark that night; and a great moon rose to silver the slippery, stained decks and pale the glare of the fires under the trypots. They had buoyed the whale which sank, and while they were cutting in and trying out this new kill, they stayed near the buoy. On the sec­ond morning they Saw the dead whale afloat, swollen-with gases. They brought it alongside too. De­spite the steady work, everyone aboard was in good humor; for one more whale, Richard said, would fill their last casks. They finished try­ing out, stowed the oil, scrubbed ship, cruised daily to and fro. But their luck did not repeat it­ self; they went day after day vigi­lant and- yet without success. On a steady westerly they moved down again toward Juan Fernandez, work­ing offshore for a while; and inac­tion began to weary them and fret the patience of every man aboard, till at last Richard decided to put in to Talcahuano. “We might strike oil at the Cape Verdes,” he said. “And if we don’t, we’ve done well enough. It’s time to be getting home.” There was, Mary would find, a surprising lot to be done by way of refitting. Richard warned her that rounding Cape Horn they were sure of cold weather; and she saw the saUors in their spare time on deck busy with mending and patching, preparing warm clothing for the high latitudes. And in the land locked harbor of Talcahuano the ship herself put on a new dress. Her old sails, patched and repatched and dingy with smoke, were unbent. The rigging was tested and repaired where repairs were needed, and freshly tarred. Richard bought bed Peter laughed. “Secret? Xoncan’t'keep a secret aboard ship.” cattle and had them butchered and the.meat salted down; he bought biscuit-'and molasses, tea and cof­fee; and fruits and vegetables were brought aboard. Richard himself went to a physician, who found it necessary to break Jiis arm afresh and reset it to prevent a malfor­mation; and in the reaction from' that ordeal, and in a rising im­patience to be at home, he decided to forego the chance of another whale. So the bricks of the try- iworks were thrown , overboard, the pots stowed below, the. sheathing on deck and at the gangway removed; and early in December, stripped and fit, the .Venturer was ready. Feik and Barbo left .them at Tal-. cahuano. Feik’s illness had'passed within a few days; but the two is­ landers, found a chance to sign.on the Nancy Drake, a bark bound westward,' which had put in here for repiairs after a rough time off the Horn.' So Richard paid them off, and he did not fill their places. To work ship he had men enough. Soon after noon one day the Venturer put to sea. The next morning Mary rose and went on deck to view the day as though it were something new. and beautiful, never seen before. She was completely happy; but before the day ended, her world Iuid changed. She was in her cabin alone, George and the others all .on deck; and she began to put her things in order, as though it were already time to pack to go ashore. So do­ing, she remembered the pearls Ja- rambo. had given her. And ,looking for . them, found they weregone.

' Certainly he held him­ self to no strict rule of honorable conduct, since Mary came aboard the Venturer he had wooed her who was George’s .wife.. Yet . this consideration, which might have damned him, actually persuaded Mary Qt last that he was innocent. Sha was woman enough to understand that Peter—or any other man—might love her; and she was woman enough to forgive Peter.But she was sure at last that, loving her, he would never have stolen her pearls. Who, then? Feik might have taken the pearls before he and Barbo left the ship at Talcahuano; and Mary hoped he had! If he had them, they and the •thief were gone.' But of the men still aboard, there remained only Rannels. Mat Forbes’ harpooner was a fat young man, with a decep­tive fatness that had strength be­ hind it. There was something shifty about Rannels. Thinking of Rannels made her suddenly afraid, and as much to re­assure herself as from any real conviction, she decided that Peter had found the pearls and had put them in some .place of greater se­curity. But when she asked him whether this were true, he shook his head. “I’ve never seen them since you showed them to me,” he declared. “Where were they hidden?" She told him, and he listened, frowning soberly. “I’d have thought they’d be safe t*we,” he admitted. “Did Richard know about them?” “He knew I had them, but not where they were.” She added: “I hope it was Feik. I hope he’s got them, hope they’re gone.” Peter chuckled. “I don't,” he pro­tested. “I liked the Idok of them. If anybody gets them, I’d like to be the one. I’m betting they’re still aboard.” “I think we ought to ten Rich­ ard,” she decided. “If they’re aboard, whoever has them, it might mean trouble. But I don’t want George to know about them unless he has to.” Later she reported the disappear­ance of the pearls to Richard. He said good-humoredly: “Shucks, you probably took them yourself, hid them somewhere else; and now you’ve forgotten where.” “You must think I’m an idiot!” She was at once hurt and angry. “Sure you didn’t?” “Of course Fm sure.” “Then it was probably Feik,” he decided. He frowned. “Now, I’m wondering if that barrel of amber­ gris is still in the cabin stores. I’ll have a Iook and see.”- -The ambergris was safe; and noth­ing new happened to alarm them; but there was after that day an added vigilance in Richard’s man­ner. He kept a more watchful eye upon the men, and went out of his way and outside any real need to keep them busy. He was forever shifting sails, trying .this way «nd that to get greater speed out of the Venturer. In the end it became necessary to tell George about .the.pearls. Mal^ and Richard and Peter were apt to discuss the pearls whenever two or all three-of them were together and out of reach .of. other ears;, and a man less sensitive than George must Jiave seen that he, .was excluded from ' some secret' - which; they shared..He was for, a while too proud to confess that he saw this. But in the end'he questioned .Pe­ter: “I’ve had an i idea you, Maiy and Richard haVe a .secret between you.” Peter laughed. “Secret?. You can’t keep a secret aboardship. No. Don’t you worry, George!” ,.he ,urged. “Richard’s all right, and so’s Mary. Of course, it would go tci any man’s head- the way she. looks at him; but they’ll be all right once we’re ashore.” George said after a moment: “I trust Mary, and'-’Richata too, of course. Ctaly I’ve wondered, some* times.” “Here, Fll show you you’re wrong.” Peter spoke easily ; he took George by the arm, led him across to the other side of the deck And forward, so that they wqiild ap­proach Richard and Mary unseen, from behind. “We’ll get near enough to hear what they’re- saying,” he proposed. But George stopped. "No,” he said curtly. ‘Tm. not a spy!” Be­fore Peter could urge him/ he called to Mary, still some distance from them.He called her .name, and there was. a note of warning -in his voice. That call startled Aer, made her turn with guilty cheeks; for when she had:followed'Richard forward, she.was thin king, of his forbearance toward Peter, and when they! were alone, on sudden impulse she ;said. “Isaiah fold me-Peter’s not really your brother, Richard."Hesaidin.alowtone: aTdhave Isaiah whipped for that, if he weren’t old enough to bie my grand- hither.” “Everyone, will know when we get home.”, . »"Richard shookhlaA#ad.“No, they won’t! Not even Peter, it Isaiah, aad- Hiram keep 'their mouths' shut. I’m going to; have the lawyers1 tear up Father’s will, or else I’ll take Peter in as- partner. -He can run things ashore.” “I haven’t seven. toldGeorge.” “Don’t,” he urged. “If. Pet^r knew about it, it wouldknock him all to pieces, Mary.”; “I won’t, of course. I noticed in t&V log one-night that your father never called Peter his son; but he always did you. He was gretty proud of you, of course.” (TOBBCONTimiSBt. FIRST-AID to the AILING HOUSE BBO by R oger B. W hitm an (© 'Roger B. W hitman—WNU Service.) Space Around Pipes QUESTION: What do you recom­ mend to close up the space be­tween pipes coming up into a room, <and the floor? In our apartment there is a space between the floor and the hot and cold water pipes, also the radiator pipes, which I would , like to seal up. Ttie cqjlars around the pipes are not sufficient. Answer: Because of the varying temperatures and vibrations in the pipes it is not possible to fill these spaces with cement of any kind. A piece of canvas cut to fit around the pipe might help. Tack one edge of it down to the floor, and tie the other edge around the pipe. Coat the Cgnvas with white lead paste. Leaky Cellar Question: In our new house w» ter leaks into the basement from underneath the floor along the joint between floor and walls. Can this be stopped with waterproof cement? If so, will the water spoil the con­crete in remaining permanently un­ der the floor and around the foun­dation during the wet season? There is no sewer and no place for drain­age. Answer: If the. level of your cellar floor is below the natural ground wa­ ter level during the wet season, the only remedy is to apply membrane waterproofing inside the cellar. This consists of a layer or two of water­proof felt, stuck down with liquid asphalt, and held in place by four inches of reinforced concrete. The waterproofing should go up the walls to the outside ground level. Other­ wise, lay drain tile under the floQr around the edges, ending in a pit from which the water is automati­cally removed by a sump pump. Paint After Whitewash Question: A wooden wall in my ceilar was whitewashed. I washed off the whitewash, and then, after the wood dried, put on two coats of inside oil paint. The paint softened and would not stay on. What was the reason, and what can I do about it?Answer: Although you took off the whitewash on the surface, some of the lime of which it was made, soaked into the wood and remained. This lime affected the ojls of the paint and destroyed them. After taking off the whitewash you should have rinsed the wall with a solution of zinc sulphate crystals in water; two pounds to the gallon. This would have neutralized the lime, and the paint would not. have been harmed. To apply this solution you must first remove the paint that remains. Removing Wallpaper Question: I have been toying to remove wallpaper in my living-room by soaking it with water; but the water seems to have no effect. What else can I use that will loosen the paper and lei me take it off?, Answer: Your wallpaper musthave a varnished or Ather water­ proof finish. To take it off, go over it with coarse sandpaper wrapped around a block of wood, so that this finish will4 be cut.' Water will then be «ble to-penetrate to the paste. Begin soaking the wallpaper at one end of a wall, using a whitewash brush or large sponge, and work on the other end. TOieh return to where you began, and repeat Continue until the water has soaked and . the paste has been softened. If the paper sticks, scrape with a broad putty knife. Wallpapering Question: My summer cottage is about 60 years old, but in, good, con­dition. The living ,room and lower bedroom need papering. The old £>aper; is quite smooth' and'tight. Iiiust I remove it, or can the new paper be stuck on over it? Answer: Yes, you can apply new paper over the old, providing the old paper is in .good condition and is on tightly. The old paper; will have to be sized first, of course. There is always the slight chance that the paste.for the new.paper may strike through and loosen the paste of the old paper, in which case both old and new papers may toll off. Qoeistioins on Painting Question: A correspondent ,asks if any of the following jobs. can be done when temperatures are below freezing: Cold water painting inside of a cabin. Whitewashing outside. Oil painting and puttying inside and out. Outside plastering. ’ , Answer: Any material or paint containing water or mixed with wa­ ter should not be used when. tem­peratures are at' or below the freez­ing point. Cold, water paint or White­wash can be, applied when the tem­ perature is above freezing, -but oil paint will not give satisfactory re­ sults if applied, at temperatures be­low, 50. The. same, applies to putty. Heating Odor .‘ Question:. From .the..start of the heating season,' - my Vtexfant». com­plain of an odor coming from the steam ,radiators. Gleaning, com­pound in ttie. boiler does not stop it. Answer: That odor;,comes from repeated heating .of ,dust that , has collected on the lower part of .the radifttor. In time, the dust may beconvertedintoa hard crust. I have.known of cases in:'which in- sects: and. even dead mice contribut­ed to.such Sn odor. The remedy is to: clean the radiators, and espe­cially the lower part.

WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK N 1 B y L EM U EL F . PA R T O N (Consolidated Features—WNU Service.) [EW YORK--In his book, “Man the Unknown,” published in 1935, Dr. Alexis Carrel revealed profound misgivings as to whether; _ _ , , any existing!Dr. Carrel Charts patterns of Human Behavior political or- AmidNaziM isery f^r^couM meet the requirements of a stable and humane civilization. He urged collective and concentrated scientif­ic inquiry into the nature of the “whole man,” and possibly of the organic quality of human society. The particularized knowledge of physiology and medicine he found inadequate to supply this under­standing. When he went to France recently he found a clinic and laboratory for his continued studies with the “whole man” caught In totalitarian misery, and in a wide context of spiritual and emotional stress—a zone of social pathology no doubt revealing to Dr. Carrel’s deeply searching and penetrating eye. Jnst why the Nazi overlords of France should want to keep him there, as reported in dis­patches, is a mystery. There is no evidence that the Nazis ad­ mire him. He has been no apol­ogist for their flagrantly unsci­ entific and inhumane doings, and if they expect to commandeer his profound knowledge of nntri- ( tion, medicine and surgery, it is difficult to understand how they may expect co-operation. Dr. Carrel, a keen, compact, round-headed little Frenchman, will be 68 years old next month. The world knows of his 34 years with the Rockefeller Institute for Med­ical Research, the marvels he has wrought, including his 29-year-old living chicken heart, his distin­ guished contributions to medical science during the World war, and his fashioning of the mechanical heart with the co-operation of Charles A. Lindbergh., IiTthe last few years he has been preoccupied with the range of hu­man behavior lying outside and be­yond medical knowledge. He visions some kind of government by a scientific elite. On August 14, 1939, just before the guns blazed, he said that civilized men must "pool their brains,”. or come to ultimate failure and.then added: “Our Amer­ica, with its democratic ideal, is based on ideologies of the- Eight­eenth century. If we used scientific concepts instead of ideologies, we might discover a new way of life.” UARRY WINSTON started sub-dividing real estate, but now sub-divides diamonds and finds itmore profitable.

It is one of the most jittery jobs of diamond manicuring ever attempted, but so far is going nicely. It took them a month and seven days to make this small, but lucrative beginning, working on the third largest diamond in the world. It will take 15 months to finish the cnt- ting, with a phosphorous-bronze blade .0035 of an inch in thick­ness. Reared in Los Angeles, Mr. Winston learned, the jewelry busi­ness with his father. Returning to New York, after a stretch in the AEF in the World war, he decided the war and its aftermath would imperil all values except those of durable old Mother Earth her­self. Land—that was the thing, in days of threatened inflation and social maladjustment. So he went into the real estate business in New York. The more he worked at it, .the more safe, sound and conservative seemed the glitter of a diamond—even if traditionally baleful. He opened a wholesale jewelry business in New York and soon was gathering in 6ome of the biggest and showiest diamonds in the world. He paid $900,000 for the Jonkers diamond of 185 carats and $700,000: for the' Vargas stone. F)R. TOYOHIKO KAGAWA/ •^Japan’s frail little Mahatma TUandhif evangelist of world, brother'- hood and leader of the Christians in Japan, is in New York, in further­ance of the newly organized Church of Japan, which he helped to estab­ lish. He expresses surprise at talk of war with Japan and sees ahead a world church union which will end all wars. A tubercular little man, Dr. Kagawa has suffered jail, persecution, poverty and illness. He preaches a merger , of Christianity and capitalistic -economics.

Tim Holt, young star of BKO Westerns, and his father, Jack Holt, will be seen togeth­er with Victor Mc- Laglen and Ed­mund Lowe in the RKO production, “The Marines Are Ready.” They’ll ap­pear as father and son'for the second time on the screen. The first time was 12 years ago, when Tim, a boy of 10, played the son in his faiher’s star- “Vanishing Pioneers.” a skilled' polo player.

Between the scenes in the house­ boat dining salon-that, you’ll see in Paramount’s “Nothing But the Truth,” Bob Hope, Edward Arnold, Leif Erikson and Glenn Anders were amusing themselves :by filling the crystal goblets to different levels with water, then playing chimes on them with silver spoons. The prop man nearly had a fit—seems the glasses were part of a dinner serv­ ice worth more than $2,000.“Send over to my house for some­thing less expensive,” urged Hope. “Our goblets are cottage-cheese glasses!” Years ago Ruby Keeler was fa­mous on Broadway for her dancing, in. the days before she married Al Jol- son. On the screen she danced along with other people; now she’ll dance alone for the first time in pictures in a musical, “Sweet­ heart of the Cam­pus,” in which she shares . top honors with Harriet Hil­ liard, Gordon Oli­ver, and Ozzie Nel­son and his orchestra. Miss Keeler was a star at the Texas Guinan night club when a lad named George Raft used to stop the show with a skating Charleston. Charles Boyer finished his work in Paramount’s “Hold Back the Dawn” and took a train for the East; after a week’s vacation he planned to go to Montreal, where he will do a se­ries of plays in French, proceeds going to British war relief funds. Virginia Weidler's become soloist with a band; she’s spending all her time between her scenes in “Barna­ cle Bill” practicing in her dressing room. The band belongs to her three brothers, and has made a name for itself playing at country club dances. — Larry Parks, young Group Thea­ter actor, played the Robert Mont­ gomery. part In tests with other ac­tors seeking the starring role in “Heaven Can Wait”; as a result he’ll have a featured part in the forthcoming Paul KelIy-Lola Lane “Mystery Ship.” If. you’ve seen "The Lady Eve” you’ll remember those slapstick falls of Henry Fonda’s long after you forgot the plot of the picture. Preston Sturges, who wrote and di­rected the picture, is also responsi­ ble for “Sullivan’s Travels”—and he started right off by dropping Joel McCrea from -a rope’s- end into a barrel of water. Furthermore, Mc- Crea had to wear a tramp’s rags and a five-day beard. Veronica Lake is McCrea’%co-star in this newest of the Sturges comedies. They say it will be as funny as “The Lady Eve.” — *— Marlene Dietrich has selected the five men who, she says, have the most , “womanpower”—she doesn’t say what she means by that, except that it’s the opposite of “manpow­ er.” Anyway, here’s the list—Clark Gable, Orson Welles, Ernest Hem­ingway, Erich Maria Remarque and Howard Hughes.

PROGRESS IN WORLD MISSIONS LESSOtt TEXT—Acts 13:44-52; GalatiaM 3:26-29.GOLraiN TEXT—For ye are all the chil­ dren ol God by faith in Christ Jesus.— GalaUans 3:26. “All people” are included in .God’s plan of redemption. Whenthe angel of the Lord announced the birth of Christ to the shepherds he said, “Fear not: for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to afi people” (Luke 2:10). The invitation is: “Let him that isathirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely" (Rev. 22:17). The disciples natural­ly and properly first preached the gospel to. the Jews; but the time came when God was ready to send them to fee Gentiles, , that they too might hear the message of redemp­ tion. That historic turning point is found in our lesson. A3 Paul and his fellow workers proceeded from Paphos on fee isle of Cyprus to fee mainland with feeir message ,of Christ’s redemption, they met both I. Popularity and Persecution (Acts .13:44, 45). In the synagogue of Antioch of Pisidia they, were invited to preach, and Paul was blessed in the presen­ tation of a powerful gospel message. Read it in Acts 13:16-41. It met with such a response that the people “be­ sought that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath" (v. 42). Bo great was the popularity of Paul’s message that the whole city came the next Sabbath, “to hear the Word’ of Gpd.” What a won­ derful sight feat must have been and how the disciples must have re­ joiced as they preached the Word. But writ—there’s a worm in that red apple of popularity, and its name is jealousy (v. 45). It caused the Jews to blaspheme as they con­ tradicted Paul’s preaching,. Jeal­ousy always makes a fool out of the one who yields to it. Yet this green- eyed monster is permitted to go right on destroying, hindering, hurt­ing. In the church and the home, as well as in the social order, we let jealousy , come in, and wreck friendship, break'down reputations, yes, even block the work of God. May someone learn the lesson of our text and turn away from that evil way—right nowl • H. Rejection and Acceptance (Acts 13:46-52). AU through the record of Scriptuie and the history of man to this day we find some rejecting the grace of God—others accepting. Those who reject only prove themselves “un­worthy of eternal life” (v. 46) and are themselves rejected of God. The disciples now turn from the Jews to minister to the Gentiles, even as had been prophesied (Isa. 42:6; 49:6; Luke 2:31, 32). They accepted , the word of trutfr and “were glad, and glorified the word of God.” Rejection broughteternal death, , but acceptance brought1 eter­ nal life and joy.' They could not keep the good news to themselves, but had to spread it abroad. A liflhted candle begins at once to shine. A redeemed soul Jongs to bring others to Christ. Persecution continued; in fact, was intensified to the point of physical ejection, of . the disciples. Were they downhearted? No! for the joy of the Lord filled their Holy Spirit-filled lives. - Being filled wife fee Spirit means being' filled with joy, even in fee midst of persecution. It really works! Have you given God a chance to prove it in your life? IIL Neither Jew nor Greek (Gal. 3:26, 27). This selection from the letter which Paul wrote some ten years later to the people of* the area in which he had now preached reveals fee same truth, that faith in Christ is primary—and essential—in Chris­ tian experience.In this, eariy life we : recognize distinctions based on nationality, sex, social position, aad many other grounds. While these are overem­phasized by most people, they are legitimate and necessary distinc­ tions. But in Christ-rah! there the differences disappear! We are aU one in Him (v. 28). This is a lesson which we have not learned even yet, but our slowness of heart and mind does not alter God’s truth. The: church is talking much these days .about ecumenicity, which in jdam .WUrds means .the unity of , the people of fee various branches of the church all over the world. All too often,, however, the proposed basis M unity rests on a surrender or 'a partial surrender of what Paul de­clares tobethe. essential (fee.sine qua non if you wish), which is faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. No other unity but that which centers in Him, and a personal relationShip to Him, in sufficient either for this life or for the life to come. Wonders of God God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform;He plants His footstep in the sea And rides upon the storm.—William Cowper. H and-C rocheted H at, Bag Sets, T o Be P o p u lar T his Sum m er; By GHERIE NICHOLAS ! .S OW that dame fashion has given ’ a high rating to hand-crocheted garments, it behooves every style- minded Woman to stop, look and lis­ ten to what is being said and done in regard to this very smart trend. Via a simple crochet hook, a spool or so of crochet cotton, or perhaps a . skein or so of washable cotton yarn, lovely-to-look-at styles may be made.You could search everywhere and it would be difficult to. find anything more fetching in hat' and bag sets than the masterpieces in crochet artistry such as here pictured. Even if you have never crocheted be­fore, with a little application and a willingness to “live and learn,” you can crochet for yourself a whole col­ lection of accessory items every bit as pretty and wearable as feose here shown. A fascinating pastime you will find it, too, for the work is easy and die cost of crochet cot­tons low.Doesn’t the very sight of the cun­ning fashions illustrated make your fingers fairly tingle to crochet-and crochet until you have acquired a number of accessories to wear with your summer outfits? 1 Have you ever tried crocheting with heavy cotton rug yam, boilfast and washable. The work just speeds along. In no time you can finish a new hat and bag. The at­ tractive high-crowned turban-and- bag twosome shown to the left in the picture is crocheted of heavy white cotton rug yam. It also comes in colors. You will be sur­prised and delighted at how. quickly this set can be made. There’snoth- ing intricate or tedious,about it!For the star-trimmed crochet pill­box and matching round bag to the right, use mercerized cotton thread. The star detail is somewhat mili­tary in effect, as so many fashions are this summer. Mercerized cot­ton thread was used also for the beret in the inset below. Note the colorful crochet emblem which adorns the front of the crown.Describing other attractive cro­ chet themes, a prim little Gibson sailor is worth noting. It is cro­cheted of mercerized cotton in a firm, even, single stitch and is so manipulated it keeps in perfect shape. A cluster of crochet berries in self color is its only trim. Be assured this sailor is very good look­ ing.As clever a headpiece as any mod­em school girl would want is the “pigtail'calot.” It is really very similar to fee popular schoolgirl “beanie” and is worn on the back of-the head, in exactly. Uie same manner. The . novel and amusing part is a long braid of yam feat starts from fee crown center of the calot and dangles to the waist1 in back, just like a Chinaman’s pig­tail. To add more interest, the braided yam is tied with a hair ribbon in school-girl-fashion.If it is a lace-trimmed hat you: want, it may be crocheted in a lacy open-work stitch-.and when'finished, - sforched very stiff. !Released by Western Newspaper Union.)

