Suffering Rev. Walter E. Isenbour. Hiddenite. N. C. ■Sometime ago I composed a poem entitled ' ‘Suffering,” w hich was published in the 'T abernade Tele­ scope, at G astonia, edited by Rev. E arl A rm strong, and one of m y readers, M r . M innie W illiam s, of Charlotte, has this to say in regard to the ooem: "B ro. Isenhour, I am so impress­ ed w ith one o f your poems In-your departm ent, ‘Life’s B etter W ay,’ in the T abernacle T elescope,'till I thought I w ould tell you it was such a great blessing to me. It seemed th at every line of it suited me, or fit m y case. I read every word of it over and over and just can’t tell how it blessed my. heart, and helped m e to take a new grip on life. I suffer a great deal, not so m uch in body, but In . m ind, heart and soul. I ju st pray the Lord will m ake all your w ork as great a blessing to others as this poem is to m e. I covet your pray, ers th at I m ay live a C hristian life In spite o f’devils and dem ons, and overcome evil w ith good. W ery sincerely, A struggling saint.” Siuce this dear sister .has found such help and courage by reading this poem, and taking its tru th s to heart, it daw ns upon m e th at it m ight help and bless others, so I am giving, it space in th e Q uiet Corner this week.

Application for this ad­ ditional supply of sugar for canning and preserving should be m ade at local rationing boards. So far, ap­ plications for sugar for preserving have been light. Housewives are urged to apply to their local rationing boards for the sugar they will b e allowed for can­ ning and preserving. They will be assuring themselves of a w inter sup­ ply of sweets in the event of the further tightening of sugar ration­ ing, and a t the sam e tim e will pre­ vent the w aste of the Southeast’s present fru it and berry erop, which would result in a heavy Iosrto South­ ern grow ers, The sugarrationboard in Mocks­ ville is located on second floor Ma­ sonic building. -- Commercial canneries can only use - small percentage of the crops in this region.

His application was rejected, but his disappointment has been lessened considerably by the brighter outlook for the business and by the fact that Lynu Morlock, the local doctor’s daughter, ' has decided not to go to England with her Red Cross unit. Now he has gone with Lynn while she gives first aid treatment to an outcast flyer named Slim Tumstead, who has been hurt in a fight. They learn that Tumstead knows about F ram e and about the new Lockheed. It is a few minutes later, and they are talking about their plans for the future. Lynn feels that she must think first of her father’s happiness. Now continue with the story. CHAPTER IV “But you mustn’t forget,” Slade contended, “that you have your own life to live.” “That’s what I’m trying to. re­ member,” was Lynn’s vibrant­ voiced reply. They came to a stop in front of the hospital steps. “Some day,” he said with a wave of recklessness, “I’ll make you see it my way.” If it sounded like a threat it brought no touch of concern to the hazel eyes searching his face. A smile even hovered about her lip ends. “You’ve got a harder job than that,” she retorted, “if you’re flying in to the Anawotto tomorrow.” Then the smile disappeared. “By the way, I saw that ornithologist who’s flying in with you. He was asking me what I knew about the country north of the Kasakana.” “Is he as screwy as he sounds?” asked Slade. “He’s ' far from screwy,” was Lynn’s slightly retarded answer. “He struck me as being cold and ‘ hard and shrewd. And I can’t fig­ ure out what he’s after. It rather makes me wish someone else was piloting him into that wilderness.” Slade was able to laugh, as they shook hands'. “Don’t lose sleep over that,” he proclaimed. Then he laughed again. “I’ve .flown some queer nuts into the North.” Slade, hurrying down to the air harbor,-could see his moored plane being warped in to the landing dock. On the dock itself he could make out Cassidy, of Uie Norland staff, and two strange figures, one more massive than the other. But what held his eye was the amount of duffel piled along the dock’s edge. As Cruger had told him, they were giving him a load all right. Even Cassidy’s broad face broke into a smile as he handed him the scales- slip. For Slade’s glance, at the mo­ ment, was directed toward the two men already interested in getting their equipment aboard. He resent­ ed the offhand way in which the big­ ger of the two strangers was clam­ bering about his ship. The worn wolfskin coat that covered the wide shoulders of this stranger made him look shabby and subordinate. When the pilot turned to his sec­ ond passenger he experienced a sense of disappointment touched with shame. For there seemed noth­ ing sinister about the straitened , and scholarly figure confronting him. That figure even failed to look fool­ ish. Slade saw a man considerably less aged than he had expected, a man with sloping and narrow shoul­ ders and an abstracted gaze that looked out on the world from behind bifocal glasses. Slade stepped closer. . “Quite a load you’re giving me,” he ventured as the man in the bi­ focal glasses continued to divide his attention between the duffel pile and a checklist in his-hand. The abstracted eyes lifted and re­ garded him for a moment of silence. It was' the glasses more than any­ thing else, Slade decided, that gave the stranger his look of delibera­ tion. . "Why does that interest you?” the stranger inquired. His tone was mild and without hostility., But the voice, low-toned and ' remote,' seemed marked by an exotic precision of intonation. It persuaded Slade that he was neither an Englishman nor an American. ^ , “This happens to be my ship,” the' pilot explained as he rested a fraternal' hand on the sun-faded fuselage. “Ah, then we shall see much of each, other,” said the other. His smile was friendly but abstracted. “I am Doctor Frayne. And this is my camp-mate, my. good man Fri­ day, Caspar Kamefl.” No responsive word came from the big-bodied man in the wolfskin coat. He merely stood aboye the cabin hatch, his eyes expression­ less. . - “Caspar is not—shall I say?—vol­ uble,” observed the Doctor. A mild, and forebearing smile wrinkled the scholarly face behind the glasses. “And that, I might also explain, is why we travel together.” Slade, after an inspection of the bland emptiness of KarneU’s face, nodded his understand ng. H H “Quite an arsenal you’re taking in,” he observed. “They tell me I’m to take you in to the Anawotto,” prompted the biish pilot.“That is my desire,” answered Dr. Frayne. “It may so happen that we shall winter up north.” “Down north,” - Slade corrected. “We speak of it here as down north.” The man with the hbstracted eyes ventured a shrug. “With time,” he said, “I shall be­ come better acquainted with your country.” His movement, as he swung a bag of what had every as­ pect of mining tools up to his com­ panion, was almost a dismissive one. “Prospecting?” questioned Slade, “I am not interested in prospect­ ing,” was. the deliberated answer. “I am a naturalist.” As though in confirmation of that statement he lifted a case of mount­ ed bird bodies up to his waiting companion. Then again the forced smile showed itself. “It may impress you as a foolish profession. Butfor manyVearsnow I have given my time to the study of bird fife.” Slade glanced down at the Mann- Iicher-Schoenauer, the two holstered Lugers, the pair of shotguns of dif­ ferent gauges and weight that rest­ ed between a scattering of cartridge cases. “Quite an arsenal, you’re tak­ ing in,” he observed. For just a moment the opaque eyes regarded him. “I am not unfamiliar with the North,” Frayne announced with a patience that seemed coerced. “It is well, in case of the unexpected, to be able to live off the land.” "Of ^course,” agreed Slade as: he watched the firearms being stowed aboard.. They were followed by a tent bale and sleeping bags, by con­ densed foods with foreign labels, by camp equipment and a box of signal flares and cased instruments and even two carrier pigeons in a hood­ ed cage. _ “You’re filling me pretty full,” ob­ served Slade. Frayne’s face remained expres- ilAny inconvenience that I may cause,” .he said, “I profoundly re­ gret. I had hoped, on arriving here, to purchase a plane. But they are not to be bought, I find.” “There’s use for ’em just now,” observed the pilot. “We’re' in the war, you-know.” •The eyes behind the bifocals be­ came less opaque, “But here at least,” observed the man of science, “I shall not see it come between me and my re­ search.” 11The office tells me ’ you’re after trumpeter swans,” said Slade. “I am seeking the nesting, ground of that noble bird,” acknowledged the ornithologist. “They are ex­ tremely shy and hard to find in the brooding season. That is why I go into an empty country like the Ana­ wotto.” . Slade, not unconscious of the ped­ agogic note, felt the need of prov­ ing that his interests extended be­ yond gas engines. “Ever tty for them around the Red Rock Lakes in Yellowstone?” he asked, “They, started a refuge for trumpeters there not so'far back.” . . “A refuge.which will be a failure,” was the prompt response. “Your trumpeter is a child of the wilds. He cannot be adjusted to confine­ ment.” His new friend, SIade admitted, seemed to know bis bird life all right.. His eye-squint deepened as he no­ ticed two heavier cases being lifted aboard. “By the way, are you tak­ ing radio' or wireless in with.you?” ' “Why should I do that?” Frayne questioned. “It is with,.the lady swan I wish to converse.” “But how’U you come.out?” asked Slade. “How’ll we know where to pick you up?” -< Frayne’s gaze -again became dif­ fused. . ; “That may not be necessary,” he finally .explained. “We shall per­ haps work our-pay through to . what are locally known as the Barrens and-come out along your . Hudson Bay coast It is a country you may happen to -know?” Slade smiled. .“I know it all right. As. much as a white man can know such.ice- fringed emptiness.” The bush pilot found himself be­ ing inspected with a new interest. “That is extremely good news,” averred his passenger, “As we fly north, I hbpe you will give me in­ formation about a country that is still distressingly unknown to m e.” - Slade resisted the temptation to observe that it wouldn’t'be . so un­ known to him by the time he’d wintered there. “But you won’t get swans as far east as the bay,” he pointed out instead. “At least, not trumpeters.” Frayne’s smile became more friendly. “Already,” ,he announced, “you are helping me.. And there is an­ other point on which you might en­ lighten us. Is the Anawotto River, navigable?” ■. “No, it’s not navigable,” an­ swered Slade. “It’s blocked by too many falls and rapids. That’s-what’s kept the country closed. Even Tyr­ rell couldn’t get into it.” “But there were no planes when Tyrrell made his survey,” observed- the, scholar. “It’s sure empty country,” assert­ ed the pilot, who had his own mem­ ories of the Anawotto. “That,” murmured the swan hunt­ er, “is entirely to my liking.” • “But you’re ' not entirely to my liking,” was the thought that hov­ ered about at the back of Slade’s, head. Lynn, he felt, was right. Yet he was their Santa Claus, as Cruger had expressed.it. He had paid well for service, and he’d get service. .SIade dismissed that thought and turned to. study the silver-winged Lockheed that rested on the waters of the Snye. It looked spick and span in its new coat of aluminum. He realized, as he swung about, that the man in the bifocal glasses was also studying the Lockheed. “An attractive ship,” the scientist observed. “It was my intention to own her. But in that I was fore-, stalled by your friend Cruger:” Slade smiled at the ' sharpened note in the other’s voice. “You have to scramble for ’em, nowadays,” observed Cruger’s bush-; hawk partner. “So I.; am learning,” announced the swan-seeker. He said it casu-' ally. But some newer timbre in the speaker’s voice made Slade think Of- a . gun pit smothered in , tree branches. r The brief northern night was at ' its darkest when Cassidy, newly made, watchman for NorUind Air­ ways, shut off the radio. He sighed as he reached for his thermos at the end of the deal table and drained it of its last cupful of coffee.. Then,; lighting his pipe, he stepped out into the open and blinked about through the darkness. - - ' . He wished he could be having a second thermos of coffee. But there was no bright-lighted eating room in that third-rate outfit on the. edge of Nowhere. Its air lanes were as short of ships as its administration building was short of paint. Al) it was, in faith, was a rough-and-ready jumping-off place for a lot of luna­ tics who wanted to dig holes, in a 1 wilderness where the frost went deeper than the-gold, It could nev-' er be Classed, with.those high-toned airports he’d heard many a far-: traveled pilot talking about. -No, Cassidy decided as he made, his rounds,' this was . a melancholy place for a man of spirit. He didn’t like the quietness -of the hangar ' where the twin-motored Grumman amphibian stood surrounded by the' engine entrails'the workmen had left scattered about.. He was glad 'to * move down to'the dock edge, where- 'thOre -was a little sound of water- riffles against the. floats of the Post-,: craft that, would -be going out in three hours’ time. Beside ..it, the : only remaining ship in ,the harbor, loomed the new Lockheed that looked more like the ghost of a plane, . in the uncertain, starlight, than a workaday framework of met­ al and linen well covered with alu­minum. paint. , , It startled him. as he stodd watch­ ing it, that anything’ so quiet could - give birth to movement But as he watched he' saw a shadow detach, itself from the shadowy fuselage. He - saw that shadow drop to tee near-by float, and then leap, quick^boted,,to the dock edge. ' ' (TO BE OfNTlNVWJ - IMPROVED" UHIFORM international S UNDAY ICHOQL Lresson By HAROLD 'In LUNDQUlSTr D.

GOLDEN TEXT—In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.—Genesis 1:1. - What is to become of this world? That is, the question on tiro Bund and lips of everyone as they see all mankind engaged in a struggle which bids fair to wipe out every-, thing called civilization. In such a time it is good to remind ourselves that man did hot make this world, nor is it the product of natural forces, God made it.God, who is ■ eternal, infinite, knowing- all from the- beginning, is not moved by the impulses of the moment nor staggered by the catas­ trophes of a day. He made the world. He made man. He had a plan for them, and still has a plan -which in due season He will work out for His own glory. I. God Made toe Heavens and Earth (w; 1-5, 24-25)., The plain biblical account of cre­ ation—“In the beginning God”— stands as a .dignified, satisfactory, intelligent explanation of the origin of -things, and in bold contrast to tee coitoising and almost unbeliev­ able theories of men. The best of scientists admit that they, know nothing of the origin of things, and some even confess that they never will know., The answer to the query with which every hu­ man philosophy opens is the af­ firmation'with which the divine ac­count in Genesis opens—“In the-be­ ginning God.” Space forbids full discussion of the account of creation, but a study of it will reveal its beautiful, order, symmetry, and completeness. Sci­ ence, when it gets beyond theories to facts, finds them confirmed by Scripture. Please do not reverse that and speak of science confirming Sdripture. If my watch, does not agree with the time of the stars, it is the watch that must be reset. H. God Made Man in His Own Image (w. 26-30). Although man,; under the control of Satan, does not give much ground for the observation, it is neverthe­ less true that he was made in thd likeness and image of God. Because that is true, we never give up hope- for him. That image, no matter how deeply, defaced by sin, still may be touched by redeeming grace and restored to fellowship with God. The likeness and image of God. in man undoubtedly refers to a moral and spiritual likeness. Man is a living soul with intelligence, feel­ ing, and will power. He is a moral being, knowing the difference be­ tween right and wrong. He is a self-conscious, personal being. -To man God gave dominion over tee earth and all its. potential pow­ ers. Sometimes one has been hope­ ful that man was making good prog­ ress in the development , of the earth’s resources for his own good and the'glory of God. But one is almost tempted to conclude now teat he has used this great God-given opportunity only for destruction and death. Only a revival of real Chris­ tianity can bring -him back to his senses. Let us pray and work for it. Observe that the family was es­tablished as the center of man’s life on earth, as God gave him a. “help meet unto him.” Woman was taken “not . out of man’s head that She should rule over him; nor out of his feet to be trampled upon; but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to ,be pro­ tected by him, and near his . heart to be loved by him” (Matthew Hen­ ry).The decay of family life and the substitution of social or civic units as the basis of life have led to. dis­ astrous results. Not only do we need a revival of religion, we also need a revival of the home life of the nation. ; HI. God’s Creation 'Was Com­plete and Good (1:31; 2:1). ; When men do recognize the band of God in creatioU they all too often seem to feel that what' He made teas very limited .and' defective. .It would almost-seem teat Gbd ought to be grateful that man has been so clever about perfecting His work, developing it and making it useful. As a matter of fact, God who had all knowledge and whose standards are higher than .man’s Standards could possibly be, looked- over His. creation and “behold, it was very good” , (v. 31). It w as-a‘‘finished” job (2:1). »,v Man has destroyed, much of its beauty. Sin Came in and;' marred toe whole creation. What man’s in­ ventive Cleverness,, has developed of the possibilities of thisvworld is' only a minute fraction of . what is yet available. InsteUd of'boasting,- man might well/ be ashamed of-the, pathetic slowness With which. Ke has “thought God’s thoughts after Him.” Instead -of fighting -and destroy­ ing, he ought to give his energies to building, developing, and above all to loving God with all his heart , and his neighbor, as himself (Matt.- 22: 37-40), This is God’s first and'great 'commandment to you and to me- All salads should be served cold and free from water.

C. WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON Consolidated Features—WNU Features. NEW YORK--In June, 1940, a few months after becoming gover­ nor of Alaska, Ernest Gruening said, “A few parachutists could take Aias- This Doc Doesn't He pondered Treat Eyes, Ears, the observa- BatUsesHisOwn Ji? " 0* th* late General William Mitchell, “He who holds (Alaska holds the world,’.’ and, a man of peace and a foe of imperi­ alism, the governor thereafter never missed a. chance to urge the stra­ tegic importance of Alaska, and to insist that “It has the greatest pos­ sibilities for an offensive of any land under the American flag.” Congress was not, at first, responsive. Just how effective the governor's pleas have been is still shrouded in the . mists of that frozen domain. The least insular of men, Dr. Greening has long been con­ cerned with insnlar affairs, and was chief of the division of terri­ tories of the department of the interior from 1934 to 1939, re­ceiving the Alaskan appointment on December 5 of the latter year. He is a doctor of medi­ cine, with a degree from Har­vard university, diverted to newspaper work early in his ca­ reer.. His studious bent has been such that he might have been put down for bookworm, had it not been for his success in prac­ tical affairs, notably running big town newspapers and making them pay. The son of a famous New York' eye and ear specialist, Dr. Gruening also had intended to treat eyes and ears, but began his career as an alert reporter for the Boston Ameri­ can. That led him to the.successive managing editorships of the Boston Herald, the Traveler and the Jour­ nal, the New York Tribune and the. New York Nation, with time out for his service as a private in the World war. A liberal and reformer, he began back-trailing our tentative adven­ tures in imperialism, in the Philip­ pines and in establishing our he­ gemony over the Caribbean. Enter­ ing the department of the interior he became the administration torch- bearer for a territorial New Deal. He was born in New York city in 1887. UOWARD MINGOS is a skilled writing man who also can add and subtract. This unique combina­ tion of talents naturally has made ,, ... him our cur-Howard C. Mmgos rent histori- AJohntheBaptist an of avia- Of Air WUderness tion ProS- ress, as edi­ tor of the annual aircraft year book, published by the aeronautical cham­ ber of commerce. The 1942 edition of the book, just out, says our plane manufacturers have some "frightful surprises,” for the Axis, which will jolt the enemy clear down to his cloven hoof.. “Who says it?” is the wary on­ looker’s natural query about, wartime news like that. The first answer, as to Mr. Mingos, and it is reassuring, is that he is cautious and never has gone off half-cocked in reporting avia­ tion news, good or bad. In 1937, he did not pull his punch in re­ porting the swift ascendancy of the German Luftwaffe over the British RAF. He has long sustained a reputation as a good reporter, on the New York Sun for quite a spell. He is the au­ thor of more than 1,000 articles on aviation in newspapers, and maga­ zines, and several books. “The Air Is Our Concern” was the subject of a book on which he collaborated in 1935. He now gets long over-due agreement on that. After his graduation from his home town high, school in Athens, Pa!, young Mr. Mingos studied two years at the Philadelphia School of Industrial Art, then switched to a long stretch of newspaper work, with the Philadelphia Telegraph, the Scranton Republic, the New York Times and Sun. From 1922 to 1930, he was special contributor of avia­ tion articles to the Times. Withttie volunteer air service of the U. S. army, overseas,: in the first World war, he became a special represent­ ative of the aeronautical chamber of commerce in 1920. He is 51 years old, our outstanding professional score-keeper in air doings.— ♦ — A NY day now we may get word that swarms -of American planes, manned by Americans, are fighting and bombing with the Brit­ ish over Germany. Maj. Gen. James E. Chaney will wing them eastward, as commander of all American army forces m the British Isles. He is a flying general, a military stu­ dent of the German mdustnal re­ gions m the post-war years, an in­ ternational authority on military avi­ation; on tactics, fighting and bomb­ ing interception. He'is 57, and grad­ uated from West Pouit m 1908.

METRO’S “ M rs.-M in iv er” will probably be. one of the best rem em bered w ar pic­ tures that have reached the screen, not m erely because it is well directed (by William Wyler) and superbly acted, but because it deals with a typical fam­ ily, facing the war ,at home. It vividly presents .the sort of situa­ tions that we might have had to deal with in this country. Incident­ ally a “Mrs. Miniver,” rose has been developed, named for the one in the picture; it is dedicated to “the unselfish and sterling qualities of American women in the war," women like the one whom Greer Garson plays so movingly in the film. Don’t miss “Mrs. Miniver!” Buddy Clark, young baritone of radio’s “Hit Parade,” has an im­ portant role in HKO’s “Sweet or Hot,” starring Lucille Ball and Vic­ tor Mature. His comedy specialties BUDDY CLARK and songs last year won him one of the highest individual ratings on radio listener polls, but in the pic­ ture he’ll do more than sing; with Peter Lind Hayes and Arnold Stang he’ll play an army buddy of Mature’s. Alan Ladd attracted plenty of at­ tention and favorable comment dur­ing his stay in New York; as part of the campaign to introduce this new leading man to the public Para­ mount can consider the trip a suc­cess. But all the girls who eyed him admiringly realized that it was a case of “Hands off!” Mrs. Ladd (the former Sue Carol, once a movie star) was with turn, and they're devoted.— *— Joan Crawford is one screen mother who wants her daughter to follow in her footsteps. Looking at golden-haired Christina, now three, she remarked: “If die'isn’t an actress I’ll be the most disappointed person in the world.” Russell Hoyt, handsome 24-year- old North Carolina traveling sales­ man signed by RKO1 reached Holly­ wood without an iota of dramatic experience. A friend, an agent and a talent scout were responsible, and' he got a contract without even mak­ ing a test. — *— Gary Cooper can spend'his vaca­ tion traveling with the San Fran­ cisco Seals as the ball team’s assist­ ant manager if he wants to. He was invited by Lefty O’Doul, the man­ ager, who taught him to bat .and throw left-handed for “The Pride of the Yankees.” As part of his war work, Ronald Colman is making three films this year; during the past six years he’s made only one a year. Hie bulks of his income will go to the govern­ ment in taxes. During the last war he served with Kitchener’s “Con- temptibles,” saw action at Ypres, was woimded at'Messines, and he holds the Mons medal with 1914 bar. His next picture is “Random Har­ vest.” Eric Blore celebrated his SOth pic­ ture role when he began work in Paramount’s “Happy Go Lucky,” which stars Mary Martin and Dick PowelL Once on the London stage, with time out for serving in the last war, he’s been in demand in Holly­ wood since 1934. Warren Hull, Parks'Johnson’s new “Vox Pop” partner, is instantly rec­ ognized by young radio followers as “The Green Hornet,” a role he played in a screen serial.. He was. besieged by. juvenile autograph hunters in an Alexandria, Va., store. — *— Phil Baker ought to be happy; the one thing that visitors to New York seem to' want more than any­ thing else is tickets to his “Take It or Leave It” broadcasts.- ODDS AND ENDS-Edward G.