Voters Say “No* To Liqumr Baoh year in Inertatiiig num btr of A m trIcant dacldt th t liquor quta- tlon for themselvM by m aking tht liquor traffic Illegal in their citiea or countiea.Thtst hard-headed American citi­zen! seem to bt coming out from under tht delusion* foitered by Uglw powered propaganda during tht liquor-inspired fight on national pro­hibition. Thqr look around their own neigh­borhoods, mull ovtr the easily visi­ ble effects of Ilq- m m h f v . uor on parents, on car drivers and on youth, and than they decide —as their parents were forced to decide early in XSSSSSliquor control is a resounding "no” at the ballot box.Not much gets into flit press about tht number of wet-dry tlto- tions held each year in a score or more of states. The results of these elections are difficult to total; but, the best available ' statistics show that 12,400 elections have been held in local communities since repeal and, in 7,700 of these elections 'tht drys have won.In two states, South Carolina and Oklahoma, very definite results were shown. The liquor traffic tried unsuccessfully again, in Oklahoma, to repeal that state’s constitutional prohibition. The state’s citizens vot­ed overwhelmingly dry. In South Carolina the vot­ers by referen­dum o rd trtd their legislaturt to pass a state prohibition law. South Carolina has tried post-re­peal methods of EIectionBesidt control. Now its citizens say “Outright prohibition is the only answer.” Several states art reported plan­ning attempts to secure outright prohibition, with church and tem ­perance and welfare groups uniting for the fight against tht well- financed liquor trade. Groups like the W.C.T.U. quote history to show that, after Ameri­cans try all manner of legal regula­ tion, they always return to complete prohibition as the only feasible an­swer to the evils of alcohoL Drys Winning Hard Fight If all the citizens of the United States were asked today to go to the polls and vote yes or no on whether the nation should return to constitutional prohibition, one out of every three persons would vote yes.Surprising as that may sound to some, it is a fact verified by the most recent Gal­lup Poll. This sur­ vey found 32 per cent of the people willing to go on record as ready to vote in favor of national prohi­bition, as com* pared with only VrtertoS 30 per cent eight or "**• ■ years ago, according to Gallup’s statistics.These figures indicate that there has been no rout of the temperance forces, that instead of losbig ground since repeal—as claimed in some quarters—they have more than held their own. Most Americans will probably be surprised to leaxn that those who would vote tomorrow for prohibition constitute such a substantial minor­ity. One of the Gallup statisticians calculated that if all the persons calling themselves dry had voted for the prohibition candidate In the last national election he would have re­ ceived about 16,000,000 votes.AU this indicates that only a com­ paratively small shift in public opin­ion is necessary in order to give the forces of temperance enough strength to go into battle on even terms. The rising tide of temperance sen­ timent is shown in reports reaching NationalW.C.T.TJ. of new supporters of the dry cause. Slowly but sure­ ly, mass resent­ment is beginning to be aroused in the American peo­ple at the heart- with which liquor sales promotion is carried on by tilt highly capitalized and effectively or­ganized liquor industry of today, re­ taining all the evils of the old time saloon and adding many new ones. These Americans have giyen liq­uor a chance since repeal—with the ever-more-evident result a convic­tion, based, on their own observa­ tion, that complete prohibition is tht only real solution. less efficiency WRITE A W ANTAD CASH IN ON SIVFF IN THE riLL B U Y TH AT SHOT­ GUN n o w * I so ld so m e K ^ - STU FF FROM IH B ATHC Ira WITH A WAKIT SeQ-W hite Elephants* .BarWliatYoa Waul! * fH y w o n * y ?

W hen we think of w hat is being spent to kill men w ith, and w hat is being spent to save them w ith, it is absolutely fearful.. T he nations of earth are literally spending billions upon top of billions to fight, slay and kill each other w ith, while we are spending a few m illions of dol. Iarsto save m ankind. In other words we ace spending dollars to kill m ankind w ith ,1 and to send tbeir souls Into^terhity unprepared to m eet A lm ighty G'od, while we are spending pennies to spread the Gospel of full salvation over tbe earth to win men to C hrist and to save them -from hell. H ow awful to contem plate! W e are going to be taxed to death now to finance' this horrible war, w hich is and will run into billions of dollars, and perhaps the loss of m illions of lives and the dam nation of m illions of souls, while the .na­ tion spends a little pittance, com' parative speaking, to save men from sin and the devil and a yaw n­ ing hell. W e know this is a- posi. tive fact, and there is no use of de nying it. Poor hum anity, when shall we ever come 'to onr right senses? T h e m ore we educate, and leave God out of it, the worse we become. T he m ore m oney we make, likewise leaving God out of our in­ dividual life, and out of onr nat­ ional and international life, the worse we become. T h e m ore dan­ gerous m en are. T he m ore blood­ thirsty and ferocious they become. I t seems beyond hum an. Certainly, absolutely, positively. N o created being on earth is so cruel as men in ,sin and wickedness, possessed w ith the fiendish pow ers of the devil. A s long as men and nations spend billions of dollars w ith w hich to kill, and a little pittance w ith which to save, we are going , to witness heartache, sorrow , bloodshed, dis­ tress of nations, w ith perplexity dam nation and destruction. W hat this nation needs, and all nations, is a m ighty contrition before Al m ighty G od, deep and thorough repentence, and the spending of o u r m eans to save m ankind with and not to kill them . I believe it was Sherm an who said, “ W ar J s hell.” T here is a w orld of tru th in this expression. It pleases the devil for us to spend billions w ith w hich to kill men, and penntes to save them w ith.

The country is certainly in no con­ dition to stand abnorm at price infla­ tion now. It is to the credit of. thinking: farm ers th at they have long realized this. The m arketing cooperates, for instance, have made I t a point to work for the consumer, no less than for the pitaducer. A. fair and reasonable price- for farm products does nbt necessarily mean exorbitant prices to the buyer. Karm groups have long worked w ith m er­ chandising groups to this end. Great­ e r efficiency in production and dis­ tribution will, in itself, do -much to solve the farm price problem; and the leading m arketing cooperatives are m aking constant progress in that d irection—Ex.

PA R TO N (Consolidated Features-W N U Service.) XTEW YORK—It isn’t only the ’ heat that is good news for soda-jerkers. It is an alumnus of theirguild who develops a 57-passengeri- a j t L transportEx-SodaJerker plane gait_ NowPoaraOat ed at 35 0 SZ-IdanPlaaea m iles perhour, and gets an order for 40 of them, right away quick. The man from behind the counter is 36-year-old Jack Frye, president of the Transcontmental & Western Air, Inc., for the last six years. He has been merging air com­ panies- the- way he ambidex- trously merged raspberry flips— up through the depression years to the status of a high-rating aviation mogul. His new plane, the largest commercial land plane ever projected, will have a flying range of 4,000 miles and a ceiling of 30,000 feet. He says his fleet of 40 of these planes could hustle 16,000 troops into Alaska in 36 hours. Bom in Sweetwater, Okla., Mr. Frye grew up and did his soda- jerking in California. He nicked each pay check for something for the kitty, to buy into aviation. His first investment was in a series of flying lessons. He and his instruc­tor then bought a battered old war veteran Curtiss Jenny and made it the nucleus of a flying school and an aerial taxi service. Standard Air Lines came later when two students, Fanl E. Richter and Walter A. Hamilton joined young Mr. Frye in estab­ lishing it, operating between Los Angeles and Phoenix, Ariz. As one thing led to another, as they bought and merged companies, his associates moved along with him and became executives of the T.W.A. Mr. Richter shared his last notable acquisition of aviation stock, when, in April, 1929, T.W.A. took over about 70,- 000 shares of the Lehman Bros, holdings in T.W.A. at two points above the market. Mr. Frye has kept right on flying as well as designing and financing airplanes, and in 1934 set up a rec­ ord in crossing from Los Angeles to Newark in 11 hours and 31 min­utes. Thirty-six years is young for a mogul. Last January, he married Helen Varaer Vanderbilt. pOMMANDER Edward EUsberg’snew novel, “Captain Paul,” thefictional narrative of the life of JohnPaul Jones, is another reminder of a al • a AmericanAnother W ntm g penchant for Man Doablea aa doubling in A Fighting Man writing andfighting. We have had Gen. Lew Wallace, with “Ben Hur,” “Captain King” and all his other bell-ringing stories; Maj. JohnyThomasen, of the marines, au­thor of “Fix Bayonets,” and many other books and short stories and one of the best writing men of the country, regardless of weight or class; and of course Maj. Gen. “Hap” Arnold of the air corps, au­ thor of the long string of "Bruce” stories. As to Commander Ellsberg, his New Book is one of an in­creasing number of his imprint which get loud applause from the critics. His spectacular-feat ' in raising the submarine S-51, oS Block island in 1925 first brought him to national atten­tion. His first book, “On the Bottom,” told the story of the S-51. Thereafter came “Pig- boats,” "Thirty Fathoms Deep,” “Hell on Ice,” “Men Under Bie Sea,” and many short stories and magazine articles. He is now a United States navaL re­serve officer; He was born in Hartford, in 1896, the son of a ..Russian Jewish immi­grant. Young Ellsberg went to An­ napolis, where he was graduated at the head of his class.His eminence in engineering is comparable to his literary reputa­tion. He attended the Yale School of Naval Architecture, after his graduation from Annapolis and in the World war got a fast running start into bis career by refashion­ ing interned German ships for trans­ports. He is short, compact, square­ ly built, with an outthrust jaw, and always stirred by keen intellectual interests. ■^JEVER an engineer, metallur- gist, financier or salesman, Walter S.

The favorite of all men is a good tasty meat pie—so the suggestion for the . mam course is a delicious individual , meat pie. Dad doesn’t like to bother much with side dishes of salad, so place his salad right-on the plate with the rest of the meal. He likes a cole slaw stuffed tomato. Buttered carrots and peas are the■ vegetables. Because he is so fond of blueberries, it’s blueberry muf-■ fins to go with the meal, and blue­berry ice cream cake for dessert.This week’s menu is properly bal­ anced for nutritional value.

THIS WEEK’S MENU Chilled Mixed Fruit Juices tIndividual Lamb Pies Buttered Carrots and Peas tBlueberry Muffins Butter Tomato and Cole SIaw Salad French Dressing tBlueberry Ice Cream Cake tRecipes given. LYNN SAYS: Dad’s day might be the one day when Dad would really like to try his hand in the kitchen. How about some feathery light biscuits to go with dinner? They’re an easy trick if you just put out the ingredients for Dad, along with one of those big bowls and a spoon. Now sift 2 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons of baking pow­ der, and Yz teaspoon of salt. Cut in 4 tablespoons' of shortening, and then add about Yi of a cup. of milk gradually.1 Stir until a soft dough is formed, not too long, though, or the biscuits will be tough. Turn the dough on a slightly floured board, pat to a tfc-inch thickness, and cut with, a floured biscuit cutter. Pop them into a hot oven (450 degrees) on an ungreased baking sheet for 10-, 15 minutes. Dad will probably like the large biscuits, so better give him the large cutter. The recipe will make about 12 bis­cuits of that size, or 16 of the smaller ones. Can’t you just, see him beaming over a plate of hot, flaky bispuits he, made all by himself? Butter Pastry. IYi cups flour Yi teaspoon salt Yi teaspoon baking powder % cup butter 3 to 5 tablespoons milk Mix and sift the Sour, salt and baking powder. Cut in the butter with two knives or ru.b in with the fingertips. Add milk slowly, tossing the mixture together lightly and use only enough milk to hold the ingre­dients together.tBIueberry Muffins. 2 cups sifted flour 4 teaspoons baking powder 2 tablespoons sugar Yi teaspoon salt 2 eggs, beaten 1% cups milk3 tablespoons melted butter I cup blueberries.Sift dry ingredients together.

Arrange them in a bowl tossed together or separately arranged with carrots in the center and peas sur­ rounding toe carrots.The dessert had better be served in a rather deep dessert dish. Place a square of cake in each dish, then top with a ball of ice cream. Over all: pour toe rich looking blueberry . sauce. ,Prepare this dessert just ,before it is to be served.

FIBST JERUSALEM CONFER- ENCE ON WORLD MISSIONS IjESSON TEXT—Acts 15:6*21. GOLDEN TEXT—B ut we believe th at through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ w e sfcaH b e s a ved, even as they.—A cts 15:11» The conference on missions in Jerusalem was: not toe result of an appeal to a ruling church organiza­tion for a decision, but rather a gath­ ering of toe beievers from Antioch with those in Jerusalem to confer regarding a serious difference of opinion. The earliest converts to Christianity . were Jews, who had, come by- toe -way of Judaism into their new faith in Christ. But now, through the preaching of Paul and Barnabas, certain Gentiles bad be­lieved in Christ. ’ Their new-found joy was soon beclouded by a theo­logical problem. Certain teachers from Judea (Acts 15:1) declared that toe Gentiles were not saved un­less they came into the Christian faith the way of toe fullfillment of toe Jewish law. Paul and Barnabas at once realized tbat this was I. The Vital Question—Is Salva­ tion by Grace or Works? (w. 7-11; see also w. 1-5). Paul and his fellow workers had rightly apprehended God’s plan of salvation apart from works of the law. Paul realized that toe entire future of the gospel ministry was in a sense dependent on the solution of this problem. Christianity is the only religious faith in toe world that presents justification by grace as toe way oi redemption; all others follow (more or less) toe path of salvation by works. The question now was: Shall works of the law be mingled with grace—can Jesus Christ alone save men, or is salvation through Jesus Christ plus something else? . How was such a serious question to be settled? Should argument and strife be permitted to go on until toe stronger party prevailed? Better judgment indicated the desirability of a friendly discussion and a joint decision with the. believers at Jeru­salem. This was H. The Christian Solution—Coun­cil Rather Than Controversy (w. 6, 7, 12-18). There may .be times when it be­ comes the duty of toe Christian worker to take an uncompromising stand for the truth of God and refuse to be moved, come what may. But certainly there should be no such spirit in dealing with differing in­terpretations of Scripture on toe part of sincere and earnest Christian brethren. HoW much would be gained in toe Church today if, in­ stead of magnifying differences and permitting personal desires and am­ bitions to intervene, men were will­ing to sit down in the spirit of Christ . around toe tables of Christian coun­cil and brotherhood, presided over and directed by toe Holy Spirit (see Acts 15:28). Observe toe full measure of lib­ erty in discussion, the attentive listening to the~ messages of toe brethren. Note alsothattoerewere no secret sessions of a "steering committee” and nb’ "steamroller” tactics. The whole question was honestly and carefully considered by the council at Jerusalem, with the result that there was a vindication of the preachers of God’s grace. - James finally, spoke, giving the conclusion to which toe Holy Spirit bad led .the conference (see v. 28). Here for' all toe future we have KL The God-Given Answer-SaL Vatian Is by Grace (vv. 19-21; see also w. 22-35). In his epistle to the’ Ephesians (Eph. 2:8, 9), Paul succinctly states this truth: “By grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of your­selves: it is toe gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” The teaching of Scripture is very plain on this point, and we do well to receive it in all its beauty and grace. Let us observe, however, that the decision in Jerusalem, while it laid no further burden On these Gentile believers (v. 28), did quite properly require of them that, as those who had been saved by grace, they must "walk, in newness of life” (Rom. 6:4) which they had in Christ. Paul bad toe same thought in mind when he supplemented Ephesians 2:8 and 9 with verse 10, declaring that God has ordained that we should' walk ‘in good works.” . There are two opposite tendencies (both of which are wrong) in this matter,' which consistently hurt the Qiristian church. The one which we have already stressed tries to mix works with grace, making salvation either entirely or partially by works. Sdd to say, some who have sought to avoid this error have gone to the opposite extreme and have done vio­lence to God’s-plan'of salvation by making grace an excuse for sin, using-tbeir freedom from law as a justification of lawlessness: We' are God’s ’ “workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works” (Eph. 2:10).

Once begun, she must -tell him everything; but at her word, his hand tightened on her arm. .“Where did you get them, Mary?” “Jarambo gave them to me the day we left Gilead.” “Jarambo?” His eyes cleared with relief. “I suppose he’d had them for years. Probably dove for them himself.' Was that it?”“No,” she said. “I think I know what happened.” She told him the truth, or her best guess at what the truth might be; she related now at last the massacre at the island, and the burning of the ship.“They had killed Aulgur, you know,” she reminded him. “I sup­pose these were his pearls, and they got them, and Jarambo found them on their schooner.”He sat down, shaken by what he heard, fumbling for solid ground again. "Our islanders slaughtered those men?” “Yes!” She said. “But they did it because they loved you, George.” After a moment he cried in a sud­den strength: “Mary, I’m glad they did! The world’s better without them.”“Yes.” “Mary, why didn’t you tell me all this before?” “You were so Al.”“Did Cap’n Corr know about the massacre?”“Yes.” “Does anyone else aboard know?” “Corkran knew, of course. He’s probably told everyone. And they all saw the smoke from the burning schooner before they reached the is­land.” He nodded briefly, said in a slow scorn of himself: “Everyone knew but me, but no one told me.” “I knew how unhappy it would make you." He laughed shortly. “I know now where I stand with you all. You think me a weak woman of a man, who has to be guarded and cajoled and shielded, protected from the truth.” “Please, George.’’He shook his head. “Oh, I sup­pose I’ll be all right when I’ve thought it over; but it’s pretty hard to find yourself so contemptible in the eyes of other men!” He went to his own cabin and shut the door behind him, shutting her out.When he appeared for supper, he seemed to be himself once more. They were all cheerful at the sup-' per table. Peter did most of the talking, as he was apt to do. Snce that day when he killed the whale which had broken Richard’s arm, he was exuberantly sure of himself, inclined to condescend. ■ At dark that night, the weather, changed;. the wind came more southerly, and it stiffened, and was cold. Richard shortened sail a lit­tle, stayed on deck most of the night watching his ship, using as much wind as he wisely could, extract­ing from the half gale all it would safely give. The weather got no worse next day, but it got no bet-; ter; and Richard drove her care­fully that day and the days that followed. CHAPTER XV George coughed more and more; but in spite of Mary’s urgings, he went on deck every day, reiukng to be coddled, interested in this wesft^dpassage of the Horn, which they- wer 6 approaching; and he asked Riehard many questions.“We’re- all right,” Richard as­sured him. “The only thing I don’t want to hit is fog. : We’re apt to see icebergs' anytime. Tm shorten­ ing sail at night. As lotig as it stays dear .we. can see ice a long way from the crosstrees, and we1 can tell pretty well before dark if there’s any ice ahead of us. And the nights are short.. That helps;” - ■ He himself now kept the deck dur­ing the" brief hours of darkness, not going, below at all^«leeping in the. daytime. Their course was by this time southeasterly, and Richard took every opportunity to catch the sun, or to take a lunar.They sighted the Diego Ramirez Rocks one morning an hour after breakfast; and Mary put on her coat and went up the' companion and found Richard exuberant as a tri­ umphant boy in the knowledge that his' calculations had been ac­curate. The men forward were shouting instead of talking, .their voices high-pitched with triumph, knowing that presently they would turn at last northeasterly for the long run home.“Now,- I’ll snatch a wink, Mr. Forbes,” Richard toM Mat. “Call me when we come abeam of the Rocks.” So he and Peter went below with George and Mary; and Richard stripped off his great Jea coat.Mary said: “You’re dead for sleep, Richard. Go lie down.”He nodded. “I could sleep three, days in a row,” he ,agreed. IIe went into his cabin and closed the door behind him.Mary made George lie down in his bunk for warmth’s sake, and covered him over. She returned to her own cabin, and drifted off to sleep. Later she roused a little; heard Peter say in the common room outside her door: “I tell you you’re wrong. But anyway, watch yourself. Dick will Mary begged: "George, please.” blow you to pieces. He keeps a gun in the top drawer.”She sat up in swift alarm. As her feet touched the floor, she heard Peter go on deck again; and then George opened her door. He grasped her arm, his fingers crushing it so that she uttered a low cry of pain.: She looked up into his face and saw it: twisted and con­vulsed by some terrific.passion; and ‘she whispered in a quick terror: : “George! What’s the matter?”He said harshly, "Come out here! I want to talk to you and Captain Corr.” Holding her, he wrenched open the door of Richard’s cabin; and Richard asleep in the bunk opened his eyes, his head rising from the pillow, and then his whole body rose as he came to his feet in a jsh£rp’ alarm, steadying himself with his good hand. “What’s wrong?” he asked. He brushed past them into the common room, leaped toward the compan­ion, thinking only of the ship, think­ing heir in danger. When Richard, emerging from the cabin, brushed him aside, George had lurched toward the desk; and before Richard reached the foot of the companionway, George dragged open the' top drawer of the desk and lifted out of it the heavy pld revolver always kept there. At his cry, his command, Richard-turned and saw the weapon leveled at him firmly. For a moment he . did not move, staring In a bewildered astonish­ment; but then, his concern still for 'his ship, he said curtly:“I’ll be back!” And he went up the companionway. Mary began to understand what was coming; to foresee the content of the next half hour. She heard, as though far away, voices over their heads; but she did not look up. She stared at. George* as though he were a stranger seen for the first time; and she waited for Richard to return as for a.rescuer. When he descended the compan­ionway, he closed the scuttle be­hind him, Shutting them in. He stopped at the foot of the ladder, looking from one of them to the other. George had turned, stood braced now with his feet wide apart, his back to the desk. The Venturer, quartering the seas, was combining -a..pitchand a roll in an exasperat­ing motion, Slithetihg upward at an angle, poising, .lurching down again.George had put on some compo­sure. He was steadier now, and qui­ eter. He backed against the desk, still'holding the revolver, and faced them both; and. he spoke in crisp, slow tones. He said evenly: “I want this .business between you stopped, today, now.”Richard stared at him; he looked helplessly at Mary; “I’m so tired I’m dumb,” .he’ said; speaking to her, not to George. “Maybe it’s because I’m short of sleep. I don’t know what he’s taUtihff about.” ' But Mary knew. So many inci­ dents out of the past came now to enlighten her. This mandating them with a weapon in his hands was the same George who could not en­dure the thought of leaving her with Joseph Neargood at Gilead. He was the same George who could not see Fritz Aulgur give her a pearl. He was the same George who was for­ ever tormented by a devil of jeal­ousy. It did not occur to her to wonder why the passiaji in him had thus suddenly come to a head. Cer­tainly he had lost control of him­self. . She moved toward him, ’ said leadingly: “George, you’re sick. .Let me put you to bed. Please!” . “I’m sick to death,” he told her. - "Sick of you! Don’t touch me. I’ve shut my eyes to your wantonness long enough." His word stopped ter like a blow. Richard protested gravely: “George, you’re talking in circles.If you’ve got anything to say, say it. What’s on your mind?” “I’m talking about you and Mary making love to each other aU the time,” George told him; and his own rage choked him, and he coughed, Ending double, clutching at his chest, his face dark with lack of breath before he could speak again. “Do you think I’m blind?” he challenged then.“I think you’re crazy!” “I’m crazy, am I?” George visi­bly fought to control himself; to speak impassively. "Oh 1 I don’t blame you so much. Why wouldn’t you make love to her, when she begs for it? Captain Corr, leave her alone. No < matter what she . says. Because if you ever touch Mary again, or speak, to her, I’U kill you.” Richard said miserably; llMan, you’re sick!” “Maybe I am. But I’m not- too . sick to pull a trigger. I’ve killed as big a. man as you, with' a pick­axe, and he had a gun! Don’t you touch Mary again, or speak to her. “Speak to her?’’ Richard echoed. “Why, sure I will; and I’ll touch her too if it comes that way. Have some sense! Why wouldn’t I?” George cried explosively: "Be­cause you’re in love with her, and she with you!” But on his own words, a paroxysm of coughing swept him, bent him, silenced him, He dropped the revolver on the desk, clutching at his chest with both hands. It was long before he could speak again. Through that long' moment Rich­ard looked at Mary, and Mary looked at Richard. Before the mo­ment ended, each knew. It was true! While their eyes met in that long exchange like a revela­tion, like vows exchanging, these two forgot George, racked and help­less by • the desk. His words un­locked at last a long-closed door. What he said was true, and while their eyes held now, they both knew it! They knew that they had loved each other always, and would love each other, always. They had not guessed-.the truth before; but they knew-it now forever, beyond doubt, beyond change, beyond forgetting. Each thought wonderingly: I was blind not to know, then that this was true. But now they knew. Now they knew; and the knowledge was a gulf, deep and terrible and hopeless. Their eyes held hard, till George recovered; and they did not know he had recovered till he crossed to thrust at. Mary with a movement like a blow, to break the bridgo of their exchanging glasses, and to cry, pitifully furious: “Don’t! Stop! You shan’t even \ look at him so!” She spoke in a panic of haste, des- . perately denying, as much to per­ suade herself as her husband.Mary whispered: “George, George it isn’t true!” She looked at Rich­ard again. She knew it was true, knew he knew. “It isn’t, please!” she cried like a prayer. George faced her, challenged: "So ' it’s not true?”■ “Of course not!”He lifted one hand, brushed H past her like' a scornful blow. “You’re a liar!”Mary begged: ^George, please!” He swung to her, staring at her narrowly. “You want me to believe you don’t love him?” he demanded.“I don’t, George.”He grinned mockingly. He slipped his arm through here. “AU right,** he said. “I believe it.' I believe you. You’re my wife, and you Iovt - me. Is that true?” “Yes, yes, yes.”- "You love me with aU your heart?”“Yes;” ' ' “And soul?”“Yes.’-’“Fully and completely and pas­sionately?”’ . . . , “Yes, yes, you kniiw I do.’*He had begun this catechism In ; tones derisive; but under her ear­nestness, his derision faded. He waft so lost without her, wanted so much'' to believe her, that he began to do so.