Time for Jam With the arrival of the fruit and jelly season, you homemakers will want to make the most of these garden products aSbftW J i n il ll f°r w inter use.This year it is doubly important for you to can fruits and jellies wisely, as this will help you not only in conserv­ ing the nation’s resources, but also assure you of delicious accompani­ ments to your, meals during cooler weather. Since sugar is used in canning not only as a sweetener, but as a preservative, the government will allot five pounds of sugar per per­ son, in addition to what you rece|ye in your ration, so that you will have sugar for canning. *Ripe Raspberry Jam. (Makes -10 6-ounce glasses) O i caps prepared fruit 6 caps sugar I- box powdered fruit pectin To prepare fruit, crush thoroughly or grind about 2 quarts fully ripe raspberries. Remove some of seeds by sieving part of pulp, if desired. Measure sugar -into dry dish and set aside until needed. Measure pre­ pared fruit into a 5- to 6-quart ket­ tle, filling up last cup or fraction of cup with water if necessary. Place over hottebt fire. Add pow­ dered fruit pectin, mix well, and continue stirring u n til m ixture coipes to a hard boil. At once pour in sugar, stirring constantly. (To reduce foaming, Vt teaspoon but­ ter may be add­ ed.) Continue stirring, bring to a full rolling boil, and'boil hard I minute,. Remove, from fire, skim, pour quickly. Paraffin hot jam at once. Jam takes slightly less sugar than jelly, and you will work an economy by making use of the fruit in addi­ tion to the saving on sugar: *Ripe Blackberry Jam. (Makes 11 6-ounce glasses) 414 caps prepared fruit 614 cups sugar I box powdered fruit pectin To prepare, fruit, grind or crush thoroughly ajxrat 2 quarts fully ripe blackberries (not black caps).

Measure sugar into dry dish and set ^ aside unto needed.' Measure prepared fruit into a 5- to 6-quart kettle, filling up last cup or frac­ tion of cup with water if necessary. Place over hottest fire, adding powdered fruit pectin, mix well, and continue stirring until mixture comes to a hard boil. At once pour in sugar,, stirring constantly. (To reduce foaming, 14 teaspoon butter may be added.) Continue stir­ ring, bring to a full rolling boil, and boil hard ! . minute. Lynn Says: The Score Card: The status of j. tin available for commercial can- I ning has at last been clarified, and now we know exactly what will be available to use by way of I canned goods..I The “Bifi Four”, in canned vege- . tables,- peas, tomatoes, string beans and corn, plus asparagus, j pears, peaches, evaporated milk I and fish will be allowed unlimited amounts of tin for canning pur­ poses. “Secondary” . products such as spinach, beets, cherries, berries, applesauce, - grapefruit, sausage, luncheon meats, beef and others will continue to be canned, but they win be aflowed only the same amount of tin as used in 1940, with some exceptions, hav­ing more or less. FoodS packed last year win last until fan at least, and the goods packed this year win be availa­ ble even before last year’s are gone. There’s no need to hoard.

Do not use more than 2 cups, of com syrjip in any rdcq>e,- howeyer, as this will give unsatis-' factory results. In a powdered fruit pectin recipe, you may use I cup light com syrup for each cup of sugar omitted.

Admiral Nimitz pronounced Mid­ way a partial accounting for -what happened at Pearl Harbor. But Pearl Harbor was more than an at­ tack on the American navy. It Was also an; attack on the American home. The navy can settle .in hill as an ocean force, but the American peo­ ple must settle in toll as a fighting'' nation. The Pearl Harbor account will be settled when the last con­ centration camp is a public park. And when a worker in Europe has the dignity of a human being, in- 1 stead of the standing of a driven slave. It is America’s doty to de­ mand fall payment. The ques- - tion of oar future depends, on how much toe enemy is made to. an- . swer for its past. The liberties won on the freezing slopes at Valley Forge were almost lost in a dirty beer cellar in Munich. While France is bound, while Nor­ way is in prison, and while Belgium is in chains, America will never be fully free. Our monument to Pearl Harbor must be a milestone in world progress. That can only begin to happen when all men realize that the peace cannot be kept while criminal leaders remain in power to start a war. New York Newsreel: \ .

CLOSET WITH DRY AIR AN OFF- - SET TD MILDEW A LL summer long come , reports of dampness and mildewing in summer houses near toe ocean or other. Uurge bodies of water. Iq hu­ mid and rainy periods toe air of these houses is lflcely to be so damp that mold forms,on clothing, and especially on shoes and other leath­er articles. O newaytoget around this- is to utilize heat radiated by the kitchen chimney. This can be done by building closets around toe chimney. The volume of heat thrown out-by the chimney is not gTeat, but it is continuous, and toe air in these closets is dry enough to prevent mildewing. Another idea is to .set an electric bulb on the floor of toe closet and to bum it continuously. With the door shut, enough heat wiU be thrown out to keep toe closet air dry. The bulb need not be large; 25 watts will have a decided effect. CEire Should be taken to keep Einything burnable out of contact with the bulb. It should not Ue on the floor, but.be on a safe lamp base. ' - Septic Tank Drain -Question: AU our drain pipes run into the septic tank. I recently heard that the kitchen sink drain toould not be connectedto toe tank because of possible damage from soapsuds and drain cleaning compounds. Is this true?. Answer:. For best results the kitchen sink should be connected to a septic tank- through a separate drainpipe provided with a grease- trap. This trap wfll' separate the grease from the rest of toe drainage and you wfll not need to use a drain cleaning compound. Also, the op­ eration of the septic- tank' wfll be greatly improved. Any plumber can instaU a grease-trap. Refinishing a Table Question: Can I refinish a kitchen table top made of wood? The finish would have to be water resistant, and not require frequent refinishing. Answer: Refinishing with a quick- drying synthetic resin varnish is one method. Another is to apply sev­ eral 1Soaking coats of boiled linseed oil. Allow each coat to soak in for an hour dr two, then wipe off the surplus.. After two or three such appUcations and after time for dry- -ing begin polishing with , a rough cloth, such as a piece of'did car­ peting, wrapped around a brick. The more the surface is rubbed .toe bet­ter the finish will be. Color for Walls Question: We wish to-paint toe walls of our living-room, but cannot decide on the right color. We have a plain rose broadloom rug; a soft green sofa and a large rose chair. Can you suggest a color for toe WEtils? * - Answer: My own preference for the walls would be a very Dght shade of dusty rose, so pale that it is hardly noticeable. However, I suggest that you visit one of yqur lrnge department Stores to consult the interior decorator. Stitins ,on Copper Question: Li repairing a large cop­ per window frame, muriatic acid was sprayed on its tower part The result is a sprinkling Of what looks like rust on toe tourer part of toe frame. The acid has Etlso stained a part of the -slate root - What will remove-toe stain? Answer: Acid that remains in toe copper and on toe slate cad be. neutralized by washing with house­ hold ammonia. The stains can then be removed with fine steel wool or sandpaper. . Removing Asbestos Paper Question: Several yetus ago toe hot air pipes in' our ceUar were cov­ ered with E^bestOs paper. I find that this is a mistake, for the cellar is too cold and the flows above toe cellar are Etiso cold. How can toe asbestos-be removed? Answer: The kind of paste usually used with asbestos paper can be softened . by soaking with water However, this wfll probably soften toe paper so much that it will tear when being'taken off. . Oak Chairs' - Question: Whaf, would be toe best way to finish some ordinary oak chairs'from which toe finish has already been removed? ' Answer: If a Dght finish is de­ sired, finish .with two thin coats of a quick drying VEurnisb. For darker effects; first stain toe wood with an oil stain of a-desired color. For best results follow .toe'directions on the IabeL Finish with two coats of. quick drying .varnish. .B nm ed'Food 1 Question: How can burned food be removed from the bottom of an ahmunum kettle?

Distress of Nation. “And there shall be signs In the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts falling them for fear, and for look­ ing after those things which are coming on the earth; for the powers of heaven shall be shaken, then shall they see the Son of coming in a cloud with MOCKSVILLE. NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY. JULY 9. *941 mm begin to come to up, and lift up redemption draweth nigh.” —St. Luke 2 1 :25 -28 . That we are living in a time of distress among nation not be questioned by any thought­ ful, considerate, thinker. Much of this prophecy given us by our Lord Jesus Christ is in plain fulfillment Lord Jesus Christ is in plain fulfill­ ment before our very eyes. The nation of the earth are distressed and perplexed. They are wonder­ ing what is going to happen; what will come next. Multitudes are depending upon man power to lead them through their distress and perplexity, but it is impossible. Rulers, armies and mighty machine guns, airplanes and munitions of war can never save us. Only God can, therefore how tremendously important that we trust Him. As to whatever signs there may appear in the sun, moon and stars before the coming of our Savior; and as to whatever the roaring of the sea and waves may mean, I am not able to say, mors than that it may apply more to people, lan­ guages and tongues, or to the rest. Iessness and upheavals of men and nations, than to the ocean of water. However, there may be unusual phenomenons in nature, just pre­ ceding the coming of Christ; but this we do know, that distress and perplexity of nation is upon us. SURELY. And that the hearts of men are failing them for fear, “and for looking after those things which are coming on earth," is a positive fact that we cannot gainsay. In­ deed, men are distressed and great­ ly perplexed. But The Sad Thing Is, That The Vast Multitudes Turn To Macbin eiy For Protection, Instead Of God. just how near to the fulfillment of the following prophecy given by our Lord, I am unable to say, but from all signs it seems that we are very near; “Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us,’’ (Luke 23 :30). “And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, Md themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; and said to the mountains and rocks. Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb; for a great day of Ms .wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?’’ (Rev. 6 :15-17). Saint Paul, prophesying of the coming of Christ, has this to say: “Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Tesus Christ, and by our gathering to, gether unto him, that ye be Dot soon shaken in mind, or be troubled' either in spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man de ceive you by any means; for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; who opposeth and exal- teth Mmsetf above all that is called God, or that is wonhipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself to be God.

The Record I* only $1.00. yet with you, I told you these things?” (TI Thess. 2:1 5). That the falling away, of which Paul was speaking upon us, like­ wise cannot be denied. We call it the “Great Apostasy.” Just how much worse it will be, before our Lord’s return, we are unable to say. However, we must admit that there is a tremendous falling away, mor­ ally and spiritually, among the na­ tions. Churches are closing their doors, congregations are dropping off, Sunday Schools are losing, and there is a great decline in rlvivals; but in the meantime, the movies are getting the crowds, the places of amusement and entertainment are packed and cro wded. Men and women are spending their money for beer, liquor, tobacco, and for evils of all kinds, while the cause of God goes without interest to them. There is a tremendous spiritual de­ cline; and-deadness throughout the earth. This surely points to the near Teturn of our Lord. Let’s watch, pray, be robed, add all ready. This is no time to quit. Our redemption draws nigh. Let’s be true and faithful, lest we lose our crown. Pays And Recently a group of city business taxes, strike threats, governmental etc. AU echoed a loud se suggested that he was inclined to buv a farm and thus dodge all of these problems. It sounds like a simp] but we rather think these same would feel, a year or so later, that they had jumped from the frying pan into the fire They might find higher compared with income; and, when they bought cer tain essential merchandise or equip- they would probably discover s were following their heels. While the farmer is a producer1 be is also one of the ’s largest consumers. AU the costs of strikes, labor troubles, high taxes and increased material costs are all reflected in the prices be is obligated to pay for clothing, paint, lumber, processed food;. yes, even farm implements. It sounds like “easy money” when a farm boy who has been driving a tractor for $50 per month and board, goes to a government defense project and for the same work receives $12.00 for 8 hours, and $18.00 for 8 hours on Satur­ day and Sunday, a total of. $96.00 per week or about six times his former wage for similar work. At the same time his brother or a neighbor’s boy is conscripted for military service at $1 00 per day and “keep,” If the farmer needed government help to make ends meet when he was paying $50.00 per month for tractor drivers, how in the world is he going to buy necessary sup­ plies and equipment when such merchandise costs must include the much higher labor and material plus the increased taxes required to defray the tremendous expenditur. es of the National Defense Program. On the basis of $1.50 per hour and a 40 -hour week, with time-and- a-half for overtime, applied to a. griculture, we would like to have some statistically-minded economist tell us what the farmer would have to get for his wheat or pork or beef, and what wages would have to be paid labor, so they could then meet the higher cost of existence. Somewhere, by some one, at some time, we have been assured that all would share equally in the socrifices necessary to insure nation­ al defense. It is one thing to advocate a high wage for industrial labor so that increased markets may be de­ veloped for farm products but no one can make us believe that the average carpenter, plumber, brick- tnason or tractor-driver is going to eat the amount of food represented by the great disparity between the current wage for labor and the in­ come received by the farmer for much longer hours and harder work. Economists tell us of the terrific drain on the U. S. Treasury that would result from increasing AAA 'parity payments” to $450.000,000, and yet other Federal Departments are spending billions, a large pro­ portion of which goes to organized labor. Countless cases have been cited where ordinary laborers, upon payment of union dues, have be come master craftsmen over night and entitled to the “prevailing wage.” This is no time for acreage re­ ductions, plowing under of crops or pig killing—food helps to win wars—but it is high time that a better balance be struck between what the farmer gets for his work and wbat be has to pay labor for needed merchandise and equip­ m ent—" F a r m Machinery Equipment.” Dam Builders Plan To Sue High Point The High Point board of power commission has been notified by I S iS I iiiii - struction Co., that suit for $375,000 will be filled within next few days against the city alleged breach of contract in.ta. «1, . n ■■ ■■ niM— ,,el r>section wits toe construction which has contract for dam spillway, notified the board “friendly” action must be to avoid possible nullification of client’s claim under the statute the Ms of The company several months a go filed claims with both the board and city conncil, alleging that the city breached a contract by not or­ dering construction of the power project within the time specified in the agreement.

It appears that the.New Deal has been frightened away from its pur­ pose to empower the President to seize whatever property he thinks is needed for national defense. The outcry from Republicans and con servative Democrats was too great to permit such a bold operation at this time. Request for the power, however, indicates the radicalism of those seeking it. Perhaps this effort to permit socialization of the Nation will be attempted again. New Dea­ lers never surrender their ultimate objectives. Eternal vigilance a gainst the eosmles at home of the American system is more necessary now than ever before. Seen Along Main Sheet By The Street Rambler. 000000 Mrs. John Green Benson looking L. P.

I * WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON , (Consolidated Features—WNU Service.) N EW YORK.—There are many old-timers who won’t like this war, when and if it comes our way. There will be no Captain Thome, of W ork in Army Service,” Commumcations f ^ g V critical Morse message and no Wil­ liam Gillette about whom a drama of communications may be built. They scrapped the Morse, for good and all about two years ago. There’s no more hand work in army communications. These nostalgic thoughts were prompted- by the participation of Maj. Gen. Joseph O. Mauborgne in the big doings at Fort Monmouth, N. J., recently, with a troop review by the general and an amateur play, “The Bottlenecks of 1941,” and many other spirited goings on in which the general was prominently featured.. General Mauborgne, chief sig­ nal officer of the army, is the Thomas Alva Edison of aviation radio—in the army at any rate. It was in October, 1912, that the then Lieutenant Mauborgne in­ stalled the first radio set in an airplane, at Fort Riley, Kan. Ihe army had IZ planes then, and aviation meant signal corps, with planes first conceived as primarily useful for observation and signalling. Lieut. “Hap” Arnold, who later was to become head of the army air corps, flew one of the planes to Fort Riley for the installation. There was much excitement, all over the coun­ try, *when Lieutenant Mau- borgne’s cumbersome quenched spark radio set managed to waft a few signals earthward. There was still more excitement when, in 1914, the lieutenant achieved the first two:way communication between an airplane and a ground station. He had started something there and came along with it, to today’s miracles of aerial chatter. He at­ tained his present rank September 15, 1937, having been for the pre­ vious year director of the radio lab­ oratory at Wright Field. For 29 years his work has been an un­ ceasing concentration on develop­ ment and experiment in aviation radio. His career is one of many recent reminders of our possibly un­suspected high degree of prepared­ ness in varied and highly specialized trained personnel. •---- CO FAR, Victor Emanuel has been J thwarted in his lifetime ambition to win the Kentucky Derby and the Grand National. However, he EmanueVsPlanes speed com- To Hit Line First petition which mayIf Ponies Do Fail chalk this day up in the big history book. After all this wistful talk about the United States releasing a blizzard of airplanes if it ever could get into mass production, Mr. Emanuel’s company, Vultee Aircraft, Inc., an­nounces that it is swinging into the straight-line, conveyor-belt output which, in automobile production here, made all other countries just added starters. The system has been proven and the Vultee com­ pany says it will quadruple its pro­ duction. Most war talk seems to boil down to just about that possibility. Mr. Emanuel has made a shift from finance to management, partly under circumstances over which he had no control, and management would seem to be the gainer. When, in 1926, at the age of 28, he inherited the $95,- 000.000 National Electric Power company from his father, the utilities field wasn’t safe for amateurs. The company caught the acquisitive eye of the late Samuel lnsull. But Mr.; Eman- • uel started over again, building the United States Electric cor­ poration and thereafter protect­ ed himself nicely in the clinches. He was born and grew up in Dayton, Ohio, fount of aviation genius, and was educated in the University of Dayton and Cornell. His father was Albert Emanuel, util­ity financier. Vic Emanuel’s interests have been divided. He expatriated him­ self in England for a few years, having a wonderful time as master of the Woodland Pytchley hounds. He bought the 800-year-old Rocking­ ham castle and rocked the country­ side with a party of about 1,000 guests—imported- Americans and British nobility—which' made the British generously admit they had never seen a real party before. Now he may show them something about making planes in a hurry, which probably interests them more than parties at this moment.

WHITMAN , (© Roeet B. Whitman—WNU Service.) 1 CarefnI Home-Owner A . HOME owner writes ,of the care he gives to Mo copper screens on taking them down. “I lay them flat; brush all the dust off on both sides, then rub lemon oil on both sides, and stand on edge in a rack in my garage. They. are . just as good today as when I bought them; not a rust spot, and almost as bright as when new. Taking care of them counts and pays. I also have some 72 agricultural tools. Every time one is used, it is brushed off, wiped off with', a rag soaked with kero­ sene and stood in a rack. It makes no difference whether I use a rake or a hoe ten times a day; it gets the same treatment each time it is used. Result? My tools are still as good as when I bought them 11 years ago. I do not loan any of them. There is a sigh in my ga­ rage where I keep them that reads, ‘Please don’t ask to borrow any of my tools—I won’t ask to borrow any of yours.’ Result, I’ve still got them all.” Rerooling Problem Question: My house has a wooden shingle roof, 18 years old. Roofing men who have figured on the re- shingling job say it is useless to place new shingles over old shin­ gles, as the roof will rot and the job would have to be done over with­ in six years; otherwise, they will guarantee a new job for 15 to 20 years. Is this correct? Would wood­ en shingles be better than asbestos, or other type of shingle? Answer: I cannot agree with the roofers. With a good-reroofing job the old shingles will dry out thor­ oughly and will stay dry, thus elim­ inating any further rotting. The Red Cedar Shingle bureau states: “It is wasteful and unnecessary practice to strip off the old shingles.”—Any type of shingle is quite satisfactory, provided it is of a good grade and of a standard brand. Cleaner for Paneling A question was recently asked on the cleaning of footprints and finger marks from planks of knotty pine that were to be used for paneling. A reader noticed this, and writes that in cleaning up the boards for his place in the country, which is entirely finished in knotty pine, he found that denatured alcohol did a good job. “I wet a cloth with alco­ hol and rubbed with the grain for the entire length of a board. The grain was not raised. In finishing paneling for bedrooms and bath, it was given two coats of penetrating wax. In kitchen and living-room, paneling was given a coat of white shellac thinned with an equal quan­ tity of denatured alcohol, and then rubbed down with fine steel wool, which gave an extremely smooth fin­ ish. A clear sealing coat was then used.” China Figure Lamp Question: How can I mend a china figure lamp that has the heads bro­ ken off? This is a clean break and I have tried several kinds of glue without success. Answer: You npst first remove all of the glue on'-toe china. If one of the lacqu-. Ts types of cement were used, lacquei’thinner will remove it. Other gljies may be removed by scrubbing, with a strong washing soda solution. When the surfaces to be mended are clean and dry, cover both surfaces with a thin coat of white lead paste. The parts are then bound together and the paste al­ lowed to harden for at least a month. No ,strain should be placed on the break for at least six months. Soiled Plaster Question: An unfinished plaster wall is badly soiled. I have tried to clean it with wallpaper cleaner, but with no success. What can I do?Answer: An unfinished plaster wall is so porous that soil marks sink into it too deeply to be re­ moved; no cleaner will get into the plaster deeply enough to take them out. The only remedy is to put on some sort of a finish; cold water paint, calcimine, oil paint or paper. If the plaster is greasy, as will be the case in a kitchen, it should first be cleaned with a grease cutter such as washing soda. Cinder Flooring Question: My two-car garage has a flooring of cinders, which natural­ly is quite a dust nuisance. The landlord does not care to go to the expense of a concrete floor at pres­ ent. Could I treat the cinders in some way to obtain a somewhat smooth and dustless surface? Answer: The cinders should be well tamped down, then the surface sprinkled with calcium chloride flakes. Your city or county road commissioner can tell you where the calcium chloride can be pur­ chased. Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using this chemical. Painting a Picket Fence Question: I am anxious to know if it is practical to paint .a white picket fence 200 by 180 feet by spraying it? Who does work of this kind in the average community? Answer: Spray painting will be much faster than brush painting; but you should first inquire if the neighbors object to the fumes and fine particles of paint which may float in the air. Many painting con­tractors have portable paint spray­ ing machines. You will find their names listed in the classified tele­ phone directory, • ’ \tu f J ltfM tt G U a m ie * 4 \ m # THF.