JUNE 18.1941 Drys Winning Hard Fight If all the citizen* of the United State* were asked today to go to the polls and vote yes or no an whether the nation should return to constitutional prohibition, one out of every three persons would vote yes. Smprising as that may sound to some, it is a fact verified by the most recent Gal*Iup Poll. This sur­vey found 32 per cent of the people willing to go on record as ready to vote in favor of national prohi­ bition, as com- pared with only I Voter m 3SOpercenteight For Dry Laws years ago, according to Gallup’s statistics. These figures indicate that there has been no rout of the temperance forces, that instead of losing ground since repeal—as claimed in some quarters—they have more than held their own.Most Americans will probably be surprised to learn that those who woilld vote tomorrow for prohibition constitute such a substantial minor­ity. One of the Gallup statisticians calculated that if all the persons calling themselves dry had voted for the prohibition candidate in the last national election he would have re­ceived about 16,000,000 votes.AU this indicates that only a com­ paratively small shift in public opin­ion is necessary in order to give the forces of temperance strengtii to go into battle .on even terms.The rising tide of temperance sen­timent is shown in reports reaching NationalW.C.T.U. of new supporter* of the dry cause. Slowly but sure­ ly, mass resent­ment is beginning to be aroused in the American peo­ple at the heart­less efficiency with which liquor sales promotion is carried on by the highly capitalized and effectively or­ ganized liquor industry of today, re­taining all the evils of the old time saloon and adding many new ones.These Americans have given liq­uor a chance since repeal—with tire ever-more-evident result a convic­tion, based on their own observa­tion, that complete prohibition is the only real solution. Voters Say “No* To Liquor Eaoh year an increasing number of Americans decide the liquor ques­tion for themselves by making the Uquor traffic illegal in their cities or counties.These hard-headed American citi­ zens seem to be coming out from under the delusions fostered by high- powered propaganda during the liquor-inspired fight on national pro­ hibition.Tliey look around their own neigh­borhoods, mull over the easily visi­ble effects of Iiq- uor on parents, on car drivers and on youth, and then they decide —as their parents were forced to decide early in tills century—that v the best means of Vote” C“0,ee Uquor control is a resounding “no” at the ballot box. Not much gets into the press about the number of wet-dry elec­ tions held each year in a score or more of states. The results of these elections are difficult to total; but, the best available statistics show that 12,400 elections have been ItoId in local communities since repeal and, in 7,700 of these elections tin drya have won.In two states, South Carolina .and Oklahoma, very, definite results were shown. The Uquor traffic tried unsuccessfuUy again, in Oklahoma, to repeal that state’s constitutional prohibition. The state’s citizens vot­ ed overwhelmingly dry. In South Carolina the vot­ers by referen­ dum ordered their legislature to pass a state prohibition law. South Carolina has tried post-re­peal methods of EIeetionResuIt ^ntroL Now its citizens say “Outright prohibition is the only answer." Several states are reported plan­ning attempts to secure outright prohibition, with church and tem­perance and welfare groups tmiting for the fight against the well- financed Uquor trade. Groups like the W.C.T.U. quote history to show that, after Ameri­cans try all manner of legal regula­tion, they always return to complete prohibition as the only feasible an­swer to the evils of alcohol.

Hcfw tru e this is. N o use to deny facts. H ow ever, w hen we live for and serve the L ord faith­ fully we have lot of jo y along the pathw ay of life also God . turns o u r sorrow s and troubles into peace and joy from tim e -to tim e, for w hich we thank and praise H im . T herefore it pays to love and serve H im in th e beauty of holiness as we pass through the years of life. W e realize th at our sorrow s and troubles will all be over som e sweat and glorious day if we are true to G od until this brief life is over. B ut the greatest trouble of earth is am ong those-who live evil, sin ful, wicked lives. T hey have noth­ ing to look to, nothing to depend upon to help them in and through their troubles. A s they serve the devil he heaps trouble upon top of trouble on their souls. H e leads them into trouble deeper and, deep* er. A nd w hat is by far the worst of it is the fact th at be leads them to everlasting trouble. T here is m uch trouele on the broad w ay to hell, but in hell there is nothing but trouble. T henw ew onderw hy men serve the devil. H e is the trouble-m aker of all th e earth, and certainly the trouble-m aker in hell. A nd his plan and desire is to lead every hum an being into trouble here and hell hereafter. O deluded soul, " tu rn ye, tu rn ye, for w hy will >e die?” Does your heart crave peace? T hen turn to God. H e only can give you the peace you need and desire. O ur Saviour is th e wonderful "P rince of Peace.” Indeed the troubled of earth are to be found everyw here. M any good people have lots of sorrows and troubles. I t is tru e th e devil m akes life to them ju st as hard as he can in order to defeat them . H e brings upon us m any fiery trials and troubles along th e journey of life, as he hates G od and all who love and serve H im ; but it is com­ forting indeed to know th at he can never, never trouble the saints of G od w hen we get hom e to glory. T hera is no devil, no sin, no wick­ edness, no sorrow, heartache, sighs, sufferings, disappointm ents, troub­ les and tears in heaven, I w ant to go there, don’t you? I t looks like every hum an being would so desire to get out of trouble th at they would live for G od faithfully and tru ly ,‘and not for the devil, who is the author of all trouble. . People w rite us'from tim e to tim e of their troubles—personal and do­ m estic—and f a i t advice as to w hat they should do, or ask for our ear­ nest prayers.

T his is a tim e for serious, sound and ra­ tional thinking and acting in a de- vasting war. Some of our legislators in W ash­ ington w ant to shoot the big bad wolf in E urope, while others would go to Japan to perform th e act. Birm ingham ’s clown congressm an, L uther P atrick, suggested on the floor of the' H ouse of R epresenta­ tives the sending of our N avy a- cross the A tlantic on' convoy ex­ peditions, but Senator Pepper of Florida w ent him one better and dem anded th at our air force go to Japan and bom b Tokyo. T h at’s the old w ar spirit for you. “ Senator “ G et T ough” Pepper also urged that this country imme diately seize the Cape V erde Islands and the Azores, both belonging to neutral portugal. B ut Secretary H ull explained a few days later the Florida Senator did not represent official views of this governm ent. Should we “ get tough” and seize these possessions, it would m ean an­ other ally for H itler and M ussolini, for Portugal would naturally have to appeal to them for support.

My curiosity aroused, I inquired of the Marine Corps and was inform ­ ed th at in May 1936 when acting as the President’s side, he was awarded the diploma of the. National Order of the Southern Cross of Brazil, and in May of 1938 the O rder of the M ilitary M erit first class,. white badge, Dominican Republic, and in March of 1938 the order of the Crown of Belgium. The Constitution of the United States provides th a t— "No person holding an office of profit or trust,, w ithout the consent of Congress, accept any present, em olument office, or title of any kind whatever from any king, prince, or foreign state.” On fu rth er search I found th at in Private O ct No. 55. Seventy-fifth Congress, approved April 24. 1937, he was listed among other officers of the Army and Navy and Marine Corps “ to accept such medals, orders and decorstion»as have been tend­ ered them .” This would cover the Brazilian decoration, but I can find no authority for his w earing the others.—Rep.