Of course if you’ve had little past experience in the culinary field, there’ll undoubtedly be at least one batch of “heavy” biscuits, a “fallen” cake or two, and even burnt toast . . . but don’t let mis­ takes bother you too much . . . and he’ll soon be “crowing” about your So-o-o Good Meals! Because I’m convinced that the ability to make really good pie is a highly desirable quality for any young woman to possess, especial­ ly a new wife, I’m presenting a few pie_ recipes for you to try in your leisure moments. If he likes desserts at all (most men adore them),, try your luck with lemon-chiffon, chocolate, rhu­ barb or even Spanish cream pie . . . And, if you’re careful to follow the foregoing suggestions, he won’t be able to resist that second piece!* * * I’ve captioned the column Easy As Pie . . . which perhaps gives an erroneous impression. Easy to eat, yes, but not always easy to make. Pastry is tricky, but once the technique of making it has been acquired, it isn’t easily lost. In making pastry remember these points: (I) unless you are making hot water pastry, have the ingredi­ ents for making pie crust cold; (2 ) cut shortening into the flour, using a pastry blender or fork; or, if you’re an experienced cook, and work quickly, blending in the short­ ening with fingers is permissible; (3) add water sparingly, using only enough to hold the ingredients to­ gether; handle dough as little and as lightly as possible after adding water; (4) roll out the dough on a lightly floured board or on a heavy canvas; (5) cover the rolling pin. with a child’s white cotton stocking —with the foot cut off—and flour it lightly; and (6) place the dough loosely in the pan to help prevent shrinking. Plain Pastry. 2 cups flour Vi teaspoon salt % cup shortening Ice water (about 6 or 7 tablespoons) Sift flour once before measuring. Sift together flour and salt.; Cut in shortening with two knives or pastry blender, making coarse pieces. Add as little water as possible to make dough stay together. Divide into parts large enough to make one crust and roll out on a well-floured board with as. little lundling as pos­ sible. *Chocolate Pie. Plain pastry : 2 squares unsweetened chocolate 3 eggs I cup cream 1 cup sugar 2 tablespoons soft bread crumbs % cup chopped walnuts Line a pie pan with plain pastry and pinch with fingers to make a LYNN SAYS: I want to pass on to you newly­ weds some tips for homemaking -that have the approval of hun­ dreds of cooks, mothers and housewives . . . Tin or aluminum frying pans will wear better if cold water is not poured into them while they’re hot. Boiling a new rope clothes line for a .few minutes in soapy water softens it and lengthens its life. A round whisk broom serves as an excellent clothes sprinkler. It gives a fine spray, sprinkles even­ ly, and'saves time. Grease spots may ..sometimes be removed from, wallpaper with a piece of blotting paper held against the spots with a warm iron. In plannihg meals, bacon should be considered as fat rather than meat,, because it contains so lit­ tle protein. '. THIS WEEK’S MENU Little Dinner for Two . Cube Steaks With Tart Dressing Potato Sticks Butter Lima Beans Bread or Rolls Green Salad *Chocolate Pie Coffee •Recipe Included fancy edge. Cut chocolate in pieces and melt over hot water. Beat eggs well, and add sugar, bread crumbs and melted chocolate. Mix well. Pour into the pie pan. Bake in a hot oven (375 degrees F.) for 20 min­ utes, or until filling is firm. When cold,- sprinkle with chopped nuts. Spread - with whipped cream and decorate with whole walnut kernels. • • * Just because it’s summer, don’t stop pie baking . . . merely change the Idnd of pie you serve. Spanish Cream pie has everything for a suc­ cessful summer dessert—it’s quiv- ery, cool, delicately flavored. To make the filling and pastry really boon companions, substitute orange juice for the water in the pastry. A half teaspoon of grat­ ed orange rind added to the flour for the pastry will give a special fragrance to it. Spanish Cream Fie. I tablespoon unflavored gelatin Vi cup cold milk 1 Vi cups scalded milk 2 egg yolks Vt cup sugar Vi teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 egg whites I baked pastry shell . Soften the gelatin in the cold milk 5 to 10 minutes. Dissolve over hot water, stirring constantly. Mean­ while, prepare a soft custard of the scalded milk, yolks, sugar and salt. Combine hot custard and hot: dis­ solved gelatin. Cool slightly, add vanilla, then fold in the stiffly beat­ en whites. Chill until quite syrupy. Pour into pastry shell. Let set be­ fore serving. Yield: 6 servings. * *. * ’ Sometimes it is fun to change the flavor of pastry by adding an extra ingredient - or two to the recipe. Cheese pastry, for example, is won­ derful for apple pie. Grated cheese is mixed with the flour. A half cup of grated yellow cheese is enough for the standard recipe. Spiced pastry is excellent for fruit pies, particularly peach, apple and apricot. Cinnamon and nutmeg, and perhaps a touch of cloves, are the spices to use. A teaspoon each of sugar and cinnamon and a fourth teaspoon of cloves will spice a batch of pastry. A little sugar also may be added.Crnmb Pastry. 2 cups crumbs, rolled fine or ground % cup melted butter Blend butter and crumbs. Line pie pan by firmly pressing in mix­ ture about one-fourth inch thick. Be sure to ,have it extra thick where sides of‘pan join. Bake in a 375- to 400-degree oven for 10 minutes. This pastry may be made of graham crackers, vanilla or chocolate wa­ fers or ginger snaps. And last but not least here’s a rec­ ipe for the pie that still leads other meal sign-offs by a wide' margin. Apple Pie. 4 Vi cups apples Vt teaspoon'nutmeg or cinnamon I teaspoon butter % teaspoon salt I cup sugar Line plate with pastry. Pare, core and slice apples. Mix sugar, salt and spice; put part of sugar in bottom of plate filled with apples. Cover with re­ maining sugar. Dot over top with bits of butter. Moisten edges of lower crusts; put. on upper crust and press edges firm- Iy together. Place pie on .bottom shelf or rack in oven and. bake in. hot oven, 450 degrees F., for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 325 degrees and bake, until fruit Is tender and juice begins to boil through perforations in crust. ’ (Released by Western Rewipaiwr PaieiiJ IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY IcHooL L esson By HAROlsb L, LUNDQUIST.

GOLDEN TEXT—So mightily grew the Word of God and prevailed.—Acts 19:20. War is the order of the day, and much as we may regret it the life of every one of us is affected by its feverish touch. Certainly no Chris­ tian has any pleasure in the violent hatreds of wicked men, and can only pray that somehow a righteous peace may come'to'this troubled world. There is a warfare, however, which we do-seek to foster and pro­ mote. We .,encourage it, ' and as Christians make a holy resolve to battle to the end. That is the' war­ fare against Satan and his hosts. As long as he rules in the hearts of men, and sin and wickedness are here,'we say, “Fight on, my soul."Christian life and service are pre­ sented in Scripture as a fight. We do’well to learn the methods and the weapons of this great spiritual con­flict; not stressing a belligerent note of strife against one another, and particularly not between the divisions of God’s army in the earth, but standing shoulder to shoulder in the battle against the Evil One. I. Attack for God (w . 8-10). The vigorous prosecution of a strong attack on the enemy’s posi­ tion is good military strategy, and good spiritual Warfare. The com­ mand of God is “Forward!” and His forces are not to binder their effectiveness by weak indecision or fear. Paul sets us an example in bis I. Bold Preaching (w. 8, 9a). Paul had met some disciples (19:1-8) Who knew only the baptism of John and did not have the Holy Spirit. Dr; Erdman rightly says that “there are many more like these twelve ‘disciples’ in the pews of Christian churches. They are sincere men, they hate their sins, they believe in the,.teachings of Jesus, they admire tile Sermon on the Mount, they yearn for the high­ est and best things, but they lack spiritual power. Why? Because they are ‘disciples of John,’ they have not fixed their hearts and their hopes upon a divine, risen, glorified Christ; they do not know ‘the grace of God.’ When, however, they learn the full gospel and yield themselves to Christ, they are not merely baptized with water, but also the Holy Spirit." . 2. Careful Teaching (w . 9b, 10). Three months of such preaching brought many converts, but there were also “hardened and disobedi­ ent” men whose opposition caused Paul to withdraw the disciples (learners)' to the privacy of a lec­ ture room for thorough instruction in Christian doctrine, a sort of Bible Institute of Ephesus. The church has largely failed in its teaching minis­ try and has thus weakened its effec­ tiveness against the enemy. To be strong workers for the Lord, Chris­ tians must know the doctrines of the Bible. H. Counter Attack by Aatan (w. 23-32). The enemy of our souls is often content to let us go on in compara­ tive, peace as iong as we do not both­ er him unduly, but once we put up the banner of a holy life and service in God’s army, he begins a terrific counter attack. Paul had. felt it already in the hardening of listen­ers’ hearts (v. 8), but now it began in dead earnest.I. By Selfish Opposition (w . 23- 27). One way to bring a violent reac­ tion against spiritual truth is to let it interfere with business. Demetrius and his fellow silversmiths pro­ fessed to, be concerned about the threatened destruction of the heath­ en worship of Diana (and what a fine testimony that was to the ef­ fectiveness of Paul’s preaching!), but in reality ,they were worried about the loss of their ungodly busi­ ness in charms (w. 25-27). Many of the enemies of the gospel in our time are fighting against God’s Word because they are in a business which is condemned by it. They know that every time a new convert is won to Christ they lose a customer and. it troubles them, Reader, if you are , in that kind of business, get out of it quick before God’s judgment falls upon you.. 2. Senseless Tumult (w . 28-32). Knowing that their opposition was without true foundation, they in­ spired and agitated a wild demon­ stration. Is it not astonishing how many thoughtless and foolish peo­ ple there are in the world who will senselessly follow the lead of some­ one who opposes God?Shouting a slogan which had no real meaning, they lent their voices to the tumultuous agitation against God. Finally, one sensible man, [earing the punishment of city of­ficials, quieted them. The Ephe- signs Were just like many in'our lay who fear man more than God. But, may we ask, if you fear the judgment of men, how think you to ;scape the judgment of God? After all, it is God and His Word you appose, unconverted friend. Do you hink He will hold you guiltless? . TDNAKE Pattern No: Z284 ALL of the quaint charm and beauty:of the rose has been captured, in this pieced quilt, so appropriately called Rose Point.

We can’t make him, unless we know for sure.” To attempt to compel him in any way, or even to disobey his com­ mands, was an action tainted with mutiny; and Mat, as the whispered discussion proceeded, repeatedly pointed this out.“He says Cap’n Corr was killed. He’s logged it that way; and he can’t go back on that, if it’s true or not. He’s got to stick to it; and short of handling him, there’s noth­ ing we can do.” “But I know he’s lying,” Mary pleaded. “I know Cap’n Corr’s alive.” She felt Corkran’s eyes upon her; and she appealed to him. “Don’t you, Corkran?” Corkran was a long moment in re­ plying; and before he spoke, his eyes swung from her to George. “Reverence,” he asked gravely, “what do you say? Are you for go­ ing back?” “Yes.” “Would you be thinking to satisfy the young lady, so she’ll know he’s dead? Is that maybe it?” “No. No, I’m sure he’s alive. He’s hurt, maybe. If he weren’t, he’d have come to die boats. But I think he’s surely alive.” “Then it’s knowing he’s alive that you’ll want to go back and get him?” “Yes, certainly.” Corkran stood up, and turning to the mate, said simply: “Mr. Forbes, if himself here says go back, then I say go. If he said not, I’d say no; but we’ll do what he’s wanting.” Mat Forbes nodded. “Yes, cer­tain. I’d say go back, if we’d any­ thing to go on. But it’s hard to say to Peter that he’s got to go back without knowing something.” "There’s a way to know,” Cork­ ran told him quickly. “Gee was with them ashore. Whatever happened, Gee knows. Gee’s hated Cap’n Corr, and talked killing ever since the Cap’n had him flogged. Maybe he was in this, maybe not; but what­ ever happened, he knows about it.” This was, clearly, true. If Peter had lied about Richard’s movements on shore at Hoakes Bay, Gee must know it. Mary whispered earnestly: “Yes, yes! Don’t you see, Mr. Forbes? Gee must know.” CHAPTER XVlU A half hour later Corkran reported that Gee, after some “persuading,” had given him enough information to justify turning back. Mat then led the way into the common room aft, and he moved with a certain heedlessness, careless of the noise he might make. There he. lighted one of the hanging lamps, and Corkran lighted another; and Mat turned toward the door of the Captain’s cabin where Peter was asleep. But before he could touch the door, it opened and Peter faced ftem. He stared from one to the other. There were six men and Ma­ ly, against him alone. Peter must have read their faces; and guilt for a moment flickered in his so plainly every man there could see it. He leaped backward and slammed the door shut; but before he could bolt it, Corkran’s weight against it forced it open and threw Peter headlong against the cabin wall, and Corkran after a moment’s struggle pinned him helpless, there.Then Peter, his voice cracking, asked in a sharp panic: “What is this, anyway? What’s the matter?” Mat Forbes said: “Bring him out here, Mr. Corkran.” “What’s the matter?” Peter de­ manded. “What is this, mutiny?” Mary, watching him almost with sympathy, thought again that his beard was like a mask behind which his eyes flickered. Peter cried: “Blast you, get out of here, back where you belong!”Mat Forbes spoke almost gently. “Mr. Corr, we’re going back to Hoakes Bay to find Cap’n Corr." “Find him?” Peter wetted his dry Ups. “He’s gone.” “We’U have a try, anyway.” “You can’t find him. I told you What happened to him!” * Mat said: “We’re going back to have a look, and Gee tells a differ­ ent story. “Gee?” This was Peter. “Yes. He says you told him to say a lion kiUed Cap’n Corr; but he says Cap’n Corr never came out of the tussocks on the way up the ridge.” “He’s a liar!” “Not Gee. He wasn’t lying. He knew it wasn’t safe to.” “Then you scared him. A scared darky will say anything you want him to. I tell you he’s lying.". “We’U go back and see for sure.” Mat asked almost pleadingly: “WiU you go along, sir? Or do we have to iron you?”Peter, seeming to consider, moved absently toward the desk. He stood, with one hand on top of it, looking down at it, his side toward them. Corkran had left the upper drawer a Uttle pulled out; and suddenly ,Pe­ ter’s hand dropped into that drawer.But before he could fetch the weapon clear, Corkran with a leap bore him sidewise and down. The heavy revolver clattered against the edge of the drawer, was jerked by his faU from Peter’s hand. Mat Forbes picked it up. Corkran held Peter flat, twisted him on his stom­ ach, dragged him to his feet. Peter was stony silent now . 1 Mat Forbes turned to Mary. “You :and Mr. McAusland move in here, into these cabins,” he said briefly. “I’U iron him to the mizzenmast.” Later Mat came to speak to her. He was white with strain, but his voice was calm and steady. “He’s secured,” he said. *Tve. left Mr.. Corkran with him, and the door’s bolted between. You’ll be safe here. I’U go caU the watch ‘and wear ship, make back for Hoakes Bay. We’U be there, with luck, soon after day. Mr. McAusland can Uke the Cap’n’s cabin. You have yours.” It was upon Mat Forbes Uiat the responsibiUty for the Venturer and those'aboard her now feU. Half per­ suaded by Mary, and then convinced by Gee’s enforced confession, he had accepted the necessity of leading what was technicaUy a mutiny. He had not read that treason’ never prospers, since if it succeed then none dare caU it treason; but he understood quite clearly the im­ plications of his own position. If Richard were found, dead or aUve, Mat’s action would be justified. If Richard were not found, then he and ‘TH shoot you if you do!” George retorted. those who had supported him in making Peter captive were simply mutineers, damned not only by the laws but by aU the tradition of the sea. So, for their salvation, Richard must be found. Mat, on the way back to Hoakes Bay, questioned Gee. The Negro repeated that he and Richard and Peter sUrted through the tail tussock grass up toward the pond where Uie geese had lighted; that they entered the grass abreast, and became separated in its maze; and that when he emerged at the upper border of the grass, he was first, and Peter presenUy appeared, but Captain Corr did not. Beyond that, he swore in beseeching terror, he Imew only what ihe mate had told him. “Believed what he told you, did you?” Mat demanded.. “Yas, suh.” Mat said evenly: “You’re a liar! There wasn’t any beach in the tus­ socks, nor any sea lions. Youknew well enough nothing like that hap­pened to Uie Cap’n in there.” With one strong motion he ripped Gee’s shirt off his back. “Get a boat spade, Rannels,” he directed. “Cut a hole through his small, cut the truth out of him!” Rannels said with a relish: “Take my knife. It’s nicked, and dull, and jagged as a saw; but you can hack a couple of rib-chops out of him with it.” ..... . At the fearful picture Rannels’ Words' evoked,' Gee surrendered alto­ gether and damned Peter beyond denial. He said the mate had given him a pearl, and promised him a rich reward- later, if he would tell the tale and stick to it. Gee.appeared to have no more to tell, but Mat had no remaining doubt of Peter’s guilt. Yet even so it Was necessary, that' Richard be found, alive or dead, for final proof. .Mat had no intention of evading the is­ sue. If Richard were not found, he must release Peter and. return him to command, and himself submit to the arrest that would follow when the Venturer reached Stanley. But if JUchard were found, then the situation would-be in Richarcl’s hands. So he must be found. ’Malt decided that when they came to an­chor again hi Hoakes Bay, he would send iCorkrsun-jto command and di-. rect the' - search ''aishore. Corkran was wise and strong. Mat himself, clearly, hSid better stay on board .the Venturer. Someone must keep an eye'on Peter, and on Gee; for -the:two. prisoners and the ship her- self were the key to the situation; ..So Mat would stay aboard. He meant to send ashore'as many men as possible, to prosecute the search for Richard with the best chance of success. George clearly could not go. His„strength-would not permit it. Mary would wish to stay with her husbands. ~ ' As matters developed, one other man stayed aboard the Venturer. After the anchor was down, since the wind..was freshening, Mat or­dered the sails., all furled. This meant sending the men aloft. Hurd, the little Cockney, descending after­ward, in some way fell the last few feet to the deck. He landed on his feet; but he howled with pain, and when he tried to stand he could not. Apparently he had broken a bone in his ankle, or suffered a severe sprain; certainly he would be of no use .ashore. , So when the boats put off, twelve men went In them; o t rather, eleven men and Tommy Haniine. Corkran commanded one . boat, Big Pip the other. Seven men and Mary were left aboard. Hurd was in the fore­ castle, Gee and Peter in irons be­ low, George in his bunk in the Cap­ tain’s cabin, Willie Leeper in his galley, and Mat and Rannels and Mary on deck to watch the boats depart. Rannels, like the other harpoon- ers, was by the etiquette of the ship restricted in his movements, forbid­ den to come to the after house ex­ cept on business. So while the boats moved away from the vessel’s side, he stood alone in the waist. Mary and Mat were together, by the rail just forward of the after house. They saw the boats land and saw the men haul them high and dry. It occurred to Mat to inspect Pe­ter’s irons. He called to the har- pooner: “Take a look at Gee, Ran­ nels.” The other man went obedi­ently .toward the. fore hatch, and Mat descended into the cabin with Mary.' He slid' back the bolt on the door between the common room and.the main cabin. Peter sat there at the table, his hands in front of him, the irons on his wrists passed through the loop of chain around the mizzen; and he met Mafs eyes, but he did not speak. Mat closed the door and bolted it again. When .he turned, Mary stood in, the door­ way of the Captain’s cabin; and George was on his feet inside the cabin, facing’her, and coughing a little.Mat Forbes felt rather than saw a shadow pass along the skylight over his head. He Iookedup sharp­ ly at the skylight, too late to sea anything; and then he took the re­ volver out of his . belt and cooked it and stepped quickly toward the companionway. He started to ascend. Mary came to the foot of the companionway; and his feet were level, with her shoulders, his head just emerging from the companion, when she heard the .crack of Uie smashing blow that felled him. . The revolver, without being dis­ charged, dropped out of his hand and clattered down to her feet. Mat slumped forward limply on his face, his body sprawling on the deck, his legs hanging down the companion- way. Rannels shouted something; and she looked up and saw the har- pooner, his face red with excite­ ment, grab Mat by the collar. Mary snatched the revolver from the floor; but Rannels hauled Mat out of sight before she could shoot. On deck someone came running aft. George crossed to her side, took the weapon from her. Looking up, he whispered: “What happened?” She was strangely not excited. “Rannels killed Mat!” she told him simply. Through the companion above them they could see the sky, the rain-filled clouds, the after raff. They heard Rannels speaking. “Watch the companion,” he pant­ ed, his voice thick. “I’ll go get him loose, and Gee. You stay here, and if anybody shows a head, bust ’em.” Mary did not know Hurd was aboard. She looked at George and saw, with a quickening respect and admiration,, that he was calm; that strength had run into him to meet this emergency. He said: - “Go get .the guns out of the rack and load them. I’ll watch here; Ir case they try to come down.” She said from across the cabin by the arms rack: '“It’s locked. Th* guns are locked in.” “Can you break it open?” “No! I don’t see how."“Then find the bomb gun.” She turned to look for that huge and awkward weapon. Someone tried the-bolted door between; and Peter called to them sharply:- “Mary, let me in.” George said strongly: “No, Pe­ter.” ‘-‘You sick-fool, I’ll break down the door.” Peter’s voice cracked as i| was likely to in moments of emo­ tion. . . . . . . “I’ll shoot you if you do!” George retorted. He .made a sign to Mary to hurry; his lips'shaped the words; “Bomb gun!” ; i.-> i -. : v Peter was whispering to Rannels In the main cabuu George and Mary ’could’ hear'the 7Murmufy.': but no .words. Mary, found the bomb gun, as heavy as a small cannon. Lucidly it was loaded. The voices in the m'ain cabin could’ no-longer’ be heard;’ and there .was no sotind on the deck ' above their heads. .She asked'-.George ' : >■ ' • “ Will Mat bomb explode if it hits anything?” ' • - , “I don’t know,” he admitted., “I dbn’t know How they work.” 'He grinned doubtfully. “Richard; said the back end of a gun like this does as much damage as the front, but it’s better than.nothing; and if the! bomb' hits anyone, even if it doentf explode, they’ll know it!” ' a o b e c o n t in v e iu . v By VIRGINIA VALE (Released by Western Newspaper Union.)

He was sitting 10 feet away in a station wagon, and had been for. half an hour—with a two-day growth of beard, and dressed, in the old work clothes he’d been wearing on his ranch. Louisiana seems to be a favorite setting for the movies right now. The revamped “Sunny,” in- which Anna Naegle stars, offers mild en­ tertainment with that background. Faramount is getting “Louisiana Purchase’’ under way by rounding up Hollywood’s 12 most beautiful girls for the screen version of the highly successful musical.

MiUer ron a piano onto the.set when they begin a new film together and start writing a song. They’ve done six pictures so far, and written and had published five songs. Now they’re at it again. The new two-violin arrangements Fred Waring is featuring are plot­ ted by Eric .,Siday, who studied to be a concert violinist and’ won an award as the best amateur violinist in England. Swing enthusiasts rave about them,.as played by Siday and Ferne. But 'Siday’d rather have, ap­ preciation for his. skill at.table ten- nis—he’s an expert at it.

Dry8 Winning Hard Fight If all the cltixena of Hw Uinltod State* wtre asked todaj; to go to the poll* and vote ye* or no on whether the nation should return to conatitutional prohibition, one out «< every three persons would vote yea. Surprising as that may sound to some, it is a fact verified by the most recent Gal­ lup 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 - , J1 JP80 per cent eight For »** . 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* lty. One of the Gallup statisticians calculated that if all the persons calling themselves dry had voted for the prohibition candidate in file last national election he would have re­ ceived about 16,000,000 votes. JUl this indicates that only a com­ paratively 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.H e rising tide of temperance sen­ timent is shown in reports reaching NationalW.C.T.U. of new supporter* of the dry cause. Slowly but sure­ ly, mass resent­ ment is beginning to be aroused In the American peo­ ple at the heart­less efficiency with which liquor sales promotion is carried on by the 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 given liq­ uor a chance since repeal—with the ever-more-evident result a convic­ tion, based on their own observa­ tion, that complete prohibition is the only real solution. Voters Say ttNon To Liquor Baoh year an increasing number of Americans decide the Uquor ques­ tion for themselves by making the liquor 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. They look around their own neigh­borhoods, mull over the easily visi­ ble effects of liq­ uor on parents, on car drivers and on youth, and then they decide —as their parents were forced to decide early in this century—that wthe best means of Choice liquor control is a resounding “no" at the ballot box. Not much gets into the press about fhe 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 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 Vot­ ed overwhelmingly dry. In Soutii Cardina the vot­ ers by referen­ dum o rd e re d their legislature to pass a state prohibition law. South Carolina has tried post-re- „ peal methods ofEleetionBesuIt control. Now its citizens say "Outright prohibition is the only answer.” Several states are reported plain ning attempts to secure outright prohibition, with church and tem­perance and welfare groups a n itin j 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 regula- . tion, they always return to complete prohibition as the only feasible an­swer to the evils of alcohol.