A m ong th e m ore em barrassing situations in the W ashington de­ fense m uddle was the recent pots and pans crisis. T here has been m uch talk lately of a possible alum inum shortage for defense needs. T he Office of P ro ­ duction M anagem ent became so concerned about it th at a door to door collection of alum ium pots, pans and other item s was organized as a test cam paign in Madison, W is , and Richm ond, V a., to see w hat could’be salvaged. U nfortunately, just as the test got underw ay, it was disclosed th at the A rm y has been energetically buying thousands of new alum in­ um pots, coffee filters, and pitchers for use in training canps. T his fact created em barrassm ent for all parties concerned, because it did look a little silly for th e OPM to harvest used alum inum articles from priyate citizens (including three artificial legs) while th e arm y apparently had never heard of the alum inum shortage! A situation like this m ay seem hum erous at first glance, but it real­ ly illustrates the serious fault in our defense effort—the confusion and lack of coordination in W ash­ ington.

C. W H O ’S N E W S T H IS W E E K B y LEM U EL F . PA R T O N (Consolidated F eatu re s—WNU S ervice.)I NEW YORK.—Capt OKver LyttIe- ton who tells the British they can't fight a war and keep their pants pressed, at one and the same _ _ _ _ time, is oneFrayed Cuff and 0f the hand ThreadbareKnee somest and Smart in Britain best-dressed men in England. It is as president of the board of trade that he rations clothing and decrees the proud distinction of shabby ap­parel. It is now smart to be shabby in Britain. Mr. Lyttleton is managing di­ rector of the huge and powerful British Metals Corporation Ltd., and, before taking his present post last year, was controller of non-ferrous metals. Under a wide extension of Ids powers as head of the board of trade, he was enabled to take over indus­ try for defense purposes and to shift and re-allocate labor to any tasks he deemed necessary. He proceeded swiftly with his mobi­ lization of defense resources. This assertion of governmental control caused the newspapers to tag him as the “czar of industry,” and !it is interesting to note that our Edward R. Stettinius Jr. is thus headlined, as the mandatory priori­ties bill gives him the power to sub­ ordinate all production to defense. The extended parallel is also inter­esting in that Mr. Stettinius is also a steel-master, former chairman of the board of the United States Steel corporation. England, perhaps more on- easy and alert than we in the abstractions of social change, was quick to interpret this cen­ tralization of power as of pro­ found significance. Beaver- brook’s Evening Standard said: “This constitutes the biggest economic and perhaps social revolution that this conntry has faced since the breakdown of feudalism. In fact, we are on the verge of a vast experiment in syndicalism.” Captain Lyttleton has never been involved in any such social drift. He is Cambridge bred, the inheritor of a vast fortune and an ancient name, a hard-hitting industrialist and sol­dier with a reputation for quick and effective action in any emergency. He fought through the World war with the Grenadier Guards, gather­ ing the D.S.O. and several mentions in dispatches. He is 48 years old. - •---- A/I UCH as it esteems tolerance, •*-v* this department occasionally has noted that people who always can see both sides of everything M . n o n r» x are frequent- New OPM Deputy iy taken Boss a Wonder at down with ■ Human Catalyzing alternating personality, or something like, and just cancel themselves out.James L. O’Neill, appointed dep­uty director of the OPM Priorities is an exception. The baldish, ami­ able, friendly New York banker has an instinct for understanding the oth­ er man’s point of view, and at the same time holding to his own. It upped him steadily in the business world, to his present post of operat­ing vice president of the Guaranty Trust Co. of New York. This ambi­dextrous vision has given him rare effectiveness in personnel problems and in allaying friction in manage­ ment. That might have a bearing on his moving into the OPM at Uus moment. A Republican, he had a flexi­ ble attitude toward the early New Deal, and was loaned " by the bank as control officer of the NRA in December, 1934. When the Supreme court saw only one side of the NRA, and not the sonny side, if any, Donald Bich- berg moved out and Mr.'O’Neill moVed in, as administrator. He solved the problem of immedi­ ate personnel by firing about one-third of it, but by this time the NRA was functioning only to save funeral expenses. Mr. O’Neill liquidated it in neat and workmanlike fashion, ami went back to his bank. But he left many friends in Washington, and should be helpful In breaking pri­ ority Iog-jams. He. is known as a marvelous human catalyzer. He was born and grew up in Pittsburgh. Mr. O’Neill drove a grocer's wag­on at the age of 10, became an er­rand boy for the Bradstreet Corp., and later credit man for the Car- iegie Stciel Co., a job which nur- •ed his talent for mixing and paci-. >./ing.After 22 years of this, he joined the Guaranty Trust Co., in 1918, en­gaged at : first mostly in personnel studies. He likes people and can understand almost anybody. He is deeply religious and is occupied-as a Presbyterian layman in church and welfare undertakings at hi# Ihorr.e in Short Hills. N. J.

Let’s talk about play clothes for the theme is a most fascinating one. More triumphantly, more spectacular­ly than ever before in the annals of fashion lore are the designers -answering the challenge for play clothes that will add to' the picture of golfing, tennis, hiking, swimming, motoring, and all the other sports that go to make perfect days of out­door playtime. A significant thing about modern play clothes is that they have a way of making one keenly fabric-minded. That saying about necessity being the “mother of invention” applies perfectly to. modern play clothes’ fabric production. Scientific proc­essing is achieving materials that are as near 100 per cent perfect as is humanly possible in the matter of washability and wearability which are guaranteed to be practically non-fading, non-shrinking, non-wrin­kling and all the other qualities demanded for apparel that must withstand the ravages of strenuous wear.It is interesting to note the rise to high style distinction thht is taking place among fabrics once consid­ered of low degree. There’s denim, for instance, once synonymous with commonplace workaday overalls, now playing a star role as media for the smartest tailored suits that a socialite In the smart set might don this summer in town or for country club wear. By the way, when you go shopping in the sports departments take a look at the swank slacks and shorts made of yellow denim. Top these with a vivid calico-patterned print blouse or a jacket quilted of. bright fig­ured glazed chintz and you will rank high in any fashion parade. Carrying her tools in the pockets of a blue denim culotte outfit the pretty young miss pictured to the left in fiie illustration of smart play clothes is tending her Aowgrs in most picturesque attire. Note the cotton braid trim that adds a dash of color to the huge pockets and the wide shoulder straps. A bolero to protect her shoulders and a quilted apron to protect her knees are also included in this cunning outfit.The pinafore pair shown in the background will cheer the heart of every mother and daughter. These pinafore types should be an inspira­tion to home sewers in'that they are so easy to-make. The profession­ al looldng nicety of the edge seam­ing is achieved in a jiffy with a little edge stitcher found in every mod­ern sewing machine kit. The hill gathered finish given to the back-but­toned skirt is only a matter of min­utes with the gathering foot attach­ment. The same material is used for both—a striped denim. The two out­fits cost but a trifling sum to make, they promise much joy in the wear­ing and besides mother-and-daugh- ter costumes are fashion’s pet theme this year.Hp to the last season or so the great problem with fabricists has been to produce white materials that will come out of a brisk tub­ bing or. cleaning process as white as when new. Welcome comes the message of white rayon pique shark­skin which is proving ideal for ten­nis frocks and for white suits and afternoon dresses. It is this snow- white pique sharkskin that is used to make the tennis frock shown in the foreground of the group pic­tured. Here is a fabric that is sure to stay in top form, having been test­ed and approved for wearing and cleaning satisfaction. It adds an exciting note of interest because this dress was designed by Alice Marble, national tennis champion, making it authentic news as to what’s what in smart action fashions. (Released by Western Newspaper Onion.) C h in tz H o u se c o a t Enthusiasm for cottons in the fab­ric realm has crescendoed to a new high this season. .The importance of cottons in the fabric realm is simply breath-taking not only be­cause of the transcendent loveliness of cotton weaves but there is no call of the mode be it ever so humble or an event ever so festive and for­mal but what there is a cotton fab­ ric that will tune into the: picture perfectly. Moss roses never looked prettier in real life than they do on the cotton chintz housecoat pictured. The graduated border idea of the print makes it possible to achieve uiteresting effects at the shoulders and waist and in the skirt. N o n -C ru s h in g F a b ric M a d e F ro m C o tto n In these vacation days of outdoor activities and week-end trips more and more the desirability of clothes made of non-crushing and non-wrinkling wash materials is rec­ognized. A cotton that has come valiantly to the rescue is the* new boude weave and designers are certainly making wide use of it in dresses and in suits. You just tub it, shake it out and let it dry and presto! It is all ready to wear. looldng as fresh and as well groomed as new. Dressmaker Bathing Suits Recall Fashions of 1890sThe fashion trend in bathing suits is to dressmaker effects done in most any material one might choose. Taffeta is especially good style; so is flowered or striped jersey. The knitted suit is a particular favorite. So definite is the dressmaker styling that one is reminded of fas-iions that held forth in the gay nineties. Ihe difference between “has been” and modern styles is found in shorter ruffled bloomers, shorter (much shorter) skirts and open midriff ef­fects. In elastized types the princess sil­houette is a favorite and even newer is the one piece ballerina elastized satin types. The Hawaiian influence is seen inlarge-ftoraleffects. Knitted Cape As everyone knows, fashion’s spotlight is on capes and the vogue will continue during the fall and win­ ter. The latest reaction to this trend is the enthusiasm.-.expressed for capes id tip knitted realm.. Why not begin to knitliow so as to be among the first to come out in a knitted cape this faff.' You can buy capesuita now that . look, as if hand- knit if you prefer. '‘‘FIRST-AID* to th e AILING HOUSE , By ROGER 8. WHITMAN , ; Roger B. Whitman—WNUr Secvlce,) Clogged Disposal System QUESTION: After 14 years our cesspool has filled up. The con­tractor tells me that the sides are clogged with grease from the kitch­en sink, and that if he pumped it out it would only fill up again. Do you know of any chemical that I can pat in to dissolve the grease?Answer: I do not know of any­ thing that can be counted on to be effective. The one remedy for that condition is to dig a smaller cesspool alongside the first, to fill by over­flow. The connecting pipe should go below the surface, of the liquid in the first cesspool, so .that grease will not be carried over. I know of such arrangements that are still giving excellent service after many years. All su<$ trouble would be avoided if, in building a new cesspool, a grease-trap is placed in the drains from the kitchen sink and the laun­dry tubs. Of course, the grease- trap must be cleaned out every few months, which is not difficult. Chimney Creosote Question: My house, 125 years old, is shut up for the winters. When I go up, I find great black. stains from creosote that has run down the inside of the chimney onto the floor. The chimney is new from the roof up. What to do?Answer: As the creosote appears after periods when the house has been empty, and cold, the trouble must start with leakage of rain. The roof flashings around the chimney may be defective, and should be in­spected. If the flue is very large, as was usually the case with houses of that age, you should put on some sort of a cap to keep out rain. Your architect can suggest s type to con­form with the design of the house. Sawdust Insulation A reader sends a clipping from a Canadian paper that recommends tiie use of wood shavings and saw­dust for insulation, adding that “I always supposed that both of these products were subject to spontane­ous combustion.”Answer: Sawdust and shavingsare not practical tor a house, not because of the .possibility of spon­taneous combustion—which is re­ mote—but because1 they absorb and hold moisture, and are also attrac­ tive to vermin as nesting material. Sawdust and shavings can be used in icehouses and similar buildings where their disadvantages would not matter.Bed Sandstone Walls. Question: I am planning to build a house, one wing of which will be of red sandstone. One of my friends suggests a stone' veneer of six or eight .inches. Another suggests sol­id wails of 12 inches furred with 2 by 2 inch strips. My concern is freedom from dampness in the interior of tiie house. Which type of construc­tion would you advise? .Answer: A furred out solid stone wall is satisfactory, but my prefer­ence is for veneered wall construc­ tion. The additional air space, sheathing boards and sheathing pa­per in a veneer construction make a wall more resistant to weather and dampness. Downdraft in Chimney Question: I have: been troubled at times with a downdraft or backdraft in my chimney, and it has been sug­gested that a revolving top be put on tiie chimney. Will this correct the condition? What effect will it have on the draft?Answer: A revolving top on the chimney will help prevent down­drafts, and will not affect the draft in any way if the top is sufficiently large. Downdraftsmaybe due to too low a_chimney; the top should be at least three feet above a flat roof and two feet above the ridge of a peak roof. A nearby tall tree may also cause this difficulty. RoIIel-Up Iiinoleum Question: I have had a roll, of linoleum standing in my attic for-, three' years. Now I want to use it, but am told that it is likely to crack when I unroll it. How can this be prevented?Answer: The only treatment that will protect your linoleum against cracking when you unroll it is to get it. thoroughly - warm. It will ‘ then have greatest flexibility. Any liquid or other treatment would damage the linoleum, and mightmake it use­ less.... Caster Marks Question: I have soft wood floors in my bedrooms, and on moving the beds the casters make deep marks. Can this be prevented?Answer: Casters for furniture used on soft wood floors should have roll­ers of felt, or some similar soft com­position; the rollers should not be metal or hardwood.' Casters with felt rollers can be had at large hard­ware stores Or from the mail order houses. ■ .v ' Stopping Tree Boots - Question: Please, suggest aliim- ber to he used to sink in tiie ground to a depth of, say; 12 inches for the purpose of checking the roots of two maple trees in the street.which run info my front lawn and prevent the growth of hedge? and grass.Answer: Instead of wood, use.a heavy gauge sheet zinc. It will last a'good many years and makes a very satisfactory stop for roots. If you-prefer to use ,wood, you-will find the following quite suitable ^forj .the purpose: cypttiss, redwood-or c^djr. Coat it with creosote. - P f s EVERYTHING FOB HER NEW KITCHEN (See Becipes Below) REALLY PRACTICAL! Whether the bride-to-be is bound for a six-room “dream house” or for . a one-room kitchenette apart­ment, you can’t go wrong if you give her a kitchen shower . . . one that’s practical, of course!And, knowing that some of you are anxious for new, clever, unusual ways to entertain. I’m ready , with plans- for a- kitchen shower that’s really different!

The tablecloth is :of a fancy new- type oilcloth,' and the place mats and napkins are none other than dish cloths. An angel food cake pan serves as the base for a “gadget bouquet” cen­terpiece of measuring spoons and cup, carving set, sugar scoop, funnel, spatulas, pancake turner, strainer, tea ball, grater and other vital kitchen helpers. 'The plates are pie tins. The flat- ware is a very inexpensive kind with gaily-colored plastic handles. And note the spice jars to the right which, because they’re to be gifts, hold salt and pepper while doing table duty. They’re from the Grif­fith laboratories. The first course of tiie luncheon is a tart ’Cardinal Salad, set on the table right in its aluminum ring mold. A tasty Beef'Stew in a cas­serole follows.

We haven’t forgotten what these gentlemen promised us last fall when they were begging the "dear peepul” to vote for them. A good old Republican told us. that he would have to quit reading The Record. He said the New Deal had given him a “Piddler’ Aid” job and that he was now voting th e Democratic ticket, which reminds us of the loaves and fishes. We are glad that we live in the best town, the greatest State and the grandest country on the face of the earth, “the land of the free and tbe home of the brave;” where the Star Spangled Banner proudly waves over a hundred and thirty million patriotic sons and daughters who do not know what the word fear means, aod whose ancestors spoke in thunder tones on May 20, 1775, and made their voice heard throughout tbe civilized world. Herr Hitler dares to show his as. sr.nine face in this part of the world we will give him a hot reception but our boys do not want to go to Europe to do tbeir fighting. C otton C rop S h o rt. Tl:e cotton crop in Davie is go. ing to he short this year. A few days ago we covered about 40 miles of country toads in Mocksviile, Farmington, Shady Grove and Ful ton townships. In this 40 miles of travel we saw but one or two fields of cotton that looked like they would produce even a half crop. We did see some fine corn and some good . looking wheat, especially in Farmington township. One of tbe best pieces of corn we saw was a field lying between Wesley Davis* home and the Wade Furches home. We are guessing that this field be. longs to Wade. We saw but little tobacco on our trip. The finest field of tobacco weJbave seen this spring is just west of County Line, and belongs to Paul Stroud, we are told With good seasons during the summer, Davie will have a good corn crop with fairly good tobacco, but from present indications the cotton crop will not be over half as large as the 1940 erop. Not en­ ough wheat has been threshed or combined to give a fair estimate of how the yield “is going to turn out. The barley crop in some sections averaged around 30 bushels to the acre, which was good, considering the dry weather. S h e ffie ld N e w s.

CHAPTER XV—Continned —16— _ , George caught her to him, held her close, the thin muscles in his .arms tightening in nervous spasms. Then George freed himself and stood erect again and turned to Richard, while he still held Mary’s arm like an owner in possession. He •poke haltingly. “I’m sorry, Cap’n Corr,” he said. “I was wrong." He coughed-twice.“You must lie down,” she .said. 'TU tuck you in. You’re cold and •ick and tired.”“Come.” He tugged at her. ‘Tm not tired. I’m strong now, Mary.” The cabin was small, with a high bunk against the ship’s side, a lock­fast at one end, drawers beneath Ihe bunk, a seat and a drop-desk where his Bible and his two or three other books lay. George shut the door and turned to her and caught her hands and whispered hoarsely: “You do love me, Mary?”She said mechanically: “Of course t do.”He threw up his head, half laugh­ing. “There's no ‘of course’ about It” he cried. “I know you do, now; but'l never knew what it meant be­fore, Mary. I love you too, today. I always have, without knowing it. I love you, Mary.” “I know you do, George dear! I know you dot” Then George began to cough again, and had to release her; and she stood, watching him as remote­ly as she watched herself, thinking how little he was, and thin, and weak, and frail. He coughed and coughed, half- sitting on the bunk, clinging to the edge of it behind him with both hands, trying to stand, till he be­gan to bow forward; and she real­ized that he was slipping down, low­er and lower. Then suddenly he was • sprawled heap, all legs and .thin arms in a coat too big for him on the floor at her feet. She was strong enough to lift him, with what help he could give, into the bunk; and to wipe his stained lips gently, and to loose his gar­ments and take off his shoes and cover him. She brought blankets from her own bed to warm him; but when she felt his body under the blankets he was cold, cold, cold. Sometime, minutes later or hours later, Peter came down to speak to her. He stood in the doorway, asked warily: “What happened?" “George is sick.” "What happened to him?” “Nothing. I think he caught cold. He started coughing.” “Anything upset him?” “No, no. He’s just sick, Peter." Peter said, watching her narrow­ ly: “Dick’s gone crazy!” She looked up at him in quick concern. “Crazy as a coot,” he said, in a fretful anger. “He came on deck and piled every stitch on her. He just said he was in a hurry to get home.” Bichud did not come below for dinner or for supper. CHAPTER XVI Mary stayed beside George’s bunk all that night. She thought the mo­ tion of the ship had eased. There was no longer much roll. Once next day Mary went up the companion- way. She saw, standing somewhat sheltered by the companion, that the great seas astern were forever about to overtake them. Solid water piled up behind them higher and higher, seemed to hang above them for a while, moving nearer and near­er, till its crest broke into wind- driven foam, and the mass subsided. There were two men at the wheel, fighting it hard. Peter came to Tlichard’s side and shouted some­thing; but Richard, staring stonily ahead, did not even nod. Peter turned to the companion, and Mary backed down into the cabin with him following.He said, hoarse with panic: “He's crazy, I tell you.”She saw that he was shaking with simple fear; but she was.not afraid. No emotion could touch her now. She went in to George, to sit be­side him, holding his hand. He would be better when the sun shone again and they were all warm. Sie thought she had been cold for weeks, could not remember when she had not been stiff with cold. Time passed. At intervals, Peter or Mat Forbes came below for a brief mo­ment of rest in their cabin across from George’s. The lamps were lighted day and night, swinging and flaring crazily; but night ran into day without division. She thought of Ridiardi never leaving the deck, his face set like granite, staring ahead yet seeing nothing, forcing the ship along this road that might Bave death at the' end like a man fleeing blindly from something dreadful. Sheknewvdiat it was from which he fled. Her thoughts kept him company, hov­ered over'-him, wished she might comfort him, while the tortured Venturer drove on and on.Disaster struck them in that hour between midnight and dawn when men are at low ebb.For it was then a sea overtook the Venturer, solid water like a wall, so high that it becalmed the tore ■ course; and before the topsails could lift her it came aboard over the stem. Themassofitboiledthrough the after house; the stem was pressed down by the weight/ and the ship’s way checked. Then, as Hm Mem rose.thawater swirled and eddied about the decks like a school of fish meshed in a net try­ing this way and that to be free. It tore out bulwarks here and .there. It ripped one of the boats from the gripes and left it hanging stem, down against the ship’s side, bat­tering to splinters there. When that sea caught them. Mat' Forbes and Gibbons were at the wheel together, but Gibbons was torn away by the solid water and flung forward head overheels. One of his booted feet smashed through a pane in the skylight; and his foot in the hole it had made and held his body hanging head down. Mat Forbes held to the wheel. Richard and Peter were saved Iqr the life­lines to which they clung; and the watch on deck forward had warning enough to give'them time to grab at hand-holds. . As the stem lifted, Richard leaped through water that was still Imee deep' to help Mat with his one good arm. The Venturer had begun to broach to, but the foretopmast staysail helped pay her off; and they held her.'. The splitting crack when the foretopmast broke a foot above the cap warned Richard what was happening forward. The stick as it fell caught Eddie Few a sidewise crack that stunned him or killed him outright. He slid overboard as the great sea, sullenly relinquishing the attack, drew off from the decks of the Venturer. Gibbcnis freed himself from the skylight and, heedless of his lacerat­ed leg, returned to duty at the wheel. Richard kept the wheel with him, and since Peter was useless he Mary—Richard’s dead.” sent Mat Forbes to clear the wreck­age forward. Holding a precarious footiftg against the pressure of the screaming wind, Mat cut away the topgallantmast and let it go over­ side; and ..under his driving, men secured the fragment of the topmast to stop its banging, and caught the tangled web of rigging and con­trolled it with many lashings. The reefed foresail began to draw again, they got other useful rags of canvas on her; and an hour after that great sea, Richard went below to reassure Mary, he had the Venturer in hand. In that hour the gale, having : done its worst for their destruction, had somewhat relented. The pressure of the wind began to' ease, and be­fore daylight, though the seas still were mountainous, the immediate danger was over.Lsiter that day they dropped an­chor in a large bay which Peter identified as Hoakes Bay. Here Rich­ard planned, to repair Uie Venturer.JNext morning after breakfast was served, Ridiard wasasleep, and Pe­ ter did not wake him. “We’re bet­ter off if he stays asleep,” he said harshly. “He’ll wreck us before he’s through. He’s crazy!"-..Wearinesswas on them all, crushing them; and after they had eaten, and after Mary had warmed George’s bed with hot water in th& jugs again, they all slept. It was midafternoon before Richard roused, and waked others, and the work of repairing damage began.Hiey lay three days In Hbakes Bay; and most of the time the wind held steady and boisterously strong, and the cold ate into them deaden- ingly. But on the second day the sun shone fitfully between spats of rain; and when George saw the sun in his cabin window, he wished to go., on; deck. Mtfy and Tommy helped' him 'up the' companionway; and on her arm he moved out of the shade of the after house forward into the open waist of the ship. Marysaw one of the ship’s boats, on its way to the shore; and when Isaiah joined them, JSaty asked where the men. weregoifig. "Mate’s"' gone to get some fresh meat,” lie said, ,“and to look for fc chanceto-flU otir'wateri?asfcs. Is­land’s fullof wild hogs, thin as a deer, not a mite of tat on .’em any­where. You’d-think you wasiating veal. Real sweet meat."*fYon’ve;l£en here-before?'*-SQs Adam’s apple pumped violent­ly. , “Well, you might , say!. I’ve heard my pa tell about it, too. It used to be there'was a lot dt ships come here for seals, skins and blub­ ber and the like. They don’t come so much now.Not seals enough to pay xou for the trouble, nor whales either.” He peered off across the water through narrowed eyes. ' George, looking’ at the -green slopes rising .from the water, the brown-flanked mountains to the east, said: “It’s, all forest, isn’t it?” Isaiah shook his head. “That’s tussock grass you’re looking at. It grows ten-twelve feet tall, and from here it looks like trees for a fact, but it ain’t. There ain’t, no trees to mention, just vines and bushes. Corkran stopped for a moment and spoke te George. . “Reverence, you'll be needing sun on'you, and warm days again to set you right.” ■ “I’Jl be’ fine, yes,” George as­sented. ‘’Caught a little cold, that’s all; started me coughing again.” Mary, watching Corkran, saw the solicitude in his eyes. Then he turned to her, cheerful, smiling boldly. “Himself here, you., and the sun are the medicine he needs,” he said. “He has you, anyway.” She felt as she often did with Corkran something ■ Unspoken pass between him and her; she thought incredulously that somehow he had guessed her secret and Richard’s— which George must never know. “He’ll always have me,” she said simply. “All of me. All my life.” Her eyes met Corkran’s fairly. “Aye,” he said. “You’re fine.” Mat Forbes summoned him. George loqfced after the sailor as he moved away. “You know, Mary, Corkran likes me.” "I know." “I think he’s the first man who ever liked me.” Her hand lay in his arm. “I value his liking me} and yet by all the tests I know, he’s a graceless, sinful man.’-’ He smiled at himself, at his own in­consistency. At dinner next day Richard- said they would be ready to depart by evening if the wind served. “We might have to wait,” he admitted. “It’ll need to come some easterly to help us out of the Bay.” He was sending both the remaining boats ashore to fill the casks from a pond the men had found not far from the beach; and he and Peter would take one of the. guns from the cabin to try for geese as an addition to their stores. " When a little later the boats were gone,- the Venturer was almost de­ serted. " Msiry became conscious as th* afternoon drew on of a change in the wind, and looked out through the small square window above the bunk and saw that the ship had swung so that the southern shores of the bay instead of the northern were now on that starboard side. Richard had said an easterly wind would favor their departure from Hoakes Bay, and she thought with a lift of spirits that they would de­part tonight, as. soon as the boats returned; When after a while she heard the first boat bump the ship’s Side, something in--her quickened. She would be. glad to be away, glad to come mirth out of this rotting cold and be warm again. She heard feet on. deck, and li» tened for Richard’s voice. She heard Peter giving orders; then the creak of the windlass as the first cask of water , was swung aboard. Someone came down the compan­ion into the after cabin, and she thought it was Richard* and won­dered whether Mewould come to the door Mre to speak to them. ' ' Richard was coming into the mailt cabin now, passing the head of the table. She -heard his steps, and looked through the door and saw not Richard but Peter.. Peter went into the cabin which he and Mat Forbes shared; and after a minute or two he came out with his 'anhs full elf his belongings and carried them' through the door into the common room aft. Into Richard’s cabinl She sttfed after him and her hewt began to pound. She rose, and George waked and: asked quiddy: , “What is it, Mary? Don’t leave me.”She'nodded in submission, yet she' stood-in the door, waiting for Peter to appear again. Why was he in Richard’s cabin? She could hear the sounds of his movement there. She began to tremble, not now with cold. She wished to call to Peter, and her lips were dry and her throat ached. Then he appeared. He did not speak. -She forced herself to do so. She asked: “Peter—where’s Richard?” He shook his head, not in negation, but in a sort Cf submission. He said: “Mary—Richard’s dead.” . Mary .for a moment could not move. She heard herself whispering monotonously: “No. No. No.” She knew she‘Was: shaking her head in a gesture of denial, a refusal to be­ lieve. : Richard .could, not. be dead.' He had been so alive.'