There are a great many prob­ lems facing the human race at pre­ sent, and a good many people are discussing them from the platform and in the press, and on the street, and there is a Babel of tongues that result in a great deal of confusion and make a great deal of noise without much real value. There is the economic problem, the financial problem, the taxation problem, and to cap all, the war problem. The papers are full of all these problems and the “ Morn, ing Shudder” and “The Evening Depressor” take away the average citizen’s appetite for breakfast and ruin his digestion for dinner. For after all, the greatest prob­ lem in the world is the HUMAN PROBLEM. We will never Have a better world until we have better people. And we will never have better people until the human race repents, turns around and goes the other way from the practice of hate and selfishness and greed, and be­ gins to practice love and friend­ ship and the Brotherhood of man. Jesus paid no attention to human governments. He lived under the worst Totalitarian government call­ ed the Roman Empire, and he nev­ er mentioned it but twice. He spent His whole time teaching men how to behave. For CONDUCT is what makes history, not know­ ledge of science nr sociology or languages or graduation from nni versitles that have never taught the student to love anyone. And until the human race begins to live as Jesus lived and tanght, we shall continue to have war and economic troubles and trouble of every sort. I have been waiting all my life to hear some member of onr Con­ gress stand up In the Senate or the House in Washington and tell the members the truth about human coudnct as Jesus taught it. I have never heard such a talk from any member of the Congress. They talk politics and economics and ev- erythlng but CONDUCT. It is Human behavior that the world needs today, the behavior that loves instead of hates and believes in friendship instead of force. And until we have that sort of a human race we shall always have human trouble on earth. The greatest Human Problem is the “ Human Problem,” And when that is settled all oth­ er problems will be settled. Children’s Home- Is Deeded To Junior Order Deed transferring all of the prop­ erty of the orphanage plant of Children’s Home at Lexington to the State Council of the Junior Or­ der of North Carolina was author­ ized a few days ago by the Nation­ al Council cf the order, in session at The State Council has had con­ trol of the properties aud been re­ sponsible for operation of the home at Lexington since early last year when the National Council decided to withdraw from maintaining the Lexington institution. It was nec­ essary to wait for the biennial meet ing of the national body. A considerable delegation from North Carolina went to Washing­ ton to attend the national meeting and received the deed for the $750;* 000 property. Among these was Shpt. Robert Bruton, Carr M. Ward, John Raker and Leo Leon­ ard from the local council. The next national meeting will be at Wilkes-Barre, Pa. BUYER MEETS SELLER L i "0 Oil For Japan. According to the figures of the Federal Power Commission, we are sending Japan more oil than the United States used for fnet in 1939, and that in March, 1941 . we sent Japan 50 per cent more oil than she got from us in 1940 . The total Ubited States oil consumption for 1939, our peak year, was 17,425,000 barrels. Our shipments to Japan last year amounted to 18,636,000 barrels. Is it reasonable to suppose that Japan needs all this oil for current uses? Is it not more reasonable to suppose that much of it either finds its way to Germany, or that Japan is hoarding it against the day when it may be needed to furnish the power to strafe our own soldiers and seamen? In the first place Japan is using much of it to fight China, our pro­ fessed friend. In the second place, Tapan, is an avowed supporter of the axis powers who are our poten. tial enemies. Then why this inconsistency. Is it because we are fraidy-cats? It must be admitted that official Washington has a .hard row to hoe, Time is an essential element in onr preparedness program. We are not as ieady as we would like to be to fight in two oceans. It is general­ ly admitted that for Uncle Sam to shut off this flow of oil would be the signal for Nippon to head for the rich oil supply in the Dutch East Indies—and American oil com. pany have an equity there. For Ja­ pan to do that would mean shoot­ ing. But it must be remembered that no longer than recently the Dutch refused to make the concessions Ja­ pan wrath, then why should we be mealy-mouthed about it? And we are just as inconsistent in other directions. We are selling oil to Spain, to Portugal, to Fin­ land, and in greater quantities than than heretofore, greater than their conceivable needs. Government officials declare that they are watch­ ful tor leakages. Maybe so', but the American public is. beginning to arch its brows. It is to the credit of American far-flung oil interests that they have expressed the willingness to sbnt the supply the minute government says so. It begins to look like that time is about ripe. — Statesville Daily.

Certainly this was true under the NRA, when the Roosevelut Ad. ministration threw to the winds the anti-trust laws and gave official santion to the monopolistic policies of Mg' business, if it actually did not command such action. Several years ago the Roosevelt Administration suddenly became enamored of the anti-trust laws and started a became enamored of the anti-trust laws and started a be- Iated and, as it turned out, half­ hearted effort to enforce them. As­ sistant Attorney General Thurman Arnold still is trying to enforce these laws but to hear some of the New Dealers talk about him you would suppose he was Public Ene­ my Number One. Now. the impact of the defense effort with its priority and price- fixing system—with the Adminis tration turning its head when rates go up—again falls heaviest on lit­ tle business. Indeed, numerous small establishments have been or are being crushed by their inability to obtain needed raw materials. Thus Peter R. Nehemkis, Jr., of the OPM’s defense contract service recently was quoted as lamenting: “It is one of the profound ironies of our defense effort that its total effect may well be to obliterate the smaller enterprises from the Ameri­ can business scene.” Bread Upon TheWaters Unity and Sacrifice” is now the twin-cry of the New Dealers. Most of the American people have laid aside their personal distaste for the New Deal and answered the call to nnity. Today the country (s not divided on the stated objec­ tive of the Administration’s for­ eign policy—all aid to England short of war. But where is this sacrifice that we hear so much about? Except for the patriotic draftees, who has even been asked to make a person­ al sacrifice? Certainly all the New Deal office holders are not making any sacrifice. They are carrying on nobly under the slogan “ money and spending as usual.” Labor is encouraged not only to make no sacrifices but to demand gains. Business is granted its right to a reasonable profit. Payments to farmers are sharply raised Every pressure group is having its inning. Small wonder, then, that labor just can’t believe it when the New Deal suddenly demands that they do not halt work on vital war ma­ terials. For eight long years, la­ bor even more than the rest of the conntry, has heard nothing from the Government but speeches about what "it deserves to GET. The New Deal has succeeded only too well in teaching the country its sel­ fish slogan “how to RECEIVE.” Why should there now; be any surprise that labor and the country prised that labor and . the country; hasforgotten how to GHTEii The. following paragraph a re words uttered by the late Thfmdore Ropsevel tRoose veil: ' Onr country calls', not for the; life ofease, butfdrthe life of strenn ons endeavor The twentieth cen tury looms before us big with the fate of many nations.

This startling statement comes trom Representing Aclolph J. Sa- bath, Democrat, Chairman of the powerful House Rules Committee. He made it in a recent speech to the House In which he also said “no man ever lived who has tried harder to protect onr institutions, protect our Nation and the demo­ cratic form of Government than onr great President, Franklin D. Roosevelt.” The second statement has been challenged so often and so effec­ tively that the less said about it the better. It is Mr. Sabath’s at­ titude itself that interests and rath­ er frightens us. It seems to be a form of the old rubber .tamp attl tude—'“the king can do no wrong.” If the Democratic gentleman had used the phrase “loyal New Deal­ er” instead of “loyal American, his attitude could be dismissed as simply partisan. A loyal New Dealer might overlook the fact that the Navy says that it is 19 per cent behind in its receipt of air. planes, that the OPM has revealed a decrease in the number of war­ planes manufactured in May, that Deputy Director Batt of the OPM has said : “ Certainly the officers of the War and Navy Departments are not sat­ isfied with our prsgress. Certainly the officials of the Office of Produc­ tion Management are not satisfied. How could a loyal American be complacent about the lack of pro­ gress in our defense program, let alone “admit that we are far a- head” with it? New Dealers are performing no service to our country when they imply chat criticism of the defense effort is disloyal. This is a time for the yes-men to stay in their holes while real patriots realisti. cally and objectively appraise our situation, irrespective of whose toes are stepped on. Fork News Notes.

At long last, as the former Prince of Wales would say, the Roosevelt Administration has commenced to ' move against the.

This has not yet happened and until it does we shall not be con­ vinced that the New Deal has wash- - ed its hands of Moscow’s henchmen. Out of many, many cases which could be cited, we mention but two.

He has been a particularly annoying agitator. Yet this man, instead of being Blacklisted by the Government, is placed on the payroll at $4,400 a year while Western Democrats com­ plain bitterly to Ed Fiynn that they cannot get jobs for the party faith­ ful.

There are machines to simulate faithfully the screaming of Stuka bombers; there will be the roar of gunfire— with blank cartridges, of course; there will be parachute attacks, ma­chine gunning from airplanes, and every possible device to keep the boys from forgetting that “they’re in the army now.” Gen. Lesley lames McNair, chief of staff of general head­ quarters, a small, keen, alert man who seems omnipresent in the army camps, is the impre­sario in this the army’s biggest and most serious venture in ap­plied theatricals. He has had long experience in war games and has convincingly portrayed them as invaluable rehearsals for the real thing, not only for the instruction imparted but for the unconscious, reflex condi­ tioning of nerves and sensitivity to the now heightened tumult of war. When the nucleus of a genefal headquarters staff was formed July 25, 1940, General McNair was put at the head of it. That subsequently placed in his hands the intensified - and expanded war-training maneu­ vers, far exceeding anything ever before attempted, and last Septem­ ber he took over the entire training program of the rapidly increasing army. It is regarded as an undertake ing of the utmost importance .,.and President Roosevelt recent­ ly promoted the army Belasco from major general to the rank of temporary lieutenant general. His knowledge ot war is by no means confined to make-believe. He fought with the field artil­lery in France and won the D. S. Distinguished Service medal and the French Legion of Honor. He is a native of Minnesota and was graduated from West Point In 1904. •---- THIS writer went to the wedding of a young woman friend a few ■weeks ago.

AT HOME TO SUMMER In a recent poll, 37 per cent of the thousands of homemakers receiving questionnaires expressed a desire to be experts at salad making . . . 43 per cent wanted to know how to make food look glamorous. This report gave me an idea. Salads, besides being healthful and givers of vim, vigor and vital­ity, offer a splen­ did opportunity for variety . . . they can be used as the appetizer o r “ s t a r t e r ” course, the main dish, a dessert, or they may accompany the dinner course. So, besides giving you timely tips , on the art of salad making, I’m go- ing to explain literally dozens of ways in which you creator^ of daily menus can give “oomph” to your tasty dishes.• • * The characteristics of a good salad are simple and fairly easy to accom­ plish; namely, it should be well chilled before serving; have an at­ tractive arrangement, and a pleas­ ing color combination. Salads in summer are as impor­tant as swimming or tennis or golf. They give an opportunity to add - color and gaiety to the table. Your choice of ingredients will de­ pend upon what you have planned for your main course and dessert, provided your salad is to be a side dish or an appetizer. There are many varieties of fruit salads. They are excellent by them­ selves or as an accompaniment to a main course of sea food or meat and a pastry or cake dessert. Good to eat, wonderful to look at and substantial is this salad of or­ ange slices and primes, stuffed with cottage cheese. (See picture at top of column.) ♦Orange Pnme Cheese Salad.. On a’bed of lettuce circle 10 to 12 orange slices. At the side ar­ range 3 cooked prunes which have been stuffed with cottage cheese. With a sharp knife peel oranges, re­ moving all outer skin and inner membrane down to juicy meat. Cut in thin, even slices. California or­ anges, which are firm-meated and practically seedless, are excellent to use. .,__Sgiws with a sweet french dress- . / ing, made with lemon juice. Witii a hot bread and beverage, this salad makes a well-balanced home or party luncheon. Sweet French Dressing. Vt cup lemon juice Vt cup salad oil Vt cup red jelly or honey I teaspoon salt I teaspoon paprika Shake or blend well before serv­ ing. Makes XVt cups. Lemon juice gives this dressing just the flavor needed to make the orange; prune and cheese combination the perfect salad.• • • Keeping cool during summer months is a problem, solved most successfully by eating properly. LXNN SAYS: - Don’t be timid about putting your own personality into your salads. Here are some sugges­ tions which may help you become famous for your salads . . . Try: Fluting bananas by running the prongs of a fork lengthwise down a peeled banana, then slicing .it crosswise. Adding chopped, broken or whole walnut kernels to fruit, vegetable and meat salads. Using fruit juices to thin may­ onnaise and to mix with french dressing. Adding a fruit gelatin, sliced or. cut into glistening cubes," to a fruit salad. Brightening the edges of lettuce leaves by dipping them in pap­ rika, or adding chopped parsley to the edges of pineapple dices. Adding a little lemon juice or vinegar to sweet creaim for sal­ ad dressing—makes a quick sub­ stitute,for. sour cream.

W o o lk n it S w im S u it S h o u ld ' B e I n c lu d e d i n V a c a tio n P la n s By CHERIE NICHOLAS V TT IS very evident that women are * becoming increasingly impressed Vith the value of swimming for health and beauty. Not only do crowded beaches at seaside and lake resorts testify to the enthusi­ asm felt for water sports, but many inland, towns have created attrac­ tive and pretentious modern swim­ ming pools that offer infinite enjoy­ ment to their communities. Then too, most private estates have pic­ turesque swimming pools where guests may indulge in water sports. Which all goes to show why smart bathing suits together with a goodly supply of beach togs and accesso­ ries have become a positive “must” in the plans for the summer vaca­ tion. As to this season's swim-suit fashions, they surpass all that has gone before in way of smart, ver­ satile fabric, clever styling, eye-ap- peal in color and all the dramatic accents that add to the picture of Miss America as she takes off for a merry swim on a summer day. Outstanding news in regard to current swim-suit trends is the strong revival of woolknits and wool- knit fabric for both sculptured form- fitting types and that which is ultra chic this season—the suit that is cunningly dressmaker styled. New to the scene this summer is the jac­ quard woolknit suit such as is shown to the left in the illustration. Note the sleek front-paneled skirt in shad­ ow plaid of brown and green on yel­ low. - The back is cut very low for sun-tanning. Bright red and white diagonal striped .woolknit fabric makes the smart slenderizing princess (a favor­ ite styling this season) bathing suit pictured to the right. The V-neck- line is banded in toe solid red knit, continued into cross straps at toe back. Panties are separate so there is nothing to break toe flattering smooth line of toe suit. Machine woolknits that IoOk like handknits are also staging a big comeback in simple sculptured type such as adept swimmers love to wear. You will find handknit tech­ nique of heavy cable stitch in stun­ ning .colors, toe stripe effects such as white with red or with navy be­ ing especially intriguing. There is also a strong revival of wool jersey. These stress dress­ maker styling which now is so pro­ nounced throughout toe entire swim suit program. Most of the jersey suits have, practical zipper fasten­ ings. Designers are turning out perfect­ly charming suits, dressmaker-fash­ ioned after toe maimer of toe Bal­ lerina type of waffle pique centered in the group. Note toe coin dot banding.' Dot trimmings are very smart this season. Floral prints and various cotton weaves make front page fabric news for swim suits and beach togs. The more audacious toe coloring, the more daring the patterning, toe Smarter! This is especially true of the gay and fascinating Hawaiian prints now so fashionable. The sa­ rong drape skirt in exotic prints with.Mo. top showing bare midriff is a leading style. Novelty types are often styled with “grass skirts” in­ spired by Hawaiian native design. A lei necklace of flowers added, is the final glamour accent. Bathing suits of elasticised fabric are to be had by the score. The newest thing in these types is two- color effects done in white with Might colored godets or inset verti­ cal hands. Allover shirred lastique insures a sculptural figure fit. Hright applique of gorgeous flowersbn white" jersey is especially effective with a long matching beach cape. There are endless cunning dress­ maker-styled gingham, shantung and crinkled seersucker suits. In knits and lastiques girls love toe suit that zips up the back from toe waistline to give a perfect fit. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Chic Plus Glamour In a blaze of glory, lovely neck­ wear comes into its own thiassea- son. Women of fashion are enthu­ siastically playing up the vogue with appreciation of what magic frothy, showy-lingerie touches perform to way of accentuating feminine charm.

In fine permanent finish Swiss or­ gandy famous for its Washability, this set provides a practical way to add glamour to a simple frock. Cool Summer Outfits , Of AU Black Are New . You can dress in all black from- head to'foot and still look cool and summery. This is toe miracle style creators have wrought.

The newest black sheer dresses are finished off with edgings of fine black lace. This use of black lace trims is. being played up to the point of being recognized as a most important vogue. Not only are dress-up black sheer frocks femi­ nized to a most fascinating degree With lace frilled at throat and sleeves, on pockets and here, there, and everywhere to add glamour but the movement has been taken up by milliners Who either , make toe entire hat of lace or trim with it. Big brims edged with lace, frills are* one of the new an<? entrancing lace expressions. Enormous Brims Versus The ‘Pretty’ Little Hat .. The problem, is up to milady ,whether she will 69 hatted this sum­ mer in toe flattering little frivolous flower concoctions she loves to wear or whether she' will top her costume with a hat of enormous brim and look chic and sophisticat ed.

He knew Mas; and he vowed that so long as Ac fived, they must not know he tiie truth. Let them do their t parts and think him blind. Time somehow dragged itself away. When Richard went ashore the day before, it was at Peter’s sug­ gestion. “Do’ you' good to stretch your legs,” the younger man urged. •‘You’re going ship-crazy, Dick, the way ypur’ve^ acted since we passed the Rocksi ^What g6t into you? Ma­ ry?” He watched Richard' shrewd­ ly; but Jlichard without, answering looked do'wri at tfie boats preparing to leave the ship’s side. “I’m go­ ing to try for some geese,” Pe­ ter said.' “Come along; Better bring a club. The pigs might jump us. They’reugiy sometimes.” -, A walk ashore offered some out-, let for his bottled energyT so Richard took that iron-bound club made out of a harpoon shaft,-and went with Peter. Wiile the men were hauling the floating casks ashore, he and Peter approached the little pond; but the geese: were somehow alarmed, and they rose and. flew up the slope and settled again far up the ridge. Peter called Gee, and the three men started that way. The tussock grass, at first short and scattering, then taller and thick­ er, high above their heads, received them. Richard plunged through it headlong, welcoming its tough re­ sistance, forcing himself into it, wrestling his way with his shoulders and his head bowed. His broken arm, secured to his side, made him awkward at the business. He dragged the heavy club behind him, bending his head, charging through the tough stuff with its interlacing luxuriance like a bull. That which happened came with no 'warning. Ridhafd,; breaking He realized suddenly that he was screaming like a maniac. blindly through the grass,, lunging and fighting through the mesh of it like a fish caught in a net, stepped into nothingness. He fell, turning over sickeningly in the air. He fell on his right side, shoulder and hip striking together, in shallow water and muck. The breath was knocked out of him, and he was>i; stunned and shaken and for a little could not move. Then he rolled painfully on his back and felt something hard under his head and laid his hand on the shaft of the dub he had carried. He got to his knees and stood up, gasping for breath; and his feet sank- deeper in water and soft mire. He looked up and saw the sky through a round hole five or six feet across, edged with grass, the long stuil broken by his fall hang­ ing down into the hole. Hie hole was-a full thirty feet above his head. He called Peter’s name, shouting it as loudly as he could with what breath his jolted lungs could catch; he shouted again and again, till he saw something move at the edge of the hole above him, saw Peter’s head projected against the sky, heard Peter cry: “Dick! Are you down there?” “Yes.” After a moment Peter asked: “How deep is it?” “Thirty feet, anyway. Maybe more.” “Can you climb out?” Richard looked around, peering in the half-darkness of the pit; he walked, two or three steps to one side, investigating. He tried for hand-fiolds, managed to climb a lit­ tle;, but. he saw then, as his eyes be­ came' a little adjusted to the dark­ ness here, that above his head this Sides sloped inward toward the open­ing atthetop. ' He slid to the bottom again in a cloudof sooty ,dust. ,“No,” he'said. ''IfS-Shaped like this inside of a jug. The sides slant in to the top. You’ll have to get a line, bring some men to haul me out." • “Sure.”VBe careful where you step,” Richard warned him. “And make the men be careful when they come; Probably there are a lot of holes .and pits around in the grass.” I Petw repeated: “Sure.” He said in sudden question “Hurt, are you?” “No" “I can see you now. Tou can’t climb out, that’s certain.” “No. Go ahead.” “I’ll bring a line. You take it easy. I'll get the line we towed the casks ashore with." . .. That’s not heavy enough. Bring some whale line from' the ship.” Peter agreed. “Yes, I’d better. I’ll be quite a while, Dick; but I’ll make it quick as I can. Take it easy.” His head disappeared. Richard, stayed where he was, looking up at that small opening so far above him, wishing Peter were still there. He. could hear the grass rustling in the wind; but'the sound was faint. He was wet, and he was cold. Hie shal­ low .pool of. water into whidi he had fallen was directly under the open­ ing, in the deepest part of the pit. He sat down at one side of it, pluck­ ing at the powdery gray-black ash with his hand, rubbing it between his fingers. It broke into a light dust that rose into his face and made him sneeze ; biit it stuck: to his wet hands -ini i a slimy smear. He shivered with a sudden chill, and wished Peter would hurry. This place had an unpleasant odor, vaguely alarming. Twenty minutes for Peter to reach the shore, - ten minutes to ,the ship, ten minutes back to the shore again; say an hour in all before help would come. Richard did not like his plight. There was something terrifying in this pris­ on into which he had fallen; in the stale, sick smell of it. He tried to estimate how long Peter had been gone. Five minutes? Ten? He sought to count off sixty seconds, and caught himself hurrying the count; so he began to beat time with his hand, tapping his knee rhythmical­ ly. It took a long time to count sixty seconds. There were sixty min­ utes In an hour. To count sixty seconds sixty times would need an eternity. It must be at least half an hour since Peter left. Richard warned himself to be conservative; he called it twenty minutes. In an excess of caution, he decided it was only fif­ teen. If he began to expect Peter too soon, waiting would be hard. A' rain squall drifted across the sky, and a few drops pattered on the StUl surface of the pool with little tinkling: sounds, almost musical. He liked them. They were company. Theyi banished the dreadful silence here.. Peter must have reached Oie boats by this time. Probably the men were just sliding a boat into the wa­ ter, shipping their oars. Peter would drive them, make them hurry. Richard sat down again, forcing himself to relax, to stop thinking' about Peter. Peter would get here as soon as he could. Richard lay down on his back, his arm under his head, watching that hole above him, and the gray sky from which rain again descended. A man watching that hole, waiting and waiting for the head of a rescuer to appear, could go crazy. Richard dragged his eyes away from it. He studied the inside of his prison, forcing himself to wonder ajbout its origin. The fire which dug this hole jn the peat must have burned for years, eating its way down and down till it came to hard .pan. He asked ,himself, aloud: “Why didn’t rain put it out?” He wondered how long a man would live in this wet cold that bit his bones. The thought made him shiver, atid he got up to warm him­ self again. Everywhere the soft ash under his feet was honeycombed by the little mice of fire that had eaten tunnels in it; and his feet sank into ,it halfway to his knees. He hated the feeling, stopped walking, beat his chest with his arm. Richard thought he would be glad to leave Hoakes Bay forever.:. / Now and then, in the back of his mind, like a watching, beckoning figure, Mary appeared. He shut his thoughts against- her'. He must put her out of his mind, keep her out of his mind. Forever. . Peter would come soon. Surely be would come soon. Richard decided they might even now be hunting for him, up there. He began to shout. He realized suddenly that he was screaming like a maniac; and he stopped in shame at himself, and controlled his voice, and thereafter he hallooed almost decorously, at regular intervals. But now he watched the opening above him without respite, never taking his eyes away from it. It must be an hour since Peter left him here. He refused to admit to himself that more than an hour had passed. When- the sky grew darker; he argued desperately that this was merely a thickening of Uie . clouds. , That was not merely a thickening of the clouds, above,^hina. It was dusk. Night was coming on. It had been early in the' afternoon when he fell into the pit; ,so now. he 'must Jiave been here, five houra or six. In any dreadful crisis, a man must make for. himself a formula. Rich­ ard ,had nt> illusions.^bout' Peter; but to believe that Peter-nad returned aboard the ' V enturaand'sailed away, leaving^him here in this pit to die,; Would mean quick madness anil despair. Richard was of that breed of man. whtch does 'not de­ spair; which :doei not surrender. He'found a 'formula';'' He decided to believe that Peter, on his way back to the ship, had fallen into • pit like this one. He decided t» believe that Peter too was a prison' er.

THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CHURCH REGARDING BEVERAGE ALCOHOL LESSOH TEXT—I CoriotUans 3:9-13; Tltus 2:1-8. GOLDEN TEX T-Y e are the salt ot the earth.—Matthew 5:13. The church has a grave respon­ sibility -regarding- alcoholic bev­erages, but in recent years it has largely failed to meet it with in­ telligence and enthusiasm. Let us never, forget that the first business of the Christian and of the church is to preach the gospel, winning men to Christ. It is not our calling to attempt by social or economic meth­ ods to right the wrongs of this world. Nor is ours a “social gospel” with the emphasis on “social.” But have we forgotten that it is a gospel with serious social implications and re­ sponsibilities? The man, and the church, who fol­lows Christ should be vitally con­ cerned about every influence m American life which is destructive to character, and right at Ilie top of that list stands alcohol. To meet this gigantic (find growing) prob­ lem effectively'the church must be I. Separated From Sis (I Cor. 8:9, 10). A church livingin careless world- liiiess has no testimony against the sin roiind about it. In fact, its in­ fluence is definitely on the wrong side. The Christian is to be in the world, but not of it. He must live with the sinners, but he must never by word or deed, or even by his pres­ence in the wrong place, seem to condone their sin nor fellowship with them in it. Here, we have one of the horrible weaknesses of our Bay. Men and women who profess to follow Christ (whether they really do, only He can judge) indulge in a social glass of wine, or sip a cocktail "for the sake of courtesy,” or attend gather­ ings which are obviously non- Christian or anti-Christian. If there is to be effective dealing with any problem—with the liquor problem —we must have separated Christian living. n . Cleansed of Wicked Persons (I Cor. 5:11-13). Even a "man that is called a brother” (v. 11) may not be one at all, but may be a “wicked ,per­ son” (v. 13). We are not able to judge any man’s spiritual experi­ ence. His relationship to God Is a matter between him and God, but if, in his life, he shows himself per­ sistently to be on the side of wicked­ ness, it is the duty of the church to have him “put away from among” them (v. 13). We can only judge a man by his actions, but we are required to do that for the sake of the purity of the church and the effectiveness of its teaching. This is not to be done' in self-righteousness, but in humil­ ity .and with the constant effort to restore such, a one (Ga). 6:1). But it should be done. We are woe­ fully weak in the matter of church discipline, and it shows in the in­ ability of the church to do valiant service for God and country. m . Intelligent in Doctrine (Titus 2:1-8; esp. I, 7, 8). . To be informed is to be wise, able to plan properly, balanced in judg­ ment and action, useful and effec­ tive. Fundamentally every problem of life finds its solution in a proper knowledge of the doctrines of the Christian faith. It is of great im­ portance that we have information about the liquor traffic, about the dreadful results of the use of alco­ hol, etc. Helpful material on such subjects is available, and the sources are known to ministers and Christian workers. .However, we must hold and use this information in relation to Christian truth if it is to be fully useful. A temperance worker without Christ in his own life and in his labors against liquor is weak, lacking the real solution and the dynamics to proclaim it ef­ fectively. IV. Consistent in Life (Titus 2: 1-8, esp. 2, 5, 7). It is what we are that speaks so loudly that folk do not pay any attention to what we say. This pas­ sage clearly states the fact that both young and old, both men and women —yes, even the, preacher (v. 7)—are to present before the world the un­ deniable teaching of a consistent Christian life. Read the exhortations of these verses again with great care and apply them first to your own Ufe, and then to your own church. What great Christian graces . we have beret ..Note that again and again' there 'is the. admonition to tem­ perance. No' user of intoxicants can be sober, temperate, discreet, chaste, sound in faith, and so on. The writer of these notes is con­ vinced that the only consistent posi­ tion for the Christian (individually ar in the church) to take regarding alcoholic beverages is that of total abstinence for. himself and the legal elimination of temptation from others.

If we teach children what is good for them and do our best to protect them from evil we will not have too many adults to reform. That is why the cocktail hour that offers stimulating drinks to young people in their late ’teens and early 20 ’s seems so dangerous to me. “Young people are stimulated by the wine of youth.

''The afternoon gathering and the need for relaxation and gaiety are set in the day’s routine by nature. Cocktails are not nature’s way of re­ lieving the situation and we who are in any way responsible for the welfare of young people should be quick to save the situation by pro* vidlng the needful elements without falling back on stimulants. 4aMusic will help tremendously provided it is selected with an eye to its effect. Tea is a good stimu­ lant. A good drink—tasty, sparkling, snappy—can be made by combining '"tea, fruit juices and ginger-ale. It can be lovely in color and when served in dainty glasses is quite as attractive as any cocktail. It will smell better and taste as good and It will do its work without robbing -—youth of it* charm and its brains. “A body without its mind is an awful sight,' especially when that body is usually occupied by an in- telligent, able mind. . . .

Miss Ruth Rodwell arrived home Thursday from Winston-Salem, where she has been visiting friends and relatives. She was accompan ied home by Miss Dixie Rodwell, who will spend some time as her guest. The SmokiiiK GhrL Rev. Walter E. Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. One of the most disgusting and sickening sights that-we behold to­ day is to see a girl smoking cigar­ ettes. Somehow we always feel that it is very unbecoming to her; that it is lowering to her ideals; that it is a mighty pull on her wo­ manhood and virtue; that it is, or ought to be beneath, her dignity. She indeed seems absolutely out of her place. The best of people con­ sider it so. They think of her as stepping over into the masculine realm and forming a habit that be­ longs only to man, and should not be formed even Iqr him. The smoking girl can never be at her best in . life. The cigarette preys upon her health, her strength of character, her morals and her spirituality. No girl should ever form the cigarette habit. She shor­ tens her life when she does, and certainly robs herself of life’s best In different ways. Her offspring will come into the world sickly and weakly, to a-greater or less degree, and she thereby helps to curse her own children. Girls addicted to the cigarette habit certainly are unfit for motherhood. In fact they are unfit for wives. They cannot make a home happy, peaceful and joyous because they are unfit for the du­ ties and responsibilities that belong to home life. One of the greatest curses of A- merican womanhood today is the cigarette habit. It is helping to underihine and destroy the morals of qur nation. So often the cigar­ ette-smoking girl forms other bad habits. She drinks beer, dope and liquor. She becomes adultrous. She so weakens her moral resist­ ance and will power with the-pois­ onous cigarette until she falls an easy prev to the lust of men. She is easily led in the wrong direction which may mean her defeat and eternal doom. How deplorable the day- when girls began the injurious, ungojjty^ unbecoming, depraving cigarette habit. How can America stand when she is poisoning her youth—both boys and girls—with cigarettes and liquor, and leading them into every kind of vice that is degrading and destructive? When the womanhood of a nation is destroyed it can’t sur­ vive many years. Some mighty catastrophe must befall her. God pity onr American womanhood, and God pity our nation. “Defense” Secretary. A mystery has developed in the capital over the exact status of Mn. James Helm, social secretary to the President’s wife, and why she was paid out of “defense” funds. Officialswereataloas to explain why she was paid out of “defense1 funds. Officialswereataloss to explain why Mn. Helm as social arbiter of the Executive Mansion was essential to the rearmament program. Butit was well established that Mn. Helm was classified as a “defense” e ployee of the Government and paid out of the President’s “emergency” funds for defense. Congress has given Mr. Roosevelt “blank ckecks” totaling 325 million dollars in such pocket funds. The Presiden’t personal staff dis­ claimed responsibility for Mn. Helm was a “defense”, worker, knowing as they did that many of the White House employees are kept on pay­ rolls of various other departments or agencies in order to keep within the White House appropriations. — Chicago Tribune.

July’s oratory is,past; the speech- makers who swore on July Fourth that America will never he invad­ ed, and so on, have put their hair up again and are now figuring on the family reunions and some wa­ termelon cuttings. Their talk there will be of the crops and poor Bill, how he went so suddenly, and my, how you’ve grown. There will be no mighty flights of speech until Armistice day celebration. Thanksgiving will bring out some talk clothed in hu­ mility but no flag waving and breast beatinjg. Then, what is there to do until November n? There’s plenty. There are crops to be cultivated and harvested, weapons to be forg­ ed, ships to be built. We must fiU. the national granary and pantry, collect the gear of defense, moun. tain upon mountain of it. That all means work and nothing else. It’s just as well that we have a breathing, working spell and for­ get the rousements'for a while. No speech ever won a war. The Old South bad orators sprinkled all over it, never excelled, but it lost a war. The most rousing oration never sprouted a grain of corn nor put a patch on a pair of pants. Pretty speeches never generated enough power to fire a popgun. Just work; that’s.all, and more and more of it from now until No­ vember 11. Working, we may be able to celebrate the next fourth of July and regale ourselves with the stirring words of the orators.— Charlotte Observer. Farmer Wants Equality. “It’s aquality the farmers wan't" said Fred S. Sexauer, president of the Dairymen’s League Cooperative Amociation of New York, recently. ‘Equality in return for labor and hours; equality of sacrifice by la­ bor and industry;' equality of op­ portunity to do their part for their country; equality in the knowledge that their government is requiring of other that which farmers are willing to give—long hours, hard work, great sacrifice.” The farmer, in short, asks that all be treated alike in this enter, gency. No less than labor,; be: Is entitled to a return for - his work that is commensurate with I rising costs and-increased overhead. Com­ mon fairness dictates that. Ijames X Roads News.

TO ffiU , ENt TELL T M - With Aa Ai Little Stingers (From The Yellow Jacket) All this speculating on the Hess case reminds us Of a dog chasing his tall—there’s lots of motion but no progress. If you dare to question some phase of President Roosevelt’s for. eign policy, you are nothing but an appeaser. In the old days we used to de­ bate on which came first, the chick­ en or the egg: , We know the an­ swer now. Neither—it’s the New Deal tax collector. Among the other things that this this World War has given the country is a 50 per cent decrease in the birthrate of Germany. Sixteen months more and a Con- gressional election will be upon us and the crying need of a Republi­ can Congress wasnever so great. If you want to concentrate on your cnssings for a lifetime in tab­ loid form just say Hitler. That stands for everything bad. A Question—who .was it that in­ stigated the plan of paying for things not produced and hiring men to leave their fields unculti­ vated? It’s a peculiar situation. For in­ stance, it a man,wears his Ameri­ canism straight, a pack of bellow­ ing critics will insist that he is “crooked.” Think ot the tanks and planes and guns and powder that have been boon-doggled away.

FSA Gardens Geared To Defense Plans. Sight of more big, well-protected gardens in Darie County this sum­ mer and fall will mean not only in­ creased security for farm families here, bnt also participation in the Department of Agriculture's “Food for Defense” program. Elizabeth Taylor, home management supervi­ sor for the Farm Security Adminis­ tration, said today. ' Today food is a defense weapon, she said. "The Department of Agri» culture is supporting prices for hogs, butter, chickens and eggs to insure adequate supplies of the food need­ ed bv threatened democracies. A program to'expand production of to­ matoes for canning to meet probable demands under the Lease-Lend Act is already underway. It may be that peas, corn and beans will be pur­ chased by the government later on. “ Goodrecords made by FSA bor­ rowers the past years in making the farm feed the family should be great Iy exceeded this year, Miss Taylor said. Even though families may not be in an area where they can a vegetables to commercial canners, they will contribute to defense when they can sell vegetables to commer­ cial canners, they will contribute de­ fense when they insure a year-round food supply forthemselves, releasing other food supplies for our army and navy and democracies resisting a- gression. Tbe FSA office, located in the Court house building: in Mocks­ ville, is anxious to help borrowers enlarge their garden plans, including late plantings for fall storage.

According to information receiv­ ed from the office of Thad Eure, Secretary of State. Raleigh, fake salesman are evidently at large in this State and possibly have already or will make their appearance in this section to offer stocks, etc., which perhaps are worthless, or a risky buy for any citizen. The statement issned from the office of the Secretary of State, fol­ lows: “Information reaching this de­ partment indicates that theie is much activity in the rural sections of the State on the part of strang­ ers who are offering various types of oil leases, stock in cemeteries, etc., in exchange for securities held by our citizens. “From inquiries and complaints edeved by this office and from in­ vestigations made, I believe it can be iairly estimated that in this State three out of every four victims of unscrupulous securities salesmen are farm folks. Many victims hesitate to complain for fear of appearing ridiculous, but my experience con­ vinces me that a few resentful and energectic victims are more effec­ tive than anything that could be done to curb this activity. Every person eugaged in the business of selling securies in this State is required to be registered with this department, either as a dealer or a salesman. Every re­ gistered salesman is. given a small registration card which sets forth his name of the dealer employing him, the date of issuance and ex­ piration. This card is signed by the Secretary of State. Thad -Eure, who is ex-officlo Securities Commis­ sioner in North Carolina. There­ fore, prospective investors should first request the salesman to pro­ duce this card. . Examine it and be sure it has not .expired. If the salesman cannot produce his. regis­ tration card, obtain his name and address if posssible, and forward same to this department, together with a brief account of the circum­ stances involved. Never purchase a security from a salesman who cannot produce this registration card." Primitive Methods MfeedNst 'B e . THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON (Consolidated Features—WNU Service.) N EW YORK.—A few years ago, Anita Loos’ maid used to de­ liver to her every day a dash of gopher dust from Harlem. We , , .haven’tStrmigManuseript heard wheth- Across Continent; er this still Her Net, $600,000 “S’arm seems to be still working. All goes well as “Blossoms in the Dust” gets warm, almost fulsome from the crit­ ics. Miss Loos did the screen play for Ralph Wheelwright’s story. It taps deep founts of tears and ranges far from Miss Loos’ “Gen­tleman Prefer Blondes,” and its Lorelei Lee, the alluring and un­ abashed golddigger of 1925. It's one of those “where are they now?” stories, with Miss Loos sitting pretty, literally and figuratively, as a deft, swift, workmanlike story adapter, scenarist and remodeler in Hollywood—one of the best. The pint-size girl with bangs— weight 87 pounds, height four feet, eleven Inches—was riding on the train from California to New York in 1925, considerably bored. She started writing up this golddigger Lorelei, with a soft-stub pencil, in big, round letters. The manuscript strung along clear through Kansas and Indiana and on to New York, and was. almost as big as Miss Loos, what with those big rope- trick letters,' when she landed here. It brought her something over $600,000. It was translated into vir­ tually every language except Es­ kimo and pigeon-talk, and in Eng­ land its sales passed those of any other American book. She later wrote “But Gentlemen Marry Bru­ nettes.” Her talent for humor may have been inherited from her father, a country newspaper publisher and humorist of the Bill Nye school, of Sissons, Calif., where Miss Loos was born. She was a shy, quaint little thing, hanging around the newspaper shop, helping polish up a gag or feed the flatbed. When she was 14, she sent a story to the New York Morning Telegraph. They printed it. A year later David Griffith sent for a girl who had sent a scenario which had set his assistants to whooping joyously. “What can I do for you, my child?” he asked when the tiny girl with bangs and pigtails came in. The Loos girl showed him her sum­ mons to Hollywood. There she was and is. In the years between she had become a pretty good actress, appearing in San Francisco and oth­ er California cities. TUST a year ago, Roger L. Put- " nam, go-getting mayor of Spring­ field, Mass., was much in the news with the Putnam plan to break bot- mm tlenecks inManagement, Over industry. He Finance, Rapidly caught the Forging Into Lead “ n g his success in achieving co-opera­ tion among the city, industry and labor, the most important detail of his formula being the training of la­ bor by the city, to fit specific needs. He’s in the news as Springfield’s defense director with some snappy suggestions about the swift and ef­ fective integration of civilians and officials, and private and public, facilities. His successful battles with two floods and a hurricane give weight to his words. He’s Harvard, 1915, dM a P.G. stretch at M.I.T., worked at engineering and was In the navy in the World war. In the navy he learned to crochet cord belts, an art which he still practices, and Putnam-made belts are in great demand among , his friends. He is the father of three boys and three girls, 48 years old, stocky in build, 'but quick-moving both in person and speech. He is president of:the Package Machinery Co. More and more management, as above, is coming to the top, as against finance. Note James Burn­ ham’s new book, “The Managerial Revolution,”—malign over there, still benign over here.

By all means read the article on Wheeler and Roosevelt in the July 15 Look . . . While Wheeler goes around the country wrapping him­ self in the Flag and rapping the President by using all kinfis of ideal­ istic arguments—this article proves that the whole thing is strictly per­ sonal . . .

Moldy Window Frames QUESTION: In my new house the varnished wood of the windows has started to turn dark, and mold or' mildew has formed on them. How; can this be prevented? In repainting, the windows, should all varnish and mold flrst be removed? How? Answer: You will probably find that-the water that causes the mil­ dew comes in through cracks around the outside putty. On new work putty is very likely to separate fromj the wood frame in the course of hardening. Your first move should be to close these cracks which can be done with a coat of paint. Take off the inside varnish with varnish remover; the mold should go with it. If it does not, scrub with steel wool wet with a disinfectant. Fol­ low by rinsing with clear water, and allow to dry thoroughly before revamishing. Cold Air Intake Question: We are confronted with the problem of how large a cold air intake our hot air furnace requires in order to give the maximum amount of ” heat throughout the house. There is a screened opening on the right side of the furnace, but since we were not getting enough heat, we decided to have another opening made on the other side of the furnace. There is no noticeebje improvement. Can you make any suggestions? Answer: Air taken from outside the building should have a cold air duct area not less than 80 per cent of the total area of the warm air leaders. If the cold air supply is obtained by recirculation from the building, the' area of the cold air return pipe must be at least equal to the sum of all the warm air lead­ er pipes. It would be advisable to have a reliable heating man check the heating capacity of the furnace, the heat supply ducts and the out­ lets. Rough Cement Floor Question: Is there some simple, inexpensive way to resurface my rough cement floor in the cellar? The finish is somewhat like a sand-float plaster finish. n Answer: A floor grinding machine,, of the type used by terrazzo floor contractors, can be used to smooth down the surface. Get an estimate on this method from your local ter­razzo and tile man. A topping coat of Portland cement could be laid over the present floor after properly preparing it for the new cement.- The Portland Cement association will gladly send you a bulletin on this subject, on request. The New York office is at 347 Madison avenue; the Chicago office at 33 West Grand avenue. Wooden Fruit Bowls Question: I have s.een some fancy fruit bowls made of woodenware in some of the department stores. They have a high gloss finish. What ma­ terial is used to finish the bowls in this way, and how is it done? I have some unfinished bowls that I should like to finish in this way. Answer: Get a smooth surface on the wood by rubbing it with fine steel wool or very fine sandpaper. Wipe off the dust with benzine, be-' ing extremely careful of fire. Finish with two coats of a good quality quick-drying varnish. Pull the gloss of the first coat, when dry, by rub-’ bing lightly with very fine sandpa-. per; wipe off the dust, then apply! the finish coat. Hardened Paint Brushes Question: Please advise the best method to restore paint brushes that were allowed to dry hard and have been unused for two years. Answer: To remove hardened paint from a brush, soak in paint remover. Or, you can use any one of a number'of brush cleaning com­ pounds on sale at plaint and hard­ ware stores. Brushesinwhichpaint has hardened will not be satisfac­ tory for fine painting. The bristles usually lose elasticity and form. Lining a Cabin Question: In finishing the inside of a summer cabin, I plan to attach panels and composition board di­ rectly to the studding. Would it be wise to put tar paper under­neath? Answer: Rather than tar paper I should prefer to use heavy roofing felt, for it is not so brittle. This lining will make the walls more wind-proof and 'be a protection against moisture. .Brick Sun Porch Question: Inside our sun porch the walls are red brick, like the outside bricks of the house. I should like to paint the brick walls inside the porch in an ivory' color. What kind of paint should I use? Answer: Casein paint or a cement paint would be suitable for painting the brick. Be sure the surface is clean and free of grease. Cinder Walk Question: Would calcium chloride serve as a binder for cinders out­ side the house on a walk? If not, what would be an inexpensive bind­ er? We are not in a position to make a really large investment in this matter. '-Answer: Calcium chloride-is a fair binder for very fine cinders, or dusty paths or driveways. For coarse cin- ders, gravel or broken stone, emulsi­ fied asphalt is better suited. Your local road commissioner can give you the names of firms making *hia type of binder. THIRST QUE I The thermorrr ;the summer sun’ ,Then you’ll wan drink with tin wilted spirits.

Indeed the favorite pickup for a sultry day is nothing more thah a simple drink of fruit juices, tea, or frosty milk with shimmering ice. The tartness of the fruit juices in these drinks will refresh and cool you, soothe your disposition long after you’ve sipped them. Besides .they’ll give vitamins and minerals to pep you up even more. For a really quick cooling drink you might try some of the prepared fruit juice powders on the market. They can be mixed in a flash and ,give a very satisfying beverage.

Ice ; cubes with cherries, red berries, mint leaves, orange or lemon slices^ or fruit juices all frozen in the cubes will make your thirst quenchers a joy to look at.•Iced Tea. Tea must be made double strength when used with ice, so use 2 tea­ spoons for each cup of water. Meas­ ure I cup of freshly drawn water, bring to a boil. Pour over leaves, let steep 5 minutes, then strain into a pitcher. Cool, pour into glasses filled with ice, two-thirds full. Serve with slices of lemon. You can do such delightful things with this combination of tea, or­ anges and mint, so here’s a recipe which you might like to try. It’s a company favorite! Orange Mint Julep; (Serves 10) 6 glasses of strong tea 2 cups sugar Vt cup water I orange rind grated Juice of six oranges Sprays of mint Boil the sugar and water and grat­ ed orange rind for 5\ minutes. Re­ move from fire, add crushed mint leaves and let cool. To the strained tea add orange juice, and pour into glasses which are half-filled with crushed ice, and sweeten to taste with the strained mint syrup. You’ll like this garnished with mint sprays and floating orange slices. For a really exhilarating’"drink that has nutritive value so vital to lift lagging spirits, here’s eggs and milk combined with fruit and-juices. It’s so-o-o good and looks like a charm. LYNN SAYS: A snowy frost on the glass in which you serve your cooling summer drinks is very attrac­ tive and simple to make. All you do is dip the top of the glass before it is filled into slightly beaten egg white and then into granulated sugar. Allow to dry Uioroughly before using. If you’d like a true frost for the glass try a drink which is guaranteed to have one. Such are the old-fashioned “granits” which may be of any flavor you desire. Olie granit is a half­ frozen drink which is put in the refrigerator or freezer until a light snow-frost appears, but leaves the drink still liquid enough to pour. For a strawberry granit, mash a quart of berries and cover with IK pounds of sugar, then set aside for several hours to let a syrup form. Drain and press through a sieve. Add I table­ spoon of strawberry extract, then mix with I pint of water. Freeze until the top is snow-frosted and serve in long, thin glasses. .

ONE of the most interest­ ing pieces of casting that’s taken place in Holly­ wood is the selection of Joah Crawford and Greer Garson to combine their talents for the first time in “When Ladies Meet,” a screen version of the stage hit of some years ago. It’s the story of a wife and the “other woman” ; they meet without knowing that' they’re rivals. They become warm friends—and the fun begins when their identities are re- GREER GARSON vealed. The stars are fresh from hits—Miss Crawford from “A Wom­ an’s Face,” and Miss Garson from “Blossoms in the Dust.” Robert Tay­ lor will be the fought-over male. Edgar Kennedy, the ''slow-bum” star of RKO Radio’s shorts, is pre­paring to leave on his annual per­ sonal appearance tour. He will be accompanied by his wife, his son and Chester Conklin, and he will play .Midwest theaters and fairs. -Katharine Hepburn, whose per­ formance in “Philadelphia Story” put her back where she wanted to be at the box office, will start work soon on another picture. At present it’s called “The Woman of the Year” ; she’ll play a newspaper col­ umnist who’s married to a sports writer. Metro feels that it’s a good title for a Hepburn picture because of the comeback which she staged in “Philadelphia Story.” Miriam Hopkins withdrew from tlBad Lands” recently, giving two reasons, one ordinary, one unusual. Hie ordinary one—she felt that the part did not suit her; probably it didn’t. The title doesn’t sound like a Miriam Hopkins vehicle. The un­ usual one—she felt that Robert Stack, the leading man, was too young to play opposite her. Few feminine stars would admit that! Jack Holt’s offspring are doing all right for themselves in films — as is Papa. Tim is scheduled for six "outdoor dramas”—(just Westerns to us,) for RKO for 1941-42, and his sister Jenny, who’s 20, has been en­ gaged to play the feminine lead in “Stick to Your Guns,” a Hopalong Cassidy picture in wkich that vet­ eran of Westerns, William Boyd, plays the lead. Every so often somebody has the bright idea of .trying to persuade Maude Adams to come out of retire­ ment and make a picture. Noth­ ing ever comes of it. The latest to try it is Frank Capra,- who wants her to star in a film called “Meet Jane Doe, Mother of John Doe.” If she could be tempted to make a picture the opportunity of working with Capta should do it.

For Summer Style i Silhouettes Visit Your jCoi^etry Expert By CHERIE NICHOLAS ^ I 'HIS is a day and age that de- * mandsstyle-perfectionthroughout every detail of general makeup and apparel. One may be ever so glam­ orously groomed in matter of com­ plexion, hair-do and fingertips, one’s costume may be of fine fabric in colors delectable, stylized “to the queen’s taste,” but if one’s figure is not expertly and scientifically brought under subjection into lines of smooth contour and grace via faultless foundation-garment tech­ nique, all is lost in matter of style- right and charming appearance. Note how slim, svelte and gra­ciously satisfying the fashions pic­ tured are to the eye. They demon­ strate the efficacy: Of cojset wizard­ ry in giving the much-to-be-coveted smooth silhouette that modern fash­ ion demands. Intheforegroundthe “portrait of a lady” demonstrates how distinctive a smartly conserva­ tive graceful sheer print redingote costume looks when the wearer is nicely fitted in the correct founda­ tion garment. In this instance the simple styling of the redingote with its accent of tiny white buttons down the front calls for a well-constructed corset in order to show to advan­ tage the slender-waisted figure. Diminutive quill pens darting from tiny inkwells make the attractive white-print patterning on fine dark I sheer for the redingote with match­ ing crepe for the vmder slip. Shirred heart-shaped pockets add interest to the flaring skirt. Slim through the waist and hips, smartly bulky through the blouse and shoulder, the lumber jacket slacks costume shown is beautifully tailored in cool spun rayon for active summer wear. For a slim, chic line and comfortable action freedom, the fashion-wise vacation­ ist will wear this trim costume over a sleek pahty girdle correctly Sttedi to her special needs. Fresh and cool for summer the patrician jacket suit pictured to the left uses fine printed sheer and crepe in a clear white scrolland a leaf patterning. A self-fabric softly styled jabot at the bodice front gives subtle accent to this sheer- with-crepe frock,'with its all-around pleated skirt. The season’s impor­ tant lingerie touch appears on the collar of the nipped-in jacket. The influence of the new long-torso line is seen in the attractive spec­ tator costume shown to the right in the group. ' Here a smartly striped one-piece frock is teamed with a trim short-sleeved jacket in solid white. The broad collar of the frock is worn over the jacket collar to heighten the ensemble effebt. Worn over a well-fitting foundation gar­ ment, this figure-revealing costume has a slender trim line of grace an<f beauty.' 1 ’(Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Hat to Match It is a treasurable little hat and dress of cunning pique, patterned with pink rosebuds that this darling little girl is wearing. The gay posy pique is just the thing for the mak­ ing of this little sun suit. A match­ ing bonnet completes the vision. Middy Blouse Types One of the reactions to the vogue for long-torso lines is the revival of the middy blouse. The latest types accent the lowered V-Iine neck. Middy, sweaters are very smart worn with pleated skirts. White" wash-fabric middies are also good style. . . ^ _ ... City Cottons Go ‘Tops’ In Sinnmer Fashions Ladies who “know their fashions’* dress in gingham, seersucker, chambray, tissue-crinkle organdy, dark boudes and other smart “city cottons.” It is a picture that fash­ ion paints for summer, most re­freshing and one that goes keen.on chic and charm. For downright practicality the jacket suit tailored to a nicety of dark check crinkle seersucker, of plaid ;gingham or striped chambray takes first- prize this summer. - Women of discrimi­ nating tastes have yielded whole­ heartedly to the new cotton vogue, a fact impressed on one throughout the siunmer style parade all along the highways and byways of fashion.

MOCKSVILLE. N. C. JULY 23, 1941. THE DAVIE RECORD. C. FRANK STROUD • • Editor. TELEPHONE Entered at the Postoffiee in Mocks- vllle, N. C., as Second-class Uail matter. March 3,1903. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: OME YEAR. IN ADVANCE - * I «0 SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE • S SO Beginning A New Year. With this issue. The Recotd be. gins its 43 rd year. Many changes have taken place in Mocksville and Davie county since the first issue of TheRecord appeared In 1899, under the ownership and management of the late B. H. Morris. The present editor and owner ar­ rived here 34 years ago, snd took over the paper. In all its long life the paper has changed bands but once. The oldest paper in the county, The Record has spent its long Iite in helping to build up the town and county, and in making this a better place in which to live. We have made mr.ny mistakes, but feel that we have done some good. To the people throughout the town, county aud state, who have given us their support and friendship, we wish to extend our sincere thanks. We appreciate their subscriptions, advertising and the co-operation they have given us. Inthe future as in the past, we shall strive, to print a newspaper that any member of the family can read without blushing with shame. The beer, wine and liquor adverting, the Sun­ day races and ball games, together with other like features, will be conspicuous for their absence in these columns. We shall continue to work Ior the upbuilding of Mocksville, Davie connty a n d North Carolina, trying at all times to hew to the line—letting the chips fall where they may. Call on us at any time when you need our help in promoting any worthy object. Our columns are open to the public. If we say something good about a fellow he never sees it, but if we print something that he doesn't like, he loses no time in coming around to tell us just what he thinks of us and our paper. It was ever thus. A rural subscriber wants to know what the word “nepotism'’ means. It means getting a political job and then putting as many of your re­ latives on the payroll as possible, regardless ot what kind of folks they are or whether they are com­ petent to hold down the jobs. We understand that a bunch of Democrats, New Deaters or some other kind of folks in Eastern Ca. rolina, are petitioning the Presid­ ent to turn Madam Perkins out of his Cabinet. The country would have been better off had she never been appointed to this high posi< tion. 196 First Number In Draft Lottery Washington — Number 196. was the first number drawn from the big gold-fish bowl in the selective lottery to determine the order in which 750,000 young Americans, just turned 21, shall be subject to conscription. Men holding this number will be the first of the 21 -year-olds to be mustered into the selective service, provided they are physically fit and and not deferred because of de- pendendents or other causes. Secretary ot the Navy Knox had been designated to draw the first number but he stepped aside In favor of Staff Sergeant Robert W. Shackleton of Fort Dix 1 N. J., a selectee from New York city. Knox then drew the second num. ber 98. . Davie To Send Thirteen Men. The 16th draft call was made last Wednesday for 3,278 men from North Carolina to report for duty in August. Of this number 2,523 are white men and 755 negroes. Davie is to send 13 men to Ft. Bragg, on Monday, Aug. n th , for military training. Sea Monster in Yadkin Rhrer. Durham, July 13, ’41 . Dear Mr. Stroud:—On Saturday, July 5th, our family came over to Davie county to visit, and on the way back we saw something which some one over there should know about. Crossing the Yadkin River bridge between Winston-Salem and Ad. vance, we saw a sea animal which was about as large as a man. We were not close enough to decide what it was, but from the way it was cutting the water we imagined it to be a shark. It was a short distance above the bridge. -Since we understand people use this river as a bathing place, it might be of interest to see about this, because they could be endangering their lives. Feeling that some one should know about this in that commun­ ity, I write to you. Sincerely, J. S. STEELMAN. Transformation in Davie and Mocksville. EUitor Davie Record:—This is not a speculation on what is to be, bat what Has been* I first saw Davie county in the early fall of 1899 when I came to Canato teach, through the influence of Mr. E. Frost. Within a few weeks forty-one years will have come and gone. These quickly pass ing years have witnessed many mar­ velous changes everywhere. The IateEMward E. Slossen said “Science is gradually remaking the world HmI Mr. Slossen seen Davie county in 1900 and again in 1941, he could say science, applied by a progress­ ive people, has already made a new county and county town. Mocksville. Change for the better is notable and praiseworthy on every hand. The changes are so apparent that one is puzzled as to where to begin. Mocksvillh iB a new town; the streets are new Instead of slush­ ing through mud on wet days, con­crete provides hard dry surface for the walker and driver. The streets, business houses, lawns and newspa­ per offices are citified. Marked im­provement everywhere. People liv­ ing permanedtiy in any given com­munity, and effecting the changes, as they gradually take place, seldom realize how much the community changes in a given time. New and attractive homes attest the spirit of progress that has produced marvel ous changes, electric lights, water in the homes, an up-to-date sewage system make not only a happier, but a healthier people. Modern school facilities have placed opportunities within reach of every child. Illiter acy. the handicap of a democracy, has been eliminated. The accelera­ tors in automobiles have accelerated the minds of the people; the people think more quickly and act accord­ingly. Churches too. have felt and reacted to this impact of the spirit of pro. press; the taste for the beautiful has evolved keeping pace with material changes. Nowhere is change more apparent and more to be evaluated and ap­ preciated than in the public roads. Forty years ago the only change in the roads since General Nathaniel: Green and his struggling army wad­ ed their mud was that they had grown much worse; but all this is changed and only for the better. New methods of farming hav«£r» volutionized this basic industry. One need never ask. are cows kept. Ev­ery cultivatey field pays high tribute to their presence. Farm machinery is seen all along the roads at almost every farm home. Fine flocks of high producing poultry are common sights; new sources of income, new methods of management, but behind all, above all, and most important of all, the spirit of progress motivating the minds of the people. Notonly is Mocksville a new, a more beautiful, a more progressive town than ik former years, but Da vie county |s realiy a new county. Its long past is both interesting and instructive, and. its achievements should be Bh inspiration for future accomplishments..Let me say, too, that no single factor has played a more important part in every line of progress than the local newspapers. Thdr influ­ ence is indispensiDle. invaluable and incalculable. CHAS. H. UTLEY. Sanford & BlackweIder Herd Win Recognition. Petersborough, N.

Bq B e n A u e s William s BEM AMEi WlUiAnp w . w* A tr v ie A CHAPTER XX , Peter was In danger, and the men Iiunting for them would be in dan­ ger. As much to protect these oth­ ers as to save himsell, Richard de­cided to dig his way out. He had for tools the stout club, about four Ieet long, two inches thick, one end shod with iron; and he had his pocket knile. He whit­ tled the end of the club into a flat, chisel-shaped blade, not too sharp, not sharp enough to break easily. Then he began to dig steps up the Blde of the pit. For the first few feet, the sides sloped outward. That was easy; but above that, they be­came perpendicular. He began to excavate a sort of spiral gallery around the sides of the pit; a shelf wide enough for him to lie on, on his stomach, while he reached up ahead of him and loosened the soft stuff with the end of his club, and then scraped it out with his right hand, flinging it over the side of the shelf to fall to the bottom of foe pit. The dust of his digging through the charred, half-burned peat choked him. He descended and drank water from the pool, and wetted his handkerchief and tied it across his mouth and nose. While there was still some light, he had been able to climb ten feet above the floor of the pit; but then the light failed and he worked in dark­ness. Some time later, the shelf on which he lay broke off under his weight, and he fell, rolling down Into the water again. He guessed that he had reached a point where the walls of the pit began to dope inward; so that there was nothing ' to support the gallery he excavated so laboriously. He would have to tunnel upward through the solid peat and reach the surface somewhere to one side of foe hole. He began to do so. Almost at once foe texture of the peat became tougher. Till now he had worked in stuff half-burned, the life baked out of it by foe heat of those old fires; but now it began to have substance end cohesion, held together by grass roots dead centuries ago. His task beeEime increasingly laborious. Us­ ing the chisel-shaped end of his dub like a narrow spade, he drove it upward, cut around blocks of peat, (uid then with his right hand clawed these blocks free. He burrowed like a mole. The tunnel he dug was no larger than necessary. If he could wedge his body through it, and have room to use his club, he was content. There was now some moisture in the peat through which he tunneled, and not much dust; neverthdess thirst har­ assed him.Once when he went down to drink, he saw that there was light In the hole at foe top of foe pit. The short southern night was ending. Dawn was near. A long while after that, he realized by foe tougher fibre of the chunks he tore away that he had reached live grass roots. The realization, even though it proved he was near foe surface of foe ground and promised an early end to his labors, did not speed them. He worked slow and slower, tired without knowing it, sluggish with weariness. He thrust the pointed dub upward with a heave of shoulders and back, his feet braced hard. Presently one of these thrusts sent the club through into open air. There was still the mat of grass roots to rip apart; but five minutes later Richard dragged himself like a crip­ pled mole through the opening he bad made, and lay prone. It was Corkran, following the'bro­ ken trail through.the tall grass, who hours later found him there. Aboard the Venturer, George and Mary kept their vigil; George by the desk with the revolver and the bomb gun ready, Mary at the cabin window through which she could see the boats' on shore. After a long time, George heard a voice on deck, a sudden cry; so he knew foe truth before Mary spoke. She turned with glowing eyes; she whispered: “They’ve found him! He*s walking. Two of them are help­ ing him. George, Richtud is alive!" George' nodded. “Then they’ll be at us," he reminded her. He knew what to expect. Since the men had found Richard, Peter must hold foe Venturer and escape in her, or be damned. To hold her against foe men in the boats, he must have foe guns. George did not stop to consider what means Peter had in hand. He meant to hold foe cabin against any odds. U he could. But he might fail. In foe sudden imminence of crisis now, like a revelation, he real­ ized that even if he failed, he could still leave Peter weaponless. He spoke to Mary, sharply. “Take all those cartridge boxes, foe pow­ der, everything. Break foe window. Throw it all overboard." ‘ Sie began to throw out foe boxes of cartridges. Someone on deck heard them splash in foe water and looked over foe rail and saw what •she was doing, and shouted a warn­ ing. “Stop that down there, you!"! George shouted back: “I’ll shoot foe first man who shows himself I” Looking up through foe companion he could see nothing ex­cept. foe sky, and a segment of foe rail. Mary kept at her task, working fast smd without pause, till it was None. The sounds over his head kept George’s attention fixed on foe com­ panion. No movement in foe main cabin warned him; but it wa3 from that quarter that foe attack came. Rannels, Gee, Hurd, and Peter were united by foe greedy hope of reward. Peter had won them by promises, playing on each accord­ ing to his appetite. For weapons, they had the edged tools of foe whale fishery; harpoons, lances, spades. It was only necessary to find a chance to use them. With this in mind, Peter planned to draw George’s eye in one direction, to attack from another. He set Ran­ nels by foe cabin companion with a cutting-in spade, foe keen chisel blade six inches across, the handle long enough so that Rannels from foe deck could reach foe cabin floor. He posted Hurd on top of foe after house where from high overhead he could see down through foe glass of the skylight and dart a harpoon at any mark that offered. He directed Gee to take an axe down into the main cabin and strike foe door into the common room a smashing blow that would make George turn that way. When he thus turned, Ran­ nels, at the companion, or Hurd, dEurting foe great harpoon, would kill him from above. When the others were in position foe Negro went below. Peter him­ self would take no active part in foe affray. Gee was barefooted, and he moved silently. He was accustomed to use an axe left-handed. The door he had to attack swung into foe after cabin, foe hinges on foe port side. Gee stood on that side when he swung the axe. He delivered that blow with a nervous violence which proved his own destruction. The axe hit foe panels just beside foe bolt, and foe flimsy screws flew out and the door flew open so esisilyfoat Gee by his own weight was pulled forward, foe axe and his swinging arms drag­ ging him off balance, into foe door­way. George, when foe Negro struck, WM standing at foe foot of foe com­ panionway, looking up, foe bomb gun in his hands, foe door into the main cabin ten feet away and be­ hind him. At foe crash of foe axe blow, he whirled and saw foe Negro- in foe doorway. Gee bawled in dis­ may, trying to leap clear, as George lifted foe bomb gun and fired. At foe sound of foe axe, Rannels stepped to foe top of foe companion- way above George. At foe foot of foe companionway he saw George swing to face Gee, and as George lifted foe bomb gun, Rannels stabbed downward with foe long spade. He aimed at the nape of George’s neck. If foe blow had struck fairly, it would have decapitated foe man be­ low; but foe recoil of the gun knocked George off balance back­ ward. He was already falling when Ratmels struck, so foe harpooner missed his aim. The spade that would have caught George in the neck, instead slid over his shoulder and down his left arm. It bit into his forearm just below foe elbow. It sliced foe flesh like a razor, grat­ ed on foe bone. George, thrown backward by foe recoil, fell on his left side. The smoke of powder from foe gun’s thunderous discharge had instantly filled foe cabin; but through this smoke as he lay on his side he saw Rannels at foe head of foe comp&n- krnway recovering foe spade to strike again. He rolled on his back, dodging that blow; and he dragged the revolver, already cocked, out of his belt and fired it upward blind- far.’ The heavy slug struck Rannels in foe breast bone. He slid feet first down the coitnpanionway and lay in a huddle on foe cabin floor. The thinning smoke made George cough. He heard a fEiint sound that seemed to be far away, and realized it was a voice, and saw Mary on her knees here beside him. Mary was trying to hold him. He pushed her away. He had not meant to do this violently; but under his thrust she staggered backward till she collided with foe comer of foe desk. He shook his head regretfully. Too bad to hurt her; but he had business in hand. He looked for Gee, tmd saw him with a CEdm surprise. George had not heard foe bomb explode; but it had exploded. There was no doubt of that. Gee was in foe main cabin, on foe floor by foe table. Something had flung him backward; but what lay there had been Gee. It must have been. The skin was black. Mary was here again, ripping at. his coat, trying to tear away,foe sleeve, trying .to tend, the terrible wound in his arm. Weakness swept over George in a slow, sick wave; yet his mind was dear enough. Ran­ nels was dead, and Gee too; but in a minute now he, George HcAus- Uuid, .would collapsed from loss of blood, and lie helpless here, and foen.Peter could come down add get foe guns.. ThEit had tobe Mopped. Hemust kill Peter while he could. 'George decided to go through the main cabin into foe. steerage--and thus reach foe deck. Mary was try­ ing to hold him, but he put her aside. Whatever she was saying did not matter. It could not matter. He must reach foe deck somehow, and manage Peter Corr. Msny hin­ dered him. . He seid to her in an Maborate whisper, loudfar, so that she would be sure to understand: "Stay here. Talk, Make them think I’m here." He pushed her aside, and she was thrown three or four steps back­ ward against the wall and fell. He thought: Why, I must be strong, really strong, to do that! Too badl Poor Mary! He went through foe after ’tween decks. He moved briskly, the re­ volver in his- right hand, his left arm hanging. He remembered to cock the revolver before he started to climb to the deck. He could not help himself with his left hand, be-' cause it would not do what he want ed it to. do; and he had to hold the revolver ready in his other hand; so he went up foe companionway very slowly, pushing himself with his feet, his body leaning forward against the treads. The housing looked aft. When his head rose above foe deck level, he faced foe mizzenmast. He crawled out of the companion on his hands and knees; Emd foe revolver in his right hand thumped on foe deck. Peter heard that sound afid turned and saw him. Peter was on the starboard side of foe cabin companion, by the door of the potato room where Tommy Hanline slept. He had a boat spade poised ready to slice at anyone whose head appeared in the compan­ ion. George saw him. George did not see Hurd. Hurd was on foe port side, beyond the door of the galley, where old Willie Leeper, as though blind to all that went on aboard here, persistently banged and clattered at his work. Hurd had a boat spade too. But George did not see him. He saw Peter, and Peter saw George and leaped toward him. George fell on his face and rolled on his side' and lifted foe revolver and shot. Peter ducked and dodged; and suddenly he screamed like a wom­ an. Panic fear broke him down. He turned to run aft toward foe com­ panion, squalling as he ran. George thumbed back the ham­ mer of the revolver and shot again. Peter seemed to trip Emd fall, and he no longer screamed. George, ly­ ing on his side, his cheek against the deck, foe revolver flat on foe deck at his arm’s length, pulled foe hammer and shot again and again, slowly, laboriously fuming through eyes half closed. After a space, foe hammer clicked on an empty cylinder, He could do nothing more. He rolled on his back and looked up; and then his eyes opened wid.e in clear recognition of what was about to happen to him. Hurd, the little Cockney, stood over him in silhouette against the sky and the web of rigging. Hurd was lift­ ing his boat spade to strike. He seemed to stand there motionless; and time had stopped, and instants were eternal. / CHAPTER XXI Behind Hurd—George could see him under Hurd’s uprsused arms— Willie I<eeper was holding upraised a heavy cleaver. Before Hurd’s spade stopped going up for foe down­ ward blow at George, foe cleaver, already lifted, began to descend. It CEune slowly agfunst Hurd’s neck, on foe side under the ear, at an angle inward. The broad keen blade; went far in and in. The spade In Hurd’s hands dropped to the deck. The blade of it brushed against George’s side, and stuck in foe planking; and foe spade stood erect for 'a moment, and then fell over sidewise as foe blade, for lack of Emy deep hold, broke out of foe planking. Tlie han­ dle fell across George’s body. Hurd fell foe other way, making choking sounds. Willie Leeper looked: down at him. Willie stud in a pip­ ing, thin voice to Hurd dying on foe deck: “There, drat ye!”George laughed. That was funny. He had never heard Willie speak be­ fore. Willie had a thin, squeaking voice that was completely absurd. George was much amused. Then he forgot Willie, for here was Mary. George rolled his head sidewise to look at Peter lying on foe deck aft; but Peter had not moved, so everything was all right He told her so. He said carefully: “Everything’s all right Mary." He tried to nod, to reassure her. “It’s all right Mary,” he repeated. She said fiercely: “Hush! Oh, my brave dear!",“It’s all right,” he insisted, and smiled. Something was running out of him. His life. It wcu running out through his arm, fast; but he must be sure Mstry understood, so that she would be happy, afterward. He tried to tell her that he knew she loved Richard, that he knew she and Richard were fine, that it was all right, that she was not'to feel badly about him, or about anything. But so much of him had MresufaE run out that there was not enough of him left to say what he wished to say ; and while he lay happy In Mary’s arms, foe rest’ran out in a dwindling* little stream. 1 On a day almost four months Iati er, under all 'sail, ’the Venturer moved serenely, upon a white-capped sesu: Richard had. for foe moment gone, below- Mat Forbes was aft, Tommy Hanline proudly taking-a turn at foe wheeL ' Corlaan add Mary stood together by foe star­ board rail amidships; and foe par­ rot, nibbled a t Corkran’s ear, and whispered wheedlingly.