Lessons from the earlyCHURCH LESSON TEXIt-I Corinthians 3:1-15. GOLDEN TEXT—For other foundation can no man lay than tbat is laid, which is Jesus Christ.—I Corinthians.3:11.. Corinth in. the time of Paul . was a great city, as renowned for its com­ merce and culture as it was notori­ous for its vice and licentiousness. Here on his second missionary jour­ney, Paul, with Silas and Timothy, spent 18 months winning many to Christ, in spite of the hostility of the Jews and the opposition of wicked men.The church established in Corinth became the victim of a factional spirit which divided the.loyalty of the people, hindering spiritual growth, destroying discipline, and resulting in low standards of life.Paul found it necessary to write to the church regarding its difficulties, and we may well learn salutary les­sons fiom his epistle. L A Lesson in Spirituality (w . 1-4). The further a man drifts from his place of spiritual power and useful­ness, the more apt he is to try to keep up a “front,” to take up any possible means of justification. The Corinthian church was divided into four groups, each one priding itself on being right. There was “a Paul­ine party, overzealousfor the founder of the church; an Apollonian party, bewitched by the oratory of Apollos; a Petrine party, which, claiming Peter as authority, was'bent on mix­ ing Jewish ideas with ChristiEinity; and a Christ party, which, in antag­ onizing other elements, became it­self a faction” (Moore). (See I Cor. .1:11-13.) AU this activity was cover­ ing up the fact that they were hav­ ing.1. Milk Instead''of Meat (w. I, 2). In other words they were spir­itual babes when they should have been grown-ups. Milk is a marvelous food, but there is need of stronger food for virile men and women.' How true it is that many ministers, must spoon-feed or bottle-feed a lot of spiritual babes who should long since have grown up to the place where they can feed themselves and help others. 2. Strife Instead of Stability (w, 3, 4). God does not want Chris­tians to be like other men. When will we learn that lesson? One of the sure ways to stifle spiritual growth in a church or in an individ­ual life is to engage in strife. Let us lieed Paul’s admonition and put away our bickerings, that we may become strong in the Lord. U . A Lesson on Service (w . 5-15). Here is helpful instruction to the minister regarding his calling. Brethren, let us judge ourselves in the light of it lest we hinder God’s work Iqr having the wrong attitude or encourage our people to think carelessly on this important subject.1. The Minister (w. 5-9). There is no higher or holier calling than that to the ministry. We should not forget that, and will not, but will ratter, glorify the. calling, , whan we realize that, “minister” (v. 5) means “servant,” “attendant,” or “wait­er.”' So Paul and Apollos, men of highest office and highest gits, were God’s waiters, to bring forth the bread of life; His servants, to plant and cultivate His field; and His builders, laboring on. His. building. Ministers are ‘ only instruments in God’s hands, but they should be clean, well-prepared; and submis­sive instruments in His hands. 2. The Manner (v, 10). The ser­vant of God must take heed how he builds. If, like Paul, he has the ,privilege of laying the foundation, he 'must be careful that it is the true foundation and is properly laid. He who builds must also be careful that every stone, he lays is fitly placed and well-chosen. 3. The Materials (w. 11, 12). How important it is that the materi­als of a building be right. U that be true of a physical building, it is a thousand times more important in God’s building. •. . First of all there is only one foun­dation which the true minister can lay—Jesus Christ It is the only foundation upon which anyone can build a lasting life structure for time and for eternity. But there are other materials in the building whiih need to be chosen with care.It will’ not- do fori the minister to substitute the wood, hay, and stubble of. his wisdom or the philosophy of men for the gold, sil­ver, and precious stones of God’s Word. Terrifying shame and loss is ail that can result from such folly, for remember there is a day of judg­ment coming. • " 4. The M anifestation (w . 13-16).

N.C., JUNE 25 . 1941. Drys Winning Hard Fight U «11 the citizens of the Vnited States were asked today to go to the polls and vote yes or no on whether the nation should return to constitutional prohibition, one out at every three persons would vote yes.Surprising as that may sound to some, it is a fact verified Iqr the most .recent Gal­lup PolL This sur­ vey tound 32 per cent of the people willing to go on record as ready to vote' in favor of national prohi­bition, as com­ pared with only 80 per cent eight !Voter to S ForlDry Laws years ago, according to Gallup’s statistics.These figures indicate that there has been no rout of the temperance forces, that instead of losing ground since repeal—as claimed in some quarters—they have more than held their own.Most Americans will probably be surprised to learn that those who woidd vote tomorrow for prohibition constitute such a substantial minor­ity. One of the Gallup statisticians calculated that if all the persons calling themselves dry had voted tor the prohibition candidate in the last national election he would have re­ ceived about 16,000,000 votes.AU this indicates that only a com­ paratively small shift in public opin­ion is necessary in order to give the forces of temperance enou strength to go into battle on even terms.The rising tide of temperance sen­timent is shown in reports reaching NationalW.C.T.U. of new supporters of the dry cause. Slowly but sure­ly, mass resent­ment is beginning to be aroused in the American peo­ple at the heart­less .efficiency with which liquor sales promotion is carried on by the highly capitalized and effectively or- - ganized liquor industry of today, re­ taining all the evils of the old time saloon and adding many new ones.These Americans have given liq­uor a chance since repeal—with the ever-more-evident result a convic­ tion, based on their own observa­tion, that complete prohibition is the only real solution. Voters Say 4Wo* To Liqwnr Eaoh year an increasing number of Americans decide the liquor ques­ tion tor themselves by making the liquor traffic illegal hi their cities or counties.These hard-headed American citi­zens seem to be coming out from under the delusions fostered by high- powered propaganda during the liquor-inspired fight on national pro­hibition. They look around their own neigh­borhoods, mull over the easily visi­ ble effects of liq­uor on parents, on car drivers and on youth, and then they decide —as their parents were forced to decide early in tills century—that the best means of Oustoe liquor control is a resounding “no” at the ballot box. Not much gets into the press about the number of wet-dry elec­tions held each year in a score or more of states. The results of these elections are difficult to total; but, the best available statistics show that 12,400 elections have been held in local communities since repeal and, in 7,700 of these elections the drys have won. In two states, Soutii CarcIina and Oklahoma, very definite Tesults were shown. The liquor traffic tried unsuccessfully again, in Oklahoma, to repeal that state’s constitutional prohibition. The state’s citizens vot­ed overwhelmingly dry. In South Carolina'the vot­ ers by referen­dum ordered their legislature to pass a state prohibition law. South Carolina has tried post-re- „ peal methods ofEleetionBesiilt control. Now its citizens say “Outright prohibition is the only answer.” Several states are reported plan­ning attempts to secure outright prohibition, with church and tem­perance and welfare groups imtting tor the fight against the well- financed liquor trade. Groups like the W.C.T.U. quote history to show that, after Ameri­ cans try all manner at legal regula­tion, they always return to complete prohibition as the only feasible an­swer to the evils of alcohol.