THE HOLX SPIRIT INSPIRES - NEW TESTAMENT LETTERS LESSON TEXT-Calattans 1:11. 12; I Thessalonlans 2:13: n Timothy 3:14-17; U Peter 3:14-1«: Jude 3. GOLDEN TEXT—AU scripture Is given by Inspiration of God, and Is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,-for correction, for in- struction In righteousness.—n Timothy 3: IS. Letters are usually interesting, frequently very important, and al­ ways revealing as to the character and interests of the writer. That is generally true of ordinary daily mail, but how very true it is of the letters of Scripture, the epistles of Peter, Paul, Jude, and John. For in them “holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost” (H Pet. 1:21). L The Gospel (Gal. 1:11, 12; I Thess- 2:13). The good news (for that is the meaning of “gospel") of salvation by grace through fsiith in Jesus Christ as Saviour has from foe very beginning of its proclamation been subject to attack. Men are not con­ tent to receive God’s way of salva­ tion, but want to add something to it, adjust its requirements to meet new situations, to tinker and twist. 1. A Divine Revelation (GaL I: 11,12). Paul was not presenting some­ thing which he or some other man had “worked up,” but a message that he had "prayed down.” Paul was only delivering that which he had received from God (see I Cor. 15:1-4). He was careful that it should not be confused with or by the teachings of men, so he “con- ferred not with flesh and blood” (see Gal. 1:15, 16). We too are privileged to proclaim a divine revelation which has come to us in foe inspired Word of God. How delightfully sweet and tremen­ dously powerful is the message which we may thus bring forth. It has no human frailty and weakness, no human error, and no misleading philosophies. It does not need to be revised every year or two. Itis God’s eternal message of redemp­ tion. 2. A Message of Salvation (I Thess. 2:13). It works in those who believe. Xes, it does—blessed be the name of God! God’s Book says so, and the experience of hundreds of thou­ sands of men and women over a period of almost 2,000 years agrees. Note, however, that to work, foe message must not only be “re­ ceived,” but also “accepted” as- foe Word of God. The message of foe Bible may be received as a matter of fact, but for salvation it must be accepted and believed as a matter of faith. H. The Bible (H Tim. 3:14-17; H Pet. 3:14-16). Near foe end of a life given in utter sacrifice to God’s cause, Paul is ready to be used of foe Holy Spirit to speak concerning foe writ­ ten Word. I. Tf Is God-Inspired (II Tim. 3: 14-17). B,e sure to read this passage* in foe Aufoorized Version. The Re- ' vised has' taken liberties with this - verse,which foe finest.'Scholarship does: hot countenance. It properly reads, “AU scripture is given bYiri- spiration of God,' and is profitable for doctrine (teaching),.for reproof, for correction,I-for instruction,” etc. Other 9Ucioks .may ,claim some kind or mea^ure of human inspiration— this Bbok':is inspired of God. If there were space, proof of foe truth of that statement could easily be given. It is available for Edl who want to believe it.- 2. It Is Not to Be Wrested (H Pet. 3:14-16). II permitted to do so, God’s Word wiU bring peace of heart, make a man spotless and blameless (v. 14). But its salvation (v. 15) is not for those who ignorantly, or because of their ignorance, or because they are not steadfast in their tives, wrest its truth. Let us receive foe Word with gladness, not twist it or distort its meaning to our own destruction, IU. The Faith (Jude 3). 1. It Was “Delivered Once for AU.” It is a final revelation from God. There is no-other gospel, and there never wiU be another. What assur­ ance that gives us both in believing it and proclaiming it! But the world hates this gospel, and attacks on it are to be expected. Therefore 2. It Is to Be Earnestly Contend­ ed For. „ No matter 1 how peaceable we may be, how loving and tender­ hearted, if and when attack is made upon foe Lordship of Christ, when men make Ught of sin, and so seem to minimize the vital im­ portance of holiness of life—then, however unpleasant contention and controversy may be to us, it is tune we- cast our self-regard aside and contend eEunestly for foe faith once for aU delivered to foe saints ." 1 (J.

Writing lor the Bdl Syndicate, ha laid:“The reforming of grown people never interests me. If we teach children what is good for them and do our best to protect them from evil we will not have too many adults to reform. That is why the cocktail hour that offers stimulating drinks to young people In their late 'teens and early 20 ’s seems so dangerous to me.“Young people are stimulated by the wine of youth.

Temperance Poster they have to keep an even balance without taking on additional stimula­ tion in the form of a cocktail.“The afternoon gathering and the need for relaxation and gaiety are set in the day’s routine by nature. Cocktails are not nature's way of re­ lieving the situation and we who are in any way responsible for the welfare of young people should be quick to save the situation by pro­viding the needful dements without falling back on stimulants.“Music will help tremendously provided it is selected with an eye to its effect. Tea is a good stimu­lant A good drink—tasty, sparkling, snappy—can be made by combining tea, fruit juices and ginger-ale. It can be lovely in color and when served in dainty glasses is quite as attractive as any cocktail. It will smell better and taste as good and K will do its work without robbing youth of its charm and its brains.“A body without its mind is an awful sight, especially when that body is usually occupied by an in­telligent, able mind. . . . It’s an awful sight and one no young person would wish to Imprint on frienda' memories.” Drink, Drive, Die! » Aioahol Ftas OH m Very few Americans would get into an automobile driven by a “doped up” driver. Yet, scientific leaders time and again have labeled .alcohol “a dangerous poison and a narcotic.” There were 32,600 motor vehicle deaths in 1939 and the National Safe­ty Council, disinterested authority, sass Drinking DmersorPickled Pedestrians are involved in one out of four fatal accidents. That would seem to make liquor— beer, wine or split its—a factor in 8,150 deaths. The reason, ac­cording to authorities, is that a .drink or two puts the nerves and brain to sleep, dulling thinking, blurring vision, lessening hearing, and confusing reactions. Prof. H. L. HoUingworth of Co­lumbia University and Dr. Walter R. Miles of the Carnegie Nutrition !laboratory in Boston recently made /separate laboratory tests of the ef­ fects of small quantities of alcohol which showed definite results in.nar­cotizing of nerve centers. Hie highway and city street death toll is the reason for a mounting de­ mand that government “keep the drink out of the [driver or keep the driver out of the 'car.”It is one major reason why the 'Grange in some sta te s has de- siaaded that no taverns be li­ censed outside city areas. It is the reason for .strong sentiment against curb service of alcoholic .beverages. It is one of the strongest proofs that the public pays mot* than money for its relegalized liquor traffic. The W.C.T.U. reminds that the original word “narcotic” was al­ most identical with the root word 'for “snare” and “noose’-’- That “Equal* a Death Ride” LUl'KWUHHU ItL BUY THAT SHOT* GON NON* I SOLD SOME WITH A WAKfT AD Sdl41W UteEM iuIt* ,.B nrW InlY iM i W aatI *5Sg^WOR#Yf I CARRY A rm .

Now and then some little atheist add Infidel rises up and says, "There is no God.’’ God calls him a fool. Listen to His holy word. "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no GodJ” Now when God calls a man a fool I have no right to deny it. He may be a Voltare, a Tom Payne, or a Robert Inger- soil; but regardless of who he is, God calls him a fool. “Oh,’’ you say, "these men were intelligent. They were educated. They knew the Bible. Ingersoll was a great orator. Certainly he could not have been a fool." Re. gardless of how well one may be educated, or how intelligent he is, or how well be speaks before the public, or what may be the posit ion he holds, God absolutely brands him as a fool. He may be a fool lawyer, as some are, or a hanker, or a statesman, or a writer, or a teacher, or an inventor. That makes no difference. Who be­ stows his honor and respect upon atheists and Infidels? Why, people think so little of them that they won’t name their. children af.er them. How many namesakes do Voltare, Payne and Bob Ingersall have today? Not one that I know of. Even the followers of these infidels don’t think enough of them to name their children after them. That’s so. If they were so great, brilliant, intelligent; so well edu­ cated, and were right, why don’t men and nations honor and respect them? Why don’t they celebrate their birthdays? Why don’t they name their sons after them? Why don’t they erect great monuments to their memories? Siinply because they know they were wrong. They cursed the world. And all who rise up and follow in their foot­ steps likewise curse the world, and when they are gone they go “un­ wept, unhonored and- unsung." Absolutely. And the most of them are soon forgotten, except the fact that they were fools whose belief, teachings and influence makes oth­ er fools. No infidel lives a great life, nei­ ther does he die a victorious death. They call upon God when it is too late, Thedylngtestimonies of a- theists and infidels is something fearful. How different to the dy­ ing testimonials of the followers of Jesus Christ and the saints of God! No infidel can be happy in bis in­ fidelity, neither can be die happy. Only .the true Christian lives a blessed life and bas a triumphant departure out of this world. This is life’s better way. Weather. With the thermometer hovering a- round the century mark and the mark and the sweat (perspiration would’t be a fitting word), pouring like rain in a cloudburst, we know that this column, like the show, must goon. If everybody can talk about the weather we can write about it. Ain’t this humidity awfulT In con­ trast we want to think about the good old days last winter when'wool blankets were so comfortable. To keep from thinking about the weath­ er which makos us hotter, we read a blankets sale ad this morning. After mopping the sweat we read adescip- tion of a blanket which you can cud* die about your feet getting frost­ bitten. Thatmusthavemeant that it was all wool and yards long.— Wilkes Patriot. Onr Want Adi The Farmer’s Gamble. Iredell farmers are complaining that current rains are about to play havoc with the wheat in their fields —that it is sprouting in the shock or being beaten to the ground as it stands. We suspect that the weather is not altogether to blame.. There is an inclination to be tardy about bousing grain after it is harvested, taking the gamble that the weather man will have a heart. Corn is often left in bottoms over-long when always there is the possibility of flood. And then we are in a period of change in harvesting methods. The wheat combine that cuts and thresh, es at the same time has not been sufficiently adopted to make com, bines available to every farmer. Many of our farmers have been de­ pending on these and have left their wheat standing waiting for this ser­ vice. Some of them have had to wait too long. That is something that probably will be corrected in the future. The acreage of many farmers does not justify investment in a combine, but joint ownership provides the way out. With the certainty that the one-purpose threshing unit is on the way out, small wheat farm­ ers would do well to sense that fact and protect themselves by joining with their neighbors to assure that next harvest time will not find them out in the rain, in more ways than one. It is more than tragic to see any crop that has cost much in time, money and energy to produce, waste in the fields. It accentuates the gamble the farmers must take. It also indicates the necessity to hedging against nature, when hed­ ging is possible. And we venture to say that those who are now faced with this serious difficulty can reflect that it could have been a- voided—if they had hedged on their bet.—Statesville Daily. Hard Liquor Maniacs. International Christian Endeavor society thinks it would be a good thing to return to prohibition so the people may live together in sobri­ ety and happiness." That would be nice. Unfortunately, American a re cursed with a fondness for hard li­ quor. They like for their liquor to bite them, slap them down and toss them about. People of some na­ tions are able to sit at a sidewalk table for hours and sip of a weak alcoholic concoction. Imagine a red blooded American doing that! He likes to take his standing up and the only use he has for a table while engaging in drinking bouts is to slide under it after an hour’s hard work. Efforts have been made by some leaders to teach the American to like light wines and beer but that doesn't work. They don’t kick a man in the face, slug him on the back of the head and rip out his tonsils. They don’t take the skin off his throat, the lining from his stomach, electrify his toenails and jolt his gizzard. ProhiMtion is a good goal but it seems far distant. The Americao is out to enjoy himself and -mis­ takenly thinks he must make a jackass of himself to do it. He’s going to do it the bard way, with hard liquor.—Charlotte Observer. Not Io Georgia. Governor Eugene Talmadge of Georgia, when asked by Rresideiit Roosevelttoproclaim daylight sav­ ing time for that state, eurtly re­ plied: "I won’t do it." "How dif. ferent is North Carolina where the "rubber stamo" governor is trying to find if it is legal for him to fol­ low FDR’s request.—Ex. What’s The Answer? Endless statistics can be cited to ’prove" that a defense boom creat­ ed Government spending on relief for the unemployed. The country’s industrial produc tion is now tar above the 1929 mark. But it is argued that machines have made it possible for fewer workers to produce more; that the "work ing population" has increased by some 600,000 each year; and so, while only about a million persons weie unemployed in 1929 , there are now more than 6,500,000. There are specific situations where that argument seems very difficult to apply; for instance, the situation in Allegheny County (Pittsburgh) i n Pennsylvania. That county’s total population gain from 1930 to 1940 . is shown by the census as only 33,160. The in. crease of working population’’ must be less. Yet the Pittsburg Press reports that 50,000 more persons than in 1929 are now on private payrolls, earning $10,000,000 a month more. There would seem to be less need for relief in that county than there was in 1929 . But whereas in 1929 there was practically no govern­ mental relief — no WPA and no other Federal relief—in early May, this year, there were 14,432 per­ sons on WPA and 23,400 cases on local direct relief.—Washington (D. C.J Daily News. Taxpayers Paying (Skyland Post) One of the favorite arguments of those who see any justification in defense strikes is this: If a com- pany is increasing its profits be- cause of kefense orders there is no reason why labor shouldn’t share in that increased profit." That is certainly the best reason offered for rapid wage increases, but it doesn’t hold much water un­ der the present defense contract set up. For when wages are increased above what they were when a de­ fense contract was made, the gov­ ernment, not the employer, is billed. The contracts, aren’t as simple as that, but that is what they amount to. Take the North American A- viation company, for instance; in its contract with the government will reimburse it for wage increase for the airplane industry as a whole. If the wages for the airplane in dustry go up to 20 per cent and North America’s increases go up 25 per cent, the company loses 5 percent, if their wages go up 15 per cent, the company gains 5 per cent and if their wages go up the average amount of 20 per cent the government takes care of that in­ crease. The reason for such clauses in contracts is based on the fact that such contracts are made to cover cost plus what the government con­ siders a fair profit. If the com­ pany had to stand the loss due to to wage increases, it would not, in the government’s opinion, make a fair profit and would probably suf fer losses. When wages are raised in defense industries, it is the taxpayer and not the employer who has to foot the bill. _____________ It Won’t Be Long. The Record said last week that it wont be long until the good old watennellon will be ripening on the vine and there is always something to be thankful for," but if our edit* or friend Stroud thinks Davie coun ty water-mellons are to be ripe be­ fore the big Masonic picnic at Mocks­ ville he’s badly mistaken. That’s a month off yet. He’s seen some white garden squashes through cracks of some Davie county wheat farmer’s garden.—Wilkesboro HuBtier. Land posters for sale at Tha Racotd offica.

They are talking about a "cooling off" period for industrial disputes, but there is no mention made of a 'cooling off" period for the tax­ payers The truth is “you hatn’t seen nothin’ yet." There is much talk today that we are following in France’s fatal footsteps. And it isn’t just gab. The frightful sewer of subversion flows right thru our national life and don’t let anybody tell you dif­ ferently. We are wondering and wonder­ ing what President Roosevelt will do about this strike situation. Hit Ier could not work greater havoc in this country than the strikers are now doing. In Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. t, Pre­ sident Roosevelt said: "The first purpose of our foreign policy is to keep this country out of war.” Well it looks as if "our" policy is going to be just about as good as Woodrow Wilson’s to "keep us out.” We note that Luther Patrick, Alabama Democratic Congressman, was beaten up recently by a drunk­ en soldier, as he rode a train to Washington. And Patrick is of the party that said repeal would re­ duce crime.

Chatham’s Advice. Thurmond Chatham head of the great Chatham Manufacturing Co., at Elkin has recently passed along to his employees some ot the best advice we have seen handed from employer to employee. “Look a- round you he said in his letter ac­ companying bonus checks, "those who have saved year by year, kept their credit good and made wise in. vestment, are on their way to securi­ ty . . . I cant help but repeat — pay your bills, keep your credit good and invest something regular­ ly." And, honestly, we believe if ever such advice needed be given and heeded, it is now when there is so much uncertainty. Paving bills helps to stabilize the economy of the nation; keeping one’s credit in good shape tends to increase faith in one another and in the democra­ tic system; investment in homes or dependable enterprises or in sav­ ings accounts, provides for that rainy day that will eventually come to each one of us, as well as the making for better citizenship. Thutmond Chatham is at all times thoughtful and considerate of bis employees. That’s one rea­ son why he makes the world’s fin­ est blankets. And such thought­ fulness and consideration for em­ ployees by this great industrialist has been so much in evididence in the year gone by that it bas be­ come commonplace. But, as the Elkin Tribune expressed it, “we have an abiding faith that the re­ cipients of these favors will never so regard them or appraise them other than an unusual manifesta­ tion of the interest of the manage­ ment of a great industry has in those who contribute to its success. Would that American industry had more executive like Thurmond Chatham, who is a worthy son of a most worthy father.—Ex. Huddeberries In Gar­ den.

Notes of an Innocent Bystander: Magic Carpet: Ralph Ingersoll,the publisher, now on his way to Russia (to interview Stalin) was complaining to Steve Early at the White House the other day. “Steve,” Ingersoll intoned, “those Russians are holding my passport.” “They are?” responded Steve. “And they want us to give them a hundred million dollars worth of machinery!” Steve then called the State Dep’t and, before Ingersoll knew it, he was on his way to Moscow. Eyebrow Lifter: Mr. Ingersoll was saying before he left that he had Just learned the hardest thing to find in Russia was a Communist. “How’s that?” he was asked.“Because,” he explained, “the population of Russia is 160,000,000, and there are only 5,000,000 party members.” Despite the rigid censorship in Germany, the underground manages to circulate the latest news picked up via short-wave from England and America.

Another popular method is to tell about a speech heard on the Nazi station and praise it and then add how a foreign station cut in with a “lot of lies.” The speaker repeats the “lies” he heard, and his listen­ers get the drift. . .

By VIRGINIA VALE (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) WHEN it was decided that the new Garbo picture would get under way on Fri­ day the thirteenth, the assist­ ant--director called the cast together to see if anybody’s superstitions would get in the way. Melvyn Douglas said that Fri­day was a lucky day for him, and the fact that it was the thirteenth would make it so much the better. Ruth Gor­ don, who gave up a number of summer stock engagements to take this one in pictures, declared that'she deliberate­ly walks under lad­ ders, and loves black cats. Roland GretoGarbc Yowig said that he d bring along one of his china penguins, to break the evil spell of the jinx. As for Miss Garbo, she said nothing—just showed up on time. Janet Blair used to be the fea­tured vocalist with the late Hal Kemp’s orchestra; now she has a Columbia contract and one of the top feminine roles in “Three Girls About Town.” She’ll play the young­ er sister of Joan Blondell. David Niven not only went back to England to serve his country, but he’s been made a major. Bing Crosby had a letter from him in which he mentioned the pro­motion. He heads a squadron of defense troops which is sta­tioned on the Eng­lish coast opposite France. In his let­ter he said that no less than 20 invad­ing Nazi bombing planes had been knocked down above his sector the previous night. David Niven The March of Time’s newest re­lease, “New England’s Eight Mil­lion Yankees,” shows how the six northeastern states, are making themselves invasion-proof.

It’s called "Cowboy Joe” temporarily, and Glenn Ford plays opposite her. She’d made a name for herself as a singer and dancer on the Broadway stage before she went to Hollywood, and her nine "Blondie” comedies have made one for her in Hollywood. The office of Heinrich Himmler, chief of Nazi SS men, is as authen­tic a reproduction in Warner Bros.’ “Underground” as following actual photographs could make it. Himm­ler does not permit photos of his of­ fice to be released; however, Kurt Schmidt, technical adviser on “Un­ derground,” made some when he was in favor with’ the SS head, and smuggled them out of the country when he escaped two years ago. The film shows Himmler’s dreaded office for the first time. —*— Bob Hope, who soared to film pop­ularity with the song "Thanks for the Memory,” will have another op­portunity to warble an outstanding number, when he sings "Yon Can’t Brnsh Me Off” in "Louisiana Pur­chase,” which Paramount will pro­duce. Lately he’s been content merely to be one of the funniest men on the screen. His “Caught in the Draft” is hilarious, though the script writers dug up some of the oldest jokes in existence for It. Eddie Bracken hangs up a few laurels for himself in this one too. With the exception of a few minor weekly cast additions, all the regu­lar roles on the new “Hap Hazard” radio series,' the summer replace­ ment for “Fibber McGee and Mol­ly,” have been assigned. It stars Ransom Sherman,' and features the singing of Edna O’Dell and Billy Mills’ orchestra. Nowadays people in radio have begun to take these summer replacement shows seri­ously.

We’re near home.”Mary nodded, dreaming. “We’ve been a long time shipmates, Mr. Corkran.”“Aye, ma’am, since the day you came aboard at Honolulu. And I was shipmates with himself before that.” His eyes were warm. “There was a fine one! Oh, he was a sore trouble to himself, but fair and fine tor all that. I loved that little man.” “He’d be proud of you now. You’ve changed, Mr. Corkran.” She smiled. “You were a pagan, once, you know.”"Well, the sea has a way with a man,” he reminded her. “It’ll make him or mar him, one way and an­other. Give it long enough and it will show you what's inside him, ev­ery time. Look at Peter Coir, for one, ma’am, and himself for an­other. Not but what I knew from m , - "We’ve been a long time ship­ mates, Mr. Corkran.” the first that himself was a man un­der alL"After a little, she asked: “Cork­ ran, what do you think Peter meant to do?”"Meanness, ma’am. Any kind that offered. He was one would do any­thing for loot, if he could find the spine for it, or get other men to take the risk for him. No knowing now what all was in his black mind. It’s sure he tried to talk Rever­ence himself into killing the Cap’n. With the Cap’n dead, all else would be in Peter’s hands. Hewouldhave figured so.” "Do you think he meant Cap’n Corr to fall into the pit that day?” “lake as not! He’d been up there his own self the day before, after pig; and he must have seen many traps of the like sort in the tussocks. Whilei we were bunting the Cap’n, we found a dozen pits like that one, or less, or maybe bigger; and there was a pig that had fresh fallen in, squealing and grunting in one of them. Aye, the mate might have meant it; but more like he just hoped it If he’d seen the Cap’n standing on the very lip of the pit I doubt he’d have had the heart to push him in. It was a trouble to that one that he had not the insides in him to do all the black things he could think of that.he’d like to do. He’s dead, rest him; but he was a bad one while he lived." He said in so­ ber judgment: “Let that one be for­ got by every decent man forever Amen. Himself is the fine one to remember,-and us be the better for remembering.” “i always will,” she whispered. “Aye.” Corkran looked at her wisely; but then he said in a new tone: “Himself knew more than most, ma’am. A wise one, that. He knew always more than you might think.” “Well, for one thing, I’m mean­ ing it was a fair fine word he said, to bid me go back and find Cap’n Corr that night; and a braVe strong one he was to say it. If he had not bid me go, I’d.not have gone; and well he knew it, for well he knew I was his man. And if I’d not gone, Mat Forbes would not. So it was himself sent us back to fetch the Cap’n, and him knowing what he knew about the true thing between the .two of you. Aye, it was a grand fine thing for him to do.” She said quietly: “In my arms, at the last, he kept telling me that ev­ erything was all right.” “Aye, he would. A man, that." There was a movement aft and he looked that way. Richard had come on deck. Her eyes followed Cork- ran’s, and rested on Richard, and Corkran added quietly beside her: “That was what himself meant, when he told you everything was right. I tell you, he knew.” “Did he, surely?” she asked. “Aye. He. knew. When he told me we must' go back, he paid the Cap’n a great compliment, ma’am; and yourself too. But you’ve de­ served it, both of you.” She looked at him for a long mo­ment. “How have we deserved it?” die asked slowly. He smiled at her. “Has the Cap’n said yet one word to you of the thing you’re both thinking every minute that you live?” “No, Corkran.” He touched her arm. “That’s how you’ve deserved the way himself rat­ed you. But—let you not wait too long, nor the Cap’n either. Himself would not want you to wait longer than a fair decent time; and that you’ve done.” And when she did not speak, he said quietly: “Be not un­ easy, ma’am. U the Cap’n has not yet said his mind—and his heart— he will." She met his eyes honestly, smiling a little. “Yes,” she said. “I know he will. When we’re home.” Her eyes were warm and deep. “I know what he will say, Corkran." “Aye,” he assented. “And what you’ll'say, PU be bound.” He chuck­ led. “Not that words will be mat­ tering to either one of you.”• Richard came toward them, his eyes quickening on Mary as he drew near; but before he reached them, Big Pip called from the crosstrees: “Land ho, Cap’n!” Richard looked up, and Big Pip swung his arm to point. “Dead ahead!” he cried. A great shout rose, and men'went swarming into the rigging to^ee for themselves the dim-blue line on the horizon. Corkran moved forward; but Richard stayed with Mary, and he looked down at her, not speaking. The parrot on Corkran’s shoulder watched them standing together, their eyes embracing, forgetting all the world. Head on one side,- the bird drawled: “Mighty pretty.” Corkran lifted the parrot down, held it in front of tain so that it would not see them. "And why not,” he said in mild chiding; ‘.‘and what right has a bird like you to peek and peer at them? Himself would have it as it is. Whose business is it anyway, but his, and theirs? Hush you, and let be.”[THE END] fouth Without iFeeling* Baffles Physicians The case of Charles Leonard, In­dianapolis newsboy who is not sen­ sitive to heat or cold, does not feel pain and can not identify objects through the sense of touch, is a baffling one for physicians. The 18-year-old carrier, who has been examined at intervals the last two years by medical authorities, apparently has a rare ailment be­lieved to have been caused by elec­tric shock. Although his condition causes more-or less discomfort, it is not regarded dangerous. On the other hand, physicians seem unable to discover an effective treatment. Bi a series of .tests given hits, it was determined that the youth can not distinguish between hot and cold articles and he apparently feels no pain from pinching, pin pricks or even a solid blow. Physicians hand­ ed him two test tubes, one extreme­ly hot and the other cold and Leon­ ard could not decide which was the heated one. Hesaysheisaware oif a slap on the back: but can not de­termine the force of the blow. Likewise, a cut or scratch causes no discomfort other than bleeding. Leonard exhibited a deep scratch on his left forearm, caused when he fell against .a wire fence and declared he experienced no pain and noticed the injury only when, the blood started. At the newsstand where he is em­ployed, Leonard said he was scuf­fling recentlywith, another, carrier and jokingly told the youth to'“hit me hard.” “The boy hit me on the chin hard enough to jar my head back,” Leon­ard said, “but it didn’t hurt a bit. I knew I had been hit, of course, but I couldn’t tell how hard.” Winter and summer are-all alike to Leonard, with the exception that in hot weather he occasionally iuf- fers from nose bleed. “I never feel cold in winter, even though I run around most of the time without an overcoat," he said. "Several times last winter I was out for long periods with no coat and my sleeves rolled up. I didn’t get cold, either.” Leonard experienced the electrio shock, which is believed to be the cause of his ailment, about two years ago. He said that Eritilo he and a companion were in a factory building that had been damaged by fire he touched some wires that had been exposed when a piece of ma­chinery was moved from the burn­ing building. ’!The wires carried 220 volts,” Leonard said."Soon after the shock, I discov­ered I had little or no sense of feel­ing when my school teacher pinched me one day. After he had pinched me two or three times, the teacher asked me if I were *walking around dead.’ I told him I was not aware that he had pinched me."Leonard said he had been making regular trips to the hospital several: years for a checkup on a heart ail­ ment he has had since childhood. He said physicians have told him his heart condition is1 not serious and that it probably will disappear after .a few years. IMPROVED __ UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S K U s s m BkHa » De ^yW SuPu-.?- (Released by Westernlfewspaper Unions Croclieted Doilies in Lasting Loveliness Lesson for August 3 permission. ______ FAUL PREACHES FAITH IN CHRIST LESSON TEXT—Romans 3:21-31: S:L *•GOLDEN TEXT—As It Is written. The lust shall Uve by faith.—Romans 1:17. Justification by faith is a doctrine which lies at the very heart of the gospel. It provides the answer to man’s age-old question, “What must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:30). “This was a question, with which Paul had himself grappled, and for years he had sought salvation in the traditional • Jewish way. Then one day he met Christ and he under­went a spiritual transformation through faith in Him, apart from the works of the law. Because of that experience, and because of tiie divine revelations made , to him, he was able to show others how to be saved and how to live a life of vic­tory. Among the writers of the New Testament it is Paul who ^ most clearly sets forth the doctrine _ of justification by faith, a doctrine which has brought comfort of soul to multitudes, and the conscious­ness of sins forgiven.” (Olmstead). I. How Can God. Be Just-and Justify Sinners? (Rom. 3:21-31).; The portion, of Romans just pre­ ceding our lesson is devoted to a devastating treatment of man’s sin­ fulness, bringing him face to face with the question, “What can. I do about it?” The answer has a’hope- Iess ring to it. 1. Man has no righteousness of his own, and cannot by any of his own works save himself. “He.has tried many ways, in eveiy age/but no human being, or groups of men or women, have ever devised any scheme, have ever conceived of any ritual, have ever established any re­ ligion by their own efforts, through which peace with God has been found and a sinner has been en­ abled to stand before a holy God without condemnation. Man being helpless, God now intervenes" (Wil­bur M. Smith). . 2. Christ paid the penalty for man’s sin by His own blood. How clearly verse 25 declares the sacri­ficial death of Christ to provide a covering of blood (the real meaning of “propitiatien”) which will enable a just God to forgive the sinner that believes in Christ (V. 22). Why not receive it in all its grace and power, not trying to explain it away or to evade its requirements? Why at­tempt to provide some other means of salvation when we Imow that "without the shedding of blood is no remission” of sin (Heb. 9:22)? 3. Man receives salvation by grace through faith, apart from works. Man can only.be “justified freely by his ..grace” (v. 24). It is for “them that believe” (v. 22 ), it is “through faith” (w. 25, 26) and, note with care,, “man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law” (v. 28). Thus God establishes the law (v. 31) and yet becomes the righteous justifier of a repentant be­lieving sinner. H. What Happens When a Man Is Justified? (Rom. 5:1, 2). These verses sound like the uplift­ing music of a mighty organ, with the celestial choirs joining into sing. “Therefore being justified by foith, we have” — What? Oh many pre- cious possessions, three of which are here mentioned, I. “Peace With God.” “Through our Lord Jesus Christ”the barrier of sin with all its mali­cious enmity has been broken down and .the believer is at peace with God. What could be more wonder­ful than thus to be realty "in tune with- the infinite”? That is some­thing, by the way, which can only be true of the believer, one who has both peace with God and the peace of God flooding his soul. Every sin­ner who covets that experience may have it—now—by faith in Christ. 2. !Standing in Grace. “To stand in grace is to occupy the position wherein love is able to carry out its desires. To stand in grace is to come into such relation­ ship with the Lord that He may do that thing that is in His heart, the thing which His love prompts. To stand in favor is to be unafraid. It is to be able to pass into the presence of One of whom we are unafraid, and know that there will be welcome; It is to know that to come into the pres­ence of this. One is to receive, not necessarily a gift, but love, and of Himself, in a communion which is unbroken and perfect” <G. CmnpbeU Morgan). 3. Rejoicing in Hope. The world is sorrowfiil for it has lost hope, but the believer rejoices "in hope of the glory of God" (v. 2). The Christian has the forward look. His future is as bright as the promises of God. He knows that he will one day see the glory of'God 'revealed in all His holiness, power, love aixi grace. Even- now the be­liever has that hope in his'heart, and lives a rejoicing, life (or should do so!). It’s a great thing to be saved!

PARTON (Consolidated Feature*—WNV Service.) VTEW YOBk.-Dr. Minnie L. Maf- fett, who, as president of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women’s Clubs, is the A m tte tWom tn leB der °f For A athoritym Tomorrow '# Era about 75,000 career wom­en in Amer­ ica, insists women doingon equal pay for men’s jobs, and she also assesses women with heavy responsibility for what lies ahead. "Women must take leadership in insisting on a new economic world order,” says Dr. Mafiett.That might seem like a lot of bother for the women,' what with getting the children 6ff to camp and this and that, but Dr. Maffett tells them sternly they must face it, “if we want women to have authority in the world of tomorrow.” Her ob­servations were addressed to the biennial meeting Cf the above fed­eration at Los Angeles. The silver-haired, bine-eyed, pink-cheeked Dr. Maffett, is, like many contenders for equal­ity and authority for women, emphatically feminine. Pre­meditated or not, it’s a good technique which the early-day suffragists knew and practiced diligently. She lives in Dallas, Texas, where she has long been a distinguished physician and surgeon, a member of the col­ lege of medicine of Baylor uni­versity, on the staff of the three biggest hospitals In Dallas, and a director of the department of health education of Southern Methodist university. Descendant of a family which went to Texas in 1834, Dr. Maffett took her academic and medical de­grees at the University of Texas. She was elected president of the federation in 1939. She rallies wom­en to intelligent social effort under the slogan “business women in a democracy.” She is a dynamo of energy, flying everywhere—she’s an avi­ation fan—organizing and agi­tating for women and their work and their readiness for a new economic and cultural show­down after the war. Women certainly do like to get thing! ship-shape. Perhaps they rate a trial workout, considering the general state of masculine un­tidiness and confusion now pre­ vailing. •---- DB. ABTHTO UPHAM POPE, art connoisseur and leading world authority on Iranian art, heads the "Committee for National Oat to Give War wmch now, ToAdolfH itlerfs after months of research, makesknown it has discovered and identified Hit­ler’s "secret” weapon. As Dr. Pope explains it, the device is the precise scientific mastery of impel­ling scientific forces by which you can make men think and act as you want them to. One of the last books of the late Jacques Futrelle, who went down on the Titanic, was “The Thinking Ma­chine.” It was about an old pro­ fessor who discovered what Dr. Pope’s committee thinks it has now learned. He finally dominated the world. The theme of the bookwas that any man who masters certain definite psychological formulas, and employs them diligently, will own and operate mankind. That is exactly what the Germans have been doing, according to the committee, just now issuing a 155- page brochure ^escribing its re­ search and its findings. - The committee, which began work - last July, includes many of the lead­ing social scientists and psycholo­gists of the United States. It deliv­ers not only a detailed description of the German psychological mass- pressure techniques, but it con­cludes that we have abundant knowledge and skills with which to meet it But it will be no hit-or-miss job of agitating. It will be a cam­ paign of psychological warfare as carefully contrived as an air battle. Mt. Pope, a native of Phoenix, R. I., was graduated from Brown university. He has long been a dis­tinguished figure in the world of both art and philosophy—but always on John Buskin's terms: “Fine art is that in which the head, the heart and the hand go together.” We saw Dr. Pope occasionally when he was professor of philoso­phy at the University of California; and again, at the Foyot restaurant in Paris in 1923, fired up with Persian art and headed toward Teheran, to sink many years and much brilliant scholarship in that area. After a round-trip to about 3000 B. C., he landed in London in 1939 with the noblest exhibition of Persian art ever assembled.Last year, with his collection greatly augmented, he staged a memorable exhibition in New York, at the old Union League club. ‘Secret’ Weapon Navy Recrmts Get Thorpugli Training America’s “first line of defense,” the navy, takes very seriously to the business of training its men.

I Enchanting Party Frocks of All-White for Evening Wear By CHERlE NICHOLAS D O YOU believe in the magic of fairy wands? Unless it be at the touch of a fairy wand how could such visions of loveliness as the trio pictured ever come into being? It is just such lacy, beguiling sheer and lovely gowns as these that women who yearn for pretty clothes envision in their dreams of “what to wear,” when ■ they go dancing on a gay summer night. So be as sentimental, as blithely romantic as you will in choosing your midsummer night festive gowns, keeping in mind that fashion particularly favors exquisitely frag­ ile sheer media this season, with the emphasis definitely on all white for evening wear. The all-white lace dress as pic­ tured to the left is making its ap­ pearance again and again on best- dressed women who are attending fashionable night clubs or formal events at important summer resort hotels. It adds to the lure of this lace that it is American made. It is as exquisite and beautiful as it Is surprisingly inexpensive. Crisp, white and delicate, the new laces make you look your prettiest with their lure and charm. The dress has its own rayon taffeta slip.The South American influence , is very prominent in the white cotton lace evening gown shown centered in the group. The four flounces on the skirt are reminiscent of the Spanish dancer’s costume. The deep capelike collar opens at the back. With the return of the "gra­cious lady” period, the call for handsome lace such as fashions this distinguished frock is outstanding. Nothing in the way of sheer cottons surpasses organdy and when it is elaborately eyeleted as is the or­ gandy used for the “picture” gown on the fair socialite portrayed here,, the effect is most eye-appealing. The introduction of black jersey in the bodice is in keeping with the present trend. This touch of black gives a sophisticated look to an otherwise airy, fairy ingenue frock. The wing-sleeved bolero and the very full over-skirt effect are high- style details.This matter of sheer airy-fairy fabrics for the party dress carries all the way through the program of the "pretty” frocks fashion so defi­ nitely favored this season. Often yards and yards of billowy tulles or stiffened chiffon or thinnest of marquisette go to make up the full skirt- with its quaint, little fitted bodice.A new vogue this season is that of enormous florals handpainted on either most diaphanous filmy white sheers or these flower paintings are done on white jersey likewise white sharkskin in dazzling color glory. Most of the new white dresses of rayon jersey (with a dull finish) or rayon crepe are made very simply. They are, however, given a look of distinction and importance by in­triguing touches such as gold kid trimmings, gold or jeweled buttons, girdles with an enrichment of jewel embroidery. Watch buttons! They promise to be as important as jewelry in the evening mode, and are-used con­spicuously so as to call attention to their, intricate design. Huge flower buttons add infinite charm to the otherwise all-white frock. Immense mother-of-pearl buttons are fashion highlights. Some of the pearl but­tons are made up with a filigree design worked out in gold or silver. You can get buttons that snap on and off and thus change the entire aspect and color scheme at will.(Released bjr Western Newspaper Union.)

Whitman—WNU Service.) Leaky BrIek Veneer QUESTION: During heavy rains water seeps through my brick j veneer house at the joint between the sill and the top of the founda­tions. What kind of caulking com­ pounds can’ I use to close the leak?Answer: That condition is fairly common with brick veneer houses. Water works through the bricks and the mortar joints and runs down into the space between, the veneer and the sheathing, which is usually about an inch wide. As the sheathing is covered with waterproof paper, the water that collects in the bottom of the space can escape only through the joints along the sill. These joints can be closed with- caulking com­ pound, which should be forced in with a. caulking gun. A better reme­dy is to drill a series of holes through the mortar joints in the low­ est course of bricks, so that water can drain off to the outside. These holes can be made with a quarter- inch rose drill. Maps on a WallQuestion: I have removed the pa­per from the walls of a small room, and am going to cover them with maps. Should the walls be sized? And can I use regular wallpaper paste? Answer: Yes; size the walls and put on the maps by the same method as wallpaper. Get the best grade of wallpaper paste that you can find. Spread the maps on the floor for pasting. In sticking them on, begin at the top edge and roll the maps downward so that all air will be excluded. If you find that bubbles of air have been caught, use a rubber roller of the kind meant for mounting photographs. If the bubbles will not roll out, puncture the paper with a needle; the air will escape, and when the paper is pressed down, the hole will disap­pear. House ColorsQuestion: The lower half of my house is imitation red brick, the up­per half shingle stained dark brown, and the roof is green shingles. In repainting, what color would you suggest for the shingles that will blend with the red lower halt and the green roof?Answer: My choice for the shin­gles would be either white, or white with a cast of cream or warm gray. You will probably have to use a first coat of aluminum paint to keep the brown stain from bleeding through. For a suggestion, go around your neighborhood to notice the colors that houses are painted, not forget­ting the colors of trim, to see which combinations you prefer. Stopping Overhead Noise Question; The kitchen of the up­stairs apartment is directly over our bedroom, and we hear every sound. Can our ceiling be made sound-proof so that we can sleep?Answer: It. cannot be made en­tirely sound-proof, but the noise can be greatly cut down. Line your ceil­ ing with insulating board. On that put 2 by 2 strips of wood to sup­ port a second layer of insulating board. Pieces of thick felt should be put-under'all nail-heads. Another method would be to put a frame­ work of 2 by 4s under your present ceiling, but not touching it, support­ ing a layer of insulating board. The framework can be supported on the side walls. Economy in ConstructionQuestion: We are thinking of build­ing a six-room house, but do not know whether it should be one story or two. Which would be cheaper to build and to heat?Answer: In house construction it is considered that the price is least when the roof that covers the rooms is smallest This means that a two- story house should be less expen­sive than a house in which all the rooms are spread out on one floor. Another principle is that a square or rectangular house costs less to build than one with extensions or a more complicated outline. Also, the more compact the house, the less should be the heating cost. Stiffening a Bug Question: A 9 by 12 foot rug, 10 years .old, is in good condition ex­cept that it is limp. How can it be stiffened?Answer: Turn it over, and apply a coat of shellac to.the back. The shellac should not be applied so thickly that it will soak through to the front. Kerosene StainQuestion: A kerosene stove was tipped over on an Axminster rug and the oil made a large stain. What will take it out? Answer: You can use clear gaso­line. Take the rug outdoors, lay it where there is no vegetation- to be harmed, and pour gasoline through the stain. Do not attempt to do this indoors because of the great fire risk. Loose VeneerQuestion: Water that dripped on a buffet raised'the veneer top from one edge toward the center. How can this damage be repaired?Answer: Using.a knife with a long and thin blade, such as a table knife, work glue as deeply as possi­ble into the space under the veneer. Then press the veneer bade into position and hold it there with heavy weights until the glue has dried. The job is rather tricky,- and if the buf­ fet is valuable, it would be better to have the repair made by a cabi­ net maker. J Iumh. Q k a m le A d SANDWICHES THAT REALLY TEMPT(See Recipes Below) BUFFET SUPPERS If there’s one season of the year when you like to feel really free from Ute heat of the kitchen, then summer’s that season.

Stack and cover top and sides with soft cream cheese piled like frost­ing. Garnish with thin radish slices and dust with chopped chives. Chill in the refrigerator several hours be­fore serving.

Add rich milk or cream to make a thick paste. Beat cheese and cream un­til'evenly mixed and of good con­sistency for spreading.

B.C., JULT 30.1941. A Tip to Youth mA CampnfQneenu Tl you want to be a B.M.O.C. (Big Man on Campus) or a Campus Queen stay away Irom liquor. Not only young people's societies but an increasing number of college leaders, movie stars, society lead­ers, health columnists, and etiquette experts are giving such advice to youth. “You can’t be the conquering quarterback in Saturday’s game and have spent Friday night in a beer barrel” is the theme pre­sented by college units of the Youth’s Temper­ance Council, the youth division of W.C.T.U. “In fact the choice isn’t even left up to you. The men that the coaches se­lect for their teams are not those with muscles in their right arms trained to hoist beer steins.” Girls particularly are told to main­ tain mental alertness and physical attractiveness by complete absti­nence from liquor. One effective quotation is from a “Tips to the Teens” column in a current national magazine: "A girl is never so attractive after she’s had something to drink as she was before. After a drink or two your hair sort of slips, like a wig.It gets tired and looks it. Your eyes, supposed to shine like stars, are fixed and glassy, more like marbles. It all adds up to this:You are an at­ tractive girl or you wouldn’t be out on parties, self less so?” "Or, » Bar-Flyt" Why make your- Without Controls Those hidden unsocial impulses which lurk near the surface in ev­ery man are generally kept locked in a secret room, behind the closed door of self-control. Alcohol is the key which unlocks that door, ac­cording to Bertha Bachel Palmer, scientific temperance education di­rector for the W.C.T.U. Whatever is in that room stalks out—cruel im­ pulses, .amorous or ugly emotions. Flimsy Excuses! “Have Another?” Smoothest excuse-makers for liq­uor are the “traffic,” people who make profits out of peddling a nar­cotic, and the addicts, people who hurt themselves and others by drinking a narcotic. Anyone who has had anything to do with a drunkard—or a day-after* day "social drink­er”—knows that he’s ^ full of ex­cuses as be is of rum.The liquor traf­ fic is that way too, the W.C.T.TJ. points out. When a business means money in a man’s pocket, he’ll find excuses, whether it’s for liquor, slot machines, or naughty pictures. Mr. Ordinary Citizen usually de­cides though that excuses aren’t worth much when they are stacked up against the considered verdict of experts, whose only interest is man­ kind’s betterment and not profits.Morgan Cloud, a captain of the medical corps of the U. S. Army, published a book in 1934 to give an objective report on liquor. He quot­ed eminent opinion as follows:DR. CHARLES W. MAYO: Th* only legitimate use of alcohol is in the arts and sciences. MARSHAL JOFFRE: Alcohol, by diminishing the moral and ma­terial strength of the army; is a crime against national defense in the face of the enemy. DR. RICHARD C. CABOT: Medi­cally and socially the case against alcohol is just as clear as the case against opium. DR. HOWARD A. KELLY: There is no disease in the world for which i alcohol is a cure.It does undenia­bly cause thou­sands of cases of disease. HORSELY AND STLRGE: Alco­hol weakens the heart, lowers re­sistance to dis­ease, shortens life, impairs one’s judgment, reduces one’s earning power, is harmful even in the small­est dose, delays and prevents diges­ tion, is a poison, has become obso­lete as a remedy, kills everything that lives, preserves everything that is dead. SHAKESPEARE: O thou invinci­ble spirit of wine, if thou hast no other name to be known by, let us call thee devil.
